Chapter 78 Refers to Life and Death and Banner General Han Bing

Chapter 78 Refers to Life and Death and Banner General Han Bing

Just when Zhu Daohua entered Guangzhou City with a mighty army.

Pass the fast horse station.

Emperor Qianlong in Beijing has already received news from Guangdong.

The first-class bodyguard, Guerja Eredenbao, the minister of the interior of the bodyguard, stood in the corner.

In March, the spring in Beijing is cold and cold.

However, the West Nuan Pavilion in the Hall of Mental Cultivation is surrounded by heating pipes, so it is quite warm.

At least Eredenbao didn't feel any chill.

But the few Manchu and Han officials kneeling in front of Emperor Qianlong didn't think so.

They looked worried, even a little scared.

Seeing Eredengbao couldn't help but look worried.

Could it be that something happened in Guangdong?
As a first-class bodyguard, he fought Jinchuan and Jinchuan with Agui, and went to Taiwan with Fukang'an to put down Lin Shuangwen's rebellion.

Eredengbao can be regarded as a well-known soldier in the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

During this time, Qianlong also sent him an errand.

That is, according to the Ming Army Army Drill Code sent up below, three thousand Beijing Battalions and Eight Banners were ordered to practice.

Although it is a shotgun, it is said that it will be replaced with a flintlock soon.

During this period of time, the minister of the guards was often summoned by Emperor Qianlong to inquire about the training of the "Ming-style army".

But in Eredenbao's view.

This "Ming Army Code of Exercises" is nothing more than mediocre.

It's nothing more than walking in the queue, practicing shooting, and cooperating with artillery.

In his opinion.

It is better to use bows and arrows than muskets.

Eredengbao is a Manchurian Batulu who is famous for his physical strength and can draw a strong bow.

It's hard to hit a musket from a hundred paces away, even worse than a bow and arrow.

And loading is too much trouble.

Even for skilled soldiers, it takes thirty breaths to complete a reload.

Although it is said that if it is replaced with a flintlock, it can be arranged in a tighter queue. At the same time, it is said that a short blade can be inserted on the gun, and the flintlock can be turned into a short spear. .

But that's it.

In thirty breaths, Eredengbao himself could shoot four or five arrows with a bow.

And it can be done within a hundred steps, without any mistakes.

Far more powerful than muskets.

Of course.

Archers like Eredenbao.

Among the current Eight Banners in Beijing, there is at most one hand.

So Eredenbao also knew that the biggest advantage of this musket over bows and arrows was that it was easy to train.

Before that, Eredenbao hadn't used muskets much.

As a result, it only took him two or three days to be very proficient in using it—that is to say, it would take a month at most for a mature man with normal IQ to use it proficiently.

And what about the archers?
Don't talk about training to the level of Eredenbao.

It will take three to five years to train to the point where you can draw a bow.

In the past, Eight Banners soldiers even drew bows and arched arrows.

Practiced since childhood.

But now an ordinary Han farmer spends ten days and a half months figuring out how to use a musket, and can fight an elite archer a little bit.

This is horrible.

It is absolutely right for Guochao to strictly control fire looting.

But now Fan Hai came against Ming, and got the method of manufacturing more powerful muskets and artillery from elsewhere.

This is against the light.

It is really a big trouble for the country!

"Read it all, read it all! More than 600 letters, all from Guangdong, Guangxi, Jiangxi, Hunan, and Guizhou Green Camp leaders, from the generals to the generals, there is really no one behind ah!"

The anger in Emperor Qianlong's tone brought Eredengbao back from his thoughts.

He came here today as usual to report the training situation of the "new army" to Emperor Qianlong.

As a result, as soon as he entered the door, Emperor Qianlong asked him to wait first, and then sent someone to call the three military ministers He Shen, Sun Shiyi, Dong Gao, Dongge University scholar, Rites Minister Wang Jie, and Shangshufang Chief Master Liu Yong to the west. Snapper.

These few are all ministers of the court and important ministers of the country.

Call them together.

It must be a big deal.

Just when Eredenbao was thinking.

Emperor Qianlong's voice sounded again.

"What, are you all dumb? It's amazing. As soon as Niming came, the Hanchen of the Green Camp surrendered!"

"130 two generals from the Green Camp, more than 300 guerrillas, and more than [-] military officers at all levels, including the Dusi, the Garrison, the General Commander, and the Commander-in-Chief. They also wrote letters to the old men of the Green Camp in the southern provinces to persuade them to surrender. You are really a loyal minister against Ming!"

what?
Eleden could hardly believe his ears.

More than 600 green battalion military officers attached to rebel thieves? !

This.
This is really incredible.

These green management officials of the Qing Dynasty were all benefactors of the country.

Han people.

It really is unbelievable!
"Liu Yong, tell me, can you still believe the 80 green battalion soldiers in my Qing Dynasty? Do you still dare to believe it?"

Liu Yong is a great Confucianist in the world.

The reputation is very high.

