Chapter 31: The Storm, the Country, and Others
Although in his opinion, he already attaches great importance to the other party, but how can the 100,000 or so people's army, the main backbone, but only four or five thousand people, how to bargain in front of the new army that is well-equipped and ready to go. ▃ ( ˇ?ˇ )▃
The Great War broke out less than two hundred miles away from Jiqing Mansion. From the very beginning, Luo Rucai planned to rely on numerical superiority and the number of people to overwhelm the officers and soldiers in front of him. If he doesn't completely break up the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, after this soldier and horse, who knows if there are any reinforcements coming.
Moreover, he also saved the meaning of competing with Li Zicheng, the reinforcements of the officers and soldiers in the east appeared, there is no doubt that they came for Kaifeng Mansion, and his troops, most of them are in the northeast and south of Kaifeng, that is Li Zicheng's men and horses, the things in this world, I am afraid that it is a comparison of goods, if he is in the battle of defeating the officers and soldiers, he is better than Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses, then he will undoubtedly become the most shining point of the Kaifeng battle at this moment.
Kaifeng City is just around the corner, he doesn't have the slightest suspicion, with his subordinates' fine' sharp, even if there is no Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses in it, he also has enough confidence, the thousands of soldiers under Chen Yongfu in the city are not heavenly soldiers, even if he uses his name to change, he can also grind his soldiers clean, at this time, the significance of the total annihilation of reinforcements is greater than the direct attack on Kaifeng.
If the city knew that the reinforcements were running out, how long would they be able to support it?
The ideal is plump, and the reality is the backbone. As soon as the two horses collided, he found that his judgment might be biased. No, it's not that there was a deviation, but that there was a fundamental mistake, and he shouldn't have squandered his forces like this.
Yu Feng's battle array, from the very beginning, has always maintained superior, uninterrupted firepower output, and his newly established artillery team, in this kind of densely populated battlefield, played a huge role, almost not a single shell down, can plow in the dense crowd, plough like a blood ditch, take away dozens of lives, and Yu Feng used to rely on a swarm of bees, in the hair. After two rounds of shooting, it is impossible to keep up with the rhythm of the war, this kind of feather arrow, hurting a lot of people, but like a cannon, it is impossible to kill with a direct blow. For those outcasts, it was not a matter at all to have a few arrows on their bodies to fight.
The war was not one-sided, at least, at the very beginning, not like that. A thousand-man phalanx of Yu Feng at the forefront, in the desperate charge of the Wandering People's Army, at the beginning of the battle, was drowned in the great 'tide' of the Wandering Army, despite the desperate response of the left and right wings, this thousand-man team resisted desperately, but when the second echelon of Yu Feng pushed up, the fire soldiers of this phalanx were withdrawn, only thirty percent, and the hook spear and sword and shield hands were almost killed.
Luo Rucai's army, after paying the price of five or six thousand people, finally crippled Yu Feng's thousand-man team, which was still the result of his vision and ordering to abandon his two wings and attack the front with all his might. Such a result not only did not reassure him, but on the contrary, made him feel even more frightened. Because, such a phalanx is just a drop in the ocean for the officers and soldiers' soldiers and horses, and that's it, he also gnawed so hard, and this time, all his decisive men and horses were almost exhausted, and he wanted to count on other homeless people to rush and kill like just now, then he didn't want to count on it, if he forcibly gave the order, he was afraid that the officers and soldiers had not yet 'messed up', and there would be a big problem on his side.
He was still thinking about the next strategy, but Yu Feng didn't give him much time, the first echelon of two almost complete thousand-person phalanxes, and the second echelon of three phalanxes, finished zigzags, began to assault towards their own formation, and the flanks, a large number of rangers also appeared, which was clearly a decisive battle posture.
Moreover, the officers and men were clearly obedient, and they no longer held up the big ones, but maintained a tight formation, kept their distance from his men and horses, and methodically harvested his men with artillery and firearms. He can only use his own men and horses little by little to block the footsteps of the officers and soldiers, of course, the cavalry is his old foundation, he will never use it, even if these infantry cannon fodder is all gone, he can pull out so many men and horses with his own cavalry team in a month or two.
His choice was very correct, in fact, the worst he thought of was in front of him, and it really happened. When the whole army collapsed, he decisively led his cavalry team to quickly leave the battlefield, and with the obstruction of thousands of defeated soldiers on the battlefield, the cavalry of officers and soldiers would not be able to catch up with him for a while.
In February of the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, Luo Rucai more than 100,000 soldiers and horses and officers and soldiers fought in Jiqing, and the officers and soldiers won a great victory, and Luo Rucai led 3,000 light horsemen to escape.
At the end of February, the exile army was infighting, and Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, set up a banquet to entertain Luo Rucai, and killed him during the banquet, and Luo Rucai's troops were all merged into Li Chuang's department.
In March, Yu Feng's new army arrived near Kaifeng, and at the crossing of the Yellow River, Yu Li Zicheng's army was defeated. At this time, the imperial court rescued Kaifeng's reinforcements from all walks of life has gradually 'approached', Li Zicheng judged the situation and decided to give up Kaifeng, return to Luoyang, and the crisis of Kaifeng was solved.
