Chapter 125: The Guangxi Incident
All the way to the boat, the wind and dust bumps finally arrived at the destination, did not see the son of the world to pick up, into the four seasons like spring, the blossoming Kunming did not see the son, Dai Mengmeng's heart sank to the bottom of the sea, self-grief, self-care and tears, he followed thousands of miles away, over the mountains and mountains, why is this trouble?
"Miss! King Zhou's Mansion has arrived! Dai Xin hated her little sister's lack of self-respect, if it weren't for her own insistence, she wouldn't want to go south!
"Brother Xin! Let's go back to Yuezhou! Dai Mengmeng wiped away the pear tears hanging on her face, her eyes were red and swollen, and she didn't dare to open the car curtain, and there was a voice of loneliness and loss.
Dai Xin was stunned and said, "It's absolutely impossible to go back to Yuezhou, please think twice!" ”
At this time, Chen Zhengcheng came over and asked, "Why doesn't Miss Dai get out of the car?" ”
Dai Xin didn't know how to answer, and glanced at the double-headed carriage, there was no movement inside, only the curtain moved with the breeze.
"Please Miss Dai get out of the car, the prince has already arranged a place for Miss Dai!" Chen Zhengcheng bowed his head and saluted the carriage.
"Brother Xin! We don't live in the palace! Dai Mengmeng couldn't be willful after thinking about it, but she was even more annoyed when she heard the word "Shizi".
Chen Zhengcheng was stunned and bowed again: "The palace has prepared everything for Miss Dai, and invites Miss Dai into the mansion!" ”
As long as he doesn't go back to Yuezhou, Dai Xin understands his little sister's feelings, although he respects the prince, he also feels that the prince is a little too much, and apologizes: "I won't disturb the Zhou Palace, and ask Brother Zhengcheng to thank the prince on his behalf!" With that, he shouted, "Let's go!" ”
All the way to the southeast, the reed sheng is melodious, the copper joy drum is excited, the clouds are steaming, the green forest is like the sea, the scenery is beautiful, the beauty is overwhelming, Qi Liang is pleasing to the eye, full of interest, but it is a pity that the mountain is high and the road is narrow. This time he went to Lin'an Mansion (now an old area in Yunnan), not to avoid Dai Mengmeng, but to have a coal mine in Lin'an, iron ore and copper mines, and he needed an on-site inspection to make an assessment. And going to Lin'an was not his real purpose, it was only passing by, he really wanted to go to Zhen'an Mansion in Guangxi (now the area of Jingxi in Guangxi), and there were two reasons that prompted him to go to Zhen'an in person: the generalissimo camp was impatient with the delay in the response of Guangxi Province, and ordered him to take the entire territory of Guangxi as soon as possible; The illicit salt trafficked by the Nighthawks was blocked in Guangxi. Of course, Qi Liang chose to set off when Dai Mengmeng was about to arrive in Kunming, also to show his attitude.
In addition to the Flying Leopard Group Mingwei, there were also some strange scholars from the Tianshuo Mansion Manufacturing Institute, including geologists, mining experts, and construction experts similar to modern society. After staying in Lin'an for three days, leaving those heterogeneous scholars to continue their investigation, Qi Liang passed through Kaihua Mansion (in the area of present-day Wenshan, Yunnan) and secretly went to Zhen'an, Guangxi.
The Yunnan group has 30,000 heavy troops on the border of Yunnan and Guangxi, led by Wu Shicong, to protect the security of eastern Yunnan; The second is to press the border with heavy troops to force the Qing army in Guangxi. After Wu Sangui's incident at the end of last year, Wu Shicong's army had entered the territory of Guangxi, and had now taken Sicheng Mansion and Zhen'an Mansion, and was about to enter the hinterland of Guangxi.
"Shizi! Not far ahead is Zhen'an Mansion! Liu Shengming pointed ahead, and the outline of a tall city could be vaguely seen in front of him.
