Chapter 900: The Situation at This Time



Sun Yuan is now looking forward to what it will be like when the Congreve rocket strikes on the battlefield. The update is so fast.

This time in the West Pavilion, Sun Yuanxing rushed over, thinking that Wolf would surprise him, and also expected that the Minnie gun would be able to equip a large number of troops and crush all the prospects of the enemy. But I don't want to, because of technical limitations, the relationship between mass production and can't give me a 'stick'.

It is undeniable that Sun Yuan was in a very low mood at that time.

But the appearance and actual combat of Congreve rockets made him feel better again. Moreover, he was very satisfied with the production capacity of the Ordnance Bureau.

Roughly calculated, by March, the new army of the Ningxiang Army will be able to have one plate armor per person, and all kinds of 'color' ordnance can also be equipped in place. 、

In real history, the Qing army should have reached Nanjing in April. Today, the Jiannu army is fighting with Li Zicheng in Shaanxi and Shaanxi. After solving the invasion army in Shaanxi, the Qing army should go south to destroy the Ming.

Of course, Sun Yuan would not allow such a thing to happen in this time and space.

"Master Hou, it's such a cold day, it's better to stay in Xiting for one night and leave tomorrow." Guan Tao looked up at the snow in the sky.

"No, isn't it just afternoon, wait for me to ride a fast horse, maybe I can still reach Hai'men County." I heard that the military households over there were mobilizing, and I wanted to go and see how they were recruiting. After going to the sea 'gate', I have to go to Chongming Shasuo. You are my big housekeeper money bag, you have to use money everywhere, you have to work hard for a while, you can run around with me. ”

Guan Tao was taken aback: "Master Hou, it is the duty of the subordinate to die for you." However, aren't you spending the New Year in Tongzhou? ”

"No, the 'Spring' Festival is celebrated every year, and I am not in a hurry to do it this time." Sun Yuan flicked the snow 'flower' on his shoulder with his hand, and muttered: "This year is the biggest challenge for my Ming Dynasty, my Yangzhou Town, my Ningxiang Army, and my grandson." If we can win, the bloodline of my Han family will continue. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to see next year's 'Spring Festival'. Li Chuang is going to be finished, and Shaanxi can't keep it. Once Shaanxi is lost, the entire Henan and the entire Central Plains will be exposed under the iron hooves of Jiannu. I, the Ming Dynasty, will face this unprecedented enemy. ”

In October of this year, Dolgon finally brought the little Manchu emperor Fulin from Shenyang to Beijing. Fu Lin's car drove on the road for three months, and finally entered the largest city in the world. On the first day of October, he was enthroned in the city

。 After the comrades of the Manchurian aristocracy in Kifu, Shandong, and Shanxi gradually stabilized, the Qing Dynasty decided that the time was ripe for the conquest of the whole country, so it decided to march into the army on a large scale.

Because after the occupation of Beijing, the Manchurian aristocracy found that there was such a wonderful city in the world, and they were reluctant to leave after coming. However, at this time, the north was completely ruined, and the northern provinces alone were no longer enough to position the operation of this large reading city. The concept of great unification unique to the Chinese is not just a concept, but has practical economic interests.

As a result, Dolgon decided to divide his troops into two routes, in an attempt to destroy the Li Zicheng regime in Xi'an and the Hongguang regime in Nanjing.

On October 19, on the fourth day of Hongguang's accession to the throne, the Manchu kings Azig, Wu Sangui, and Shang Kexi set out from Beijing and planned to attack northern Shaanxi and then go south to Xi'an. On the way, they marched with all the troops of Xuanfu and Datong, totaling an astonishing 80,000.

On the 25th, Prince Yu Duoduo, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and others led another large army south, preparing to attack Nanming. This group of men and horses was coerced by a large number of troops, as many as 100,000.

But at this time, the Chuang army, which had been beaten by the Qing army, lost its armor and collapsed, but won a big victory in Huaiqing, Henan, and successively captured Jiyuan and Mengxian, and killed the Qing army Admiral Jin 'Yu' He. It is known as the Battle of Huaiqing in history.

When the news reached Beijing, Dolgon was shocked and had to change his operational deployment, ordering Duoduo not to rush south to Jiangnan first, but to go to Henan to rescue Huaiqing first, and then capture Tongguan, and Azig to attack Xi'an, preparing to come to the 'gate' to fight dogs, and completely wipe out the intrusive army in Shaanxi.

In the eyes of the Qing army, Nanming is just like that, but Li Zicheng, who has a lot of soldiers, is worthy of vigilance, if he is not careful, maybe he will really turn the situation over.

I have to say that if the battle of Huaiqing had not attracted Duoduo's main force, and in the face of the Qing army's all-out attack, just a few days after its establishment, the Hongguang regime, which was a mess of chaos, would have been absolutely passive.

Now that the main forces of the Qing army are all gathered in Shaanxi, it objectively gives Hongguang Dynasty a chance to breathe a sigh of relief. At this time, the Ming army was supposed to take advantage of the emptiness of Henan and Shandong to go on a northern expedition. However, at this time, Shi Kefa and the Donglin Party celebrated each other's efforts for the Qing army to pacify the Chuang army and rogues, and there was no motivation for the Northern Expedition at all. Even, Donglin also sent envoys to negotiate peace with the Qing court, and realized the situation of the Northern and Southern Dynasties on the basis of jointly suppressing the Chuang army and Zhang Xianzhong. This is the so-called strategy of borrowing slaves and pacifying the Kou, in which even Shi Kefa also acts as a disgraceful horn. In the face of Li Zicheng, a common enemy, the Ming and Qing dynasties could still be a pair of harmonious neighbors.

