Victory can mend all the rifts, but on the contrary, it is necessary to taste many unimaginable bitter fruits.

Zhai Zhe sits in Jinan Mansion, and there are countless people in various prefectures and counties in Shandong. The Ming army only needed to send a few guerrilla generals to go once, and the land of Qilu returned to the Ming Dynasty.

Except for a few squires who completely tied their net worth to the Tartars, famous people from all over the world squeezed to Jinan desperately, just hoping to meet the regent and get a few favors.

Zhai Zhe ordered Che Feng and Li Dingguo to be the vanguard, crossed the Yellow River, and the Ming army officially entered the land of Gyeonggi. Xiao Zhiyan, Xu Yiyang, and Jin Shenghuan remained in Henan, and only two cavalry troops were ordered to join the Northern Expedition.

More than 10,000 Ming cavalry attacked in the direction of Dezhou, and then Feng Qin, Li Zhi'an, Yuan Qizhou and Yan Yingyuan and other strong soldiers crossed the river in turn. The Ming army was 100,000, with thick armor and sufficient food, and high morale.

The army camped on the north bank of the Yellow River, and Zhai Zhe ordered the generals in the army to discuss matters.

The military order was transmitted, and after three drums, the generals in the battalion gathered the big tent.

Feng Qinli was in power, Li Zhi'an and Li Laiheng stood in the second seat, followed by Che Feng, Yan Yingyuan, Yuan Qizhou and other generals, although they were all general soldiers, but there were also successions

The generals solemnized the half-pillar of incense, and Fang Jin wore a sword to escort Zhai Zhe into the big tent and took the main seat.

"See the Lord Regent," the roars of the generals stirred the curtain of the Great Tent.

Zhai Zhe waved his hand, he took a deep breath, "All the generals are exempt, some of you have served by my side from the grassland, some have raised troops from Jiangnan with my anti-shaving order, and there are also rebels who fought against the Tartars." Together with all of you, this king has gone through hard work and finally turned things around. Now that the Jingshi is in front of him, this king wants to defeat Dolgon outside the Jingshi City and restore the old days of the Ming Dynasty. ”

He took off his sword, which was a steel sword specially made for the regent by the Hu family's weapons workshop, lighter than the waist knife given to him by Lu Xiangsheng, but sharper than the waist knife.

"Listen to orders"

"The Last Will Be"

"This king has given you this sword, and ordered you to take charge of the war of the army going north, and those who violate military orders in the army, regardless of their official position, will be killed with this sword."

A trace of excitement flashed in Feng Qin's eyes, and he arched his hand and said, "The last general will obey the order"

He took a few steps forward, took the long sword from Zhai Zhe's hand, and gave a deep salute.

"General Feng, please take a seat" Zhai Zhe gave up the main seat, "From this moment on, this king will only listen in the tent, and everything in the army will be handed over to General Feng."

The big tent was silent, and the generals looked at Feng Qin's eyes full of envy, from this moment on, the argument between Feng Qin and Zuo Ruo The first person in the Ming army can be put to rest.

Feng Qin's body stagnated for a moment, and he raised his feet and walked up to the main seat.

Zhai Zhe stepped aside, and Fang Jin moved a chair over and let the regent sit on the left side of the main seat.

Feng Qin's eyes no longer looked at Zhai Zhe, his thin body sank into the smooth tiger skin of the main seat, and the general asked about the military situation: "Che Feng, you have crossed the river for three days, what is the current situation of fighting with the Tartars?" ”

As soon as the Che Feng led his troops to the north of the city of Dezhou, he said: "The Tartar cavalry has excellent riding skills and is proficient in cavalry and archery, most of them are Mongols from Modong, and our cavalry fights with the Tartars, and suffers a lot. The last general did not dare to open the battle line, and stopped his pace in the north of Texas. ”

Feng Qin waved his hand and ordered him to retreat, and said: "The strength of the Tartars is not much different from ours, and there are many cavalry, if my army takes care of the left and right, it may not be able to attack the city of Beijing in a month." I decided to order the army to assemble and go north, first attack Tianjin Sanwei, order the water division to transport supplies by sea, and then choose an opportunity from Tianjin to attack the Beijing division. ”

Feng Qin still adopts a steady strategy, swinging his own advantages to the extreme, and his tactics are natural, and he can't find a single flaw.

