Chapter 673 The Fiasco of the Tianxiong Army Qi Yuanbi hadn't had time to send the news of the Guanning Army's rebellion to Quan Xu, Quan Xu actually received the news of Xuan Yingwei first.Just when Quan Xu took Chongzhen to Liaodong and inspected Liaodong, let Chongzhen see the industrial achievements of Liaodong with his own eyes, and see the development model of Liaodong, if Chongzhen is willing to learn, Daming can catch the last train from the feudal era to the capitalist era.In fact, at this time, it is not too late for Daming to reform internally, although Europe has achieved certain advantages in the field of science and technology, but with Quanxu's hanging here, no matter how big Europe's advantage is, it will also be eliminated, and Daming has many opportunities to surpass them.Taking advantage of the time when Daming Chongzhen left the capital, the situation in the DPRK and China can only be described as "chaotic".And it is chaotic out of a new realm, although the political situation in the Ming Dynasty has been very chaotic since Jiajing, but it is really like this now, it has never been before!
The industrial revolution shook this ancient land, and the working class and the merchant class rose and grew rapidly, and the storm hit the scholars to monopolize all power.Of course, the scholars could not tolerate this situation, and quickly launched a counterattack to cut off all pro-New Army forces in the DPRK and China, such as the daimyo prefect Fang Nanjuyi, the governor of Shandong, Zhu Dadian, and the prefect of Nanyang, Chen Zhenhao......
In particular, Sun Chengzong and Yuan Keli's protégés and former officials were taken down one after another, with such speed and intensity that it was terrifying.In this way, they proved to the world that the power of the world is still in their hands, and they still have the final say in the world!
Speaking from his heart, Zhu Dadian is not an industrialist, although he is also corrupt, in the past few years, the property that the industrial party has bribed Zhu Dadian with is worth more than 600,000 taels, and in Dengzhou Shipyard, Dengzhou Textile Factory, and dozens of other enterprises, he has a certain proportion of cadre shares and shares, and if the bribes and share income are added, the wealth in Zhu Dadian's hands also exceeds four or five million taels of silver.However, because of the relationship between Zhu Dadian and Qin Chengzu, Shandong was greatly influenced by Liaodong, and Quan Xu's orders were relatively easy to use, but the problem was that with Zhu Dadian being promoted to the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, all this changed.not only moved Zhu Dadian, but also moved Qin Chengzu, although Qin Chengzu did not show his loyalty to Quanxu, but the Liaodong Industrial Party infiltrated Shandong very seriously, and Qin Chengzu and the Shandong Army were also dealt with.Shandong General Qin Chengzu was promoted to the governor of the left, which is a very typical Ming Sheng and secretly descended, although the official residence is a military attaché, but the actual power is almost nothing.It's a pity to take down Zhu Dadian, but it doesn't matter, his ability is really not good, taking him down and replacing him with a more energetic and talented one is not a good thing for the imperial court, but the problem is that the Shandong army was moved and replaced with a sounding board Liu Zeqing.When Quan Xu learned the news, Qin Chengzu was asking him for advice.Quan Xu picked up Qin Chengzu's secret letter and threw it directly to Qin Zhengyang: "The affairs of your Shandong Army, Benhou will not interfere, you can watch and do it!"
”jokes, he didn't believe that Qin Chengzu would give up the power in his hands, Qin Chengzu turned out to be just a general of the Dongjiang Army, and he was still not as good as a general in the stream.Otherwise, Mao Chenglu would not have let him carry out that action that would undoubtedly die.It can be said that Qin Chengzu's luck is really good, the Wuqiao Rebellion in the second year of Chongzhen happened to encounter the White Lotus Sect uprising, and as a result, the situation of death was brought to life in an instant.Qin Zhengyang took Quan Xu's order and returned directly to Shandong.In fact, this was a test of Qin Chengzu by Quan Xu.Qin Chengzu did not disappoint Quan Xu, for his own interests, for his own power, it was a simple matter to rebel, and a rebellion broke out in Caogong, Shandong.Qin Chengzu sent troops to suppress it, and suffered defeat, and the original hundreds of rebellious Cao laborers instantly expanded to tens of thousands of horses, and once the Cao Yun was in the middle.Then Quan Xu received an urgent report from Qi Yuanbi.Quan Xu stared at Cao Huachun's face, his face became very ugly, and he threw a thick piece of information on Cao Huachun's face: "You fucking look at it yourself!"
