Taking advantage of Dorgon's opportunity to care about his head and not worry about his butt, Li Guodong led two thousand cavalry and heavy cavalry out of the camp from the west of the camp, detoured to the area near Daming Mansion, and then walked southward, detoured by Qizhou, and then headed east towards Gaoyang to prepare to rescue Gaoyang's soldiers and civilians.

Two thousand and seven hundred cavalrymen were riding good horses like Wuzhumuqin horses and Arabian horses, and they were also good horses like Jinzhou horses and Hequ horses. They only took one night to reach three miles south of Gaoyang City in the early morning. Naturally, along the way, the cavalry who did not close the whistle at night without closing the whistle, would have to fight the Qing army's whistle cavalry with scores. After ensuring safety, the cavalry rushed to Gaoyang.

After Li Guodong's 2,700 cavalry arrived in Gaoyang, the Qing army of the Han Eight Banners did not notice it at all.

The army temporarily rested in the south of the city. Li Guodong personally brought a few people to observe the movement inside and outside Gaoyang City. He found that the Qing army camp was in order. Gaoyang City had not been broken by the Qing army, but a Yuliang Road had been pushed to the top of the city. The bastions on both sides had been destroyed. There were many corpses of Baoyi Aha and the Han Eight Banners Qing soldiers under the Yuliang Road. It seemed that Gaoyang City was in danger, and the city had to suffer a lot of losses.

Through observation, Li Guodong knew that Zhang Shiwen did not know how to break the Yuliang Road. He only knew that at the location where the Qing army advanced, he built a brick wall inside to block the enemy, but he did not know how to break the Yuliang Road.

"Lord, are we going to steal the camp?" Han Dashan asked.

"You can't steal the camp. Fake slaves are better at defending themselves than real slaves. If our army goes to steal the camp, wouldn't it be a trap?" Li Guodong opposed going to steal the camp.

The method of stealing the camp can no longer be used. Kong Youde and his team were arranged more closely than the defense of the Qing army camp, and they could not find any opportunity to steal the camp. After all, Kong Youde and his team were originally the Ming army, and they were also elite troops killed by the Later Jin Dynasty. When the old slave attacked Jinzhou, the army of Dongjiang Town was closely defending, and the Later Jin army could not find any flaws and could only attack for force. In the end, they were defeated and retreated by Dongjiang Town.

The Han Eight Banners Army was a headache, but the headache was that they were originally Han troops and were familiar with the Han tactics. Because they joined the Qing army, they had the fierceness of the Qing army and sharp firearms. This is why Li Guodong was not afraid of the Eight Banners but was afraid of the Eight Banners.

"What should we do? We have come here. Wouldn't we fight with the fake slave?" Han Dashan asked.

"Let Jiannu retreat without stealing the camp. We can destroy the Yuliangdao." Li Guodong pointed to Yuliangdao, who was piled up to the top of the city and said.

The Qing army returned to the camp to rest at night and suspended the siege, but there were hidden sentries around the Yuliang Road to observe, which was used to prevent the defenders in the city from rushing out of the city to destroy the Yuliang Road. Once a defender was found to rush out of the city, the Qing army of the Han Eight Banners would immediately come up, and a fierce battle would be launched under the Yuliang Road. Fighting outside the city is not good for the defenders, and the attacking party can take the opportunity to consume the precious forces of the defenders.

However, Kong Youde did not expect that the cavalry who came to rescue Gaoyang had arrived. Suddenly, a team of powerful heavy cavalry came, which was enough to have hundreds of ways to destroy the Yuliang Road.

Li Guodong ordered: "Attack Yuliangdao! Destroy Yuliangdao that the fake slave repaired!"

Two thousand seven hundred cavalry whistled and rushed straight to Yuliangdao.

There were more than 500 secret sentries left by the Qing army outside the city. If these people were more than enough to deal with the defenders from the city, they had no way to face the iron cavalry that suddenly came to the front of them. The Ming cavalry rushed to the Qing army of the Han Eight Banners like a whirlwind, slaughtering like a melon and chopping vegetables, and in a blink of an eye, they killed all the five hundred Qing soldiers.

The shouts of killing outside the city attracted the attention of the defenders in the city. Torches were lit on the top of the city. The defenders found that an elite cavalry suddenly appeared was killing the Qing soldiers under the city, and in a blink of an eye, they killed all the Qing soldiers.

