Chapter 174 Enter BJ City and have a good time!
??a6??.??{??g(??s?????????????????76nm?(t?????????????? What Li Benying shouted was very different from what Li Laiheng thought.
Dang Shousu and the others obviously meant to fly solo if they were winged.
If the camp alone took down the capital of Beijing, it would be bad, and these old generals really fantasized about being like the King of Chuang that year, and embraced Li Laiheng to ascend the throne of Dashun.
Indeed, Dang Shousu and Li Benying were not wrong. The world was indeed their old camp twenty years ago. If the King of Chuang was not defeated in the battle, I would probably be the old generals who were honored and honored in the Dashun Dynasty and enjoyed their glory and wealth.
The king of the rebellion has no son, only Li Guo is the nephew, and Li Guo is only Li Laiheng has no son. If he has no biological child, maybe Li Laiheng, the little tiger, could really become the third emperor of the Dashun Dynasty.
However, these are just fantasies, and they are unrealistic fantasies that these old players feel that their "wings" are hardened.
The glory of Dashun has long disappeared, and the majesty of the rebel army has long dispersed with the wind.
Li Laiheng knew very well that since his adoptive father accepted the title of Emperor Longwu, the camp was no longer a camp, but a loyal camp of the Ming Dynasty. Li Laiheng is not the royal family of the Dashun Dynasty, but a king of the Ming Dynasty.
Drink water and remember the source. If there is no Taiping Army, there will be no today's loyal camp, and there will be no today's Yongcheng Conference.
Li Laiheng was not a person who had forgotten his roots, and he had no ambition to restore the glory of "Dashun". His fundamental intention of going north was not to regain the world as Dang Shousu and others said, but just wanted to find a way out for these uncles.
For example, today's trend is called two points, one Ming and one Qing; it is actually three points, one full and one week and one Wu; there are several subdivisions below the third, and the Zhongzhen Camp, which is mainly based on the camp, obviously accounts for more than half. It can even be said that after Zheng Sen's death, Zhongzhen Camp was already the fourth powerful faction outside of Man, Zhou and Wu.
Compared with King Li Dingguo of Jin, King Li Laiheng obviously lacks prestige, lack of qualifications, and even less fame. But now, King Jin is outside the border, King Shun is in the heart of the Central Plains and has steadily controlled the land of a province. The Zhongzhen Camp with more than 100,000 troops is of great importance to the current situation. No matter which side the Zhongzhen Camp completely falls to, it will be a disastrous consequence for the other side.
However, Li Laiheng was wary of Wu Sangui and had no intention of cooperating with the other party. Moreover, there was a bloody hatred between Zhongzhen Camp and Wu Sangui. Whether it was a piece of stone back then or in the future, countless soldiers of the rebel army fell under Wu Sangui's knife. Therefore, even if Li Laiheng was willing to turn to Wu Sangui, most of the old rebel generals would not be willing.
For Zhou Shixiang and Taiping Army, Zhongzhen Camp is currently maintaining a military allies with the other party, or to be precise, cooperation or non-confrontation. Any official documents given to Zhongzhen Camp by Jiangnan were forwarded through the name of the Dingwu court and the Ministry of War, rather than in the name of Zhou Shixiang's King of Qi and the Grand Governor of the Five Armies. Li Laiheng's memorials to Nandu were also submitted directly to Emperor Dingwu, and then he handed over to the cabinet to the Ministry of War and then to the Qi Palace. The contact between the two sides seemed very complicated, but it was the most firm expression of both sides' expression of their attitudes and positions.
In this way, Zhongzhen Camp obtained an independent territory, and the appointment and removal of money, grain, personnel and personnel were independent, and were not threatened by Zhou Shixiang. In the court, there was also a cabinet minister Hong Yuao "spokes out" for them. Compared with Jin Xia, Zhongzhen Camp was not happy. But similarly, it was precisely because of the "independence" nature of Zhongzhen Camp that Zhou Shixiang could not provide them with a large amount of money, grain and equipment unconditionally and free, and some military operations of the Taiping Army could not be reported to Zhongzhen Camp in all matters. For example, the Zhongzhen Camp wanted to seize Luzhou in the previous period, and he had a conflict with the Taiping Army. Before this, Li Laiheng had no idea what the other party had arranged in Luzhou. If the other party had informed him in advance, Li Laiheng would not have bumped into it like a headless fly.
