"The Tartars ran away?"

Zheng Zhilong held up the Thousand Mile Mile Mile Mile, but he couldn't see it very well. The yellow dust in the battlefield ahead blocked his sight, but when he heard the Qing army escaped, he still made him smile.

Because it was Zheng Sen who sent people to report it to him.

"Don't worry, the prince is safe and sound!"

The person who came here asked Zheng Zhilong to breathe a sigh of relief, and Zheng Sen was fine. "Okay, okay. It's really hard for the prince to wear a strong and hold his own arrows and stones."

"Appoint the prince to integrate his troops on the spot, count the casualties, and constrain the remains of soldiers. As for the pursuit and suppression of the Tartars, let's teach them to Gan Hui."

This pursuit is just a matter of doing its best. The main force of the Tartars is the real Tartars army. They run fast one by one, and at most they can catch up with the backward Green Flag soldiers. They must be wary of the Tartars killing and retaliating.

For Zheng Zhilong, this battle was actually over. He didn't care about the subsequent results of the pursuit, even the food, supplies, guns and cannons left by the Tartars.

The Zheng army suffered a 20,000-00 field battle and more than 20,000 soldiers were defeated in the field, and there were more than 20,000 soldiers in the inner world. A head-on battle ended with the Zheng army's complete victory. This fact is Zheng Zhilong's biggest gain.

As long as this battle is spread, the Qing Dynasty's luck that rises like a tide will come to an abrupt end. When the second defeat and the third defeat will be reported one after another, the Qing Dynasty's arrogance will be destroyed again and again until the Tartars are pulled down from the world's most powerful overlord position.

Zheng Zhilong was guilty of not having much time left, and the great cause of destroying the Qing Dynasty was not completed. But he could have a heavy blow to the Qing Dynasty and gained more time for Zheng Sen and the Zheng family.

After the army won the battle in Yanzhou, Zheng Zhilong immediately asked Gan Hui to lead tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry and continued to pursue.

The Eight Banners and Tartars led by Ajige were hard to escape, but the territory they had just seized from the Ming army could not escape as well. The army marched straight into Xuzhou.

The agreement between the Qing Dynasty and Zhu Ming was that the area north of the Huai River was completely ceased to the Tartars. Let’s not talk about Xuzhou and Guide. The northern part of Huai'an Prefecture and the northern part of Fengyang Prefecture all became the territory of the Tartars. Bozhou, Suzhou, Yingzhou, Pizhou, Haizhou, there are five cities alone.

However, in the hands of the Zheng army, the Zheng army sent troops from southwest Shandong, and the front of the troops could directly threaten the entire territory of the Tartars on the Huai River.

Ajige entered Yanzhou on the way back to the army. One was to cooperate with Dorgon's overall strategy, regain the three prefectures in western Shandong and drive Zheng Zhilong back to Denglai. The other was to solve the concerns of the Qing army in Huaibei.

But he never expected that he would not eat mutton and instead made him slut. Yanzhou failed to defeat him, but instead asked Zheng Jun to enter Xuzhou.

Xuzhou is the key geographical location. If it is broken here, the Qing army will only be connected by land in the five prefectures in Huaibei. I am afraid that Haizhou, Pizhou and Suzhou will change their flags first.

After hanging with the Zheng family, the gentry and bureaucrats in the three states would definitely not want to do so, and the Qing Dynasty could not count on it. Then it would be a return to the Ming Dynasty.

Ajige knew the importance of Xuzhou, but he could not defend Xuzhou with his vest soldiers.

He asked the Zhang brothers to dismantle the remaining troops to defend Xuzhou, and quickly ran to Guide with his own men.

In the battle of Yanzhou, other troops suffered a considerable loss. Let’s not talk about the Green Banners soldiers. The Eight Banners Cavalry lost three or four thousand people, and the Manchu army inside was no less than two thousand, but Ajige felt very distressed.

