Chapter 203: Borrowing a knife to kill
In the Yingzhou Mansion, Huang Taiji is drinking ginseng tea, since Mang Gurtai was captured alive, Huang Taiji vomited blood once, Huang Taiji's body gradually improved, but Huang Taiji's body still needs to be recuperated.
Huang Taiji had already received Hauge's recital, saying that he had mastered the Zhenglan Banner smoothly. Zhenglanqi sent 10,000 troops this time, and now there are more than 7,000 people, and these casualties have little impact on Zhenglanqi's combat capability.
As for Dolgon's left army in one or two, Huang Taiji also felt that it was okay, in fact, Huang Taiji came to Daming this time mainly to loot, and he didn't want to attack the Daming Jingshi now, Huang Taiji did not carry artillery this time, and attacked the Daming Jingshi with a large number of personnel, and the casualties could go to the sea, which was not the result that Huang Taiji wanted.
There are not many artillery on the city wall of Beijing, the city wall is also very tall, and there are many defenders in the city. In Chongzhen's four years of Jiannu, there were not many traitor troops used as cannon fodder, and there were only 60,000 Mongolian cavalry.
Therefore, attacking a fortified city like Beijing can only be filled by human life, not to mention that there is a tiger army in Tongzhou City that can annihilate 2,000 Manchurian warriors in a field battle, and Huang Taiji will not go all out to attack Beijing.
Huang Taiji fanned around Beijing, mainly to intimidate Chongzhen, and in addition, to better rob, if possible, to force Chongzhen to sign an alliance under the city. This is all Huang Taiji's plan.
In fact, there is another purpose, this purpose is for Fan Wencheng to analyze Huang Taiji, Fan Wencheng built yì Huang Taiji, this time to enter the customs, looting is one aspect, and the other focus is to pay attention to the annihilation of the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty.
Why did Fan Wencheng build like this, Fan Wencheng is a Han Chinese, and he also knows the situation in the Ming Dynasty very well, and at the same time he knows the real situation of Jiannu, how many people are there in total? A population of 1.2 million people stood up to the sky. The total number of troops is only 120,000, and the reserve force is about 60,000.
And the Ming Dynasty has a population of 100 million, and if Jiannu wants to live in the Central Plains, it is necessary to let the beacon of rebellion in the Ming Dynasty continue, and the peasant army at this time is not the opponent of the Ming official army, Fan Wencheng's idea is that Jiannu annihilated the elite army of the Ming Dynasty. So that Da Ming can't take out a decent army to exterminate the thieves.
Fan Wencheng's plan is vicious! How the thieves rebelled, the erosion was the Ming Dynasty, the destruction was also the place of the Ming Dynasty, and the cost was the comprehensive national strength of the Ming Dynasty.
Hong Chengchou in history beat Li Zicheng to only eighteen horses, and the result! Houjin immediately besieged Jinzhou, and Chongzhen transferred Hong Chengchou and the army he led to Guanwai, and Hong Chengchou also lost his teacher and humiliated the country.
Li Zicheng was able to get out of this situation and then develop again. It can be said that if it were not for Jiannu's continuous annihilation of the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty outside the pass, it would be strange that Li Zicheng could have succeeded.
This strategy is Fan Wencheng's plan, the eight traitors in history send intelligence to Jiannu at any time, they are clear about the situation in the Ming Dynasty, as long as the rebellious thieves are on the verge of extinction, Houjin will either enter the prison or attack Jinzhou, anyway, it is to transfer the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty to the outside of the pass to eliminate them.
Sadly, Chongzhen is still constantly being fooled. As a result, all the armies that could fight in the Ming Dynasty were buried.
Chongzhen is diligent and diligent, but he is the emperor. The leader of the Ming Dynasty, this strategic decision must grasp the right direction. But Chongzhen's decision-making was a continuous mistake, basically not correct, the Ming Dynasty died, Chongzhen was the most responsible, and he finally hanged the coal mountain. It's also self-inflicted.
