Chapter 436

Xiangcheng, Yancheng, and Xiping are not far from each other, and they are three adjacent counties.

This distance can be reached in more than a day with a galloping horse.

In the middle of the night, in the Qing army camp outside Xiangcheng, Duoduo, who was neatly dressed, got on his horse, but Kong Youde stepped forward and hurriedly pulled his rein, "My lord, it's so late, let's lead the people over!"

Duoduo's face was frosty, "Go away! Gao Manzi appeared in Runan, and this king must rush to Yancheng overnight."

"Man Dahai just said that he met Gao Manzi. He has an army of [-], and he is not a pig. As long as he defends himself, he will not be able to fight Gao Manzi for a few days. It is not too late for the prince to leave tomorrow!" Shang Kexi persuaded .

Duoduo didn't listen, he still had lingering fears about Gao Yihuan's cunning, and last time he secretly built the plank road to save the warehouse, not only rescued the intruders in Luoyang, but also cut off his food supply.

If he hadn't been decisive enough, the strong man might have fallen into Gao Yihuan's hands.

As soon as Duoduo heard that Man Dahai met Gao Yihuan, he felt a little uneasy, worried that Man Dahai would be tricked.

Duoduo snatched the reins from the horse and said coldly: "Gao Manzi is not in Wuguan, but he ran to Runan, he must have held back some bad idea. This fellow is extremely cunning, Man Dahai may not be his opponent, This king must rush to Yancheng overnight in order to coordinate the battle situation."

Seeing that Duoduo had made up his mind and everyone was no longer insisting, Kong Youde asked, "My lord, what about Xiangcheng?"

Duoduo thought for a while, and then ordered in a deep voice: "Since Gao Yihuan is in Runan, Xiangcheng can temporarily stop attacking and switch to defense. Tomorrow morning, King Zhishun will lead 2 people and continue to monitor Xiangcheng. King Huaishun, you two ordered 2 horses to come to Yancheng to join the king."

Duoduo originally thought that Gao Yihuan was in Wuguan, the main force of Wei Wu's army was in Nanyang, and there were not many soldiers and horses in the Runing area, which were not enough to threaten his flanks. The situation has changed.

Now Nanyang and Runing's Wei Wujun are the horns of each other, Duoduo attacks Nanyang, Runing's Wei Wujun can threaten his flanks, and Duoduo attacks Runing, Nanyang's troops can also harass him.

Gao Yihuan's appearance in Runing made Duoduo feel uneasy, worried that Man Dahai would suffer and Gao Yihuan would attack his flank, so he was going to rush to Yancheng overnight.

At this time, King Sanshun listened to Doduo's order, glanced at each other, and could only salute, "Zha, I will obey the order of the prince!"

Doduo was anxious, so he didn't say any more, and as soon as he pulled the rein, he galloped out.

Behind him, nearly 2 horses, holding torches, rushed out of the camp.

The wilderness outside Yancheng is covered with a layer of white snow, looking around, it is a vast expanse of whiteness.

The moonlight shone on the snow, making the night bright and giving the soldiers in the city a good view.

In the night, there were many torches on Yancheng, and teams of soldiers patrolled the wall, looking tense and strict.

Suddenly, in the silent night, there was a rush of horseshoes, which aroused the vigilance of the soldiers. When they looked up, they saw a large number of people and horses appearing in the wilderness north of Yancheng.

Duoduo came to the city on horseback, but the gates of the city were closed tightly. Nearly a hundred Qing troops were waiting in full formation, watching the city nervously.

A general next to Duoduo rode forward and felt that the atmosphere was not right. He reined in his horse and stood in front of the city gate, and shouted loudly: "King Yu is here too, so hurry up and open the gate!"

After Man Dahai was ambushed in Xiping, he sent people to Xiangcheng to report to Duoduo. When the messenger passed Yancheng, the people in the city knew that there was going to be a big battle in the south.

Boluo was shocked. While asking people to investigate, he asked less than a thousand Qing troops in the city to strengthen the defense.

When it was dark, the people who inquired about the news sent back news that the army had been defeated, and not long after, some defeated troops came to the city in twos and threes, which further testified to the news of Man Dahai's defeat.

