At the end of April, troops were used to Jiangnan, and Hangzhou was conquered in mid-June.
The tables of the southern Zhili and the prefectures and counties of Zhejiang are piled up on the desk, and the prefects, garrisons, general judgments, and counties in various places are ...... The document of waiting for surrender dazzled Dodor. He entered the customs in April last year, and took down most of the Ming Dynasty in June this year, whether it was Duoduo in Nanjing or Dolgon in Beijing, it was like a dream.
Hundreds of years later, Nanjing was known as one of the "Four Great Furnaces", and it is not much better now.
Duoduo leaned back on the bamboo chair and closed his eyes slightly, the mountain breeze was blowing, and he didn't know that the wind also carried a heat wave when he was close to his body.
He could hide in the shade of the trees in the Purple Mountains to escape the heat, but many of the soldiers from Liaodong and Mongolia were not so lucky. The provinces in the south of the Yangtze River have been decided, and under the shaving order, most of the people who cut off their heads will lose the courage to resist, and only the Zheng family of Fujian and Li Zicheng of Huguang are left in the entire Ming Dynasty. After a little more time, when the shaving order is completed, the army can return to the north to rest. This year, most of the Ming Dynasty was conquered, and the loss of 100,000 Jurchen soldiers was not small, so the regent ordered him to let the Han soldiers come to the battle first whenever there was a war.
"Knock Knock"
A rush of footsteps woke Dodor from his false sleep.
"Lord Wang!"
Seeing Duoduo's eyes wide, the soldiers bowed down and handed over a secret letter: "This is sent by Bolobel, who is stationed in Hangzhou." Susong and Zhejiang both wrote books, and after the shaving order was issued, Songjiang, Changzhou, Ningshao and other places all had rebellions by the former Ming people. โ
"It's just the pain of scabies!" Dordor took the letter and said impatiently, "There shall be no appeasement for the untouchables who dare to rebel and refuse to shave." All county governments that dared to raise banners to rebel were slaughtered. As long as you kill a few more people, those people who don't know what to do will be honest! โ
As he spoke, he unwrapped Bolo's secret letter.
After reading it hastily, Duoduo's face instantly turned from red to black, similar to the color of a corpse that had been dead for a long time.
"Bolo, this shit!" He cursed and struggled to crumple the letter into a ball of paper.
Zhedong rebelled, supported the king of Lu as the prison country, and secretly attacked and took the city of Hangzhou, and the main force of the Ming army was the soldiers and horses of Ningshao Town, which was said to have fled overseas in the early stage.
"Zhai Zhe!" Duoduo gritted his teeth. He fought with him, more than once.
When I heard that Ning Shaojun was divided, the deputy general Xiao Zhiyan begged to surrender, and the general soldier Zhai Zhe fled overseas, Duoduo was indeed suspicious. But soon after the capture of Hangzhou, the imperial court issued a shaving order, leaving him no time to find out.
There were too many officials in the Qing Dynasty who took refuge in the provincial capitals, and many officials of the Ming Dynasty became the chief officials of the Qing Dynasty directly, and the imperial court has not yet had time to investigate them one by one. It is precisely because of this that it is necessary for Dolgon to issue a shaving order, and after shaving their heads, these people will completely break with the past and honestly serve the Qing Dynasty.
But isn't it too rushed? Dodor had doubts in his heart, but he did not dare to speak out.
The staff read the seal of the book written by Li Chengdong, the governor of Susong, in their ears, which is all bad news.
The ball of paper in his hand was reopened, his chest heaving, and another layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Immediately mobilize a large army and besiege Hangzhou!" Capture the thief and capture the king first! Hangzhou is the southern center of the Jiangnan Plain, and with the backing of eastern Zhejiang, the king of Dai Lu is the prison country, which is a big trouble.
After the capture of Jiangnan, most of the Qing troops were stationed in Nanjing, Suzhou and Hangzhou. Because he was worried that the soldiers and horses of the three towns who had taken refuge would make a rebellion with the defenders of Nanjing, half of the soldiers and horses were stationed in Nanjing to deter all parts of the country.
