please make me king

"What, Liaoyang is lost!" Just as Zhang Shun was enjoying the blessing of Qi people in the Forbidden City, Duoduo, who was stationed in Zhongxiningbao, was also enjoying the "blessing of Qi people".

Bai Guang'en refused to go forward, while Zhang Sanbai attacked behind, attacking back and forth, which only made Duduo want to die and had a good time.

And when he got the news of Liaoyang's fall, he was struck like thunder.

It turns out that Liaoyang was not only one of the three capitals of the Houjin Dynasty, but also the transportation node of the entire Liaodong region in the Ming Dynasty.

Once this place is lost, it means that the Qing army in the three directions of Guangning, Liaonan and Dongjiang has almost lost contact with Shengjing Shenyang.

Liu Zhiyuan's fiefdom in southern Liaoning is in Fuzhou, and he can be self-sufficient in a short period of time, but there is no danger for a while.

But the situation of Duoduo's headquarters and the Daishan Department that attacked Dongjiang Town is not good.

The former took multiple trips, and in order to rescue Quang Ninh as soon as possible, he did not bring enough supplies.

The latter had to pass through the vast and sparsely populated Changbai Mountains, and urgently needed to transport grain and grass through the post road from Liaoyang to Uiju, North Korea.

Now that Liaoyang is lost, it means that the rebels have firmly grasped Houjin's testicles, and they are in danger of being destroyed in an instant.

"No, I have to go back!" Duoduo pondered for a moment, and couldn't help but make up his mind.

"Your Majesty... here...there are wolves and tigers here, how can we escape?" Everyone couldn't help asking after hearing the words.

The reason why the line from Guangning to Haizhou is important is because it is an important traffic route leading to Liaodong.

In the east of Guangning, east of Shenyang, Liaoyang, and south of Niuzhuang Station, in this triangular area, there is a vast swamp - Liaoze.

Now Duduo's [-] troops are trapped in the narrow area between the Liaohe River and the Daliaohe River by the rebels. If they want to return to the east, they have to take the sea route or Liaoze, there is no other way.

"Go to Liaoze!" Duoduo said firmly.

"It's not yet October, how can we do it?" Everyone couldn't help worrying when they heard the words.

It turns out that Liaoze was formed by the flooding of the Liaohe River, which has distinct seasonality.

Under normal circumstances, between May and August, heavy rain falls in the Liaohe River Basin, causing the river to surge and submerge the land on both sides of the Liaohe River.

From January to March, when the weather is dry and the river enters the dry season, the vast area of ​​Liaoze will dry up and freeze, making it possible to pass through.

According to historical records, "Liaoze receives water from the barbarians in the northeast, and the road to the sea is full of mud in spring, summer and autumn, and (captives) often make fortresses in winter and early spring."

Generally speaking, after October, the amount of water in the swamp is greatly reduced, and the ground is frozen again, so that it can be passed through.

But now it's only the end of September, and the ground in Liaoze is not firm enough to pass through.

Hou Jin originally started in Liaodong, and he used this to attack the Ming army before, so he naturally knows it well.

It is precisely because of this that everyone is very worried about Duoduo's plan to take the risk of leaving Liaoze.

Even though it is only a few days away from early winter, with the gap of these few days, the ground is not solid, so it is impossible to march.

"It's okay, this Liaoze is big, but it's not one piece!" Duoduo pondered for a while, and couldn't help but say.

"The most widely distributed place is one in the west of Shenyang and one in the north of Sancha River."

"The ancient roads of the Liao and Jin Dynasties all passed through it, so it should be criticized as a difficult road!"

"This..." Everyone looked at each other when they heard the words, and believed them somewhat.

It turned out that since the old slaves moved their capital to Shenyang, due to the remote location and long roads, they were troubled by the inability to deal with the threats from the Chahan'er tribe and the Ming army in the direction of Guangning in time, so they had been looking for a new road to Guangning.

After many investigations, Houjin found two more feasible paths.

One is to detour to the north of Liaoze, go westward along the Juliu River and circle the northern edge of Liaoze to Guangning.

The other one is to pass through the two largest swamps in Liaoze and reach the area between Shenyang and Liaoyang.

It's late autumn now, and it's only one step away from early winter. If you can choose the abandoned old road, the danger will be reduced by three points.

"Okay, let's do it like this! But... But I'm afraid Guangning will be serious!" Everyone hesitated, and couldn't help but say.

"Should we inform the three Shi Tingzhu brothers and let them go with us?"

"No, if the news gets out, you and I can't get away!" Duoduo coldly refused.

It was only then that everyone realized that they were no longer the Houjin soldier who made the Ming army fearful, but the "Great Qing soldier" who was beaten to the ground by the "Shun thief".

