Chapter 468: The Concubine restores the capital
Sun Youguang, the governor of Shangnan, was the son of Sun Degong.
In the second year of Tianqi in the Ming Dynasty, the Later Jin Nurhaci led his army across the Liaohe River. The Ming army retreated without support. The Later Jin army chased to Xizhibao. The defending general Luo Yiguan would rather die than surrender, and wait for assistance. The Later Jin army broke through the fort, and Luo and the defenders died in battle.
At that time, the Ming court ordered Guangning guerrilla Sun Degong. General Qi Bingzhong and general Zu Dashou and general Liu Qu of Zhenwubao led an army of 30,000 to aid. They were ambushed by the Later Jin army at Pingyang Bridge. General Liu Qu and others were killed in battle. Sun Degong secretly surrendered to the Later Jin fled back to Guangning. Zu Dashou fled to Danghua Island, and all the reinforcements were killed and injured.
After Sun Degong returned to Guangning, he spread the poor city everywhere, which made the people in Guangning city frightened. Later, he led the scholars and people out of Changgang, three miles east of Guangning, and rode cars, set up drums and music, held flags and buckles, and welcomed Nurhaci to the governor's office. The scholars and people all fell down and shouted long live.
At this point, the Ming Dynasty fell in Guangning, the last important town outside the pass, and Nurhaci gave Sun Degong to the third-class Meilezhangjing. Later, Sun Degong died, and his title was inherited by his eldest son, Sun Youguang. Sun Sic, another brother of Sun Youguang, is now the escort of Prince Li's mansion.
Sun Youguang was conquered Shanxi from Prince Ying Ajige. After the Qing army invaded Xi'an, he was transferred to the governor of Shaanxi Meng Qiaofang and became the garrison commander of Shangnan. Meng Qiaofang planned to submit the Ministry of War to the deputy general of Shangluo.
Before Shangnan, there was another fort named Fushui Fort. This place was actually the only place to pass from Shangluo to Henan. The grain and grass transported by the army from Xi'an to Henan in the previous period were all transported through Fushui Fort. There were more than 400 Han army's inlaid white flag soldiers in the fort.
The reason for the scarcity of troops stationed in Henan and Nanyang was successively occupied by the Qing army. Therefore, even if it is a key transportation location on the junction of the two provinces, in the eyes of the Qing army, Fushui Fort is the rear area, so there is no need to stay many soldiers.
After Yuan Zongdi left the team and entered Nanyang to gather the scattered troops of the Shun Army, Lu Si immediately led the remaining 6,000 soldiers to quickly pass through the southern end of Henan Prefecture, without any delay on the way except for necessary rest.
Liu Tichun, a general of the Shun Army, was worried that the Qing army might have heavy troops to guard the Shangluo Food Road, but Lu Si held the opposite view, believing that the Qing army could not have stayed in the Shangluo area, because in that case, their troops would not be enough.
To put it more vividly, the Qing army is as strong as the Japanese army in Lu Si’s previous life, but they all have one common weakness, that is, the fewer the troops, so the more fierce the main force attacks in the front, the more empty the rear, and they can only rely on a large number of puppet troops to maintain their rule.
Now, due to the emergence of Lu Si and the Huai Army, the Green Camp soldiers who were willing to be the puppet army were still in their infancy, with a maximum of 70,000 to 80,000, instead of the millions in Lu Si's previous life. Moreover, the main forces of the Green Camp Liu Zeqing and Gao Jie's troops are now all Huai Army.
Since the biggest weakness of the Qing Dynasty was there, Lu Si must take advantage of it.
In other words, if you are braver, you should also take bigger steps.
Facts verified Lu Si's judgment.
Two days ago, Li Yuanyin, who was the vanguard of the entire army, and more than 900 people from Bai Minghe's troops attacked Fushui Castle.
Late at night, Li Yuanyin led 40 death warriors to climb the wall of Fushui Castle with ropes. The Han army in the Inlaid White Banner who guarded Fushui Castle was not afraid of being dispersed by Li Yuanyin and others holding long swords in their hands.
After the fort gate opened, Bai Minghe led the rest of the soldiers to bravely attack.
However, when the Han army in the fort heard the shouts and killings, they didn't know how many enemies came, and they were defeated in panic. By dawn, the coalition forces wiped out 412 defenders of Fushui Fort, captured more than a thousand civilians and transported more than 100,000 stones of food and grass from Xi'an.
