Chapter five hundred and twentieth eight breaking the roots of the Qing Empire
Guizhou, Yixing Prefecture.
Dorgon wiped the blood stains on his face, his face solemn.
Opposite him, Li Ji held his injured shoulder and showed the same expression.
In the battle of Yixing City, he saw the elite strength of the Qing army.
As the most powerful army of the Qing Empire, the Zhengbai Banner. Under the leadership of Dorgon who was not afraid of death, they fought a decisive battle with Long Wujun, the fierce warrior of the Tang Dynasty.
The military spirit of Zhengbai Banner is the tiger, while the military spirit of Long Wujun, the fierce soldier of the Tang Dynasty, is the dragon.
Originally, the tiger was weaker than the dragon.
However, Dorgon personally supervised the battle, and even though he suffered heavy casualties, the Zhengbai Banner soldiers did not retreat.
The three special legions of the Tang Empire.
Yulin, Longwu, Shenwu.
The Yulin Army is Li Shimin's bodyguard and is the most powerful.
But the Shenwu Army commanded by Li Jing and the Longwu Army commanded by Li Ji are not weak either.
If faced with ordinary soldiers, they can fight one against ten.
Only this time, the Longwu Army faced Dorgon's Zhengbai Banner, and it was another siege operation.
When the military morale has not dissipated, it is indeed difficult for the two to decide the winner at once.
At this time, Gao Shilian said: "General, let's wait for General Li Jing to come over!"
At this time, in Yixing City, there were not only the Zhengbai Banners under Dorgon, but also hundreds of thousands of other miscellaneous soldiers.
And they themselves had no reinforcements behind them.
Xue Rengui, who was in the Song Empire, was blocked by Yue Fei at this time.
Even in a recent war, Yue Fei pushed back hundreds of miles.
Although Xue Rengui can also be called a famous general and the god of war, Yue Fei's reputation is still higher than that of his Xue Rengui.
"There is still a chance."
Li Ji did not admit defeat.
The war has been going on for more than half a month, and although the two sides have always been evenly matched.
But the enemy's casualties were far greater than those of his Long Wu army.
Although this was a siege, every two Longwu Army soldiers could replace three Qing Empire Zhengbai Banner soldiers.
The casualty ratio is 1:1.5, it is another siege operation.
So in terms of advantage and victory, he, Li Ji, is better.
When fighting between special arms, the advantage of the strong in the ghost and god realm is actually not that great.
For example, the military spirit tiger condensed by the Zhengbai Banner, and the military spirit dragon condensed by the Longwu Army. The strength of these two military spirits is comparable to that of ghosts and gods.
When the enemy's military soul cannot be destroyed, even a strong man in the ghost and god realm cannot defeat the city with one blow.
A full blow? That would only allow the hostile ghost and god realm experts to find an opportunity.
"In that case."
Gao Shilian said: "Let's take advantage of the darkness tonight and attack again."
The high-intensity fighting for more than half a month was a great torture for both sides.
Now, it depends on who can persist to the end.
"Can!"
Li Ji nodded.
As long as the opponent doesn't come with special soldiers of the same level as Zhengbaiqi, he has nothing to fear if some miscellaneous fish soldiers come.
And now, the Qing Empire actually doesn't have that many soldiers coming over.
Although Emperor Kangxi personally led the expedition.
But Zhu Wen, Xiao Yan, and Fu Jian immediately hugged each other tightly.
The three powerful men in the Shenmen realm, especially Fu Jian, are still in the back realm of the Shenmen realm.
Although Kangxi had the strength of the first stage of Shentai, he could not kill three people at once.
In fact, this also confirms what Cheng Mu said.
The strength boosted by national luck is actually false.
This kind of shrine is not as good as a real shrine.
Therefore, Emperor Kangxi still needed to spend some time and energy to destroy these three people.
At this time, Sichuan Province.
Although Li Jing led the army, they pushed all the way to Jiading Prefecture.
However, the cooperation between Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang still blocked him here.
But it was different from the bloody battle on Li Ji's side.
On the Jiading Prefecture side, both sides fought with great restraint.
Although the Shenwu Army under Li Jing was also a special force, the Hunan Army under Zeng Guofan was also the elite among the elite.
After both sides suffered a certain amount of casualties, everyone became rational.
I can't help it, I feel so bad.
For Li Jing, there were only two soldiers from the Tang Empire who entered the territory of the Qing Empire.
His own Shenwu Army and Li Ji's Longwu Army.
There are no reinforcements behind them.
Every time a soldier of the Shenwu Army dies, Li Jing's strength will weaken by one point.
For Zeng Guofan, the Hunan Army was his direct line of troops and a private army built by him.
Although he serves his country loyally, he doesn't want all his elite men to be lost here.
In the Qing Empire, only those with soldiers had the right to speak!
At this time, in Jiading City.
Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang were organizing a pre-war meeting.
Dorgon has already sent word that in Yixing City, Zhengbai Banner has successfully dragged Li Ji's Longwu Army there.
And Dorgon's request was to let Zeng Guopan and others drag Li Jing to death in Jiading Mansion.
After their emperor has dealt with the three wandering forces, they can launch a counterattack.
"I will go call the formation tomorrow!"
Obai has a hot temper!
As the most powerful being in the army at present, he is the main force in the battle in the past few days in the middle realm of Shenmen.
This made Li Jing very afraid.
