Chapter 753 The general trend of the world, can it be determined in a few days?(1/2)
Perhaps it was the coquettish temptation of Hong Niangzi. Later that day, Xu Changqing made the decision to deport the camp tomorrow morning. The somewhat lazy model army quickly began to be complicated, but then it became a regular pattern, as if it quickly woke up from hibernation.
Early the next morning, countless bright red figures stepped on the continuous surfing bridge, like flat ground, crossed the Dawen River, and continued to move closer to Qufu.
After crossing the river, Xu Changqing did not stay in the central army, but asked Hongniangzi and Zhao Zengjin and others to take charge of the central army. He went to the surrounding area to investigate the terrain.
At this time, the snow had stopped for four or five days, and it seemed that it would not fall again today, but the sky was still gloomy, making people feel no rays of sunshine.
The Dawen River behind him has already shown signs of freezing, but it is not too strong, almost thick, and cannot bear the weight of people.
The surrounding wilderness was still full of continuous white and covered with silver. Some of the rising sun had already melted a little, but in more areas, the snow not only did not melt, but also began to freeze into ice lumps.
I can't catch a handful of snow anymore, but I'm like ice, and I'll be filled with it.
The ground under the feet also showed signs of stiffness, but it was not serious. The obstacles of Mount Tai and Mount Kolai were not really cold.
After careful investigation for a whole morning, it was really fine. Even if there were some wild beasts, Xu Changqing had to read them carefully and judge how many days had they been.
At lunch time, when mud began to start to rise from where the model army's huge battle formation passed, Xu Changqing finally smiled at the corner of his mouth.
According to this situation, as long as there is no sudden change, the model army will arrive around Qufu in three or two days, and the condition will be just right!
...
After receiving the news that the Model Army finally pulled the camp from the Dawen River and quickly approached Qufu to the south, all the Qing army units were in full joy, which was even more lively than the New Year.
"Brother, the dog Nikan finally couldn't help it. Wow, we must seize this opportunity this time so that Xu Changqing, the dog Nikan, will not leave when he comes!"
Duoduo was excited and shook his arms and fists, feeling that he had not had such a happy time in his life. The resentment accumulated over the years seemed to be finally released.
Dorgon was also a little excited, as if he had seen that the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry quelled the Xu Changqing Rebellion as if he had already seen it. The whole world was like an unguarded girl, and Dorgon could get it with his help.
But because of Xu Changqing's suffering, Dorgon quickly suppressed his calm down, "Fifteenth, do you think Xu Changqing will come to Qufu or Jining? Or do you think that going to war in Qufu or Jining will be more beneficial to our Qing Dynasty?"
"this?"
Duoduo was stunned for a moment and looked at Dorgon speechlessly. Is there any difference between going to war in these two places? Are they all the same?
But looking at Dorgon's nervous look, especially the white silk on Dorgon's temples, gradually starting to sink in, Duoduo suddenly felt a little sad!
In the past few years, what has he, the powerful prince, been forced into by Xu Changqing...
If it were in those days, how could there be so much nonsense? The two of them had already ordered all their troops and destroyed them directly like heavenly soldiers descending to earth.
But now...
"Why……"
A deep sigh in his heart, Duoduo quickly cheered up and analyzed Dorgon carefully.
...
From a strategic perspective, the best war location for the Model Army at this time must be Jining.
Jining is surrounded by the Grand Canal, with Weishan Lake and many large and small rivers such as Sishui and Wushui. At this time, this will be frozen or not, which is most suitable for the model army's formation.
But that's how things in the world are.
Among the countless choices, you can't always choose the best one.
Xu Changqing and the main force of the Model Army have entered Ningyang. At this time, they are almost north of Qufu City, and are closer to Qufu.
If we have to go to Jining, Sishui and Wushui according to the established plan, it will no longer be a barrier for the Model Army to defend against the Qing army, but will also become a natural barrier for the Model Army.
This compact state of crossing the river is a lot of money even if the qualities of the model soldiers are employed.
Qufu may be a little bit off in the terrain, but it will be stuck to the rhythm of the Model Army.
The main force of the Qing army was around Jining at this time. If Xu Changqing stood close to Qufu, the main force of the Qing army would come from Jining.
It seems that more than a hundred miles is not far away.
But in this weather, the Qing army and the horses were not smaller than the model army, and it would take some effort.
This made the balance slightly more balanced.
In particular, Qufu has great cultural significance!
If you can get what you want in Qufu... this will definitely form a double effect!
...
October 14th.
The model army finally arrived in Sishui, north of Qufu.
