Since the end of June, Jiangxi and the Qing army in Jiangnan have launched a different war, different from before, the purpose of the two sides is not to conquer the city, but to put the goal on the summer grain.

Raozhou Mansion in Jiangxi, west of Poyang Lake, east of Jiangnan, is the top number of Jiangxi Rank, the original household registration is abundant, and there are countless fertile fields.

Gandi is taxed and collected grain every year, and Raozhou is among the best, but after more than two years of war, coupled with the fact that it is located on the front line of the anti-Qing Dynasty, the people have fled, so seven of the ten rooms are empty.

After Wang Yanquan recovered the land of Jiangxi, the Ming army lived here, and the governor Jiang Yue Guang saw that the fields were deserted, so he distributed the fields that no one cultivated to the soldiers and the people who stayed in Raozhou Mansion to cultivate.

At present, it is the harvest season, and the rice fields are comfortable to see. On the field, there was a crowd of people, and the people left behind and the officials and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were busy in the fields, waving sickles. These people have an orderly division of labor, some are responsible for harvesting, and some are responsible for transportation. On the ridges, there was an endless stream of men and women picking grain, and the heavy grain pressed them for a flash, making a cheerful creak.

In order to seize time, the Ming army used a large number of vehicles, and even brought war horses to pull and transport, and after the harvested rice was left with enough rations, all of them were transported to the rear.

Why is it so rushed? Jin Shengheng attacked everywhere and burned grain everywhere in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Qing army would definitely come to retaliate if it was not angry.

Jiang Yueguang looked at the scene in front of him, and finally had a matter on his mind, as long as the grain is harvested, even if the Gandi has recovered a trace of vitality, there is no problem with the self-sufficiency of the army, and there is no need to eat Hunan's relief grain, and as long as the food is sufficient, are you afraid that you will not be able to keep Jiangxi?

"Be sure to hurry, Raozhou is on the front line, and the Hong thieves were supposed to send troops in June to burn and loot, but they were disrupted by Jindu Town. Now we must put away the grain before the Qing army attacks. ”

Since receiving the secret report of the Heaven and Earth Society, the Hong thief intends to cooperate with the Qing army's war in Sichuan and launch a general attack on Chu and Jiangxi, Jiang Yueguang is worried about fear, and he is most afraid that Xia Harvest will be destroyed by the Qing army.

Jiangxi fought for more than two years, basically was broken, at the end of last year cut off the grain stock, fortunately he and Wan Yuan Ji reopened the Fuzhou mine, reopened the official kiln in Jingdezhen, through trade from the hands of the plug Yinxi for a lot of grain, Jiangxi did not have a grain shortage.

At present, the eight million fathers and elders in Gandi are all looking at the summer harvest, so Jiang Yueguang attaches great importance to it and specially rushes from Nanchang to supervise the collection of grain.

Wang Deren, the Ming general on the side, listened to Jiang Yueguang's instructions, and saw that the summer grain harvest had come to an end, and his heart was full of confidence, "Futai can rest assured, once this grain is harvested, the army will eat more than enough, if the Hong thieves dare to lead the troops to attack, the final general will kill the Qing army without leaving a piece of armor, and will not let the Qing soldiers go deep into the Jiangxi border to destroy." ”

Jiangxi is in urgent need of recuperation, so the defensive strategy of Jiangxi this time is to first replace defense with offense, take the initiative to attack and burn the rice fields in the south of the Yangtze River, and then try to block the Qing army in the area of Raozhou and Guangxin, and in the defense, take the initiative to seek fighters to destroy the enemy.

The deployment of the Ming army in Jiangxi was divided into three parts, Wang Deren and another 10,000 horses were stationed in Raozhou, Jin Shengheng was 30,000 men to guard Guangxin, and Sun Shoufa was 30,000 people to Nanchang.

In this way, if the Qing army advanced along the river, Wang Deren could resist and take the initiative to retreat and lead the Qing soldiers to pursue, and Sun Shoufa of Nanchang advanced forward and joined Wang Deren to stabilize his position, and Jin Shengheng of Guangxin Mansion immediately made a roundabout flank attack and annihilated all the Qing soldiers who entered Raozhou.

The Ming army in Jiangxi was well prepared for the upcoming war.

