Chapter 326

If there is such a statement, there is no need to say the importance of Tongzhou City.

Tens of thousands of Zheng troops rushed outside Tongzhou City, "Our army won thousands of victories, ten thousand victories..."

"The King of Qi is a thousand years old, the King of Qi is a thousand years old..."

Zheng Zhilong had not received the order to be the king yet, and the senior general was called Duke of the State, but the soldiers of the Zheng army called it this way first.

As for who started the first, I don’t know.

It seems that the battle started after the troops arrived in Tianjin. Can you do this?

So, let it go.

The shouts of tens of thousands of people could be heard by the Qing soldiers inside and outside Tongzhou City. The army rushed to Yanjing all the way, and now everyone has arrived in Tongzhou. Isn’t the morale of the Zheng army like a fire?

No one would think that they were the second Ming Northern Expedition Army, the gentry in Jinling City who wished Zheng Zhilong would die immediately. They could only say good things about Zheng's army, saying that they hoped that Zheng's army could expel the Tartars and recover the Shenjing.

Because this is a great righteousness. It is a great righteousness that can be suppressed by any ghost or monster.

Even if they cursed Zheng Zhilong for defeat and the entire Zheng army was wiped out, they could only come secretly and carry people on their backs.

Zheng Jun was full of morale, and they all looked forward to entering Yanjing City.

Just put the business aside, let’s talk about private matters first

Think about how many good things they had snatched by the Tartars swept through most of the Central Plains. So many Tartars settled in Yanjing, and each family was a fat sheep. If the army could take down Yanjing City, Zheng Zhilong would eat meat and drink soup, everyone would be happy.

So, when Zheng Zhilong issued a military order to start a fight, the morale of the whole army was greatly boosted.

A fast horse galloped into Zhangjiawan, turned over and dismounted in front of Aisin Gioro Nikan. He reported loudly: "Master Beile, Zheng Zhe's horse team is coming!"

Nikan was promoted to Dorobel, who was only promoted not long ago. In the current time and space, his path is far less smooth than that in the original time and space. You should know that in the original time and space, he should be Prince Jingjin now. But in this time and space, he was unable to drink the Yangtze River, conquer Jinling, capture Emperor Hongguang of the Southern Ming Dynasty, and did not have the merits of following the Battle of Haoge Pingchuan and Shaanxi, so he was still a Dorobel.

"Tell Liu Liangchen and ask him to lead the horse army to meet outside the city immediately."

Zhangjiawan is a point that Tongzhou can't get by. It is located five miles southeast of Tongzhou. Haoge naturally would not give this place to the Zheng army for free, and arrange heavy troops, turning it into an important support point for the battle situation in Tongzhou.

Berenican, who was in charge here, led two thousand Eight Banners soldiers and gathered with Liu Liangchen, an old traitor, the general of the Tartars, and the total number of ten thousand Manchu and Han soldiers.

Around the small town of Zhangjiawan, Nikan built many trenches according to the arrangement of Haoge, and all the soil and sand raised were built into chest walls, dozens of large and large cannons were arranged, and there were as many as two or three thousand musketeers.

It can be said that this is a shrinking version of Tongzhou City.

After Liu Liangchen got the order, he did not dare to neglect it, so he led his three or four hundred horses to Nikan to obey the order.

The Tartars reported that there were very few cavalrymen placed in front of the Zheng army, so Nikan wanted to go and see it in person.

But Nikan had no vests at all. Most of the 18-banner horse soldiers surrounded him were armoured, and the rest was Goshha.

"Let's go, they'll go ahead and take a look!"

He didn't give Liu Liangchen a chance to speak at all. Nikan whipped the horse's hips and rushed out with the neighing sound of the war horse.

"Father?" Liu Zehong glanced at his father. When Liu Zeqing's army was defeated, he simply led five or six hundred soldiers to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. Because of his father, Liu Zehong did not punish him at all, but instead became a general of the Tartars.

For a while, Liu Zehong always smiled in his dreams, and he thought it was time to surrender.

The Iron Cavalry of the Qing Dynasty was invincible. Prince Ajige of the British brought only 30,000 soldiers of the Eight Banners and swept tens of thousands of Ming troops, drank horses and the Yangtze River, and killed the Northern Expedition Army of the Ming Dynasty and fled. How could such a dynasty truly recover lost territory and restored Shenjing?

It's a joke.

