After all, Li Zicheng withdrew from the historical stage of fighting for the world, handed over everything in the Dashun Dynasty, quietly retired, and went to do business. The situation of fighting for the world changed drastically.

Originally, Zhuqizhu had to be arranged to garrison the front lines of Hanzhong, Yunyang, Nanyang and Ruzhou to prevent Li Zicheng from going crazy suddenly. Now, most of these garrisons are not needed anymore, at least Hanzhong and Yunyang do not need to garrison the troops.

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is the troops left by Li Zicheng. You should know that the Dashun Dynasty once exceeded one million. Even after losing consecutively to Jiannu, the number was nearly 600,000.

After Qin Banghan, Duke of Dingguo, received nearly 600,000 troops in one fell swoop, Yongshengchao's troops instantly exceeded one million.

Of course, this nearly 600,000 army is not a regular army. Except for the 50,000 elite cavalry and 100,000 infantry elites whom Li Zicheng relied most, the remaining 400,000 basically has little combat power.

Zhuqiu did not make up for the numbers, leaving all the more than 400,000 troops. He just ordered Qin Banghan to select 100,000 strong troops from the remaining more than 400,000 troops, and the others were transported to Bashu, Huguang, Jiangxi, Nanzhili and other places with abundant water resources to cultivate land and produce grain.

In this way, the troops of the Dashun Dynasty were reduced to 250,000. Zhu Qizhu directly named it the Qin army and divided the Qin army into five major legions, of which 50,000 elite cavalry were commanded by Qin Banghan, Duke Dingguo, and the remaining four legions were commanded by Liu Guoneng, Li Wanqing, Qin Bangping and Qin Minping.

Deputy generals such as Qin Yiming, Qin Gongming, Zhang Mingshi, and Zhang Dadou were also promoted to the commanders of the army, in charge of the Andong Army, Anxi Army, Annan Army and Anbei Army.

After the Dashun Dynasty received and reorganized the troops, Zhu Qizhu began to mobilize troops on a large scale and prepare to fight against Jiannu.

The 50,000 troops of the First Corps of the Southwest Army crossed the Qinling Mountains, entered Hanzhong and other places, and guarded the Yansui Line in Yulin, Xi'an.

The 50,000 troops of the Second Corps of the Southwest Army went directly from Yunyang to enter Henan Prefecture, guarding the front line of Tongguan, Luoyang.

The 50,000 troops of the Third Corps of the Southwest Army are still guarding Nanyang.

The 50,000 troops of the Fourth Army of the Southwest Army went north to guard Runing and Ruzhou from Huguang.

The first army of Huguang Army went directly from Jiangxi to guard Xuzhou.

The second army of Huguang Army also headed north from Jiangxi to guard Fengyang.

The 50,000 troops of the Third Corps of the Huguang Army went north from Anqing Prefecture to guard Huai'an.

This really scared Hong Chengchou and Monk Wu Sangui. Yongsheng Dynasty and Dashun Dynasty were as if they had agreed. At the same time, they mobilized more than 300,000 troops from Shaanxi, Henan and Nanzhili to press towards them. How could they not be afraid?

You know, they only have about 300,000 troops under their command, and most of them are newly recruited young and strong.

At this time, they didn't know that Li Zicheng had handed over everything from the Dashun Dynasty and left. The troops mobilized everywhere were all large troops under Emperor Yongsheng.

If they knew that these men were all army under Emperor Yongsheng, they would probably be even more scared. After all, most of Li Zicheng's subordinates were bandits, and their combat power was not as strong as theirs. Emperor Yongsheng's subordinates were all regular troops, and their combat power was stronger than that of Jiannu!

In fact, there is another thing they don’t know. These are not the troops that attack their attack at all, but the troops that prevent them from attacking. The troops that really attack their attack are still behind.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Qizhe ordered Duke Qin Banghan to lead the Andong Army, the Anxi Army, 50,000 Qin cavalry and 100,000 Qin army infantry to gather in Fugu City, Yansui Town, and approach Baodezhou, northwest of Taiyuan Prefecture.

