Chapter 669: Concentrated Outbreak

Emperor Chongzhen admired He Kegang's loyalty and bravery, and did not delay a day to start ordering troops and platooning generals.

Due to the good overall situation of the Ming Dynasty last year, the civil and military generals were full of confidence during the court discussion, and finally unanimously agreed to send elite soldiers and fierce generals to give the Qing army color.

The Ministry of War immediately transferred Heihu to lead 5,000 Shanhaiguan troops, Lu Chengzu led 5,000 Denglai men, and Datai Jiqing Getai led 5,000 Nekhalkha cavalry and Chengda to lead 5,000 troops out of Ningyuan, a total of 20,000 elites went to rescue Jinzhou.

This time, the 20,000 horses were all elite soldiers of the "God of War" department, and the emperor was confident, because he had not yet discovered that the "God of War" men and horses had suffered defeats.

Of course, it is a matter of course to control military affairs with literature, and Chengda was appointed as the governor of Liaodong to coordinate and command all the people who reinforced Jinzhou.

The emperor sent Liu Yingkun, a great eunuch who was familiar with the situation in Liaodong, to supervise the army, promoted Ye Chengjing to be the deputy envoy of the front province of Zhengwu Pinning, and sent Gao Zhimou to serve as the military garrison of the front road of Zhengsi Pinning.

The rescue troops sent by the imperial court have a strong lineup, all of them are people who dare to fight, and they are ready to teach Jiannu a good lesson under the city of Jinzhou together with He Kegang's department.

Who knew that Haoge's dispatch of men and horses only created a tactical illusion to mobilize the Ming army to Liaodong, they did not fight with the Ming army at all, and the Qing army withdrew the siege the day before the arrival of the army, but he did not retreat, but crossed the Sancha River and confronted the Ming army across the river.

The Red Gang laughed after learning that the Ming army came to rescue the Jinzhou troops, and the purpose of his son to attack Jinzhou was to drag down the Ming army.

His plan was completely successful, and it was possible to plunder Gyeonggi again to obtain a large amount of wealth, population, and supplies.

At this time, the Jiannu and Tatar coalition forces led by Yue Tuo broke through the border wall.

Wang Zhaokun led the army to fight, but unfortunately the disparity in strength was defeated and died, the Ming army retreated to Changping, and the Qing soldiers invaded Juyong and Changping North Road again.

Fu Wushuang is not a one-way street, and the liukou, who seems to have stopped for a while, seems to know that the Ming Dynasty was attacked by the Qing army and broke out again.

It was that the people of Shanxi and Henan were still struggling to make a living, and the imperial court did not effectively solve the livelihood of the common people at all, and the spark immediately turned into a prairie fire.

The official document of 600 miles of urgent requests for help in many places once again scared the princes of the Ming Dynasty into dispossession, and the prices of the capital soared again, and rumors spread again for a while.

Emperor Chongzhen learned last year that the slave chief had been called the emperor, angry but helpless, there are too many small countries around the Ming Dynasty, each country is a self-proclaimed king, and few openly call the emperor.

The Red Gangster not only founded the "Great Qing Dynasty", but also boasted of being the "Emperor of Leniency and Benevolence", which is tolerable and intolerable.

Chongzhen planned whether he could take the initiative to send troops to rebel, but who knew that the people were aggressive and came to the door again.

This is still different from the past, the Qing army actually used troops on both sides at the same time, which shows that Jiannu is not what it used to be, and its strength is not trivial.

The Ministry of War sent 5,000 troops to Liu Zeqing, Shandong, 4,000 to Wang Zhong and Mengruhu, 5,000 to Datong, Wang Pu, and Dong Yongwen, to Baoding, and 19,000 to help Ma Shilong, Li Chongzhen, and You Shiwei.

Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng, who suppressed the Rogues in Shanxi and Henan, had to fight to the death with the Rogues because of their insufficient troops, but fortunately, these two people had talents, although they were not enough to eliminate the Rogues, they were able to barely contain the Rogue's offensive.

