Chapter 516: The place where the Ming military flag is planted is the Ming Dynasty
Zheng Chenggong is certainly no stranger to the three words of Dongjiang Town.
In fact, he highly admired Mao Wenlong, who was the first to open Dongjiang Town.
During the Apocalypse, the Eastern captives repeatedly had an advantage on the frontal battlefield in Liaodong, and the Ming army was defeated and retreated.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Mao Wenlong stood up.
Based on islands such as Phi Dao, he relocated coastal fishermen to live on the islands and developed them into anti-captivity soldiers.
The imperial court was not very concerned about the supply of Dongjiang Town, and it was very difficult to transport grain, so it could only be transported by sea, and the grain transported to Dongjiang Town was simply not enough to eat.
In desperation, Mao Wenlong could only figure out his own way.
Mao Wenlong's solution was to snatch it from the Tartars.
Don't you like to conquer cities? Then I will harass your rear while you conquer the city.
When Dongjiang Town was in its heyday, there were more than 100,000 soldiers, and its power covered the entire coast of eastern Liaodong.
Every time Dongyu took the initiative to attack, Mao Wenlong would lead his troops to land by boat, killing the Tartars unexpectedly.
Even if the Tartar can fight again, he is not able to deal with two strong opponents at the same time.
In addition, Mao Wenlong's timing is very accurate, and every time he kills when the Tartars pour out of the nest.
For example, the surprise attack on Salhu and the Tartar nest were served in a pot, which boosted the morale of the Ming army for a while.
The Tartar was irritated by Mao Wenlong's guerrilla tactics, and he wanted to eat and skin Mao Wenlong.
But Mao Wenlong ran away after the fight, and didn't give the Tartars a chance to take revenge at all.
Although the Tartars were invincible in cavalry, they were not good at naval warfare.
Mao Wenlong led his troops back to the island, and they could only look at the ocean and sigh.
But they were unwilling to stop there, so they came up with a divisive plan.
They knew that Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Jiliao at that time, saw that Mao Wenlong was not pleasing to the eye, so he tried every means to create contradictions, and even released rumors that Mao Wenlong and Houjin were secretly in contact.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this rumor is extremely ridiculous.
Mao Wenlong was desperately trying to find trouble with Houjin, how could he secretly contact them? Isn't this a slap in the face?
But Yuan Chonghuan believed it.
He also made an appointment with Mao Wenlong to falsely pass on the holy decree and beheaded the chief soldier of Dongjiang Town with Shang Fang's sword.
For a time, the government and the opposition were in an uproar.
Even Emperor Chongzhen was stunned.
No matter what Mao Wenlong said, he was also the general soldier of a town, and although Yuan Chonghuan was the governor, he should not directly use Shang Fang's sword to behead him.
And this black cauldron has to be carried by Emperor Chongzhen.
Emperor Chongzhen was eager to arrest Yuan Chonghuan and bring him into Beijing to scold him.
But considering the situation in Liaodong at that time, he could only endure it.
But at this time, Emperor Chongzhen no longer believed in Yuan Chonghuan's nonsense of Pingliao in the fifth year. Even his generals can kill without permission, who will die for you if you are so violent and unkind?
It's a pity that the good situation in Dongjiang Town was ruined.
After Mao Wenlong's death, his subordinates and righteous sons competed for power and infighting. None of the finalists stepped forward to stop the fight.
The infighting intensified, and in the end, the gold was lowered, and the lonely was alone.
Dongjiang Town is scattered and sandy, and it is difficult to pose a threat to Dongyu.
In this case, Donglu and Huang Taiji no longer have any scruples, and they can unscrupulously attack the cities of Liaozhen and loot unscrupulously.
And Yuan Chonghuan's Guanning Iron Cavalry didn't dare to do anything except hide in the city and watch the play.
After Mao Wenlong's death, the advantages of the Ming Dynasty were gone. It can be said that the last magic weapon of the Ming army has also been lost, and it is completely in a state of passive beating.
