Section 143 Unknown Acquaintances

The first tornado begins at the end of the Wanderer

"It's really shocking!

Kill Gao Qiqian, seize his military power, join forces in one place, and drive the Tartars to destroy the captives as easily, this is the best policy?

Don't you know that this is no different from rebellion? Or do you want your Qin family temple to not exist?

Hugh was sloppy and disrespectful, and hurriedly said the middle and the next policy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Yesterday, when Qin Haoming was about to talk about the strategy, he was interrupted by the county order of Zhao County, and some of the grain and grass in the city were pickled in stagnant water, and the soldiers needed to rescue them.

It wasn't until late at night that it was straightened out, so I asked Qin Haoming to re-mention the old matter early this morning, how did I know that it was such a so-called best policy?

That is, Qin Haoming dared to say such a thing in front of him, that is, he collapsed on the Taishi chair and was lazy, as if he was joking, so that he Lu Xiangsheng would not be angry.

If it were anyone else, it would be an uproar, or ......

Alas, Qin Haoming sighed slightly in his heart, and the first temptation failed.

He was cautious, three points true and seven points false, with his undefeated prestige and Lu Xiangsheng's appreciation of him, and he coincidentally took advantage of the development of the current situation, it was still difficult to succeed.

It can be seen that a gentleman can be deceived in a way, but he can't be reckless?

Lu Xiangsheng is unwary of himself, but he insists on things that go beyond principles.

"The central strategy is naturally to stick to Zhao County, respond to all changes with the same, and wait for the development of the current situation. As for the next policy, don't mention it. ”

Qin Hao was obviously a little excited, and his tone was gloomy.

It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, she has already done everything she should do, and she is worthy of asking herself.

When there is a serious problem at the top of the leadership of a huge organization, the whole organization will be like a stranded whale, seemingly physically strong, but it is extremely difficult to even turn over, and can only be slaughtered.

How many things need to be coordinated and unified, such as the unification of the army's command authority, food and salary supply, and the plan of action for the next stage, and how many things need to be clarified, and rights and responsibilities need to be clarified?

It's a pity that Emperor Chongzhen still didn't do anything when he sat in Beijing, and only sent the manager and supervisor Li Conghua to reward him, and there was no substantive solution, which was useful?

Alas!

It was Lu Xiangsheng's turn to let out a long sigh, he was too demanding.

The situation is clear, if Jiannu does not attack the city, the 20,000 soldiers and soldiers of the Tianxiong Army have not arrived, how can they be the opponents of 50,000 or 60,000 Jiannu?

Before, Qin Haoming was unprepared to attack him, using Jiannu to paralyze carelessness, not understanding the situation, quite in the Art of War: all those who fight, with the right fit, with the odd victory.

But in the final analysis, war still depends on strength, and being upright is the right way. Therefore, there are: the shape of the soldier, avoiding the real and attacking the false, the water is controlled by the ground, and the soldier is won by the enemy.

Now that Jiannu is clearly on guard and has joined forces in one place, what can he do?

On the other hand, on his own side, there are more than 100,000 people in the three places, and they are not in contact with each other, so is it no wonder that he wants to do illegal things?

"If there were any of Boya and Yan Yan to help me, I wouldn't have fallen into such a difficult place."

Qin Haoming didn't say anything, he also knew that there was no other way than to launch a suicide attack on his 20,000 Tianxiong army.

After a long time, Lu Xiangsheng looked up to the sky again and sighed.

After hearing this, Qin Haoming covered his face with his hands and smiled bitterly, he didn't even know how to say it.

Speaking of which, Chongzhen doesn't know anyone!

Whether it is Sun Chuanting or the traitor Hong Chengchou, it is said that he is a rare capable person in the Ming court at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

The traitor Hong Chengchou won't talk about him, Sun Chuanting alone, like Lu Xiangsheng, is really the minister of the humerus of the Ming Dynasty.

Sun Chuanting, whose name is Boya, is a native of Dai County, Shanxi, and Lu Xiangsheng is similar to Lu Xiangsheng, who is said in the history books to be "resolute and strategic", and is an introverted and resourceful character.

He entered Beijing as an official during the Apocalypse and served as the head of the Ministry of Officials, and when Wei Zhongxian was in power, Sun Chuanting simply resigned and went home, and continued to live at home for more than ten years.

During the Chongzhen period, the peasant army rose up, and the Qing army continued to enter the Kou, and officials from Beijing, Shaanxi, and Shanxi, who were good friends with Sun Chuanting, continued to recommend Sun Chuanting out of the mountain.

So in the eighth year of Chongzhen, Sun Chuanting was activated. He was first transferred to the prefect of Shuntian, and the following year he was promoted to the governor of Shaanxi.

