Chapter 597: Loyal Minister
Shanhaiguan City East Erli Huanxi Ridge, Weiyuan City.
Weiyuan City is an outpost city outside Shanhaiguan City, three zhang high, four corners of the platform to stampe, both can look, can also be stationed.
At this time, around Weiyuan City, there were dense Ming army camps, deep walls of moats, and red dragon flags floating on Huanxi Ridge.
On the enemy platform, a huge woven gold dragon was erected, and under the yellow umbrella, Zhu Cihong looked at the Qing army that was building fortifications in the distance.
Behind him, there stood the generals of the Ming army, Sun Yingyuan, Marquis of Jingwu, Huang Degong, Marquis of Jingnan, Cao Bianjiao, Wuxiangbo, Wan Junjie, Li Tingbiao, Zhongwubo, Zhu Youneng, Zhu Youneng, General Mao Yuanyi, General of Zhenbei, and Qiu Minyang, Governor of Liaodong......
Around the enemy platform, there are all the fierce Royal Forest Army armorers, all of whom are wearing bright helmets and bright armor, with excellent armor leaves exposed, and thick bronze glasses on the front and back chests.
The armor soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army were as tall and mighty as Wu Anbo Xu Sheng, and they stood vigilantly, carrying Heding rifles on their backs, and equipped with rotating handguns, three-edged bayonets, grenades and other killing weapons.
As soon as he arrived at the front line, Zhu Cihong couldn't wait to watch the enemy situation, and through the telescope, Zhu Cihong clearly saw that the Qing army on the opposite side was digging trenches and building earthen walls, which seemed to be defending against artillery.
The defense of the Qing army made him look solemn, but he didn't expect these Tartars to learn the tactics of the Tianwu Army, whether it was three rounds of salvo, infantry and artillery coordination, or trench defense, they all learned decently.
"Your Majesty, Hong Chengchou has surrendered to the enemy, and the arrangement of the Tartars should be from his handiwork." Mao Yuanyi handed over a letter from Hong Chengchou and said in a low voice.
Zhu Cihong nodded, it was not unexpected, heroes and traitors, just a thought, all in one heart.
Hong Chengchou is a person who, to put it bluntly, is a disloyal and unfilial person, no matter how helpless he is, if he really wants to die, he would have secretly committed suicide.
In history, Hong Laojiu once wrote a couplet on the hall in gratitude for Emperor Chongzhen's favor: Jun's grace is as deep as the sea, and the minister's festival is as heavy as a mountain.
However, after the defeat of Songjin in the war, everyone was martyred in the past, Chongzhen cried bitterly for several days, and before the memorial service was over, he threw away the heavy ministers and surrendered directly, shouting that the Qing Emperor was the true lord of the world.
After the Qing Dynasty, Hong Chengchou can be described as high-spirited, following the new master into the customs, leading the seven provinces to pass the strategy, and Wu Sangui, Shang Kexi, Geng Zhongming and other fellow Chinese people, acting as the vanguard of the Tartar thieves in the Central Plains, waving the butcher knife to his compatriots, and carrying out the traitor's great cause to the end!
It is precisely because of Hong Chengchou and other like-minded traitors, Pingxi Jingnan, and the extermination of Zhu, that 100,000 pigtailed soldiers were able to drown the Central Plains in a pool of blood, and China has since entered the era of extremely humiliating pig's tail, and the gorgeous civilization has been destroyed, leaving behind the dross of a place.
Zhu Cihong admires Hong Chengchou's talent, but hates his character.
Some people are not given a chance to be a new person, the character in his bones is there, history has proven.
Historically, in the face of the same adversity, Lu Xiangsheng survived, Huang Daozhou survived, Zuo Maodi survived, and thousands of Ming soldiers survived.
Perhaps Hong Chengchou felt that the Daming Jingshi was broken by thieves, and even half of the country was gone, and his qi was dim, and if he wanted to prosper, he would wait at least ten or twenty years.
As long as the Qing Dynasty occupies the land of Liaodong, it can enter the customs and capture the Central Plains within a few years, at least it can be ruled by dividing the river.
Moreover, who can say exactly what will happen more than ten years later, maybe he will be in the ground early, the most important thing is to live in the present, his life is gone, what will he talk about in the future......
What is ridiculous is that in history, even if Hong Chengchou helped the Manchu Qing Dynasty to stabilize the world, he was still not really accepted by his master, Huang Taiji, Dolgon, and Shunzhi, although all three of them reused him, they did not let him enter the decision-making level.
After Shunzhi hung up, the young Kangxi succeeded to the throne, and Hong Chengchou in his old age was snubbed with the empty title of university scholar, and watched Ao Bai and other four auxiliary ministers divide the auxiliary power, and he could only ask for retirement.
sacrificed his honor, helped the Manchu master work hard for 20 years, and guided the master to sit firmly in the country, but in the end he only got a small hereditary title of third-class light car captain.
The title of the lieutenant of this light car is very magical, the title of the Qing Dynasty is still divided into five levels: duke, wait, uncle, son, and male, and each title is divided into one to three classes, the first class is the highest, and the captain of the light car is below the baron of the fifth level, and Hong Chengchou is still the third class of the captain of the light car.
