In June, the weather in the south of the Yangtze River is hot and rainy, the light rain keeps falling, the gray sky reveals a bit of oppressive taste, and a thunderstorm looks like it will come at any time.

Ning Yu was wearing a raincoat, surrounded by a group of people, hurriedly passing through the Dasheng Pass, his black leather boots made red footprints on the ground, and the sewage mixed with blood flowed wantonly.

"Order Qian Ying, speed up the pace, take Hushu, and be careful to guard against the Qing army in Zhenjiang to come to help!"

Ning Yu gave orders as he walked, his horsewhip swaying up and down in his hand, but he looked a little absent-minded. Dong Ce wrote down the order on the side, and then several people rode away on fast horses, and the horse's hooves trampled on the muddy ground, causing blood to splash and sprinkle on the Qing prisoners on the side.

Several soldiers of the Fu Han Army were holding scissors, cutting the braids of the Qing prisoners, and the black braids were piled up in front of everyone. The faces of the captives were filled with the joy of surviving, so no one had any resistance, after all, in front of the bayonet, no one dared to be a so-called warrior, and if someone really picked a shot, it would be a death in vain.

Dong Ce pointed to the long line of prisoners in front of him, and said softly: "This group of people is really a little nesty, I heard that they have run out from top to bottom, and the chief soldier Gao Hei who guarded the Dasheng Pass was still on the city tower before the cannon was fired, and then disappeared...... The result was very simple, except for one general who was still resisting, no one else wanted to fight. ”

Ning Yu sneered, he naturally understood the reason for this, the Fu Han Army almost effortlessly won the victory pass known as the Jiangning Barrier, the so-called 20,000 green battalion soldiers, in fact, there were only more than 10,000 old, weak, sick and disabled, naturally unable to resist the advance of the first division of the Fu Han Army.

In this battle, the Fu Han army suffered no more than a few dozen casualties, while the Qing army killed and wounded more than 1,000 people, and thousands of people fled to Jiangning from the rear after the first cannon of the Fu Han army.

Of course, there are many more people who have already fallen on the ground and pretended to be dead in the first wave of the attack of the Fu Han army. Later, the Fu Han army checked and found that the Qing army alone had captured more than 8,000 people and more than 500 people...... This is also the sequelae of the Qing army in the previous war, a large number of elite veterans either died or surrendered, and almost all the remaining ones were already unbearable.

Everyone gathered around Ning Yu and walked towards several houses in Dasheng Pass, which had been opened up to become the residence of the Governor's Mansion of the Fu Han Army, and a big blood-red flag fluttered on the mansion, with a big "Ning" written on it.

Ning Yu walked absentmindedly, and when he turned a corner, he saw dozens of Qing army generals tied up in a row and kneeling on the ground, and dozens of soldiers of the Fu Han Army stood behind him, each holding a big knife in his hand, and with a flash of knife light, dozens of heads had fallen to the ground, staining the ground with blood.

This scene was extremely terrifying for others, but for Ning Yu, it was just an ordinary scene, he had seen countless times bloodier scenes, so he just frowned and threw down a sentence lightly.

"Kill people far away..... Deal with it cleanly! ”

Dong Ce's face was also a little ugly, he hurriedly walked over, waved his hand, "Hurry up and drag it away, don't let it be bad here......" After speaking, he hurriedly followed the footsteps of the team.

After entering the temporary governor's mansion, Ning Yu wiped his face with a hot towel, but let out a long sigh.

Dong Ce thought that Ning Yu was a little unhappy about what happened just now, so he explained aloud: "These people are some Qing army generals who are more heinous crimes, and they were executed after the military justice department verified the charges, but at the moment, they are in a hurry, and the people below are a little sloppy in doing things......

"These people are killed, and I am not because of this...... Look at this, Yongzheng is really more difficult to deal with than Kangxi! Ning Yu threw out a plain letter from his arms, without any words on it.

Dong Ce took the letter and opened it to read it, but the more he looked at it, the more frightened he felt.

"Yongzheng's household department has been effective...... It is expected that nearly 10 million taels of silver will be recovered within half a year, and now it is plotting to organize and train the Eight Banners New Army, with the Manchu, Han and Mongolian ethnic groups compiling at the same time, and the initial number of people in training is as high as 100,000......" The handwriting on it is very beautiful, but the content written is enough to make people sweat coldly.