"Let's go, go back to the city." Jiang Yueguang rode a horse, patrolled the field for a while, then turned the horse's head, and ran in the direction of the city, the horse team ran on the post road, raising a cloud of dust, the soldiers and people on both sides of the road, listening to the movement, raised their heads to take a look, and buried their heads in the field, trying to harvest.

The team galloped for a while, Jiang Yueguang suddenly found that the soldiers working in the fields had straightened up and looked eastward, he thought at first that they had bent over for a long time, and the soldiers moved their lumbar spine and did not care.

But gradually he realized that something was wrong, and on the rice fields on both sides of the post road, it seemed that everyone had stopped working and looked east.

Puzzled, he lowered his horse's speed and looked back, and saw that in the eastern wilderness, pillars of smoke rose into the sky, and from the far east sky, one after another, to the west.

Everyone hurriedly stopped the horses, Wang Deren stared at the east, his face was solemn, "Futai, the Qing army has entered the Kou." ”

At the end of June, Zhang Mingzhen and Zhang Huangyan, the generals under the Lu Jianguo of Zhoushan, repeatedly stepped on the shore to grab grain in eastern Zhejiang and the coast of Nanzhi, and after most of the coastal grain was harvested, the army of King Lu retreated to the sea, and at this time Jin Shengheng's army of burning grain also returned to Guangxin.

The Ming army of Gandi and Lu Jianguo played a beautiful cooperation without consultation, Hong Chengchou and Duoduo were disgraced, and after the Qing court order was issued, they immediately raised troops to march westward and entered Chu and Jiangxi.

At the beginning of July, the Qing troops in Jiangnan divided their troops into two routes, and Manda led 50,000 horses and horses to attack Jiangxi along the south bank of the Yangtze River and directly entered Raozhou.

Duoduo personally led 100,000 horses, from the north bank of the Yangtze River into Huguang, the Ming general Liu Chengyin who guarded Qizhou fled without a fight, Jing King Zhu Changchao hurriedly led the Huang 48 Zhai Righteous Army to block, but although the righteous army was numerous but untrained, it was defeated in a battle, King Jing was killed, Yi Daosan, the owner of Baiyun Village, Wang Guangshu, the owner of Daqi Village, was killed in battle, Zhang Jinyan, the secretary of the Chongzhen Dynasty Military Department, was captured and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and the righteous army was defeated for more than 30 miles.

The Qing army took advantage of the situation to take the counties of Huangzhou, the army approached Wuchang, Chu and Jiangxi were shaken, and they were in Chengtianfu to prepare to increase the troops in Hanzhong, and his son-in-law cooperated with Haoge Wu Sangui to trap him in Shu He Tengjiao was shocked to learn the news, and at this time Xiangfan Hao Shaoqi also came with news, Kong Youde, Shang Kexi and the king of Shun carried 80,000 horses and horses, and went south from Xinye to attack Xiangyang.

The mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings, and the clouds of war suddenly envelop the land of Chu and Jiangxi, overwhelming people.

When He Tengjiao was panicking in his heart, he wanted news to come from Hunan, and Du Yinxi wrote a secret letter to inform He Tengjiao that Zhang Xianbi and Huang Chaoxuan were ambushed, and the matter of welcoming the army was indeed instructed by Fu Shangrui, and the imperial court ordered him to enter the center, and he said that he was sick and did not go, so He Tengjiao was on guard against this person.

He Tengjiao, who got the letter, was heartbroken, and hurriedly led Ma Jinzhong and Wang Jincai back to Wuchang, at this time the Qing soldiers had already arrived in Huanggang.

At that time, He Tengjiao transferred a large number of troops and horses from the eastern front, preparing to march west into Hanzhong, completely defeating Meng Qiaofang, the governor of Shaanxi in the Qing court, and the remaining troops on the eastern front were very limited.

After He Tengjiao received the news from the Heaven and Earth Society, although he stopped increasing his troops in Hanzhong, he did not immediately deploy the eastern front, and his actions were a little hesitant, that is, he wanted to expand the results of Hanzhong's battle, but he was also worried about the eastern front, which caused a passive situation.

At this time, after the Ming general Liu Chengyin retreated from Qizhou without a fight, he fled back to Wuchang again, and only Chen Youlong was left in Huanggang, and his troops were very limited.
