The Tartars are crossing the river!

When the news reached Luoyang City, there was a panic in Luoyang City, after all, it was a fact that the city was empty now, and there were more than 100,000 people in the Tartars.

What if the Qing army attacked the city?

The people were worried that the Tartars would attack the city after crossing the river and then slaughter it, after all, even a three-year-old child knew that the Manchurian Tartars loved to slaughter the city.

As soon as the soldiers arrived, the jade was burned!

For the people, these words were written in the official notices once upon a time, but for Liu Qingtai, who was the governor of Henan, how could he not know that these eight words were not the slightest false, just since he "entered the customs with the dragon", he did not know how many cities and towns with jade and stones were burned.

As soon as the GIs arrived...... Not to mention the others, at least his life is not guaranteed!

Liu Qingtai was not just thinking about the burning of jade, he was also worried about the crime of the imperial court accountant who was a thief compared to him after the destruction of Luoyang City.

Although he had expressed his "loyalty" to the court through the mouth of Tuhai, only God knows whether the court would believe him, and if not, what if the city was attacked?

When the time comes, it will really be a burning jade!

"Maybe they'll cross the city without entering ......"

Almost instinctively, Liu Qingtai thought of the order given by the king of Chu - be sure to close the city and let the Qing army cross. Naturally, those Qing troops would not attack the city, after all, it would take time to attack the city and plunder the land, and there would be casualties. The current Great Qing Kingdom is not the original Great Qing Kingdom, and now they are like lost dogs, lest they be chased by the Ming army. Where is there any time and energy to storm the city and plunder the land.

But now that the Qing army intends to cross the Yellow River, what will they go to when they cross the Yellow River? Why are they going south? What was the purpose of their journey south?

Just when Liu Qingtai was thinking about how to deal with this matter, his housekeeper came in quietly, and then said softly.

"Hometown, someone from hometown is here."

Someone from his hometown said that it only made Liu Qingtai's body tremble, he looked at the housekeeper in surprise, and asked in a low voice after a while.

"People, people there?"

Moments later, someone entered his study.

Shen Yongzhong, who walked into the study, looked at Liu Qingtai in front of him with a smile and bowed.

"Brother Chaoqing, I haven't seen you for many years, I wonder if Brother Tai is okay?"

"Ah......h

Staring at Shen Yongzhong, who walked in in a big way, Liu Qingtai didn't say anything for a long time, the one in front of him was the son of Shen Zhixiang's brother, but because Shunxu Gong had no children, he succeeded Shun Gong in February of the sixth year of Shunzhi, but in the twelfth year, he was dismissed because of something. Although he no longer has the position of Duke Shunxu, he is also the commander of the Han Army, but his relationship with Liu Qingtai is also quite close.

Seeing him appear here like this, how could he not surprise Liu Qingtai, and in addition to being surprised, he was more curious.

"Mingcheng, you, you are ......"

Lowering his voice, Liu Qingtai looked at Shen Yongzhong, who was dressed as a Han man, and said.

"But, but the master asked you to come?"

Shen Yongzhong nodded, and his words were direct.

"Brother Chaoqing, you are in Cao Ying's heart and in Han's mind, the emperor knows it, otherwise, how can your brother's relatives be safe?"

When he said this, Shen Yongzhong added.

"At the beginning, Brother Tai's letter was sent directly to the emperor by Tudu, if it weren't for that, how would the emperor know that Brother Chaoqing was loyal to me in the Qing Dynasty."

These words seem to be praised, but in fact they are warning Liu Qingtai - he has a handle on the side of the Great Qing Kingdom, if he doesn't comply, where the letter will fall at that time, I'm afraid only God knows.

Such words that seem intimate, but are actually threatening. At this time, it is undoubtedly more useful.

"Ah, the emperor, the emperor is also here!"

In a panic, Liu Qingtai stared at Shen Yongzhong and asked. That letter was written in order to deceive Tuhai out of the city, and if that letter fell into the hands of the king of Chu, it would be a big crime to kill his head!

Now what?

Could it be that the emperor wants him to sacrifice the city?

Dedicate the city!

This is absolutely impossible, if the city is sacrificed, where will he Liu Qingtai go? Don't you still have to lose your head when the time comes. The current situation is not a few years ago, the Qing Dynasty is seeing that the country's situation is getting worse day by day, and now, even the capital has been lost, is it necessary to rejoin the Qing Dynasty at this time?

