Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Because Yinhe regarded Yinxi as his biggest potential opponent, he deliberately disobeyed Kangxi's original order and placed Yinxi in Zhangde-Daming-Dongchang-Jinan, the farthest and southernmost Zhangde city of the Xia defense line from southwest to northeast, and as a result, Yinxi only learned the news of the sudden change in the battle situation in the early morning of the 14th. At this time, the Qing army in Dongchang had crossed the canal in Linqing, and the Qing army in Daimyo and Jinan had also fled one after another, leaving only the Qing army of Zhangde still standing out in front of the Xia army.

Of course, Yinxi, who heard the bad news for the first time, hated it so much, but he couldn't blame others, not to mention that Yinhe had sent someone to inform him, even if he didn't announce it, what could he do, would Yinhe still have a chance to rush to Yinhe to scold?

Of course, the answer is no, not only can Yinzhen not blame Yinhe for fleeing first regardless of the affection of his compatriots, but also thanks to him for not throwing himself as a bait to attract Xia Jun in Zhangde, and even in addition to Yinzhen, he also has to remember Yinzhen and Yinyu's good, after all, as soon as they received Yinzhen's order, they immediately sent a fast horse to notify him, but the time was a little late.

But it is precisely because it is half a day late that Yinxi is now in an extremely embarrassing state. Run, the Xia army in front of him probably already knows that the battle situation has taken a turn, don't run, once the Xia army surrounds him from all directions, it will be a dead end. What to do? The helpless Yinxiang could only immediately notify Yinxiang in the camp outside the city and ask him to come back and get an idea.

Yinxiang's camp is ten miles outside Anyang City, and from this point of view, the configuration of the Zhangde camp is different from other places - the action of the Dongchang camp can be determined by the words of Yinyu, the prince; Yinzhi can also use his identity as a brother to suppress and persuade the officials of Eastern Province in Jinan City; Even if there are two elder brothers in the Daimyo camp, they are all staying in the same city, and it is convenient to discuss things, and the artillery forts and forts outside the city are lost; Only the two elder brothers on Zhangde's side who don't like each other are in charge of each other, and they can only act in unison after discussing the ugliness.

Of course, Yinxiang can also throw away the tail of the gecko on the spot in Yinxiang, but the Zhangde battalion is only 70,000 people, more than half of which are in Shilipu, and after leaving Yinxiang, can he escape the pursuit of the Xia army with the troops in his hand, and flee all the way back to Beijing or Liaodong, Yinxi really does not have this confidence.

was thinking wildly, Yinxiang, who heard the news, rushed in angrily: "What's the matter? ”

"The boss escaped, and the fourth and fourteenth also slipped away early in the morning." Yinxi tried to make a calm appearance, but the slightly fluctuating tone of voice revealed the panic in his heart. "It is estimated that the third child will not defend in Jinan, and now we are left alone in Zhangde, what should we do? Starling, I listen to you. ”

"What to do? Cold! Yinxiang burst into a foul mouth. They are all alone, how can Tmd escape? ”

Yin Yu sighed: "If you don't run, then you can only be loyal and filial to the Qing Dynasty and the emperor." ”

Yinxiang squinted his eyes and thought for a long time, then he looked up at Yinxi: "Starling, do you know everyone below?" ”

"Nope." Yin Yu replied. "The messenger was brought directly, and no one knows about it except those in my yamen."

"Feng Ya, no one can go out." Yinxiang said this, Yinxi took it as a matter of course, and after some arrangement, Yinxiang cautiously responded to Yinxi's tentative words just now. "Starling, there are only two ways to go now. The first is to withdraw, and the second is to stay. Needless to say, if you stay, you have to be a loyal minister, and even if you fight a soldier, you must not surrender. As for running. Yinxiang paused, and let Yinxiang want to pinch his neck and let him speak. One is to be fast, decide to go, and leave immediately; The second is not to bring too many people, at most a few guards and Darlo and their deputy commanders, and the others don't need to be notified, just let them fend for themselves. But. "Yinxiang suddenly took a turn." However, if you and I both run, this road army will definitely be finished, and it may not be able to drag the Xia army in front of you for a few days. If Xia Jun is allowed to free up his hands to pursue with confidence, the eldest and fourth brother may not be able to smoothly protect the last bit of our family wealth in the Qing Dynasty and take them out of the customs. ”

The choice was handed back to Yinxi's hands, whether to sacrifice himself to save the Qing court's last chance to turn over, or to harm others and not benefit himself, this difficult choice set off a storm in Yinxi's mind.

After a cold time of half a pillar of incense, Yin Yu asked dryly: "Xia Jun is afraid that there is not only an army in front of Zhangde, right?" ”

Although the answer was not asked, these words have made Yinxi's choice clear, and in this regard, Yinxiang repaid a burst of hysterical laughter: "Okay, great, the Qing Dynasty is not dead to call it a strange thing." ”

Yinxiang immediately stretched out his hand to stop Yinxi's defense: "Starling, there is no need to say anything, everyone has their own ambitions, I don't force you, not to mention that if you can escape, you can continue to keep the Qing Dynasty and fight against the sea." ”

Seeing that Yinxiang said everything he wanted to say, Yinxiang was a little embarrassed and persuaded: "Old Thirteen, don't be reckless??????"

