Thank you for your support from the Infinite Sacred Brothers, thank you.

"What?"

"The main force of the Tartars retreated overnight, and even the whistle chasers retreated?"

Early the next morning, Xu Changqing originally wanted to be lazy and sleep for an extra hour before getting up. After all, the planning these days has really consumed a lot of his energy.

However, before dawn, the news came from the news.

Xu Changqing quickly put on his clothes, but he didn't even have time to wash up, so he hurried to go outside to check.

At this time, snow was still floating in the sky, and most of the world was covered with silver. Only the auxiliary soldiers dealing with the corpses of war horses in the east were still busy.

There were countless continuous wooden racks on the open space outside Xu Changqing's army, and there were many clean war horse corpses hanging, probably tens of thousands of them.

This is a damn thing, let alone this time, even if it is put into later generations, it will definitely be available in a super-large slaughterhouse. It is all of them worth a lot of money.

However.

The Qing army battle formations around were also hidden in this continuous silver suit. It was difficult to find a footprint in the vast world wherever you could see.

In the sky, dozens of hot air balloons have begun to work, including many people who have not collected their energy at night, and have magnified their courage to go out of the battle formation and begin to explore the dead Qing army battle formation around them.

"hiss."

After watching for a while, Xu Changqing couldn't help but gasp and attracted Zhang Hu who was on duty last night and asked what was going on.

Zhang Hu was also a little anxious at this time and reported urgently: "Master, we can't explain it clearly for a while. It snowed heavily last night, and our night-de-stricken cavalry and the Jingqi were always defending the battlefield on the Eastern Front. Until the second half of the night, when the Yin hour was in the middle of the night, there was a guard on the eastern front reporting. Several Qing army squads and whistle cavalry not far ahead began to retreat, and we discovered that the abnormality was found. Then Bei Zhi sent a hot air balloon to patrol and found that the nearby Qing army gathering sites were empty, with only fires and no tents..."

Xu Changqing nodded slowly, "Don't worry, continue to explore, you must figure it out!"

"yes!"

...

More than an hour later, news from all aspects was summarized one after another. The Qing army really retreated, retreating in all directions, with almost no reservation.

Including the Han slave camps that were originally gathered around, they all retreated. The hot air balloon men who were investigating had found their traces. They were all in the north. They had already walked seventeen or eighteen miles away, and the slowest had almost ten miles away. They had left many behind, and they had been buried in the snow. They were probably in danger.

"Master, what's going on? Could it be that we really scared the Tartars' courage. The Tartars no longer dare to do anything to us?"

The generals of the Hongniangzi had gathered to Xu Changqing, but they were excited but couldn't touch them.

Xu Changqing was also speechless.

Dorgon is just farting his belly button. What do you think?

It makes no sense at all.

However, the Model Army had already achieved many results at this time, and before it could be absorbed and digested, it was impossible to pursue the main force of the Qing army in this kind of weather, so we could only wait and see for the time being.

Let the ministries not be flustered and do their own things first. Xu Changqing sat in front of the sand table and fell into thoughts, waiting for further news to come back.

A little more in the Si hour.

Xu Changqing suddenly received news that someone came from Qufu City, either someone else, or Kong Yinzhi's son-in-law, his confidant Chen Junyan.

And Chen Junyan came here on a horse.

As soon as he saw Xu Changqing, Chen Junyan bowed repeatedly, and his handsome little face was about to burst into laughter: "Congratulations to the Marquis, congratulations to the Marquis, the Marquis's power, and directly scared the Tartars' courage. The Tartars have retreated overnight around Qufu City..."

Xu Changqing's face was quiet, but his heart was tighter. He smiled and said, "Brother Chen is so brave. At this time, I dare not act rashly, but Brother Chen dares to come and spread the news. I admire you, admire you."

Chen Junyan couldn't help but laugh even more and said hurriedly: "This is all for the blessing of the marquis. Marquis, the Tartars retreated now, wouldn't they go to Jining City? If the Tartars surrounded Jining again, this..."

Xu Changqing really wanted to pinch Chen Junyan's handsome face a few times. This little white face would not make people feel at ease for a while.

Xu Changqing could only comfort him first and promised him that the model army would not leave Qufu City until it was confirmed that the safety of Qufu City was confirmed.

After sending Chen Junyan, Xu Changqing had already touched something, but he still had a little more accurate news.

However, Xu Changqing did not wait long. At noon, news came back from Jining that all the Tartars around Jining retreated, and they did not even leave Mao, including a large number of Han slaves who had been gathering around Jining.

"Changqing, the Tartars are really afraid. If they retreated now, we can't catch up even if we want to. This is what happened..."

Beside him, Hongniang was very excited, but as the news came from Jining came, Hongniang also realized that it was not a good thing for the Qing army to run away at this time.

After waiting for more than an hour, news came from around that Jining, Qufu, and Han slave camps within a 100-mile surrounding area had already gone north and were very determined.

Xu Changqing was also completely sure of Dorgon’s intention at this time!

He is - I really don't want to play with Model Jun anymore.

