Chapter 151: Arrows are expensive

The ascertained news really confirmed Qi Liang's guess - something big happened! Yue Le, the prince of Qing'an, defeated the Geng army of Fujian in Jiangxi, and had occupied Guangxin, Jianchang, Raozhou and other places, and began to enter Hunan from Yuanzhou to attack Changsha; On the other side, Qingshun Chengjun Wang Leer Jin out of the tiger ferry, Qing'an Yuanjing Kou general Beile Shangshan into Dongting Lake, from Hubei into Hunan has occupied many rivers and lakes of dangerous places, in Hunan Wu army is in a worrying situation!

Qi Liang knew that the Qing army had kicked off the prelude to the counteroffensive, and the Wu army and even the entire anti-Qing alliance had begun to shift from offensive to defensive, from prosperity to decline! The Qing army won, the anti-Qing alliance was defeated, no wonder the attitude of the Pingnan palace has become warm again, strength determines everything!

It's just that Qi Liang wondered how the Qing army could suddenly become powerful? The inquiring eyes looked at Tan Yanliang: "Is that Prince An Yue Le very good at fighting?" "In the capital, he met this Prince An a few times, a shriveled old man, and he didn't find anything special about him!

Tan Yanliang said: "Yue Le is the son of Abatai, the seventh son of Nurhachi, ranked fourth, who once followed Prince Su Haoge to conquer Zhang Xianzhong, who was entrenched in Sichuan, fought bravely and was quite strategic, and led his troops to kill Zhang Xianzhong, the king of Daxi, and was promoted to Baylor. After that, he was in charge of the Ministry of Works and the Zongren Mansion, and his political achievements were outstanding, and he was promoted to Prince An! He enabled the Han people and stopped enclosing the land, which is very capable! ”

Qi Liang nodded frequently, so it seems that this Yue Le is not only a military strategist but also a politician and reformer, no wonder Geng Jun can't stop it!

Tan Yanliang said: "The son! In fact, the defeat of the Qing army in Jiangxi was not because of how powerful the elderly Yue Le was, but because of another reason! ”

Europe! Qi Liang asked with interest: "What is the reason?" ”

Tan Yanliang replied: "It is said that the Qing army in Jiangxi has dozens of Western artillery, which is very powerful, and the Geng army cannot resist at all!" At the same time, the thick eyebrows were deeply locked, worried, Yue Le's army turned from Jiangxi to Hunan, I don't know if the Wu army can resist it?

Qi Liang was stunned, he knew the power of the cannon, the overwhelming lethality, it was impossible to hide, even if the thousands of troops and horses galloping across the country would be scattered, but I don't know what kind of power the artillery of this era has reached? Qi Liang can't get rid of the shortcomings of small power, short range, and large size! On the other hand, he was wondering where did these Western artillery come from in the Qing court? Overseas purchases? It should be unlikely, at this time, which country has the ability to send such a large number of artillery pieces so quickly and in such a timely manner? It should be self-made by the Qing court! At this time, he thought of the Westerners in the capital, Huang Qi of the Beijing Central Intelligence Station of the Nighthawk Group did not do a good job! He had already been assigned to either kidnap or kill these people in Beijing, but he didn't see his report for a long time.

Although a military victory does not determine which side the Pingnan palace will fall, at least the attitude of the Pingnan palace has been shaken, and from the current situation of the Guangzhou Palace, the Pingnan palace is still waiting and seeing. "This old fox!" Qi Liang scolded secretly. Qi Liang instructed: "Please tell the generalissimo battalion that our army must win one or two battles in Hunan, so that we can use it as a bargaining chip for our negotiation with the Pingnan Palace!" ”

After Tan Yanliang left, Qi Liang knew that his request was too high, because since then, the Wu army has begun to retreat all the way, and there are few victories! But Qi Liang also knew that Shang Zhixin had still demoted Wu Sangui in history, and he thought: "It has become impossible to persuade the Pingnan Royal Mansion through normal channels, and the only way to do this is to take special measures to see if you can unilaterally reach an agreement with Shang Zhixin!" ”

