Chapter 146: Rivalry (15)
Sure enough, according to the spies' report, the officers and troops had withdrawn the main force, and the camp was empty. At this time, it is a good time for "praying mantis catching cicadas, yellow finches behind"!
Tusi hurriedly ordered the troops and horses to be gathered and rushed in and out of the city. King Gongchang, who was fighting for the fight, suffered from the enemy on his back--- it would be better if he could be captured alive and get the initiative in negotiations! Whether it is to the Ming or the Qing Dynasty, King Gongchang is an important bargaining chip, which can be used as a meat ticket for various materials for status, and for Manchu officials, this is to take Bai Wenxuan's head to invite merit and reward.
Of course, being able to rush in to change the situation of the battle and grab the spoils of war when the two armies are inseparable is also the reason for this adventure, and the tactics used by the Manchu Qing after entering the customs are similar, otherwise they will not be able to barely maintain the myth of the invincibility of the Eight Banners in the Kangxi period, of course, if they are carried by the retreating troops and defeated together, it is another matter. As the saying goes, painting a tiger is not an anti-dog.
Longchuan Tusi is confident that he can change the tide of battle on a messy battlefield, rather than being defeated by others. Traveling lightly on the mountain road, the local soldiers under Tusi did not walk slowly, and the colors on their bodies were in harmony with the environment. However, lightly armoured is sometimes not a good word in the military--- which is equivalent to abandoning most of the heavy equipment and logistics, and if there is no organization, it is equivalent to abandoning the armor and running away. In the case of individual weapons occupying a huge firepower output, such interspersing is not completely impossible--- later generations of volunteers still created miracles through infantry in the era when heavy troops occupied the main firepower of the killing, isn't it?
Lord Tusi didn't know the conditions needed to go around, but he had heard the old boy vaguely say a few words, and at this time, the military situation was like fire, so he quickly took people away in person.
If Bai Wenxuan knew that he was being used as a bargaining chip, he would probably wake up with a smile in his dreams--- he had seen a light enemy, but he had never seen such a light enemy, his troops were not superior, and his weapons and equipment were inferior, so he dared to use himself as a bargaining chip? Don't look at you little ants, the wheels of history run over you, and you can't see any traces!
A day later, the rebels gathered by the three Tusi families of Ganya, Nandian and Mangshi were piled up in a thirty-mile-long river valley. In the midst of this quarrel, looking at the enemy who was still in the marching formation, the fourth regiment expanded into a battle formation to fight; In less than half an hour, the three rebels were beaten and retreated---- those who were still arguing finally stopped arguing, because a group of Ming troops had surrounded the place, and they were forced to walk out with their heads in their hands amid laughter.
Before the Longchuan native soldiers arrived at the battlefield, they were hit by a battalion that was deployed in the front. A few rounds of shooting shattered the last bit of fantasy that Lord Toast had.
"Your chance to make meritorious service has arrived." An officer said contemptuously, and the differently dressed man next to him immediately bowed down, it was the nephew of the toast.
"Understood!" He nodded almost happily, and "returned" to Longchuan City with his original team and deceived the city gate. These people controlled the city gate while welcoming the Ming army.
When the officers around him were congratulating Bai Wenxuan, Bai Wenxuan sat on his horse and thought: The emperor knows the combat effectiveness of the new army better than himself, why did he send a regiment to kill chickens in this regard? At this time, it was about to be completed, and the progress bar for quelling the Longchuan (Sichuan) Gan (Ya) rebellion had reached 80 percent. There is also a 20 percent chance that the troops sent by Li Dingguo's side will be the first to arrive, or they may still belong to themselves, thus taking all the points of the entire war. In high spirits, Bai Wenxuan was a little suspicious: Why did the emperor give himself such a copy of his merits?
"Lord Wang, there is a copper wall in front of you."
Bai Wenxuan nodded. "How's the scout in front of you paying off?"
"Return safe, no enemy is found, you can pass."
As a result, a mighty dragon passed through the gate, and thousands of feet stepped over this place that had humiliated the Chinese nation in history. When these places returned to the rule of the imperial court, they would inevitably set up liuguan, which originally became a checkpoint for the Burmese to insult the Chinese emperor, but now they have been passed by the Chinese people's high morale, which can be said to be different from the past.
Passing through the Tongbi Pass, there is an almost identical Tusi Fortress in the distance. It's just that the terrain where the fortress is located is much higher than that of Longchuan, and it seems that all sides are under its mountain. The faint traces were "touched" by the scouts with bloody hands, and there were actually fortifications outside the city.
"Hmph, a barbarian is a barbarian, if I come to arrange troops, I will not let this ambush be launched immediately, but put a long line to catch a big fish." Bai Wenxuan complained in his heart, he had heard too much praise in recent days, and he was unwilling to make peace with the staff officers. These people have a lot of brains, but in addition to doing staff work, they look more like scholars and children.
……
Half a month later.
On the map of the Fuming Palace, these four Tusi have disappeared: Longchuan, Ganya, and the two Xuanfu Divisions were assigned to the Zhongxing Mansion that was restored again together with Hanlong County; Mangshi, Nandian two Tusi and Yongchang Prefecture separated from Tengyue Prefecture newly established Tengchong Mansion, Tengchong County (that is, the original Tengyue Prefecture City) as the seat of governance. Zhu Youlang was very conceited that not long after this map was hung, the local military administration department could be dispatched.
Zhongxing Prefecture was upgraded to Zhongxing Prefecture, and Liu Kanshan, as the former governor of Zhongxing Prefecture, was not flattened, but was promoted to the prefect in the same place, and once again became a shining star in the officialdom. As an industrial and commercial town and a suburban village, Liu Kanshan has barely adapted to the current work, but with two more agricultural counties at once, the work is immediately complicated---- and the financial unification alone will cost lives! If the population of these two counties cannot be quickly swept into the shacks and houses outside Zhongxing, then these two counties will become a burden on Zhongxing, and Liu Guanshan has never had such a strong concept of an economic colony.
Fortunately, the power of capital is pushing Liu Kanshan's political achievements forward, and after the rail bureau issued bonds again, the construction team that built the track returned to Longchuan and built the track according to the standard of double line. A large number of workers were concentrated along the line, and at once they opened up the sales channels for nearby agricultural and sideline products, allowing some peasants who had been divided to land to touch silver for the first time.
At the end of November, the Longgan rebellion was quelled, and twenty-four of its thief chieftains were abated and beheaded. ---- "Ming Shilu"
On the 10th day of the twelfth month of winter, the emperor fell into a coma, woke up on the 17th, summoned Wang Xi and Maleji into the house, and dictated the edict. Two people and three into the decision.
That night, the emperor collapsed. ---- "Dongyu Record"
