Anti-Qing: Starting from the Reincarnation of the Ming Dynasty

All in all, the situation in Shanxi is not very good now!

In fact, not only Shanxi, but also the entire Qing Dynasty was in chaos due to civil war and disaster victims.

When Yong Lin heard this, he looked a little depressed.

How long has it been since he took the throne? Why has the world become like this?

You know, when Qianlong was still alive, the Qing Dynasty was in decline.

But it is just a decline in the country's power. It will take some time for the country to be subjugated.

But now?

It had only been a few months since he Yonglin succeeded to the throne, but the power of the Qing Dynasty had already gone from declining to precarious.

What the hell is this thing called?

Yonglin felt that she was sorry for the Qing Dynasty, and even more sorry for Huang Ama's trust.

After hearing Qinggui's words, Yonglin looked thoughtful and obviously confused.

Li Shiyao on the side said quickly.

"Master, now is the time when our Qing Dynasty's survival is at stake. Master, please make a decision as soon as possible and stop procrastinating."

Facing Li Shiyao's urging, Yonglin took a deep breath and said as if she had made up her mind,

"Send the order and ask all the ministries in the DPRK and China to prepare for the relocation immediately."

"Li Yu, go and draft an edict for me now. I, I want to abdicate!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other and immediately responded in unison.

"twitter!"

At this critical moment, Yonglin acted very decisively.

Without any hesitation, he made the decision to abdicate immediately and then retreat to Shanxi.

Seeing this, Li Shiyao also spoke.

"The Emperor's Holy Ming..."

Suddenly, Yonglin seemed to remember something and spoke.

"By the way, where is General Fukang'an now?"

If Yonglin wants to retreat to Shanxi, the army is definitely the most important thing.

If he didn't have an army loyal to him, even if he went to Shanxi, he would still be destined to be a puppet.

Fukang'an has become more and more important to Yonglin now.

After Li Shiyao heard this, he stood up and said.

"Return to the master, General Fukang'an should be almost at the outskirts of Beijing now."

Yong Lin was obviously relieved when he heard this, and then continued to give instructions.

"When General Fukang'an returns to Beijing, summon him to see me immediately!"

Li Shiyao cupped his fists and chirped.

Yonglin turned to Qinggui again and said.

"Qinggui, you will be responsible for the relocation of the Jingshan Artillery Factory."

"We must ensure that all craftsmen move with the army. All equipment in the Jingshan Artillery Factory must be taken away if it can be taken away, and all equipment that cannot be taken away must be destroyed. There must be no mistake."

Jingshan Artillery Factory is now the largest arsenal of the Qing army, no one.

Almost half of the guns, artillery and ammunition used by the Qing army today were produced by the Jingshan Artillery Factory.

Because of this, even if Yonglin wanted to withdraw from the capital, he had no intention of giving up the Jingshan Artillery Factory.

He wants to move with the Jingshan Artillery Factory!

Wait until Shanxi and then rebuild the arsenal in Shanxi.

As for the things that he couldn't take away, he would rather destroy them than leave them to Yongyan and Yongrong, the two rebellious officials and traitors.

When Qinggui heard this, he immediately clasped his fists in response.

……

As time passed, the situation of civil strife in the Qing court continued to change.

After Yonglin announced the edict of sin and abdicated and led his troops to leave the capital, the tacit understanding between Yongrong and Yongyan was also broken.

They suddenly realized that after Yonglin abdicated, they lost their common goal, and their biggest enemies became each other.

The war between the two sides is about to break out!

Yong Rong and Yong Yan both led people to attack the capital, preparing to seize control of the capital and become legitimate emperors.

Since Yong Rong's side had the advantage of cavalry and superior mobility, he led his troops to attack thousands of miles and successfully seized control of the capital before Yong Yan's troops arrived in the capital.

When Yong Yan led his troops to the outskirts of the capital, the flag belonging to Yong Rong's troops was already flying over the capital.

Boom!dong dong!

Accompanied by bursts of shelling, several shells were fired from the capital city, tearing through the thick smoke and drawing a beautiful arc in mid-air.

Then, he fell in front of Yong Yan's military formation.

When Yong Yan saw this, his face twitched, and his eyes flashed with unwillingness to become someone else's wedding dress.

However, soon, another wave of shouting came from the walls of the capital.

"The Emperor has an edict. The capital has been restored and the throne has been decided. Prince Li should lead his troops back to the fiefdom as soon as possible. Otherwise, don't say that he was unforeseen!"

Yongyan's title was Prince Li, which was the royal title given to Yongyan by Qianlong when he left the capital.

