"Yang Aiqing, please get up quickly." Chongzhen said, helping him up with both hands.

Yang Wanli is in his 50s this year.

Yang Wanli was born in the White Lotus Sect, and he and Han Yin of the Heaven and Earth Sect were the first to join the Imperial Court Jinyi Guard. In Chongzhen's version of the defense of Beijing, these two martial arts masters made great contributions, and under Chongzhen's strategy, several of Li Zicheng's generals and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses were dizzy.

Compared with other martial arts highs, these two people's martial arts cultivation was the lowest, and after Chongzhen's guidance, they reached the late stage of the innate realm.

However, their official positions in the imperial court Jinyi Wei are the highest, and now they are all crowned by Chongzhen as Jinyi Wei Qianhu. The two of them were flattered, and they were also loyal to the Ming Emperor, and now they each led 100 Jinyi guards, who were specifically responsible for Chongzhen, and provided information for Chongzhen.

In the process of Chongzhen's southern expedition, northern expedition, and eastern expedition, these two people also made great contributions. Especially in the battle of Shanhaiguan in Chongzhen's version, because the two of them provided timely and accurate information, Chongzhen was very handy, and in the battle of Shanhaiguan, Li Zicheng, Dolgon, and Wu Sangui all became losers, and Chongzhen became the final winner.

After defeating Dolgon many times, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang signed the first unequal treaty of the Manchu Qing Dynasty with the Ming Dynasty - the Treaty of Shanhaiguan, and now the Qing Dynasty is still paying compensation for the Ming Dynasty's land cession.

Therefore, Chongzhen felt very cordial when he saw these two people, which can be said to be the two veteran-level courtiers who came over from Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty, so Chongzhen also attached great importance to them.

Now Yang Wanli is also old, when he joined Jinyiwei 4 years ago, he was over fifty years old, and in just 4 years, Yang Wanli has become full of white hair.

This also shows that he has done his best for the Ming Dynasty and has worked tirelessly.

After Yang Wanli thanked him, he truthfully reported the battle situation of Li Yan's more than 200,000-strong army in the Northern Expedition in the past few days.

Its realization is based on Chongzhen's cultivation now, and within a thousand miles, Chongzhen uses his supernatural powers, and he can know these things in an instant.

But Chongzhen still listened carefully to Yang Wanli's recital, which is a minimum of respect for the loyalty of his subordinates.

Li Yan's army set out from Quanzhou and passed through Fuzhou, advanced by land and water, went north along the coast, and entered the territory of Zhejiang.

The Ming army was invincible, and it can be said that it was invincible and invincible. Several important military towns have been taken one after another, and now Wenzhou has been taken without blood, and the morale of the Ming army has been greatly boosted, and Li Yan and Liu Guoxuan are marching to Taizhou with troops and horses.

Now it has reached the vicinity of Yandang Mountain.

Chongzhen nodded and said with a smile: "Haha, Yandang Mountain is a good place, it is the middle of spring, I want to go there to see the beauty of this first mountain in the southeast."

……

Yandang Mountain is worthy of the title of the first mountain in the southeast.

This is a famous historical and cultural mountain, Yandang Mountain was formed in 120 million years ago, in the Northern and Southern Dynasties all began to open the mountain to win, flourished in the Tang Dynasty, flourished in the Song Dynasty, to the Ming Dynasty, there are more historical and cultural accumulation, divided into east and west, north and south, 5 Yandang, all year round, picturesque.

But the most beautiful time of year is, of course, spring.

But at this time, Yandang Mountain not only has beautiful scenery, but also hides a soaring murderous aura.

Because Murong Shan's general Ma Xin was ordered to ambush 20,000 soldiers and horses here, they were originally stationed in Wenzhou, and before the Ming army arrived, Ma Xin was ordered to retreat and retreat to Yandang Mountain, intending to ambush the Ming army here.