At this time, the Qing army had almost determined the strategic goals of the Model Army and was quickly gathering towards Qufu, but they were still afraid of scaring the Model Army and were very cautious.
October fifteenth.
The weather is sunny, the sun is coming out, and the sun is good.
The main force of the Model Army successfully crossed the Si Shui, which had a strong water rush, and had entered the hinterland of Qufu.
On this land, traces left by the saints of that time are left everywhere, and countless beautiful and strange talks are circulating among the people.
Dorgon and the main forces of the Qing army had almost gathered around Qufu at this time, but they still maintained strong restraint and the scale of the whistle cavalry did not increase. It seemed that they wanted to use this method to paralyze the Model Army and let the Model Army continue to advance.
October 16.
The weather is sunny and the sun is still very good.
The world covered in silver for several days finally began to show signs of large-scale thawing. The white between heaven and earth finally decreased greatly, revealing its original color.
Xu Changqing and the main force of the Model Army were only thirty miles away from Qufu at this time. If they stood at a high place, they could vaguely see the outline of Qufu City.
At the beginning of the morning, the Qing army's whistle cavalry still did not increase, and maintained a very cautious attitude. The Model Army's vanguard had already contacted Qufu City at this time. Qufu City was full of joy, and was waiting to open the door to welcome the Model Army into the city.
However, at this moment, even Hong Madam noticed something was wrong, and frowned and said, "Changqing, is there something wrong with things? It's too smooth for us to go through the journey? Could it be that the Qing army wants to trap us in Qufu City? I remember that Qufu City should be quite abundant, right?"
Xu Changqing did not answer immediately, but turned over and took advantage of the height difference to look at the camp of the model army around him.
At this time, the men of all departments were busy packing up and preparing to set off.
For the Model Army, these thirty miles are within a half day of reach.
Even if the world has started to be muddy at this time, it will take at most one day, which makes many men full of expectations.
To put it bluntly, even the son of the Model Army was afraid of fighting with the Qing army in the wilderness. If he could enter the city, who would choose to fight with the Tartars in the wilderness outside?
Seeing that Xu Changqing didn't say anything, Hongniang pursed her red lips tightly and did not dare to ask Xu Changqing anymore. She also turned over and checked carefully.
Even though the Qing army repeatedly restrained the situation, even if they used their toes to think of Hong Niangzi, they knew that the moment they were about to break out was not far away!
Perhaps in the next moment, the main force of the Qing army was about to appear!
After watching for a while, Hong Madam didn't notice anything unusual, and couldn't help but look at Xu Changqingying's erect face again.
Xu Changqing's expression was as quiet as water, without any fluctuations, but deep
There was obviously a trace of ferociousness in his eyes.
It was a bit scary when I saw it suddenly.
Xu Changqing has been the leader for a long time, and this power is not concealed.
But at this time, Xu Changqing's fierce and innocent appearance was much more at ease in Hong Niang's eyes.
This man can always give people the most stable sense of security.
But after being down-to-earth, Hong Madam felt an indescribable feeling of distress...
God is pitiful.
At this time, the entire Haicheng, Jiangbei, the entire Ming Dynasty, countless people, and everyone's fate was almost carried on Xu Changqing's shoulders!
God knows how much he has undertaken...
"call."
At this time, Xu Changqing suddenly let out a long breath, the complexity in his eyes disappeared, and he looked forward coldly and said, "Transfer our military orders and the whole army will advance!"
"The commander has an order, and each unit will be deported!
"The general has an order, and the troops will be dispatched..."
As Xu Changqing's order was quickly passed on, the already huge model army battle formation quickly became even bigger, and continued to move forward under the command of various flags and drumbeats.
Xu Changqing finally had time to talk to Hong Niang, but he had no expression and said coldly: "Sister Hong, prepare. No accident, before noon, the main force of the Qing army will appear!"
"this……"
The Hongniang was clever and instantly understood what Xu Changqing meant, and her beautiful eyes suddenly became cold: "Don't worry, handsome man, go and prepare immediately!"
...
"Brother, I'm moving, I'm moving, hahahahahaha, they'll go seven or eight miles ahead and then they'll reach the Koizumi Tou Village. We can finish it!"
The model army had just begun to advance. Duoduo, who was waiting in the dense forest of a hill with a small hill more than twenty miles to the west, received the news and came to inform Dorgon in a hurry.
"What's the panic? Is the sky falling?"
At this time, Dorgon seemed to have regained his normal majesty and calmness, and was meticulous.
"Forehead."
