Chapter 1160 Sleep side by side
Gong Dingyu fought with Chi Qi for several days, and there was no winner or loser, and both sides made concessions, but on key issues, they did not give an inch.
The peace talks have reached an impasse for a while!
Li Zicheng was not in a hurry, he was busy reorganizing the Eagle Cavalry, and the six Tartars from Liaoyang had already arrived in Shengjing, joined the Eagle Cavalry, and began to spread Catholicism among the Eagle Cavalry.
Li Zicheng told Luo Wenfeng that while there was no war now, all the soldiers should be baptized and converted to Catholicism as soon as possible.
The next day, the 200 prisoners of war and more than 2,000 Manchurian women captured in Fushun were escorted to the camp of the Heavenly Mandate Army outside the southern city of Shengjing.
Those who were willing to "become Han nationality", "worship God", and join the Eagle Cavalry were all left behind and immediately reorganized, and those who were not reluctant in the slightest were immediately returned.
Perhaps Luo Wenfeng knew Li Zicheng's thoughts, these Manchurians, once they were returned, they would definitely be beheaded, so he tried every means to let all the prisoners of war join the Eagle Cavalry.
The Eagle Cavalry had a second thousand.
Of the original 1,000 households, there were 11 and a half hundred households, and the excess 1/200 households were removed and numbered as the 1,000th household; The surplus one and a half hundred households of the first thousand, together with the new prisoners of war, were combined into the two thousandth households.
The second thousandth household is only three and a half hundred.
There are more than 2,000 Manchurian women, if they are assigned to the Eagle Cavalry, it is more than enough, but Li Zicheng has promised Yang Kun that all the soldiers of the Fifth Division who have not started a family will get a young Tartar woman, and these women will be given priority to the soldiers of the Fifth Division.
If the soldiers of the Eagle Cavalry lacked women, they could go to the steppe to plunder.
These women were temporarily adopted in the camp, and it won't be long anyway......
Gao Yigong has sent a message that Tieling has been taken, the Tartars have been completely annihilated, and in a few days, the Tartars around Tieling will be cleared, and within the entire side wall, Shengjing will become a real lonely city!
Li Zicheng no longer cared much about the peace talks, as long as Huaxia and the Manchus did not reach an agreement, the two sides would be in a state of war, and any means of war would be feasible.
After another three days, the tiger cavalry and the wolf cavalry returned to Shengjing from the north, and this time, they swaggered to the foot of Shengjing.
They were accompanied by 500 Tartar prisoners of war and more than 3,000 Tartar women, who remained in Tieling City for the time being.
The Fifth Division remained in Tieling to maintain local order and clear the remnants of the Tartars.
Li Zicheng handed over the 500 Tartar prisoners of war to Luo Wenfeng, incorporated them into the Eagle Cavalry, gave him half a day to assemble and register, and then traveled west overnight, rushed along the official road to the west side wall, and while training and familiarizing himself with military discipline, he monitored the Horqin people in the northwest direction.
Li Zicheng drove Luo Xiujuan and Luo Ling to their tents, and summoned Li Xin, Zhou Fengwu, Li Mou, Bai Guangen, Gao Yigong, Wang Junzhuo, and Xu Erxian in the big tent overnight to make pre-war arrangements.
The time of the siege is set at the day after tomorrow, and the south and east cities will be the main attack, and the west and north cities will be mainly defended.
Nancheng was the first attack point, which was attacked by the second division and personally commanded by Li Xin; Dongcheng was the second attack point, which was attacked by the first division, and Zhou Fengwu was in charge of command; The two attack points were all based on mountain runs, and the howitzers and the red-coated cannons of the White Wolf Battalion were all concentrated outside the southern city and controlled by Li Xin.
The four regiments of the Bai Guangen Division of the Fourth Division were each responsible for their duties: the third regiment attacked Xicheng, and the first regiment guarded; The fourth regiment attacked the northern city, and the second regiment defended
Protect.
