Although Zhao Ming wanted to capture Shenyang and give the Manchus a heavy blow, Shenyang was too far away from the land, and there were Dai Shan and nearly 10,000 Manchu men left behind, so after Zhao Ming took Gaizhou, he just bluffed and did not go deep into the hinterland of the Liao River.Zhang Xianzhong attacked Fengyang that year, giving the Ming Dynasty a great blow, if Zhao Ming can capture Shenyang and destroy Nurhachi's mausoleum, it will inevitably be able to hit the Manchus politically.Although it is only a tomb, people in the world do not think so, the ancestral graves have been dug up, which is equivalent to the destruction of the dragon veins of the Manchu Dynasty, which will make many people doubt whether the Manchus can win the world, thereby weakening the strength of the Manchus.Although Zhao Ming's army is strong, the infantry army is not an opponent of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and can only operate within 100 miles of the coast, and does not dare to go deep into the interior.This time Zhao Ming was just bluffing, but he actually wanted to take Shenyang in his heart, and if he can't do it now, it doesn't mean that he won't work in the future, and for this goal, he will gradually implement the plan to attack Shenyang.When the Duoduo army galloped thousands of miles and arrived in Shenyang, Zhao Ming was standing at the southernmost tip of the Liaodong Peninsula, in the Dalian region of later generations.In March, the grass grows and the warbler flies in Liaodong, located in the southernmost part of Liaodong, the former site of Jinzhouwei, and the four fields are already overgrown with weeds.At this time, Zhao Ming and a group of people, riding horses and stationed in the south of the former site of Jinzhouwei, he was on a hill, his eyes scanned the wilderness, you can see the Han villages in Liaodong that were burned down by the Qing army many years ago, as well as the Jinzhou Acropolis that was destroyed.In a barren field of weeds, these ruins are covered with weeds and swallowed up, like the ruins of a vanished civilization.The Qing army captured Shenyang and Liaoyang, and after the collapse of the Ming Dynasty's rule in Liaodong, Dongjiang Town was active in Jinzhou Wei and built a fortress, but later the Qing army captured Jinzhou, and the Qing army destroyed all the fortress villages in order to prevent the Ming army from entrenching here, and the population was also taken away as flag slaves.At this time, Zhao Ming and the others galloped all the way, and they didn't meet a single figure in the wilderness, there were grass, trees, mountains and forests everywhere, as well as all kinds of birds and beasts.Because of the massacre of Jiannu, the population outside the customs decreased sharply, after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the vast majority of the Eight Banners dragged their families into the customs, hundreds of thousands of banner slaves and clothed slaves, also followed the Manchu Qing Dynasty into the Guannei, there are only a few cities such as Shenyang outside the Guan, and some populations, most of the areas, are like the ruins of Jinzhouwei, there are no living people to live.This is also the reason why Duoduo believes that Zhao Ming can't stay outside the customs for a long time, there is no food and no food to eat, and the Ming army naturally can't stay long.Thinking that back then, Mao Wenlong was in the east and the Ningjin defense line was in the west, trapping the Qing Kingdom in Liaozhong, Duoduo knew how miserable the Qing Kingdom was at that time, and how many minions starved to death.In the bitter cold land outside the pass, Zhao Ming couldn't gain a foothold at all, if it weren't for Zhao Ming's claim that he would attack Shenyang and pick up Nurhachi's mausoleum, Duoduo would not have paid attention to Zhao Ming at all.At this time, Zhao Ming and others galloped all the way to Nanguanling in the south of Weizhi, Jinzhou.To the south of Nanguanling is the Luda area, to the north is Jinzhou, and to the east and west is the sea, and between the two seas, there is only about twelve or thirteen miles of land.That is to say, as long as a 123-mile city wall is built in Nanguanling, it can connect the two seas, block the Qing army in the north, and enclose Lushun and Dalian."
Ben Shuai built a long wall here, enclosing a hundred miles of land behind him, fishing and grazing horses, what do you think?"