”Located in the northern Kruren steppe, something big happened.Huang Taiji, who had fled more than 3,000 miles from Ningguta, stopped in the Krulun steppe, which means "land of light" in Mongolian, located in the northern part of what is now the Kent Mountains in Mongolia.The Huang Taiji Division, which was originally chased by the whole family army, suddenly resurrected with full blood, and obtained a large amount of equipment, gunpowder, and food.And the cavalry unit of the whole family army in charge of the pursuit is actually a cavalry in the era of cold weapons, because the consumption of supplies by such a cavalry unit is too small."160,000 stone of grain, 220,000 forage, 800,000 catties of steel, 120,000 catties of gunpowder, who sent these materials to Mobei?"
Quan Xu pointed to the granular black powder on it and said: "This kind of black powder, I only gave it to the gunpowder bureau in the capital, this kind of gunpowder is now appearing in Krulun, how do you explain it?"
”"We can't explain it......"
Cao Huachun had no way to explain.If you check, you can definitely find out, no need to ask, no need to check, he knows that as long as you check it, it will be a chicken feather.After a short time, Li Yanqing came to Quan Xu's side and handed the telegram to Quan Xu: "Master Hou!
”Quan Xu glanced at the news on Qi Yuanbi's paper, and the Guan Ning army had defected.Quan Xu was a little puzzled: "Guan Ningjun appeared in Krulun, why did Guan Ningning's army appear there?"
”If the displaced people rebel, it is excusable, because the Ming Dynasty is sorry for them, the displaced people can't survive, and rebellion is the most helpless choice.Even Kong Youde rebelled in the Wuqiao Mutiny, which is understandable, this is forced out by civilian officials, the army does not give grain and grass, and there is money to buy grain and grass, even if the soldier steals a chicken, Kong Youde is also a rebellion and calms down, inserting arrows into the camp, this is the second only punishment after beheading, the corresponding local punishment, this is indefinite.Only this Guanning army has no reason to rebel, the annual military salary of four or five million taels of silver, two-thirds of the income of the Ming court, no, now nearly half of the Guanning army is there, the Ming Dynasty is worthy of them!
Even if it was a rebellion, they would not get anything.Quan Xu was puzzled.Just when Quan Xu was thinking, a fierce battle broke out in the camp of the whole family army located in Buerhan Mountain, in the wind and snow, like a volcanic eruption, a large cloud of gunpowder smoke burst out, the ground shook fiercely, and rows of lead balls roared through the air and smashed into the middle of the whole family army.Although this is only a solid backward shell, the problem is that the whole army is not equipped with artillery now, and on the ice, the power of solid shells is amplified.Wherever the shells went, the broken flesh and arms were thrown around, the flesh and blood flew sideways, and wherever it hit, there was a bloody alley, and the screams of the soldiers of the whole family suddenly shook the heavens and the earth!
Before they could react, there was another salvo, this time more people fell, and a cannonball even broke through the air, knocking the head of a soldier next to Qi Yuanbi into powder, and the blood and brain sprayed Qi Yuanbi's face.Then at this time, a rebellion broke out in the new barracks of the Tianxiong Army, which was given high hopes by Lu Xiangsheng, and the new barracks of the Tianxiong Army blew up the ice wall with explosives, exposing the Tianxiong Army to the iron hooves of the Jiannu cavalry.Qi Yuanbi was not nervous when he encountered the artillery bombardment of Jiannu, don't look at the shells as if the artillery fire was fierce, but the problem was that the soldiers of the whole family army did not seem to be concentrated in a dense array and became the target of the artillery, and they were bombarded by the Jiannu artillery casually.Even if it is a field fortification, an anti-artillery hole has been built, and even if there is no anti-shell construction, it is very easy to build at this time, and the igloo built with wooden stakes is poured with a few more layers of water, and the ice is hard to resist the shells.As long as you attack at close range, the whole family army can fight back at will.But the problem is that as an ally of the whole family army, instead of fighting Jiannu, he killed his own people!
