"Qi Sansheng's No. 14 Field Brigade will march into Jinling immediately, assist the 16th, 17th, and 15th Field Brigades to appease the area, and obey Wei Wuji's dispatch."

"Feng Wuyu's second field brigade rested and replenished on the spot, added its elite to Liu Liangzuo and other expeditionary troops, and then waited for the rear to dispatch troops to replenish, or it could replenish troops from the wounded on the spot, and reorganize the remnants who disrupted the organizational system."

"The 11th Field Brigade returned to Fuzhou and stationed in Fuzhou, supporting He Jin's troops at any time."

The conversation with Li Guo and Gao Jie gave Zhang Qiang a deep understanding of the original Dashun Army, and he dispatched Gao Jie together with the intelligence personnel from the Ministry of Military Intelligence to win over the generals of the Dashun Army in Sishan Kuidong Prefecture, disintegrating the foundation of the Southern Ming Army , to create trouble for Nanming, the more trouble Nanming fights, the safer the Huaxia Army will be.

At least Zhang Qiang didn't want to start a war with Nanming until the Qing army was dealt with.

Chapter 531 The Misfortune of Nanming Kingdom

In this era, officials want to get higher official positions, common people want to live a better life, military generals want to be enshrined for meritorious service, civil servants want generous treatment and respect, and each faction has its own interests. Zhang Qiang, who is at the top of this class, wants to unify the Daming country, or develop into a wider territory, becoming the most powerful lord of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Guo is a momentary man, after a while he will let go of his troubles and accept the reality. People accept reality very quickly, let alone a hero who has experienced the chaos of the Ming Dynasty.

So Zhang Qiang didn't worry about Li Guo, but just tried his best to get him to correct his attitude and try to stand up again. On the contrary, Zhang Qiang paid more attention to Gao Jie. , with a very strong self-motivation, Zhang Qiang attached great importance to him, and after the two walked out of the new barracks together, they talked freely all the way.

Finally, watching him walk towards the Huaxia Military Academy, he said to the attendant beside him: "Go and say hello to the training instructor of the military academy, and focus on taking care of this general. After passing the basic subject training, let him enter the military academy to study professional subjects He has already experienced enough battles. This kind of talent can't be justified by the usual theory. Let him simply practice and command the firearms unit for a period of time, and then start to follow the professional courses of the military academy. .”

After talking with Li Guo and Gao Jie, Zhang Qiang has full confidence in the integration of the Dashun Army into the Huaxia Army. Many of these veterans who have fought for many years want to live and work in peace and contentment, and do not want to fight anymore. Moreover, many of them are already old. And the year of Lizhi happened to be in the fields and the era when the children and grandchildren were at their knees. After a period of adaptation, many people scattered among the common people.

There were more than 30 soldiers from the Zhongzheng Camp of the Dashun Army who surrendered, most of them were civilians coerced by them. After these people were screened, there were as many as [-] people. Some of them were assigned to the militia, and they were all young and strong. Or the leader of the overseer, the garrison soldiers who assist the prison camp guards, and the militia brigade work.

The real soldiers of the Dashun Army are only 8000 to 2000 soldiers. These soldiers are loyal to the Dashun Army, and their service life is not long. The longest time is only three years. There are [-] to [-] militia veterans in five or six years. Most of these veterans want to go home and become ordinary people. They are all resettled. The remaining [-] people choose elites to enter the garrison camp and go to some places where there are battles to guard the frontier. .

Some people were assigned to the camp of the loyal camp generals who came over to take refuge. Give these generals some respect and peace of mind. Don’t deprive them of everything as soon as they take refuge. At least one or two hundred servants are left for each of them, scattered in the garrison led by them In the battalion, we will slowly adjust and weaken them in the future.

And those veterans of the Dashun Army who had been around for more than ten years followed the Dashun Army in the South and North Wars. For those generals who were loyal to the generals, the Dashun Army's low-level and middle-level officers were thrown into the Baozhong Mansion, and they went to the coastal islands to give them an opportunity. Official work, let them go to the elderly.