In addition to the rescue of Zhongzhen Camp from Kuidong, Zhou Shi respected them and wanted to save these great men who insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty and give them a good destination in the future. At that time, Zhou Shi explained this move to Duke Xiang of Song, which was "inducing disaster to the north."
Zhongzhen Camp is a pack of wolves. Those who can persist until now are the most elite backbone of the rebel army. In Kuidong, they are controlled by the money and grain territories and do nothing. But once they are released from the dead land of Kuidong, it will undoubtedly be like digging up the upstream embankment, floods rage down and rushing straight to the Qing Dynasty.
Facts proved Zhou Shixiang's judgment that after the Zhongzhen Camp came out of Kuidong, it soon swept Hubei, forcing Zhang Changgeng, the then governor of Huguang of the Qing Dynasty, to hide in Wuchang. The Zhongzhen Camp, which occupied Hubei, quickly attracted the attention of the Qing court, and directly or indirectly attracted the firepower of the Qing court for the Taiping Army in Guangxi, reducing the pressure of the Taiping Army, and allowing the Taiping Army to win the final victory of the Guangxi Battle.
However, Zhou Shixiang did not expect that although the old generals had the surname Ming, they were still Shun in their bones. After they gained "freedom", they immediately became familiar with the bandits of their old careers.
In Luoding, in order to strengthen himself, Zhou Shixiang had to use bandits to strengthen himself. After gaining a foothold in Xiangshan, he immediately abandoned this approach and turned to the construction of a base. Those who are "apprentices" know that they should have a foothold to last for a long time, but the "masters" have not changed for more than 20 years, which shocked the "apprentices". When he knew that the whole province of Hubei was very harmful to the Zhongzhen Camp, Zhou Shixiang regretted whether his original decision was correct. However, the situation was already done, and he could no longer stop the Zhongzhen Camp's "strengthen".
Zhou Shixiang once carefully compared Zhongzhen Camp with the Daxi Army, and compared Li Laiheng, Yuan Zongdi, Liu Tichun and other generals with Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, and Liu Wenxiu of the Daxi Army, and concluded that Dashun is far inferior to Daxi!
The Daxi Army led by Sun Kewang focused on the fundamentals, local governance construction, production restoration, military discipline constraints, and the training of its own officials. The two provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou under Sun Kewang's rule were mature every year and the people lived and worked in peace. It was precisely because of this that the two provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou could support the Daxi Army to go north to fight against the Qing Dynasty and achieve brilliant results. Sun Kewang even opened imperial examinations in Yunnan and recruited scholars, and all of them were the most outstanding politicians of this era. The Ming army, which was dominated by the Daxi Army, had strict military disciplines. Whether it was Sun Kewang's army or the Xifu soldiers of Li Dingguo, they were all real "benevolent and righteous troops". When Zhou Shixiang led the Taiping Army to Xiangshan, he also imitated the same slogans and military orders when Li Dingguo fought Guangdong, such as not being allowed to kill plowing oxen, destroying houses, and destroying fertile fields.
On the other hand, the Zhongzhen Camp, which was dominated by the Dashun Army, was really disappointing. Under the leadership of Sun Kewang and others, the Daxi Army turned into a real official army, but they were still bandits dressed in the clothes of the official army. To put it bluntly, the Zhongzhen Camp's destructive power in the eyes of Zhou Shixiang is no less than that of the Qing Dynasty. Although the Zhongzhen Camp did not do a large-scale massacre of the city, the consequences of holding the young and strong Lama everywhere were no less than those of the massacre of the city.
Zhou Shixiang did not blame Li Laiheng for being inferior to Sun Kewang or Li Dingguo, nor did Li Laiheng for not being able to restrain his old generals. Changing the habits that a group of people was deeply rooted and preserved, it was not possible to succeed by just a "little tiger". To minimize the destructive power of the Loyal Camp, Zhou Shixiang could take the method to control them in an area and prevent them from spreading.
