After the capital was moved to Beijing, it was certain that the political, military, and economic center of gravity would shift to the north, or to the Central Plains... But the change in the entire situation started in the south, and the breakthrough point was the Zheng family in Annan.
As the only Annan Zheng clan on the Indo-China Peninsula that could cause some trouble for the Ming army, if they were destroyed, the Ming army would have their hands and feet free. I really can’t imagine the situation of hundreds of thousands of troops rushing towards Liaodong again. What’s more, this time
The war would also relieve the Ming Dynasty's tight finances, obtain a large area of land, and obtain a large amount of human and material resources, allowing the Ming Dynasty's comprehensive national strength to grow again.
Boom, boom, boom... Explosions came one after another. The warships lined up on the sea, took turns to sail into the seaport, and used their side string artillery to pour out shells with death whistles towards the Rili Sea Barrier.
Even though he was used to seeing battles, Wu Sangui was still shocked by the might of the navy on the sea. No wonder the emperor regarded the Annan Zheng family as a treasure, no wonder the Manchu Qing Dynasty was defeated from south to north. This attack from the sea was not only fierce, but also
And it's sudden and really difficult to prevent.
Under the fierce bombardment of naval gunfire, the forts of Rili City were destroyed one by one, bricks and stones were flying everywhere, and smoke and dust blocked the sun. The Ming army, which was covered by effective firepower, began to land and attacked upwards in units of small flags. Soon,
They seized the fortress in the shallow sea and attacked the interior along the fortress.
The Sun Li City Fortress was once a land Great Wall built by Nan Nguyen, spanning several miles of flat land between mountains and seas. Such sites are very rare in Vietnam, from the sea to the mountains. Relying on this city fortress, Nan Nguyen was able to withstand the attacks of Bei Zheng Da and several other cities.
For ten years.
It is precisely because of this terrain that as long as the Ming army occupied the Rili City Fortress, Annan was divided into two sections. One was the Annan originally occupied by the Zheng family, and the other was the southern Ruan Guangnan land occupied by the Zheng family. From this point
It seems that the Annan Zheng family defeated the Guangnan Ruan family and took over all the territory, but in fact it revealed a bigger flaw. The troops were dispersed and the area became narrower. The Ming army was seizing on the weaknesses, and then destroyed them one by one after separation.
.
It can mobilize up to 100,000 people, but the standing army is only more than 40,000. This is the military strength of the Annan Zheng family at this time. Obviously, under the situation where the strategic focus of the Ming Dynasty moved northward, the Ming army's attack was unexpected
, unreasonably, the Annan Zheng family also lost the opportunity to mobilize.
The battle at Nilei Haimen was not the whole battle to destroy the country. King Zheng Liu Ti Chun led his Suo army to land in Halong, attacked the sea defense, and then went up the river to capture Thang Long House (now Hanoi); Mengjin Marquis Wei Yong led the Annan garrison
, and the allied forces of Annan Capital Commander Sifu, went down the Red River from Yen Bai, and their target was also Thang Long Palace.
It can be said that even if the Rili city fortress could not be taken smoothly, the Zheng family of Annan would never be able to withstand the more than 100,000 tiger and wolf Ming troops.
Unlike Liaodong's prudent approach, Zhu Yongxing's purpose was clear: to use the shortest time and the most violent offensive to defeat the Zheng family in Annan and capture the city.
Obviously, Zhu Yongxing has made up his mind not to give any chance to the Zheng family in Annan, and to completely erase this small country from the map and turn it into the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, this may have to be a formality and help Houli transition into a puppet.
It will take a while, but the nature will not change.
In the field of vision, more and more Ming troops boarded the land, and the shouts of killing gradually faded away as the flag advanced. Wu Sangui nodded slightly. There was no doubt about victory. The entire Annan was divided into two parts, leaving only
They were destined to be annihilated one by one.
