At the end of Ming Dynasty: I, Sun Kewang!Desperate comeback!

"In the Battle of Mopan Mountain, the Eight Banners soldiers suffered heavy losses. If he is willing to save his troops and become a Tunqi army, then he can go to Jingzhou!"

"What's more, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from the Shun Army are still distributed in the Changde and Songzi areas!"

"He wants to escape unscathed, but it's not that simple!"

Sun Kewang looked confident.

Dhoni's main force, Sun Kewang, really wanted to annihilate him, but it wouldn't be a big deal if he was allowed to escape.

After all, he now occupies almost three provinces.

The population and cultivated land in its hands are several times that of Yunnan and Guizhou.

If Donny chooses to avoid fighting, he will go to western Hunan and escape to Jingzhou.

Then Sun Guozhu is doing well in Hunan.

Then reorganize the troops and horses, organize and train eight strong troops, take Yunnan and Guizhou in the west, and pull out Guangzhou in the east.

On this basis, we fought a war of attrition with the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

He is still the winner!
What's more, there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from the Shun Army in the Changde area, and it is not that easy for 10,000+ people to cross the Yangtze River.

Just searching for boats and setting up rafts would take a long time.

Even if Doni fled to Jingzhou, the main force of the Qing army would definitely lose a lot.

Doni and others were already defeated at Mopanshan.

If they abandon Yunnan and Guizhou and damage their troops and horses, Sun Kewang can almost conclude that they will not dare to take this road!

Because the Qing Dynasty is the Qing Dynasty, they are them.

Specific issues must be analyzed in detail. It will be beneficial to the Qing Dynasty and it will definitely be beneficial to them!

Seeing that Sun Kewang had made up his mind, all the generals said nothing.

"Your Majesty, our army has enough food and grass, and we are stationed in Baoqing and we are ready to work! This is an invincible strategy!"

Zhang Sheng changed the subject and praised Sun Kewang's decision.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhang Hu said quickly: "The city of Wugang is strong. Attacking it rashly will definitely cause damage to the soldiers!"

"The best policy is to wait for work in Baoqing while you are at ease!"

"All right!"

Sun Kewang waved his hand and said seriously: "Send the order! Order ten thousand soldiers and horses from Houjin Town to station in Yuezhou and Changsha! To prevent a sneak attack by the Wuchang Qing army!"

"All other towns, all leave for Baoqing!"

"I will obey the order of the king!" The generals accepted the order one after another.

"Wu Fengsheng!" Sun Kewang spoke out again.

"The minister is here!" Wu Fengsheng, the governor of Huguang, quickly stepped out and handed over his hand.

"It's up to you to make unified arrangements for the entire Hunan to be clear and secure!"

"I request that all personnel and materials be moved into the city and prepare kerosene. If the city is destroyed, everything will be destroyed. All materials will be burned and no aid will be given to the enemy!"

"Please rest assured, Lord!" Wu Fengsheng vowed:
"The military discipline of the Qing army is obvious to the people of Hunan. The Tatars have no food and are about to arrive in Hunan. The people will flee on their own without mobilization!"

"Wei Chen will definitely turn Hunan into a hunger strike place for Dhoni's army!"

As soon as he said this, Sun Kewang nodded slightly.

Hunan is a land of long-term wars, so it goes without saying much about the military discipline of the Qing army.

How many years have it been since Kong Youde, Jierhalang, Nikan, and Tunqi massacred the people of Hunan?

Even though the people have forgotten it, now that the Qing army is coming again, their memories should be awakened.

In addition, the whole of Hunan had already known the news that the Qing army was out of food and needed to feed the people.

At this time, as long as Wu Fengsheng and others mobilize, how dare the people stay in the village!

"Master, why don't we wait and go further!" Zhang Hu suggested:

"All the houses outside the city in Baoqing and other places were burned down! As a result, the Tatars have no food to plunder, no houses to live in, and no one to capture!"

"Our army has already won three points without a fight!"

"This..." Sun Kewang hesitated.

If everything except people and food were burned, it would indeed cause further difficulties for the Qing army.

But if this happens, the people of Hunan will be greatly disadvantaged!

I remember when Baldhead launched the encirclement and suppression campaign, he was trying to trap the enemy to death.

Someone in the base area ordered to burn down all the houses within thirty miles around along the enemy's marching route.

Wells and bridges should be blocked and demolished.

Doing so will undoubtedly destroy people's homes and drive them to a dead end.

As a result, the generals who were enforcing military orders on the front line couldn't bear it and changed the order to burn only five miles.

At this point, the opposition has not yet come, but the people have become one with themselves.

If Sun Kewang really did this, I'm afraid the front army and the people would start fighting before the Tatars came!
"No! I came to Hunan with the front army to save the people from disaster!"

"If the incident of burning houses occurs, I am afraid that I will lose the hearts of the people of Hunan!"

Sun Kewang said sternly: "Everywhere in Baoqing, the people are only required to bring their food and property and move into the city!"