Ning Yu smiled bitterly: "Yongzheng is really amazing, he first recovered the arrears through the household department, and then backhanded in Jiangnan to train the regiment, it can be seen that his intentions are far-reaching, and what he thinks about is nothing more than to delay the time with my Han army, and drag it until his new army is successfully trained, and then he can fight with me to the Han army again." ”

Li Fu, who had been silent beside him, nodded lightly at this time, and said solemnly: "In this way, Yongzheng is a person who is light on fame and vain, but it is more difficult to deal with than Kangxi, but the old man is a little strange in his heart, this person is acting so radically, and civil strife must have been born, but why hasn't it broken out yet?" ”

It is not only Li Fu who has this question, but also Ning Yu himself, he knows that in the real history, Yongzheng's process of seizing power was not smooth, and there was a lot of chaos in the middle, and Yongzheng acted more smoothly at that time, how could he be so eager to leave no room now?

Of course, this is also a good thing for Ning Yu, because this kind of superficial calm does not explain anything, it is very likely that the internal reactionary forces are accumulating strength, so they did not break out at the first time, but once it breaks out, I am afraid it will be a bloody chaos.

"This rain..... I'm afraid it's going to be a long time coming...."

Ning Yu sighed leisurely after all, Yongzheng refused to die obediently, which really made him feel very embarrassed.

Jiangnan and the capital seem to have become one at this time, and they are both experiencing the last tranquility before this storm. At this time, on Qinghai-Tibet, there was a large army marching forward, they were wearing the clothes of the Qing army, but they looked relatively strong, and at first glance they were border veterans who had fought in battle.

At the end of the crowd is the vast Hengduan Mountain, from south to north like a giant axe, splitting the heaven and earth in half, in this place where the sky and the earth are connected, a pool of green water dots the earth, and the nearby grass is growing wantonly, like an idyll. It's just that today's world is crowded with Qing troops who came from an expedition.

The new Fuyuan general Nian Qianyao rode on a horse, looking at the green scenery in the distance, but his mood was quite good, he pointed to the eagle flying in the sky, and said with a smile: "Luo Buzang Danjin may think that he is the eagle in the sky, no one can tame him, and he is showing off his military exploits with a face." ”

Yue Zhongqi on the side glanced at the eagle in the sky and nodded slightly, "Luo Buzang Danjin instigated more than 200,000 lamas and people near and far, plundered cattle and horses, burned grass and valleys, resisted officers and soldiers, and committed Xining. ”

The corners of Nian Qianyao's mouth were outlined with a sneer, he stretched out his hand, and a guard next to him hurriedly handed over the bow and arrow, only to see Nian Qianyao, who was in his early forties, holding a bow in one hand and pinching an arrow in the other, and pulled the bowstring directly into a full moon, only to see the long arrow cross the sky like a meteor, but it shot the eagle down.

"The general's magic arrow is invincible! The general's magic arrow is invincible! ”

Seeing that Nian Qianyao really shot down the eagle, this made the surrounding guards extremely awe-inspiring, and they dismounted and knelt on the ground and chanted loudly. Together with Yue Zhongqi, when he saw this scene, he felt a little incredible, this was really comparable to Li Guang's shooting tiger.

Seeing Yue Zhongqi's admiring side, Nian Qianyao was also a little proud, and after he returned the bow and arrow to the guards, he said with a meaningful face: "Luo Buzang Tenzin is this eagle, no matter how high he flies, no matter how long he flies, he will die under the general's arrow." ”

Yue Zhongqi said softly: "Luo Buzang Danjin is brave on the outside and cowardly on the inside, and he acts without form, as long as the arrow in the general's hand is fast and accurate enough, then this eagle will be shot down sooner or later."

The two talked to each other for a while, but suddenly they were silent, they all seemed to remember when they fought against the Fu Han army, how could they have been so sure, but now they are different enemies, and they feel that everything is different.

Nian Qianyao quietly looked into the distance and said, "I have fought with the Fu Han army, but I have not fought with Ning Yu, but from the previous battle report, I can feel that oppressive force." ”

"The battle of that day is still vivid in my mind, the Han army is not simple, and Ningyu is not simple." Yue Zhongqi sighed, in fact, when it came to fighting Ning Yu head-on, he didn't, but during the time when Anqing held on, he completely understood the gap between the Qing army and the Fu Han army.

"The strength of the Fu Han army is not only due to their firearms, but more importantly, their people dare to use their lives, they understand that they have no way out, but our people do not have such courage, let alone such determination."

