Chapter 326: King Qin, Enter the Jingjing!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, ......"
Zhou Yanru and the others rushed back to the imperial city almost in a hurry, and a few timid pants were already soaked.
Who would have thought that the artillery of the Qing army would have such a might, and it would bombard them directly under their noses.
If there is a slight half-point difference pool...... I'm afraid today is the national mourning day of the Ming Dynasty.
In fact, the firing range of the red-coated cannon is generally about two miles, and under normal conditions, it is impossible to directly hit the head of Guangqumen City.
But Kong Youde is really shrewd!
Not only did he choose the best firing angle, but the shells were also a little smaller, and the real lethality was very average, but the power and appearance were full.
"What?"
"Tartars, there are more than 100,000 people in Tartars, and Dolgon and the Eight Banners Banner Masters have arrived?"
In the Dongnuan Pavilion, listening to Zhou Yanru and the others depicting the formation of the Qing army, and had begun to launch an offensive against the Beijing Division, Emperor Chongzhen's face was no longer half bloody.
What the hell is the more you are afraid of something, the more you are here!
If the Qing army is only tens of thousands of people, even if Emperor Chongzhen is afraid, it will not be too much, after all, the city of Jingshi has countless experience in resisting foreign enemies, and Yu Shaobao at that time resisted the wolf-like Yexian with 100,000 remnants of the army.
But at this time...... This is the main force of the Qing army that 'the Jurchens are less than 10,000 and 10,000 are invincible'......
"Your Majesty, summon the elite of the Nine Sides to enter the King of Jingqin, according to the current situation, I'm afraid that the Jingshi won't last long."
Chen Yan is scheming, even if the crotch of his pants is already wet and bloody, he can still stand up at the critical moment and kowtow desperately.
"Yes, your majesty, hurry up and gather reinforcements to King Qin. This matter can't be delayed any longer. ”
"The Emperor's ......"
The ministers also came back to their senses in an instant, and kowtowed one by one like pounding garlic.
Emperor Chongzhen's nails were pinched white, but at this time he also reacted, now that last year's taxes and silver were basically collected, and the treasury still had some surplus grain, and this battle was not unaffordable.
nodded heavily: "Immediately make an order to summon the elite of the Nine Sides to enter the King of Jingqin!" By the way, there is also Haicheng's loyal and righteous Boxu Changqing Department. ”
"Your Majesty ......"
……
Although the imperial court has been dragging its feet and heavy and its efficiency is extremely low in many cases, when it really involves the vital interests of many core interest strata, it still moves quickly.
In the evening, hundreds of elite horsemen raided out of the city from the gates of the capital division, and disappeared into the twilight in the blink of an eye.
The many Qing army rangers around were only symbolically blocked, and they were released.
News soon reached Dolgon's side.
Dorgon was in his tent with Dodor.
After all, Duoduo is in his prime, and his physical condition has been good, especially since he entered the customs, he has not been close to women, after the careful recuperation of several famous doctors, he has been much better in the past few days, but he still can't get out of bed, according to the doctor, he has to recuperate for at least a month.
Hearing this battle report, Duoduo's eyes lit up suddenly: "Brother, have you succeeded?" ”
Dolgon also regained a lot of domineering and self-confidence at this time, and smiled faintly: "Jingshi is the heart of the Ming people, they are very good to come to King Qin, and it is better if they don't come to King Qin!" Fifteen, be patient, I believe that there will be good news soon. ”
Duoduo's eyes rolled, and he quickly understood what Dolgon meant, and his spirit couldn't help but perk: "Brother, you mean ......?"
Dolgon smiled in control: "This battle, no matter what, I am already invincible!" Fifteen, rest assured, Brother is still waiting for you to help me! ”
……
At the beginning of the next morning, before dawn, Xu Changqing was sleeping on Gu Hengbo's bed, when he was suddenly awakened by the harsh emergency news.
Gu Hengbo was also taken aback, although she was a little unhappy, Xu Changqing had only come to her side for several days, and she had actually encountered this kind of thing, but this was a holy decree, she didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly bracked herself up to serve Xu Changqing and dress.
