Outside the pass, after the Qing army was defeated in Gaizhou, 50,000 Chahar cavalry and more than 40,000 Korchin cavalry retreated to the front line of Haizhou.

In addition, there were originally 30,000 troops outside the pass, and the Qing army still had 120,000 troops.

However, in the Battle of Gaizhou, the Manchurian headquarters suffered heavy losses, which caused a great blow to the Qing army. The morale was shaken and the morale was sluggish. More than 100,000 Qing troops faced the Wu Yue army, but they did not dare to move forward again.

In September, after the Wu Yue army recovered Gaizhou, the vanguard advanced to Tashan, and the partial army seized the Sancha River mouth and established a forward fortress.

In addition, 30,000 Korean troops arrived at Lianshan Pass and threatened the Qing army's flanks.

Faced with the overwhelming embarrassment of the Wu Yue army, Yue Le was excited and sent troops to set up the formation again. He sent the Han army to the Huangqi Gushan Liu Zhiyuan, and led three thousand Han army flags and seven thousand Green Camp troops to march westward to Jinzhou and Ningyuan to prevent the Wu Yue army from cutting off the western Liaoning Corridor and cutting off the supply within the pass.

Then, he ordered Beilejidu to lead 20,000 Korchin cavalry, 5,000 Green Camp troops to reinforce Lianshan Pass, and another 15,000 Manchu and Han infantry, stationed in Shengjing, Liaoyang, Hetuara and other cities. He led 60,000 Mongolian cavalry and 3,000 Manchu cavalry to station on the front line of Haizhou.

Due to the large number of Qing army troops, Yue Le gradually stabilized his position after retreating to Haizhou and began to use the cavalry advantages to send a small group of cavalry to infiltrate southwards and attack the Wu Yue army in the Gaizhou area.

At this time, in the Qing army camp in Haizhou, Yue Le was standing in the commander's tent, staring at the map, and behind him were a group of Manchu and Mongolian generals.

Yue Le turned around and cheered everyone up: "Although the defeat in Gaizhou is painful, we still have more than 100,000 troops after all, and the barbarians dare not rashly advance into the Liaohe Plain! This place is flat, unlike Gaizhou and Liaodong. The barbarians really dare to fight. I am interested in cavalry and can fight."

On the Liaohe Plain, the Qing cavalry came and went without a trace. The Wu and Yue army went from Gaizhou to Shengjing for more than 400 miles. It was not easy for the infantry to reach the city under the surveillance of the cavalry.

When the generals heard the words, they nodded slightly and gradually calmed down.

At this time, Yue Le was about to continue laying out, but the curtain suddenly opened, and a gust of cold wind poured in, and the generals looked at each other.

"Ledu!" Yue Le couldn't help but frown. The person who came was Ledu, the son of Jirgalang, Prince of Durominjian. Others should be in Beijing and did not want to appear suddenly in Haizhou.

Ledu entered the tent, followed by a group of blue armored soldiers and a third-rank official.

This made Yue Le's fear change. He knew that it should be the capital and that the will came. Oboi, who was beside him, lowered his head and took a step back.

Yue Le's face was sunk, but he immediately returned to calm. He was responsible for the defeat of Gaizhou, but mainly Oboi underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly. At most, he was removed from the title of Prince of Political Affairs. The mess in Liaodong still needs to be cleaned up, and he still had the opportunity to make meritorious service due to crimes.

At this time, Ledu glanced at everyone in the tent, and the blue armored soldiers behind him held the hilt of the knife, blocking the door of the tent, staring at everyone.

Ledu said in a deep voice: "Tell the Emperor's will!"

The Manchu official next to him immediately unfolded the yellow scroll and shouted loudly: "Recruit the Prince of An, Yue Le, and return to the capital to obey the orders, and order the chief of the guardian army, Oboi, to temporarily serve as General Shengjing, and to preside over military affairs outside the pass."

Yue Lewen, looking disbelief, he reacted and suddenly turned back to Obai.

Oboi had already received the news from Jirgalang in advance, so he had known that the court had placed all the responsibility on Yue Le.

