Chapter 119: Available (First Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"Weng Shan, what should I do next?"
The reason why Zhu Mingzhong asked this question was because he hoped to learn his ideas from Qu Dajun, so as to further improve this plan, after all, in the forums of later generations, people only mentioned the twelve-character "Northern Expedition by Sea", and after the Northern Expedition, almost no one speculated too much.
"You know, there are still more than 200,000 flag soldiers!"
Zhu Mingzhong, who followed Qu Dajun's words, directly pointed to the Qing army that posed the greatest threat to Jiangbei - the more than 200,000 Qing troops led by Shunzhi Yujia himself.
Faced with the question asked by Jing Luo, Qu Dajun said almost without thinking.
"Kill the Qing and the nobles, and serve their women and children, but it's just a means, the wives and children of the Qing soldiers are all in Beijing, and they can mess with the hearts of the Qing army, and if the Qing prisoners lose their Beijing division, there will be a big earthquake in the world, if the place is in turmoil, hundreds of thousands of troops are like rogues, and there will be no fixed place from now on!"
Tempt!
Just like a hungry person facing a plate of fat, in Qu Dajun's words, Zhu Mingzhong saw an opportunity, an opportunity to end the Manchu rule in Guannei, if he could take advantage of the emptiness of the Beijing division, send a partial army to Tianjin by sea, Kejing Division, then the whole situation will be fundamentally reversed.
If the loyal army can seize the Beijing division, it will inevitably fundamentally shake the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and at that time, not only will the local people surrender one after another, I am afraid that even those traitors who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty will also surrender one after another.
"Back then, Li Chuang lost to the Beijing Division, immediately became a rootless Ping, everywhere he went, there was no local attack, the local thieves of the officials have cut off their grain and grass, if the Jing can overcome the Beijing Division, at that time, it is bound to fundamentally shake the so-called orthodoxy, now, the Qing Dynasty to the orthodoxy, my Ming traitors are all orthodox, to the Beijing Division, will be able to shake its fundamentals, so that it has no money to pay, and no food to wrap the belly, so, and why worry about the Qing Dynasty is undefeated?"
Eyes staring at Jing Liu, Qu Dajun's expression seemed a little excited, for more than ten years, this is exactly what he longed for, but he almost never saw hope, and now, for the first time, he really saw hope, even if Zheng successfully conquered Nanjing, in his opinion, it was only a success of three points, although Zhu Mingzhong defeated Da Su, the success was only five points, but if the Jing Division was restored, at that time, at least ninety percent of the success!
"After losing the Beijing division and losing his family, the Qing Dynasty will be disheartened, and then I will only need to sweep it with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai, and it will be forced to surrender or make it disperse, as for the Fulin child, it is a fluke to escape, and it is difficult to escape the end of Li Chuang, when the Qing Dynasty collapses, since I pacify Liaodong, then the world will be safe, and I will be able to prosper!"
With his hands over the top, Qu Dajun said again.
"At that time, Jinglu will be the first hero of my Ming Dynasty!"
No matter who it is, Kefu Jingshi will definitely be the first hero of the Ming Dynasty. This battle can not only expel the Qing captives in the Guan, but also pacify Liaodong, after all, the Qing captives in Liaodong are extremely limited now, and the main force of the Qing captives in the Guannai has been lost.
Even together with Mongolia, it can be solved by homeopathy!
"Hmmm......"
In the face of this temptation, Zhu Mingzhong's whole person fell into contemplation, his brows were furrowed and tightened, and the possibility of this matter was repeatedly weighed in his mind, the possibility was extremely high, and it could even be said that there was at least eighty percent of the chance, as long as the navy was strong enough.
Eighty percent chance!
In military terms, it almost means 100% success!
For any military general, he would choose to implement this plan.
When looking at Qu Dajun, Zhu Mingzhong realized that this young man who spoke Cantonese official dialect, at least in his strategic thinking, has far surpassed the people of this era.
This person can be of great use!
When Zhu Mingzhong fell silent, Qu Dajun looked at him a little nervously, looking at this already famous Ming general, even when he was in the north, he had heard his name countless times from the remnants of the Ming Dynasty, almost everyone mentioned him, all of them were full of energy, and even among the Beijing Division, those officials who were forced to surrender were also excited when they mentioned him.
He is different from Zheng Chenggong, his army has only been a few months, and the people he relies on are only tens of thousands of recruits, but it is with these recruits who are invulnerable in the eyes of many people, he first captured Nanjing, and then defeated Dasu, although everyone in the world is good at training, but in people's eyes, this just shows that the people's will is clear, not in the Qing Dynasty, indicating that the general trend of the world is in the clear!
And in terms of heart, if the Northern Expedition by waterway is implemented, Qu Dajun prefers to be carried out by Zhu Mingzhong rather than Zheng Chenggong, although both of them have the name of loyalty, but as a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, he knows that the name of loyalty is just a false name in the face of reality. In contrast, among the two of them, Zhu Mingzhong's foundation is the weakest, he does not have decades of experience like the Zheng family, and the Zheng army is a private army that only knows the Zheng family and does not know the Ming court, if Zheng Chenggong's Northern Expedition is successful, it may not be the blessing of the Ming Dynasty, after all, the Zheng family's strength is strong, and there will be too many possibilities at that time.
In contrast, Zhu Mingzhong's foundation is weak, and he is known for his loyalty, but his strength is far inferior to Zheng Chenggong, even if his Northern Expedition is successful, with Zheng Chenggong, Zhang Cangshui and Li Dingguo as constraints, he may not dare to rebel. In this way, he was the first choice for the Northern Expedition.
After the Jiashen Heavenly Change, the Ming Dynasty, which was killed by the Qing captives, can no longer afford the turmoil!
Whether it is for the country or for the people. Zhu Mingzhong is the first choice for the Northern Expedition, of course, if possible, Zhang Cangshui is also a suitable candidate, but he is in Jiangxi, and he is not as strong as Zhu Mingzhong, so he is naturally excluded by Qu Dajun......
"Weng Shan, this is a very good discussion, but ......"
After pondering for a moment, Zhu Mingzhong, who had already received the answer in his heart, stared at Qu Dajun and asked rhetorically.
"If Zhu's Northern Expedition by sea is successful, what will happen then?"
Looking at Qu Dajun, who seemed puzzled, Zhu Mingzhong continued,
"Right now, the current Shangshang and the imperial court are in Burma, even if Zhu reinstates the Beijing division regardless of the cost, what can he do?"
"In Burma today?"
Qu Dajun looked at Zhu Mingzhong in surprise, and immediately understood what he meant.
"Jinglu is worried that no one will preside over the overall situation when the Northern Expedition is successful......"
No one is in charge of the big picture!
This is also a problem, the imperial court is not in the Beijing Division, so taking the Beijing Division is just a vain name! What the people of the world need is a capital division with an emperor, not just a capital master!
"What should we do now?"
