Eight hundred and twentieth eight chapters drink the Yangtze River water
Looking at the river from afar, Zhou Shixiang didn't mind at all what his extremely vulgar mobilization would make the world feel like he, the King of Qi. He only knew that his mission in this era was to revenge, to fuck the Tartars, to fuck them hard!
So what about the great general, so what about the king of Qi? I, Zhou Shixiang, are an ordinary person in my previous life, and in this life, too!
If you are a person, you will have feelings, hatred, and you will even scold and fuck him!
Zhou Shixiang had enough of dealing with the great Confucian officials and gentry in the Nanjing officialdom with hypocrisy. Only in the army and in front of his subordinates who fought with him could he feel real and that he felt that he was a flesh-and-blood person.
Sometimes, Zhou Shixiang really wants to laugh at himself as a scholar. This "scholar" makes many people think that he is a polite scholar, but they don't know that he is an Avenger who can drink human blood and treat human life as much as grass.
This is a chaotic era, a dark era when the Han people were almost extinct. Benevolence, righteousness, morality, hypocrisy and kindness, and civilization and etiquette. All you need is a bloody sword and the spirit of resistance. "Fuck the Tartars, fuck you" is the best description of this spirit of resistance, and it is also the resonance of all the Han men who are brave enough to fight in this era.
The decisive battle between the Yangtze River was Zhou Shixiang's careful decision. He had no other choice. The Jiangbei camp existed for one day, so he would be restrained for another day. In the south of the Yangtze River, a sharp sword was always hung above Nanjing. This was a military consideration. On the political level, the Qing army in Jiangbei ordered many gentry south of the Yangtze River to watch. The people were determined to be enlightened, but they were worried that the Qing army would fight again, which was quite a bit of a snake and a rat.
This can be seen from Qian Qianyi's contact with the gentry in Jiangnan during these days that a large number of gentry who had secretly supported the anti-Qing and restoration of the Ming Dynasty were reserved for the newly established Dingwu regime in Nanjing. It was not what Qian Qianyi said to Zhou Shixiang at the beginning that as long as the King of Tang ascended the throne, all places would respond, and scholars and scholars rushed to reappear, reviving the prosperous era. In fact, only a few gentry who came to Nanjing to congratulate the King of Tang on the ascension of the throne, most of them were still staying in the countryside to watch, among which a large number of former Ming officials were.
Zhou Shixiang despised and disdained them in his bones and faced them, but now he needed their support because he had to be ruthless. He agreed with Zhang Changgeng's words, that is, the gentry in Jiangnan was truly backbone and brave, who died fifteen years ago. The remaining so-called anti-Qing patriots were mostly speculative people, and they were not just for self-interest, not for justice, nor for the defense of the Chinese and foreigners. The official document Jiang Guozhu gave to Lang Tingzuo about the "resolution case" is the best footnote that Zhang Changgeng said.
Although the Tang King has ascended the throne, the Taiping Army's rule in the Jiangnan prefectures has not yet been solid, and the integration of money, grain and resources has not been started. It can be said that most of the resources in Jiangnan are still in the hands of those gentry. If they want to take these resources from them, Zhou Shixiang will inevitably implement Guangdong's policies. Once these policies are implemented, these gentry who have now nominally become the natural enemies of the Taiping Army. In the words of the previous life, there were individuals who betrayed the class, but no class who betrayed the class. Zhou Shixiang did not expect a group of landlords to take the initiative to stand up and "attack the tyrants and divide the land" and lead the villagers to destroy the privileges they have.
Using a knife was Zhou Shixiang's only choice. Zhang Changgeng offered a wonderful method, which was to launch the "Tonglu Case" to attack the gentry in Jiangnan. However, the premise of this case was that the Taiping Army had to solve the Jiangbei camp of the Qing army in Yangzhou, otherwise, the case would not be possible. If we start suppressing the gentry now, it would be to dig a grave and shake the Dingwu regime that had just been established for a few days. If the gentry in Jiangnan stood up to oppose the Taiping Army, then there would be smoke everywhere, and the rear was in chaos, and the only one who benefited from it was the Qing Dynasty.
If the Qing army in Jiangbei was solved, the sword would be invincible.
The righteous and righteous heart has never been what people want, and what people want is nothing more than a big fuck. Manzhou seizes the world with a butcher knife and wins the hearts of people with a butcher knife. This heart is the heart of a gentry. Whether it is the Ming or Qing, the idea of ordinary people has never been the hearts of the people seen by the court. However, the hearts of gentry are the most shaken and selfish. Whoever sharpens the sword will listen to whom they will listen.
Crossing the river and having a decisive battle with Fulin's children, even if the victory or defeat is only 50% or 50%, Zhou Shixiang has to fight and fight. Only by defeating Fulin can he do what he wants, and those people can fully know that there will be no Qing Dynasty from now on, only the Ming Dynasty! At that time, they will know how to choose.
Crossing the river is an attitude, an oath, and an edict to the world that Dingwu regime was not the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Tang Dynasty was not Zhao Gou, and Zhou Shixiang would never be Yue Fei, he would be Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, and would be the first person to restore the north.
“Go on the boat!”
With the order of Zhou Shi, the flag bearers pulled out the military flags erected on both sides of the wharf, then raised them high, and struted their heads up to the bridge board.
On the dock, hundreds of warships were densely lined up, with sails everywhere. Teams of soldiers walked from the boards to the warships like countless streams.
"Wan Sheng!"
Tens of thousands of soldiers called in unison.
Thousands of sails compete and hundreds of boats compete, and the vast river presents a magnificent scene.
The fleet's target was Zhenjiang, where the army would meet with the first town stationed in Zhenjiang, and then launch an attack on the Guazhou Water Camp on the north bank, and then fight a decisive battle with the Qing army.
Information from the Military Information Department showed that the Qing army's Jiangbei camp had less than 100,000 soldiers, including more than 30,000 Manchu and Mongolian cavalry, while the Taiping army had less than 5,000 cavalry and more than 60,000 infantry.
The strength of the enemy and us is very different. This is why most of the generals did not agree to crossing the river and fought to the decisive battle during the Japanese military discussion, and suggested defending the river and dragging down the Qing army. Yu Shizhong and other generals combined with Doni's abandonment of Guizhou and returned north, analyzing that Wu Sangui would change at any time, believing that there was no need to rush to attack north. Perhaps Wu Sangui would help the Taiping Army to force Shunzhi to withdraw his troops.
However, Zhou Shixiang never put his fate into the hands of others. Whether Wu Sangui would rebel, whether he would enter Sichuan to attack Shaanxi, and force Shunzhi to return troops, these are unknowns. What he wanted was to do was to defeat Shunzhi himself, rather than wait for others to help him.
Looking at the railings, the river and sky are in the distance, whether it is warships or people, they are so small on this big river.
"Master, there seems to be someone on the shore!"
Military officer Guo Xiong suddenly handed the Qianlijing to Zhou Shixiang's hand, and Zhou Shixiang took the Qianlijing and looked at the dock.
In the camera, a carriage is parked on the dock.
In front of the car, a beautiful young woman was looking here.
Zhou Shixiang was stunned because he seemed to have seen this woman somewhere.
On the shore, Changle stared blankly at the vague fleet that was leaving. Although she didn't know which boat Zhou Shixiang was on, she knew that he must be there.
