Chapter 727(1/2)
Liu Liangchen obviously had water in this news, and there were still a lot of them.
It took more than ten or twenty hours to pass the news from Luzhou to Haicheng, even if it was exhausted and ran away to death.
But this is Liu Liangchen's cleverness.
In other words, it is the cleverness of the two brothers of the Liu family.
After the two brothers reached an agreement, it seemed that Liu Liangzuo was always in a passive state. It was Liu Liangchen who kept making suggestions, but if you think about it carefully, isn’t it that Liu Liangzuo was leading Liu Liangchen’s nose, and can Liu Liangchen feel his weight in it?
Veteran Youzi is a veteran Youzi!
No matter in any era, anyone who can reach a real high position will never have a good fortune!
Both brothers in the Liu family understood the principle of "dining while it's hot" and the cold stove was like daylily cold.
What was the Qing Dynasty most short of at this time?
It's no wonder it's a refreshing record!
So even though the two brothers still had many things in Luzhou City that were not handled completely, they released the news in advance.
If we come from the perspective of the nation, these two brothers are definitely unforgivable sinners of the Chinese nation.
But, if they come from the perspective of the times, they are undoubtedly smart people of the wise men...
...
The news of Luzhou's change of flag undoubtedly gave the Qing Dynasty a very critical dose of heart-warming agent.
In particular, Huai'an Prefecture was also surrounded by elite troops led by Abatai.
The Ming Dynasty's four major combat powers in Jiangbei have been shackled by them, and the most powerful Haicheng is also surrounded by the main force of the Qing Dynasty.
As for Liu Zeqing, who was hiding in his old nest in Cao County, he could almost be ignored.
It’s just that the Qing army has no time for the time being. Once they have time, they can destroy Liu Zeqing in minutes.
In this way, although there has not been good news from Ajige on the Denglai side, the Qing Dynasty won a "big victory" in Haicheng, and the south was so smooth, and the Qing Dynasty's strategic goals have been taken.
Dorgon then quickly launched a military discussion. How should the Qing Dynasty deal with itself under such circumstances?
Not long after, everyone reached an agreement to continue to increase troops to ensure the smooth progress of the war in the south, thereby consolidating the overall situation.
After all, no matter how strong the Model Army is, it will only be a few miles away. If it is more than ten miles away, it will be difficult. With the power of the Qing Dynasty, as long as the size of the camp is maintained, it will be enough to deal with the Model Army.
...
Dorgon originally thought that in the evening, the main force would go south again to avoid being discovered by the model army's sentry detectives and affecting the overall situation.
Ke Duoduo's monkey was anxious and started his move in the evening. Soon, the hot air balloon observers who were cruising in the sky by the model army discovered the trend and reported it to Xu Changqing as soon as possible.
Xu Changqing rarely took advantage of today's leisure time to make up for a nap, and came to check it out as soon as he got the news.
really.
In the distance, the Qing army units seemed to be pretending to be regular, but if you look closely, you won’t be too difficult to see signs of their troops.
At this time, Xu Changqing's confidant Zhang Long, who was on duty. He didn't care at first, but at this time he also noticed something was wrong. He frowned tightly and said softly: "Master, is it possible that there is a new change in the south? The Tartars are going to attack Jining and Qufu?"
Xu Changqing's heart was also 'stopped'.
Although Zhang Long’s words were a bit alarmist, they could not rule out this possibility!
Although the intelligence system and transmission channels of the Model Army were already very perfect at this time, they still did not have control over the land, and they were inferior to the Qing army in this regard.
Especially although yesterday's war report has been sent to Nanjing, it will take a long time to post it until at least tomorrow afternoon.
This time difference may not be much at ordinary times, but at this time, it is very likely to be fatal.
However, Xu Changqing quickly calmed down.
Qing army against Jining and Qufu
There is little possibility of a dead hand, at least at this stage.
This is not difficult to guess.
Thinking from the perspective of others, it is easy to find clues.
The Qing army suffered continuous failures, and what needs to be improved most at this time is morale and reputation.
Although Jining and Qufu are also good ways to improve morale and reputation, they are still worse than the cities in the Lianghuai area.
What's more, Jining and Qufu were both managed by Xu Changqing. Even if the main force of the Qing army went, they had to destroy the city.
By comparison, it is not difficult to make a decision as long as it is a normal person.
"Is it a puff? Is the sky falling?"
Xu Changqing kicked Zhang Long in the butt angrily.
