Chapter 176 Chapter 176, Dorgon Withdrew His Army to the North, Zhu Cihong Returned to the West
In the Taihang Mountains.

Duoduo stared at the small pass temporarily built by the Ming army in front of him, with a fierce light on his face, like a fierce tiger, ready to choose and devour at any time.

"Where's my cannon? Why hasn't it arrived yet!" Duduo roared at the Manchu officials in charge of logistics beside him.

The official was trembling, and hurriedly said: "My lord, the transportation in Taihang Mountain is really inconvenient, please allow me another two days."

Duoduo knocked the official to the ground with a slap, and said coldly: "I only want cannons, and I don't want to hear you trash talking about shirking responsibility. Come on, drag this trash to me and kill him. One that will deliver the cannon in time!"

After Duoduo's actions, everyone present was silent, and they didn't dare to say a word.

After Duduo got angry, he returned to his tent and sulked.

The game between Duduo and the British Duke has lasted for almost a month, and the two sides can be said to be back and forth.

It's not that Duduo didn't think of other ways, such as crossing with surprise soldiers, feint attacking, changing other routes, etc., but all of them were seen through by the British Duke.

So now there is only one way left - attack by force.

But if you attack by force, you have to face the artillery of the Ming army in such a narrow passage, no matter how powerful the soldiers of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties are, it is a dead end.

So Doduo thought of a new method, which was to use artillery to deal with artillery.

It's just that the road in the Taihang Mountains is steep, and the transportation of heavy artillery is quite difficult. As a result, Duoduo has not seen the artillery that he has been dreaming of, and today's outbreak has occurred.

Just as Duoduo entered the tent, his guard captain also entered.

"Your Majesty, an order from Prince Yu Rui!"

Duduo was stunned for a moment, then took the letter from Dorgon from the guard captain. After reading it, his expression changed drastically.

"Withdraw the troops? You want me to withdraw the troops?"

Almost at the same time, the British Duke also received an imperial edict from Beijing.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince won? It's great!" The British Duke looked excited.

In front of the British Duke, many generals of the Ming army also had happy expressions.

The Duke of England looked around at everyone present, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, if the old man's prediction is not bad, Jiannu should be withdrawing soon. I will leave a part of the army to continue to garrison here. After the main force prepares Go north, go to Zhangjiakou to find the main force of Jiannu!"

The British Duke also made up his mind to have a good touch with Dorgon.

This time, we must let these Jiannu know what is called Da Mingwei!
In Jinzhou City, Jierhalang became calm after receiving the information from Shengjing.

"Let's guard Jinzhou until Prince Rui calls back." Jierhalang said to his subordinates.

In this regard, Jierhalang's subordinates have doubts instead: "My lord, isn't that letting Dorgon steal the limelight?"

The expression on Jierharang's face was quite ugly, and he sighed after a long time; "Just grab it, it's better than being robbed in Jinzhou, right?"

Jierhalang has also figured it out, if Jinzhou is lost again, Jierhalang's day will really be over, but if he can kill a wave of Zhu Cihong under the city of Jinzhou, then there is still room for redemption.

Under the guidance of this phalanx, the remnants of the Manchu Qing army led by Jierhalang indeed cheered up again and repelled many attacks by the Ming army.

This was naturally noticed by Li Guozhen, who was in charge of directing the siege.

Li Guozhen was also a little anxious, so he hurriedly went to Zhu Cihong: "Your Highness, should we also withdraw our troops?"

It's not that Li Guozhen couldn't hold his breath, but he was a little worried that if he withdrew his troops too late, he might be taken by the main force of Dorgon of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties.

After all, no one knows when Dorgon's reinforcements will appear.

Zhu Cihong was very calm, and smiled at Li Guozhen: "Uncle Xiangcheng, don't worry, let's stay for another five days."

After doing the math, there are still five days left before the fifteen days required by the system.

Li Guozhen was stunned when he heard the words: "Your Highness, we have been besieging Jinzhou for so long, and Dorgon must have already returned to the division, so we have to guard against it!"

Zhu Cilang yawned and said, "Don't worry, Dorgon will definitely not arrive in five days!"

If you don't believe anything else, can the system still not believe it?

Li Guozhen: "..."

Li Guozhen was really dumbfounded at this time: "Your Highness, after we evacuate, we will have to walk for a few more days to reach Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan. If this is the case, wouldn't it be at least ten days to start?"

Zhu Cihong said loudly: "That's ten days. Uncle Xiangcheng, you don't need to worry too much, everything in this palace is well known."

Li Guozhen left Zhu Cihong's tent with a heavy heart.

After Li Guozhen left, Zhu Cihong's expression also became serious, and he fell into contemplation of the map in front of him.

Judging from the distance on the map, after so many days, the army led by Dorgon has at least left the customs and started to enter the Monan grassland.

So Li Guozhen's worries are indeed justified. After all, I don't know if Dorgon will suddenly send cavalry to outflank and raid or something. Don't forget that there are Eight Mongolian Banners in the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

However, due to the help of the system, Zhu Cihong directly ignored this matter, but began to seriously consider where to fight Dorgon next.

"Gubeikou? Baimaguan? Longmenkou?" Place names came into Zhu Cihong's sight one after another.

After a long time, Zhu Cihong slapped his thigh: "Whatever, just do it!"

Five days later.

Ji Erhalang boarded the city wall and stared at the Ming army camp outside the city with sharp eyes.

"It's been a month... Huh, the time to fight back is coming soon!"

According to the information just received by Jierhalang, Dorgon has sent more than 1 Mongolian cavalry along the Monan prairie to quickly return to aid, and it will take three to five days to reach Jinzhou.

With these more than 1 Mongolian cavalry, Jierhalang believes that this wave of reverse push will definitely cause heavy losses to the Ming army, and even...

"Kill Zhu Cihong!" Thinking of this, Ji Erhalang's face inevitably turned grim.

He was really looking forward to this day.

But at this moment, an exclamation suddenly came from Jierharang's side.

"The Ming army retreated?!"

Jierhalang came back to his senses, and his eyes stretched along the Ming army camp. Sure enough, behind the Ming army camp, a steady stream of troops were slowly retreating south.

Jierhalang: "..."

At this moment, Jilharang's heart collapsed.

My reinforcements are coming soon, you Han people are actually running away at this time?
