Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

"Your Majesty, something serious has happened. I have just received news that Li Zicheng has sent five thousand cavalry south. They are almost reaching Zhuozhou. Judging from their posture, they are heading straight for us!"

"I found out that the general leading the Chuang army is the nephew of Li Zicheng, a tiger named Li Guo."

Wang Guoxing was sweating profusely.

After receiving the news, he hurried back and killed two horses along the way.

Inspector Zhu You stood up and said: "Map!"

Fang Zheng, with his quick eyes and quick hands, took down the map before Wang Chengen could and spread it on the desk.

Zhu Youjian looked at the map and said:

"My eldest companion, summon the ministers to discuss matters immediately."

Well, you old man Fang, you took advantage of your martial arts skills to steal our job!

Old Man Fang, you are such a bitch!

Wang Chengen glanced at Fang Zhenghua with complicated eyes, then turned and left.

Zhu Youjian called Fang Zhenghua forward, pointed at the map and said:

"Old Fang, come and see, which line does Li Guo want to take?"

Fang Zhenghua took a casual glance, pointed around the new city and said:

"Your Majesty, from Zhuozhou to Baoding, there are Taihang Mountains to the west, Baiyangdian to the east, and only the plains surround Xincheng.

Unless Li Guo takes a detour, this is the only way! "

Zhu Youjian pointed at the location of the new city: "That means the battle is about who can occupy the new city first?"

Fang Zhenghua shook his head: "Your Majesty, Zhuozhou is closer to the new city than Baoding is to the new city!

Moreover, we also need to calculate the time it takes to send messages back and forth. "

“Moreover, the terrain around the new city is flat, which is suitable for cavalry.

If our army seizes the new city, Li Guo will wait for work. "

"Therefore, even if we can seize the new city, it is meaningless."

Zhu Youjian raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"

Fang Zhenghua pulled his finger back a little and placed it on Rong Cheng:

"There is a Baigou River in the north of Rongcheng. I remember that around Rongcheng, there is only one stone bridge connecting the two banks for forty miles up and down."

Zhu Youjian raised his eyebrows: "You mean to set up an ambush in Rongcheng?"

Fang Zhenghua smiled and put his palm on the capital, covering a huge map:

"It depends on how His Majesty decides?"

Zhu Youjian moved his finger north and placed it on Liaodong:

"You mean to take the overall situation into consideration and try not to irritate Li Zicheng?"

Fang Zhenghua nodded: "His Majesty's plan is to occupy Nanyang, stabilize the base first, and then plan for the world.

We take this as our ultimate goal, so we can't fight head-on with Thief Li now.

I thought that we could use Li Guo's cavalry to deal with him while secretly attacking Chencang! "

"Besides!"

Fang Zhenghua pointed to the north: "Your Majesty, over the years, the intervals between Donglu plundering our Ming Dynasty have become shorter and shorter. According to time calculation, Donglu will definitely go south again in the near future.

If my estimate is correct, this time must be within two months!

If we keep Li Zicheng, we can kill two birds with one stone! "

"Hahaha!"

Zhu Youjian laughed and patted Fang Zhenghua on the shoulder:

"As expected of Governor Fang!"

This old guy is worthy of being appointed by the original owner to be the governor of a strategically important place like Zhending and Baoding in a situation like Jiashen!

This kind of vision is really rare!

He was familiar with the history of later generations and naturally knew that the Qing Dynasty was about to go south. However, Fang Zhenghua was able to calculate the time when the Qing Dynasty went south. This was terrifying.

Fang Zhenghua bowed his waist slightly, stretched his chest, and looked like a slave: "Your Majesty has trained me well!"

The two old Yinbi looked at each other and laughed.

Li is here!

Just in time, with the help of Li Guo, we can slowly retreat to Nanyang.

Zhu Youjian's lips curled up into a smile.

……

After the ministers arrived one after another, Zhu Youjian stated his previous plan again.

Fan Jingwen stood up immediately:

"Your Majesty, please lead the army to confuse Li Guo and buy time for your Majesty to move south!"

Fang Zhenghua also did his part: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask you to command a team to complete your Majesty's plan."

Wang Jiayan, the right minister of the Ministry of War, also stood up: "Please come!"

……

Seeing the ministers asking for orders one after another, Zhu Youjian lowered his hand and stopped the ministers:

"Li Guo is coming for me. If he doesn't see my flag, he will definitely take a detour south and meet up with Zhou Fengwu first before besieging us.

Therefore, in this battle, only I can stop him by going personally! "

The ministers were waiting for advice, but Zhu Youjian said directly:

"Zhang Luofu is good at commanding cavalry. Let him take 3000 people with me."

"Fang Zhenghua is highly skilled in martial arts and possesses the courage of a hundred men. He will personally guard me."

"Wang Qing, you take the remaining infantry and make a move to attack Zhou Fengwu's camp, force him to retreat and make way for the rear!"

"Fan Qing, mobilize the whole city immediately. After I lure Li Guo away and Wang Shilang forces Zhou Fengwu to retreat, immediately retreat towards Nanyang!"

"Zhang Yuanmei, set off immediately, rush to Li County, and notify General Ma Daima to retreat!"

The ministers set off immediately to make arrangements.

Zhu Youjian left Wang Chengen and Fang Zhenghua:

"Lao Fang, you are good at martial arts. I feel more at ease with you guarding me."

Fang Zheng responded.

Unless the thief steps on his body, no one can harm His Majesty!

"Date companion, you should worry more about the retreat."

Wang Chengen's eyes were red, and he wanted to prevent the emperor from danger. However, your majesty was right, Li Guo came here for your majesty.

Except for His Majesty, no one can stop the two invading armies from joining together.

He choked and nodded: "Your Majesty, please be careful!"

Wang Chengen grabbed Fang Zhenghua's collar again: "If your Majesty loses even one hair, I will never let you go!"

Fang Zhenghua punched Wang Chengen: "When did our son, the martial arts supervisor, have diarrhea and diarrhea?"

……

Outside Bazhou City.

Bazhou is affiliated to Shuntian Prefecture (the capital) and is a scattered state, half a level higher than the county.

Wu Biaolin, the prefect of the state who had recently surrendered to the Dashun regime, huddled in the city and shivered.

The year before last, the Qing troops invaded and burned, killed and looted most of the land north of the Yangtze River!

Bazhou was also captured...

Zhao Hui, the deputy envoy of Bingbeidao, Ding Shixi, the magistrate of Bazhou, and Li Shi, the squire who helped defend the city, died tragically. The number of victims in Bazhou exceeded [-]...

In the end, tens of thousands of young men were kidnapped...

……

Wu Piaolin was frightened out of his mind when he looked at the large army under the city under the banner of the Ming Army.

However, the clamor in the city is still there:

"That dog officer, if you don't come out, I'm going to attack the city!"

Zhang Luofu looked like a ruthless soldier. He stood an arrow away from his horse and shouted towards the city:

"You are so blind that you don't even look at how many new weapons our Emperor has produced. Do you know that the new city was destroyed?"

When Wu Piaolin mentioned Xincheng, he remembered that such a county town was destroyed by the emperor in the blink of an eye...

Wu Piaolin was so scared!
