Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

Because Yinti regards Yinhu as his biggest potential opponent, he deliberately violated Kangxi's original order and placed Yinti on the farthest line of defense against Xia from the southwest to the northeast of Zhangde-Daiming-Dongchang-Jinan. The southernmost city of Zhangde Prefecture, as a result, Yinhu only learned of the sudden change in the battle situation in the early hours of the [-]th.At this time, the Dongchang Qing army had already crossed the canal in Linqing, and the Qing army in Daming and Jinan had also fled one after another, leaving only the Zhangde Qing army still standing in front of the Xia army.

Of course Yinti hated his teeth when he heard the bad news for the first time, but he couldn't blame others, not to mention that Yinti had already sent someone to inform him, so what if he didn't inform him, could Yinhu still have a chance to rush in front of Yinti To yell?

The answer is of course no. Not only can Yinti not blame Yinti for escaping first in disregard of his compatriots’ affection, but also thank him for not leaving Zhangde alone as a bait to attract Xia Jun. Zhen and Yinti are doing well. After all, when they received Yinti's order, they immediately dispatched a horse to notify them, but it was a little late.

But precisely because it was half a day late, Yinhu is now in an extremely embarrassing state.Run, Xia Jun who was in front of him probably already knew that the battle situation had turned. If he didn't run, once Xia Jun surrounded him from all directions, it would be a dead end.what to do?Yinhu, who was at a loss, could only immediately notify Yinxiang in the camp outside the city, asking him to come back for an idea.

Yinxiang's camp is in Shilipu outside Anyang City. From this point of view, the configuration of Zhangde Camp is different from other places --- the actions of Dongchang Camp can be determined by the prince Yinti. ;In Jinan City, Yin Zhi can use his elder brother's status to suppress and persuade the officials of the Eastern Province; even if the big name Daying has two elder brothers to discuss and handle affairs together, but they all stay in the same city, it is convenient to discuss things , The artillery forts, camps and forts outside the city, if they are lost, they will be lost; only the two elder brothers who dislike each other on Zhangde's side are in charge of one place, and they have to discuss how to be ugly before they can act together.

Of course, Yinhu can also throw away the tail of the gecko on the spot from Yinxiang's troops, but the Zhangde camp has only 7 people, more than half of them are in Shilipu. Yinhu really didn't have the confidence to flee all the way back to the capital or Liaodong.

In the midst of wild thoughts, Yinxiang who heard the news rushed in angrily: "What's going on?"

"The boss ran away, and the fourth and the fourteenth also ran away early in the morning." Yinhu tried to look calm, but the slightly fluctuating tone revealed his inner panic. "It is estimated that the third child will not stick to Jinan, and now we are left alone in Zhangde, what should we do? Myna, I will listen to you."

"What should I do? Cold salad!" Yin Xiang burst into a foul language. "They're all alone, how can tmd escape?"

Yinhu let out a long sigh: "If you don't run away, you can only be loyal and filial to the Qing Dynasty and Emperor Ama."

Yinxiang squinted his eyes and thought for a long time, then looked up at Yinhu: "Brother, do the people below know?"

"No." Yinhu replied. "The courier was brought here directly, and no one knows about it except the one in my yamen."

"Feng Ya, no one can go out alone." Yinxiang suggested this, Yinhu took it for granted, and after some arrangements, Yinxiang responded to Yinhu's probing words just now in a serious manner. "Brother, there are only two ways to go now. The first is to withdraw, and the second is to stay. Needless to say, if you stay, you must be a loyal minister. If you fight every soldier, you will definitely not surrender. As for running away." Yinxiang paused for a moment, wishing Yinhu could pinch his neck to make him speak out. "One is to be quick, decide to leave, and leave immediately; the second is not to bring too many people, at most a few guards and Darrow and his deputy commanders, don't notify anyone else, let them fend for themselves But." Yinxiang suddenly came to a turning point. "However, if you and I run away, this army is definitely finished, and it may not be able to drag Xia Jun who is in front of him for a few days. If Xia Jun is freed up to pursue with confidence, the boss and fourth brother may not be able to successfully arrest him. Let’s save the last bit of family property from the Qing Dynasty and bring it out of customs.”

The right to choose was returned to Yinhu's hands. Is it a chance to sacrifice oneself for others to preserve the Qing government's final return, or is it to harm others and not benefit oneself and just live alone? This difficult choice caused waves of turmoil in Yinhu's mind. stormy sea.

After half a stick of incense in the silence, Yinhu asked dryly: "I'm afraid that Xia Jun not only has a large army in front of Zhangde?"

Although the answer was irrelevant to the question, Yinhu's choice was made clear by these words, and Yinxiang responded with a hysterical laugh: "Okay, great, it's a strange thing that the Qing Dynasty did not perish."

Yinxiang immediately reached out to stop Yinhu's defense: "Brother, there is no need to say anything, everyone has his own ambitions, I will not force you, not to mention that if you can escape, you can continue to fight against the sea against the Qing Dynasty. "

Seeing that Yinxiang had said everything he wanted to say, Yinhu persuaded with some embarrassment: "Old Thirteen, don't be brave"

Yinxiang still kept a weird smile on his face, but he said in his mouth: "Brother, you don't need to say any more, I understand, but there are always people who have to sacrifice, so let me be the filial son and loyal minister."

