He asked Ling Jingyang to express his opinions at the venue, it was the words that Ling Jingyang said to him before, which really touched his heart, he meditated in the dead of night, thinking that the Dashun army would be attacked by the Qing army and the Ming army soon, and only beat the Qing army, so that the Qing army thought that the Dashun army was a hard stubble, and did not dare to continue to consume with the Dashun army.

The Qing army has entered the customs, if you want to fight for the world, you must grab more resources, Jiangbei has been broken, there is no time to recover for several years, only to break through the defense line of the Ming army in Jiangnan, drink the Yangtze River, and continue to fight with the population and taxes of the land in the south of the Yangtze River.

But how to let the Qing army go to the south of the Yangtze River, Tian Jianxiu thought that the only way to destroy the Qing army in Shanxi was to make the Qing army dare not go west, and the Qing army retreated back to compete with the Ming army for the world.

This idea is very beautiful, in order to get the support of the generals, Tian Jianxiu specially asked Ling Jingyang to talk about his opinion, Ling Jingyang didn't know what he wanted to sell in the gourd, but he still stood up and said to the generals: "The last general thinks that the Qing army is strong, and our army will take an offensive, and may annihilate part of the Qing army in the short term, but in the long run, it still can't withstand the counterattack of the Qing army." ”

Li Guo was a little meaningful and said to Ling Jingyang: "Ling Jingyang, you can't destroy your own prestige and help others' ambition." ”

"General Li, I heard that someone doesn't like to say some vain words, the more fierce our army fights in Shanxi, there will only be two consequences, I don't know if your generals are interested in listening to the last general's account?"

Dang Shousu showed a disdainful expression, and joked with Ling Jingyang: "Then listen to General Ling's opinion, let us also open our eyes." ”

However, he didn't pay attention to him, everyone listened carefully to Ling Jingyang's unique opinions, and Ling Jingyang also lived up to expectations, talking to everyone about the pros and cons of the counterattack in Shanxi.

But before the counterattack, he talked to everyone about a premise, that is, after breaking through the capital, the Ming Dynasty did not completely perish, but the rule in Jiangbei was subverted, and there were hundreds of thousands of Ming troops in Jiangnan, as well as a complete set of administrative teams in Yingtianfu, as well as the existence of a small imperial court.

As soon as the words fell, many generals had different expressions on their faces, and disdain, there was silence, and there was anger, Ling Jingyang continued to mention to everyone that the remnants of the Ming army rebuilt the imperial court in Yingtianfu, will these hundreds of thousands of Ming troops join forces with the Qing army and attack the Dashun army together?

This aroused the interest of many generals, Li Guo and he said: "Those armies of the Ming Dynasty are just a group of garrison troops, even if they unite with the Qing army, we have to see if they have this ability, Ling Jingyang, you came to my Dashun army late, I don't know that those Ming troops in the south of the Yangtze River are all left over from us, and they definitely don't have the courage to cross the river." ”

The Dashun army looked down on the Ming army, especially the Ming army in Jiangnan, the most powerful Zuo Liangyu department, the elite had long been wiped out in Zhuxian Town, and the reorganized troops were a group of untrained recruits.

Li Guo was even more full of pride and Ling Jingyang said that Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zeqing, Gao Jie, Huang Degong and other soldiers and horses in the Ming army in the south of the Yangtze River were also driven over from Jiangbei by the Dashun army.

But Ling Jingyang's style changed, and Hetian Jianxiu said: "My lord, if our army defeats the Qing army, will the Qing army take defense against our army and attack Jiangnan?" ”

Tian Jianxiu was waiting for this sentence, and Ling Jingyang said happily: "General Ling, young and old, old and spicy, the top of the Qing army is by no means a mediocre person, and will not let the remnants of the Ming accumulate strength in Jiangnan, what we have to do is to lead the Qing army to Jiangnan, let the two praying mantis catch cicadas, and our army will be behind." ”

Ling Jingyang suddenly smiled with him, and said in a different tone: "Lord Tian, do you know the slogan after the Qing army entered the customs?" ”

Without waiting for Tian Jianxiu to answer, Liu Fangliang smiled: "Isn't it just to avenge that Emperor Chongzhen, hey, how many Ming soldiers have been killed by this group of birdmen outside the pass, and after entering the pass, they are still cheeky and waving the banner of avenging Emperor Chongzhen, and they are not ashamed?" ”

Ling Jingyang said to Liu Fangliang very surely: "No, people don't panic, as long as the remnants of the Ming army in Jiangnan are stabilized, they can concentrate all their strength to continue fighting with our army, our army wants to lead the Qing army to the Ming army, isn't it the same for the Qing army?" ”

Everyone suddenly didn't squeak, Tian Jianxiu also wanted to be blocked by someone's throat, unable to say a word, Ling Jingyang looked at the expressions of the generals, and said: "Our army set off a counterattack in Shanxi, the purpose is to annihilate the Qing army, not to lead the Qing army to Jiangnan, even if the Qing army is led to Jiangnan, the Jiangnan Ming army will be welcomed by the road, and maybe the Qing army will surrender and become a pawn of the Qing army, the Jiangnan Ming army surrendered, and the Qing army soared like a snowball." ”

Chen Yongfu, who had not spoken, spoke, he surrendered to the Dashun Army from the Ming army, and after the Dashun Army was defeated by the Qing army, he did not rebel, and still continued to fight with the Qing army: "Ling Jingyang, you said so much, just to kill a few more Eight Banner soldiers?" ”

Ling Jingyang shook his head, and finally said what was in his heart: "No, no, no, the last general thinks that he will join forces with the remnants of the Ming to drive Jiannu away, and then fight for the world." ”

ridiculous

disgrace

Monkey business

The generals immediately scolded, the oppression was not Ling Jingyang's bloody battle with the Qing army in Beizhili and Shanxi, everyone really thought he was a traitor, and they couldn't wait to kill him alive now.

"Ladies and gentlemen, after the three battles of Shanhaiguan, Baoding Mansion, and Taiyuan Mansion, who dares to pat their chests and say that they are sure to defeat the Qing army?"

The first time they fought, it could be said that the Qing army was a surprise attack and defeated the Dashun army, but in terms of hard power, many people thought that it was half a catty or two with the Qing army.

But in the next few battles, the officers and soldiers of the Dashun army no longer dared to look down on the Qing army, not only lost a large number of infantry troops, but also killed the former battalion commanders, and the high-level of the Dashun army put away the heart of the enemy.

The Qing army has powerful artillery, and there are hundreds of thousands of green battalion soldiers fighting for the tiger, and the Dashun army seems to be able to continue to fight with the Qing army on the surface, but in fact, it has long been full of holes, as long as the Qing army stabs lightly, it is bound to be defeated like a mountain.

The generals were silent, and at this time, suddenly a person rushed in from outside, and everyone fixed their eyes on it, it was a bloody captain.

When Dang Shousu saw it, he was shocked, isn't this his subordinate Wang Yi?

Wang Yi led 2,000 troops to garrison the Andong Zhongtun guard at the junction of Datong Mansion and Taiyuan Mansion to prevent the Qing army from crossing the border to raid. Army. The Qing army crossed the border. ”

After speaking, Wang Yi fainted and died, and soon after, hundreds of remnants of the defeated army will be withdrawn from the front line, from their mouths, everyone learned that the Qing army launched a surprise attack two days ago, the army of the Dashun army in Andong Zhongtunwei and other places was eliminated, and was attacking Hunyuan City, capturing Hunyuan City, as long as two days to attack Datong City.
