    In the setting sun, the red glow covered the earth. Thousands of horsemen rode across the hills. The spears in the hands of the hussars shone with golden light, and the bright armor shone with red brilliance.  This is a group of cavalry coming down from the sky, galloping on the field, like a whirlwind sweeping across.  Wherever they passed, the Tatars fled in panic, not even daring to face this majestic army.  Unable to run away, the Tatars could only kneel on the ground and pray for surrender.  At this moment, all talk about the powerful Eight Banners army and the invincibility of the Jurchen soldiers became nonsense.  The fierce Tatars once wanted to annex the land of Kyushu, but now they were like a group of humble reptiles, kneeling on the ground and tremblingly asking for surrender.  These people became extremely obedient, fearing to offend the heavenly soldiers and generals, so they chopped them with a knife.  The winged cavalry had no interest in paying attention to them at all. They had only one target, and that was the leader of the Tatars, Prince Regent Dorgon!  Luan Hu rode on the war horse and shouted loudly: "Kneel down and get out of my way!" He took the lead, and the cavalry team was like a sharp sword, charging at the front.  At this time, Dorgon's lips were purple and his face was yellow, lying on the carriage.  Every bump made him frown, and a mouthful of blood surged back and forth in his throat, trying to rush outside.  Dorgon knew that if he spit out this mouthful of blood again, he would really be doomed, so he held on tightly.  "Fan, Mr. Fan!" A faint voice came. Fan Wencheng was indeed a good slave of the Tatars. For such an old man, his ears were particularly sharp.  "Quick, stop the car first." Fan Wencheng flew in front of Dorgon. Just a few hours after his defeat, Dorgon had already lost his human appearance.  A faint black air gathered on his face.  The well-informed Fan Wencheng didn't understand that this man was already at the end of his life. He suppressed his grief, leaned over and asked: "Prince Regent, what are your orders? The servant is here!" Dorgon reluctantly  He rolled his eyelids and struggled to say: "Mr. Fan, don't go to Handan, go to Quzhou instead." When Fan Wencheng heard this, he was immediately frightened: "Master, there are 100,000 or 200,000 troops in Handan. Even if there is no way,  It can also protect safety when we come back. If we go to Quzhou, we will be alone, I'm afraid" "Haha!" Dorgon said with a weak smile: "Handan's army is not a helper, but an enemy.  Mr. Fan, don¡¯t you understand?¡± Fan Wencheng may be old, or may have become dull due to defeat, but his face is blank.  Dorgon said: "If the Mongolian troops in Handan have no food and pay, will they listen to my orders? I'm afraid they will use my head in exchange for the Ming army's favor!" At this point.  Fan Wencheng still doesn¡¯t understand!  The more you understand, the more you will be shocked by An**'s ruthlessness and precision.  They tried their best to lure Fan Keqin and others to surrender.  The surrender of a dignified member of the country to the enemy was an unspeakable blow to the morale of the army.  This idea came from Fan Wencheng, and he thought he had a plan.  But An's attack was even more ruthless. Their target was Feng Andong, the governor of Shandong. Feng Andong had been working and studying for generations. This man had no principles.  It's just grass on the wall, falling with the wind.  No matter who is more powerful.  He leaned over without hesitation.  The Manchus did not have many available people, so they promoted Feng Andong to serve as governor of Shandong.  Shandong is next to Nanzhi.  It is the first line of dealing with security.  Mr. Feng soon noticed An's strength, prosperous trade, numerous merchants, and huge flow of money, which made people jealous and deeply shocked.  Feng Andong is the best at adapting to the situation. He hurriedly contacted An Xin secretly and prepared to donate Shandong.  It was during this battle that Gu Zhenhua determined that Shandong would be his flank and sent Gao Hongtu to personally preside over it.  Gao Hongtu asked the alert Zhao Tian to sneak into Jinan in disguise, meet Feng Andong, and discuss ways to deal with the Tatars.  When the war in Guangping just started, they cooperated internally and externally and took action. In order to go all out, Dorgon evacuated almost all the elite Tatars in Shandong, leaving only some green camps.  