If Feng Shuangli and Ma Jinzhong will be able to complete the encirclement with Li Dingguo, the heavy army group of the Qing army will not be spared in the case of the death of the commander. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info and once this army composed of the Manchurian Eight Banners and the Mongolian Eight Banners at the core of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was lost, it would be impossible for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who had only 40,000 or 50,000 people in Zhenyi Dingkou.

At that time, the Manchus were not only unable to fight anymore, but also could no longer suppress the green battalion generals who depended on them.

However, Feng Shuangli had already received Sun Kewang's secret order before, and he had never appeared on the battlefield, and Ma Jinzhong did not dare to go when he saw this. Li Dingguo, who was alone, was powerless, and he gave up Hengzhou Mansion not long after returning to Hengyang, missing this great opportunity.

As Huang Zongxi said after the time passed: "The victory of Guilin and Hengzhou of the husband Li Dingguo, the two famous kings, the world is shaken, this has been the heyday of the world since the beginning of the century, the success is successful and the things are defeated, and the meat is expected to be eaten!" Qu Yuan asked the sky so much! ”

However, this year, the Ming army's successive battles on the southwest battlefield did reverse the offensive and defensive momentum here, and even if Li Dingguo withdrew from Hengyang, in fact, the Ming army was still in an advantage, while the Qing army could only passively defend.

However, the contradiction between Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo is about to ignite, and Chen Wen is well aware of what this means. However, after killing Chen Jin, he no longer has the pessimistic attitude towards the future because he knows something about history.

After two years of accumulation, he already has the ability to change the situation in the southwest of Zhejiang, even if it is only the southeast battlefield, the amplitude is far less than that of Li Dingguo, but another plan to turn the tables has already sprouted in his mind. That is to invite Li Dingguo to enter Jiangxi in the east, and then unite Li Dingguo and Zheng Chenggong to sweep the southeast from the Yangtze River, Zhejiang and the sea route at the same time, and recover Nanjing!

The basis of this plan was that Li Dingguo was able to quickly recover Jiangxi, which was not an easy task, and the Manchu Qing had heavy troops stationed in Nanchang, Jiujiang and Nanjiang in Jiangxi, plus Arzin's Manchu Eighth Banner Army, the strength should not be underestimated.

In fact, Li Dingguo had already sent Zhang Sheng and Gao Bigui, two generals, to join forces to attack western Jiangxi at the invitation of the Yunxiao Mountain anti-Qing rebel army in western Jiangxi, and these people were exterminated by Liu Guangbi, the governor of Jiangxi, and Hu Yousheng, the general of Southern Jiangxi, in October and November. But now, Jiangxi Governor Liu Guangbi and another Jiangxi mobile force Jiujiang General Yang Jie's headquarters were all contained in Quzhou by Chen Wen, and Hu Yousheng still had to stay in Southern Jiangxi to guard against Zheng Chenggong in southern Fujian, not to mention the extermination of the anti-Qing rebel army, and if he could hold those strategic places, he already had to recite "Amitabha".

At present, the situation in Jiangxi is rotten, and Arzin has become a situation that is difficult to support alone, and Chen Wen believes that it will be easy to recover Jiangxi with Li Dingguo's ability.

This plan can be said to be a smaller version of the "three bureaus", but the area involved is smaller and easier to implement. Out of trust in Li Dingguo's ability, Chen Wen had already sent a messenger to Huguang before the victory in Hengyang, and strongly invited Li Dingguo to enter Jiangxi, thinking that he should be able to deliver the letter to Li Dingguo before he decided to go south to Guangdong. The only thing that made Chen Wen feel uneasy was that he didn't even have a daughter-in-law now, let alone a prosperous family like Zheng Chenggong, and Li Dingguo didn't have the opportunity to woo Chen Wen's "daughter" for his son, so as to reach a more stable alliance between them.

