Last year, in May of the year of Yiyou, for many years, the thief Li Zicheng, who dragged down the Ming Dynasty, died under the hoe of the old peasant in Tongshan County, Hubei, and the Dashun court, which had just been established, was defeated.Li Zicheng ironically died at the hands of the peasants, he left suddenly, and did not point out a direction to the remnants of the Shun army, which had been repeatedly defeated, leaving only a huge mess.Li Zicheng disturbed the world and made the alien race take advantage of the void, and he seized the Ming Dynasty, but he couldn't stop the alien race, and made a wedding dress for the alien race, which can be described as harming others and himself, and there is no commendable merit in his life.The only thing worth saying is that because of his personal existence, a Zhejiang person in later generations has firmly implemented a set of strategies of "fighting outside must first settle inside".After Li Zicheng was killed, the Great Shun Dynasty, which once ruled the entire Yellow River valley and the northern part of Huguang, completely collapsed, and the remaining eastern and western Shun armies flowed into Huguang and became Liukou again, but they still had strong strength.At this time, after the death of Li Zicheng, the main force of the Qing army in Hubei had returned to the north with Azig, and the Ming army in Hunan was not the opponent of the Shun army.However, after Li Zicheng's death, the Shun army faced the same problems as the Southern Ming court, and there was no one with high prestige who could convince the people to lead the Shun army.The Shun army has suffered successive military defeats, and the pattern in the Great Shun army has changed.It turned out that the main force of the Dashun army, in the process of fighting with the Qing army, suffered heavy losses, Liu Zongmin, the head of the generals, was captured and killed, not to mention, Zehou Tian Jianxiu, whose status was second only to Liu Zongmin, was beaten to only 7,000 foot soldiers, the soldiers and horses were not as good as an ordinary general, there was no prestige at all, Liu Fangliang only had 10,000 people left, and Yuan Zongdi, the general of the right battalion system, only had 3,000 people left, and Wu Ruyi was beaten into a bare pole.Compared with the main force of the Great Shun Army, the Shun Army's partial division was not the target of the Qing Army's key attack, but it still used strong troops, such as the general Hao Shaoqi with 40,000 troops, and Wang Jincai with 76,000 people.In this case, the original system of the Dashun Army will inevitably collapse, and it will not be able to form a unified command, and it will not be able to cooperate with the Southern Ming as a whole like the Western Army.Nanming joined thieves to resist the Qing Dynasty twice, once with the Shun army and once with the Western army, and the strength of the Shun army should be stronger than the Western army, but after the union, the strength shown by the Shun army and the Western army was completely different.The key reason for this is that the Western Army took itself as the main body and forced the Ming Dynasty to unite, while the Shun Army did not form a main body, and they dispersed into the Ming Dynasty.In the union, the Western Army occupied a dominant position and seized the command of the anti-Qing Dynasty and avoided being pitted by Nanming, while the Shun Army gave up the command and was always pitted, resulting in two peasant armies with different performances.Last year, when Zhao Ming suggested that Emperor Longwu recruit the rest of the Shun army and join Shun to resist the Qing Dynasty, the Dashun West Route Army was also looking for a way out, and arrived in Liuyang in August, approaching Changsha, and asked to join forces with He Tengjiao, the governor of Daming Huguang, to resist the Qing.At that time, He Tengjiao fought a battle with the Shun army, but was defeated by the Shun army, seeing that Changsha was not safe, and when he was about to flee, he learned that the Shun army was not to attack Changsha, but to seek appeasement and wanted to join forces to resist the Qing.He Tengjiao only had a few officers and troops such as Zhang Xianbi and Huang Chaoxuan, and they could not compete with the Shun army, and at this time, the will of Emperor Longwu was transmitted to Huguang, requiring He Tengjiao and Du Yinxi to appease the Shun army.At this time, Tong Yanghe, the governor of Huguang in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, was also recruiting the Shun army, intending to use the Shun army to sweep away the Ming army in Hunan.Tong Yanghe's situation is somewhat similar to He Tengjiao's, after he accepted Wuchang, the main force of the Qing army left Hubei, and he only had a few Qing soldiers in his hands, and a part of the Shun army.The two of them did not have many troops, and whoever won the surrender of the Shun army would control the overall situation of Huguang.Tong Yanghe tried his best to appease him, but because of the shaving of his head, most of the Shun army chose to go south to Changsha and join forces with the Ming army.This was a rare opportunity for the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Longwu intended to surrender, and the Shun army intended to unite, which was originally a good thing to hit it off.If the Shun army is surrendered, the Huguang Ming army will be enough to crush Tong Yanghe's Qing army in terms of strength, and it is very likely to recover Jingzhou, Wuchang, and Xiangyang.In this way, with Xianghan in hand and Huguang stable, the Ming army of Chu can threaten Jin Shenghuan, cooperate with the Ming army of southern Jiangxi to recover Jiangxi, and even go down the river to recover Nanjing.But He Tengjiao is the same character as Shi Kefa, who is very loyal to the Ming Dynasty, but he is also loyal.Because of the will, He Tengjiao reached a "joint venture" agreement with the Shun army, but he was prejudiced against the Shun army who was born in a rogue.At that time, Wu Jinxi, the superintendent of the army, learned that the Xilu Shun army had surrendered, and excitedly suggested to He Tengjiao, "Duxian has 200,000 soldiers, and he should drive it north, recover Chudi, and respond to Zhejiang and Jiangxi!"