Boluo was so startled that his back was covered in cold sweat, and while he had his troops routed outside the city, throwing down some food and quilts, he was about to send someone to report to Doduo.

Unexpectedly, he was about to arrange people, so he heard a report that a large group of people came from the north.

The front line was defeated, and Boluo was worried that Gao Yihuan would defraud the city. The defeated army did not dare to enter the city. Now that he heard the shouts from below, he naturally did not dare to open the door rashly. He hurriedly stood on the wall and shouted: "Who are you? Where is the prince?" ?”

The general immediately became angry when he heard this, and Duoduo, who was riding on the horse, recognized Boluo's voice.

With a stern face, Duoduo urged his horse out of the battle, and when he raised his head, he reprimanded, "What are you doing, Boluo?"

When Boluo heard the voice, it was Duoduo. He was startled, and quickly explained with a sad face: "My lord, Man Dahai has lost. I am afraid that Gao Manzi will cheat the city, so I am more cautious!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and scolded his subordinates, "Don't open the door for Lord Yu!"

"What? What about Mandahai's defeat?" Duoduo listened to his words, his face was full of astonishment, his body swayed on the horse's back, almost fell off the horse~

In the early morning outside the camp of the Wei Wu army, Gao Yihuan was neatly dressed, watching a group of fast horses with the heads of Man Dahai, escorting several Tartars, as well as captured Tartar banners and other things, galloping southeast.

Although Man Dahai was killed and nearly 3 people from the Qing army were killed, Duoduo was still stronger than him.

The Tartars in Guanzhong have not made a move yet. If they cooperate with Duoduo, Gao Yihuan's situation is still very dangerous.

At this time, Gao Yihuan's role in forcing the Ming Dynasty's Zhao'an was revealed, and he was about to pull the Ming Dynasty into the water.

He wrote a memorial and asked for Man Dahai's head to be sent to Nanjing.

This move of his can be said to be quite insidious. Isn't Nanjing warring with the Manchus and the Qing Dynasty uncertain? Don't the Donglin Party and Ma Ruan want to seek peace?
Gao Yihuan, as an official of the Ming Dynasty, sent them the head of a manchurian son in the Qing Dynasty. It was tantamount to smearing yellow mud on the crotch of the Nanjing court.

Before the war, Gao Yihuan sent Wang Shicong to Nanjing, but Nanjing still has no intention of sending troops to help him.

Gao Yihuan lost a lot in this battle. If Liu Heizi hadn't attracted the main force of the Tartars, Wei Wu's army might have lost tens of thousands of people.

The Qing army was fierce and ruthless, and Gao Yihuan completely let Gao Yihuan carry it. He thought he couldn't bear it, so he had to pull Mingchao into the water.

Before that, the Ming Dynasty might have been thinking of sacrificing him to seek peace, but now that Mandahai's head was sent to Nanjing, Gao Yihuan stretched it out again, saying that he was ordered by Nanjing to fight against the Tartars, making the Tartars think that the Ming Dynasty Change tactics, and both sides will become suspicious.

The Ming Dynasty would be worried that the Qing army would retaliate, and the Qing army would wonder whether the Ming army in Xuzhou would send troops, so that Gao Yihuan could take a breather.

Seeing that he had killed Man Dahai, Dong Lin and Ma Ruan should have sent troops to garrison them even if they didn't help him. As long as the Ming Dynasty soldiers and horses moved, the Tartars would definitely feel the pressure, and Gao Yihuan felt relieved.

Gao Yihuan stayed up all night and was dealing with post-war matters. He personally watched Gao Chengxun and his cavalry go away, so he prepared to mobilize troops and quickly go north to retake Yancheng, thereby threatening Duduo's flanks and making Duduo dare not continue to attack Nanyang.

At this time, Zhao Daxuan walked over with his waist knife in hand, "Commander, Liu Heizi told him to go first. His personnel and horse system are all in chaos, and it will be difficult to recover for a while. It is estimated that he will not be able to leave today."

Gao Yihuan frowned, "How many people did Liu Heizi lose?"

"I don't know, I think Liu Heizi's face is very dark, and I guess at least two battalions were beaten and maimed." Zhao Daxian licked his lips.

Gao Yihuan pondered for a while, waved his hand and said, "Go, take me there to have a look~"