"Your Highness, Zheng won't jump over the wall and attack the Champa Kingdom, right?" Navy Commander Chen Mang stretched out his hand to help him and asked casually.
"Haha, that saves the court from making excuses." Wu Sangui waved his hand, held on to the mast to stand firm, and said with a smile: "The Champa Kingdom was weaker than Annan, but why didn't he be destroyed before? The emperor had great foresight. At that time, the country was not stable.
, if we attack the Kingdom of Champa and the troops are unknown, won't it cause fear in other vassal states? Now the country is basically stable, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty is shrinking to a corner, but it is just hanging on."
"So that's it." Chen Mang nodded in agreement, "Before, I couldn't take any action. Once Annan is destroyed and the city is captured, I will probably move my troops north to clear the caves of the Tartars and attack Huanglong."
"The navy may go north to help in the war; the army is probably unlikely to be transferred north again." Wu Sangui shook his head slightly and explained: "The Holy Spirit has made up his mind to resolve the war in the north with the troops from the north. The issue of money and food has already been resolved.
We need to start the war in Liaodong and collect grain in the northwest, leaving the army to fight in the south. Firstly, it is convenient to eat, and secondly, it can also use the seizure to ease the financial tension of the imperial court."
"So, Annan, there are still battles to be fought after occupying the city?" Chen Mang thought for a while and said uncertainly: "Zhenla? Burma? Or - Luzon?"
"Haha, I think it should be Burma." Wu Sangui swayed, and the boat had already docked at the pier. "Zhenla has surrendered, and its military strength is extremely weak. It can be destroyed at any time, so there is no rush. Luzon is too far away, crossing the ocean, and the risk is not high.
Little Myanmar, hehe, is not very reverent. First he detained the late emperor, and then he demanded money. I deeply hate him."
"Being deeply hated by Banzai, the future is not good!" Chen Mang smiled and shook his head. He didn't know whether he was really feeling sorry for Myanmar or not, and accompanied Wu Sangui off the boat.
The sea breeze is blowing, with a touch of salty smell. Standing on the city fortress, you can see the mountains in the distance and the undulating sea, which is very comfortable.
"Bei Zheng and Nan Ruan have fought several battles here. The Nan Ruan soldiers only have tens of thousands. Thanks to the beautiful weather, they have built two fortresses to compete with Bei Zheng." An intelligence agent sent by the Ministry of National Security told Wu Sangui and others
The author briefly explained, "According to intelligence, Zheng Gen, a member of the Northern Zheng clan, is now in Kontum. It is obviously too late to bring troops to help."
"Zheng Gen is also a figure, but it's a pity that he was born at the wrong time." Wu Sangui smiled faintly and said: "How many more troops can he have? The staff estimates that it is at most 20,000. There are more soldiers in Annan, but there are no generals.
, under the thunderous blow of my army, it will soon fall apart."
"The deadline for reporting to the court is one month. I think half a month is enough." The Syrian male Ma Weixing was quite confident in his troops and felt that he should take the initiative to directly destroy the army led by Zheng Genji. "It is better to leave a division here.
To defend, I led the other two divisions south to attack Zheng Gen, and destroyed Champa along the way."
"One month is not too much. You should be lenient when you anticipate the enemy!" Wu Sangui pondered for a moment and said: "The Duke is going south, so I'm afraid he's a little impatient. The south is blocked and the north is intercepted, and the relationship is not small. It's better to wait for the attack on Shuo's army.
As long as the news comes to Shenglong Mansion, everything will be settled."
Ma Weixing nodded helplessly, "Okay, I think it will only happen in the past few days. If there is a flanking attack from the north and the south, there is no reason why Shenglong Mansion cannot be captured."
……………
The Fa Shuo army secretly gathered in Qinzhou to defend the city. After receiving the order, they set off immediately and entered the Annan occupied area of the Ming army by land. First, they passed through Ha Long and Wang Mi, and together with a navy, they captured the outlet of the Red River.
