Chapter 84: Poison Ploy (Ask for Collection)

This guy ran to Xuzhou and was intercepted by Jiang Yingjie, and said that he was ordered by the Jinling Military Department to move to Chuzhou.

Feng Yuan thought about it for a while, in the original timeline, after Emperor Hongguang of the Southern Ming Dynasty ascended the throne, Shi Kefa came up with a strategy for the defense of Jiangbei and divided Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zeqing, Huang Degong, and Gao Jie into Jiangbei. Become the four towns of Jiangbei.

And now that he occupies Huai'an Mansion, he sees that Yangzhou Mansion is also in his pocket.

In order to be precautionary, it is normal for Jinling to mobilize several troops and horses and station them near Huaiyang to check and balance.

Liu Zeqing said that he was ordered to go to Chuzhou by the Ministry of War, and he may not be lying.

It's just that when Liu Zeqing went south, he would inevitably pass by Xuzhou and Huai'an Mansion.

The tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command were not disciplined, and they slaughtered villages and looted the people at every turn. Once he is allowed to enter Huai'an Mansion, he really doesn't know what will happen.

His subordinates also found out that when Liu Zeqing was in Shandong, he met a few scholars with a Jiangnan accent, and he didn't know what to say, and not long after, he led his soldiers and horses south...... Miss Jiao asked the disciples of the Golden Dragon Gang to investigate, and found that these scholars had dealings with Hou Fangyu in Jinling!"

After Feng Yuan read the military report, Zhao Heng stepped forward and whispered another piece of information.

"Shizi with a Jiangnan accent, Hou Fangyu...... Hey, I see!"

Feng Yuan's heart flashed with electric thoughts, first suddenly, and then a cold light appeared in his eyes.

"It turned out to be the idea of attacking me with a false way! These wastes know that they don't have troops in their hands, so they can't help me, so they want to lure Liu Zeqing's soldiers and horses to kill me!"

Feng Yuan thought of what had happened in the original timeline.

At that time, Duoduo led the Manchu army to attack the Southern Ming Dynasty, and as a result, the small court of Jinling was still fighting for power.

King Lu, who was supported by the Donglin Party, did not become the emperor, and let Ma Shiying and Ruan Dayue, who usually disagree with political opinions, become important ministers of the imperial court.

even colluded with Zuo Liangyu, who was stationed in Huguang, and asked Zuo Liangyu to raise troops on the side of Qingjun. is ready to rely on force to oust Ruan Dayue, Ma Shiying and others.

As a result, Zuo Liangyu died of illness on the way to the Qing monarch's side, and hundreds of thousands of troops collapsed in one fell swoop, and all of them surrendered to the Qing Dynasty.

Duoduo didn't have many soldiers and horses at that time, and he was still afraid of Zuo Liangyu's army, presumably even Duoduo himself didn't expect that before an arrow was fired, hundreds of thousands of troops in the Southern Ming Dynasty would defect and surrender.

After collecting these soldiers and horses, Duoduo soldiers were strong and strong, and immediately crossed the river to capture Jinling.

Those Donglin scholars who did not forget the party struggle when the country was ruined and the family was ruined, I don't know if they had any regrets in their hearts when they had to shave their hair and change clothes.

Since those people dared to let Zuo Liangyu raise troops on the side of the Qing monarch when the Manchu army was pressing. They dared to collude with Liu Zeqing, and when he went south, they took advantage of the defenselessness of Huai'an Mansion to suddenly deal with Feng Yuan.

Thinking of the plan of these people, Feng Yuan felt a surge of killing intent in his heart.

After he came back from the capital, he needed to sit in Fucheng and temporarily ignored the Donglin scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, but he didn't expect these people to intensify their efforts and keep calculating.

At the beginning, he said that when he returned from the capital, he must make these people pay. Now, it's time to clean up the bunch.

"Liu Zeqing is here to deal with His Highness?"

Zhao Heng on the side couldn't help but be stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then his cheeks suddenly turned red with anger, he really didn't expect that these self-proclaimed gentlemen would have such vicious thoughts.

"Your Highness, leave this matter to your subordinates. The subordinates have killed all these thieves in Jiangnan! Let them know the fate of provoking the prince!"

Zhao Heng gritted his teeth and said, his eyes were full of murderous aura.

He has mastered the embroidered guards, and these days he is constantly recruiting good hands in the rivers and lakes, constantly enriching his subordinates, and now there are many good hands in the rivers and lakes among the embroidered guards.

These people are good at flying cornices and walls, taking people's heads at night, and are best suited to act as assassins.

"Don't worry! You first send someone to contact the Golden Dragon Gang and find out the detailed information of those Donglin scholars who secretly attacked, how much family wealth, how much land, how many shops, and what evil things they have done!"

Feng Yuan's voice was cold.

For example, these Donglin scholars who annexed land and wealth are not very clean, no matter which family they are, there are examples of oppressing the people and persecuting people.

Ordinary people are nothing more than mud legs in their eyes, no different from ants.

He wants to find out all the foundations of these people, and then clean them up. Let many people know the true face of the moral gentleman in their eyes.

If it is simply to send people to assassinate, these people will have a good reputation even if they die, and they will even arouse the sympathy of the people of the world and become hostile to Feng Yuan.

To kill someone, you must first punish your heart!

These gentry have no benevolence, righteousness and morality as archways, and when the people spurn them, they will kill them again, but they can get the support of the people at the bottom.

The high ground of public opinion, if you don't occupy it, others will occupy it.

Feng Yuan must be the first to stand on the moral high ground. First use public opinion to break the reputation of the other party, and then make a legitimate move, this is the best way to deal with those gentry.

"As for Liu Zeqing, his ability is not very good, but his courage is not small, since he wants to attack me, then I will strike first!"

Feng Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said hesitantly.

Liu Zeqing still has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the combat effectiveness of these soldiers is not very good, but there are a lot of them, and Jiang Yingjie still has no strength to absorb them.

Only if he personally intervenes can this trouble be solved.

After Feng Yuan made a decision, Zhao Heng immediately took the order. According to the instructions, he led people to Jinling to meet Jiao Gongli of the Golden Dragon Gang, and used the disciples of the Golden Dragon Gang to find out the news.

Feng Yuan, on the other hand, took Gu Rujin and dozens of elite players to quietly go out of the city, took a ferry to Xuzhou to meet Jiang Yingjie, and then abandoned the boat and horse, and arrived in Pei County in a short time.

At this time, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of Liu Zeqing were stationed in Pei County. The neighing of war horses and the clamor of soldiers converged and soared into the sky.

These voices were also mixed with the weepings of the people in the city.

Liu Zeqing did not get enough grain and grass, so he asked the soldiers to take it from the surrounding villages, and as for how many people were killed or injured, it was not within his scope of consideration.

"He is worthy of being a long-distance running general, and he is so loose in governing the army, he is not as good as Jin Shengheng at the beginning!"

Feng Yuan took people and entered the city in batches, and when he saw the soldiers on the street with wine jugs on his shoulders, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

At night, there is a curfew in other places.

Only the place of a large family is brightly lit, and this is where Liu Zeqing temporarily stayed. Outside the courtyard, there are 300 personal soldiers guarding it.

And in the courtyard, there were bursts of light singing and dancing and the noisy sound of fists and wine.