Zhai Zhe's initial idea was different from Feng Qin's, his plan was to go directly north, break Baoding, and approach Beijing in a straight line, and could not tolerate Dolgon not fighting him in a decisive battle. But since he said that he would hand over the command of the battlefield to Feng Qin, he could not express his opposition.

Under the city of Huai'an, he understood that his control of the battlefield was far less than that of Fengqin, so he decided not to do anything that made it difficult for him.

Military orders are issued in an orderly manner.

"Che Feng, Li Dingguo listens to orders"

The two generals of the "last general" responded to the call. Although Li Dingguo is a general, his status in this big tent is really not worth mentioning. There are factions in the army, but the real status is still fought on the battlefield.

"The two of you lead the cavalry of your headquarters to advance along the east bank of the canal, clear the scouts along the way, and march sixty miles a day, without too much speed or delay the military aircraft."

"Obedience"

"Yuan Qizhou, Yan Yingyuan"

"The Last Will Be"

"The two of you lead the soldiers and horses of your headquarters to move forward with the cavalry, and follow the cavalry for about ten miles."

The military orders are detailed to the degree of march of each army and horses, and where to camp. Traveling along the east side of the canal can limit the harassment of the Qing cavalry along the way

Compared with Feng Qin's calmness and monotony that have remained unchanged for many years, Zhai Zhe actually appreciates Zuo Ruo's wind and fire more. But reason told him that Feng Qin was the most suitable general under his command. Not only because Feng Qin was brought up by him, but also because Feng Qin's tactics can wield the power of firearms.

Zuo Ruo fights strong with weakness, momentum is like a rainbow, and every battle is exciting. But the real showdown on the battlefield is far less than the attendance that makes the opponent more headaches. can use his advantages to the extreme, this is the real handsome.

The next day, the army was launched, and the regent's personal guards and cavalry accompanied the Fengqin Chinese army.

Zhai Zhe originally wanted to march with the cavalry, but Feng Qin resolutely refused to allow it, and did not dare to put Zhai Zhe in danger.

Some of the bold Mongol scouts came to the west bank of the canal, across the river from the Ming army, and ordered the armies not to wait and see, but to follow the cavalry.

The 120,000 army is like a chain ball that keeps tumbling forward, making it impossible to catch a flaw.

Dongguang, Nanpi, Cangzhou, Qingxian, and the counties along the canal are all free of soldiers.

Five days later, the 120,000 troops of the Ming army entered Tianjin Wei, and Dolgon had personally led 100,000 horses from the Manchurian and Han dynasties to block Wuqing, the only way to Beijing.

The Ming army did not take a break and continued to move north, and on the first day, Che Feng met the crazy onslaught of the Mongol cavalry in Yangshu.

The two teams of cavalry fought for half an hour, and it was not until Yuan Qizhou and Yan Yingyuan led their troops to come to the aid that the Modong Mongolian cavalry retreated.

When Zhai Zhe and Feng Qin came to the battlefield, there were corpses of feathers, arrows, horses and corpses everywhere, and the Han cavalry was injured countless times.

Che Feng came to pay his respects, and he had palpitations: "The Mongols have excellent riding skills and skilled tactics, if General Li does not die today, he will fight to the death, I am afraid that the losses will be even heavier." ”

Zhai Zhe raised a clairvoyant mirror to look into the distance, the Mongols did not go far, and saw a black cavalry moving in the northern field from a distance. The scouts ran wildly with their banners, and Dolgon's banner was fierce.

"This is the battlefield"

Feng Qin looked to the north, and there was an empty plain in front of him, dotted with a few small rivers and a few villages.

"It's a good place here"
