Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 155 Fighting Central Plains, Fighting India.

"The teaching bandits have been tossing in Guanzhong for almost a year, and they are not satisfied with only one Guanzhong."

Fukang'an was riding on a horse and was inspecting the barracks with a group of Green Banner officers.

More than 7 green flag soldiers organized by local gentry from Shandong and Anhui flocked to Shanzhou at once.

Qianlong also ordered the Henan province to support the food and grass of the 7 people, and to conscript [-] husbands to serve as coolies with the army.

This Henan has now become the front line of the confrontation between the Qing court and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Here is the poor military discipline of the Qing army, or the occasional military looting that Fukang'an and other high-level Qing army deliberately indulged.

Here is the army of the kingdom of heaven that may break out at any time, sweep everything and roll northward to Beijing.

It seems that the suffering of the people in Henan will not stop for a while.

At this time, hundreds of thousands of people are building fortifications in full swing.

If the army of the kingdom of heaven comes out from the customs clearance, this is the place they must pass through.

Relying on fortifications, the army of the kingdom of heaven can be blocked.

in contrast.

If you want to break into Guanzhong.

There must also be a safe place to store food.

This fortification must be repaired firmly.

"It's a pity that I was busy fighting against Niming last year, which made this religious bandit a thing!" Fukang'an said with a sigh.

"Now that the bandits have divided their territory in Guanzhong, they have gained a firm foothold in Guanzhong, making it even more difficult to deal with!" Zhang Ruo'an said, frowning.

"There's nothing hard to deal with, it's better than them running around the world!"

Fukang'an waved his hand and said.

After fighting the Ming army for two years, now they are suddenly facing a group of "normal" opponents.

Even those heavenly soldiers who have been divided into lands are very difficult to deal with and have a strong will to fight, and the equipment these rich soldiers buy themselves is usually very sophisticated.

Whether it is a flintlock gun or a variety of cold weapons, the materials used are quite solid.

But that's it.

No matter how solid the equipment is.

Do they have the firepower of the Ming army?
No matter how sophisticated the armor is.

If you lift the gun, it will be pierced.

Although the equipment of the green flag soldiers under Fukang'an is not very good.

But compared with the soldiers of the Heavenly Kingdom, there is no essential difference.

This kind of war seems to be in line with all of Fukang'an's previous war experience
"The Green Banner Soldiers have to rectify it again and tell everyone that after entering Guanzhong, you can let go of the grab and let go of the fishing!"

Fukang'an said.

These green flag soldiers are essentially regimental training organized by the village and blood ties.

It is similar to the Hunan Army and Huai Army in later generations.

Compared with the green battalion.

This kind of army with folks as the bond, and even father and son brothers serving together has very obvious advantages.

For example, in the battle of the green battalion soldiers, they often "rescue each other when they lose, and envy them when they win. Although the whole army is wiped out, no one comes out to help."

However, the Hunan Army of later generations was often able to rescue each other before the battle.

With a little training, it is indeed stronger than the green battalion soldiers.

But again, the motivation for this kind of army combat comes from the spoils of war.

These local regiments from Anhui and Shandong, under the leadership of some landlords and gentry, are basically looking for money-because even if they die in battle, there are reliable people who will help bring the money back to the hometown.

Later generations of Hunan produced so many talents in modern times.

In fact, it has nothing to do with the fact that the Hunan Army fought abroad, and many people made a fortune. Those poor children in Hunan who had no chance of receiving education had the opportunity to study and make progress because their elders made a fortune in fighting (robbing) outside. Army officers returned to their hometowns to run schools.

After contacting these green banner soldiers.

Fukang'an knew how to inspire the fighting spirit of these provincial soldiers.

As long as there is a chance to make a fortune, these green flag soldiers are useful.

Therefore, he made a promise to "go to the affluent Guanzhong to make a lot of money".

Anyway, on the one hand, Guanzhong is already the territory of the religious bandits, and the land has been divided. To rob Guanzhong is to rob the religious bandits.

on the other hand
Fukangan himself must know that Guanzhong is a poor place now.

Didn't those poor and crazy green battalion soldiers in the Ganshan Green Camp come from this place?

But I don't know if I can't stand those old hats in Anhui and Shandong.

After all, the bandit insisted on taking Guanzhong as his home instead of Sichuan, the Land of Abundance, which made Fukang'an's statement quite convincing.

Therefore, the interest of the Green Banner soldiers is quite high now.

Just wait for Master Fukang Anfu to lead everyone to break through Tongguan and go to Guanzhong to make a fortune.

"There is a lot of movement in Tongguan. It seems that the religious bandits are likely to leave the pass and enter Henan. The religious bandits are good at coercion. Shanzhou and Henan must fortify the walls and clear the wilderness. It is better to gather all the people and food into the pass city!"

"In addition, arrange good people in all the cities where the food is stored. Once the bandits break the city, they must wipe out all the food! Poison the water source! I want the bandits to starve to death and die of thirst!"

Fukang'an asked all the officials and defenders of Shanzhou and Henan to make preparations to fortify the walls and clear the fields.

As long as the army of the kingdom of heaven can't get supplies on the spot, they have to drag long supply lines to fight. In this way, the bandits have nothing to fear.

"Hooray! Hooray!"

Tongguan.

Heavenly Army Barracks.

A total of more than 1 soldiers were summoned from Zhechong Mansions, arranged in a neat square formation, shouting slogans happily, and accepting the inspection of the King of Heaven.

These government soldiers have won farms one by one. It is the time when they are full of ambitions and at the same time eager to make progress.