"Forehead……"
Zhang Long also came to his senses and scratched his head and said, "Master General, letting the Tartars make such a mess in the south is not a solution. What must we do? Otherwise, we secretly increase our troops and slam the Ajige and make a big fuss."
After years of hardship, Zhang Long's growth has also been very rapid, and he soon found a solution.
With the current situation, it is unlikely that the Qing army will take the initiative to attack Haicheng again, and it is indeed a good idea to increase troops and deport Lai.
But after thinking for a while, Xu Changqing shook his head: "Don't worry, do our job first. Dalong, closely monitor the various movements of the Qing army. If there is any difference, you must report to me as soon as possible!"
"yes!"
Although Zhang Long could not keep up with Xu Changqing's ideas for the time being, the execution of the orders had already been engraved into his bones, and he was standing attentive.
Let Zhang Long go to the guard, Xu Changqing narrowed his eyes and looked at the Qing army battle formation in the distance, rubbing his nose hard.
The Qing Dynasty was really an indestructible Xiaoqiang. If you do this, you can't break through their sharpness!
But Xu Changqing understands it very well!
Now is definitely not the time to make decisions, because the information is far from symmetrical enough!
There was a joke in later generations saying: ‘Adults don’t need to make choices.’
If there is room for anything, Xu Changqing certainly doesn't want to make a choice, but at this time, it is obviously a bit unsatisfactory to greed.
Ten birds in the forest are far less than one bird in hand!
Since you don’t need to rush to make a decision, don’t make a decision!
Even if Jining and Qufu were broken, they would be patiently rebuilt in the future. As long as people could not pass the Haicheng line, Xu Changqing would not be considered a loss. Instead, the Qing army solved a lot of trouble for Xu Changqing!
...
"kill!"
"Haha, rush up and kill these dog Nikan!"
"Warriors, follow me. As long as the city is broken, women can play with their property..."
In the bloody twilight, Huai'an City is facing hell-like tests on all sides.
In the deep and shallow rhythm of advancement, as dusk fell, Abatai finally found out his true sharpness.
Fifty or sixty elite Niulu of each flag, together with various slaves, a total of 30,000 to 40,000 people launched a general attack on Huai'an City from all four times.
Even though Huang Degong's troops who were guarding the city had already expected this change of rhythm, they were still very uncomfortable when they really happened, and they were in a mess of collapse.
At the south gate of Huainan, where Huang Degong's temporary central army was located, Huang Degong, who was already in a state of trouble, was constantly receiving emergency reports. Either the north was almost unable to withstand it, or something went wrong on the west or the east.
Huang Degong was already a rare and powerful person among the various divisions of the Ming Dynasty, but at this time, he still couldn't hold on. He had ten big heads, so he could only subconsciously mobilize the reserve team and the civilians to take over.
Actually, this cannot be entirely blamed.
Even though he received Xu Changqing's warning in advance and the Qing army went south, Huai'an was not Huang Degong's nest. If you really count it, Luzhou was Huang Degong's nest. He has been there for many years and has a deep foundation in all aspects.
But that's how it is.
One of them
It is difficult to explain in words the various kinds of things.
After the capital was destroyed, all the troops in the south were in chaos, and the army was displaced everywhere, not much different from the bandits.
After the Nanjing court gradually stabilized, the cabinet bosses had already suffered enough losses from the military head and had a lot of thoughts, allowing Huang Degong and Liu Liangzuo to exchange positions without hesitation.
Originally, the cabinet wanted to touch Liu Zeqing, but Liu Zeqing was very treacherous and immediately mentioned Xu Changqing to the front and back of the horse. Xu Changqing did not hesitate.
This led to Liu Zeqing not spending much effort to defend his hometown in Cao County, but Huang Degong and Liu Liangzuo had a new foundation.
"Haha, rush up and kill these dogs Nikan!"
In the chaos, the brave white armor with yellow flags had already rushed to the south city, and then reached Huang Degong's nose and screamed excitedly.
At this time, under the leadership of Abatai, although he acted as the "cannon fodder" of the city, these true Manchus with the Yellow Flags at this time had no complaints, and they were even a little grateful to Abatai.
They all have experience in fighting the Model Army, and the bitterness is simply too numerous to describe. When they first attacked the city, they were all greeting Abatai's ancestors for the eighteen generations, but as they waited to the city, this kind of greeting had long disappeared.
This is the Ming army in their consciousness.
Firearms are similar to fire sticks. As long as the Qing Dynasty soldiers rushed in, they would be slaughtered in a mess, like pigs and dogs.
"Shishuai, no, the Tartars are coming, you can take a step back..."
