Chapter 109: Crushing
Henan Province, in the big tent of the Qing army, Fukangan sat in the account, looking at the military reports coming and going, his scalp was a little numb. How could the Great Qing Kingdom have eroded to this point in just a few months.
The two provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou, the two provinces of Guangzhou, the two provinces of Jiangsu, the provinces of Shaanxi and Gansu, Sichuan, Anhui, Zhejiang, and Jiangxi, and most of the Great Qing Dynasty have fallen, can they still be saved? What kind of forces are on the other side? The officials of the entire Great Qing Kingdom have not figured out how to fight this battle?
Enemy!
After a short time, a soldier came to report and said to Fukangan: "Marshal, the rebels have gathered a million and marched towards Jiangsu. ”
Fukangan stared at the soldiers who reported the news and asked, "What else?" What are the movements of the rebels in Shaanxi, Hubei, and Anhui?"
"Marshal Qi, the rebels in these three areas are only on the defensive, and there is no sign of attack. ”
"Let's explore!" said Fukangan.
After the soldier left, Fukangan touched his head, remembered the situation again, and became angry for a while, threw the arrow box to the ground, and scolded: "Bastard." Millions of troops, what do they eat, where do they get their ordnance supplies? Those bastards in the capital, don't have any ideas?"
"You know impeachment, impeachment, impeachment of your uncle. If you don't understand anything, you know nonsense! Attack, Lao Tzu also wants to attack, what to fight?"
After venting, he sat down weakly. secretly thought to himself that if it weren't for his strong background, maybe he would have fallen into the impeachment of these bastards. When is it, still fighting for power!
Picking up the military newspaper and looking at the number of rebels on it, my scalp couldn't help tingling. One million, two million, three million, where did so many rebels come from? However, when I think of the situation when I put down the rebellion in Henan, I know that this is not a lie about the military situation, it is true.
200,000 troops quelled the rebellion in Henan, how tired it was, every city, every place, needed a big war. Yes, these rebels do have a single armament, but they can't stand a lot of people.
There were tens of thousands of rebels in one city, and they defeated the whole of Henan, reduced their own troops by 80,000 or 90,000, and killed and wounded hundreds of thousands of rebels. How many cities are there in most of the occupied areas, and how many rebels are there?
It is so difficult to attack an unorganized Henan, not to mention, the rest is now the distribution of forces. After thinking about it, he shouted: "Come on, call General Hailancha." ”
"Tsk. ”
After a while, a mighty man came to the tent, this is Hailancha, Hailancha, a general of Qianlong, a man with a yellow flag in Manchuria, a Dolal clan, and a brave and good fighter.
"Hailancha, what do you dare to do now, the number of rebels is too large, and our little force can't withstand it at all. Fukangan sat down and said.
"Marshal, we have also recruited more than 100,000 troops in the past few days, although they have not been on the battlefield, but they are very good soldiers after training for a while. Moreover, the imperial court has already asked General A Gui to lead troops to Shandong. "Highlanza said it forcefully.
"How many troops did Gui bring?" asked Fukangan.
"It doesn't seem to be much, these troops seem to have been transferred from Mongolia, and specific information has not yet been transmitted. Highlancha said.
"It's not much, what is the situation now! Why are we still dividing our troops, and how powerful our opponents are, haven't the ministers of the DPRK and China considered it?" asked Fukangan in disbelief.
Hailan looked at Fukangan, opened her mouth, and said nothing.
Fukangan looked at Hailancha's expression and understood. In the final analysis, is it distrust? Or is the minister of the DPRK and China afraid of his own meritorious service?" "Hahaha, ridiculous, ridiculous. Could it be that none of the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee understand it? The Great Qing Kingdom is still like this when it looks like it is about to die?" Fukangan laughed very madly, like he was laughing at a group of fools.
......
Shandong Province, a battalion of more than 100,000 Qing troops, Ah Gui sat on the handsome seat, looking at the battle reports.
A Gui, a native of the Blue Banner of Manchuria, Zhang Jia's family, the word Guangting, the number Yunya, and later carried into the Zhengbai Banner with his Xinjiang military exploits. The son of the university scholar Acton, a famous general of the Qing Dynasty. Born on the third day of August in the 56th year of Kangxi (1717), due to his illustrious family background, he was very proud when he was a teenager. But the successive blows that followed made him wake up.
Now he is a veteran who has been tempered by war, but he is still surprised when he sees the description in the military newspaper. He knew that there was a lot of fighting on the front line, but he didn't expect the situation to be so erosive.
Seeing the strength of the rebels reported by the army, it was even more of a headache. You must know that the total strength of the Great Qing Kingdom does not exceed two million, but what about the rebels in front of them? There are more than five million in a rough calculation, how can this battle be fought?
It took two years to pacify the Dzungar Department that had not been extinguished by the Kang and Yong dynasties, but that was only a lot of troops. What about now? The rebels on the other side are as high as several million, to put it mildly, people can drown themselves with a mouthful of spit, how can they fight?
The views of Fukangan and Ah Gui are probably all the views of the front-line army. There were too many rebels.
While the two were arranging the defensive line, Emperor Yidao, the leader of the overlord world, and Liu Yuanhua, the boss of the Shuiyue Cave Heaven, launched an attack on Jiangsu Province with an army of four million.
Wherever the army passed, there were too few who could stubbornly resist to the end, and if you think about it, anyone who sees the rain of arrows that covers the sky and the sun will not be indifferent. This is not a show of courage, a bow and arrow that resists a millions of troops, it is simply an act of seeking death.
It's a bit arrogant, but it's definitely not an exaggeration. In just half a month, the entire Jiangsu was controlled by the two.
When the military report was delivered to Fukangan and Ah Gui, the two of them just watched silently, without any words, and any words no longer mattered. The two of them can only desperately defend their defenses and try their best to block the rebels' attacks.
On 20 March, the 500,000-strong army of the Shaanxi Army marched to Shanxi under the leadership of Han Yuntian, Zheng Huanghuang, and Zhang Fengyun; Ma Zhan and Xiao Tianshu led a 4 million coalition army to Henan; and Emperor Yidao and Liu Yuanhua led the integrated 5 million coalition army to Shandong.
In 20 days, the army led by Ma Zhan and Xiao Tianshu took only 20 days to defeat the 300,000 troops of the Fukangan Department and could only retreat backwards.
At the same time, the five million army led by Emperor Yidao and Liu Yuanhua is also eating away at Ah Gui's defense line step by step, and it may not take long to swallow it in one bite.
The 500,000-strong army of Zhang Fengyun, Zheng Huanghuang, and Han Yuntian destroyed everywhere in Shanxi Province, making it impossible to take care of the whole thing.
Fukangan led the remnants of the army to retreat continuously, and the military reports were sent to the capital one after another;
