Chapter 0155: How Many People Can There Be in the Eight Banners

Faced with He Zhen's question, Qin Zuoming asked rhetorically: "If you are the real He Zhen, then I am the real Qin Zuoming."

I tell you my real name just to tell you that my sincerity and the basis of cooperation between us.

Whether you believe it or not, now I am the nine masters of Qingfeng Zhai, and I have enough strength to talk to you, what do you say? ”

After listening to these words, He Zhen immediately stopped worrying, Saiwolong is Qin Zuoming, it is a good thing for himself.

At least everyone has turned the official army into a bystander's force.

"Brother Qin is really atmospheric." He Zhen laughed twice to ease the embarrassment:

"To tell you the truth, I, He Zhen, also want to oppose the Qing Dynasty, otherwise I wouldn't have come to the appointment.

It's just that the imperial court wants to join forces to fight against the thieves, and there is the persuasion of Wu Sangui and others, so I have to listen to the words of the imperial court, and I have to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, but in fact, I am in Cao Ying's heart in Han. ”

"I didn't clear it." Sun Shoufa emphasized.

Qin Zuoming smiled and took over the stubble: "Now that the Southern Ming Dynasty is afraid that it will not be able to hold it, we still have to rely on ourselves to resist the Qing Dynasty." ”

"Huh?" He Zhen was slightly stunned, and then asked, "Did Brother Qin hear any rumors?" ”

Because he knew that Qin Zuoming had an old relationship with the Dashun army, otherwise he would not let go of Li Guo and Gao Yigong's team.

"Li Zicheng, he conquered Nanjing?" Sun Shoufa only knew the strategic intentions of the Dashun army.

"No, Li Zicheng is fighting with Azig hotly, and he is still too busy to take care of himself, how can he have time to attack Nanjing." Qin Zuoming snorted: "It was Duoduo of the Qing army who led the army south. ”

"As far as I know, there are only a few tens of thousands of horses in the hands of Dord, and most of them are generals.

There are hundreds of thousands of troops in the four towns of Jiangbei near Nanjing, plus Zuo Liangyu's million army, even if Li Zicheng and Duoduo attack together, it is impossible! ”

Qin Zuoming snorted: "Two of you, a million army, do you believe it?" ”

According to everyone's experience, the good habit of eating empty wages is naturally continued.

"Even if there are no million, there are still 300,000 people under Zuo Liangyu." He Zhen analyzed seriously: "300,000 horses, if you defend the city and don't fight with the Qing army, it is enough!" ”

"In the battle of Zhuxian Town, Zuo Liangyu's elite soldiers were strangled by Li Zicheng, and the rest were mostly rabble, and he guarded the upper reaches of the Yangtze River."

Qin Zuoming directly told them the news he had received: "But when Li Zicheng's troops entered the Xiangyang area of Hubei Province through Shangluo in Shaanxi Province and Dengzhou in western Henan Province under the pursuit of the Qing army Azig,

Zuo Liangyu did not dare to fight with the main force of the Dashun army, and repeated the old trick and led his troops to the east along the river.

Nanjing was making a lot of trouble over the fake prince and the "child concubine" and other cases, and the assumption of power by Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng caused strong dissatisfaction among the official gentry, which provided Zuo Liangyu with an excuse to avoid the war and go east.

Zuo Liangyu pretended to be sent to Nanjing by the secret order of the prince of the first emperor, and in the name of crusading against Ma Shiying, the whole army went down the river by boat, and when he left, he ordered the residents of Wuchang to be slaughtered. ”

He Zhen and Sun Shoufa both sighed, Zuo Liangyu has long become a big tail, this person supports the army and is self-respecting, has the courage to abuse the people, and is afraid of the big war.

"The Qing army is going south, Zuo Liangyu and the four towns of Jiangbei are still fighting inwardly, more than one million troops, what is the use?"

