Liu Zongmin, the commander of the Dashun army, fought first and lost, and Liu Fangliang led his troops to battle again and was defeated by the Qing army.

Li Zicheng personally led the horses and infantry to meet the battle, and Duoze ordered the Eight Banners to counterattack with all their might, and the Dashun army lost again.

The Dashun army attacked the Qing army camp at night continuously, but it was ineffective.

The fighting continued for more than a month, until the Qing army's red-coated artillery was transported to Tongguan, and then a large-scale attack was carried out.

With the blessing of artillery fire and the unfavorable situation of the battle, the Dashun army still fought bravely against the Qing army, trying to turn the tide of the war.

First sent cavalry to counterattack, fought with the Eight Banners cavalry, and then dispatched troops to return to the rear of the Qing army to assault, but they were all defeated by the Qing army.

At this critical moment, a large number of troops of the Azig Department of Prince Ying of the Qing Dynasty had entered northern Shaanxi, although Li Guo and Gao Yigong fought bravely in Yan'an and Yulin.

In order to seize Xi'an, Azig left only Jiang Jiu, the general soldier of Datong, to lead a group of Ming Dynasty surrenderers to continue to attack the city and contain the Northern Shun army in northern Shaanxi, and he led the army south to advance to Xi'an.

Li Zicheng knew very well that the main force originally stationed in Xi'an had been transferred to Tongguan, and if he continued to fight hard with the Duoduo Department in Tongguan, Xi'an would inevitably be captured by the Azig Department, and it would be difficult for the civil and military officials, soldiers' families, and important materials of the Dashun regime to be kept.

The failure in strategic arrangement led to the passivity of the Dashun army.

Under the combined attack of the two Qing Dynasty armies, Li Zicheng was forced to decide to abandon Shaanxi on his own initiative and find another way out.

The battle of Tongguan was obviously unfavorable, and he, together with Liu Zongmin, Liu Fangliang, and others, led the main force to rush back to Xi'an, and on the day of his arrival, he led the soldiers and horses, some civilian officials, family members, and property from Xi'an to retreat to Henan via Lantian and Shangluo.

On the second day, Wushan Boma Shiyao, who stayed in Tongguan, surrendered to the Qing army, and Tongguan was lost.

The Qing army was very happy, but Doze did not take it lightly.

That night, Ma Shiyao sent someone to secretly send a letter to Li Zicheng, asking him to return to Shitongguan, and he responded from it, attacking inside and outside, and breaking the Qing army of Duoduo.

Unexpectedly, the secret envoy was intercepted by the Qing army.

On the same second day, in the name of hunting, Duoduo set up an ambush at the mouth of the Golden Basin, ten miles southwest of Tongguan.

then lied about holding a banquet and dismantling all the horses and equipment of Ma Shiyao's subordinates.

With an order, the Qing army in ambush suddenly rushed out and slaughtered Ma Shiyao and more than 7,000 soldiers of the Dashun Army under him.

In this way, Li Zicheng gave up Shaanxi and fled into Henan, and this battle was a key battle for whether the Dashun army could complete the preservation of the northwest region.

And the Southern Ming court saw that the Qing army and Li Zicheng were fighting hotly, especially when the two armies were all pulled by Li Zicheng's Dashun army.

The decision-making figures of the Southern Ming Dynasty, Emperor Hongguang, Ma Shiying, Shi Kefa and others not only did not have the idea of sending troops to recover the north, but gloated from the sidelines.

As a result, Xi'an fell into the hands of the Qing army.

Dolgon, the regent of the Qing court, ordered Dolgon to continue to capture Nanjing with the victorious army according to the original plan.

And the Azig Ministry was ordered to pursue the remnants of the Dashun army.

But Li Zicheng was very experienced in running away, and the Qing army couldn't catch up at all, so he returned in vain.

In this way, Dolgon secretly ordered Duoze and others to rest in Xi'an, wait until the weather warms up, and take the camera to Nanjing.

Li Zicheng took only part of the main force of the Dashun Army, about 130,000 people, for the Eastern Route Army.

This route from Shangluo in Shaanxi to Xiangyang in Hubei via Henan, where it joined up with the local Bai Wangbu and continued eastward to the Dashun army in Wuchang and other places, threatening to take Nanjing.

