Chapter 141 The East Captives Goes Down to Qingzhou
Jinan City.
Dolgon, the pseudo-prince of Qingrui, looked at the empty city and wanted to cry without tears, is it easy for Lao Tzu? An army of 80,000 rushed for nearly 700 miles, but it was lost.
"Prince Rui, the essence of Shandong is all in Jinan, and now we have found nothing, in my opinion, it is better to continue to attack and advance to the south, and completely destroy the Cao Yun Road of the Ming Kingdom, didn't that Fan Wencheng say anything, once the grain is cut off, the world will be chaotic?"
Doroan Ping Beledudu was equally angry that nothing had been achieved in Jinan.
Du Du is the first son of the eldest son Chu Ying, the eldest son of Nurhachi, in the ninth year of the Mandate of Heaven, the Khalkha Bayott Department Taiji Engeder requested to attach the Houjin, Du Du followed Belle Daishan to welcome them to surrender, and was named Baylor.
Since the first year of Jin Tiancong, Du Du has followed Amin and others to fight in the east and west, and has repeatedly made military exploits, and after the slave chief Hongtai succeeded to the throne, he still regarded it as Doro Anping Belle, and listened to orders in the red flag, which made Du Du very dissatisfied.
Du Du once said, "Although I try my best to serve the country, what is the use? Zilharang and his ilk often put the emperor on their lips, so they made a prince, and when time comes, I believe that God will judge. ”
Prince Cheng Yue Tuo hurriedly persuaded: "Anping Baylor, when we set out on the expedition, the emperor had a strict order, let us not enter Jining, that Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan I said that Qubu is the hometown of saints, so we must not be offended." ”
"Ah, bah, those two dog minions are also worthy of talking about saints, if they are saints, they will not be pigs and dogs for our Qing Dynasty, and I don't know what kind of drugs the emperor has eaten, and he will obey these two dog things."
Regarding Yue Tuo's words, Du Du was very disdainful.
"Du Du, don't talk nonsense, the emperor is powerful and powerful, with Fan Wencheng and them, they naturally have the emperor's reason, how can we be courtiers and say that the emperor is not."
In Dolgon's eyes, he always had to win over anyone who didn't deal with Hong Tai, so after Du Du finished speaking, he came over on the spot.
"Prince Rui, what you said is that I'm just angry that these southern barbarians fled too fast."
Du Du is the grandson of the old slave, although he is much older than Dolgon, but under Dolgon's deliberate wooing, he still respects Dolgon.
Yue Tuo sneered: "According to the news received by our sentinels, Jinan's population, money and grain have been brought to Leiden by Li Xingzhi, the general soldier of Ming Leyden, let's not fight to the south, let's fight the assembly to the east!" ”
"Leyden's chief soldier Li Xingzhi? It is....... ”
Before Du Du finished speaking, Dolgon said: "Du Du, you lead the army and horses of your headquarters to attack the affiliated counties of Jinan, and you must collect enough money and food, Abatai died in the battle of Gaoyang and Zhending, if we can't get enough gains, the emperor will be angry." ”
"Alas! All right! Prince Rui! ”
Du Du is not a stupid person, as a clan of Dolgon's lineage, he clearly knows how Abatai was defeated, Yue Tuo is a person who is trusted by Hong Tai, if this matter is spread, Hong Tai will definitely use the topic to play, although it will not be to dismiss Dolgon's prince, but he will definitely take the white flag and a few bulls.
After stopping Du Du, Dolgon looked at Yue Tuo and said in a deep voice: "Since General Yangwu said that he can't attack Jining, it is better to lead the army to the east, according to King Gongshun, Leyden has been disabled by him, and it should be no problem for the general to deal with a mere Leyden army!" ”
Yue Tuo was originally the eldest son of the puppet Qingli prince Daishan, and after the death of the old slave, Yue Tuo saw the opportunity to persuade his father Daishan to support Hong Tai's succession.
Because of the merit of supporting the establishment, Hong Tai was named the Prince of Heshuo Cheng after stabilizing the interior, and the red flag was inlaid in his palm, and then because of Yue Tuo's protection of Mang Gurtai, Shuotuo, Zierharang, Haoge, and the princes agreed that Yue Tuo was guilty of capital crimes, but Hong Tai was grateful for Yue Tuo's meritorious service, but he was demoted to Dorobelle, and he still held the red flag.
