Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 903
Needless to say, his decision, of course, is to go out again.

Although it is too far away from the Persian Empire, it may be too late to arrive before the start of the war, but no matter what, we still have to rush.

To be honest, Emperor Chongzhen still admired Abbas II a little.In response to the threat of the Ming army, he even bowed his head to his feud.This decision cannot be made by ordinary people.

After thinking about it, Emperor Chongzhen felt that Abbas II was afraid of destroying the Mughal Empire by himself.In other words, it scared the aristocrats of the entire Persian Empire.Otherwise, after all, the Ottoman Empire is Persia's feud, even if Abbas II wants to surrender, he has to consider the domestic influence.

Since they are so afraid, it means that this method is easy to use.Emperor Chongzhen thought in his heart, then continue to use this method.

This time, he led a battalion of [-] hussars into the expedition, just like the last time, he took the train to Luntai of Tianshan Mountain, and entered the border of Tang Kingdom from there.Regardless of whether the coalition forces of the Ottoman Empire and the Persian Empire ultimately want to attack Hong Chengchou's side or Wu Sangui's side, he can go west or south for reinforcements.

Yellow sand wears golden armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never be repaid if it is not broken!
This time, let's just destroy these two countries, otherwise, I would be too sorry for myself if I traveled all the way!

Emperor Chongzhen made a decision in his heart, but he didn't hold it too high. Not only did he send an urgent envoy to the west to report the news when he heard the news, but he also issued an imperial edict to Hetao before he went out to gather [-] soldiers. Thousand Cavalry Army, let them take the train from Guihua City to Tianshan Luntai first and wait for him.

In his prediction, if he selects [-] cavalry troops from the Luntai side of Tianshan Mountain and gathers [-] cavalry troops, it will be almost the same.

The reason why we came together in this way is because Guihua City on the other side of Hetao is the gathering place of Mongolian grassland tribes, including the three tribes in Mobei, eastern Mongolia and central and western Mongolia. Choose a [-] cavalry army, one man with two horses or Three-horse configuration, that is more than enough.

On the Luntai side of the Tianshan Mountains, because Hong Chengchou led the army to attack Tsarist Russia, he took away the main force at that time, and even added reinforcements from Shaanxi and Hetao, so the remaining troops will not be too many. The Thousand Cavalry Army is about the same.

In the other direction, according to the Class A seeds from Togo Shipyard, a steam iron-clad battleship was built.Although it's a little less, it's still better than nothing.Emperor Chongzhen's decree has also been passed over there, ordering the Ming navy in Nanyang, together with the newly built steam iron-clad battleship, to immediately advance westward for reinforcements upon receiving the decree.

The mobilization of troops this time is much larger than the troops that wiped out the Mughal Empire.

In addition to this, before Emperor Chongzhen left, he also issued a decree to the cabinet.Let the domestic side organize manpower, that is, to select the bachelor of Ming Dynasty and prepare to move to Persia and the Ottoman Empire.By the way, let them deliver the follow-up supplies.

Of course, this matter is not forced, the focus is on publicity.For Daming at this time, most people may not be able to accept Xiyi's ghostly appearance, but there are legends about the beauty of Persia.

………………

When Emperor Chongzhen rushed to the west, he was a little regretful that the discussions between the Ottoman Empire and the Persian Empire did not have too much discussion.This is mainly because Abbas II and Koprulu are shrewd people who know how to advance and retreat. Therefore, it did not take long to reach an agreement.

Subsequently, the Persian Empire gathered troops together with the Dutch and British fleets, a total of 15 troops, and marched eastward by land and sea to attack Li Dingguo's troops.

And the Ottoman Empire, conscripted his vassal states, including the Crimean Khanate, with 15 cavalry troops and 23 infantry troops, a total of [-] troops, to attack the Bukhara Khanate that had just been defeated by Ming Dynasty, and then Depending on the situation, either go north to attack the Ming army in the Volga River Basin, or go south to attack Kabul, Lahore and other places, go to join forces with the Persian army, and then conquer the original Mughal Empire territory.

Although Emperor Chongzhen used the [-]-mile express for the first time, flying cavalry, and carrier pigeons to deliver the news, it was still too far away. Whether it was Hong Chengchou, Wu Sangui, or Li Dingguo, Unexpectedly, the Ottoman Empire and the Persian Empire would join forces to attack them.

In the past, the Persian Empire adopted the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the country, scorching the land near the Ming army to prevent the Ming army from attacking.This brought trouble to the eastward advance of the Persian Empire, but it also made Li Dingguo and Wu Sangui unexpected that the Persian Empire would take the initiative to attack.

On the north side, Hong Chengchou also misjudged that there would be no enemies on Mingwei Fort for the time being, so the reorganization of the Torghut and Cossack troops was in progress.

Suddenly, the enemy attacked aggressively, catching several Ming troops by surprise.

At the beginning, whether it was the Persian Empire or the Ottoman Empire, it was overwhelming, and the Ming army couldn't resist it at all.

