Chapter 834: Mongolian Warriors, Go Plug the Gun Hole!
Shunzhi said that there was no way back for the Great Mongols, not the Great Qing Dynasty...... These are two concepts!
If he said that there was no way back for the Qing Dynasty, the ministers of the Parliamentary King who were in charge of the defense must have something to say.
How could the Great Qing Kingdom have no way back? Isn't Beijing a way out? It's all solid now!
Moreover, there is an imperial city in Beijing, which has been rebuilt recently, and it will also be renovated into a fortress. There is also a coal mountain fortress in the imperial city, and the Forbidden City has no plans to rebuild, because when the Ming army broke through the Beijing fortress and the imperial fortress in succession, the Qing warriors who were defending should have suffered heavy losses, and it was not enough to defend the Forbidden City. Therefore, Sukh Saha, the commander of the Nine Gates who was in charge of the defense of Beijing, chose the coal mountain located in the imperial city, north of the Forbidden City, as the last refuge of the Shunzhi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
The coal mountain is high, there are thirteen or fourteen zhang, and the area is not large, so there is no need for too many defenders, and it is also close to the North Sea, which is convenient for taking water, and can be held for a long time.
Therefore, Sukh Saha asked the Shunzhi Emperor for approval to build a coal mountain fortress. This fortress is a multi-storey fortress, the bottom layer is between the coal mountain and the North Sea, and the city wall is more than 200 zhang long and more than 3 zhang high. The northeast and southeast corners of the city wall are placed on the coal mountain, with the North Sea to the west, the Forbidden City to the south, and the north to the north wall of the Imperial City. The three walls of the city are very thick, four zhang away, rammed earth is covered with bricks, and the outer side is still sloped. And to the west of the city wall is the second layer of the coal mountain fortress, which is built on the mountain of the coal mountain, the second layer is above the third layer, the third layer is the fourth layer, and the fourth layer is the fifth layer on the fourth floor...... There are five layers of walls, which is really impregnable!
Moreover, Sukh Saha also plans to transport a few Hongyi cannons to the fifth layer of the Coal Mountain Fortress and fight the cannons from a high position!
What a retreat!
Enough to hold out until the arrival of reinforcements from the emperor's uncle Duoduo, if you really can't wait, then ......
But Great Mongolia is different!
There is no way back for the Great Mongolia, and the cause started by Genghis Khan has reached the most dangerous time!
Shunzhi glanced at his own minister and cowardly Xue Ying commander Namu Shengge, he is a son with a surname, an authentic descendant of the golden family!
"What the Great Khan said is very true!" Of course, Namushengge knew what to say, "Our Great Mongolia has already lost Beijing City once, but we can't lose it a second time!" Moreover, the tens of thousands of heroes on the steppe who followed the Great Khan to the south are waiting to avenge their ancestors! Now the opportunity comes, and the gang of southern barbarian traitors will send it to the door themselves. What are they capable of? Isn't it just a mule soldier fighting a black gun? Can it be compared to our Mongol cavalry? When our heroes on the grassland encounter this kind of traitor with black guns, it's not like they will kill as many as they encounter! ”
That's a beautiful thing to say! And it sounds like it's a hate!
But the problem is that the Mongols brought by Emperor Shunzhi do not seem to be able to defeat the "black spearmen" of the Ming Shuo army on the Hetao steppe, nor can they beat the "black spearmen" of the Cossacks on the steppe.
Moreover, neither the Shuofang army nor the Cossacks were equipped with flintlock muskets, and they overturned the Mongol iron cavalry with arquebuses......
Emperor Shunzhi nodded with satisfaction, "Well said...... We Mongolians can't ask the southern barbarians to drive out of Beijing for the second time, no, it's the capital!
Moreover, the set of the Southern Barbarian Mule Soldiers can be completely cracked by relying on the riding and archery skills of our grassland heroes. Besides, how many mule soldiers can they have? It can't be more than 10,000 people, right? I brought 50,000 Mongolian iron horsemen to the Central Plains, and I beat one of them, and I trampled on them! ”
"Great Khan," Sonny of course knew that the Mongols were unreliable, "and we can't just rely on the heroes of the steppe...... Our own elite soldiers have to go into battle, too! ”
He has already begun to come up with ideas for Shunji.
Now the brave king, as well as the first Baturu in Manchuria, the first Baturu in the Pacific, and a few princes who can fight are not there, so he has to reluctantly make it difficult for him.
