The core of blitzkrieg is speed!
Attack the enemy fortress at a rapid speed, penetrate deep into the enemy's heart, thereby quickly dividing the battlefield and cutting the battlefield again, leaving the opponent with no room for reaction.
At this time, due to the restrictions of the times and without the blessing of aircraft and tanks, the Qing army's blitzkrieg could not reach the level of the German army back then, and could only be regarded as a pseudo-blitzkrieg.
However, this effect is still amazing!
In the movie "The Godfather", there is a classic saying from the generation Corleon: "The best deterrent is not to act, because if you do it, once you fail or fail to achieve the desired effect, the deterrent will disappear."
Although the Qing army only conquered Pinggu and Tongzhou at this time, it also blocked communications in Tongzhou, Pinggu and Xianghe with its strong mobility advantages, making it difficult for many news in these areas to spread.
And without news means falling.
At this time, except for the elites on the nine sides, no one dared to go out of the city to fight with the Qing army.
Even though there were only two thousand people outside Tongzhou City and five or six Niulu Qing troops, the more than 100,000 Beijing camp men in the capital could only watch from a distance and did not dare to come out at all.
"Report—"
"Xuanfu Town urgently reported--"
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, the sound of horse hooves running mixed with harsh shouts rushed straight towards the Forbidden City.
Soon, Emperor Chongzhen and the bigwigs who were in the morning court received news that silenced them.
The Qing army's Blue Banner and the Yellow Banner of the Qing army had entered the hinterland of Xuanfu Town with about 10,000 people.
This made the already noisy court even more noisy, and the crowds of people quarreled over whether the elites on the nine sides should immediately enter Beijing to serve the king.
Emperor Chongzhen's cold sweat continued to surge outwards.
After being an emperor for more than ten years, even though he had never been to the battlefield in person, Emperor Chongzhen also understood the degree of the crisis at this time.
Now the main force of the Qing army has entered the pass, and basically stuck in the main roads of Liaodong, Jizhen, and even Miyun.
If you are anxious about the elite nine-sided kings, if something happens, it will be no joke.
To maintain the status quo, even if the Qing army can break through one or two or several cities, at least the elite can be preserved.
And if a wrong decision is made, then the entire Ming Dynasty will be in danger.
In the end, Emperor Chongzhen made a rare correct decision, first watching the situation, strengthening the defense of the capital, and then recruiting reinforcements after the situation became a little clearer.
After all, the capital city has high walls and thick walls, and the manpower and supplies are pretty good. The Tartars have been to the capital before, and it has been far more than once. It is not that easy to break through the capital city. Emperor Chongzhen is still a little confident.
And the next day, Emperor Chongzhen received a new battle report, and the main force of the Qing army's Inlaid White Banner Division had already entered the hinterland of Baoding Prefecture.
This also made Emperor Chongzhen breathe a little relieved.
His judgment yesterday was correct. The Tartars came here just to make money. As long as they grabbed enough things, they would definitely leave.
...
However, at this moment, the main force of the Qing army led by Dorgon and Duoduo brothers was 50,000 or 60,000 people, and it had already surrounded Yutian!
They rushed over overnight last night, and in just one night, they filled in many fortifications outside Yutian City. It was noon before midday, and the huge slaves were about to push the fortifications to Yutian City.
"Shishuai, it's not good! The Tartars clearly want to kill us! Dorgon and Dodo's royal flag have arrived, and this may be a scale of 60,000 to 70,000 people..."
"Shishen, the hero will not suffer any loss in front of him. We are definitely not opponents of the Tartars. Let's prepare to break through!"
"Yes, Mr. Shuai, Yutian City has a small number of people. If you don't break through, I'm afraid you may not be able to survive today..."

On the top of the city, many generals and officials around Cao Bianjiao could no longer sit still.
They are all old fry, and they all have experienced battle formations for a long time. Many of them even followed Xu Changqing to kill Huang Taiji. They naturally understand the dangers of things!
"Yutian Bo, you can't break through, you can't break through. Once you break through, what should the more than 30,000 people in this city do?"
On this side, the county magistrate of Yutian knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately.
His surname is Li, and he was a Jinshi in Chongzhen for 12 years. He stayed in the Hanlin Academy for more than three years and only sat on the throne of the magistrate. However, he did not expect that he had not yet had a hot but could encounter such a situation.
He was born in a poor family and was almost forty years old this year. He really fought hard to gain his current future. How could he let it go?