Yue Zhongqi recalled the days in Anqing, where fighting and survival became the eternal theme, but the Qing army in the city could not hold on, but the Fu Han army outside the city could keep it until Ningyu completely defeated Kangxi's 70,000 horses. 、

Young and ten-thousand, he sat down and the southeast war did not end. Who is the opponent of the heroes of the world? Cao Liu. Giving birth to a son should be like Sun Zhongmou.

He thought of a poem, which is very suitable to describe Ning Yu, but one thing is different, Ning Yu is not like Sun Zhongmou, but more like Li Shimin, almost mentioning a weak brigade, and successively defeating hundreds of thousands of troops of the Qing Dynasty, so that it is time to "sit down and break the war in the southeast" today.

Nian Qianyao's expression was a little unwilling, and he snorted coldly: "Wait for me to level Luo Buzang Danjin first, and sooner or later I will have the opportunity to fight with Chu Yi again." As soon as he spoke, he pointed to the rushing Batang River in front of him.

"Come here, collect all the Tibetans here, make cattle and sheepskin bags for our army, and build a bridge to cross the river!"

The army marched slowly, the banner swept the land and passed through here, and everyone set off all the way to Tibet with the intention of making meritorious contributions, and the momentum was very magnificent.

However, at this time, whether it is Nian Qianyao or Yue Zhongqi, the mood is not as relaxed as before, they all know very well that no matter how hateful Luo Buzang Danjin is, he is not the opponent that the emperor wants to eradicate the most, and the real enemy of the emperor is not even the Fu Han army, but the Yun Yu of Prince Lian in the capital, and Yun Yu who is trapped in Jingshan.

Today's emperor has just ascended the throne, and he is vigorously investigating the rule of officials, and the trouble that can't be stopped later, if he can win a big victory in the northwest at this time, then for the emperor, he can better gather people's hearts and have more strength to carry out the next things. Of course, if it is frustrated again, then whether it is Nian Qianyao or Yue Zhongqi, there will never be another chance.

Especially Yue Zhongqi, he was originally a guilty person, and the transaction with the Fu Han Army in Anqing gave him a lot of credit over the years, and now he has no other way to retreat.

Thinking of this, Yue Zhongqi didn't want to wait any longer, he was like a broken sword, now that it had been reforged, he began to rush to find someone to test the sword with blood, and Luo Buzang Danjin became the best choice.

Yue Zhongqi turned over and dismounted, knelt in front of Nian Qianyao, with a somewhat serious look on his face, "General Qiqi, you need good arrows to hunt eagles, Yue is willing to be a long arrow in the general's hand, and go to conquer Luobzang Danjin!" ”

"Good! If you win, Ben will give you a feast! ”

On the second day of the seventh month, Yue Zhongqi led an army to raid Qinghai Lake, defeated the Luobzang Danjin garrison on the banks of the Hara River, and won hundreds of ranks, completely occupying Qinghai Lake and winning the first big victory.

At this time, Yongzheng, after receiving the good news of the victory, also began to suffer the backlash of the court. He looked at the thick stack of folds in front of him with a pale face, almost all of them were ministers against the New Army of the Eight Banners, and some people even took advantage of the topic to play, thinking that it was really unreliable to let Nian Qianyao and Yue Zhongqi, two Han people, lead the army, and asked the emperor to remove these two people and replace them with Manchu generals.

There are so many twists and turns like this that Yongzheng has no intention of reading them after reading a few books, he called Ma Qi, Long Keduo, Zhang Tingyu and others over, and the anger in his heart couldn't hold back anymore, he threw the folds in front of Ma Qi and others.

"Don't think I don't know what's going on in your hearts! You oppose the New Army of the Eight Banners, and you oppose the troops led by Nian Qianyao Yue Zhongqi, but what you really oppose is me, what you oppose is the settlement of household debts, and what you oppose is that I am too harsh on you officials! ”

After all, Yongzheng is a straight man, he is not as rigid and soft as Kangxi, so he naturally will not get used to a courtier like Ma Qi, but now he is using this reason to spread all the fire in his heart.

Ma Qi sighed, he knelt down and said slowly: "The slave is a capital crime, but the slave also has something to say." Your Majesty, the slave thought that things would be slow in this world, but now this move is too radical...... If this continues, the hearts of the people in the world will be scattered! The hearts of my people will also be scattered! ”

He slammed his head on the ground, only to see that blood had oozed from his forehead, which looked quite scary.

"Your Majesty, you are clear!"
