Chapter 114: Who's Fighting?
Zhu Cihong used the inspection of the Yongwei Battalion to let the commanders of each town know their strength, and asked them not to do anything that was out of the norm and make mistakes.
After inspecting the Yongwei Battalion, the generals returned to the Chinese army's big tent again, and when everyone saw the dragon flag fluttering outside the big tent again, the mood was completely different from before.
The imperial court is no longer as incompetent as it thought before, and now that it has the strength to kill itself, it is better to keep a low profile.
Zhu Cihong sat on the top, Xu Sheng stood beside him holding the Shang Fang sword in a yellow satin embroidered dragon cover, Shang Fang's sword is a symbol of imperial power, seeing the sword is like seeing the Son of Heaven, making people look at an invisible pressure.
Seeing that the generals of the general army were honest, Zhu Cihong stood up with a slight smile and said: "The slaves and thieves have invaded the territory, my Ming people have been miserable for a long time, the day before yesterday, our army broke Shunyi, Huairou, Miyun and other places, proving that the slaves and thieves are not invincible. ”
In the end, Zhu Cihong glanced at the generals in the tent and said bluntly: "Which general soldier dares to be the vanguard?" ”
The whole tent was terrible, and no one answered for a while, and the scene became very embarrassing.
Seeing that the generals in the camp were silent, Zhu Cihong's face was a little unpleasant, and he continued to shout: "Who is going to fight? For the vanguard of our army? ”
"The last will go!"
The person who spoke out was Zhou Yuji, his voice was sonorous and powerful, with a sense of heroism.
Zhu Cihong shook his head and said, "You have too few people to be a pioneer. ”
Zhou Yu Jilang said: "Although there are only more than 1,500 people left in the Zhou Zi battalion of the last general's headquarters, they can also behead 3,000 slaves and thieves and fight to the last pawn!" ”
Zhu Cihong nodded, silently praised him in his heart, and continued: "General Zhou is loyal and brave, but fighting is not your business alone. ”
Zhu Cihong said: "Since the generals have no fighting spirit, and the palace is not reluctant, the matter of joining forces to attack will be stopped!" ”
That's it? Everyone didn't believe it in their hearts, what kind of moth did this little prince want to do?
Zhu Cihong is also helpless, although his Yongwei battalion is very fierce, but he can't cover his teammates too weak, he can't take the Yongwei battalion to fill it up, and in the end, he has to share the battle with this group of five scum?
Originally, Zhu Cihong planned to assign tasks in this military meeting, where you go, who to fight, where he goes, who to fight, how to fight, how to fight, how to fight badly, how to do it, 1510 is clear, and when the meeting is over, he will pack up his things and send troops.
It turned out to be all cold! Zhu Cihong can only reassign the task, change it to where you go to guard, where he goes, you can't fight, you can always guard, right?
In the end, Zhu Cihong ordered Zu Dale to lead the army to support Ma Rulong to defend Jizhou, Shandong general soldier Liu Zeqing to guard Tianjin Wuqing Caoyun, Miyun general soldier Li Chongzhen moved from Shunyi to Miyun and re-guarded Miyun, Baoding general soldier Dong Yongwen guarded Huairou, Zhou Yuji led Zhou Zi battalion and Datong soldiers to guard Shunyi, Shanxi general army was as fierce as a tiger to guard Tongzhou, and Sun Yingyuan went to Xincheng to lead a new battalion to guard Xincheng......
In this deployment, with Tongzhou in the east of the Beijing Division as the center, from north to south, Miyun, Huairou, Shunyi, Tongzhou, Xincheng, Langfang, Wuqing, Zhu Cihong will form an iron wall in several places, blocking all the Qing troops in the east of the Beijing Division on the line of Pinggu and Baodi, and depleting the living force of the Tartars to the greatest extent.
The base population of the Tartars is small, the soldiers are extremely precious, and it is difficult to replenish every Tatar soldier consumed, if the 100,000 Qing troops of the Ming Dynasty are completely wiped out, the Manchu Qing will not dare to invade the territory on a large scale for at least ten years, even if half of them can be destroyed, the vitality of the Manchu Qing will be greatly damaged!
