Taking a deep breath, Zhu Hongyu ordered.

"Order all ministries, all officers and men on duty to speed up the speed and frequency of shift changes..."

Zhu Hongyu felt sorry for the soldiers below, but he asked him to tell the Liberation Army not to continue to be on duty in the heavy snow.

That is impossible!

Watching stuff is no joke.

In case of a surprise attack by the Qing army, these soldiers on duty will be the army's firewall and alarm.

There must be no sloppy!
However, although it is impossible not to be on duty, he can use the method of speeding up the rotation frequency to make the soldiers on duty suffer less.

……

Qing army camp!

Tu Hai listened to the report from the people below, about the number of those who died of freezing last night, and the expression on his old face kept changing.

Just last night, more than 30 people in the Qing army were frozen to death.

Nearly 200 people were frostbitten. The frostbite mentioned here is the kind of frostbite that requires amputation.

Like frostbite and the like, there is no statistics.

Hearing this shocking number, Tu Hai's expression was very ugly.

Most of the soldiers of the Qing army were from the north. Compared with the Ming army, they were indeed more frost-resistant.

However, these soldiers of the Qing army could withstand the dry and cold in the north, but they might not be able to withstand the wet and cold in the south.

As we all know, due to the relatively humid climate in the south.

Cold is not physical damage, he is magic damage with armor.

"My lord, the temperature is still dropping. I'm afraid there will be more people who will freeze to death tonight!"

Li Guoying was wrapped in a thick plush cloak, and said in a low voice.

Even if he was wrapped like this, he could still feel the biting cold, not to mention those green battalion soldiers of the Qing army who only had uniforms.

Since it snowed yesterday, many soldiers of the Qing army huddled together on a bunk to keep warm in order not to be frozen to death.

But even so, dozens of people were frozen to death last night!
Tu Hai asked.

"Is there no firewood in the army?"

Li Guoying nodded and said.

"Your Excellency, it's long gone!"

"Hundreds of thousands of troops, no matter how much firewood we prepare in advance, it will be a drop in the bucket when it is really needed!"

Tu Hai pondered for a while, and ordered a plate of Tai Ying A Dao.

"You send a team of Eight Banners soldiers out of the camp to cut wood and get firewood!"

Taeyong clasped her fists in response.

It is reasonable to say that it is not the turn of the Eight Banners soldiers to do things like chopping firewood.

Unfortunately, the weather is too cold!

The green battalion and civilian husbands in thin clothes couldn't get out of the camp at all, and they would freeze to death if they went out.

This kind of thing can only be done by the Eight Banners soldiers.

Well, I'm not sure how effective the cotton armor on the soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty is.

But in terms of heat preservation effect, there is definitely nothing to say.

Leaving aside the iron sheet in the interlayer, it is not a problem at all to say that the padded jacket of the Eight Banners is a large padded jacket.

After talking about these things, Tuhai discussed with the generals of the Qing army about withdrawing troops.

Tu Hai gave a wry smile, and then spoke.

"Although I don't want to admit it, but this decisive battle in the south of the Yangtze River, my Qing Dynasty has indeed lost!"

"This is a fact, there is no need to deny it!"

...

The decisive battle in the south of the Yangtze River, so far, is still at the stage of seesaw.

The Qing army has not yet been beaten into a big collapse!
However, in this battle, the Qing army was pressed and beaten throughout the whole process, and was continuously bled.

Although the current Qing army is still huge in size, those who can fight and dare to fight are basically almost dead.

The rest, although they can still be called elite soldiers!
But it was an elite soldier who was beaten down by the Ming army!
Tu Hai knew that the decisive battle in the south of the Yangtze River could not go on.

If he stops at this time, there is still a certain possibility that the main force of the army will retreat across the Yangtze River to preserve the vitality of the Qing Dynasty.

However, if Tu Hai insists on insisting on the decisive victory with the Ming army in Jiangnan...

There is a high probability that the more than [-] troops that gathered half of the main force of the Qing court were wiped out by the Ming army in the south of the Yangtze River.

