For this reason, he ordered all units of the Qing army not to provoke the Ming army and the Dashun army, let alone attack the Ming army.

Azig, who was stationed in Datong Mansion, had a different view, he heard that the Ming army in Shanxi was fighting among themselves, and asked Dolgon to send troops to Taiyuan Mansion to annihilate the Ming army in Taiyuan Mansion with a thunderbolt, and then capture the whole of Shanxi.

In order to prevent Azig from disobeying the command and leading the army to attack Taiyuan Mansion, Dolgon issued an order to transfer back to Azig and appointed Bolo as the general of the expedition to the west, commanding all the Qing army units in Datong Mansion.

At the same time, Dolgon also made a false retreat, and constantly ordered the surrendered Ming ministers to visit Emperor Hongguang in Jiangnan, saying that the Qing army entered the customs to avenge Emperor Chongzhen.

Emperor Chongzhen did not die, and there was no reason for the Qing army to continue to be stationed inside, and after the beginning of spring, the Qing army would withdraw to Guanwai.

The Hongguang court had a great interest in the retreat of the Qing army, and the Qing court envoy also deliberately revealed that the Qing army needed silver and grain and grass for the retreat, hoping that the Hongguang court would show sincerity.

He also said that the Qing court did not recognize the Chongzhen court, and even if it retreated to Guanwai, it hoped to see the Hongguang court soldiers and horses stationed in important places such as Beizhili and the capital.

It was these hypocritical words that made the Hongguang court monarchs and ministers greatly encouraged, thinking that the Qing army would really withdraw, in order to raise enough money and grain and grass for the Qing army, the Hongguang court collected grain from all over the south of the Yangtze River, and then sent it to the Qing army.

The Hongguang Imperial Court was also resisted in the south of the Yangtze River to collect grain, and the two major forces of Zheng Zhilong in Fujian and King Lu in Eastern Zhejiang refused to allow the imperial court envoys to enter the jurisdiction, and these two places were almost separatist forces, and the Hongguang Imperial Court did not have the strength to capture these two places.

Grain and grass could only be collected in Guizhou, Jiangxi, Liangguang and other places, and Dolgon enjoyed the benefits of fishermen in the capital, and countless grains and grass were transported from Jiangnan to Jiangbei, and the strength of the Qing army became stronger.

After the Hongguang Imperial Court crossed the river, Huang Degong's troops occupied the central and southern regions of Shandong, and Zheng Chenggong's troops occupied the central part of Hebei and the eastern part of Henan.

King Lu's soldiers and horses captured the south of Beizhili and the northeast of Henan, and other large and small forces also occupied some states and counties, but there were no soldiers and horses from all walks of life

Unified command, set up management cards in the jurisdiction, and began to collect taxes.

On the contrary, the Dashun Army returned to the starting point and continued to operate in Shaanxi, but its strength was not as good as before, a large number of veterans and elite infantry were killed in battle, and the senior generals of the five major battalions also suffered serious losses.

Because of the lack of troops, Li Zicheng did not have the spare strength to continue the campaign with Zuo Liangyu in the Huguang area, and only stationed tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the Baiwang Department in the northern area of Huguang, and all the rest of the soldiers and horses were withdrawn to Shaanxi.

The Dashun army withdrew to Shaanxi, and there was another discordant scene inside, and the remnants of hundreds of thousands of Dashun troops nested in Shaanxi, and the barren land of Shaanxi could not feed hundreds of thousands of Dashun army soldiers and civilians.

If you want to get more living space, you must have more disks, north of Shaanxi is the Datong Mansion garrisoned by the Qing army, the Dashun army is not sure to capture Datong Mansion, and does not want to fight again with the Qing army, to the south is Zuo Liangyu in the Huguang region.

Zuo Liangyu's troops were repeatedly defeated by the Dashun army, and the main force under his command was basically lost, and later reorganized hundreds of thousands of troops, most of which were incorporated rogues and bandits, etc., and the combat effectiveness and organization of the army under his command were very low.

