In Shengjing, Zu Dashou went out, carried the cage and stood the birds, and went to find someone to have fun as usual.

There was no way, because he had a escaped senior, so Jianlu was not at ease to release him out to lead the troops. He had been living idle in Shengjing, and there were many Jianlu spies around him.

I raised him like this before because his nephew was the general of Ningyuan, Wu Sangui. Many of the Guanning Army in the direction of Shanhaiguan had close or far relationships with him. I treated him preferentially because I wanted to show goodwill to the Guanning Army and win over the Guanning Army.

However, the situation has changed dramatically in recent years, and the Guanning Army is no longer the original Guanning Army. Therefore, Zu Dashou's status is declining day by day.

Originally, he would be held to listen to the meeting, and Huang Taiji and others would have the attitude of being respectful and polite. Even if he didn't give up a single fart, he should have always been posing.

However, now, he will not be notified at all during the meeting, and his treatment has been much lower, just like raising an idle person.

Zu Dashou was also so happy that he went to find someone to have fun every day. At least on the surface, he seemed to be overjoyed and had no intention of running away.

However, in fact, Zu Dashou not only secretly sent people to the pass to inform the people, but also thought about running away all the time.

On that day, he was going out when suddenly, he heard the sound of horse hooves outside the city. With his experience, he could tell that it was the movement of a large number of cavalry arrivals.

"What's the situation?" Zu Dashou thought so, so he changed his attention and went to a lively teahouse to drink tea and listen to the news.

Just like in the pass, there are a group of idle people everywhere, who love gossip and seem to be well-informed.

The teahouse chosen by Zu Dashou is such a place that loves to show off.

"Do you know what's going on outside? Why are so many Mongolian cavalry coming? Could it be that you want to fight with Ming again?"

"Absolutely, such a big disturbance is bound to fight a big battle. If you don't fight with Ming Kingdom, who else can you fight? The Soren people in the north have been conquered by our Qing Dynasty!"

"Even if we don't conquer, we can't fight the Sorens. We, the Sorens in the Qing Dynasty and the Northern Expedition, have never asked the Mongols to participate!"

"But if you fight with Ming Kingdom, how can you fight? You won't attack Shanhaiguan? That's the first pass in the world. The Ming army is heavily guarding and leaning on the pass, how can you fight?"

“…”

Zu Dashou was also thinking while listening. Intuitively, he immediately rejected the guess he heard.

Now the two regents are not clamped by the door, so how could they gather the Mongols to fight Shanhaiguan?

While he was guessing, he heard someone start showing off.

"You don't know, the Mongols were all dispatched in one person and two horses, just to attack thousands of miles and attack the Dongjiang army!"

"What? How is this possible to fight the Dongjiang Army? Can the Mongol horses still float on the water?"

"You haven't even heard of this news? Didn't Prince Heshuosu have already gone to war? He just wanted to hook the Dongjiang army to the shore, and then the Mongols would change horses and not replace people, and attack North Korea and block the Dongjiang army from the shore. Isn't that a deal?"

"Gao, this move is high, then the Dongjiang Army must have never expected the Mongols to join the war, right?"

"That's sure. All Mongolian tribes have sent people here. They are all their heads and elite guards. Let's see how the Dongjiang army runs away this time!"

“…”

Hearing this, Zu Dashou couldn't help but worry.

After dealing with these people for most of his life, he naturally knew how dangerous the Dongjiang Army was.

It is actually similar to the Mongolian tribes of the Jianlu Alliance. Some of them have regular troops. These are the elites of the Mongolian tribes. They are well-equipped and do not need to be grazed in normal times. Unlike ordinary herders, not to mention armor, even arrows may not be iron.

The standing troops of the Mongolian tribe in the eastern region should be tens of thousands of troops. If you don’t replace the horse or the person, you can really get a long way in one day and night. This kind of combat method is the most unpredictable.

Because the scope of the investigation that is not collected at night is impossible to detect so far. And even if it is detected, it is probably not time to give back, and it is even more impossible to react.

Of course, such a big fight is also very expensive. Without enough motivation, even though the Mongolian tribes are allies with Jianlu, they would not have put in such great effort.

Thinking of this, Zu Dashou immediately remembered it. This is probably related to the previous visit of envoys from various Mongolian tribes to Shengjing!

However, because he did not participate in the court, all the information he could know was found out like this, so he didn't know the further details.

"This time, the Dongjiang Army is in danger!" Zu Dashou thought so in his heart, and his brows frowned.

He knew that after spending such a great price, Jianlu would definitely be sure to hook the Dongjiang Army up the shore.

If possible, of course he wanted to inform the Dongjiang Army.

