“Was it attacked by a thief?”

Kong Youde learned the truth and was furious, waving his knife to cut the table case, pointing to the sky and scolding: "Li Dingguo, child, deceiving too much, the king and you do not wear the sky, sooner or later swear to take your life!"

Left and right belly rarely see Kong Yide so glified, together to persuade, but like the fire of oil in general, Kong Yide has become more angry, scolded Li Dingguo for perfidelity, sneaking up on friendly forces, will only do this kind of despicable little man behavior, not a decent hero.

"Brother Wang does not have to worry, Wuchang, Hanyang city is solid, Li Dingguo decided not to break the city, until the court reinforcements arrived, immediately ice melted and snow disappeared, not enough to suffer."Only Shang Kexiang understood why Kong Yide was so angry, anger was to hide fear, anger was to embolden himself, Li Dingguo's attack was too sharp, too resolute, and he had no scruples about the identity of the Qing army's allies, and he was startled by Kong's virtue and monk.

“How did Li Dingguo suddenly become so powerful?”Kong Youde also knew that the alliance between the Qing army and the Western army could not be trusted, not without defense in advance, and repeatedly ordered the generals when sending troops, in addition to the Chu army, but also be careful of the Western army suddenly turned their faces, but Li Dingguo's army hit the Qing army, lost a few cities together, and lost thousands of people in vain, fully indicating that Li Dingguo's troops were not as bad as imagined.

"Cheng biting gold also has three axes, Li Dingguo followed Zhang Xianzhong for many years, should also be a soldier, even if not compared to Sun expected, but with a heartless, I wait for a while not to check, by him to take advantage of it is not surprising."After he persuaded him, he showed the smile of the wise pearl: "In fact, this is also a good thing, I was expected to withdraw from the De'an House, and Li Dingguo made such a fuss, just fake it, after the court heard about this matter, there is no reason to listen to it, and will eventually increase the army to Hubei."

“Yes!I’m going to write and ask the court to send the army!”Kong Youde shot the case (this table case was cut off by him, can no longer be used), and found a table case to spread the pen and paper, and turned to say: "The king will order, the ministries immediately retreated into Wuchang Hanyang City, closed the city door, strictly guard against the West Thieves to attack..."

The news reached Beijing, Dorgon's condition worsened a few points, there is a feeling of intenseness.

"Father Khan has long said more, the South people are the most cunning, can not be credulous, I joined hands with the West Thieves, is not with the tiger skin?" 」

In Dorgon's vision, Kong Weide and the monk are happy that even if he can't keep the whole territory of Hubei, at least he must take Han Shui as the boundary to keep the three capitals of Wuchang, De'an, Huangzhou in eastern Hubei, and Xiangyang Province in the north, thinking that Henan and Anhui are the barrier.

To put it plainly, it is that everyone is evenly divided into Hubei and marched into Jiangnan together, which is the bottom line that Dorgon can accept.

Li Dingguo snatched the De'an Province, itself is not a big problem, but afraid of the Western army taking the opportunity to go north, into Henan, if this is a false way to destroy the lice, the Western army as long as a partial division from the north of Sichuan into Shaanxi, it will really achieve the right plan of Zhuge Lianglong.

Deer in the original, ask you are afraid?

Dorgon was afraid.

Central Plains land, a horse Pingchuan, from Henan to Beijing, the middle is almost no danger, Li Laiheng with thousands of people horse step in the Central Plains, all made clear the chicken flying dog jump, if the Western army hundreds of thousands of people attack Henan, all the way north, with the strength of the full now, had to immediately give up Beijing, escape from the outside.

Sun and Li Dingguo in the end have no attempt to enter Henan, Dorgon does not know, but he put himself in the position of the inferred, if he replaces himself with Sun and Li Dingguo, may not be able to resist this temptation to seize the world, perhaps ... Sun is expected to follow the promise, first defeat the Chu army, do not touch the Central Plains, but Dorgon dare not take the fate of the Qing Dynasty to gamble this.

That's Beijing!

Sun is expected to regain Beijing, can overwl Wang Kefan to regain the great work of Nanjing, Yongwang Zhu Cihuan returned to the Forbidden City, the Western army's orthodox status can no longer be shaken, Sun and Li Dingguo even if the original did not have this intention, but suddenly saw the opportunity in front of them, who dare to guarantee that they do not move?

For the sake of Beijing's security, Henan must be preserved.

If you want to hold Henan, you must hold the Sanguan of Yiyang Sanguan and Nanyang and Xinye, hold this danger composed of Fu Niu Mountain and Dabie Mountain, and block the Western Army in Hubei.

"Wang Kefan steals the lake, and finally becomes a big problem in the court, Sun is expected to send troops from Yungui, and immediately attack the lake after taking Sichuan, it can be seen that the lake is a place for soldiers, if our army can occupy here, you can destroy the foundation of Wang Kefan, the Sun is expected to be blocked in the wilderness of Yungui, so Wuchang can not help, Kong and De and the other is not happy and not to be lost.What do you think?”

