Chapter 670: Luoyang City and King Fu!
The so-called righteous man naturally means that if you find the inner part of the city, you should open the gates of the city. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
And the encirclement point reinforcement, as the name suggests, is to destroy the enemy's supporting army on the way.
The road between Kaifeng and Luoyang is difficult to walk, the horse is difficult to walk, and the artillery is even more difficult to push, once the logistics line of the Ming army is too long, even the Zhu family army can not bear it.
When the time comes, there will be guerrilla fighters everywhere, and as soon as the willpower of the people collapses, the morale will be lost.
Now the down-and-out literati who are attached to Li Zicheng and Gao Yingxiang are slowly increasing, so Niu Jinxing attaches great importance to this chief position. It's just that on the regular Daming side, he lost the opportunity to go out of the way, so he naturally wanted to develop here.
I think that back then, Zhu Yuanzhang was just a monk who asked for food, and he could establish an imperial industry, so some people also had alternative ideas about the thief army.
After another round of discussion, Gao Yingxiang said: "Until the end, attacking the city is the worst plan, but we have to be prepared. One of the two cities of Luoyang and Kaifeng, one of them must be captured, which is the emperor's personal domain. If it is really defeated, it can not only seize a large amount of money and property, enhance the strength of our righteous army, but more importantly, attract heroes from all over the world to join it. ā
All the generals in the hall immediately got up and said in unison: "King Chuang is smart." ā
I have to say that there are also capable people among the thieves, in the original history. Indeed it is!
When the thief army connected Luoyang and Xiangyang, the comparison of strength represented that the balance of strength and the operational initiative of the two sides were transferred to the peasant army. It also makes more people in the world see the weakness in the Ming Dynasty. Since then, there have been many thieves and those who have taken refuge. It's proof!
Kaifeng to Luoyang more than four or five hundred miles, these hundreds of miles of road, the mountains on both sides of the undulating terrain, there is a place for ambush. If the thief army really surrounds the point to send reinforcements, it will definitely be a disaster for the Ming army to encircle Wei and save Zhao!
Soon, the thieves who had discussed the plan began to eat.
Most of them are coarse food and the like, but Li Zicheng and Gao Yingxiang eat very sweetly. They are more diligent and simple on weekdays, they are not good at drinking, and they drink and eat, and they are all the same as ordinary soldiers.
It is in stark contrast to Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai and others. This is one of the reasons why the thieves will obey the two of them!
We can share weal and gloom!
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
On the Zhu Jiajun's side, they finally entered Luoyang City.
Luoshui is wide, and in the past, a ferry was needed, but now it is during a natural disaster, and there are places where the water is not deep, so you can go there directly.
Kang Menghui, the governor of Henan Prefecture, Wang Shaoyu, the chief soldier, and the guerrillas Liu Jianyi and Luo Tai had already greeted and waited outside Nanguan. It seems that the politeness is thorough, but the words that come out make people speechless.
If the Zhu family army is stationed outside the east gate first, wait for an auspicious day to be selected, and then enter, it is really a pit.
When is it all about, and you still talk about feudal superstitious activities?
Chen Yongfu seems to have been involved in the Zhu family's army, and wants to share honor and disgrace, so he is stationed in a camp together.
It wasn't until the next day that they entered the city one after another.
At the entrance, drums sounded, firecrackers exploded, and the soldiers waiting on the shore Wang Yinchang, the prefect of Henan Prefecture Kang Menghui, as well as the Henan general soldier Wang Shaoyu, the guerrilla Liu Jianyi and others, wore ceremonial dresses to welcome.
After some pleasantries, the army entered the city.
The main city of Luoyang is a thriving place with many shops, and it seems that on the surface, it is not much affected by the natural disasters of civil strife.
The roadside was full of onlookers, and people kept coming to see the heroic appearance of this combined force after the victory in Ruzhou. Li Zilong, Liu Yishen, Jiang Hai, Chen Yongfu and others kept arching their hands on the horse and responding. Attracted a piece of amazement!
In fact, the size of Luoyang City is about the same as that of Ruzhou, but the city is higher and thicker, and the city wall is covered with blue bricks, and the wall is more than four zhang high.
There are a total of 39 horse faces, and there are enemy towers on the horse faces to look at the enemy's situation. There are corner platforms and corner towers at the four corners of the city, the field of vision is broad, and the four city gates are built with urn cities, which makes Luoyang City extremely strong. If the defenders were a little more careful, the city would be very difficult to break.
