Chapter 127 Here to persuade you to come in again

Battle of Nanchang.

The Ming army achieved an unprecedented victory.

More than 10,000 people were killed on the battlefields of the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp and the Baoyi Army.

The rest all surrendered.

In addition, Qianlong did not even dare to stay in the south of the Yangtze River. Instead, he took a boat across the north of the Yangtze River and temporarily stopped in Yangzhou, fearing to go south.

at the same time.

Zhu Daohua from Nanchang City who just walked in got the news.

The railway from Nanxiong Prefecture to Nanzhuang Prefecture has been completed!

The first batch of twenty iron-framed and wooden-hulled steamships has been transported to Nanzhuang Mansion via railway and has been assembled. They will soon sail down the Gan River and arrive in Nanchang.

Zhu Daohua was overjoyed when he got the news.

You can order the establishment of the Yangtze River Navy, use the Yangtze River Navy to sweep the Yangtze River waterways, drive the Qing army's Yangtze River Navy to the north bank, and force them to burn their warships.

As a result, the main channel of the Yangtze River was firmly controlled by the Ming army.

Through water transportation, the Ming army dispatched ten brigades of about 40,000 people and deployed defenses along the south bank of the Yangtze River. Their troops were directed at Jiangning Mansion, in a posture to attack Jiangning at any time.

The Jiangning Camp of the Qing Army stationed in Jiangning did not dare to act rashly, and Qianlong, who had just fled to Yangzhou, also had physical problems. He had a fever after entering the city. Fortunately, garlic medicine kept him from dying, but for the time being, the battlefield between the two sides

The confrontation above has come to an end.

Both sides need to repair themselves, accumulate strength, and prepare for the next round of confrontation and war.

On the one hand, Qianlong had to consider eliminating the impact of the defeat, and on the other hand, he also had to worry about the Ming army directly crossing the Yangtze River and marching northward.

On Zhu Daohua's side, he is considering taking all the south first, especially Jiangnan. He must not let the war spread in Jiangnan and destroy the economic environment of Jiangnan. On the other hand, he must consider how to deal with Zhejiang, Hubei, Yunnan, and Guizhou.

Large and small group training in four provinces.

Judging from the information sent by Jin Yiwei.

These local tycoons who controlled the local area gained power - or purchased power from Qianlong.

That's a real big deal.

Made a huge profit.

Payback is certain.

Many of them even got rich.

So if you want to make King Zhu Ming hold his nose and admit what these group training has gained, you must not do it.

Otherwise, all the wealth in these four provinces will belong to these local tyrants and evil gentry.

There are a myriad of things to deal with on both sides.

All of a sudden.

The two sides temporarily took Jiangning Prefecture as the core, and the Qing army relied on Jiangning City, Zhenjiang, Jiangyin and other fortresses to confront the Ming army.

The southern military front was suspended.

The whole of China is still at war.

Only Liu Zhixie's army of the King of Heaven was left, which was besieging Hanzhong Mansion.

"Judging from the intelligence coming from earlier, it is only a matter of time before Liu Zhixie's Heavenly King army breaks through Hanzhong, and then they will move from Hanzhong into the land of Shaanxi and Gansu, hoping to make Chang'an their capital."

Standing on the bow of the boat with Zhu Daohua is Gong Zhuman, the commander of Jinyi Guards.

Zhu Daohua had just returned after inspecting the situation on the Jiangning front line. The conclusion of the on-site inspection was that it was unrealistic to rely on traditional methods to break through Jiangning City.

So Zhu Daohua is now making two preparations.

On the one hand, Guangdong was asked to build larger-caliber cannons to ensure sufficient range and power to bombard the strong star fortresses outside Jiangning City, as well as deal with Jiangning City's final and tallest main city.

After all, this city was once the Nanjing Yingtianfu of the Ming Dynasty.

It was also an important hub city for the Qing Dynasty in ruling the south.

The defense system is not comparable to that of a small town like Ganzhou.

The Qing army deployed quite a lot of artillery here.

Although they are all cast iron cannons.

But relying on the city defense system, these cannons can still exert great power.

Zhu Daohua did not want to use his life to fill up this strong city.

So the other preparation is to figure out a political solution.