Gu Hengbo has been six or seven months old at this time, and his nostalgia is obvious, but it adds a very charming maternal brilliance, which is even more moving.
Xu Changqing kissed her delicate cheek vigorously and said with a smile: "Sister Mei, you go to sleep, I'll go out and have a look." It shouldn't be a big deal. ”
"Changqing, you must be careful."
Gu Hengbo suddenly hugged Xu Changqing hard, reluctant to give up.
The two of them warmed up for a while, and Xu Changqing dressed up Zhou Zheng and walked out quickly.
But when he got the holy decree and saw it, Xu Changqing's face instantly froze on the spot!
Originally, Xu Changqing had always thought that Dolgon and the main force of the Qing army were going to plan Haicheng or Qingzhou and the like, and they wanted to make a surprise attack, but this was indeed a surprise soldier, but it was far beyond the expectations of Xu Changqing, including everyone in Haicheng!
The real target of this gang of bastards...... It's actually Jingshi!
Not long after, Li Yan and Li Gonggong, who received the news, rushed to the official hall, and when they learned the content of the holy decree, everyone was dumbfounded.
Even Li Yan couldn't help but sigh: "What a poisonous mind, what a vicious mind!" That's a lot of carvings with one stone! ”
Gonggong Li's legs were already weak, and he trembled and said, "Tartar, how can Tartar have a force of more than 100,000 people." They, when they came to fight our Haicheng, there were only fifty or sixty thousand people, right? This, this ......"
After a commotion, Xu Changqing looked at Li Yan and the others: "Strategist, everyone, what do you think?" ”
Li Yan had calmed down a lot, respectfully saluted Xu Changqing, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle, the holy decree has been issued, we have no choice, King Qin is definitely going to go, it's just that whether to take the land route or the sea route, we must plan carefully." ”
Li Hongyun said: "The news was sent last night, the elite of the nine sides want to be the king of Qin, and the nearest one is the Miyun army, but the combat power of the Miyun army is ...... It is estimated that Tang Tong will definitely drag on for some time and will not rush to be cannon fodder. And the main force of the thieves has entered Qinchuan to make trouble, and it is estimated that there is no play on the Qin army's side. Now the only reinforcements that the imperial court can use are Liaodong and Datong. ”
Li Hongyun said, hurriedly looked at Xu Changqing respectfully, and bowed deeply.
Although he said half of what he said, the intention was already very clear, King Qin must go, but he can't be this 'bird'.
This is actually a bit of a trap for the model army!
Xu Changqing couldn't help but nod secretly.
Li Hongyun is the old fritter who came out of the door, he has been polished for a long time, and in the overall situation, he is more outstanding than Li Yan, especially for these routines.
"Marshal, I also think that what the deputy military division said is reasonable, we can't be rash."
"I also agree with the opinion of the deputy military division."
"Handsome ......"
Everyone expressed their opinions.
Xu Changqing nodded slowly, and suddenly smiled: "What everyone said makes sense, but we can't get up early in the morning, but we have a late meeting!" This kind of thing should be done as soon as possible. But~, the Tartar is so powerful, we can only do what we can! ”
……
At noon on the same day, Xu Changqing held a grand oath-taking meeting in Haicheng and sent troops to King Qin!
The main reason is that Xu Changqing has already made full preparations for sending troops these days, and everything has been well prepared, but unfortunately the direction of sending troops has always been Lu Zhongnan before.
Although the holy decree is urgent now, it is not hasty for Xu Changqing and the soldiers of the Model Army.
The troops soon boarded the ships one after another.
In less than a few hours, a huge fleet of more than 300 large and small ships, with a wave of Xu Changqing's big hand, went all the way to the north and sailed in the direction of Dagukou.
On the bow of the boat, Xu Changqing was dressed in a military uniform and wore a golden helmet, allowing the clammy sea breeze to caress his hair and blow across his face.
In this battle, Xu Changqing transferred a total of 7,000 troops including Zhao Zengjin, Xu Xiu, Zhang Hu, Wu Sanfu, Wang Hongyang, Zhang Dagong, and Wang Hongyang, with a strength of more than 10,000 troops, including nearly 6,000 elite auxiliary soldiers, more than 2,000 war horses, and more than 1,000 mules and horses.