Why did he surrender back then?

Isn't it for being an official!

As for now...... This ship of the Great Qing Kingdom can't get on it no matter what, and if it goes up, it will definitely be a dead end! Such a dead end is never to be taken.

However, what if the imperial court sends the letter to the king of Chu? Will the King of Chu ...... Just when Liu Qingtai was entangled in his heart, he only heard Shen Yongzhong say.

"Brother Chaoqing, the emperor knows that you are in Cao Ying, and he wants to return to the court all the time, but now the emperor doesn't want you to do this, after all, it will be of great use to you in the future!"

Staring at Liu Qingtai, Shen Yongzhong's tone seemed very sincere, and there was a great sense that he had already made arrangements for him, and after Liu Qingtai heard his words, he looked up and said in surprise.

"Ah, then, what does the master mean ......"

Even after all this time. At this time, he still couldn't help but call him "master" as he did in the past, and sometimes some of people's habits could not be changed. Even subconsciously, they will bring those habits into their own behavior.

"The master means ......"

"Granary!"

On the wilderness on the other side of the Yellow River, Tong Guogang, who was riding on a horse, carefully followed Xuan Ye slightly behind the horse, although he was Xuan Ye's uncle, but his nephew was the emperor's son, the third elder brother of the dynasty, and even, if the emperor had any accidents, he was the emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom, and he couldn't help but serve carefully. And the wealth of the Tong family in the future is all on him.

"Third elder brother, even if Luoyang is taken, it will be of no use to us, after all, the Central Plains is really a place of four battles, even if Liu Qingtai is forced to give up Luoyang, will we wait to sit in Luoyang and wait for Minggou to besiege from all sides?"

When Tong Guogang said this, Xuan Ye nodded, and then said.

"Uncle, these things, if you don't remind me, my nephew doesn't know anything, Ao Bai said before, to defeat Luoyang, before leaving to teach Minggou a lesson, this is not impossible to ......"

Give Minggou a lesson, don't say it's Aobai, even he has this kind of thought.

"Never!"

Without waiting for his nephew to finish speaking, Tong Guogang said hurriedly.

"Third elder brother, if we really slaughter the city, not to mention what will happen to Tongguan at that time, it is impossible for the Ming army not to care about this matter, after Liu Qingtai dedicates the city, we can kill it happily, but when the time comes, Minggou will definitely not give up. If Li Ziyuan and Zhu Mingzhong sent a large army to pursue, how should they deal with it, when they left Nanyuan, the emperor ordered that they must not kill the people along the way, because they were afraid of angering the Ming army and provoking the Ming army to pursue, and then it would cause trouble, and now for me, the most important thing is to enter the Tong Pass, and now Shaanxi is still under the rule of my Qing Dynasty, as long as I get to Shaanxi, I will be able to make peace with the emperor, and after I avoid entering Shaanxi, we can naturally follow the Tong Pass, and sit back and watch the pass, so that we can slowly plan to ...... in the future."

Tong Guogang's explanation made Xuan Ye nod thoughtfully, although he was young, he could also hear the meaning of his words, just one sentence - now is not the time to cause trouble, and it is also the time to be unprovoked, in case it angers the Ming army, the Ming army will chase after Tongguan endlessly, and then break Tongguan, Huang Ama's plan will be over, and when the time comes, how can the Qing Kingdom recuperate?

Now for the Great Qing Kingdom, the most important thing is not to retaliate, but to find a way to keep the foundation of the Great Qing Kingdom, and as for the rest, there is no need to think about it at all now.

"You can worship there......"

Xuan Ye looked at Tong Guogang and said what he was worried about, now this army is under the command of Aobai, if he insists on going his own way, what should he do then.

"Third elder brother rest assured, he naturally has someone there to persuade him, the most important thing now is whether Liu Qingtai is willing to give up the granary in Luoyang, as long as he gives up the granary, at least in the next few months, the army will not have to worry about grain and grass, which is more important, Lord Ao will understand."

Tong Guogang is not worried about Aobai, at least he is not worried at the moment, Aobai wants to slaughter the city, just to get angry, but now there are more important things than being angry. The truth of which is more important and which is lighter, Ao Bai can still distinguish clearly.

"Will Liu Qingtai hand over the granary?"

Xuan Ye's brows furrowed, and he was still a little worried about that person after all.

