The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 671 Concentrated Explosion

Chapter 671 Concentrated Explosion
Emperor Chongzhen admired He Kegang's loyalty and bravery, and he didn't delay a day to start ordering troops.

Since the overall situation in Ming Dynasty was good last year, the civilian and military generals were full of confidence during the court meeting, and finally it was unanimously recognized that the dispatch of elite soldiers and generals would give the Qing army color.

The Ministry of War immediately transferred Heihu to lead [-] Shanhaiguan troops, Lu Chengzu led [-] Denglai troops, Datai Jiqing Geertai led [-] Neikha cavalry, and Cheng Dashi led [-] troops to Ningyuan, a total of [-] The elite went to rescue Jinzhou.

This time, the 2 horses are all elite soldiers of the "God of War", and the emperor is confident, because he has not yet discovered that the "God of War" troops have suffered defeat.

Of course, it is natural to use culture to control martial arts. Cheng Dashi was appointed as the governor of Liaodong to coordinate and command the reinforcements of Jinzhou.

The emperor sent Liu Yingkun, a great eunuch who was familiar with the situation in Liaodong, to supervise the army, promoted Ye Chengjing to be the deputy envoy of Zhengwupin Ningqiandao, and dispatched Gao Zhimou to serve as Zhengsipin Ningqiandao's military equipment.

The rescue force dispatched by the imperial court has a strong lineup, each of them is a man who dares to fight. They are going to teach Jiannu a lesson with He Kegang under the city of Jinzhou.

Unexpectedly, Hauge's dispatch of troops was just a tactical illusion to mobilize the Ming army to Liaodong. They did not fight the Ming army at all. The Sancha River and the Ming army faced off across the river.

Hongxie laughed when he learned that the Ming army came to rescue the Jinzhou troops. The purpose of sending his son to harass Jinzhou was to drag down a part of the Ming army. Now it is better than expected. The "God of War" soldiers that the Qing army fears most Was attracted to Jinzhou.

His plan was completely successful, and it became possible to plunder Daming capital again to obtain a large amount of money, population and supplies.

At this time, the Jiannu and Tazi coalition forces headed by Yuetuo broke into the side wall by bypassing Mongolia.

Wang Zhaokun, the imperial censor of the Ming Dynasty, led the army to fight, but unfortunately the strength was disparate and he was defeated and died.

Fortunately, misfortunes never come singly. The rogues who seemed to have stopped for a while seemed to know that Daming was attacked by the Qing army and broke out again.

Those were the people in Shanshan and Henan who were still living in dire straits, and the imperial court did not effectively solve the livelihood of the common people at all, and a single spark immediately turned into a prairie fire.

The urgent request for help from six hundred miles in many places once again frightened the princes of Daming Gungun out of their wits, the price of the capital soared again, and rumors spread again for a while.

Emperor Chongzhen learned last year that the slave chieftain had proclaimed himself emperor, and he was furious but helpless. There are too many small countries around Ming Dynasty, and each country calls itself a king, and few of them openly call themselves emperor.

Hongxie not only founded the country "Great Qing", but also claimed to be "a lenient, gentle and benevolent emperor", which is tolerable or unbearable.

Chongzhen was planning whether he could take the initiative to send troops to fight against rebellion, but he never knew that he would come to his door aggressively again.

This is also different from the past. The Qing army actually used troops on two fronts at the same time. This shows that Jiannu is not what it used to be, and its strength is extraordinary.

According to the Ministry of War, 5000 troops were conscripted by Shandong General Liu Zeqing, Shanxi General Wang Zhong and Mengruhu 4000, Datong General Wang Pu, Baoding General Dong Yongwen 5000 each, Ji and Mi each General Ma Shilong, Li Chongzhen, and You Shiwei. 9000 people joined the aid.

Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng who suppressed the bandits in Shanshan and Henan had insufficient troops and had to fight the bandits to the death. Fortunately, these two men had talents.

