Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 140 The Tragedy of a Chicken

According to Ye Shuqing's narration, a scene of tragedy kicked off right in front of Zhang Shouren.Grain-grain-net-first-post www>

In August of the fourth year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji led the Qing army to attack the Daling River. The generals in Liaoxi were afraid to fight.

In the end, the imperial court had no choice but to send troops from other military towns to aid Dalinghe. Sun Yuanhua in Dengzhou also received an order from the Ministry of War to send elite troops to aid Dalinghe's friendly forces.

The battle of Daling River was actually a very crucial battle. After repairing the Daling River Fort, it would be able to cut off the west of Liaoning and echo each other with Jinzhou. Jinzhou would no longer be an isolated city, but a very useful strategic fortress. [

The Daling River, the Xiaoling River, and Jinzhou are connected together. If the Qing army wants to bypass the customs, it will face the danger of being harassed and chased by the Ming army. Therefore, when the Daling River was half built, Huang Taiji led a heavy attack. The Ming army surrounded them.

At this time, the Ming court panicked and wanted to send troops from western Liaoning to help, but Wu Xiang and other generals from western Liaoning refused to send troops, saying frankly that they were not opponents.It is too late to mobilize the rest of the soldiers and horses, but it can only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

At this time, it can also be seen that the Ming court did not have a clear, unchangeable, and consistent strategic concept for the Houjin Group.

In the later years of Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty, the strategy for Houjin was to mobilize the frontier troops of various towns, concentrate superior forces and fight back. Then in the battle of Shenyang, nearly 40 elite Ming troops were killed, and only the commander-in-chief was killed. Several, and then there is the so-called strategy of Liao people defending Liao soil. When Sun Chengzong supervised Liaodong, he overhauled civil engineering, built hundreds of military forts, trained [-] peasants and soldiers, and dozens of battalions of Guanning Army cavalry Battalion soldiers.

Each battalion has 88 artillery pieces, including large-caliber Hongyi cannons, more than [-] firecrackers, cavalry battalions, navy battalions, etc. When it comes to equipment, let alone other Ming army towns or empresses. Jin, even if you look at the world, I am afraid that in terms of the degree of firearms and sophisticated equipment, soldiers all over the world will have to fall behind Guan Ning's soldiers and will be willing to bow down.

But good equipment does not mean high combat effectiveness. Under this strategy, none of the 1000 Guanning soldiers may have fought a war, and there may be only one veteran in 1 who has killed someone.

They are all rookies, and they are basically useless in the battlefield. An army may bomb the camp. Such an army can only be said to be superficial and useless.

However, Sun Chengzong’s method of building fortresses has been continued. After the first battle of the Jin Dynasty, hundreds of fortresses of the Ming army were pulled up, but the Ming army continued to build forward. Anyway, the country’s financial resources were invested in western Liaoning. There is no place to use so much money, and there is no way to embezzle and embezzle it.

Many times, Zhang Shouren believed that this was the reason why Liaoxi was desperately building the fortress.

But while the fort was being built, there was no army that dared to fight Hou Jin in the field. Zhang Shouren didn't know the significance of building the fort like this?While abandoning the field thinking of the Wanli period, at the same time desperately expanding, ignoring the measures that Wang Zaijin and his gang simply retreated to Shanhaiguan and strengthened the defense of Jizhen, and desperately built fortresses in western Liaoning that no one dared to defend, wasting a lot of money. It really exhausted the financial resources of the Ming Dynasty and exhausted it to death.

In short, there is a black hole in the west of Liaoning. The supervisors have changed one after another, and the strategy is also chaotic. The Hou Jin has always refused to face the reality and regarded it as an enemy country.
