Chapter 126: The Manchu Dynasty of Internal and External Troubles
According to the arrangement before the expedition, the three armies had their own tasks. Among the fastest updates, Ran Wu's left army will be stationed on the official road from Guangning to Liaoyang to intercept the Qing reinforcements coming out of Guangning.
The right army of Baishan was arranged on the official road from Gaizhou to Liaoyang to intercept the Qing reinforcements coming out of Gaizhou.
Jiangchuan's Chinese army, as the main force attacking Liaoyang, will attack Liaoyang with the most fierce offensive, and strive to take Liaoyang in one go.
Now guarding Liaoyang is the Qing army's yellow flag general Feiyangu, and his Manchu, Mongolian and Han soldiers who attacked more than 20,000.
The Jiang army came fiercely and quickly, and by the time the Qing army in Liaoyang found out, the forward cavalry of the Jiang army had already reached fifty miles away from Liaoyang City.
The military situation was reported to Feyangu, who was in a hurry.
He couldn't help but hurry. If it was a year ago or even a year ago, he was absolutely confident that he would rely on the 20,000 men and horses under his command to defend Liaoyang City, and even go out of the city to counterattack and inflict heavy losses on the enemy.
But that's no longer the case.
Since the birth of this Jiang army, the Qing army has been defeated one after another, losing soldiers and generals, not only losing the princess, but also losing the fierce generals Ao Bai and Yue Tuo, two generals with great achievements, the entire Manchurian Eight Banners lost more than 10,000 elites, and the Han and Mongolian Eight Banners suffered heavy losses.
This kind of fiasco, which has never been seen since the start of the army from Nurhachi, suddenly made the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who was gaining momentum and advancing vigorously, like being beaten in the head of the head, and he has not recovered for half a year.
To say, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was too short and too shallow, so they could enjoy the victory, but they could not bear the consequences of such a big defeat.
The house leak was rained overnight, and the continuous victories of the Jiang army also caused the outbreak of some unstable factors within the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
For example, Lin Dan Khan of Mongolia rebelled, and although it was finally suppressed, it also weakened the national power of the Manchu Qing once again.
Almost at the same time, the three countries on the Korean Peninsula also began to make a move, deliberately delaying and prevaricating the various money, food, materials, women's money, and silk that the Qing State stipulated to be paid, and there were even incidents of Korean people beating Qing envoys in the streets.
Huang Taiji was so anxious that he could only send Dolgon to lead a force of men and horses to sit on the Korean Peninsula to deter the three Korean countries.
All this made the Manchu Qing's already small forces scattered everywhere, unable to concentrate to fight.
However, these are all external troubles, and they are not enough to shake the foundation of the Qing Dynasty.
The most serious thing was at the end of last year, when Huang Taiji, who had always been in good health, finally fell ill.
The reason for this illness was not only because of the defeat of the Qing army on the battlefield, but also because of the dishonesty of Mongolia and Korea, and because of the fear that his beloved daughter Yatu would be captured by the Jiang army.
But the most direct reason was because of the sudden death of Huang Taiji's favorite concubine, Concubine Chen, Hai Lanzhu.
Hai Lanzhu and Bumu Butai are both women from the Horqin Department of Mongolia, and they are both cousins. Hai Lanzhu is smart and gentle, empathetic, and is the most favored woman of Huang Taiji.
Huang Taiji once said that Hailanzhu is the most precious treasure given to him by God, which shows how much he loves it.
Hai Lanzhu suddenly fell ill with smallpox last winter.
In this era, smallpox is basically a helpless thing for all doctors, and whether they can survive depends on whether their lives are hard or not.
Obviously, Hai Lanzhu's life was thin and she didn't carry it, and in the end, she died and died.
Hai Lanzhu's death dealt a heavy blow to Huang Taiji, who was already depressed, and finally fell ill after three days of thinking about tea and dinner.
A few days ago, news came from Shengjing that Huang Taiji was seriously ill, and all the Manchu nobles who received the news hurried back to Shengjing.
Once Huang Taiji dies, it is related to the question of who will be the next emperor. This is a great opportunity for those who have the hope of ascending to the throne of God.
For those who have no hope of becoming emperor, it is also a good opportunity to re-establish themselves and make achievements from the dragon.
Therefore, Duoduo, who had been guarding Liaoyang, rushed back to Shengjing, and Dolgon, who was guarding Korea, also rushed back to Shengjing. Haoge, the eldest son of Huang Taiji, who led troops to deter the Mongol tribes, also rushed back to Shengjing.
The entire Shengjing seems to be calm on the surface, but in private, it is already an undercurrent surging and tense situation.
Soon after the founding of the Manchu Dynasty, the electoral system was still adopted when Nurhachi died, and the four major beylers and the eight minor beylers elected the new Great Khan together.
Huang Taiji is the fourth son of Nurhachi, and if he follows the tradition of the Han dynasty to pass on the lineage, it will not be his turn to do the throne. But under the electoral system, Huang Taiji's personal charm and methods made him the new Great Khan.
At the beginning of Huang Taiji's accession to the throne, he still watched the government together with Amin, Daishan, and Mang Gurtai.
But after a long time, Huang Taiji felt depressed. Many of his ideas and orders would be refuted and refuted by the other three Baylors, which made him a great khan.
Later, with the help and support of the Dorgon brothers, Huang Taiji used various methods to attack the three major Baylors one by one, successively imprisoning Mang Gurtai, and demoting Amin to a concubine, and finally leaving only an old daishan who didn't care about anything.
Dai Shan saw that Huang Taiji's methods were so powerful, and in the end he had to leave it alone, and Huang Taiji, the Great Khan, deserved to be worthy of his name.
After getting rid of the three major Baylors, Huang Taiji proclaimed himself emperor at the suggestion of Dolgon, and changed the name of the country to Jin to Qing, and changed the Jianzhou Jurchen to Manchuria, which was the Manchu Qing state.
However, until Huang Taiji's death, Huang Taiji did not establish new rules for the inheritance of the imperial throne, because he knew that his prestige was not enough for his descendants to inherit the throne according to the Han tradition.
Therefore, Dolgon, Hauge, and even Zilharang and other people who had the opportunity to compete for the throne were mobilized.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the seat in the Shengjing Palace, and they didn't care about the various crises in the outside world.
Of course, Feiyangu knew this, he never thought that the Jiang family's army, who had thought that they were not capable of attacking the city, would actually send troops at this critical juncture that was related to the future direction of the Manchu Qing State.
Although Feuyangu was also a fierce general, he always listened to orders under the accounts of Dorgon or Duoduo and others. This time, let him be alone, and his shortcomings in the ability to deal with the situation were exposed.
After turning around in place for a few turns, Feiyangu finally came up with a solution, and hurriedly ordered the guards around him: "Quickly take my general order to Gaizhou and Quang Ninh to ask for help, and let them send troops quickly, otherwise Liaoyang will be in danger." ”
The guards hurriedly took the order and left, and after a while, two small groups of cavalry galloped out from the east gate and the north gate of Liaoyang.
At this time, the vanguard of the Jiang family army had already reached Liaoyang City twenty miles away.
