Chapter 108 Put the facts and reason
Not long ago, Chen Kai received news that when he was traveling in the southeast last year, the head of the fourth battalion of Yama Luo General and the Jiulong Battalion, which were transferred in to repel the Qing army, were annihilated by the Qing army in Shaozhou Prefecture, Guangdong, so he promoted the fourth battalion of Yama Luo General
Luo Rong, the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army, and Ning Wenlong, the commander-in-chief of the Kowloon Battalion, were both missing from the formation.
The Qing army's suppression of the three provincial capitals was in name only because the Qing army in Fujian was strongly restrained by Zheng Chenggong. However, the Qing army in southern Jiangxi was already one of the few elite troops in Jiangxi, even though it had deployed many generals who were good at fighting.
They entered Guangdong and cooperated with Shang Kexi to suppress the Ming army. The Qing government also attached great importance to the important position there. Therefore, when the Qing army in southern Jiangxi attacked in large numbers, the head of the fourth battalion of General Yan Luo and the Jiulong battalion were unable to retreat from the enemy, or even hold on.
They could only fight and leave, and fight elsewhere. Little by little, under the encirclement and interception of the Qing army in southern Jiangxi, they became farther and farther away from the main force of the Jiangxi Ming army in Guangxin Prefecture. Finally, after moving thousands of miles, they fought for the Qing army.
Annihilated.
Chen Kai didn't know if all this happened earlier or later than in history, and he also didn't know if they had a chance to go south to join the Fujian Ming army in southern Fujian and eastern Guangdong on their way to the west, but he very
What is clear is that the destruction of this elite Jiangxi Ming army means that the Jiangxi anti-Qing movement is about to fall to a new low.
"Ma Jinbao..."
Jinhua's general, Jinhua, should have been transferred by Chen Jin to relieve the siege of Zhangzhou Fucheng after the Battle of Jiangdong Bridge. Instead, he was deceived into the city by Zheng Chenggong and became the same thorn in the urn as the Zhangzhou defenders.
Probably because the Ming army in Jiangxi could not be solved for a long time, the Qing government had to do this, and the rapid attack on Zhangzhou Fucheng also made him lose the opportunity to go in and become a turtle. According to Jie Chongxi's letter brought back by the messenger at the same time,
The Jiangxi Ming Army was very uncomfortable facing the fierce attacks from the two southern green battalions, Jiangxi Tibiao and Jinhua Zhenbiao, and had abandoned many camps and checkpoints. Perhaps even this army still held firm in Guangxin Prefecture.
I am afraid that the main force of the Jiangxi Ming Army stationed in the fields will also have their days numbered.
Chen Kai did not say much about the unfavorable situation of the Jiangxi Ming Army in Guangxin Prefecture. He only reported the news of the destruction of the Fourth Battalion of General Yama and the Jiulong Battalion. All the Jiangxi scholars present felt as if they were mourning for their heirs. Even if one of them
Most people have never met these two commanders, but they are still traumatized by the destruction of this elite force of the Jiangxi Ming Army.
"...The death of Governor Luo and Governor Ning in battle is certainly a great loss for the imperial court, but because of this, we must inherit their legacy and work hard to regain Jiangxi and the homeland of the Han family!"
"What Chen Daotai said is absolutely true. There have been too many victims. Those students of the same year, those Shangguan, marshals, and fellow villagers in Jiangxi. They all faced the brutal Tatars but did not show any signs of death.
Retreating and fighting to the last moment are all about fighting to the death. The army leader said that we are here to learn from Chen Daotai. We must not be discouraged now, but we must work hard to learn from Chen Daotai!"
At this moment, the middle-aged Confucian scholar who was the oldest in the group raised his arms and shouted, everyone was excited, and some even directly paid homage to Chen Kaixing.
The relationship between teachers and students was a big killer in ancient times. Most of the Donglin Party, Qi Party, Chu Party and others started like this. When one person salutes, everyone else does the same. This is not only about the relationship between teachers and students, but also more importantly.
Or do they hope that relying on the relationship between teachers and students, they can learn more knowledge from Chen Kai that can be used to restore Jiangxi Province. This was something they had discussed early on the road.
It may seem ridiculous at first for a group of students, or even a whole group of students, to kneel down and worship a poor boy. However, Chen Kai has a great reputation and his abilities are rare among civil servants in the dynasties since Jiashen. To such a person
There is nothing to be ashamed of if you become a disciple of a person with outstanding talents.
