Chapter 292 Daming Dragon Vein

s (Please subscribe!)

Wan Zhengse was too lazy to pay compensation one by one according to the price, so he directly ordered the compulsory expropriation of civilian ships.

The military situation is urgent, there is no time to pay!

In his eyes, since Kangxi had already ordered to rely on the natural dangers of the Yangtze River to stop the Ming army, these ships that might help the Ming army naturally no longer existed.

Jiangning Prefecture was full of people. In 1645, the Qing army conquered Jiangning Prefecture and immediately occupied the Ming Dynasty Imperial City in the east of the city, expelled the local residents and turned it into an Eight Banner barracks.

The city of Jiangning is garrisoned with more than 5,000 soldiers and has a population of 23,000 bannermen. It is controlled by General Jiangning, who is responsible for suppressing the southeastern area.

The city wall has a circumference of 11 kilometers, accounting for about 20% of the total area of ​​Jiangning City. It was the largest area among the garrison cities in the Qing Dynasty.

Since the bannermen could not engage in business or farm, they had to either serve as soldiers or live at home and wait to die.

Therefore, even if he commandeered all these ships, the only ones who would suffer losses would be the Han people.

Although he didn't have time to lose money, he had time to get money from Jackie Chan.

As a result, the compensation for the people went into Wan Zhengse's pocket.

Zhu Kezang stood on the mountainside of Zijin Mountain and looked up into the distance. He saw a large complex of neatly arranged golden glazed tiles at the foot of Mount Everest in Dulongfu, covering an area of ​​hundreds of hectares.

The Ming Navy sailed upstream and began to blockade Yingtian Mansion.

Xiaoling Tomb is adjacent to Linggu Temple at the foot of Purple Mountain to the east and Meihua Mountain to the south. The overall layout imitates the celestial phenomenon surrounded by the Big Dipper and the Four Elephants.

But the question is, is the Yangtze River really so easy to be blocked?

But now, this dragon vein that controls the fate of the Ming Dynasty is right in front of Zhu Kezang.

Fortunately, Yingtian Mansion was already close at hand, so Zhu Kezang was not so anxious at this time.

Zhu Kezang looked up at the sky and interrupted Pan Aqiang: "What time is it? Why is there no movement at Xiaoling?"

The first thing Zhu Kezang did after landing was to join the Ming Guards.

This is where the Great Ming Dragon Vein is located!

As early as the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang said: "Zhongshan is home to dragons and cockroaches, and Stone City is full of tigers. It is truly the residence of an emperor!"

Yu Chenglong did have an order for the Yangtze River Navy to stop the Ming army, but the two sides were not at the same level at all. How to stop them?

The plan to seal the river has failed. Is it really just a matter of suicide boats?

Shi Lang's Fujian Navy thought the same way at the beginning, and even the Satsuma Navy of the Japanese Kingdom still thought the same.

The area where Wan Zhengse chose to sink the ship is at the Yangtze River Navy garrison, which is the Yangzhong waters not far from the lower reaches of Zhenjiang.

"It's time to return to the emperor."

Therefore, if the new Ming Dynasty could completely recover Xiaoling, it would be of great significance to the people of the world.

The water surface in this section of the Yangtze River is only about one kilometer wide, making it one of the rare narrow sections in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Wrecking ships in this section of the river seems to be the best option.

"The battle at Xiaoling is about to begin." Zhu Kezang looked at the foot of the Purple Mountain and signaled to Pan Aqiang, "First take back the dragon veins of my Ming Dynasty, and then Yingtian City!

"It's just that under the sword, I'm afraid it will inevitably damage the furnishings in the mausoleum..."

Under the shining blade, no one dared to stop it. The common people could only look at the robbed ship and weep and curse.

The Qing army loaded all the civilian ships with stones, connected them head to tail with hemp ropes, and began to build the ships to seal the river.

The mountain is winding but stands proudly, like a giant dragon lying beside Yingtian City.

This Zhongshan Mountain is the Purple Mountain, which shows the prosperity of Feng Shui here.

