The sea breeze blows into the land and there is a faint salty smell. On a plain 70 miles northwest of Tianjin Wei, the three battalions of the Ponu Army's Yixing camp siege of Liu Zongmin's troops entered the twelfth day. During this period, the Dashun Army broke through several times and was defeated by the Ponu Army. The casualties of the three thousand people made tens of thousands of Dashun Army dare not move. Liu Zongmin, the general of the Dashun Army's power, originally wanted to lead troops to stop the landing of the Ponu Army's Yixing camp, but was surrounded by tens of thousands of cavalry of the Ponu Army. The Dashun Army's long-distance attack

He left in a hurry, but so many soldiers only brought food for three days. Daliang Town where the Dashun Army is located is not short of water, and he can dismantle the wood of abandoned houses as firewood when cooking. As the weather gets hotter, it is appropriate to sleep in the open air. As the time of being surrounded has increased, the original Ming army soldiers in the Dashun Army gradually could not bear the hunger and began to escape outside the camp of the Po Nu Army in the night. At the beginning, Liu Zongmin, the general of the Dashun Army, was angry but did not stop him.

This is because the Dashun Army has been surrounded by the Ming army more than once during many years of war, and every time there are more or less deserters. Liu Zongmin may not be so kind to escape on the battlefield, he will immediately order the killing of deserters. Descendants appear in the dark night, and the Dashun Army is still afraid of pursuing and escaping to attract attacks from the Ponu Army. Although the Ponu Army does not like night battles, judging from the results of the Dashun Army breaking through the night a few days ago, the Ponu Army still has strong attack power in the night battle. Liu Zongmin didn't want to care at first, but when he was short of food, he was unwilling to care. After all, he would run one more person.

There was a bite missing. When Liu Zongmin found that only the old camp soldiers were left, he realized that something was wrong. But at this time, tens of thousands of old camp soldiers were watching him. Liu Zongmin could choose to defend the camp. It was said that it was camp, but in fact there was not even a tent. The soldiers of the old camp of the Dashun Army were waiting for rescue in Daliang Town. General Quan Liu Zongmin knew very well that the message cavalry he sent could break through the Slave Army to patrol the scout cavalry. The main force of the central cluster of the Slave Army gathered in the capital. Zhang Tong, the chief general of the Conquering Yixing Camp, was transferred to Tianjin Guard by General Zhang, and presided over the battle against Liu Zongmin's troops of the Dashun Army.

The army of the Battle of Yixing camp has always been a surprise soldier of the Pou Nu Army on the sea. As the main force of the Dashun Army defeated westward, the commander Zhang Ping'an began to look at the puppet court of the Southern Ming Dynasty. In order to achieve this goal, the main force of the Battle of Yixing camp must be transferred to the Taiwan camp. To this end, more than 100,000 troops of the five battle camps of the Pou Nu Army were concentrated in a radius of hundreds of miles around Daliang Town, Tianjin. Before Zhang Tong left the capital, the commander of the Pou Nu Army, Zhang Ping'an, told Zhang Tong that the general of the Dashun Army, Liu Zongmin, could be arrested, and if he could not catch the living mouth, he would be killed on the battlefield. Zhang Ping'an knew very well that Liu Zongmin was of no use to the Pou Nu Army. Even if he caught the living mouth, he would be handed over to the Ming court to behead him.

The artillery array was set up on the west side of the Dashun Army, and the 370 artillery black holes were aimed at the 10,000 Dashun Army camp. Sixty thousand cavalrymen of each unit were arranged around the Dashun Army and were preparing to launch a general attack on the enemy. When the Dashun Army was about to launch a general attack on the enemy, a white flag suddenly appeared in the Dashun Army camp. The sudden change of the Dashun Army really puzzled Zhang Tong, the commander-in-chief who dispatched the army, was very confused. However, the ability to win without fighting, really reduced the trouble of the Po Nu Army. Commander-in-chief Zhang Tong ordered the Dashun Army to send people to discuss the surrender. Soon, Liu Zongmin, general of the Dashun Army, sent a messenger and proposed the conditions for surrender. Liu Zongmin said that he could lead his troops to surrender the Po Nu Army, hoping that the Po Nu Army would retain the opportunity for his subordinates to continue serving the Po Nu Army in the future.

