On July 12, this was the day when the king of Han and his courtiers, who had just arrived in Nanjing, paid homage to the tomb of Ming Xiao. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yesterday afternoon, however, the sky changed suddenly, and in the evening it rained lightly, and although the rain had stopped at dawn, it was overcast after dawn.

Tens of thousands of soldiers of the Han army were protected in a radius of ten miles from the Ming Tomb, hundreds of ministers and nobles, as well as envoys sent by Korea, Zhengzhu, Guangnan and other countries were present. It was past the end of the hour, but the clouds had not yet dispersed.

A thin layer of bright sweat had oozed from Zhang Qilong's forehead, although his face had not changed much, Chen Ming looked at it coldly, but he felt that what he was looking at was a pressure cooker, Zhang Qilong's entire chest cavity was like a pressure cooker, and now the pressure was constantly increasing, increasing, and it was about to explode. The auspicious time was calculated by Qin Tian, but seeing that the auspicious time was coming, and the sky was still cloudy, which was not beautiful.

King Chen Han, who was determined to revive the Han family, worshiped Emperor Gaozu of the Ming Dynasty who drove out the Tartars 400 years ago and restored the Han family. It's not a cloudy time like now, if there is no miracle, Qin Tianjian will definitely be finished.

Despair and hesitation appeared in Zhang Qilong's eyes, this kind of thing Qin Tianjian definitely wants to eat the 'fruit', even if he is the uncle of the fifty-seventh generation Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain.

The Heavenly Master Dao of Longhu Mountain was only licked on his knees after the Fu Han army completely swept Guangdong. But Chen Han still gave Zhang Qilong the position of the Qintianjian supervisor, and Zhang Qilong 'calculated' that it was rainy last year, anyway, the Qintianjian is a brand, Chen Hui and Chen Ming's father and son both stood on the table as tablets, and they also gently unveiled them. But now it seems that Zhang Qilong's official luck is really not good, and the rain in the south this year has not caused any major trouble, but in this 'small matter' at the moment, the ship will capsize in the gutter.

Chen Hui was very unhappy, and his face was gloomy, thicker than the clouds above his head. His teeth were gritted and his eyes were pregnant with uncontrollable anger, like an enraged lion.

More than a quarter of an hour passed unconsciously, and Chen Er's forehead was already covered with sweat, and he looked at Chen Ming pitifully.

"Father, the auspicious time is almost ......?" What to do?

Chen Ming actually wants to scold his mother in his heart, what's going on? It is too unlucky to come and worship the filial piety tomb on a cloudy day. But if you miss the auspicious time, it seems that ...... It's even more unlucky.

Chen Hui clenched his fists, "You can't miss the auspicious time." "When I go back, I will definitely drive the surname Zhang far away.

But no matter how angry he is in his heart at the moment, Chen Hui has to straighten his demeanor, and under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, he goes to the palace of enjoyment. Chen Hui poured incense and drank wine, and knelt three times and bowed nine times.

Hundreds of officials are listed, no matter what a group of people think in their hearts, in this cloudy world, the last and most important 'trembling' of Chen Hui's sacrifice to the Ming Xiaoling Tomb will be carried out as scheduled.

No miracle happens, no' It is precisely at this time that a ray of sunlight penetrates the clouds and reflects on the hall of enjoyment, reflecting the grandeur and solemnity of the hall of enjoyment, which is extremely sacred. Chen Hui's body was rendered with a halo, like a god, and Chen Han's morale was greatly boosted, no.

Chen Hui worshiped the Ming Tomb under the clouds, and Zhang Qilong took the initiative to resign the next day.

Until now, Chen Ming has not made up his mind whether to support the Taoists or not, and in the future, the sword of the Han Dynasty will be outward, and after seizing a large area of space, there will always be a blank in religious beliefs, right?

He also thought about improving Taoism and letting them develop a new set of Taoism on their own. Learning from the monotheistic one, as well as the green one, not only in the transcendence after death, but also in birth, adulthood, marriage, and even ordinary festivals, all render the color of 'oneself'. But Chen Ming thought about it again, is the Taoism after this still the original Taoism?

He was unsure right now.

So when Zhang Qilong left Nanjing City gloomily, Chen Ming didn't send anyone to contact him.

With the end of the worship of the Ming Tomb, Yuewang Temple, Yan Yingyuan, Lu Xiangsheng, Zhu Dadian, Lingnan Sanzhong and other shrines, as well as Taiwan's Yanping Wang Temple [Zheng Chenggong is not the king of Yanping County, but the king of Yanping. The king was given by the Manchu Qing Dynasty], Chen Han also burned the Shi family ancestral hall in Yakou Village, Longhu Town, Jinjiang to a fine light, and more than 100 catties of iron material were searched in the remnants, and a kneeling statue of Shi Lang was cast and sent to the Yanping Wang Temple. Chen Han sent people to worship every year, and now he sent relatives and officials to worship everywhere, as well as the Ming history case, the "Nanshan Collection" case, the Lu Liuliang case and other victims' shrines, and also sent officials to various places to pay respects.

