Chapter 492 New Year's Eve in the Sea Breeze(1/2)
“Woo woo…”
Twilight sinks.
The howling sea breeze is mixed with the smell of wet and salty sea fishy, and it is tyrannically passing through the sparse woods above the middle-aged man's heads. It is so cold that it makes people doubt life.
Especially the raging waves under the ice not far away sometimes slapped the coast, making strange screams that made people's scalp numb, which made people worry for a moment whether this thick ice layer could withstand it.
It made Zhu Mi suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder and she really wanted to go back to the boat to rest first.
But next to him, Xu Changqing did not move at all, staring at the direction of Shanhaiguan not far away, without waiting for a moment to blink his eyelashes.
That solemn and strict momentum made Zhu Ma swallow his words and swallow them back.
Zhu Mai knew very well that if she spoke, Xu Changqing would definitely protect her and take care of her first, but if she spoke, she would inevitably look spoiled. After all, she was pestering Xu Changqing to come...
Thinking of this, Zhu Mai could only grit her teeth and continue to hold on without disturbing Xu Changqing's thoughts.
At this time, it was already the middle of Xu, about 8:00 p.m.
Under the majestic Shanhaiguan, although the main force of the refugee army and the Guanning army have retreated, the blazing fire has not stopped. Judging from the current situation, it may have to burn for more than half an hour.
From this we can also see how cruel Wu Sangui is!
But the retreat was because of the retreat, but neither side was idle.
The refugee army continued to make fires under many Luochengs, as if to build more offensive fortifications.
The Guanning Army was busy with the main city. If nothing unexpected happens, Wu Sangui should have given up some Luocheng.
This is also a major drawback of the bastion.
Before being broken or someone opens the gap, it is indeed a defensive weapon and can be easily used in all aspects, but usually if the gap is broken and if you want to remedy it, the cost will be high.
Of course, the most important thing is that Wu Sangui and Guanning underestimate the enemy too much and lack the defense layout outside the city, which makes Shanhaiguan's defense system too flat and not three-dimensional.
However, no matter how Wu Sangui did it, his strong first move has been lost. If nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely not be able to withstand this when the refugee army comes again tomorrow!
The only choice he can choose tomorrow is to take the initiative!
Taking advantage of the powerful cavalry advantages of the Guanning Army, he fought head-on with the refugee army! This will be his only chance!
"call."
Thinking of this, Xu Changqing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly.
In the end, I still couldn't escape this terrifying historical inertia...
With Wu Sangui's character, even if he had to work hard, he would definitely keep a backup plan. At this time, the only backup plan he could have... is the Qing Dynasty!
Xu Changqing couldn't help but look at the huge battle formation that had lasted for miles of the refugee army.
In the wasteland not far behind them is the famous "a piece of stone"...
"Hmph, humph..."
At this time, Xu Changqing suddenly heard the sound of Zhu Moe twitching in his arms, and hurriedly looked at her.
Zhu Ma's pretty face suddenly turned red. She didn't expect that her ugly appearance would be seen by Xu Changqing. She was obviously very careful and had almost no sound. Who would have thought that Xu Changqing, who was originally like a wood, would actually look over at this time...
...
Just as Xu Changqing smiled and comforted Zhu Mei, and the two of them went back to the temporary camp by the beach to rest, the atmosphere in Wu Sangui's residence in Shanhaiguan was as depressing as death.
A policing official is reporting to Wu Sangui about their casualties today.
So far, their Guanning Sequence, have paid more than 5,000 casualties, and at least half of the casualties have been killed or killed in the war.
This is mainly because the refugee army is too fierce, just fighting and doing. To a large extent, it is even more brave than the Tartars, which makes the old soldiers in the Guanning sequence very uncomfortable for a while.
Listening to the trembling report by the polite polite officer, Wu Sangui's face had no expression on his erect face. His originally handsome and elegant face was now, and he didn't need to put on makeup when he went straight to play a male ghost.

Soon after the governor finished reporting, Wu Sangui looked at the generals in the scan room with a blank expression. "Everyone, what are your thoughts?"
The generals talked softly for a while, but soon began to shut their mouths again.
Until now, the situation is obvious. Even if they are powerful, they are only a power of one place. Even though Dashunchao has just established a country, they are still a power of one country!
This difference is not something you can make up for just by trying to make up for.
Seeing that the generals dared not speak, Wu Sangui couldn't help feeling even more depressed.
