Chapter 336 Entering Tongzhou(1/2)

"Go, go!"

In the early morning, smoke and dust in the south of Pinggu City rolled, the earth roared, and the three spirit cavalry were like three torrents, rapidly rushing towards the capital.

"Brother, keep in touch at any time. If you have any difficulties, you must notify your brother as soon as possible!"

Wang Tingchen, appointed as the vanguard of the right-wing army, clasped his fists at Xu Changqing and pulled up the mask of the veil between his mouth and nose. At this time, the freezing of heaven and earth had been much relieved. If he ran without wearing a mask for a while, he would be covered in dust on his face.

Xu Changqing also clasped his fists hard: "Brother Wang, keep in touch at any time, and be sure to be safe. Do not underestimate the enemy and advance rashly!"

"Hehe, brother knows, take care of it, let's see you later! Men, let's go!"

"Go, go~~"

Seeing Wang Tingchen and his personal soldiers quickly chasing their main force like a tiger and wolf, Xu Changqing also breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to look at Hong Chengchou and others at the top of Pinggu City.

Hong Chengchou was also staring at Xu Changqing and waved his hand vigorously.

Xu Changqing clasped Hong Chengchou deeply and waved to the soldiers beside him: "Go!"

"The general has an order, and the whole army sets off!"

"The general has an order, and the whole army sets off..."

As generals and officials at all levels quickly conveyed the orders, the 6,000 elite troops of the Model Army, together with more than 3,000 auxiliary soldiers, pushed nearly a thousand mule, horse and carts, began to rush towards the capital safely and orderly.

The hundreds of cruising around the team did not stop at night, and they were like birds, quickly scattering to all the main force.

After all, he was the top leader in the Ming Dynasty at this time, and Hong Chengchou had no problem in strategic and tactical arrangements.

At this time, the three main cavalry vanguards of the Ming army, Wang Tingchen led his main force to arrange the right side, Zu Dabi and their Jinzhou soldiers to arrange the left side, and the middle side were more than 2,000 elite cavalry from Hong Chengchou's personal soldiers to supervise the Biao Battalion.

The leader of this group of Superbiao camp was a deputy general from the Qin army. His surname was Zhou. He was very calm and low-key. When Xu Changqing was in Liaodong, he only met him twice before, but he never said a word. Therefore, the greatest extent to which this guy greeted people was laughing.

Even though Xu Changqing was at the peak of his life at that time, he had never come up to meet like others.

This also allowed Xu Changqing to have a deeper understanding of Hong Chengchou's foundation.

Anyone who doesn’t regard him Hong Chengchou as a figure will sooner or later pay a big price!

There are three guards in front of them, and the minds of many men from the Model Army have also been relieved a lot, and they are all quick.

Including Xu Changqing, Wu Sanmei and Hong Niangzi, they all rely on the '11' route and did not ride horses.

It's also shameful to say.

Xu Changqing has a considerable wealth at this time, but it is still too difficult to buy a horse. Moreover, it has nothing to do with this thing, and you can't buy it even if you have money.

Although Xu Changqing had a close relationship with Wang Pu, the Mongolian Tartars were all the more ill-hearted. Wang Pu had no choice but to flow slowly with Xu Changqing, and get more than ten or twenty horses a month, so as to accumulate slowly.

This made Zhang Hu's more than a thousand cavalry, Xu Changqing, stayed in the seaside camp north of Beitang, and was reluctant to release it. He really couldn't withstand such losses, and it was already the limit to not collecting it at night.

The weather is nice today and the sun is very soft.

In one morning, Xu Changqing and the model Junerlang had been marching for more than 30 miles, temporarily resting by a small river at the junction of Pinggu and Sanhe River, burying pots to make rice.

Xu Changqing actually doesn't like marching during the day after these adjustments. On the one hand, he has to stand against a big sun, and on the other hand, it is more core, and he really doesn't feel too secure.

That is, with Wang Tingchen in front of him, Xu Changqing could barely trust him, otherwise Xu Changqing would never have been so aggressive.

This is also impossible.

Cavalry fights infantry, it’s really like I’m beating my son.

Even if it is the training level of the model army, at this time

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

It is impossible to maintain the most stable battle formation sequence while moving forward at full speed, and you must have time to adjust.

"Report - the latest news on the left!"

"Report--Middle Road Battle Report!"

During the meal, news from all aspects of the front quickly summarized. There was nothing serious about it for the time being. Only some Tartar Rangers were found, but no main force of the Qing army was found.

After examining the battle report, Xu Changqing also relaxed a little and rubbed Wu Sanmei's little head with a smile: "Do you feel wronged if you didn't let you meet your second brother?"

Wu Sanmei was eating a piece of dried beef, her mouth was covered with oil, which was carefully prepared by the firefighters in Pinggu City before.

In fact, Xu Changqing did not intend to swallow the harvest of Pinggu City from the beginning because he could not eat it at all.

As the saying goes, "A snake swallows an elephant if it is not enough." If you don't have that big appetite, Xu Changqing will definitely not cause trouble for himself.

Of course, Xu Changqing has used many of the precious strategic materials in it, such as these beef.

The dried beef is not easy to bite, especially in this half-dried state. Wu Sanmei was eating it happily, and her posture was a bit unbeautiful. When she heard Xu Changqing's words, her pretty face turned red: "Brother, you hate it so much~~."

