Ling Jingyang felt that his brain was not enough, what was the Qing army going to do, he was persuaded to surrender for a while, and he was sent out of the country as a gift for a while, and he also asked Shiying to retreat from the north of Zunhua City, Ling Jingyang couldn't think of it, and other generals couldn't think of it, Wan Liyun, Leng Rutie, the two Zhiduoxing generals, couldn't see why, but Li Rufeng suggested that he lead his troops to Zunhua City to have a look, this proposal was vetoed by Ling Jingyang, it is not wise to go to Zunhua City at this time, maybe the Qing army has already laid an ambush in Zunhua City, and waited until the vanguard of Shiying went to die.

This is also the genius of Li Roe deer, in fact, his subordinates are still on the way, and they did not rush to Zunhua City at all, but through Gao Tun's mouth, the judgment of the Shiying generals was deviated, and they did not dare to go to Zunhua City, and their confidence to continue to advance along the Great Wall to the west was also hit.

Seeing that the generals were a little sluggish by a messenger of the Qing army, Ling Jingyang took a long breath and said to the generals: "Everyone, our army is still moving forward, and there is a Qing army in Zunhua City, so we will defeat the Qing army and crush it all the way." ”

The generals were encouraged by him, and they also nodded, Ling Jingyang also gave Leng Rutie a task, the whole army from now on, to start gathering the people, especially from Zunhua City to the west, as long as the people who can be seen, they must gather, like a snowball, rolling to Shanxi, Shiying will become a powerful force.

Leng Rutie stood up and expressed his views with Ling Jingyang, he thought that if there was no stable logistics, he began to gather the people, would it cause a food shortage?

Ling Jingyang is not worried about grain and grass, the Qing army and the Dashun army are about to have a second round of battles, there are countless grain and grass in the rear of the Qing army, and when the time comes, a special cavalry unit will be formed, and the Qing army and the Dashun army will attack the Qing army's grain and grass in the gap between the battle, which can feed tens of thousands of people, and can also put pressure on the logistics of the Qing army.

Wanliyun and Leng Ru Iron, Ling Jingyang thought differently, the army passed Zunhua City to the west, there should not be many people along the way, and when they arrived in Xuanfu Town, they just didn't know that Xuanfu Town was still under the garrison of the Dashun Army at this time?

He and Ling Jingyang mentioned Xuanfu Town, the arrival of the army in Xuanfu Town is equivalent to stepping into Shanxi with one foot, but how should the army of Xuanfu Town be handled, whether it is to annex the army of Xuanfu Town, or just passing by Xuanfu Town, Ling Jingyang is not familiar with Xuanfu Town, he asked Wan Liyun, how many garrisons of the Dashun Army are in Xuanfu Town, Wan Liyun is just a captain, and he does not know how many garrisons there are in Xuanfu Town, if these garrisons surrender to the Qing army, Shiying will have to fight another bloody battle and break through the defense line of the garrison of Xuanfu Town before he can reach Shanxi.

Ling Jingyang military department is afraid of fighting with the soldiers and horses of Xuanfu Town, these army soldiers can't beat the Dashun army, and they can't beat the Qing army, that is, a group of soldiers who have lost their discipline, eating and waiting for death in the local area, and Wan Liyun said: "Our army broke through Zunhua City as soon as possible, arrived at Miyun through Zunhua, rested in Miyun, and found an opportunity to fight an ambush on the Qing army behind, so that the Qing army did not dare to continue the pursuit, and then the whole army rushed to Xuanfu Town." ”

Speaking of this, Ling Jingyang paused, looked at the expectant eyes of the generals, and continued: "Xuanfu Town, what Captain Wan said, I thought that these troops in Xuanfu Town, that is, the grass on the wall, can surrender the Dashun army and the Qing army, but at least it is still our Dashun army, we have to rush before the Qing army attacks Xuanfu Town, and turn all the soldiers and horses of Xuanfu Town into our stone battalion soldiers, can you have confidence?" ”

Ling Jingyang dared to say this, looking down on the Ming army in Xuanfu Town, because Wang Chengyin, the chief soldier of Xuanfu Town, like Jiang Xuan, surrendered together after Li Zicheng's Eastern Expedition.