The remaining part of the main force of the Western Route Army was Li Guo and Gao Yigong, who were originally defending northern Shaanxi, and they could not directly retreat south after the Qing army occupied Xi'an.

Instead, it was planned to move westward to join the other Dashun troops stationed in the northwest, pass through Hanzhong in Shaanxi Province to enter Sichuan in the south, and then reach the Jingzhou region of Hubei along the river.

Li Guo, formerly known as Li Jin, was Li Zicheng's nephew, nicknamed a tiger, and was the main general of the Dashun army.

He led the Western Route Army to move westward first, and retreated south together with the Dashun generals stationed in Qinghai and Gansu.

The former Ming Dynasty officials who were originally ordered to garrison the northwest, such as Ma Ke, Niu Chenghu and others, surrendered under the inducement of the Qing Dynasty.

But I never expected that in the important town of Hanzhong, where the West Route Army must pass, the four generals of the former Dashun Army, He Zhen, Luo Dai, Dang Meng'an, and Guo Dengxian, who were stationed here, had defected and surrendered.

They began to openly use force to block the passage of Li Guo, Gao Yigong and other Dashun troops, intending to wait for the arrival of the Qing army.

Use the heads of Li Guo and others to dye their crowns red in the future.

Shaanxi is fighting, and Sichuan is also windy.

In the spring of 1645, Zeng Ying, the general of the Ming Dynasty, defeated Liu Tingju, the defender of the Great Western Army, and reoccupied Chongqing.

After the news spread, all parts of central Sichuan raised troops to resist Zhang Xianzhong.

Thanks to Zhang Xianzhong's policy of collecting grain, even the people who wanted to support Zhang Xianzhong in the past joined the resistance organization.

Zhang Xianzhong is unwilling to give up the good location of Chongqing, which is the place to enter Sichuan.

He sent the general Liu Wenxiu to lead tens of thousands of soldiers to counterattack Chongqing, but was repelled by Zeng Ying's troops.

The loss of this important mountain town was the first major political and military setback suffered by Zhang Xianzhong after he entered Sichuan.

For Wang Zhaolin, the best assistant of the Great Western Empire, there is only one means, and that is to kill!

In response to the retaliation of the gentry class, he directly ordered all the prefectures and counties to send all the students and the chief political officials back to Chengdu.

And Lin Feng also received the news.

"Nine masters, I'll be back." Lin Feng was fated after all, and he was not treated by Lin Langzhong for his burps.

Lei Datou smoked a dry cigarette: "I'm Nima, surnamed Lin, believe it or not, Lao Tzu let people kill you on the road." ”

Lin Feng was taken aback.

Qin Zuoming smiled: "The surname is Lin, I won't kill you, I will only wish you to be careful all the way, and it is best to meet Zhang Xianzhong smoothly." ”

"How dare you call Your Majesty by his name?" Lin Feng couldn't help it: "You won't be the opposite, right?" ”

Because after Zhang Xianzhong became the emperor, he was a great learner.

All people cannot use the words "dedication" and "loyalty", and those who commit crimes will be severely punished.

In particular, the inscriptions of the past dynasties, from the sword pavilion plank road to Chengdu, have been chiseled.

Therefore, there is no good monument in Shu!

"Do you think I'm going to do it against?"

Qin Zuoming laughed a few times, he didn't care if the person in front of him leaked secrets, because he couldn't survive.

In short, it's the opposite.

Lin Feng went on the road with apprehension, he was afraid that he would be chased and killed by Qin Zuoming.

It wasn't until he arrived in Chengdu and gathered with the rest of the prefecture and county students and officials that he breathed a sigh of relief.

"When I see Your Majesty in person, I will definitely report you, and I will say that you are Qin Zuoming."

Lin Feng decided to give Qin Zuoming a Qin Zuoming name, as long as the army arrived at Xujiabaozi, the yellow mud would fall on the crotch of his pants at that time.

He is not Qin Zuoming, but he must also be Qin Zuoming.

When everyone arrived, many students knelt on the ground.

Zhang Xianzhong knew that all the officials who rebelled against him in Sichuan were gentry, and only these people would have strength and ambition.

And the origins of these students are mostly people of this class!
