Become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen!

Chapter 161

The fact that the Korean navy brought the wild Jurchen to pay tribute brought the wild Jurchen into the eyes of the Ming Dynasty Hall.

At the same time, Lin Qingye, the former admiral of the Korean boat division, was discovered by Emperor Longwu.

Everyone knows that the savage Jurchen and the Korean Navy can make a fuss.

However, many strategies are not a short-term effort, and they are definitely not something that can be done if you say it.

So in the end, Zhu Yujian made a final decision to send envoys to the Jurchen Ministry of the Savages, and reward them with the rank of general, plus some rewards.

It's just that before sending out the envoy, he had to confirm how close the North Korean navy who sent these wild Jurchens to Ming Dynasty was to what extent they were close to Ming Dynasty.

After all, sending envoys across the sea to the wild Jurchen tribe would have to go through North Korean waters or even land.

And this task.

Naturally, it fell to Lin Qingye, the commander-in-chief of the Daming Navy.

In August, Lin Qingye, commander of the Daming Navy, arrived in Nanjing.

That is in August.

The war on the land of the Central Plains has fallen into a quagmire of stagnation, and all parts of the country have fallen into a stalemate.

Shanxi area.

After the Qing army first entered Shanxi, Hou Li Guo of Bo County in Dashun led his troops to fight against the Qing army led by Duoduo, Kong Youde, and Geng Zhongming.

Because the Qing army dug several trenches during the siege, the Dashun artillery bombardment could not hurt the Qing army in the trenches, but the Qing army artillery could kill and wound the Dashun army.

In the end, Li Guo was at a loss. After strictly guarding for seventeen days, he led his troops to fight the Qing army in street battles and held on for three days, and led the army back with the people in the city.

It took only [-] days for the Qing army to capture Taiyuan City, and the Qing army was still digging ditches for five days.

Then the Qing army continued to advance.

but!Goodbye to Li Guoji who left Taiyuan City.

Li Guo also stood behind the trench.

Digging!
It's like who can't!

After dozens of days of observation and intelligence, and after personally experiencing the resistance of the trenches to artillery fire on the opposite side, when Li Guo resisted the Qing army in Taiyuan City, he had already begun to arrange for the rear to dig trenches.

And the final result proved that the trenches are really easy to use.

The Dashun Army at this time is different from the Dashun Army in front of Shanhaiguan.

After one winter, the Dashun Army had gotten rid of the plague, and because they had captured artisans, palace officials, and the children of Emperor Chongzhen from the capital, and sent one of them back to Nanming to express their favor to Nanming, their regime in Shaanxi and Gansu also tended to be stable. Bouncing back from the mess and resuming production.

Therefore, under the trench tactics, the Daqing and Dashun, which also had mostly surrendered soldiers from the Ming army, suffered the same setbacks in front of the trenches.

Even the trenches completely wiped out the Qing's artillery advantage.

As a result, the Dashun Army, which was mostly on the defensive, gained a firepower advantage in the early stage!

However, the Qing army had a large number of troops, so it rushed into the trenches many times, and each time it required the Dashun Army to fight hand-to-hand in the trenches.

Some even carried a kind of firearm made of wood, rushed to the vicinity and ignited it, and the lethality of the iron sand was quite terrifying, so that the Dashun army had to bury their heads when they saw the Qing army carrying wood rushing to the vicinity Go down, dare not continue to shoot with firecrackers and crossbows.

So the first trench was broken after only holding on for more than ten days.

Li Guo retreated all the way to Puzhou in the southernmost part of Shanxi, only about [-] miles away from Tongguan. Here, he continued to dig trenches, and he never stopped once he dug.

No way, it's so easy to use.

A ditch withstood the Qing army for ten days, and the two armies competed around this ditch. If it weren't for the Qing army's artillery and those armored slaves carrying wooden firearms who launched suicide attacks, it would be hard to say who owned the trench.