Zhao Ming raised his horsewhip and pointed to Nanguanling Road.Guo Zhong licked his lips, shook his head and said: "Dashuai, Mao Shuai also built a wall and fort here, but before the fortress was built, the Qing army and the horse army suddenly killed and destroyed the fortress and the wall, and Dongjiang Town was seriously damaged.If the marshal wants to build a wall, it will be difficult to succeed in a year and a half, and the cavalry of the Qing army will be able to kill it in a few days from Shenyang, and the general will think that the wall is difficult to build!
”When Zhao Ming heard this, he frowned slightly, but he didn't want to give up, he muttered: "Outside the gate is the nest of Jiannu, if this marshal is in Liaodong, stationing a team of soldiers and horses, threatening Shenyang, Jiannu will not tolerate it."
At that time, Jiannu will definitely increase the number of troops outside the Guan, so as to reduce the pressure on the official army and the righteous army in the Guan.This southern pass had to be repaired, but it didn't have to be built very sturdy in the first place. ”Zhao Ming and the others stood on the hillside, pointed to the ruins of Nanguan with a horsewhip, and continued: "Nanguan is surrounded by undulating hills on both sides, and there is a plain in the middle. ”Guo Zhong said: "The meaning of the big handsome is still based on the island. ”Zhao Ming bowed slightly, and then shook his head again, "Occupying the island, although it can make us invincible, but it can't defeat the Qing army.In order to defeat the Qing army and regain the lost territory, we must go ashore, otherwise we will be entrenched on the island all year round, and we will really become sea bandits.Besides, Ben Shuai now has more than 7,000 war horses, and he also needs a place to graze horses. ”Everyone couldn't help but bow their heads slightly, and there were no longer any objections.Shandong and Liaodong face each other across the sea, and this time there are many Shandong people who will be transported to Liaodong to land and herd horses.If the Ming army can gain a firm foothold in Denglai and Liaodong, Jiannu will not want to go south with all his strength in the future.Zhao Ming inspected Nanguan for half a day, led the generals and the shogunate to join the army, as well as several red-haired ghosts, drew a topographic map of Nanguanling, and relying on the terrain, planned an earthen wall about ten miles long.Zhao Ming took the drawings and looked at his own plan, and couldn't help but sigh: "Now it can only be built simply, and then it will be strengthened later, this piece will be fenced off, and then a wharf will be built in the south, and a steady stream of soldiers and soldiers will be transported in a steady stream. ”Zhao Ming wore an iron helmet on his head, held drawings in his hand, pointed out the country, started his old business, and looked like a contractor.After inspecting Nanguanling, the group came to the Jinzhou Zhongzuo Guard Station at the southern tip of the peninsula, which was later known as Lushun.The Jinzhou Central Left Guard Station was also destroyed by the Qing army, but many bricks and stones remained.At this time, this place was called Lushun by Zhao Ming, and thousands of people from Shandong were working in full swing on the ruins of the left guard of Jinzhou to build Fort Lushun.The whole fortress was planned and mapped by Zhao Dashuai, and the fortress was built next to the mouth of Lushun, with mountains on both sides, one facing the sea, and the dock was also built on the seaside side.At this time, everyone inspected the construction site, and Xia Wanchun said: "If the marshal has food and continuously transported it into the fortress from the sea, the Qing army is afraid that it will be difficult to conquer this fort!"
”Zhao Ming smiled and said: "There is a shortage of food outside the pass, and the Qing army wants to conquer Liaodong, and the transportation of military grain alone can drag them down." ”The Qing army wanted to clear Liaodong, in fact, it was more difficult than encircling and suppressing Shandong, which could transfer grain and troops from Hebei, Henan, Lianghuai, and Jiangnan, but to encircle and suppress Liaodong, the grain had to be transported to Tongzhou through the Grand Canal first, and then by land out of Shanhaiguan and trek thousands of miles along the western Liaoning corridor, in which the consumption was unimaginable.This will increase the difficulty of the Qing army's encirclement and suppression of Liaodong, so Zhao Ming took a fancy to Lushun, but it was not easy for the Qing army to transport grain, and Zhao Ming's food was not enough, in fact, half a catty and eight taels.
