"General Tang Bing?"

As soon as Chunxiang left, Chang Yu glanced at the middle-aged man with a cautious face beside him.

"The last general, Tang Tong, has seen the Overseer"

Tang Tong was surprised in his heart, the rumors were true, he was too young, how could he be so young.

"Chief Tang Bing, please sit down in the hall" Chang Yu stretched out his hand to invite, and Tang Tong hurriedly complied: "Lord Overseer, please."

The two of them sat down in the main and guest halls, and one of them came in to make tea and serve it carefully, Chang Yu waved his hand to let him go, and his eyes looked back and forth on Tang Tong.

Tang Tongqi people have records began in Chongzhen seven years, when it was the Yulin garrison, after several years of hard work finally climbed to the position of the general army, these more than ten years of southern expedition and northern war, and the governor Chen Qiyu fought Zhang Xianzhong, also fought the Qing army, the most famous is one of the eight general soldiers who followed Hong Chengchou to fight the Songjin War, last year Chongzhen adopted Chen Yan's suggestion, withdraw the Miyun general army, the general army of Jizhen Central Association, referred to as the general army of Jizhen Town.

The Battle of Songjin, the Ming army was killed nearly 100 civilians, heavy losses, not to mention Hong Chengchou, Zu Dashou, Zu Dale surrendered, Qiu Minyang was ......killed, that is, the eight general soldiers also lost most of the half, Wang Tingchen, Cao Bianjiao died in battle, Wang Pu was killed for his crime, Bai Guangen surrendered, Ma Ke was withdrawn, and he and Wu Sangui can be used now.

Tang Tong was uncomfortable by Chang Yu, although the eunuch in front of him was not very old, the momentum revealed by his body was generally unbearable, he seemed to be kind, and he was definitely a ruthless character.

"Lord Overseer, the last general received an order the day before yesterday that he was going to go to Shanhaiguan with you to supervise the battle, could it be that there is a situation in the north?" Tang Tong frowned deeply, and brought the topic to the point, he was stationed in Changping recently, and the military situation in the north had not yet been heard at this time.

Chang Yu retracted his gaze and nodded slightly: "The Qing army is going south"

Yes! Tang Tong was agitated, his brows furrowed even deeper, and his face was extremely ugly.

Chang Yu sighed secretly, this product has been working in Songjin and the Qing army for two years, and after a big defeat, there is a shadow, and it seems that he has a fear of Qing cancer.

"Is Mr. Tang afraid?"

The corners of Chang Yu's mouth were raised, as if he was smiling.

"Where does the overseer say this, the clear dog covets the door of our country, harms my people, I am the Ming general to protect the family and defend the country is my own responsibility, even if the horse leather shroud died on the battlefield, I will not hesitate, the overseer said that I underestimate the last general." Tang Tong said with a little annoyance.

Chang Yu waved his hand slightly: "Honestly, Tang Zongbing doesn't have to be more serious" but he was still satisfied in his heart, judging from the current situation, Tang Tong is not bad, although his loyalty is not as good as Zhou Yuji, Huang Degong, and Yong is not as good as Wu Sangui and Gao Jie, but it is not Liu Zeqing, Zuo Liangyu, so arrogant and domineering, on the contrary, very obedient.

Seeing that Tang Tong seemed to be a little angry, Chang Yu hurriedly diverted the topic: "This governor has never dealt with the Qing army, but General Tang is experienced, and he dares to ask how the Qing army's combat strength is.

Tang Tong was slightly silent, frowned, and said: "The Qing army is brave, good at arching and riding horses is not comparable to the ordinary Ming army, its fighting style is fierce and strong, and the field battle is unstoppable" said and sighed slightly: "After the battle of Songjin, only the men and horses of General Wu of Ningyuan can dare to fight directly with it."

Chang Yu nodded silently, and very much agreed with what Tang Tong said: "But the Songjin battlefield is mostly mountains, rivers and beaches, the terrain is bumpy, and it is not suitable for cavalry field battles, and the Ming army mostly defended the city and fought, but ended up in a crushing defeat, it can be seen that the Qing army is not only good at field warfare, but also has a complete set of tactics for siege."

"Artillery" Tang Tong raised his eyebrows: "Since Kong Youde surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the artillery of the Qing army has been improved, both firepower and number are far more than our army, when attacking the city, cover with heavy firepower, strong troops to enter the city, and Songshan, Xingshan and so on are small cities, it is really difficult to resist ......"

Tang made no secret of making excuses for the rout of the Battle of Songjin, but Chang Yu didn't care about this, defeat is defeat, and there are many reasons for failure, which is meaningless at this time.

As for what he said about the Qing army's firepower and even far surpassed the Ming army, Chang Yu really couldn't help but have a toothache, and secretly sighed that God would make people, more than ten years ago, Yuan Chonghuan, a rectum, cut Mao Wenlong regardless of it, causing the Ming army Liaodong Army to be in turmoil, and his subordinates Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming rebelled and occupied Dengzhou City.