Soon, as soon as the forced conquest order was issued, countless Qing soldiers began to take action. They rushed to the dock with swords and weapons, and drove away regardless of whose ship it was.

Short and heavy artillery are least afraid of these suicide ships that can only attack at close range!

As a result, the Yangtze Navy of the Qing Army was unwilling to risk their lives and chose to flee collectively. The Minhai Fleet did not pursue immediately but stopped.

A scorching sun reflects on the lush Purple Mountain.

Zhu Kezang frowned and was about to send someone to check the situation when he saw Qin Zhiguo from the third town leading several officers and a group of soldiers up the mountain quickly. He looked happy and saluted: "Your Majesty, Xiaoling Mausoleum has been

Take control for Ming Dynasty!"

The location of the Xiaoling Mausoleum is also very particular. Purple Mountain in the northeast is the dragon's head, Taiping Gate is the dragon's neck, Fugui Mountain runs west along the Nanjing City Wall to Jiuhua Mountain, Jiming Temple, and then to Fuhou Gang, Drum Tower, and Wutai Mountain to form the dragon.

The body, Yeshan Taoist Temple is the dragon's tail.

It was one and a half hours later than the scheduled time to capture Xiaoling.

This is the Xiaoling Mausoleum, the tomb of Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of Hongwu, and his first wife, Queen Ma.

After the Ming Dynasty navy carefully crossed this almost blocked waterway, the rest was smooth.

As a descendant who has studied natural science knowledge since childhood, Zhu Kezang has due respect for "Feng Shui Dragon Vein", but he is not superstitious about it.

Although the Qing army's operation to seal the river was unsuccessful, it still caused trouble for the Ming Navy.

Seven buildings including Xiamafang, Golden Gate, Wangzhu, Lingxing Gate, Wulong Bridge, Xiangdian, and Baocheng are arranged from the head to the handle of the Big Dipper. And Dulongfu, Qinglong Mountain, Dalian Mountain, Mufu Mountain, Lion

Mountains, Qingliang Mountain, Niushou Mountain, Mount Everest, and Meihua Mountain form the four sacred images of the Black Dragon, Tiger and Bird.

Looking at the Ming warships that suddenly appeared on the river, the Qing Yangtze Navy did not even resist, and directly chose to escape.

But when the Qing army began to sink ships, problems arose.

Under such circumstances, the ships previously prepared were obviously not enough, so Wan Zhengse quickly ordered another collection, but at this time, the Ming Dynasty's Minhai Fleet had already appeared in the shipwreck waters.

However, due to the different sinking speeds of each ship, coupled with the narrow river channel and fast current in this area, during the sinking process of the ship, either the hemp rope broke, or the bow and stern of the ship were directly pulled apart by the huge force.

But he knew very well that the word "dragon vein" had irreplaceable meaning for the people of the Ming Dynasty!

I don’t know how many people in the world have lost their will to resist because the Ming Dynasty Dragon Vein was taken away by the Tatars.

The sinking ship was also washed to pieces by the rapid river water.

But isn’t their final result still a collective filling of the fish’s belly?

Since part of the sunken ship was submerged underwater, the Ming Navy still had to clear the channel before it could continue to sail towards Yingtianfu.

Before attacking Yingtianfu City, Xiaoling outside the city was first surrounded by the Guards.

"So fast?!" Zhu Kezang was a little surprised.

Because the Xiaoling Mausoleum is of great significance, General Wattai of Jiangning has been stationing nearly a thousand people here. The scouts of the Guards reported a few days ago that the Tatars with yellow flags in Manchuria dug trenches outside the mausoleum and installed guns and cannons inside.

.

There was a city wall built around Xiaoling Mausoleum, and it was only about seven miles away from the east of Nanjing. The Qing army rushed out of the city and could arrive here for reinforcements in a short time.

Therefore, Wang Xianwu's second town, Chen Bing, made careful preparations on the east side of Yingtian City, and then began to capture Xiaoling.

Unexpectedly, before the expected fierce battle started, Xiaoling was already in the Ming Dynasty's possession!