In the future, they will be gradually eliminated, and they will be returned to the common people. Their living standards have been raised to the level of landlords, which is different from the general enemy officers who surrendered. After all, they came here for refuge.

Now the Dashun Army is no longer a threat to the Huaxia Army.

Time flies, and it will be another month in a blink of an eye. The officials of the Ministry of War sent to carry out the division of the navy fleet have completed the division of the navy, and the three navy divisions have been formally established.

According to the feedback information, has He Jin officially left to take office now, and has taken over the third and fourth fleets, and the properties of the two fleets have also been redistributed. Now these two fleets are the same as when Zhang Ying was there, they belong to Huaxia The strongest naval fleet of the Chinese army, although part of the ships and properties originally belonging to the first and second fleets were taken away by the first and second fleets, the third and fourth fleets relied on the leftovers of the first and second fleets With a strong family background, he has successfully become a stronger existence than other fleets.

Maybe not as strong as the first and second fleets, but compared with the other four fleets, they are half as strong. Now the first and second fleets continue to blockade the sea area within a radius of [-] nautical miles along the coast And inspections, restricted Zheng Chenggong's naval fleet to prevent them from approaching the mainland coast, and recover their smuggled items.

Since the military academy took away some naval officers who were good friends with Zheng Chenggong, the third and fourth fleets had only business affairs with Zheng Chenggong's fleet, and had no personal affairs, so as to minimize the collusion between the two parties. In one or two battles, Zheng Chenggong's fleet suffered some losses, lost some pirates harboring pirates, and property, sank some small boats of Zheng Chenggong's fleet, and restored the original tranquility and harmony on the coast.

On the southwestern coast, Ruan Jin, who returned to the navy system, led the fifth and sixth naval fleets, and also stepped up efforts to eliminate the pirates supported by Zheng Chenggong and the Japanese, destroyed many pirate dens, captured Japanese ships, and captured Portugal and the Netherlands Many ships traded with the Qing army, and sank a dozen or so merchant ships that Zheng Chenggong traded with Nanming, captured seven or eight ships, sank three Dutch and Spanish warships sold to them by the Huaxia Army, and returned home. Over the years, they completely suppressed Nanming's maritime trade. After Nanming obstructed the Huaxia Army's land trade, they are now being retaliated by the Huaxia Army's naval fleet, which has almost completely cut off Nanming's maritime trade.

Ruan Jin's tough attitude caused Nanming to send envoys to the Huaxia Army many times to protest and appeal, but unfortunately, the Huaxia Army wanted to block Nanming's trade because of their own losses. The Yongli Daming Army with Li Dingguo can trade, and they can also trade through Zheng Chenggong at sea, but now their trade is completely cut off.

Nanming Kingdom can't produce many things, and the arms trade is banned. They can also imitate them by themselves. After so many years of help from the Huaxia Army and their own explorations, Su Guansheng and Su Zhengqing attach great importance to the development of armaments, so they have made a lot of achievements. Now they can only watch the Huaxia Army's advantage in weapons and they are getting farther and farther away from them, but they have no choice but to equip their own imitation Jinkai 1 matchlock guns. The cannon is also the primary black powder artillery of the Huaxia Army that fires live ammunition.

This is the same as that the Huaxia Army has now entered the era of yellow gunpowder. The artillery has become harder, can withstand the pressure of the new artillery, has a longer range, and is more powerful. It is not a little bit worse.

It is the sorrow of the Chinese nation to be proud of a little achievement, and desperately fight among themselves when life is a little better, and to amass money. This is the tragedy of the Chinese nation, and this is the case in Nanming, which is in a good situation.

Chapter 532 Li Dingguo's Israel in China

Internal troubles and foreign troubles are the portrayal of the current Nanming Kingdom. Zhang Qiang looked at the information and thought about the current situation of the Nanming Kingdom. Contradictions, but each small country is powerful, can be independent, and has its own advantages.

That is not an opponent that can be regarded as a collection of countless countries in Asia, it is simply synonymous with strength.