The middle-aged Confucian scholar was the leader. Chen Kai just remembered that this person's surname was Zou Mingtong, who was from Jishui, Jiangxi. He was related to the Zou family of Xiaodongmen, Jishui, who had produced Zou Yuanbiao, the leader of the Donglin Party.
This relative is too far away to be seen, and it may not be easy to find common ancestors through the genealogy of both parties.
However, it is undeniable that this person is indeed a smart man, and he knows exactly what to do when. At this moment, Chen Kai accepted this kindness and accepted these students. With the teacher-student relationship, when they looked at Chen Kai again
, the things in his eyes became very different from before.
Next, Chen Kai began to describe the current situation to the Jiangxi scholars present. The Ming army was aggressively attacking cities and territories on the battlefield in southern Fujian, and it also withstood the fierce attack of the Jingnan vassal soldiers on the battlefield in Guangdong;
As Chongxi had predicted in front of him, the Zhejiang Ming Army was almost destroyed and was now under the banner of the Fujian Ming Army; as for the Jiangxi Ming Army, it was on the verge of destruction.
"...In Jiangxi, the situation of being outnumbered and outnumbered has never changed. The King's Division can hold out in Guangxin Prefecture. This is a long-term solution. However, it is extremely difficult for the King's Division to break through the encirclement with the help of the local King's Division alone.
Apart from other things, the most important strength of King Wang's army in Jiangxi is not the army and the many people who follow the army, but the gentry and common people scattered in various prefectures and counties. The vast majority of them are loyal to King's army.
With their support, Wang Shi's movements were clear to Wang Shi; the grain, grass and weapons that Wang Shi lacked were also collected and transported by gentry and common people from all over the country. Even at the risk of destroying their families, they would not change their original intention.
, and this is what the people of Jiangxi are most worthy of our admiration for!"
Following the pride that these Jiangxi students are most proud of, everyone here will naturally be more accepting. As Chen Kai talked, at the same time, Chen Kai asked everyone present to talk about some of their
After this interaction, they felt that what Chen Kai told them was the truth without any mistakes.
People will believe the answer they are willing to believe. When Chen Kai was in the workplace, he really didn’t have too much contact with people’s hearts. Now he was encouraged, inspired, and even followed what they said, and he got it easily.
These people have a deeper level of trust. What I will talk about next, I believe it will be easier for them to accept it.
"However, the Tatars are not stupid. There are also many talented and unscrupulous scum in the imperial court who advise the Tatars. They have clearly seen the reliance and advantages of the king. What is more important is that the Tatars are originally bloodthirsty and cruel.
Their nature makes them want to massacre those gentry and common people who are loyal to Master Wang wherever they go, even those who have never interacted with Master Wang, just to attack Master Wang’s influence in various prefectures in Jiangxi
The foundation of the people's support in the county. Without people, everything is dead. The support that Master Wang can get will be less and less, and the advantages that the Tatars already have will become bigger and bigger, until they completely crush Master Wang.
That day.”
At this point, many people seemed to be silently contemplating, many of them showing signs of pain, and many who had witnessed the tragedy directly nodded, expressing their most direct agreement with Chen Kai's views.
Most of these are what Chen Kai has witnessed along the way, and there are also original memories among them. The two are integrated into the "Inspection of the Anti-Qing Movement in Jiangxi", and all his remarks at the moment have the most practical theoretical basis!
"Unless there is another Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren, given the current situation, Jiangxi will rely more on the king's division in neighboring provinces to recover, and it is difficult to say whether the local king's division in Jiangxi can sustain it until that day. As for the current deployment of the Tatars
, Jiangxi Admiral Liu Guangbi, Jiujiang Commander-in-Chief Yang Jie and South-Ganxi Commander-in-Chief Hu Yousheng, these three guys with heavy troops, who can have the courage of Jin Shenghuan, aren't they all just a bunch of Tatar minions?"
"However, if Jiangxi wants to recover, it can only rely on the kings of neighboring provinces, which is too passive. So I, Chen Kai, asked Governor Jie for the princes, hoping that they can learn relevant knowledge and return to
In their respective hometowns, use this knowledge to gather more power under the eyes of the Tatars and make more preparations for the future of Wangshi and the future of Jiangxi."
"When everything is ready, if great changes occur in Jiangxi itself, the princes can use this power to set off turbulent waves and overthrow the tyrannical rule of the Tatars in Jiangxi; if no great changes occur in Jiangxi, the princes will continue to accumulate strength and wait for neighboring countries.
