"Commander Yan of Qi, Commander Zhang said that this is a plan to attack the east and the west, the Qing army has led 30,000 cavalry to attack Huai'an, let us quickly support Huai'an!"

The generals under Yan Yingyuan came to pray.

Subsequently, other commanders and envoys of the new army also received news from Zhang Huangyan.

Ready to join Zhang Huangyan and go to Huai'an.

At this moment, the infantry of the Qing army saw that the new army of the Ming army was about to change its formation and was ready to rush to the aid of Huai'an, so it hurriedly killed and intercepted the new army.

"Baturu of the Great Qing Dynasty! Now is the time for you to dedicate yourself to the Qing Dynasty, kill! ”

Asimu jumped out and shouted.

"Kill ....."

The Manchu soldiers and the Han soldiers who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty kept shouting in Manchu and Chinese respectively to kill the new army of the Ming army.

The new army was flanked by the Qing army's infantry and had to fight in a hurry.

"Bump...."

The two sides were in a scuffle, and everywhere there was the sound of bird guns and the sound of bayonets fighting with the blades of the Qing infantry.

After nearly six hours of fighting, Asim led the Qing army to retreat.

At this time, Duoduo had already led the Qing army of 30,000 iron cavalry, and there was no trace.

In desperation, the fifth battalion of the new army did not care about rectification, and under the leadership of Yan Yingyuan and other commanders, they frantically advanced towards Huai'an.

A few days later, Duoduo captured Huai'an and slaughtered tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians.

The Qing soldiers plundered the city of Huai'an.

The city was in chaos, and the sound of Qing soldiers killing people and looting was everywhere.

"Prince Yu, we can't stay in Huai'an for a long time! I'm still in a hurry to hit Yangzhou! ”

Guo Shou said to Duoduo, Prince Yu.

"What are you panicking about! Can Yangzhou run? The soldier is now tired and needs to rest, and when he is done, he will naturally move forward. ”

Prince Yu Duoduo said indifferently.

According to Prince Yu Duoduo to rest like this, it is estimated that the Huai'an people will be slaughtered.

Guo Shoudao was not afraid, and the Huai'an people were killed.

It is that Duoduo has been here for a long time, and the new army will seize the time to catch up, in case the attack on Yangzhou is blocked, and the attack will not be overcome for a long time, after the new army recovers Huai'an, it will be flanked back and forth with the defenders of Yangzhou, and the Qing army's 30,000 Eight Banners Iron Cavalry will be over.

"Prince Yu!"

Guo Shou was also ready to persuade him.

"Huh?"

Prince Yu Duoduo glared at Guo Shou directly.

Guo Shou was so frightened in an instant that he didn't dare to say more, for fear of angering Prince Yu and being hacked to death with a knife.

At this time, a woman ran out of the house in disheveled clothes, and several Qing soldiers chased after her.

Dodor was already angry, and he was worried that there was no place to vent that.

The woman's child was snatched immediately.

"Give me back my child!"

The woman knelt on the ground and pleaded.

"Woooooooooo

The baby cried at Dord's hand.

"Good! The king will give it back to you! ”

Duoduo sneered.

I saw that Dordor lifted the baby high and threw it to the ground.

Killed the child on the spot.

"O my child! Woooooooo

The woman watched as the child was thrown to death.

Several Qing soldiers then dragged her back to the house.

Her fate can be imagined.

After staying in Huai'an for about two days, Huai'an was slaughtered by most of them, and Duoduo led 30,000 elite cavalry of the Eight Banners to go south to Yangzhou.

The news of Duoduo's voice attacking the east and west, bypassing the new army, breaking through Huai'an, and heading south to Yangzhou soon spread to the imperial court through flying pigeons.

Inside the Fengtian Temple.

"Emperor Qi, the front-line battle report, Duoduo struck east and west, feinted to attack Hongxian, lured the main force of Fengyang and Huai'an New Army to come to the rescue, and then led 30,000 Eight Banner elite cavalry to bypass the new army, broke through Huai'an, and has gone south in the direction of Yangzhou!"

