Prince Su Haoge didn't expect Zhou Ze, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, to be so generous, not only did he not complain that he was shrinking in Xi'an, but he also gave an extra 50,000 stone on top of his request for 50,000 stone grain.

Therefore, Prince Su Haoge had a good impression of Zhou Ze.

Even, Hauge directly said that Zhou Ze deserved to be the person that Luck Dehun fancied and was a good minion.

Even though Hauge knew that Zhou Ze was promoted by Dolgon, he didn't feel that Zhou Ze was also an abandoned son thrown by Zilharang, and he felt a sense of sympathy for Zhou Ze.

Therefore, Haoge did not interfere with Zhou Ze's deployment in the rear, so that Zhou Ze could rest assured that he would conquer Sichuan and complete the will given to him by Zhu Youzhen.

Li Yongxing, the commander of the forward battalion under Zhou Ze, had already led the infantry equipped with 3,000 Chongzhen 19-style flintlock pistols, 50 infantry light field guns and 50 infantry heavy field guns, as well as 500 cavalry, to form a forward battalion and first went to Chaotian Pass in Sichuan.

Although the green battalion under Zhou Ze's command is mostly recruits, most of the forward battalions are Jinyi secretly sighing, and these Jinyi guard spies are all officers and soldiers with strong comprehensive combat ability selected from the Guards before, so their combat effectiveness is not weak.

As soon as they arrived at Chaotian Pass, 50 heavy infantry field 16-pound guns began to bombard Chaotian Pass.

Zhang Xianzhong's main forces are all in Chengdu and eastern Sichuan and southern Sichuan, so the strength of the western army in northern Sichuan is relatively weak, and as soon as the city gate of Chaotian Pass was collapsed, the forward battalion successfully took Chaotian Pass and officially stepped into Sichuan.

At this time, Zhou Ze had personally led a total of 60,000 people from the guard battalion and infantry battalion, as well as 30,000 horses from He Zhen's department.

And Li Yongxing led the forward battalion to capture Quang Ninh again.

And in order to cause a sensation to Zhang Xianzhong's Onishi regime, the forward battalion also burned fire everywhere, and suddenly the entire northern Sichuan was full of wolf smoke.

Zhou Ze's forward battalion relied on most of the brocade guards and sharp firearms, plus Zhang Xianzhong's poor guards in northern Sichuan, so he was invincible along the way, and then occupied Zhaohua, and finally broke the gateway to northern Sichuan - Jianmen Pass!

After the Jianmen Pass was also lost, it naturally caused a greater sensation to the Onishi regime, and there was an endless stream of people rushing to Chengdu to report the news.

"Your Majesty, it's not good, the Qing army has fought Chaotian Pass!"

"Your Majesty, Guangyuan is lost!"

"Your Majesty, the Sword Gate Pass is lost!"

After a series of news arrived in Chengdu, Zhang Xianzhong could no longer sit still, and immediately convened the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to discuss countermeasures.

In the end, considering that there was still a Ming army in the south, Zhang Xianzhong decided to urgently transfer the Ainengqi and Liu Wenxiu troops to help Baoning Fucheng.

After all.

Once the city of Boryeong was lost, it meant that the entire northern Sichuan fell into the hands of the Qing army.

Zhang Xianzhong was not in a hurry at this time, not only did he urgently transfer Ainengqi's troops and Liu Wenxiu's troops to the north, but even his own fifty battalions of Chinese troops began to assemble.

But at this time, the news of the Gao Yigong Department of the Exterminating Army and Fuling and Yuan Zongdi's Lianxia Tianguan and Yeshan Pass were also transmitted to Chengdu Mansion.

Zhang Xianzhong did not dare to transfer out of the Ainengqi Department again, so he had to change the order and order Liu Wenxiu's department to stay in Chengdu, and he personally led the main force of the 50th battalion north to Baoning.

"Although you have always governed the army quite strictly, but you can't fight, let you support northern Sichuan is only afraid that it will be a mistake, stay in Chengdu for the time being, you must implement the policy of strengthening the wall and clearing the wilderness, and at the same time pass the order to your eldest brother and second brother for me, guard Xuzhou and Jiading, and do not let the Ming army enter Sichuan!"

Zhang Xianzhong immediately pulled out the camp and went north after entrusting Liu Wenxiu to Jianzhou a day later, Suining three days later, Shunqing five days later, and Baoning Mansion on the 10th.

At this time, Zhou Zebu's forward battalion had just taken Cangxi.

