In the warm room, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong had not yet gone to bed.
A pile of memorials were still scattered on the desk, obviously not yet fully read.
But at this moment, the expression between Emperor Kangxi's brows seemed unusually relaxed, no longer as sad as before.
In the past six months, two unprecedented defeats almost broke the backbone of the Jianzhou Eight Banners.
At that time, the situation was really like fire on all sides and the wind and rain were blowing.
Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong could not sleep well for a long time.
As soon as he closed his eyes, he seemed to see the raging fire, the gleam of sharp swords, and the capital being razed to the ground by the trampling of thousands of iron hooves.
Chang Ting has never been so weak before -
With just one round of attack from Xiangyang's plant army, all areas south of the Yellow River will fall.
It is even possible that the guerrillas of the Northern Expedition could directly march into Hebei and cooperate with Burni to attack from the north and south to directly attack the capital.
But fortunately, just when the situation seemed to be crumbling, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong suddenly had a stroke of luck, and good fortune came to them.
For some unknown reason, the King of Dian suddenly went south to attack Guangdong and Guangxi, giving the court a chance to catch its breath.
Taking this opportunity, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong quickly promoted Tu Hai, who had been defeated before, and asked him to make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence and to quell the rebellion of the Mongols.
Tu Hai lived up to everyone's expectations. He defeated Burni, who had started the rebellion, with only a group of bondservants.
Bunil's rebellious troops were defeated, and he himself was beheaded by his subordinates and presented to the Qin army.
The rear of the Qinting army was safe.
After a good start, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong received more good news.
The cute troops in the south once again demonstrated their talent in internal fighting.
Sun Yanling, Shang Zhixin, Zheng Jing...
These military leaders fought with Shu Yichao one after another.
"Alas, facing a powerful enemy, we don't know the principle of unity and solidarity."
"On the contrary, there are continuous internal orders." Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong shook their heads repeatedly.
“What a rabble.
This scene could not help but remind him of the scene when the Xuan army entered the pass -
This moment is simply a replay of Nan Meng's past!
At that time, the Eight Banners of Jianzhou under the command of Emperor Xianting had a total of only 60,000 to 70,000 soldiers and horses. Logically speaking, this amount of force was not enough to establish a rule in the Central Plains, let alone to divide the country and govern it.
But what about the results.
Nan Meng managed to do a lot of things that could cause cerebral hemorrhage.
He joined forces with the Qing court to fight Li Zicheng, engaged in factional strife and plotted against each other, and even caused Zuo Liangyu to revolt...
The army of Xuan was about to rush to his face, the King of Lu and the King of Tang were still fighting each other, the Yongli Emperor and the Shaowu Emperor were still attacking each other, and after a little improvement, the King of Qin and the King of Jin fell out again.
The infighting and disputes among these people made great contributions to the conquest of the world by the Qin Dynasty!
Therefore, Shu Yichao's actions almost made Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong repeatedly exclaim "I have seen this question before."
In any case, there is no problem in Central Plains and Jiangnan for the time being.
Good news is still coming.
When the Eight Banners retreated and dared not fight against Li Laiheng, the King of Rebellion who broke into Shaanxi and Gansu, the Green Camp in Shaanxi and Gansu stepped forward and demonstrated with practical actions who was the pillar of the country.
Zhang Yong, the general of Gansu, Zhao Liangdong, the admiral of Ningxia, Wang Jinbao, the general of Xining and others led their troops to fight against Li Laiheng.
Because Li Laiheng had few soldiers, he could only retreat to Hanzhong after relocating some of the people.
The northwest was also stabilized.
"Hahaha!
"OK!"
"That's great."
After this series of good news came, the Ministry of War and the palace were filled with jubilation.
Even Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's complexion looked much better, and the dark clouds in Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong's hearts had mostly dissipated.
Judging from the situation, Qin Ting might be able to wait until the various forces in the south are exhausted and exhausted before he starts to reap the benefits.
Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong took two sips of the bird's nest soup, but they were so excited that they couldn't eat it at all.
So Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong stood up, relaxed his arms, picked up a bowl of bird's nest soup and handed it to a guard next to him.
"Yes, this is your reward."
The guard was so frightened that he fell to his knees.
"My Lord, this is truly awful to me.
"Minion..."
"You dog slave." Guarjia Huizhu, who was sent by Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang to be by the side of Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong, frowned.
"Just accept the gift given to you by the Emperor."
"Who are you doing this for?
She said this, but her eyes were fixed on a jade pendant on Emperor Kangxi's belt.
The thing was as warm as water, delicate and crystal clear, exuding a unique texture. It was obviously not an ordinary thing, and it was not Emperor Kangxi's own thing.
