    Chapter 1,382

    Regarding Master Hanke¡¯s suggestion to her to withdraw her troops from Xiangyang Mansion, Princess Changping couldn¡¯t help but feel a little embarrassed?  Apart from other things, Xiangyang Mansion is located at a strategic point.  What if I withdrew my troops from Xiangyang Mansion with my troops?  I'm afraid that the small Nanming court behind him no longer has any barrier to rely on?  As for Emperor Hongguang, who had just ascended the throne, Princess Changping didn't have a good opinion of him.  Whether he is dead or alive has nothing to do with him?  Even if he was executed on the spot by the Eight Banners Cavalry, Princess Changping would never feel any pain towards him.  It's just that Nanjing was the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties and the companion capital of the Ming Dynasty.  Once Princess Changping overthrows Xiangyang Mansion and the Eight Banners Cavalry takes advantage of this opportunity to march in, Nanjing City will soon fall under the opponent's iron hoof.

    And if this happens, the Ming Dynasty can be considered a complete explanation.  This is tantamount to destroying the last obsession and spiritual sustenance of the people of the Central Plains, and those people who are still stationed in various cities of the Southern Ming Dynasty with the Ming Military Academy will definitely be implicated in some ways, and only then  This is a scene that the Ming Princess cannot bear to see.  But even if he grits his teeth and sticks to Xiangyang Mansion?

    For yourself, there are no reinforcements behind you who can come in time to help you?  Moreover, one must always be on guard against the small Nanming court behind him, in case the other party takes advantage of the Eight Banners cavalry to attack Xiangyang Mansion?  Is he waiting behind him to give him a hard blow?  Although the city wall of Xiangyang Prefecture is tall and extremely strong, and there are thousands of catty gates on the six sides of the city gates that can be used in emergencies.  And inside each city gate, there is a cave on the left and right that can hide hundreds of military officers.  Just in case the city gate is lost?  Can you break out of the hidden soldier cave and intercept the enemy soldiers and horses in this narrow city gate?  More importantly, in front of each of these six city gates, there is an urn city, blocking the main city gate and becoming an outer city gate.  At the same time, there is also a very wide moat, which can reach more than 180 meters wide, surrounding its six outer city gates, and Xiangyang City itself is backed by high mountains, making it easier to defend and harder to attack.  But with the coming of winter, all the ice on the moat has already been frozen.  Naturally, it will not be able to play its original blocking role.  But even so, what if the Eight Banners Cavalry wanted to capture Xiangyang City?  Without paying a certain price?  But you don't even think about stepping into the city?

    And for such a dangerous city, Master Hanke suggested that he just abandon it?  This made Princess Changping feel somewhat unhappy about this.  If not, what if Master Hanke is a distinguished guest from the Northeast Army?  I'm afraid that Princess Changping had already ordered her and her men to blast him out of the hall and let him cool down first?  However, Master Hanke was sent here by that person.

    As the saying goes, you can't look at the face of the Buddha without looking at the monk's face. How could you make your fateful enemy unable to step down for a while?  And what about holding a grudge against yourself for this matter?  And what Master Hanke said this time cannot but be said to have some truth.  Even if Princess Changping doesn¡¯t understand these things in the military?  But what kind of situation is Xiangyang City in now?  She knew this very well.  Today's Xiangyang City, after losing Li Zicheng's Xi'an City as a barrier, has completely reduced to a truly isolated city.  What if the Eight Banners soldiers and horses come to attack Xiangyang City now?

    It can be said that Xiangyang City is very likely to be attacked from both sides?  As for the small court of Nanming, will they take advantage of the Eight Banners Army to attack Xiangyang Mansion?  In order to buy a good deal from Dorgon, he stabbed the Xiangyang Mansion from behind?  After all, no one can say for sure about this kind of thing.  But after Emperor Hongguang deceived Princess Changping into his land.  Let¡¯s look at the matter of wanting to hand Princess Changping into Dorgon¡¯s hands?  It is quite possible that Emperor Hongguang took advantage of the Eight Banners cavalry to attack Xiangyang City, and helped the Eight Banners cavalry behind the scenes to deliver a fatal blow to the defenders in Xiangyang City?