Qi Liang glanced at it from afar, squirmed his mouth, and ordered: "Find a place with water, let everyone wash their faces, and enter the city after getting dressed!" ”
Liu Shengming asked: "Shizi! Do we enter the city openly or secretly? ”
The little six sons next to him clattered and said, "Deputy Chief Liu!" Since the prince let him wash his face and dress up, of course he has entered the city openly! ”
Liu Shengming is strong in martial arts and loyal, but he is not smart enough, which is quite far from Gui Ming and Chen Zhengcheng. Although Qi Liang likes Xiao Liuzi's intelligence, how can he be allowed to intervene as a small minion in such a military matter? Se Li angrily reprimanded: "Do you have a part to speak here?" "You can't let the eunuchs get involved in politics, and you can't develop the habit of pampering and arrogant and acting arbitrarily.
Xiao Liuzi was stunned, Liu Shengming glanced at him apologetically, and he already understood what to do.
Washing off the dust and polishing the gun helmet, Qi Liang roared: "Get on the horse!" More than 200 people flew on their horses, and Qi Liang took the lead in rushing to the front and ran towards Zhen'an City.
The gate of Zhen'an City has been opened, a flag is displayed outside the west gate, and the phalanx of neat queues stands with the sun back. Rushing closer, Qi Liang stopped and waved his hand, two hundred horsemen followed, Qi Liang paced and squinted ahead, suddenly adjusted the horse's head, and shouted: "Line up!" ”
Suddenly, two hundred horsemen lined up in two teams in an orderly manner.
"Raise your gun!"
With a "bang", more than 200 people raised their spears in unison, and then, Qi Liang led the way slowly towards the phalanx. To twenty meters away, three people rushed out of the phalanx, the first was Liu Dexiang, the captain of the first team of the Mingwei of the Flying Leopard Group, he led several guards into the city in advance, in the middle was a general with a red tassel on his head, and the last one was a small soldier, who should be the general's personal guard.
General Hongying jumped off his horse and saluted: "Wu Shicong knocks to see the prince!" ”
Hearing that this high-ranking general was not inferior and his eyes were empty, Qi Liang came to meet him only after he specially reorganized his military might to show his strength, "General, please get up!" Qi Liang jumped off the horse and looked at this Wu disciple who was older than himself and younger than himself, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wide forehead and long ears, and a peaceful face, which was approachable, not at all like the rumors. But Qi Liang didn't think so, the rumors were by no means groundless, and Wu Shicong's meeting ceremony did not show respect for the prince, and he was secretly vigilant in his heart.
"Please come to the city!" Wu Shicong stepped aside, his eyes glancing at Qi Liang's back, the well-trained guards, and his heart tightened.
"The general and the little king go together!" Qi Liang jumped on the horse and waited for Wu Shicong, the guards behind had wrapped the two of them in it, if there was an accident, Wu Shicong would be the first to die!
The phalanx made way of the way, and more than 200 people passed through the phalanx. After entering the city, before the tea was served, Qi Liang asked, "Where is the general's troops?" ”
Wu Shicong replied: "The 10,000 troops of Sicheng Mansion have reached the Hongshui River (now Hongshui River), the 15,000 army has reached the right river, and the Zhen'an Mansion has 5,000 troops as the rear army!" ”
Looking at the primitive and rough combat map on the table, Qi Liang turned his head sideways and said, "The general's main direction of attack is Nanning Mansion?" Wu Shicong nodded: "Exactly!" ”
Qi Liang took a deep look at Wu Shicong, for so long, 10,000 troops are on the Hongshui River, but 15,000 troops are not down the right river, I don't know if this general is incompetent or not advancing to preserve strength?
"Does the general have any secret orders from His Royal Highness King Zhou?" The boss is still staying in the rear army, and Qi Liang's face is getting worse and worse.
"Nope!" Wu Shicong was like nothing to do, and he didn't care about Qi Liang's changes at all.
Qi Liangmu was speechless, and threw out a few words: "Change the direction of the main attack!" ”
"Why?" Wu Shicong is proud, and he is angry in his heart, do you say change it?
Qi Liang said stiffly: "Xiao Wang holds His Royal Highness's edict!" He took out a roll of silk from his bosom.