”He Tengjiao was panicked because there were no more than 10,000 officers and soldiers, but the Shun army had 200,000 people, and did not adopt Wu Jinxi's words and gave up the opportunity to go north, but followed the advice of the governor Fu Shangrui, started an internal fight, and decided to divide and disintegrate the Shun army.He was very keenly aware of the discord within the Shun army, so he took the opportunity to win over Hao Shaoqi, Wang Jincai and others, who had a low status in the Shun army and had many troops, and made them officials Xu Jue, gave them money and food, and accepted them as cronies, but they were very discriminatory against Tian Jianxiu, Liu Fangliang, Yuan Zongdi and other princes of the Great Shun Dynasty, and deliberately created estrangement within the Shun army to achieve the goal of dividing and systematizing.In this regard, a group of veterans of the Shun army were naturally dissatisfied in their hearts, and He Tengjiao neither gave them a place to settle a station, nor provided food and salary, so they could not gain a foothold in Hunan at all, so in a fit of anger, they led their troops to leave Changsha and join forces with the Shun army on the West Road who withdrew from Hanzhong to Huguang, and then make plans.Shun army and He Tengjiao joint camp, the general Manchu Huguang Governor Tong Yanghe was frightened, he suddenly heard that most of the Shun army, negative anger, left Changsha, immediately overjoyed, happy said: "This day to help the Qing Dynasty!"
”After Li Zicheng's death, the Shun army had no way out, either surrendering to Qing or Lianming.When Tong Yanghe saw that the Shun army left Changsha and entered the land of northern Hunan and western Hubei, he knew that they had no way out, so he immediately sent envoys to take the opportunity to appease the Shun army.At this time, the main force of the Qing army had already invaded eastern Zhejiang, forcing Fujian, and after Emperor Longwu received Zhu Yihai's request for help, he immediately summoned Zheng Zhilong to send reinforcements, but Zheng Zhilong refused.If the Qing army captured Zhejiang, Fujian must not be defended, Emperor Longwu begged Zheng Zhilong, but Zheng Zhilong still refused to send troops, so the emperor could only send an edict to Gannan and Huguang, so that the two places counterattacked, contained the Qing army, and shared the pressure for Zhejiang.The will was transmitted to Huguang, but He Tengjiao was stunned.After forcing the main force of the Shun army on the west road, He Tengjiao was quite complacent at first, but when he was told in detail, Tong Yanghe, the governor of Huguang in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, was in contact with the Shun army who was forced away by him, and entrusted him with the land of Huguang, and promised the high-ranking officials Houjue, so that the Dashun army would surrender to the Qing court, and when he waved his army south to take Hunan, He Tengjiao reacted and realized that he had made a big mistake.At this time, after the convergence of the eastern and western armies, the strength of the army reached more than 300,000, and if these 300,000 people surrendered to the south, the overall situation of Hunan would immediately collapse.At that time, Zhejiang was defeated, Hunan was defeated, and the Ming Dynasty was powerless to return to heaven.He Tengjiao received the order, but he didn't say that he went north to contain the Qing army, and whether he could protect himself was a question.He Tengjiao, who has a very good way to deal with his own people, has no strategy at all in the face of external threats.At this time, Zhao Ming had mentioned to Emperor Longwu that the governor of Hunan, Du Yinxi, stood up, and he was ordered to go to the camp of the Shun army in person to persuade the Shun army to surrender, so as to reverse the situation.Changde Mansion, on the edge of Lishui, outside the camp, Du Yinxi only took ten followers and galloped to the front of the camp.In the camp of the Shun army, a general immediately led the cavalry to gallop out, surrounded Du Yinxi and others, and shouted and asked: "Who dares to break into the Dashun military camp?"
”Plugging Yinxi grabbed the reins of the horse, glanced at the cavalry of the Shun army, and said majestically, "My Daming Hunan Governor Blocking Yinxi!"
