At the same time, Duduo also completed the pre-war military talks.
His deployment was basically left to the guessing of Prince Kong Dai... In fact, it was not difficult to guess. Thanks to Emperor Shunzhi, Duduo was dealt a bad hand and had no choice at all, so he had to fight with Kong Dai fought a majestic battle - and this majestic battle between the armies in the transitional stage of using hot and cold weapons was probably the thing that Prince Kong Dai was most familiar with.
Isn’t this how the Thirty Years’ War was fought? Kong Dai has been learning these things since he was a child, and he still guesses wrong?
And Duduo is on the verge of crying now, regretting it to death... What kind of uncle is he? Jieshishan entered Beijing after the war and directly usurped the throne. No, we can't say usurpation. It should be just to take back his own throne, right?
But he was soft-hearted for a moment and did not kill Shunzhi with a single shot. He also let him manage the small territory in Guan by himself.
I thought that Shunzhi would stay in Beijing and hold on to it... Beijing is such a solid city, and it has been painstakingly managed since Dorgon's lifetime, and I don't know how much money it has spent. As long as Shunzhi defends until death, he can consume a lot of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, or at least a lot of food for the Ming army, right?
When Duduo leads the army from outside the pass and Mobei to attack, are you afraid that he will not be able to drive away the Ming army under the fortified city of Dunbing?
But Shunzhi didn't know what medicine he took wrongly, so he went out of the city to command the army to fight the Ming Army's Northern Expedition.
Who does he think he is? Li Shimin?
Now, let’s have people gather around Tianjin Wei and wait for my good uncle to fish it out...
Duduo also had to fish it out. His long-planned plan for a decisive battle on the Yellow River had been ruined - no one expected that the Ming Dynasty was so capable of digging earth and building dams! Moreover, Emperor Zhu was spending money on truck after truck to hire servants to help start the construction... He was simply bullying the poor! How unjust!
Without the decisive battle of the Yellow River, the siege of Tianjin Guards would be related to the survival of the Qing Dynasty!
No matter how shameless Shunzhi was, he was still the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. If he surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, then the Qing Dynasty's territory in the pass would collapse!
If everything is lost inside the pass, the Ming army's "black gun and mule soldiers" will harass them outside the pass all day long. By then, just the delay in farming time and the additional military service will make the bannermen and bannermen under Duduo bankrupt...
The bannermen and bannermen were all bankrupt, and the Qing Dynasty was completely gone!
So Duduo can only fight this battle head on.
After completing the battle deployment, Duduo didn't sleep all night. He sat alone in his tent and asked someone to bring out the tablets of his father Nurhachi and his brother Dorgon and place them in front of him. A living person and two tablets sat facing each other all night.
When it was getting brighter, the voice of Baya Lazhangjing Zhandai suddenly came from outside the big tent: "Uncle Emperor, the smoke is rising in the Nanman camp!"
Duduo responded: "Ah... they are going to send troops! I didn't expect them to take the initiative."
This was a bit unexpected. Duduo felt that the advantage was on his side. He had more cavalry and he also occupied a favorable location. Therefore, the Ming army is likely to dig trenches and defend... Unexpectedly, they actually took the initiative to attack!
He paused and said, "Send orders to all camps to bury pots to make rice, prepare rations for three days, and prepare a delicious meal... When is it now?"
"Yinshi Sanji!"
"Okay, at three o'clock in the morning, the three armies will have a full meal. At one quarter in the morning, everyone will gather together!" Duduo took a deep breath and said, "I will order each battalion Zhang Jing to meet with the central army at three o'clock in the morning!"
"嗻!"
...
Shi Kefa also didn't sleep all night, because winning this battle today is directly related to Donglu's survival!
If the fight is successful, Donglu, which has been causing trouble since the Wanli period, will inevitably perish... Maybe it can be delayed a little longer, whether it is delayed for five years or eight years, in the end it will be It is going to fail.
And he, Shi Kefa, will also go down in history because of this "Battle of Victory Lake"... He whispered in a low voice: "Desheng Lake... what a good name!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of clanging armors clashing outside, and then he saw the curtain of the big tent being opened, and a group of generals who had already put on plate armor and had swords hanging from their belts stepped away. Come in.