The anti-Qing alliance was putting pressure on the Pingnan Palace, and the Qing court pacification mission was also putting pressure on the Pingnan Palace. Ignoring the heat, Qi Liang gradually doubted whether the three fathers and sons of Pingnan Wangfu were singing double reeds? Delaying time by means of negotiation and currying favor on both sides will not allow either side to attack Guangdong with all their might, while the Pingnan Royal Mansion can wait and see how the situation changes!

Time is good for the Pingnan Palace, good for the Qing court, but it is not good for the anti-Qing alliance, Qi Liang feels that he should talk to Shang Zhixin well, he can't waste time endlessly in Guangzhou, returning to Kunming to consolidate his foundation is the first thing!

"Zhengcheng! Arrange for us to go to the Shonoshin Shizi Mansion! In order to downplay the impact of the Yang Gang incident, Qi Liangluo has not gone out for several days in Fulin Mansion.

As soon as Chen Zhengcheng responded, the guards on duty outside came in to report: "Shizi! Someone sent a message of worship! ”

After Qi Liang started browsing, he looked up at Chen Zhengcheng: "I'm afraid that today's meeting with Shang Shizi will not work, we have to go to see another Shizi!" ”

Chen Zhengcheng was puzzled: "Is Shang Zhixiao a son?" ”

Qi Liang shook his head: "Taiwan's Zhenguo General - Zheng Cong!" Then he shouted: "Let's go pick up our good brother - Tang Nan!" ”

Chen Zhengcheng was pleasantly surprised: "Brother Tang Nan was brought to Guangzhou?" ”

Qi Liang handed the greeting sticker to Chen Zhengcheng for him to see, and at the same time said solemnly: "Zhengcheng! This time it must be arranged, I don't want to be pressed and beaten again. ”

The meeting place agreed by the two parties was still in the suburbs, and it was still the same place. When he was about to reach the agreed lawn, a healthy horse flew in front of him, and Liu Dexiang stepped forward to block it and asked, "Who is coming?" ”

The horse was stopped, and the man on the horse arched his hand and said, "Is it Wu Shizi in front?" ”

Liu Dexiang said in a loud voice: "Exactly! Who are you? ”

The man on the horse bowed his head and saluted: "Little Zheng Chun greets the prince!" ”

Qi Liang came over and asked, "What's the matter with Brother Zheng Chun?" ”

Zheng Chun said: "The general of my family Zhenguo asked the prince to bring only five people over!" ”

Qi Liang did not hesitate to deny: "No! "It's a good idea, they have a lot of masters over there, and they haven't been caught by more than five of them."

Zheng Chun was stunned, and Qi Liang said: "Back to your home, General Zhenguo, Xiao Wang agrees that the two sides will have the same number of people, but the number must not be less than twenty!" "The greater the number of people, the greater the effect of the repeating crossbow!

After Zheng Chun returned, Zheng Cong agreed with Qi Liang's suggestion, but stated that if other people were detected, the meeting would be canceled immediately. After both sides sent personnel to survey the terrain and verify the number of people on the other side, both sides were guided into the lawn by the other side's people. Qi Liang sighed in his heart: "Is this still an anti-Qing alliance?" It's worse than Pingnan Palace! At the beginning, he proposed that someone from Fujian should guarantee the talks between the two sides, which was the case in the last meeting between Tan Yanliang and Chen Yonghua, but this time Zheng Cong did not agree.

