Li Rufeng felt Ling Jingyang's pain, as a general, he had the responsibility to cut through the thorns and thorns with the main general: "Captain, I led the troops to break through the blockade of the Qing army, and you led the soldiers and civilians to rush to Shuntianfu, maybe the northern city of Shuntianfu is still in the hands of our army." ”

Ling Jingyang closed his eyes, he thought of the battle of Shanhaiguan, Li Zicheng withdrew to Shuntianfu, and withdrew from the capital after hurriedly ascending the throne in the capital, although the main force of the Dashun army withdrew from Shuntianfu, but the main force was still near Jifu, in early May, the battle broke out again between the Dashun army and the Qing army, the location was in the Qingdu City, Baoding Prefecture, Ling Jingyang desperately recalled, Li Zicheng was on the 29th, led the civil and military officials to withdraw from the capital, where was Dolgon at this time?

The memory he has always been proud of, at this time, there was a short circuit, Ling Jingyang was forced to let himself think about some actual things, maybe at a certain point in time, but he couldn't remember, he had to give up and ask Li Rufeng what day is it?

Li Rufeng thought for a while and replied that today is April 27, and when Ling Jingyang heard this day, his mind suddenly flashed where the main force of Dorgon and the Qing army was, just in Jixian County, and there was a large distance between Jixian County and Santun Camp.

After Dolgon learned that the Dashun army had withdrawn, he led the main force of the Qing army into the capital, that is to say, the main force of the Qing army gathered in the capital, and the troops were weak in other parts of Shuntianfu, and they still had the opportunity to break through the Qing army blockade line to Shanxi, and Li Zicheng fought a big battle with the Qing army in Baoding Mansion, and after the defeat, he fought another bloody battle, and was still defeated by the Qing army, and was forced to retreat from Jingcheng into Shanxi, and the Dashun army withdrew to Shanxi, and the Qing army held on for a period of time, and the Qing army had no ability to go further during this time, and the Qing army was able to attack Shanxi only when Jiang Huang rebelled.

Now if he goes to Shanxi, there is still a chance to destroy Jiang Huang's rebellion, as long as Jiang Huang does not surrender to the Qing army, he can lead the troops and get a valuable opportunity to repair in Shanxi.

At this time, even if the Qing army was ambushed in Santun camp or other places, it was just a partial division with insufficient troops, and with the combat effectiveness of the stone camp, as long as the troops were attacked by the Qing army concentrated more than twice the troops, they would not be able to eat the stone camp.

"Like the wind, don't be reckless, the Qing army will not use the main force to encircle and suppress our small army, we should go all out to fight for the capital with Your Majesty, our army continues to the west, you don't want to break the back, lead the cavalry battalion to the Santun camp, rush to the Santun camp in front of the Qing army, and garrison it in the city, as long as it lasts for a day, the large army of the stone camp will rush to the Santun camp, and the Qing army will be attacked outside the city, and the Qing army will be hurt, so that it will not dare to continue the pursuit."

Li Rufeng was confident that he would rush to the Santun camp before the Qing army, but he was not sure to hold the camp, and said to Ling Jingyang: "Du Wei, with the strength of my cavalry battalion, I am afraid that I can't defend the Santun camp?" ”

Ling Jingyang smiled and said to him: "How can you let the cavalry battalion go to defend the Santun camp with the strength of the army, I will take the soldiers and horses of Dong Daqi's department with you, without further ado, we will leave." ”

Ling Jingyang summoned the generals of the Shiying overnight, as well as Mi Shengguang and Lao Mantou, he did not tell everyone the news that the Qing army might find a large army and retreat to the Santun camp, but only ordered the whole army to speed up, and he led a battalion of soldiers, horses and cavalry to rush to the Santun camp to make preliminary preparations for the large army to enter the Santun camp.