Regarding this point, let alone Yong Rong, even Yong Lin actually admitted it.

When Yongyan heard the shouts from the top of the city, he became more and more angry, and his face became gloomy and scary.

Unwilling to retreat, Yong Yan immediately ordered his troops to attack the capital.

The fierce battle lasted for several days, but Yongyan's troops were unable to make any achievements. Dozens of successive attacks were blocked by Yongrong's troops with the help of the capital's tall city walls and complete city defense facilities.

Just when Yongyan's troops were exhausted from the long battle, Yongrong sent out his own cavalry and quickly attacked the flanks of Yongyan's troops.

The rumble of horse hooves sounded like a death knell for Yong Yan's troops.

After a fierce raid, Yongyan's troops suffered heavy losses and had to retreat back to Shaanxi via Henan.

Before leaving, Yongyan turned back and took a deep look at the tall city walls of the capital, and he secretly swore in his heart.

One day, I must take back everything that belongs to me!

At this point, the first civil strife in the Qing court came to an end for the time being, and the Qing court's five-point situation has become a reality.

After Yong Rong defeated Yong Lin and Yong Yan and captured the capital, he temporarily secured his throne.

However, even so, there are still huge hidden dangers within the Qing court.

Although Yong Rong secured the throne, it was only temporary.

Yongyan, Yonglin, and Yongxuan still hold heavy troops. It is impossible for them to really say that they have completely given up on fighting for the throne.

Once an opportunity is found, Yongyan, Yonglin, Yongxuan and even Yongxuan in the southwest may join forces to overthrow Yongrong.

If before this, Yonglin was the target of public criticism.

After that, Yong Rong took Yong Lin's position and became the real target of public criticism.

……

While the civil strife in the Qing court was in full swing, the Ming Dynasty did not rest.

When the Qing court's civil war in Zhili was in full swing, the Ming army launched the Northern Expedition from Fengyang, Huai'an. With the cooperation of the large gentry in Shandong, the Ming army marched armed all the way to the old route of the Yellow River and recovered most of Shandong. There was almost no resistance at all!

A large number of green battalion soldiers of the Qing army, as well as regiment training armed forces, all surrendered in anticipation of the wind.

And the local state government sent the table reduction early!

Focus on one thing!

While the Ming army mobilized troops to regain Shandong, the situation in North Korea also quietly changed.

In Incheon City, in the lobby of the North Korean envoy's office, Huang Changjun and Wang Minhao were meeting with representatives of various clans in North Korea.

Seeing that everyone was here, Huang Changjun clapped his hands, attracted everyone's attention, and then spoke.

"The situation in North Korea is critical. Today, the Japanese general summoned all the wise men in North Korea to discuss anti-Qing matters."

"I am very pleased that all the wise men and women can actively participate!"

Seeing this, everyone quickly expressed their disbelief.

Jin Haoyuan, the representative of the Andong Jin Sect, saw this and said.

"The barbarians were so arrogant that they sacked North Korea, burned, killed, looted, and raped countless women. The decline of North Korea's power would lead to the destruction of the country."

"Fortunately, His Majesty has a broad heart and took the initiative to send troops to help us, North Korea, escape from the clutches of the barbarians. How can we, the North Koreans, just sit idly by and ignore it?"

“You should actively participate!”

Zhao Quansheng, the representative of the Fengyang Zhao family, heard this and also spoke.

"That's right, that's right!"

"What Brother Jin said makes sense. Since the superior country has shown great kindness to help us in North Korea to quell the chaos, we, the North Koreans, will naturally have the money and strength to contribute!"

Seeing this, a representative from a well-known family in the world spoke in agreement.

Since they are here today, it means that they have already made a decision to stand on Ming's side.

If this is the case, they will definitely not offend Huang Changjun, the general of the country, by speaking rudely.

If because of their neglect, this person becomes displeased with them and makes a small report to the superiors so that the superiors can take away the position of chieftain they are about to get, then it will be more of a loss than a gain.

Seeing this, Huang Changjun nodded with satisfaction.

"Today Japan will summon everyone to Incheon to discuss with you how we can raise troops together and jointly recover Seoul."

"Everyone must have heard about what happened in the Qing court. The Tartar chief Qianlong died, and then civil strife broke out among several princes within the Qing court."

"Now, no one in the Qing court can care about North Korea!"

"Now is a great opportunity for us to join hands to regain Seoul and reverse the situation in North Korea."

"Everyone, this opportunity must not be missed and it will never come again. Now is the time for us to make contributions!"

When everyone heard this, their faces turned red with excitement.

