~~~~~~

In the evening, the Ming army held a grand celebration banquet.

Emperor Chongzhen also spent a lot of money, slaughtering more than 2,000 large livestock such as pigs, cattle, and sheep.

Of course, cattle are valuable property after all, and the only ones to be slaughtered at this time are old cattle that are almost out of commission.

This victory was too crucial for the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen, and the imperial court!

In fact, it is impossible to describe in words the importance of this victory.

Emperor Chongzhen stayed in the urn city inside Guangqumen until very late, and met with dozens of important generals of the Ming army before leaving with great encouragement.

However, in the midst of the excitement in the Ming army camp, there was a rumor...a somewhat disgraceful gossip...

Some people say that this time, the strategy of using black clay pots was not proposed by Governor Yuan, but by someone else...

Governor Yuan can only be regarded as 'plagiarism' at best, which is not honorable...

Governor Yuan was very high-spirited tonight and was about to reach the pinnacle of his life and ascend to an unprecedented level, but when he heard the news, his lungs were about to explode with anger!

Fortunately, Governor Yuan reacted very quickly. He immediately summoned Liu Fei and other seven or eight staff members to his big tent!

"What exactly is going on? Who can give me an explanation?"

Perhaps because of today's great victory, Governor Yuan's power is several times greater than before. It's like a tiger looming over a dragon, making it impossible for people to look directly at it!

Liu Fei knelt down on the ground tremblingly, his little heart almost scared out of his wits, and hurriedly explained: "Dong Weng, students, students don't know either. The conscience of heaven and earth, this matter, the students really don't know about this...

…”

The staff on the side were also kowtowing repeatedly and didn't know what to ask.

Who dares to say this at this time?

"snort!"

Governor Yuan couldn't help but sneer coldly: "Whether you know or not, you know it in your own hearts! However, if you want to win today, I won't let you worry about it so much! But~, if you let me know in the future

Who wants to talk nonsense again? Don’t blame me for being ruthless!"

"Yes Yes……"

Liu Fei and his staff were so silent that they didn't even dare to breathe.

After all the staff were dismissed, Liu Fei was left alone by Governor Yuan.

The cold sweat on Liu Fei's forehead was pouring out uncontrollably. He had been with Governor Yuan for almost three years, so how could he not understand his Dong Weng's temperament?

Eighty-nine times out of ten, he will be in bad luck today!

Inspector Yuan had calmed down a lot at this time and looked at Liu Fei calmly, "Liu Fei, I need your explanation for what happened today!"

Liu Fei hurriedly kowtowed, "Dong Weng, this matter, this matter is really difficult for students to explain! Dong Weng, although our army is victorious at this time, it is inevitable that the storm will be rough. Dong Weng, you, you must

Proceed with caution!"

"Haha. Really?"

Inspector Yuan couldn't help but look into Liu Fei's eyes with a faint smile, "Liu Fei, I would like to thank you for reminding me about this. However, in the coming days, I have to temporarily wrong you!"

…………

Liu Fei was immediately taken into custody by Governor Yuan. Although his life was not in danger, he was isolated from the world.

At this time, although Liu Fei thought up and proposed this plan, under such a general situation, who would know, and who would care about him, an inconspicuous person?

…………

Although Governor Yuan's approach is disappointing, to a certain extent, it is also the safest approach.

He strictly controlled the most critical source of this news.

Others can't find the pig's feet that cause trouble. Even if they want to stir up trouble, they don't have that much strength.

Especially at this time when Governor Yuan is at the peak of his power, who dares to blatantly antagonize him?

The joyful night passed quickly.

Early the next morning, at least thousands of "black clay pot bombs" had been prepared in the Ming army's position. If the Jin army dared to come up with turtle shells again, I'm sorry, but they would never let it go this time.

They are so relaxed.

But today, the Hou Jin army seemed to be a little afraid of the Ming army's firepower. They did not launch a new offensive. Instead, they kept huddled in the camp and defended carefully without any intention of fighting.

Until evening, the Hou Jin army had no intention of going out to fight.

Emperor Chongzhen was also a little disinterested for a moment. He knew that the Jin army would not be able to fight again after today, so he returned to the palace early to rest.

As soon as the emperor left, all the dignitaries lost their temper and dispersed one after another.

In the Guan Ning army formation, Commander Yuan was also a little erratic for a while.

Could it be that the Tatars are really afraid of being beaten by him? Do they dare not go to war again?

Or~, what conspiracy are they preparing?