However, as a general who has been through the battlefield for a long time, he certainly knew that under this background, Jianlu would definitely spend a lot of effort to block news in the east. It would definitely be very difficult to send news to the east.

If the news is sent to Shanhaiguan, wait until Shanhaiguan notifies the Dongjiang Army again, the body of the Dongjiang Army will probably be rotten.

Zu Dashou was also helpless in this regard. He had the will but was unable to help.

Not to mention, he has sent his confidant subordinates to report the news twice in a row. Now his subordinates have no reliable people to use.

Thinking of this, Zu Dashou was in a bad mood and didn't want to stay for too long, so he went back to his house.

Inside and outside Shengjing City, with the arrival of the Mongolian cavalry, martial law began to begin. Moreover, the troops in the city were also mobilized.

In short, this time Jianlu has really made a big fuss.

Outside the city, there were also Mongolian cavalry coming one after another. It should be a far-off tribe, and it was a little late.

Three days later, just in the early morning, the sound of horse hooves suddenly rang out and gradually moved away.

Zu Dashou heard it very clearly in his mansion. He understood very well that this was the Mongolian cavalry outside the city setting off.

Sure enough, the martial law in Shengjing City was lifted.

Seeing this, Zu Dashou slipped out to have tea and ask for news.

However, this time he went out, he obviously found that the situation on the street was different. It seemed that Jianlu had drawn troops and dispatched them with the Mongolian cavalry. Therefore, the defense in Shengjing City seemed to be much more relaxed.

In the teahouse, the current situation is naturally still a hot topic.

"This time, as long as the Dongjiang Army is removed, our Qing Dynasty will have no worries!"

"Yes, it took the first emperor many years to dismantle the Dongjiang Army. Now the Regent decided to decide the Dongjiang Army in one battle, which is so powerful!"

"You can't say that. Without the foundation laid by the previous emperor, would there be the current Qing Dynasty?"

"Why can't you say that? The ability of His Highness Prince Rui, the Regent, is obvious to all."

“…”

After listening to it for a while, Zu Dashou felt bored and started daily arguments again, all of which were repeated.

However, he also heard that the war against the Dongjiang Army this time should have been led by Dorgon.

When he returned to the mansion, Zu Dashou began to think about this matter quietly.

There is no doubt that the court is stronger than before. Therefore, even if the Dongjiang Army was destroyed by Jianlu, as long as there is a navy, the Dongjiang Army can be rebuilt. Jianlu's plan will still not be fought. At most, it will only take one or two years, which will make Jianlu have no worries.

Poor that those Mongolian tribes still look at the court with their old eyes and are still so close to Jianlu, they are really kicked by horses in their brains.

Not to mention anything else, the court official army has now paid military pay on time, which is enough to prove that the current court official army is not Wuxia Ameng!

The previous Ningyuan War is the best example.

When Zu Dashou thought of this, his eyes lit up: Yes, isn’t the imperial court still about 20,000 cavalry in the direction of Guanning Army?

Now the elite of the Mongolian tribes have all gone to North Korea to fight the Dongjiang army, and their homes are empty. If the imperial cavalry comes out of seclusion...

With a "bang", Zu Dashou suddenly slapped his thigh and made a sound, but he himself didn't feel any pain at all.

He looked excited and continued to think: "If the news is transmitted back to the pass, the army will be dispatched to sweep the Mongolian grasslands in the eastern part of the country, the Mongolian tribes that have formed an alliance with Jianlu will definitely lose their strength. And their strength is greatly damaged, which means that Jianlu's strength is greatly damaged!"

"This credit is a great credit!" Zu Dashou thought so, and he couldn't sit still.

However, there was no reliable person in his hands to deliver the letter.

The safest way is to take risks himself.

Either flee back to the Ming Dynasty or be captured by Jianlu. However, Jianlu probably won't get along so well again and will probably be killed.

After thinking for a long time, Zu Dashou remembered the current situation. All the Jianlu focused on the upcoming encirclement and suppression of the Dongjiang Army that North Korea was about to begin.

And more importantly, his performance over the years has also made Jianlu relax his vigilance, and he really has the chance to escape.

I didn't run away before because I was not sure and had a confidant to use it, so he didn't want to take risks.

But now, there are no confidants under his command, and escaping back with such great news is a great achievement.

After repeated measurements, Zu Dashou made a decision: escape!

He had already had the experience of successfully escaping back to the Ming Dynasty once, and he was from Liaodong himself and was very familiar with Liaodong. After making up his mind, he immediately began to prepare.

At this time, Dorgon didn't think about Zu Dashou's demotion, but was thinking about several other Han officials.

About half a year has passed, and the three groups of people he sent to the pass did not send back the news, which made him very annoyed.

The lack of news within the pass is the biggest unfavorable factor Dorgon believes to have lost against the Ming army.