No one dared to delay under Duoduo's order, and the Qing army moved quickly, and at the same time that Jinhua Zhu Dadian, Dongyang Zhang Guowei and others arrived at Shaoxing Mansion, the Qing 120,000 army arrived forty miles outside Hangzhou. Zhai Zhe did not dare to leave Xiaoshan, and completely handed over the matter of supporting the king of Lu to Zong Mao, and ordered Feng Qin and Chen Zilong to report the military situation every day, and asked the messenger to go to the camp of Fang Guoan in Fuyang to learn about the battle situation.
The army blocked the waterway of the canal, the road to Hangzhou was blocked, and the car rode into the city to wait.
Chen Zilong and Feng Qin went to the same city to check the military situation. In the clairplane, the Qing military camp stretches for dozens of miles, dotted with waterways and plains, and the recruited people are clearing the rice fields and paving the roads. On the high ground outside the north gate, the Qingyu artillery battalion was surveying the terrain and preparing to place the battery.
"You've fought against Qinglu?"
Feng Qin was short in stature, Chen Zilong was not exempt from vulgarity, and he was very uneasy about him. He was angry that Zhai Zhe would not come to guard Hangzhou City in person.
Feng Qin nodded slightly.
"Is it in the grassland?"
Feng Qin still nodded.
Chen Zilong lost his temper.
He was no longer at ease, the war was still handed over to Feng Qin, he only had to maintain order in Hangzhou, a curfew had been implemented in the city, and the chief of each security guard was in charge of patrolling the area.
Two days later, when there was a lot of noise in Shaoxing Mansion, the huge cannon at the head of Hangzhou roared, and the iron ball at the head of the city flew to the artillery camp that Kong Youde was arranging outside the north city. After firing more than a dozen shots, he finally hit the target once, smashed an iron cannon, and crushed more than 20 people.
Kong Youde led the soldiers to draw their swords, urging the people to arrange the artillery camp positions under the artillery fire, and those who dared to retreat timidly were immediately beheaded on the high ground. Jiangnan has an inexhaustible number of people, and since the Qing captives slaughtered Yangzhou City, they have been bloodless, and Duoduo is suspected of killing too few people and has not succeeded in establishing his authority.
"Boom!"
"Boom-boom-boom!"
The iron cannon was arranged, the angle was immediately calibrated, and the cannon returned fire, and the iron ball hit the city wall with a loud noise. In Hangzhou, chickens and dogs jumped, people closed their doors and hid in their homes, and the streets were empty.
Feng Qin watched for a while, the gravel at the head of the city was flying, and he didn't know where the next shot would hit, so he ordered his soldiers to go down to the city, leaving only the gunners to return fire.
The sound of cannons rang out from the afternoon until dark, and Kong Youde dismantled many of the city defense guns of Suzhou and Nanjing, and smashed the wall of the north gate in the afternoon.
In the early morning of the next day, the artillery battle continued, and five of the eight iron cannons on the north gate tower were destroyed.
Seeing that the return fire was not effective, Feng Qin simply ordered the gunners to go down the city wall, leaving only a few soldiers to use clairlooms to check the movements of the Qing captives.
In the afternoon, Kong Youde's artillery battalion stopped bombarding, and only one iron cannon remained at the head of the city.
After about half an hour, the head of the city shouted: "The Qing captives are coming!" โ
"Ten miles from the city!"
"Five miles from the city!"
"A mile out of town!"
"It's in the city!"
The shouts grew faster and faster.
In this position, another attack by the Qing artillery battalion may injure its own people by mistake. Feng Qin led his own troops to the city, only glanced at it, and a wave of red tide appeared on his face, but it quickly receded.
"All the armies go to the city!"
The defenders, who had long held back their strength, trotted up to the city in a queue, and when they went up to the city, they were all stunned.
Tens of thousands of people crawled close to the city wall under the dense crowd, and after those people, the Qing soldiers carried the ladder and approached. These people were driven by Duoduo from Jiaxing and Huzhou overnight, and the voice of crying father and mother was similar to the accent in Hangzhou.
