At noon, the floods around had basically calmed down. Even though the world was still full of mud and was messy everywhere, the threat of the flood also disappeared.

And the weather is very good today, and the sun has been very good. Judging from this, it probably won’t rain today.

In this way, unless the Qing army in the upstream still has a water storage point that has not erupted, at least today's daytime is very safe.

In this morning, the remnants of the Zhengbai Banner in the mountains and forests had basically been wiped out. Even if there were a few fish that were like rats that were missing the net, they could be completely negligible.

As the supplies brought by the cavalry also went up the mountain, many large tents were built on the top of the mountain camp, which had become a formal camp.

Central Army, Xu Changqing's big tent.

Chunni was lying on Xu Changqing's camp bed, sleeping sweetly, while Xu Changqing was taking the battle report that had just been summarized by several polite officials and watching carefully.

In the raid of Ajige, the Model Army suffered a large casualties, with nearly 200 people.

Although only the forty people were killed in battle, they were still within the scope of acceptance, if we counted it, this was a serious casualty rate in the Model Army in recent years.

In this regard, Xu Changqing seems to have an unshirkable responsibility.

I am still too greedy and say that the snake swallowed the elephant a bit too much, but if it is in a normal state, this casualty rate can be completely avoided.

Fortunately, the results were remarkable.

Not only did Ajige capture alively, but more than 900 Zhen Manchus were killed, but there were nine people at the core of Zhen Manchus above Jialazhangjing. In addition, more than 4,000 best war horses were captured and countless weapons and armor were countless, which was definitely the most valuable battle of the Ming Dynasty in decades.

This made Xu Changqing's miscommand in command in this battle easily erased.

When several poliest officials came to report their merits just now, they were full of excitement and did not notice any strangeness at all...

Even they are like this, so don't mention others.

This made Xu Changqing feel relieved and was constantly alerting himself.

As the leader of the Model Army, a leader who has grown into a giant monster-like interest group, often, we still have to be very cautious.

After reading the battle report, Xu Changqing carefully checked Chunni's wounds and covered her with a quilt. This is how to get out of the tent and move her to move.

At this time, Wang Pu's four troops were already summarizing this mountainous area, and it would definitely not be possible to directly attack the main force of the Qing army, but the problem of harassment was not big.

By this time, the initiative in this war had completely fallen to the Ming Dynasty. To be precise, it was completely fallen to Xu Changqing.

But Xu Changqing will no longer be rash at this time.

The human heart is not enough and the snake swallows the elephant!

Xu Changqing understood very well that it was enough to break the sharp edge of the Qing army at this time and shake their foundation.

If the rear is not stable and you need to adjust your rest, and you will stare at the main force of the Qing army and you will be stupid.

It should be noted that the rabbit is still biting people when it is anxious, not to mention that the main force of the Qing army was not injured.

Moreover, Xu Changqing didn't know the details of Gaoyou Lake at this time, and he was still worried.

The best situation now is to take some wool off the Qing army without any silence, but they can't feel the pain and make them lose their lives, so they can retreat under such similar situations.

"Master General, Dorgon's handwritten letter to you..."

Just as Xu Changqing was walking with his hands behind his back and scrutinized his thoughts, Wang Xi followed him quickly and reported in a low voice.

"Hmm? Take it."

Xu Changqing frowned slightly.

What's going on?

Which is Dorgon’s trouble? Will he discuss peace again?

After reading Dorgon's secret letter, Xu Changqing was stunned on the spot and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

The moment he opened the secret letter, Xu Changqing thought about many possibilities. Although it was just a moment, it could still bring some pressure to Xu Changqing.

But it is...

Never dreamed that Dorgon actually... wanted to use Wu Sanfeng's safety to hang Ajige's life to talk about it...

Is this a joke?

If they want to negotiate peace in this state, Xu Changqing would be a little troublesome. After all, it was difficult for Xu Changqing to give up easily after finally getting such an opportunity?

If we accumulate step by step according to the normal state, not to mention the extra ones, the model army, including the entire Ming Dynasty, will take at least five years before it can be proactive to the Qing army.

At this time, Dorgon and the others actually talked about Wu Sanfeng's life?

