Chapter 522: Manchu Crisis


Qian Qianyi's words shocked Zhao Ming's heart.The news of Dolgon's death came as a surprise to him.Although in history, Dol rolled and fell to his death, but now the trajectory has long changed, and I didn't expect Dol to roll this ending.This thing seems to be a bit of a coincidence, could it be that there is some inevitability in it.Zhao Ming regarded Dol Roll as one of the main opponents, and now the victory or defeat of the Ming and Qing dynasties has not yet been decided, but his opponent suddenly died, which made Zhao Ming a little uncomfortable.He always felt that Dolroll deserved to die in his hands, and even needed to kill this thief with his own hands in order to relieve the hatred in his heart, but he didn't want Dolroll to be gone.Over the years, Zhao Ming has been accustomed to rolling with Doer, and now the Manchu Qing wants to make a midfield substitution and replace it with an unfamiliar opponent, which makes Zhao Ming a little unaccustomed to it, and he can't figure out the details of the Manchu Dynasty.In history, the cause of Dolroll's death is a little doubtful, it may have died in the internal struggle of the Manchu Dynasty, and now Zhao Ming heard the news, he was also suspicious in his heart, and couldn't help asking: "What's the matter, is Dolroll's death an accident, or is it an internal struggle in the Manchu Dynasty?"

”After the Horqin Mongol cavalry captured Shenyang, Zhao Ming led more than 100,000 allied troops to withdraw from the Liaohe Plain because of the lack of food and grass and the inconvenience of supplies.At this time, the Mongolian cavalry did not dare to attack Korea and Liaodong, and Zhao Ming consumed huge materials and did not have the strength to continue to fight, so after leaving Xie Qian, Yu Guowang and other generals, Zhao Ming led Tang Tong and other generals to cross the sea from Korea and return to Jiangdong.Therefore, Zhao Ming was not clear about Doer's death and did not get any news.Huang Zongxi immediately said: "Prime Minister, I think this is not an accident, but a dumping within Jiannu!"

”Zhao Ming raised his eyebrows and said, "How can you see it?"

”Huang Zongxi said in a deep voice: "Because Jiangxi's Luck Dehun suddenly withdrew his troops to the north!"

”Zhao Ming was a little puzzled, and Qian Qianyi immediately explained: "Luckedhun is the grandson of Daishan, the person of the two red flags, he suddenly withdrew his troops to the north, and soon after, news came from the north, saying that Dole fell off his horse and died.This Luck Dehun obviously got the news in advance, so he withdrew his troops in advance and went north to fight for power, so this must be an internal struggle within the Manchu Qing Dynasty. ”Zhao Ming bowed his head slightly and asked, "Is there anything related to the imperial court's victory in Chu and Jiangxi and the withdrawal of the army from Luckdhun?"

”"Prime Minister wise!"

Huang Zongxi said: "After Luck Dehun went north from Nanchang, he handed over the defense of Jiangxi to Jin Shenghuan, the governor of Jiangxi in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but Jin Shenghuan only resisted a little, and surrendered to the Tang King and Zheng Chenggong under the army in Nanchang City. ”Jin Shenghuan turned out to be Zuo Liangyu's general, surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty with Zuo Mengeng, and then contributed to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and with his own strength, he conquered most of Jiangxi.When Zhao Ming heard that Jin Shenghuan was anyway, he knew that the layout of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Chu and Jiangxi was estimated to have been completely destroyed.Historically, Jin Shenghuan was in Nanchang anyway, causing great trouble to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the Qing army mobilized elites and besieged Jin Shenghuan for more than half a year.Today, the power of the Ming Dynasty is far stronger than in history, Jin Shenghuan suddenly surrendered, and the Manchu defense in Jiangxi completely collapsed.Huang Zongxi continued: "Luck Dehun withdrew, Jin Shenghuan surrendered, the whole territory of Jiangxi was recovered by the imperial court, Jiujiang and Huangzhou were still gratifying, seeing that things were not good, they withdrew to the north of the Yangtze River, while Tang Wang and Zheng Chenggong took Jin Shenghuan as the vanguard, went up the river, went down Jiujiang, took Huangzhou, and joined the imperial army under the city of Wuchang.Now the imperial court has an army of two or three hundred thousand, besieging Wuchang and attacking desperately, Kong Youde is trapped in the city, and it is impossible to break through, and it is a foregone conclusion that the imperial court will recover Chu and Jiangxi.This time, the imperial court was able to quickly open up the situation in Chu and Jiangxi, and it was indeed a chain reaction triggered by Luck's return to the north. ”When Zhao Ming heard him say this, he understood the whole thing.In order to deal with Dol Roll, the Manchu Qing Dynasty secretly mobilized troops to return north to counter Beijing's two white flags, and Luckedhun's withdrawal of troops triggered Jin Shenghuan anyway, which made the Longwu court open up the situation in Chu and Jiangxi.Zhao Ming said: "In Wuchang City, Kong Youde's soldiers are at most 40,000 people.Now besieged by the people of Huguang and Jiangxi, and the only reinforcement is still gratifying, and they fled north across the river, then Wuchang will be taken by the imperial court sooner or later, and the emperor and the imperial court will definitely be prestigious!

