Chapter 218: Do Not Fall

When it comes to Dahe Town, Liang Shifa's heart is also fluctuating.

He was ordered to go north after defeating Liu Zeqing in this town.

After all, the layout of the Military Information Department in this town, Huai'an, Yangzhou and even Nanjing has been initially completed.

Liang Shifa was speechless when he said that.

It would be fine if the entire Nanming court had internal struggles, but there was no way to prevent the deployment of spies from being carefully planned between the towns and between the courts.

Of course, it is impossible for someone to send spies to the north to inquire about the true intentions of the Qing court, as well as the number of Qing troops, troops, ordnances, war horses, food and grass and other military aircraft information.

The court was filled with incompetent prejudice, as well as inexplicable optimism and fantasy.

Compared with the prevention and attention of the north, the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty paid more attention to its own power struggle. At this time, the four towns were also in chaos and in chaos.

Liu Zeqing continued to build his mansion in Huai'an, but he only concentrated some troops to set up defenses along the banks of the Huai River. It seemed that he was afraid that Min Yuanqi would take advantage of his surprise attack and directly raid him.

Huang Degong was defending Zuo Liangyu in the downstream, and Liu Liangzuo was just expanding his army and looting money. Gao Jie had some intentions and plans for the Northern Expedition, but it is hard to say how powerful a town can do it now.

Of course, Liang Shifa didn't know at all. Not long after, Gao Jie was assassinated, and Xuzhou Town's troubled Northern Expedition was completely extinguished. The town almost finished the game before the Qing army headed south...

However, after Min Yuanqi defeated Liu Zeqing, the minor imperial court in the Southern Ming Dynasty still had the right choice after a brief shock.

Dahewei opened the town, Min Yuanqi was appointed as the deputy commander of the commander-in-chief and the general of the Dahewei. He could also have a deputy general who guarded Yancheng, a general who guarded Haizhou, two guerrillas and two garrisons, which guarded the three thousand houses and a water pass downstream of the Dahewei.

This means giving Min Yuanqi the territory from Haizhou to Yancheng, which is about one-third of Huai'an Prefecture to the newly established Dahewei Town.

Liu Zeqing had no choice but to pinch his nose and endure it.

After all, he was defeated. Before he had no ability and determination to start another war with Dahewei Town, Liu Zeqing could only accept such blatant acts as a blatant gangster in the court.

Otherwise, they would risk throwing away the remaining territory and fighting to the death with Dahewei Town. The court would not support it, and the other towns would take advantage of the situation and robbing it. If they didn't know that Shandong Town would become a dog that was a family.

Liu Zeqing was not so stupid, so he could only accept it.

After more than ten days of the incident, Chen Mingxia actually received news here, which is enough to prove that this person is indeed very informative.

"My young owner was a military appraisal in Dahewei Town..." When it comes to Dahewei Town, Liang Shifa was of course full of pride, but he was very cautious and did not reveal this emotion.

At the moment, I just answered one sentence very carefully, but did not exaggerate too much.

"It's amazing." Chen Mingxia didn't doubt anything. Even the heroes of this era, the so-called careful spy prevention is mostly in the novels, and there are no excessive means or ideas in reality.

Otherwise, when the old slave first started his army, he would have penetrated Liaoyang and Shenyang very well, and secretly bribed many Ming army generals and Mongolian Tartar soldiers.

During the war between Liaoyang and Shenyang, these bribers gave great help to the Eight Banners, which can be said to have at least 30% to 40% of the credit.

At that time, the Titang official of the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty was also a fine work by the Later Jin Dynasty and betrayed a lot of information.

The so-called spy organization, namely the famous Dongchang and Jinyiwei, made no achievements in preventing the troubles of Jiannu, and had never sent the spy to Liaodong to spy on the enemy's situation, and it became a useless vase.

By this time, the Later Jin Dynasty became the Qing Dynasty and had already been crushed in force. Of course, I didn't bother to use the method of being a spy to spy on the military situation of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, there were officials such as Hong Chengchou who were familiar with the situation in the Ming Dynasty. Compared with those who could only spy on the bottom-level information, these demoted officials had much more and more practical functions.

"Is there any difference between this Dahe Town and Gao Jie's subordinates?"

Out of curiosity, Liang Shifa thought about it and decided to reveal it. Perhaps it is still unknown that Chen can cooperate more.

"Dahe Town was founded by General Min Yuan Qimin, and his origin was as Master Chen said as the Min family of Dahewei. Previously, General Min felt that the garrison had become a canal for the transportation army and had no power to protect himself. Therefore, he trained some flag soldiers from his own family, and the original intention was to protect the hometown..."

Chen Mingxia nodded and said, "It is not surprising that many officials and gentry families in Henan, Shanxi and Shandong have recruited rebels, and military officers also have their own team training."

"There were pirates and bandits who were defeated by the flag army and beheaded a thousand levels... and then they fought with the Shandong town soldiers and defeated more than 10,000 elite troops. Now that Dahe Town was first established, the court did not provide much money for grain, but the town was not short of silver and money because it was controlled by the salt affairs. The court gave tens of thousands of stones of grain, which was enough for the time being. Therefore, the town recruited more than 10,000 new troops, and the original veterans had already 13,000 strong soldiers, divided into three battalions and another independent thousand headquarters, stationed in the sea, and the large area between salt was more than enough. Our boss was mainly in salt affairs at Yuntiguan, and also took care of some foreign affairs. In addition, dealing with the court was also on our boss. In addition, Zhou Zhou, the brother of Master Zhou, Huaiyang Dao, was also helping with Dahe Town, to handle some miscellaneous affairs in the town..."

