Chapter 1053: Drive the Tigers and Swallow the Wolfs to Destroy the Enemy Country (3)

Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pou Nu Army, angrily scolded the artillery commander Yang Meimei, but did not scare this general who wanted to make military achievements desperately. The old brothers of the Pou Nu Army knew that it was not scary for Zhang to curse people, but they were afraid that Zhang would be rewarded with their military merits. Yang Meimei was not stupid. Zhang only deducted monthly salary and did not mention his military merits, which means that Zhang was just talking. Sure enough, Zhang, who had just cursed people, lifted up his quilt and stood up to arrange a military discussion. Before Xu Qiang had time to persuade him, Zhang Dashuai stood in front of everyone wearing only a small silk dress with two big white legs covered in sweat. From the surprised eyes of the brothers in the tent, Zhang Ping'an, who felt the legs were chilling, suddenly realized that he had left. Fortunately, there were all men in the tent. In order to cover up the embarrassment, he took the cloak from the guard Sun Xigui and wrapped himself up, and then slowly walked to the sandproof table in Chenyang City to meditate.

The smartest person in the tent was Gu Xin, the chief of staff. The boss looked at the exposed thighs on the map and shook slightly, and all of them implying that someone brought him a pair of pants. So, Gu Xin brought two pairs of cotton and leather pants from the foot of the bed, while explaining to Zhang Ping'an the strategy of attacking Chenyang North City: "Master, in this battle to attack Chenyang, the General Staff believed that the Libing Battalion used two feint attacks to cover the decisive chariots to approach the city wall. The tunnel excavated by Zhang De's unit of the Engineering Battalion was less than sixteen feet away from the city wall. These two secret passages led to two corner towers east and west of the north wall. The two sections of the city wall were buried here to blow up the two sections of the city wall and block the enemy's reinforcements from here. The General Staff expected that the decisive chariots and the decisive chariots in the secret passage could explode at the same time, and the Libing Battalion attacked Chenyang North City once!"

Zhang Ping'an, who was secretly sensible in his heart, listened to his ears while wearing pants and serving Zhang Ping'an's daily life, Sun Xigui, who brought out his coat and helped Zhang Dashuai to sort out the folds on his back clothes. Zhang Ping'an turned his face and nodded unanimously to the general staff's plan and just smiled. Then Zhang Ping'an sat in front of the sand table again and retorted: "You little guy talked about the tactics we hope for. The Qing Dynasty has established the capital here for many years. How can we succeed easily? We have to think of the enemy as cunning. The barracks excavation secretly told me that this matter should be slowed down. The artillery team sent a few staff members to the engineers. Every time the artillery team opened fire, the engineers were excavating again, using the sound of artillery to cover the sound of excavation. In addition, this decisive chariot cannot only hit the frontal city wall, but also attack the corner towers on both sides. The corner tower is extremely hidden, and I can't see what's underneath when I stand on the command tower. I expect Dorgon must have ambushed here. Maybe the Qing army has also buried a large tank here to find out the tunnels of my engineers camp!"

After saying that, Zhang Ping'an took the tea bowl handed over by Sun Xigui and took a sip of milk tea to moisten his throat. Then he said, "If you want to play the combination of virtual and real tactics, you must accidentally attack him without any preparation. First, use the decisive chariot to blow up the north city wall, and then focus on the horn towers on both sides. Hahaha! But this corner tower is the thickest place in the city wall. I guess one or two decisive chariots will not play any role. But we need to create an illusion for the defenders, that is, digging the secret passage is fake, and using the decisive chariot It is true that the dead chariots exploded the city wall. In the end, the problem must be solved by the engineer battalion. Do you understand what I mean? Anyway, there are still a few days left, and the General Staff will make a new strategy for me. When attacking the Blade Battalion, you must pay attention to the importance of the two wings. You must first defend the two wings on the first attack. Let the auxiliary soldiers help you build a temporary bunker at the height of the city wall. With these two footholds, you will not be afraid that the Qing army will be driven down from the middle of the Blade Battalion when it counterattacks."

Obviously, Hu Ming, the commander of the Blade Battalion, was extremely dissatisfied with Boss Zhang's prediction that they would be driven down from the city wall by the Qing army. He was quite dissatisfied and said: "Master, as long as you give the Blade Battalion sufficient ammunition, the subordinates guarantee that the headquarters will not let Jiannu go to the city wall!"

"Get out! You have less ammunition stored in the hob? Who told you not to let the Qing army go up to the city wall? When fighting, you should be flexible. Put the enemy up appropriately and then defeat them is the tactic of consuming their power. Don't worry about temporary gains and losses, you have to consider the overall situation, brother!" After Zhang Ping'an said this, Hu Ming understood what he was selling in the gourd. Boss Zhang needed the Blade Battalion to make the illusion of repeatedly fighting for the North City Wall of Chenyang, seducing the Qing army to counterattack again and again and then consume the enemy's combat power. I thought that the Blade Battalion had snatched the first soup in this Chenyang attack, but I didn't expect that the Blade Battalion was better than the Heavenly Battalion. The Blade Battalion ended up consuming the enemy's troops.

.........

