The end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 185 Study Discussion

Wu Sangui in Wuchang saw that his father's family had arrived, but his concubine Chen Yuanyuan was late, and even the news was broken. Wu Sangui began to be anxious. So he hurriedly ordered someone to inquire. Wu Sangui's heart was gloomy. He knew that Chen Yuanyuan was afraid that it would be unpredictable. Thinking of this, Wu Sangui regretted it.

"Be sure to find out who cut off my beloved concubine. I must take revenge!"

Because the people who protected Chen Yuanyuan died, and no people saw it at that time, it was difficult for Wu Sangui to find out. In a few months, I'm afraid he couldn't find Chen Yuanyuan's whereabouts.

Now Hu Guangcheng announced that the political envoy was divided by Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi. Among them, Wu Sangui occupied Wuchang Mansion, Hanyang Mansion, Huangzhou Mansion, Chenzhou Mansion, De'an Mansion, Changsha Mansion, Hengzhou Mansion, Yongzhou Mansion, Liping Mansion, as well as Linjiang Mansion, Nanchang Mansion and Jiujiang Mansion in Jiangxi. Wu Sangui took Wuchang Mansion as the location of the royal palace of the King of Chu. Shang Kexi occupies Yunyang Mansion, Xiangyang Mansion, Jingzhou Mansion, Yue Mansion, Changde Mansion, Baoqing Mansion and Chengtian Mansion, and takes Xiangyang Mansion as the location of King Xiang's Mansion.

Among them, Wu Sangui is relatively close to Nanzhili, and the two are directly adjacent to each other. Therefore, Wu Sangui is more threatening to Nan Zhili. If Wu Sangui sent troops to attack Nanzhili, Nanjing could basically not defend it, but now Wu Sangui has just stood firm in Nanchang, so he has no ability to expand.

Liu Xia's study in Luoyang Zheng Guogong's mansion. Chen Liu, Wang Shitou, Shou Hu, and some new third-level sergeants who joined the military department stood around Liu Xia. On Liu Xia's table is a newly drawn map, which is a national map that divides different administrative areas in different colors.

Chen Liu stepped forward, smiled and said, "General, you see, this is us. At present, our actual jurisdiction is still Henan Prefecture, Guide Prefecture, Kaifeng Prefecture, Ruzhou Prefecture, and we have no actual control of Runing Prefecture, Nanyang Prefecture and other places. The Huguang area is now divided by Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi. Sichuan has Zhang Xianzhong's Daxi regime. The Nanzhili area is the territory of Nanming. In the north is the Qing army. That is to say, on this small land of China, there are now a total of six regimes, and now the world is in chaos.

Liu Xia frowned and nodded, "The military division is right. The world is in chaos. The people are the most miserable. I don't know how many people will die every day."

Meng Yu came forward and said respectfully, "The general doesn't have to be sad. Under the leadership of the general, the people of the four prefectures in Henan live and work in peace and contentment, which is much better than other places. Nowadays, many people from other places have poured into the areas under our control."

Liu Xia nodded and said, "If it is an ordinary people, let them come in, and then arrange some wasteland and so on for them to rent. At the same time, it is stipulated that anyone's land belongs to the government, and no one is allowed to buy or sell land without approval!"

If you are not allowed to buy or sell land, you don't have to worry about mergers and acquisitions. Of course, it is certain that there are policies and countermeasures, but the degree of mergers will also be greatly reduced. If Liu Xia checks it from time to time, the problem of mergers is likely to fall to freezing point.

Chen Liu took out a piece of rice paper from his arms, which was full of fonts. Liu Xia handed it to Liu Xia with both hands and said, "General, this is our battle plan for next year. According to the general's instructions, the key areas to attack next year will be Shaanxi, Gansu and other places.

Liu Xia took the rice paper and opened it. After a long time, Liu Xia looked at it, nodded slightly and said, "That's right, Wang En."

Liu Xia's voice fell, and Wang En came out, bowed to Liu Xia, and said, "I'm here."

"Wang En, we will start to attack Shaanxi in March next year. Although the Qing army in Shaanxi does not have many troops, the territory is very large, so there are many troops sent, so your logistics department must be prepared for logistics. Never let the logistics drop the chain."

Wang En's face became serious. After hearing Liu Xia's words, he said, "Yes! I understand."

