Chapter 810: Panic in the Qing Court
Nanjing's New Year is spent in a festive atmosphere, while Shengjing's New Year is a bleak north wind.
Since the Ming Dynasty issued a mobilization order to attack the Qing Dynasty in September last year, the Qing Dynasty has been in a panic environment.
In recent years, the Ming army attacked Taiwan, collected the Hetao, destroyed the Yarkand Khanate, and even the Mongol tribes of Moxi with an iron plate were all attached to the Ming Dynasty, these actions were too fast!
The Qing court thought that they could survive for more than ten years, but they didn't expect the Ming army to come so quickly!
In order to resist the attack of the Ming army, Hong Chengchou ordered the construction of a large number of fortifications from Tieshan to Xuanzhou and Pyongyang to resist the Ming army's attack by land.
At the same time, he also ordered the repair of forts and fortifications in Pusan to prevent the Ming army from landing across the sea.
In the two wars of the Wanli Dynasty, Toyotomi Hideyoshi led more than 100,000 troops from Kyushu Island to cross the sea and land in Busan, and in only 19 days, he broke through the Korean king Jinghancheng, captured Pyongyang in two months, and almost completely took the Korean Peninsula.
When the Ming army attacked the Japanese island of Kyushu without warning, Hong Chengchou had already seen that Emperor Tianwu was preparing to advance by land and sea and landed from Busan!
In the Ideological and Political Palace, Hong Chengchou was very uneasy, pacing back and forth in the hall, and none of the ministers in the hall spoke, all of them hung their heads and didn't know what they were thinking.
At the head of the main hall, the Qing Emperor Fu Lin dragged the pig's tail behind his head, his face was full of sorrow and nervousness, and he didn't say a word.
He really couldn't figure it out, he didn't make any mistakes, why did Khan Amazhu Cihong call quietly?
I heard that this time Emperor Chongzhen is here in person, this is according to the generation, if I meet him, I can't call him Grandpa Khan?
Although the Ming fathers did not recognize their status as sons and emperors, the imperial father regent strongly adhered to this relationship, perhaps only in this way could Emperor Khan Ama Tianwu be a little more merciful to the Qing Dynasty.
However, Fu Lin once suspected that this was done by his godfather Hong Chengchou in order to improve his status, after all, only in this way can the status of Hong Lao Thief be equal to that of Emperor Tianwu......
The fifteen-year-old Fu Lin has his own thoughts, he doesn't want to live so badly, he wants to rebel!
However, before going to the court, my mother, Empress Dowager Zhuang, continued to persuade and said: "Fulin, as long as you can keep the Qing Dynasty, what if you are a grandson?" ”
"I heard that Emperor Daming likes his grandson very much, as long as he is in a happy mood, everything is easy to say!"
Fu Lin didn't speak, so he could only go up to the court angrily to see what the godfather Hong old thief said.
However, looking at the current situation, Hong Lao Thief seems to be very unhappy, he has just scolded the people in the court for a long time, because of the distribution of troops.
Whether it is the Manchurian Eight Banners, the Han Army Flag, or even the North Korean Eight Banners, they are unwilling to fire the first shot of the new year at the front.
The Qing Dynasty has not been idle at all in recent years, busy with shipbuilding and infighting.
The Manchus fought the Han people, the Han people fought the Manchus, the Japanese fought the Koreans, the Koreans fought the Manchus, and finally evolved into the Han and Koreans uniting to fight the Manchus and the Japanese.
In the face of this Ming army's large-scale attack on the Qing Dynasty, as if it had nothing to do with them, they were not in a hurry at all.
Gang Lin, a Manchurian bachelor, even said: "It seems that it is not possible to be a minister, recognize your father, and cut the land. ”
Fu Lin knew that this old man was about to give up treatment, and he could even say such a thing!
What about the backbone of his old bones?
After scolding for a long time, Hong Chengchou couldn't help but be silent, what's the use of scolding? The same will not solve the problem!
If a man dies, no one can stop him!
"Niu Jinxing, tell me, how should I deal with it?"
Hong Chengchou pointed at Niu Venus, because only this guy put on a posture like a master of the world, and he must have some ideas.
Niu Jinxing came out in response and put on a shelf, and the old god was saying: "Back to the emperor's father, regent, the Ming army's attack on my Qing Dynasty is already a matter of lice on the bald head, according to the style of the Ming Dynasty in the past, presumably the Ming army will inevitably attack in a big way." ”
Hong Chengchou was very dissatisfied when he heard Niu Jinxing's words, and said with a glare: "Don't talk nonsense, just say your suggestion." ”
Niu Jinxing glanced up at Hong Chengchou, put away the shelf, and said: "The minister thinks that if the Ming army is allowed to cross the Yalu River and drive straight in, my Qing Dynasty will be over!"