Wan Liyun is willing to go with Ling Jingyang, he is shrewd, and resourceful, take him at least tactically do not have to be afraid of the Qing army, Ling Jingyang finally decided to bring the cavalry battalion, Dong Daqi Department of 200 people, Wan Liyun and Li Daoli two troops and horses more than 300, each of them brought five days of dry food, and rushed to the Santun camp with light equipment.

All other departments and the common people should also speed up, and they should advance 30 kilometers every day, but from now on, they will travel 25 kilometers a day and 15 kilometers at night, and arrive at Santun Camp half a day in advance.

The generals here don't know why Ling Jingyang suddenly speeds up, but they are all people who can fight well, and it is better to arrive at the Santun camp earlier than to sway on the road, after arranging the task, Ling Jingyang took the cavalry battalion and the infantry and set off immediately, and ran towards the Santun camp in the night.

At the same time, Li Roe Deer also led two thousand Qing troops from Luan County to Jizhen, and the Santun camp was in Jizhen.

The Qing army set off from Luan County to Santun Camp, which was much closer than the distance from the Dashun army to Santun Camp from the boundary collar, but it took time for the scouts to pass on the information, and after Li Roe received the information and figured out the intentions of the Dashun army, the Qing army set off one day later than the Dashun army in time.

On this day, pull into the distance between the Dashun army and the Santun camp, as long as the Qing army and the Dashun army are riveting, they can almost arrive at the Santun camp at the same time, Li Roe Deer made meritorious service and led the cavalry to Jizhen, the infantry army maintained a normal speed in the back, and there were Qing army posts along the way to provide logistics services, they could go along the main road, and they could rush to the Santun camp.

Both armies are rushing for time, Ling Jingyang led the Dashun army along the foothills, no Qing army dared to stop along the way, Ling Jingyang and Wan Liyun and other generals said, the main force of the Qing army is near the capital, the foothills of the Great Wall have almost no defensive force, if the Mongolian tribes are still interested in the Ming Dynasty, crossing the Great Wall, can pose a fatal threat to the Qing army.

Although Wan Liyun, Li Rufeng, Dong Daqi and other generals are all supporters of the Dashun army, but at this time it is also from the perspective of defeating the Qing army to look at the Mongolian tribes, if the Mongolian army from the plateau south, the Qing army will spit out in the pass to occupy all the land, but it is a pity that Mongolia has been conquered by the Qing army, becoming the marriage of the Qing Dynasty, and the tribe has also been adapted into the Mongolian Eight Banners to conquer the city for the Qing army.

Wan Liyun and Ling Jingyang shrugged their shoulders, and Ling Jingyang said: "Don't count on the Mongols, when we get to the Santun camp, we have to collect some horses and increase our speed." ”

Li Rufeng agrees with Wan Liyun's opinion, if the stone camp had not taken the people with him, he would have rushed to the Santun camp a long time ago, and he was not afraid that the Qing army would ambush him in the Santun camp, Ling Jingyang smiled, these people followed them from Yongping Mansion to Shanxi, and in the future, it will be the iron force of the stone camp, whether it is to open up wasteland and farm land, or to collect taxes, these people will not have resistance, and they can also use this part of the people as the basis to continuously expand their sphere of influence and gather displaced people, which can play a great role.

Everyone continued to advance to the Santun camp, after a day and a night of forced marching, the next evening finally arrived near the Santun camp, and at this time Li Roe Deer also led three hundred cavalry to Jizhen, only ten kilometers away from Jizhen, but the war horse was tired enough, did not have the physical strength to continue to advance, forced to stop and rest.

The Qing army rested for an hour, Ling Jingyang had rushed to the outskirts of Santun Camp, he watched Santun Camp outside Santun Camp, there was no change from before, it was still a dilapidated scene, and was about to let the cavalry camp enter the city to take a look, but suddenly found that there were figures in Santun Camp Activity, Ling Jingyang was a little confused, could it be that the Qing army occupied Santun Camp before them?
