Chapter 1011: Comparison of Deployments

After the Jiangning battalion occupied Fuzhou and Xuanzhou and other places, Su Tiancheng once asked the imperial court to appoint officials, but unfortunately, no one in the imperial court wanted to go to Fuzhou and Xuanzhou and other places, here is always threatened by war, more dangerous than Liaodong, the officials in the imperial court, more or less have some relationship, some officials who lack relations, would rather resign than go to Fuzhou and Xuanzhou and other places, and finally this problem was put in front of Su Tiancheng. Laizhou and Fuzhou and other places sent some officials over. In the past, Su Tiancheng was worried that such a practice might make some adults in the court suspicious and slanderous, but now it has become a favorable condition.

Because Su Tiancheng emphasized the implementation of the policy of treating the people well, Fuzhou and Dengzhou and other places were unusually calm, and the people began to fully support the Ming court in the shortest possible time, and even the Manchu people living in these places also believed that the government was sympathetic to the people and was dedicated to doing things for the people, so the mass foundation of Jiangningying in this generation was very good.

When it came time to conquer the post-Golden Tartars, all this became an advantage.

This is also where the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion admired Su Tiancheng, they once felt dissatisfied with the preferential treatment of the Manchurians, but the reality shows that everything Su Tiancheng did was correct and very far-sighted.

After Qu Qingze returned to Dengzhou, it was impossible to rest, he followed the former army to Fuzhou, the important task is to prevent the leakage of the news of the army's conquest, this is a more difficult task, the large-scale transfer of the Jiangning battalion, the common people must be aware of it, if someone specifically leaks this news, for the Jiangning battalion's campaign deployment, it will definitely be unfavorable.

Favorable conditions also exist. Houjin Tatars already knew that the Ming Dynasty was about to launch a large-scale attack, and the movement of the army was within the normal range, not to mention that the mobilization of the Liaodong army had already been carried out. The post-gold tartar is also closely watched.

The mass base in Fuzhou and Xuanzhou and other places is very good, and Qu Qingze, who is engaged in intelligence work, fully feels that through the intelligence network densely spread in Fuzhou and Xuanzhou and other places, he knows the demands of the common people, and hopes that the Ming court can completely consolidate these places and not continue to be occupied by the Houjin Tartars, and the common people have put such demands into action, and the chiefs and heads of villages and towns. Always pay attention to the actions of some key personnel, if the performance of these people is slightly abnormal, they will come forward to inquire, and if they find a problem, they will immediately send it to the government.

With such a mass foundation, Qu Qingze was much more relieved, and he was even clearer. This is the credit of Su Tiancheng, once upon a time. For the needs of intelligence work, he suggested that in Dengzhou, Xiuyan, Xuancheng and Xuanzhou, a large-scale combing of the spies of the Houjin Tartars should be carried out, but Su Tiancheng did not agree and resolutely did not agree to harass the people.

It was originally very hard work, because of the good mass base. In a short period of time, it became much easier, and it is almost certain that the Houjin Tartars could not get any information in Fuzhou and other places. Unless they simply exclude scouts for scouting.

The actions of the Ming army in Liaodong were all under the attention of Huang Taiji, Fan Wencheng and others, and the campaign deployment was completely determined, but this did not mean that the intelligence work was not important, on the contrary, at this time, if you want to implement the campaign deployment more well, you need intelligence to support it.

The key direction of the Ming army's offensive is in the direction of Liaodong, which is the unified understanding of the Manchu nobles of the Qing Dynasty, so there is no doubt about the deployment of defense in Guangning and Xipingbao, but Huang Taiji will not be satisfied with just defending, focusing on defense in the direction of Liaodong, and attacking in the direction of Haizhou.

The loss of Fuzhou and Xuanzhou and other places has always been Huang Taiji's heart disease, although he does not attach great importance to Fuzhou and Xuanzhou and other places, from the strategic position, these places are not as good as Liaodong, but once the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty launched a decisive battle, the status of Fuzhou and Xuanzhou is particularly critical, these places, involving the safety of Shenyang.

The defensive deployment has long been implemented, and for the defense in the eastern direction of Liaodong, Dolgon is the commander-in-chief, and Dai Shan is the deputy commander-in-chief.

This arrangement, somewhat beyond everyone's expectations, it is said that Dai Shan should be the commander-in-chief, Dolgon is the deputy commander-in-chief, whether in terms of qualifications or identity, it should be Dai Shan to serve as the commander-in-chief, even in terms of combat ability, Dai Shan galloped on the battlefield, bravely killed the enemy, Dolgon was still a child, and Dai Shan made great contributions to the strength of the Qing Dynasty.

But Huang Taiji has his own considerations, since the Zhenghong Flag suffered a fiasco in Xuanzhou, Dai Shan's understanding has changed greatly, this change, there are good aspects, but there are also unfavorable aspects, Dai Shan has become more cautious, especially when the grassland expedition, lost some fighters, this is a stagnant phenomenon, the defense of Liaodong, involving the overall campaign deployment, must be brave and strategic, too cautious is definitely not good, so Huang Taiji's considerations, or from the Qing Dynasty as a whole.