Zhu Yujian, the king of the Tang Dynasty, asked to lead the troops to the king of Qin, but Chongzhen did not allow it, and Zhu Yujian ignored the ancestral system of "the vassal king is not in charge of the army", recruited troops and bought horses without authorization, and personally led the army of 1,000 people from Nanyang to the north to the king of Qin.

The king of Tang led his men and horses to Yuzhou, and the governor Yang Shenwu played the imperial court, and Emperor Chongzhen was furious and ordered him to return.

Later, Zhu Yujian did not meet the Qing army, but fought with several bandits halfway, fought a few battles, won and lost each other, and finally returned to the Nanyang fiefdom.

According to the regulations of the Ming Dynasty, the vassal king could enjoy himself in the palace, but he could not raise troops to support the general and leave the vassal.

Even if Zhu Yujian's motives are pure, it still makes Emperor Chongzhen feel that this prince has bad intentions, and he can't help Huang Sheng, the king of Qiongya County, who has 100,000 armor, and it is a piece of cake to deal with a Tang King with only a thousand people.

In the autumn of the tenth year of Chongzhen, the emperor decreed the abolition of the Tang King as a concubine, and sent the Jinyi guard to arrest Zhu Yujian and send him to Fengyang for confinement, and Emperor Chongzhen changed the title of his brother Zhu Yuzhen as the Tang King.

At this time, bad news came from Xiangyang, the rogue Zhang Xianzhong's sneak attack on Xiangyang was successful, Zhu Yiming, the king of Xiang, was killed, and the thieves had already conquered the city as if it were devastated.

There are also bad things to come, Zhu Yujian, the Tang King who was demoted to a concubine, was attacked by Zhang Xianzhong's troops on the way to escort Fengyang, and more than 30 captains were killed in Jinyiwei, and the abolished Tang King was nowhere to be found, and he was suspected of dying in the chaos.

New hatred and old hatred poured into his heart, and Chongzhen couldn't wait to eat the skin of Zhang Xianzhong's flesh.

However, the Liukou and Jiannu broke out in a concentrated manner, and the already extremely fragile balance of the Ming Dynasty was broken again, and the swords and soldiers were everywhere and the people were struggling again.

Song Shu, who was in a hurry to ask for help in many places, flew into the capital and fell on the desk of Longshu, and the fold of the salary was several feet high, and the emperor could see Alexander.

The two important ministers Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng, who were worthy of a war, were trapped by food and salary, and the soldiers under their command were not uncommon to see people fleeing from hunger, and their combat effectiveness naturally plummeted.

There is no grain for thousands of miles in Shaanxi, and it is very difficult for the Huang family to transport grain from land to Shanxi, and the manpower and material resources used are unknown, and even then it is inefficient.

The poor food that arrived at the ground was to save the people who were waiting to be fed, and often a night of sticky porridge could pull a Qindi Khan back from the brink of death.

Precious food is used to relieve emergencies, it is impossible to become the supply of hundreds of thousands of Ming troops, Wuyi, Zuo Shouquan of course they are not saviors, their purpose is clear, what they care about is whether the people can get out of Tongguan alive to Haizhou Port.

In this era, it was indeed too difficult to transport grain not along the coast or along the river, so the Huang family decisively gave up free assistance to the officials and soldiers.

Between the lessons of Zuo Liangyu, there are very few officers and soldiers who dare to take grain on the spot, and they have no way to ask the court for food and pay one by one.

However, the imperial court had no money and food, and even the military salary was unsustainable, and Chongzhen, who was not alone in disaster, and Chongzhen, who was struggling alone, felt infinitely desolate.

King Xiang and the abolished King of Tang must always be blackened by the death of someone, the upright Lu Xiangsheng and the slippery Hong Chengchou are actually unable to escape the blame, and in the end, of course, the honest man suffers, Lu Xiangsheng was dismissed from his post and was arrested by Jinyiwei and imprisoned.

Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, Ge Li Yan He Yilong, Lao Hui Hui Ma Shouying and other thieves were interacted with by Jiannu again, and the team suddenly swelled like a snowball.

Everything is a double-edged sword, Huang Sheng ordered his subordinates to spare no effort to save the lives of ordinary people regardless of the cost, resulting in the population base of Shanxi and Henan far greater than history.
