Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 319 Chapter 319, Li Guozhen was surprised and happy, Zhu Cihong returned to the capital
Although he had already made some psychological preparations, Duoduo was somewhat taken aback when he heard Dorgon's order to withdraw troops.

Out of caution, Duoduo asked: "Brother Wang, do you really want to withdraw the troops?"

Dorgon nodded slightly: "Heshuote has already perished, why are you still here if you don't withdraw your troops? If you continue to fight, it will only cause more losses to the Qing Dynasty."

Duoduo was obviously unwilling to reconcile: "It can be delayed for a few days, so that Zhenghongqi and Jierhalang's soldiers and horses can die a little more."

Dorgon shook his head and said decisively: "No, you can weaken it a little. If you go too far, I will become the target of public criticism. Withdraw your troops!"

Dodo left very unwillingly.

On this day, the Qing army ended its attack on Shanhaiguan half an hour earlier, but this short half hour did not attract much attention from the Ming army in the pass.

The next morning, Li Guozhen, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan of the Ming Army, just got up and suddenly felt something strange.

After pondering for a few seconds, Li Guozhen came back to his senses: "Where is the sound of Jiannu's horn?"

These days, Li Guozhen's "alarm clock" is the daily wake-up call in the Manchu Qing military camp.

Li Guozhen didn't hear it today, which made him not quite used to it all at once.

Before Li Guozhen could react, there was a sudden commotion outside.

Li Guozhen hurried out and found shouts coming from the city wall.

Li Guozhen was wondering, when he suddenly saw a general of the Ming army walking quickly, his face was full of surprises.

Li Dingguo subconsciously asked: "What's going on?"

The general said happily to Li Dingguo: "Uncle Xiangcheng, the slave-building army has retreated!"

"What?" Li Dingguo was surprised and delighted: "Really? I'll go and see."

A few minutes later, Li Dingguo, who was standing on the city wall, looked at the Qing army retreating from the camp in the distance. The joy in his heart was beyond words, and he could not help but let out a long roar.

"Great!"

These days, the fierce offensive of the Qing army really made Li Dingguo quite uncomfortable.

Regardless of the large number of troops in Ming Dynasty, but because Shaanxi, Shanxi, Jiangnan and other places need to divide troops to garrison, and enough forces must be left to defend the capital, the number of soldiers and horses handed over to Li Guozhen is only 5.

Taking these 5 people to the west may be able to flatten the Heshuote Khanate, but it is really stressful to use it to deal with the Manchus in Liaodong.

Fortunately, everything is over!
While Li Guozhen was overjoyed, he couldn't help being a little puzzled: "It's so strange, how could this Jiannu retreat when he was doing well?"

The Ming generals next to them also had question marks on their faces: "Yes, yes, Jiannu's offensive was still very fierce yesterday." "I can't see the reason for the retreat at all. Could it be that something happened inside Jiannu?" "It's also possible , that little emperor Jiannu might suddenly die suddenly, haha!"

Just as everyone was discussing in full swing, a messenger galloped over.

"Uncle Xiangcheng, a letter from the capital!"

Li Guozhen's heart moved slightly, and he had a feeling that maybe the question just now had an answer.

After a while, Li Guozhen, who put down the letter, heaved a sigh of relief: "I see."

Looking at the many curious subordinates in front of him, Li Guozhen smiled and said: "It is His Royal Highness who has destroyed the Heshuot Khanate in Uzang. The reason is also to distract Daming and help the Heshuote Khanate reduce the pressure."

"Now that the Heshuote Khanate has been destroyed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, there is no need for Jiannu to continue fighting Daming at Shanhaiguan. Withdrawing is their only option."

After listening to Li Guozhen's words, the Ming generals present suddenly realized.

"It turned out to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Unexpectedly, such a big Heshuote Khanate was wiped out by His Royal Highness in just a few months?"

"Yeah, at the beginning I thought it would take at least two or three years."

"His Royal Highness is indeed worthy of being the reincarnation of the Great Ming Chengzu. His martial arts are so powerful that no one in the world can compare!"

"Let's not talk about the current world, even if you look at the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, it is one of the best!"

Amidst the discussions among the generals, Li Guozhen raised his head and subconsciously looked to the southwest.

At this time, Li Guozhen was not only happy for Daming and Zhu Cihong, but also a little depressed.

If he could grab the post of Lieutenant General Zhu Cihong from the British government at that time, wouldn't this wave of credit be very stable?
This is all about glory and wealth.

Li Guozhen took a deep breath, and secretly made up his mind: "Next time, I must not let this old bastard, British Duke, take away my position as Prince and Deputy General!"

At this point, the war between the west and the north of Ming Dynasty was completely over.

Zhu Cihong returned to the Central Plains with more troops than when he set off.

This time when Zhu Cihong returned, under the pretext of conquering the Manchus, he directly brought back most of the surrendered Heshuote cavalry.

In the city of Lhasa, Zhu Cihong left behind [-] Musketeers.

In various parts of Qinghai-Tibet, cavalry from the Xining Guards are in charge of guarding.

The Xining Guard tribes are now soaring into the sky. Originally, their territory was only a small area in eastern Qinghai, but now they have become the guardians of the entire Qinghai Tibet. This proves the importance of having the right thigh.

In addition, the total number of troops following Zhu Cihong's return reached nearly 5, of which more than 4 were the original Heshuo special cavalry.

Many people actually have doubts about this, and the first one is Zhu Cihong's deputy, British Duke.

"Your Highness, bring these guys back to Daming, how much food and grass will it take to feed them this year."

Zhu Cihong couldn't help laughing when he heard that.

"Raising them for one year may exchange Tibet for ten years of peace. Does the British Duke think it's not worth it?"

So, the British Duke didn't say anything more.

Having experienced so much, the Duke of England gradually has a feeling that His Royal Highness is becoming more and more confident and assertive.

This is growth.

Wouldn't it be a good thing to see such a wise gentleman grow up?

After traveling for nearly two months, Zhu Cihong finally returned to Beijing one day in late autumn.

The autumn leaves fell, and the wheels of Zhu Cihong's carriage ran over. He looked up at the Beijing city in front of him.

It has been more than 300 years since the capital of the Yuan Dynasty was established in this northern city. After the ups and downs, it is still so majestic and majestic.

Zhu Cihong smiled.

"Finally home."

At this moment, the young Crown Prince was relieved.

He can't wait to meet the most important family members!
Almost at the same time as Zhu Cihong smiled, Emperor Chongzhen in the palace also stood up, and said a word to Wang Chengen with a smile.

"Show the palace gates, I want to personally welcome my good boy back in triumph!"