"That's fine, let's go our own way!" Everyone nodded in frustration.

"Don't worry, 'Shun Thief' caught me by surprise this time, but after I pass through Liaoze, everything will be fine!" Seeing the low morale, Doduo couldn't help comforting him.

"I hope!" Everyone responded perfunctorily, which immediately cast a haze on Duoduo's heart.

Husband and courage, the "Great Qing soldiers" who have always been known for their military prowess are now depressed, which is definitely not a good phenomenon.

Regardless of Duoduo's thoughts, everyone's plan has been decided, and the vanguard will be sent out of Xining Fort that night and go deep into Liaoze.

The vanguard figured it out, and quickly sent people to report: "In Liaoze, the road is still muddy, but the foundation is solid, and there is no danger of falling into it!"

"Okay, if that's the case, then cross Liaoze and attack Liaoyang!" Duoduo couldn't help clapping his hands and said with a smile when he heard the words.

That night, Duoduo personally led the main force to cross the side wall and Liaohe River, and went north to Liaoze.

Since the main force of the Duoduo tribe was sandwiched between the Liaohe River and the Daliaohe River, if they wanted to follow the old Liaojin route, they had to march northwestward for more than a hundred miles along the perimeter of the side wall to reach the outskirts of Guangning.

Then turn east again, passing through the gap between the Sancha River and the swamps west of Shenyang.

"Tsk, this way is not easy!" As soon as he stepped into Liaoze, Na Duoduo immediately found that the problem was more troublesome than he imagined.

It turns out that in Liaoze, apart from the large swamps and lakes that make the roads muddy and difficult to walk, there are also reeds and mosquitoes everywhere.

Mosquitoes in eastern Liaodong are different from those in the south. Due to the cold climate, most mosquitoes disappear when the weather is cold, so the harm is not serious.

Duduo, a native of Liaodong, did not know enough about its harm.

However, as soon as he stepped into Liaoze, Duoduo saw the power of these mosquitoes.

It is said that they are mosquitoes, but when you carefully distinguish them, they include mosquitoes, flies, horseflies and bees.

Among them, mosquitoes and gadflies are the most numerous and harmful.

These bugs are so dense that they hurt people's faces, they can't be driven away, they are everywhere.

Mosquitoes bite people, gadflies bite horses, and people are annoying and disturbing for a while.

"Crack, snap!"

"Gray gray gray ~"

For a while, people slapped mosquitoes and horseflies, and horses, mules and horses neighed continuously.

"What's going on, why can't you bear it?" Duoduo stretched out his hand and slapped the unknown bug lying on his face to death, and shouted unhappily.

"Your Majesty, there are too many mosquitoes here. People are capable of humans, but I'm afraid that animals can't bear it!" Left and right couldn't help explaining quickly.

"Really?" Dodo couldn't help squinting his eyes, suspecting that these people were accusing Sang Huai and insulting himself.

"Your Majesty, look!" Seeing Duoduo's reluctance, everyone couldn't help pointing at a war horse.

Na Duoduo took a look through the light of the fire, and saw that the horse was restless, flicking its tail quickly, trying to drive away the approaching mosquitoes and horseflies.

However, there are too many mosquitoes and flies, and it is impossible to guard against them. How can we drive them away.

"Pass down the order, take care of the livestock, don't be surprised!" Duoduo frowned, and ordered involuntarily.

Na Duoduo has been in the army for a long time, so he has a good understanding of the temperament of these animals.

Don't think that these are animals, so they don't understand anything.

In fact, these animals will be as restless as people when they are harassed by mosquitoes and flies.

As the restless emotions continue to accumulate, if one is not careful, he will lose control and crash into the formation.

If one is not careful, causing a large number of war horses to lose control in Liaoze, causing casualties of soldiers, not to mention, if it causes a large number of war horses to fall into the swamp, then it will be a big joke.

It was easy for the crowd to appease them, and it didn't cause a large-scale out-of-control incident of war horses, Duduo felt at ease.

However, due to the mud everywhere in Liaoze, the march was difficult, and it took two or three days to reach the outskirts of Guangning with ease.

Seeing the old way of Liao and Jin in front of him, Na Duoduo breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly ordered: "The old way of Liao and Jin is ahead, everyone is working harder."

As a result, as soon as Duoduo finished speaking, he heard a cannon shot, and suddenly a group of men rushed out from the reeds.

The person in the lead rushed over immediately, and shouted loudly: "My son Duduo, a certain family has been waiting here for a long time, why don't you hurry up and lead them to death!"

When Na Duoduo heard this, his soul was blown away, and he took a closer look, and found that the person who came was none other than Yang Guozhu, the general under the command of the "Shun Bandit".