"Don't let go without my orders!"
The defenders at the head of the city were armed with ammunition and the holes were pointing downward.
The Qing soldiers waited for a while, and when they saw that the city did not react, they raised their swords and scolded the people to get out of the way, and carried the ladder to the wall.
"One-two-three, release the gun!" Commanding soldiers to wave flags.
"Bang!" There was a neat bang, and the lead shot down diagonally. The accuracy of the bird's shot was not high, and the defenders tried their best to avoid the civilians, but the effect of the attack was very poor, and most of the lead hit one place.
"Release! Parallel Release! "Cheer every time.
The commander shouted loudly, "Parallel release, violators will be killed!" โ
There was another neat bang, and the lead was evenly sprinkled under the city, and seventy or eighty people immediately fell, some lying on the ground screaming, others clutching their chests and staring blankly at the sky overhead.
"Release!"
The sound of the guns was like the rhythmic sound of drums, and after four or five rounds of guns, the people and the defenders of the city could estimate how long it would take for a burst of lead to harvest life.
"Run!" I don't know who shouted first.
Thousands of people scattered and fled despite the Qing soldiers who were holding swords behind them, and the queue of the Qing army attacking the city could not be stopped.
Feng Qin looked at it for a moment, confirmed that it was correct, and ordered: "Che Feng, attack!" โ
Lux struggled to push the wheel to open the north gate, and the five hundred cavalry slaughtered the Qing soldiers carrying various siege equipment like arrows from the string.
In front of the gate of the city was a wide field, and the horses raised four hooves to scatter joy, without bows and arrows, without birds, and slashed at the nearest head with their knives. The grenadiers in the back threw out their powder packets to clear the way, and after three rounds of killing, the besieging defenders were killed by the wolf Bรจi.
Che Feng cut off three heads, and heard the roar of the artillery battalion in the distance, before turning around and retreating.
As soon as the cannons rang out, the defenders at the head of the city immediately retreated.
The last horse entered the city gate, and the iron gate slowly closed, and the city was empty.
"Ruthless!" Dodor watched the whole battle the whole thing.
Although it was a tentative attack, it could be seen from a little reaction that the defenders and the defenders were so easy to get back that Hangzhou City could not be as easy to take back as it was when it was captured. Thinking of this verse, he hated Bolo even more.
After fighting for a while, and seeing that the soldiers were slowly becoming proficient, they left to rest in the barracks.
The war in Hangzhou Mansion is in full swing, and Shaoxing Mansion is lively.
It was Ma Shiying who caused this fuse.
Before Zhu Dadian, Zhang Guowei and others arrived in Shaoxing, Ma Shiying was already in the palace of Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu. After Zhai Zhe arranged the battle situation, he and Liu Suifeng arrived in Xiaoshan, Liu returned to Xiaoshan with the wind to camp, and he went straight to Shaoxing and did not come to see Zhai Zhe.
After all, it was Hongguang Dynasty's auxiliary, and after Zhu Yihai chatted with him deeply, he praised him and kept him by his side.
But after Zhu Daring, Zhang Guowei and Song Zhipu arrived in Shaoxing, a violent conflict broke out.
The three of them asked King Lu to drive Ma Shiying away on the grounds of "pro-virtuous ministers and driving villains". These three people are more or less connected with the Donglin Party, and when Ma Shiying was in power, all three of them were idle at home and could not be reused. The most critical point is that Ma Shiying is regarded as one of the eunuchs because of his friendship with Ruan Dacheng, and at this moment he has a very bad reputation among Jiangnan scholars, almost being shouted at by everyone who crosses the street.
One person can't fry a group of people, King Lu originally didn't care, but after a few days of speculation, his time in office as a prisoner was delayed.
Seeing that the public was angry, he had no choice but to ask Ma Shiying to leave Shaoxing.
Come with the excitement and return with the defeat!
Ma Shiying was helpless, and then remembered Zhai Zhe.
