Chapter 123: Yue Zhongqi
Tan Feng was busy in the northeast with the reform of the military and social system and organizational system, because Tan Feng knew that his greatest merit lay in this aspect, not in the quality of weapons and the army, so he was reforming as soon as possible. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
But in the same way, the Manchu court was not idle, and after the establishment of the military aircraft department of Emperor Yongzheng, it really played its due role. It greatly strengthened the coordination role between the various departments of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so that the Manchu administrative system really began to speed up, which was also his advantage. The Manchus began to draw soldiers from all over the country to prepare for war in the future.
"Chenyue Zhongqi, long live my emperor long live, long live, long live!" Yue Zhongqi took the initiative to kneel down and said.
Emperor Yongzheng took the initiative to say: "Flat! β
Yue Zhongqi was also very nervous, this time Yongzheng asked him to come back from the position of governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, and he actually heard a shocking news. In the northeast Manchurian area, a rebel army was actually set off, and this rebel army actually occupied Eastern Mongolia and Northeast Manchuria. This made Yue Zhongqi completely blinded, this is too funny, right?
You must know that in the past, the Han rebellions were mainly in the south, even if a small number were in the north, it was impossible to rebel in the most unlikely northeast and Manchuria? This time this situation really happened, which made Yue Zhongqi feel incredible. But something has happened, so that Yue Zhongqi can only return to the capital as soon as possible, because Yongzheng has already decided to let him lead the troops to fight against Tan Feng.
"Dongmei (Yue Zhongqi), I asked you to return to Beijing this time, I hope you can lead the troops, go to Manchuria, and recover the land of Longxing in the Qing Dynasty, as well as the mausoleum of the ancestors. Dongmei, do you know why I chose to let you send elite soldiers from the Northwest over? Because this Tan Feng is more terrifying than Zhungeer, they will become a big problem for our Qing Dynasty. Even, compared to them, Jungar is just a disease of ringworm and scabies. Emperor Yongzheng said.
Yue Zhongqi asked instead: "Your Majesty, if this Tan Feng is really smart, he shouldn't rebel in Manchuria." It was the land of the ancestors' dragons, how could he rebel there? β
Yongzheng finally sighed and said: "Yes! At first, I didn't quite understand it, but after thinking about it for a while, I realized that he was a really smart person! When ordinary people hear about our Manchuria, they will subconsciously think that it is our land of Longxing, and they are all banner people in the northeast, and it is impossible to rebel. But in fact, on the contrary, most of the flag people in the Northeast have already followed us into the customs, and there are not many flag people in the Northeast. β
"Even, although Manchuria is our land of Longxing, but it is not good, the emperor is far away, and the bannermen there have long been out of the battle formation, and most of them are not real soldiers, and they have long lost their combat capability. This can also be explained by the fact that the bannermen under Fu Erdan were defeated so easily. The banner people in the Northeast have long been ordinary people, except for the army in name, but their strength is not strong. The so-called born of sorrow, Manchuria is too safe, the Russians in the north are not under much pressure, and there is little supervision from us, so it is natural that they will be easily negligent. β
"As for saying that there are many people in the Manchurian Banner, this is not necessarily true. Because since I entered the customs in the Qing Dynasty, a large number of flag people have been brought in. On the contrary, there was a time when the first emperor announced a policy that anyone who brought 500 families to Manchuria could be made a magistrate and a military attachΓ© a garrison. At that time, a group of Han people were sent to Manchuria, and when I entered the customs of the Qing Dynasty, these Han people did not have deep feelings for our Qing Dynasty, so they were rashly sent to our Manchuria. β
"But Manchuria is so vast that our Qing Dynasty is not really able to rule effectively. The local people are almost laissez-faire and have no real rule, so for so many years, there are by no means a few Manchurian Han people who do not have a deep affection for our Qing Dynasty. β
"As for the rest, our Manchuria is also a place of exile for criminals. A large number of criminals and the descendants of criminals, all of whom lived in Manchuria, were originally exiled for generations, and they did not have a deep affection for our Qing Dynasty, and they did not feel guilty about following the rebellion. In addition, Manchuria has a difficult life, and the people must be fierce, so it is a good place for soldiers. β
"Another point is even more problematic, the criminals exiled in the past in our Great Qing Dynasty are actually not only those extremely vicious criminals, but also many literati. There are still a lot of these literati, once they are used by traitors, it is easy to build their own official palace, and they have perfect rule, unlike the literati in the Guan, who have already recognized my Qing Dynasty, on the contrary, many literati outside the Guanxi are nostalgic for their homeland. Even if you don't feel nostalgic for your homeland, you also have no feelings for our Qing Dynasty. β
"Manchuria is empty, and many people can ride horses. Even more terrifying was the proximity to Mongolia, where they could get a large number of horses as long as they conquered it. With horses, they can borrow the vast plains of Manchuria to swim around in action and warfare, entangled with us. β
"So, our Northeast Manchuria is really a good place to rebel!"
