Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 198 What to do?Gambling King Eza! (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)
Hubei, Yunyang Prefecture, Fang County, Hualongyan.

This is where Emperor Kangxi sent his most trusted uncle, the admiral of Yunyang, Tong Guoyao, to carefully arrange the Yunyang line of defense. Of course, the flank facing Kuizhou Mansion and Daba Mountain is also a very important flank!
Emperor Kangxi was familiar with all kinds of military tactics, and he also knew that in the troubled times of the late Ming Dynasty, the Yunyang area was once a battlefield where the Ming army and various rebels competed with each other!

Although the terrain in this area is very rugged, it is definitely not the kind of dangerous place where one man is in charge of the other.Instead, there are a large number of passes, river valleys, and mountain roads with dangerous terrain. As long as one passage is opened, the entire Yunyang defense line may collapse!
After all, Kangxi's troops are a little tight. Both the Shaanxi-Gansu battlefield and the Huguang battlefield are short of troops!The Guangdong and Guangxi battlefields are rich, but Wang Fuchen and Monk Zhixin believe that these loyal ministers are likely to be busy fighting civil wars regardless of the life or death of the emperor Kangxi.

So Kangxi could only give Yunyang Fuzhi (similar to a governor, in charge of seven or eight mansions) Yang Maoxun and Yunyang admiral Tong Guoyao pieced together [-] green battalion soldiers and a fraction, and they were all green battalions, or Only the conscience of Qing officials knows how many account soldiers there are?

Moreover, these Green Battalion soldiers, whose exact number is only known by conscience, are divided into six officials who lead troops, including Yunyang Admiral, Yunyang Fuzhi, Xiangyang General Soldier, Yunyang Deputy General, Jingmen Deputy General, and Nanyang Deputy General. It's less than two thousand account soldiers!
In addition, among the six officials, there are two big bosses!

Originally, according to the system of the Qing Dynasty, compared with the governor, Yunyang Fuzhi must be the biggest leader in Yunyang, and everyone has to listen to Yunyang Fuzhi Yang Maoxun.But the problem is that Kangxi is not at ease. Yunyang is now an important place to prevent Wu Sangui from entering Huguang from Hanzhong!
Although Wu Sangui threatened to leave Qishan, and he also took some actions, what if he is going from west to east?

The people in Huguang are already nervous enough, Ezha only has a few troops on hand, and he is being besieged by more than 3 troops of Wu Yingxiong, Li Zicheng, Wu Guogui, and Zu Zeqing!If Wu Sangui pulls another [-] or [-] people from Hanzhong all the way to Huguang, will Eza's entire army be wiped out?

And if the entire army of Ezha is wiped out, then the Qing Dynasty will be in great trouble. Wu Sangui will be able to station troops in Xiangyang by then, and Megatron China will be shocked!
So Kangxi sent his uncle to Yunyang to "help" Yang Maoxun fight.

Yang Maoxun's official is older than Tong Guoyao's. But Tong Guoyao's nephew is Kang Mazi!

Therefore, it is really hard to say who the boss on the Yunyang battlefield is.

In order to ensure that Yunyang is not lost, Kangxi gave Tong Guoyao face-to-face opportunities when Tong Guoyao took office. Pointing to the map of Yunyang, Kangxi gave Uncle Tong a plan of "dividing the troops and resisting every step"-the fence must be tightened. , must not let Wu Sangui, the scourge, break through the Yunyang line of defense!
With Tong Guoyao's ability and the tens of thousands of green battalion soldiers under his command, if there is a real battle with Wu Sangui, the whole army must be wiped out if you think about it with your heels
So Kangxi also took special care of Tong Guoyao not to pretend to be smart and imitate Ma Di. He must listen to the words of "Zhuge's version of Kang Mazi", be in charge, block all passages honestly, and at the same time set up "Yunzhu defense line", " Fanggu Defense Line" and "Xiangyang Defense Line", a total of three defense lines.

Well, [-] account soldiers were divided into three lines of defense to block dozens of openings, and it was really stretched to hold on to the five fortified cities of Yunxian, Zhushan, Fangxian, Gucheng, and Xiangyang!

But these mountain passes, crossings, river valleys, and important cities can't do without guarding them!