It is easy to destroy a place, but it is too easy; it is difficult to restore a place, but it is even more difficult.
After decades of war, China's population has become pitifully small. Zhou Shi was frowning when the Taiping Army recovered the population. He didn't want the old generals of Zhongzhen Camp to turn the north upside down as they did twenty or thirty years ago.
Why is Zhongzhen Camp in eastern Henan and southern Henan unable to start the situation? It is because they are good at field battles but lack the strength and means of attack. What is the strongest method of the Taiping Army? It is undoubtedly the attack.
Zhou Shixiang had too many ways to help the Zhongzhen Camp capture the cities they regarded as "solid cities" from the front without any effort, but he never helped the Zhongzhen Camp any of the siege weapons, and even provided very little gunpowder.
Why is this because Zhou Shi is afraid of it.
He was afraid that one day in the future, he would suddenly find that the place where he passed was still there and the people were gone.
Under the instruction of Zhou Shixiang, Hunan Governor Zhao Sihai "assisted" the four words "surround the site and attack aid" in the four words "surround the site and attack aid". This method is actually a good means to eliminate the enemy's army, and it also just restrained the "building a tough camp and fighting a stupid war" strategy developed by the Qing Henan Governor Jia Hanfu. He used his field maneuverability to attack the enemy's places where he must rescue, thereby annihilation of the enemy's reinforcements.
However, this method has a fatal flaw, that is, the party that "surrounds the point and attacks the aid" must first survive and have enough food to support their strategy. The reality is that no matter which leader in the loyal camp, there is not enough food to support them. Therefore, this strategic intention is a bit like a bit of a trick, inappropriate, and often cannot work.
Neither they could surround or fight aid, the Zhongzhen Camp could not seize the Qing army food and grass through battle, nor could they develop and grow by breaking the city and plundering manpower and material resources. Their usual "bandits" behavior was destined to be in a mess in their controlled area, and it was impossible for them to provide them with a steady stream of money and food.
A penny stumped the hero.
When the Zhongzhen Camp, which had not been "seized" but was crazy about "recruiting troops and horses", reached the critical point of their own ability, they had to stop "expanding", and turned around to their own busy food and clothing problems. In this way, they naturally had to limit their mobility. On the contrary, many towns were naturally protected, and even if they were still under the control of the Qing army, they would not become "white land" like some places.
After Zhou Shixiang was preparing to deal with the Dutch red-haired ghost, he immediately dispatched the navy to the north to conquer Liaodong, cut off Ningjin, and cut off the retreat of the remaining eight banners of the Qing Dynasty, and completely resolved the "teratogenital" that had harmed the Ming Dynasty for fifty years, so that they would not have the chance to return to the Baishan and Black Water and rise again in the future.
This strategy is to solve all the old men who have lost their teeth and the little boys who have fallen into their cradles, leaving no one left behind.
This strategy was the final revenge of Zhou Shixiang for his parents, wife and children, and also for the hundreds of millions of compatriots who died since Jiashen. Before this, he could not tolerate anyone who destroyed his strategic intentions and "shocked the snake", thus allowing the Manzhou people to retreat from Beijing to the outside of the pass in advance, forcing the Taiping Army to invest a large number of troops outside the pass in the future to carry out long-term security wars and encirclement wars.
However, no one knew Zhou Shixiang’s idea, nor did he know that he had such great ambitions.
Li Laiheng didn't know either, so after repeated consideration, he decided to take Zhongzhen Camp north, one to find a way out for these uncles, the second to solve the food problems in the army, and the third to help the Taiping Army, who was temporarily unable to go north, and if his progress went smoothly, the Taiping Army could also take advantage of the situation to advance north.
Li Laiheng really wishes
When the King of Chuang entered the capital, it was smooth sailing. Almost all the Ming troops passed along the way were falling.
"Kill cattle and sheep, prepare wine and mud, open the city gate to welcome the King of Chuang. The King of Chuang will not pay food when he comes.
