Huguangming's army was defeated, and after the Qing army invaded Sichuan, Zhang Xianzhong was killed, and the situation in the world became precarious again.Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong are both heroes who have been crisscrossing the Central Plains for more than ten years, and they have been tossing the world for many years.But who can know that after the Qing army entered the customs, Li Zicheng was beaten to death by the old peasants, and when he died, the Shun army still had four or five hundred thousand.Zhang Xianzhong was also shot by Ao Bai with an arrow when he watched the battle after Haoge entered Sichuan, and there were also more than 200,000 troops when he died.This is really strange, when Li Zicheng was beaten to only eighteen horsemen, he did not die, Zhang Xianzhong was defeated by Huang Degong several times and did not die, but as soon as he met the Qing army, he died of bad luck.These two people made the world erosive, and after the Qing army entered the customs, they should have taken the responsibility of resisting the Qing army, but the two of them died one after another, and they were very irresponsible, and handed over the responsibility of resisting the Qing army to the Ming Dynasty.At this time, the Ming Dynasty, which had long been tossed by the two and lost its vitality, was obviously difficult to take on the responsibility again.In ancient times, the key to victory was army and food.Needless to say, the Manchu Qing Dynasty already had an absolute advantage, in terms of food, the Qing army occupied Lianghuai and Jiangnan, while the Ming army occupied half of Huguang, the Western Army occupied Sichuan, and the Manchu advantage was not obvious.But now, Zhang Xianzhong was killed, the Western army fled from Sichuan, Sichuan was occupied by the Qing army, and the Qing army defeated the Ming army in Huguang, Hunan was in danger, and the situation became serious.If the Qing army occupied Hunan and the world's granaries fell into the hands of the Manchus, there would be no hope for the Ming Dynasty.Then Zhao Ming could only harass the coast, get supplies, return to the sea, concentrate on the south, occupy Taiwan, Qiongzhou, and Luzon, recuperate, multiply the population, develop science and technology, form a navy, blockade the mainland, force the Manchus to ban the sea, and then wait for Li Dingguo's opportunity to become a famous king.If it doesn't work, then wait for three more rebellions, and the fleet will take the two capitals directly.Of course, these are all plans that have no hope after the Ming Dynasty has no hope.Now, although the Ming Dynasty is in a mess, as long as there is hope, Zhao Ming will not give up.At this time, if the Tartars can be expelled, Zhao Ming will naturally not drag on to the three chaos and make the world dusty.Zhao Ming listened to Zhang Huangyan's words and knew that Zhu Yihai was also working hard, intending to support the Daming Dynasty that was about to collapse.There are many-stirring sticks like Zheng Zhilong and He Tengjiao in the world, but there are not a few people like Zhu Yihai who support Daming with both hands.Zhao Ming thought about it, Zhu Yihai, Zhang Mingzhen, Zheng Chenggong, Du Yinxi, and maybe Li Dingguo in the future will all stretch out their hands to support Daming, they are all people worth relying on.In the battle of eastern Zhejiang, less than half a year has passed, after Zhu Yihai was disabled by Duoduo, his strength was still restored, but he resolutely decided to launch a counterattack, which made Zhao Ming's heart shake.Zhao Ming pondered for a moment, and then said: "Since His Highness has decided, then this Shuai will fully cooperate with His Highness." ”Zhang Huangyanyan's face showed joy when he heard this, but then he said in a consultative tone: "In the battle of the Yangtze River, Pingyubo once relieved the siege of eastern Zhejiang, but this time, His Royal Highness hopes that Pingyubo can send troops to rescue Jinhua in addition to the attack of the naval army!"