In other words, the Qing Dynasty was at least the lord of the northern land in the future, at least the second in the Great Jin Kingdom, with a national destiny of a hundred years.

To put it bluntly, it may be like the Mongol Yuan, which will sweep across the north and south in the blink of an eye and unify the world.

In other words, Liu Zehong not only saved his life, but also safely enjoyed wealth and glory.

His surrender was really the right one.

Liu Zehong thought of this more than once.

However, who would have thought that the situation would change so violently and so quickly?

The Qing Dynasty just stepped on the Ming Dynasty and cut off a piece of fat meat. Zheng Zhilong came out halfway and slapped the Qing Dynasty with his backhand.

This is absolutely fierce, and Liu Zehong felt a little nervous when he saw it.

The battle of Yanzhou Ajige was defeated too fragilely, and it was the pillar power of the Eight Banners. Shameless people like Liu Zehong must have a lot of muttering.

The Qing Dynasty was just emerging, so it slapped Zheng Zhilong. The main force of the ace, the invincible Eight Banners Iron Cavalry, is still so straightforward to kneel. Does this Qing Dynasty really have a destiny?

Looking at the future, the Southern and Northern Dynasties were still the Southern and Northern Dynasties. However, the master of the Northern Dynasties may not be the Qing Dynasty, but may also be the Zheng family.

As more and more news of that battle came into his ears, Liu Zehong felt more depressed Man Qing Dynasty.

The Zheng family is also ready to conquer the world, so they have to start in Qilu. The main force of the Tartars cannot beat the Zheng army with more than the less. Can they really do it in the future?

Thinking of the Zheng family he knew, this big green fruit would suffer no matter how you look at it.

However, this is just a seed. If you want to take root, sprout and thrive, you also need sunlight, water and fertilizer.

Zheng Zhilong kept leading the army to Tianjin and attacked Yanjing. Zheng Hongkui led his troops to land in Tianjin, causing his strength to increase greatly. More than 50,000 Zheng's army rushed over. This was the sunshine he needed, and this was the water and fertilizer he said he needed.

They came unexpectedly quickly. In just a few months, the seeds in Liu Zehong's heart grew into a big tree.

Liu Zehong naturally thought of his father. Liu Liangchen has been in Tartar for more than ten years and has married several wives and concubines, but he has not left any seeds. Not to mention the one who carries a handful, there are no ones who don’t. When he met Liu Zehong, he really wanted to tie his son to his belt and even go to the thatched cottage.

He was drunk several times and hugged his son and cried, and then said that Liu Liangzuo was good, and he did this as an uncle. He did not treat his nephew badly at all. He promoted his nephew to a general, and even his own son was like this.

So after hearing Liu Zehong's words suddenly, although Liu Liangchen was so scared that he had a cold sweat, he had no intention of destroying his relatives for justice.

On the contrary, as Zheng Zhilong's army approached Tongzhou one day, Liu Liangchen also made up his mind.

"If there were only Ming and Qing dynasties in the world, you would have to choose the Qing Dynasty as your father. However, there was one more Zheng Zhilong in this world." Liu Liangchen thought about what he heard and saw, and thought about the losses that the Qing Dynasty suffered in Zheng Zhilong's hands. "Zheng relied on his sharp guns and cannons, but he was the most proud bravery of the Eight Banners. No matter how good his skills were, he would be knocked down with one shot."

The white-armored soldiers in the Eight Banners are really powerful soldiers tempered by life and death. They are wearing heavy armor, and one is a piece of cake.

But facing guns and cannons is also vulnerable. You just need to pull the trigger gently. A lead bullet worthless can take the life of a warrior of a hundred battles.

"Who in the world today doesn't know how to deal with the Eight Banners? As long as there are enough guns and cannons, as long as you don't cut corners when casting guns and cannons, and when making medicine powder, you don't cut corners when training, and you're more strict when you can't shoot blindly, these Eight Banners are not afraid of."

Liu Liangchen's words were filled with emotion. He didn't know how ridiculous his views were actually, but he just thought so and believed it without doubt.

The Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were defeated by Zheng Zhilong again and again, and it was all evidence to consolidate this argument.

As mentioned earlier, Zheng Zhilong’s biggest blow to the Qing Dynasty was not how many Eight Banners warriors he killed on the battlefield, but that he could see how to defeat the Eight Banners and how to defeat the Eight Banners.

This is a world where people think so much more than Liu Liangchen.