”"The Prime Minister is right!

The prince saw that the imperial court would go to Wuchang, and he was worried that after the imperial court recovered Chu and Jiangxi, he would immediately go down to seek Jinling, so he wanted to seize the glory of recovering the southern capital before the imperial court sent troops!

”Qian Qianyi said in a deep voice.Huang Zongxi said: "At the beginning, His Majesty named His Royal Highness King Lu as the crown prince, firstly, because His Majesty was subject to Zheng Zhilong and his position was unstable, and secondly, the overall situation of resisting the Qing Dynasty was difficult, so he made His Royal Highness King Lu the crown prince, so as to unite the Tang and Lu factions and jointly resist the Qing army.Now, His Majesty has gotten rid of Zheng Zhilong, the imperial court has also gained a firm foothold in Huguang, and His Majesty's prestige has grown, and the emperor's eldest son was born, and the court has the voice to abolish the national prince and set up another prince.This made the prince a little uneasy, so he wanted to take advantage of the internal turmoil of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the fact that the imperial court was still besieging Wuchang to recover Nanjing in advance.In this way, the national prince has the merit of recovering the southern capital, and his status will be unshakable. ”Zhao Ming listened to the words of the two and basically understood the current situation.Zhao Ming pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "After our Zhejiang Department recovered Zhejiang, the soldiers and horses have been resting for more than two years.It is indeed a rare opportunity for the prince to recover Nanjing at this time. ”In the past two years, although Zhao Ming has been fighting, the main force of Zhejiang, including the majority of the troops in Donghai Town, is actually recuperating.Now that the Manchu Qing Dynasty is in turmoil, Dole is falling from his horse and dying, the Qing court will inevitably reshuffle the cards, and the energy is contained in the redistribution of power, and there is no time to take care of the south, which is indeed an excellent opportunity for the Ming army to launch a large-scale counteroffensive.Now that the imperial court is besieging Wuchang, if the Zhejiang Department takes this opportunity to recover Nanjing and annihilate the main forces of the Manchu Qing in Chujiang and Jiangnan, then the Manchu Qing will not be far from collapsing.Therefore, although Zhao Ming has just retired from the battlefield outside the Guan, as long as Zhu Yihai wants to take this opportunity to launch the battle to recover Jinling, Zhao Ming will definitely support it.Zhao Ming looked at the two of them and asked, "During the time I was not in Jiangdong, the training of the Shence Army, how about the ordnance reserves of the Domain, can there be a big battle?"

”Qian Qianyi obviously supported the Zhejiang army in launching the battle to recover Jinling, "The prime minister can rest assured that the training of the new army for two years can be useful, and the guns cast by Huaxing Company are enough to launch a big war!"

”Zhao Ming shook his head when he heard this, and said solemnly: "Since this is the case, then Ben Shuai will go to Hangzhou to discuss with the prince, and take advantage of the civil strife in the Manchu Qing Dynasty to take their lives!"

Hmph, Dole is dead, Ben Shuai wants to see how the Manchus resolve the current crisis!
