"Brother, my younger brother is incompetent and lost!" Li Dingguo returned to Longchangyi to apologize to Sun Kewang.
"Second brother, don't be angry. Tomorrow I will personally lead the troops to attack Zhazuo City and avenge you."
"No! The Ming army has sophisticated guns and artillery, which can be mounted on vehicles and move quickly. Those chariots serve as cannons in battle and as city guards in time, so they are very difficult to deal with. However, they have two shortcomings."
"Oh, second brother, speak quickly."
"First, gunpowder consumes a lot of money and is difficult to supply; second, it is suitable for fighting on flat ground, and movement in mountainous areas is inconvenient. The terrain of Longchangyi is rugged, which is beneficial to our army. Big brother might as well hide his troops in Longchangyi and ambush the Ming army."
"Haha! Everyone says that my second brother is brave in battle and is an 'enemy of ten thousand people'. In my opinion, he is not only an enemy of ten thousand people, but also a man of many talents. Let's do it like this."
"Brother, I have something to say, but I don't know whether to say it or not."
"My brothers, but it's okay to say it."
"My adoptive father asked us to return to the Ming Dynasty during his lifetime, and my brother Guan Jingjiang has a strong image of overseeing the country. Why don't you bring our brothers to join the Ming Dynasty, firstly to be loyal to the country, and secondly to be filial to the adoptive father?"
Sun Kewang became impatient when he heard this: "Second brother, how many times have I told you that I also want to be enlightened. But the King of Jingjiang looks down on us and is reluctant to even give us the title of Duke. We can't do it without fighting. Wait until I win.
This battle will definitely bring our brothers to justice. Okay?"
Li Dingguo tried to persuade him again, but Sun Kewang threw away his sleeves and left.
??
"Hey! This Sun Kewang keeps attacking Longchangyi and doesn't come to Zazuo City to fight alone. The terrain of Longchangyi is dangerous, so going to Longchangyi for a decisive battle is not conducive to our army. What should we do?" Zhu Hengjia asked the group
I asked about the plan.
Unexpectedly, the generals stared at each other and were at a loss to do anything.
Li Mingzhong thought for a while and said: "To supervise the country, why not our army attack Xifengsuo first, then attack Longkeng Division, occupy Wujiang Crossing, and cut off the enemy's retreat?"
"General Li, this is a good idea!" Zhu Hengjia was about to listen to Li Mingzhong, but suddenly he saw Zheng Feng pinching his chin again.
According to historical experience, as long as Zheng Zifang pinches his chin, it will definitely cause harm.
"What good idea does Zheng Qing have?"
"Supervising the country, General He Jiuyi of the Western Army is stationed at Xifeng Station. He has 30,000 troops under his command. The terrain is dangerous and difficult to attack. You might as well pretend to attack Xifeng Station."
"Pretend to attack Xifeng's place?"
"Go to the Xifeng post with great fanfare, and then return halfway. Once you leave, Sun Kewang will definitely think that Zazuo City is empty. He will definitely lead the main force to sneak attack on Zazuo City. When the time comes, you can lure him into a decisive battle in Zazuo City.
The purpose is achieved."
"Oh, Zheng Qing, you still have a lot of ideas!"
"Supervise the country, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"Oh, Zheng Qing, please speak quickly."
"He Jiuyi placed the main force in Xifengsuo, Dizhai Division, Kaizhou and Qingshan Division in the front. There are not many defenders in Yanglongkeng Division in the rear, leaving only three thousand soldiers. Why not send troops to sneak attack Yanglongkeng and control it?
Crossing the Wujiang River to cut off the retreat of the Western Army?"
"Zheng Qing, the dragon-raising pit is in the rear. How can I cross Kaizhou and Xifeng and sneak attack the dragon-raising pit?"
"The Supervisor has forgotten that there is Qingshui River, a tributary of Wujiang River, in this section. You send troops up the river to Guaixisi and sneak ashore. They surprise attack Yanglongkeng and control Wujiang Crossing. The Western Army becomes the turtle in the urn."
"Isn't the Qingshui River known as a natural hazard?"
"I have sent people to inquire about the water conditions. It is now the dry season, and the Qingshui River is not dangerous in the dry season."
??
"The Sichuan area has been in chaos for a long time, and the people's livelihood has been in decline. Since the last general was stationed in Xufu, the states and counties under his jurisdiction have only collected 48 shi of rice and 9 shi of coarse rice. The officers and soldiers are hungry and have slaughtered all the mules and horses. Please return to Baoning.