Hearing Yongzheng's last sentence of "self-deprecation", Yue Zhongqi really understood why Tan Feng chose to rebel in Northeast Manchuria. Ordinary people may think that Tohoku is not suitable for rebellion, but if you carefully analyze the situation, it is the opposite, and it is even more suitable for rebellion than Kannai. The important thing about rebellion is actually to make people's hearts. The Han people in Guannai had long been accustomed to the rule of the Manchus, and had long since returned to the Manchus.
It's impossible to rebel with just one mouth. On the contrary, the general people outside the Guanxi think that there are very few Han people, after all, in the name of Manchuria, they seem to think that they are all Manchurians. But on the contrary, there are still a lot of Manchurian Han people, even many times more than the Manchus. What's even worse is that these Han people did not accept the direct rule of the Manchus for a long time, and the Manchus were also negligent in management, which caused these Han people to have no deep feelings for the Manchu regime. In addition, the climatic conditions in the northeast have created a strong folk style, which is very suitable for forming an army of soldiers. There are war horses in Eastern Mongolia, and as long as Mongolia is conquered, it will not be a problem.
"Dongmei, why I said that this Tan Feng is the biggest threat to my Qing Dynasty, this is not without reason. He knows me too well about the Qing Dynasty and even my Eight Banners. He knew very well the situation of our Qing Dynasty, and even the Manchurian Han people, who were unknown to ordinary people, were the vast majority, and even the policies that I abolished when the Qing Dynasty abolished could be used. What's even more terrifying is that he is familiar with our Qing Dynasty's methods of ruling Mongolia, so he has taken advantage of them. β
"On the surface, Tan Feng is at most a general of an army, and he is powerful at most. However, I obviously saw that Tan Feng was completely aimed at the biggest weakness of my Great Qing Dynasty, and even aimed at the biggest loophole of my Great Qing Dynasty. Even before that, I never imagined that there would be such a big hole in our Longxing Land of the Great Qing Dynasty that could be drilled. β
"There are many Han people in Manchuria, and the people are fierce, but our banner people are empty and weak. In this way, as long as the bannermen of our Great Qing Dynasty are annihilated, it is equivalent to completely occupying Manchuria. This vision beyond ordinary people is more terrifying than ordinary anti-thieves. He does things and dares to break through more. He actually gave up the common way of rebellion of the Han people, gradually developed and slowly accumulated strength, but let go of etiquette, righteousness and shame, and was actually the same as in the early days of the founding of the Qing Dynasty...... The same depends on looting for a living. β
Yue Zhongqi then asked: "Your Majesty, even if you draw one Han from Manchuria according to ten dings, it will only be tens of thousands of troops. Then our hundreds of thousands of troops attack, isn't that the top of Mount Tai? β
Emperor Yongzheng pointed to the side and said, "Fu Erdan, come and talk about it!" β
Fu Erdan stood up, he had been in the prison of the Zongren Mansion these days. He didn't dare to go out, because he knew that once he left the Zongren Mansion, he would definitely die. Because the relatives and friends of the 30,000 bannermen who were killed and captured are old, which one doesn't want to shoot his black gun? So he didn't dare to leave the Zongren Mansion and the emperor's "protection".
"General Yue, I hope you don't despise Tan Feng, a traitor, you can't take this traitor too seriously. This traitor is as cunning as oil, and even uses almost any means in order to achieve victory. If it was another Han Chinese, when I read the edict in the Qing Dynasty, I would definitely be very taboo to kneel, even if I wanted to kneel, it would be twisted and pinched. But this Tan Feng is really ruthless enough, in order to deceive me, he knelt down without any hesitation, and even called himself a slave who was shameless. In order to achieve his goal, this Tan Feng can even tolerate the humiliation of his crotch. β
"As a result, I was deceived by him!"
