Chapter 20 Dorgon, here I come!

"Dorgon agreed?"

Yang Feng looked at Lao Wang and said.

"Your Majesty, Dorgon agreed to come to see Your Majesty, but he did not agree to come to our Ningyuan City. He proposed to choose a place between Lianshan and Ningyuan, such as under Longbei Mountain, and then each side brought a thousand troops over there. The distance between Ningyuan and Lianshan is almost the same."

Lao Wang said.

"Your Majesty, this matter must not be done!"

Feng Yuanyang said.

"The Tartars are probably ulterior motives. Both sides seem to have the same force, but if they are hiding evil intentions, how can our army defeat their 1,000 soldiers and horses? What's more, the mountains and forests are densely packed around Longbei Mountain. If they ambush the soldiers and horses in the forests, your Majesty may have an unexpected accident when he goes there. If they are really sincere, they can come to Ningyuan City, and we should treat each other with sincerity!"

Then he said again.

He firmly opposed borrowing troops. Obviously, he understood what it means once the Qing army was allowed to enter the pass, but the emperor was bewitched too deeply by Wang Yongji and others, and was blinded by hatred, so he insisted. He never stopped working hard these two days, but he still did not change the emperor's will. And this time Dorgon probably really had no good intentions. The two of them each brought one thousand soldiers. How could the thousand Ming army defeat a thousand Qing army? If Dorgon suddenly launched an attack to seize the emperor to threaten this way, what other choice would there be except for letting him enter the pass through Ningyu Road? If he was allowed to pass Ningyuan, only tens of thousands of Eight Banners soldiers were at Shanhaiguan. At that time, Li Zicheng threatened him. How could the Shanhaiguan defenders fight against him? If there was still a little hope to borrow troops and force the Qing army to go through Miyun or Zunhua Road, but if the Qing army entered Shanhaiguan, the Ming Dynasty would be over!

Even if it is the best, it is just the Southern Song Dynasty.

"I treat him sincerely, and he will not let me down!"

His Majesty the Emperor said with his mind full of destructive water.

"Your Majesty, if Your Majesty promises this, the old minister would rather die than watch my Central Plains slander. The shame of Jingkang will repeat itself!"

Feng Yuanyang said as he was about to hit the city wall.

Then suddenly the emperor's hand appeared on the back of his head. Feng Cifu, who had just taken office, fainted without hesitation. Then Yang Feng waved his hand, and Lao Wang quickly carried him away with a few soldiers. Cao Youyi and Huang Fei looked at this scene blankly, looking at Li Yutian and others who did not take this seriously, it was obvious that they still didn't understand such a simple trap. Why these people all had a relaxed expression on their faces and had no intention of dissuading the emperor.

"Your Majesty, it's no big deal to bring a thousand soldiers, but you still have to be careful of Dorgon's additional ambush in the Longbei Mountain area."

Li Yutian said.

"Just strengthen reconnaissance in this matter."

Yang Feng said righteously: "No matter whether Dorgon has any other thoughts or not, this is the only opportunity for us to borrow troops. The rebellion may have begun to go north. The bloody battle of Shanhaiguan is in place. For these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, I am worth it even if I take risks, but Feng Qing's concerns are not unreasonable. The ambition of the Tartars is no different from that of the qin beasts. We cannot expect them to keep our promises. I will meet Dorgon, and you must also be prepared to face the enemy. If Dorgon is ill-behaved, then there will be a bloody battle in our Ningyuan next!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the Tartars have not conquered Ningyuan before, and I will not let them succeed at this time."

Li Yutian said.

"Your Majesty, isn't a thousand soldiers too few?"

Huang Fei finally couldn't help but say carefully.

In his opinion, the one thousand Ming army delivers vegetables to the one thousand Qing army. According to his past experience, even ten thousand to one thousand is dangerous. Even the emperor, these people are just a joke. The emperor takes a thousand people to the tiger's mouth.

"Brother Huang is worried too much. It's just a thousand Tartars. Our emperor alone has beaten a thousand Tartars everywhere, not to mention that there are still a thousand soldiers this time."

Tang Yu said with a smile.

Then, everyone, including Yang Feng, burst into laughter. Li Yutian looked a little thoughtful when he laughed, but it just flashed by.

Then the rest will be easier.

Then, he asked Lao Wang to go to Jinzhou to reply to Dorgon, and at the same time designated the specific location and procedures for the meeting between the two sides, as well as some issues of mutual trust between the two sides, and then sent someone to send the good news to Shanhaiguan. Wang Yongji and others naturally breathed a sigh of relief. It was obvious that in their opinion, the emperor still took the overall situation into consideration.

In fact, they were a little suspicious of the emperor before. After all, he dealt with the Qing army too ruthlessly, and it seemed completely irreconcilable. Although it was necessary to seize Ningyuan, it would be a bit too much to hang someone on the city wall and wear a flagpole on the person. However, now that I have been thinking about it, it is normal for the emperor to suddenly suffer this disaster and feel angry. Although Li Zicheng broke Beijing, everyone understands that if the Qing army had not been tortured outside the pass, how could Li Zicheng be today?