Speaking of this, Yinxiang urged: "Don't say any more, it's not too late. Now I will accompany myna to inspect the Shilipu camp. Myna, let your people bring more food, water and horses. We will part ways when we leave the city." .”

Yinhu was in a hurry to give orders, and soon the food and water for the relevant people and horses were ready.

So Yinxiang and Yinhu went out of Anyang South Gate together, only three miles out of the city, Yinhu turned around and headed for Taihang Mountain. He wanted to escape into Taihang first, and then go north along the mountain road to avoid the possible pursuit of the Xia army. Manhunt.

"Brother, let's just say goodbye." On the horseback, Yinxiang, who was full of tears, cupped his hands at Yinhu's back. This is really a farewell. When it's over, everything in the past will just disappear. "Go," Yin Xiang, who wiped away his tears, ordered to the guard behind him. "Go to the Ten Mile Pu camp!"

Back at the Shilipu camp, Yinhu immediately ordered to the unaware Manchu and Han generals: "The military situation has changed, each department only brings food, horses, weapons and gunpowder, and burns all the rest, let's go back to Anyang "

Immediately, the Shilipu camp began to operate like a clockwork machine. Under the supervision of Yinxiang, teams of Qing troops quickly withdrew to Zhangdefu City. Withdrew into Anyang.

"Dog Tartar, why are you running so fast like a rabbit?" Looking at the black smoke rising from the Qing army camp in Shilipu in the distance, Chen You, the commander of the First Division of the Huben Army, who was rushing to intercept him, broke his hand angrily. Whip, and ordered in a somewhat exasperated manner. "Catch up, we must not let Jianlu escape just like that."

Chen You was annoyed that he had lost a big fish, and the outpost came to report: "My lord, the Qing army has withdrawn into Anyang City."

"What?" Chen You's eyes lit up. "Good guy, if there is a way to heaven, you don't go, and there is no way to hell, come and vote! Come, immediately inform the governor of the capital. The Qing army has escaped into Anyang, intending to hold the city and defend it."

Watching Yuanyuan arrive and Xia Jun who was busy building a camp under the city, Yin Xiang, who was standing on the top of the city watching everything, smiled coldly: "Anyang is the ancient capital of Yin, and the city wall is solid. I want to see it. How many lives are you going to use to fill it up?"

After all, Yinxiang ordered: "Order Zhangde Mansion and Anyang County to immediately cooperate with Guide and Weihui towns to organize the males in the city into an army as a supplementary army, and the rest of the elderly, weak, women and children staying is also a waste of food. Drive them all out of the city."

Then Yinxiang continued to order: "Immediately send someone to Shunde Mansion to inform Hebei Governor Yide, and ask him to rush to transport [-] Dan of military rations to Anyang before the [-]th. Lord Keatu also asked him to transport [-] shi to Zhangde within three days, and told the two adults that Ben Beizi only needs food, and he doesn't care about other things."

The guards in charge had just stepped back, Yinxiang said again: "Starting today, the grain platform must receive the warrant of Ben Beizi before it is allowed to allocate grain and grass to each battalion. In addition, battalion officials and below are not allowed to set up small stoves privately. Once discovered, they will be killed!"

From Yinxiang's series of orders, the generals felt great unease. Immediately, Daluo, the left wing commander of the inner firearms battalion who is close to Yinhu, and the deputy commander of the Manchuria of Xianghuang Banner, questioned: "Brother Thirteen , what's going on? Where's the eighth elder brother?"

"Eighth elder brother has been ordered to return to Beijing." Yinxiang panicked calmly. "Why, if the starling is not here, can't Ben Beizi be the master?" Yinxiang looked at Da Luo with cold eyes, and snorted coldly. "Still, the decision of Ben Beizi requires the nod of your slave."

Daluo was stunned, so he could only knelt down and kowtowed to plead guilty: "The slave is stupid, please forgive me, Brother Thirteen"

Even the highest-ranking Daluo was subdued, and none of the Manchu and Han generals present dared to disobey Yinxiang's order, so they had to act according to his will.Just as the unknowing Qing army in Anyang city was being forced to fly by Yinxiang, Xia Yu, the commander of the Xia army, was also observing the Anyang city defense at close range.

"Zhangdefu City is a famous fortified city, and the Qing army has all entered the city. It is difficult to use 7 people to fight 7 people."

"Then surround and not fight." Xia Yu responded to Sima's words in this way. "All the armies in the east have already pursued the fleeing Qing army one after another. The enemy in Anyang has no reinforcements at all. Once the army completes the pursuit, they will return to the division." Xia Yuyi pointed to Defu City. "Yinhu and Yinxiang should know that they have nowhere to go, so they resisted stubbornly."

"It's just that our army is [-], and the enemy's army is [-]. If we siege the city, it may not be enough."

"Then hurry up and report to Shengjia, and ask His Majesty to send troops from a certain wealthy road." Xia Yu made a decision. "The siege will cut off the grain. Come and tell Chen You that Shunde must be captured immediately, and no grain of grain will flow into Anyang." Later, Xia Yu added. "Order the divisions to dig trenches around the city as soon as the camp is built, and then send someone to find a way to tell the Qing army that our army has captured Beijing and captured Kangxi alive..."
