Chapter 261 Be decisive when placing bets

The battle lines can be summed up in one word, but only those who have devoted themselves to Dashun and run for Dashun, and who have wider access to information than ordinary Dashun generals, know it.

Dashun is gone.

The Qing army invaded and the Ming army made the Northern Expedition. Within a few months, the foundation of Dashun's political power, which had been painstakingly built for a long time, was shattered.

The Dashun court at this time may not be as good as the original rogue bandit model.

The peasant army, which originally relied solely on their own abilities, was suddenly divided due to the establishment of the Dashun court.

Although internal criticism, mutual exclusion, and party struggle are not explicit, in fact, apart from not having a name, there are all the struggles that should exist.

Not to mention that the Qing army is only forty or fifty miles away from Xi'an.

Some of the Qing army's light cavalry had already run to the foot of the Xi'an city wall and retreated unscathed under the pursuit of the Shun army's cavalry.

Li Zicheng's personal expedition has also advanced back to Xi'an City.

Where can this go?

At this time, the news that Jiang Quan had raised troops to return to the Ming Dynasty reached the Qing army in Shaanxi. In order to protect the capital, the Manchu Qing court also transferred some troops from the front line, and Duduo led the return reinforcements.

Dashun was reliable, and there was still room for operation and rescue, and it was profitable, so Lao Liu worked for Dashun. For the sake of merit and money, he would sacrifice half his life, go deep into the enemy-controlled areas, and secretly meet with local spies.

There were many other people who noticed it.

It's not appropriate to do it either.

"Okay, the meeting place is at the Tangyu River in the Qinling Mountains. Take a boat to the river and wave the black flag three times as a signal. The river is big and the water is deep. Everyone feels at ease. You decide the time."

"This is the princess of the Ming Dynasty! They are slaves and thieves of the Tatars! We must not let the princess fall into the hands of the Tatars! It is a man who has come to help!"

This is also good news for Dashun.

You will definitely not be able to find out if you ask.

On the same day, the Pucheng Shun army, led by general Zheng Siwei, surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and opened the Pucheng city gate, causing the city to fall.

The princess's handwritten letter is genuine.

The Qing army still wanted to attack Xi'an even though its strength was reduced and there was still a threat from the Ming army behind it. The reason was very simple.

Then a masked man emerged from inside and quickly cut off the reins.

"Go away!"

Jin Yiwei could see Dashun's decline.

But soon there was a gunshot, and one of the two men fell off his horse! The other roared angrily, and drew his knife, but the man from before stopped him!

"Run! I can't save you! Run!"

"come out faster!"

Amidst the roar, a small group of cavalry gathered from the rear! There were two other people masked like the men. They were riding on the side, anxiously loading the short muskets at hand.

"Those who come near die!"

The biggest beneficiary of the Qing army's withdrawal of troops was the Ming army.

But for him, he can only focus on Xi'an now.

Lao Liu is a real person.

House seemingly endless rain.

Because there are many people here.

Dashun was not allowed to turn into a bandit again.

It was like this outside the customs before, and it is like this now in front of Xi'an City.

Da Shunyan seems to be dying, and it is difficult to leave the ancestral land, but if he rescues the Princess of Ming Dynasty, can he start a successful career with such great achievements?

On the other side was another thousand taels of silver.

In one day's time, Xi'an City did not relax at all because the Qing army withdrew some of its troops, and the battle line completely reached the foot of Xi'an City.

There are only small roads along the main road in the town at the foot of the mountain and up the mountain, which are filled with people who have come to seek refuge. A gunshot explodes amidst the noise, and at the same time a carriage crashes into a tree on the roadside!

Now Dashun is even more amazing.

After all, although Jiang Yu is the only one who has rebelled, he is originally the third general of the army. He alone leads the generals of Datong and Xuanhua. His brother is the general of Yulin. Now he is also under the control of the Qing Dynasty. It is difficult to protect this

People will not rebel.

That was the same day, Pei Wu met Lao Liu at Tangyu Lake.