Zhu Yujian, king of the Tang Dynasty, asked to lead his troops to serve the king, but Chongzhen refused. Zhu Yujian actually disregarded the ancestral rule that "vassal kings do not command soldiers", recruited troops without authorization, and personally led thousands of guards from Nanyang to the north to serve the king.

The king of the Tang Dynasty traveled to Yuzhou with his troops, and the governor Yang Shengwu went to the court, and Emperor Chongzhen was furious and ordered him to return.

Later, Zhu Yujian did not meet the Qing army, but he fought against a few gangsters on the way, fought randomly for a few rounds, and won each other, and finally returned to the Nanyang fiefdom.

In the Ming Dynasty, there were several lessons learned from the rebellion of the vassal kings, and the vassal kings were extremely guarded. According to the regulations of the Ming Dynasty, the vassal kings could enjoy themselves in the palace as much as they wanted, but they could not raise troops and leave the vassals.

Even though Zhu Yujian's motives were pure, Emperor Chongzhen still felt that the prince had ulterior motives. He had no choice but to deal with Huang Sheng, the king of Qiongya County with [-] armor, and it would be a piece of cake to deal with a Tang king with only a thousand people.

In the autumn of the tenth year of Chongzhen, the emperor decreed that King Tang was abolished as a commoner, and sent Jin Yiwei to arrest Zhu Yujian and send him to Fengyang for confinement. Emperor Chongzhen changed his younger brother Zhu Yukai to be King of Tang.

At this time, bad news came from Xiangyang. The rogue Zhang Xianzhong succeeded in attacking Xiangyang, Zhu Yiming, the king of Xiang, was killed.

There was also bad news. Tang Wang Zhu Yujian, who had been relegated to common people, was attacked by Zhang Xianzhong's troops on the way to escort Fengyang. Jin Yiwei killed more than [-] school lieutenants, and the deposed Tang King disappeared. He was suspected to have died in the rebellion.

Old and new grudges welled up in his heart, and Chongzhen wished he could eat the skin of Zhang Xianzhong's flesh and blood bed.

However, the same thing happened, bandits and slaves broke out concentratedly, the already extremely fragile balance of Ming Dynasty was broken again, and the people's livelihood was once again staged with swords and soldiers everywhere.

The memorials for urgent help from many places flew into the capital and landed on Longshu's desk. The booklet asking for payment was several feet high, and the emperor saw Alexander.

The two important ministers Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng who were worthy of a battle were both trapped by food and pay. It was not uncommon for soldiers under their command to flee due to hunger, and their combat effectiveness of course plummeted.

There is no food for thousands of miles in Shaanxi. How difficult it is for the Huang family to transport grain from land to Shanxi and Shaanxi.

The poor food that arrived on the ground was to save the people who were starving for food, and often a night of sticky rice porridge could bring a sweat from the Qin Dynasty back from the brink of death.

Precious food is used for emergency relief, and cannot be supplied to the 10,000+ Ming army. Of course, Wuyi and Zuo Shouquan are not saviors. Their purpose is clear, and they care about whether the common people can leave Tongguan alive and go to Haizhou Port.

In this era, it is indeed too difficult to transport food not along the coast or along the river. The Huang family resolutely gave up free assistance to the officers and soldiers.

Due to the lessons learned by Zuo Liangyu, there are very few officers and soldiers who dare to take food on the spot, so there is no way to ask the court for food and payment one by one.

However, the imperial court had no money and food, and even the military salary could not sustain it. Chongzhen, who was suffering from never-ending, and Chongzhen who was struggling alone, felt infinitely desolate.

In the death of King Xiang and the abandoned King of Tang, someone will always be blamed. The upright Lu Xiangsheng and the slippery Hong Chengchou cannot escape the blame. In the end, of course, the honest people suffer.

Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, Ge Liyan He Yilong, Lao Hui Hui Ma Shouying, etc. got the interaction of Jiannu again, and the team suddenly expanded like a snowball.

Everything is a double-edged sword. Huang Sheng ordered his subordinates to spare no effort to save the lives of the common people regardless of the cost. As a result, the population base of Shanshan and Henan was far larger than the history.
