I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

In Wuhan, He Tengjiao, who was attacking Wuchang, received a Jiujiang emergency report.

"General, how is the battle?"

The commander Yan Qihuan asked.

"As expected, the Qing army was defeated, and the 90,000 army was completely wiped out. In this battle, the Qing army lost nearly 120,000 people before and after.

He Tengjiao sighed.

This is a big victory for other people. It is my turn to attack a Wuhan with only 15,000 troops.

In contrast, Wu Jun's record was really brilliant, destroying the main force of 120,000 Qing troops in Nanjing and another 120,000 main force in Jiujiang.

In addition to the battles in other places, the Wu army has wiped out more than 300,000 Qing troops before and after.

This kind of record made countless Ming troops ashamed, and naturally He Tengjiao was ashamed.

He had personally fought against the army of Le Kedehun, and he knew that the Eight Banners soldiers were so powerful that he was no match at all.

However, such a formidable Eight Banners soldier is now beaten by Wu Jun and has no power to fight back. He does not know what to do if he encounters Wu Jun.

It is impossible to fight, and only those who are in the water will go to fight Wu Jun.

Zhu Yujian asked him to send troops to support Nanchang, but he did not agree, because he was worried that sending troops to Nanchang would conflict with the Wu army. After all, Wu Jun's goal is obvious, that is, to occupy Jiangxi.

Going to the tiger's mouth to grab food at such a time is not asking for a dead end.

He Tengjiao was willing to attack Wuhan and seize territory from the Qing army, rather than conflict with Wu Changqing.

As for the future, He Tengjiao still has no clue.

Today the world is in chaos, and various forces are intricate, and the situation makes him completely unable to see through.

What He Tengjiao inquired about was that Wu Changqing and King Lu did not seem to be of the same mind, and now they only obeyed on the surface. In fact, Wu Changqing did not even allow Zhu Yihai to live in Nanjing.

This kind of behavior is outrageous.

This world is in complete chaos.

He Tengjiao couldn't see where he should go in the future, so he could only take one step at a time.

In the south, Zhu Yujian has captured Nanfeng after a hard fight, and the army has reached the city of Fuzhou.

Zhu Yujian had a lot of troops, with a total of 25,000 people, while the Qing army guarding the city in Fuzhou had less than 4,000 people.

However, through the siege battle in Nanfeng, Zhu Yujian also realized the combat power of his army and knew that it was very difficult to capture Fuzhou.

At this time, the news of Wu Jun's defeat of Luck Dehun and the capture of Jiujiang reached him.

"So fast, doesn't the Qing army still have 90,000 troops, why can't they even defend the city?"

Zhu Yujian gaily said, if his words were seen by outsiders, it would definitely be inappropriate. With that regretful expression, I don't know if he thought he was with the Qing army.

"Your Majesty, today's war has changed a lot. I deduced Wu Jun's fighting style from various battle reports, and found that cold weapons have no chance of winning in front of Wu Jun's flintlock troops, and the number is meaningless.

Before the battle between the two armies, the troops facing the flintlock troops were in the process of charging, and the soldiers who rushed in the front two or three rows had almost no chance of life. This led to the fact that the army was very easy to collapse when facing the flintlock troops. "

Huang Shanling said.

"Then what should we do? If we fight with Wu Jun, Aiqing can solve it."

Zhu Yujian asked.

"This, in the plains, we have no chance of winning. We can only lead them into the mountains, use the complex mountain terrain to approach them, divide them into small pieces, and engage in melee battles."

Huang Shanling obviously knew the weakness of the flintlock troop after in-depth research.

In the mountains and forests, the power of the flintlock gun is really difficult to exert.

Hearing Huang Shanling's words, Zhu Yujian breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he was not completely invincible, it would be fine.

Mountains, there are many in his territory.

Whether it is Fujian or Jiangxi and Guangdong, there are large mountain defense lines. Not to mention Guizhou and Yunnan, which are all mountainous plateaus.

Not to mention fighting, just marching in those places is not easy.

So, if he can't beat it, he can retreat to the rear and use these terrains to defend.

However, this also has a downside.

The economy of these mountainous territories is very backward, as is agriculture. It is difficult for the local people to feed themselves, and it is even more difficult to collect taxes to feed the army.

If he does not occupy a place like Nanchang, he has no capital to rise at all.

However, if you want to occupy Nanchang, you need to fight the Wu army in the plain, and there is no chance of winning.

When Zhu Yujian thought of this, he could only sigh.

He was regretting why he didn't go north immediately when Wu Changqing had just risen. At that time, Wu Changqing had not yet developed, and he was sure that he could control Wu Changqing.

But now, Wu Changqing has grown up completely.

Before the messenger he sent to contact Wu Changqing, he had promised Wu Changqing that as long as he was loyal to him, he could make Wu Changqing a regent like Dorgon.

All major events in the country are decided by Wu Changqing.

And he only asked to be a puppet, a nominal emperor.

This concession can be said to be the limit of an emperor.

This is also due to the fact that he is much older than Wu Changqing, no

If you ask him to call Wu Changqing a father, he may agree.

Anyway, as long as the Zhu family's nominal orthodoxy can be maintained.

Zhu Yujian's thinking is also wonderful. As long as he retains the nominal orthodoxy, he can do a lot of things, and he may not be able to take back his power in the future.

Moreover, even if he can't take it back, he can hand over this task to future generations.

This orthodox name still has a very big effect. Once Wu Changqing dies, Wu Changqing's descendants are insufficient in ability or prestige, and their collective force will fall apart.

And at that time, their royal family can take action to regain power.

Zhu Yujian likened it to Goujian, the king of Yue, who was trying his hardest. Unfortunately, he thought very well, but Wu Changqing didn't pay any attention to his messenger.

His heart of rebelling and proclaiming emperor is already known to passers-by, and it is obvious.

In Zhu Yujian's eyes, Wu Changqing and the Qing army were actually no different, they were both mortal enemies.

"Who dares to go to Fuzhou City to persuade him to surrender?"

Zhu Yujian suddenly asked everyone that now the Qing army in Jiujiang has been defeated, and the Qing army left in Fuzhou and other places has the possibility of surrender.

Therefore, Zhu Yujian was also tempted to persuade him to surrender, and wanted to give it a try.

In case of success, not only can you take Fuzhou without losing troops, but you can also increase your own troops, which can be said to serve multiple purposes.

All the courtiers were silent when they heard the words, and the risk of persuading to surrender is still very high.

The atmosphere in the tent was suddenly awkward. In desperation, an old man who seemed to be in his 70s or 80s stood up and expressed his willingness to go.

Anyway, he is almost old enough to live. To be able to be loyal at the end of the day and leave a mark in the history books, it is worth dying.