"Food".
Prince Heshuosu Hauge is reading a letter. This letter is written by his general, Ma Huabao, the commander-in-chief of the Syrian government. The letter mainly talks about the dilapidation of Sichuan and the dilemma of not being able to collect food.
After defeating Zhang Xianzhong, Hauge began his Sichuan strategy.
He ignored the remaining defeated generals chasing the Great Western Army and focused his attention on the remaining forces of the Ming Dynasty stationed throughout Sichuan.
Hauge read a lot of books and knew how to rule Han by Han. After capturing Hechuan, he immediately appointed Wang Zuntan, a surrendered general of the Ming Dynasty, as governor of Sichuan.
In the Ming Dynasty, Ma Gan, the governor of Sichuan, guarded the Neijiang River, and Hauge ordered Wang Zuntan to recruit Ma Gan to surrender. Ma Gan replied: "I am a minister, and I have no reason to surrender. The ancients said that ministers who enclose a border should die to enclose a border. This is the time when a certain person dies.
."
"Ma Gan has backbone!" Aixinjueluo Hauge likes men with backbone the most.
He praised Ma Gan a few words and immediately led his army to attack Neijiang. Ma Gan refused to surrender and died in the battle.
Then Hauge marched into Zunyi (which belonged to Sichuan in the Ming Dynasty).
After the Daxi Army crossed the Wujiang River and entered Guizhou, Wang Yingxiong, the governor of the Ming Dynasty and a great scholar, led the army and occupied Zunyi.
When he heard that Hauge was coming, Wang Yingxiong did not dare to fight and fled to Chishui Guards. In the Ming Dynasty, Sichuan General Soldier Jia Denglian and deputy general Tan Desheng simply surrendered to Hauge.
With the addition of the Jaden Alliance, Tan Desheng's 20,000 troops surrendered, which was originally a happy event, but Hauge was not happy.
Like Ma Huabao, he is running out of military rations and cannot feed 20,000 mouths.
??
"Come, General Jia, General Tan, I would like to propose a drink to the two generals."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Hauge made a toast, and the two generals did not dare to neglect and drank it all in one gulp.
"Are the two generals sincerely loyal to our Qing Dynasty?"
"The final general is willing to go through fire and water for the Qing Dynasty."
"Okay, okay! I want to borrow something from the two generals. Are the two generals willing to give it up?"
"What does the prince want to borrow?"
"The heads on the necks of the two generals".
Jia Denglian and Tan Desheng were shocked. Before they had time to stand up from the table, a group of elite Zhenglan Banner guards (formerly Baya soldiers) rushed towards the two of them with their knives and chopped them into pieces.
p>
After killing the two generals, Hauge suddenly surrounded their subordinates and killed them all.
After the killing, Hauge murmured to himself: "Two generals, don't blame me. I also know that you died unjustly. Who made me have no food in my hands? If the army has no food, it will be in chaos. Instead of waiting for you to cause chaos,
, it is better for me to strike first and be stronger."
How could a country as big as Sichuan have no food?
It was a war! First, Zhang Xianzhong fought with the Ming army, killing people in Sichuan three times out of ten stops. Then the Qing army entered Sichuan, and the Manchu men felt itchy for a while, so they killed three more people in three stops. Then,
The Ming army fought with the Qing army, and warlords fought within the Ming army. The people died in ten stops and two more.
After repeated beatings, only two Sichuan people were left out of ten. The fewer people there promoted the reproduction of wild animals. In some places, tigers descended from the mountains and their roars could be heard in the city.
Without the people, where would the food come from?
Without food, Aixinjueluo Hauge could do nothing no matter how powerful he was, so he had to retreat to Baoning (Langzhong, Sichuan) for food.
The Qing Dynasty's actual control area in Sichuan was only Baoning and a small area nearby.
The arrogant Eight Banners soldiers were defeated and given a full meal.
??
As soon as Hauge withdrew to Baoning, the land of Sichuan and Shu was abuzz with excitement! Various princes were vying for hegemony.
In order to compete for territory, you hit me, and I hit you. Hitting hurts, scolding means loving, and we are a lively family.
The major warlords include the following.
Yang Zhan, a native of Jiading (now Leshan), Sichuan, was a Jinshi in the twelfth year of Chongzhen and served as a general. His territory is in Jiading and Emei.
This man was regarded as a good person among the Sichuan warlords and treated the common people very well. In the midst of war and chaos, he paid great attention to restoring production.
