Chapter 517 Across the River
In mid-June, the troops of the Eastern Route Army were in Pengshui County, south of the Xuanfu Division of Shizhu, with the help of more than 1,000 white-pole soldiers from the septuagenarian Taijun Qin Taibao, and repelled the 20,000 Qing soldiers who met by chance, and then lightly took Pengshui County, continued to advance, and pursued the defeated army all the way to the Yangtze River south of Wanxian, which made Wu Sangui shake.
At this time, because Hu Guozhu and Xia Guoxiang brought all the ships back to the north bank, the Eastern Route Army had to temporarily set up camp on the south bank and confront Wu soldiers across the river.
The old lady Qin Liangyu had a grudge against the Shun army and the Western army, and at this time he also abandoned his previous suspicions, although he was infected with wind disease, but he still made suggestions for Gao Yigong, and called on the people of eastern Sichuan to rise up against the Qing Dynasty and find ships for the army.
In the folk story, the Song Dynasty was full of loyal Yang generals, and what the Qin Lao Taijun family did was definitely no worse than the Yang family generals, and there were not a few people who died in the family.
During the Chongzhen period, wars broke out frequently, Qin Liangyu's family was peaceful in the southwest, the Central Plains swept away the Liukou, and the white pole soldiers were famous all over the world, but after all, it was difficult to stop the dynasty from falling.
Brother Qin Bangping, younger brother Qin Minping died successively, and then in the battle with Zhang Xianzhong, the famous general Zhang Ling in Shu was killed by Li Dingguo, and Qin Liangyu's 30,000 white pole soldiers were also wiped out, and since then they have been greatly damaged.
In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Ma Xianglin, the son of the old lady, adhered to Xiangyang, and was martyred after the city was broken. Before he died, he wrote to the old lady: "My son swears to live and die with Xiangyang, and I hope that my adult will not think about the safety of my son!" And the old lady's reply was only one sentence: "Good! Good! Mawu'er! ”
After Jiashen, the bad news came one after another, plus the white pole soldiers were killed and wounded, Ma Xianglin was martyred, and the old Taijun who was over seventy years old was becoming less and less healthy, and Emperor Longwu intended to appoint him, and sent envoys to Shizhu to seal her as the crown prince Taibao, the loyal marquis, and the general of Zhendong, but she was old, and the soldiers and horses in his hands were lost, and the old Taijun was already weak.
This time, the Qing soldiers crossed the river to chase and kill the Western Army, passing through the Shizhu territory, and the old Taijun intended to find an opportunity to attack, but there were only a thousand people in his hands, and he never waited for the opportunity, so he let his nephews Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming follow behind, which happened to help the Eastern Route Army.
Hu and Xia returned to Wanxian with more than 10,000 remnants, Wu Sangui was surprised to learn that the Zhongzhi army had entered Sichuan, and when the East Route Army 100,000 horses set up a large camp on the south bank, and the camp tents were all over the mountains and fields to hold him down, Wu Sangui was suddenly shocked, while shrinking his troops, he quickly reported to Chengdu and told Haoge, "Woe to you, and escape the summer!" ”
On the other side, after the Western Route Army occupied Luzhou, its confidence increased greatly, and Ding Kuichu intended to seize the first merit of Fuchuan.
The reason why Wang Yan is so horizontal now is that he has recovered Chu Gan? When he obtains the first merit of recovering Sichuan, maybe the position of the governor of Sichuan will be his.
Now Guangdong, Huguang, Jiangxi, and Fujian of the Longwu Imperial Court have been carved up, and whoever Ding Kuichu fights with, it is that his arms can't twist his thighs, and Sichuan is different, the country of abundance, the land of ointment, is much stronger than Guangxi and Guizhou, and Wang Yingxiong and Fan Yixuan are all officials appointed by the Hongguang Dynasty, and they can't compete with him at all.
Immediately, Ding Kuichu did the same, and ordered his henchmen to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to guard Luzhou, while he coerced Fan Yixuan, the governor of Sichuan, as well as Wang Xiang and Ma Yingjiao of the Ming Army in southern Sichuan, and outflanked Hezhou in a roundabout way.