Lu Xiangsheng's face turned pale, he bit his lip tightly, and said nothing.No one counts.The military system of the Tianxiong Army is actually the same as that of the whole family army, the characteristics of the Tianxiong Army are to take the clan as a link, recruit soldiers and horses anywhere, and take the local as an organization, for example, the Tianxiong Army has many private numbers, such as the Quyang battalion, which means that these soldiers are from Quyang.Just like the soldiers recruited by Datong, the Datong battalion, like the three new battalions now, are actually mainly registered in Shanxi and Xuanfu, and most of them are of the same clan and clan with the same surname, and the generals are also the clan elders or patriarchs in their clans.Such an army is actually a private soldier in the feudal era, although Lu Xiangsheng has the ability to control the whole army, but the problem is that the elders of those clans can also bypass Lu Xiangsheng and order their own clansmen.When there is a pound of sand in a hundred catties of rice, the rice only contains sand, but when a catty of rice falls into a hundred catties of sand, it becomes sand, and there is no rice in sight.In the civil strife of the Tianxiong Army, the three new battalions, in fact, two rebellions, directly participated in the rebellion as many as eight or nine thousand people, and in a very short period of half an hour, the troops loyal to Lu Xiangsheng were killed.The soldiers of the whole family army looked at the chaotic soldiers of the Tianxiong Army in amazement, especially the many recruits of the Tianxiong Army, they did not react at all, and they did not react until the saber swung over.The cold light flashed, and the heads flew into the air with extreme horror, bringing a rain of blood, and their eyes widened to death, full of astonishment and incomprehension.Caught off guard, the Tianxiong army could not organize effective resistance, and was easily killed by Jiannu and the internal rebels layer by layer, Dolgon rushed to the front first, the saber was like a windmill, and more than ten people were chopped over one after another, in front of Lu Xiangsheng, Lu Xiangsheng spent a lot of effort to recognize that this was Dolgon.As Dolgon attacked, he shouted, "Kill Lu Xiangsheng, kill Lu Xiangsheng first!"
”Don't look at Lu Xiangsheng's danger to Jiannu, it is far less than Quan Xu, but for Wenchen, Lu Xiangsheng's threat is greater than Quan Xu, because Lu Xiangsheng was born as a Jinshi, and he can enter the cabinet openly and become the first assistant of the cabinet.But Quan Xu has no such possibility, even if he occupies Liaodong, it is a big deal to become the second Li Chengliang and fend for himself in Liaodong.Qi Yuanbi looked at the chaotic battle in the direction of the Tianxiong Army, and his face was depressed.I'm afraid that the so-called rebellion of the Guanning Army before was also wrong information, it should be that he wanted to kill people with a knife and let the whole family army take the initiative to attack the Guanning Army?
Qi Yuanbi's guess actually has a certain amount of truth, the Ming court treats Guan Ningjun as a treasure, but the problem is that Quan Xu has never taken a fancy to Guan Ningjun, as long as Guan Ningjun dares to make a move on the whole family's army.Then outside the Haishan Pass, it will become the territory of the whole family army.Quan Xu has always tolerated the existence of the Guanning Army, that is because the Liaodong General Staff as a sand table deduction, if the Ming Dynasty really loses Liaodong and only guards the Shanhaiguan, according to the existing financial expenditure, it is possible to effectively alleviate the financial crisis, and it is possible to complete internal healing.The situation of the Tianxiong army was instantly passive, and it took a sharp turn, the people and soldiers who were responsible for transporting the cannons had long been tired like dogs, and in the face of the surging Jiannu iron horsemen, they could only let out a desperate scream, being harvested like mowing grass, the screams and cries shook the heavens and the earth, and the blood flowed like rivers on the snowfield.The defeat was like a mountain.Of course, Lu Xiangsheng is still Lu Xiangsheng, the passive situation in front of him, no matter how other generals are, this battle will definitely end up with the annihilation of the whole army.The rout of the Tianxiong army was mixed with the pursuers, one camp after another was conquered and destroyed, and tens of thousands of Jiannu iron cavalry simply ignored the heavy casualties caused to them by the long-range firepower of the Tianxiong army, and crashed straight over, this kind of desperate fighting style is really terrifying.On the snowfield, the cavalry is almost invincible, especially the heavy cavalry that charges directly, if they are willing to bear heavy casualties and charge straight into the phalanx, no phalanx can resist!
Not to mention cold weapons, wars in the era of hot weapons are also unable to deal with saturated attacks.Since the Tianxiong army was transferred to the three sides, it often fought with the Mongolian cavalry, and accumulated rich experience in cavalry, after the initial panic, although the Tianxiong army Lu Xiangsheng's men and horses lost nearly two-thirds, but the remaining elite also broke out the elite combat effectiveness.These days, the soldiers of the Xiong Army pierced the iron nails at the end of the spears into the ice, and the spears of four meters and eight meters were pointed obliquely at the whistling war horses, as dense as reeds.In this case, there are no tricks, no skills, only hard work.Finally, the rout of the Tianxiong army gradually stabilized.When Quan Xu received the battle report, it was already dark, although these people did not trap the whole family army this time, but they trapped Lu Xiangsheng, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army was ready to cooperate with the whole family army to fight against Huang Taiji, but unfortunately, the attack and defense were instantly transposed, and Lu Xiangsheng suffered the first defeat in his life.Even the general under his command, Lei Shisheng, lost an eye, although he did not accept the detailed losses of the Tianxiong Army, Lei Shisheng was hit by several arrows, which shows how tragic the battle situation is.