At that time, the situation he faced was even more difficult than Lu Xiangsheng's early days, when Shaanxi was once a mess. Compared with Lu Xiangsheng, who had enough time to train the troops, Sun Chuanting simply exercised in actual combat.

His soldiers mainly came from southeastern Shaanxi, and most of them were the children of "soldiers" families, and the local people were fierce and fierce, and their combat strength was not bad.

It is especially worth mentioning that most of the fierce Qin soldiers, from salary to food, relied on the supply of military tuns issued by Sun Chuanting and local wealthy families in Shaanxi, and rarely made the imperial court pay, and the cost performance was extremely high.

With such a cost-effective army, Sun Chuanting showed his strength, in July of the ninth year of Chongzhen, Sun Chuanting defeated the peasant army Gao Yingxiang many times after several battles, and finally set up an ambush in the Meridian Valley and wiped out Gao Yingxiang's department.

In January of the 11th year of Chongzhen, Sun Chuanting led his troops to defeat the peasant army in Baoji, Shaanxi, and used the tactics of "encircling the point to send reinforcements" to severely damage Li Zicheng in Tongguan, Shaanxi, and beat Li Zicheng to flee in a hurry with only 8 people.

Sun Chuanting took advantage of the victory to pursue, and then went south to Henan, and defeated the peasant army "Thirteen Coalition Army" in Lingbao, Henan.

Seeing that he was about to achieve a complete victory, it was Yang Sichang, who killed Lu Xiangsheng, who proposed to Chongzhen to "recruit An", but as a result, Zhang Xianzhong and other remnants of the peasant army were recruited, and the opportunity to completely annihilate the peasant army fell short.

The reason why Yang Sichang and Sun Chuanting couldn't get along was also because of the "route results".

As the secretary of the Ministry of War, Yang Sichang proposed the plan of "four positives, six corners and ten nets" to exterminate the peasant army, and Sun Chuanting agreed with this strategy, but resolutely opposed the use of this strategy to increase troops and salaries.

Sun Chuanting was even more worried about the peasant army of "Zhao'an", and suggested that the troops should be kept under surveillance in the local area to prevent them from rebelling.

Just these two things made Yang Sichang angry.

Originally, in the history of the Qing army's entry into the Kou, Sun Chuanting was also ordered to enter Beijing to rescue. However, Yang Sichang was afraid that he would make meritorious contributions, so he strictly ordered Sun Chuanting's department not to fight.

After the war, he advocated that Sun Chuanting himself be transferred and Sun Chuanting's troops should be left to defend the capital.

"going down the mountain to pick peaches" made Sun Chuanting so angry that he became deaf.

But the disaster was not over, the sick Sun Chuanting asked for leave, Chongzhen actually thought that Sun Chuanting was shirking responsibility, and sent Sun Chuanting to prison with an edict.

During Sun Chuanting's imprisonment, as Sun Chuanting expected, the peasant uprising and rebellion resumed, and Zhang Xianzhong's troops, who escaped due to Yang Sichang's obstruction, rebelled again.

The evil consequences of the "four positives, six corners and ten nets" were also highlighted, and the peasants who were forced to live by the tax echoed one after another, and Li Zicheng also went out of the mountains again with great fanfare.

In May of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng swept Henan, Kaifeng was encircled, and the Ming Dynasty was in danger.

Unable to do so, Chongzhen had to use Sun Chuanting again.

But at this time, most of the elite Qin soldiers that Sun Chuanting painstakingly built had been disbanded.

When he returned to Shaanxi, he only had more than 10,000 newly recruited soldiers in his hands and had no combat experience.

In the face of such a mess, Sun Chuanting did his best to defend Tongguan. He believed that as long as Tongguan was not lost and Shaanxi was kept, the Ming Dynasty would be able to keep the opportunity to quell the peasant uprising.

But Chongzhen commanded blindly, and in May of that year, Chongzhen issued an edict urging Sun Chuanting to march into the army.

With this army with no combat experience, Sun Chuanting was defeated in Henan and had to retreat to Shaanxi. He knew very well that Li Zicheng's next goal must be to enter Shaanxi, so he sorted out the city defense in Tongguan and manufactured firearms, intending to hold on.

However, in May of the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, Chongzhen once again strictly ordered Sun Chuanting to attack automatically and fight a decisive battle with Li Zicheng.

Sun Chuanting, who knew that he was going to die, began the last battle of his life.

On August 12, in the Battle of Xiangcheng, in the face of Li Zicheng's 500,000 army, Sun Chuanting fought again, and the whole army was annihilated.

Therefore, later generations have a common saying: "The court dies, the Ming Dynasty dies."

"Do Lu Du and Sun Du have a good relationship?"

History is no longer traceable, and it is useless to remember the past, let alone change it.

But Lu Xiangsheng's words made him see a new glimmer of hope, so he asked.