“Not only can’t the houses be burned, but the food and materials that are too late to be transported away will be purchased by local camps at a fair price and burned on the spot!”

As soon as these words came out, Wu Fengsheng stood in awe.

"The Lord is so kind-hearted, I would like to express my gratitude to the Lord in advance on behalf of the people of Hunan!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Fengsheng bowed heavily.

"Okay, hurry up and supervise the situation. Hunan, especially Baoqing, must not leave a grain of food for the Tatars!"

"Please rest assured, Lord, I will fulfill my mission!" Wu Fengsheng said.

As long as the houses are not burned and the Tatars are coming, there will naturally be no resistance to the people moving into the city!

After all, the war is about to break out, and the people are not fools, so they will naturally look for shelter.

Governments across Hunan just need to organize!
Throughout March, Sun Kewang and the Manchu Qing Dynasty were preparing for a war.

Dorney tried his best to organize manpower in Guizhou and ensure the logistics of the army.

In addition to leaving more than 13 old and weak soldiers and thousands of injured soldiers stationed in the rear, Guizhou's 1 troops and more than [-] soldiers and horses in Sichuan.

Of the more than 14 troops and horses, a full 12 embarked on the eastward march.

Almost all of these soldiers and horses are capable soldiers.

Among them, there are more than [-] cavalrymen!

As for Sun Kewang, nine of the ten towns in Hunan were concentrated in Baoqing.

Only Houjin Town was left stationed in Changsha and Yuezhou to confront the Qing army in Wuchang.

Other places were garrisoned by a small number of Jiaqian troops, green camp soldiers, and rebels.

At the same time, more than [-] troops and horses led by Wang Shangli arrived in Yongzhou and joined forces with Sun Kewang on April [-]rd.

In Baoqing, Sun Kewang gathered a total of thirteen towns of soldiers and horses, plus cavalry from Shu vassal, Yan'an vassal and various tribes in Guangxi.

The number of soldiers has reached more than 14!

Among them, the cavalry from Tieqi Town, Xiaoqi Town, the Four Battalions, and various departments in Guangxi combined totaled more than [-] people!
In addition, more than 120 war elephants are also concentrated in Baoqing, just waiting for the big battle to show their prowess!

Such a big move by both sides and the aura it exuded caught the world's attention!
On the seventh day of April, the Qing army's forward crossed Ziyang Pass and approached Baoqing.

"Damn it, I didn't even see anyone along the way!"

On the road, Wang Fuchen cursed and ordered his cavalry to clear the road.

Ever since they entered Sun Kewang's territory, no one was around for dozens of miles, and the Qing army didn't even have anyone to rob.

This made him very angry.

"Master, my subordinates have searched all around. Not to mention women in the nearby villages, there is not even a sow!"

The deputy general said: "How about we go back to Ziyang Pass first, otherwise the boss' anger will not be vented easily!"

"Go, go! I am such a person!" Wang Fuchen cursed.When the army is fighting, they cannot bring their family members with them, so as not to affect the morale of the army.

But everyone knows the generals of the Qing army.

So every time they passed a place, when the soldiers were burning, killing and looting, they would always choose a few good ones for their leader to honor him.

Wang Fuchen has been going south for more than a year. Although he has never brought his family with him, he is living a very comfortable life in Yunnan and Guizhou.

After I wanted to return to Hunan, this happened!

This made Wang Fuchen very depressed, but there was nothing he could do about it despite the heavy military orders. He had better wait to discuss his own matters later.

"Bashan, this dog Tatar, let me be the vanguard to detect Sun Kewang's weakness!"

Wang Fuchen snorted coldly.

"If I take my brothers back now, that dog Tatar will definitely not be able to spare me!"

"Let the brothers march forward another thirty miles!"

The deputy general said quickly: "Master, if we continue to advance, we will reach Baoqing!"

"If Sun Kewang leaves a large number of troops somewhere, I'm afraid it's going to be a disaster!"

"Of course I know this!" Wang Fuchen sighed: "It's a pity that we just go back with what we want."

"What's more, all of my troops are cavalry, and each of my brothers has a horse. If we can't fight, can't we run away?"

"Let the Sentinel Cavalry test it out. If there are many enemies, we can just go back."

Wang Fuchen, a cavalry general, was naturally easy to use but he used it to death.

Therefore, among the [-] cavalry vanguard of Bashan and Zhuoluo, [-] cavalry from Wang Fuchen's department were impressively present.

Although Bashan and Zhuoluo are the vanguards, there are also front and rear among the vanguards.

According to the practice of the Green Camp being the vanguard and the Eight Banners being the rear.

Wang Fuchen's 3000 people were naturally in front.

So Bashan and Zhuo Luo are still at Ziyang Pass, but Wang Fuchen has to approach Baoqing to detect the enemy situation in this area.

Soon, the royal cavalry moved along the road, cleaning up and advancing at the same time.