That is, Xu Changqing has already planned, Haicheng has been buying a large number of ships in the past two years, including recruiting sailors, otherwise, this kind of large-scale manpower would not be possible at all for the general fleet.
It is no exaggeration to say that at this time, the size of Xu Changqing's fleet is far better than that of Shen Tingyang, the 'Beiyang Leader'.
Of course, the level of elite is definitely not comparable to Shen Tingyang.
The night in Bohai Bay was very quiet, and Xu Changqing's thoughts were further and further away.
To be honest, this time, Xu Changqing was really taken lightly by Dolgon's knife.
Xu Changqing really didn't expect that Dolgon, the turtle son, could have such a plan, it was simply a secret!
At this time, even if he has not really confronted the main force of the Qing army, Xu Changqing has tended to be clear about their strategic goals.
For Da Ming, Jingshi is too crucial.
But at this time, the Jingshi was no longer back then.
In fact, since the Tumubao Incident, Jingshi has been a 'check-in mecca' for powerful nomads.
Especially for the Manchus.
Altan Khan was so good at the beginning, in fact, he only dared to come to play a trick, at that time, even if the Ming Dynasty was defeated, but the million army was not a joke.
However, at this time, under the internal and external troubles, the roots of Daming have long been rotten.
In fact, Xu Changqing understood very well that Dolgon's original intention was never to conquer the Jingshi, because of the battle of Haicheng, even if their losses were not broken, they were almost the same, and they were not very comfortable, and it was impossible to gnaw hard bones again.
The real goal is nothing more than the new force of Xu Changqing and Jiubian, as well as the looted property and population, who want to get out of the customs.
However, with the erosion of Jingshi at this time, Xu Changqing was really afraid that Dolgon was playing, and really found the loophole of Jingshi, so as to 'fake the show and really do it', and really broke Jingshi City!
Therefore, Xu Changqing must enter Beijing as soon as possible, firstly, to make this attitude to Emperor Chongzhen, and secondly, and most importantly, it is necessary to attract the attention of the main force of the Qing army and create some pressure on them.
Otherwise, once something happens, the general trend will be over.
"Brother, you still haven't slept so late?"
At this time, Wu Sanmei Yingying came to Xu Changqing's side, and under the flickering firelight, her beautiful eyes were as bright as stars in the sky.
Xu Changqing smiled and hugged her waist hard.
Wu Sanmei meekly leaned on Xu Changqing's shoulder, looked at the sea and the starry sky with Xu Changqing, and didn't say much.
But in the depths of her eyes, there was obviously something restless, and between Xu Changqing's ten fingers, sweat soon began to ooze from her palms.
Xu Changqing quickly felt the change in Wu Sanmei, and couldn't help but smile and kiss her cheek: "What, are you worried about your second brother?" ”
Wu Sanmei's eyes darkened: "Brother, I, I'm a little scared......"
Xu Changqing couldn't help but hold Wu Sanmei in his arms harder, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid. Everything will be fine, you have to believe in your second brother, and you have to believe in yourself! Third sister, you have to remember that no matter when, my brother will always protect you! ”
"Hmm."
Wu Sanmei nodded heavily and leaned tightly into Xu Changqing's arms.
Feeling that Wu Sanmei's delicate body was trembling slightly, Xu Changqing couldn't help but let out a long breath of turbidity.
Wu Sanmei's usual rudeness, including this desperate attempt to go out with Xu Changqing, isn't it to hide her inner fear and inferiority?
She seems to be high and born with a golden spoon, but she has to take care of the Wu family from afar, the Xu family from afar, and even more so herself.
It's a pity that she is walking on ice in each of these three aspects......
Xu Changqing suddenly laughed: "Third sister, shall I sing you a song?" ”
"Huh?"
Wu Sanmei's beautiful eyes lit up, she nodded obediently, and her little hand grasped Xu Changqing's big hand tighter.
Xu Changqing took a deep breath and sang softly: "After the wind and rain, it doesn't matter what you have, you meet in the water, but you give me so much...... The scenery of life is wandering, and whenever I am lonely, I look back ......"
The waves rolled, the melody fluttered, and the world seemed to gradually freeze.