Obviously, they all realize that now is indeed a great opportunity.

Wang Minhao on the side also spoke.

"Now there are only 10,000 Qing troops in Seoul and 30,000 North Korean puppet troops. It can be said that the troops are empty. As long as we can work together, we will be able to regain Seoul and reverse the situation in North Korea."

"I wonder if you have any confidence?"

Everyone heard the words and responded in unison.

"Who else but me can drive away the Tartars?"

"Who else but me can drive away the Tartars?"

"..."

Seeing that everyone's atmosphere was so high, Huang Changjun stopped talking nonsense and began to arrange military affairs.

"Next, the Ming Dynasty King's Division will march eastward from Inchon along the Han River to threaten Seoul and contain the Qing army."

"And the chieftains of each department must seize this reality, complete the gathering of troops as soon as possible, and then encircle Seoul..."

……

Nanjing, the emperor is here, in the imperial study!

Zhu Jianzhuo sat in the top position and glanced around the room with piercing eyes. When he saw that everyone including his son was here, he spoke.

"The latest news from the north is that the civil strife in the Qing court has come to an end for the time being."

"While the puppet emperor Daoguang led his troops from outside the pass to the inside of the pass, the puppet prince Li marched from the direction of Zhangde Prefecture in Henan to Guangping Prefecture in the north of Zhili."

"Under a pincer attack from the east and west, the false emperor Jiaqing declared his guilt and ordered him to retreat, and led his troops to retreat to Shanxi in order to protect themselves."

"But the false emperor Daoguang and the false prince Li were at odds. A fierce battle broke out on the outskirts of the capital. Prince false Prince Li's troops were defeated and retreated. The false emperor Daoguang successfully took over the capital and firmly established himself as the Tatar chieftain."

"This is the current civil war process within the Manchu Qing Dynasty."

"Everyone, let's talk about it. What should I do next?"

"In other words, how should the Ming Dynasty take advantage of the current civil strife in the Qing Dynasty to unify the world faster?"

After hearing this, everyone lowered their heads and fell into deep thought.

While thinking deeply, many people also looked at Zhu Jing'an, looking forward to Zhu Jing'an's answer.

However, Zhu Jing'an was not in a hurry to speak. He just touched his chin and thought about countermeasures.

After a while, Zhu Jing'an finally spoke.

"I am reporting to my father that I, the Ming Dynasty, can continue to instigate civil strife in the Qing Dynasty."

"Since Yonglin, who occupied the capital before, was the target of public criticism, wouldn't Yongrong, who occupies the capital now, be the target of public criticism?"

"When the civil war breaks out again in the Qing Dynasty, we, the Ming Dynasty, can take advantage of this great opportunity to regain the capital and even the northern provinces in one fell swoop."

Hearing this, Zhu Jianzhuo lowered his head and began to think deeply.

After thinking for a while, he asked.

"How am I going to fight this battle? Are we going north along the canal to the capital?"

Zhu Jianzhuo felt that if the Ming army marched northward along the canal, it would be a big move.

That movement must be impossible to cover up!

Once the Qing court discovered that the Ming army had a tendency to send troops to the north, would they continue the civil strife?

When the Ming army attacked Shandong, the Qing court could still pretend that nothing had happened and continue the civil strife.

But if the Ming army attacks Beizhili, no matter how stupid the Qing court is, they will not be able to continue the civil strife under the current situation of the enemy, right?

If the Qing court no longer continues the civil strife and the Ming Dynasty wants to capture Zhili, the difficulty will inevitably increase.

The reason why the Ming army's battle to regain Shandong went so smoothly this year was not only because Ming Dynasty was what people wanted.

It also has a certain relationship with the civil strife in the Qing court!

If civil strife had not broken out within the Qing court itself, Ming Dynasty would have had to fight with the Qing court if it wanted to regain Shandong.

In this case, although the Ming army can still win with a high probability, casualties will be inevitable.

When Zhu Jing'an heard this, he was not anxious at all.

He just smiled and said.

"Instead of going along the canal, I think our army can march towards the capital by sea."

"Surprise Tianjin directly, then march westward from Tianjin along the Tonghui River to capture the capital!"

It has been five or six years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. For such a long time, not only the strength of the Ming Army has been continuously expanding.

The Navy's strength is also constantly expanding.

A large number of ships, sailors, and sailors are constantly being organized, new warships, and new weapons are constantly being put into use. The combat effectiveness of the Ming Navy is constantly rising.

The current Ming Navy fleet is capable of launching a large-scale cross-sea battle. (End of chapter)
