Chapter 623: Go, Go Upside Down
Hearing the news that Yan Shenggong had run away, Dolgon's tears were about to fall...... He finally saw hope for a solution!
He is powerful in battle, but the person who set up the trap is definitely Zhu Cihong!
He is now trapped by Zhu Cihong in Shandong, in Qufu Konglin, theoretically there is no hope of unraveling, even if he can defeat Zhu Cihong on the battlefield a few times, he can't solve the trap, he can only cut the position out.
And it's not a cut of one or two, at least the territory in Shandong and Henan plus Wu Sangui will be cut out, and Zhu Cihong will not give up Luliang Mountain and Lushunkou...... will also unceremoniously accept Dongguo Gege as an add-on.
If it is cut to this extent, the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty will be able to live in peace in the future, and Dolgon will grit his teeth and agree. This situation is much stronger than the Liao State in the Song-Liao confrontation in the past, right?
And Beizhili and most of Shanxi have been saved!
In addition, Dolgon was able to relocate part of the population of Henan and Shandong to Guanwai. In this way, the Great Qing Kingdom can have a population of at least 10 million, and for a country like the Great Qing Dynasty with few people and many land, population is the productive force and wealth.
But Dolgon also knew that Zhu Cihong would not be peaceful for a few years after he got cheap, and when he digested the territory of Shandong and Henan, he would soon launch the Third Northern Expedition...... When the time comes, Dorgon will be the last Emperor Amma!
And Kong Yinzhi's abandonment of the city made Dolgon see the hope of unraveling!
It may not really be unraveled, but there is hope.
Suke Saha and Fan Wencheng couldn't hold back their excitement. They also know the importance of Qufu - Qufu is a strong fortress that the Qing Kingdom has not been able to build for three years!
Once Qufu was taken, the Qing State controlled most of Yanzhou, and was also able to cut off the land lines of communication between the southeast of the Ming Dynasty and Shandong.
The situation of the Qing Dynasty in Shandong will be greatly improved!
After leaving some troops to control the Qufu Daleng Fort, the Qing army could temporarily withdraw from the east bank of the canal and transfer its forces to Henan Province in order to defeat Zhang Xianzhong and then push the battle line back to Guanzhong.
In this way, the Great Qing Kingdom could deter Wu Sangui from the east, and Wu Sangui, a despicable villain, would not dare to rebel......
Of course, that's the big picture. For the soldiers of the Nine Banners of the Qing Dynasty who followed Dolgon to Shandong, the treasures in Qufu City and underground were what they wanted most.
Zhu Cihong's stir-fried "Kong Lin Inverted Bucket" theme is a theme that can be self-realized!
Because this incident not only deceived the scholars and doctors in the southeast of the Ming Dynasty, but also made many officers and soldiers of the Qing army believe that there were treasures under Qufu...... Since there is a treasure, what's wrong with digging a little out and giving everyone points?
It's been a few days since everyone went out with Dolgon, and the war is still far from over. To make matters worse, this time the battle with the Ming army was basically detrimental.
The loss is not only human life, but also untold wealth!
The current Qing army practiced land military service, that is, relying on the income from land grants to support the cost of military service. The old Eight Banners have coats and tenants, and they don't farm themselves, so they can go out for a long time.
But Zhengluqi has no coating, and there are no tenants, so he can only be half a soldier and half a farmer. Once the war goes on endlessly, and there is no loot to grab, this kind of half-soldier and half-peasant "real estate soldiers" will definitely go bankrupt.
Part of the reason why the historical government military system could not survive was this.
Moreover, the Qing army's green flag soldiers lost not only delays in agricultural affairs in this war, but also many of the green flag soldiers' granges were burned by the Ming army!
If they don't be allowed to fight backwards, by this time next year, they will not have to win the battle and die, they will almost die poor.
Zhengluqi is poor and dead, can the old Eight Banners still have a way to live? Just their little people, how many times can they win Zhu Cihong?
Seeing that Dolgon knew the surprise, Sukh Saha forgot to give the order, and hurriedly reminded: "Huang Ama, send troops to chase after you...... Don't let Yan Shenggong run away! He must have run away with the gold and silver treasures! ”
Fan Wencheng was also busy making plans: "In the previous battle, we captured a lot of armor and battle jackets of the Southern Army, and now we can find some people to pretend to be the Southern Army to go to the city." As soon as Yan Shenggong left, there must be a lot of confusion in Qufu City, if a team of southern troops arrived, the people in the city would probably open the city to greet them! ”
Zuo Maotai just sighed.