Yinxiang still maintained a strange smile on his face, but said in his mouth: "Starling, you don't have to say more, I understand, but there are always people to sacrifice, let me be this filial son and loyal minister." ”

Speaking of this, Yinxiang urged: "Don't say more, without further ado, now I will accompany the starling to the Shilipu camp to inspect, starling, let your people bring more grain, water and horses, and let's go our separate ways when we go out of the city." ”

Yin Xi was busy with orders, and soon the relevant people and horses were ready.

So Yinxiang and Yinxi went out of the south gate of Anyang together, just three miles out of the city, Yinxiang turned the direction and went to Taihang Mountain, he wanted to escape into Taihang first, and then go north along the mountain road to avoid the possible pursuit and arrest of the Xia army.

"Starling, don't leave it at that." On horseback, the tearful Yinxiang arched his hand at Yinxi's back, this is really goodbye, the grievances of the past are insignificant at the moment, the building will collapse, there is no egg under the nest, let it disappear in the past. "Let's go," Yinxiang, wiping away his tears, ordered the guards behind him. "Go to the ten-mile camp!"

Returning to the Shilipu camp, Yinxi immediately ordered the unaware Manchu and Han generals: "The military situation has changed, each department only brings food, horses, weapons and gunpowder, and the rest will be burned, let's go back to Anyang??????"

Under the supervision of Yinxiang, a group of Qing troops quickly withdrew to Zhangde Fucheng, and before the Xia army Tangyin garrison reacted, the Qing army had safely withdrawn into Anyang.

"Dog Tartar, how can you run so fast like a rabbit." Looking at the black smoke rising from the camp of the Qing Army in the distance, Chen Yu, the commander of the first division of the Tiger Ben Army, who was hurrying to intercept, broke the horsewhip in his hand angrily, and ordered in a somewhat angry manner. "Catch up, don't let Jianyu escape like this."

Chen Yu was annoyed that he had lost a big fish, and the outpost probed Malay to report: "My lord, the Qing army has withdrawn into Anyang City." ”

"What?" Chen Yu's eyes lit up. "Good fellow, there is a way in heaven that you don't take, and hell has no door to cast! When someone came, he immediately reported to the commander of the capital, and the Qing army fled into Anyang, with the intention of holding the city and defending it??????"

Seeing that Yuan Yuan arrived and was busy building a camp under the city, Yinxiang, who was standing on the top of the city and watching Yiqiē, smiled coldly: "Anyang Ancient Yindu, the city wall is solid, Benbeizi wants to see how many lives Hai Reverse is going to use to fill it." ”

After that, Yinxiang ordered: "Order Zhangde Mansion and Anyang County to immediately cooperate with Guide and Weihui to organize the men in the city into an army, thinking that they are auxiliary troops, and the rest of the old and weak women and children will be a waste of food if they stay, and they will all be driven out of the city by me." ”

Then Yinxiang continued to order: "Immediately send someone to Shunde Mansion to inform the Hebei political envoy Lord Yide, and ask him to rush 30,000 Dan military rations to Anyang before the 16th, and similarly, the Hebei Governor of Guangping Mansion, Lord Mukeatu, also asked him to transport 30,000 stones to Zhangde within three days, and told the two adults that Benbeizi only needs food, and the rest is not asked." ”

As soon as the guards who received the order retreated, Yinxiang said: "Starting today, the grain station must receive the warrant of Ben Beizi before it is allowed to allocate grain and grass for each battalion. ”

From Yinxiang's series of orders, the generals sensed great unease, and immediately the left wing commander of the internal firearms battalion who was close to Yinxiang and the deputy commander of Manchuria with the yellow flag asked: "Thirteenth elder brother, what's going on?" What about the eighth elder brother? ”

"Eighth Elder Brother has been ordered to return to Beijing." Yinxiang was quietly flustered. "Why, if the starling brother is not here, can't Ben Beizi be the master?" Saying that, Yinxiang looked at Darlow with a cold gaze, and snorted coldly in his mouth. "Or rather, what Ben Beizi decides is to ask you to nod as a minion."

Darlow was stunned, so he had to kneel down and plead for his sin: "The slave is unconscious, please ask the thirteenth elder brother to forgive ??????"

Even Darlow, the highest-ranking general, was deflated, and the Manchu generals present dared to disobey Yinxiang's orders, so they had to act according to his wishes. Just as the unwitting Qing army in Anyang City was being urged by Yinxiang to jump the chickens and dogs, Xia Yu, the commander of the Xia army, was also observing the city defense of Anyang at close range.

"Zhangde Mansion City is a famous fortified city, and the Qing army has all entered the city, and it is difficult to use 70,000 people to fight 70,000 people."

"Then surround but not fight." Xia Yu responded to the words of the marching Sima. "The armies in the east have already pursued the fleeing Qing army one after another, and the enemy in Anyang has no reinforcements at all, once the army completes the pursuit, it will return to the division." Xia Yu pointed to the city of Zhangdefu. "Yinxi and Yinxiang should know that they have no way out, so they will resist stubbornly."

"It's just that our army is 70,000 and the enemy is 70,000, and if you besiege the city, I'm afraid it will be insufficient."

"Then hurry up and tell the Holy Driver, and ask the Holy Lord to transfer troops from a certain wealthy road." Xia Yu made a decision. "The siege of the city will run out of food, come and tell Chen Yu that Shunde must be taken immediately, and not a grain of grain will flow into Anyang." Subsequently, Xia Yu added. "Order all divisions to dig trenches around the city as soon as the camp is built, and then send people to find a way to tell the Qing army that our army has taken Beijing and captured Kangxi alive???????"
