Chapter 489: Li Dingguo Surrendered
In Zhu Cihong's impression, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was not only good at using rooms, but also good at using spies.
During the Chongzhen period, the border towns basically had the figure of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
These meticulous works pretended to be ordinary people, secretly spying on intelligence for the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
It is precisely because the Manchus have these sources of intelligence that they "know themselves and know their opponents", and they can grasp the weakness of the Ming army in every battle, and they seem to be strong and invincible.
Of course, Zhu Cihong did not intend to repeat the mistakes of the Chongzhen Dynasty.
Ever since he ascended the throne, he has attached great importance to counter-espionage work. The Internal Mater's Military Intelligence Division is specifically designed to do this.
They are not only responsible for investigation but also responsible for counter-investigation, which is a sharp sword in Zhu Cihong's hands.
Although the military intelligence department of the inner factory is powerful, the number of people is limited after all. Much of the intelligence work at the grassroots level still has to be done by the government.
Zhu Cihong has always trusted them.
But this time the performance of the Qingzhou prefect made him too disappointed.
Therefore, Zhu Cihong must intervene and must take action.
Only this time he was thinking about who was going to do it.
Of course, the inner factory is a good choice, but with his deliberate support, the power of the inner factory has now overshadowed the east factory, and there is a trend of becoming stronger and stronger.
For the sake of balance, it was time to support the East Factory.
And after all, this matter was reported by the celebrant supervisor, and if it was handed over to the inner factory, it would inevitably make Liu Chuanzong feel cold.
After all, Liu Chuanzong is an old man who has been following him, and Zhu Cihong can't make him feel cold.
After thinking about it, Zhu Cihong said in a deep voice: "The Qingzhou prefect's move is not very appropriate. Liu Banban, you can arrange someone to go to Qingzhou. ”
Liu Chuanzong was overjoyed when he heard this.
Originally, he just wanted to seize the opportunity, and he didn't know who the Son of Heaven would give the errand to.
Now that the Son of Heaven has given him the task without hesitation, this is full trust in him.
Liu Chuanzong hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him: "Slave and maid thank Your Majesty for your grace." ”
"Do a good job, I'm optimistic about you."
Zhu Cihong nodded and laughed in harmony.
...
...
Sichuan, Jianchang.
A cadre of soldiers of the Great Western Army led by Li Dingguo and Ai Nengqi greeted the generals sent by the imperial court to take over Jianchang outside the city.
Not long ago, Li Dingguo sent people to Chengdu to express his intention to surrender to the imperial court.
Wen Anzhi's response was very quick, and immediately after obtaining the consent of the Son of Heaven, he sent someone to reply to Li Dingguo to accept his surrender.
The treatment offered by the imperial court was also very generous, and after Li Dingguo surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, he could not only retain the command of the department, but also accept the feudal Chang general army.
Although there is no knighthood reward, it is not bad.
After all, Li Dingguo is the general of the defeated army, and it is impossible to say that he was knighted directly when he has not made an inch.
Da Ming is very cautious about the awarding of titles.
Guogong is basically the founding fathers.
After that, the generals were basically sealed to the top of the marquis.
Even so, the number of marquis in the Ming Dynasty was not large
Gao Jie, Huang Degong, and before Zuo Liangyu and Zheng Zhilong.
Today, there are only four people who have been canonized by the Son himself.
If Li Dingguo wants to be a marquis, there is still a long way to go in the future.
Of course, he didn't have no chances.
Now that there is still a strong enemy of the Tartars in the north, sooner or later the Son of Heaven will order a northern expedition.
As long as Li Dingguo has the heart, he will definitely get a chance.
His mood at the moment is also very complicated.
This was the first time he led his troops to surrender as the commander of the First Army. When his father-in-law Gu Cheng was surrendered, he was still a young child. I don't remember many of these details clearly.
But this time, he remembered every detail of every negotiation clearly.
"Neng Qi, tell me whether this step is right or wrong."
Li Dingguo suddenly asked in a very stunned voice.
Ainengchi pondered for a moment and said, "I think my brother's choice is right. After all, the Tartars are barbarians, and Huaxia Zhengshuo is still here in Daming. If the two face off, I would bet on Daming. ”
"When today's son is also considered a hero, he shouldn't be aggrieved to do things under him."
Li Dingguo's words revealed a bit of helplessness. But what can be done then?
Now the situation is like this, Jianchang is surrounded by the Ming army on all sides. Even if the Ming army does not carry out encirclement and suppression, just relying on the food blockade can make the Jianchang side obediently succumb.
The big husband can bend and stretch, and he has to bow his head when it's time to bow his head.
"I heard that Lord Wen Anzhiwen, the governor of Sichuan, knows how to march and fight, and the remnants of the original Shun army are like fish in water under his command, and our life in the future should not be too bad."
Ai Nengqi was very optimistic about the prospects, and comforted Li Dingguo and said, "Brother, relax." ”
Li Dingguo bowed slightly.
Now that the decision has been made, there is no point in dwelling on these things, it just adds to the troubles.
It's better to be free and easy and let things develop.
"I heard that there is civil strife in the Tartars. Hauge was sentenced for failing to compete with Dorgon for the throne. This time, although Dorgon won, his vitality was greatly damaged, and a great rift appeared inside the Tartar. ”
Li Dingguo turned to the news he had just heard.
"Yes, the inside of the Tartar is not monolithic. Dolgon, Hauge, and even Daishan are not good. But the harder they fight, the better it will be for me Huaxia. When they are almost finished, wouldn't it be nice for us to reap the profits! ”
He hated the Tartars.
This is also the reason why he did not hesitate to choose the Ming Dynasty among the two choices of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
"Brother is right. Let them eat the dog first, and then we'll clean up the mess when the bite is almost done. ”
The two chatted, and before they knew it, the army sent by the imperial court to take over Jianchang had arrived.
Li Dingguo hurriedly tidied up his appearance and stepped forward to greet him with Ai Nengqi.
In order to show their sincerity, they not only went out of the city to surrender, but also ordered the soldiers to remove all their weapons and armor.
In this case, the imperial army did not need to worry about the situation of fraudulent surrender at all.
The general sent by Wen'an to take over Jianchang was Zeng Ying.
This person can be regarded as the leader of the younger generation of the Ming army.
He came to Li Dingguo and Ai Nengqi with the reins of the horse with one hand, and said in a deep voice: "You two are Li Dingguo and Aine Nengqi, right?" ”
"Exactly."
Li Dingguo and Ai Nengqi did not hesitate and responded in unison.
Zeng Ying nodded and said, "On behalf of the governor, I am here to accept your surrender, after the surrender, you can still be stationed in Jianchang, and you can get your military salary on time." ”
When Li Dingguo heard this, the last trace of worry in his heart was also eliminated.
As long as the imperial court is willing to pay the full military salaries to the soldiers under his command without discrimination, he is willing to work for the imperial court.
These are all good brothers who followed him from birth to death, and he couldn't watch them go hungry to the battlefield desperately.
"Thank you, General!"
Li Dingguo clasped his hands into fists and said, "Please also invite the general into the city." ”
After that, he and Ainengqi flashed to both sides to make way for Zeng Ying.
Zeng Ying was also not polite, and controlled the reins of the horse with one hand to lean towards the city gate.
Since you have to go through the process, it is natural to finish it neatly.
