Ming Taizi's Total War

Chapter 167
It can be said that a big battle to determine the ownership of the world is going on. If you don't participate in it, Zhu Cihong will not be reconciled to anything.

"I have 500 iron cavalry in the Qing Dynasty, a million armors, and [-] million string controls. Isn't Your Majesty afraid?" Seeing Zhu Cihong's resolute attitude, I knew that I would not be able to have a good talk with Zhu Cihong, so he said The figures brought out by the Qing army threatened Zhu Cihuang.

Ning Wan, my threat, in Zhu Cihong's eyes, is like a child holding an iron sword threatening an adult. Although the iron sword is very lethal, the person holding the iron sword has no power, and the combination is like a joke.

"Hmph, my Ming Dynasty has millions of troops and hundreds of millions of people. Could it be that I'm not as good as those barbarians from Mizhou?"

"When I mobilize an army of one million, it will be the time when you will wipe out your country and your family." When Zhu Cihong said these words, he really had the momentum to swallow thousands of miles into a tiger.

"You Chiqing and Li Chuang, I don't know how to make peace on the other side. If you want to fight, come and fight. If you don't come, I will fight myself."

Zhu Cixiang's words can be said to be extremely arrogant, but now he also has the capital to be arrogant. His most elite and most loyal royal bodyguards include about 5000 horse infantry troops. In addition, there are Jin Yiwei, Banner Guards, Jinwu Four Guards, and Xiaoqi. Guarding these seven guards, there are nearly 4 people.

These 4 people are enough for Zhu Cihuang to fight a large-scale battle. After all, only a small part of the people mobilized in ancient wars were soldiers, and most of them were either auxiliary soldiers or civilian husbands, or even coerced Common people.

"If you have nothing to say, then you can go back." After finishing speaking, Zhu Cihong waved his hand, and the guards stepped forward to send the two groups of people out.

Ning Wan and Niu Quan were shocked by Zhu Cihong's words. We didn't know what to say to be decent and not rude, but also to achieve our goals, but when they were thinking, the guards had already sent them out.

But after going out, Ning Wan and Niu Quan also thought about it. Although the purpose of our trip was not achieved, the other party's purpose was also not achieved. To maintain the status quo, in a sense, they have contributed.

Of course, the premise is to see what they say when they go back. If Zhu Cihong scolded them, then needless to say, they will be punished and sent to the execution ground. Entering the rank, at least it won't punish you.

Watching the two groups of missions leave, Zhu Cihong thought that the methods of Miqing were all there. He didn't know that a bloody massacre was taking place in Xiuwu County, Huaiqing Prefecture, hundreds of miles away from Fengqiu.

On the battlefield in Fengqiu County that day, despite taking advantage of the favorable terrain, Zhu Cihong surrounded most of the Eight Banners soldiers, either killed them on the spot or captured them.

But the Eight Banners soldiers all have horses after all, and the total number is not much less than Zhu Cihong, so Zhu Cihong failed to wipe them all out. In the end, some of them, hundreds of them fled back to Huaiqing, and the news that Tong Mengchun was defeated by Zhu Cihong Tell Hauge.

Hauge, as the eldest son of Huang Taiji, who almost became the new emperor, could bear Zhu Cihong's breath, after all, Zhu Cihong was the one who killed three Jiala in one go, and almost wiped out half of the Eight Banners' troops .

Coupled with this failure, he lost a lot of direct lineage power, such as Tong Mengchun and others, and made him lose face in front of the princes of Mizhou. After all, he was defeated by the Han people. A glorious thing.

It’s fine if he’s an ordinary Manchurian, it’s fine if he’s an ordinary Manchurian general, he’s fine if he’s an ordinary Manchurian aristocrat, but Hauge is Prince Heshuosu, the eldest son of Huang Taiji, which makes him How can I not bear this breath.

So Hauge gathered the remaining two Jiala Eight Banners soldiers in Huaiqing City, and the three Green Battalions with a total strength of about [-] to go out together, and came to Huaiqing and chose a small town at random as the object of his anger.

Unfortunately, Xiuwu County was so unlucky to be chosen. Although it was relatively close to the capital city, perhaps the name Xiuwu in this county had exposed Hauge's scars.

"Cultivate martial arts, practice martial arts, why do Han people practice martial arts? These stupid southern barbarians should stand obediently and wait for the king's butcher knife." Hauge was furious when he thought of Zhu Cihong killing his three Jiala troops at once. Hearing the name Xiu Wu made his teeth itch with anger.

"Dotuan, let the green battalion of the three battalions surround Xiuwu County, and let's go to the west gate of Xiuwu County."

Hauge wants to surround Xiuwu County and make it a hunting ground for him to vent his anger. He brought more than 1 people. In fact, the number of people is more than the people in the city. There is no point in completely besieging the city. difficulty.

"Yes, my lord." Dotuan took the order.

He is Hauge's general, he belongs to Hauge's Zhenglan Banner, he belongs to Hauge from body to soul, and he is extremely loyal to Hauge. Of course, most Eight Banners people are like this to their banner owners.

Because of the special system of the Eight Banners, the control and connection of the banner owners over the Dingkou under the banner is stronger than any other system. The soldiers under the Zhenglan banner are not only the army commanded by Hauge, but also the people under Hauge's rule.

At that time, the Qing Dynasty did not have the household registration system of civilian households and military households. According to the Han people, the bannermen were military households, but the relationship of interests was far stronger than that of the Han people's military households. After all, the Qing Dynasty had not yet Reform the Eight Banners system and greatly weaken the power of the Eight Banners owners.

Just when Hauge issued this order, the west gate of Xiuwu County, facing him, suddenly opened, and a thin man wearing Ming Dynasty official uniform walked out from inside.

"Your Majesty, this county has submitted a petition of surrender for your Majesty, and the imperial court has appointed me as the Parental Officer of Xiuwu County. I don't know why your Majesty has mobilized troops this time." The magistrate of Xiuwu County said tremblingly.

Seeing Hauge's posture at the beginning, the county magistrate of Xiuwu County was so frightened that he hid in his room and dared not come out. Later, some masters in the county government felt that they couldn't sit still like this, so they forcibly pulled him out.

But it's no wonder, there are more soldiers outside than the people inside the city, so who can not be afraid.

"I know," Hauge said.

Just when the magistrate of Xiuwu County thought all this was a misunderstanding and he could use words to persuade Hauge to leave, Hauge said again.

"But I'm not happy today, I just want to kill someone for fun." After finishing speaking, Hauge took a riding bow from his back, bent the bow and set the arrow in one go, and it only took three seconds to stand in front of Hauge The magistrate of Xiuwu County had an arrow made of fine steel stuck in his forehead.