But Zuo Liangyu also has an advantage, fighting locally, stationed in an important town in the central part of Huguang, the Dashun army Baiwang defeated Zuo Liangyu's soldiers and horses several times, but it was never more difficult to go further, the two armies carried out a tragic tug-of-war in the Huguang area, but they were never able to break through the defense line of Zuo Liangyu's department in the central area of Huguang.

The Dashun army only had a way to go east and attack the central and southern regions of Shanxi, but in doing so, it had to engage the Chongzhen court at one time.

This is Li Zicheng does not want to see, but if he does not attack Shanxi, the Dashun army will not survive, and the high-level Dashun army in Shaanxi is divided into two camps, some people choose to go east to attack the weaker Chongzhen court, and the other part of the generals suggests that they can go south from Hanzhong to the land of Bashu.

Going south is the territory of Zhang Xianzhong's Great Western Army, and the Great Western Army and the Great Shun Army are of the same ancestry, and they are both righteous armies with strong combat effectiveness.

The Great Western Army occupies the land of Bashu, which has the name of the country of abundance, occupying the land of Bashu, with Sichuan as the rear and also as a grain producing area, which can feed hundreds of thousands of troops, and the Dashun Army can not make a comeback again.

Li Zicheng was unwilling to go toe-to-toe with the Great Western Army, and finally decided to attack the Chongzhen court, a strategy that was overly strong by Li

Li Zicheng did not hesitate to order troops to be sent to Shanxi at the end of March to capture Taiyuan Prefecture, Pingyang Prefecture, Qinzhou, Fenzhou, Liaozhou and other central and southern Shanxi regions.

Li Guo had no choice, he returned to Yan'an Mansion, where it was easy to get first-hand information about Shanxi, and after returning to the barracks, he got that the Chongzhen court was actually caught in a civil war.

At this time, he suddenly had a good way, he asked Gao Yigong to garrison the military camp, and he took hundreds of elite cavalry from Yan'an Mansion to Pingyang Mansion and went straight to Fenxi County.

The Ming army of Pingyang Prefecture was basically concentrated in Yicheng and other places, and there was almost no defense in the central and northern parts, and Li Guo's hundreds of cavalry rushed all the way to the city of Fenxi.

At this time, Fenxi City was very different from dozens of days ago, and the dozens of officials released by Ling Jingyang really had a few people who took their subordinates to Ling Jingyang.

Among them is Chen Han, the magistrate of Hongdong County, who raised more than 1,000 people in Hongdong County, came to Fenxi County with the raised troops, and became a guerrilla general under Ling Jingyang.

Not only that, ten days ago, Jiang Rang led the troops and grain and grass to Fenxi County, and easily defeated Xiong Sanbu who was cruising outside the city, Xiong San gathered more than 2,000 people outside the city, and wanted to lead the troops to besiege Fenxi County, even if he couldn't capture the city, he would starve the soldiers and civilians in the city alive.

But who would have thought that he would be defeated by Jiang Rang's soldiers and horses in one fell swoop, Xiong San himself was seriously injured, and his subordinates sent him to retreat to Fenzhou, and he was seriously injured and died on the way.

Ling Jingyang had the strength to defeat Xiong San in Fenxi County, but he was never willing to see fratricide until Jiang asked his troops to come to his aid and easily defeated the reserve army.

Jiang Rang expressed his intention under the city, Ling Jingyang opened the city gate and invited him to enter the city, Jiang Rang came to the city, and Ling Jingyang talked about this mutiny, and told Ling Jingyang that Zhu Youzhen went to Qinzhou, Henan Mansion, and Huaiqing Mansion, and if the soldiers and horses in these three places did not obey the dispatch of the imperial court, they would be wiped out in the name of the rebels.

After hearing this, Ling Jingyang was terribly calm, these days he did not attack the rebels outside the city, nor did he attack other states and counties, because he did not want to continue internal friction.

was also waiting for Wang Mu in Fenxi County, Wang Mu did rush back from Yicheng, but he didn't bring anyone from Yicheng, not only did he not bring back Zhu Youzhen, but others didn't bring it back.
