Using the advantages of the navy, the Manchu lair, directly turned upside down. Strategically, the Qing Dynasty could definitely disrupt the situation, and even achieve the effect of "closing the door and fighting dogs", which was absolutely feasible in tactics.

Liaodong is vast, and it is impossible to set up defenses with the Qing army's more than 10,000 left-behind forces. They can only focus on protection with Shengjing as the center, which gives the Huai Army an opportunity to take advantage of.

If the Qing army left behind the pass divided its troops to guard it, the Huai army, which crossed the sea, could also gain a local advantage in military strength. Just like Shandong now, the Qing army had an absolute advantage, but was suppressed and attacked by the Huai army in Shandong.

Historically, the Qing army relied on military rations from Liaodong in the early days of entering the pass. They did not receive sufficient food supply in Gyeonggi and Beizhi, because the Qing army's several entry into the pass and Li Zicheng's eastern expedition had already turned the prosperous Beizhi and Jinggi areas into ruins.

Among them is the raging plague.

It turned out that Beijing had a population of millions, but now it probably won’t exceed 200,000.

In essence, the results achieved by the Qing army were similar to those of the Huai army. They occupied the territory, but they had very little gains. Shandong was not much better than the Beizhi area.

The advantage of both sides is that the Qing army had a solid base in Liaodong, and the Huai army had Huaiyang, the third richest place in China.

In the previous life of Lu Si, the southern expedition of Duodou tribe in October was to plunder the money and grain of Jiangnan to support this war to conquer China.

However, the luck of the Qing Dynasty was really good. The Ming army went south and fell down. It took no effort to get Jiangnan and resolved the imminent food shortage.

Now Shandong is occupied by the Huai Army, and the Shun Army launches a counterattack in Henan and Shanxi. Based on the current situation in the Beizhi region, Lu Si estimates that the Qing army must be short of food now, but there is still some time before the food is cut off.

Transporting grain from Liaodong to Beijing is a huge project with more consumption than income!

Even when the Ming Dynasty was in the past, it was the whole country's strength that relied on to maintain the Guanjin defense line. In the middle and late Chongzhen, Shen Tingyang was the "trader" responsible for transporting grain from the Jianghuai River to Liaodong.

Then, if you can transport grain to Songshan, you can transport troops to Jinzhou.

Crossing the sea to Liaodong to fight the grass valley of the Qing Dynasty, harass their rears, and turning their originally stable base into a rotten beach is undoubtedly a good way to effectively damage the Qing army.

"It's a good idea, but can the Seventh Town take on this important task?"

Lu Si decided to send troops to Liaodong, but whether the seventh town in the miscellaneous brand could be competent was a big problem.

"After the Seventh Town captured Dengzhou, its headquarters had been expanded by more than 20,000. From soldiers to officers, they were almost all green forest heroes in Shandong, and there were many people who fled from Liaodong, and this Liaodong was originally the territory of Shandong Dusi."

Jia Hanfu, who was responsible for the temporary operation of the "Governor's Office", must have a very clear understanding of the situation of Di Seventh Town. On the second day of October, Di Seventh Town reported the victory to the Di Seventh Town, saying that it had seized Dengzhou, but Chen Jin, the governor of Denglai of the Qing Dynasty, escaped on a sea boat.

Li Huajing, the commander of the town, is indeed very famous in Shandong Green Forest. As a result, on the way to march towards Dengzhou, the local bandits of the seventh town came to rely on the horses and green forests. As a result, the seventh town continued to expand its capacity. Now there are probably no less than 27,000 people, including five or six thousand horses and more than 3,000 horses and armor.

The second town of the Huai Army, under the command of the town commander Zuo Pan An, had captured Lingshan Guards. Now the fourth brigade of Cheng Sihua in the town was advancing towards Laiyang and Weihai Guards.

After Chen Jin fled to the sea, Jiaodong area is now the only deputy general Ke Yongsheng appointed by the Qing Dynasty to occupy the Weihaiwei area, but he only has three or two thousand mobs under his command, and it is unlikely that it will surrender to the Huai Army in the future.