Qin Zuoming snorted and said: "Especially Ma Shiying knew that the Qing army had entered northern Jiangsu with heavy troops, but he instigated Hongguang to give Shi Kefa a warrant and asked him to transfer troops to defend Nanjing.

Because Ma Shiying was afraid that it was him who was the Qing Emperor of Zuo Liangyu, as for the Qing army going south, he had long been prepared to coerce the emperor to continue to flee south, and he had no intention of guarding Nanjing at all. ”

"In this way, Nanjing is also very likely to fall into the hands of the Qing army?" He Zhen was a little shocked, how could Qin Zuoming know so much information.

"Remove the possibility, and I think Ma Shiying's ability, I'm afraid that even the emperor won't be able to keep it, and then I will have to set up a new one."

"Ah, this!" He Zhen and the others didn't expect Qin Zuoming to say so boldly.

He is Mrs. Qin's nephew, and it seems that being a bandit has a great influence on him, and he doesn't even have it on his lips when he says Zhongjun.

Although everyone has no concept of loyalty, they are not as indifferent as Qin Zuoming.

Even if they actually did more than what Qin Zuoming said!

He Zhen laughed, after all, everyone used to be loyal and good generals!

Qin Zuoming paused and said: "Infighting will only make the Qing army proud, so I want to contact you and wait until the time comes to raise the anti-Qing banner." ”

"Brother Qin, I can't hide it, I have the heart to resist the Qing." He Zhen also expressed her attitude:

"The Qing army in Shaanxi is slightly weaker, and the main force is all going south, so we might as well take Shaanxi as the foundation for the time being."

"Yes, yes, I can also contact Wu Dading and others, but I will definitely be able to turn the world upside down." Sun Shoufa smiled: "It can also be regarded as containing the Qing army going south and fighting for Nanjing for some more time." ”

"Nope."

The two of them were a little confused, although it was of little use, could it be that Qin Zuoming wanted to see His Majesty being caught by the dog Tartar?

Qin Zuoming directly rejected this suggestion: "Is it important to quell the rebellion in Shaanxi, or is it more important to conquer Nanjing for Duoduo and others?" ”

"Naturally, it is more important to break through the enemy's capital." He Zhen nodded, even if there was chaos in Shaanxi, the Qing army would not turn back easily.

It was only a matter of time before Nanjing was breached by the Tartars.

"In that case, the two of you are not in a hurry, you can go back and contact the old department and old acquaintances."

Qin Zuoming grabbed the reins and said, "The Qing army has suffered a big loss from me, and it will definitely send a large army here."

When the time comes, you let them enter the river, and I will fight in the front, and you will block their back roads in the back, cutting off their grain and grass.

Maybe it's not a matter of the Han army's blue flag, and it's not a problem to kill one or two princes. ”

"That's a good idea." Sun Shoufa immediately agreed.

He Zhen also nodded, and then asked: "Brother Qin, I can't hide it, the strategy is a good strategy, but whether we can win or not, the combat power of the Qing army is not low." ”

"How many people are there in the Eight Banners of Manchuria? Less than 60,000 people entered the Eight Banners. ”

"What about the Mongolian Eight Banners? Less than 30,000 people. ”

"What remains is the 200,000 Han Eight Banners that have expanded rapidly in just over a year."

"Since the Tatars entered the customs, you think about it, most of them first used Han generals to quell rebellions in various places and attack Li Zicheng."

"Almost all of their elite soldiers are reserved for the crushing of the formation, if we find an opportunity to destroy their 60,000 men.

The remaining Menghan Eight Banners, without deterrence on their heads, will they still be single-minded towards the Qing court? ”

"Well, that's right." Sun Shoufa suddenly brightened, and laughed twice:

"The three banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty were to be stationed in Beijing, and the two banners controlled by Dolgon were to control Beijing as the capital in power.

There won't be many people in the Manchu Eight Banners who really send troops to fight, and we have a good chance of winning! ”