If you don't guard, Wu Sangui will enter Huguang
So Tong Guoyao, who arrived in Yunyang, had no choice but to convene his commander-in-chief, deputy general, and his immediate boss Yang Maoxun to discuss a plan to deploy the defense separately and divide it into pieces.

Among them, Yunyang Fuzhi Yang Maoxun was in charge of sitting in Xiangyang. He personally led 500 elite soldiers. These [-] people were all selected from Yang Maoxun's bidding, and one could count as ten!

Tong Guoyao himself shouldered the heavy burden bravely, and together with Yunyang's deputy general Hong Fu, he was in charge of Yunyang's defense line facing the Xinghua Mansion controlled by Wu Sangui. There were 6000 book soldiers on this line!The 2000 people in person are all dividing up the troops, and [-] people are in Yun County as a reserve team!

Yang Laijia, the commander-in-chief of Xiangyang, was in charge of the "Fanggu Defense Line", leading an army of [-] to guard several mountain passes facing the front line of Daba Mountain in Kuizhou, and was also responsible for the defense of the two key cities of Fangxian and Gucheng.

If Tong Guoyao can't stand up in the front, he will retreat to Fang County and Gucheng to stand together.
However, the changes in this battlefield are always so unexpected. When the first-line "Zhuyun Defense Line" was still impregnable, the "Fanggu Defense Line" defended by Yang Laijia was quietly recognized by the city of Beijing. "Big Bear" Wu Yingxiong made a breakthrough!

Wu Yingxiong, who was supposed to have a nest of raging bears, now comes with "one bear first" and "unstoppable bear"!

At least in Yang Laijia's view, the one who walked on the muddy road in the rain with a walking stick, straw sandals, coir raincoat, and bamboo hat, appeared outside Fang County with more than ten thousand Wu family elite soldiers who dared to cross the mountains and ridges. Wu Yingxiong in Hualongyan, a big town. Where is the "big bear", it is clearly a big hero!

Although he sent people to lead the way for Wu Yingxiong, he also withdrew the troops guarding the entrances of Daba Mountain.But Wu Yingxiong dared to lead the army himself, and was able to walk the mountain roads with the people below. It was really surprising that he went from Kuizhou to Fangxian in such a short period of time!
Anyway, Yang Laijia placed a group of green battalion soldiers in Hualongyan. He didn't expect so many "red scarf Wu soldiers" to suddenly appear in front of him-Yang Laijia didn't tell them that Wu Yingxiong was coming-so he scared them away , dare not resist at all!
Yang Laijia, who stayed in Fang County and waited for Wu Yingxiong, heard the news, and even became suspicious for a while—it was really hard work for Wu's army to climb Daba Mountain in the rain on such a cold day!

With this kind of energy, the Qing Dynasty will be over!
Now that the Qing Dynasty was about to end, Yang Laijia immediately ran from Fang County to Hualongyan with delicious food and various supplies to welcome the prince of the West and the Wu family's army
"My minister, Yang Laijia, pays respects to the son of a thousand years old!"

In a landlord's compound in Hualongyan Town, Yang Laijia led several generals and guerrillas. When he saw Wu Yingxiong, who had just changed into a clean white round-neck robe and a red hood, he came over to take a nap. bye.

"Pingshen, Pingshen" Wu Yingxiong greeted with a smile, "give a seat to Mr. Yang and the others. I came back suddenly, and I became a bad guest and scared away the brothers in the town. Are they all okay? "

"Okay, they all retreated to Fang County, and no one was lost." Yang Laijia hurriedly assured Wu Yingxiong.

"Then Tong Guoyao still doesn't know?"

"I don't know, I definitely don't know!" Yang Laijia suggested, "My lord, Tong Guoyao also has an eyeliner arranged by my minister. Lieutenant Yunyang Hong Fu is my sworn brother. People accounted for half of the defenders in Yun County!

If the son of the world can trust his subordinates, he is willing to lead his troops to take Tong Guoyao's head! "

"Tong Guoyao." Wu Yingxiong nodded, "It's still a little brave. Shifan!"

"The baby is here!" Wu Shifan, who was guarding the lobby, immediately responded.