However, Dengzhou City is not simple, it is the base for the Ming army to manufacture new artillery and train artillery, with nearly 100 Portuguese and other foreign gunners and craftsmen, as well as a large number of trained artillerymen. In the end, when the counterinsurgency army arrived, Kong Youde, who had a premonition that he could not support it, together with Geng Zhongming, left the rest of the cadres to guard the cover of Dengzhou Shuicheng, and surrendered to the Manchu Qing with more than 3,000 war horses, more than 20 red-coated cannons, more than 300 Western cannons and countless firearms, gold and silver, in exchange for Huang Taiji's 30 miles to meet him......

So after more than ten years of development, the artillery strength of the Qing army is in full swing, while the Ming Dynasty, which is trapped in the quagmire and has collapsed financially, is declining day by day.

Lao Yuan, ten years ago, you impulsively cut Mao Wenlongshuang, but now I have to pay for your impulsiveness, Lao Tzu is bitter!

"Overseer, do you know how many soldiers and horses of the Qing army have come to attack this time?" Tang Tongchang took a long breath and asked, secretly calculated that since the second year of Chongzhen, the Qing army first entered the customs for more than ten years, it has entered the customs five times, whenever there is a shortage of money, food and few people, it will enter the customs in a big way and loot, and even swagger deep into the hinterland, the Ming Dynasty has suffered heavy losses, not only the ordinary people have suffered and even people and wealth have been swept away, even the princes have not been spared, Zhu Youshu, the king of Shandong, and Zhu Yi, the king of Lu, were captured and killed......

It is a pity that every time the Qing army enters the pass, it plunders and even plunders the capital, and the Ming army either flees when it hears the wind, or follows from afar, after all, the border army does not dare to easily resist the fierce army, and the inland soldiers and horses are even more courageous.

However, this was only one of the many shames of the late Ming Dynasty.

Of course, these shames can only be washed away with blood.

"It is reported that there are 100,000 giants," Chang Yu said softly.

Tang Tong couldn't help but exclaim again, his face was extremely gray, and he sighed: "Do you know how many men and horses there are in the Ming army in the north?" ”

Chang Yu shook his head: "I don't know the specifics, please let Mr. Tang know."

"There are about 30,000 soldiers in Ningyuan City, and there are more than 10,000 soldiers in Shanhaiguan, and the total number of generals is only 60,000,000,000," Tang Tong said and sighed heavily.

The combat strength is not as good as the people, the troops are not as good as the people, the morale is not as good as the people, the situation is not as good as the people, how can this battle be fought? The veteran oil son Tang Tong already had the answer in his heart.

"Ning Yuan, Ning Yuan ......" Chang Yu muttered in his mouth, and suddenly smiled: "Chief Tang Bing, do you still remember the Ningyuan Battle in the sixth year of the Apocalypse?" ”

"Could it be that the Overseer is talking about the time between Inspector Yuan and Nurhachi?" Tang Tong was silent for a while.

This battle was called Ningyuan's great victory, and it was the first time that the Ming army defeated the Qing army (called Houjin at that time)

Chang Yu nodded slightly: "At the beginning, Inspector Yuan only had more than 10,000 troops in Ningyuan City, but the Qing army had more than 60,000, but in the end, the Qing army was not defeated and left?" ”

"Overseer" Tang Tong smiled bitterly, he knew that Chang Yu wanted to inspire him: "But at that time, there were only 11 red-clothed cannons in Ningyuan City, which was invincible for the Qing army at that time."

"But you still forgot that at that time, Nurhachi claimed to be the commander of the Eight Banners Army of 130,000, but in fact it was only 60,000," Chang Yu smiled faintly.

Tang Tong was silent, of course he understood what Chang Yu meant, at this moment, the Qing army was also known as a 100,000 army, but in fact...... Maybe it's about the same as the Ming army, if the strength is comparable, the Ming army resists the enemy according to the city, and it is still unknown who will kill the deer, and I heard that this little eunuch has a set of wars, and in Taiyuan he can beat the thief army several times and flee, and he can file the Qing army.

If so? Chang Yu's surface is as calm as a breeze, and his psychology is miserable.

The imperial court has suppressed bandits for more than ten years, and the more they suppress, the more they suppress, but the victory or defeat is five or five, but the thief army is just an amateur. The Ming and Qing dynasties also fought for more than ten years, this time it was a real battle between professional armies, but the Ming Dynasty was defeated again and again, and was even pushed to the hard by people five times into the house and into the room, and left calmly...... In the past ten years, there have been only a handful of wins, and the few times they have won are all special forces of the Ming Dynasty...... Guan Ning Iron Cavalry fought, but unfortunately this special forces only had a little flame left at this time.

In the end, Li Zicheng's amateur player defeated the professional team of Daming, and then was completely blown up by the professional team of Daqing.

At this time, the financial resources and military strength of the Ming Dynasty have long been at the end of the strong crossbow, and they cannot be hard against the Qing army in the middle of the day, and more importantly, because of the rout of the Songjin War, the Ming army is afraid that the Qing cancer has been terminally ill, and the army is tired.

How can we fight this battle in the face of the vigorous and arrogant Qing army? Chang Yu was also asking himself.
