Chapter 702 The right to speak
Early the next morning, Xu Changqing was enjoying Bumubutai and Su Moer serving and having a delicious breakfast in a staid morning. He received news and trends about the departure of Abatai and Ajige tribes.
Although these people ran away overnight in the early morning and were quite secretive, the Model Army not only had hot air balloons patrolling them day and night, but also had many observation points on and below the mountains and underground around them. No matter what their movements were, they could not escape Xu Changqing's eyes.
Haicheng.
Most areas including the Shandong Peninsula are Xu Changqing's territory!
As soon as Xu Changqing heard the news, before Xu Changqing could react, Bumu Butai's pretty face changed first, and said in horror: "Master, they are going to build a plank road openly and secretly travel to Chen Cangna. If this is the case, Qingzhou, Denglai, including Qufu, Jining, Lianghuai and other places, it will be dangerous..."
On the side, Su Moer immediately looked at Bumubutai incredibly.
What's going on?
Why... the Empress Dowager's current position and angle are completely on Xu Changqing's side...
But Bumubutai ignored Su Moer and looked at Xu Changqing worriedly, obviously wanting Xu Changqing to find a solution as soon as possible. After all, this is not a joke.
Last night, although Xu Changqing shared the same bed with BumuButai, if she hadn't touched her.
This also made Bumubutai understand that if she wants to truly live a down-to-earth life with Xu Changqing and even take root, she must first abandon her inherent concepts, truly understand Xu Changqing, and enter Xu Changqing's heart, rather than just a toy.
She is in her early thirties and is getting older and can no longer afford to delay.
Even if her son was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, he was far away in the sky at this time and could not solve the real problem at all.
All of this depends on her.
Xu Changqing smiled and looked at BumuButai, as if very satisfied with her attitude, and said lightly: "It's okay. This is what you expected. Come, Yu'er, have a drink with me."
"Ai……"
Seeing that Xu Changqing didn't care at all, Bumubutai asked her to drink with her and couldn't help but feel speechless.
What kind of heart does this person have? She, an outsider, are almost anxious, but he...
I could only endure the restlessness and drink with Xu Changqing first.
Until after drinking a few glasses of wine, Xu Changqing left with a full meal, Bumubutai finally came to his senses.
What kind of person is Xu Changqing? How could he be beaten passively?
He must have been fully prepared!
Unfortunately, she was excluded from the center of power, but she didn't know what these preparations were...
However, Bumubutai's mood quickly improved. Xu Changqing obviously became much more intimate with her today. As long as she continues to work hard, the future seems not far away.
Only Su Moer still did not come back to her senses and still could not accept Bumubutai's changes.
...
When Xu Changqing arrived at the top of the city, the Qing army had already started bulldozing.
But the bulldozing at this time is completely different from before!
They started to build an earth wall more than two miles outside Haicheng, but it was not an offensive posture, but a quasi-defensive posture.
The earthen wall faces the sea city, which is actually a deep trench. Many real Manchus, regardless of the stuffy morning, were shirtless and shovels, working hard in the trench.
Looking around, the earthen wall fortification was extremely long, and it had stretched for more than ten miles at this time. Outside, there were many Qing army rangers pointing fingers, marking something, as if they were trying to encircle the entire Haicheng.
"Lord, the Tartars have changed their temperament. Hehe, it seems that they have not been in vain for the lessons learned in the past few years."
Li Yan, Yang Zhongliang, Li Hongyun, Zhao Zengjin, Zhang Long, and Hongniangzi rushed over to participate in the morning military convention.
I don't know if I have taken another concubine
Because of this, Li Yan was in a very good mood, with joy between the lines, and he did not take the Qing army's siege seriously.
The same is true for the other generals, including the Hong Niang, who has always been cautious.
This is mainly because Xu Changqing had been planning a solution to the Qing army after entering the country for a long time. At this time, Xu Changqing's "gentlemen training policy" had already blossomed and bear fruit in Shandong, including Lianghuai and many other regions.
The Qing army's entry into the country this time was definitely inevitable, but it would be difficult for them to defeat the big city, such as Qufu and Jining!
Long before the Qing army entered the country, the alarm from Haicheng had been sent to all directions, and it was not easy for the Qing army to plunder the population!
This is the right to speak!
A few years ago, Xu Changqing was definitely unable to achieve such huge regional guidance and orders, but at this time, his prestige was at its peak and he held the "Haicheng Morning Post". To a large extent, Xu Changqing's voice among the people was greater and more effective than the imperial court.
The wisdom of the people is endless.
As long as Xu Changqing controls this general direction, the people will have already been unable to help but have a lot of war. Reality will make all the Qing army units have a good drink.
However, although the situation is under control and everyone is relaxed, Xu Changqing still dares not neglect. After a few jokes, his face became solemn: "Dorgon and his memory are not a good thing for us. The Qing army did not attack the city at this time because they wanted to trap us in the city. This is not a good sign. If there is no accident, we may have to fight with them on the front. The Political Affairs Office and the military must respond in advance and make plans!"
Seeing Xu Changqing's serious expression, everyone was also serious expression. They nodded respectfully and said yes.
At this time, whether it was the bosses of the Political Affairs Bureau or the generals of the military, to a large extent, they were spokespersons of the emerging bourgeoisie. In the process of the continuous development and growth of Haicheng over the years, they were all the greatest vested interests. Naturally, they understood how much damage would the Qing army's besieging Haicheng cause to Haicheng.
After the regular meeting, everyone quickly went to work hard, and Hongniang didn't even have the intention to come and have warmth with Xu Changqing again.
