Chapter 296: How the Civil War Was Fought

"Phew!" Another knife, with a few drops of blood spilled, Lin Fengxiang's left chest was unscrewed down a small piece, and he suddenly exhaled happily, even though the people of Beijing have natural discrimination and prejudice against the Taiping Army, they also secretly gave a thumbs up and shouted a real man!

No matter what their identity is, they can still talk and laugh when they are tied to the execution ground, and they have to admire!

Another executioner took a sharp breath, and was about to concoct the same method to Li Kaifang, but there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the Xuanwu Gate, and he couldn't help but look back, and saw that dozens of horsemen galloped out, led by Prince Gong Yixun, Yixun waved his hand and shouted: "Stay under the knife, according to the emperor's command, suspend the execution of criminals, and keep people under the knife!" ”

Everyone looked at each other, temporarily called a stop, there must be something happening, and they used their imagination to guess all kinds of possibilities.

Zaiyuan and the supervisor headed by Su Shun also stood up together, and when Yixun arrived, Juyuan hurriedly asked, "Lord Gong, what's the matter?" Why did the emperor stop? ”

Yi Xun said expressionlessly: "According to the emperor's instructions, quickly escort the prisoners to the gate of Yongding, and the king will dispose of them with full authority!" ”

Boom, the crowd exploded, Yongding Gate is the outer gate of Beijing, and being escorted outside the city is equivalent to being sent out of the city, you don't have to think about it to guess, there must be something big happening, because no one thinks that Xianfeng will be bored enough to change his mind temporarily, and send the prisoner to be buried alive outside the city!

The soldiers of the Taiping Army led by Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang were also stunned, they had already made up their minds to die, but they didn't expect the plot to take a turn, and no one could stand it. But no one has thought about the exchange of prisoners, after all, they saw with their own eyes that Su Sanniang's army was about to be wiped out, as for Wang Feng. Except for occasionally regretting that he didn't listen to his advice, it was neither a deep friendship nor too deep an impression, and he only thought that the Qing court had another conspiracy.

Yi Xun swept the crowd of onlookers with cold eyes, and shouted: "Xincang has been screaming, why are you staying here?" Hurry up and return to the neighborhood, otherwise you will be punished as a collaborator! ”

As soon as these words came out. The people scattered in a hurry, who can not be afraid of Prince Gong's speech? The shops along the street also closed their doors. Within a moment, except for more than 4,000 Taiping prisoners of war, nearly 10,000 escorted Qing troops, there were no more idle people at the entrance of the vegetable market in Nuoda.

Yixun waved his hand: "Let's go!" ”

Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang were dismissed. The Qing army escorted a Taiping prisoner of war for every two people and marched towards Yongding Gate, Zaiyuan and others followed closely, Su Shun couldn't help but ask: "Lord Gong, what's going on?" ”

"Alas~~" Yi Xun sighed and said helplessly: "When the monk and the Shengbao department besieged the bandit girl Kou Su Sanniang under the city of Linqing, they were attacked by short-haired sneak attack, and the whole army was annihilated, and more than 4,000 people under the prince Hui, the monk and the lord were captured. The short hair covered under the city of Beijing, and the emperor gave permission to exchange prisoners."

"What?" Everyone's complexion has changed dramatically. No wonder they will release letter cannons, no wonder they will spread the word to leave people under the knife, and they will be hidden by the enemy under the city of Beijing, this is the second time that the Jiaqing Dynasty has been attacked into the Forbidden City by the Tianli Sect!

There are even people who have a very absurd feeling, more than 200 years ago, Emperor Taizong also attacked the city of Beijing. Although it was repelled by the Ming army, it laid the foundation for the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty!

Zaiyuan said angrily: "How dare Shorthair be so arrogant? Shandong Governor Yamen. What does the Yamen of the Governor of Zhili do? Unexpectedly, let the shorthair kill under the city of Beijing without noticing? ”

No one can answer this, but everyone understands that Zhang Liangji, the governor of Shandong, and Gui Liang, the governor of Zhili, are going to be unlucky.

In fact, everyone knows in their hearts, the two armies of Seng Greenqin and Shengbao gathered in Linqing, and the victory is in hand, no one could have imagined that there would be another army going north, which can only be said to have suffered a disaster, and for a while, they all walked forward silently.

Yongding Gate is one of the seven gates of the outer city, and it is also the largest of the seven city gates, it is the thoroughfare road that enters and exits the capital from the south, it was built in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, a moat with a width of 20 meters constitutes a strong barrier, at this time, the Yongding Gate has been full of soldiers.

The Fengtai battalion was stationed four miles outside the Yongding Gate, and although the Fengtai battalion was unable to stop the democratic alliance army in a short period of time, it sent troops to follow it soon after, and the Fengtai battalion had twelve battalions under its jurisdiction, with a total strength of 28,000 soldiers, and was an important force to protect Beijing.

Wang Feng didn't pay attention to the Qing army behind him, because he didn't know a little bit about the art of war, he wouldn't attack lightly, and he needed to leave time for Beijing City to transfer troops, he just looked at the city, on the one hand, he observed the spiritual outlook of the Qing army, and on the other hand, there were captives who gave him special guidance, of course, Wang Feng also made a promise to release him.

Su Sanniang after a few days of recuperation, the body recovered quickly, although can not do it, but there is no problem to walk on the ground, at this time standing on the side of Wang Feng, looking at the towering and tall city gate, feeling generalized: "At the end of the second year of Chongzhen, the Manchu chief Taiji led 100,000 troops into the pass, the soldiers came under the city of Beijing, Yuan Inspector led 9,000 cavalry, and the Qing army tens of thousands of people to start a bloody battle, fierce battle for ten hours, more than ten miles, and finally defeated the enemy to win, Yongdingmen is also one of the main battlefields.