After that, he lifted the door of Nankong in Quzhou, and gave a post of enshrined official, and the local officials repaired and repaired the ancestral hall and family temple of Nankong, and hung a plaque written by Chen Hui himself, although the word was written very ordinary, but this was a face-saving job.

When it was all over, it was already August, and the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming.

The news that the first division had taken Guizhou came just right, and the instructors in Hanzhong also launched an offensive against Gansu, because Sichuan's offensive against Hanzhong had completely stopped, and a large number of elite Sichuan troops were transferred to Guizhou, or they were suppressed in Sichuan.

The Sichuan soldiers not only completely withdrew from the border of Hanzhong, but also took more than ten prefectures and counties by the instructor. It is also the instructor who has been carefully investigating the military situation in Gansu and Shaanxi all summer, and he has not made up his mind to fight in Sichuan, otherwise the sword gate may be taken by Chen Qi.

By this time, the whole world had seen clearly the weakness of the Manchus.

From the end of last year to July and August this year, Chen Han did not launch a large-scale offensive against the outside world for most of the year, but what did the Manchu Qing themselves take the opportunity to do in these six months?

In addition to strengthening the defense of the coastal areas of Liaodong, greatly benefiting the Northeast Pass, and then continuing to squeeze Korea, in addition to raising bannermen and supporting officials and raising the army, the money and food available is to expand the new army again and wantonly make guns, but the Manchu Qing Dynasty in the northwest, Shandong, the Central Plains, Liaodong, and Korea have not changed much, and the war situation has not changed for the better.

The new army of the Eight Banners in the hands of Emperor Qianlong has grown to almost 50,000 people, and in addition to the Eight Banners of Manchuria, Mongolia and Mongolia, a large number of Han army flags have also been included. But the most well-equipped and highest-willed army unit in the hands of the Manchu Qing was used more by Qianlong for the defense of Liaodong and Beijing and Tianjin, rather than for going out to fight. Only a small part of them were put on the battlefield in the Central Plains by Qianlong, and some were transferred to Shandong by him. In the northwest, where the situation is turbulent, neither the green nor the local Han people have rebelled, and Qianlong is even more looking forward to seeing them contain each other, so that it will not pose a big threat to the Manchus. Instead of forceful repression, the prestige of the central government was erected.

Qianlong knew very well that the great showdown between the Manchus and the Han was not far off. Chen Han will not leave too much time for Da Qingguo, and it is Chen Han's best choice to overturn Beijing in one go. Therefore, before this big war came, he tried his best to hold the elite in his hands, instead of scattering to the northwest. But in the eyes of the courtiers and gentry, this practice was too demoralizing.

When the time entered August, the flooding in the south was eliminated, and this year the south was well weathered, although the sticky pole was also busy, but only caused some skin damage, but they themselves showed a lot of traces.

The Manchu Qing Dynasty's sticky pole used the 'people's heart' to stir up trouble in the Chen and Han ruled areas at the earliest, because many local gentry and landlords still hoped that the 'imperial court' could fight back, so the sticky pole developed very rapidly. But now the Manchus don't want to fight back, they can keep half of the country in the north, everything will be fine, and the gentry and landlords on the local area who are sticky on the sticky pole do not know how many people regret it, but it is too late to regret it.

If the Manchus could cheer up and fight with the Han army for a few battles, they could still give confidence to the gentry and landlords who couldn't get off the thief ship, but the Manchus didn't. Not only did they not cheer up on the battlefield, this year's Manchu Qing was also preparing to make a bigger article than last year when the flood of the rainy season came. Many local gentry and squires reported the matter to the Chen Han government, whether they found it in conscience or felt that the matter was very important, they took this opportunity to report and surrender, which was a great achievement, and they could atone for their sins.

Anyway, from the end of May to the middle of June, the sticky rod of the Manchu Qing Dynasty failed to make a few ghosts, but instead leaked a lot of manpower, and many people were caught by Chen Hanshunteng.

Of course, a tense atmosphere is also rising in the land of Huanghuai.

"Who knows if there will be a big flood next year? The Yangtze River is no more peaceful than the Yellow River. ”

In front of a big map, Chen Ming stood beside his father, and the whip in his hand pointed at northern Jiangsu and Shandong. Natural disasters and man-made disasters, the absence of man-made disasters does not mean that there will be no natural disasters, "It would be a pity not to take advantage of the good time of the year to fight in the north." ”

"Only in northern Jiangsu, Shandong, and in the northwest?" Chen Hui remembered that when Zheng Chenggong went on the Northern Expedition more than 100 years ago, he went north from the coast of Fujian all the way to Nanjing.

