"Cao Banban, I and my father have taken refuge in your family. What's wrong? Aren't you welcome?"

At the north gate of Wangqingtuo, Cao Huachun saw Zhu Cixiang, the crown prince of Fujun in the Ming Dynasty, wearing a helmet and armor on the suspension bridge. At that time, his heart trembled.

What are you really afraid of? What's coming!

Wu Sangui's arrival is scary enough... Once Guan Ning's army arrives, Wang Qingtuo must not become a battlefield!

But now it is Wu Sanfu and Zhu Cixiang who are coming. It is said that Chongzhen will come soon... This is even more terrifying! Li Zicheng will definitely have to chase them! And Emperor Chongzhen and Zhu Cixiang are staying on Wang Qingtuo's side. The position of Cao Huachun's family is very different.

Let’s make it clear! Even if you jump into the Yellow River, you won’t be able to clean yourself. When Li Zicheng’s people arrive, will the whole family die?

In addition, why did the prince use the banner of Wu Sangui! Cao Huachun thought again: What does this mean? Don’t you believe in our family? Our family is so loyal, but the prince does not believe in our family. It is really chilling!

But the big armored cavalry who came with Wu Sanfu looked very powerful!

Each one of them looks like a giant spirit god, and the team is very neat and well-trained at first glance. The Yongwei battalion that I have managed must not be as good as them... Could it really be the legendary Yiding Cavalry?

Wu Sangui didn't come, but he gave his ace cavalry to his younger brother Wu Sanfu to escort him?

He was in a state of confusion, but Cao Huachun didn't dare to be disrespectful at all.

Now that Wang Qingtuo's door is wide open, the Wu family's Yiding cavalry can rush in at any time! If you don't want to annihilate the clan, you have to pretend to be loyal ministers respectfully.

"Why did Qiansui Master say this?" Cao Huachun reacted and immediately knelt down in front of Zhu Cixiang, "This old slave's loyalty to the Ming Dynasty can be learned from the sun and the moon!"

Zhu Cixiang had already turned over and dismounted with Wu Sanmei's help. He walked up to Cao Huachun with a smile, bent down and helped the old eunuch up.

"Cao Banban, I am very pleased that you are so loyal to the Ming Dynasty." Zhu Cixiang took Cao Huachun's hand and walked into Wang Qingtuo City while saying in a serious tone, "To be honest with Cao Banban, rebellion comes naturally.

Now we have entered Beijing! I and my father are in exile. So you have to be careful in everything!"

"Don't worry, thousand-year-old master," Cao Huachun saw the sad look on Zhu Cixiang's face, so he had no choice but to comfort him, "Wu Sangui has tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and King Qin's army from all directions will soon arrive in Beizhi. At that time, we can work together to recover the capital."

Zhu Cixiang shook his head and deliberately raised his voice: "We can't take it back! Because the enemies who covet the capital are not only the Chuangni family, but also the Donglu from the northeast! I have already received the report from Wang Yongji and Wu Sangui, and the Donglu auxiliary government

Wang Dorgon has already personally led a hundred thousand cavalry to the westward expedition... It is estimated that he will bypass Shanhaiguan and take the entrance to Zunhua and Miyun areas. It won't be long before the North Zhili area will become a battlefield for the battle between Donglu and Chuangni.

!With the little strength the imperial court has at hand, is there any other way out besides staying in the capital of Nanxing? Therefore, Wu Sangui does not dare to stay in Yongping for a long time, and will soon lead an army to Tianjin to join the palace. Now protect the

The 1,000 Yiding cavalry accompanying me are the vanguard of Guan Ning's army."

Cao Huachun was really shocked. He originally thought that the news that Beijing was captured by Li Zicheng was bad enough, but he didn't expect that there was even more terrible news!

One hundred thousand Manchurian troops are about to enter the Pass and compete with Li Zicheng for Northern Zhili!

"Cao Banban," Zhu Cixiang sighed again, "then hundreds of thousands of troops will fight in Beizhi in a bloody battle... Wang Qingtuo's place will inevitably be reduced to a battlefield! What are you Cao family going to do? Stay and let nature take its course, or stay safe?

Are you going south with your father and me?"

When Cao Huachun heard this, how could he still dare to say that he would not go south?

Why don't you go south and wait to be recruited by Li Chuang or Donglu to fill the trench? Moreover, the Wu family's Yiding cavalry have already entered Wang Qingtuo!

"I kept the emperor and Qiantui Master safe and went south!" Cao Huachun asked, "I wonder where the emperor is?"

Zhu Cixiang said: "My father will be escorted by Wu Xiang and we will arrive at Wangqingtuo tonight. Cao Banban, should you take your troops and horses to greet my father?"

