Chapter 673 Re-walking Dongjiang Road!
Faced with Du Du's conspiracy, the three Luo Luohun brothers were so weak that they could not resist their thighs. Even though they were extremely unhappy, they could only prepare overnight. The next morning, they began to gather troops and rushed to the southern Liaoning direction.
At this time, Dorgon, the capital, also received news from southern Liao.
Dorgon received the news on his way to the morning court, and his mood suddenly became unrest!
He was actually always on guard against Xu Changqing and was always prepared for it, but when he heard Xu Changqing's move, and it was the heartland of southern Liaoning in the Qing Dynasty, he still couldn't help but grit his teeth!
Xu Changqing is so sinister and too cunning!
He was indeed not in the trap!
He rushed to the morning court and listened briefly to the northwest report. Then Dorgon told the story about southern Liao.
"this……"
The Manchu and Mongolian royals and Han slaves who were immersed in the good situation in the northwest were like ducks that were strangled to death.
On the dragon throne, the little emperor Shunzhi, whose little face was tighter than the adults, suddenly shook his body.
A motherless child is already a family!
Although Shunzhi was still young at this time, he was very smart. These hardships made him much more mature than his peers.
Especially when he was alone and in this huge Forbidden City, he looked around and there was no one he could trust. If he was not strong, how could he survive?
Life had taught him to shut up and he was busy looking at everyone's faces secretly.
Hong Chengchou's good mood at this time had long been destroyed, and he frowned and said, "Emperor, Regent, Xu Changqing's move is to restrain our Qing Dynasty. We have to be careful of this matter!"
At this time, Hong Chengchou could be said to have at least most of the plans of the Qing Dynasty. He was also very satisfied with the situation at this time and made many deductions on Xu Changqing's journey.
But he never thought that Xu Changqing had no intention of entering Huguang to participate in the battle. This made him feel like he had a hard punch, but it hit the air, and it was indescribable...
Fan Wencheng said: "Emperor, Regent, there is no need to worry too much about this matter. In the opinion of a slave, Xu Changqing must leave most of the main forces in Haicheng to guard against our Qing Dynasty. There will never be too many people who can go to southern Liaoning. We only need to send a few troops to feint attack Haicheng, and the danger in southern Liaoning will be solved without attacking. However, Xu Changqing is trapped in Haicheng, which is a disaster..."
As Hong Chengchou and Fan Wencheng spoke, others also expressed their opinions.
It's very different.
They didn't care much about the model army's "harassment" of Liaonan, and they were more concerned about Haicheng.
Dorgon suddenly sneered: "Xu Changqing does not have many people, but he has killed all the members of my Qing Dynasty in Gaizhou!"
As he said that, Dorgon threw out the secret report and threw it hard to the ground.
"this……"
Everyone was a little scared, and a little eunuch hurriedly picked up the secret newspaper and handed it over to the ministers for circulating.
After seeing the reports of the young manchus above, the venue suddenly became cold and cold.
They had done this kind of thing countless times with the people of the Ming Dynasty, and no one cared about it. Even Han slaves had already become accustomed to it.
However!
At this time, the situation changed. Their clan members of the Qing Dynasty were actually slaughtered in Gaizhou...
No Han slaves dared to express their opinions.
Prince Li Dai Shan, who is already in twilight, came out and said: "The emperor, the regent, Xu Changqing is vicious and must be curbed as soon as possible. Otherwise,
Once the news reaches Huguang, it will definitely add to the ups and downs!"
Gong Aday and others also expressed their opinions that they must stop Xu Changqing's arrogance and that the situation must not continue to expand.
After all, the core of the Qing Dynasty had basically entered the pass, and both Liaoyang, Chenyang, and Laozhai were quite empty.
Once they fail to deal with it in time, there is a very likely situation that will cause unpredictable major changes, and even the tragic scene of Shanhaiguan will be staged again...
Dorgon couldn't help but breathe a long sigh and looked at Dai Shan: "Prince Li, I will ask you for this matter!"
Dai Shan had expected this, but he did not refuse and said deeply: "Slave obeys the order!"
...
In the evening, Xu Changqing received news that the main force of the Shanhaiguan Enanghongqi Division had sent troops.
At this time, the three guards in southern Liaoning had basically been cleaned up by the Model Army. Except for some Zhuangzi, villages, Gaizhou, Fuzhou, Jinzhou, and Lushun, which were located deep inland, they were already under the control of the Model Army.
Although not many people captured the population and property, there were many war horses and livestock.
There are more than 5,000 war horses, and nearly 4,000 oxen. As for sheep, chickens and ducks, there are more poultry, which can be said to be a lot of money.
Gaizhou Official Department.
Xu Changqing and the model army generals were also holding military discussions.
Zhang Long said: "Master General, Luo Luohun and his brothers are still very clever. Although they are sending troops, they are not moving quickly. They are probably waiting for news from Dorgon. At their speed, it will probably take at least five or six days, or even more to reach southern Liaoning. At that time, these people can basically board the ship. With a humble opinion, there is no need for us to set up an ambush battlefield in southern Liaoning. It is better to go back to Haicheng first. If the Qing army dares to invade, our model army will hold the land of Haicheng, and they will definitely not return!"
