Chapter 166
This guy Li Guodong was also covered in blood, but this guy is very lucky now. Even if he thought about it with his toes, he never thought that he would have such a good result today.
According to the original plan, if there were no traitor Liu Liangzuo today, we would definitely be able to win, and there would not be such a big casualty, and it would be uncertain that we could even capture Shang Kexi.
"Your Highness, my humble minister..."
Li Guodong was still preparing to continue scolding, but who knew that when he looked up, he saw Zhu Cilang standing, and quickly took back the rest of his words.
"I know how angry you are. No one blames this. I blame me for not knowing people. If I could feel it earlier, I wouldn't have let so many brothers be buried with me."
What Zhu Cilang said was a truth, but in feudal society, the emperor of a country could never admit his mistakes.
Even if there is any deviation, it is still a problem for others. Many ministers will rush to come out to admit their mistakes, and it will definitely have nothing to do with the emperor.
Although Zhu Cilang is not the emperor yet, Emperor Chongzhen has been in the past. Zhu Cilang is now as a prince, and it is no different from the emperor.
When Zhu Cixuan spoke, he looked tired, but at this time he was relaxed.
Although Zhu Cixuan did not participate in the war directly, he was very tired for a person to concentrate throughout the whole process. Now he has finally relaxed.
Hundreds of thousands of people were fighting on this land. If they failed, Zhu Cilang could not imagine the consequences.
Fortunately, although the current result is a tragic victory, it is within the acceptable range of our side.
After Zhu Cixuan finished speaking, everyone knelt down. How could the monarch be wrong? If the monarch is wrong, you are still standing next to you carelessly. Wouldn't that be too much?
"There is a crime for death."
A group of people knelt in front of Zhu Cilang to apologize.
"Everyone is up. I don't want to hold anyone responsible for this. It's great to have such a result today. You can't rest now. Go down to treat the wounded immediately, and pay what you should be given, what you should be given, what you should be given, what you should be given, what you should be given, what you should be given, what you should be given, what you should be given, what you should be given, what you should be given, what you should be given, what you should learn in this war, this is the greatest victory. In addition, you can immediately choose a combat-capable army and be on guard for ten miles around."
Although Zhu Cixuan is relaxed now, he is still very rational and immediately arranges the subsequent things.
"In addition, the will of this palace is to let Gao Jie bring his infantry brigade to Qufu."
Li Guodong's army also suffered a lot of losses, so there must be a new force here. As for Huang Degong's army, although it has gathered thousands of people, it has no combat power now.
When the Northern Expedition was launched, Zhu Cixuan never expected that he would use so many troops.
At the beginning, he only brought 100,000 people north and placed 40,000 people in the four towns in Jiangbei. The remaining people were the real army for the Northern Expedition.
But later, more than 30,000 Huang Degong's men, and some of the troops in the dynasty were added, and the number was also increasing.
Even so, I feel that the army in my hands is a little stretched. It is the sentence Zhu Cilang realized that he underestimated this era.
Li Guodong nodded beside him and arranged for his own people to go down and pass the order. If it were normal, this guy would definitely say that his own people could hold on.
But when he was patrolling the military camp just now, he saw that at least one-third of his subordinates had lost their combat effectiveness. In order to ensure the safety of the position, Gao Jie's men must be transferred.
"Your Highness, you have tea."
Just then the eunuch brought tea, and Zhu Cilang felt thirsty, so he picked it up and drank it all. Only then did he remember that he hadn't taken a sip of water all day.
It seems that the tension on the battlefield can indeed make people forget everything.
"Give General Li tea."
It turns out that when Zhu Cilang was not seen drinking water, Li Guodong couldn't feel thirsty either.
Now that I saw Zhu Cilang drinking it all, I was indeed a little thirsty, so I quickly took it over and took it all.
"I saw that the city wall was still useful. After Gao Jie came, he would let his army enter the city to defend and repair it a little. From now on, the area south of Qufu belonged to the Ming Dynasty and immediately became the world."
Li Guodong had just finished drinking tea, and Zhu Cixuan's imperial edict was issued, but for the soldiers, they were indeed very happy at this moment. They took back these territories.
Politically, this is indeed a big victory.
Since the Qing Dynasty launched its rebellion against the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty has never achieved such a great victory in its struggle with them.
After the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, most people in the world believed that the Ming Dynasty had been exhausted and it was very likely that the Qing Dynasty would replace the Ming Dynasty, so some people competed to surrender.
Whenever the Ming Dynasty army failed, these people would celebrate, as if they were really full of people.
The current victory of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has effectively countered the theory of national destruction by these people and allowed them to see the combat effectiveness of the Ming army. Even the elite troops under Prince Yu Duoduo are no match for them, let alone other armies.
This can be regarded as a shot of a heart-warming agent for the Ming Dynasty, which is on the decline. At least the people in Jiangnan saw hope and would move homes if there was no turmoil in the future.
As for the warlords from all over the Ming Dynasty, they also saw the combat effectiveness of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's army from this battle. Even if they had any moves, they had to consider it more. At least their combat effectiveness was not as good as that of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty.
The Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were all beaten to this. If we do not obey the leadership of His Royal Highness, we have to think about what the end result will be. Some things are not so taken for granted.
Capital.
Dorgon sat upright in Yin'an Hall of Prince Rui's mansion, and his eyes were staring at the front without any fear. If his chest was not still undulating, others would have thought that this guy had turned into a dead body.
The results of the Battle of Qufu have been delivered. At this moment, this guy can't figure it out. How could the nearly 300,000 army collapse?
Even if Duoduo failed before, didn’t Shang Kexi and others come to support him?
He also brought 40,000 elite Liaodong cavalry infantry, plus some Han troops shaking flags and shouting. Even if each person spits out, it can solve the Southern Ming army, but now it is us who are being solved...