How many people are there in total?

Although he knew that the continuous retreat was very harmful to morale and majesty, the Zheng army's musketeers were too sharp. On the way from Yanzhou to Xuzhou, the Qing army did not have a chance to fight back, but Ajige was undecided.

It was only then that he truly realized the psychology of Turge, Abatai and others.

It is not impossible to succeed if you attack and attack desperately, but the losses will be so great that the Eight Banners cannot bear it.

When this choice came to Ajige, he was also unable to make up his mind. The consequence of being unable to make up his mind was that Ajige could only lead the Eight Banners True Tatars to continuously improve their strategic strategies.

The Zheng army easily captured Xuzhou. The Zhang brothers and Hu Shangyou fled in panic. Han Shangliang was the most unlucky. After being arrested, he begged for surrender, but how could he survive? Yuan Shizhong, who led his troops south, even went to ask for instructions, but he killed him with one knife.

With the end of the Battle of Xuzhou, with Pizhou, Haizhou and Suzhou, they pulled off the dragon flag of the Qing Dynasty and replaced it with the sun and moon flag of the Ming Dynasty. The duel between the Zheng army and the Qing Tartars in Yanzhou was completely spread all over the world.

Everyone knows how brilliant the Eight Banners Horse Army in Ajige's hands had achieved against the Ming army before. It can be said that from outside Yanjing City to the bank of the Huai River, 700 to 80% of the huge territory were captured by them.

This was the real main force of the Qing Dynasty, and its combat effectiveness was really amazing. More than 100,000 Ming troops were defeated by their impact. So much so that there were already shameless literati in Yanjing City comparing this battle with the Battle of Xingyang when the Chu-Han battle.

Ajige's name is really impressive. Whether in the top leaders or among the people, his prestige has reached the peak of his life.

Even the "myth" that the Qing Dynasty soldiers were invincible was further confirmed, which made the Qing Dynasty's power rise straight!

But such an invincible lion was full of battles with the infantry, which was relatively small in Yanzhou. When the news came out, many people called it impossible!

The Zheng Zhilong army's guns and cannons are sharp, and it is true that even ten times more troops guarding the castle are difficult to lightly attack.

But no matter how sharp the Zheng army is, it is also an infantryman. In the plains and field battles, it can defeat such a mighty Eight Banners Cavalry. How is this possible?

But it cannot be true or false.

The gentry and bureaucrats from Haizhou, Pizhou and Suzhou came to Jinling to ask for an order, which proved this. The Zheng army flag flying above the city of Xuzhou also proved this.

For a time, the Eight Banners were defeated - the news that more than 20,000 Eight Banners horse army was defeated by 10,000 Zheng's army was spreading.

In Jiangnan in early March, in Jiangbei in early March, this is the most popular news, and it was told by countless officials and citizens. It blew like a breeze, blowing through every corner of the country, without any holes.

Countless people hope that their "study" can gain what benefits they can get from it, because it is very likely to be a big game with capital and life as a bet.

In the entire Jiangnan, many people have discussed whether to accommodate the three prefectures of Huaibei.

There is no need to say much about the consent faction, and the reasons for the opposition are also very tenable. The three states are all territories ceded by the Ming Dynasty. What is the reason why I am eager to return to the Ming Dynasty now is clear at a glance.

It is very simple for the Jinling imperial court to adopt these three states, but will they be asked to get into evil with the Zheng family because of this?

This was the territory that Zheng Zhilong personally took over, and the prince of the Zheng family was wearing a strong and holding a sharp edge and personally received arrows and stones.

Now the gentry and bureaucrats in these three states are willing to return to the clarity but not to obey Zheng. How similar is this to the Shangdang dispute that triggered the Battle of Qin and Zhao Changping in the late Warring States Period?

Dorgon in Yanjing City received an urgent report from Ajige to Guide on the fourth day of the March, followed by a 600-mile rush from Sun Zhixi, the governor of the Qing Dynasty Jianghuai.