Some of the original staff of Dahe Town, such as Zhu Wen, were smart and capable, and were considered the number one figure in the town. And these officials were doing the work of the department, but these words could not be told to the civil servants who were above the top in front of him, otherwise it would be counterproductive.

Sure enough, Chen Mingxia smiled slightly after hearing this and said, "No wonder Brother Zhu stayed with Dahewei. It turned out to be related to salt affairs. As for Zhou Liangmin, I think it is because the Zhou brothers are unwilling to be a bearer Huaiyangdao. Is Dahe Town the potential they cultivated?"

"It's not all about cultivation." Liang Shifa said cautiously: "Dahe Town is actually doing its own thing, and the two sides are considered a cooperative relationship."

Chen Mingxia obviously disagreed. Zhou Lianggong and Zhou Liangmin also came from a noble family and were quite famous among scholars. In particular, Zhou Lianggong's poetry and calligraphy accomplishments are not low, and he is also quite friendly with famous Zhou brothers like Gong Dingzi.

Even if the civil servants have lost their power now, I think Huaiyangdao and the famous scholars of the aristocratic families will not be able to join the general of a town, especially the young general who just started his own business.

"Dahe Town is different from the other towns..." Liang Shifa knew what the other party was thinking, and then said: "The town is united and trains troops are still strict and even cruel. The military orders are like arm commanders. General Min is extremely prestige and has not yet been defeated when leading the troops. In addition, the military pay is sufficient, the soldiers are paid enough, and the weapons are also the best in each town. The general never left a piece of paper privately. All the gains from the soldiers are sufficient, and all the income is used to purchase war horses and weapons. Because of all the outstanding things, our Zhu family is determined to help with all their strength. Please check it out carefully."

"I understand." Chen Mingxia's face gradually became solemn. Obviously, he paid enough attention to Dahe Town in his heart, but he shook his head quickly and said, "You don't know what you are in the south. The Qing people entered the pass with all their might, and the scale of the first five times was comparable. The regent was very talented and would never want to stop at the capital. Recently, the capital was just because the weather was hot and the northern soldiers were afraid of heat. At most, they would stop horses. At most, three or five months were left. From the end of this year to the beginning of next year, the Eight Banners of Manchuria, the Eight Banners of Han Army, the Eight Banners of Mongolia, the Eight Banners of Mongolia, the Mongolian cavalry of the outer vassals, as well as the troops of Pingxibo of the Ming Dynasty, the Dongjiang soldiers of the Sanshun King, the newly surrendered Ming army and other troops. The total number of at least 200,000 will be sent troops in batches... This is not the so-called 200,000 soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, among which tens of thousands of Manchuria troops are no match, and even Pingxibo tribes and the Sanshun King of Dongjiang are all me.

The first-class strong soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were Tang Tong and other newly surrendered officers and soldiers, who were also elites in the important towns of the nine borders. The southern army, especially rats like the four towns, could not be their opponents at all! That is, Li Chuang had millions of people. Although he suffered a loss on a stone, his troops still had hundreds of thousands of elite troops. If he could block the Eight Banners' advance in Henan or Tongguan, and in Shanxi, he would have some opportunities and might be able to rectify and defend. But as long as any side gained power and went south with the power after the victory, in my opinion, it would probably cause the four towns to collapse in an instant... Once the four towns collapsed, do you think the so-called Beijing soldiers in Nanjing, the noble bosses in the city, the officials and gentry families in Jiangnan, which family of officials and gentry would fight for the Ming Dynasty to death, or even die for the country?"

Chen Mingxia smiled bitterly, and she felt a little embarrassed.

When the Ming Dynasty's capital fell, the people who really guarded the city and fought against the rebel army in the imperial city were several eunuchs from the Sili and the eunuchs from the Imperial Horse Prison. In addition, the imperial guards of the upper three guards fought to the end. Although the number was not large, they were also the main force of the rebel army. They fought bloody battles with the invading enemies before Tianjie, the gates of the Imperial City and the palace city.

When Chongzhen hanged himself in Jingshan, he was the only eunuch Wang Chengen who accompanied him.

After the emperor's death, the great minister Fan Jingwen, the minister Zhu Zhugui, Ni Yuanlu, the left censor Li Banghua, the minister Wang Jiayan and other ministers.

There are also many nobles who die in the country, and the most eunuchs are.

The Jinyiwei, from commander Wang Guoxing, to Tongzhi Li Ruogui, Qianhu Gao Wencai and many other military officers died after a bloody battle.

Chen Mingxia surrendered to the Chuang first, and now he plans to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, and his inner uneasiness and shame are also quite strong.

Now it is better to say that Chen Mingxia is convincing Liang Shifa.

Yes, what if you don’t fall under the powerful power of the sky?

The Ming Dynasty has ended, and a gentleman should choose a good tree to live in.

The gentleman's deceased was killed for three generations. The Ming Dynasty has been passed down for nearly three hundred years. It is indeed the king's aura that has been completely restrained. It can be seen from the disasters and wars over the past few decades.

The country is destroyed and determined.