"Either Zheng Zhilong or the Ming Dynasty, there is no shortage of money, food and firearms. As long as you are careful, don't you see that the Ming army was defeated miserably, they can pull out a large army of firearms that are skilled in less than two years. In this way, there will be a better chance of reorganizing the country than the Qing Dynasty."

Liu Liangchen said in a verbal way, and Liu Zehong nodded unstoppably. Jiang is still the old man, and his father is truly insightful.

Compared with Liu Zehong, he just felt that the Qing Dynasty was not good, and he felt that after Zheng Zhilong had to start in Qilu, the Qing Dynasty would be difficult to achieve anything else, and even had life and death in the future. However, the Ming Dynasty looked very stable now. In addition, the Qing Dynasty frequently used the Han army as cannon fodder, so he did not treat the Han soldiers at all. This was called Liu Zehong subconsciously unwilling to be loyal to the Qing Dynasty.

Liu Liangchen's views are more bottom-line and have a longer-term focus. At the same time, it is more hateful.

Because the reason why Liu Liangchen was willing to rebel against the Qing Dynasty was entirely based on the pros and cons, not the national justice.

No matter how bright the vision and ability of such people are, they are harmful or useless.

Their father and son are really a father and son.

...

Outside Zhangjiawan City.

Nikan glanced at the sun in the sky and said, "Let's go, let's look east along the canal. Wait and be careful. The Zheng thief is very morale. Although his horse army is small, his combat power is not weak. Don't suffer any losses!"

Liu Liangchen immediately followed the order, and his three or four hundred horses spread out everywhere, surrounding Nikan and his group firmly in the center.

The Qing army's meals these days have been very good. Take this lunch meal, meat bone soup + white flour cake + fat slices, the size of a palm, a thick piece of meat, two slices per person, and steamed buns are enough.

At this critical moment, the Tartars were still generous. They changed to two meals a day and changed to three meals a day, learning from Zheng Jun.

However, there were not many subordinates of Liu Liangchen who showed a smile, and some even couldn't help but look sad and looked sad. The meat slices at noon were very fragrant, but this might be their last meal.

Liu Liangchen gave a wink to several officers, who were all his confidants. He had also come to him with a look of sorrow on his face and sobbed.

They are an important support point on the Tongzhou battlefield, and it must be the focus of the Zheng army's attack. Just like the Tartars's appearance of not treating Han soldiers as humans, after this battle, I really don't know how many people can survive in the Green Flag of Tongzhou Town.

However, the Zheng army not only showed mercy to the Tartars, but also hated the Second Tartars very much. They just wanted to surrender, but the legendary "labor transformation" seemed to be unable to avoid them.

"Main Town, this is not a fight or a surrender. Brothers are really desperate. Zheng Jun is about to come. You can send a message and give me a way out for the brothers. What should we do?"

"What should I do? I'm going to give my loyalty to the Qing Dynasty." Liu Liangchen had a look of a loyal minister at the beginning. "Don't be confused. Have a few good meals and fight with Master Beile!"

"Main Town, brothers are really not trying to slander you. Are you really loyal to the Tartars? Zheng Zhilong has reached Tongzhou."

"Zhong Town, Zheng Zhilong, opposite, settled in Tianjin. If they don't do it once, they can fight again next year." As long as the Zheng family sent troops outside the pass, can the Qing Dynasty turn a blind eye?

As long as the Qing Dynasty sent troops to rescue outside the pass, they could immediately land in Tianjin by boat. This is a trap that cannot be untied!

Liu Liangchen looked at the anxious Green Camp generals beside him, and his expression did not seem to be a fraud. He thought in his heart that these people were afraid that they had really had a second thought to the Qing Dynasty. He then smiled and said, "Since you don't want to die for the Qing Dynasty, why not eat more and run south when you meet Zheng Jun later?"

The tone was like telling a joke. But a few Green Flag officers would not think that Liu Liangchen was joking.

"Escape south?"

"You are unwilling to die for the Qing Dynasty, and you are not afraid to surrender to the Zheng army. Then do you have any other way besides going south to seek the Ming Dynasty? Could you go to surrender to the bandits?"

Liu Liangchen's words were clearly talking about the generals in front of him, but in fact he was talking about himself. He just didn't look at the future of the Qing Dynasty, was unwilling to serve the Qing Dynasty, and did not dare to submit to the Zheng family, so he could only contact the elder brother in the south and Zhu Ming's Jinyiwei.