The generals are all dressed similarly, with red jackets and black plate armor, and their helmets are also black - ordinary soldiers in the Ming army now wear black breastplates and black helmets, and some of the richer ones will also wear arm armor for themselves. Therefore, the appearance of senior officers on the battlefield is not very eye-catching.
Shi Kefa looked at the generals and asked with concern: "Have they all eaten?"
"have eaten!"
"Eat them all!"
"The men are also starting to move..."
Before the war begins, of course, there is a hearty meal!
Shi Kefa nodded: "Okay! Do you all know the responsibilities you have to bear today?"
"knew!"
"My subordinates know!"
"The general already knows..."
Nowadays, the command and operations of the Ming army are actually carried out through the staff. The governor-general Shi Kefa is just talking. The staff of the governor-general's palace led by Qi Yuanbi and Prince Kong Dai will organize various combat groups (usually divisions or regiments, and sometimes they will be transferred or The combat plan (strengthening some troops and sometimes forming new clusters) is sent to the cluster staff, and then the cluster troops are deployed under the leadership of the cluster commander. If the general is too lazy to take care of things, nothing can be done if he leaves them to the army and staff officers below.
However, Shi Kefa still has to say a few words of care.
"Gao Jieshuai." He called Gao Jie's name first.
"The end will be here."
"You are in the lead, so you can't defeat the Donglu infantry!" Shi Kefa said, "You have to lure them out... Whether Vice General Li leads the cavalry to make a successful detour depends on you!"
Gao Jie laughed and stroked his beard: "The last general is the best at cheating defeat... The last general has led troops for many years, and he has quite a lot of experience in this way!"
Shi Kefa nodded and said to himself: I know you are the best at winning battles. It seems you can't be wrong!
"Lieutenant General Li," Shi Kefa said to Li Yuanyin, the deputy general of the cavalry in the Governor's Mansion, "I've given you eight cavalry battalions! Can you survive in Shengdian?"
"Governor, please relax," Li Yuanyin assured, patting his chest. "The cavalry under my command are all experienced in fighting. They are best able to fight hard and melee. They are not afraid of the terrain no matter how complicated it is."
"General Wang (the division commander is now also called General Soldier)," Shi Kefa then said to Wang Qi, "You are a guard of the emperor, and the division you lead is also the best among the best... The battle on the left wing has everything to do with it. Whether the army lives or dies, I only trust you."
Wang Qi had become a division commander as early as the 17th year of Chongzhen. In the past ten years, he had been ups and downs in the positions of division commander and regiment commander, but he could never go any further - his good relationship with Emperor Zhu did not mean that he could escape the last position. disuse! In fact, Wang Qi's level of leading troops was not very good, and it was indeed difficult for him to shoulder his responsibilities.
Therefore, the positions of governor, admiral, and military advisor are never his turn...
But if he can achieve great success in today's decisive battle, then there will be no problem in going further!
"Please don't worry, Commander!" Wang Qi said loudly, "With the subordinates on the left wing, there will be nothing wrong!"
Shi Kefa nodded: "Okay!" He raised his fists and bowed in the air, "Today's battle is related to our great cause of reviving the Ming Dynasty. I hope you will fight bravely to repay your kindness!"
...
"Emperor Taizu Gao is alive...invincible!"
"Expedition to the North to the Central Plains and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty!"
At a quarter of a second, shocking slogans began to ring out in the Ming army camp, and the entire military camp suddenly boiled.
The tens of thousands of soldiers under Shi Kefa's command have long been looking forward to this decisive battle in which they can reap military glory!
Since the Northern Expedition, everyone knows how good the Donglu are, and no one is afraid of the enemy anymore.
Since the enemy is not very powerful, then the opportunity to earn military merit has come - the military merit of the Northern Expedition has already been marked with a price, land, real estate, silver, title... Emperor Zhu did not engage in nationalist propaganda, except Pretending to be the reincarnation of Emperor Taizu Gao, he still used tangible benefits to motivate the war.
To be honest, most of the benefits from conquering the Northland belong to these soldiers!
As an emperor, Zhu Cixiang was very kind to his subordinates...
