(The competition on the new book list is fierce, Xiaodao is asking for all kinds of support~)

After Li Zicheng finished training the soldiers of the three armies outside Yongding Gate, the entire Li Zicheng regiment stood up from camp amidst the sound of cannons and headed straight for Shanhaiguan.

In fact, Li Zicheng did not lead an army of 500,000 people. Although Li Zicheng claimed to have an army of 500,000 people, in fact, he had less than 100,000 soldiers who could truly be called elite soldiers in hundreds of battles: Li Zicheng had 20,000 personal troops under his command, and Li Yan commanded 20,000 cavalry.

Liu Zongmin had 20,000 armored soldiers. These 60,000 elite soldiers were Li Zicheng's core combat force. In addition, He Yaoqi and He Jin each had 10,000 elite soldiers. These 80,000 soldiers were the real Li Zicheng regiment.

Most of the remaining teams were second-line teams, and some were even just ordinary farmers attached to Li Zicheng's regiment. They would just follow the charge with weapons in hand, and there was no chance of a real battle with these people.

Therefore, when Li Zicheng went to Shanhaiguan this time, he did not take away all the 500,000 people. Except for the most elite teams, the rest of the personnel were handed over to Li Jiantai for reorganization. Those who could be used were kept, and those who could not be used were left behind.

Finding a way to relocate it elsewhere has nothing to do with Li Zicheng.

This time when going to Shanhaiguan, in addition to Li Zicheng's own troops, Wang Jiayan, the right minister of the Ministry of War, also brought 20,000 troops to accompany him. One was to monitor Li Zicheng. After all, Li Zicheng had just surrendered. Even though Wu Fan trusted Li Zicheng very much, Fan Jingwen

However, they had to take some precautions. Another task of Wang Jiayan was to ensure that Li Zicheng could successfully take over the defense of Shanhaiguan, and also to bring the elite Liaodong soldiers who originally guarded Shanhaiguan back to Beijing.

In this way, Wu Fan followed the 100,000-strong army and marched toward Shanhaiguan at ease. On the way, Luo Yangxing, the commander of the Jinyiwei, led a large group of Jinyiwei to the army. However, Luo Yangxing knew that Wu Fan was also in the army.

He was suddenly startled and crawled to the ground to say hello to Wu Fan.

When Li Zicheng invaded the capital, Luo Yangxing misjudged the world situation and believed that the capital could not be saved anyway, so he had been busy arranging a safe route for Chongzhen to retreat to "South" and "Beijing", and even

He did not rush back to the capital. Unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed. Li Zicheng, the first rebel of the Ming Dynasty, actually led all his men to accept the recruitment. As a result, Luo Yangxing not only failed to get any credit, but became a typical example of greed for life and fear of death.

Wu Fan didn't blame Luo Yangxing. After all, Luo Yangxing's original idea of ​​​​arranging a retreat for Chongzhen was not unreasonable. If Wu Fan hadn't cheated, maybe Wu Fan would have used Luo Yangxing's arrangement.

Escape route.

Wu Fan comforted Luo Yangxing and explained that things in the past were forgotten. During this period, Jinyiwei must find out the whereabouts of Wu Sangui as soon as possible. The grateful Luo Yangxing burst into tears in front of Wu Fan and couldn't control himself. He vowed to find Wu Sangui within a month.

Wu Sangui's traces to repay the saint's grace.

Ten days later, the army arrived in Liaodong.

Li Zicheng's work of taking over the defense of Liaodong went very smoothly. With Wang Jiayan as the governor, all the ministries in Liaodong did not make any resistance on the surface. In private, Luo Yangxing led the Jinyiwei to intimidate him everywhere like a mad dog, so that this change of wind and rain was inseparable.

Completed with surprise.

Wu Fan had nothing to do in the past few days, so he took Su Zhenhai and Li Letong to have a good tour around Shanhaiguan. In later generations, Wu Fan would not have the opportunity to travel to Shanhaiguan, which is known as the most powerful pass in the world. This time can be regarded as

Had a great time.

Of course, Shanhaiguan at this time did not have winding stone steps everywhere like later generations, and it was quite difficult to climb up. However, with Wu Fan's physical fitness at this time, he could climb to the top of the mountain in one breath without panting. The steep terrain was not

difficulty.

When Wu Fan was indulging in the magnificent scenery among the lofty mountains, he suddenly received an urgent report from Li Zicheng that there was a sudden movement in the Manchu Qing Jierha Lianglang tribe outside the pass, and it seemed that he was about to send troops to attack Shanhaiguan.

Wu Fan was immediately shocked by the news. He was still unsure. In his memory, Li Zicheng was once beaten to pieces by Dorgon's cavalry. He was driven out by the braided army within a few days of being emperor in the capital.

. If Li Zicheng were to play a historical show at Shanhaiguan and be defeated by the Qing soldiers, all Wu Fan's previous efforts would be in vain.

However, Wu Fan had to rely on Li Zicheng at this time, because Wu Sangui's old troops stationed in Liaodong were already under the supervision of Wang Jiayan.

Will Yan Dajun be recruited again? It also shows that Wu Fan doesn't trust Li Zicheng too much.

Wu Fan knew that he did not know anything about military matters, so he did not give any instructions to Li Zicheng. He just told Li Zicheng that he would not interfere with the Liaodong military affairs and would leave everything to Li Zicheng.

Therefore, the general Li Yan raised his troops and went out of the customs, preparing to fight with the Qing troops in Jierhalang and test them out.

