Anti Qing

Chapter 129 Situation

Shaanxi.

"boom!"

A wealthy mansion was kicked open by a Dashun general in white arrow suit and hat.

Holding a saber, the man leaped in, turned around and shouted.

"By the order of Emperor Dashun Yongchang, kill the Qin Gang!"

"Jingyang Ma's family, as the leader of the Qin Clan, betrayed the country by collaborating with Jianlu, he should be punished for his crime!"

There are many servants and servants in the courtyard, but seeing the Dashun soldiers filing in, they dare not say a word.

The Dashun general rode on a tall horse, turned his saber in his hand, and pointed at Ma Tianxiang, the leader of the Qin Shang Gang who had just walked out of the room.

"The world today is full of disasters, and the Qing captives have penetrated into our land of China. The first culprit is your traitors!"

"Emperor Hongguang is stupid, and the Ming Dynasty is dead. Now Dashun is the court of the people. I, Dashun, will act on behalf of the heavens and expel the Qing captives from China. It is my duty!"

"The army obeyed the order and confiscated all the property of the Chamber of Commerce of the Qin Gang, and used it for Dashun to take over the world!"

"kill!"

"Don't leave chickens and dogs!"

With an order, the surrounding Dashun soldiers drew their swords and guns and rushed into the courtyard, killing everyone and kicking the door.

"Yes!"

The large courtyard that entered and exited several times turned into a hellish maze in an instant.

Such purity also appears in many places in Shaanxi at the same time.

Li Zicheng was well aware that the merchants had liaised with the Qing army, and there were endless riots against Dashun in Shaanxi. Most of them were collusion between these merchants and the landlords, but he never let go.

After the Tongguan victory, in addition to arranging defenses, Li Zicheng also began to clean up the interior.

In view of the changes that occurred during the torture and looting in Beijing, Li Zicheng first established strict regulations in the army and executed many generals and soldiers who took advantage of the chaos to loot their homes, and then began to clean up the opposition forces in Shaanxi.

The power of the Tongguan victory was not limited to improving the morale of Dashun's army. That victory also gave a blow to many people who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to welcome the Qing army.

Li Zicheng sat in Xi'an, affirmed military discipline, and personally inspected the drills. The Dashun Army soon became the righteous army during the Northern Expedition in Chongzhen's 17th year.

Now Li Zicheng has also realized the truth that the internal affairs must be settled before fighting against the outside world. With the edict of Xi'an, the Qin Clan, which has been rich and powerful for 300 years since the early Ming Dynasty, was immediately devastated.

Dashun began to deal with the Qin Gang and the local gentry forces connected with it. First, he determined the list, and then sent generals to various places to increase defenses and kick open the doors of houses from house to house.

For these traitors, Li Zicheng's strategy is the same as in the past. He doesn't care about sympathy, and he doesn't need any hard evidence.

For a time, there was a bloody storm in Shaanxi, and the disobedient landlords and businessmen in the local area were all wiped out by the whole family in all likelihood, with heads rolling and blood flowing like rivers.

Li Zicheng's iron fist method has its drawbacks, but in this age of war where every second counts, this is precisely the most effective method.

Under the control of the Dashun Army, the whole of Shaanxi has taken on a new look. The various materials and gold and silver handed over from the homes of the merchants and landlords have also made up for the shortage of the Dashun Army's food and supplies.

But the Qing army was not idle either. Duoduo, who was in Huaiqing, welcomed a distinguished guest.

"Who's here?"

Huaiqing, the camp of the Qing army.

Dodo stood up, very surprised.

After defeating Tongguan a few days ago, Duoduo followed the imperial edict sent by Dorgon and came to Huaiqing to recuperate.

Although there are still small groups of forces in Henan resisting the Qing Dynasty, they are basically not successful. Although Duoduo was defeated in Tongguan, he still leads the main force along the way, and there are a considerable number of Eight Banners forces.

After arriving in Henan, Duoduo fought a few small battles with the local anti-Qing armed forces in Henan, and all of them won big victories and obtained a lot of supplies. .