Later, Qianlong compiled a book, called Erchen Biography, that is, a collection of traitors, and Hong Chengchou was honorably selected as a first-class traitor.
Ironically, Shi Kefa, who died in Qianlong's fight against the Qing Dynasty, personally inscribed the words "Praise the Loyal Soul" to praise his heroic and loyal martyrs.
I have to say that Hong Laojiu's life is full of legends and eye-openings, which can be described as: knocking his head on the night of romance, turning the clouds and rain to praise the holy monarch, hanging the pearl on the top like a mouse's sleeve, and the pig's tail rolling all over the ground.
In this life, what will be the fate of Hong Laojiu? Zhu Cihong didn't look forward to it at all......
Now that he is here, he doesn't need any reason to destroy the cancer and the dregs of this world.
Zhu Cihong looked at it for a long time, and finally put down the binoculars, with a trace of contempt in his eyes, and said coldly: "I am here, they still dare to set up defenses in front of the Jiumen River, where did Taqing get the courage?" ”
Mao Yuanyi said: "Dolgon is reluctant to retreat, it seems that he wants to enter the customs with an iron heart, the minister estimates that he will be deployed in front of these rivers between Shanhaiguan and Guangning Qiantunwei, relying on the terrain to consume our army, waiting for the opportunity to attack with cavalry!" ”
Zhu Cihong nodded, agreeing with him.
From Shanhaiguan to Jinzhou, this 400-mile-long Liaoxi corridor, except for some mountains near Ningyuan City, which is more than 200 miles away, and other places are flat, and can only rely on a few rivers flowing down from Yanshan to block the advance of the army.
At this time, a horse rushed from the position of the Qing army, with a flag behind him, claiming to be the messenger of Emperor Shenxing of the Qing Dynasty.
He was escorted into Weihai City, knelt down and bowed to Zhu Cihong on the city, and shouted: "Emperor Shenxing of the Great Qing Dynasty told Emperor Wu of the Great Qing Dynasty, I have 500,000 Jingjia in the Great Qing Dynasty, and it is at the moment to break the pass and kill the emperor......
Sun Yingyuan, Marquis of Jingwu, said with a smile: "Dolgon, the rat generation, dare to send someone to persuade him to surrender?" ”
Huang Degong rushed down and said: "Let him wash his neck and die!" ”
All the generals sneered, I really didn't know what medicine Dolgon had taken wrong, and he dared to send someone to persuade him to surrender, could it be that he forgot what happened to Fan Wencheng?
Sure enough, Zhu Cihong smiled indifferently and waved his hand casually.
Xu Sheng took out his handcuff and shot it unequivocally below.
At the sound of a righteous gunshot, the messenger's chest was bloodied, his eyes widened, and he fell straight to the ground.
Zhu Youneng said seriously: "Master, the slave chief Dolgon doesn't know the power of heaven, the mayfly shakes the tree, and the slave is willing to lead the Ming Zheng Yellow Flag to play the striker and hit his department hard!" ”
Zhu Chenggong, who was on the side, saw that his name was strange, so he quietly approached Xu Sheng and asked in a low voice: "Wu Anbo, who is this short-haired general?" It's weird to look like ......"
Xu Sheng said in a low voice: "Like you, he is also a national surname, his father is a wild boar Pinurhachi, who was reformed by the Holy Lord five years ago......"
"The surname of the country...... Then why does he call himself a minion? ”
"It's just a hometown custom......
Zhu Chenggong sighed, secretly wrote down this person, and he will definitely make friends in the future, and interview him about his deeds and experiences.
Zhu Cihong highly praised the loyal Zhu Youneng and encouraged him to make persistent efforts to make greater contributions to the great cause of liberating Liaodong.
Zhu Youneng was moved to tears, kneeling down and hugging his legs and crying, and the scene was full of beautiful pictures of the king's saints and sages, and the king's singing and ministers' harmony, which made people inexplicably moved.
Zhu Cihong helped him up and said gently: "Get up and speak, in the future, don't kneel down without moving, call yourself a slave or something, I don't like this, just call yourself a minister." ”
Hearing this, Zhu Youneng was extremely moved.
Moved from that insignificant, but very meaningful moment, at this time, Zhu Youneng looked up on his knees, as if he was lonely and helpless, and met his father's kind smile.
This kind of love, he had never seen in Nurhachi's face, he was like dry soil, when he met a drop of rain and dew, that resolute heart was gradually warmed......
Zhu Youneng mustered up his courage and said with great anticipation: "If the master is willing, the slave wants to be your righteous son!" ”
“......”
There was a dead silence all around, and the generals were stunned, looking at Zhu Youneng who was half-kneeling in disbelief.
Zhu Chenggong opened his mouth even more in shock, the age of this national surname is older than his ex-father Zheng Zhilong, this operation is a bit shameless.
Zhu Cihong was about to lift his hands suddenly froze, as if there were 10,000 war horses galloping in his heart, he kicked Zhu Youneng over, waved his hand and said: "Take your Zhenghuang Banner and go to capture the Jiumen River!" ”