The Korean envoy once described in the report: the thief to the Shawo Gate, Yuan Junmen, the ancestral general soldiers, etc., from noon to unitary, more than ten rounds of fierce battles, as for the arrow, fortunately successful, the thief retreated more than 30 miles, the thief must not capture the capital, because of the two generals' efforts to fight also, Huang Taiji also sighed: fifteen years, there has not been such a strong enemy, but unfortunately Yuan Inspector is enthusiastic, was executed by Ling Chi, since then the Ming Dynasty has no capable generals, alas~~"

Yuan Chonghuan is not as good as Yue Fei and Wen Tianxiang, the latter two are even some people with ulterior motives, they dare not erase their exploits, they can only talk about the civil war of the Chinese nation, and demote the national heroes to anti-Jin or anti-Yuan heroes, and Yuan Chonghuan's controversy is very big, there are two key points, first of all, Yuan Chonghuan was praised by Qianlong, and secondly, a well-known writer with an obvious pro-Manchu tendency is also vigorously eulogizing, which makes people very disgusted and repulsed.

If you want to say that the Manchu Qing Dynasty is not only Yuan Chonghuan, Guan Erye is more famous, but Guan Erye has no controversy, and he has steadily become a martial saint.

The truth of history is often deliberately covered up and distorted by the rulers, and it is difficult to restore it, but Wang Feng is still willing to define Yuan Chonghuan as a national hero, because he feels that Yuan Chonghuan's enthusiasm is true, and betraying the country and joining the enemy is nothing.

Yuan Chonghuan's failure was mainly due to the fact that the stalls of the Ming Dynasty were too bad, and no one could clean them up except to tear them down and start over, and Yuan Chonghuan was likely to be too angry in the book, lacking in vision and overall situation, plus Chongzhen was a mean and suspicious master, and in the end it could only end in tragedy.

Wang Feng shook his head and said with a forced smile: "Sister Sanniang, do you have the feeling that history repeats itself?" More than 200 years ago, the Emperor Taiji soldiers came to the city of Beijing, fourteen years later the Ming Dynasty fell, today we are stationed in Beijing City, how many years do you say it will take for us to destroy the Manchu Dynasty? ”

"This" Su Sanniang really couldn't answer, and it took a long time before she was unsure: "Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang captured Nanjing in the sixteenth year of Zhizheng (1356), and took the capital from the twenty-eighth year of Zhizheng, a total of thirteen years, when the Yuan Dynasty was unpopular, and the upper and lower were opposed, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty was not all opposed, there was still a considerable part of the support among the gentry and bureaucrats, at least the thirteen lines of Guangzhou would never be anti-Qing, so I think that the time should be longer than one or twenty years, and the Qing Dynasty should be destroyed within twenty years." ”

Wang Feng stretched out a finger and flicked it: "Inspector Yuan once gave Chongzhen "Five Years of Peaceful Liaoluo", boasting that it was five years to pacify Liaodong, this is just a scholarly atmosphere, pure nonsense, and only Chongzhen will believe it, I dare not boast about five years of big words, but I put down my words today, ten years, I will come to Beijing again within ten years, and then it will be the time when the Manchu Qing Dynasty will destroy the country and the people!" ”

"Do you still say that you are not boasting? Ten years of extermination is not a big deal? Lin Youniang snorted coldly!

Wang Feng ignored Lin Youniang, but glared at Zhou Yanqi fiercely, meaning that his own women couldn't handle it, what was going on?

Zhou Yanqi hurriedly lowered his head in shame, and Wang Feng said: "Although I am very reluctant to admit it, in fact, our war with the Qing court is a civil war, and the civil war has a civil war style, just like Zhu Di's crusade against Emperor Jianwen, you don't have to care about the gains and losses of one city and one place, you should fight with a large army, destroy the enemy's living forces in several key battles, and then occupy the enemy capital and eliminate the core figures of the enemy's ruling group as the strategic goal!"

China is so big, if every city is beaten, how long will it take? If it is protracted, foreign forces will inevitably take advantage of the situation and bring obstacles to our great cause of reunification, so we must destroy the Qing Dynasty quickly and suddenly, and do not give foreign forces time to interfere!

In fact, from this point of view, the Taiping Army's Northern Expedition was not wrong, but what was wrong was that it did not have a clear understanding of the contrast between the forces of the enemy and us, and made the mistake of blindly optimistic left-leaning adventurism. ”

With the main goal of annihilating the enemy's living forces, the PLA has already pointed out the way, and it has been proved effective in practice, and Wang Feng only needs to fry the cold rice again.

"The commander-in-chief is really a person who wakes up from his dreams!" Feng Yuanming's eyes suddenly lit up, and he praised with his fingers: "We have never considered these things in previous battles, we only know how to fight and kill, get some money to rob the rich and help the poor, although everyone's goal is to overthrow the Manchu rule, but there is no long-term clear plan, so more than ten years have passed, and we are still rogues, listening to the commander-in-chief today, we have a goal, at least we know what to do." ”

"Hmm!" Su Sanniang also nodded and said, "Could it be that Wang Feng can grow so much in a year's time, okay!" Ten years later, I will accompany you to Beijing again! ”

As she was talking, Su Sanniang suddenly exclaimed: "Look, there's movement up there!" (To be continued)