"It should, it should..." Cao Huachun said repeatedly, "I have 3,000 brave men here, and they can all go out to meet the emperor!"

"Okay!" Zhu Cixiang suddenly stopped and pulled Cao Huachun along, "Then let's go right away!"

Ah? Go right away? Cao Huachun was stunned again and again, thinking: What are you doing all the way into Wang Qingtuo?

What to do?

Of course it was occupied!

"Wang Qi!" Zhu Cixiang called his East Palace Guard Yingqian Commander Wang Qi.

"I'm here!" Wang Qi quickly strode forward to obey the order.

It turns out that those who arrived with Zhu Cihong and Wu Sanfu were not the Yiding Cavalry, but the Tiger Cavalry Battalion adapted from the Han generals plus some officers and soldiers from the East Palace Guards Battalion. The Tiger Cavalry Battalion was temporarily led by Wu Sanfu, and the East Palace Guards Battalion

It will be commanded by Wang Qi.

"I order you to lead your troops to stay at Wang Qingtuo!" Zhu Cixiang immediately gave the order to Wang Qi, and then said to Cao Huachun, "Cao Banban, order your troops to set off! Don't keep my father waiting.

!”

Cao Huachun looked around and saw that a large group of large soldiers had surrounded him. How dare he disobey Zhu Cixiang? He quickly agreed: "My lord, I obey your order!"

"Okay! Let's set off right away!" Zhu Cixiang has not slept for several days and has traveled more than a hundred miles. Now he just wants to have a good sleep. But who made him a filial son? Emperor Chongzhen and Zhou

The rear is still dozens of miles away! Although it is protected by six to seven thousand mobs commanded by Wu Xiang, Li Ruolian, Zhu Chunjie and others, there are still pursuers behind it!

Therefore, after Zhu Cihong "captured" Wang Qingtuo, he didn't bother to rest. He immediately took Wang Qingtuo's Cao family's men and Wu Sanfu's large cavalry back to pretend to be the "Guanning Iron Cavalry".

This is three to four thousand "Guan Ning's Army"! If it is true, the 8,000 people under Tang Tong's command are not enough to give him a violent beating!

…

The main force of Li Guo and Tang Tong's troops had already set up camp. It was now dark, and most of the 8,000 people under Tang Tong's command were poor soldiers who did not have much to eat. They lacked vitamin A and were all night blind. That is, there were hundreds of servants.

Li Guo's hundreds of veteran soldiers were able to mobilize at night.

So at night, they could only set up camp and let the other party travel all night.

However, they were not worried about escaping Zhu Cixiang (they did not know that Chongzhen was also there), because Hao Yaoqi had already led hundreds of cavalry to move near Tianjin Guard. The Dashun Army had a very key internal support in Tianjin Guard.

You can definitely win the Tianjin Acropolis with Hao Yaoqi Liyingwai.

By then, the crown prince Zhu Cihong will not be the thorn in the urn of the Great Shuntian Army?

In addition, the officials and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who escorted Zhu Cixiang's escape were exhausted after traveling for more than a hundred miles for a day and a night. During the pursuit during the day, many of the Tang family servants who were opening the way ahead were captured.

The laggard officials got a lot of gold and silver!

Look at this, if the chariot lasts just one day, they will collapse.

Therefore, Li Guo and Tang Tong were not in a hurry, so they sent two to three hundred Tang family servants to bluff behind the fleeing Zhu family prince's troops, driving them to exhaust their energy faster. As for the main army, they were safe.

Rest peacefully.

Tomorrow we will pursue again and capture the Zhu family's crown prince in one fell swoop!

In a temporary tent, Li Guo and Tang Tong were sitting and drinking together when they suddenly remembered the voice announcing from outside: "Master Marquis, there is an imperial edict!"

"Imperial decree?" Li Guo was stunned, "Bring it quickly!"

A copy of the imperial edict dictated by Li Zicheng was quickly delivered to Li Guo. When Li Guo opened it and took a look, his expression suddenly changed.

"What's going on?" Tang Tong asked, "Master Hou, what happened?"

Li Guo said: "The capital has been captured!"

"This is a good thing!" Tang Tong looked at Li Guo's face, a little confused.

"But the Emperor of the Zhu family is not in Beijing!" Li Guo said, "One of the two groups of Zhu thieves who ran out from Dongzhimen and Chaoyangmen must be led by the Emperor of the Zhu family!"

A burst of surprise flashed across Tang Tong's face, this was an unparalleled achievement!

"Master Marquis, where do you think the Emperor of the Zhu family will be?"
Chapter completed!
