Tian Jianxiu jumped up violently and said to him: "Ling Jingyang, are you a big rebel? ”

Ling Jingyang has soldiers and food in his hands, although Datong City has been ceded to the party to defend the army, he still has more than 1,000 soldiers and horses in Datong City who have not been withdrawn, but follow him to act, these soldiers and horses are not many, but they can protect his life.

He continued: "My lord, my Dashun army has been defeated again and again from Shanhaiguan, and has retreated again and again, and has retreated to the base camp in Shaanxi. ”

Tian Jianxiu was a little short of words, this plan was proposed, His Majesty did not agree, but he did not object, he looked at the teacup coldly, and said in a muffled voice to Ling Jingyang: "Ling Jingyang, you continue." ”

Seeing Tian Jianxiu, he was a little moved, and Ling Jingyang asked Tian Jianxiu, where is the prince of Emperor Chongzhen?

Tian Jianxiu pondered for a while and said: "The whereabouts of the crown prince Zhu Cihong are unknown, some people say that he was returned to the capital by Wu Sangui, and some people say that he went to Yingtianfu, in short, he is not in the hands of our army. ”

"What about the other princes?"

Ling Jingyang was very sad, if the crown prince was still alive, the remnants of the forces in Jiangnan would not be as embarrassing as the clowns who jumped off the beam.

"Zhu Cijiong, Zhu Cijiong was separated when our army withdrew from the capital, and I don't know what happened."

Ling Jingyang smiled bitterly, and Hetian Jianxiu suggested that he could let people inquire about the three princes.

Tian Jianxiu squinted his eyes and asked, "What did you do when you found them?" ”

"Supporting one of them to ascend the throne as the emperor, so that the remnant Ming forces in Jiangnan lose their legality, and are forced to obey the prince as the heir of the Ming Dynasty, Your Majesty can remotely control behind the scenes, and command the remnant Ming forces to fight against the Qing army, it is better than letting us and the Qing army stand hard."

Tian Jianxiu seemed to have been struck by thunder, surprised by Jingyang's whimsy, the Dashun army and the predecessors of the Dashun army fought for decades of bloody battles, and finally broke through the capital, overthrew the Ming Dynasty, and forced the life and death of Emperor Chongzhen to be unknown, and now he even wants to re-obey Zhu Ming as the emperor, isn't this going to make the soldiers of the Dashun army collectively become crazy?

"Nonsense, nonsense, Ling Jingyang, have you eaten too much lard, lard covers your heart, and you actually said such ridiculous words, you hurry up and roll me to Wei Yuanwei, don't be embarrassed here."

He didn't know that Ling Jingyang opened the eyes of heaven, and at this time next year, the Dashun army was torn apart by Azig, Li Zicheng was martyred, and the remnants of the main force of the Dashun army returned to Shun Nanming, and it was renamed the Loyal Battalion to serve the remnant Ming.

But at this time, he still thought that the Dashun army had the strength to continue fighting, and angrily reprimanded Ling Jingyang for being absurd, and Ling Jingyang's face turned red when he was scolded by him.

He believes that the general trend of the world is on the side of the Qing army, the Qing army's field combat ability is superb, the cavalry of the Dashun army cannot be low, and the artillery of the Qing army is thrown out of the Shun army for hundreds of miles.

Only temporarily lowered his head, pinched his nose and united with the remnant Ming forces, don't fight alone, besieged by the remnant Ming and the Qing army, Ling Jingyang dared to say this, because he had Zhu Youzhen as the emperor in his hand, and he couldn't find the prince in office, so he pushed Zhu Youzhen out again.

But before he could continue to express his opinions, Tian Jianxiu waved his hand, and immediately two personal soldiers came in from outside the door, please Ling Jingyang go out.

Ling Jingyang shook his head, went out, came to the outside of the city, ordered the assembly of the team, and prepared to go to Weiyuanwei, before leaving, he asked his subordinates to pick up the troops pursuing the Qing army, and after joining the pursuing troops, the whole army went to Weiyuanwei to assemble.

