**Then Zhou Shaohuan immediately ordered the Fifth Army to guard Yanzhou Prefecture and continue to send troops to collect the Yanzhou Prefecture area and Tong Dayong led the Ninth Army. The Tenth Army launched an attack from Yanzhou north to Jinan and also ordered the garrison of Gaofan.
The Fourth Army on the Zibo Line also attacked Jinan from the northeast to form a double-sided attack on Jinan Prefecture.
After the Yanzhou Battle, the main force of the Shandong Qing army was basically annihilated by the Chinese army. According to calculations, the Qing army's current strength in Jinan should be only about 20,000. Therefore, the whole army is full of confidence in attacking Jinan. Now Abatai, Yue Le, and Li
The only prisoner of Taidu has been led by the Chinese army is Boluo, who is stationed in Jinan. If you conquer Jinan and capture Boluo, then it would be better.
Zhou Shaohuan and Tong Dayong led the Chinese army northward through Tai'an, then crossed Mount Tai and headed straight for Jinan Prefecture. However, when the army reached Fangshan, they received a good news from the Fourth Army. It turned out that the Qing army retreated without fighting and took the initiative to give in.
The Fourth Army left Jinan and entered Jinan
It turned out that after Boluo learned that Yanzhou had lost Abatai and Yue Le's reinforcements were wiped out, he also knew that his father and brother were in trouble. He cried in Jinan. But at this time he still remembered Abatai before leaving.
As soon as you help Yanzhou fall, don't defend it in Jinan and immediately withdraw from Shandong to defend Hejian Prefecture to defend Beijing's southern portal. Therefore, after Boluo cried, he immediately recruited the generals from Jinan to order the withdrawal of troops.
In fact, at this time, the generals in Jinan knew that Jinan could not hold on at all, so Boluo was very happy after he ordered that he immediately began to clean up and prepare to evacuate Jinan.
Because the Qing army took action early, it retreated calmly and not only did it remove all the remaining 20,000 troops, but also removed all the food and grass in Jinan. Most of the remaining ones could not be taken away. They lit a fire.
burn
Although the Fourth Army stationed in Gaoyuan and Zichuan, Wen Xun, who was stationed in the front line of Zibo, hurriedly sent troops to block the Qing army, but it was one step late. When the commander of the Fourth Army, Teng Yinyu, led his army to Jinan, the Qing army had retreated.
After two days, the last group of troops passed Yucheng County, so Teng Yinyu had to lead his army to Jinan to take over the city and then send someone to report to Zhou Shaohuan.
Although Boluo ran away and encircled the Shandong Qing army and failed to achieve the goal of capturing Jinan City without any effort, it was still a matter of celebration. After all, capturing Jinan means that the Shandong War achieved the most perfect victory.
Zhou Shaohuan and Tong Dayong immediately ordered a quick march into Jinan City and ordered the Fourth Army to launch an attack on Dongchang Prefecture, the last place in Shandong.
A day later, Zhou Shaohuan and Tong Dayong entered Jinan and sent troops to recover Yucheng northwest of Jinan Prefecture. The plain fought until Tokugawa before he took the troops. The Fourth Army's advance on the last battlefield was also very smooth because at this time, the Qing Dynasty
All the troops had withdrawn from Shandong Province, so there was no Qing army in Dongchang Prefecture to resist the Chinese army's attack. Wherever the Fourth Army went, all prefectures and counties opened their doors to surrender.
The Fourth Army entered Dongchang Prefecture on June 3 and entered Linqingzhou on the fifth day. At this time, the entire second Shandong battle ended with the complete victory of the Chinese Army Shandong Military Region.
The second Shandong Battle lasted 34 days. The Chinese army wiped out more than 34,000 Qing troops and captured more than 36,000 Qing troops and basically recovered the entire territory of Shandong. The Chinese army itself also died in battle.
Hundred and Thirty-one soldiers, another 3752 were injured
Moreover, after the Chinese army fully occupied Shandong, it was equivalent to squeezing into the Central Plains area of the Qing court to the north, which could directly threaten Beijing to the west, which could force Shanxi to the south, which could suppress Henan. It is already in a very favorable position in strategically.
After Wen Xun, Dorgon, who was besieging Datong, could not help but be angry and anxious. At this time, the Qing army besieged Datong for half a month and could not capture Dorgon repeatedly and had no time to clone it, and the front line in Shaanxi was also at the most important point.
At the moment, we cannot draw troops from these fronts, so Dorei had to urgently order to draw another 30,000 people from Beijing and hand them over to Boluo to defend Hejian Prefecture and ordered Hong Chengchou, who was stationed in Kaifeng, to immediately send troops to garrison Daming Prefecture to block China.
The army advanced westward and Henan with Luke Dehun's army stationed in Dorgon was a little relieved, so he did not send more troops on this line.
At this time, the Qing court's troops were already in short supply and had to use the method of dared to tear down the east and west walls to deal with the current situation. Then Dorgon ordered the attack on Datong and urged Shaanxi and Gansu to quell the local rebellion as soon as possible. Now Shanxi is now
No matter which place in Shaanxi and Gansu, as long as the rebellion can be quelled, the Qing Dynasty will be able to recover.
