Relying on these ports as the core, the hard-working naturalized people are slowly expanding outward little by little, clearing out poisonous insects, developing mineral deposits, and building new farms.
But having said that, Xinghai Kingdom is not completely unconcerned about the situation in the Ming Kingdom to the north.
According to reports from Nanming ambushing the Qing court, after a series of previous defeats, the Qing court was furious and was preparing to send Duduo as its commander to conquer Nanming and Xinghai Kingdom, which had frequently offended the Qing court!
It should be said that Duduo had a tendency to shock the emperor with his outstanding achievements. Therefore, after the Qing army temporarily turned to defense due to lack of food and grass, Duduo was recruited back in the name of returning home in triumph.
According to the historical process of this plane, Duduo had no power to lead troops until his death.
This is not surprising. Who dares to give back military power to a general like this?
The big guys in the Qing court also need to learn history.
Do you know the allusion of Zhao Kuangyin wearing a yellow robe?
Let’s not mention whether Zhao Kuangyin was really forced to do anything or he was just pretending, but as a member of the royal family, the coach was leading an army outside. This was the beginning of the chaos!
As long as Duduo has a little bit of thought and turns around to send troops, then the emperor should be replaced.
But by this time, despite the fact that the Qing government occupied most of the Ming Dynasty, the situation was actually not good. In addition, the entire coastal area was under the threat of the enemy fleet. Not many people dared to be the commander-in-chief of such a battle.
In the end, a group of bigwigs from the Qing court pushed Duduo out after pushing him around.
However, in history, this man suffered from smallpox in 1649.
I don’t know whether it was due to the butterfly effect of traveling through the crowd or some other situation. Dorgon died and Shunzhi ascended the throne early. However, Duduo has not died yet, so he can be pushed back to serve as the commander-in-chief and lead the Qing army.
This time Duduo sent troops as the emperor's uncle with great momentum. Perhaps he was worried that his footing would not be stable and he might be beaten back to his hometown in the blink of an eye. At this time, the banner leaders of the Eight Banners did not hesitate and handed over their troops and horses to Duduo one after another.
.
Therefore, when Duduo left the capital, there were 30,000 regular soldiers of the Eight Banners alone, and more than 50,000 auxiliary soldiers!
In other words, the Eight Banners alone produced 80,000 troops, of which 30,000 were the direct descendants of the Eight Banners and 50,000 were the servants of the Eight Banners.
In addition, there were about 80,000 Han Eight Banners, as well as the surrender troops of the former Ming Dynasty gathered along the way after leaving Beijing. By the time the army marched to Jiang Shu Nanjing, the total number had reached 380,000.
I have to say that after the number of people increased, it was still very scary.
The mighty Qing army entered Zhejiang in large numbers, frightening the rebels who had frequently attacked the Qing army and fled into the ravine.
No way, although the Xianggua Lei is indeed powerful, the rebels don't believe it if they want to use it against the invincible Eight Banners soldiers.
Well, actually, in the minds of the rebels, the armies under the Qing court were classified.
The most powerful ones are the Eight Banners soldiers, followed by the early Han Eight Banners like Geng Jingzhong, the third ones are the troops who surrendered after entering the Pass, and the last thing is the Qing army transformed from those bandits and robbers.
I have to say that these rebels saw things relatively accurately.
However, after Duduo led his army into Zhejiang and arrived at Hangzhou, he set up a large camp and dispatched various troops to attack and regain control of Zhejiang.
This Duduo is worthy of being a veteran of war, and he did not take a single breath to smash his hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses directly towards Zhoushan Island.
We sent troops and horses all the way to Hu Nan and to Hu Jian to stabilize the somewhat unstable front line.
After that, they went all the way to Ningbo to test the Xinghai Kun bandits on Zhoushan Island.
And the soldiers and horses along the way were defeated by Jiangxi and almost ordered to arrest Belek Dehun back to the capital.
The reason why Duduo chose him instead of others was because the other party had fought several battles with the Xinghai people. Although they were defeated, they were still stronger than the generals he brought out from the capital.
A general like Duduo will not directly behead his subordinates because they have suffered a defeat. He will give the opponent a chance.
Of course, if you are given the opportunity and problems still arise, then don’t blame him for being ruthless.
It is precisely because of this that Belekdhun, who once again led the army, appeared particularly active, but also very cautious.
After leading 30,000 forwards to advance into Ningbo, Beileye Lekedhun immediately set up camp and sent a messenger, hoping to meet with the person in charge of the Xinghai Kingdom stationed in Zhoushan.
At this time, Zhoushan was under the control of Xinghai, and there were two people in charge.
One of them is Wan Ningxian, the captain of the First Detachment of the Northern Fleet, and the second is Fang Puyu, the commander of the Third Division of the First Army.
Both of them have just been promoted to senior colonel, and they still have to work hard if they want to be promoted to major general.
So after receiving the news of the Qing army's visit, the two men got together.
“The Qing army has sent people, what do you say?”
Fang Puyu, the commander of the Third Division, had a rather impatient personality and started shouting when they met.
“I think we can fight first and then talk about it, what do you think?”
Wearing a snow-white military uniform, Wan Ningxian’s words were quite inconsistent with his handsome appearance.
"Okay! But the Qing envoys still have to receive them first to see what they want to do."
Although Fang Puyu is impatient, she still does things well.
However, when the Qing envoy met with Fang Puyu, he was extremely arrogant. He always called you a traitor, but kept silent because if he didn't want to die without a burial place, he should quickly surrender to the court, and maybe even
Can be given a guerrilla official title.
After listening to the words of the Qing envoy, Fang Puyu almost pulled out the box gun from her waist and fired a shot at the opponent.
Do you really think of Xinghai Kingdom as a group of thieves?
But this is not surprising. After all, the Qing court did not know much about the Xinghai Kingdom. What they knew more about was the relatively sharp firearms of the Xinghai Kingdom.
Besides, the Qing Dynasty luckily took control of the Central Plains and has begun to expand. Under such circumstances, the enemies they are paying more attention to are Nanming, and even the Zheng family army is just a little flea in their eyes.
After all, they feel that they are destined to do so, and they are not worth mentioning as thieves or bandits.
This Qing envoy was originally a surrendered minister. Before surrendering, he felt that the Qing army was invincible. After joining the Qing army, he naturally felt possessed by a divine light and felt invincible.
In this case, how could he like these thieves?
In his words, if you don’t surrender, when the heavenly soldiers arrive, not a single piece of armor will be left behind!
Since the Qing envoys were like this, Fang Puyu had no intention of continuing the conversation.
Besides, they are not like the time-travelers in other novels who insist on reaching some kind of trade agreement with the Qing court to make money from the Qing court.
Xinghai Kingdom’s extremely powerful industrial capabilities are a supreme money-making machine.