On a certain mountain peak, the scouts from the front army quickly discovered Wang Fuchen's movements.

"What! Wang Fuchen!" In a village, Zhang Sheng's eyes lit up.

"My lord, the Qing army is indeed fighting under the banner of Wang Fuchen!"

"How many are they?"

"I'm not sure, but I estimate there are only around 5000 people at most."

"Okay!" Zhang Sheng was overjoyed.

"Fire cannons! Let off smoke! Go to war! I will capture Wang Fuchen alive!"

"My lord, although Wang Fuchen does not have many soldiers and horses, who knows how many Tatar soldiers and horses are following him!"

"The brave ones will be starved to death! The timid ones will be starved to death!"

Zhang Sheng geared up and said, "Behind us is the king, an army of 10,000+!"

"Even if Wang Fuchen is followed by the main force of the Tatars, the worst I can do is to close things down and let the Tatars bloom again!"

Zhang Sheng is really crazy and brave!

When we first took a small road to outflank Yan Pass, we encountered Kong Youde's main force.

But he refused to retreat, and instead chose to fight to the death.

As a result, Li Dingguo and Feng Shuangli came to the rescue with troops and directly launched a central bloom, defeating Kong Youde's main force.

And now he holds the eight thousand cavalry of Xiaoqi Town and serves as the outpost of the entire army.

I am also prepared to kill Wang Fuchen and eat all of Wang Fuchen's men in one go.

If Wang Fuchen is followed by a large group of Tatars.

At worst, he would stick to the spot and wait for Sun Kewang's main force to come to his aid, and create another great victory in Guilin!
"My lord, you'd better be careful. It's better to report this to the king in advance!"

"Opportunities on the battlefield are fleeting! As soon as the cannon fires here, the king will come to help!"

Zhang Sheng mounted his horse and gathered hundreds of cavalrymen in the village.

"Brothers, fire cannons, let off smoke, follow me to make great achievements, and capture Wang Fuchen alive!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

Loud shouts of killing rang out, cannons roared in the village, and smoke was everywhere.

The order to attack was issued to the surrounding Xiaoqi Town cavalry.

Zhang Sheng is riding a tall horse, wearing heavy armor, pointing the horse in his hand.

Hundreds of cavalrymen quickly rushed out of the village and headed towards the road.

"Not good! There is an ambush!"

Wang Fuchen's outposts were frightened and retreated quickly.

"Hurry up, don't let Ma Yaozi get away!"

Zhang Sheng bent his bow and nocked an arrow, and with a whoosh sound, the bow and arrow came out, and a Qing cavalry fell to the ground.

"My lord is mighty!" The cavalrymen cheered.

Holding a hard bow, he kept shooting at the Qing cavalry.

"Don't run away Wang Fuchen!"

"Don't run away Wang Fuchen!"

The shouts of killing continued, and soon dozens of fleeing Qing cavalry were killed by the bows and arrows of the Qingqian cavalry.

"Master, there is an ambush, leave quickly!" The deputy general quickly spoke and asked Wang Fuchen to evacuate.

"Hmph! How dare a few hundred people dare to do this?"

Wang Fuchen looked at the scene in the distance and was furious.

He, Wang Fuchen, remembered that back then, he had to enter and leave the Qing army seven times at Datong City!

Even Azig had to praise: Ma Yaozi!
This group of cavalrymen in front of them acted so wantonly and shot their own men wantonly. How could Wang Fuchen not be angry!

"Send the order, all cavalry units return quickly, I will wipe out all these Western thieves!"

Due to the eight thousand cavalrymen in Xiaoqi Town, it was impossible for a village to accommodate them all.

Therefore, Zhang Sheng only had a few hundred riders around him.

His original intention was to make sure that all the troops in Xiaoqi Town would rush to help after hearing the news, and the Jiaqian Army in Baoqing would not abandon their teammates after hearing the news.

That's why he did such a thing.

Wang Fuchen, who had wanted to think highly of himself, saw that Zhang Sheng only had a few hundred cavalry. Instead of running away, he planned to annihilate this group of Western cavalry.

By accident, Wang Fuchen's move played into Zhang Sheng's plan.

Soon, the Qing army fired cannons and smoke, and issued orders to all ministries to fight.

"Whose flag is that?
Wang Fuchen looked around and asked at the flag of the Western Army.

"Master, that Zhang character should be the banner of Zhang Sheng, the most powerful general in the front army!" the deputy general replied.

"Zhang Sheng!" Wang Fuchen's pupils shrank, and then he burst into laughter.

"No wonder this person is so reckless, he dares to attack my three thousand cavalry with only a few hundred cavalry!"

"Here comes someone! I am going to fight in person and kill Zhang Sheng!"

Wang Fuchen shouted loudly and led his cronies on horseback to attack Zhang Sheng's troops.

At the same time, in the fields, large numbers of cavalry under Wang Fuchen's command appeared one after another.

Faintly, an encirclement was formed against Zhang Sheng. (End of chapter)