However, with the confidence gained from yesterday's battle, Governor Yuan is now much more relaxed than before, or in other words, his options are much wider than before.

After thinking carefully for a long time, he finally adopted the suggestion of one of his staff and sent out a large number of sentries to investigate carefully to see what tricks the Hou Jin Army was actually up to!

But for three days in a row, there was no movement in the Hou Jin army's battle formation, and there were only a few battles with the Ming army's sentry cavalry.

Only when the Ming army's sentry cavalry came within one mile of their position would they encounter a violent counterattack.

The situation outside the capital, which was originally tense, felt inexplicably relieved for a while.

…………

At this time, the situation outside the capital seemed to have temporarily eased, but on the eastern front, Li Yuanqing's side had just entered a rhythm.

After five or six days of patient waiting, the main force of the Azige tribe finally approached the outside of Yongping City.

At the same time, the main force of Manggurtai's Zhenglan Banner and Daishan's Zhenghong Banner were also quickly approaching Yongping City.

At this time~, after these days of hard work, the outpost of Li Yuanqing's Changsheng Ying'erlangs has approached the official road node six miles away in the north of Yongping City.

This is a very wide open land.

On both sides of the official road, there are fertile fields, which are almost endless as far as the eye can see.

Originally, this season was a good time for green seedlings and all things to revive and grow, but at this time~, the continuous and intertwined ravine formations not only destroyed the original ecological beauty of many fields, but also made it so cold and scary!

In the evening, the main force of the Zhengbai Banner under Azige had slowly approached the Changsheng Camp outpost battle formation two miles away along the official road.

They had about 12,000 to 3,000 men, but there were 30,000 to 40,000 war horses. The vastness was overwhelming.

However, at this time, due to the advance contact with the sentinels from various ministries, Azig also knew at this time that the battle formation in front of him was the most majestic Changsheng Camp formation in the world.

Although Azige hated Li Yuanqing so much and had always regarded Li Yuanqing as a "wind vane", at this time~, when he really faced Li Yuanqing, he did not dare to have the slightest confidence. He stayed three miles away from the Ming army's battle formation and was careful.

Set up camp, take a defensive posture, and never dare to act carelessly.

At this time, in the battle formation of the Changsheng Battalion, Li Yuanqing stood on a high slope not far behind the outpost, quietly watching the main force of the Zhengbai Banner camp, his eyes slightly narrowed, wondering what he was thinking about.

Next to him, Liu Xingzuo was not as calm as Li Yuanqing. He hurriedly said in a low voice: "Li Shuai, this is indeed the main force of the Azige tribe! From the looks of it, there are at least twenty Niu Lu. Li Shuai, we must not do this."

Don’t take it lightly! Azig’s subordinates are all the elites of the old slaves!”

Li Yuanqing smiled and nodded, "Thank you Liu Shuai for reminding me."

Li Yuanqing is actually not unfamiliar with Azige...

Although there was no actual exchange of fire between the two sides with real swords and guns, Li Yuanqing had heard of his name Azige for a long time.

Of course, part of this is due to Azig's bravery and proficiency in fighting, but more importantly, it is because... he is Abahai's son.

Speaking of Abahai...

To a large extent, this is also a big regret in Li Yuanqing's heart...

This woman married the old slave at the age of twelve and had the exclusive favor of the old slave for twenty years. Even at this time, she was only thirty-seven or eighteen years old.

such a pity.

Huang Taiji's methods are too harsh!

After the old slave died, this guy directly forced the ambitious Abahai to be buried. It was a waste of natural resources...

Coming from later generations, Li Yuanqing knew very well how much energy Abahai's three sons would possess in the following decades...

However, at this time, Azig was just a little kid whose hair had not yet fully grown. Even if he had the two yellow flags left by the old slave, he was still a little kid to Li Yuanqing.

Back then, even when the old slave personally received the Lianghuangqi, Li Yuanqing often slapped the elders like Lianghuangqi in the face, let alone now!

At this time, Liu Xingzuo also noticed that Li Yuanqing seemed a little disapproving and seemed to underestimate the enemy. This is a taboo for military strategists...

After hesitating several times, Liu Xingzuo finally spoke carefully and whispered in a low voice: "Li Shuai, although Azig and I can't talk to each other, I know all the nobles under Azige."

No... do you want me to send someone over first to test Azig's tone?"

Li Yuanqing smiled faintly and looked into Liu Xingzuo's eyes.

Liu Xingzuo was stunned for a moment, and hesitated to speak because of some unspeakable words.
To be continued...