However, after occupying Shandong, the Chinese army did not rush to advance, on the one hand, because the two Shandong wars took place for more than two months. The Chinese army also killed more than 10,000 soldiers and more than 12,000 wounded troops.
It will take some time to repair the situation. On the other hand, there will be a lot of aftermath work after the war. There are many problems that need not be solved. The Shandong Military Region will not be able to carry out the next battle.
It was the final victory of regaining Shandong, which was passed to Nanjing. Before receiving Shang Yi's next order, Zhou Shaohuan did not dare to act rashly. After all, Shandong can now use troops to three sides. Therefore, all the troops are sent to that side. Zhou Shaohuan also needs to obey Nanjing's orders.
Considering the overall situation, Zhou Shaohuan also considered the next step of combat command and dispatch, hoping to move the command of the Shandong Military Region from Qingzhou to Jinan, so that the message of military use will be faster to transmit the information to which side of the army will certainly be faster. Of course, the migration of the headquarters is also a major event.
Waiting for approval by Nanjing United Front Work Department
Moreover, at this time, the three prefectures of Jinan, Dongchang and Yanzhou were just recovered and it took some time to stabilize and establish the administrative organization of Nanjing. In addition, fierce battles were carried out in Yanzhou. It was quite destructive to the city buildings, but Jinan did not
The war broke out, but when the Qing army retreated, almost all the food in the city was plundered. At this time, the food in the city was out of stock, so both places needed a certain time to recover. Now Zhou Shaohuan has ordered a batch of food to be mobilized from Qingzhou to ease Jinan.
Food shortage
Another very important thing is to deal with the issue of the Shandong uprising army. This time, it was able to capture the Shandong peasant uprising and the Yuan Ming general. Anyway, it also played a significant role. Without their cooperation and restraint, the Chinese army might not be able to win so easily.
But after the war came to an end, it would be a big problem. Zhou Shaohuan also experienced a large-scale uprising in the peasant army in the late Ming Dynasty. He knew that peasant uprisings were a double-ren sword that could harm the Qing court and the Qing court.
The Chinese Army itself
Because the peasant uprising army in Shandong now has a total of 60,000 to 70,000, including social oils, rascals, unemployed people, etc., most of them have not undergone any formal training, lack of organizational discipline, and no military discipline.
The concept of obeying orders and responding to the heroes of the Chinese army's anti-Qing army. Although Zhou Shaohuan repeatedly emphasized the respect for military discipline and not to disturb the people, he bullied good people in the early stage and forced them to take the strong and robbed men and women.
It happens from time to time and is carried out under the banner of the Chinese army. As for privately harboring spoils, it is even more common to rob the Qing army's remaining materials.
However, on this point, Zhou Shaohuan and Shang Yi had a consistent view on the implementation of military discipline. Never tolerate the order of troops from all over the country to deal with it if they find it. They will never be rude. No matter who rescues you, it will not be used. Zhou Shaohuan, who will deal with it continuously.
The number of people executed two violations of discipline reached more than 60. Although the trend was quickly suppressed, it did cause some righteousness. Anyway, the leader's dissatisfaction shocked the Chinese army's combat effectiveness and dare not understand it.
But in private he complained that he had made great contributions to the Chinese army. Now that the Chinese army occupied Shandong, he would be killed.
Zhou Shaohuan also knew that although this group of people was large, they were all mobs. Of course, they were not the opponent of the Chinese army if they really wanted to fight. But after all, he was to help the Chinese army make great contributions and could not be treated so roughly and simply. In the future, the Chinese army would also encounter them on other battlefields.
If you deal with similar situations this time, it may affect the future
Of course, the Chinese army also has its own way to deal with these matters. First, the rebel army was dismissed and those who were willing to work in the farming industry were sent home with a silver dollar and guaranteed to be distributed to the fields. The main body of the rebel army or the peasants who participated in the uprising were most likely to be desperate.
Therefore, you can take the money home and share it with the fields, of course, most people are willing, so they dispersed 70% to 80% at once.
Although the leader was not satisfied with those righteousness, he did not dare to act rashly under the coercion of the Chinese army. In this way, the Chinese army was disbanded and the team was not easy to lead, so he had to recognize this group of people.
We must give certain comfort to the soldiers who are willing to stay. All soldiers of the rebel army will be trained and passed the assessment as reserve army to become formal Chinese soldiers. If they cannot pass, they can be converted into local militias to maintain local public security.
The leaders are also awarded certain military ranks, but if you want to become a formal Chinese army, you must participate in training, of course, you can also choose to take administrative positions in the local area. This can eliminate the hidden dangers of the rebel army, but it takes time to
Solve step by step
In mid-June, the Shandong Military Region received a document from Nanjing. First, the Shandong Military Region commended the Shandong Military Region and approved the plan to relocate the headquarters and asked them to make good preparations for the next battle. Finally, the Shandong Military Region would be notified about one month later. Shang Yi would arrive in person.