——The Qing army was defeated in the Battle of Yanzhou.

Sun Zhixie took the position of Governor of Jianghuai because of Haoge's support, but he was so lucky.

Denlai was the first to serve as a member of the Denlai, and the Jianghuai was the last to serve as a member of the Denlai.

Originally, Jianghuai, which was located in one prefecture and five prefectures, had only two prefectures left.

But compared with the laughter of Sun Zhixie, this news shocked the entire Qing Dynasty even more.

A real big bomb made the entire Yanjing city silent, even more shocking than a thunderbolt on the sunny day. One hundred and twenty thousand Eight Banners' families lost their voices, and Dorgon, who was in his prime, had a few hairs on his head.

"Ajige, Ajige. Look at the good things he did. My reputation as a Qing Dynasty was destroyed by one thing, and it was destroyed by one thing." In Prince Rui's mansion, Dorgon beat his chest and stamped his feet in anger. The more than 20,000 Qing cavalry could not defeat the Zheng army, which was less than 20,000 people in the flat ground. What's the face that he could not defeat? "Ajige deserves to die! He deserves to die!"

All these words were said, which shows how angry Dorgon was.

But no matter how much anger is, it cannot be saved. In the defeat of Yanzhou, the rising momentum of the Qing Dynasty came to an abrupt end. If the Qing Dynasty had clearly outstripped the Ming army before, then the Qing Dynasty now could only be on par with the Ming Dynasty.

The Zheng family, which had not yet officially established a banner, had a status and influence that was originally lower than that of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but now it suddenly jumped and became the third strongest side by side with the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and instead surpassed the veteran Li Shun and the Daxi families.

When Dorgon thought of this, he felt so angry that he felt so painful.

Facing his civil and military officials, he did not hide his incompetence.

When Ajige overthrew the Northern Expedition Army of the Ming Dynasty with only 30,000 cavalry, he was as happy as he was now.

Moreover, there are reports that the reinforcements from the Zheng family and Fujian area did not go ashore in Denglai at all. Instead, they walked around Laizhou Bay and were heading towards Tianjin!

If Ajige did not lose, Dorgon would be confident to show his calmness when facing this news, but now he... really needs to consider whether he should draw the Eight Banners Bujia from Shanxi to return to the rescue.

Time passes by rapidly.

Ajige led his troops into Guide, and then rushed to Kaifeng without stopping to meet with Zu Zerun, who had already retreated from Qilu. The main force of the Zheng army also withdrew from Ziyang, but the army was relocated to Jining Prefecture, so Zu Zerun naturally wanted to withdraw his troops.

After receiving the news of Azige's defeat, Hauge also quickly chose to retreat from the city of Texas.

The three sieges of Qi and Lu initiated by Dorgon completely collapsed.

The Qing court stared at Jiningzhou tightly, and they didn't even have the energy to take care of Jinling anymore. Li Zichengjun, who was still resisting stubbornly in Guanzhong, and Zhengjun from Tianjin, made them want to have three eyes.

Zheng Zhilong gathered the canal ships in Jining Prefecture. The Ming army of Huai'an Prefecture had entered Pizhou and Haizhou, so he naturally would not tamper with the canal ships issue, so he successfully got what he wanted, and even a large number of ship workers.

Besides, Zheng Zhilong didn’t give money?

Soon after going out of Jining Prefecture, hundreds of ships had gathered together with people and ships. What was he trying to do?

This made the Qing court feel speculative, and it also made Kaifeng Ajige feel hurt.

It's March, the earth is back to spring, the ice and snow are completely melting, and the Grand Canal is already open. Zheng Zhilong can only rely on the canal to march to the next battle, but will he be able to have a lot of strength left?

"Reported to the Regent, the Zheng thief's military ships have exceeded 100, and they have arrived in Tianjin now."