So this time, Li Guo didn't stop once he dug, and he dug out a whole seven lines of defense in the north of Puzhou!And they are interlocking!According to Li Guo's idea, these trenches are like small fortresses connecting each other!
After that, the Qing army's offensive pace was dragged to Puzhou!

After Liu Zongmin, the Marquis of Ru and the governor of the left, led his troops to help, the Dashun army even began to push back for dozens of miles, until the Qing army also began to dig trenches.

And next to Shaanxi.

Dashun Linqu Baron Gao Yigong guarded Yulin for two months, and it was rare for the Qing army to survive.

After capturing the north of Yulin and the surrounding towns, but unable to attack Yulin for a long time, the northern Shaanxi route Heshuo Prince Zheng Jierhalang and Wu Sangui are gratifying, and the Qing army led by Obai also took out trenches.

Fifteen days later, Yulin was broken.

Zheng Yigong retreated to Yan'an, and then began to imitate the Qing army and dug trenches.

No way, at this time, Zheng Yigong and others, who were across the river from Li Guo, had already heard about the great achievements of the trenches, so they naturally began to dig trenches north of Yan'an.

In this defensive battle, besides the main general, Yuan Zongdi, Liu Tichun, Hao Yaoqi and other Dashun generals continued to attack and harass the Qing army, making the Qing army's offensive more difficult. By August, the Qing army had switched from offense to defense.

The Dashun army clearly stated that they will start preparing for the counterattack only after the autumn harvest is completely settled.

Moreover, Nanming did not move towards Dashun in the past few months, and Du Yinxi, the governor of Daming Huguang, wrote to Li in private, expressing his intention to be close to him, but was torn apart by Li Guo in front of the Dashun army and his generals. .

Of course, the main reason why Nanming did not move towards Dashun this year was not Zhu Youjian's "last words", but the obsession of Emperor Longwu Zhu Yujian.

At that time, he raised his troops to serve the king because Jiannu threatened the capital, and was then arrested by Chongzhen and put in prison.

Sitting on the throne now is because the Dashun Army forced Chongzhen to death.

So in name Zhu Yujian was definitely going to attack the intruder, but the first target of hatred had already been firmly locked on Jianu.

Although he didn't have the idea of ​​uniting with Dashun to destroy the Qing Dynasty, he was thinking the same as Li Zicheng, planning to switch from defense to offense after the autumn harvest!Recover Daming Shuntian Mansion in World War I!

It is said that Dashun is not moving, but it is actually a deployment of troops.

However, it is also because of this.

The battle between the Dashun Army and the Qing Army was recorded by Jin Yiwei and sent to Nanjing, where it was obtained by Zhu Yujian.

When he saw the record of a fierce general named Aobai in the Qing army leading troops to attack the trenches under Zheng Yigong's troops, "I personally risked the arrows and rocks, and I was so brave that I led the troops into the trenches, winning consecutive battles, but the trenches were narrow and small, and the bandit army Dozens of people refused with spears, and the captives would have to retreat.

After that, many times of rushing into the battle were also quite effective, but they couldn't break the needle in the trench, so that when they retreated, they cried loudly, "I really shouldn't have used such a cheap trick!". "

Zhu Yujian couldn't hide his smile when he saw it.

But this trench array also made him pay special attention.

Sichuan deadlock, or can this method be used to break it?

Zhu Youjian didn't know what it meant to the Ming and Qing Dynasties and Dashun, which had a high rate of firearms and heavy artillery, after he took out the trenches.

He only thought about how to get more manpower.

Now Zhengheiqi is just like the Qing Dynasty, an extremely efficient military tribal alliance with a strong absorption capacity.

And news came from the looting team that was out.

Because of the relentless pursuit of the Qing army, they had to increase their marching speed by killing prisoners, and the Qing army had followed them to approach the former Daming Mulijiwei (Nenjiang), and had already approached the territory of the Northern Wild Jurchen.

So Zhu Youjian had to mobilize his troops and planned to meet the general of the opposite Qing army.