It is no wonder that the ancients said "called lonely and widowed". This road is really too lonely and is extremely cold at a high place...
Wu Sangui joined the army in his teens and won the title of "Filial Piety and News Nine Borders, Brave and Three Army" in his early twenties. He has a lot of experience in leading troops.
Even though his anger surged in his heart, he understood even more that this was definitely not the time to get angry. If he poured out his emotions at will, making people under him feel uncomfortable and had an accident, then he would be even more unfair than Dou E.
After calming down for a while, Wu Sangui said in a deep voice: "At this time, my main force in Guanning has reached the point of life and death. Don't be negligent. Tonight, you must strictly guard against the enemy to prevent the thieves from having another change!"
"yes!"
The generals dared not say anything else, so they respectfully called it.
After a while, Wu Sangui caught a confidant and whispered softly.
The confidant nodded quickly, and a cold and harsh light quickly appeared in his eyes and left quickly.
For the big men leading the troops, each person has different ways to control the troops.
For example, Xu Changqing and Xu Changqing's method of controlling the model army was mainly the system, plus the families of the soldiers, and supplemented by their own reputation to integrate everyone into a community of interests.
Wu Sangui is also similar to Xu Changqing.
However, Wu Sangui has not learned more scientific management in the future, and many places are far from what Xu Changqing did more properly, but he also has his back, which is secret surveillance.
This state at this time is exactly the same as Mr. Wang’s famous saying: “It is better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let one go!”
He can no longer be careless!
"Report—"
"The latest battle report of Luocheng, a T-font size, is there!"
"Report—"
"The battle report of Luocheng, a font-name..."
In the silent hall, it was sometimes broken by the harsh voice of the messenger, and there were constantly figures back and forth.
Wu Sangui had already served a pot of wine at this time, and while drinking, he analyzed and planned more carefully.
The thief is too stable.
Even he cannot help but admire him at this time. Li Zicheng and his team have definitely not just luck to this day. Their combat effectiveness has long surpassed the vast majority of the Ming border troops. Even Guanning, they can only be blocked by them at the door, but there is nothing they can do.
As the current situation continues, just as Xu Changqing predicted before, he has no choice but to go out of the city to fight for his life.
While thinking, a confidant suddenly came carefully to report: "Shuai, Mr. Xie is here..."
Mr. Xie is Hong Chengchou's confidant Xie Sixin. He had an old relationship with Xu Changqing back then. To a large extent, he was also kind to Xu Changqing.
As early as a few years ago, Hong Chengchou and Xie Sixin had not arrived in Liao for a few days, Wu Sangui had a relationship with Xie Sixin and they became brothers.
"Go and invite it quickly. No, I'll go and invite it myself."
Wu Sangui hesitated for a moment and immediately got up and went to personally invite Xie Sixin.
After the two of them were simple and polite outside, Wu Sangui directly invited Xie Sixin to the study room and said nervously: "Brother, how about it?"
Xie Sixin's originally exquisite goatee was a little messy at this time, and he whispered: "It's not easy to deal with it. Dongweng still wants to be famous. Brother, is there really no other way?"
Xie Sixin looked at Wu Sangui with some difficulty.
Wu Sangui couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Brother, you have seen this battle today. The thief is just a bunch of mad dogs. Whoever they catch, bite who they are. Moreover, their firearms are very powerful. Brother thinks, how long can we last?"

"this……"
Xie Sixin looked worried.
If there is a choice, who is willing to defect to the Tartars as slaves?
But at this time, they really had no choice.
How could Xie Sixin give up his glory and wealth at this time? After a moment of entanglement, he said softly: "Chang Bo, I will try my best to persuade the supervisor tonight. Don't be rash. We have not encountered such a situation before. If you hold on, you will definitely have a solution!"
Wu Sangui laughed and said yes, but his heart was already cold!
There is still a nonsense solution. If you don’t plan, you will have a dead end!
After seeing Xie Sixin away, Wu Sangui called his confidant Wu Dahai and whispered softly.
Wu Dahai's pupils shrank suddenly, and for a moment, he nodded repeatedly and said yes.
After sending Wu Dahai away, Wu Sangui breathed a little relieved, took out a cigar, lit it, took a deep breath after it was lit.
Even if some things are impulsive, the cost will be very high, but at this time, the arrow is already on the string, and he can't help but hesitate!
As long as you can achieve the overall situation, let alone anything else, even if you kill your father and brother, what's the point?
Time passes by rapidly.
