As expected, the Ming army's offensive in Mukden went very well. All the way, he mainly recruited and surrendered rebels, and he didn't fight much hard. Although there are many Qing soldiers in Fengtian, the current situation has penetrated into the hearts of every Qing soldier. The Qing Dynasty is not guaranteed, maybe the next day when you wake up, the dynasty will be changed.

These Han troops in Liaodong were also Guannei people, and most of the hometowns of these Guannei people were also liberated by the Ming army. They surrendered without hesitation. Even the Eight Banners Division of the Northern Army, their hometown is outside the pass, and they don't have the heart to resist. Now there are Japanese troops in the north and Ming troops in the south, and the Qing army in Mukden is sandwiched in the middle, divided into fragments, and everyone is thinking about how to successfully surrender the Ming army and how not to be captured by the Japanese army.

Every day, the planes of the Ming army scattered leaflets on their heads, and the leaflets were printed with photos of the Japanese army massacring prisoners of war. Whether the Qing soldiers on the ground are illiterate or not, they can understand the photos. This hand was greatly beneficial to the advance of the Ming army, but it was greatly detrimental to the advance of the Japanese army. As long as the Qing army was in Mukden, they now resisted desperately in the face of the Japanese army, and in the face of the Ming army, they did not say a word, laid down their arms and surrendered. The Ming army was able to advance hundreds of kilometers a day in Mukden, and it was not the resistance of the Qing army that slowed them down, but the heavy snow on the railways and roads.

And the Japanese army, since the Ming army Liaonan Deng6 began to scatter leaflets, No. 2 and No. 3 only advanced 60 kilometers in two days. The Japanese army on the 4th finally came to their senses, and it was no longer interesting to spend money in Mukden. So he decisively stopped advancing to the south, only held on to the places he had occupied, and devoted his main energies to the attack on the hinterland of Manchuria in the north.

In the central command hall, Xiang Xiaoqiang looked at the markers on the big map, holding his chin and thinking.

Nowadays, instead of red and blue, the markings on the map have become red, blue, and black. In the past, it was the international habit of Yan **, that is, blue represented oneself, that is, the Ming army, and red represented the enemy army, that is, the Qing army. Now, blue still represents the Ming army, the difference is that the Qing army has been replaced by black, and red has become the mark of the Japanese army.

The public statement within the high command is that the use of red to mark the Japanese army is not to regard the Japanese army as an enemy, but because red is the color of the Japanese army's flag and military flag, so it is just a little more vivid.

But many people know it. For example, Xiang Xiaoqiang. Now everyone knows how tense the Ming army and the Japanese army were in Northeast Asia, whether at sea or in six places. The use of red to identify the Japanese army, if not intentionally, is already very metaphorical. Xiang Xiaoqiang thought: The color of the national flag? There is more red on the Ming flag than on the Japanese flag!

……

"Ming Gong," Xiang Xiaoqiang turned his head to Zhang Zhaoxian, who was also looking at the map beside him, "Now the Japanese army still occupies a large amount of our land in Fengtian." Really don't let them withdraw from Mukden first? The students are worried that if we don't let them withdraw while they are not firmly on the ground, delay for another month or two, and let them withdraw after we have eliminated the Northern Qing Dynasty, it will be difficult. ”

Zhang Zhaoxian shook his head:

"Now that the Japanese army is occupying some places in Mukden, there are also military unavoidable factors. Most of the Japanese army's transportation routes from Korea to Manchuria were in Mukden. The highway in Mukden was relatively good, so that after they crossed the Yalu River, they could spread out as soon as possible and continue to advance north from northern Liaobei. If you cross the Yalu River directly from Jilin, it will be very difficult in terms of transportation. If we were to propose the withdrawal of the Japanese troops from Mukden now, they would definitely come up with this reason. Objectively speaking, this reason is quite sufficient.

"Besides, our main enemy at the moment is still the Northern Qing Dynasty. The Northern Qing also directly controlled the whole of Zhili and Inner and Outer Mongolia, and nominally controlled Gansu, Wusizang, and northern and southern Xinjiang, as well as no less than two million troops. A hundred-legged insect that dies but does not stiffen. This is a great empire that has been operating in the north for three hundred years, and before it reaches its last breath, we must treat it as the main enemy and not take it lightly.

