Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 876 The Battle of Jinzhou (3) ([-]rd)

It is not to blame the little emperor Shunzhi for losing his temper, nor is it because a 13-year-old child is moody and impulsive.

It's really because this incident is so annoying, the regent Dorgon is defeated again and again, the army on the shore is not good, but why are the water battles always defeated?Could it be that the army of the Qing Dynasty was so vulnerable?The excellent Aixinjueluo and the invincible Eight Banners Army will become a thing of the past, and the scenery is no longer there?
Although Emperor Shunzhi was young, he had great ambitions. At the age of 13, he basically had the brains of an adult and had a community in his heart.

Unlike today's thirteen or fourteen-year-old children, who are still young masters at home, stretching out their hands for clothes, opening their mouths for meals, holding mobile phones, playing games, and spending the night in Internet cafes. Temperament, running away from home at every turn, this is the real childishness.

The ancients generally had a short lifespan, with a lifespan of seventy years old, and an old man at the age of four or fifty.But they also mature early, and there are many who marry wives and have children at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and marry into wives.Others don't say that the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang is like this.

The current Emperor Shunzhi has already matured as soon as he came to the court to take charge of the government, and if he is immature, he will not succeed. No one but him dares to clean up this mess, unless he does not become the emperor.

When Emperor Shunzhi lost his temper, the eunuchs around him knelt down in fright, and the maids serving at the door were also terrified, as if they were sifting chaff.

Soon the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, Ning Wanwo, Ganglin, Bahana, Leng Sengji, Baiyintu, and Mongolian Tartar Wu Keshan, Manzhu Xili and other accompanying civil and military ministers, as well as Jinzhou local officials, including Wang Huacheng, the prefect of Jinzhou, and Yeluqing, the Ningyuan guard who had fled back, all ran over to serve them.

Except for the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, they all fell to their knees in front of Emperor Shunzhi, and they all fell silent like cicadas, not even daring to breathe.

Emperor Shunzhi yelled at them, and then threw to them the memorial of the navy's successive defeats, "The soldiers and horses on the shore suffered successive defeats, and the navy of the Ming army was unimpeded, as if they had entered the land of no one. Now they My warship has sailed to the Daling River behind me, and if you eat the king’s salary, you should repay the king’s kindness. Is this how you repay the kindness with my salary?”

The little emperor of Shunzhi tensed up, and slapped the Longshu table. These civil and military officials all became impotent, and they couldn't lift their heads. Dare to move.

When Emperor Shunzhi lost his temper, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang quietly picked up the memorial that Shunzhi had dropped on the ground, read it again, but also looked depressed, and managed to adjust her mood, and said to Emperor Shunzhi: "My son, victory or defeat is a common thing for military strategists. Why is it so? Let them all get up."

"Mother..." Emperor Shunzhi still wanted to say something, but seeing the majesty of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, he swallowed what he wanted to say, and turned to the kneeling ministers, "Let's get down!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Some knees hurt from kneeling, and after thanking En, they slowly got up from the ground.What is companionship like a tiger?What does it mean that the ruler wants the minister to die, but the minister has to die?At that moment, they learned the lesson.

The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang said slowly to these ministers: "Everyone, is the emperor a big temper? If you have any complaints, please tell them. I forgive you for your innocence."

After the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang said this, all the ministers present looked at each other in blank dismay, and hurriedly bowed and answered: "I dare not wait."

Empress Dowager Zhuang sighed, and said: "My Qing Dynasty is in troubled times. It's not scary for a person to have a temper, especially for those of us who care about the country and the Qing Dynasty, we are afraid that we will lose our temper. Then Will the generals still be bloody? Without the bloody, what do you expect to win the battle? We have reached the critical point of life and death, and we dare not lose again... Think about it, everyone, the Ming army advanced by land and water, how should we retreat from the enemy and win? Let’s talk, let’s talk about it.”

Hearing this, Emperor Shunzhi's expression softened.The little eunuch who accompanied the hall rushed over bravely, tidied up the messy things, put them back on the Longshu table, and then stood neatly behind Emperor Shunzhi to serve him.

The ministers below began to whisper and whisper.

"I heard that the Ming army's ships can sail against the current and the wind?"

"Can this happen? I'm afraid it's not true... It's not an excuse made by these defeated generals to shirk their responsibilities."

"And their cannons, which have a long range and great power, don't worry about it, but they can also achieve two bursts?"

"It's simply unbelievable. I think there is probably a fraud in it."...

After discussing for a while, Ning finished my speech. As soon as he came out, the audience immediately fell silent.

"Queen Dowager, Your Majesty. I don't know if I should say something or not?"

"Aiqing, please speak."

"Your Majesty, Rong Bing, since the navy of the Ming army is so powerful, Dalinghe City may be in danger. Would you like to send troops to reinforce it?"

Ning Wanwo, who is nearly 60 years old, is still alert.

"Grandfather, don't you know that the Ming army has built a heavy army in front of us? If we send troops out of the city for reinforcements, our defense here will definitely be weakened. At that time, Zhu Yousong will definitely attack aggressively. I think they are waiting for this opportunity. If Ming The army attacked the city aggressively, what should I do?"

Ning Wan, Zizi Gongfu, he is already a veteran of the three dynasties, and Xiao Shunzhi respects him normally, but now he is full of disdain.

"Your Majesty is wise, this slave is shallow." After Ning Wan, I hurriedly apologized.

At this time, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang spoke, "Ning Zhongtang is right, my son, if you don't send troops to reinforce, what if the Ming army's navy fleet takes Dalinghe City? Our retreat is cut off, Jinzhou It could become an isolated city.”

Emperor Shunzhi immediately realized the serious consequences, "What the empress means is that we should send troops for reinforcements. But if there are too few reinforcements, it won't help. If there are too many reinforcements, what should we do about the defense of Jinzhou City? Please advise the empress."

At this moment, a little eunuch who reported the incident ran in again in a panic, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, something is wrong, the naval fleet of the Ming Dynasty has already captured Dalinghe City, and everyone in the city The ten thousand defenders were wiped out."

This news was tantamount to a blockbuster, and everyone present, including Emperor Shunzhi and Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, were stunned.

Dalinghe City is located behind Jinzhou City. Although the deployment of troops is not as good as the two cities of Xiaolinghe and Nuerhe in front, there are 1 elite Qing troops in the city, dozens of heavy artillery, countless archers, and rolling wood and stones. Pile up like a mountain, and the whole castle is impregnable.

How can it last for three days and five days, and it was taken down by the navy of the Ming army so quickly?