If the southern or eastern city was breached, the 3rd and 4th regiments immediately stopped the attack, joined up with the other regiment, and arranged a defensive formation outside the city to prevent the Manchu cavalry from breaking through.
Li Zicheng considered that this was a decisive battle with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, once the Manchu cavalry was defeated, they would definitely break through, and the direction of the breakthrough would not be the South City Gate and the East City Gate, only the West City Gate and the North City Gate, so he let Gao Yigong's tiger cavalry and Wang Junzhuo's wolf cavalry all ambush outside the North City.
Li Xin was puzzled, "Your Majesty, what about the West City Gate, once the Manchu cavalry broke through, there were only two regiments outside the West City, and they were mainly infantry, and the first regiment practiced horsemanship, but in just a few days, there was not much combat power on horseback!"
Li Zicheng said with a smile: "My own soldiers, it's time to make some war exploits, otherwise the soldiers will always complain!"
"No, absolutely not!" Li Xin categorically refused, "Once the Manchu cavalry breaks through, they will be poor and more ferocious than usual, and the emperor must not take risks!"
Zhou Fengwu and Li Mu also said: "Victory is imminent, the emperor must not be in danger!"
Gao Yigong stood up anxiously, "Your Majesty, let the wolf cavalry stay outside the West City, and the minister is willing to lead the tiger cavalry to ambush the Tartars outside the North City, if the Tartars are released, the ministers are willing to sacrifice their heads." ”
Wang Junzhuo continued: "Your Majesty, the minister is also willing to use his head to vouch for it, and there will definitely not be a Tartar who escapes outside the West City!"
Li Zicheng shook his head, "Your intentions, I understand that in Shengjing City, there are tens of thousands of cavalry in the Manchu Dynasty, and it is absolutely impossible not to let go of a Tartar, I let the tiger cavalry and the wolf cavalry stay outside the northern city, so as to intercept and kill the Manchu rout to the greatest extent, so as not to leave trouble." ”
"Your Majesty, even if you intercept and kill the Tartars, you don't need the emperor's personal soldiers......"
"My own soldiers are not honor guards, they are not only cavalry, but also equipped with rifles, and have the skills of both infantry and cavalry, intercepting and killing Tartars, they are just right!"
"The Emperor's ......"
"I have made up my mind, you don't need to say it," Li Zicheng waved his hand and said: "Actually, intercepting and killing the Manchu cavalry is not as dangerous as you think, at that time, the Shengjing City was broken, and the first or second division was pursuing behind, and the Manchu cavalry was already like a frightened bird, they would only take the road and flee, and they would never dare to fight, even if they couldn't keep them, I wouldn't be in danger." ”
Li Xin knew that he couldn't persuade the emperor, thought for a moment, and said: "The emperor's personal soldiers can fight, but the emperor can't stay in the west of the city, he must stay in the south of the city, there are a large number of artillery in the south of the city, the Tartars will definitely not break through from the south of the city, and the ambush battle in the west of the city will be handed over to General He!"
"My own soldiers are all in the west of the city, but I want to stay outside the city to hide?" Li Zicheng said with a smile: "The Great Khan of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the Emperor, which one is not charging on the battlefield?" ”
"Your Majesty, the system of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is different from that of my Huaxia......"
"Okay, today's pre-war deployment, that's the end of it, generals, go back and rest early, and tomorrow you will have to do pre-war mobilization," Li Zicheng glanced at Gao Yigong and Wang Junzhuo, and said: "The two Aiqing have been on a long-distance attack, and they have just returned to Shengjing City, so they have to rest well, once the Manchu cavalry breaks through, the infantry will definitely not be able to catch up, or you will escort Dolgon!"
"Obey the order!"
After everyone dispersed, Li Zicheng lay alone on the marching bed, unable to sleep for a long time because of his excitement.
This was a decisive battle between Huaxia and the Manchus, and if Huaxia was defeated, or failed to break through Shengjing, morale would be low, and soldiers would be killed or wounded...... China's northern expedition was a futile.