In this way, he can not only control Luzhou, but also complete the tasks of the Western Route Army, and can also take the opportunity to absorb and annex the Ming army in southern Sichuan on the way to the army, weakening the strength of the potential opponent Fan Yixuan, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.
At the same time, the Middle Route Army led by Wang Yan also advanced rapidly along the Qijiang River towards Ba County.
Wang Zuntan, the governor of Sichuan in Ba County, who was in Ba County, first received a report from the general of the town of Qianshui, saying that he was attacked by the Ming army, but he didn't care, thinking that it was a straggler of the Ming Dynasty, so he only sent a member of the general Qianzong to lead his men and horses to go to suppress, but as soon as the general manager went, there was no news.
On the second day, the news of the loss of Dongxi and Sanxi came one after another, Wang Zuntan realized that something was unusual, it may be that the main force of the Ming army in Guizhou came, and he was preparing to personally lead the troops to resist the enemy, but the men and horses were not yet ordered, and Qijiang County was also captured in the afternoon, and the Ming army was only one day away from Ba County.
This made Wang Zuntan frightened, and hurriedly asked people to investigate, but the news brought by the scouts turned out to be that the Wuzhong army entered Sichuan, and Wang Yan personally led tens of thousands of troops over.
The Qing army in Sichuan, part of them followed Haoge back to Chengdu, and part of them followed Wu Sangui to Wanxian and Chongqing, because there was no threat, so a total of more than 8,000 green battalion soldiers remained.
Wang Zuntan listened to the scout's report, explaining that the army had at least 40,000 people, he had 8,000 men and horses, and 3,000 were at Fotu Pass on the other side, and it was too late to transfer it now, and Ba County was on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and there was no moat to block it, so how could he resist Wang Yan?
Wang Zuntan heard the news, frightened, did not wait for Wang Yan's troops to arrive, he took the initiative to give up Ba County, retreat to the north bank of the Yangtze River, want to rely on the Yangtze River moat, to prevent tomorrow into the Chengdu Plain, for the Qing army mobilization, to buy time.
On June 20, Wang Yan's soldiers recaptured Ba County bloodlessly, and as time passed, the Qing soldiers finally reacted.
At this time, 50,000 troops and 30,000 people on the middle road were crowded around Ba County, in the narrow area south of the Yangtze River.
Wang Zuntan stood on the north bank and jumped to look, only to see that the land on the south bank was covered by the Ming army, the sky was covered by the banner, and the 80,000 horses exhaled a breath, which was enough to gather into a wind and clouds, and the left and right were cloudy and sunny.
In front of the Qing army, Li Guoying, who rushed to support from Fotu Pass, also stared at a pair of eagle-like eyes and observed the lineup of the Ming army. He had to admit that the Ming army was very strong this time, and he had not seen so many Ming troops since he surrendered.
"Ben Fu received two pieces of news today, and he was very anxious!" Wang Zuntan looked at the Ming army on the other side, which was several times larger, and said worriedly.
"What's the news?" Li Guoying was not too worried, although the Ming army was numerous, there were no ships, and it was basically impossible to pose a threat to them.
Wang Zuntan took a breath, "These two pieces of news, one is that the scouts found that a Ming army of more than 30,000 people in the west had gone to Hezhou in a roundabout way, obviously to cut off our connection with Chengdu. The other was sent by the king of Pingxi, saying that Gao Yigong led 100,000 troops and was facing him across the river, so let us pay attention to defense, afraid that the Ming army would divide the troops and cross the river from Chongqing Mansion to outflank his back road! ”
Li Guoying gasped when he heard this, "So it shows that the army is coming in three ways, isn't it that more than 200,000 people have entered Sichuan?" ”
"Yes~" Wang Zuntan nodded, "Wang Yan is really menacing this time, and he is bound to win!" ”
Li Guoying frowned and thought for a while, and his heart moved, "Lord Futai, Dadukou and Wangjiatuo, can you send someone to guard it?" ”
"This is the easiest place for the army to cross the river, so naturally we have sent people to guard it."
Li Guoying breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, now the king of Pingxi in the east will block Gao Yigong in Wanxian, so that he can't cross the river, and we will block Wang Yan here, and the Ming army will be in vain in vain." As for the Ming army that returned to Hezhou, we don't have to worry, we have Prince Su to solve it. ”