At the same time, he ordered the Minister of War Sun Chuanting to lead the Annan Army, Anbei Army, the Fifth Corps of the Southwest Army and 100,000 Qin Army infantry to gather in the county town of Gong County, Henan Prefecture, and toward the Sishui and Rongyang of Kaifeng Prefecture.

At this moment, Monk Wu Sangui Kexi was even more frightened.

They didn't know whether it was the Dashun Dynasty or the Yongsheng Dynasty. They only knew that the army that had suppressed them was less than 200,000, and the two of them had only 200,000 troops in total.

This is an obvious offensive situation. It is impossible for them to mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops to play and go back.

Sure enough, immediately afterwards, Qin Banghan, Duke of Ding, led an army of 170,000 across the Yellow River and directly surrounded Baodezhou Prefecture City.

At this time, there were only 10,000 troops in Baodezhou City, and Shang Kexi did not dare to send troops to support him, because he had only 100,000 troops in his hands. If he had fewer troops, he would not be his opponent at all. If he had to suppress all of them, he would have fought a decisive battle with them.

There were more than 100,000 to more than 200,000, and most of his subordinates were recruits, so he didn't dare to rush up and start a decisive battle with them.

If he loses the decisive battle, the entire Shanxi will be lost. At that time, even if he escapes back, the Regent Dorgon will cut him down.

He could only abandon Baodezhou and disregard it. He deployed defenses in Hequ, Ningwu, Lanxian, Xinzhou and other places, and at the same time sent an urgent report to the capital. The enemy's army of more than 200,000 was approaching, and I couldn't stand it at all!

If Qin Banghan was attacking wildly regardless of everything, he could not withstand anything else. With the equipment of Andong and Anxi, his 100,000 troops would not have been able to do it, not to mention that Qin Banghan had 50,000 elite cavalry and 100,000 infantry under his command.

However, Qin Banghan did not launch a fierce attack at all costs. After taking Paudezhou, he stopped moving. He didn't know whether he wanted to surround the site to attack the support or wait for other places to launch an attack.

Soon, his intention seemed to be exposed, because shortly after he took Paudezhou, Sun Chuanting began to lead his army to attack Sishui and Rongyang.

Wu Sangui agreed not to send troops to support him because he only had about 100,000 troops under his command. Nearly 200,000 troops rushed up in one fell swoop. How could he play with him?

If he leads all his troops to rush forward, it will be fine if he wins. Once he loses, Henan will not be able to save it, and the Regent Dorgon will also cut him down.

The Regent Dorgon gave them a death order, and ordered them to defend Shanxi, Henan and Shandong to the death!

He did not dare to act recklessly, and he could only send troops to Heyin, Rongze, Zhengzhou, Zhongmu and other places like Shang Kexi, in order to use the city to slow down the enemy's attack speed, and at the same time send an urgent report to the capital, asking Dorgon to send troops to support him.

It should be said that the tactics he adopted were not a problem, because he could not beat Sun Chuanting's 170,000 troops. Even if he led all his subordinates to rush up, he would just deliver vegetables to them.

Problem, it’s useless for him to be so guarded!

Who is Sun Chuanting? He is the most powerful commander in the Ming Dynasty.

He was able to overthrow Gao Yingxiang with 20,000 Qin troops, and chased Li Zicheng without any way to go to heaven and earth. What's more, he had not only 20,000 Annan Army and Anbei Army elites, but also 50,000 Southwest Army and 100,000 Qin infantry under his command.

If he launches a fierce attack regardless of everything, with these 170,000 troops, he can even go all the way to the capital!

However, he did not launch a fierce attack at all costs. After he occupied Sishui and Rongyang, he did not stop. He led more than 100,000 troops to steadily and advance in groups, slowly took down Heyin and Rongze, and surrounded Zhengzhou City in one fell swoop.