But as long as they rush to Xuanfu Town with a large number of people and supplies, these town soldiers who lack food and clothing will not hesitate to follow Shiying.

Under the guidance of Ling Jingyang, the generals were no longer afraid of the defenders of Xuanfu Town, on the contrary, many generals wanted to pass through Zunhua City as soon as possible and arrive in Miyun to give the Qing army a beautiful ambush.

Wan Liyun asked Ling Jingyang, what should the messenger of the Qing army do?

Ling Jingyang smiled and said to Wan Liyun, let him take it with Jin Dashou, and go to Shanxi to see if these two people will surrender, surrender and avoid death, and let Wan Liyun watch if they don't surrender.

Then Ling Jingyang looked at the distance from Zunhua City to Miyun, nearly 200 kilometers, and before the meeting ended, he ordered all troops and horses to prepare for a forced march, and strive to reach Miyun within five days, and arrive at Xuanfu Town before May 15.

After the meeting, Leng Rutie suddenly came back, before he became the Dashun Army, he was a soldier of Jizhen Town, and Tang Tong, the chief soldier of Jizhen Town, was the chief soldier of Miyun Town before, and later Miyun Town and Jizhen were merged together, he was not sure that Miyun Town at this time was still in the hands of the Dashun Army.

Ling Jingyang didn't think of this, he thought that the direction of the Qing army and the Dashun army was in the capital and the south of Beizhili, and the two armies did not have the energy and strength to fight for these leftover military towns.

This is also their way from Yongping Mansion to Santun Camp, fast to Zunhua City, along the way the Qing army soldiers and horses are very few, so few that no group of Qing troops dare to block the stone camp on the road, only the Qing army division behind is in the back pursuit.

He said to Leng Rutie: "Leng Zhangqi, are you worried about Miyun and our army's Dashun soldiers and horses, but will you have surrendered to the Qing army?" ”

Leng Rutie returned to the camp to listen to Jingyang, after Miyun Town and Jizhen became a town, Tang Zongbing almost took all his troops to Shanhaiguan, there should not be many troops in Miyun Town, if there are still soldiers and horses in Miyun Town, either follow Tang Zongbing to withdraw, or surrender to the Qing army, because there are too few soldiers and horses left in Miyun Town, they can't stop the attack of the Qing army at all, and they can't stop the attack of Shiying.

"You mean, it's possible that Miyun Town has fallen into the hands of the Qing army?"

Leng Rutie nodded, he came back to report to Ling Jingyang, there was only one purpose, that is, the speed of the Shiying army and civilians was too slow, not only to rush to Xuanfu Town before the surrender, but also to quickly rush to Miyun Town, and annex the soldiers and horses of Miyun Town to Shiying, for which he was willing to lead an elite cavalry to Miyun Town and persuade the local defenders to retreat with the Dashun army.

Ling Jingyang has only Leng Rutie as a general of the Jizhen system, let him go to Miyun Town, which can open up a passage for the army, but if Leng Rutie goes to Miyun Town and is killed by the local defenders, it will be a big loss for Shiying, not only the loss of excellent military generals, but also the internal balance of Shiying will be broken.

He and Leng Rutie talked about Zunhua going too far to Miyun, and he didn't worry that Leng Rutie only led a small number of soldiers to open the way, Leng Rutie saw that Ling Jingyang did not agree, and said a little anxiously: "Captain, we have lagged behind the Qing army too much, our Dashun army has been defeated all the way, and the cities on this road have almost surrendered to the Qing army. ”

Leng Rutie rarely has a time when he is not calm, but tonight he can't hold back, Shiying only advances thirty kilometers a day, this speed is too slow, Lingju Guan Nanyang also let the dragon people, this is almost a waste of time.