After hearing Liu Zongmin's surrender conditions, Zhang Tong almost laughed out loud. Before he left the capital, Marshal Zhang specifically instructed that the old generals of the trespass all had secret tricks to surrender when the situation was unfavorable. His approach was nothing more than to surrender first and ask to keep the integrity of his team, and then find an opportunity to escape the crisis. The Dashun Army has preserved its strength through surrender many times since Li Zicheng, and then raised the banner of rebellion. This trick was used by Li Zicheng many times, and Zhang Zizhong, the emperor of Daxi in Sichuan. It seems that Liu Zongmin regarded the Desert Army as a deceptive Ming army and once again used the life-saving method of surrendering in the battle. The commander Zhang Tong, the commander, used it in front of Liu Zongmin's messenger.

After pondering for a long time, he agreed to Liu Zongmin's request for surrender. However, Commander Zhang Tong proposed his own conditions and asked General Liu Zongmin, General Dashun Quan, to hand over the battle knife to him. Looking at the back of the messenger of the Dashun Army, Zhao Sidao, the chief of staff of the Conqueror of the Conqueror Zhang Tong, could not help but sigh softly. Although Zhao Sidao did not know what Zhang Dashen said to Zhang Tong, Zhao Sidao, who was very familiar with Zhang Tong's style, still heard a different connotation from Shangguan's tone. Commander Zhang Tong was a general who was very good at accepting advice from his subordinates. When discussing military affairs in the Conqueror Zhang Zheng, Zuo Erya and Fu Ruige were often able to lead the strategy of the military discussion.

But Zhang Tong was able to win the support of his subordinates and lead the Yixing Camp to win one battle after another. Today, Zhang Tong's tone was too slow, which meant that Zhang Dutong had other plans for Liu Zongmin's surrender. Sure enough, Zhang Tong turned his face to order Zhao Sidao, and immediately arrested Liu Zongmin once he confirmed Liu Zongmin's identity and prepared to attack. After hearing this order from the commander Zhang Tong, Zhao Sidao sighed again in his heart that there would be any commander. It was obvious that Zhang Tong saw through Liu Zongmin's trick of surrendering and planned to trick his opponent. Zhao Sidao immediately arranged the orders of each department and made arrangements before the war. Liu Zongmin, the general of the Dashun military, received news that the Slave Army allowed him to surrender.

Later, he personally led 300 cavalry to the position where the general of the Pou Army General Zhang Tong was located. It is not difficult to identify the place where the general of the Pou Army General was located. A slightly smaller black wolf-dowed Japanese battle flag next to the big flag of the Pou Army was obviously larger than that of other military battle flags. Zhou Xing, deputy commander of the Information Department of the Battle Camp, received the military order for Zhang Tong to capture Liu Zongmin, specially found several deserters of the Dashun Army old battalion to let them identify Liu Zongmin. Before Liu Zongmin's cavalry had approached, the surrendered Dashun army soldiers recognized the leading general, Liu Zongmin, the general of the Dashun Army. Of course, the transactions captured in front of the formation belonged to the Intelligence Department. These good men trained by Qian Mingrong, the chief of the Guards Battalion, successfully captured Liu Zongmin with the cooperation of the scout cavalry.

Then, the horn of the attack of the Ponu Army was sounded, and the artillery team replaced the live ammunition under the command of Yang Kui to open fire at the main camp of the Dashun Army. The Dashun Army was hit by the sudden artillery fire of the Ponu Army at this time. They never expected that the Ponu Army would attack them. In addition, General Liu Zongmin, the general of Quan, was not in charge of the command of the Dashun Army, and the position of the Dashun Army in panic was soon swallowed up by the black cavalry tide. Zhang Ping'an, the Duke of China in the capital, recently became a lobbyist, and the target of his persuasion was Li Yan, the captured general of the Dashun Army. The Dashun Army's military system was not completely straightened out, and the subordinates of each subordinate were almost their own direct troops. Li Yan's subordinates came.

