Zheng Zhilong was ready to leave. Otherwise, what would he still stay in Tianjin? The Tartars would not attack and kill. Even the Zukefa, who had been harassing Anxi Fort, were all Han soldiers who were not seen by him.

Of course, these people will definitely not be seen by the Tartars. Otherwise, looking at the troops outside Beitang, there will be the Eight Banners Tartars and Wu Zhenchao Ha soldiers inside, and there will be a cannon. Let’s see how they fought?

There was a military fort built outside Beitang. He never took the initiative to fight the Beitang Beiying Fort. He only occasionally asked the general of Tianjin Bai Guangen to lead troops to attack.

It’s not like Zu Kefa. It’s a sneak attack every now and then. It’s entirely up to human lives to delay the progress of the project. Zheng Zhilong is already boring in Tianjin.

After all, just the few people in his palms are now safe in the Tianjin Guards, but if you want to have ideas about the capital, it would be too delusional.

So, when Anxi Fortress was built, the entire defense circle of the Tianjin Guards would be roughly alive. He led his troops to lead the ship north, not to go south, but to go north. Before leaving, he would stroll outside the pass.

The current land combat power of Zheng's army is more than enough to defend but less than enough to attack, but it also depends on what the Tartars are like. Dorgon led a large number of troops to enter the Pass. Can the Tartars' strength be the same as before? This is absolutely impossible.

Zheng Zhilong suddenly led his troops outside the pass, and Dorgon would probably be uneasy in the pass. After all, the family members of the Eight Banners, as well as the princes and nobles in Shengjing City, and the young emperor Shunzhi, were still outside the pass.

So, this gives him the opportunity to show off his might, right?

After all, it is unlikely that he will go north in the next one or two years. Because, if everything goes well, in Zheng Zhilong's current situation, it will be a deadlock.

The Zheng army was outside the pass, and there were Qi and Lu in Tianjin, which had restraints the Qing Dynasty, but it was only restraints. It was still too much to defend but not enough to attack.

Li Zicheng seemed to have stabilized his feet. Relying on the dangerous terrain of western Shanxi and the dangerous terrain of Tongguan, as long as Li Zicheng could stabilize, he seemed to be able to defend half of the country...

The Ming army was even more willing but not strong enough. Although Emperor Chongzhen was busy and Zuo Liangyu did not turn against the Jinling regime, the combat power of the Southern Ming army was so weak and the so-called "million-million army" were so false that it was completely a beautiful bubble.

As for Zhang Xianzhong, he would just settle down the Sichuan Zhong first.

The future situation is probably the competition between Li Zicheng and the Qing Dynasty. The others are just playing the role.

Zheng Zhilong also made up his strength and settled Nanyang again, solving his worries in the short term.

Of course, this is just Zheng Zhilong’s personal thoughts, and perhaps Li Zicheng’s thoughts, but this is by no means Zhang Xianzhong’s thoughts, nor is it the thoughts of Emperor Chongzhen and Zuo Liangyu.

With Li Zicheng's misfortune and as Dashun troops were drawn from Hanzhong and Jing Xiang was transferred, Zuo Liangyu and Zhang Xianzhong immediately responded.

The former wrote to Jinling and said that he wanted to restore Jingxiang himself. In fact, he saw that Li Zicheng was a little overwhelmed. Yuan Zongdi had already led the army north and took away some soldiers under Bai Wang. The latter's strength can be said to have fallen to the lowest point in recent times. So how could he not beat the dog in the water? It didn't require the urging of the Jinling court.

You should know that Emperor Chongzhen had just settled in Jinling, and soon sent Chang Yanling, the right general of the Imperial Camp of Huaiyuan Hou, to Jiujiang. Zhu Dadian, who was dismissed from office and returned home, was appointed as the Right Minister of the Ministry of War and the Right Censor of the Right Censor, stationed in Jiujiang and the Governor of Shangjiang Military Affairs.

Is that really just rectifying the military and handling river defense? Zuo Liangyu felt a threat from the east, as if the edge was on his back.

So he wanted to march towards Jiangbei.

Gao Doushu from Yunyang also took the opportunity to contact the outside world and realized that in just two years, current affairs had changed drastically. Fortunately, the Ming Dynasty is still there.

Emperor Chongzhen raised the title of Minister of War of Doushu, and appointed him as the governor of Huguang, and recalled He Tengjiao, who had a very good relationship with Zuo Liangyu, to the court.

Zuo Liangyu could clearly feel Emperor Chongzhen’s malice towards him, but what could he do?

Rebellion?

Although the left army claimed to have an army of 800,000, and could pick and choose at least 200,000 people. It is definitely the largest armed group of the Southern Ming court, if we really want to rebel, we will still make the rebellion of Emperor Chongzhen, which is completely different from his oath to fight against the Hongguang Dynasty.

Can Emperor Chongzhen be compared with Emperor Hongguang?

Not to mention that Chen Tingyang of Chongming was valued by Emperor Chongzhen. Recently, he has selected ships of all sizes and bravery, and has also used many guns, cannons, and prepared military troops like magic. He suddenly jumped into the humerus of the Southern Ming Dynasty. Zuo Liangyu didn't think that the newly built naval army in his hand could win the Sand Boat Gang.

Therefore, whether it is raising the flag to rebel or going east under the banner of "clearing the king's side", it is not a good deed. You must know that Zuo Liangyu's own health is not very good, and he still has a clear idea of ​​this.

In the Xuzhou mutiny, his family died in addition to Zuo Menggeng beside him. This was a big blow to Zuo Liangyu.

Now it is one thing that he is dissatisfied with Emperor Chongzhen's malice, but finding a good and safe destination for his son is another thing, and the latter is even more important.

