Chapter Seventy-One: Northern Expedition! Northern Expedition (Chapter 21)
On the evening of August 24, the 11th year of Yongli, Zheng Chenggong took Yao Qisheng and rushed to Yongping Mansion under the escort of tens of thousands of navies led by Liu Guoxuan to preside over the overall situation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Feeling that Yongping Mansion, Zheng Chenggong couldn't take care of the fatigue of the long-distance journey, and immediately called his generals to hold a meeting.
Although there are letter soldiers who often pass on the latest military information, there will inevitably be delays in the vast sea, and Zheng Chenggong needs to know the latest military information.
The other thing is to calm people's hearts, that is, to tell everyone that I have only come to command the army in name only. A real military command will not interfere.
Zheng Chenggong beckoned everyone else to sit down, and then asked, "What's the situation lately, Jian Chu." You name it! ā
Lin Xishan heard a concise account of the movements of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which made Zheng Chenggong understand the current situation.
Lin Xishan pointed to the map and said, "To the west of the capital, the Manchus have no chance to turn over. For them, the loss is not just a natural hazard for the Yellow River. What's more, the civil and military officials in the Manchu and Qing dynasties have lost confidence and have secretly surrendered to our army. And all parts of the country have turned against each other in patches. The Manchus can't stay in the Guannai! Lin Xishan continued, "The Manchu Qing probably knew that they would do their best to conquer Shanhaiguan and win a chance to survive. If Shanhaiguan cannot be quickly conquered, once Gan Hui and Zhou Quanbin are allowed to conquer Baoding, it will be difficult for the Beijing division to be secured. Therefore, the Manchu Qing must want to win a victory at Shanhaiguan in a short period of time, and they are looking forward to ....... ā
Lin Xishan didn't continue, but the people present knew what it meant, and they all looked at Zheng Chenggong.
Lin Xishan persuaded him: "The status of the general is noble, and he really shouldn't come here." Once the body is hindered, it will inevitably affect the overall situation. The last general was willing to ask the general to focus on the overall situation and return to Nanjing first. The last general will definitely dedicate the head of the Tartar puppet emperor to the general! ā
Zheng Chenggong shook his head and said, "I know Jian Chu's worries, before I came, I had already sent a message asking Jin'er to return to Nanjing, and I also transferred Chen Yonghua back to help him." Jian Chu doesn't have to worry about the chaos after I die! ā
Zheng Jing is still young, if it will be fine in another five or six years, where can he take over the power smoothly now.
Lin Xishan wanted to continue to persuade, but after thinking about it, he chose to give up.
Once the Jingshi is recovered, it will be equivalent to the elimination of the Qing Dynasty.
The work of destroying the country!
If it's the emperor, it's okay, but it's not a good thing for others to get it, even if it's a marshal and general.
I don't look at the past and present, how many famous generals who have made such great achievements have ended up bleak.
The main thing is that there is no reward for the master.
Especially the three people like himself, Gan Hui, and Zhou Quanbin are already the commander-in-chief of the military region.
Where is the chance to rise again.
But for such a major event, it must be these commanders-in-chief themselves who are qualified and prestigious to lead the army.
The general must have been aware of these things, so he would take the risk of personally serving as the commander of the war.
As for whether there were other ideas, Lin Xishan didn't dare to think about it and couldn't think about it.
Zheng Chenggong looked at the map and said, "I haven't been on the battlefield for a long time, I'm afraid I can't compare to you." I'm just here to help you all in this battle. The specific military command is all subject to the arrangement of Commander-in-Chief Lin, who dares to disobey the order, Jian Chu can be killed directly, and there is no need to report it! ā
When the other generals heard this, they hurriedly stood up and drank, "Honorable Order! ā
Zheng Chenggong waved his hand to sit down, and then said, "Then what does Jian Chu think about this battle!" ā
Lin Xishan said, "The Manchu Qing Dynasty was anxious to conquer Shanhaiguan, and the last general thought that it should be held against the city. Our army is well-trained, coupled with the help of powerful weapons, it will definitely be able to make the Qing army Tartars hit their heads and bleed! ā
Zheng Chenggong smiled when he heard it and said, "Jian Chu's opinion is very big, but Shanhaiguan is not inside the outside. It's a bit difficult to defend the city. Recently, the Gewu Academy has developed some new weapons. I brought it all with me to the north this time, and it's not too late to make a decision after seeing it at the beginning! ā
When Lin Xishan heard it, he also thought about it.