Dorgon leaned against the hospital bed, and two rows of eight flags and the minister of civil service stood before his bed and discussed military affairs.

In recent years, the Qing court was dragged by the Chu army and has been fighting non-stop, the poor soldiers, the national strength is only difficult, should rest and recuperate, temporarily unable to launch a large-scale attack, but Dorgon this "jointly to the thief", or got the consistent support of the Qing court, that is, because his purpose is to restore the transportation, is to improve the living conditions of the Manchu people in Beijing, so everyone tightened their belts to support, and now Dort.

If you can't restore the luck, simply withdraw the army, among the soldiers present, many people feel that the stalls are now too big, full of people have been unable to do so, it is better to shrink the defense, so that Wu Sangui, Tan Tai, as well as Kong Youde, Shang Kexi and Tunbro, can save a large number of military spending, but also to ensure the safety north of the Yellow River, and then sit and watch the situation.

What is even more and more terrible is that this battle is not only getting bigger and bigger, but also the future is uncertain, Dorgon is now ready to transfer the soldiers and horses to participate in the war, the last point to see the old people at home, how to win and lose in the future, Wu Sangui at both ends of the man, or the anti-Qingyi division in Shanxi, Shandong and other places is re-emerging, the court is unable to suppress.

Too risky!

We disagree!

These eight flags and the military men were silent and protested in silence.

"Since no one is against it, it is so fixed."Dorgon knew their thoughts, the sick body is heavy and unwilling to talk more nonsense with them, simply a hammer, see the expression of people's words and stop, and coldly said: "I only have one sentence to remind you, since ancient times there is a north-south confrontation, but there is no peace, I am clear if I lose the sharpness, the future desire for bian An Hebei is not available, will be like the Southern Song of the Great Golden State."

Today you can give up Hubei, let the Western army into Henan, tomorrow you can give up Henan, let the Western army into Zhili, and then, after that, give up Beijing, exit from Guan, return to Fengtian, but at that time, who dares to guarantee that Han people will not chase to Guanwai, the Manchu Qing all killed?

Dorgon used his power and prestige to overcome different opinions, and sent Tantai's thirty-eight flag soldiers, and together with the soldiers and horses of Zhili and other places, from the south-south of the river, to Hubei.

At this point, the focus of the battle gradually shifted to the lake.

The eastern line of Wu Sangui fight stop, the main force has been standing still, Chu Jun is busy with the lake war, in the Jianghuai area to shrink the defense, and Wu Sangui tacit understanding of the formation of the confrontation, Wan Ma Qi, the old Qin army Zhang Yong, Zhao Liangdong became the only bright, their troops dare to fight, in Sizhou a vicious battle, defeated Jiao.

Jiao Lian's Northern Expedition Third Army is a small head wearing a big hat, nominally a army, in fact, only one division of the force, but he is the right Chu army, and ordinary people only know that he is a army, do not pay attention to how many forces he has, a army in the hall was defeated by Zhang Yong and Zhao Liangdong, greatly inspiring the confidence and morale of the eight flags of the children, Zhang Yong and Zhao Liangdong is also known as a momentary general, by the full of great praise.

Zhang Yong and Zhao Liangdong, coupled with the same up-and-the-up show Sun Sik, Wang Jinbao, the reputation of the "Hexi four generals" is not obvious, there is even a saying in the green camp that the eight flags are now no longer, and the troops of Hexi Four Generals and Wu Sangui are the pillars of my Qing Dynasty.

Dolce felt the same way.

He also felt that the eight flags a day is not as good as a day, a generation is not as good as a generation, after the Qing Dynasty, may rely more on the Han army, so he attaches great importance to the "Hexi four generals", intends to build them into a typical, just a few days after the next three decrees, plus officials, to show grace, and the status of the old Qin army increased by half, nominally also controlled by Wu Sangui, but also directly accept the order of the Qing court.

"Alas--I Wu someone has been loyal to the Qing since he shaving his hair from the dragon, and in recent years, he has led the three army soldiers to fight with blood, charge and fall into battle, not to avoid the danger, I did not expect the court to take me as an outsider, Dorgon's play this out, nothing more than the size of the system, it is really the banmen axe."Wu Sangui was very dissatisfied, and grumbled in front of his confidant: "Since the old Qin army can fight so much, the king can't delay their future, just let them go to Anqing to solve the siege."

Wu Sangui retreated, simply decentralization of the old Qin army, and also sent them to rescue Tuen Burr in accordance with the wishes of the Qing court.

Jiao Li's Yangsuo soldiers joined the Chu army after the Nanjing meeting, and even if the second-line troops were alive, and the main force of the Chu army could not be compared at all, Zhang Yong and Zhao Liangdong defeated one of his divisions, and the tail would like to go to heaven, or else, the king would like to hold you again, take you really to the sky, and then climb high, fall heavy, sooner or later in the Chu army.