On the occasion of this survival, I also ask all the princes and flag owners to take the overall situation first, share the same hatred and hatred, unite with the outside world, and avoid the current difficulties! ”
Hearing this, Hong Chengchou's face improved, and this guy finally got down to business.
The Qing Dynasty is going to die, Hong Chengchou is not surprised at all, he has a deep understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Ming army, and the Ming Dynasty will destroy the Qing Dynasty sooner or later.
Therefore, a few years ago, Hong Chengchou began to conduct many nautical experiments, and with the opening of the route to overseas, he ordered the transfer of property overseas.
The two Tartars of the Han Army Banner are okay to say, isn't it normal to run away if you can't beat it? They followed Hong Chengchou to load and pack all the things that could be transferred at home and transport them away in batches.
The masters of the Eight Banners of Manchuria don't think so, these Eight Banners nobles are extremely unaccustomed to the life of blowing the sea breeze, and they don't want to go at all, so they want to guard the one-third of an acre under their feet.
Not only that, but they also bought the land assets that were sold off by the Han army's banner generals.
For this kind of cerebral palsy behavior, Hong Chengchou didn't want to say much, he just wanted to arrange a few cannon fodder to come out to block it and buy time for himself to cross east.
Having said that, which banner owner is willing to lead his troops to the top?
The uncle regent Zierharang, the lord of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, and the leaders of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, such as Kubilong, Feiyangguo, Ahsan, Tong Tulai and others, were all silent and had no intention of going to war.
In the Battle of Guanjin, the elite of the Eight Banners of Manchuria was lost, so that the old thief Hong took advantage of the loophole and rode on the head of the banner man.
Now everyone has learned well, and they are worried that after this war, the power of the Qing Dynasty will be reshuffled again, and no one wants to send troops.
Niu Jinxing continued: "The only advantage of my Qing Dynasty is to defend according to the danger, the terrain of Tieshan and Xuanzhou is complex, and the forest is even more dangerous, which is the natural barrier of my Qing country. ”
"The minister suggested that each banner should send two Jiala's men and horses, and the troops should be divided into two routes, one to defend Tieshan and Xuanzhou, and the other to Busan to garrison ......."
"We can't get out!"
Before Niu Jinxing's words were finished, Ah Shan, the owner of the Yellow Banner of the Eight Banners, jumped out and shouted: "We have a total of two Jiala troops, all of whom are pulled out to die?" ”
Other banner owners of the Eight Banners shouted: "Our Banner only has two Jiala troops, how can we fight?" ”
There are more than 20,000 people in the Eight Banners of Manchuria rebuilt in the Tatar Qing Dynasty, and there are only 3,000 people in one banner on average, exactly two Jiala.
There are more than 80,000 people in the Han army banner, an average of 10,000 people in one banner, at least six Jiala, and the troops sent out of two Jiala, even if the whole army is wiped out, the loss is not big, the Han people surnamed Niu are really insidious and vicious, and they want us to become extinct!
The lords of the Eight Banners have already designated Niu Jinxing as the culprit of the destruction of the Qing Dynasty, and the eyes that look at him are full of murderous intentions!
"Why, your Manchurian life is fate, but the life of our Han people is not fate? One to one has you been wronged? ”
The generals with the Han army flag were not convinced and took the initiative to line with them.
The two sides quarreled for a long time, and finally the regent Hong Chengchou made a final decision: "Each of the eight banners of the Manchurian Banner has a force of Jiala, and each of the eight banners of the Han Dynasty has two flags, and the Korean flag and the Dongying flag are all dispatched!" ”
Now the banner owners of the eight banners are comfortable, and the banner owners of the Han army flag can still accept it, after all, there are nearly 70,000 cannon fodder in Japan and North Korea!
At present, there are 170,000 troops in the whole country, including 20,000 in the Manchurian Eight Banners, 80,000 in the Han Eight Banners, 40,000 in the Korean Banners, and 30,000 in the Dongying Banners.
Most of the men and horses of Yingqi in the Middle East were Azig's old subordinates, and after Azig's defeat in the Battle of Mountains and Rivers, his eldest son Hedu inherited his title and soldiers.
After Hedu inherited the title of Prince Ying, in order to avoid the edge of the Ming army, he took the initiative to give up the Kyushu nest that Azig had operated for many years, returned to the Qing Dynasty with his men and horses, and worshiped under the door of his uncle's regent Zilharang.
Rao is Hedu and Jin are dissatisfied, and there is no way, in the Great Qing Kingdom, the status of the Korean flag and the Dongying flag is low, and the equipment is the worst, so they can only be manipulated by others.
In order to avoid the prevarication of the flags without fighting, Hong Chengchou disrupted the four banners of Han, Manchu, Korea, and Japan, and assigned the northern and southern borders to supervise each other.
He knew very well that once this battle began, it would be a decisive battle, and it would be best to force the Ming army back, if not, he could only run away......