What is this called? He was a Jinshi from Shandong, because of the difference of one thought, no, it should be the difference of two thoughts, first surrendered to Li Zicheng, and then surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and became a third minister..... Now I have to dig the grave of Confucius!
He thought about it, but he still had the courage to say to Dolgon: "Emperor Amma, as far as the minions know, there are no good treasures under Kong Lin......
When Dolgon heard this, he was a little strange: "Zuo Maotai, how do you know that there is no treasure in this tomb of Confucius?" Don't you ...... your family?"
His words are not complete, and the remaining half of the sentence is: Did your Zuo family dig up the grave of Confucius?
"No, no, ......no," Zuo Maotai couldn't say anything, "Huang Ama, this Confucius was an ancient man two thousand years ago, and at that time, the whole world was poor, and there was nothing good. Moreover, Confucius did not have any ambition during his lifetime, and he did not have much wealth ......"
Looking at Zuo Maotai's stammering explanation, Dolgon smiled, waved his hand and said, "Of course Kong Lin can't be dug up, I still have Zun Kong!" ”
If Confucius's grave is not dug, other people's graves can still be dug! There are so many people in the Confucian family who are doing the work of the bureaucratic landlord class, and all of them are buried in glory......
"Drums, Jujun!" Dolgon said, "Let's go to Qufu!" ”
"Wow!" Sukh Saha responded loudly, and happily went to arrange for his subordinates to give orders.
......
"Long live the Emperor! Banzai! Hooray......"
The shouts and shouts of the mountains and tsunami, wave after wave spread in the cold air, swept all the way across the flat land on the north bank of the Dawen River, and slapped on the slopes of Yunmeng Mountain and Horseshoe Mountain, startling the Ming army that was encamped here.
Zhu Cihong, who was inspecting the camp, was also surprised, what was going on? Is Dongyu really going to fight hard?
Zhu Cihong could afford to lose strategically, but he did not dare to slack off in tactics, and after leading his troops to climb Yunmeng Mountain and Horseshoe Mountain, he ordered his two divisions to cut down trees, build fortifications, and prepare to rely on the terrain to fight a defensive battle.
Now that the fortifications have just been repaired, the Dongyu is about to attack?
Zhu Cihong and Yan Yingyuan, who served as the deputy military advisor behind him (acting Li Yan and Wu Guoyong), glanced at each other, both a little incredulous.
Zhu Cihong reacted immediately, strode towards the watchtower on the top of the mountain, Yan Yingyuan and the imperial guards who followed Emperor Zhu also reacted, and followed Emperor Zhu to the watchtower together.
The group of mermaids came to the watchtower, and many generals under Zhu Cihong also rushed over, and saw Zhu Cihong kneeling down and saluting. Zhu Cihong waved his hand and shouted "no courtesy", and then waved at Yan Yingyuan, as well as Hao Shaoqi and Wang Zhou, the two division commanders, and the four of them climbed up to the watchtower platform together.
On the high platform, Zhu Cihong took the telescope handed over by Yan Yingyuan and looked south. In the line of sight, the Qing army camp with a front width of more than 20 miles lies in front of you. The barracks, which was supposed to be very quiet, was now boiling, as if the camp had been blown up. However, the order in the boiling camp of the Qing army is still good, and it can be seen from a distance that the camp tents of the Qing army have been put away one by one, loaded into carts, and a neat array of cavalry is going south for the first time. There were also scattered rangers on the white fields on the north bank of the Dawen River, and several cordons were spread.
"The Qing army is going south?" Zhu Cihong was stunned, he already knew what was going on, "Qufu, damn it, Kong Yinzhi, this bastard abandoned the city and fled!" ”
"Emperor," Hao Shaoqi asked, "The morale of the Tartars is very high, aren't they going to Qufu to dig up the Ming Weapon and make a fortune?" ”
This Hao Shaoqi is quite professional, and he also knows the "Ming Weapon". Emperor Zhu said in his heart: I'm afraid I didn't do Tufuzi, right?
Zhu Cihong sighed, "That's right...... Kong Yinzhi can only atone for his sins with death this time! ”
