Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 228 Gao Yigong: Cooperate to Fight the Qing Dynasty?impossible

Li Guo sat in the tent, frowning tightly.

Although he didn't accept Gao Yigong's words, he also agreed with Gao Yigong's idea.

Prior to this, Li Yan and Hong Niangzi secretly voted for Princess Na Kunxing, not only harboring her, but also bringing her to Sichuan.

Later, Ma Ke, Li Yutian and other Ming generals and ministers returned to the princess.

In June last year, during the Qing army's attack on Datong, Jiang Yu, the commander-in-chief of Datong, led his henchmen to the Marshal's Mansion and killed Zhang Tianlin and Ke Tianxiang, their defenders of Dashun.

Then he dedicated Datong to Azig, the prince of Donglu.

Since then, the suspicion in Dashun towards the surrendered generals and ministers of the Ming Dynasty has reached the extreme, and the reason why He Zhen is still appointed as the guard of Hanzhong.

One reason is that He Zhen took refuge earlier after all, and has been in Chuangjun for three years.

Second, there are still quite a few surrendered generals and troops in Dashun. If they really took action to eliminate the surrendered generals and troops of Ming Dynasty, they might not need the Qing army to fight, and civil strife would break out.

It's just that Li Guo never expected that He Zhen would also take refuge in the princess who is currently in charge of the country in Sichuan.

Thinking of this, Li Guo couldn't help but recall that the princess bravely entered the camp with only one maid and three dead soldiers, and assassinated King Chuang with a magic lamp.

At that time, even though they were mud-legged, they could see that this princess was extraordinary, and even secretly admired her in their hearts.

After all, as a woman, it is really rare and rare to be able to do this.

But at that time, neither he nor King Chuang and the others thought that the princess would escape into Sichuan and take control of Sichuan, cutting off their escape route in Sichuan.

If they had known this earlier, they should have killed the princess immediately after they had caught that princess.

When Li Guo felt remorseful and regretful, Gao Yigong said again: "Baohou, time waits for no one, you should not hesitate any longer. Since the Ming army is in the way, just defeat them!"

It turned out that the reason why the two camped at the foot of Wudu Mountain, rather than Fengxian County or other places, was because they found that Chai Pass and Feiqiu Pass were guarded by the Ming army when they went south.

Although these two passes are not as dangerous as Dasan Pass and Tongguan Pass, they are not easy to attack.

The vanguard army led by the two had only more than 3 people. If the two fortresses were not conquered and the Qing army behind them caught up, they would be in a desperate situation.

Li Guo heard Gao Yigong mention the war, he came back to his senses, frowned and said: "According to the scout team, these Ming troops in Hanzhong seem to be different from before, they are not easy to fight."

Gao Yigong showed disdain when he heard the words, and said: "No matter how different it is, it is the Ming army, not the Qing army.

We can fight each other with the Qing army, how can we be afraid of the Ming army?
Don't forget, the Ming army either surrendered or fled when they saw us before.

As far as the Ming court and the officers and soldiers are concerned, how can the Ming army be so strong no matter how they change?At most, it was only at the level of Sun Chuanting's standard supervision camp back then.

We have more than 3 elite soldiers, don't take care of Feiqiu Pass, and attack Chai Pass directly.

This chai pass is not as dangerous as the Feiqiu pass, and it has been in disrepair for a long time. If we attack with [-] soldiers and horses, we will definitely be able to defeat it! "

"Okay, guys, let's give it a try."

Although Li Guo's confidence against the Ming army was not as high as Gao Yigong's, he didn't think the Ming army could be much stronger.

He was just worried that it would take too long, or that too many troops would be lost, which would affect the subsequent military plan to move to Sichuan and Huguang.

On the same day, Li Guo and Gao Yigong moved the camp to Chaiguan. On the one hand, they ordered the combat troops to recharge their batteries, and on the other hand, they ordered the logistics troops to build simple siege equipment.

Li Guo and Gao Yigong led their soldiers out of the temporary camp, went to a mound to watch Chai Pass, and discussed how to attack.

Unexpectedly, after a while, I saw the closed door open, and a group of cavalry rushed out.

Li Guo and Gao Yigong were startled, thinking that the Ming army saw their identities and wanted to dispatch elite cavalry to kill them.

But I saw that there were only about twenty cavalry in this team, and the leader was wearing a civil official's costume and holding a festival flag.

Seeing this, Gao Yigong sneered, "What are these officers and soldiers doing? Don't you think that 100 people can deal with more than [-] of us?"

As he said that, he wanted to lead his own soldiers to take the initiative to rush over to destroy these Ming army cavalry.

Maybe, maybe we can drive these Ming army cavalry back to Chaiguan, and let them follow them into Guancheng by the way.

It's not that Gao Yigong is whimsical, such things have happened in the past.

Li Guo shouted: "Wait, they seem to be envoys from the army?"

"Envoy?" Gao Yigong was puzzled, "Why did the government send an envoy? Could it be possible that they can still negotiate peace with us?"