After hearing the words, he immediately knelt up straight.

"Long live, whether the green battalion soldiers are credible or not, the key lies in the thought of long live."

"A moment in my mind?"

"Long live, how did the Qing Dynasty win the world?"

Liu Yong's question extinguished Qianlong's anger a lot.

The 79-year-old Qianlong is in fairly good health, and his thinking is fairly clear.

As an emperor who firmly controlled the Qing Empire for 55 years.

Qianlong immediately understood the crux of the problem.

"Yes. I almost fell for Zhu Daohua's trap!"

Qianlong paced back and forth a few steps.

"Thousands of green camp military officers surrendered collectively, there must be fraud in it!"

"Decree, the collective surrender of the green battalion military officers and Guangdong officials is a strategy against the Ming Dynasty to separate the Manchu and the Han. I don't believe it at all. These officials have all died for the country. They are all loyal and good in the Qing Dynasty. Their families should also be taken care of. Don't let the loyal and good people be cold." Heart!"

It's a good move to live and die!
For Qianlong.

More than 2000 Green Camp military officers surrendered, and the military impact caused by the defeat of [-] Southern Green Camps was far less than the political impact of this incident.

In the military, although the green camps in the southern provinces lost nearly [-].

But it was originally in the Qing Dynasty.

The troops that can fight are all in the north.

Like the Sauron cavalry and the cavalry of Inner and Inner Mongolia.

Just the Green Battalion.

It is also based on the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp as the elite.

As for the green camps in the southern provinces.

Wasn't very good at fighting.

And it is also very scattered in ownership.

Take the green camp in Guangdong as an example.

Tens of thousands of horses.

It is under the jurisdiction of the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, the governor of Guangdong, the admiral of Guangdong, the commander of the navy, and the commander of each prefecture.

In normal times, of course, it is to prevent the local generals from arrogating their troops and adopting a method of restraining each other.

But in wartime.

This approach is not suitable.

Therefore, although the number of these southern green battalion soldiers lost is large.

But for the Qing Dynasty.

It's still far from being broken.

On the contrary, thousands of military officers from the Green Camp surrendered, which immediately revealed a problem in the Qing Dynasty that everyone knew about, but no one could talk about, and it couldn't be put on the table: use less to control the greatness, and use the full to control the Han!
This is the Qing Dynasty.

It was the Great Qing Dynasty of the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

The benefits of the Qing Dynasty.

More than half belong to the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

The entire Qing Dynasty was a system that enslaved most of the Han people to support millions of hard-core crops of the Eight Banners!
The surrender of these Green Camp Han military attaches.

It opened up the uneasiness hidden in the heart of the Manchurian ruling class-they are not the same as the Han people, and they are even ready to return to the wild forests in the northeast at any time.

And the surrender of these Han people may also have a very bad demonstration effect.

Let the morale of the green battalion float.

If the more than 80 green battalion soldiers become chaotic.

This paving shop in the Qing Dynasty can no longer be maintained.

After all, it started from the time of Kangxi.

The pillar of force of the Qing Dynasty has become a green battalion.

on the other hand.

The Han official class cannot be chaotic.

Without the help of Han bureaucrats, how could the Qing Dynasty rule such a large area.

The military and civil officials of the Han people can't be messed up.

Then this matter cannot be expanded, not only cannot be pursued, but must be covered up as much as possible.

So Qianlong could only pinch his nose and "say death" to those green camp military officers and Han officials who surrendered to Zhu Daohua.

One or two have become die-hard loyal ministers of the Qing Dynasty.

"Long live God is wise."

Liu Yong shouted.

Isn't it wise?

If Qianlong insisted on this matter, he would punish those military attaches from the green battalion and local civil servants in Guangdong who surrendered, and pull their families out to have fun.

This is great fun.

The entire green battalion was uneasy.

The local Han civil officials are afraid that they are also silent.

If it is a time of peace and prosperity.

Doing so will create a few more major cases at most.

Kill a few more people.

Anyway, the Qing court has never been lenient when it comes to killing people.

But now it's different.

That Daming shop opened in Guangdong.

The scholar-bureaucrats of the Han people had other choices, but they might not hang themselves on the tree of the Qing Dynasty.

If the Han people are renounced.

Relying on the Eight Banners of Manchuria and Mongolia
I am afraid that the situation of the Qing Dynasty will not be maintained.

At that time, the Qing Dynasty may retreat to the outside of the pass early, and there may still be a few decades of Guozuo.
Otherwise, it is not impossible for the whole family to be slaughtered.

Of course Liu Yong knew it too.

Zhu Mingwang of Guangdong made a bigger situation.

This is the Qing Dynasty.

The more you rely on Han scholars and officials.

When the Qing Dynasty entered the customs.

The Han people can even become kings.

There are even sleeping queen mothers.

Not anymore.

Of course it doesn't mean that you can't sleep with the Empress Dowager - don't say that Emperor Qianlong's mother has been hiccupping for a long time, and she can't sleep even if she wants to sleep. Even if Qianlong dies, any of his sons will succeed to the throne.

