Volume 2 The South Chapter 327 Decisive Victory (2)
…… The Taibao sent a minister to report the ...... Listening to Zhu Ci's question, the Qin army messenger replied loudly: "The previous few reports were the number of beheadings and the harvest of the battle, and this time, it was the name of the enemy general. ”
"Okay, and the important generals?" Zhu Ci hated to be extremely excited this time, stood up, stared at the messenger, and shouted: "Say it quickly, don't sell it anymore!" ”
The Ming army and the Qing army were at war, and they never killed any decent generals on the battlefield, Zhu Beile, who founded the country in the early Qing Dynasty, and later the prince and the prince of the county, and the Gushan Ezhen, Meler Zhangjing, have never had a record of dying on the battlefield.
It is no wonder that you rarely win field battles, and most of them are on foot against horse, and if the Qing army is victorious, the Ming army may leave corpses for dozens of miles, and it is common to be chased for days and nights.
Even if the Ming army wins, most of them will defend the city and win, and they will not be able to pursue, of course, they cannot be sure whether they will hurt the enemy generals, so that the number of recorded generals is almost zero.
Today, there is a battle to kill the enemy generals, think about it, spread it, in the north and south of the river, how much impact will it have?
Now the Shishen in the south of the Yangtze River all know that the harm of the Dongyu is far above the peasant army, and since the Wanli period of Shenzong, the Dongyu has been repeatedly defeated, this time the beheading is more than 7,350 levels, and the heads of the Dongyu and the Mongols are more than seventy percent, and there are six or seven percent of the so-called white armor soldiers and the elite of the horse armor of the cavalry battalion, this battle almost abolished the strength of the Qing army of a whole banner, and abolished the elite of two banners!
Imagine the scene on the battlefield, the hideous-faced pigtailed soldiers died on the ground, and the corpses were lying in wait for dozens of miles, how refreshing and worrying it was!
The Qing army was originally more cavalry than infantry, this time it was wrapped in dumplings, it was really a critical moment, after Abatai put all his forces up, Gao Jie led his troops back from Texas, and cooperated with the Han army on the right flank, and first attacked this Qing army.
Seeing such a great chaos in the central Qing army, it was pressed and beaten by the Pingyu army, and the artillery battalion made a detour, and the Qing army was even more scattered, and suffered heavy casualties.
In addition, Zhao Qingyuan's cavalry detoured from the left flank, so the Qing army, which was originally good at cavalry and was best at chasing the Ming army with cavalry after victory, suffered the most serious retaliation.
The corpse from the battlefield in the north of Texas to the south of Texas twenty miles, the Ming cavalry chased all the way, until the night, the next day when the sky was bright, although the body was tired but the spirit was extremely excited, the Ming cavalry set out again, and pursued all the way to the past has been the plains, Zhao County and other Qing army rear cities swept away.
The main force of the Qing army was completely lost, and there was no ability to resist at all, if the Ming army was not restrained and kept north, then the soldiers could directly reach Tianjin!
While heading north, Sun Chuanting did not give up the opportunity to expand the results of the battle, and mobilized the soldiers and horses of Shandong Town all the way to the west to take Linqing, an important military town along the canal.
After the Qing Dynasty, the whole territory of Shandong was not a problem, and after becoming a whole and mastering this section of the canal, the Ming army had the ability to transport troops to the north on a large scale and support logistics, and Beijing was very dangerous at that time.
Of course, this has to be after the Ming army has mastered Henan and Tongguan, otherwise, the danger is mutual, the Ming army can not only go all the way to Beijing Lucheng, but also the Qing army can also draw a half circle from Henan, and cut off the Ming army's northward troops, so Ming Taizu's strategy is to get Shandong, Henan and Tongguan, at that time, Beijing is in the bag.
In view of this, Zhu Ci hated categorically ordered the troops to go north and return to the south, and at the same time ordered Sun Chuanting to carefully inspect the battlefield...... This battle almost completely annihilated all the main forces of the Qing army, except for a few Mongol troops and a very small number of Manchurian troops who ran away, almost none of the Qing troops on the battlefield did not escape, but were killed solidly.
It's easy to catch big fish in such a situation, and now it's time to check the harvest.
Urged by the crown prince, this envoy did not have a panicked expression, on the contrary, he was very proud, and his face was full of joy, this time he looked directly at Zhu Cixi, that is, His Royal Highness the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty...... This victory undoubtedly belongs to the crown prince!
Without the support and determination of the crown prince, there would be no Shandong Town!
There is no crown prince and even Sun Chuanting, let alone Xuzhou Town!
Without the artillery of the Pingyu Army, there would be no way to fight so heartily, not to mention the strong soldiers of the three battalions of the Pingyu Army, what the result of this battle would be like!
This is a victory for the crown prince!
"If you go back to Your Highness, the body of the king of Raoyu County, Abatai, has been found, and the head has also been cut off, and now someone is being sent to the Qingjiang camp!"
"Good, good!"
Zhu Ci was also excited and didn't know how to express it, so he could only high-five him again and again, striding around the hall, and after half a ring, he raised his head and couldn't help laughing.
As a person who is familiar with the history of the Ming Dynasty, of course such an important role as Abatai will not be let go, although in history this person will die of illness next year, but to be able to behead him and wait for his death, that taste is of course two different things, and they are also two completely different states of mind.
"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Chen Mingxia was naturally the fastest to react, and then Zheng Yuanxun and other civil and military officials all stepped forward to congratulate.