"If we send troops to Shaanxi, I'm afraid that Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi in the south will not be idle, and if Wu Sangui knows, Chen Yuanyuan's matter... I'm afraid that our troops have not been deployed yet." Chen Liu said his worries. Now, although he has won the battle with the Qing army, the damage is not small. Now the newly recruited troops and the captured troops have not left the new regiment. That is to say, Liu Xia can use less than 10,000 troops now, and this needs to be placed in different places.

"If Wu Sangui knew that Chen Yuanyuan was killed... then Wu Sangui would really lead him to kill 10,000 horses. After all, when he was in Shanhaiguan, he heard that it was because of this woman who harmed the country and the people opened Shanhaiguan and surrendered to the Manchurian people, which led to the current scene. If the general doesn't deal with Chen Yuanyuan's secret, and then throw the corpse into the Hebei area, quietly creating a Qing army chasing and killing. Wang En said casually, but this Chen Yuanyuan was finally obtained by Liu Xia. How can it be so easy to kill? What's more, this war is a man's business. How can you kill a woman to avoid it because of fear?

"No." Meng Yu first objected, so he continued: "If there is a war, there will be a war. We are not afraid of him, Wu Sangui. Now Wu Sangui may not be able to send troops to fight us. According to the news of the Dragon Group, Wu Sangui led less than 10,000 horses to the Wuchang area and fought with the local Ming army, although in the end he captured a lot of Ming army. The army, but his direct troops also lost a lot. Except for Wu Sangui's direct troops, the combat effectiveness of other soldiers is very weak, and we have no need to worry at all. And now Wu Sangui and Shang are not happy. If Wu Sangui leads troops to attack us, then Wu Sangui's family members who stayed in Wuchang are likely to be caught by the nearby Shang Kexi and occupy the territory occupied by Wu Sangui at the same time.

Chen Liu thought for a moment and said to Meng Yu, "Meng Commander, is there anyone outsider who knows about Chen Yuanyuan?"

Meng Yu frowned and said, "In addition to some generals, I know it from those present." Chen Liu said, "In this case, Commander Meng quickly went to arrange a robbery | robbery, and then looked for a woman wearing Chen Yuanyuan's clothes to replace Chen Yuanyuan, and then buried it. Even if Wu Sangui found it, the woman was also rotten at that time, and Wu Sangui could only accept it without a face." Meng Yu said, "The military master said it well. I'll arrange it in a minute."

Liu Xia said, "Even if there is no reason for Chen Yuanyuan, if we send troops to Shaanxi, I'm afraid Wu Sangui will not be idle. He will definitely take advantage of the emptyness of our troops to attack Luoyang."

Chen Liu nodded and said, "The general is reasonable. Wu Sangui was originally our great enemy, and this man is a traitor. Although he was independent from the Manchu Qing Dynasty and became the king in Huguang at this time, it is not ruled out that if he still has contact with the Qing army. If a large number of our troops went to Shaanxi, Wu Sangui may join hands with the Qing Dynasty again. The north-south attack besieged us. With the last lesson, if the Qing army sent troops again, it might not have made the same mistake. I'm afraid it's a little difficult for us to defeat it.

"The general's subordinates believe that the Qing army in Shaanxi has been taken away by Wang Wenkui in the last battle, that is to say, there are not many troops in Shaanxi at this time, so why do we send a large number of troops to Shaanxi? I think you only need to send Ying Yangwei and a brigade. Ying Yangwei and a brigade strength of no more than 9,000.

Chen Liu continued: "Now we have occupied Tongguan and mastered the gateway to Shaanxi. With Tongguan, we can enter, attack, retreat and defend. And according to the Shaanxi army, the combat effectiveness is generally poor. Therefore, you only need to use a regiment of troops to guard Tongguan, the remaining troops and Ying Yangwei to Shaanxi, and at the same time send an artillery battalion to take Shaanxi. After all, today's Shaanxi people have few soldiers, and it is desolate.

Liu Xia nodded with approval.

At this time, a guard came in and said to Liu Xiagong, "General, a letter from the Tahri at this time." After saying that, he handed it to Liu Xia. Liu Xia locked her eyebrows and opened the letter. It said that she wanted to make a deal with Liu Xia and asked Liu Xia to let Azige go. Liu Xia read it and handed the letter to the rest of the people.

Chen Liu said, "General, this Azige is a tiger general. If we put him back, won't we let the tiger go back to the mountain? It will be difficult to catch him next time."

Liu Xia nodded and said, "If what the military commander said is reasonable, then ignore it."