From Datong City to Weiyuanwei, Ling Jingyang walked for three days, he was not in a hurry to go to Weiyuanwei, he was waiting for the soldiers and horses of other departments, and the day after he arrived at Weiyuanwei, Murong Tu, Niu Guangtian, Lin Erle and other old generals of Datong Mansion also arrived in Weiyuan, and Jiang Xuan also followed them back to Weiyanwei.

At this point, Ling Jingyang's troops in Datong Mansion were all assembled in Weiyuanwei, and Ling Jingyang convened a meeting of the lieutenants, at the meeting, Ling Jingyang decided to expand the Weiyuan Acropolis, and upgraded Weiyuanwei to Weiyuan Mansion, under the jurisdiction of Datong Left Guard, Datong Right Guard, Pingyu Wei three cities, and the stone battalion headquarters was stationed in Weiyuan City.

Because the distance between the Datong Left Guard and Datong City was too close and it was easy to be besieged by the Qing army, Ling Jingyang ordered to strategically abandon the Datong Left Guard, and only stationed part of the cavalry and baggage in the Datong Left Guard, which was the scout supply station for the whole army.

Because the three cities of Datong Right Guard, Wei Yuanwei and Pingyu Wei are arranged vertically in the north and south, Ling Jingyang also ordered Leng Ru Tie to garrison the right guard of Datong, Murong Tu and Niu Guangtian to garrison Pinglu Guard, Zhang Luo Auxiliary Department, and the artillery battalion is the garrison of Weiyuan City.

In order to enrich the population and expand the strength and actively prepare for war, Ling Jingyang appointed Wang Mu as the prefect of Weiyuan Mansion and Lin Erle as the governor of Weiyuan Mansion.

Lin Erle was a little unhappy, his troops' combat effectiveness was too weak, after arriving at Weiyuanwei, he was ordered by Ling Jingyang to reorganize, more than 1,000 soldiers were divided among other departments, and Ling Jingyang only reserved a 20-person personal guard for him.

Seeing that Lin Erle was depressed, Ling Jingyang also gave him a fat difference, appointed him as a tax envoy of Weiyuan Mansion, collected taxes in Weiyuan Mansion, and how much tax was levied by the main body, Ling Jingyang asked Wang Mu and Lin Erle, as well as the four major families and others to discuss together.

Although Weiyuan Mansion does not have much land and population for the time being, there will be it in the future, Lin Erle is also a little tired, with this fat difference, he will completely bid farewell to the military career of fighting and killing.

Ling Jingyang asked Lin Erle to take his family to Datong Mansion again, so as not to be harmed by the Qing army, Lin Erle suddenly had no sense of loss, and was busy taking his own soldiers to bring the family population to Weiyuan City.

And Wan Liyun, who has been wandering outside the stone camp, got together with Ling Jingyang this time, and Wan Liyun asked Ling Jingyang to support his troops for the last time, so that he could better develop.

Looking at Wan Liyun's firm eyes, Ling Jingyang knew that Wan Liyun was going to leave this time, and he also thanked Wan Liyun for accompanying him along the way, whether it was Shanhaiguan or Beizhili, Wan Liyun always gave him advice, and still killed the enemy with him under the harsh conditions of the Shiying soldiers.

This kindness Ling Jingyang always kept in his heart, he asked Wang Mu to send Wan Liyun five thousand taels of silver, two thousand stones of grain and grass, weapons and ammunition, a carriage of weapons and ammunition, and two hundred war horses, Wan Liyun and Ling Jingyang waved goodbye, and took the troops to other places to expand their strength, his shadow in the sunset made Ling Jingyang very reluctant.

On the night after he left, Fan Honghuo suddenly ran to Ling Jingyang's door with a handful of snot and tears, knelt on the ground and begged Ling Jingyang to administer justice to him.

Ling Jingyang led a group of generals to the door, and saw Fan Honghuo constantly standing on the ground, kowtowing and shouting that Jiannu is shameful, adulterer and adulteress, everyone will be punished.