As for anti-killing the Ming army...

Tuhai didn't dare to think about it!
The only thing Tuhai wants to do now is to cut the meat and stop the loss.

He must not throw all the main force of the Qing army in his hand on Jiangnan.

"Let's discuss it with everyone. If the governor wants to withdraw his troops, what should he do to preserve the vitality of the army as much as possible and calmly withdraw from the south of the Yangtze River?"

There was deep exhaustion in Tuhai's voice.

After hearing the words, the generals of the Qing army began to discuss and express their different opinions.

Tae Young-ah said.

"My lord, why is this!"

"Although my army was temporarily frustrated, the main force still exists. If we continue to fight, we may not necessarily be defeated by Ming thieves. Why do we have to retreat?!"

"Isn't this admitting defeat to Ming Thief?"

"Even if my Qing Dynasty is at a disadvantage now, it's only for a while."

As a Manchurian general loyal to the Qing court, Tai Ying'a was unwilling to admit that the Southern Expedition organized by the imperial court had failed.

I don't want to admit that the Qing Dynasty was actually defeated by the Ming thief in the decisive battle!

Wu Tuo also spoke.

"That's right, my lord. Now, as the defensive side, the Qing Dynasty is exhausted from fighting for a long time, let alone the bright thieves who are on the offensive side?"

"At this time, the morale of the Ming thief must be low!"

The corner of Tu Hai's mouth twitched, but he was too lazy to refute Wu Tuo.

The current Qing army, can that be called defense?

It's obviously a unilateral beating, okay?

Thousands of casualties a day, over time, who the hell can bear it? !
Instead, Li Guoying gave a pertinent suggestion.

"Your Excellency, my opinion is that some of our army can stay behind to stop the attack, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will take advantage of this opportunity to quickly go north along the canal and leave the battlefield."

"There are also those civilian husbands in the army!"

"As long as our army keeps those civilian husbands and disperses them all over the south of the Yangtze River."

"It must be enough for the Ming thief to have a headache for a while. By then, the Ming thief will naturally be powerless to chase me, Daqing!"

Tuhai nodded approvingly.

……

At this moment, the decisive battle between the Ming army and the Qing army in the south of the Yangtze River intensified and reached a fever pitch.

Huguang is also not calm.

Wu Sangui personally led his troops to the north, and went straight to Wuchang Mansion, Huangzhou Mansion and other places.

Prepare to win a bridgehead for the future down the river!

In the face of Wu Sangui, the surname of the Qing Dynasty under the banner of the Qing emperor, the Qing army in Wuchang Mansion, Huangzhou Mansion and other places resisted fiercely.

Although the local Qing army was incapable of confronting Wu Sangui's Guanning army in a field battle, there was no problem in defending the city.

fantuantanshu.
Wu Sangui spent more than a month trapped under the city of Wuchang Prefecture before he gnawed down Wuchang City with great difficulty.

In order to vent his anger and deter him, Wu Sangui gave the order to "slaughter the city" after breaking through Wuchang.

Of course, the population under Wu Sangui's current rule is scarce, so he will definitely not kill indiscriminately at this time.

The only ones who were really killed were the Qing soldiers who surrendered.

Almost all the defenders of the Qing army in this battle were killed by Wu Sangui in one breath after they surrendered.

Most of the people in Wuchang City were beaten into slaves and forced to move to Sichuan and Shu for reclamation.

Huangzhou Mansion, not far from Wuchang, was frightened by Wu Sangui's actions, and after receiving Wu Sangui's persuading letter, he chose to surrender very wisely.

After Huangzhou Mansion also fell into the hands of Wu Sangui, Wu Sangui still successfully won one of the most important cities in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River.

After taking Huangzhou, Wu Sangui did not listen to the persuasion of his subordinates, and continued to go eastward along the river to capture Jiujiang, Anqing and other important places.

Instead, they started to deploy defenses around Wuchang Mansion and Huangzhou Mansion!
Just highlight a soundness!
