Can he run thousands of miles from Jiangxi to Beijing to surrender, pass through Nanzhili and Shandong, and pass through the state all the way, and the tenacious will of a hardcore traitor, how can the stubborn will of Zuo Dashuai who is determined to be a hardcore traitor change his ideals and ambitions with a little injury?

I'm afraid even Dorgon would admire it. used inferior military medals to exchange for surplus grain in the family of the big landlord Zuo, Zuo Mengeng was very noble and very atmospheric; Dorgon was happy, cost-effective, and bold.

In the face of the sudden change, the senior generals of the Ming Dynasty were also very happy and bold. Especially Liu Tichun-Liu Erhu, who suddenly held a heavy army, the army of 240,000 made his momentum heroic again, and he was ready to cross the Yellow River east to support Jiang Pai and sweep away the main force of more than 400,000 Qing troops in Dolgon.

Li Jin was also eager for revenge, Wu Sangui followed Dolgon in Datong again, and wandered not far from Li Jin, at this time Li Jin, who also increased more than 100,000 horses, naturally dared to have the same idea as his old comrade-in-arms Liu Erhu, that is, to fight across the Yellow River.

The Second Tiger planned to cross the Yellow River east to enter Datong, and Li Jin wanted to go north out of Tongguan to attack Taiyuan, and the attack of nearly 400,000 horses by the two armies would definitely give the Qing army a painful blow, and even if it failed, it would not hurt the main force and foundation of the Ming army.

So the two wrote a letter to Liu Wenxiu at the same time and asked Tianlang to fight. Liu Tichun even went to Xi'an in person to torture Liu Wenxiu, the king of Shu, and wanted Liu Wenxiu to allow him to do this, but what about Liu Wenxiu? I didn't even want to see him.

The four tigers of the Dashun army are all notoriously domineering and arrogant, Hao Yongzhong is just domineering in battle, that is to treat the enemy in front of him, and he is not arrogant to his comrades on weekdays; Li Jin is known as a tiger, and he not only fought bravely as the nephew of the prince, but no one dared to provoke him in the Dashun army that year, but Li Jin only dared to provoke him, and his own thinking logic was still there, and he would not take the initiative to bully his comrades.

Liu Erhu is different, this is a person who will draw a knife with you if you glare at him, how could Liu Wenxiu, as the supreme governor of the northwest of the Ming Dynasty, have a disagreement with the main generals at this time? So hiding is the best way to go.

Ma Jinzhong hid Liu Wenxiu in a study, closed the doors and windows for him when he left, locked the door three times, and told him with an extremely sympathetic expression: "Lao Liu, don't worry, just bear with it, in fact, we should be content, the emperor didn't send Sanbiaozi to us this time, if that's the case, I'm afraid that even if you hide in the tunnel, he will turn it out." ”

This San Biaozi is naturally the most ruthless Gao Bizheng in the Dashun Army, only Ma Jinzhong dares to call him that, because he is a three, and there are Gao Guiying and Gao Ligong on it.

This person is originally older than Liu Wenxiu in terms of seniority, and he is a person of the same generation as Zhang Xianzhong and Ma Jinzhong. Li Zicheng's brother-in-law, of course Liu Wenxiu has to let him, not to mention that if you don't let him, he will beat you flat, Lao Gao's philosophy of life is that: Try not to make noise if you can do it. Therefore, Ma Jinzhong was very happy to see that the person who came was not Gao Bizheng, but Liu Tichun.

"Uncle Ma, where did Second Brother Liu go?" Liu Tichun is still very polite to the elders who are also the same generation as Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, and Luo Rucai, and Ma Jinzhong also said kindly: "He, he went to inspect the troops." ”

Liu Tichun said: "I've been here for four or five days, why hasn't he come back from inspecting the troops?" Besides, both of your troops are in Xi'an City, the people and horses in the north are all my people, and the people and horses in Tongguan are all Li Guo, who is he going to inspect? ”

Ma Jinzhong said again: "What he inspected is really not people, but horses, and sheep, ha, the army is now short of horses, and even more lack of food, your second brother Liu is now counting sheep on the prairie." ”

"And when will he be able to count?"

"When you're gone, he'll count them."

Liu Tichun was anxious: "Then how can I do it, my army of more than 200,000 is still waiting to be pulled." Ma Jinzhong said: "Open up? Take those more than 400,000 girls with you and eat them on the way? ”

Liu Tichun thought about it carefully: "It doesn't seem to be as much as you said, it is estimated that among the families of those rebels, there are definitely no more than 100,000 old ladies, and the rest are seven aunts and eight aunts, three uncles and two uncles and cousins." ”

Ma Jinzhong nodded: "Oh, no wonder you are in a hurry to go to Datong, are you going to take them over there to find a way to eat, or will you calculate this account, you can save a lot of food for the emperor." ”

Liu Tichun said: "What a begging, I want to take the army to destroy the Tartar soldiers and fight back to Beijing!" ”

Ma Jinzhong closed his eyes and said, "Okay, it's time for you to go and see a bigger city, such as Tieling." As long as you wait for the emperor's will, you can go, don't you ask for instructions? As long as the emperor can agree, even if you want to go to Changbai Mountain to light a forest fire, your uncle will definitely support you. ”

Liu Tichun said angrily: "Uncle, you are not worried about the second tiger." ”

Ma Jinzhong said earnestly: "Uncle is not worried about you, but not worried about myself, you said that you really want to go to Changbai Mountain, uncle must not think about you and worry about you at that time?" You said that the rebels in your hands have so many old families, it would be better if they were all old ladies, but they are all seven aunts and eight aunts, three uncles and two uncles, since the seniority is so high, the age must not be young.

You still have to take them so far, if there is a bad guy along the way, even if it is a person with a thin coffin, you will have to go bankrupt? If you can bring such a large team safely, you will already be considered a victory, and if you can let Dolgon see so many living fathers appear in front of his eyes, he will even have the heart to die, do you believe it? ”

Liu Tichun felt that Ma Jinzhong was not Kuang him, and asked: "Uncle, then what do you say you should do, what about these old Dingkou?" ”

"What to do? Find a way to destroy it humanely! ”

"Uncle is joking, you are a good person!" Ma Jinzhong said movingly: "Hearing you say this, uncle is really happy, uncle has lived for half his life, except that my mother didn't give up hope for me before, it seems that I said this before, and today you are the second."

Listen to my uncle tell you, before these living fathers are starved to death by you, don't think about fighting, you have to help them find food! If you don't give them food, they'll even make you upside, you know? With such a large piece of land in northern Shaanxi, you have to help them organize production and settle down first. ”

Ma Jinzhong pondered for a moment and said: "The civil officials in charge of this aspect, these two days should be here, they were all sent to you by the emperor, I am afraid that you will not be able to work so many people yourself, they will come to take full charge of these, and you don't have to worry about it anymore." ”
