Chapter 537: Purple Mountain Academy Northern War
The Jing sect leader of the Maitreya Sect, many people in Shandong hate him to the bone, and the actual loss caused by the Linqing Dynasty was not large, but it smeared the face of the Shandong public security party who was confident in the strict control, and it was still the early stage of the establishment of the new dynasty, and he was embarrassed in front of the King of Qi, which greatly affected the future future.
Therefore, when this person was arrested, he had already predetermined many punishments, and the punishment for his family and relatives not being free in the Tuntian Grange for generations was set.
Unexpectedly, at the beginning of August, this Jing was released from prison, and some of the remaining backbone of the Maitreya Sect, as well as after the chaos that day, a large number of folk Taoist sects and cult backbones were arrested after the purge and sweep of the areas controlled by the Shandong and Jiaozhou camps.
Many of these cult members were also arrested, and they were all released this time, but it is not necessarily true that they were freed, and all of them were driven to a manor outside Jinan.
The manor is the property of the Inventory Division, and Jiang Xianxuan, the head of the Inventory Division's external operations, has been running over there all day long, and may want to use these people for other purposes, the only thing that is strange is that the Inventory Division's side doesn't seem to pay too much attention to secrecy.
In mid-August, Li Meng, the king of Qi, led his army to the camp set up in Tianjin, before the Pingnan general Ma Gang had already entered Hangzhou, and the Shaanxi general Zhao Neng had also begun to prepare for Sichuan in the Hanzhong area.
To Ma Gang's disappointment, Henan general Chen Liu's movements were very fast, his vanguard had already broken through to the edge of Wuchang Mansion, and the governors and other officials at all levels set up by the Southern Ming in Huguang fled to Jiangxi with Zuo Liangyu, while the civilian officials stayed in the local area and prepared to surrender.
After the fiasco in Zhuxian Town, Zuo Liangyu's team was no longer the original soldiers and horses, but a collection of local tyrant militias and exile troops.
Such a force is also a rabble, in the case of the Jiaozhou battalion troops advancing from the left and right flanks, giving huge pressure, Zuo Liangyu can no longer hold the troops, and the troops under his command either do not listen to the order, or disperse directly, but what makes Zuo Liangyu desperate is that the king of Qi has a clear statement that he does not accept his surrender, and his disposal is beheading.
On the same day in Lanyang County, near Kaifeng City, Zuo Liangyu's slaughter of the city by soldiers and horses completely angered Li Meng, such a beast man, there was no need to stay.
After the Hongguang Emperor of the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty abdicated, according to the common sense of the previous dynasty, the vassal kings in various places always stood up and claimed to be orthodox and enthroned as emperors, but this time, the remaining vassal kings in various places were silent, and those who had a way to go to the area controlled by Shandong with fine and soft gold and silver.
If you covet that momentary reputation, as soon as the Shandong army arrives, I am afraid that it will not be killed, but I am afraid that there will inevitably be a mistake in the chaotic army.
The King of Qi is also magnanimous, and Zhu Cihong, the heir of Chongzhen, also lives a normal life every day under surveillance, and goes to Liu Zongzhou to study every day.
The Jiaozhou battalion had a very strange move in Nanjing, that is, the official and private government contributed money to establish the Purple Mountain Academy, and Liu Zongzhou was the host of this academy, in addition to teaching traditional knowledge, there were also some missionaries and characters similar to the three brothers Sun and Dou, to teach physics, chemistry, geography, astronomy and other special studies.
This Purple Mountain Academy has the official background of the Jiaozhou camp, and at the beginning, there were also reserve officials from the Tuntian Grange in Jiangbei to come to study, which makes people think that this is a place like the Zijian of the New Dynasty, and after entering, they will achieve fame and wealth.
For a time, the scholars in the south of the Yangtze River flocked to it, and as a result, Liu Zongzhou had to set up various thresholds with a few learned Confucians, which could be regarded as slightly stopping this momentum.
The purpose of this academy set up by Li Meng was very simple, to give those idle noble children and wealthy young scholars a place to go, so as not to do something that they did not have and cause trouble for themselves.
At the same time, it can be regarded as setting up such a place to enclose the children of the Zhu family and facilitate surveillance, of course, the current Huaxia is less than the kind of comprehensive university in later generations, and the establishment of this Purple Mountain Academy also has this nature, and the process of Li Meng's unification of the world is orderly and very peaceful.
There is no destruction in the place, many of the so-called famous scholars and Confucians in the late Ming Dynasty have not died out because of military disasters, these people often can't turn their brains, and there are many people who claim to be loyal ministers and righteous sons, these people also have some influence in the local area, and there will be trouble if they talk nonsense.
The establishment of such academies also encircled these learned people, so that they could be tossed around in the academies, so as not to cause trouble among the people.
