Chapter 2834: Panic
Objectively speaking, the Manchu and Qing dynasties did something. Regarding the management of the canal, in order to change the disrepair of the canal and the obstruction of water transportation at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty upgraded the management of the Grand Canal to a strategic level from the year it entered the customs, almost every year. A large number of civilians were recruited to build dams and dredge the river.
However, suffering from wars is still frequent, and the effect is not obvious. It took 30 years to completely change the obstruction of water transportation and make the Grand Canal once again "merchants and boats". Since then, Yongzheng and Qianlong successively appointed capable ministers as the governor of water transport, and meticulously handled water services to maintain the prosperity of water transport.
There are four million stone grains entering Beijing along the canal every year. This can meet the needs of the people in the capital and the civil and military officials. It can be said that the canal has become the aorta of the Qing Dynasty and maintained the operation of this great empire.
But now that the transportation of water is cut off by Shen Long, it is like pinching the main artery of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Qianlong panicked at once. There were some grain storage in many granaries near the capital, adding up to about three to five million shi, but this would support one at most. If the water transportation cannot be resumed in a short period of time in a few years, it will be a big mess.
No, I can’t even hold on for a year. As long as the news of the truncated transportation is released, the price of food in the capital will definitely skyrocket. Those people who have no money to sell food will definitely not sit and wait for death. This will inevitably lead to chaos in the capital.
Qianlong immediately decreed that grain merchants were strictly prohibited from hoarding and opening grain stores. At the same time, they mobilized grain from the surrounding provinces and cities. However, among the northern provinces, the northeast is currently undeveloped, and Mongolia does not produce grain. Shanxi and Shaanxi have always been barren and can feed themselves. Not bad, but there is still room to deliver food to the capital?
Only Shandong, Beizhili and other places can be a little better, but because the Shandong Canal has to ensure that the canal uses water, the people on both sides of the canal have always been strictly prohibited from diverting water for irrigation, and the grain output is not high. It must be transported to the border for food by the border army. Now that the grain in these two areas can be kept, the capital may be able to keep it, but the border army will be hungry.
Even further afield, there is food in Huguang and Sichuan, but these two places are too far away from the capital, and there is no convenient water transportation. If the food is transported by land, there will be a hundred shi of grain when it leaves, and there will be ten shi left in the capital. Not bad, this loss can't stand it.
"Where is Agui now? When will Jiangning be regained?" For today's plan, only by taking down Jiangning as soon as possible and restoring the transportation can Daqing be rescued from the crisis.
"Your Majesty, Agui returned from Tianshan Mountain immediately after receiving his promotion. However, the northwest is far away from the capital. Even if he travels both day and night, it is estimated that he will be in Shaanxi at most?" Agui hasn't returned yet, Shen Long The water transport was cut off.
"Immediately send people 800 li to rush to intercept and tell Agui that they will not be used in the capital, and go directly to Jiangsu to mobilize the troops to recover Jiangning! I gave him the king's flag and the sword of Fang Fang, and the forces of the Huguang and Liangjiang generations are all under his command. , If someone dares not obey orders, they can cut first and then play!" Qianlong was really anxious, otherwise he would not delegate such a large power to Agui.
Jiangning must be regained before the capital becomes chaotic. Otherwise, the rebels don’t need to lead the army to the north, and the capital will be able to cause chaos. Qianlong can still distinguish the importance. The most important thing at the moment is to restore the transportation of water. As for the Agui power meeting It won't be too big a problem, let's talk about it later, the big deal is that he will be summoned to Beijing after the war and hang up for a precious position.
After that, a wave of horses left Beijing overnight, sending Agui the imperial decree, the king's flag, the Shangfang sword, etc., and ordered the officials of the Huguang and Liangjiang generations to prepare food, grass, soldiers and horses, and when Agui arrived, he hurried to fight. .
Huguang is better. The officials in Liangjiang burst into tears when they heard this. All the soldiers and horses in Liangjiang were buried under the city of Jiangning by Yin Jishan. There are soldiers there! The same is true for grain and grass. It has been collected before, but if it is to be collected now, the people will have to rebel.
But not listening, not to mention how harsh the tone in the imperial edict is, and even if the water transport was cut off, they can also realize the seriousness of this matter. If they fail to collect enough food, grass and soldiers, it will lead to the failure of the water transport. If you recover in time, let alone whether you can still be an official, your head will not be able to keep it.
So the officials in Liangjiang panicked and hurriedly collected grain and grass and forcibly arrested strong men to join the army. The people of Liangjiang had already suffered once before, but now they come again, and this time they not only want money, food but also people, this Isn't it just not let people live? Coupled with some caring people, troubles broke out in many places in Liangjiang soon.
The better ones killed the yakuza who had gone to the countryside to urge grain at most on the way, and if they got too hot, they would directly rebel against the flag, and the two rivers fell into chaos for a while.
After finally waiting for Agui to bring the soldiers from Huguang, he finally calmed down the turmoil. The officials in Liangjiang and Qianlong rekindled hope~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Agui deserves to be a famous general, if he leads the army. , Maybe Jiangning can settle down soon, right?
But Agui also has a headache now. He learned about the battle of the day from the defeated soldiers under Jiangning City. He hasn't thought about how to deal with this brand-new combat method! In fact, looking at the whole world now, no one knows that we should deal with this tactic. What Shen Long uses is not an ordinary square, but a Napoleon square.
And Napoleon will still have to be born ten more years, let alone the method of cracking this square; but even if you don’t think about it, you can’t tolerate Aguido’s waiting. If the water transport continues like this, in the future It was not just Liangjiang who rebelled. Maybe Zhili, Shandong, and the border generation would have trouble.
I have to fight if I don't want to fight now! So Agui could only bite the bullet and lead his soldiers and horses down the Yangtze River. Unexpectedly, before they arrived in Jiangning, he met the navy who was going upstream. Shen Long personally led the navy to transport troops to the Qing Dynasty. The food transport fleet was a violent bombing, and Agui suffered heavy losses.
You can’t win on the water, and it’s not easy on land. When A Gui’s army arrived in Ma'anshan, Shen Long took the initiative to attack and meet A Gui’s soldiers and horses.
Agui tried to use the mobility of the cavalry to defeat Shen Long, but he failed like Seng Gelinqin. The cavalry who had repeatedly made military exploits in the northwest did not play any role before the intensive guns and were defeated. Even Agui himself had miscalculated the range of Shen Long's guns, so he commanded too far forward and died under the fire.
When the news came back to the capital, Qianlong became even more panicked. Could it be that my Qing Dynasty really got a pill?