In the early morning of the second day when Pei Wu and Na Lao Liu met, Dashun Linqu Hou Gao Yigong withdrew from Lantian County, and Dashun's army immediately retreated to the Xi'an area. The large number of trenches and defense facilities in the area seemed to indicate that the Shun army was about to attack.

Defend Xi'an.

In early August 1947, Dashun Guoyi General Bai Wang died in battle. His deputy general Wang Tizhong shouted, "I will die as a shaven slave." He also died in battle. More than 8,000 people in the entire army died in Weinan, and ten of them were surrendered to the Qing Dynasty.

One or two.

"Just to be on the safe side! After five days! Don't forget the hundred taels of gold!"

"The battle in Xi'an can be decided! The Ming army has nothing to worry about!"

"Bang!"

The cavalry at the foot of the mountain road in the forest rushed towards me! They were shouting rebuttals! But the word princess still caused a little commotion! The passers-by around him were hesitant.

In the blink of an eye, the woman who had said she wanted to stay skillfully flicked the reins and started galloping down the mountain road!

The other two people fled immediately! The dozen cavalrymen hurriedly pursued them! At the same time, they fired arrows in the surroundings to shock them.

But after the Qing army came the Ming army, which was a nightmare for Dashun.

Of course, things didn't go very pretty.

The savages must have known about the rebellion in the country. Even if the news from behind was not sent to him, he knew from his strategic thinking that the savages would not miss such a great opportunity.

I think it was similar when I was in the capital of Ming Dynasty, and the direction changed quite quickly.

Amidst the chaos and noise, there was chaos all around. The people who had taken refuge were scattered in an instant, crying and screaming. There were also some young men holding weapons and hugging together, waiting to see the situation, hoping to act according to the opportunity!

At this time, a thin figure wearing a black gauze hat and a cloak crawled out of the dilapidated carriage and sedan. Seeing the critical situation, the figure shouted: "If nothing can be done! Leave me here! Find a way out!"

"

The government, which was beginning to collapse, has become warmer again.

In a short while, Lao Liu, who used to be the emperor of Dashun, has been called Chuang Wang. After a while, he may change his name to Chuang Thief.

Like those Han merchants, those literati, and those landlords.

People from around Lantian and south of Xi'an City fled here to escape the fighting.

The only thing that made Pei Wu hesitate was Old Liu's words.

After the Qing army retreated, the Ming army took advantage of the situation and recaptured Yongning County and Lingbao County. However, when they entered southern Shaanxi, they were intercepted by the Qing army and their entry was blocked.

But the process is a bit tortuous.

A large number of tents were set up around the small lake, and there were many small boats and rafts floating in the river.

There are many bettors on the Qing Dynasty.

On August 4, the day after the main force of the Qing army arrived on the outskirts of Xi'an, they began to besiege Xi'an.

The secret letter from Prime Minister Dashun was now on Azig's desk, which made him smile.

"Fart! We are from Dashun! Keep the princess of Ming Dynasty for a reward of one thousand taels of silver!"

It's different now that the front lines have been changed and the soldiers are relieved. The Ming army and the Shun army are both the same. The only new tricks are the trenches and black cannons, but they are not as useful as the savages.

Azig's smile froze when he thought of this.

The man didn't say much, he just picked up the woman who made the noise and threw her to the horse pulling the cart! Then he yelled at the surrounding people!

Dashun was no longer reliable, so Old Liu really led Princess Kunxing out of the city.

Suddenly there was a gunshot, and one of the chasing cavalry fell down immediately, and then there was another sound, and the horse of a cavalry collapsed!

The riders didn’t care! They still kept chasing!

It was at this time that a horse and two horses suddenly rushed out from the bushes on the roadside. Pei Wu kept his pace and did not forget to load his ammunition, and he was close to the woman in a blink of an eye.

"Brother Fang is so good at shooting!"

Pei Wu didn't say anything, but shouted at the woman: "Princess, please show your true identity!"

The woman was not ambiguous, and directly used her right hand to push aside the veil, revealing a frowning face with a sullen expression. Looking at the eyebrows alone, she looked very similar to the current Zhu Youjian.