In the history that has not changed in later generations, once Li Zicheng attacked Luoyang, because the city was strong, and it was also a bloody battle for many days, and he was ready to give up for a while. If it weren't for the mutiny of the defenders, Li Zicheng was afraid that he wouldn't be able to capture Luoyang City even if he fought for a year.
The city of Luoyang is guarded, which shows how strong it is.
Just when Li Zilong and the others responded, Wang Shaoyu, the chief military officer of Henan in the back, and others were full of jealousy in their eyes.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the literati had a lot of rice buckets and party disputes, and the martial artists were no better, and they liked infighting, which seemed to have become a tradition, and there were fewer people like Chen Yongfu who were in line with the Zhu family's army. Other generals are mostly people who have not achieved enough things and have more than enough failures!
When the literati are in power, the country is unfortunate, and when the warriors are in the country, the country is equally unfortunate. That's why there is, it's all bad luck for the people!
Only the balance of civil and military, the wisdom of the people, and the rule of law are the king's way.
When it comes to the Luoyang official mansion, the banquet here has begun, judging from the patterns of serving the dishes and accompanying guests, it will really make people mistakenly think that the world is peaceful. The banquet is very rich, and there is Le Ji to help the fun, and the civil officials sing poems, there are really frozen bones on the road, and Zhu Ming's wine and meat make people cold!
After the luncheon, the Zhu family and Chen Yongfu said goodbye, and before they reached the exit, someone came to spread the word, saying that King Fu was invited, and he also invited a group of military generals along the way.
Well, I eat lunch twice in a row.
Soon a group of people came to Dongguan, Dongguan big stone bridge is also known as Huanggong Guangji Bridge, across the Gorilla River, the five-hole stone bridge with a length of 100 meters, it is said that Huang Jin, the eunuch of the Jiajing year, funded the construction, is an important passage to the east into Luoyang City.
Dongguan Dashi Bridge goes north not far away, and you arrive at Ying'en Temple.
Ying'en Temple, commonly known as Dongda Temple, is located at the north end of Shuangming Street in Dongguan, the old city of Luoyang City, and the east of Jiamaying Road.
It was founded in the fourth year of the Ming Xizong Tianqi (1624 AD). The temple was built by Zhu Changxun, the king of Mingfu, for his biological mother Zheng Guifei to "express the loyalty and filial piety of the heart", "the goodness of the heart can also be caused; The heart can be caused, so grace can be welcomed", so it was named "Ying'en".
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Ying'en Temple gradually abandoned, because of disrepair, dilapidated, only a few lonely halls, inscriptions, ancient cypresses and so on. Unfortunately, the few remaining temples were also razed to the ground by Japanese planes during the Japanese invasion of China. On the eve of liberation, the Kuomintang garrison built fortifications here, which caused the remnants of Ying'en Temple to be destroyed again.
In the original history, when Li Zicheng conquered Luoyang. King Fu once fled from King Fu's Mansion to Ying'en Temple to hide, but unfortunately he was later searched by the peasant army and executed in front of the Zhou Gong Temple.
There are many scenic spots and temples in this area, such as the Longcheng Zhu Ying, the Copper Shame Twilight Rain, the Le Ma Listening to the Wind, the Sanxian Temple, Jia Yici, the Luo Temple, and so on.
Walking further on, far away is the Fuwang Mansion.
When Li Zilong, Jiang Hai, Liu Yishen, and others saw the Fuwang Mansion, they couldn't help but sigh with emotion, thinking about a magnificent location.
The high palace wall, the continuous and majestic glazed tiles, the gorgeous courtyard, the wall is high and thick, and those tall stone lions show their might.
It's not a few copies weaker than the palace!
Fuwangfu is a city within a city, with a large number of civil and military officials, soldiers and soldiers. And the Forbidden City of Jingshi is actually the same!
The vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty all had a complete set of specialized institutions, and there were two foreign officials, and there were eight of them. The internal officials have something to serve the department, and there are many scattered officials. The prince may have 360 private schools, and the prince of the county may have 24 private schools.
The civil and military officials under the names of the princes are all paid, and all kinds of people have work and food.
There are four gates in Fuwang's Mansion, and the main gate is called Zhenghua Gate, which is in the wide Zhenghua Gate Square at this time. The officials and generals of Henan Prefecture and the hundred officials of the palace have long been led by the soldier Wang Yinchang and a big fat man wearing a dragon pattern costume, and everyone is welcome here.
Could it be that King Fu is here in person? This is a great honor for the general Ming civil and military!