"Reinforcements! It's our reinforcements here!" Seeing the flag under the city, Gaoyang's military and civilians were overjoyed.

The Qing army camp was alarmed, and bonfires were lit in the camp. The Qing soldiers who were rushing to get up rushed out of the camp and rushed towards Gaoyang with torches in their hands.

Of course, Li Guodong would not give the Han Eight Banners Qing army a chance to form a formation. Before dawn, the cavalry suddenly attacked the Qing soldiers who were moving, killing the Han Eight Banners Qing soldiers, blood flowing into rivers and corpses all over the field.

"Caughter! Youming Dog Cavalry!" The defeated Han Eight Banners soldiers reported to Kong Youde.

"It's broken!" Kong Youde shouted, "Minggou reinforcements have arrived!"

While talking, he heard a earth-shaking sound coming from the direction of Gaoyang City. The Yuliang Road built by the Qing army had spent a lot of manpower and material resources to collapsed. It was Li Guodong who asked someone to bury gunpowder in the Yuliang Road and blow the Yuliang Road into ruins.

"Open the door quickly, we are going to enter the city!" Li Guodong shouted while standing outside the city gate.

Zhang Shiwen found that it was Li Guodong who was calling the gate under the city, so he ordered: "Open the city gate quickly and let General Li enter the city!"

Two thousand seven hundred cavalry and one hundred Ye were not taken into the city, and the Qing soldiers of the Han Eight Banners outside were rushing towards Gao Yang. After Li Guodong entered the city, the city gate was immediately closed and the suspension bridge was pulled up.

Sun Chengzong, who was awakened in the middle of the night, left the mansion in person to welcome Li Guodong's arrival.

"General Li rushes thousands of miles to help me, Gao Yang, and save tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians. Please accept my bow!" The white-haired Sun Chengzong bowed and gave a big gift.

"Gei Master Sun must not!" Li Guodong quickly knelt in front of Sun Chengzong on one knee and bowed, "You are Li's benefactor and Master Ming, how can you give this great gift? Li can't bear it!"

Sun Chengzong helped Li Guodong up: "General Li is resourceful and defeated Jiannu repeatedly. I just helped a little. General Li planned ahead and built Gaoyang City. He personally led his army to rescue him, saving 30,000 soldiers, civilians and hundreds of people in Gaoyang City. Such a great kindness, how can I not afford to pay my respects?"

It was already dawn. When the soldiers and civilians in the city learned about the arrival of Li Guodong's reinforcements, they rushed to see the majestic posture of the Jinyang cavalry.

If the people of the Ming Dynasty are happy, it means that the Qing army is unhappy.

Outside the city, there was a burst of lament in Kong Youde's camp. Originally, Gaoyang was already a ripe peach, and with a slight touch, it could fall into the Qing army's bag, but now, a hard walnut suddenly came. If the Qing army bit it again, it would be afraid that it would knock off its teeth.

"It's a waste of fighting! This month's fight is a waste of fighting!" Kong Youde was furious.

Although Dorgon made a major mistake, the Ming reinforcements successfully entered Gaoyang City, and there was sufficient food and grass in Gaoyang City, it was estimated that it would be no problem to defend for another year. Originally, Gaoyang City had a strong city defense, and Kong Youde only built a Yuliang Road, which consumed the strength of the defenders in the city. Now a new force of nearly 3,000 people entered the city, and Yuliang Road was blown up again. All the siege battles in front were in vain. It should be that Dorgon was too careless that Li Guodong found an opportunity to sneak into the city and blow up Yuliang Road.

But did Kong Youde dare to say that it was Dorgon's responsibility? When he returned to Liaodong, Huang Taiji pursued Gao Yang's defeat, and Dorgon could only lead Kong Youde to take the blame.

Kong Youde didn't know how to withstand Huang Taiji's overwhelming anger, and he didn't dare to order another attack. Li Guodong, who was good at defending the city, entered the city. If he continued to fight, he would have to lose his troops in vain.

"Report this to Prince Rui!" Kong Youde ordered.

Before Kong Youde's messenger arrived at Dorgon's camp, the Qing army's scouts and cavalry had already reported Li Guodong's reinforcements into Gaoyang City and blown up Yuliangdao to Dorgon.