"This is no farther from the Yangtze River to Beijing than from Fujian to Nanjing." Chen Hui muttered in his heart.

Chen Mingjiao's whip point was in Shandong, and then moved to Beijing and Tianjin, "Of course, the attack on Beijing is by sea. There are too many variables on land. "The vast North China Plain is full of good battlefields for cavalry galloping, starting from Henan, fighting the Yellow River, and then hitting Beijing, not only to take Luoyang, to kill the threat in the northwest, but also to prevent the eight paths of Taihang along the way. And then there is a supply line of one or two thousand miles before and after, which is simply a 'feast' for the Manchu cavalry.

"Let's take Shandong first, and then Beijing next year. Shandong has four groups of people from the Qingshui Sect and the Mixed Yuan Sect, even if they have been trapped in the mountains for the past two years, their strength is no longer comparable to the beginning, and it is reasonable to have forty or fifty thousand soldiers who can fight. After our army landed in Jiaozhou, it echoed with the things of their generation, and it was easy to sweep through Shandong. "Even the garrison of Shandong is ready.

Although Liu Song and Fan Mingde of the Mixed Yuan Sect were still a little arrogant and small in the early days, they were surrounded by the Qing army and regimental training in Shandong in the mountains of southwest Shandong in the past two years, and no matter how much ambition they had, they had already been beaten away by the wind and rain.

As long as they join them, the Fu Han army will be able to get their command, forty or fifty thousand combatable soldiers, and then a little reorganization, at least the garrison of Shandong will be there.

The current situation is different from that of the late Qing Dynasty and the late Qing Dynasty, there is no external threat, the Manchu and Han disputes occupy the main body of contradictions in the whole world, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty has lost Beijing when they enter the customs, what capital can they have to continue to command the world and continue to claim to be orthodox and orthodox?

Or Qianlong couldn't get out of Beijing alive at all.

Although the dark camp has turned into a low-key in the past two years in Beijing, but the infiltration of the Manchu officialdom has always been consistent, according to the heart, the current Qianlong Emperor's body is not as good as before, although his complexion is ruddy, but the healthy complexion is not commensurate with his old demeanor and thin body, and it is very likely to be pretentious. Even in the Old Summer Palace, he had to take a ride to see the Queen Mother.

Jiuzhou Qingyan and Changchun Immortal Pavilion are very, very close.

Qianlong, who had dry bones in the mound, might have been hit hard and hung up directly.

"The money and grain of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion are enough to support the northwest, and then start fighting in Shandong."

"The combat strength this time does not need too much, only two brigades each of the 1st Garrison Division and the 2nd Garrison Division, plus the Guards Brigade and accompanying artillery."

"The Metropolitan Governor's Office has gathered more than 500 ships in Shanghai, Ningbo, and Zhoushan, and has also found foreigners to contact eight galleons that want to stay in China for the New Year." The transport capacity is sufficient.

"Is there enough to protect the sailor?" Chen Hui also knew a lot about the situation of the navy and army, but he didn't know some details until he received a detailed plan from the Metropolitan Governor's Office.

"Didn't we buy a batch of Western-style sailboats with foreigners? Now that the ships are all in place, the sailors who had gone to Europe with the Swedes have all returned. ”

"With Wusong Shui Shi as the main combat force, and with this batch of new hands, it is enough to guard."

The five army brigades and artillery units did not need to be transported to Shandong all at once, and Chen Ming did not need 30,000 people to kill a small Jiaozhou if he wanted to capture a small Jiaozhou. Besides, in addition to Jiaozhou, the fixed land scheduled by Chen Ming, the Fu Han army also had two footholds in Shandong: Yantai and Miaodao Islands. There will be no main force there, but there will be partial divisions landing. If the soldiers and horses there fight well, there will be a team landing in Laizhou Bay in the next step.

This in itself was a plan of attack hatched by the Grand Governorate, and if the timing was not bad, it would have taken place in July. It's just that I didn't expect the move of the capital to be delayed a bit, and it was postponed from July to August.

"The General Staff of the Battle Plan has been drawn up and is making final revisions. It will be delivered the day after tomorrow. If I can, at the beginning of the second month, I will raise troops to the north! "The entire battle plan did not use many troops, and the large-scale landing operation of the Fu Han Army was already in place when it went down to Lingnan.

In addition, the dark camp in Shandong and the four-way soldiers and horses, this time Shandong is completely ripe fruit, and it can be reached easily. (To be continued.) )