So, just when Shen Qiyuan and his group were heading to Jinling with the fleet heading south in Tianjin, just when Zheng Zhilong felt that the world was going to be stalemate and then led the fleet northward, Zuo Liangyu once again launched an offensive against the Baiwang unit of the Dashun Army who was staying in Jingxiang.

Huangzhou and De'an were easily captured, and the soldiers have now reached Chengtian Mansion (Zhong Xiang).

There is also Zhang Xianzhong. At this time, the Eight Kings had not yet proclaimed themselves emperor in Chengdu. Chengdu is still in the hands of the Ming army, but the Great Western Kingdom has long existed. Moreover, the entire Sichuan and Shu are in chaos now. As Zhang Xianzhong's military pointed out, it is difficult for the Ming army in Sichuan to fight against each other. It is only a matter of time before this Jinguan City falls into Zhang Xianzhong's hands.

Moreover, although the Eight Kings of the People have not yet been elected as emperor, they established the "Tianming" regime early on. Now they have been in the third year of Tianming, and they call themselves the King of the West. They have set up civil and military officials such as the left and right prime ministers, the six ministers and the governors of the Five Armies.

Zhang Xianzhong also established the country. Even though the entire Daxi Kingdom was just a straw troupe and the doctor Hu Lipu was the prime minister at the beginning, the Daxi Kingdom still had the dignity. Li Zicheng took advantage of his airplane in Sichuan and Sichuan to take Hanzhong first and even stared at Sichuan, which made Zhang Xianzhong very dissatisfied.

The territory on the east side of Sichuan and Sichuan has been occupied by Li Zicheng, and the Hanzhong in the north has also been occupied by Li Zicheng. Aren’t his eight kings a turtle turtle?

So, while Li Zicheng was in trouble and when Li Zicheng transferred all the soldiers from Hanzhong, he asked Li Dingguo to lead his troops to attack Hanzhong.

Although Lao Zhang's reputation in later generations has always been inferior to Li Zicheng, it gives people the feeling that he has always been weaker than Li Zicheng. But in fact, the revolutionary qualifications of the Eight Kings of Man are much deeper than Li Zicheng. When it was so glorious, it was absolutely glorious.

Burning the imperial tombs, traversing the Central Plains, fighting bloody battles in Huguang, sweeping across the southwest.

Earlier, Zhang Xianzhong won most of Jiangxi. The Yuezhou water battle won a great victory and completely wiped out the Zuo Liangyu's navy. The attack caused Zuo Liangyu to flee in panic. The troops arrived in Changsha, and the deputy general Yin Xianmin and He Yide led their troops to surrender. The troops arrived in Yongzhou. Tens of thousands of Ming troops broke into pieces and trampled on each other. The dead were all counted.

The troops swept across Hunan and Chu, and He Tengjiao's memorial to the capital said that "all Chu was trapped."

But what is strange is that Zhang Xianzhong, who had occupied most of Huguang and most of Jiangxi, suddenly withdrew his troops in Jingzhou, happily gave up the territory of the two lakes and Jiangxi, and gathered a large army of 400,000 troops into Sichuan and Sichuan. Good news spread along the way, and fish were shattered up and down from east to east, birds were frightened, and the prefectures and counties were disintegrated.

Now Zhang Xianzhong has to divide his troops into two groups, one by him, and the other by his adopted son Zhang Dingguo (Li Dingguo) to compete with the Dashun Army for the northern Sichuan region - Hanzhong.

Li Zicheng is now attacked from three sides, and it is possible to add Chongzhen's "direct" troops at any time, because the saying of "union of enemies and pacifying the enemy" in Jinling City is still rampant, and Zheng Zhilong's memorials are of no use at all.

Many ministers in the Jinling court still supported Lianhu and pacify the enemy. For them, killing Li Zicheng seemed to be the first priority. In front of Li Zicheng, all the defenses of Chinese and foreigners became empty.

So, Zheng Zhilong’s ideas are absolutely not a substitute for the ideas of the people in the world.

...

Niuzhuang, as the first time the Tatars truly realized the difficulty of Zheng’s army, was focused on the Tartars after being abandoned by Zheng Zhilong. At that time, Huang Taiji ordered the establishment of a river-blocking cable at the entrance of the sea and the arrangement of military guards. But in fact it was just a police whistle. Once the Zheng army came over, a beacon fire would light at the entrance of the sea, and the news would be conveyed soon.

The defenders who usually stationed in Niuzhuang have a full Jiala.

Even if Dorgon's army went south, there was a half-Niulu soldiers here. In addition, Baoyi Ahari's young and strong people were all there. If we count the Ahanikan (Hannu) who could gather his subordinates, the young and strong people would probably have more than 2,000 people.

Matsumoto, Jialazhangkyo, thought that Niuzhuang would be as solid as a god. Although the Zheng army on Juehua Island left, it was impossible for him to quickly capture Niuzhuang with more than 2,000 male men.

As long as they are blocked in Niuzhuang, soon the flag soldiers from all directions will come.

However, what Zhi Risong never expected was that the army that appeared in front of him now was such a large army!

Several centipede ships rushed to the mouth of the sea, and with a burst of cannons, easily dispersing the defenders there. Then they set up a stove to break the iron cables blocking the river, and the large army went upstream.

When warships arrived in front of Niuzhuang City, the Risong and the first-class Angbang Zhangjing Ashan who led their troops from Anshan to rescue were stunned.

How can they resist this?

With so many warships, you can tell how many soldiers Zheng Zhilong brought with you with his toes. What about Niuzhuang City at this time?