Today, Zheng Cong was dressed in white, even more handsome and elegant, Qi Liang glanced at Qi Xiyin with jealousy, and glanced at Qi Xiyin beside him, seeing Qi Xiyinmu expressionless, he was happy in his heart, and took the lead in arching his hand: "General Zhenguo!" Let's meet again! Then he also arched his hand to the person next to him: "Chief Cai helmsman has worked hard!" ”

Zheng Cong glanced at it and returned the salute: "Wu Shizi!" But at Qi Xiyin, he immediately showed an orchid-like smile: "Zheng Cong has seen Miss Qi here!" ”

Qi Xiyin's eyes widened blankly, nodded slightly, glanced at Qi Liang, and immediately lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Zheng Cong again. Qi conscience felt a pain in his heart, if Zheng Cong deliberately seduced, Qi Xiyin would not be able to escape. Alas! Why bother looking at your own face? If you like it, you will never stop it, Qi Liang stared at Qi Xiyin with a complicated expression, and decided not to care about these messy feelings anymore, and asked with his head held high: "Is this meeting led by the Heaven and Earth Society or by the Zheng family in Taiwan?" ”

Zheng Cong said proudly: "Heaven and earth will belong to the Zheng family in Taiwan, of course, it will be dominated by my Zheng family!" ”

Qi Liang glanced at Cai Dezhong, saw that his face was angry, pursed his lips and smiled: "Okay!" Did one of my tribesmen bring it? ”

Zheng Cong asked rhetorically: "Have you brought me all the people of heaven and earth?" ”

Qi Liang pointed behind his back: "In the back!" ”

Zheng Cong also pointed behind his back: "It's also behind!" ”

Qi Liang said: "Let's exchange!" ”

Zheng Cong stopped: "Slow! We want to see people first! ”

Qi Liang said generously: "Yes!" He beckoned backwards, and immediately a guard galloped out.

Not long after, two carriages galloped under the escort of several guards, and under the command of Liu Dexiang, six men with their hands tied and blindfolded came down.

"The man has been brought!" Qi Liang said, and then asked, "What about my people?" ”

Zheng Cong and Cai Dezhong whispered, and after confirming that it was correct, they suddenly asked, "Why are there only six people?" And what about the other six? ”

Qi Liang laughed: "Although my subordinates are very important, does General Zhenguo think that it is possible to exchange one person for twelve?" ”

Everyone on Zheng Cong's side was stunned, and Qi Liang said: "Don't worry, after we exchange hostages this time, as long as you agree to one condition on our side, I will let the others go!" ”

Feng Xifan, who was next to Zheng Cong, said: "Who knows if you will release people then?" ”

Qi Liang looked at Cai Dezhong and said, "General Feng can ask Chief Cai if Xiao Wang is a credible person?" ”

Cai Dezhong nodded: "Cai trusts Wu Shizi!" ”

Zheng Cong's people were surprised, Zheng Cong and Feng Xifan also glared at Cai Dezhong, Cai Dezhong calmly faced each other, and asked Qi Liang: "I don't know what conditions the prince proposed?" ”

Qi Liang smiled and said: "What I said to Chief Helmsman Cai before this condition is to let the people of Mu Wangfu stop being enemies of my Wu family!" ”

Zheng Cong was secretly annoyed that Cai Dezhong had robbed him of his words, and shouted: "Cai Dezhong! Is there a place for you to speak? ”

Cai Dezhong changed color, but he did not dare to retreat in disobedience. At this time, the smile on the corner of Qi Liang's mouth was even stronger.

Zheng Cong stared at Qi Liang and said slowly: "If the prince can promise to return the Mu Palace, the people of the Mu family agree to write off the grievances of the Mu and Wu families!" ”

Qi Liang's face fell: "Is this what the Mu family means or what General Zhenguo means?" He suspected that Zheng Cong was talking about it, this is simply impossible, Mu Wangfu has already become Zhou Wangfu, even if he agrees, Wu Sangui, the king of Zhou, will not agree!

Zheng Cong said proudly: "This is not only the meaning of the Mu family, but also the meaning of General Ben!" ”

Qi Liang's face was gloomy, and Zheng Cong said bluntly: "If the prince doesn't believe it, I can let the people from Mu Wangfu come out immediately......"