"According to my father's statement, this person just wants to step on two boats, after Tuhai went out of the city, the reason why he was intercepted and killed by Ming Gou on the Yellow River, I'm afraid that nine times out of ten it was also from Liu Qingtai's hands, so how can you believe him?"

Liu Qingtai was just pretending to be clever at the beginning, although he knew that he was clever, but Fu Lin did not give an order to kill his people, firstly, because he didn't care about it, and secondly, because he wanted to be useful, just like now.

It is precisely because of this that he is worried about whether he will completely take refuge in Daming now, if it is really like what Huang Ama said, I am afraid that if he wants that person to let out the granary, it is just a fool's dream.

"He has no choice!"

Tong Guogang sneered.

"As long as his letter is in the hands of the imperial court, he has no way but to do it for me!"

Even, this is one of the reasons why the imperial court finally chose to go south - they know that no matter what, Liu Qingtai is impossible, and they dare not try to block it desperately, as long as he does not give him an excuse to block desperately, he will turn a blind eye, and even give the army some help. After all, he wants to live, and for him, whether he can stop the Qing army or not may not necessarily die, but if he tries his best to stop it, he will definitely die at that time. As long as he sends his letter to Daming, someone will naturally ask for his head. Therefore, he will never and dare not desperately block it.

Just like now, the granary of Luoyang is exactly what the army needs. Along the way, although when passing through the prefecture and county along the way, because there were no soldiers stationed in the locality, those prefects and prefects who were still wearing the official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty took the initiative to offer wages and food when the army was transiting, just begging them to leave their own boundaries as soon as possible. But this is just barely enough to maintain the daily needs of the 130,000 Qing army, but in this way, it will not keep them from running out of food.

But when they arrived at the boundary of Henan, it was different, the officials in Henan had already made it clear that they might not be able to go out, but they would never offer food or grain, and it was precisely because of the lack of grain and grass that Ao Bai and others were eyeing the granary in Luoyang, where hundreds of thousands of stone grain were stored!

It's just that compared with Tong Guogang, Ao Bai is more inclined to attack the city, and he even talks about slaughtering the whole city of Luoyang after attacking Luoyang, so as to take revenge on the Han people. In fact, everyone knows that this is angry talk, otherwise, when Tong Guogang proposed to persuade Liu Qingtai to take the initiative to give up the granary, how could Ao Bai agree.

Everyone knows that this is not the time to be spoiled, and the most important thing is to raise enough food. If you take the granary of Luoyang, at least for the next few months, you don't have to worry about food, compared to silver. Now for the imperial court, the most important thing is food, and many times, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy food.

"Third elder brother, the northwest is barren, hundreds of thousands of banner people suddenly stationed in Shaanxi, with the land of Shaanxi, it is not certain whether you can support so many people at that time, one more stone of grain is better than one stone of less grain, so, no matter what, you have to transport the grain through Tongguan first, otherwise, I can't regroup in the Qing Dynasty!"

Food is important!

These grains are related to the future of the Great Qing Kingdom. Therefore, whenever possible, we must bring all this grain to Shaanxi.

"Uncle, you say, can the Great Qing Kingdom really regroup?"

Xuan Ye, who had been looking at the Yellow River, suddenly turned his head and asked Tong Guogang, and then said that he originally believed that the Great Qing Kingdom would definitely be able to regroup, but on the way south, when he saw those people automatically putting on the clothes of the Han people, he knew that the hearts of the Han people were not in the Qing Dynasty at all, even if they cut off their heads, they were still Han people in their bones.

"Third elder brother, as long as we can go to Shaanxi, the Great Qing Kingdom will have one day to regain its strength."

Tong Guogang's words are very clear, for the Great Qing Kingdom, the most important thing now is to preserve the vitality, as long as the vitality is preserved, there will naturally be opportunities in the future. If not, then I am afraid that there is not even a chance.

"What my uncle said is very true, the most important thing now is to go to Shaanxi, as long as we can all safely arrive in Shaanxi and the Qing Kingdom, there will be a comeback."

Rise like the phoenix!

Looking at the Yellow River, another thought suddenly popped up in his heart.

Will those Han people give the Qing Dynasty a chance to make a comeback?

If the Han people just don't let them go, just like they did when they pursued the Mongols, what will they do then?

At this time, his young face was full of worries about the future......