Although the Qing army lost more than 20,000 people this time, it was basically the Han army and Mongolian soldiers of the Eight Banners, and the Manchurian soldiers of the Eight Banners consumed very little.
As for whether the Mongolian tribes and the two Tartars of the Han army, who had suffered heavy losses, would be separated from Germany, Azig and Abatai didn't bother to care, that was Huang Taiji's business, and these two people were not interested in Huang Taiji, so they didn't bother to worry about him.
Zhu Cihong specially told Zu Dale that the Tartars must go to Jizhou when they go out of the customs, and asked him to guard Jizhou City with Ma Rulong! The eastern armies formed a flanking attack, and Zu Dale said that he would do his best, and he would not run.
Zhu Cihong was worried that Zhou Yuji's low position would not be able to suppress the Datong generals, so he promoted him from a guerrilla general to a staff general, and sent Cao Huachun to sit in Shunyi.
In the end, Zhu Cihong said solemnly: "For this deployment, there are only two requirements from the palace!" First, it is forbidden to disturb the people, and anyone who has fish and flesh for the people will be beheaded! ”
"Second, defend the city, if the cities find that the Tartars are attacking the city, they will immediately send a signal, and the palace will arrange support, if someone abandons the city and flees, the palace will not be spared!"
Zhu Cihong said again: "Don't worry about the grain and grass, the Jingshi will send it in a steady stream, and the reinforcements don't have to worry, as long as they are surrounded, the palace will send people to rescue, the only thing you have to do is to keep your own place, and you can't let the Tartars be unscrupulous around the Jingshi as before!" ”
Zhu Cihong also set up a military discipline patrol team in the theater, with Xu Sheng holding the sword of Shangfang, leading the guards of the East Palace to inspect the cities, and Li Tingbiao's brocade guards supplemented him, but there are scourges to the people, and the generals who are lax in defense can be killed on the spot below the general army!
Although the generals were intimidated by the military discipline inspection team in this theater, they were also relieved, just defending the city, then there was no problem, this was their old job, as long as they didn't go out of the city to fight with the Tartars.
After the meeting was dismissed, Zhu Cihong returned to the camp, his brain hurt a little, and he was thinking about how to fight next.
At this time, he got the news that on the 24th, Lu Xiangsheng was ordered to lead the Tianxiong Army into Beijing to rescue, and now he has been temporarily stationed in Zhending.
Zhu Cihong was puzzled, he fought well in Gyeonggi, I don't know why Emperor Lao Tzu transferred Lu Xiangsheng back to Beijing at this time, the war situation in the Central Plains Emperor Lao Tzu should know better than anyone else, Lu Xiangsheng retreats like this, and the rogues will definitely get a chance to breathe.
Li Tingbiao whispered in Zhu Cihong's ear: "The king of Tang asked King Qin, but His Majesty did not allow it, and the king of Tang ignored the national rule of "the vassal king is not in charge of the army", and privately recruited troops and bought horses, and is now leading the troops to the north to King Qin, His Majesty ordered him to return to the fiefdom, I don't know what the king of Tang plans to do......"
Zhu Cihong guessed in his heart: "Could it be that my father asked Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army to stop King Tang's escort army from going north?" ”
This Tang King is the later Southern Ming Longwu Emperor Zhu Yujian, who has a high historical evaluation, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time.
Zhu Cihong had heard a little about him, and didn't believe that he could do anything at this time to take advantage of the opportunity to force the palace, and with the thousands of guards newly recruited by the Tang King, it was impossible even if he wanted to do anything out of the ordinary in Beijing.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Cihong decided to play Chongzhen and asked for Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army to go north to join the Yongwei battalion and fight the slaves and thieves together!
Two days later, Zhu Cihong received a reply from Emperor Chongzhen, and the imperial court had ordered Lu Xiangsheng to lead the army north to Tongzhou.
At this time, Tang King Zhu Yujian also returned to his hometown, and he led the army out of the fiefdom without even encountering a ghost of the Qing army along the way, but met and fought with Liukou halfway.
The two sides fought for a few battles, winning and losing each other, and happened to encounter the holy decree ordering him to return to the fiefdom, so the king of Tang had to return to the Nanyang fiefdom.