Qi Liang cut off coldly: "No need! There are only thirteen people left in Mu Wangfu, two of them are women can be ignored, three of the eleven are in my hands, two are with you, one is in Taiwan, two are in Beijing, and three are in Fujian, and I now announce that they will disappear from the earth! ”

Although everyone didn't know what the earth was, they completely understood the meaning of Qi Liang's sentence, and they were not only people who despised Mu Wangfu to the extreme, but also prepared to kill Mu Wangfu.

Cai Dezhong was so shocked that he changed color again, the other party actually knew the whereabouts of the people in Mu Wangfu, this was terrible, and he couldn't help but glance at Qi Liang in awe.

Zheng Cong was choked up, he wanted to tease Qi Liang, but he didn't want to make himself unable to get off the stage. Qi Liang asked angrily, "Is General Zhenguo still willing to exchange hostages?" ”

Zheng Cong hesitated: "Of course I do!" ”

Qi Liang asked, "What about my subordinates?" I haven't seen anyone else? ”

Zheng Cong expected Ai Ai to say: "We didn't bring that subordinate of the prince!" ”

Qi Liang suddenly changed color, and his halberd pointed angrily: "Dare to tease this king?" ”

Zheng Cong didn't care, and shouted: "Rob me!" ”

"General, no!" Two voices sounded at the same time, one was issued by Cai Dezhong and the other was issued by Chen Yonghua. But their drinking did not have the slightest effect, Feng Xifan had already rushed out first, and the others drew their knives and shouted to follow.

"Stop!" Qi Liang was shocked, Qi Xiyin had already dragged him back. And Chen Zhengcheng calmly commanded: "Array!" Twenty guards drew their repeating crossbows and quickly and neatly lined up in two rows and aligned them in front of them.

Cai Dezhong was shocked, only he knew how powerful this Lian Mu was, and even shouted with a crying voice: "Stop!" Stop it! Don't launch! Don't launch! ”

It was too late, Chen Zhengcheng roared: "Shoot!" The first wave of twenty sharp arrows broke through the air, four people fell to the ground, and Chen Zhengcheng issued a warning: "Stop me!" ”

Feng Xifan shouted: "They have no arrows, rush!" "It takes a certain amount of time for a normal crossbow to fire a second round, and that's enough time for them to get closer.

Seeing that the warning was ineffective, Chen Zhengcheng shouted again: "Shoot!" A second wave of twenty arrows was fired, and six fell to the ground. He shouted one after another: "Shoot! Shoot! Shoot! Someone fell to the ground in every wave of shooting, Feng Xifan also fell to the ground and rolled on the ground with an arrow, the people of the Zheng family had retreated in fear, Zheng Cong was also frightened, but at this time, a sharp arrow shot in front of him and pierced into the grass, and a somewhat lazy voice came: "I'm sorry!" I'm scared of General Zhenguo! Qi Liang looked at the sky with a repeating crossbow, and there happened to be a flock of birds flying in the sky, as if he was talking to the birds instead of Zheng Cong.

Zheng Cong's face turned white with fright, and he pointed at Qi Liang: "You! You-"

Qi Liang asked impatiently, "Is General Zhenguo still willing to exchange hostages?" ”

Zheng Cong looked at his own people lying on the ground, both heartache and horror, he didn't know how to answer, but said cowardly: "Yes!" At this time, Fang knew that the disparity in strength between the two sides was too great, and his life was already in the hands of others.

Qi Liang smiled lightly: "General Zhenguo rest assured! I had already instructed my subordinates to shoot only the lower limbs and not the upper body, or if they died, the general would carry them back and pull out the arrows for treatment, and they would be fine. Then he didn't forget to joke: "However, General Zhenguo remembered to return those arrows to me, they are very expensive." ”

Zheng Cong was so angry that he vomited blood, his face was like a dead man's skin, it was very eerie and terrifying, and it turned out that the handsome cream boy was also ugly and ugly!