Another advantage of Nanming is that he appeased the rebellious chieftains in the northwest. At least half of the chieftains are very stable and agree with their existence and management.

And despite the failure of the expedition, they still sent troops and supply teams to supply and help the troops and personnel fighting against the Qing army in the northwest, so that they could hold back the Qing army there, so that the Qing army there would not have time to build the local area. Restore the population and people there.

Where the output will be used by local Qing army officials to support the Qing army's battle against the Huaxia army, or Dajin's battle against the Huaxia army.

This is not allowed, so Zhang Qiang didn't send people there. One is too far away, and the other is that the loss outweighs the gain. Before the southeast, southwest, and north are resolved, Zhang Qiang is not going to march to the northwest.

Under such a tough attitude, some officials of the Nanming Kingdom sat down and talked without pain in their backs. They were still tough, and they still fought against the Huaxia Army, persecuting businessmen and literati who had made good friends with the Huaxia Army before, and even some soldiers who had been taught by the Huaxia Army. He and the generals were persecuted by them, oppressed internally, and smeared tough externally. It doesn't matter how much the money can make the people's lives better. When the people get better, they will feel comfortable when they are officials, and they can be promoted to higher officials. They only care about themselves, and they don't care about the floods behind them.

The current situation in Nanming is like that of the old lady Cixi in the late Qing Dynasty. If you have no choice but to play tricks, you won’t make me feel better, you want to hit me, right? Then I will go to war with all of you, and go to war with more than a dozen countries in one go , completely disregarding the current situation, without any wisdom of struggle.

Looking at the information and intelligence analysis, Zhang Qiang knocked on the table. The naval fleet has been adjusted. Then, people will supply Li Dingguo in Yunnan from Annan. Although the landing at the port is farther away, the current navy of the Huaxia Army is strong. Facing the weak Nanming Navy, the Huaxia Army can easily transport supplies to the Annan Port, and then supply Li Dingguo from the port.

After seeing the situation clearly, Zhang Huangyan, Zhang Liang, and Du Ge went to help Li Dingguo establish a complete system, straighten out administrative affairs, and straighten out the army. It took only two months to stabilize Li Dingguo's headquarters. The people and officials of a large city and dozens of small cities were occupied, and the officials were assessed, trained, and replaced, all using Zhang Huangyan's methods and the Huaxia Army's system.

Du Ge can lead troops, manage generals, and engage in some civil affairs. Wherever Zhang Huangyan is, he is the leader of civil servants. For him, Li Dingguo can rest assured, because Zhang Huangyan is so famous.

Zhang Liang has a good tongue, and when dealing with those ambitious Li Dingguo's subordinates, he is sure, and he sings with Du Ge, coupled with Li Dingguo's inherent majesty, and the support of the Huaxia Army, Li Dingguo's officials and generals are very good. Soon to be subdued, Li Dingguo's headquarters began to enter a period of rapid development.

During this period, the two sides fought with Nanming Kingdom because of several small counties on the border of Guangxi. Li Dingguo went all the way west and fought all the way to the border of Guangxi Prefecture, and re-established contact with the generals who were loyal to him in several small counties. After opening up, there will be a steady stream of supplies and soldiers to supply these small counties to fight against the Nanming Kingdom.

With the passage of time, Zhang Qiang paid close attention to the situation in the west. In three months, Li Dingguo had recovered most of Yunnan Prefecture, and Ruan Jin's Sixth Fleet hit the Haiphong Port in Annan, where it landed, along the Guangxi Prefecture. The border line, all the way into the border of Yunnan Prefecture, transported the materials to Li Dingguo's department.

Li Dingguo's troops came back from the dead, and expanded from [-] troops to [-] troops. Although most of them were troops with cold weapons, there were only three newly trained brigades of recruits, but the three brigades of recruits had already fought against the new army of Nanming Kingdom. After several wars, [-] soldiers were killed and wounded on both sides. Nanming lost several counties, lost a new army, and lost most of Yunnan Province's Guangfu territory, which was retaken by Li Dingguo's department. The area where it is located is wild and wild, with difficult mountain roads, few plains, and a small population, so it cannot develop. The Nanming Kingdom may have been pushed away by Li Dingguo, who was once known as the king of the Liang Jue.