In addition, Xia Chengde, the general of Yizhou appointed by Wang Aoyong, the former governor of Shandong in Qing Dynasty, has recently led more than 2,000 troops from his troops to the Shandong meeting Chen Buping.

Jia Hanfu's opinion was that there were three benefits to attacking Liaodong by the Seventh Town crossing the sea. The first was that Liaodong was under the jurisdiction of Shandong Dusi in the Ming Dynasty, so it was natural for Shandong people to cross the sea to recover Liaodong.

Second, although the seventh town has low combat effectiveness and complex troops, it is mostly caused by local gangs and horse robbers, it is because of the large number of people. Sending them to Liaodong to fight can exert their strengths in horse robbery, which makes the Qing army in Liaodong exhausted.

The third is that the seventh town can be tempered through crossing the sea.

Of course, this is what is meant on the surface, but in fact what Jia Hanfu wants to say is the meaning of the big waves and slaughtering sand.

After all, this Seventh Town is too complicated, and it is said that the military discipline is not very good.

It is good to let them go to Liaodong and win, but they lose and suffer huge losses, which is not a bad thing for the Huai Army headquarters.

With the end of the Jiaodong war, if the Huai Army wanted to continue to maintain "sovereignty" over the Seventh Town and make the Seventh Town obey the Governor's Office, it would inevitably supply the Seventh Town's money and grain to constrain its military discipline.

Nearly 30,000 people, how much does it cost to spend?

To restrain military discipline, how many of these gangs of horse thieves who are used to robbing families in the green forests of the rivers and lakes can be subject to the constraints?

The Denglai area is better than Jinan and Dezhou, but after the Kong Youde mutiny and the Qing army plunder, it is really necessary to raise the Seventh Town, to put it bluntly, it is the big burden of the Huai Army.

Therefore, it is better to send them to Liaodong.

"I still believe in Li Huajing, and I believe that the Seventh Town is loyal to me. Let the Seventh Town cross the sea to Liaodong, but I have to give the Seventh Town a big gift."

Lu Sida waved his hand and asked Jia Han to record again, but he allocated 150 captured Qing army artillery to the Seventh Town, including 10 red barbarian artillery. The captured Han army gunners transferred 300 people to strengthen the Seventh Town, so that the Seventh Town had the ability to attack.

"I immediately sent a letter to Shen Tingyang, and asked his navy to arrive in Dengzhou after receiving the letter, to transport the Seventh Town to southern Liaoning, and to set up a port on Pidao, the former Ming Dynasty Dongjiang Town, to ensure that the Seventh Town fights in Liaodong."

In the military orders given to Li Huajing, Lu Si's measures were quite vague. He only said that he was cheap and did not explain where the food and grass in the Seventh Town were allocated and where it was supplied.

He also said that the Liao people should gather under the Huai Army's banner as much as possible. If they cannot, they should do their best to destroy Liaodong's production capacity.

How to do it, Li Huajing himself will control the degree, and Lu Si will not make it clear.

"Tell Li Huajing that he would cross the sea to Liaodong is not to ask him to be cannon fodder for me, Lu Wenzong, but to be a big use! I will give him a title of a man, two marquis, and three uncles. Whether he can be a real title depends on his ability."

Lu Si patted the board and crossed the sea and Liaodong to make a final decision.

After the seventh town crossed the sea, Jiaodong was temporarily fully responsible for the second town. Lu Si was preparing to go to Jinan to discuss the governance of Shandong and the integration of the Huai Army.

Just now, the matter of crossing the sea battle was decided, but Xuzhou urgently delivered the emergency documents sent by Jingning.

There are three letters in total.

The first letter was from my nephew Guangyuan, which stated that the Ming army in Huaixi had recently invaded Huaiyang.

The second letter was a secret letter from Emperor Hongguang of the Ming Dynasty. In the letter, it hoped that Lu Wenzong could ask for a title to the Nandu in a request, saying that as long as the letter of entrustment arrived, he would be appointed as a prince, and the troops of Huaiyang, Xulu could be called the emperor's personal army.

The third letter was written by Sun Wujin, and the letter said that Nandu's hanging gowns have few heads.