After all, the land in the kingdom of heaven is not evenly distributed, and the size of the land is of course different for different status.

From government soldiers to military officers at all levels, as well as various princes and princes.

There is a strict hierarchy to distinguish.

And this level is not solidified.

Rather, it can be seen and touched.

For these soldiers who rebelled with the White Lotus Sect.

It seems like they just have to try harder.

You can also get [-] mu of fertile land, and the future of princes and lords for thousands of generations.

Heavenly King Liu Zhixie took the lead, and behind him were Wen Wang Zhang Hanchao, Wu Wang Yao Zhifu, Da Guogong Wang Sanhuai, Ji Guogong Xu Tiande, Tao Guogong Zhang Zhengmo, and Qi Guogong Nie Jieren.

Since the land king Qi Lin was so focused on holding hands with the princesses, he no longer cared about the matter.

All his subordinates now belong to the Heavenly King Liu Zhixie.

In addition, Zhang Hanchao and Yao Zhifu, the two princes of the kingdom of heaven, are also on the side of the heavenly king.

Therefore, Liu Zhixie's strength is definitely the strongest in this kingdom of heaven.

But at the same time.

Like Wang Sanhuai, Xu Tiande and others.

The strength of his subordinates should not be underestimated.

This parade.

It was actually a deterrent.

The more than 2 mansion soldiers in the Kingdom of Heaven are all directly led by Liu Zhixie's Tianwang Mansion.

Plus his Heavenly King's fiefdom, and the soldiers and horses in the fiefdoms of the other three princes.

Liu Zhixie can control more than [-] troops.

And the sum of these other father-in-laws is about this number-here refers to the veterans who can go to battle to kill the enemy, not just to make up the number.

Although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is known as a million soldiers.

But in fact, most of them are coerced to make up the number.

The total force that can really be drawn into battle.

It's about [-].

In fact, this is already incredible.

Take the ruins of Guanzhong.

It can also support [-] soldiers.

This kind of system is almost a military state system that uses the strength of the whole society to support the army.

It can burst out a powerful force in a short period of time.

But the same.

under such a system.

But it is also necessary to fight in all directions, otherwise it will backfire on itself. Similarly, once the battle is defeated, such a system is very likely to collapse quickly!
"How, with such strong soldiers, can my kingdom of heaven go straight to Huanglong and defeat the capital in one battle!"

Satisfied, Liu Zhixie turned his head and smiled at the heavenly princes behind him.

"How can the Qing Dynasty resist such a strong army!"

"The Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty are like this. When we entered Chang'an, we killed thousands of them!"

"Eight Banners can't do it, and neither can the Green Camp! I think the Qing Dynasty is already in decline, and the world will be a struggle between our Heavenly Kingdom and Nanming!"

Several Heavenly Lords said happily when they saw the grandeur of the Heavenly Mansion soldiers just now.

"Hahahaha! The emperor of the Zhu family, although he has some luck for a while, he is not a hero after all! He already has Jiangnan in his hands, but he doesn't know the reason for this vigorous effort, then decline, and three times exhaustion! It is a waste of time to send troops to Jiangnan! , To let Qianlong back to the capital, I am afraid that there is a small calculation of the snipe and the clam fighting for the fisherman's profit! This kind of calculation, this kind of mind, half of the world is already a blessing!"

Liu Zhixie sneered.

He looked like he didn't take Daming seriously.

When the princes looked at each other in blank dismay.

Zhang Hanchao went on to say: "The emperor of the Zhu family built large-scale construction projects in the south, overhauled palaces, ports, and railways, and took the daughters of the southern clans and surrounding vassal states as concubines. Since the beginning of his kingdom, he has been so disrespectful to the power of the people, and he is so lustful. I have long been addicted to the gentle and weak Jiangnan, and I can't extricate myself! Jiangnan is not a place for heroes to use their skills. As long as our heavenly kingdom wins the Central Plains, this world will belong to the kingdom of heaven!"

Everyone nodded after hearing the words, and they all felt reasonable.

"Let the emperor of the Zhu family enjoy a few more years in the south of the Yangtze River. After we win the Central Plains, we will go south to flatten the south of the Yangtze River and rule the world!"

"Yes, yes, yes! In the future, we will capture the emperor of the Zhu family to Chang'an, and make him a prince. If we don't have a chance, we will say something about the joy here, and I don't think about it."

"Ha ha ha ha."

In the public discussion.

Liu Zhixie stretched out his hand, and everyone fell silent.

"For this expedition, no matter what this Qingta wants to do, we only have one goal!"

"Go north! Go north!! Go to Beijing, fight for the world, and make a fortune!"

"Go to Beijing! Fight for the world! Make a fortune!"

a time.

thunderous cheers.

Just when the two forces in northern China were about to engage in a large-scale confrontation.

There is a large fleet.

It has also bypassed the southernmost tip of the South Asian subcontinent, entered the Bay of Bengal, and sailed north.

The Mi Ziqi on the fleet shows the identity of this fleet!
This is starting from the British mainland. After nearly three months of sailing, it finally arrived at the British Eastern Intervention Fleet in India! !

The flagship of the fleet is a first-class sailing battleship with a full load displacement of [-] tons.

HMS Victory, a first-class battleship of the Royal Navy.

Lieutenant Admiral Nelson, commander of the Eastern Intervention Fleet, and Richard Wellesley, the new Governor of India of the British Empire who came with George III's new Indian policy, sat in the top cabin with the best view, staring not far away. This huge continent.

"We'll be in Calcutta in three days!"

Richard Wellesley said.

"Do you have any plans, Your Excellency the General?"