Not only the Eagle Cavalry of Luo Wenfeng is not popular
Stability, that is, the Mongolian tribes outside the customs may also have different hearts.
China will not destroy the country, but the grasslands in the north will re-contain the main energy of China, and even the entire national policy will undergo great changes;
On the contrary, once the Mandate of Heaven army broke through Shengjing and severely damaged the Manchu cavalry, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was very likely to destroy the country, even if it would not become extinct, it would degenerate into a small tribe of nomadic herding in the mountains and forests, fishing and hunting, and within a few years, Huaxia would be able to completely solve the national disaster in Liaodong!
The war in the north will not end for the time being, but the scale will be greatly reduced.
Thinking that the strong men of the nomadic tribe were all natural warriors, Li Zicheng still decided that the population of the nomadic tribe must be reduced through war.
There are not enough strong men for the nomadic tribe to decline......
When he set out from Xi'an to attack the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng had never been so nervous, and the Ming Dynasty at that time should be much stronger than the Manchu Qing Dynasty who are now trapped in the isolated city.
Li Zicheng thought for a moment, and the reason was probably the national issue.
If the Ming army could not be defeated at that time, and then replace the Ming Dynasty and establish a unified regime, the Han people would still be there, and today's battle is to resist and annihilate foreign peoples, and strive for greater survival and development space for the Han nation and China.
The merit is in the contemporary, and the benefit is in the future!
Perhaps this battle will not permanently solve the nomadic people in the north, but at least it will affect the pattern and trend of the next few decades or hundreds of years......
Luo Ling saw that Li Zicheng's guests had left, but there was still a lamp in the big tent, so she stood outside the roller curtain and said carefully: "Your Majesty, can the slaves and maids come in?" ”
"Luo Ling?" Li Zicheng's face showed a wry smile, he just couldn't sleep, so it was better to let Luo Ling come over to accompany him, so he said casually: "Come in, I'm waiting!"
"Yes, the slaves will come right now!" Luo Ling's voice was a little excited.
Li Zicheng thought that the day after tomorrow he would attack the Manchu Shengjing City, and he would sleep with the women of the Qing Dynasty tonight, and he felt a little strange in his heart, but thinking of the sins that the Manchus had inflicted on the Han people, it was not too much to treat them no matter how they were treated.
The Han people advocated benevolence, righteousness and faith, and at that time, they should also be virtuous to their own people, friends, and enemies? How was it that the Manchus had the upper hand, and would they have mercy on the Han Chinese?
Huaxia and the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not sign a peace treaty, and they were not even friends, they were real enemies!
However, if all goes well in the battle the day after tomorrow, the relationship between China and the Manchus may have to change somewhat......
Luo Ling opened the rolling curtain and cautiously came in, Li Zicheng didn't expect Luo Xiujuan to come in with her, and there was surprise on her face.
Luo Xiujuan glanced at Li Zicheng, and quickly lowered her head to avoid Li Zicheng's gaze, "Slaves are not used to sleeping alone in the tent......"
Li Zicheng smiled at her, but unfortunately Luo Xiujuan didn't see it, "Then sleep in the small bed!"
Although the soldiers built a camp tent for Luo Xiujuan and Luo Ling, the small bed in Li Zicheng's big tent was not removed, and it seemed to have become Luo Xiujuan's exclusive use.
Luo Ling first served Luo Xiujuan to lie down and rest, Luo Xiujuan pointed to the lamp and candle with her finger, Luo Ling understood, and hurriedly walked over to extinguish the lamp and candle.
It was dark in the big tent, and Li Zicheng heard a sound that lasted for a while, and then there was the sound of the small bed creaking, and he wondered in his heart: Is Luo Xiujuan willing to strip and go to bed? I sleep in my clothes every day, and it's really hard for her......
Just thinking about it, Luo Ling crawled over from her feet, lay down next to Li Zicheng, and slept with him......
