Chapter 486 Surrounding Wei to save Zhao
Huang Taiji couldn't figure out where Zhu Cilang came from, just as Zhu Cilang couldn't figure out his purpose at the beginning. This made people feel depressed, and Huang Taiji was a little hesitant.
"Since you have no soldiers in Shaanxi, you have sent these cattle and sheep again. Are you trying to tell me, are you going to surrender?" Huang Taiji said coldly.
Song Xiance smiled slightly and said lightly: "The people of Daming will never surrender."
Huang Taiji raised his thumb: "Okay, I appreciate your backbone. Since that's the case, I will fulfill you."
There was no need to continue talking. After saying that, Huang Taiji got up and left. The general named Song Xiance was a mentally retarded. If this person hadn't been mysterious, Huang Taiji would have stabbed him twice.
The reason why I tolerated it until now is completely because I am curious. Since the other party has not shown anything to scare people, there is no need for Huang Taiji to talk to him anymore.
The next moment, Huang Taiji decided to take action and let Dorgon and others kill all these inexplicable people.
Not to mention that there are no soldiers available in Shaanxi, even if Shaanxi has arranged heavy troops, Huang Taiji is not afraid. This time, he will be planning to rob people. Unless you take the initiative to surrender and beg for peace.
But Song Xiance said that the people of Daming will never surrender. Since this is the case, we will fulfill your wishes. Kill them all, so that there will be no grass left in the entire Shaanxi.
Dorgon drew his sword again and was ready to take action.
Song Xiance looked up at him: "Shengjing, it's a good place."
Huang Taiji was stunned and turned around in surprise: "Why, does the little general want to surrender to my Qing Dynasty? Didn't you say that the people of the Ming Dynasty will never surrender?"
Huang Taiji had a playful expression in his eyes. It seemed that the little general was afraid. He wanted to learn from Zhuge Liang, but he didn't have the courage to do so.
Song Xiance smiled and even looked at Huang Taiji pitifully: "My Ming people love peace, but you mankind have repeatedly launched troops to invade. Our Crown Prince said that it is impolite to come but not to go. Since you want to covet our Feng Shui treasure land in Shaanxi, then our Highness has to be polite and go to your Shengjing for a walk."
As soon as these words were spoken, Huang Taiji and others were frightened. Shengjing, their nest.
You know, Huang Taiji was in full swing at this time. He brought the elite Eight Banners and the Mongolian cavalry united, with no less than 100,000 people. Huang Taiji was sure to win such a tiger and wolf army.
Shengjing Shenyang was the old nest of the Qing Dynasty. Huang Taiji proclaimed himself emperor in Shengjing, and that was their capital.
In his hometown, Huang Taiji only left less than 20,000 guards of the elderly, weak, sick and disabled. Once the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty led his troops north and directly attacked the old nest of Shengjing, the Qing Dynasty would be over.
Thinking of this, Huang Taiji couldn't help but sweat. He didn't understand how the young prince of Ming Dynasty could see that his plan was so strict.
You know, Huang Taiji detoured through Mongolia and rushed into the pass, heading straight to Beijing. Yuan Chonghuan had thought of besieging Wei to save Zhao and leading troops to the north to seize Huang Taiji's nest.
The problem is that at that time, the Liaodong army in Yuan Chonghuan was not able to fight in the field, and Yuan Chonghuan did not have 150,000 or 80,000 troops. At that time, the salary was severe and the court had no money. Judging from the 30,000 people who were besieged in the Battle of Dalinghe, Yuan Chonghuan's real troops were about 40,000 to 60,000.
Moreover, Huang Taiji was also gambled at that time, and his target of attack was Beijing City. Yuan Chonghuan built Ningyuan and Jinzhou, not Guanning defense line, and Shanhaiguan was Xu Daxiu. Unless Yuan Chonghuan was crazy, even if the Ming army had the ability to fight in the field, he would not dare to surround Wei and save Zhao.
More importantly, Beijing City is the capital of the Ming Dynasty and cannot tolerate any mistakes. Even if Yuan Chonghuan wanted to go north to attack Shengjing, he did not have the courage to do so. After all, with the personality of Emperor Chongzhen, even if Yuan Chonghuan conquered Shengjing, he would be at risk of being cut off again.
In addition, the Ming army's field combat capabilities were too poor, and the field combat troops could not be too far away from the city. Although they were more active than pure city defense, it was generally impossible to expand the war zone and fight annihilation war. Compared with the field combat in the Later Jin Dynasty, which could march for a long distance without relying on cities, there are two concepts.
Xiong Tingbi, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War at that time, was good at and advocated this tactic. However, apart from the self-disturbance caused by internal problems in the court, the huge amount of finance required for this style of play and the training of soldiers were unsupported by the national strength of the Ming Dynasty.
The fall of the Ming Dynasty and internal and external troubles were actually a collapse of its own system. After Chongzhen ascended the throne, the rats in the treasury burst into tears when they saw it. How could there be money to support such a battle?
The risk of besieging Wei to save Zhao was too high, but the benefits were extremely high. Yuan Chonghuan did not want to, but did not dare. Besides, the young Emperor Chongzhen at that time did not have this vision.
It is difficult to comment on historical merits and demerits. Sometimes Zhu Ciyang felt that Yuan Chonghuan's death was indeed a bit unfair. A large part of the reason was the character of his father, Emperor Chongzhen.
Why did Zhu Cixuan check the archives? At that time, Yuan Chonghuan rushed to Beijing. Chongzhen's biggest mistake was to refuse Yuan Chonghuan to enter the city, which caused a situation where the emperor and the army were outside.
According to historical records, Yuan Chonghuan was shot like a hedgehog. If it weren't for the solid armor and his subordinates' desperate efforts to save him, they would have been gone long ago. Yuan Chonghuan, who was a scholar, had fought like a wolf and a tiger like a tiger, and it would have been great.
Of course, Yuan Chonghuan's ability in Liaodong is indeed unsatisfactory. This is part of the reason. It shouldn't be true. Yuan Chonghuan shouldn't have killed Mao Wenlong. Before the Jisi Incident, every time Huang Taiji went south, Mao Wenlong took advantage of the emptiness of Shengjing defense and launched a large number of attacks to kill the Qing army. Huang Taiji could not capture for a long time, and was attacked by someone in the rear, so he had to withdraw his troops and return to aid. This is the archives of the Ministry of War, which Zhu Cixuan saw about the previous battle of Ningyuan.
Chongzhen was too young at that time, and his ministers were all a group of foolish bastards. The court sent Liao pays to show his great emperor's grace. They felt that the Liaodong soldiers should go to the battlefield to fight desperately.
But no one thought that the military pay standard at that time was too low, and it was difficult for the soldiers to support their families. In this way, no one was willing to die for the court during the war.
It is okay to fight a vulnerable bandits. When encountering a strong enemy like the Qing cavalry, no one is willing to fight to the death. The pension is very small, and escaping or surrendering has almost become a common phenomenon.
At that time, Xiong Tingbi said: If one battalion and two battalions want to escape, the military law can be strictly followed. If everyone wants to escape and the camp wants to escape, what should we do? "Liao Zuo attacked, and the city collapsed." It was not that the city was not strong and the soldiers were not crowded, but because the hearts of the people were disintegrated!
