Chapter 410: Naval Attack and Total Annihilation of Tan Taibu
Before the end of the battle on the main battlefield in Henan.
At this time, in the local battlefield, the other armies of the Guards had already begun to launch a general offensive against the Qing army.
When Zhu Youzhen first established the military system of the Guards, he had already grouped the Guards.
That is, a Guards Corps is able to conduct independent operations in an area, and this independent operation includes both military and political operations.
The same is true of today's First and Fourth Guards armies.
But first of all, the Navy of the Guards.
Since Liu Kongzhao led 20 sail warships and 40 hard-sail warships from Songjiang Mansion to Denglai in the north, they directly attacked and harassed along the coast of the Qing court.
As a third-class battleship, the "Sincerity Bo" took the lead in firing and bombarded the Qing defenders of Tianjin.
Some of the warships of the Qing army were directly destroyed, and many Qing troops were even killed by the bombing.
And the Qing army also arranged red-coated cannons in this area, defending the Ming navy.
However, the Qing army did not realize that the navy of the Ming Dynasty would be so powerful, nor did they expect that the Ming Dynasty would have such a large warship.
The generals of the Qing army were all surprised, and they began to fire red-coated cannons in a panic.
For a time, the entire Tianjin Wei area was full of cannons.
However, the attack tactics adopted by the Guards Navy withdrew from Tianjin Wei when the Qing army concentrated on firing artillery, and went directly north to the mouth of the Luanhe River.
At dawn one day, when the Qing defenders at the mouth of the Luan River were still asleep, the Guards Navy touched them, killed all the Qing defenders, and then left.
Immediately afterwards, the Guards Navy went north to Shanhaiguan and Juehua Island, and continued to carry out artillery bombardment in this area.
Even the Guards Navy once occupied Haizhouwei.
The entire area of Liaodong outside the Qing court was full of beacon fires, and there was chaos.
Dolgon received more than a dozen reports a day from all over the country that had been harassed by the navy.
And just when Dolgon drew troops from all over the country to strengthen the coastal defense and further evacuate the coastal people inland, the Guards Navy went directly south to Tianjin Wei.
Before the navy came to Tianjin Wei again, the Second Corps of the First Army of the Guards Army took advantage of the previous naval disturbance in Tianjin Wei to enter Nanpi County.
At this time, the magistrate of Nanpi County was the new science and technology of the second year of Shunzhi.
Lin Qizong now enjoys his life as a county magistrate, he has regarded himself as an official of the Qing Dynasty, and even took the initiative to give his most beautiful concubine to Tan Tai, a first-class prince.
In order for Tan Tai to accept him as a clothed minion, so that he can also rely on Tan Tai to be promoted.
Tan Tai did experience the taste of his concubine before leaving Nanpi County, and perhaps recommended him to serve as the governor of Texas after he waited for the Texas Governor to be defeated.
Therefore, this Lin Qizong would send people to inquire about the news of Tan Tai's army every day, and he did not dare to slack off on Tan Tai's military ration raising, in order to make himself the prefect as soon as possible.
He knew the wealth of Dezhou, which was the richest prefecture in Shandong except Jinan.
Therefore, Lin Qizong didn't want to become the prefect of Texas as soon as possible, so he desperately made a sum of money.
But it is precisely because he is leaving Nanpi County, so these days he is also desperately searching for people's wealth under the guise of raising military rations for Tan Tai.
He didn't dare to provoke the gentry in the city, but he dared to exploit the small people inside and outside the city.
However, what Lin Qizong didn't expect was that just when he had just issued the order to enter the city to sell an additional 1 cent of the entrance fee, the 1st Cavalry Battalion of the 2nd Corps of the 1st Army of the Guards suddenly rushed into Nanpi County.
In this way, Nanpi City was easily breached by the Second Corps of the First Army of the Guards.
As soon as Lin Qizong heard that the Ming army had entered the city, he was so frightened that he directly softened the dust handle, and thousands of descendants poured directly into the body of his maidservant, and then he was about to get up and change his clothes in a panic, but he fell directly to the ground.
"Master Ming Army, Master Ming Army, student Lin Qizong was originally a student member of Qinghe County, please spare the life of the lower official, the lower official has ten thousand two family wealth, and he is willing to dedicate them to the military master!"
Lin Qizong was finally supported by his own staff and knelt in front of the commander Zhang Zhiwu.
"A corrupt official who is a courtier for Jiannu! Go to hell! ”
The commander of the First Cavalry Battalion, Zhang Zhiwu, was too lazy to talk nonsense, and his task was to raid and occupy Nanpi County, laying the foundation for the Second Corps to block the way for Tan Tai's 80,000 remnants to retreat south.
Therefore, Zhang Zhiwu didn't have time to judge Lin Qizong in accordance with the regulations on the management of the Guards' entry into the town, and directly cut off Lin Qizong's head.
Immediately afterwards, other units of the Second Corps of the Guards Army also entered Nanpi County one after another, and began to attack various Qing army passes with Nanpi County as a base, so as to achieve the goal of encircling and annihilating the 80,000 remnants of Tan Tai's army with the First Corps of the First Army.
Although the sudden northward occupation of Nanpi County by the Guards was only for wartime needs, and there was no intention of occupying it for a long time, so it did not mobilize the people and did not judge the gentry officials, but it could be regarded as leaving a deep impression on the local people.
At least let these people know that the Ming Dynasty still exists, and the Ming army is still there.
After learning that the Guards had 70,000 horses occupying the county town of Nanpi, Tan Tai, a first-class Manchurian prince, also realized that he might be in danger of being surrounded, and in a hurry, he sent people to Dolgon to ask for help from Abatai.
But at this time, the First Corps of the First Army had already approached Dongguang City.
Two hundred heavy infantry field guns directly blasted open the gate of Dongguang City, and the Manchurian 3,000 iron cavalry of Tan Tai's department was also annihilated by the infantry battalion of the First Corps of the First Guards Army.
The rest of Tan Tai's infantry was also wiped out by the Second Corps of the Guards Army in a hurry to the north.
At this point, all the 200,000 Qing troops of Tan Tai's department were destroyed.
The First Army of the Guards carried 30,000 prisoners to the south, including Tan Tai himself.
This figure, who was also the commander of the expedition against Nanming in the original history, also became a prisoner of the Guards at this moment, like Hong Chengchou.
At this time, the Qing court governor Abatai had no time to take care of Tan Tai.
Because the Guards Navy directly attacked and occupied Tianjin Wei this time.
The land troops of the Tianjin Wei were transferred to the Luanhe Estuary because of the Guards Navy attack on the Luanhe Estuary.
As a result, Tianjin Wei also emptied its troops.
At this time, Abatai was busy transferring troops south because the First Army of the Guards Army had entered Nanpi, and he could not take care of the Tianjin Guard, so that the Guards Navy simply occupied the Tianjin Guard.
Then, Zheng Sen even took the Marine Infantry Battalion and the Cavalry Battalion all the way to Baoding Mansion to attack Baoding Mansion.
The reason why the Guards Navy suddenly wanted to attack Baoding Mansion was not a whim, but that the Guards Navy decided to occupy Baoding Mansion to deter the Qing Court from occupying it after discovering that the entire Qing Court's Beizhili forces were suddenly empty, and at the same time, it could also be regarded as providing support for the First Army of the Guards in the south to resist Tan Taibu.
Because as the governor of the Qing court, Abatai, the king of Doro County, was in Baoding Mansion.
Once the Guards Navy besieged Baoding Mansion, it would naturally transfer the troops that Abatai had transferred to the south back.