"Lead your flintlock soldiers, plus a battalion of white-armed soldiers and Zongbing Yang, and go this trip together to see if you can capture Tong Guoyao alive. He is Kangxi's uncle!"

Of course Wu Yingxiong wanted to capture Tong Guoyao alive in exchange for his wife and children.In order to catch this Tong Guoyao, he also paid a lot of money, and directly gave Wu Shifan a team of flintlock soldiers and Shizhu Ma's white soldiers, a total of 2000 two hundred elite soldiers!In addition, Yang Laijia still has 2000 people, and Hong Fu has 1000 people.A total of 200 people went to attack Yun County!

"My son understands," Wu Shifan understood what Lao Tzu meant, and immediately said, patting his chest, "My son must find a way to capture this Tong Guoyao alive!"

Wu Yingxiong looked at the other generals in the hall again, and said with a smile, "Everyone, are you still able to move?"

"Walking!"

Everyone shouted in unison.

what time is itHow could it be impossible to walk?
Wu Yingxiong is going to Xiong Zhen Huaxia soon, this is the work of Conglong!
"Okay!" Wu Yingxiong said, "rest for one night. Tomorrow, let's fight Xiangyang City! Fight Xiangyang and enter the Central Plains!"

"Order!"

"Fight Xiangyang, enter the Central Plains!"

"Also." Wu Yingxiong said again, "Don't use the banner of my son first. Use the banner of my father, President Xiwang!"

"Yes!"

"Li Zicheng, you... you are too deceitful!"

When Wu Shifan went to capture Tong Guoyao, and Wu Yingxiong was about to take Xiangyang to Xiong Zhenhuaxia, the leader of the Qing Dynasty in the Huguang area, the gambling king Eza, had fallen into complete panic!
He has now led an army of [-] troops that he had put together with great difficulty into Shimen County near Jiashan Shimen Temple, Li Zicheng's hometown. Shimen was won without bloodshed, and Jiashan Temple is close at hand, so it is within easy reach.

But Ezha was not happy at all!
Because he already knew about "Li Zicheng cheating" - Li Zicheng, a native of Shaanxi, actually used the navy to raid the floating bridge in Shashi, this is not cheating, what is cheating?

But the problem is that Ezha is not sitting at the table of "fair gambling" now, but on the battlefield where soldiers never tire of deceit.On the battlefield, there is only one important thing, and that is to win!

As for whether the means of winning are honorable or not, it doesn't matter, and the loser has no place to reason!

Seeing Ezha's red-eyed and frantic look, Cai Yurong, the governor of Huguang who marched with him, and the Jingzhou garrison flag army, both commanding Babur, could only sigh Duoduo's grandson!

How brave was Prince Yu Duoduo back then?Li Zicheng was so beaten that he had nowhere to hide, so he had to hide in Jiashan Temple to become a monk. Now his grandson was tricked by Li Zicheng as a monkey.
"My lord, hurry back to help Jingzhou!" Cai Yurong immediately suggested, "Isn't Li Zicheng breaking the Shashi pontoon bridge to cut off our way back to Jingzhou? He must have taken the opportunity to take Jingzhou!"

Babur was also in a hurry: "My lord, there are only a thousand people in Zhangfutai. If Li Zicheng gathers 1 troops to attack Jingzhou, Jingzhou won't be able to defend for long! Once Jingzhou is lost, we will have to retreat to Wuchang and Xiangyang! And There are more than [-] banner family members in Jingzhou City, if they fall into Li Zicheng's hands, none of them will live!"

Hearing this, Ezha trembled, "Quickly, go back to Jingzhou. This king will fight Li Zicheng to the death at Jingzhou city!"

"My lord." A deputy commander of the Eight Banners New Army asked, "Should we still fight Jiashan Temple?"

"Fuck you!" Ezha yelled, "Jingzhou is going to be gone, why do you want to beat Jiashan Temple? Are you going to become a monk?"

"But... how do we cross the Yangtze River?" The governor asked, "Our pontoon bridges are broken."

Ezha's face collapsed immediately, and he just murmured: "What should I do? What should I do?"