From the soldiers in his hometown, Hongniang's wife's army was a woman who was in trouble along the way where the Dashun Army passed. Hongniang was injured and captured during the battle. Her injured wife's army was treated with the Military Medical Office of the Ponu Army. In particular, the Traditional Chinese Medicine Office of the Ponu Army had a large number of female guards, which comforted the captured Women's army's panic. Not only was the Ponu Army treated by the Ponu Army, but Li Yan's injured subordinates received good treatment regardless of their position. Li Yan was not a fool. Shortly after being captured, Hongniang was sent to the camp where Li Yan was imprisoned. He treated them with such favorable treatment. Li Yan speculated that the Ponu Army might want to surrender to him.

Sure enough, when Hongniang was able to ride a horse, they were sent to Zhangjiazhuang outside Xizhimen. Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pou Nu Army, did not rush to summon Li Yan and his wife directly, but sent all their subordinates to the south of Zhangjiazhuang to build a camp independently. Li Yan and his wife and their captured subordinates were treated as auxiliary soldiers of the Pou Nu Army, and there was no difference between them and auxiliary soldiers of the Pou Nu Army. At first, Li Yan and Hongniang and his wife thought that the Pou Nu Army was particularly favorable to them, but Hongniang sent their female soldiers to talk to the Pou Nu Army who were guarding them, and they quickly got the answer.

.The biggest disadvantage of this man is that he cannot withstand the temptation of beautiful women. These soldiers quickly handed over the details with the beautiful women's army. The champion learned that they could eat mutton a day, not the food for the Ponu Army soldiers. According to the Ponu Army regulations, the soldiers in the War Barracks must eat two meals a day, with enough food and vegetables, and the food they gave them was worse than that of the Ponu Army soldiers. The Ponu Army arranged their status based on military merits on the battlefield. Even a new recruit who had just joined the army, as long as he made contributions on the battlefield, he could get the corresponding land at home.

What surprised Li Yan even more was that all the soldiers of the Pou Nu Army were literate and could recite the Thousand Characters. Li Yan had a scholarly reputation, but he had heard of the bold words of Duke of China Zhang Ping'an and Zhang Ping'an to educate the world. Unexpectedly, he actually saw Duke of China turn this bold promise into reality. Although Li Yan's status in the Pou Nu Army was not low, after Emperor Li Zicheng entered the capital, he ignored all Li Yan's suggestions. Prime Minister Niu Jinxing of the Dashun Dynasty several times to Emperor Li Zicheng.

The slander said that Li Yan was sent to Shandong to guard against the possibility of the Southern Ming expedition. It was only a major change in the Shanhaiguan war that Li Zicheng's decision to drive Li Yan away failed. The decision to transfer wealth to Henan was originally the errand of Prime Minister Niu Jinxing, but he did not expect to be robbed by the Po Nu Army near Gaoyang, Zhili. This matter had nothing to do with Li Yan. In order to shirk his responsibility, Niu Jinxing complained to Emperor Li Zicheng, saying that it was the general Li Yan who neglected the military situation and sat down to see a large amount of wealth and goods being robbed by the Po Nu Army.

When Niu Jinxing's memorial was passed to Shanhaiguan, the Ponu Army had already fought with the Dashun Army. Emperor Dashun Li Zicheng was too busy to take care of himself to make Li Yan escape. General Li Yan, the general of the Dashun Army, was very prestigious in the Dashun Army. Naturally, someone sent a message to Li Yan. As a general of the Dashun Army who was left behind in the capital, he was extremely shocked when he learned that Niu Jinxing had repeatedly framed him and put him to death. However, the main force of the Dashun Army fell into a hard battle with the Ponu Army at Shanhaiguan. Li Yan, who was considering the overall situation, tried to suppress the anger in his heart, and did not write a memorial to Emperor Dashun Li Zicheng. Li Yan endured and aroused the anger of the Hongniang. She had asked Prime Minister Niu Jinxing several times to ask for an explanation from Prime Minister Niu Jinxing, but was stopped by Li Yan. However, the seeds of hatred gradually grew in the hearts of Li Yan and his wife. (To be continued)