Wu Shicong glanced at it, threw the silk silk on the table and said, "The edict didn't let me change the direction of attack!" "The above just ordered Wu Shicong to speed up the march and take the entire territory of Guangxi as soon as possible.
Sure enough, he is not inferior and self-righteous! Qi Liang had a gloomy face and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness still has an edict, attack Guilin Mansion in the north, and someone in Guilin Mansion will answer it!" ”
Wu Shicong had already obtained Wu Sangui's secret decree at this point, but I don't know who the person who answered?
"The general doesn't want to? In this way, Xiao Wang is willing to lead the army to go! Qi Liang pressed tightly.
"Obedience!" The credit for being robbed is small, and the power of the army is big, Wu Shicong has no choice but to respond.
Qi Liang smiled with a sudden smile: "The general will set off at noon, Xiao Wang is quietly waiting for the general's good news in the town!" "This trip can force Wu Shicong to speed up the march, even if the goal is achieved.
Leaving at noon? Wu Shicong was stunned, he was really urging his life to return to the ghost! Now he knows that this son of the world is powerful, and he has to give in when he talks and laughs.
Wu Shicong's army crossed the Hongshui River, and five days later, approached to the territory of Guilin City for 300 miles, and Guilin Mansion offered books and money to surrender, but no one expected that the person who met Wu's army in Guilin was Sun Yanling!
Sun Yanling is the son-in-law of the late King Kong Youde of Dingnan, Kong Youde's family was martyred in Guangxi when he resisted the Southern Ming Dynasty, leaving only one daughter, named Sizhen, who was kept in the palace, and was recognized as a righteous daughter by Xiaozhuang, and became the righteous sister of Emperor Shunzhi and the imperial aunt of Emperor Kangxi. When he grew up, he married Sun Yanling as his wife. The husband is expensive to his wife, and the imperial court ordered Sun Yanling to guard Guangxi and govern the southern domain, and the position of Lu is almost the same as that of the three kings of Yunnan, Fujian and Guangdong. It's just that Kong Sizhen, the only "Han personality" in history, often coerced Sun Yanling by relying on his own power, Sun Yanling was unbearable to be a wife and slave, and turned against him many times, and he had a different heart. After Wu Sangui's uprising, he secretly sent an envoy to recruit Sun Yanling, Sun Yanling was noncommittal, and it was decided to watch the wind, until Wu Sangui was impatient with Wu Shicong's army approaching, so he lured Wang, Meng and other officials to the mansion, killed them all, and then sent people to pay and surrender. He also grew his hair and changed his clothes, sent troops to rebel, imprisoned Wen Yi, and killed Liu Hao, the prefect of Xunzhou, Liu Qinlin, the prefect of Fuchuan, and Zhou Daisheng of Pingnan Zhixian County, in order to respond to Wu Shicong.
After the Guilin Mansion was down, Wu Shicong and Sun Yanling jointly attacked Liuzhou, and Ma Xiong, the admiral stationed in Liuzhou Mansion, was unable to support it alone and surrendered to the Wu army.
Ma Xiong's surrender is very interesting, Ma Xiongsu and Sun Yanling have a gap, and when he descends, he does not forget to silence Sun Yanling, saying: "I will descend to Pingxi, not to descend to Trillium!" ”
The situation in Guangxi suddenly changed, Jin Guangzu, the governor of Liangguang, sent people to Beijing to report that Sun Yanling had rebelled, Kangxi was furious, the Sichuan rebellion had just passed, and there was an accident in Guangxi again. issued an order to crusade: "Sun Yanling harbored evil intentions, betrayed his gratitude and forgot his righteousness, joined up with the traitor Wu Sangui, rebelled, instigated the place, the national law is intolerable, and it is advisable to show the killing." First of all, he appeased Shang Kexi, the king of Pingnan, Guangdong, named him the prince, and awarded Shang Kexi's son Shang Zhixiao as the general of Pingnan, and Shang Zhixin as the general of Kou, together with Jin Guangzu, the governor of Guangxi, to crusade against Sun Yanling.
This is just the right arrangement, Shaanxi sent another alarm, the governor of Shaanxi *** rebelled, and also booby-trapped the Qing commander Mo Luo!