The battle between Li Dingguo's department and the Nanming Kingdom has tied down a large amount of Nanming's troops and energy. The two sides come and go, and the war of words is endless. On the actual battlefield, there are occasional big battles and small battles. When Zhang Qiang gets news again, Nanming is lost. Wu Sangui gathered the remaining Qing troops in Yunguizhou, and took advantage of the fighting between the two sides to take over the territory they regained in Yunguizhou. The dispatch of the Dajin Kingdom quietly observed the changes in the situation. Li Dingguo had nothing to do with him. He withdrew the remaining generals and troops who were destined to be wiped out and loyal to him, and gave up the small amount of territory still living in Yunnan Guizhou , Concentrate on fighting the civil war with Nanming.

And Wu Sangui is very good, he doesn't mess with the troops sent by Nanming Kingdom to fight on the Shaanxi-Gansu, Yunnan-Guizhou borders, and he doesn't develop into Yunnan Prefecture. It seems to want to separate one side.

Seeing such a situation, Zhang Qiang smiled wryly. Wu Sangui was still too cunning. Kangxi, the great emperor who was touted by later generations, took great pains to destroy him. Now he is facing Dajin, Daqing, Nanming, and Zheng Chenggong behind him. , and the Western Spain, the Dutch, the Portuguese, who fully supported the Qing army after being hit hard, and Japan, who always wanted to come to China to get a little oil and water, were surrounded by enemies and potential opponents. He fights the war of words and caters to his taste.

Now Zhang Qiang's thoughts are spent on how to train Li Dingguo to cause trouble for the Nanming Kingdom, so that the Nanming Kingdom can reap the fruits of their own. He doesn't need to send troops to fight him. Let Li Dingguo teach them and weaken them. When this matter is over, he will attack the Qing Dynasty once At that time, when the time comes, Zhang Qiang decided to proceed step by step with the original strategic goal of the third stage, encircling Hong Chengchou's Qing army in a detour.

Take Henan Prefecture, continue to advance to Shandong Prefecture, completely surround Hong Chengchou, and cut off their contact and supplies with the Qing army.

Maybe Li Dingguo will be Zhang Qiang’s Israel in the future, and let him fight Nanming and Wu Sangui. Wu Sangui and Li Dingguo are old rivals. In addition, Zhang Qiang opened up a supply route from Annanbei to Yunnan along Guangxi to supply him. , it must involve the interests of An Nanguo. At that time, Li Dingguo can go to fight An Nanguo. By the way, there is another opponent, the Baimang Dynasty in Burma. They killed Emperor Yongli. The Han emperor is so easy to kill, even if Zhang Qiang If he doesn't want to take revenge, or if he doesn't have time, Li Dingguo will calm down his opponents, and he will fight them when he becomes stronger.

Chapter 533 The Great Qing Dynasty's Dangerous Situation

In Yanjing City in the north, there is a gloomy look. Emperor Shunzhi has been on the throne for many years, and has been in charge of the government for several years, but he has been unable to make the Qing Dynasty stronger.

Liaodong in the north is a bitterly cold place with a small population and limited development. The Qing Dynasty has always controlled the population development there and did not allow the Han people to grow up there. Therefore, the power of the Han people is too weak after all, but the Jurchen Jin people have been relying on their own development. No place has been made prosperous, and it is still poor and poor, and many Jurchens are living in a very difficult life.

If it was normal, if it was when Dorgon was here before, Dorgon was thinking of fighting for hegemony and unifying the Ming Dynasty. Now this is the time for the Qing Dynasty. Hauge competed with the Qing Dynasty for the throne and separated a lot of Qing troops. And the population made the Qing Dynasty weak again.

For this reason, Emperor Shunzhi considered transferring some population to Liaodong and other places, using the foundation laid by the Han people and the cities that the Han people used to guard Daming to develop where they could be used to compete with the aggressive Chinese army. Why is this? ?