Although Li Jing is both in the middle realm of Shenmen.
But what he was good at was leading troops in combat, and he couldn't beat Oboi in single combat.
"Then thank you General Aobai for your hard work!"
Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang looked at each other, and both nodded with great satisfaction.
It would be hard for Li Jing to have a reckless man like Ao Bai around.
They don't need to confront Li Jing head-on. Anyway, they just stay the same to cope with all changes. They stick to the city and don't care what Li Jing wants to do.
In addition, Jiading Prefecture is the gathering place of three rivers.
Just the artillery on the giant ships on the river can also cause certain casualties to the Shenwu Army.
Although the Tang Empire also had warships.
However, the warships of the Tang Empire were still slightly smaller than those of the Qing Empire.
More importantly, there were no cannons on the warships of the Tang Empire.
On ancient ships, they usually carried rackets or catapults.
...
Cheng Mu rested in Manzhouli City for five full days.
During these five days, he did not wait for reinforcements from the Qing Empire.
As if they had forgotten the city of Manzhouli, the Qing Empire did not send any troops over.
"What's going on?"
Cheng Mu asked in surprise.
Could it be that the Qing Empire was so generous that it gave Manchuria to itself?
This is really outrageous.
Taking possession of Manchuria was equivalent to completely cutting off the connection between the Qing Empire and the barbarian lands.
Did the Qing Empire give up on the huge barbarian land and the fertile Nerchinsk?
The most important point.
As long as he strangles Manzhouli, the only way from the Qing Empire to his Apocalypse Kingdom will be Kyaktu.
And now, the Divine Sword Army led by Yi Sword has probably occupied that place.
In order to ensure the smooth advancement of the Divine Sword Army, Qin Ning and Ye Xuan followed Cheng Mu's order and followed the army.
The current Shenjian Army is not only powerful in itself, but also makes up for the shortcomings of not having the most powerful person.
When the most powerful people of the Qing Empire do not take action, no one can stop the advance of the Divine Sword Army.
Although other countries will also form armies composed entirely of rangers.
However, the Divine Sword Army under Cheng Mu was formed first and has already gone through many battles.
Other newly formed ranger armies must first pass the first level to stabilize their military morale.
Although the Rangers are very powerful, 90% of them are just flowers in the greenhouse.
When they have ten lives, some people can still waste it fearlessly.
But now if you die in battle and are reborn, everything will be cleared.
The vast majority of people are unwilling to go to the battlefield.
Therefore, the newly created ranger army still has to go through several battles to screen out qualified soldiers.
Only then can its true power be unleashed.
After the new ranger army is successfully formed, the Divine Sword Army under Cheng Mu has experienced many battles, and its strength and experience will be improved to a higher level.
Therefore, the Divine Sword Army under Cheng Mu will always be ahead of other ranger armies.
Just after Cheng Mu raised the question, there was a report from the Hidden Dragon Assassin:
"Your Majesty, the Qing Empire's army is gathering at this time."
There is no way, Manzhouli is too far away.
The distance from the capital to Manzhouli is two thousand kilometers, and within the distance of more than two thousand kilometers, there are only a dozen cities.
Moreover, most of these dozen or so cities are gathered in the capital section.
If the Qing Empire wanted to mobilize troops, it could only mobilize troops from large cities such as Harbin and Tongliao.
"Then let's wait while we walk."
Cheng Mu nodded.
He had received a map of the entire Qing Empire.
At this point he has two choices.
Go east to Hulunbuyer City, which is a small city with a population of 300,000.
Either go southwest and capture the Zhongqian Banner of the Chechen Khan tribe under the Qing Empire.
The advantages and disadvantages of the two lie in.
Hulunbuyer is a small city with not many supplies, but not far from it is Umuke City.
Although Zhongqian Banner is large and rich in materials, there are thousands of kilometers of no-man's land after leaving Zhongqian Banner.
From Zhongqian Banner to Erenhot, it is more than a thousand kilometers.
The supply of more than a thousand kilometers will be a very serious problem.
"Your Majesty, Kong Ming has a plan."
At this time, Zhuge Liang said: "Why don't we cut off the roots of the Qing Empire first?"
If the roots of the Qing Empire are cut off, the strength of the Qing Empire will be greatly reduced.
"You mean, first occupy the three eastern provinces of the Qing Empire?"
Cheng Mu suddenly woke up.
He quickly opened the map.
From Manzhouli to Hulunbuyer, to Umuk, and then to Qiqihar.
"Then we will conquer Harbin, Changchun, Tongliao, Shenyang... and conquer Shuntian Prefecture of the Qing Empire in one fell swoop!"
Cheng Mu clenched his fists.
Shenyang is Shengjing, also known as Shuntian Mansion, which was the place of Longxing in the Qing Empire.
When Nurhachi's Thirteen Armors were launched, they moved their capital here after conquering Liaodong.
Later, after the Qing Empire unified the world, the capital was moved to the capital.
But here, Shengjing is still the capital of the Qing Empire.
If you capture this place, you will not only cut off the connection between the Qing Empire and the three eastern provinces, but also deal a huge blow to the Qing Empire.
It's like digging someone's ancestral grave yourself.
"Your Majesty is a great talent."
Zhuge Liang couldn't help but praise him.
He had thought of this strategy a long time ago, but had never put it forward.
But now he gave a little reminder, and Cheng Mu understood it immediately.