Thinking from the perspective of others, this is actually not difficult to guess.

His failure in Jiuxian Mountain this time is far from being a big defeat. With a little concealment, he can be regarded as a complete confession as never before.

As long as the population around Lianghuai is brought back, he can still stabilize the throne under his butt.

This is the gecko's tail broken!

In this kind of weather, the model army is not easy to chase them if they want to chase them.

In the big tent, the charcoal fire was burning strongly, and the tent was as warm as spring, but Xu Changqing couldn't help but pace back and forth with annoyance.

Dorgon's son, who did this, suddenly pushed the pressure back to the Model Army, and even the great victory of Jiuxian Mountain could be ignored.

The Hongniang didn't dare to disturb Xu Changqing's thoughts anymore, and she obediently left the account, allowing Xu Changqing to calm down by himself.

But the Hongniang just went out for a while and suddenly returned. The expression on her pretty face was a bit weird and said softly: "Changqing, Fan Wencheng and Sony are here, can you see them..."

"Um?"

Xu Changqing frowned and looked at Hong Niang's beautiful eyes: "Where is the person?"

The Hongniang was startled by Xu Changqing's expression and said hurriedly: "I have already arrived outside the Central Army. If you want to see them, I will ask someone to call them in..."

“…”

...

"Slave Sony, student Fan Wencheng, met Marquis of Haicheng..."

Soon, Sony and Fan Wencheng carefully came to Xu Changqing's tent.

Xu Changqing had already recovered a little at this time and asked his personal soldiers to serve incense tea. He smiled and said, "Sir Suo, Lord Fan, where is our Regent singing? It's so sudden.

You leave, you don’t even say hello? Do you look down on me, Xu Changqing?"

Sony hurriedly smiled and said, "Mr. Marquis, you are laughing. I am here this time to report this matter to you..."

As he said that, Sony didn't know anything and directly told him the reason.

Dorgon, the regent of the Qing Dynasty, has decided to give up his offensive in the Ming Dynasty, recognize Xu Changqing's control over the Jiangbei region, and left about 300,000 Han slaves for Xu Changqing. They will gather these Han slaves on the Ningyang line and wait for Xu Changqing to come and take them over at any time.

After Sony finished speaking, Fan Wencheng smiled and said, "Marty, it is said that between the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, I am a brotherly country. You can't hurt your kindness because of some trivial matters. Before leaving, the Regent also told the students to personally inform the Martyr that the Regent had decided that after returning to the capital, at most, at the beginning of November, he would send Dong'e to Haicheng to admire the scenery of Haicheng and listen to your teachings. I wonder if you, Martyr, can you let Du Du, the owner of the Red Flag in front of Donge and these 300,000 people... "

"Ha ha."

"Ha ha ha ha."

After hearing the explanation of the two, Xu Changqing laughed furiously: "Mr. Suo, Lord Fan, you Regent has a good plan! Why, together with me, Xu Changqing, is a piece of dough, and you can knead it freely by your Qing Dynasty?!"

Faced with Xu Changqing's tyrannical power, how dare Sony and Fan Wencheng faced him directly? They knelt on the ground, their faces against the wool carpet under their feet, their butts facing the sky, and they didn't dare to breathe.

Looking at the two of them being submissive, Xu Changqing gradually calmed down after being angry. It was useless to get angry with these two dog slaves.

Dorgon's move is a bit clever!

This is a strategy to suppress Xu Changqing from all aspects, such as emotion, reason, and interests.

It's simply a pity!

The Qing army captured about one million people in the Lianghuai area in this battle, and its property was innumerable. Some wealthy families in the Lianghuai area, especially the big salt merchants, were basically cleaned up by them.

That is, Xu Changqing was forced to do so. Tan Bai and Obai and others were unable to attack Nanjing but did not succeed. They did not have time to attack Yangzhou. If Yangzhou was also conquered by them, then half of the Ming Dynasty's economy would be collapsed by them!

The most savvy thing about Dorgon's move is that

Xu Changqing had already recovered more than 100,000 Denglai's population and property in the battle of Qingzhou. If the 300,000 people left by them in this battle were almost nearly 500,000, to a large extent, it was enough for Xu Changqing to explain to all parties.

Even Xu Changqing would be surrounded in for a while.

Seeing Xu Changqing's bad expression, Sony and Fan Wencheng looked at each other and smiled apologized: "Mr. Marquis, of course, if you feel that my Qing Dynasty is not sincere enough, we can discuss it again. It happens that Dong'e is coming, so why should I give you another 500,000 taels of cash silver? Just think that Dong'e has been here for a while and spends money in Haicheng. However, these 500,000 taels of cash silver may not be delivered in Ningyang, and they have to go north. Why don't we stay for a few days and we can trade in Linqing?"

Fan Wencheng also hurriedly said, "Mr. Marquis, the Regent also knows that you seem to lack a middle-aged woman. If Marquis, you want, the students can go back to Tongbing. The population of Ningyang can be replaced by a middle-aged woman, which is not bad at all."

Xu Changqing didn't say anything, but just looked at them coldly.
Chapter completed!