If you eat his mother, she will not eat enough, there will be a king who will break the way.
If you don’t work as a job or pay food, you will live a happy life.”
With the singing of this nursery rhyme, the rebel army finally entered the Beijing capital.
But after twenty years, Li Laiheng made the plan to enter Beijing again, but the situation was very different from that of twenty years ago.
First of all, there were heavy troops from the Qing army in Henan. Although Oboi and Wu Sangui were fighting to death, they could not let the more than 100,000 troops of Zhongzhen Camp go north from his nose. Secondly, Xuzhou had Qing army, Shandong, and northern Zhili, and Han army and Green Camp. Although most of the young and strong Manzhou in the capital were brought to Henan by Oboi, Zhongzhen Camp was really at the city, and the Qing court could gather some troops to fight to the death. With the support of the Beijing city, Zhongzhen Camp, which lacked the strength to attack, it would be as easy as the King of Chuang to enter Beijing.
In the end, could Wu Sangui let Zhongzhen Camp take Beijing before him? The fruits of his war with Oboi were handed over to Zhongzhen Camp? Zhou Shi went through a lot of hardships to defeat the Qing Dynasty, and now he is deploying a large net covering all the old and young Manzhou. Can he tolerate the people of Zhongzhen Camp to start a "snake"?
Li Laiheng obviously didn't think so much. What he was thinking now was that if he led Zhongzhen Camp north, Wu Sangui would not talk about him, Zhou Shixiang would definitely be grateful to him. Because he did not have the ambition to take Beijing for himself and call Emperor Dashun in the Forbidden City. He wanted to integrate Zhongzhen Camp and the 13th family of Yaohuang, as well as the Henan Tumen, and unite to fight more territory and get more food, so that the brothers no longer endure hunger, and also make him more confident in doing this King Shun.
Dang Shousu and Li Benying's shouting was to openly raise the banner of Dashun again, to break with the Ming Dynasty and the Taiping Army, Li Laiheng refused, and Liu Tichun and others were even more irresistible.
Li Laiheng rarely scolded Dang Shousu and Li Benying for being confused. The two old generals also realized that their words were too much and would cause a big disaster to Zhongzhen Camp, so they did not dare to say anything.
"Go into Beijing, everyone will have a happy time!"
Ta Tianbao thought of Hao Yaoqi and Wu Sangui's reciprocity, and thought that it would be better to have this battle with Xiao Laohu. If he is lucky, he will be happy in Beijing. If he is not lucky, he will be dead.
"Yes, because he is alive here without a human or a ghost, it is better to go and be rich!"
The loess and Kou Wu's eyes were red, and he was fighting Beijing. How powerful is it? Whether it succeeds or not, it is worth it to participate in this matter even if he dies.
Liu Tichun had already made this idea with Li Laiheng, and immediately stood up to agree with the matter. The leaders who attended the meeting were all called to conquer the North. The prestige of the Beijing City attracted the attention of the city. Some said that the Tartars piled up all the wealth they had stolen over the years in the Beijing City. If everyone took the Beijing City, they would all become rich people.
For wealth, for the mighty, for the killing of the Tartars, for the restoration of great ambitions.
Erlang was blown up in the temple, and he was yelling to kill the capital and fuck him. A few sober people saw everyone clamoring, thinking that there were so many people going there, even if they didn't succeed, they would probably return, so they were a little moved.
Seeing that everyone was not opposed, Li Laiheng struck while the iron was hot and asked Liu Tichun to mobilize before the war, where the leaders gathered, where they went north, where they contacted the point of contact, and who listened to the orders, and issued orders one by one. The leader who was ordered came forward to collect the sign, shouted loudly, and had high morale.
It was bustling at night, so I drank a big bowl of wine and ate meat again. Everyone drank and talked freely, all looking forward to a good day of going north. No one noticed that Wang Guangxing, the Duke of Jing, took the excuse of drinking too much and going out to pee, but secretly called his own soldiers and asked him to rush to the Taiping Army to report the news overnight.
Chapter completed!