, then proceed by land and water, and go straight to Shenglong Mansion.
The Ming army's large-scale attack caught the Annan army by surprise. In the battle of Jian'an, the Zheng army was defeated by Li Youde and Li Wenxiao's tribe. Zheng General Fan Biquan in Haiyang surrendered without a fight. Xing'an defeated Zheng army Tao Guangrao and Wu Wentian's tribe again. At this point, Thang Long Prefecture
There is no longer a barrier, exposed in front of the Ming army.
At this time, Zheng Zha of the Zheng family in Annan was on the throne, and he was named the Generalissimo Xi Wang. Facing the urgent reports coming from two directions, he was helpless. He called Zheng Gen to lead troops to return to the reinforcements. Obviously, the water far away could not quench the thirst nearby and he stuck to the city.
, and he didn’t have the confidence. The situation was so bad, but it also made Zheng Zha realize that this was different from the last crusade. This was to destroy the country! In desperation, Zheng Zha took his family members, hijacked Hou Li Shenzong, and
Under the protection of a group of royal guards, he escaped from Sheng Long Mansion in panic and went south to meet Zheng Gen.
In fact, Zheng Zha was committing suicide by doing this. He didn't know that the Ming army had occupied the Rili city fortress, so he was just hitting the muzzle of the gun!
When Fa Shuo's army entered Sheng Long Mansion, they encountered almost no resistance. Only some rebels who took advantage of the chaos to rob were quickly wiped out by the Ming army.
So easy? The commander-in-chief of the Shuo Army was now Hao Yaoqi. He reined in the horse's head and looked up at Annan's "Imperial Palace". After a long while, he shook his head and dismounted.
"The official treasury, the palace, the Zheng family's residence and other places have been strictly guarded by me. Anyone who dares to steal the treasure will be killed." Hao Yaoqi stepped into the palace, stopped again, and sternly told the gendarmerie captain
.
"Your Highness, please rest assured." The military police captain gave a military salute and said, "We have made arrangements beforehand and nothing will go wrong."
"Well, that's good." Hao Yaoqi nodded, turned around and said, "We are just here for money and food. We don't pay enough, so it's hard to explain to Long Live!"
"Your Highness wants to see the seizures, the Generalissimo's Palace should have the most." The captain of the military police smiled and bowed, "The general will go there to supervise the inventory. Your Highness, do you have any other orders?"
Hao Yaoqi waved his hand, indicating that he could go, and stepped into the palace. Accompanied by several personal guards, he walked casually and watched.
Hao Yaoqi is quite satisfied with the current situation. Whether it is from the imperial examination or from the history, the Jiashen Rebellion, which was once a heartache for the remnants of Dashun Army, has finally been concluded objectively and realistically, and the mismanagement of the imperial court in the late Ming Dynasty has been concluded.
, the disorder of the peasant army has been explained. In summary, the official has admitted that the hungry people's uprising has its legitimate reasons, and has also criticized its destructiveness. However, the subsequent resistance to the Qing Dynasty was a matter of national justice and is worthy of praise.
At this point, the history of the remaining Dashun Army has turned over. This promise was made before, but it is different now. Zhu Yongxing is already the Supreme Leader of the 95th Period, and his conclusion is certainly the most authoritative and convincing.
Of course, in terms of actual actions, the remnants of the Dashun Army should have been relieved for a long time. Under the leadership of Zhu Yongxing, the imperial court did a very good job in resettling veterans and providing disability pensions. Regardless of your origin, it is always the same standard.
All of them are part of the Ming army.
People like Liu Tichun, Hao Yaoqi, Li Laiheng, etc., together with Li Dingguo, Bai Wenxuan, Ma Bao, etc. who came from the Great Western Army, and Xia Guoxiang, Hu Guozhu, Wang Fuchen, etc. who came from the Wu clan, besides themselves, they are most concerned about whether their old troops can Good results have been obtained.