Which vixen secretly created this?
Guarjia Huizhu gnashed her teeth.
Seducing the master and secretly giving him things, how can this be allowed?
"Haha, you're right." Emperor Kang Qian did not notice Guaerjia Huizhu's eyes, but smiled and said to the guard.
"This is my reward to you, just drink it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The guard drank a few sips cautiously.
"I have never tasted anything so delicious before. It is all thanks to the Emperor's grace."
"Hahaha!!!" Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong continued to laugh.
"You should thank God for that!"
"This is God's blessing on Dacheng, protecting Dacheng's kingdom!
Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong looked up at the sky as they spoke.
"Yes.
“It’s God who is helping us.”
Zhang Yong, Zhao Liangdong and others from the Northwest made this clear in their memorials.
The most crucial reason why they were able to repel Li Laiheng was the weather.
It is the middle of winter in the northwest at this moment, the weather is freezing cold, and the wind and snow are howling.
Under such terrible low temperatures, countless grassroots soldiers froze to death or became frozen stiff, and their combat effectiveness plummeted. At the same time, grain production also plummeted, decreased, and even failed.
Li Laiheng's troops, which still maintained their fighting capacity, had to retreat due to lack of food.
When he sent out his troops, he didn't even bring any logistics support. After all, who knew that the army of grass and trees would be frozen like grandsons in the winter.
"Hmph.
"It seems that the plant and tree spirits under Pseudo-Moe Shu Ni's command are not very capable."
Now, I have found another weakness.
"Order those wizards and shamans to continue perfecting the formation!"
"I-
"Let the pseudo-meng Shu Ni learn what destiny is! Destiny!"
"Report!!" At this moment, a new express message arrived from 800 miles away.
When Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong read the memorial, they were overjoyed.
"Hahaha!
"This is so comfortable, this is so comfortable..."
The young emperor laughed so hard that he was out of breath.
"They're going to attack Ganzhou again!?"
More than a year ago, Jin Shengheng rebelled in Jiangxi and raised the banner of Meng Chao again.
At that time, Jin Shengheng, who was entrenched in the Nanchang area, adopted the same strategy as Shu Yichao is now.
Jin Shengheng could have gone down the river and taken Jiangning, cutting off the grain transport of the Qin army. He could have advanced westward to Wuchang and joined forces with the Meng and Shun armies in Hunan and Hubei. He could have plundered along the way and disrupted the Qin army's rear...
Then Jin Shengheng chose the worst strategy and attacked the fortified city of Ganzhou, wasting a lot of precious time. In the end, he was wiped out by the gathered troops from all directions, and in the process, he also severely damaged the Meng army.
...
"I've lost my mind."
"It seems that the Dian rebels are doomed."
There was a gleam in Emperor Kangxi's eyes.
“It’s time—
"It's time for the bandits to take action."
"Where is my vanguard battalion!?"
early morning.
The misty fog was like rolling waves, roaring and rolling.
Amidst the noisy and chaotic sound of footsteps, the clashing of weapons, and low roars, a group of muscular men with dark blue skin were doing drills.
Most of them had their heads shaved down to a smooth rattail, with only a short stubble around their upper lips, and a hint of red in their eyes from time to time.
A savage and brutal aura immediately hit me in the face.
"Hah!" They were seen carrying heavy stone locks and throwing them up and down, as if they were fiddling with light wicks.
"Your Majesty." A group of generals quickly came to Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong and knelt down and kowtowed.
"Long live His Majesty..."
"No need to formalize." Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong looked at the ferocious Jianzhou Eight Banners in the vanguard camp with satisfaction.
"This is my great warrior."
"With this mighty army-
"Why worry about the bandits from all directions?"
The Vanguard Battalion is the most powerful unit of Dacheng at present. It is composed of the elite guards of each flag.
They are the elite among the elite, and are also the Eight Banners armed forces that Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong rely on the most.
The weapons, armor, potions they were equipped with, as well as the wizards selected for them, were all the best.
After reviewing the vanguard camp, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong were very satisfied.
But it's still not enough -
The Jianzhou Eight Banners are now too short of population!
"Looks like I need to urge General Shengjing to capture more Jianzhou barbarians in Liaodong..."
The savages mentioned by Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong were certainly not real savages.
Instead, they were the poor relatives of the Jianzhou Eight Banners who were struggling in the deep mountains.
Since the founding of the Great Jianzhou Kingdom, the Jianzhou army has been searching everywhere to capture these Jianzhou barbarians and throwing them into the most dangerous battlefields as cannon fodder and vanguards.