As soon as Zhang Xianzhong arrived in Baoning Fucheng, he was not afraid of the Qing army, and directly took the initiative to counterattack Cangxi, dispatching an army of 100,000, 30 copper cannons and 30,000 archers to attack Cangxi County.

Li Yongxing held the city according to Cangxi City, and 100 infantry field guns and 3,000 Chongzhen 19-style flintlock pistols repelled the attack of Zhang Xianzhong's troops.

Zhang Xianzhong was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he was not discouraged, and three days later, he organized troops to counterattack the Qing army again.

Li Yongxing didn't want to sacrifice the strength of his Jinyi Guard in vain, so he took the initiative to withdraw to Tieshan Pass.

Li Taibai said that it is difficult to go to the sky.

Because of this, there are more than 10 dangerous passes on the entire road from Hanzhong to Sichuan, and this Tieshan Pass is a dangerous pass on the way south from Jianmen to Baoning Fucheng.

Now, even if Zhang Xianzhong has hundreds of thousands of troops, he can only attack Tieshan Pass in the narrow valley road.

The forward battalion of Zhou Zebu used muskets and artillery to hold the city, forcing Zhang Xianzhong to not advance an inch, leaving countless corpses, blood stained the entire Shu Road, and the entire Jialing River was a wail.

At this time, Zhou Ze's main force also rushed to the area of Tieshan Pass, and raided Zhang Xianzhong's battalion from the direction of Dahou Mountain.

Zhou took the opportunity to take Liangshan Pass, and the forward battalion also recaptured Cangxi, and raided into Nanjin Pass, and the troops pointed directly at Baoning Mansion.

Zhang Xianzhong's troops dispatched all their troops to start a decisive battle with the Qing army of Zhou Zebu under the city of Baoning Mansion, but Zhang Xianzhong did not expect that the firearms of the Qing army Zhou Zebu were so sharp, and the 3,000 cavalry sent were defeated, and Hexi Pass was also broken by the Qing army's artillery, and Zhang Xianzhong's army was in turmoil.

The 500 Jinyi guard cavalry of the forward battalion suddenly killed from the direction of Tongshui when Zhang Xianzhong was preparing to evacuate Baoning Fucheng, Zhang Xianzhong had to flee back to Baoning Fucheng in defeat, and at this time Zhou Ze's forward battalion had attacked and occupied Baoning Fu, and Li Yongxing had personally led an elite army to chase and kill Zhang Xianzhong's department.

"There is news from the inside that Zhang Xianzhong's face is as red as grease, there is a scar on his forehead, he is wearing black cotton armor, his head is wrapped in a red scarf, and the horses are white!"

Li Yongxing and other Jinyi guards have always remembered Zhang Xianzhong's general appearance, and then saw a red-faced man on a white horse fleeing south surrounded by tens of thousands of people, he immediately picked up the Chongzhen 19-style flintlock pistol with his left hand and put on the ammunition, opened the fire door, took off the bayonet with his right hand and stabbed the horse's abdomen, and when the horse was galloping wildly due to severe pain, a shocking thunderbolt was thrown into the crowd in front of him, which caused Zhang Xianzhong's front army to be in chaos.

Li Yongxing took advantage of this to take the lead in the encirclement, raised his hand and shot Zhang Xianzhong in the shoulder.

Zhang Xianzhong fell off his horse, bleeding profusely.

At this time, Li Yongxing jumped over and smashed this Zhang Xianzhong with the butt of his gun, and captured Zhang Xianzhong alive.

As a result, the Onishi army was completely defeated and fled south.

Zhou Ze and He Zhen also hurried to arrive at this time, and finally confirmed that it was Zhang Xianzhong who was captured, and immediately reported the news to Haoge, and at the same time, Li Yongxing himself passed the news to Wu Mengming, the Jinyi guard.

On August 28, the Qing army Zhou Zebu arrived at Fenghuang Mountain in Peng'an, which was only a day's journey from Shunqing Mansion.

However, Zhou ordered a temporary rest on the grounds of lack of grain and grass, and ordered He Zhen's troops to attack Jiangyou, Mianzhou and other places along Xiaotongshui.

The reason why He Zhen was transferred was naturally to make it easier for Zhou Ze to contact the Ming army, and his task was to kill or capture Zhang Xianzhong, so that the officers and soldiers of Daxi would hate the Qing army instead of the Ming army.

For this reason, Zhou Ze played the banner of Prince Su Haoge everywhere, and even began to loot the local gentry in northern Sichuan, all speaking Manchu and playing full flags, causing the whole northern Sichuan to be full of grievances, but also raised no less than one million taels of silver, and even hundreds of thousands of stone grains.