"Your Majesty," he thought for a moment, "the Southern Army has made it clear that it wants to send reinforcements in Texas, and we can't send it up ourselves!" What the slave means, let's give him a way to give him another way, and give him back...... Didn't their mule soldiers come to Riverhouse? Let's use the Mongol iron cavalry to trap the mule soldiers of the southern army, and then use them to lure Shi Kefa's army north. After Shi Kefa goes north, we will send the elites of the Forward Battalion, the Firearms Battalion, the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and the Cowardly Xue Battalion to go around Shi Kefa's back and cut off his retreat. It's the same as when the first emperor beat Hong Chengchou! As long as Shi Kefa's retreat is cut off, starvation will starve him to death! ”
Not to mention, although Sony's ranking of Baturu is not very good-looking, he still has skills, and he quickly prepared a military strategy for Shunzhi Khan that looks quite reliable.
Now the question is whether those Mongol warriors brought by Shunzhi are willing to do it?
"Great Khan, the minion has another proposal." Sun Zhiqi, a good servant of the Qing Dynasty, opened his mouth, "The warriors of the Great Khan need a little encouragement!" Although this Jiangnan is good, the warriors may not be able to wait, so it is better to allow them to fight a little grass valley in the south of Beizhili. ”
Shunzhi was a little unhappy when he heard it, "The north and south of Zhili are the territory of the Great Qing Kingdom, and they are still convinced!" Let the Mongols rob it? ”
"It's just a little grass valley!" Sun Zhiqi smiled, "How can it be called robbery?" The warriors of the Great Khan beat the grass valley, how can it be considered a robbery? ”
Not a robbery? Shunzhi looked at the ministers under his hand.
"It's not a robbery...... The matter of the Great Khan, how can it be called robbery? ”
"Yes, yes, that's not called robbery!"
"That's the glory of the Han people!"
"That's right, they can't even offer it!"
"If it weren't for the warriors of the Great Khan to protect them, they would have been enslaved by the Southern Barbarians!"
......
The cold wind gradually rose again, rolling up the snow and dust all over the field, and it looked foggy from afar. The sky gradually became gloomy, and dark clouds piled up from a distance, and the color was leaden black and very depressing.
Xia Wanchun lema was beside the deputy general Li Yuanyin, and sniffled: "The weather in Beizhili is really cold, the ice and snow, and the big rivers and streams are frozen...... What a bitter cold place! ”
Li Yuanyin is a native of Nanyang Mansion, Henan, less plundered by Li Chengdong, and was later accepted as a righteous son, followed Li Chengdong to fight in the north and south, and went to many bitter and barren places, including no North Zhili.
Listening to the comments of Xia Wanchun from the rich and warm Jiangnan Water Town, Li Yuanyin laughed: "This is Beizhili, and it used to be at the foot of the Son of Heaven...... It is considered rich, although it is not as good as Nanzhili, but it is also a good place for the first class in the world. ”
"What? That's the first wait? Xia Wanchun looked disdainful, "It's so cold, I don't see a few rivers, and I can't even see a few villages...... The bitter cold place outside the gate is nothing more than that, right? ”
"Hahaha, you Jiangnanzi, you don't know what bitter cold is!" Li Yuanyin laughed, "You are in the army now, and you will go to many bitter cold places in the future, and you will know how good it is to be born in Jiangnan when the time comes." ”
Gangnam is of course good! Jiangnan, along with the coastal areas of Fujian and Guangdong, is a good place to enjoy the dividends of the Age of Discovery!
A considerable part of the silver produced in the Americas flowed to the coastal areas south of the Yangtze River and Fujian and Guangdong. Moreover, the tax evasion system of scholars in the Ming Dynasty also promoted the great development of domestic trade to a certain extent - there are no tax cards everywhere! Of course, the cost of the circulation of goods is reduced! Therefore, Jiangnan, Fujian and Guangdong, which were eating the dividends of the great voyage, easily absorbed the silver from the mainland.
As for the reason, it is obvious that it is the cost advantage and quality advantage brought by large-scale production - because the overseas market is at the bottom, and there is a relatively abundant supply of agricultural products (the handicraft population needs to eat!). So the scale of the handicraft industry in Jiangnan, Fujian and Guangdong has exploded in other parts of China. Moreover, large-scale production and relatively full competition also make the quality of handmade products in Jiangnan, Fujian and Guangdong exceed those in other places.
Therefore, the handicraft products of high quality, low price and sufficient quantity are absorbed from all over the world in Tijiangnan, Fujian and Guangdong to complete capital accumulation.
The completion of capital accumulation in the southeast of the Ming Dynasty and the series of policies adopted by Zhu Cihong to promote the development of capitalism were of course detrimental to the economic development and balance of the rest of China......
Therefore, it is not surprising that Xia Wanchun, who was born in the south of the Yangtze River, also felt very depressed and desolate when he saw the first good place in the Ming Dynasty.
Bang! Bang! Bang......
Just as Li Yuanyin and Xia Wanchun were talking, a burst of gunfire suddenly sounded in the distance!