"We'll find out when they come over."

Relying on the fact that their own troops were several times that of the army, Li Guo and Gao Yigong calmly waited for the twenty or so Ming troops to arrive thirty or forty paces away.

The leading young civil servant clasped his fists away and said: "I am Yu Qingyao, the judge in the army of Governor Lu, and I was ordered to come to discuss with your army about cooperating to fight against the Qing Dynasty. Please take me to meet the chief general of your army."

Hearing this, Li Guo and Gao Yigong showed surprise expressions.

The two exchanged glances, and then Li Guo said, "You are the chief general of the army, Li Guo. You said, you want to cooperate with you to fight against the Qing Dynasty?"

Yu Qingyao had already speculated about the identities of Li Guo and Gao Yigong, but he was still shocked when he learned that the person in front of him was the famous thief leader "A Tiger".

Fortunately, he was mentally prepared for the task of entering the enemy camp, and quickly recovered his composure, saying: "That's right. Now that the Eastern captives are invading Shenzhou, although you and others are rebels, you are also descendants of the Han family after all.

Presumably, you also don't want to see this great river and mountain being occupied by the Tartars and reduced to a smelly place, right?

Our state supervisor is magnanimous, as long as you agree to deal with the Qing army with the imperial court, we will not investigate your crimes for the time being. "

Hearing this, Li Guo frowned and remained silent for a while.

Gao Yigong sneered and said, "Rebels? Your capital city was destroyed by them, and the emperor was hanged. How dare you say that you are rebels?

Listen well, it is Dashun Dashun who can represent Shenzhou Zhengshuo now, not you Daming! "

After hearing this, Yu Qingyao couldn't help but look very ugly, and said coldly: "Now that you are being chased by the Qing army, the only way is to cooperate with us. You don't know what is good or bad!"

"Hahaha," Gao Yigong laughed loudly, "I don't know what's going on? Not only do I not know what's going on, but I'm going to break through the Chai Pass later and capture your Lu Dushi sacrificial flag!"

"A thief is a thief, so stubborn!"

After hearing Gao Yigong's words, Yu Qingyao knew that the cooperation could not be discussed, so he cursed and walked away to lead the team.

Gao Yigong's eyes showed a fierce look, and he was about to wave his hands to let the soldiers stay with Qingyao and others.

But Li Guo stopped him and said: "It is said that the two countries will not fight each other, since you said that Dashun is Shenzhou Zhengshuo, don't make it too ugly."

When Gao Yigong saw Li Guo's blocking, Yu Qingyao and the others ran a hundred paces away, so he could only give up.

An hour later.

The Shun army carried crude siege equipment and began to attack Chaiguanguan City.

Because Guancheng was built on the hillside, the front was not big, and it was impossible to arrange too many troops, so Li Guo divided the siege troops into teams of thousands of people, and took turns to attack the city.

Unexpectedly, the first thousand-man team carried the simple flying bridge and ladder to the place two hundred paces away from the city, and a series of cannons rang out from the city.

Boom boom boom!
Dozens of shells fell into the crowd and exploded, causing the soldiers to be turned on their backs, killing and injuring more than 200 people on the spot!
It should be noted that Li Guo saw the artillery on the top of the city, so he specifically ordered the siege team to disperse and charge. Even so, 1000 people still suffered [-]-[-]% casualties in a round of shelling.

This shocked Li Guo, Gao Yigong and other Shunjun generals.

The Shunjun who charged seemed to have lost their souls, some continued to charge forward, some ran elsewhere, and some ran back, heading straight for the supervising team.

In order to break through Chaiguan as soon as possible, Li Guo did not use cannon fodder troops, but elite troops.

But even the elite of the Shun army was still beaten by a round of shelling, causing heavy casualties and losing their souls.

Immediately afterwards, something that shocked Li Guo, Gao Yigong and others happened.

In less than thirty breaths, there was another deafening cannon fire on the Guancheng!

This time, twenty or thirty shells landed far in front of the Shun army formation, which was two miles away from Chaiguan, where the subsequent siege teams of thousands stood.

These people stood much denser than the charging team of thousands.

I saw that some of the shells exploded when they hit the ground, and some exploded in the air. Along with the fragments of the shells, there were also countless pieces of broken porcelain.

After the explosion, nearly a thousand Shun troops lined up fell down!

Although not all the Shun soldiers who fell were killed or injured, at least half of them were frightened or pushed down by others, but such a scene still made all the Shun soldiers tremble.

"This...is this bomb?!" There are many generals in the Shun Army who have relevant knowledge, but it is precisely because of their knowledge that it is even more difficult to understand, "How can their bombs be much more powerful, and they can be fired at once?" so much?"

No one answered him.

Because the thousands of people in front of the formation have collapsed and are rushing back to the main formation of the army.

Li Guo, Gao Yigong and other Shun army generals realized that they were in a huge crisis - if the Ming army went out of the pass to attack at this time, their entire army would probably be defeated!
