The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 132 On the occasion of life and death
At present, the Qing army's troops are basically in Fujian. According to Luo Chengyao's confession, Boluo's defenders in Jinhua and Quzhou add up to no more than [-].

The main force stationed in Shaoxing Mansion was more than 2 people selected from the Fang Guoan Ministry that had just surrendered.

Once Fang Guoan announced his return to the Ming Dynasty anyway, there would be a vacuum in Jianlu's troops in Zhejiang. If they wanted to control the situation in Zhejiang, they could only deploy troops from Fujian to go north.

If Xianxiaguan was strangled to death at this time, and Zhu Linming put away the map and looked north, Dorgon would definitely vomit blood and jump up and scold his mother.

He immediately remembered that another Qing army was going south to Guangxin Mansion.At that time, the Qing court is likely to let him retreat to deal with Fang Guoan, so Yang Tinglin can follow behind all the way.It is even possible to cooperate with the Fang Guoan Ministry to form a two-sided attack and completely eat up this enemy army.

"Boluo, Dorgon," he said coldly, "this time we invaded Fujian and killed Longwu, let's settle it slowly!"

During the few days when she returned to Changting Road, Zhu Linmi continued to improve the whole plan.

After all, Xianxia Pass is extremely steep, easy to defend but difficult to attack.In the event that Xianxia Pass cannot be captured quickly, it is also possible to deploy defenses on the spot at the pass and dig fortifications to prevent Jianlu's supplies from entering Fujian.

He even let go of Xianxia Pass, and instead used cavalry raid tactics in Jianchang Mansion to rob or burn the food and salaries brought in.

In short, as long as the strategic goal of forcing Boluo to give up attacking Fuzhou and return to the north, and conduct a decisive battle at the location selected by the Ming army is achieved, more than half of the victory will be won.

A few days later, Zhu Linmi led the team into Changting.

Huang Daozhou and others who had been waiting here for a long time only met his eyes, and when they saw him nodding, they knew that the big thing was over.But it was inappropriate to reveal it, and several people entered the government office with sad faces.

Jiang Neng and all the servants retreated, and Zhu Linmi asked the soldiers to carry Longwu's coffin in.

Due to the rapid march, Zhu Yujian's remains could only be buried in a very thin coffin, with some antiseptic spices in it.

Empress Zeng came from the back hall after hearing the news, she didn't bring eunuchs and maids with her, but she was still afraid that the news would leak out, so she didn't dare to cry loudly, she just bit her lips desperately and sobbed silently.

She wanted to reach out to touch the lid of the coffin several times, but she always withdrew her hand trembling, as if there was an invisible barrier outside the thin coffin.After a long time, she finally gave up, her legs went limp and she sat on a chair beside her, silently looking at the sky and weeping.

At Shenshi, Huang Daozhou managed to persuade the queen to go back to the house. At that time, his eyes were blood red from crying.

After Huang Daozhou left the back hall, he hurriedly drove to the Inspection Department, where several of their main officials agreed to discuss the current situation's response strategy.

When he arrived at the Second Hall of the Inspection Department, he saw Chen Wang, Zheng Chenggong, Jiang Zhengxi and Huang Mingjun all sitting down, waiting for him alone.

"Old Huang Ge."

"Master Ge, you are here."

Before Huang Mingjun went north to Jianchang, he was defeated by Boluo in front of Xianxia Pass, led his remnants all the way back to Tingzhou Prefecture, and was brought to Changting City by Huang Daozhou a few days ago.

After Huang Daozhou was seated, Zhu Linmei immediately said: "According to the confessions of the captives I captured a few days ago, half of Yanping has fallen into the enemy's hands. Boluo sent several groups to attack Funing, Xinghua, Quanzhou and other prefectures, and led them to the nearby The [-] main force headed towards Tianxing Mansion, and they will arrive in a month or so. Zheng Zhilong also dispatched a navy to support the pincer attack on the east sea."

As soon as he finished speaking, the others immediately exclaimed.

"The defenders and cannons of Tianxing Mansion have been transported to Anhai by Zheng Zhilong. How to defend against the enemy?"

"Currently, only King Chen's troops can fight in Fujing. King Chen should immediately go to Tianxing Mansion to defend."

Jiang Zhengxi coughed a few times, and said in a hoarse voice: "Under the current situation, King Chen will definitely not be able to go to Tianxing Mansion. If the bandits and captives surround the isolated city, not only will it be difficult to save the city, but there may also be a possibility of running out of food. According to what the last general saw, at this time, a strong man should cut off his wrist! Move the imperial court to the sea, take the water route to Jiangxi, and then plan to develop."

Zhu Linmi immediately shook her head and said: "Jiang Zongbing can't do this. It is the best policy to move the capital to Jiangxi when there is Fujian. If Fujian is lost, Jiangxi will be surrounded by enemies on three sides. There is no danger to the east of the Ganjiang River. The captives will come out from Shanguan. Jianchang, Guangxin and other prefectures fell in an instant.

"Fujian is also a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is easy to lose. If you want to get it back, you have to conquer the dangerous pass of Shanguan, and the price you pay at that time is incalculable.

"Furthermore, moving the court when there is no foreign enemy will still cause fluctuations. At this time, if the enemy is present, if the court is moved, it will definitely cause chaos. He Tengjiao, Ding Kui and Chu, who were originally half-hearted, will definitely be even more alienated from the court. The king is watching from the sidelines, if one is not careful, Daming will fall apart!"

In addition, Zhu Linming still has no reason to say, Fujian is still an important foreign trade port, if he loses here, his plan to save the Ming economy by sea trade will not be implemented.With a financially deteriorating Ming Dynasty, what would it take to expel Jianlu and restore the country?