Xu Changqing was also happy. At this time, he also needed time to calm down and hold a head-on finale.
At this time, although the Model Army had some suppression on the Qing army in multiple dimensions, it was still difficult to fight the front.
The Qing army's firearms seemed to be inferior to those of the model army, but not too much.
Especially Kong Youde's "Wuzhen Chaoha Camp" is even better than the Model Army in some aspects!
Especially the red cannon.
The artillery battalion of the Model Army lacks support and is destined to be difficult to maximize its mobility, but the mobility of the Wuzhen Chaoha Camp is like an arm to use its fingers.
Even if it is a solid bullet at this time and it is not yet the era of flower bullets, if you are not careful about this thing, it may lead to devastating consequences.
In addition, the Qing army also had a simple version of the copycat flowering bullet at this time, including the copycat burning bombs and other semi-modern weapons. It is really hard to say if you really want to pull it out and try to hit the top of the mask.
Not to mention the huge cavalry advantage of the Qing army.
The only thing that the Model Army has absolute suppression is the hot air balloon!
However, the disadvantages of hot air balloons are also obvious, and the throwing is not accurate enough.
Once the melee with the Qing army, the two sides would mix together and the hot air balloons would not be easy to play.
Therefore, this head-on decisive battle, if it doesn’t open, it will be a river of blood, and one general will succeed in a situation where thousands of bones are woven!
In addition, Xu Changqing must be very cautious even if he retreats even if he wins and retreats after winning!
Of course, Xu Changqing had already made a decision.
Even if Xu Changqing is stingy with his sons' lives, the tough battles and scenes he should have must be missing!
This is not only about the general trend, but also about the destiny of the country, and the future of the entire Han nation, including its spirit and spirit!
Xu Changqing
While calmly thinking and examining the battle formation of the Qing army, Dorgon and others were also looking at Haicheng condescendingly on a newly built platform five or six miles away.
At this time, Dorgon sent out most of the elite rangers. Although there were many elite troops from Abatai, Ajige, Tan Bai, Oboi and others, more of them were still "miscellaneous".
Dorgon was not stupid. He always kept the two most elite white flags and the two yellow flags in the Qing Dynasty.
Including Jirgalang, Haoge, Daishan and others, they have never been released.
He must maintain control of the overall situation.
"Everyone, do you have any good opinions? Let's cause some trouble for Xu Changqing?"
There are many servants on the platform quickly building a pergola, but before it gets up, the vicious sunlight makes everyone feel uncomfortable.
The military officials were better, but the delicate civil officials felt a little uncomfortable.
When what Dorgon said at this time was not "breaking the city", but "making some trouble", Hong Chengchou couldn't help but sigh.
A mistake will lead to eternal regret.
Originally, he should have enjoyed this kind of glory and reputation with Xu Changqing...
But at this point, the wood was already in its fortitude and the bride had become a sister-in-law. Hong Chengchou could only suppress his thoughts and pondered: "Regent, we should not be anxious in the opinion of the ministers. It is enough to siege Haicheng at this time. We still have to be patient and wait for news from the departments ahead to come. However, we can send someone to talk to Xu Changqing. After all, although the previous armistice agreement was already time, our Qing Dynasty did not first attack their Ming court. In this regard, Xu Changqing had no place to stand."
Everyone nodded, Fan Wencheng, Sony, and Jirgalang all agreed.
no way.
Haicheng has unique location advantages. Even if they surrounded Haicheng, they could not solve the problem and could not cause trouble for Xu Changqing.
It is impossible for them to approach the many docks on the east coast of Haicheng.
It can only be artificially "increasing trouble" to Xu Changqing.
Ning Wan, I originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make good use of it, but after thinking about it, he suddenly realized that he could not find a way...
I could only illuminate a bag of cigarettes in a depressed manner, sighing at the changing world.
Once upon a time, the Qing Dynasty had always been a blow to the Ming Dynasty, and there was no reason for it, but at this time...
He is a little confused now. Is it correct that he chooses to start again in the Qing Dynasty?
After discussing for a while, everyone decided to go to Haicheng with Xu Changqing's old acquaintance, Hong Chengchou and Sony, to give Xu Changqing a note.
Sony really doesn't want to get involved in this job. He has talked with Xu Changqing several times and knows who Xu Changqing is.
But everyone was worried about Hong Chengchou. He had to keep an eye on him, so as to avoid Xu Changqing and Hong Chengchou having any shameful things and causing the Qing Dynasty to suffer a great loss.
Soon, Sony and Hong Chengchou held the white flag and carefully approached the control area of the Model Army outside Haicheng.
When he came to the familiar and majestic Haicheng again, Hong Chengchou felt a lot of emotion.
How could I think that the clever young army head of the young man who had inadvertently grew into a towering tree covering the sky and the sun, and even the whole world had to rely on his breath...
Sony was about the same, thinking in his heart, "If Xu Changqing had not existed, how great would it be? I'm afraid the Qing Dynasty had already completely unified the north and used troops to Jiangnan."
The two of them had already understood Xu Changqing's temperament. Although they came to raise troops to question, they could not raise their aura at all. When they saw the Thousand General Officer on duty of the Model Army coming to investigate, Sony immediately gave up a smile and asked for help: "This brother, please don't bother you, Master Binghaicheng, and Master Hong Chengchou, the Minister of Political Affairs of the Qing Dynasty, and Lord Hong Chengchou, the Right Minister of War. Please see Marquis of Haicheng..."