As for the offensive deployment in the direction of Haizhou, Huang Taiji is another consideration, in Huang Taiji's view, the direction of Haizhou is more important, the defense of Liaodong is stable, there is no matter of active attack, holding is victory, but the direction of Haizhou is different, it is necessary to launch an offensive, this is also the need of campaign deployment, blindly defending, there will be more and more difficulties, but if the offensive is victorious, it can change the entire situation.

In the direction of Haizhou, Zilharang is the commander-in-chief, and Duoduo is the deputy commander-in-chief.

This arrangement was also beyond everyone's expectations, and most of them believed that the commander-in-chief should be Duoduo, after all, Duoduo was on expeditions all the year round, and Zierharang was more often in Shenyang to assist Huang Taiji in governing the affairs of the imperial court.

Again, it is the deployment of Shenyang and Liaoyang, Haoge is responsible, and this time to meet the attack of the Ming court, Huang Taiji is the marshal, Haoge is the deputy marshal, at a very moment, Haoge can exercise his power to make necessary adjustments and deployments to the troops stationed in Liaodong and Haizhou.

Azig was finally left in Shenyang and did not have any combat missions.

Hauge and Fan Wencheng knew very well that Huang Taiji made such an arrangement to prevent Dolgon and Duoduo from grasping more and greater power, and Hauge's position must be stable. There can be no problems.

Huang Taiji arranged it like this, painstakingly, the battle achieved a decisive victory, Haoge has indelible credit, the battle appeared unfavorable, Huang Taiji personally took responsibility, and Haoge has no direct relationship.

Huang Taiji made such a deployment, most of which was his own consideration, but there was also Fan Wencheng's suggestion.

Fan Wencheng's important energy, almost all in the intelligence work, but also to undertake the heavy responsibility of assisting Haoge, every intelligence analysis, according to the requirements of Huang Taiji, Fan Wencheng first to Haoge report, put forward his own ideas, in this process, the two will discuss, Haoge will put forward different opinions, the final analysis results, report to Huang Taiji, Huang Taiji convened everyone, and finally determined the relevant deployment.

In this process, Haoge's insight gradually increased, and his grasp of the overall situation began to appear.

After becoming the crown prince, Hauge began to keep a low profile, which was very different from his previous attitude.

The position of the crown prince is not so easy to sit on, after all, there is the heroic and wise Huang Taiji above, and there are Dolgon and Duoduo below, and if you don't do it well, it will cause a lot of punishments, power is a deterrent on the one hand, but more importantly, it is the embodiment of your own ability.

Of course, Hauge can't always be low-key, in this campaign deployment, Hauge put forward the most critical suggestion, that is, to launch an attack from the direction of Haizhou, the defense of Liaodong direction, has been clear, Dolgon led the soldiers of the white flag, plus the soldiers of the Han Eight Banners, the Yellow Banner and the White Flag, part of the Han army, a total of 100,000 people, stationed in Guangning, Dai Shan led the Red Flag soldiers, plus the Han Eight Banners of the Red Flag, the Red Flag and the White Flag soldiers, a total of 90,000 people, stationed in Xiping Fort, These 190,000 people are enough to ensure that Liaodong is defended. In the direction of Haizhou, Zierharang and Duoduo led the soldiers with white flags and blue flags, including the soldiers with blue flags and blue flags among the eight banners of the Han Dynasty, a part of the Han army, more than 100,000 people stationed in Haizhou, so many soldiers, if they only stuck to Haizhou, it was impossible.

According to the analysis of intelligence, the main force of the Jiangning battalion will arrive in Liaodong and launch an attack from the direction of Guangning and Xipingbao, and there will certainly not be many sergeants stationed in Fuzhou and Xuanzhou, and this is an opportunity for the Qing Dynasty, no matter how brave the sergeants of the Jiangning battalion are, it is difficult for the Qiao woman to cook without rice, and the military strength is not enough, so it is impossible to resist the attack of the army.

Haoge's suggestion has been appreciated by Huang Taiji, in fact, Huang Taiji has already considered this, but Haoge can put it forward, Huang Taiji is still very happy, in order to be able to take care of the smooth attack in the direction of Haizhou, Huang Taiji in the arrangement of Shenyang and Liaoyang direction deployment, biased towards Haizhou, the full eight banners of the inlaid yellow flag, the blue flag is stationed in Liaoyang, only the yellow flag is stationed in Shenyang, which can ensure that after the attack in the direction of Haizhou has an accident, the soldiers stationed in Liaoyang can rush to the aid in time.

Since July, all the deployments of the Great Qing Dynasty have also begun to be implemented, and there are not many adjustments involved, the focus is on the adjustment of the Han Eight Banners army, from the aspect of the arrangement of troops, there is not much difference between Liaodong and Haizhou, on the contrary, in the direction of Haizhou, the Yellow Flag, the White Flag, the Blue Flag and the Blue Flag are gathered in the Eight Banners, and the combat effectiveness is faintly stronger than that of Liaodong.
