On March 20th, Gao Jie's troops defeated Wu Sangui and captured Zhending Mansion.
However, he did not push forward immediately, but waited.
What he was waiting for were the other two Ming armies.
The Zhongzhen Battalion led by Du Yinxi and the Sichuan Army under Wen Anzhi The two armies rested for a while after defeating Azig in the battle of Luoyang, and then rushed to North Zhili to aid Gao Jie.
The total number of the three Ming armies was half a million, and their momentum could be described as huge.
In total, the Qing army only had more than 200,000 troops left, including the troops of Wu Sangui, Kong Youde, and Geng Zhongming.
The Qing army had tried its best, but the Ming army had not shown its full strength.
People such as Huang Degong and Qin Gongming were stationed on standby to prevent any unexpected events.
In other words, the Ming army was confident enough to win the Northern Expedition.
Now the Ming army in North Zhili has captured most of it.
After Du Yinxi and Wen'an arrived with their troops, Gao Jie discussed with them and decided to launch a general attack on the capital from three directions.
Among them, Wen'an led his troops to attack Tang County and Wan County in Baoding Prefecture.
Du Yinxi led his troops to attack Gaoyang and Anzhou.
Gao Jie personally led his troops to attack Baoding Fucheng.
Baoding is the last barrier before Gyeonggi.
As long as Baoding is captured, Gyeonggi can be conquered at will.
Wu Sangui, Kong Youde, and Geng Zhongming, who had retreated to Baoding, were unable to retreat.
Further back is Shuntian Mansion, which is the capital.
Duduo, who had just succeeded as regent, had given a death order and must withstand the Ming army's fierce attack.
It turned out that Wu Sangui had treason.
But he wanted to wait for the price and wait until the battle between the Ming and Qing Dynasties was at its most intense before jumping out.
This way, he could show his importance, and secondly, he could sell himself at a good price.
Who would have thought that the Ming army advanced too fast, Shaanxi, Henan, and Shanxi fell one after another, and North Zhili faced the Ming army's front line.
Wu Sangui was forced to the front line before he could react.
In the past two days, he had also figured out that even if the Ming army accepted his surrender at this time, he would not be given good treatment.
After all, his consciousness was too low, and he would not express his position until the Ming army was about to regain the world.
So Wu Sangui decided to risk his life again.
He wants to bet that the Qing army can win this battle.
Even a crushing victory is okay.
But we must win.
Only if he wins can he have room to bargain with the Ming army.
Only if he wins can he sell himself at a good price.
In order to achieve this goal, Wu Sangui will do his best in this battle In order to supervise the war, Duduo also came to Baoding Mansion to take charge.
According to what he said, there were intact eggs under the overturned nest.
If the Battle of Baoding is defeated, the Ming army will completely win and the Qing Dynasty will die without a burial place.
Of course martial law will be implemented during wartime, and the entire Baoding Prefecture will pursue a policy of fortification and clearing out the wilderness.
The Qing army firmly believed that this move would help force the Ming army to retreat.
After all, the Ming army's supply line is longer, and the Qing army's supply line is right behind them.
However, they were wrong.
Many people spontaneously gave their own food to the Ming army.
Some people even twisted their hair and went to join the Ming army, carrying hoes and dung forks.
These ants, who usually seemed humble and humble, actually burst out with such powerful energy at this moment.
One or two may not have anything to do with each other, but there were thousands of people who went to join the Ming army.
The food they brought may not be much, but it greatly encouraged the Ming army.
This convinced everyone in the Ming army that they were the people the people really wanted to see.

From this moment on, the Qing army had lost.
They are just struggling, fighting like a trapped beast.
Those people who were oppressed by them, those poor creatures who dared to be angry and dare not speak out, now have support, and they have to settle old and new grudges with them.
For the first time, Dodo felt fear.
No matter how powerful a person is, he cannot go against the world.
The Qing government's perverse actions in Beizhili in recent years have lost the support of the people.
At one time, three armies attacked Baoding together.
More than 500,000 Ming troops plus voluntary people came, which seemed to mean that the whole world was conquering the Qing Dynasty.
At this moment, Duduo deeply realized the powerlessness of using a small clan to control a large clan, and began to understand how difficult it was for Dorgon to work in this position.
But even so, the battle must still be fought, and the blood that needs to be shed must still be shed.
The Manchus never admit defeat.
Just when Duduo thought his luck was extremely bad, news came from Shengjing that the North Koreans had surrounded Shengjing.
If this continues, it won't be long before Shengjing, which is short of major generals, will be defeated.
Duduo smiled bitterly.
He finally understood why his brother asked him not to run away.
Even their old nest has been taken away.
There is probably no place for the Manchus in this vast world.
If that's the case, let's have a good fight.
Denglai Navy successfully landed in Tanggu.
Under the leadership of Zheng Chenggong, the Ming army successfully broke through the many barriers set by the Qing army and successfully landed on the beach.
This also announced that this Ming army had completely established a foothold in Tanggu.
The next thing they have to do is advance towards Tianjin Acropolis.
As long as Tianjin is captured, the capital will be a stone's throw away.
They even had the hope of taking the lead in attacking the capital before the other three Ming armies, which would mean a great honor.
Zhu Cixiang was extremely excited as he looked at the reports sent back from the front one after another.
Dorgon died, Azige died, and Shanxi and Henan were all recovered.
Most of the land in Northern Zhili has returned to the embrace of the Ming Dynasty.
Now the Qing army has huddled in Baoding Prefecture and is fighting against the trapped beasts.
What made Zhu Cixiang most happy was that many people from Beizhili spontaneously joined the Ming army and helped the Ming army attack Baoding.
This proves that Ming Dynasty has always won the hearts of the people.
This proves that his efforts were not in vain.
He had been planning this Northern Expedition since he ascended the throne.
He had been planning for three full years, so when the Northern Expedition really started, he couldn't believe his eyes.
These generals performed extremely well.
It’s so good that Zhu Cixiang doesn’t need to design too many specific details.
The mutual trust between the monarch and his ministers created the current situation.
If Zhu Cixiang blindly consolidates power, I am afraid that these civil servants and generals will be restrained.
Zhu Cixiang was very excited now.
Three years of hard work have made us what we are today.
Seeing that he was just one step away from regaining the capital, Zhu Cixiang couldn't just sit in the Forbidden City.
He decided to lead the expedition himself.
At this time, the imperial commander personally went on an expedition, and by the time Zhu Cihong arrived in Beizhili, the battle would probably be almost over.
But it is precisely because of this that he will not encounter much resistance.
Otherwise, just the words of civil servants who dissuade him can drown him.
As the emperor of the Ming Empire, Zhu Cixiang wanted to be the first to step into the capital.

He wanted to let the world know that the Holy Emperor was always thinking about the inheritance of his ancestors, the country, the country, and the life and death of the people.
He wants the people of the world to understand that the Ming Dynasty is the orthodoxy of the world.
He wanted to make up for his father's regrets and restore the prestige of the Ming Dynasty