Zhang Long’s statement was approved by many people, and Hong Niang nodded frequently.
By this time, the plan was going very smoothly, and everyone was in a good mood and were planning how to set up an ambush against the Qing army in Haicheng.
The smile on Xu Changqing's face was also very gentle, and he nodded frequently.
By this time, the thinking ability and understanding of wars of the generals have begun to spread. Even though they are still incomparable to the sequence of famous generals, they are already above the level.
However, after the crowd was excited and said almost the same, Xu Changqing suddenly laughed and said, "Everyone said it well, but I still decided to stay in southern Liaoning to set up an ambush!"
"Stay, stay in southern Liaoning to set up an ambush, Grand Marshal, why is this?"
All the generals were a little confused, and the Hongniang looked at Xu Changqing speechlessly. Fortunately, she had already gotten used to it. The man in front of her never likes to play according to common sense, even in that matter...
Xu Changqing was not in a hurry, leaving some reaction time for the generals, and said slowly: "Everyone has a good idea, and many of them are very feasible, but I wonder if you have thought about it! If the main force of my model army returns to Haicheng and then go to Haicheng, which main force of the Qing army will be?"
Without waiting for the generals to answer, Xu Changqing's momentum suddenly changed and he said coldly: "At that time, the main forces of the Qing army must have been there! If it is in such a state, can you still set up an ambush on them?"
"this……"
Everyone was shocked and gasped, and began to understand what Xu Changqing meant.
The Hongniang also came to her senses, and her chest kept rising and falling.
As Xu Changqing said, returning to Haicheng and fighting with the local government seems to be more secure, but in fact he gives up the initiative in the war!
Because it will be a large-scale battle, I want to wipe out the Qing Dynasty.
It is simply unrealistic for any army to be a part of the army.
But if it stayed in southern Liaoning, how could the Qing army take the bait so easily?
Thinking of this, the Hongniang bit her red lips and said, "Master, Luo Luohun brothers are obviously afraid of us. They must wait until all the main forces of the Red Flag come over before they will attack us. At that time, the main forces of the Red Flag Arrival will arrive, or most of them... How can we set up an ambush?"
Xu Changqing smiled faintly and said confidently: "Simple!"
As he said that, Xu Changqing pointed his hand and pointed directly at a point on the map, which was Zhenjiang City (now Dandong)!
"this……"
Zhang Long couldn't help but gasp, and had already captured Xu Changqing's thoughts, "Master, what do you mean is, we, we have to follow the old path of Mao Shuai back then..."
Xu Changqing focused on the key point: "Not bad! Everyone rested for a long time today, and officially set off after dark tonight! We will take over Zhenjiang and Yizhou within three days and enter the Kuandian Mountains!"
...
Zhenjiang is a pearl on the banks of the Yalu River.
It was the gathering place where Changbai Mountain Ginseng and Korean Ginseng at this time, including various precious Chinese herbal medicines and northern fur.
Although the population is not too large, only tens of thousands, it is quite prosperous.
Back then, Mao Wenlong set out from Guangning, crossed the Liaohai Sea thousands of miles away, and successfully attacked Zhenjiang City, which laid the foundation for the Dongjiang Army.
Unfortunately, for various reasons, Zhenjiang City was eventually lost...
However, Mao Wenlong had been rooted in Lingyang Fort for more than ten years and was very familiar with the surrounding terrain. In the following years, the Dongjiang Army had been fighting with the Qing army. Mao Wenlong tried to pick up the shortcuts in Kuandian Mountains several times, heading straight to the old village, stabbed the Qing army's chrysanthemums, and used this misalignment to destroy the foundation of the Jurchens.
It’s a pity that this goal has not been achieved throughout my life.
The reason why Xu Changqing chose to go to Kuandian Mountains instead of entering Haizhou and forced Liaoyang and Shenyang to the front line was that he had thought carefully.
To put it bluntly, the model army still lacks mobility.
It was midsummer again, and it was difficult to preserve too many materials and grass, and the error tolerance rate was too low.
Once you enter the Liaoshen Plain and are blocked by the Qing army, you will not set up an ambush against the Qing army, but will be surrounded by the Qing army!
There are obviously no such many obstacles in Kuandian Mountains.
First of all, the terrain of Kuandian Mountains was complex, and the mobility of the Qing cavalry was greatly suppressed.
Furthermore, the Yalu River is wide and the water flows abundantly in midsummer, which can ensure that the model army's fleet enters the river to support it at any time.
Third, even if there are major changes in this battle and fail, according to the complex terrain of Kuandian Mountains, the model army can retreat into Goryeo and regroup.
Although Xu Changqing was still taking risks at this time, he had to leave a way out first!
In essence, this plan cannot be regarded as "using one's own strengths and attacking the enemy's weaknesses", but it weakened the advantages of the Qing army to the greatest extent and strengthened the shortcomings of the model army!
In addition, the Model Army also has hot air balloons, which can firmly suppress the Qing army in terms of vision.
Even if the Qing army could imitate the flowering bullet, they would obviously not have thought of developing a killer weapon like a hot air balloon for a while.
...
As night fell, it gradually became completely dark.
Many Han slaves have long been isolated.