As the rebel army approached the capital of the Ming Dynasty step by step, the court fell into extreme panic. Emperor Chongzhen issued an edict to the nearby Ming army to enter the guards to serve the king, but only 25,000 elderly, weak and remnants arrived at the capital. Chen Xinjia, the Minister of War, summoned the group camp, Shenji camp and other garrisons to the city wall, and the martial law orders of the capital were also issued. Just as the capital was in a panic, a 4,700 cavalry defeated the slave army to serve the king from the outside of the pass came from the Killanggou outside the pass. This cavalry army brought 1,780 baggage carts, and 160 crossbow box carts and fifty war chariots. Haohao In a wild move into Zhangjiazhuang outside Xizhimen. At the same time, a baggage caravan also appeared from Tianjin Guard. This caravan was under the banner of the Xuanwei envoy of the Pou Nucheng, transporting 17,000 stones of food to the capital. On the surface, the Pou Nu Army responded to the call of Emperor Chongzhen to enter the capital to serve the king, but no one could understand the true thoughts of the pseudo-foreign vassal of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Ping'an, who was shocked by the treacherous thieves, was still bright enough, but thousands of Pou Nu Army in Zhangjiazhuang outside Xizhimen were able to protect themselves in front of the millions of thieves and attack the enemy.

But the attitude of the Pou Nu Army is worthy of recognition. After all, the main force of the Pou Nu Army is attacking Jiannu's capital in Liaodong. At this critical moment, the Ming Dynasty court had no reason to accuse the Pou Nu Army of not coming to rescue the capital. It was not until this moment that the ministers of the Ming Dynasty realized that the Duke of China Zhang Ping'an was so terrible. Over the years, the Pou Nu Army has been using the internal and external troubles of the Ming Dynasty to make a fuss. He did all the bad things to be a * and set up a archway. This time, the Duke of China announced early that the troops were sent to Liaodong, which made the situation amazing. Not only did everyone know that, they even suggested to the thieves that the troops in Ponu City were empty. Now, after the early temptation of the Investigation Army captured seven cities in Zhili, but the Ponu Army did not have a large army to dispatch it. It was determined that the Duke of China, Zhang Ping'an, would not enter the pass before the victory or defeat was decided on the Liaodong battlefield. Without the restraint of the Ponu Army, the Investigation Army could boldly rush towards the direction of the capital. Wang Pu, the general of Datong, received the imperial edict and appeared in Zijing Pass, but the 10,000 reinforcements of the Kings were asked for money from the court when they arrived at Zijing Pass.

In the name of reinforcements from all walks of life who came to the capital to serve the king, there were all the old, weak and disabled soldiers who came to ask for the owed wages. Although Emperor Chongzhen sold a large number of ancient books and calligraphy in the inner court in the name of rewarding Duke of China, Duke of China Zhang Ping'an paid a huge amount of gold and silver in the name of tribute, which could not resist the repeated increase of a group of corrupt officials in the court to suppress the wages. Especially in the north of the Ming Dynasty, the tax on the north of the Ming Dynasty was drought and frequent wars could not be collected, and the tax on Jiangnan was repeatedly increased, forcing a large number of land-owned people to go bankrupt. The bureaucrats who owned the vast majority of the land did not need to pay taxes. The annual tax on the Ming Dynasty reduced from more than four million to less than two million taels of silver. .Officials need to pay silver to support their families, and the officials who wiped out the rebel army did not see the money and did not fight. The court officials could only ask Emperor Chongzhen to pay silver from the inner treasury. Emperor Chongzhen, who was forced by the court officials, had to pay silver from the inner treasury again and again. The millions of taels of silver tribute paid by the Chinese duke did not leave the capital. These corrupt officials took the silver out of the inner treasury, first shared the spoils with the eunuchs in the internal treasury, and then put most of the silver into their pockets according to the size of the official position. In this chaotic world, the safest place to store silver is the only one in the Zhangjiazhuang Posou City Xuanwei Envoy Department stationed in Beijing.

As the rebel army approached the capital, several transactions of Duke Hua from Xizhimen closed down one after another. Only Zhangjiazhuang's "Yin Guangju" silver building was still exchanging a small amount of gold. As for the silver building "Yin Guangju" silver building, the silver building had refused to accept it. What made the capital's nobles and officials even more angry was that the rebel army cut off all the roads to Nanzhili, and the Ponucheng Xuanwei, who could take the sea route, did not know why the officials of the yamen did not collect cash. Several nobles once hired several sea boats to smuggle silver to Nanzhili, but the result was that the few sea boats disappeared on the sea. Millions of silver were enough to make the nobles and officials of Zhili,

The wealthy businessmen suffered heavy losses, and the disappearance of people and ships together made the road of smuggling silver from the sea completely cut off. These nobles in the capital who suffered heavy losses could roughly guess that it might be the navy of the Po Slave Army, but there was no evidence that it was a business done by Duke Hua. The dumb mansion was too much to catch the Duke Hua Mansion. These wealthy and powerful nobles wanted to send someone to Yuetuo Island to bribe Zhao Huchen, the manager of Duke Hua Mansion, and wanted to find out the whereabouts of the ship transporting silver. As a result, after taking the money, Zhao Huchen gave the ships that the ships were sunk when they encountered a typhoon.

Regarding Zhao Huchen's words, please make these nobles crazy. A typhoon on the northern sea surface in the winter is not a good thing for you, the Navy of the Desubs Army. The loss of the Zhou Kui family in China was the most severe. He was angry but ran to Queen Zhou to complain, which scared Queen Zhou so much that she hurriedly drove her father Zhou Kui out of the palace. Emperor Chongzhen was worried about the silver all day long, and asked the nobles in the capital to donate money without any response. As a result, these nobles smuggled out millions of taels of silver. Isn't this the emperor's handle to deal with these people? The first shocking case on the 17th year of Chongzhen disappeared, and no one mentioned the case in the entire capital except the emperor did not know.