Sow the seeds, let them choose the land and cultivate it, and those who are willing to join the army will join the army. All kinds of workers will be supported by their skills, and those who are lonely and helpless will be left behind."
Due to effective measures, Yang Zhan's control area became the only place in Sichuan that was self-sufficient at that time.
Wang Xiang, formerly a deputy general of the Ming Dynasty, was entrenched in the Jiangjin, Hezhou, Pengshui, and Qianjiang areas. After Hauge retreated, he occupied Zunyi.
This person is very cruel and is too cruel to the people!
In order to expand his power, he did not hesitate to exploit the remaining local people.
In his territory, if you want to survive, you have to pay money to buy a card to avoid death. If you have a card to avoid death, you live; if you don't have a card to avoid death, you kill. To raise cattle, you have to pay money to buy a cow ticket before you can raise it. What's even more outrageous
Yes, you have already bought a cattle ticket. After a while, we will send troops to rob your house. You have cattle and you are a rich man. If not, who can you rob? "In the beginning, each family was given a card to avoid death, and how much silver was needed.
Two; the next step is to give each cow a cow ticket and a certain number of silver. After a while, he leads the cows, plunders the people, digs out the grain, and burns the houses.
"Lei, the night is full of fury".
He did all kinds of evil and made a lot of money. If you have money, you will naturally have soldiers, and there are many soldiers. But the people hate him.
Yu Dahai, Li Zhanchun, was originally a general under Zeng Ying and worshiped Zeng Ying as his adoptive father. He stationed troops at Xipingba in Fuzhou (now Fuling) and controlled the three counties of Fuzhou, Changshou and Dianjiang.
Hou Yongxi, a former Ming army commander, was stationed in Yongning (now Xuyong).
Ma Yingzhao, the former commander of the Luzhou Guards in the Ming Dynasty, served as a guerrilla and guarded the Luzhou area.
This person is as good as Wang Xiang in terms of not doing anything evil.
He liked to travel from Luzhou to Fushun. Wherever he passed, he searched, killed, burned and looted. "Jiang'an, Naxi, Jiu Xing (Jiu Xingsi was in today's Huzhou City) and other places were ravaged."
Tan Wen, Tan Yi, and Tan Hong are known as the "Three Tans" without Yingyue. They were originally hereditary guards of Zhongzhou Guard, stationed in Zhongzhou (now Zhongxian), Wanxian, and Kuizhou (Fengjie).
p>
Yao, Huang tribes, known as the "Yao Huang Thirteen Families". They were originally a peasant uprising army, but later entangled with local officials and bandits, and turned into a nondescript armed force. They are active in northeastern Sichuan.
The ministries are not subordinate to each other, and the leaders include Yuan Tao, the king of fighting, Liu Weiming, the king of rebellion, Bai Jiaolong, the king of Zhentian, Yang Bingyin, the second sentry, Jing Keqin, the king of the Yellow Harrier, Zhang Xian, the neat king, etc.
Among these people, Yuan Tao is the most famous, and his nickname is also ruthless: King Zhengtian. He once led tens of thousands of people to station troops in Fu, claiming to submit to the Ming Dynasty. However, the looting continued as before, and the people of Fu were displaced.
But at this time, he couldn't stand up, and he had just been punished by Hauge. He was defeated and fled to the vicinity of Fuzhou. He fought a fierce civil war with the Fuzhou warlord Li Zhanchun.
In addition to warlords, Sichuan also has frontier officials.
One of the supervisors, Wang Yingxiong, a scholar of Dayuan Pavilion appointed by Emperor Hongguang, had just died of illness.
There is one governor, Fan Yiheng, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi appointed by Emperor Hongguang.
Magan, the governor of Sichuan, had just died in a bloody battle with the Qing army.
Historically, Emperor Yongli appointed one governor and five governors in Sichuan in order to win over the powerful factions from all over the country. Ten sheep and nine pastoralists made a mess. He sent his clan Zhu Rongfan to be governor of military affairs; he appointed Li Qiande, Yang Qiaoran, Jiang Erwen,
Zhan Tianyan and Fan Wenguang were governors of various places in Sichuan.
Zhu Hengjia decided not to make this mistake and continued to use Fan Yiheng appointed by Emperor Hongguang as the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi.
Who will succeed Ma Gan as governor of Sichuan who died heroically for his country?
Zhu Hengjia thought about it a lot, and his eyes fell on Chen Bangyan, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate who had obvious anti-corruption results and outstanding political achievements.