Wu Fan's knowledge of Li Yan all comes from storytelling novels. He knew that Li Yan was a versatile man in both civil and military affairs. Li Zicheng only started to become famous after getting Li Yan's refuge. It was only after he entered the capital that Li Yan

He was jealous of Li Zicheng and died tragically under a glass of poisonous wine.

As for Jierharang's name, Wu Fan had only heard it twice in TV dramas. In his impression, Jierhalang seemed to be a famous general in the Qing Dynasty. As for how powerful he was, he was not sure. After searching on his mobile phone, Wu Fan

Fancai knew that Jierhalang was the nephew of **Hachi. He was very smooth in dealing with people and was deeply loved by **Hachi. He had a good relationship with Huang Taiji and Dorgon. At the same time, Jierhalang could be regarded as

One of the famous generals in the early Qing Dynasty, he was extremely brave on the battlefield and claimed to be invincible in every attack.

Wu Fan personally ran to the Shanhaiguan Gate Tower to watch Li Yan fight against Jierhalang. Because he was nervous, Wu Fan stretched one hand into his arms and clutched his cell phone tightly. If Li Yan was defeated, Wu Fan was prepared to grit his teeth and spend more time.

Nian Shou modified this Jierhalang, so that Jierhalang would not really break through Shanhaiguan, and Wu Fan would not be able to cry at that time.

War drums sounded, flags danced outside Shanhaiguan, and the shouts of killing shook the sky. It was obvious that the battle had begun. Wu Fan stretched his neck and looked for a long time, but could not see anything. Li Zicheng, Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance, Su Zhenhai and others were beside him.

His face was calm, and his emotions and anger were expressionless, making it impossible for Wu Fan to judge the battle situation through the reactions of others, making Wu Fan feel very dull.

Out of boredom, Wu Fan inadvertently turned his head and saw Li Letong looking at the battle in the distance with his eyebrows flying. He seemed very excited and couldn't help but ask: "Letong, has General Li Yan gained the upper hand? I see you are so happy.

Aren’t our troops going to win?”

When Li Letong heard Wu Fan's question, he turned to look at Wu Fan and said with a simple smile: "Your Majesty, I don't know who will lose or win. I am happy as long as I see a fight. If at this time I can rush forward and cut him down in person."

If there are eight, I will be even happier."

Wu Fan suddenly felt a little angry. He was even more depressed when he thought that he actually asked a fool about the direction of the war. He simply said hello to Li Zicheng, left the tower and went to a rest area to rest.

After Wu Fan drank the seventeenth bowl of tea, he saw Li Zicheng leading Song Xiance and others to the lounge with smiles on their faces. As soon as Li Zicheng came in, he immediately clasped his fists and told Wu Fan: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, General Li Yan

After successfully defeating the Manchu and Qing thieves, he led his troops to pursue them. General Liu Zongmin acted as a side response and sent his troops northward. This time, the Manchu and Qing thieves suffered a big loss and no longer dared to peek at our Ming border for a short period of time.

"

Wu Fan immediately jumped up from his chair, grabbed Li Zicheng's arm and asked: "You mean Li Yan won? We won so easily?"

Song Xiance said with a smile on the side: "Your Majesty, General Li Yan is good at using surprise troops in battles. Jierhalang clearly underestimated the enemy just now. General Li Yan sent people to seize his side road. Jierhalang was the leader.

The troops were almost wiped out, and after being severely hit by this, if Jierhalang does not retreat, I am afraid that when General Liu Zongmin completes the roundabout deployment, he Jierhalang will not even think about going back."

Wu Fan was immediately overjoyed. Li Yan was really awesome. He actually gave Jierhalang a slap in the face without saying a word. Although Wu Fan didn't know much about military affairs, he also knew that Li Yan had won the first battle.

Such a beautiful fight greatly boosted the morale of Li Zicheng's regiment, which was stationed at Shanhaiguan for the first time. It was very helpful for Li Zicheng to guard Liaodong and deter the Manchus who were closing in on the Qing Dynasty.

In the next three days, good news came frequently. Li Yan actually drove Jierharang away for nearly a hundred miles in one breath. He had already pressed the Ningyuan front line, and forcibly extended the Ming Dynasty's defense line that had been shrinking since the seventh year of Chongzhen.

A hundred miles away, not to mention Wu Fan who was extremely excited, the people in Liaodong were also overjoyed to learn about the king's majesty. Wu Sangui's name was quickly forgotten by people.

The news of the victory was delivered to the capital, which also caused great cheers in the capital. Li Zicheng's reputation as the world's greatest commander was noisy, and Li Zicheng's name once again caused a stir in the north and south. In the minds of insiders who knew that Wu Fan had personally conquered Shanhaiguan, Wu Fan

The image of the sage king Fan was even more brilliant. If Wu Fan hadn't been so wise and decisive, how could the current emperor have achieved such a great victory as soon as he arrived at Shanhaiguan?

Witnessing the power of Li Zicheng's elite soldiers, Wu Fan immediately felt relieved. At this point, Wu Fan no longer considered the threat of the Manchus outside the pass. Li Yan and others were so powerful on the battlefield that Wu Fan once again played Dorgon as a Dou.

, it is impossible for the Manchu Qing to rise again in the future.

After putting the Manchus aside, Wu Fan began to consider the task of killing Wu Sangui again. After this period of delay, there were less than 50 days left to complete the task. Up to now, Wu Fan could not even master it.

The exact trace of Wu Sangui made Wu Fan start to feel a little impatient.

Could it be that Wu Sangui had really fled to Shengjing at this time? If not, why was it that Luo Yangxing's Jinyiwei had almost dug out and checked every ant nest between the capital and Shanhaiguan, but Wu Sangui was still not found?