In May, according to the decree of the imperial court, Yu Feng left 5,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Tianjin, and all the rest of the horses returned to Korea by sea. At the end of May, the Joseon dynasty issued an edict to canonize Yu Feng as a general and governor of Korean military affairs. At the same time, the Ming court also crowned Yu Feng as General Zhenyuan, the chief military officer of North Korea, and the rank of 'squire' of the military department, giving him the right to arbitrarily make special plans. Yu Feng became a veritable king of Joseon, both in law and in substance.
In the autumn of the fourteenth year, the Qing Dynasty went south again to herd horses, and the Korean general Zhenyuan, according to the holy decree of the Ming Emperor, waved his army to attack the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing court quickly mobilized a large army, intending to defeat the military horses belonging to the Korean general Zhenyuan in one fell swoop. However, at this time, General Zhenyuan's soldiers and horses have exceeded 100,000, and the generals are like clouds.
Thirteen battles in a row, the battle was successful, and the Qing Dynasty had to urgently recall the soldiers and horses who had entered the customs. However, at this moment, the Ming Dynasty has reached a consensus, and it is 'wanted' to echo General Zhenyuan's distant thoughts, and to eliminate the northern troubles of these decades. Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses were pacified everywhere in the country, and they were constantly transferred to Xuanfu, Datong, Ji, and Liao, and they set up heavy troops at Shanhaiguan, blocking the road to the north of the Tartars.
As a result, General Zhenyuan has been in the capital of Shengjing, and he has not encountered the effective resistance of the main force of the Qing Dynasty. Under the unwillingness of Huang Taiji, the Qing Dynasty fled far to the north of the desert, and for a while, the seemingly powerful Qing Dynasty fell apart.
The Ming officers and soldiers who blocked the return of the Tartars in the country also paid enough price, in order to completely annihilate the strong and nowhere of the Tartars, the military strength of the Ming Dynasty almost suffered more than fifty percent casualties, but despite this, when the last Tartar was awarded, it was still celebrated by the whole country, and the prestige of the Chongzhen Emperor and the Ming court reached its peak for a while.
However, the snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit, and when the Ming Dynasty is still in a happy atmosphere from now on, there is no more northern trouble, Li Zicheng gathered millions of people, the founding of the country called the emperor, the country name Dashun. And raised troops from Luoyang and began the eastward crusade.
At this moment, the Ming Dynasty's 'elite' sharp loss was seventy-seven, eighty-eight, and all the prefectures and counties were empty. Wherever the Dashun army went, the lookers were invincible. In just a few months, almost half of the rivers and mountains have been taken. For a while, the Ming Dynasty actually had the atmosphere that the society was about to fall.
In desperation, Da Ming started the idea of General Zhenyuan again. The relationship between General Zhenyuan and the Ming Dynasty, there is almost no unclear in the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, although this General Zhenyuan, although it seems to obey the dispatch of the imperial court, but it is also a 'color' who listens to the tune and does not listen to the announcement, and at this moment, he has countless "elite" soldiers and strong generals, and it has already become a big trend. If you want to let him lead the army into the customs with a holy decree, I am afraid it is not realistic.
Sending troops to fight the Tartars, that is a visible benefit, saying that it is a crusade against the Qing Dynasty by the holy decree of the Ming Emperor, which is just a favor. However, this guy is already the chief military officer of North Korea, what benefits do you need to give him before he can be said to send troops, is he the king?
Yes, it is the king of the king, although the Chongzhen Dynasty, a king with a different surname has not come out, but, this example, today will be opened from Yu Feng, if that Li broke into the Beijing Division, the Ming Dynasty is gone, what is the use of this king is not a king, if it is such a title, it can be exchanged for 100,000 'elite' sharp, and the fool will not change it.
Chongzhen and his courtiers are not fools.
In the fifteenth year of 'spring', Yu Feng was crowned the king, and his name was Kaiping King. The will of the knight clearly stated that the territory occupied by Yu Feng is now all his fiefdom, the so-called King of Kaiping, which means to open up the meaning of peace, and to open up the territory is to expand the territory, and the peace is naturally to pacify the night. Yu Feng happily accepted it. Half a month later, an army of 100,000 was ordered to enter the customs from Shanhaiguan to quell the thieves.
While the imperial court stepped up its training of the new army, it closely watched the game between Kaiping Wang Jun and Li Chuangjun. After all, it is a strong army that has been fought by thousands of troops, swords, mountains and seas of blood, and Yu Feng's army has never disappointed them since they appeared on the stage. Li Zicheng's military strength is far inferior to that of the Tartars, but he has a large number of people under his command, from fifteen to sixteen years, during which Yu Feng Yu Feng also went to Hunan and Sichuan to take a turn, and cleaned up Zhang Xianzhong, who was waving the flag and shouting behind Li Zicheng.
Seventeen years of 'spring', Li Zicheng's last force of people, in Hunan Shi'men', was tightly surrounded by the soldiers and horses of Yu Feng, Li Zicheng desperate, wielding a sword to kill himself, a generation of heroes, and finally became a bowl of loess.
Yu Feng's class returned to the dynasty, and the world was decided.
In the autumn of the seventeenth year, Chongzhen Zen was located in Yufeng, Yufeng ascended the throne, and the country was named "Hua"!