"You can go north from Shimen to the Zhijiang River, which is the territory of Xu Zhidu, the general of Yiling." Cai Yurong reminded, "It must still be in the hands of the Qing Dynasty. When we reach the Zhijiang River, we will definitely be able to find a boat to cross the river."

"Xu Zhidu? But he's in the army!" Ezha shook his head, "He's not in Yiling anymore, and more than half of his army followed me to Shimen. Can Zhijiang hold on? "

"I can keep it!" Cai Yurong said with certainty, "I am very familiar with this Xu Zhidu, and I also know his wife Xu, she must have a way."

"What?" Ezha looked back at Cai Yurong, and found that this old boy was not bad looking, with a burly figure, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a big sideburn, comparable to that living Lu Bu Wang Fuchen.
"My lord." Seeing Ezha's strange eyes, Cai Yurong quickly explained: "This General Xu is good at controlling his wife as a general, and his wife Xu was trained very well by him. This Xu family is not on the expedition now, so he should still be in Yiling. Unless Li Zicheng sends a large army to attack, Zhijiang and Yiling will definitely be saved."

"What? Is your wife a general?" Ezha was taken aback, "Is there still such a way of playing?"

How to play?Is this for fun?This is to cultivate talents for the Qing Dynasty!

Cai Yurong frowned, but still nodded: "Yes, yes, my lord, when you go to Zhijiang and see Xu Zhidu's wife, you will understand that this Xu Zongbing is a talent."

"Okay, let's go to Zhijiang first!" Ezha thought to himself: I have to go and see it. If this Xu Zhidu really has this ability, I must ask him for advice.
"Whoo!"

Cai Yurong did not lie to Ezha, he is indeed very familiar with Xu Zhidu and Mrs. Xu Xu. And this General Xu really likes to train his wife to be a heroic female general—his first wife in history After Xu's death in battle, he trained his second wife, Kong, to become a female general!

However, under the auspices of the Xu family, Zhijiang, Yidu, Yichang, Guizhou, etc. along the Yangtze River, relying on less than 1000 officers and soldiers plus some local soldiers and civilians, barely maintained until Eza When they escaped from Shimen County in embarrassment with [-] Qing troops like bereaved dogs, they were still there.

But before Ezha and Xu Zhi both asked about how to train his wife to become a general, the Mrs. Xu told Ezha a bad news that made him shudder!
"My lord, I got the news from Xiangyang Mansion yesterday that Wu Sangui's army seems to have intruded into Xiangyang Mansion from the direction of Yunyang. Fancheng and several important places around Xiangyang Mansion City have fallen, and Xiangyang Mansion City may have been taken by Wu Sangui. !"

"What?" Ezha was taken aback, "Wu Sangui has already penetrated Yunyang? By the way, Mrs. Xu, is there any news about Yunyang?"

Mrs. Xu frowned, imitating the tone of the official, shook her head and said: "There is no news. But the slave family has sent someone to inquire, and there should be a return soon."

Hearing this, Ezha's heart was already more than half cold.

No news is bad news!
Yunyang must have fallen into Wu Sangui's hands!

However, there are not many defenders in Xiangyang, and Wu Sangui has an army of tens of thousands, so it is not difficult to capture Xiangyang.And once Xiangyang was lost, Jingzhou
Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked: "Then, what about Jingzhou? Has it been taken by Li Zicheng?"

"No, Jingzhou is fine." Mrs. Xu said, "At least the news from yesterday shows that everything is fine in Jingzhou."

"Everything is fine? Where did Li Zicheng go?"

"Not good!" Cai Yurong suddenly roared.

When Ezha looked back, he saw the governor of Huguang with a pale face and cold sweat on his forehead.

"Ren'an, what's wrong?" Eza asked.

"Yuezhou and Wuchang!" Cai Yurong said tremblingly, "After Li Zicheng's men robbed the Shashikou pontoon bridge, they will definitely demolish the bridge and continue to attack Yuezhou. There are many grain ships blocking Yuezhou. They were all taken by Li Zicheng, so Li Zicheng could take the whole army east to Wuchang by boat, and Wuchang is very empty now! Wuchang is lost, and the southeast is shaking!"

"What, what should I do?" Ezha slumped on the chair, his whole body just kept shaking.