Those scholars in the Gewu Academy like to tinker with some novelty things the most, although some of them are not very useful, but many of them are amazingly powerful, and they should be seen at that time, maybe it will help!
"Okay, the last general will see a thing or two, and then think about other strategies!"
ā¦ā¦
Ao Bai fought desperately regardless of human life, and blocked Gan Hui and Zhou Quanbin under the city of Baoding, and could not advance an inch.
Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty drove his own expedition, in order to win a glimmer of life, this time he was also desperate!
pulled out all the soldiers who could fight in the capital, a full 180,000.
Among them, there were 60,000 soldiers in the Eight Banners of the Manchu Dynasty, and these basically transferred all the young and strong soldiers in the Eight Banners.
These people are dead!
The Jurchen people who gave birth to Jurchen are afraid that they will not be able to recover for a hundred years.
And more importantly, in the past, the Zheng army conquered Nanjing, and many people in the Manchu Eight Banners still didn't think so, and felt that they had lost it, and it was not bad to be able to row the river and govern it, and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth.
Later, Xichuan was lost, Shaanxi was gone, and even Shandong was lost.
These Eight Banners disciples felt the crisis, but they didn't care too much. Anyway, even if the capital is lost, it will only be a retreat outside the customs.
I have been able to enjoy this flower world for so long, and I have earned it. Retreat to the outside of the customs, wait until the looted gold and silver are spent, and then enter the customs to grab it!
But when he heard that Shanhaiguan was lost, the eight banners were angry.
Your mother, this is to cut off Lao Tzu's way of life and rectify Lao Tzu to death.
If you don't give Lao Tzu a way to live, Lao Tzu has fought to the death with you.
The Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who have been intoxicated in the gentle township, this time it is to stimulate the last blood.
Picked up the dusty sabers, bows and arrows from the corner, rode on the horse and followed Shunzhi out of the capital, and killed at Shanhaiguan.
In the royal carriage pulled by six white horses, there are a few wisps of green smoke lingering, and the aroma of sandalwood chime is refreshing.
In the huge carriage, there is a comfortable soft couch.
Dressed in this armor, Shunji sat on a horse and looked solemnly at the map spread out on the small table.
Sonny was too old to follow the army on the expedition, so he was appointed by Shunzhi to stay in the capital to coordinate military affairs.
Sukh Saha, Ahanikan, Gushan Ezhen Liu Zhiyuan, Gushan Ezhen Tong Tulai, and Ibai were five important ministers, kneeling on the ground and sitting in the left and right columns.
"What do you Aiqing think of the recapture of Shanhaiguan this time?" Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty slowly raised his head and asked Suke Saha and the others.
"It's vulnerable, but that's just for Kanwai. It's much easier to attack from the gates. Your Majesty, my army is twice as large as the thieves. Just storm it! ā
Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty looked at the map and asked, "Where are the warriors of the Eight Banners now?" ā
Su Ke Saha hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, Meng Baqi has arrived in Chengde Town, and it will take one day to reach Yongping Mansion in two days." ā
Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty heard it and shouted, "With the help of the Eight Banners of Meng, our army's chances of victory have doubled." Suke Saha, you send envoys to appease the warriors of Mengbaqi, and you must make sure that they stab Zheng Jiajun from behind at a critical time. In this way, I will definitely be able to turn the tide and exterminate this gang of traitors. The people are also bright! ā
Suke Saha and the others hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed and said, "The emperor is wise and powerful, and he is bound to win as much as Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong did when they drove their own expeditions!" ā
Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty laughed out loud when he heard the compliments of his ministers.
This war is nothing more than that, and the 180,000 warriors led by me myself will definitely be able to eradicate a group of young people.
Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty waved his hand in high spirits and drank: "Let's go, fight to the death with the thieves in front of Shanhaiguan!" ā