”Zhao Ming's advantage is in the naval army, and sending troops to Jinhua is equivalent to the need to go ashore to fight, far away from the coastline.This is actually a very dangerous thing for Zhao Ming, and all the generals in the hall also looked serious.Zhang Huangyan saw Zhao Ming's expression and knew that this request made everyone on Jintang Island a little embarrassed.It stands to reason that he represents Zhu Yihai and can force Zhao Ming to send troops, but Zhu Yihai also has no binding force on Zhao Ming, so Zhang Huangyan is very measured, and did not directly order in the name of Zhu Yihai, but continued to explain in a deliberative tone: "Ping Yubo also knows that in the first battle in eastern Zhejiang, His Royal Highness suffered heavy losses.This time the risk of launching a counteroffensive to relieve the siege of Jinhua was really insufficient.Therefore, His Royal Highness hopes that Ping Yubo can send a team of soldiers and horses to directly rescue Jinhua. ”Zhao Ming has a good understanding of the deployment of the Qing army in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Zhejiang through the Heaven and Earth Society.Since the last battle of the Yangtze River, in order to prevent Zhao Ming from re-entering the Yangtze River, Hong Chengchou built forts along the Yangtze River and left heavy troops to guard the Yangtze River.If the six Dutch warships form a combat force, Zhao Ming will dare to break through, but now, with the strength of Zhao Ming's navy, I am afraid it will be difficult to obtain the effect of entering the Yangtze River for the first time.After Duoduo's main force went to Huguang, the Qing army garrisoned 100,000 troops in Jiangnan and 70,000 soldiers in Zhejiang, and excluding the Qing army stationed in the city, the soldiers and horses that Bolo could mobilize were about 50,000.From this point of view, compared with Jiangnan, Zhejiang's Qing army is obviously weaker.Zhao Ming pondered for a while and asked, "How many troops is Your Highness going to send this time?"
”Zhang Huang said: "Your Royal Highness is preparing to go on a personal expedition, and will mobilize the general Fang Guoan, Dingxi Hou Zhang Mingzhen, Changyi Bo Li Chengdong and other generals to lead the army to the expedition, with a strength of about 30,000 people.In addition, His Royal Highness also sent someone to Xianxia Pass to ask Zheng Guo to send out the army. ”Zheng Chenggong knew very well about the contradiction between Zheng Zhilong and Emperor Longwu, and he was very embarrassed between the two.Zheng Zhilong contacted the Manchu envoys, Zheng Chenggong was not unaware, and after he persuaded Zheng Zhilong to no avail, he asked for orders to lead the army to Xianxia Pass to guard the main road into Fujian.Fujian is mountainous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, plus there is Zhu Yihai in the east, the sea in the south, Liangguang in the southwest, and Gannan in the northwest, all under the control of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing army can kill the road to Fujian, and only Xianxia Pass in the northeast is left.Zheng Chenggong couldn't do anything to Zheng Zhilong, so he decided to hold Xianxia Pass, and as long as the town held this place, the Qing army would not be able to enter Fujian.During the crisis in eastern Zhejiang, Zhu Yihai asked Fujian for help, Zheng Zhilong did not send troops, but Zheng Chenggong led his men and horses out of Xianxia Pass once and fought a battle with the Qing army.Zheng Chenggong's men were all newly recruited troops, and soon after leaving the customs, they were defeated by the Qing army in Chuzhou, and suffered great losses, so they retreated to Xianxia Pass.After the defeat, Zheng Chenggong returned to Fuzhou, prepared ordnance, money and food, and recently returned to Xianxia Pass, and Zhu Yihai also asked him for help.Zhao Ming calculated in his heart that if Zhu Yihai sent 30,000 troops, Zheng Chenggong sent more than 10,000 troops, plus the Qing army contained by the defenders of Jinhua City, then even if he went ashore, he might not be able to fight.In the official hall, everyone discussed, Zhao Ming's expression was cold, his eyes were like torches, he thought for a while, and finally said: "Brother Xuan, since it is the intention of His Royal Highness, this marshal promised to send elite soldiers to rescue Jinhua."
However, Ben Shuai still needs some time to prepare before he can send troops!
”Zhang Huang was overjoyed when he heard this, "Pingyu Bowei is famous, and the Qing army is terrified when he hears it, as long as Pinglubo sends troops, it will be a big deal!"