The Eight Banners Army could fight as much as it wanted, from where it wanted, and the Ming Army was completely helpless.
If he wants to complete the Jedi turnaround, Emperor Chongzhen can only hope that Yuan Chonghuan will suddenly open his mind. But in fact, Yuan Chonghuan didn't open his mind until he died, he was just a rat who could only talk on paper.
Needless to say, Chongzhen was unable to solve internal and external troubles and finally committed suicide and martyrdom.
On the surface, Emperor Chongzhen died because of Li Zicheng, but in fact it was because of Tartar.
It was precisely because he was repeatedly at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the Tartars that the long-term levy of Liao Liao led to continuous peasant uprisings.
If Mao Wenlong hadn't died, Dongjiang Town wouldn't have fallen apart.
If Dongjiang Town had not fallen apart, the form of the Ming Dynasty would not have been so bad, and Emperor Chongzhen might not have died.
But history has no ifs.
Zheng Chenggong could only sigh.
What matters now is not the history, but the future of Dongjiang Town.
The Son of Heaven wants to re-establish Dongjiang Town, so how to delineate the scope of Dongjiang Town? How to arrange the troops? Who will be the general soldier of this army?
These are all questions.
In Zheng Chenggong's view, the most important problem is that the Tartars now control Beizhili and all the lands of Liaodong. This includes the former Dongjiang Town Islands.
It is not easy to transport soldiers to their hometowns and towns.
Although the original Dongjiang Town was also controlled by Denglai, after all, it was two military towns, and if you went to Dongjiang from Denglai Fuhai, supply would definitely be a big problem.
Seeing Zheng Chenggong's dazed face, the messenger smiled: "Your Majesty said that General Zheng should think about the specific plan, but Your Majesty feels that Dongjiang Town does not need to be chosen at the old site." Where the military flag of the Ming Dynasty is planted, it can be set as the Dongjiang River. ”
Hearing this, Zheng Chenggong's eyes couldn't help but light up.
"Thank you, Envoy."
Zheng Chenggong hugged his fists.
If the saint didn't demand to regain the town in his hometown, then things would be much easier.
At present, the center of gravity of the Tartars is inside the Guan, not outside the Guan, what is the point of setting Dongjiang Town outside the Shanhaiguan?
Wouldn't it be more targeted to set up Dongjiang Town in the sea area near Beizhili?
Suddenly, Zheng Chenggong already had an idea.
In fact, sometimes it's often just a matter of thought.
Once you have figured it out, you can figure it out.
I'm afraid that if I can't figure it out and still compete there, then I'll really fall into a dead loop.
"When does Your Majesty say that your Majesty will make a plan?"
"Your Majesty said that there is no hurry, and you want General Zheng to do things with peace of mind."
"Command!"
At this moment, Zheng Chenggong was very excited, and he felt that he had a lot to do.
Zheng Chenggong is very familiar with maritime affairs, and he can make full use of this point to make a fuss.
And the Son of Heaven gave him plenty of time.
He must come up with a perfect plan, a perfect plan to repay the Son of Heaven for his kindness.
...
...
Recently, Nanjing City ushered in a major event.
Zhu Youlang, the king of Gui, was escorted into the city.
As a rebel, Zhu Youlang is of course no longer the high-ranking King Gui, but a prisoner.
When he entered the city in the middle of the prisoner's cart, all the people were throwing rotten leaves at him.
Because they love the son of the day too much.
It is today that has allowed them to live a good life, and let them be fed and clothed.
And this King Gui actually wants to create a rebellion against the Son of Heaven, isn't this equivalent to smashing everyone's jobs?
Cutting off someone's money is like killing one's parents. At this moment, all the people in Nanjing City hated Zhu Youlang to the core.
Zhu Youlang's expression was a little blank, and he didn't dodge even if the rotten vegetable leaves smashed on his face.