"Now there will be tension between the two countries tomorrow, and if we really force it, then we may fall out. We cannot face two enemies at the same time. You should know that once you go to war with two enemies at the same time, especially if both of them are weaker than you, then there is a good chance that they will join forces to fight you, no matter how big their previous enmity was. Then we're in trouble. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang nodded and sighed:

"Alas...... Students understand ...... 'Three Kingdoms Principle'. However, the students were worried that if in a month or two, the Japanese army dug trenches, built fortifications, repaired airfields, and built a series of military depots and warehouses on the current land...... At that time...... Not to mention that they don't want to leave, even if we fight hard, it will take a lot of effort. …… Ming Gong, the Japanese army is no better than the Qing army. Even if the Qing army had fortifications like the Yangtze River defense line, we smashed the leaflets and Mingyang, and the defenders surrendered. And the Japanese army ...... No matter how superior our open space firepower is, as long as they have a few tunnels and a few bunkers, they will stubbornly resist to the last person and shed the last drop of blood. ”

Zhang Zhaoxian stared at him strangely for a few times, shook his head and smiled:

"Well, it's quite good, you mouth...... Hehehe. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled bitterly, very helpless. I can't tell him the stories of Iwo Jima and Okinawa. Then I might have to go to the doctor again.

On the map, half of Jilin is already a red villain. The north and east thirds of Mukden are also red villains. The Ming, Qing and Japanese armies were intertwined, and the Ming army was attacking Shenyang, while Liaoyang and Benxi, south of Shenyang, were under the control of the Japanese army. To the south of Liaoyang, there was a large Qing army. It's like a sandwich.

The current strategy of the Ming army is not to pursue complete control of Mukden, but only to control some key places without hindering the entry into the customs. For example, on the west side of the Liaodong Peninsula, the Ming army had to occupy every inch along the railway. The Shenyang area in northern Liaoning, which was the center of the Northern Qing Dynasty's rule in Mukden, was also to be taken by the Ming army here. As for the Liaoyang area south of Shenyang in the hands of the Japanese army, the Ming army did not force it, but only made a detour to avoid a conflict with the Japanese army.

Now, the direction of the Ming army's march in the entire Liaodong is, in general, to the west. Several large blue arrows also crossed from southeast to northwest, very imposingly.

At present, the top level of the Ming army mainly thinks the same as Zhang Zhaoxian. Fengtian has been assigned to the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming army is so powerful, the top level of the Ming army is confident that no matter whether it is reasoning or fists, they will be able to return to the entire Fengtian after fighting the Northern Qing Dynasty. Now we still have to destroy the Northern Qing Dynasty first. The Northern Qing Dynasty is here, and Japan may still take the opportunity to argue with the Ming Dynasty. With the Northern Qing Dynasty gone, Japan was isolated and helpless, and had to obediently withdraw from Mukden.

……

On February 5, the Ming army took Shenyang. On the 6th, Jinzhou was taken. After taking Jinzhou, the Ming army entered the western Liaoning corridor and embarked on the road south to capture Shanhaiguan.

After entering the Liaoxi Corridor, the resistance of the Qing army became fiercer. This place is close to the Guannei, and the Qing army stationed here are relatively elite generals, all of whom are the Eight Banners Division. But even so, the Ming army continued to advance on the western Liaoning corridor at a rate of 4o-5o kilometers per day.

On the 7th, the Ming army took Huludao. On the 8th, the Ming army took the last important town outside the Guan: Suizhong County. It is only 6o kilometers away from Shanhaiguan, an important town of the Qing army.

As Xiang Xiaoqiang said in his speech, within a week of February 2, the Ming army advanced under Shanhaiguan.

Shanhaiguan is known as "the first pass in the world" and has always been one of the top military towns in China. The reason why the Liaoning West Corridor is called "corridor" is because it is surrounded by lofty mountains in the northwest and the surging sea in the southeast, with only a narrow flat land in the middle. From Jinzhou in the north to Qinhuangdao in the south, 2oo kilometers are all this kind of narrow corridor area, and the widest place is only about 2o kilometers.

More than ten kilometers north of Qinhuangdao is the narrowest place in the western Liaoning corridor. From the mountains to the sea, there is only about 10 kilometers of flat land in between. The pass built here is also named Shanhaiguan.