On the night of the launch, Zhao Tian took the lead and attacked the warehouse with less than 300 people, killing 500 Tatars in one fell swoop.  As soon as the attack was successful, the situation in Jinan was completely reversed. Feng Andong's soldiers frantically attacked the remaining Tatars, no matter men, women, old or young, no one was spared.  As for the green camp, they also rebelled and joined the ranks of the Tatars.  They were killing in an extremely lively manner, and Zhao Tian¡¯s attention was all focused on the warehouse in front of him.  Jinan gathered most of the wealth stolen by the Tatars from Shandong, as well as 2.2 million shi of grain.  It was the capital that supported Dorgon's war.  Zhao Tian?I was reluctant to burn all the grain, but there were Tatars near Jinan. It would be bad if the Tatars killed them and took them back.  Zhao Tian immediately had a bad idea. He announced to all Shandong people that as long as they could join the ranks of driving away the Tatars, they could be exchanged for food according to their merits.  The Tatars¡¯ brutal expropriation has long caused resentment among the people of Shandong, and the people cannot bear it.  After hearing the news, rebels from various places swarmed in, and the rebels even captured Dongchang Mansion, suddenly cutting off the connection between Shandong and Dorgon.  Shandong changed overnight, Dorgon lost his granary and lost control of the Mongols.  Anyone who has nothing to eat will rebel. The Mongolian tribes and the Manchus are not of the same mind. What's more, when it comes to life and death, how can those cunning guys sacrifice their lives for the Qing Dynasty!  If Dorgon runs over, he might become a bargaining chip in the negotiations between the Mongols and the Ming court.  After understanding the truth, Fan Wencheng was so shocked that he was wet all over. He hurriedly ordered the entire army to change direction and ran towards Qu Zhou.  The chase continues, and Gu Zhenhua has already begun to enjoy the fruits of victory.  Wu Kaijie and Fang Jianming, one on the left and the other on the right, took the compiled battle report. Wu Kaijie said excitedly: "Your Majesty, we killed at least 34,000 Tatars in this battle, and captured more than 80,000 Tatars. Seize the war horses.  110,000 horses, 180,000 shi of grain, and more than 300 large and small artillery pieces." At this point, Wu Kaijie became very excited.  He couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, almost all the elite Tatars have been lost in this battle. We have completely won. Now there is only one guy left, Dorgon. As long as we catch him, we will be truly successful!"  Gu Zhenhua nodded slightly: "Don't worry. Even if Dorgon becomes Monkey King, he can't escape from the palm of his hand. The Manchu Qing Dynasty is completely over!" Even though there were only more than 30,000 dead and injured Tatars, there were more than 8,000 Eight Banners among them.  Elites, and more than 5,000 fire gunners trained by Dorgon, if you include the captives.  The Eight Banners was completely crippled.  Gu Zhenhua smiled and said: "As the saying goes, the task of eradicating evil is over, there are still tens of thousands of Tatars who have fled to various places. Immediately mobilize all Han people, no matter who they are, as long as they can send the Tatar heads. One head will be rewarded fifty taels!" "  I'll make arrangements now!" Wu Kaijie left happily. When it was Fang Jianming's turn, he was not so excited.  "Your Majesty, we certainly won, but we also paid a heavy price. More than 12,000 soldiers died in each unit, including more than 2,200 Old Guards, and almost half were lost. For example, the carriage camp also suffered losses.  More than 30% of the troops were lost. All other departments suffered losses more or less. "This battle is indeed more dangerous than ever before. The progress of the Tatars makes Gu Zhenhua a little stunned, but fortunately the Tatars are always slower than An**.  Half a step forward.  It's no surprise that such a loss occurred.  Gu Zhenhua's expression also became solemn and he said, "Go and send a letter to Yan Yingyuan and ask him to immediately draw up a pension standard and give preferential treatment to all family members. Brothers cannot die in vain." "I understand your humble position!" Fang Jianming also turned around and left.  Gu Zhenhua sat quietly in his seat.  He stared blankly at the roof of the tent with a relaxed smile on his face.  "We won. We finally won! The land of China, the heaven above. I no longer have to carry a pig's tail and become the sick man of East Asia that everyone laughs at!" Gu Zhenhua suddenly felt extraordinarily peaceful. For a period of time since time traveling, he almost  I was so depressed that I couldn't breathe, but now everything has changed, and my heart is filled with sunshine.  Opening the tent curtain, bursts of cheers couldn't help but come from outside.  The pursuers from all walks of life came back one after another, escorting countless Tatar prisoners, one by one on a rope, like grasshoppers, all with dejected poker faces.  Every time a group of prisoners was delivered, everyone laughed and shouted happily.  "We won, we finally won!" "The Tatars are completely finished!" The soldiers laughed, shouted, and danced happily.  Someone brought out the wine jar from the kitchen. The big guys didn't care about military discipline. They took a large porcelain bowl and drank it happily.  "Give me a bowl too!" The soldier raised his head suddenly and almost threw the wine jar to the ground.  "My lord, it's you!" "Hahaha, there is no prince today, only the winner on the battlefield. Brothers, I give you a bowl!" Gu Zhenhua picked up the big bowl and drank it all in one gulp.  "Okay! Your Majesty has a good drinker!" The soldiers all raised their bowls and drank excitedly. There was a young soldier who didn't know how to drink yet, but he still drank a bowl. After drinking, he fell to the ground and fell asleep soundly.  It made everyone laugh.  A bowlAfter a while of drinking, some soldiers got drunk, dancing hometown dances and singing all kinds of tunes, and the joyful sounds echoed between heaven and earth.  More and more soldiers are returning with their trophies, and there are more and more cheerful teams. From the battlefield to Guangping City, they are all cheering soldiers and civilians!  But not everyone could drink it. A few veterans leaned aside, with loneliness in their eyes, and some secretly wiped their tears.  "What are you thinking about? Tell me how about it. Are you looking forward to a celebration banquet?" "Being able to drink a bowl of wine with the prince is better than any celebration banquet. Being in a humble position makes me feel empty." A veteran took advantage of the strength of alcohol.  Said: "We followed the prince from Liaodong and fought all the way here. Now that the Tatars are finished, I'm afraid we will all have to disarm and return to the fields." "Don't you want to?" A trace of confusion flashed on the veteran's face, and then he said with a bitter smile: "  Of course I miss my mother-in-law and children, but I have been fighting for most of my life and my hands are used to holding blunderbuss. How can I carry a hoe? This whole life, I am just a soldier!"  They are soldiers!" Gu Zhenhua laughed loudly: "Brothers, don't worry, I can tell you that there will be countless big battles in the future. Once the Central Plains is stabilized, we will expand our territory and lay a strong foundation for our descendants.  Big country!" When the veterans heard this, they immediately became energetic and asked hurriedly: "Your Majesty, are you telling the truth?" "That's natural. I have never told a lie. Let's do it well and see who can do it.  Take the overseas territories first and become the local emperor." When the veterans heard this, they all became energetic. Suddenly, there was a sound of horse hooves, and the leading knight ran over with a large sack on his back.  "Your Majesty, I have humbled myself to catch you a big fish." Tang Zhanxiong slammed the sack to the ground, and a muffled groan came from inside.  Gu Zhenhua stood up and said with a smile: "Let me see how big the fish is." Tang Zhanxiong untied the rope and took out a large five-flowered rice dumpling.  "My lord, please look, it's this guy!" Gu Zhenhua glanced around and saw an old man in his sixties with a gray beard and bruises on his face, filled with fear and uneasiness.  "Your Majesty, he is a big traitor to Ning Wan. The old boy was finally caught. I humbled myself and ordered him to be chopped into pieces!" "Ah! Don't kill me, don't kill me!" Tang Zhanxiong chuckled: "  You traitor, I heard that you, the old boy, encouraged the Tatars to shave their hair and change their clothes, forcing many people to die. Don¡¯t worry, I will never let you die immediately, and I promise to let you enjoy it well.¡± Ning Wan almost scared me!  He pulled it and cried: "The sinner knows where Dorgon is going, please spare the sinner's life!"