Look at how Chongzhen dealt with military affairs, there were thieves at home, and there were slaves abroad, when Daming was in Chongzhen, he was no longer vigorous. At this time, can you deal with two enemies at the same time?
It's like a patient who wants to throw two punches at the same time and knock down two strong enemies in front of him, it's impossible! What is wrong with Chongzhen's strategy? All the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty, how many were annihilated when they drove outside the pass, and the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty were buried by dividing five by two, and they also formed a warlord group in western Liaoning, which required the imperial court to allocate four or five million taels of silver every year.
Saying that Chongzhen is a commander at the level of a company commander is to promote Chongzhen, (the fallen leaves are Chongzhen powder, but what Chongzhen does is really useless!! )
Most of the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty were wiped out by Jiannu, what to do to exterminate the thieves? I can only watch the thieves gradually sit up. Chongzhen wanted to kill the thief and Jiannu together, but one of them didn't die, but killed himself, who is to blame? -- Chongzhen himself, his strategy is useless, and he cannot escape the blame for the destruction of the country in China.
In addition, it is the help of traitors, these people are really killed 10,000 times, if there is no Fan Wencheng to give advice, and the eight traitors to provide intelligence, can Jiannu have such an accurate and unmistakable strategy? That's absolutely impossible.
Huang Taiji took a sip of ginseng tea comfortably, and then asked Fan Wencheng, who was standing beside him:
"Mr. Fan, what's the important news these days?"
"Emperor Qi, the Manchurian warriors attacked the city and pulled out the village, and learned from the captured puppet Ming officials that the three elite troops of the puppet Ming have gone north to King Qin, namely Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army, Qi Jin's Qi family army, and Qin Liangyu's white pole soldiers, as long as the emperor annihilates all these three troops, the puppet Ming will have no more soldiers to fight.
Then the emperor can return to the gate with the plundered population and wealth, and quietly wait for the collapse of the Ming Dynasty, even if there are hundreds of millions of people in the False Ming, the scourge of the thieves can hollow out the False Ming and make it a hollow dead tree that is on the verge of death. ”
Several Baylors of Jiannu were very contemptuous of Fan Wencheng, but Huang Taiji relied on Fan Wencheng very much, and Fan Wencheng also tried his best to assist Huang Taiji and give him advice.
Fan Wencheng's plan of "borrowing a knife to kill" has surpassed other previous "borrowing a knife to kill" scheme, and Fan Wencheng's "borrowing a knife to kill" strategy has been given a new content. Fan Wencheng deserves to be the descendant of Fan Zhongyan, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty and Ming Dynasty, but because he was not reused, he took the initiative to take refuge in Jiannu and betrayed his motherland, which was destined for Fan Wencheng to be nailed to the pillar of shame in history for thousands of years.
"Mr. Fan is right, when these three troops come, I will order them to be exterminated, but the situation of the Tiger Ben Army is not very clear, and they will only hide in Tongzhou and the Pseudo-Ming Jingshi, so there is no chance to annihilate them in this time, I can only find a way on Jinzhou, as long as I surround Jinzhou, Chongzhen Xiao'er will definitely send the Tiger Ben Army to die outside the Guan, and I will be magnanimous once, so that those Han dogs of the Tiger Ben Army can live for a few more days."
"Your Majesty Xià Shengming ......" Fan Wencheng is also Han! Why? Don't ask me why, the traitor's mind can't be guessed.
"Report ...... Urgent ......"
A Jiannu waiter hurriedly rushed into the festival hall, and Huang Taiji couldn't help but scold:
"You minion, what are you calling out? What's the speed of reporting. ”
"Whoop...... More than 30,000 Ming troops were found forty miles away from Yingzhou, and in order to see their banner clearly, two teams of scouts were lost. ”
"Revisit."
"Chirp ......" (Hearing this, the fallen leaves are covered in goosebumps, hey!) )
…… (To be continued......)
