Chapter 562: Wang Yan went out of Sichuan
On the battlefield of Sichuan and Shu, as Haoge retreated to the Chengdu Plain and did not fight in the summer, the Ming army naturally took advantage of the opportunity to regain lost territory.
At the end of July, Li Dingguo, the commander of the Zhenwu Battalion in Zhongyi Town, led his troops to the north and conquered Hezhou again.
Wang Yan got the report, so he immediately sent a fast horse into Gui, arrested the families of the two generals, confiscated the family property, handed over to the Dali Temple of the Criminal Department for trial, and exterminated the three clans.
After the Ming army recovered Kuizhou and Chongqing Prefecture, the Zhenwu Battalion of Zhongyi Town occupied Xuzhou Prefecture and Jiading Prefecture in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, which made the southern Sichuan Prefectures rebel.
By the beginning of August, the situation in Sichuan and Shu gradually evolved into a situation in which the Qing army relied on the advantage of cavalry to control the Chengdu Plain, while the Ming army occupied the hilly area around the basin, forming a state of confrontation.
By mid-August, after the Ming army entered and occupied Shunqing Mansion, it suddenly closed its offensive and began to shift from offensive to defensive posture.
The seasons changed, the weather gradually entered autumn, the climate became cooler, the Qing army on the Chengdu Plain began to move, and Wang Yan received the news from Huguang, so that the Ming army turned into a defensive posture in advance.
More than 200,000 Qing soldiers attacked Chu and Jiangxi in three ways, which made Wang Yan's heart tighten, and decided to leave the Ming army of Zhongyi Town, Jiao Lian, Zeng Ying and other departments, as well as the righteous army from all over Sichuan, to guard eastern and southern Sichuan. Before they entered the winter again, they were ordered to strengthen the danger and prevent the Qing army from counterattacking, while Wang Yan went down the river and entered Huguang with loyalty, loyalty, and supervision.
It is difficult to enter Sichuan, and it is even more difficult to get out of Sichuan, the road in Guizhou, the Ming army has already seen it once, and the army does not want to go aside.
On both sides of the Yangtze River, the mountain road stretched, the Ming army infantry was dragged for twenty or thirty miles, on the river, countless bamboo rafts and boats went down the river, the scene was magnificent.
"On the West Gorge, hey, hey, the beach is even the beach~"
"Passing through Luoju is a gun~ three is two, and after Chungju is Daxikou~ Entering the Three Gorges is a beach and a beach~"
Experienced old boatmen, controlling boats, rafts, with the unique horn of the land of Bashu, the water pattern of the Yangtze River is recorded, the sound of the horn resounded on both sides, and the ape cries on the cliff that led to it non-stop.
When Wang Yan went east, at the northern foot of Xiawu Mountain, in a dense forest, a team of savages came out of the mountain forest one after another.
From the beginning of entering the Foggy Mountains, there are deserted mountains and forests full of thorns, and it is still a trivial matter to find food, and even the road cannot be found.
When entering the mountain, Wu Bing still had the appearance of an army, and when he came out of the mountain, this elite soldier who had been powerful in the past was so miserable and miserable, his body was filthy, his clothes were all cut into strips by thorns, and even the beggars looked better than them.
This appearance, if you tell others that this is the king of Pingxi in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, you will be sure to be spit on your face, of course, even if Wu Sangui wears a full coat and hat, someone may spit on his face.
At this time, Wu Sangui didn't care about his own image, he walked in the mountains for a month, he didn't care, he walked out of the dense forest, standing on a meadow, the autumn sun sprinkled on his body, he only felt like a new life, he couldn't help but open his arms and look up to the sky and roar, "This king has come out!" Haha~ Wang Yan, this king's suffering today will be repaid by you twice as much in the coming day!. ”
The remnants of Guanning who walked out of the mountains and forests one after another, one by one also cried with joy, too fucking bitter, too fucking miserable, this is a bird place in eastern Sichuan, you can't see the top of the mountain when you look up, you can't see the bottom of the mountain when you look down, there is no road to the road, mosquitoes are swarming, snakes and ants are everywhere, who dares to let them go again, and the iron will **** first.
At this time, Wang Yan's attention was no longer on Guan Ningjun, but Wu Sangui's concubine Wu Yinglin, Wang Yan did not kill him, he was going to be imprisoned first, in case Wu Sangui walked out of the mountain, he might be able to use this son to publicize more in the future.
When Wang Yan received the news, the fighting on the Eastern Front had been going on for more than two months.
On the Eastern Front, except for Jiangxi all the way to a close match, the Xiangyang and Wuchang Ming armies were basically in a situation of passive beating.
The defense line of the Ming army in Hubei, originally considered perfect, the north of Xiangyang Jiancheng, dominating the world, not more than 100,000 horses, not to fight for half a year to take it, the east of Wuchang, the Ming army was originally deployed along the Qihuang region, this piece of mountain stretches, and there are Qihuang 48 villages to rely on, enough to resist the Qing army, but Liu Chengyin fled without a fight, causing the 48 villages to respond to the battle in a hurry, the result was a miserable failure, and the east gate of Wuchang was suddenly opened.
The Qing army passed through the Qihuang area, leaving the section from Wuchang to Jingzhou, except for the city and the Yangtze River, there was basically no support in terms of geographical advantages.
The county towns along the way are not big, and it is okay to defend against bandits, but it is impossible to defend the Qing army for a long time, so He Tengjiao and Du Yinxi decided to abandon the small and protect the big ones, and at the same time decided to defend the two cities of Wuchang and Jiangxia, he ordered the transfer of military and civilians in Xianning, Tongshan, Dazhi and other counties that were still under the control of the Ming army.
For a time, officials, officials, and gentry in and out of the county government offices looked very flustered, and the situation in the city was even worse.
Some well-informed gentry have long since sold their properties, sold their fertile land and houses at low prices, and fled to Hunan with their families after they made a move.
The government in the city received the order of the political envoy, and the work efficiency was also quite fast, and the evacuation notice was quickly posted, and the village also sent officials to beat gongs and drums to make announcements and let the villagers move.
The officials in the city went to the streets to maintain order, avoid causing panic, and assist the people to evacuate, but the people were not soldiers after all, and they panicked when they heard that they were told to move.
Did the Qing soldiers fight Wuchang? People are talking a lot, and the more they talk, the more panicked they become, what Inspector He committed suicide, blocked Futai and threw water into the water, and rumors flew all over the sky.
The people panicked, retreated quickly, a little family quickly went home to pack up the soft, with the ancestral spirit card, and went directly on the road, the fastest speed is those who have just settled down in the people of northern Hubei Province, he has seen the brutality of the Qing soldiers, and also has the experience of fleeing last time, although the stable life of this year, splashing with the improvement of the family business is a little reluctant, but life is more important than anything else, and they believe that the court will be like the last time, in the direction of their escape, prepare food, prepare a new home.
For a time, the situation of the people of northern Hubei fleeing south in the past year was staged in the land of eastern Hubei Province, hundreds of people helped the old and the young, and pushed carts to carry the burden to Hunan, and the land of eastern Hubei was full of people, like ants moving to one side, pouring towards Yuezhou.
However, compared with the last time, the situation this time is somewhat better, and through the organization of the government, most people can bring enough soft and food rations, which greatly reduces the pressure on the government.
