Azig seized a large territory in Huainan, and his prestige soared, and the power of the remnants of Dolgon rose.Shunzhi was very wary of this, so he wanted to fight a battle to boost the momentum of the imperial party and suppress the limelight of Azig.Sun Kewang negotiated with the Qing army, allowing Shunzhi to see this opportunity.If the Qing army can occupy Sichuan, it will not only be able to change the general trend of the world, but also improve his prestige, make the throne stable, and suppress Azig and others.Entering Sichuan is a major event, when the Jin Dynasty died Wu, the Yuan Dynasty died in the Song Dynasty, they were all the first to take Bashu, occupy the upstream, once the Qing army entered Sichuan, the Ming Dynasty will definitely take action, so the battle of Sichuan, will not be limited to Sichuan, it will definitely be a world war.In order to deal with the Qing army's entry into Sichuan and the containment war launched by the Ming Dynasty, Shunzhi must solve the main hidden dangers before entering Sichuan, and it is very likely that Zhao Zamao will play a card outside the Guan.Therefore, Shunzhi decided to pull out the nails of Zhao Zamao outside the pass before entering Sichuan, so as to avoid the Qing army falling into a two-front battle.Yue Le listened to Aobai's words, and his heart was shocked, "The imperial court is preparing to attack Bashu!"
”Ao Bai said: "Yes, so the barbarians in Liaodong must be solved as soon as possible, so that the imperial court has no worries." ”Yue Le was silent for a moment and nodded, "This king understands. ”But then he asked, "How many soldiers and horses did you bring this time?"
”Ao Bai said: "10,000 people with two blue flags, 10,000 people with two yellow flags." ”Yue Le frowned, "Too little!"
I'm afraid this is not enough!
”Kubilong said: "Lord Wang, there is also Horqin, Chahar 100,000 cavalry. ”Ao Bai said: "It's August now, and the autumn is high and the horses are fat, and it is the time to use the soldiers."
The intention of the imperial court was to take advantage of Zhao Zamao's unpreparedness, concentrate the army, and sweep away the enemy in Liaodong with lightning speed. ”Liaodong has the convenience of shipping, if Zhao Ming learns the news, he will inevitably increase the troops in Liaodong and turn the war into a tug-of-war.This time, the Manchu Qing sent troops, in order to surprise and quickly decide, and all the cavalry was mobilized.Yue Le's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Xie Qian has just occupied Gaizhou, and the forward has advanced to Haizhou and the Sancha River, if there are more than 100,000 cavalry, and they are taken by surprise, they may be able to annihilate Xie Qian's main force in the Gaizhou area." ”Gaizhou, at the mouth of the Qinghe River, ships came and went, sending grain, grass, military supplies, and the new army from Jiangdong ashore.Zhao Ming said that after Wang Jianfan, the pre-righteousness expanded the soldiers and horses of the vassal state to 300,000, and now there are 230,000 soldiers and horses for training, and the remaining vacancies are also being intensively recruited.Now in the south of the Yangtze River, the Qing army and the Ming army are facing each other across the river, and there are more than 100,000 troops of Zhu Yihai in the north of the Yangtze River, and Wu Yuefan is on the front line of the Yangtze River, so there is no need to garrison too many soldiers and horses, so that Zhao Ming still has a lot of soldiers and horses to mobilize.Since Zhao Ming officially called the vassal and Dingwangjing was in Hangzhou, he continued to send troops and horses to Liaodong to transport military funds.This is to temper the new army, and the other is to get horses from Mongolia outside the border.In the first battle of Jiangbei, Zhao Ming's elite was lost, and the thousands of horse troops in his hands were wiped out.Since March, Wu and Yue troops have landed in Liaodong one after another, and it is precisely because of reinforcements from Jiangdong that Xie Qian drove the Qing army out of Liaodong and occupied Gaizhou, opening the door to Shenyang.At this time, on the front line of Gaizhou, 30,000 Wu and Yue troops had been assembled, as well as more than 10,000 Jiangbei mercenaries, and another 30,000 Korean troops were also ordered to cross the Yalu River and advance to the line of Lianshan Pass, threatening the Liaohe Plain from the east.The Qing army had only more than 30,000 men outside the pass, and Wu Yueguo's strength outside the pass had surpassed Yue Le.At the mouth of the river, Xie Qian, dressed in a new military uniform, stood on the shore on horseback, watching the artillery and military supplies carried down from the boat.Xie Qian asked: "The army of this governor is assembled in Gaizhou, has the Qing army in Haizhou made any moves?"