Today's Henan has basically been wiped out by Duoduo. Every day, the Qing court sends civil and military officials from Beijing to take over the area. It is estimated that within a few years, it will completely become the Qing Dynasty.

Duduo's subordinates have stayed in Huaiqing for more than two months. During this time, they also heard about the situation in Shaanxi and Huguang.

With the momentum of Tongguan victory, Dashun and Daqing gradually formed a tripartite situation in Shaanxi.

After the victory, Li Zicheng sat in Xi'an and issued edicts one after another, and the whole of Shaanxi has been mobilized.

On the one hand, Li Zicheng freed up his hands to attack the local forces in Shaanxi that were linked to the Qing army. More than a dozen forces in the pass have lost contact with Beijing.

On the other hand, Li Zicheng increased his troops to the north day by day.

Ma Shiyao was guarding Tongguan. Originally, his subordinates were only a few thousand people, but in the past two months, the Dashun Army in Tongguan had reached nearly [-], and every crenel was equipped with artillery transported from inside the pass.

According to what Azige sent back from Taiyuan, Ma Shiyao had surrounded Tongguan on the third and outer floors. Inside and outside Tongguan, there were fortifications built by Dashun everywhere, and it was no longer so easy to take them down.

In addition, Li Zicheng's third brother, Li Zijing, the king of Xiaochuang, led the front battalion to Huguang, and it has been more than a month.

The Qing army only knew a thing or two about the situation in Huguang.

Duo Duo had been defeated by Li Zijing in Tongguan, so he was very afraid of this person. In the past few days, he repeatedly went to the Shu, asking Dorgon to go to Huguang, but Dorgon rejected them all, and even issued an imperial edict asking him to go to Huguang. Do not act rashly in Huaiqing.

In terms of the Qing army, there was no idle day at all.

After Tongguan's defeat, Dorgon immediately issued an edict ordering Beilu Azig to withdraw to Shanxi and guard Taiyuan.

The offensive of the Qing army seemed to be frustrated with the battle of Tongguan.

The war-torn north seems to have ushered in a long-lost peace, but this is not the case.

This is not peace, this is a three month truce.

At the same time, the entire north was covered by dark clouds, and the main force of the Qing army was continuously gathering southward.

Qing troops in Xuanfu, Datong, Xuanhua, Yanghe, Juyong, Yongping, Zhending, etc. have been sent south for three consecutive months. It is said that hundreds of thousands of Qing troops have assembled in Shanxi and Huaiqing. It also includes a large number of green camps.

The Hauge Division, which was originally in Shandong, was also transferred to Henan, planning to split with Duoduo to capture Huguang.

Even Hong Chengchou, who was in Beijing, was sent to Taiyuan with Wu Sangui to take charge of the war in Xi'an.

According to Dorgon's strict order to Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui, as long as the war resumes, Xi'an must be captured within one month.

"It's absolutely true, it's Zuo Menggeng!" Kong Youde knelt under his seat with a smile on his face, as if he had some great happy event.

Dodo was still a little unbelievable, and he sat down slowly.

"This Zuo Menggeng, are you familiar with it?"

"He really has 60 troops in his hands, and he is willing to come to this king to surrender?"

Duoduo really couldn't believe that a man with 60 troops in his hand would be so pusty.

But Kong Youde's appearance is indeed convinced, he said.

"Zuo Liangyu died of illness on the river. Zuo Menggeng had Huang Degong before him and Li Zijing after him. He must have known that he was invincible, so he led his troops to the Qing Dynasty."

"My lord, let's go see you!"

Seeing this, Doduo couldn't say anything more.

In fact, he didn't trust these surrendered generals from the bottom of his heart, but Dorgon had reminded him more than once to treat the green battalion and the surrendered generals better, because in this way, more people would surrender.

Facts have proved that this set is indeed very useful.

If it is true that Zuo Menggeng came to surrender, these soldiers will greatly increase Duoduo's strength, and Huguang and even the whole of Jiangnan will be within easy reach.

　Recently, I have been working hard to prepare a new book, and I have taken on a lot of private work, so I didn't take care of this book, sorry.