At this time, the envoy group should have arrived in Beijing, and I don't think anything good will come of it

Sun Yuan was already preparing for the Northern Expedition, he also knew the ambitions of the Qing army, and he did not take the so-called peace between the two countries seriously, and the preparations that should be made must also be done, in a word: prepare for war.

At the beginning of this month, after the Duoduo army arrived in Huaiqing, the army was defeated and took the initiative to retreat. Jiannu crossed from Mengjin, entered Shaanzhou on the 15th, and arrived at Tongguan on the 22nd.

This was the last time the spies of the Ningxiang Military Reconnaissance Factory sent information from the northwest, and now it is the 'Spring' Festival. If nothing else, by the time the next intelligence comes back, Tongguan should have been lost.

As for the Azig Department of the Qing Army, which was using troops in northern Shaanxi, the intelligence of the reconnaissance factory was only in early January. It is said that Azig's heavy troops have crossed the Yellow River from Baode, Shanxi, and entered northern Shaanxi. After leaving one to besiege Yulin, he led the main force south, captured Mizhi, and began the massacre. Because this is Li Zicheng's hometown, where Jiannu passed, the Han people killed all men and women, old and young. slaughtered a Yulin into a thousand miles of uninhabited white land.

Liang Mancang of the Detective Factory came to say that if he had not gone out, the 'Jiao' warfare that the Detective Factory had established in northern Shaanxi over the years would have been lost in this massacre.

Li Zicheng was attacked by Jiannu with the nation's troops from the north and south, and the fall of Xi'an was inevitable, and there was no luck at all.

In real history, after the Qing army took the whole of Shaanxi, it followed Li Zicheng's rout into Henan and Hubei, and then destroyed the Hongguang regime by the way.

In April of the first year of Hongguang, the army of Jiannu was divided into two routes, one was led by Duoduo, attacked from Guide Mansion in Henan, passed through Sizhou in Anhui Province in the south, crossed the Huai River and then went straight to Yangzhou; The other route was led by Azig, Dengzhou, Henan, into Xiangyang, Jingzhou, Wuchang, Hubei, until Jiujiang, Jiangxi, in addition to defeating the Dashun army led by Li Zicheng, taking advantage of the situation to solve the Ming army of Zuoliang's 'jade' department, and joining forces with Duoduo in present-day Anhui Province.

In addition to these two armies, there was another Qing army led by Gushan Ezhen Zhunta who was originally stationed in Shandong, south to Xuzhou, along the canal by land and water, to collect Suqian, Huai'an, Xinghua, Tongzhou, Rugao and the coastal areas north of the Yangtze River, the target of this Qing army was mainly Liu Zeqing's Ming army.

This time and space has undergone some changes because of the intrusion of Sun Yuan's butterfly, but it is a pity that this butterfly effect is aimed at the Southern Ming Dynasty. Emperor Hongguang, who was supposed to inherit the throne in May this year, sat on the emperor's dragon chair on October 15. Therefore, up to now, the rebuilt Nanming Dynasty is still a mess of 'chaos' and 'chaos', and Donglin and Ma Shiying are in a mess. And the Donglin Party who controlled the government still wanted to send Shi Ji to Beijing to negotiate peace with Jiannu at this time, and it was about a brotherly state, which really made people speechless

。 The gentlemen in the southeast are all overjoyed that Li Zicheng, the **** who was beaten all over the ground by Jiannu, on the contrary, it was Ma Shiying, Lu Jiude and Sun Yuan, the three 'traitors', eunuchs and military ruffians who realized that a great crisis was coming.

In the north, the Qing army, unaffected by the butterfly effect, was still methodically consolidating their rule in Hebei and taking a ferocious offensive against Li Zicheng.

After the Shaanxi War, the Chuang army will be completely exhausted by the Qing army, and the downfall has entered the time. After the Chinese New Year, Li Zicheng's invasion army will not pose any threat to Jiannu.

As a result, Jiannu will naturally set his sights on Nanjing and burn the flames of war to the Jianghuai region.

This is a real battle of national peril, and it is also a national war.

At that time, the entire Manchurian 'Mongolian' Eight Banners, the Han Army Banner, and the New Annexed Army will gather in Jianghuai and Daming for a desperate battle.

Taken together, the total number of the three Qing armies exceeded 200,000, which was all the forces they could mobilize.

At this time, the Hongguang regime of the Southern Ming Dynasty was really a large number of generals on the surface, and the Southern Ming War was in Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and other richest regions in China, and the local garrison troops in each province, plus the four towns in Jiangbei and the Zuoliang 'jade' department in Huguang, amounted to one million. But Sun Yuan knew that the only thing that could really fight was more than 10,000 people and horses in his hands, as for the other town troops...... Let's not talk about it!

Even if the Ningxiang Army expands to 20,000, will it be able to resist the soldiers of the whole country of Jiannu at that time?

There are still more than four months, and maybe it's still too late......

No, no matter what, we have to take the initiative to go on the Northern Expedition and send troops to Henan while Jiannu is still in Shaanxi.

Hearing Sun Yuan muttering to himself, Guan Tao: "Master Hou, what are you talking about, Li Zicheng is going to be finished?" ”

Sun Yuan: "Judging from the situation in Shaanxi, it should be like this. Jiannu will soon come to Jianghuai, and our army is expanding, and I don't know how many days it will take for the troops to form combat effectiveness. So, we don't have much time left, and it doesn't matter if this year is over. Only when there is a country can there be a home, so I can only say sorry to my mother. ”

Guan Tao: "Master Hou, since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both. The old lady is a person who understands righteousness, and she must be able to understand it. ”
