Ming Taizi's Total War

Chapter 208 Tongguan Ancient Battlefield

Now that the purpose of their trip has been achieved, and Bumbutai also promised not to interfere in this matter, they can go away with peace of mind. Bumbutai and her son Fulin did not die, and they had no words in the capital. right.

Now as long as she is forced to express her opinion and make a decision, there is no chance for Bumbutai to go back on her word. If Bumbutai insists on doing that, Daishan and the others will have a hundred reasons to stop her.

Just after Daishan and the others left, the sun gradually set and the moon gradually rose. The bright moonlight shone in the Forbidden City again, illuminating the courtyard for the anxious Bumubutai.

She didn't know what was happening to Abunai who had left the city, but since Daishan arrived, Bumbutai had been in a panic. She didn't know what the princes and ministers were thinking, but she knew that Abunai and she were the same. The Mongols are destined to have a hard time gaining their trust.

Thinking that Dorgon, Daishan and others would resent Abu Nai's garrison in Beijing and Tianjin in the future, Bumbutai was worried about the future of himself and Fulin.

But she had to do this, because she didn't want to be a canary that was kept in the big cage of the Forbidden City by the princes and nobles of the Qing Dynasty. She, Bumbutai, was the daughter of the golden family, and she was born to love the pursuit of freedom.

Although the princes and nobles wanted to imprison her, she would never give in, not only for herself, but also for her son Fulin.

Although he is the little emperor of the Tartar Kingdom, no one has ever really regarded him as the master, not to mention the princes and ministers outside the Forbidden City, even the eunuchs and maids in the palace know that Fulin seems to be the emperor, but in fact he is more It is a tool to reconcile the contradictions among the nobles, and it is nothing more than a buffer standing in the middle of the crowd.

While Bumbutai was looking at the moonlight and thinking about it, thousands of miles away from the Forbidden City, on the distant ancient battlefield of Tongguan, Prince Heshuoyu Duoduo was also quietly looking at the moonlight and thinking about it.

Obviously, like Bumbutai, he also has his own unspeakable worries and thoughts, but unlike Bumbutai, his worries are larger and more meaningful.

That's how I can lead the Qing army to defeat the Han people, lead the Qing army to dominate the Central Plains, make indelible feats, and create a foundation that will last forever.

Even if the current Duduo is a modern person who has traveled through time, he will be worried about this.

Although in history, Duoduo led more than [-] Manchu, Han and Qing troops all the way south, he broke Dashun's defense in the entire north in just a few months and drove Li Zicheng all the way from the capital to Hubei.

He also went all the way south to break through Yangzhou, wiped out the small Hongguang court of Nanming, and wiped out all the emperors of Nanming like chasing chickens and dogs.

But for Duduo, history has forever turned at this moment. With the remaining tens of thousands of elites of the Dashun Army and other troops, Li Zicheng, who has a total of more than [-] people guarding Tongguan, has already smashed him here. more than a month.

For more than a month, both sides refused to give in. Either Li Zicheng took the initiative to attack the Qing army's position, or Duduo took the initiative to attack the city wall of Tongguan.

Li Zicheng wanted to break through the Qing army's battle formation and defeat them on the field battlefield. Although this would cause heavy casualties, only in this way could he drive Duduo away as quickly as possible, and then return to northern Shaanxi and fight with Li Zicheng. Prince Zheng fought a bloody battle in Jierhalang. Only in this way can his Dashun regime have a glimmer of hope in this cruel and troubled world.

As for Duduo, he also wanted to break through the city wall of Tongguan as soon as possible, send his troops to Guanzhong, and wipe out Li Zicheng's lair in one fell swoop. In this case, Li Zicheng would have no way out, and he would not be able to use Hanzhong to go to Sichuan and Shu to go to the south, and he would also lose the base area on which he relied for survival. In an instant, Li Zicheng would be beaten from the Yongchang Emperor who was proclaimed emperor by the establishment to a rogue who fled in all directions.

It's a pity that the goals of these two people can't be achieved for the time being. For this reason, they have already paid tens of thousands of lives on this ancient battlefield in Tongguan.

Because Li Zicheng and Duoduo mobilized all their troops for a life-and-death struggle as soon as they sent out troops. Unfortunately, due to the limitations of the battlefield, only a small number of people actually fought most of the time.

But even so, the two of them still did their best to put all the strength they could mobilize into the battlefield, just to increase the slightest possibility.

But soon a change came for Duduo and Li Zicheng, that is, the Ming army's heavy military group led by Shi Kefa and Zhang Yong. In order to avoid the recurrence of the Shun army being driven south by the Qing army in history, Zhang Peilun wanted to rewrite Duduo's story The history of Tongguan's defeat of Li Zicheng.

Now Duduo is worried about this matter. Although Shi Kefa and Zhang Yong's army have not yet reached Tongguan, even tens of miles away, the Qing army, which pays attention to intelligence and reconnaissance, has already reported the news of the Ming army's march to Duduo through scouts. .

Just when Dodo was looking at the moonlight and was full of thoughts, a vigorous figure suddenly came in front of Dodo and said to him quite respectfully.

"My lord, what are you thinking about here if you don't sleep so late?"

Duoduo took a closer look, and it turned out to be Kong Youde, king of Zhishun. Among the Han warlords who took refuge in Miqing, he was considered earlier and more trusted. Although his combat effectiveness was not very good, but fortunately he was loyal. Li Duoduo is very optimistic about him.

When he saw Kong Youde's old face, although he was disgusted, but seeing that he was a loyal dog, Duoduo patiently said to him, "The Ming army will come over soon, I don't know how the battle will be. .”

"Our heavenly soldiers of the Tartar Qing Dynasty are victorious in all battles, and the Ming army is weak. How many people they come here, don't they kill so many people on the banks of the Yellow River?" Kong Youde's words were somewhat flattering.

However, judging from the past achievements of the Qing army, it is not a lie. Usually, it is not necessary to explain the army inside the court, even if it is the most elite frontier army.

Once they encounter the Qing army, they will either surrender in anticipation, or the entire army will be wiped out after a bloody battle. The Ming army is often sure of victory in a battle with hundreds or thousands of people, but once the number of people is tens of thousands, or even tens of thousands, the Ming army will be defeated. Almost none of them defeated the Qing army.

If it weren't for this, it would be impossible for Kong Youde and other Han warlords to follow the Qing army so desperately.

Even though the Qing court gave officials titles, gold and silver very generously, as long as they had soldiers and prestige, they could seal a county king when they came.

But if Qi Qing has no hope of taking over the world, if he cannot seize control of the Central Plains and become the ruler of hundreds of millions of Han people, no matter how high the title is, it will be in vain and meaningless.

It's like a bond that is hard to cash, it's too hard to wipe your ass, let alone you need to pay for it, in that case, even if you have a good tongue, no one will believe it.