"Obai, you are harming me!" Yue Le was extremely angry.

Oboi was not willing to be outdone, "Slave, I don't know what the prince means."

Ledu said in a deep voice: "Prince An, hand over the seal and follow me to the capital!"

~~~~~~~

Liaodong, Gaizhou front line.

The mouth of Sancha River, which is the mouth of Liaohe River, is still a large wasteland now.

In September, after the great victory in Gaizhou, the Wu Yue army occupied this place, built a wharf and a water village, and built a fortress, as a forward stronghold for the Wu Yue army to advance along the Sancha River toward the heart of Liao.

At this time, a team of cavalry arrived at the mouth of Sancha River. Zhao Ming held the reins of the horse, watched the rolling river water, and poured into the Bohai Sea.

Later generations were called Yingkou, but at this time it was just an alluvial plain without people and a river beach.

"Your Highness, the captured war horses are temporarily kept here." Xie Qian raised the horse whip and pointed at the distance.

Zhao Ming looked along the large river beach of his fingers and saw war horses everywhere on both sides of the Sancha River. He smiled and said, "It seems that there are many horses!"

"Report to your Highness, there are about 10,000 horses. There could have been more, but many war horses were injured and washed away by Qingshui River, so they only got these war horses." Xie Qian said modestly, but his face was full of lust.

Zhao Ming nodded slightly and asked, "What is the situation outside the pass after the Battle of Gaizhou?"

Xie Qian's face darkened when he heard the words, and said seriously: "Your Highness, you are defeated by the Qing army in Gaizhou. Unfortunately, the main force of the Qing army still exists. In addition, the Liaohe Plain is flat, and the terrain is flat. The ministers lack cavalry and dare not advance rashly, so the vanguard stops at the line of Tashan."

The Wu Yue army's infantry was powerful, but if they were fighting in the northern plains without cavalry assistance, even the most powerful infantry would be at risk of raids and food outlets being cut off.

Zhao Ming heard the words and said in a deep voice: "Have you ever selected soldiers and conducted cavalry training?"

Xie Qian said: "Choose cavalry is a matter for the military and officials, and I have no right to train them by myself!"

Zhao Ming nodded, looked at Xie Qian with praise, and smiled and said, "It is urgent to follow the power of things. The Lone King promises you to select 10,000 soldiers as soon as possible and conduct training."

"No!" Xie Qian immediately clasped his fists.

Zhao Ming then raised his whip and said, "Go! Go to the camp to take a look!"

~~~~~~~

There is a bay east of Shengjing and south of Xingkai Lake, which is Vladivostok.

This place is located east of the Jurchens' nest in Jianzhou, and belongs to the territory of the Jurchens in Haidong. However, with the rise of the Qing Dynasty, all Jurchens and savages outside the pass have surrendered to the Qing Dynasty.

At the beginning of the year, Zhao Ming raised an army and captured Zhenjiang, the Qing army learned that Zhao Ming had a flowering bullet. Then Hong Chengchou returned to Beijing and went to the pass outside the pass in secret to reach the sea cucumber power.

Now, there is a camp here, with more than 2,000 Qing troops stationed and a shipyard.

At this time, a sea boat was docked at the sea cucumber, and the boat boards were on the dock. A group of Qing soldiers immediately boarded the ship and moved a bucket of cargo down.

The navy of Wuyue Kingdom was strong and blocked the waterway for the Qing Dynasty to go to sea. The navy of Manchu was trapped in the Bohai Sea and did not dare to come out. It was difficult for ships traded by various countries to reach the Qing Dynasty.

This made it impossible for the Qing Dynasty to obtain materials through maritime trade.

The Qing Dynasty was dominant in the north, with great land and abundant resources. Generally speaking, it did not require overseas things, but there were a few things. Not only were the Qing Dynasty sparse, but also the Ming Dynasty, which were copper and sulfur and sulphur needed to make gunpowder.

Now, both the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty equipped firearms in large quantities, requiring copper to cast artillery, as well as key components of flintlock rifles, and also requiring a large number of sulfur and sulphur to make gunpowder.