Xu Changqing smiled "haha" and hugged her hard in her arms, pressed her softly into her ear and said, "Third sister, thank you for your hard work."

How could Wu Sanmei not understand what Xu Changqing meant? She carefully tore off a piece of beef and stuffed it into Xu Changqing's mouth. She said with some emotion: "Brother, I'm fine, I can still hold on."

Xu Changqing couldn't help but hold Wu Sanmei tighter, and regardless of the oil stains on her mouth, he kissed her hard: "Sanmei, I must tell you if you have any discomfort, do you know?"

"Um!"

After having lunch with Wu Sanmei, Xu Changqing began to patrol the camp. After everyone rested for about a quarter of an hour, the team continued to move forward.

In fact, if there is room for choice, Xu Changqing wants to meet Wu Sangui, including Zu Erye Zu Dale, but in this state, time is really tight.

If the Ming army cannot lay the foundation and establish a support point in Tongzhou and even the capital in the shortest time, the Ming army will not have the initiative in this battle to serve the king!

Wu Sangui and Zu Erye were both old generals, so they naturally understood this. This was actually Xu Changqing's sincerity to these two masters.

Perhaps because the Qing army retreated around Tongzhou, the itinerary was quite smooth.

In the evening, Xu Changqing and the main force of the Model Army had already arrived at a hillside near the river at the junction of Tongzhou and Sanhe Rivers.

Wang Tingchen's camp was three or four miles west of this place, while the Qin army and Zu Dabi were between ten or twenty miles south, echoing from the beginning and end, and being able to rescue at any time.

The model army had just arrived in the camp, and Wang Tingchen rushed over and brought a roasted little fat lamb.

But in this state, Wang Tingchen dared not be arrogant. He must not drink too much wine. What was placed in front of him and Xu Changqing was a small pot of wine for each person.

"Changqing, the situation is a bit unoptimistic. The Tartars were too cautious and had no action. I wonder what bad things are being held in the dog days."

Wang Tingchen took a sip of wine and his face was a little serious.

The camping location chosen by Xu Changqing and the Model Jun at this time made Wang Tingchen feel very good. He had already won Xu Changqing's trust, at least part of it.

But the Qing army's ranged not far away is really unpleasant.

If it were on the familiar terrain in Liaodong, if these Qing army cavalry dared to play like this, Wang Tingchen would have had someone fight with them. But at this time, although this was the land of the Ming Dynasty, they were outsiders, and Wang Tingchen would not dare to rush it.

Xu Changqing nodded.

I have already adapted to this, and I have to admit that it is not as good as a human being. There is no need to slap the swollen face and pretend to be fat.

Not to mention Wang Tingchen's elite cavalry at this time, even Wu Sangui's "Yiding Tu Cavalry"

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

It would be impossible to get any good to fight these Qing army cavalry in this state!

People eat this bowl of rice from the womb.

"Brother Wang, what's the situation in Tongzhou? Is there any specific information?"

Xu Changqing looked at Wang Tingchen's eyes.

Wang Tingchen ate a big bite of mutton, spread the map, and pointed to Xu Changqing in detail, "Around twenty-one or two miles ahead of us, there is a village called Majiazhuang, which contains many Tartars and at least 10,000 or 20,000 Han slaves, but the specific man is not clear. The situation in Liujiazhuang 14 or 5 miles southwest of Majiazhuang has been found to be found. There are three more Niulu, the elites of the Yellow Banner, and the Kongjiazhuang here..."

Wang Tingchen introduced six or seven Zhuangzi to Xu Changqing in succession, and all of them were carefully marked.

These Zhuangzi are not ordinary rural areas, but the industries of the powerful people in the capital, occupying a huge area. Moreover, the Qing army has repeatedly entered the pass over the years, and these powerful people have also repaired the defense of Zhuangzi well, like large strongholds, firmly stuck on the way forward of the main force of the Ming army.

Just by doing this, there are four or five thousand, or even six or seven thousand Tatars in this area.

Xu Changqing frowned tightly, pondered without saying a word, and did not rush to express his opinion.

Wang Tingchen sighed and said, "Brother, what do you think? Should he do a vote first, or wait for the main force?"

Xu Changqing pondered: "Brother Wang, this ticket is probably not easy to do! No accident, either tonight or tomorrow morning, the Qing army will definitely take the initiative!"

"this……"

Wang Tingchen suddenly became clever, "Our main force is right behind, Tang Tong has sent troops, and Wang Pu is about to arrive. Do the Tartars still dare to fight us here?"

Xu Changqing said: "Brother Wang, you must strengthen your defense tonight, and don't be rash. Wait until you get through tonight, and we will see the situation clearly tomorrow morning before making a decision!"

"good!"

Wang Tingchen left quickly, and the Model Army also acted quickly and began to excavate and build defensive fortifications.

This is not because Xu Changqing is timid and does not want to take the initiative to attack, but because the situation in front of him is really strange!

Xu Changqing did not expect that Dorgon would arrange so many people in these villages in the suburbs of Tongzhou. After all, this place will soon become a war zone. If there is a slight mistake, these population and materials will definitely not be able to be kept.

But he made such arrangements, and his intentions were already obvious!

...

As expected, just when it was ugly, there were fierce shouts of killing sounds in the south, and the flames quickly soared into the sky.

Soon, Xu Changqing received a war report, and a Tartar came to secretly supervise the camp.