As for Wei Yue and other generals, they all had extremely envious expressions on their faces. The Ming and Qing dynasties fought and beheaded the king of the county for the first time, and Abatai was the son of the old slave, and the oldest close clan of Donglu was now the oldest, and it was a very important blow to Dongyu to kill this person.
"There are still Abataizi Belebolo, Zhenguo Gong Yue Le, Gushan Ezhen Huaita, Mel Zhangjing Lashi and others, who also died in the battle, and at this time, the head and the banner of the armor items are listed together, and they are about to be sent to Qingjiang."
Zhu Ci only felt dizzy for a while, and he was almost about to fall down in the temple. Rao is that he has experienced too many major events now, but in the face of such news, he almost can't hold it.
Such a result is equivalent to completely abolishing one of Jiannu's banners!
The elite of the dead battalions such as the Guardian Battalion and the Forward Battalion is far more than one flag!
In the early Qing Dynasty, the princes who could go out of the town and lead the army were one Azig, one Duofeng, one Haoge, and the other was the dying old Abatai.
After Abatai's death, Duofeng had already entered the south of the Yangtze River, and left the old Gushan Ezhen Yechen with the red flag to stay in the south of the Yangtze River, and Hangzhou was guarded by Bellebolo as the general, so that he could return to the dynasty.
At that time, the Qing army had already seized the land south of the Yangtze River and Huguang, and the overall situation was stable, and it was not as tense as it was at the beginning.
In the beginning, there was a serious shortage of manpower, otherwise, how could Dolgon put Haoge on the battlefield in Sichuan again, and asked Haoge to lead the soldiers and horses of the two yellow flags? That is also a measure that there is really no way to make, the lack of people in the early Qing Dynasty, just look at Hauge was once reused, you can know the clues.
This time, even if Abatai is forgotten, a very stable rising star like Bolo was also killed, plus a Prince An Yue Le, who shined decades later, the battle of Texas is indeed too profitable.
Although it cannot be said that one of its arms is broken, because the current Duofeng and Azig are the left and right arms of the Qing Dynasty, and they are the real strength, but this victory can be regarded as a broken palm, without this palm, the overall strategy of the Qing army will inevitably be seriously affected, and on the Qingjiang side, how to take the next step is also very important.
"Your Highness, the minister suggests that you report to Nanjing immediately!"
Chen Mingxia was most happy at this time, and his original choice was really right. Judging from the current state of the country, the signs of the Ming Dynasty's resurrection are too obvious, and the Qing and Shun are still entangled, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army is rapidly restored, even if the Yellow Dragon can not be directly smashed to recover Liaoyang and Shenyang in the future, but the Dongyu is expelled from the pass, it is still very possible to restore all the lost land except Liaodong, and even in the lifetime of the prince, the Ming Dynasty will be rich and strong again, and the world will be reunified, which is not impossible.
Thinking about the age of the prince, everything in the future is indeed a lot of room for development.
At this time, his first thought was naturally to give Nanjing's opponents a deterrent and a real warning.
Don't toss or waste your efforts anymore, the Ming Dynasty can really lead the army to fight and defeat the enemy, such as Li Shimin at the turn of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the general figure is in this Qingjiang camp!
"Yes, we need to report to Nanjing quickly." Zheng Yuanxun also nodded solemnly, and said to Zhu Ci: "Your Highness has worked hard and finally won this great victory, and you should really publicize it." In addition, the minister suggested that there were more than ten battalions of soldiers and horses in the camp, and they must travel north as soon as possible to stabilize the situation in Shandong, and even go straight to the Beijing division. ”
"I mean to have another decisive battle with the slave in Henan, fight across the multi-front, and get the entire territory of Henan and Shandong, and the Jingshi will be at your fingertips."
"This is the old example of my dynasty Taizu, but now the slave is lost, most of the main force in northern Shaanxi and the decisive battle, Duofeng and the first rat at both ends, do not know how to advance and stop, if at this time quickly and directly smash the Beijing Division, Duofeng can only return to the division, and the transfer is in a hurry, which is a good opportunity for my Wang Division to break the enemy."
Zheng Yuanxun's words naturally aroused discussions, but Zhu Ci was the first to calm down.
To repay merit is, of course, to repay merit, and to add more weight to one's own merits. At least, let Nanjing's father know that the current war is also indispensable to him, and those previous thoughts might as well really let go.
To be a real emperor, you must also have real skills.
As for going straight to Beijing, it was too risky, and his previous business was to defend the imperial battle with the Qing army in Huai'an, use various fortresses and Huai River and other river hazards to resist the enemy, and the Qing army had never had the idea of fighting a decisive battle on a large scale.
But the ability of the Pinglu Army that he trained single-handedly was beyond his imagination, whether it was the cavalry battle in Henan or the positional battle in Dezhou, the Pinglu Army had a satisfactory answer.
Despite this, it is still too risky, there are at least more than 20,000 true Manchuria in Duofeng's department, 10,000 or 20,000 Mongolia and Sauron, plus the king of Sanshun, this strength is by no means tens of thousands of Pingyu troops can face off head-on now, and the next strategy will never be to take the initiative to fight with Duofeng.
The Pingyu Army still needs more battles to train itself, and the scale of the Pingyu Army must also be further improved under the current financial and material resources.
After the scattered moon, when there are 100,000 strong soldiers to move north, it will be the time for the real decisive battle!