The food storage in Fushuibao allowed the Shunhuai coalition forces, which were about to be out of food, to have a full meal, and also completely fell down the big stone in Lu Si's heart.
During the rest, Lu Si got a news from the civil servants that a few days ago, there was a large group of Qing army artillery soldiers in Fushui Castle. I heard that it was the artillery team of the Zhishun King's army. They stayed in Fushui Castle for a few days because of the muddy roads on rainy roads. They only set off after the rain stopped yesterday.
Bai Minghe, who learned about this news, and Liu Tichun and other Shun Army generals were very anxious. They all said that if the Tartar artillery was transported over, the Xinye City Wall would definitely not be able to withstand it.
The anxious Bai Minghe even proposed that he would lead the soldiers of the Shun Army to Nanyang immediately, even if he could not escape the siege of Xinye, he would still catch up with the Qing army artillery team.
However, Lu Si became tough and refused Bai Minghe's request, and asked Li Cuiwei to support his male player.
"Shang Kexi's artillery team set out from Xi'an as early as March. Why did it only come out of Fushui Castle yesterday? This rain fell three days ago. Was the road difficult to walk before?"
The family of the four generals of Lu, Shang Kexi, was captured by his Huai Army, and Gu Junen went to persuade Shang Kexi to tell the truth about Bai Minghe, Liu Tichun and other generals.
"The reason why I did not let Mianhou and Mr. Gu tell you about this is because I am afraid that the matter will be leaked." Lu Si said frankly.
"Huaihou was very considerate!"
Liu Tichun pulled Bai Minghe and sat down. They were loyal to His Majesty, but who dared to say that the people below were the same. What if a traitor leaked the matter out, what if it was a big deal?
"If Mr. Gu can say that the rebellion is still good, it doesn't matter whether this artillery team is not there or not. In addition, Mian Hou has entered Nanyang to gather the defeated troops. After hearing the news, the Qing army will definitely make some arrangements. Even if this Hou lets you three thousand troops pass by, there will be no benefit in the overall situation. But if you can act with this Hou, it will play a big role."
Lu Si said a plan that he had been thinking about for a long time, which was to continue to go deep into Shangluo along the Fushui Castle and then recover the Dashun capital Xi'an.
"Regain Xi'an?!"
All the generals were surprised. This was a bold decision, but could they rely on these six thousand people to do it?
"I didn't know something happened in Fushuibao in Shangnan. I wanted some soldiers to shave their hair and braids to pretend to be Qing army to start Shangnan. Our troops were mainly cavalry. After seizing Nan Shang, they went straight to Shangzhou without stopping. The Qing army there would not have thought that they would take Xi'an. The Qing court was not only unstable in Shaanxi, but also in the Ajige army would not be stable."
Lu Si made an appropriate analogy. At present, the main force of Dashun was divided into two groups by the Qing army, and the two groups were far apart and could not echo each other.
But isn't the same in the Qing army at this time?
In the history of previous life, because of the success or failure of Li on the East Road, Li and Gao on the West Road collectively withdrew from the stage of "competition for hegemony" and became the anti-Qing forces used by the Nanming. In the end, they were exhausted because of the stupidity of Nanming.
Now the Qing army itself has formed two major groups in the south and north, and the southern Ajige group accounts for two-thirds of the main force of the Qing army. The remaining one-third of the North Road Group not only needs to defend the capital, but also control Shanxi, Shaanxi and Liaodong. Where did they get their troops?
There must be no soldiers in Xi'an.
The Qing army that captured Xi'an was the main force of the Manchu and Han army led by Ajige and Duoduo. Most of the green camp soldiers such as Jiang Guan and Tang Tong were in the Shaanxi-Gansu area. With the actual strength of the Qing army, it was impossible for them to leave heavy troops in Xi'an!
There are at least four benefits to conquer Xi'an.
First, we obtained millions of stones of military rations that Tian Jianxiu did not burn at the beginning;
Second, you can attract Li Guo and the senior high school senior department;
The third is to make Shaanxi and Gansu turmoil again, so that another main force of the Green Camp in the future, the Shaanxi and Gansu soldiers were removed from the list of puppet troops.