Now Ma Xin has received a report from the scouts, saying that Li Yan's more than 200,000 soldiers and horses have arrived near Yandang Mountain, only a few dozen miles away from them, and only one hundred and fifty miles away from Taizhou City.

Ma Xin's big black face sneered, "It's finally here, General Ben can't wait for a long time. Come and go down the mountain with General Ben and slaughter these demon heads!"

Ma Xin was originally the deputy chief soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and now he also thinks that the Ming Dynasty has long been finished, and his emperor Chongzhen has already been martyred. Now this Chongzhen is pretended to be the demons of the Demon Sect, and they colluded with the Manchu Dynasty to earn the Ming Dynasty and the people, which he cannot tolerate.

Therefore, it is necessary to do a vigorous career with Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu, who is assisted by the Murong family, and reorganize the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, they call these soldiers and horses in Chongzhen now the head of the Ming demon.

Ma Xin gave an order, and all 20,000 soldiers and horses were dispatched, rushed down the mountain, and set up an ambush on Li Yan's only way.

Ma Xin's men and horses had just laid an ambush.

Li Yan's forward troops arrived.

The main general of the pioneer battalion is still Ma Bao, the master of Jinyiwei, and the deputy generals are Ma Weixing and Ma Jinzhong. The "Three Horses" led 10,000 Ming troops to open the road in front of the mountains and stack bridges when encountering water. In addition, Zhao Mingzhen, the No. 2 master of the Wudang faction, also listened to it in the pioneer camp.

A general like "Three Horses", coupled with the combination of Wudang School masters, if Ma Bao is counted, it is actually equivalent to having two masters of True Qi Realm cultivation to help in the battle, such a strong equipment, like a sharp knife, defeating the enemy in front along the way.

Li Yan's main force basically didn't start the battle, and only one pioneer battalion basically finished the battle, and the soldiers were able to get to Wenzhou without blood.

But in front of it was Taizhou City, and Li Yan and Ma Bao knew that it was a tough battle. Because Taizhou is the place where Murong Mountain rebelled, and it is also the forward position of Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu, where heavy troops are stationed, it is said that the martial arts master Murong father and son are there.

In addition, Wenzhou City is an empty city, and the defenders there have retreated, and it is estimated that they have retreated to Taizhou, where they will fight a decisive battle with the Ming army.

Therefore, they also increased their caution on this march, and 6 Shaolin monks and two masters of the Wudang faction, a total of 8 martial arts masters were separated.

In addition to Zhao Mingzhen in the pioneer camp, Zhang Mingzhi, the head of Wudang, fought with Liu Guoxuan's sailor battalion, and the 6 Shaolin monks divided the No. 2 person of the Shaolin faction, Master Yuan Zhenzhen, with the second empty master of the four stars of Shaolin, and the two of them, together with the general Yuan Zongdi, were responsible for the grain and grass of the soldiers and horses, logistics support and supplies, etc., and distributed a total of 10,000 soldiers and horses to them.

Because of the march and war, food and grass are the most important thing.

Chongzhen divided his troops into two roads in Quanzhou, and the grain and grass of each road were from each road. The crown prince Zhu Cihong raised grain, grass and silver to transport from Shangjing to Fuzhou and Quanzhou, and then distributed them to these two routes of soldiers and horses, and the main generals of each road were responsible for sending troops to transport them.

The soldiers and horses will go first before the grain and grass are moved, and if there is no grain and grass, they will inevitably fight and chaos. Therefore, it is necessary to send elite soldiers and strong generals to protect the grain, so as not to be robbed or destroyed by the enemy.

The Shaolin abbot took the rest of the three famous monks and listened to Li Yan's Chinese army. The generals around Li Yan at this time include Liu Fangliang and Gao Yigong.

When Ma Bao's vanguard battalion had passed, Li Yan's main force entered the ambush circle, and Ma Xin let out three arrows.

Three ringing arrows burst out of the air, making a piercing sound.

This was the signal for action, and Ma Xin suddenly came out with 20,000 ambush soldiers......