The officer of the military department who was responsible for delivering the battle report on the front line reported on it.

"Ahh How good is that? The five battalions of the most elite new army of our Ming army all rushed to the front line, and Yangzhou was only 20,000 miscellaneous Ming troops, how could it stop the 30,000 elite cavalry of the Eight Banners. ”

"Yangzhou is my gateway to Nanjing, if Yangzhou is lost, Nanjing will not be able to be saved!"

"Yes! In this way, my Ming Court is not in danger. ”

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all terrified.

"Please order the emperor to move the capital immediately! The new army has been left far behind, if Yangzhou is also broken in a few days, the Qing army can directly attack Nanjing, Nanjing is now full of miscellaneous troops, unable to resist 30,000 elite cavalry! In order to ensure that the Ming court was not destroyed, the minister risked his life to ask for the capital to be moved. ”

Zhang Shenyan, the secretary of the ministry, said with his hands.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

Lu Daqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, seconded.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

He Yingrui, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, seconded.

Zhu Cihong looked at Shi Kefa, Jiang Yueguang, and Gao Hongtu, who were known as the three sages of Nanzhong.

Change history by yourself, and choose these three goods to enter the cabinet and the six ministries, but let them speak for themselves at a critical moment and think about the sake of Daming Sheji.

Jiang Yueguang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, seemed to sense Zhu Cihong's meaning.

So Jiang Yueguang hurriedly stood up from the ranks of civil officials.

Just like Yu Shaobao back then.

"Minister! I don't agree with what the three parts say! ”

Jiang Yueguang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, said.

"Don't be afraid of broken bones, you have to leave your innocence in the world."

Jiang Yueguang immediately recited Yu Qian's lime chant.

"Do you want to follow the example of Yu Shaobao who stubbornly defended the city of Bei [Beijing] back then, and stubbornly defended Yangzhou and Nanjing?"

Zhang Shenyan, the secretary of the ministry, heard Jiang Yueguang reciting Yu Qian's lime chant on the spot, and immediately understood Jiang Yueguang's intentions, and then asked.

That's exactly what I meant! Back then, Yu Shaobao was able to defend the north [Beijing] to wait for help, why can't we stay in Yangzhou and Nanjing for help now? ”

Jiang Yueguang immediately said righteously.

"Hehe, then you don't pee on yourself, are you Yu Shaobao? Who here thinks that they have the ability to Yu Shaobao, and can stand up and show the officials, who is so shameless and can compare himself with Yu Shaobao? ”

Zhang Shenyan, the secretary of the ministry, immediately sneered, revealing disdain and sarcasm between his words.

As soon as these words came out, none of the officials stood up.

Public opinion instantly fell to Zhang Shenyan.

"It's too much to do!"

"That's it!"

"It's just stupid!"

"How can he compare himself to Yu Shaobao? Besides, the current situation is not the same as that of the past! ”

"That's it! It is! ”

“.....”

Most of the officials fell to Zhang Shenyan one after another, and began to criticize Jiang Yueguang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and criticized him.

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable to Jiang Yueguang, Zhu Cihong looked to the side, and the hesitant military department was still in the book.

"My cabinet chief, the military department is still the secretary of Shi Kefa, what do you think?"

Zhu Cihong looked at Shi Kefa and asked.

Shi Kefa's heart was still indecisive at this time, and his heart swayed from side to side.

"Minister...."

The military department is still the book, and Shi Kefa wants to speak and stops.

He is very conflicted in his heart, the reason for moving the capital is to move the capital, and it may not be impossible to wait for help.

For a moment, he could not decide.

Seeing that Shi Kefa wanted to speak and stopped, Zhu Cihong felt a burst of regret.

"Master Shi has read books for so many years, can't he even make a decision on such a little thing?"

Zhu Cihong sharply questioned Shi Kefadao.
