Forbidden City, inside the South Study Room!

The Empress Dowager Borzigit of the Qing Dynasty, holding the young Kangxi, sat behind the bead curtain.

In the hall, Obai and others were discussing the countermeasures intensely.

"Ming thieves invaded Tianjin and shocked the capital. We, the Qing Dynasty, must not avoid the war, and let the people of the world think what they shouldn't have!"

Ao Bai was very strong, because he absolutely could not accept the weakness of the Qing Dynasty in front of everyone.

If the Ming army reached Tianjin, but the Qing Dynasty avoided fighting, what would people in the world think?
If they didn't dare to fight against each other, would the Eight Banners soldiers that Daqing depended on have the face to claim to be invincible?

Once the tiger skin of the Eight Banners soldiers is invincible, how can the Qing Dynasty rule the world?
To put it bluntly, it is actually not a big problem to let Ming thief stay in Tianjin.

The Ming thief came from the sea, so the logistics must be limited, and there will not be many troops?
With only such a small force, let alone threaten the capital, I am afraid that even Tianjin will not be able to defeat it.

To put it bluntly, there is basically no threat!
However, the trick of the Ming army landing and harassing Tianjin is not very harmful, but extremely insulting!
For Man Qing, it is really disgusting!

Tianjin is the gateway to the capital, and when the Ming Dynasty landed in Tianjin, it was no different from blocking the door of the Qing Dynasty.

Sonny spoke.

"It's time to send troops to Tianjin!"

"No matter what, we must drive the Ming thief back to the sea."

"And try to block the news as much as possible. The end of the year is approaching. In any case, we can't call Ming thieves to invade, which will affect the stability under my Qing Dynasty."

Ye Bilong said.

"How about transferring the Dengzhou navy to defend Tianjin and repel the Ming thief navy?"

Ye Bilong felt that even if the Qing Dynasty drove the Ming thieves into the sea, it was not the same thing that they were blocked by the Ming thieves off the coast of Tianjin.

If the people of the world continue to have full confidence in the Qing Dynasty, it is also very necessary to repel the Ming thief navy and calm the sea.

Feiyangu narrowed his eyes and said.

"This king can go to Tianjin himself to drive away the Ming thieves!"

From Fei Yanggu's point of view, if Ming bandits dared to invade Tianjin boldly, they were courting death.

As long as the Qing Dynasty sends troops to crusade, there will be no reason to be invincible!

In addition, the battlefield is still near the capital, right under the nose.

This is almost a credit for nothing, how could he not want it?
Therefore, Fei Yanggu stood up and claimed the credit!
Aobai and the others frowned, but they still spoke.

"My lord wants to be in command, so naturally it's the best!"

"It's just that the Ming thieves who invaded Tianjin are just scabies, and there is no general in the court who can lead the army. How dare you work for the prince?"

"If even such a trivial matter requires the prince to come forward in person, wouldn't it make people in the world mock me that there is no one in the Qing Dynasty?"

Aobai politely refused.

Feiyangu narrowed his eyes and said.

"Well, what Ao Shaobao said makes sense!"

"In that case, let the younger generation lead the army to drive out the thieves!"

Fei Yanggu's words made the expression on Oboi's face froze when he wanted to lead the army to defeat the bandits by himself and take credit for nothing.

This is what Fei Yanggu said!
If he stood up to challenge again, wouldn't he be taking the initiative to demote himself?
Taking a full view of Ao Bai's expression, the person next to Fei Yanggu said.

"If you want me to say, let Chentai lead the troops to Tianjin to suppress the bandits!"

Chen Tai is the son of Fei Yanggu.

He is also the next owner of the Zhenglan Banner.

Now is the time to need a military resume.

Fei Yanggu's eyes lit up when he heard this, he nodded slightly and said.

"Can!"

Seeing Fei Yanggu's statement in this way, it was difficult for the rest of the people to raise objections.

