The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 700 Street fighting hits people's hearts (recommendation ticket requested)

The movement of a large number of Jinyiwei passing through the border cannot be covered up casually!
There are soldiers and horses passing through the border, but they can't hide it from these local snakes.

These local snakes were frightened by Zhu Hongyu's ruthlessness!
Now that the imperial army is passing through the border, they are naturally showing how respectful and how submissive they are during the mighty Northern Expedition.

After all, if Zhu Hongyu saw them unhappy and led his army to slaughter a city while crossing the border, they would have nowhere to complain.

Now the emperor of Daming is no worse than his ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang in killing people.

At most, Zhu Yuanzhang killed some civil servants who violated the law and discipline, but in the end he didn't dare to do anything to the Kong family!
But this one has done something to the Kong family!
Although it was not a move on the surface, Kong Jiaming was severely punished.

But it's even scarier to do it secretly!
Who would not be afraid that the descendants of saints who have been passed down for thousands of years have disappeared in such an inexplicable manner?
……

At the end of March in the first year of Guangfu, the Ming army sent troops from Nanjing to start the Northern Expedition!
On the third day of April in the first year of Guangfu, the army of the Northern Expedition arrived in Huai'an.

On April [-], the vanguard of the army crossed the Huai River!

On April [-], the army entered Shandong!

On April 24, the army of the Northern Expedition passed through Yanzhou!
On the first day of May, the army of the Northern Expedition crossed the Daqing River!
On the ninth day of May, the army of the Northern Expedition passed through Dezhou and officially entered Beizhili!

One and a half months after the start of the Northern Expedition, the Ming army finally ended its simple march and was blocked by the Qing army.

A cavalry of the Qing army launched a tentative attack towards the people advancing along the canal. After being discovered by the cavalry of the Ming army, it was introduced into a trap and wiped out.

No one escaped!

Zhu Hongyu was riding on horseback, looking at the endless rivers and mountains in front of him, and listening to the loud and clear battle songs of the Red Scarf Army.

"The cloud follows the dragon, the wind follows the tiger, fame and fortune, dust and soil!"

"Looking at Shenzhou, the people are suffering, and thousands of miles of fertile land are barren!"

"Look at the world, make all the hustlers, and make up for the incompleteness of heaven!"

"Good boy, don't leave your parents, just for the common people and not for the Lord..."

At that time, the army of the Ming Dynasty launched the Northern Expedition singing the battle song of the Red Turban Army, driving the mighty Mongols out of the Central Plains, and chasing death to the north.

Today, the army of the Ming Dynasty once again sang the battle song of the Red Scarf Army and embarked on the road of the Northern Expedition!

Only, this time their enemies became Manchurians!
But it doesn't matter, the result will not change in any way!

In the warm spring breeze, Zhu Hongyu walked with his horse. Beside him was the formation of the Ming army that remained intact even while marching.

With the warm spring breeze blowing on his face, he narrowed his eyes comfortably.

"Report!"

A sentinel galloped over, ran to Zhu Hongyu and knelt down on one knee and said.

"Report to Your Majesty, our vanguard encountered Jiannu cavalry and beheaded [-] soldiers, and now we have wiped out all future Jiannu cavalry!"

Zhu Hongyu nodded slightly and spoke in approval.

"You did a good job, pass on the order and credit it!"

At this moment, another sentinel galloped over and shouted a report from a long distance away.

"Report!"

"Report to Your Majesty, the defenders in Baoding City have sent a surrender form to our army!"

The sentry galloped to Zhu Hongyu, picked up a letter in his hand, and presented it to Zhu Hongyu.

Zhu Hongyu took the letter casually, unfolded it and read it.

The opening chapter is an extremely nasty flattery.

"Sinful General Zhao Liangdong bowed his head a hundred times, curbing his worship to the Holy Son of Heaven who obeyed the destiny, auspiciously loved, respected by all people, and lived forever!"

Zhao Liangdong and Zhu Hongyu had some impressions of this person, as if they remembered that he was one of the so-called Hexi Four Han generals.

In history, when the Qing Dynasty was overthrowing the San Francisco, he made great efforts!
Zhu Hongyu really didn't expect that such a famous general in history could be so nasty when he flattered him.

The corner of his mouth twitched, feeling a little speechless, but he continued to read.

After the Battle of Guanzhong, the Qing Dynasty shrank its defense line and shrank its own defense line to the front line of North Zhili and Shanxi.

Among them, the Manchu Qing's operations in Beizhili are mainly in Beijing, Tianjin, and Baoding!

And these three points are also the main goals of Ming Dynasty's Northern Expedition!
Destroy all the Qing troops stationed at these three points, and the Ming army's Northern Expedition will be considered a success.

And Zhao Liangdong is the guard of Baoding appointed by Obai!
However, even if Oboi was killed, Zhao Liangdong sent Zhu Hongyu a surrender list before the Ming army arrived in Baoding.

In the surrender form, apart from flattering Zhu Hongyu, Zhao Liangdong said that he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty because he was coerced by that old thief Hong Chengchou, and he did not do it voluntarily.

He, Zhao Liangdong, was still loyal to the Ming Dynasty. He had served the Manchu Qing all these years, but he had no choice but to be in Cao Ying and his heart was in Han.

Now that the Great Ming Dynasty launched the Northern Expedition to recover the lost land, he, Zhao Liangdong, felt remorseful and was willing to go forward for the king. He only asked His Majesty to spare his life and give him a chance to redeem his crimes.

Look no further!

Zhao Liangdong's posture is very low!
Of course, this is not how loyal Zhao Liangdong is to Daming.

It is Zhao Liangdong who has self-knowledge, knowing that facing the mighty Northern Expeditionary Ming army going north, Baoding City cannot be defended even if killed.

Even if he followed Obai's method and fought Daming in the street, it would only be a matter of time before Baoding fell.

When that time really came, it would be too late for Zhao Liangdong to surrender!
In order to survive, he could only lower his posture and pray to Daming.

Obai's idea was correct. Digging trenches, digging tunnels, and fighting in the streets, to a certain extent, could indeed delay the Ming army's offensive.

However, he forgot to include the influence of people's hearts!

The Manchu Qing troops in the pass were not many, and most of them were the Green Battalion Han Army, and at most there were some Eight Banners in the army who were in charge of supervising the battle.

There are not many people, and there are at most hundreds of Eight Banners in Baoding City!
Forget about the Eight Banners, the Qing Dynasty is the Qing Dynasty of the Eight Banners, and it is only natural for them to work hard for the Qing Dynasty.

But why did the green battalion Han army go to fight the Ming army for the Qing Dynasty?
Why, there are some upright people who don't do it, so they have to work hard to be slaves?

At a glance, street fighting is indeed a good choice for the Qing army!

But is this really the case?
Street fighting is more about hitting people's hearts!
And Man Qing can have a fart's heart!
Manchu and Manqing, no matter how much they are cleaned up, the label of alien rule will never be removed from them.

Let such a green battalion Han army go to fight in the street, thanks to Oboi can figure it out!

Unless all the guarding troops are Eight Banners, in this case, maybe they can still fight a dozen.

Under such circumstances, it was actually quite normal for Zhao Liangdong to choose to surrender in the face of the mighty Ming army marching northward.

After Zhu Hongyu pondered for a while, he spoke.

"It's a good thing that Zhao Liangdong wants to surrender to me, Daming!"

"Order the army to continue marching in the direction of Baoding and prepare to take over Baoding's city defense."

"What's more, send someone to reply and ask Zhao Liangdong to meet with the army!"