”General Chen Youlong said: "A few days ago, the Qing army in Haizhou also sent scouts to spy on us, but there has been no movement in recent days. ”Xie Qian couldn't help frowning when he heard this, turned his head to look at Chen Youlong, and said suspiciously: "There is no movement, it shouldn't be!"
”Chen Youlong also said: "The governor occupies Gaizhou, if the naval army is used to take Jinzhou and Ningyuan Fort, Yue Le's army will be isolated outside the pass, and the Qing army should indeed take action." ”Xie Qian pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Is there any news about the fine work of Liaozhong?"
”Chen Youlong said: "There is no news from the Military Intelligence Department. ”Xie Qian was a little uneasy in his heart, and said solemnly: "The land of Liaodong is too far away from Jiangdong and too close to Beijing, let the scouts out and find out the news of the Qing army." ”"No!
Humble Command!
”Chen Youlong immediately clenched his fists.South of Shenyang, Liaoyang City.At this time, a large number of Qing troops had been assembled in the city, and the 20,000 Qing troops who came from the Guannei had just arrived in the city, and tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry came from the north, which can be said to be a large army.In the Shanxi military camp, Jiang Youguang, Jiang Xiang's younger brother, looked at the man in front of him, and felt a panic in his heart.As early as a few years ago, Zhao Ming sent a fine work to contact Jiang Xiang, the general soldier of Datong, and persuaded Jiang Xiang to do it anyway at the right time.At that time, it coincided with the death of Duoduo and Dolgon, the Ming army captured Wuchang, forced Kong Youde to death, Zhao Ming and Zhu Yihai launched a large northern expedition to recover Nanjing, and the situation of resisting the Qing Dynasty was very good.After Jiang Xiang surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he was already suspicious of the Qing court and was not reused, so he naturally hit it off with Zhao Ming, but what he didn't expect was that when the anti-Qing situation was very good, Zhao Ming folded Jiangbei, and the Longwu Dynasty suddenly negotiated peace with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the War of Resistance against the Qing Dynasty came to an abrupt end.In this way, Jiang Xiang was put aside, and at this time, after the Ming and Qing dynasties negotiated peace, the Qing court began to rectify the green camp army, Jiang Xiang did not dare to resist at all, so he handed over the command of his soldiers and horses, and more than 30,000 Datong troops were split by the Manchu Qing Dynasty and sent to various places to serve.Jiang Youguang and the 3,000 Datong army were transferred to Guanwai, obeyed Yue Le's dispatch, and concentrated on serving the Manchu Qing Dynasty.Originally, after the Ming and Qing dynasties negotiated peace, the Datong army had already decided to do it anyway, Jiang Xiang and Jiang Youguang did not contact the Ming army again, but after Jiang Youguang was sent to Guanwai, he suffered defeat in the battle, was captured by Wu Yuejun, and then was released, and was targeted by the people of the Military Intelligence Department.In the room, Jiang Youguang's throat was a little dry, and he said carefully to the Military Intelligence Department who was changing into Qing army equipment in front of him: "I have inquired clearly, there are two blue flags and two yellow flags with a total of 20,000 people, in addition to Horqin and Chahar with 50,000 cavalry each.Now that the Horqin cavalry has arrived, as soon as the Chahar cavalry arrives, Yue Le will immediately wave his army south and blitz Liaodong.If you dare to go back and report it quickly, it's too late and it'll be over.If you lose, don't sell me, don't force me, my family is in Beijing, what I can do for you is to provide some news. ”The Military Intelligence Department made Gao Ding carefully, and said with a smile: "Vice General Jiang rest assured, Wu Yuejun will not fail, and even if I am arrested, I will definitely not betray you, because Vice General Jiang still has a role for us." ”Jiang Youguang heard him say this, so he immediately said: "Since this is the case, then you should go quickly!"
In order to block the news, Yue Le's investigation is extremely strict, I can only send you out of the city, and the rest is up to you. ”()
