Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Northern Expedition
It's just that although Emperor Hongguang felt that he had made all the concessions, and had promised to invite the imperial sister-in-law back under the pressure of his ministers, Wang Sunfan continued to roar loudly in front of the emperor: "Your Majesty, do you still remember the three chapters of the covenant with Yi'an Niangniang? ”
Although there are many people, including Ma Shiying, who are in favor of "joining forces to destroy the Kou", but at this moment the situation is forced to be by Wang Sunfan's side, and Emperor Hongguang has to put all the responsibility on Zuo Maodi, the northern envoy: "I have entrusted the matter of peace to Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War, you have worked with Zuo Maodi for many years, you should know his character, right?" ”
Although Emperor Hongguang's words were forced to do so, everyone also reached a consensus, that is, the three chapters of the covenant have a certain restraining force on Emperor Hongguang, although it is not like Lu Zhenfei said, "This palace can set you up and abolish you", but His Royal Highness King Fu had better not treat the three chapters of the covenant between him and Empress Zhang as child's play.
And Emperor Hongguang also said that he did not care enough about the imperial sister-in-law during this time, and would treat the imperial sister-in-law as the queen mother after inviting the imperial sister-in-law back.
Of course, what he is most worried about is the specific reaction of Zuo Liangyu in Huguang, after all, when Emperor Hongguang's enthronement edict arrived in Huguang, Zuo Liangyu was finally willing to read the edict under the persuasion of He Tengjiao and other ministers.
And now Gao Jiajun was furious after listening to Li Xiangjun's commentary: "It is our support for His Royal Highness King Fu to become the emperor, but why are these gold, silver, silk and grain only Wu Sangui and Jianyu, who are completely useless, have a share, and we have no share in our hard work?" Xing Pingbo and Mrs. Xing have to administer justice for us!"
Although among the four towns in Jiangbei, Gao Jiejun's treatment has always been a top-notch existence, but Li Xiangjun's comment with a Shaanxi accent made these Qin soldiers angry all of a sudden.
They originally thought that Li Xiangjun had a more beautiful voice and came to cheer, but now they feel that Li Xiangjun said what they wanted, and even almost overturned the sky, and Li Xiangjun attributed all the credit to Liu Yongxi: "Our sincerity and General Xing Shengping joined forces to deduct this batch of New Year's coins for Jianyu, brothers, do you think it should be deducted?" ”
As the saying goes, if you don't suffer from widowhood, you only suffer from inequality, as soon as Li Xiangjun's words came out, the soldiers below all said in unison: "Yes, it should be detained, sincerity, I respect you as a good man!"
"Uncle Sincerity, our brothers are convinced of you! There is no precedent for my Ming Dynasty to pay for the New Year's coin!"
"Yes, this case can't be opened, if the Qing State New Year's Coin is soft, then what use do we want?"
These Gao Jiejun's subordinates present knew very well that if the imperial court succeeded in negotiating peace with the Qing state, they would be the first batch of objects to be cleaned up by the imperial court, so they fully supported Liu Yongxi, and Liu Yongxi did not expect that bringing Li Xiangjun would have such an effect.
Although he already knew that Li Xiangjun was born with a demeanor in terms of propaganda, he didn't expect her to learn Shaanxi dialect so quickly and so well, and Xing Shengping on the side looked at Li Xiangjun and said: "Uncle Sincerity, this Miss Li is not simple, don't miss such a talent!"
Liu Yongxi said with a smile: "The main thing is that Mrs. Xing supports our Linhuai Town, Sister Xing, if there is no support from you this time, I don't know what to do!"
The glamorous and touching Mrs. Xing didn't take Liu Yongxi's polite words seriously: "I supported you to mess around for the sake of Shengping, but this is the last time, if there is a next time, I don't know what to do!"
Mrs. Xing said this in her heart, although she has seen a lot of things and experienced many big scenes, but she really didn't expect that Liu Yongxi and Xing Shengping would be so able to toss after combining, the last time they joined forces to escort Empress Zhang to the south at the same time, turning one of Xing Shengping's camp heads into five camp heads has made Mrs. Xing feel incredible.
And this time, Xing Shengping and Liu Yongxi even deducted all the coins that the imperial court paid tribute to Jianlu, and it was not one or two thousand taels of silver, but one hundred thousand taels of silver, one thousand taels of gold, ten thousand horses of silk and 100,000 stone grain, not to mention that Liu Yongxi and Xing Shengping only had a few thousand men and horses in their hands, and Gao Jie, who controlled 30,000 soldiers, would also be moved when he heard such an amazing fortune.
But the reason why she and Gao Jie supported Liu Yongxi and Xing Shengping was not that Liu Yongxi took the initiative to move closer to Gao's army or even was ready to give up the Linhuai defense area at any time, but what Liu Yongxi said just now, and now Liu Yongxi repeated these words: "Next time, we will send troops to assist Xingpingbo in the Northern Expedition, and Xingpingbo needs allies like us!"
Although Gao Jie has 30,000 elite soldiers and 9,000 horses, but Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, Gao Jie can not find a powerful ally in Jiangbei or Jiangnan, and even more isolated than Zuo Liangyu who occupies Huguang, in this situation, the rear and flanks need the support of allies, Liu Yongxi directly broke Gao Jie and Shi Kefa's plan, but Mrs. Xing still felt that she couldn't agree too simply: "It's too early to say the Northern Expedition, right?" ”
Liu Yongxi said very clearly: "That's right, it's too early to say the Northern Expedition, after all, Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo can't count on it, Huang Degong...... Huh!"
Compared with Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo, who could not be counted on at all, Huang Degong was a greater trouble for Gao Jiejun, and the conflict between the two sides had not stopped since May, and Gao Jie was determined to get rid of this old enemy at all costs before the Northern Expedition was launched.
In this situation, Liu Yongxi is a powerful ally that Gao Jie and Mrs. Xing must strive for, and after getting this batch of gold, silver, silk and grain, Liu Yongxi's Linhuai Town has unlimited development potential, according to Mrs. Xing's view, as long as Liu Yongxi gives an order, Linhuai Town can develop to nearly 10,000 or even tens of thousands of people.
Although I also feel that Linhuai Town may be useless, but compared to Li Xiangjun's preaching, Liu Yongxi's statement can impress Gao Jie and Mrs. Xing more, so Gao Jie will let the amorous Mrs. Xing send Liu Yongxi out: "I can't count on Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo now, but as long as the imperial court orders the Northern Expedition and the Shi Pavilion Department personally supervises the battle, the situation will change at that time!"
Liu Yongxi said very calmly: "Mrs. Xing, should you rest assured that the old camp will be guarded by Huang Degong?" Give the flanks to Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo? As for the imperial court, don't take it seriously, the imperial court can't even clean it up with me, let alone the marshals!"
This is a good word, and Mrs. Xing feels that this is indeed the case: "How does the sincerity plan for it?" ”
Liu Yongxi immediately said his plan: "The old camp was originally in charge of General Xing, and now Jiangdu is handed over to General Xing, which is naturally foolproof, as for Xingpingbo's left flank, with the cover of my Linhuai Town, there will definitely be no mistakes, the opportunity is rare, Xingpingbo should not miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