But after being speechless and funny, Xu Changqing gradually felt some of the deep meanings of Dorgon and others.

To put it bluntly, they have reached this state and they don’t want to continue fighting anymore, and this willingness is even more intense than that of Xu Changqing!

They don't want to negotiate peace yet.

Just like, the number of points that will be lost with them will only be more.

If you can come up with this ridiculous routine, you may not have a choice.

Xu Changqing definitely wouldn't care about Wu Sanfeng's life or death. He had never even seen Wu Sanfeng's face.

What's more, it is related to the general trend of the world. A mere "poor relative" is afraid that even a sound will not be heard.

But after real calming down, Xu Changqing also discovered their high-end and tricky skills!

This is a very advanced trap for him, Xu Changqing, whether Xu Changqing wants to preserve his reputation as a noble person?

They have not revealed the news yet!

After sorting out the joints, Xu Changqing was a little amused and laughed. This man was anxious and it was hard to say, even Dorgon and others who seemed to be superior Manchu and Mongolian royals.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Xu Changqing decided to maintain this tacit understanding with Dorgon.

On the one hand, Xu Changqing also needed them to withdraw their troops as soon as possible and then quickly clean up the mess. On the other hand, only by agreeing to them can they relax and 'boil the frogs in warm water'.

Another point is that Wu Sanfeng reported the letter to Xu Changqing, and it was reasonable. Xu Changqing was not good at ignoring Wu Sanfeng's crisis.

Xu Changqing was not in a hurry to reply to Dorgon, but was waiting patiently for the detailed information from Gaoyou Lake to come.

At Shen Shichu, news from Gaoyou Lake finally came. The Qing army had no water storage points, and all water storage points were released.

Xu Changqing only relaxed at this time and sent a reply to Dorgon and others.

The general meaning is, ‘It’s okay to replace people, but not now, you will talk about it after you withdraw your troops.’

...

The news reached the Qing army camp, and Dorgon and his friends were a little bored after seeing it.

Duoduo couldn't help but spat, "What does Xu Changqing mean? What is he trying to do when he drags it like this? Are you hanging us?"

Dorgon frowned and said nothing.

Jirgalang also frowned, not knowing what he was thinking about.

After a while, Jirgalang suddenly slapped his thigh and sneered: "Regent, Prince Yu, this matter is probably a bad thing!

”

"Brother Six, don't keep it aside, what should I say about this?"

Duoduo was a little anxious and looked at Jirgalang.

Dorgon hurriedly came over.

Jirgalang smiled in control: "Xu Changqing also wants us to withdraw the troops. He is afraid he can't hold on. And according to his meaning, he obviously doesn't want to report the matter of Prince Wuying! Isn't this the most beneficial news to my Qing Dynasty?"

"this……"

Duoduo was still a little confused, but Dorgon suddenly came to his senses and his eyes lit up: "Sixth Brother, then, according to your intention, what should I do in the Qing Dynasty?"

"retreat!"

Jirgalang simply said decisively: "Now we will withdraw our troops, but to let Xu Changqing send Lao Twelve back before we arrive in Shandong! Otherwise, we will go and grab Haicheng!"

"My, wonderful. Haha."

Duoduo finally came to his senses and gave Jirgalang a thumbs up.

Dorgon also showed a smile on his face: "Since that's the case, then retreat! Sixth brother, fifteenth, everything is up to you!"

...

In less than half an hour, Xu Changqing received the news that the Qing army had retreated and couldn't help but clench his fists tightly!

Sure enough, "go" is the hard truth of life.

Just as Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding ancestor of this dynasty, both had a life creed.

The difference is that the overlord's creed is, "If you don't return home without wealth, you should walk around in the night with a bright clothes."

Zhu Yuanzhang's creed was: "Build high walls, accumulate grain, and be king slowly."

After all, the overlord is the overlord, and he is unparalleled.

But in the face of the bloody reality, no matter how domineering or unparalleled it is, is there another bird to use?

...

After waiting for another half an hour, the news of the Qing army's retreat became more accurate and more news came, and Xu Changqing spread the news throughout the army.
To be continued...