With one word from one person, the matter was completely settled!
Then there is the matter of discussing the deployment of troops!
Aobai personally made the decision and transferred 3000 men from the capital to the Mongolian horse team.

And [-] elite green battalion soldiers were drawn from all over the North Zhili.

It is used to quell the Ming thieves who invaded Tianjin.

As orders were issued from the capital, officials and soldiers throughout Beizhili were mobilized.

The green battalion soldiers from Miyun, Changping, Baoding, Zhending and other places gathered towards the capital along the official road.

On the official roads extending in all directions, the Qing army's green battalion horse infantry can be seen marching everywhere.

In the capital, the Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry teams of the Qing court were also rapidly gathering.

The female family members of the Eight Banners in the inner city and the outer city, seeing that their sons and daughters were about to be transferred to the battlefield, all of them cried and showed extreme reluctance.

In recent years, the Qing Dynasty suffered several major defeats in a row, and even lost the entire Southern Kingdom.

In the process, the Eight Banners Army in the south was almost wiped out!
The circle of the Eight Banners is just that big, and everyone is related to each other. Who can have no relatives who died on the battlefield?

Some time ago, the Southern Expedition Army had just set off, and the imperial court conscripted their sons and husbands away. Until now, there has been no specific news of the battle.

Now that the imperial court is going to gather troops to go out again and take away their remaining sons and husbands, how can they be willing?

However, whether these Eight Banners women and children are willing or not, they cannot change the imperial court's decree.

Orders were issued one after another, even if the Eight Banners men in the city didn't want to, they could only put on their armor and lead their horses to the school grounds to gather.

Ready to go out with the army!

……

After the Ming army landed at Dagukou, it failed to try to attack Tianjin!
There was no further attack on Tianjin, but the troops withdrew and retreated to the tidal flats.

At the beginning, fortifications were built around the fort of the Qing court at Dagukou.

We are going to deal with the counterattack of the Qing court at Dagukou, relying on the support of the fleet's naval guns.

The longer they can persist in Dagukou as a surprise soldier, the more Qing court soldiers and horses they attract, and the more they can relieve the pressure on the war in the south.

Add a piece of weight to the decisive battle in the south of the Yangtze River, and let the balance of victory tilt more towards Daming!

This is the ultimate goal of the Ming Dynasty's launch of the Bohai Rim Operation!

The Ming army unloaded bags of cement, as well as the masonry and wood materials prepared in advance, and the engineers who specialized in construction began to get busy inside and out.

A series of ditches gradually took shape, and between the ditches, there are dense parapets, horse pits, traps, and various defensive facilities.

The bunkers built with cement bricks one by one, the crossfire that the fort can form can cover the entire offensive surface of the fort.

Battleships lined up outside the Dagu mouth, their dark heavy artillery muzzles aimed at the direction of the beach.

A simple fortress was built from scratch in a very short period of time.

A series of small-caliber light artillery was unloaded from the ship and placed on the gun positions in the fortress.

The reason why only small-caliber light artillery is transported is because the heavy artillery fire support can be served by naval guns.

Furthermore, if there are only small-caliber light artillery in the fortress, it will be more convenient when it is time to evacuate.

After all, it would be terrible to transport heavy artillery!
Things that cost tens of thousands of catties are not easy to move.

Xu Shan was lying on a sunken place on a beach, looking at the direction of Tianjin City with piercing eyes.

Carefully observe the low city wall, staring at the movement of the Qing army in the city, lest the Qing army in the city counterattack Dagukou when the Ming army is not stable.

A gust of cold wind blows from the sea surface, and the wet and cold feeling seems to be immersed in the bones of people.

Xu Shan wrapped his military uniform tightly and shuddered.

He is a southerner, and the most unbearable thing is the severe cold in the northern winter.

As time passed, he finally made it to the time to change shifts.

Xu Shan felt the sound of footsteps coming from behind him, turned his head to look, and saw Tang Aren striding towards him.

"Company commander, why are you here in person?"

Xu Shan got up from the ground, saluted Tang Aren with a military salute, and then asked.