If it is clear that the two sides of the Qing Dynasty are going to stop fighting and have a truce, then there should indeed be a negotiation - Zhu Daohua also wants to ensure that Qianlong will not jump over the wall in a hurry and destroy the prosperous places such as Jiangning Mansion, Suzhou Mansion, and Yangzhou Mansion in the flames of war.

Therefore, when he returned to Nanchang this time, Zhu Daohua also summoned his important ministers in Guangzhou to come with him.

There is a railway connecting Nanxiong Prefecture and Nan'an Prefecture. Through waterways and railways, Guangdong and Jiangxi, and even Jiangnan, will become much closer.

Those who moved to Nanchang this time included all the important ministers of the Ming Dynasty cabinet.

If we take Jiangnan.

Then Guangzhou is not suitable as the capital.

Jiangning Mansion and Nanjing Yingtian Mansion in the former Ming Dynasty will become the official capital of the Ming Dynasty - this can be regarded as returning to the old capital.

In addition, Guangzhou’s role will not decline because of this.

Guangdong is the pioneer in developing colonies in Southeast Asia and the southern continent.

Therefore, Guangzhou's role is equally important.

In Zhu Daohua's vision, the future Ming Dynasty will have Tianfu in the center, Yanjing in the north, and Guangzhou in the south.

The south has to open up the southern hemisphere, and the north has to deal with northern Russia. At least it must firmly control Manchuria-this is an important granary for the red dynasty in later generations. Moreover, it must also control the outer northeastern part of the country, and immigrate from the Central Plains to colonize and colonize this area.

One of the best black soils in the world was developed.

Withdrawing his thoughts from future plans, Zhu Daohua refocused his attention on the land of Jiangnan.

The most important thing at the moment is to get everything south of the Yangtze River in hand first, and to prevent the White Lotus cult bandits from turning towards Hubei and Hunan. They must be driven away from Sichuan.

"With Chang'an as the capital? Now Qinchuan, which is thousands of miles away, can it still support an overlord?"

Zhu Daohua shook his head and said.

"Your Majesty, Liu Zhixie's envoy has arrived in Guangzhou. Do you want to meet him?"

Zhu Daohua shook his head when he heard this: "No need to meet, what a Heavenly King's Army, just a group of bandits. Let him go back and tell Liu Zhixie that the Solitary King can allow him to lead troops into Guanzhong, but Sichuan cannot give it to him. If he wants to occupy Sichuan

, the lonely king sent an army of 100,000 to drive him away personally!"

For Zhu Daohua.

There is no need to worry about a group of bandits who have entered Guanzhong for the time being.

But Sichuan cannot be occupied by this group of bandits under any circumstances.

In fact, the land of Sichuan is not occupied by the White Lotus Sect.

Because the White Lotus Sect is a rogue bandit, they have basically swept away the population and wealth of other places except Chengdu Prefecture.

There are more than 10,000 Sichuan Green Camps stationed in Chengdu Prefecture, and there are also Sichuan Army Corps training established after Dong Gao arrived in Sichuan, so they have not been conquered yet, but the towns and counties around Chengdu Prefecture have been attacked by the White Lotus Sect.

Therefore, in the Chengdu Plain in Sichuan, except for Chengdu City, the land outside is now in a state of "ownerless".

It hit so many feet.

Zhu Daohua just lacked land to reward his merits.

The landlords in Jingzhou, Xiangyang, and Sichuan were all killed by the White Lotus Sect.

And it also took away a lot of people.

There is a lot of free land.

These lands are the greatest wealth.

Therefore, Zhu Daohua will never allow the White Lotus Sect to stay in Sichuan, they must leave.

Otherwise he doesn't mind driving them away by force.

The wooden-hulled iron-clad steamship Zhu Daohua was riding went up the Gan River and passed by the heavy sails. The steam ship had sufficient power and was faster than the sailing ship that went down the river to transport supplies and ammunition to the Ming army on the Jiangning front line.

soon.

The steamer rumbled close to the Ganjiang Pier in Nanchang. Zhu Daohua stepped off the ship. Luo Fangbo, Gu Song, Qian Heng, Song Xiang, Ye Daoqi, Zhao Si, Zhang Hong, Napoleon and other civil and military ministers were already there to greet him.

.

Wait for Zhu Daohua to get off the boat.

All the ministers came up to salute and greet him.
