Chapter 1584: Plans can't keep up with changes

This is a conspiracy, as long as the General's Mansion assesses Guangxinwei as a "rebel", then Guangxinwei is a "rebel", no.

Since it is a rebel, then the General's Mansion will no longer have to be responsible for Guangxinwei's actions in the future.

And a series of operations such as Guangxinwei's entry into Fengyang South and the capture of Dingyuan will have nothing to do with the establishment of a new dynasty.

As long as the new dynasty does not send reinforcements, this does not have to be responsible.

On the contrary, the Qing army killed Guangxinwei, and the establishment of a new dynasty could not be pursued.

To gamble on the land of Sanfu with a guard and horses, success or failure is limited to this guard, this is the disguised war that Wu Zheng came up with after thinking about it.

It stands to reason that Wu Zheng won this bet at the beginning, and Guangxin Wei entered Fengyang Mansion and disturbed a pool of spring water.

The entanglement of the three forces made this war impossible to fight.

This is good!

As long as it dragged on and dragged on, the Qing court would not be able to settle down to engage in internal affairs and war preparations, but on the contrary, the cloud of war could not be enveloped in the territory of the new dynasty because of the separation of a river.

But then, Wu Zheng miscalculated, people are not as good as heaven!

……。

Wu Zheng's first miscalculation was the direction of Tianchang, and Chen Sheng stayed there with more than 1,000 "bandits".

Because although Tianchang is adjacent to Yangzhou Mansion, it is subordinate to Fengyang Mansion, so after the armistice between the two sides, the Northern Expeditionary Army withdrew, Chen Sheng was unwilling, leaving more than 1,000 people, disguised as "bandits" to continue to exist.

But in fact, this team is receiving supplies from the direction of Yangzhou.

Originally, there was nothing to do with Fengyang City, but when Azig arrived in Fengyang City, his subordinates continued to pour into Fengyang Mansion, and the stations of various departments gradually spread out.

In view of the fact that Qian Qiaogong raided Sizhou at that time and plundered a number of war horses, Azig divided a group of 3,000 elite soldiers and settled in Xuyi.

In this way, the range of activity of the team in the direction of Tianchang was instantly compressed.

Originally, it was fine, anyway, this army retreated into Yangzhou Mansion, and it was safe.

But Azig obviously has the mentality to get rid of it quickly, or he wants to make an example of the monkey and put some pressure on Li Guo.

He ordered the encirclement of this team.

This team was caught off guard by the arrival of a strong enemy, and could only choose to defend the small city of Tianchang.

As a result, the overture of the Battle of Fengyang Mansion, the unexpected first shot, did not break out in Dingyuan, but actually started in Tianchang.

……。

Wu Zheng's second miscalculation was Haizhou City.

I have to say that when Wu Zheng provoked the change in Fengyang Mansion, Wu Zheng's eyes were indeed aimed at Haizhou, which was far away in the northeast corner.

At the same time, Wu Zheng also asked Qian Qiaogong to lead the new practice of "Wind and Thunder Riding" to the north.

But Wu Zheng didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, which made Qian Qiaogong settle in Yunti Pass within a month, and besides, the distance from Yunti Pass to Haizhou was still hundreds of miles.

After a month's time, after letting Qian Qiao obey the order, he still thought of meeting his father Qian Sule and sister Qian Jinxuan first.

That is, no one realizes that Haizhou is in danger.

Of course, it is really not critical at this time, because the battle of Fengyang Mansion has not yet broken out, and even the battle in the direction of Tianchang has not started.

In this case, a small city thousands of miles away, who will see it?

But the generals could not have thought of it, and Wu Zheng, as the commander-in-chief, should have thought of it.

The difference between strategy and tactics is that tactics are to win the battle in front of us, and strategy is to resolve all the changes caused by fighting this battle.

It's like a butterfly flapping its wings on the other side of the sea, which could cause a tsunami somewhere on that side.

It's a pity that Wu Zheng thought of it, but didn't keep an eye on it due to negligence.

A few days later, the sudden outbreak of battle in the direction of Tianchang attracted Wu Zheng's greatest energy, and the direction of Haizhou was even more ignored.

These two miscalculations changed Wu Zheng's entire plan to attack Fengyang Mansion, and many things that would not have happened, or that should have happened in a few years, broke out in advance, thus changing the course of this era.

Perhaps, this is providence.

……。

It is said that the moon is dark and the wind is high, and it is the time to kill.

But the Qing army attacked Tianchang in a big way, but it was a sunny noon.

The Qing army in Sizhou gathered 3,000 men and horses and blatantly sent troops.

It is divided into two roads, one of which is brazenly approaching Tianchang, and the other road turns east through the north of Baita Town, forming a two-sided attack.

This is in line with Azig's temperament, he is used to fighting with the wind, and he has always been open and close to the enemy.

Just like when the rebellion was put down in Mobei, Azig was exhausted at every turn, although the Mongolian rebel cavalry fled, but the Azig army was also in vain, chasing and fighting all over the world, as a result, in a year, more than 10,000 cavalry were stunned and did not destroy less than 5,000 rebel cavalry, the Qing court had to order Shen Zhiyuan's new army to reinforce, and finally Shen Zhiyuan waited for work, ambushed the main force of the rebel cavalry behind a sand dune, and the battle was successful.

For Azig, it is a master of art who is bold, and Fengyang Mansion is now full of troops, and he is still afraid of you with thousands of bandits?

At the same time, Azig also wanted to use this to boast of his martial arts and make an example of Li Guo in Baodi City.

Of course, the most important thing is that Azig judged that the new dynasty would not send troops to intervene.

Also, now is the time when the forces of all parties in Fengyang Mansion are complicated, and who is in the way of exterminating a group of bandits?

Because they were "bandits", the scouts of the Tianchang garrison could not go too far, so they did not realize that something was wrong until the Qing army approached thirty miles, so the garrison had only two choices, one was to retreat eastward into the territory of Yangzhou Prefecture, and the other was to hold the city and repel the invading enemy.

However, the three thousand enemies were divided into two routes, and the cavalry came quickly, and the scouts of the Tianchang garrison were the first to detect only a small number of cavalry, so this caused a serious miscalculation of the garrison, believing that it could repel the invading enemy by relying on the already reinforced defenses.

The garrison shrank into the city, so that no scouts could detect another line of enemy troops.

And just like that, a pitched battle that shouldn't have happened happened.

Azig fought this battle, it was decided temporarily, this was not in the field of vision of the main forces of Fengyang Mansion, the Qing army went south, and there was a war for many years, which state and which prefecture, there were no bandits entrenched in the mountains and forests?

Or dozens, or hundreds, or thousands, everywhere, not surprising.

Therefore, apart from the two warring parties, almost no other forces predicted that this battle would occur, and even Dingyuan Li Guo, who was not too far away, did not get the information until noon the next day.

And this battle, which was inconspicuous compared to the entire situation, almost changed the entire battle situation in Fengyang Mansion, and even affected the ensuing Northern Expedition.

……。

Haizhou is an ancient city, which was built in the period of Emperor Xiao Yan of Liang Wu of the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

Because of the unique topography, it is a coastal pass.

It is bordered by mountains to the south and the sea to the north, so there are only two gates to the east and west.

During the Tang and Song dynasties, there were repairs, expansions, and the drum tower was added near the west gate.

During the Song Shaoxing period, the righteous army resisted Jin and defended the city, built the city wall of Haizhou, repaired the moat, and incorporated the White Tiger Mountain into the city.

In the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, the king of Wei was garrisoned, and the city was repaired in the west city, and the city wall was partially surrounded by bricks.