    And using this to please Dorgon?  Finally agreed to divide the river and rule with the small court of Nanming?  After all, one's own interests are above all else, compared with being able to survive well?  Everything about others, including their lives, can be sacrificed for them.  Of course, there are not many people with narrow-minded ideas such as holders?  But that doesn¡¯t mean that people who hold such ideas are wrong?  Princess Changping felt a little embarrassed by Master Hanke's proposal?  After thinking for a moment, he could only temporarily shirk it and said: "I also know that the military advisor's words are for the sake of our soldiers and civilians in Xiangyang City. However, these common people living in Xiangyang City are hard to follow for a moment.  Xiangyang City was moved away in time? And Xiangyang City is also a strong city. I expect that it should be enough to block the attack of the Eight Banners' iron hoofs. However, for the sake of fairness, I will let the group of civil and military personnel in the main hall to move together.  Come and discuss this proposal from the master? IfZuo Liangyu accepted the order happily and left.

    Zuo Liangyu¡¯s arrival was indeed worthy of being a famous general of the Ming Dynasty. He was able to block the invading Eight Banners cavalry in Xiangyang City for five days.  But before that, Princess Changping, Master Hanke and others had already withdrawn outside Xiangyang City to wait for Zuo Liangyu to lead his troops to withdraw here?  After two more troops of the Eight Banners Cavalry arrived at the gates of Xiangyang City, Zuo Liangyu put up another tenacious resistance and then withdrew outside Xiangyang City in the dark.  But Zuo Liangyu withdrew from Xiangyang City in time, but ordered the military academies under his command to plant a lot of straw men.

    And these straw men were all given military uniforms and armor from the Ming Dynasty Military Academy.  Bonfires and torches were scattered all over the city, making the Eight Banners cavalry below the city think that the garrison in the city was still standing on the city.  Then they set up a joint camp under the city and just waited for daylight to launch the final attack on Xiangyang City?  After Zuo Liangyu withdrew from Xiangyang City, he joined forces with Princess Changping and others.  Afterwards, the entire army headed straight for Wuchang and Jiujiang.  Following the guidance of Master Hanke, Princess Changping's troops passed through Wuchang and Jiujiang, and then rushed along the Yangtze River to the Huaihe River.  Finally, go around Tianjin City to join the Northeast Army?

    What Princess Changping didn¡¯t expect was that the Eight Banners cavalry chasing after her was really fast enough?  When Princess Changping took her soldiers and horses to Hankou near Wuchang City, she was chased back by Duduo's Eight Banners cavalry.  The two armies immediately launched a desperate fight in Hankou, and the battle lasted less than an hour?  The officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were already unable to support themselves, so they had to resist while being defeated.  At this time, Princess Changping, along with Master Hanke and others, were among the defeated troops and retreated to Jiujiang City together.

    Zuo Liangyu finally had to ask a group of Ming officers and soldiers to stay behind his own troops and help others come to the rear.  But he didn't care about protecting Princess Changping, and just ran all the way to Jiujiang.  Are you thinking that once your troops can reach the territory controlled by the small court of Nanming?  Maybe, no matter what, the other party can tolerate him for a while?  Let your sentry troops take a breather?  Continue to move forward.  But Zuo Liangyu's plan was good, but just as his men and horses rushed to Jiujiang City, the Eight Banners Cavalry was already catching up again behind them.

    But this time, Duduo personally led an Eight Banners cavalry, bypassing Jiujiang City from the left, cutting off the path of Zuo Liangyu, Princess Changping and others.  At the same time, another group of Eight Banners soldiers and horses were behind it, blocking its retreat.  Now Zuo Liangyu and Princess Changping are caught in the middle by the Eight Banners cavalry. They can't escape, but they can't fight. These two Eight Banners soldiers and horses are blocking them in front of them?