His queen is also 70 years old.

Who can sleep?

Just when Liu Yong's head thinking diverged.

Qianlong named Sun Shiyi again.

Sun Shiyi was originally a civil servant with a Jinshi background.

In the 34th year of Qianlong's reign, when Fu Heng, a senior scholar, went to Burma, Sun Shiyi was in charge of Zhang Zuo.After the war, Sun Shiyi was awarded the title of doctor of the household department and promoted to Shaoqing of Dali Temple.He was appointed as the chief envoy of Guangxi.Soon he was promoted to governor of Yunnan.

Sun Shiyi, who had made military exploits, later became the governor of Guangdong and the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.

Among the civil officials of the Han people, they are considered soldiers.

Moreover, he has worked in Guangdong and Guangxi for a long time, and is very familiar with the affairs of Guangdong and Guangxi.

"Sun Shiyi, you know the soldiers, what should you do about the Guangdong matter?"

Faced with Qianlong's question, Sun Shiyi obviously did his homework.

"Long live, Ni Ming's soldiers are fine and powerful. The 10,000+ soldiers and horses concentrated in Guangdong and Guangxi are still defeated by them. It is not suitable to fight again in the short term. We should send important officials to mobilize elite Eight Banners to go south, integrate the green battalions of the southern provinces, train elite soldiers, and station troops in Ganzhou Prefecture to prevent Go north against Ming."

"In addition, Fu Kang'an, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, must be recalled. He has fought with Ni Ming several times, so he must know more about Ni Ming. The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. Why don't you ask Ji Fu Kang'an for a strategy to calm Guangdong?"

As the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Fukang'an lost Guangdong province.

It stands to reason that the person who pulled out the official should be questioned.

However, Sun Shiyi and Fukang'an had an old relationship. Although he said that he would recall Fukang'an this time, he did not mention asking for guilt.

Qianlong pondered for a moment when he heard the words.

It is necessary to mobilize the Eight Banners to go south.

Now whether the Southern Green Camp can be relied on, Qianlong himself is muttering.

At the crucial moment.

The most reliable is the Eight Banners.

on the other hand.

The Ming army against the Ming seems to be particularly capable of fighting.

Ten thousand infantry defeated one hundred thousand green camps.

Now Fukang'an only has five thousand eight banners and ten thousand green battalions left in his hands.

In any case, it is impossible to fight Ni Ming again.

But it is not so easy to rectify the southern green camp.
"He Shen, how do you think the Southern Green Camp will be rectified?"

Qianlong looked at He Shen, the only Manchu minister present.

"Your Majesty, this servant thinks that we should mobilize the strong and strong men from the green battalion to form a new army, and use the bannermen to control the Han soldiers."

He Shen said hurriedly.

Now the commander of the Southern Green Battalion doesn't know if they can be trusted.

It cannot be abolished arbitrarily.

It would be better not to mobilize these green battalion military officers.

The elite were directly drawn from the green battalion, and then the bannermen were used as generals.

It's similar to the Zhongyong Camp run by Fukang'an.

"It is not advisable to take too much action to rectify the green battalion, so as not to cause panic among the people. It is better to recruit strong and strong people from the green battalion, use the bannermen as generals, and the Han people as soldiers. "

Qianlong didn't speak when he heard the words.

Heshen belongs to the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

Of course he was seeking the interests of the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

After more than 100 years of reproduction.

The population of the Eight Banners has changed from hundreds of thousands to millions.

Now every household in the Eight Banners of Manchuria does not have children who are idle at home and have no official positions?

Use the bannerman as the general of the green battalion.

The Eight Banners disciples are happy.

But what would these Han Chinese think?
After pondering for a moment, Qianlong made a decision.

Compared with dealing with Zhu Daohua.

These things can all be put on the back burner. ,

What's more, this is not to replace the Han generals of the green camp with bannermen.

It's just that they recruited elites from the green battalion to train the new army.

"Who will lead the Eight Banners to the south and train the new army?"

"How about the heroic official Zhangjia Agui?" He Shen suggested.

Zhang Jia Agui is now the most capable general in the Qianlong Dynasty.

Qianlong also felt that a general should be involved in this Guangdong matter.

He turned to look at Eredenbao.

"How is the situation of the disciples of the Eight Banners practicing against Ming military law recently?"

Erle Dengbao hurried forward: "Reporting to the emperor, I have almost practiced. Ni Ming's art of war is not complicated, but everything is arranged carefully, and it can be done according to the one-to-one practice in the book."

Qianlong nodded.

"Then you order two thousand and eight bannermen and go south with Agui. Another camp in Ganzhou is set up. The green camps in Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou, and Yunnan are all under the jurisdiction of Ganzhou Daying. The minister in charge of Ganzhou Daying, and the governor of Guangdong, Guangxi and Huguang, also called Fu Kang'an back to Beijing."

 The second change, asking for a monthly ticket
