The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 341 Shanhaiguan Storm ([-])

Shanhaiguan, the most powerful pass in the world, strangles Liaodong in the north and faces the sea in the east. It is the only place for Liaodong to enter the pass.

For more than 200 years in the Ming Dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties ordered the repair and reinforcement of the pass walls and city defenses, and finally made Shanhaiguan a fortress that can be called impregnable.

It's just that no matter how strong and tall the pass fortress is, it needs people to guard it.If the walls of the pass in the hearts of those who guard the pass have collapsed, then no matter how majestic the pass is, it will be useless.

Inside Shanhaiguan, General Military Mansion, Shanhaiguan General Zu Dashou was looking worriedly at the huge map of Ming Dynasty hanging in the conference hall, on which the black circle representing the Dashun Army had taken up more than half of Ming Dynasty.

Now Li Zicheng's Dashun Army has captured Hejian Mansion and is marching towards Gyeonggi.And the West Route Army of the Dashun Army has also passed Zhending Mansion and marched towards Baoding Mansion.

In the entire northern part of the Ming Dynasty, only a few hundred miles of land near the capital remained.

It can be said that there is no danger around the entire capital, and the capital has been exposed to Li Zicheng, a rough man, like a weak woman.

"Uncle, according to Tan Ma's report, Li Zicheng has already sent a team to Shanhaiguan, obviously trying to trick us."

Beside Zu Dashou was a heroic young general who was looking at the map and said in a deep voice.

This person is Zu Dashou's nephew, Wu Sangui, deputy commander of the outpost battalion of Shanhaiguan garrison.

"Do you know how many troops are here?" Zu Dashou frowned and asked.

"According to the comprehensive judgment of the news reported by several waves of horse scouts, the bandits have at least [-] troops, and the leader is Li Zicheng's general Hao Yaoqi. Judging by their speed, they will arrive here in at most two days. And their forward The cavalry can reach the pass in one day." Wu Sangui said in a deep voice without hesitation, obviously knowing all these information by heart.

"Hao Yaoqi? This man seems to be Li Zicheng's adopted son. It is said that he is brave in battle. He is Li Zicheng's pawn. Most of his subordinates are the elite troops of Li Zicheng's old camp. Li Zicheng sent this man here, obviously he is determined to win Shanhaiguan." Zu Dashou pondered for a while Immediately remembered the information of this person.

"Uncle, how should we deal with it now?" Wu Sangui's voice was a little anxious.

"How to deal with it? Now we only have 4 horses, including [-] Guanning cavalry. This is the last capital of our two families, and it must not be consumed casually. You should understand that in this troubled world, only with soldiers and horses It is the way of kingship. Without soldiers and horses to guard him, he is no better than a dog in this troubled world." Zu Dashou's voice was a little low, with some frustration.

"But uncle, we can't do this and wait for the bandits to attack. Why don't I take Guan Ning cavalry out to ambush this Hao Yaoqi before the bandits arrive? I'll catch them off guard and let them not underestimate our Guan Ning army " Wu Sangui said loudly.

"No. Now we only have this little man left, and we can't spend it here. These 4 men are the capital for our two families to re-prosper in the future. To deal with Hao Yaoqi's gangsters, there is one person who can help us deal with him. "Zu Dashou looked at the eager Wu Sangui and said in a deep voice.

Wu Sangui was stunned for a moment, and then realized: "Uncle, are you talking about Jiang Chuan who has just been named the King of Qin?"

Zu Dashou nodded slowly and said: "Who else can there be besides him. If there is any hope for the Ming Dynasty, it can only be on him. This person was born out of nowhere like a monster, and in less than a short time He destroyed the Manchu Tartars in a year, and even the famous Yuan Chonghuan was defeated by him. If such a person is not a monster, then what should he be? Now, the emperor has made him king and let him To control the affairs of Liaodong, he also ordered me to obey him and let him join Guanqin Wang. If we don't rely on him, what else can we do?"

Wu Sangui took a step forward and said loudly: "But this man is very ambitious, obviously he is not the kind of person who is willing to be subordinate to others. If we take refuge in him, our [-] Guan Ning Army will become his men. From now on we will only I can be driven by him. Why don't we stand on our own feet and lead the [-] Guanning Army with uncle's ability? Can't we create a foundation in this troubled world? In troubled times, it is a good time for us to make contributions and achieve great things what."

Zu Dashou smiled bitterly and said to Wu Sangui: "Sangui, you are still too young. If you were in other places, you might still be able to stand on your own feet. But now we are in Shanhaiguan, with Li Zicheng in front and Jiangchuan in the back. If we were If we don't choose one of these two, but stand on our own, then we will be attacked by both sides. Do you think we can deal with both sides at the same time with our strength?"

Wu Sangui was stunned when he heard this, and began to feel that his thinking was a little simple.

Zu Dashou continued with a wry smile and said: "Even if we are not afraid of Hao Yaoqi's 5 horses, can we deal with Jiang Chuan? I said, this person is a monster. The Ming court has been in power for decades, and the three emperors have not The pacification of Liaodong took less than a year in his hands, and the three kingdoms of Korea and Mongolia all surrendered one after another. If such a person, such a method, is our enemy, how long do you think we can survive? "

In fact, Wu Sangui already knew what Meng Lang said just now, but he refused to give in: "Uncle, you can't boost up other people's aspirations and destroy your own prestige. Our ancestors and the Wu family have been generals for generations. Would it be better for someone who doesn't know their origins and knows the details?" Is it the Huangkou child? Shanhaiguan is impenetrable, and the Manchu Manchus have repeatedly attacked without success. I don’t believe that Jiang Chuan can have three heads and six arms? If he dares to embarrass us, I must let him know how powerful I am Wu Sangui. "

Zu Dashou knew that this nephew had always been a brave man, so he didn't want to say more, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll take care of this matter. You go down and order the scouts to continue to investigate the movements of the bandits, and if you have any news, let me know immediately." Sue. I'm going to take a nap."

After finishing speaking, Zu Dashou walked towards the inner courtyard. He hadn't fallen asleep for a day and a night.This will be sluggish, and I really need to catch up on sleep.

Wu Sangui promised, but he was still a little unconvinced in his heart, and secretly made up his mind to compete with Jiang Chuan, who was crowned king at a young age, and let him know how powerful I am, Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui strode out of the General Military Mansion, and went up to the wall to inspect with a few of his entourage.

During the inspection, suddenly a young general hurried up the city wall and came to Wu Sangui and said urgently: "Little general, the forward army of the Jiang family army has arrived fifty miles away from us, and the forward general Shanjia sent someone to report, asking the commander-in-chief to open Close the door and welcome them to enter the customs. But the commander-in-chief just fell asleep, and the last general had to report to the little general."

Wu Sangui panicked when he heard the words, it came so fast!After all, Jiang's army's toughness and good fighting skills are already as loud as thunder.No matter how disdainful he said, he still felt uneasy when he really had to face it.

"Don't panic, order Guan Ning's iron cavalry to assemble and stand by. I'll go find my uncle right away." Wu Sangui hurriedly ran down the city wall and headed for the General Military Mansion.