Yue Zhongqi then asked: "General Fu Erdan, you are also a veteran of the battlefield, why are you so gullible about him?" In war, it is not uncommon to deceive people, how can you be deceived so easily. β
Fu Erdan even smiled bitterly and said: "I'm on guard, I even ordered the Eight Banners troops to keep an eye on them at any time." I also watched them give up their vigilance and combat vigilance. But the Eight Banners did not give up any vigilance, and were still staring at them. β
Yue Zhongqi wanted to say something, but Fu Erdan immediately said, "General Yue, I know what you want to say. Things are so weird, even if I am sure again and again, this Tan Feng's army has indeed entered a state of peace. However, in less than ten hours, he was stunned and changed from a posture of peace to a posture of war. It took less than half an hour for their soldiers and horses to turn from peace to battle! β
"In less than half an hour, even if we Eight Banners were on guard all the time, we still couldn't outpace them. Although I had already ordered to watch out for them, it was all in vain. Because even if we are staring at them, we are still not as fast as them. This is really the speed of the soldiers, I look at me like this, I obviously let people stare at them at any time, I have obviously ordered the Eight Banners to take the initiative to attack, but they are still not as fast as them. It's like I punched first, but my fist just moved slightly, and the opponent's uppercut was already hitting my head. This speed, no matter how carefully I made a plan, was cut off by the opposite room first, and everything was useless. β
Yue Zhongqi's face really changed, as a veteran of the battlefield, of course he understood that combat and Hua were important. A veteran's battle plan, maybe the plan will be excellent. But if the execution of the soldiers under his command is not strong, it will be in vain. Isn't it in vain that a plan is made wildly, but in the end it cannot be executed?
During the Song Dynasty, there was actually no shortage of excellent combat and Chinese, but there was a lack of excellent combat army. During the Song Dynasty, many battle plans were very good, but the internal civilian suppression caused the quality of the army below to be worrying. As a result, one excellent combat plan after another could not be implemented at all.
Many times it is not that there are no famous generals, but that the troops are unable to perform your excellent operations and Hua. Fu Erdan's ability, Yue Zhongqi also believes. However, Fu Erdan's battle plan was not even completed at the beginning, and was cut off by the other party first. Well, maybe Fu Erdan's plan is perfect, very good, and even if it is carried out according to the plan, it may really be able to completely annihilate Tan Feng.
However, it is useless, because your plan will not be carried out at all, everything is in vain, and there is an egg!
"So, this is the most terrifying thing about Tan Feng's rebels. Although they are small in number, they are very fast! Even if they are really at peace, if they want to turn from peace to war, it will take less than a day. And we, although we seem to have a huge army, even if we have a well-thought-out plan, it is impossible to carry it out. Because our plan has long been cut off by the other party. β
Yue Zhongqi finally said: "Your Majesty, if it is as General Fu Erdan said, this Tan Feng is definitely the biggest enemy of our Qing Dynasty. If we don't eliminate them as soon as possible, if Rong Chen says something that doesn't matter, I'm afraid I will be ...... I'm afraid ......"
Yue Zhongqi still didn't dare to say that word, but Yongzheng understood the meaning. Yongzheng didn't blame Yue Zhongqi, because in fact, he thought the same way. Tan Feng's methods are more terrifying than any rebel.
"Dongmei, what do you want this time? I will try my best to satisfy you, as long as you can annihilate Tan Feng, I can do my best to satisfy you. As long as you annihilate Tan Feng, I can make you a first-class duke! Emperor Yongzheng said.
Yue Zhongqi was not happy, because he knew that it was not so easy to conquer Tan Feng this time. This Tan Feng is not only a master of strategy, but also a super genius in terms of setting up the military system. Don't look at Tan Feng's army, there may not be much, but with his strong execution, it should not be underestimated. Especially if you have a large number of people, no matter how good the plan is, if you can't implement it and are robbed by others, then no matter how good the military battle plan is, it will be useless!
Therefore, it is impossible to pay too much attention to Tan Feng.