Fifty years later, Purple Mountain Academy is the largest and strongest university in the whole of Asia, even the Arab region and Europe have many people come here to study, many university scholars from all over the world have crossed the ocean to come here to study knowledge, delve into topics, in many Asian countries there is a clear text, after the Purple Mountain Academy is completed, after returning to China, it is equivalent to a meritorious alternate official, directly can enter the candidate.
Moreover, officials with this background are often promoted quickly, because it is difficult to enter this school, and non-elites cannot.
The atmosphere of inclusiveness and freedom of the Purple Mountain Academy has become a beacon for the natural and social sciences all over the world, but some people sarcastically say that the freedom of the Purple Mountain Academy is only the freedom of the academy, and after going out, everything will continue as usual.
For this academy, there is another interesting thing, that is, the proportion of professors in each college of the Purple Mountain Academy, the surname Zhu is particularly large, which is why most of the children and sons of the former emperor studied in it.
There are some reasons, since Hongzhi, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty may not be very good as an emperor, but he can do other things but have great achievements, such as the carpenter work of the Apocalypse, the multi-faceted involvement of Zhengde, the Taoist alchemy of Jiajing, and the princes and nobles of the feudal lords around the country were held back in the city and did not come out.
The hobbies and interests of these people in the Purple Mountain Academy have become knowledge that can be specialized, and they are more and more developed, which is also unexpected.
Before Li Meng set off, he received a message from the spies of the Investigation Division in Liaozhen, and when Li Meng arrived in the Cangzhou area, the news from the North Korean side also came back from the sea.
The Liaoning general Wang Hai launched his first offensive against the Manchus, and since he landed at Seoul with his army, he has been on the defensive, albeit gradually advancing northward.
The situation of the Manchu Tatars in Liaodi became more and more difficult, and the continuous offensive of the Mongol tribes in the grasslands of western Liaoxi was launched, so that the Manchus drew more forces to defend in western Liaoning, while the forces in eastern Liaodong were gradually thin, and the balance of forces was more and more favorable to Shandong.
Liaoning general Wang Hai led 10,000 soldiers and horses from Anzhou, gradually advancing, as a result, after Yizhou crossed the river, the soldiers and horses of the Manchu Qing Tatars reacted, and now in order to prevent the enemy from Jinzhouwei, Fuzhou Wei and Gaizhouwei from coming from the sea, Duoduo and Aobai in this direction, must put the soldiers and horses in Phoenix, that is, Dingliao Zuowei, instead of facing the front line of Korea.
In Phoenix, they have limited forces at their disposal to be able to take care of both directions and be ready to maneuver to the maximum extent at any time.
Now it is different from the past, in the past, in Heilongjiang, Ningguta and Jilin several places to draw flags, the flag of each flag in the ancestral place of the population is very willing to come, after all, the chance of taking the future in Liaozhen is much better than in the old forest, and there are Han people to help farm.
I have the opportunity to follow the masters to Daming and Mongolia to fight a few times, gold and silver, livestock, slaves and other things don't have to worry, but now it is completely different, going out to the Ming Dynasty, nearly 40,000 died, and the real Eight Banners alone died nearly 10,000, and the west and north of Shengjing and the Mongols fought to the death non-stop, each time although there were not many people killed, they couldn't stand up to such a fight all year round, and now even if they got military merits, it was no good.
If you don't loot, just close this little thing outside, then what else can be taken out and divided, there can only be an empty space, and the benefits in hand are getting less and less. Moreover, on the side of Liaozhen, the Han people kept running towards North Korea, and the Mongols kept running towards the grassland, and the work of charging into battle became more and more self-sufficient.
Those princes of Baylor, each of them eat and drink spicy silk in Shengjing, we can't get any benefits, why fight, can hide first.
This situation brought about that even the lower-level bannermen of Shengjing and Liaoyang were unwilling to stay here, and tried to go back to their hometown, and the regent Dolgon had no choice but to use a high-pressure policy to force himself to recruit soldiers, which provoked a backlash.
Under the condition that the morale of the people has plummeted, Duoduo and Ao Bai dealt with the Korean garrison army that had been holding back for another winter and was eager to fight, and the results of the war can be imagined.
Duoduo and Ao Bai are both so-called fierce generals, in such a demoralized situation, if you want to win, you have to take the lead, the Tartars' bows and arrows can't compare the range with Shandong's firearms, all you can count on is the cavalry to rush in to see if you can break the opponent's infantry formation.
There was no suspense in the war, the two sides met on the plains, and the Manchu Tatars barely fought on the inner line, but they probably used fewer people than the Korean garrison.
In the busy sea supply of Shandong and Korea, the Korean garrison was equipped with a large number of new artillery, and this battle began with artillery bombardment, and then the barely assembled Tatar cavalry rushed to the formation of the Korean garrison in the rain of guns and guns.
In many cases, courage on the battlefield was not enough, and the battle ended quickly, the cavalry scattered and fled, the foot soldiers were killed and wounded, and Prince Duoduo and the deputy commander were killed in the artillery fire......