In short, all the doubts have disappeared now. Not to mention the officials of Shanhaiguan, even the landlords and wealthy people are very happy.

As for Li Zicheng...

There was still no movement. The fight against the rich was just a happy battle. From top to bottom, it was completely in a carnival state. In history, he had only arrived at Shanhaiguan after a month. Although Wu Sangui was fooling him, he was also procrastinating. After all, these poor men took over Beijing, and the world of beautiful women with gold, silver, jewelry and beauties were already dazzling. Even if he had this awareness, he could not raise this spirit! Even if Li Zicheng wanted to send troops, the generals and soldiers who hugged the white and tender aunts were still not doing it. There were big fish, meat, wine and food in his arms. Who was so idle that he went to the battlefield to fight desperately?

On the Ming army, everything was accelerated due to Yang Feng's appearance, including the time when Dorgon got the news that Li Zicheng captured Beijing was also advanced.

Therefore, the Shun Army has not yet left Beijing.

In fact, the Battle of Shanhaiguan in history was inexplicable. Considering the intensity of the Qing Dynasty's literary inquisition and the official history of writing novels, what happened to Shanhaiguan in 1644 is probably not a single version of later generations is real. At least so far, there is no sign of Li Zicheng's attack on Shanhaiguan. During this period, Shunjun had not even passed Fengrun, so Yang Feng can now feel at ease to solve the problem of the Qing army first.

On the ninth day of the fourth month, Yang Feng went out of Ningyuan.

"Your Majesty, if Your Majesty crosses this bridge, I will die for death!"

Feng Yuanyang, who had never given up his efforts, rushed past the soldiers' obstacles at some point, and lay on the Weiyuan Gate with a look of grief and anger, shouting in a jumping posture.

"You wait until I come back before jumping!"

Yang Feng shouted to him speechlessly.

"Uh, your majesty, your majesty!"

Then Lord Feng was pulled down by the soldiers.

Of course, Yang Feng was not without any preparation. Just before that, the Ming army's scouts had been released and conducted strict reconnaissance in the Longbei Mountain area. This was originally an agreement with Dorgon. Both sides let go of mutual reconnaissance in this area to show mutual trust, and the reconnaissance result was indeed no ambush. In addition, in order to ensure that before Yang Feng led a thousand cavalry out of the city, Tang Yu's 5,000 infantrymen would leave the city and line up in Shoushan. Huang Fei led a total of 5,000 navy troops heading north with Shanhaiguan Longwu Camp, and a total of 5,000 naval troops took warships to reinforce at any time. The place where Yang Feng and Dorgon met was determined to be in a wilderness west of Longbei Mountain. As long as a rocket was issued, no matter Tang Yu on Shoushan or Huang Fei on the flank of Lianshan Bay, they could see it.

Basically this ensures no harm.

Yang Feng, a thousand Qing army, didn't care. He had to be alert to the Qing army in Lianshan, who were all cavalrymen, and they could reach the meeting place within a full speed of up to twenty minutes.

"Walk!"

Yang Feng said urging the horse to war.

He, Li Yutian, Lao Wang, the accompanying Deputy General Chen, and a thousand cavalrymen immediately walked across the suspension bridge on the moat.

At this time, he was wearing a brand new large dragon robe, with cotton armor and a layer of chain mail. The pair of iconic maces were carried by two Jinyiwei, and one Jinyiwei carried the giant bow removed from the crossbow for him. Now the emperor only brought him weapons when he was traveling. He also found someone to customize a pair of beloved Huotidos for him, and also a steel horse scepter, who was dedicated to developing according to Li Cunxiao, but he had not yet made it.

The group left the city and headed north and soon arrived at Tang Yu's infantry formation.

"I bow to Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

Five thousand infantrymen kneeled down and shouted at the same time.

The mental state of these five thousand infantry soldiers obviously satisfied Yang Feng. Many of them participated in the battle outside Ningyuan City. The worship of the emperor came from the heart. No matter what they looked like before, as a group of professional soldiers, they also admired heroes, and the emperor who rode alone to defeat the Qing army corpses everywhere. He led them to win an incredible victory with miraculous force, was undoubtedly the absolute hero in their hearts and their most trustworthy commander.

Not to mention that this commander can summon food and elixirs out of thin air.

It can be said that these five thousand troops are no less than those of the Eight Banners in terms of morale, which means they are still a little worse in physical fitness, but they can already guarantee victory for the same number of the Eight Banners Han Army.

"Get up!"

Yang Feng said.

"It would be fine if my trip went smoothly. If the Tartars ambitions are, you will be my Great Wall of Steel. I want you to let them know that my land of China and the mountains and rivers of the Han people are not something that the barbarians can see."

Then he said again.

"Respect the order!"

Five thousand voices shouted at the same time.

"If my Ming soldiers were like this, how could the rebellion fall into the capital!"

Feeling the momentum of these five thousand soldiers, Li Yutian couldn't help but sigh.

"If the capital city does not fall, how could I know that all the civil and military officials in the court can be cut off? I want to thank you for your rebellion. Without him, I am still in my dream!"

Yang Feng said with a sneer.