Cao Bianjiao was wearing silver armor, glanced at the generals around him, and then glanced at Li County Magistrate Li, and said in a deep voice: "I, Cao, have been deeply favored by the emperor. If you break through at this time, where will the tens of thousands of people be placed in Yutian? Don't talk about this matter again! Everyone has it, go to various positions immediately and prepare to defend the city!"
"Shishen..."
"Execute the command!"
"yes!"
The generals, almost all of them, quickly returned to their respective positions in their crying voices.
"Dong, dun, dun..."
At this time, there was a sudden loud drum sound in the Qing army formation.
The main forces of the Two Yellow Banners and Zhenglan Banners, which had been preparing for a long time, were covered by many Han military flag servants, with more than 30 Niulu and tens of thousands of troops rushing forward from all directions and starting to enter the rhythm of siege.
Seeing that Cao Bianjiao did not break through, but wanted to defend the small Yutian city, Duoduo couldn't help but be surprised: "Is this Cao surnamed foolish? He didn't break through! Damn it, this dog Nikan wasted so much of his thoughts."
Dorgon smiled and was in a very good mood: "If you don't come out, you can save some trouble. I will order Rao Yubeile and Oboi. In an hour, I will see the result!"
"twitter!"
As Dorgon's order was passed on, countless Qing troops seemed to have been injected with chicken blood, and their speed suddenly increased a lot.
"Brothers, fire the fire! Kill a dog, mom, the dog Tartars!"
On the top of the city, a Qin army yelled at the fire of artillery.
"boom!"
"Boom boom boom..."
Suddenly, three or four local cannons mixed with three or four Folang machines began to fire frantically.
However, Yutian City has a small population and is not a military fortress. The humble firepower is really outrageous.
If it were just a few thousand Tartars, maybe they could still fight.
But at this time, facing the main force of the Qing army of 50,000 or 60,000 people, they were like an isolated island surrounded by a terrifying tide, and the ending was already destined...
After two rounds of tickling artillery bombardment, one of the local cannons exploded, and it immediately exploded over a dozen soldiers around it, and arose a cry of mourning and screaming.
After all, Cao Bianjiao was Yutian Bo, and many of his men under his command were considered meritorious troops. The generals quickly controlled the scene. The civilians hurriedly carried the wounded down and the new auxiliary soldiers rushed up.
But this old cannon is not only weak in power, but also speechless in quality.
If you fire at a normal pace, you may still be able to sustain five or six shots, six or seven shots, but at this time, such a high-intensity shooting speed is destined to be a blowout.
Soon, these artillery bombs continued to explode.
Fortunately, the soldiers around were all prepared and avoided them from afar, and there were not much casualties.
But at this time, the Qing army's fierce attack had already rushed to the top of the city!
"Brothers, kill the damn Tartars! We have killed the army of slave chief Huang Taiji!"
"Kill the Tartars!"
"Hold on, and chase the doggy-goodie!"
The first thing to attack the north gate was the north gate. On the cloud ladders, there were many white-armored soldiers of two yellow flags. They held various heavy weapons, and were covered with various small flags and were covered with armor all over their bodies. They were not afraid of ordinary wooden rolling stones and other attacks. In the blink of an eye, they rushed to the top of the city.
Cao Bianjiao

Although the army has been expanded over the past year, it is obviously incomparable to Xu Changqing. Not only is there little material resources and salary, but there is also very little military source.
Moreover, Cao Bianjiao did not understand the essence of the recruitment, and many of the troops were actually not very qualified.
In a moment, as the old army was driven out of space by these white-armored soldiers, many new recruits suddenly panicked, and they cried and ran away from all directions.
However, Cao Bianjiao's troops, with less than 6,000, had to defend the four-sided city walls, which were four or five miles long, and the weakness soon began to appear.
"Those who dare to escape will be killed without mercy! Brothers, kill the Tartars with me!"
Cao Bianjiao quickly went into battle himself, swinging his Guan Ye sword, as sharp as before.
Unfortunately, in the face of such a general trend, even a drop in the bucket...
"Master Shuai, you can't fight anymore. If you fight again, your brothers will lose even some seeds..."
The deputy general rushed over with tears in his eyes.
Seeing the old brothers around him fall one after another, Cao Bianjiao was already in tears.
According to his intelligence system, his elite level of Ye Busuo's command had already discovered the movements of the main force of the Qing army.
Moreover, he knew very well that the Dorgon brothers would not let him go no matter what!
But he gave up the opportunity to break through early and wanted to live and die with Yutian City...
To be continued...