Although Yue Tuo was demoted to Baylor, he was still the owner of a banner, with a high and powerful position, and he was deeply trusted by Hong Tai, and the officials of the Qing court did not dare to underestimate him, and he was still called a prince.
This expedition, Hong Tai took Yue Tuo as the general of Yangwu, and led Haoge, Du Du and others to enter the customs, which was considered, one was to use Yue Tuo to watch Dolgon, the other was to wait for Yue Tuo to make military exploits, so as to restore his title, and the third was that Yue Tuo had been on the battlefield for a long time, and let the prince Haoge follow, which also had the meaning of honing Haoge.
Yue Tuo is resourceful and decisive, and he is naturally aware of Dolgon's radical generals, but in his opinion, attacking Qingzhou and Leiden is nothing, the elite Xuan army of the Ming court was defeated, and the Guanning army nested in the city as immobile as a mountain.
"I was ordered to let the general attack Jiaodong, the general has nothing to do, but Prince Su Haoge is leading the troops to besiege Dezhou, the general currently only has ten Niu Lu inlaid with red flags, two thousand Mongolian soldiers, Qingzhou and Laizhou are the capital cities of the Ming Kingdom, Prince Rui has to transfer some military horses and generals!"
Yue Tuo's meaning is obvious, let me go, but this king is short of soldiers and horses, and you Prince Rui can't stand idly by.
Dolgon muttered: "What Prince Cheng said is reasonable, we came on light horses, and there is no artillery to help, and the few soldiers can't be successful, so let's do it, this king sent the Han army to the Yellow Banner to lead Tong Tulai, and the Han army to lead the Red Banner to lead the five thousand Han troops to help you, the Han army is well-armed, just with those lowly southern barbarians, there should be no problem in attacking the city." ”
Yue Tuo was overjoyed, although the Ming army was unbearable, but after all, there were city walls to protect it, and those traitors with the Han army flag to fight the vanguard were better than letting the Manmeng children go to the city to be desperately strong.
After the two made a plan, Yue Tuo immediately returned to the camp to gather the generals to prepare for the expedition.
This time, there were more than 30,000 people in the Yuetuo Division, but since they went south, they divided their troops, and after arriving in Jinan, the Yuetuo Department only left the second assistant leader Yehenala clan Balanqi, the fifth assistant leader Fu Chashi Aobei, the eighth assistant leader Tanaka, and the Mongolian Ezhen Alan Chai, Sonomu Department of 5,000 Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry.
On the fifteenth day of the first month, Yue Tuo, the prince of the puppet Qing Dynasty, commanded the Manchurian, Han and Mongolian Eight Banners of the Ministry of Soldiers, and went straight to the Qingzhou capital city in Zhangqiu.
Since entering Shandong, the Dongyu has destroyed 17 county seats, slaughtered nearly one million soldiers and civilians, and the people of Qingzhou have been shocked three times a day.
He Yongqing, the prefect of Qingzhou, had no plan in the face of this chaotic situation, he could not fight, he could not defend, and he could not live in fear.
According to the sentry news, the soldiers and horses of the Dongyu army are neat and tidy, the clothes and armor are distinct, the flag covers the sky, the spears and bows and guns are uncountable, and the cavalry and infantry army are tens of thousands, holding high the banner, not breaking the Jiaodong, and vowing not to quit the army.
He Yongqing was even more flustered, and actually cut his hair to become a monk with Fucheng Qu Yunbin, and fled from Fucheng overnight and avoided the mountains.
As soon as the news of the prefect's escape from the city came out, the city of Qingzhou was in chaos, and the people fled out of the city, and the ruffians in the city took the opportunity to plague the township and loot the treasury.
On the 21st, Ao Bei, the vanguard of the Yue Tuo Department, led more than 1,000 Eight Banner troops to arrive at the city of Qingzhou, and because there was no one to defend the city, Ao Bei broke into the city of Qingzhou without much effort.