Of course, this is also related to the decree that Emperor Chongzhen secretly gave to the local generals of the Ming Dynasty.Once a war breaks out, the city can be lost, but the number of people cannot be reduced.This is the so-called "If you save land, you will lose people, and you will lose both people and land! If you save people, you will lose land, and you will gain both people and land."

If this strategy was from Ming Dynasty, he would not ask for it like this, but stick to it.However, for those places that have just been conquered, there is not much burden to use this trick.

Although at this time, many soldiers of the Ming army had already planted seeds in the local area.But the enemy army is too sharp, and if they stay, they will only be defeated by the enemy one by one. In the case of losing both people and land, whether it is Wu Sangui or Li Dingguo, they all chose to withdraw their troops to avoid the enemy's edge.

Of course, what they said publicly did not throw out the instructions of Emperor Chongzhen, but said that only by retracting their fists and gathering scattered troops can they severely teach the invading enemy.

In addition to the losses suffered by the troops and civilians in the nearest enemy country, in other places, after hearing the enemy's large-scale invasion, all soldiers and civilians withdrew their troops.The army is restricted by military regulations. A military order states that you must retreat even if you do not retreat.But if the people are nostalgic for their homeland and don't want to retreat, they won't force it.

In this way, Wu Sangui's troops gave up large areas of territory one after another, including the entire Bukhara Khanate and Kabul to the Ottoman Empire. His troops kept shrinking, and finally gathered in Lahore to meet the enemy.On Li Dingguo's side, he also retreated in a big step, and once again withdrew to the Narmada River Basin.

As a result, King Tang was frightened.He did not expect that before he could truly enjoy the power of the vassal king, he would encounter millions of enemy troops.Although he knew that this was what it was said to be, in fact it was certainly not that much.However, the imperial troops who stayed in Tang State were defeated one after another, which really frightened him.

So, while he sent people to blame Wu Sangui and Li Dingguo, he asked them, as generals of the Ming Dynasty who were responsible for protecting the land, they ate the imperial salary, but they didn't think about being loyal to the king and serving the country, and if they retreated from the enemy, they were not afraid of the emperor's punishment. I begged the two Ming armies not to retreat again.

No matter whether he is soft or hard, with the advice of Emperor Chongzhen as his confidence, no matter whether it is Wu Sangui or Li Dingguo, they are not birds of the king of Tang. Send manpower and materials to the front line, otherwise, they will retreat.

In this situation, King Tang had no choice but to do as they asked.However, he also had an idea. He sent people to King Fu and Zhu Cizheng to scare them as well. If the Tang Dynasty could not protect it, it would be their turn next.They have to contribute materials and manpower, and they have to support the front line.

In short, facing the attacks of the Ottoman Empire and the Persian Empire, the three major vassal states were all panicked.Fortunately, the original rich and nobles have been killed.Otherwise, in this situation, it is hard to guarantee that those whose interests have been harmed will have different thoughts.

After the Ottoman Empire captured the Bukhara Khanate, it encountered a problem for the first time.

Originally, according to Koprulu's original intention, he was more willing to go north to attack the Ming army in the Volga River Basin.Because the Ming army over there poses a great threat to the Ottoman Empire's vassal state, the Crimean Khanate, and may even further threaten the Ottoman Empire's mainland.

In the end, he didn't expect that the Ming army would retreat so quickly, giving up a large area of ​​territory, and they had to occupy those territories, which made the Persian Empire cheaper!

Therefore, Koprulu's final decision was to divide his troops into two groups, and the main force decided to go north, with a total of [-] cavalry and [-] infantry continuing to attack the Volga River Basin.The other [-] cavalry and [-] infantry troops occupied the territory surrendered by the Ming Dynasty without any difficulty, went southward, occupied Kabul, and continued southward.

Hong Chengchou was shocked after hearing the news. He quickly ended the reorganization of the Torgut and Cossack tribes, reduced his troops, gave up part of the land in the Volga River Basin, and reorganized his army to prepare for war.

In this regard, quite a few people from the Torghut Special Department couldn't figure it out, and even had opinions.

Originally, they reclaimed land in the Volga River Basin and diverted water for irrigation.After Hong Chengchou came, he increased his investment in this area.It can be said that the Volga River Basin has been transformed into a paradise on earth combining planting and animal husbandry.

The Bukhara Khanate in the south was destroyed before, and no one threatened this land anymore.Unexpectedly, the Ottomans came.

It stands to reason that it is not to fight to defend the homeland.However, the Governor's order is to let them give up here, they are really unwilling!

However, Hong Chengchou did not show up to express their emotions. He just asked Punchuk to suppress them and force everyone to retreat north of Mingwei Fort.

This makes many people feel that the Ming army is actually nothing more than this. The Ottoman Empire is so powerful and invincible.As a result, some small tribes that had not completed the reorganization began to think about it and rebelled against the enemy under the leadership of their leaders.