It was already the first half of the lunar month, and the news of Li Dingguo's killing of Nikan had not yet reached the occupied area of the Ming army in Zhejiang, but Chen Wen had pondered it, and as soon as the news came, he immediately publicized it, so that the good news could be better fermented in Zhejiang, so as to get the support of more people who had regained their sight.

After half a month of screening, those men who were recruited from the occupied areas of Jinhua, Quzhou, and Chuzhou, as well as those who came from the occupied areas of the Qing army, who were interested in joining the army, have entered the expanded new barracks in batches and waited for the start of formal training. According to the progress of the report, these quasi-officials should not be able to return to their hometowns during the Spring Festival this year.

Having annexed the territory of several counties in a row, every minute of this time, his Zhejiang Ming army would grow dramatically. Chen Wen believed that whether it was him or the Manchu Qing Dynasty, everyone knew that as long as the training of this batch of recruits was completed and the new combat battalion was formed, there would be a resurgence in southwest Zhejiang.

However, after Chen Jin was besieged, under the command of Ma Guozhu, the governor of Jiangnan and Jiangxi, the Qing army temporarily stabilized the Quzhou front, but the slow response of the Chuzhou side still gave the Ming army a chance to expand sharply.

At present, the Qing army is indeed unable to fight again, but Chen Wen always feels that the southeast Qing army is a little too passive, just looking at Jiangshan County, it seems that it is almost hanging the battle exemption card, and it is not at all like the state that the southeast Qing army is still in absolute superiority should show.

However, if the vision is extended to the situation of the whole country, then the Qing army's decision to give priority to the southwest battlefield and stabilize the southeast battlefield has become the only answer. It seems that this is really the case.

In any case, regardless of whether Li Dingguo was invited or not, and regardless of the Qing army's intentions, just like Zheng Chenggong, Chen Wen firmly believed that only his own strength was strong enough to deal with all changes, as he had insisted before.

The captives of the Qing army have been turned into coolies wearing the clothes of the green camp under the drive of the leather whip, and the earlier batch has already had a few good performers who have been promoted to the overseers of the new coolie team, and the first order they received is to use their own experience to tell the new coolies a truth - work hard, and the Ming army will let you live in the future; As for not abiding by the rules of the Ming Army, there is a dead end!

Driven by the Ming army and under the strict supervision of the overseers, these coolies began the construction of a series of military facilities in Jinhua, Quzhou, and Chuzhou. Among them, the fortress in Anhua Town not only needs to be repaired, but Chen Wen is determined to transform it into a more complex form to cope with the attack of the Qing army.

The production of military supplies and armaments is still ongoing, and in addition to the raw materials produced locally in these three prefectures, Chen Wen also invited some businessmen from the Longyou Merchant Gang to come and prepare to negotiate with them.

The master sharing system has been established, but the effect is not obvious, because the defective rate of apprentices has not yet gone down, and it will take some time to greatly increase production capacity.

Thankfully, however, Xu Yi's offer to recruit locksmiths to make flintlock pistol bolts did work to a certain extent. However, the locksmiths recruited have the same problem as the firecrackers of the Military Industry Department, that is, the craftsmanship must be to a certain extent, and there is also a problem, that is, the locksmith can only make the bolt, but the barrel cannot be made. Fortunately, there was already a standardized foundation before, and the manufacturing speed of the military industry department has indeed been improved, but it is not as big as expected.

In addition, the bounty of the hydraulic machinery has already been claimed, and it has indeed been received.

However, Chen Wen was not satisfied with this, because the person who received the reward was a British missionary, or more precisely, an assistant who did not have much scientific knowledge. As for this crooked nut, what made Chen Wen quite dissatisfied was that this guy took a few books on European machinery and weapons translated by Sun Yuanhua and others and got the bounty in his hands.

An Englishman who exchanged a bounty for books that the Chinese had already translated at the end of the Ming Dynasty. What's even more shameless is that this guy actually uses the Latin version he brought from Macau, so blatantly bullying nine years of compulsory education without teaching Latin, it is really unbearable.