"The last general asked to discard his own weight, advance lightly, travel a hundred miles a day, arrive at Miyun within three days, continue to move forward after arriving in Miyun, don't worry about the tail behind, arrive at Xuanfu Town before May 10, get supplies and soldiers and horses in Xuanfu Town, if necessary, our army can be stationed in Xuanfu Town, and use the city of Xuanfu Town to resist the attack of the Qing army."

"What about the people?"

Leng Rutie couldn't figure out why Ling Jingyang took such a fancy to those people, those people died when they died, what was a pity, he said: "Let Yiliang General lead the people to Shanxi." ”

Ling Jingyang shook his head suddenly, looked at Leng Rutie coldly, and asked him for giving the people to the grass on the wall in Shanxi, what about your conscience?

Startled by Ling Jingyang's action, Leng Rutie quickly calmed down, under the illumination of the torch, his face was a little unsightly, he felt that Ling Jingyang did not trust the Shanxi Ming Army, these Ming troops surrendered to the Dashun Army, they have changed their flags, and they have become the soldiers and horses of the Dashun Army, and there are Zhang Tianlin and other old soldiers of the Dashun Army in Shanxi, even if the Ming Army in Shanxi wants to surrender to the Qing Army, General Zhang does not agree, in his opinion, Ling Jingyang not only does not trust the Shanxi Ming Army, but also does not look forward, and it is difficult to achieve great things with him.

"Du Wei, our army is alone, I don't have the ability to carry the flag, and I want to do a lot of damage in the rear of the Qing army, in order to achieve the strategic goal, I can't continue to drag the people together, let's just say that this Zunhua City, if you want to break through the defense line, our stone battalion will lose some soldiers and horses, and you will not be able to continue to protect the people, and please move forward lightly."

He said that he wanted to listen to Jingyang abandon the people and baggage, and the whole army only brought ten days of dry food, broke through the blockade line of the Qing army along the way in one fell swoop, and after arriving at Xuanfu Town, he forced the defenders of Xuanfu Town to surrender by force, and won a respite for Shiying.

Ling Jingyang will not give up the people easily, these people are the foundation of the growth of the stone camp, but there seems to be no better way to persuade Leng Rutie, it is better to let Leng Rutie and some cavalry battalions go to Miyun, maybe get a soldier and horse in Miyun, but before that, he has to dig out his heart with Leng Rutie. Let this calm and terrible general have a warm heart.

"Cold as iron, Captain Pontus and you have different ideas, but there is a sentence, I don't know if you have ever heard of it?"

Leng Rutie pricked up his ears and listened quietly to Ling Jingyang talking to him: "The last general will listen to him." ”

"Seeking common ground while reserving differences"

Leng Rutie is not a rough person, he can understand what it means to seek common ground while reserving differences, Ling Jingyang told him that he, and other Shiying generals are all soldiers of the Dashun Army, in the framework of the Dashun Army, everyone eats in the same pot, and can disagree with Shangguan's point of view, but must obey Shangguan's command, but on this basis, it is necessary to find a common entry point with Shangguan.

Leng Rutie heard such a novel point of view for the first time, and he asked Ling Jingyang curiously, what is this so-called entry point?

Ling Jingyang said loudly: "Then it depends on what your ideal is? ”

My ideal? Leng Rutie Deng was a little blank, he didn't seem to have ideals, when he was a soldier and a soldier, when he was still in the Ming army, his mind was full of fighting with the Dashun army and the Qing army, and after becoming the Dashun army, he had to fight with the Guanning army and the Qing army, and it seemed that he had been drifting with the flow.

Ling Jingyang looked at him with a smile and asked him to sit down, he wanted to subdue this wise general under his command tonight, so that they could see hope and be full of hope, instead of being a soldier in a mess.
