Jishiha had the heart to resist, but in order to pretend to be forced, he even took off his armor.

Behind him were several full generals, all armed with weapons, glaring angrily. There are few Manchurians, and they rely on clothed minions and traitors to dominate the Central Plains, so that they are more united.

The wound on Wu Shengzhao's back has not healed yet, and the hatred in his heart runs through his brain.

"Dog thief Jixiha, don't do it, I'm going to kill him myself."

Wu Shengzhao's subordinates handed him a spear, and he carried it and went straight to Ji Xiha. The others looked at the rest of the Manchurians, and when Ji Xiha saw that he dared to fight with him, he sneered, and took a waist knife from behind him and in his hand.

Wu Shengzhao flashed around, his marksmanship was exquisite, and he grabbed a spear and stabbed it suddenly. Ji Xiha stood still, raised his waist knife and stopped it, which shocked Wu Shengzhaohu's mouth numb. Seeing this, Ji Xiha was disdainful, raised his big knife and fell with his sword, splitting Wu Shengzhao's spear to the ground. This is one force to ten meetings, although Wu Shengzhao's marksmanship is good, but this full general has too much strength.

At this time, there was a flurry of arrows, and the rain of arrows was even denser than today's raindrops, shooting this group of full generals like hedgehogs. Jishiha was hit by an arrow in the back of her head and fell to the ground with a bang.

Wu Shengzhao looked forward, and it turned out that Hou Xuanyan had brought someone here.

"At this time, there is still time to fight!"

Wu Shengzhao's face was full of shame, Hou Xuanyan had no time to take care of it, and said, "Quickly follow me to clear the Eight Banners of Urn City." ”

The Eight Banners soldiers in the city of Wengcheng, when they saw that the commander was fierce and unlucky, knew that even if they escaped, they would not survive. Because the military law of the Qing soldiers at this time was unimaginably strict, and they couldn't survive if the commander died.

These red-eyed Eight Banners soldiers first drew their swords and slashed the captives to death, and then rushed to the city gate with a roar.

Hou Xuanyan saw that many generals were hacked to death, and he also broke off other thoughts.

"Shoot me!"

Arrows rained down, stones and trees greeted together, and the bloody atmosphere filled the entire Hangzhou. Sometimes human life is as expensive as a thousand gold, and sometimes it is as cheap as mustard...

The men and horses outside the city looked confused, and their generals were all dead and fled. Only a group of lower-ranking generals remained, with big soldiers, across the moat, watching their commanders being smashed into meatloaf. The army that had lost its commander was at a loss, and at this time, the Suzhou soldiers, Jiangyin soldiers, and the surrendered Tu Guobao men and horses who had been ambushed outside the city surrounded them from behind.

As the first soldier dropped his weapon, like an avalanche, everyone chose to surrender. Anyway, they are all Han Chinese, and it was their commander who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty in the first place, and they were just acting on orders. Now that they have surrendered to their compatriots, it is easier for them to accept it in their hearts than they did at the beginning.

On the city tower, Wu Shengzhao was convinced, knelt down and said: "Congratulations to the commander, this great achievement!" ”

For the young governor in front of him, he was really convinced, and in just half a month, the situation in the entire Jiangsu-Zhejiang Province has undergone earth-shattering changes. In the final analysis, most of it is the credit of this Jiading widow.

Hou Xuanyan helped Wu Shengzhao up, looked south, thoughtful.

There was no Qing army south of Suzhou that could withstand a war, and soon the gentry from all over the country would lead the crowd to drive out the officials appointed by the Qing Dynasty, and what was most needed at this time was the name of righteousness.

King Lu made waves in Shaoxing and openly opposed the Longwu court, especially the pseudo-scholars Zhang Guowei, Xiong Rulin, Zhang Guojun and others. For the sake of the so-called official positions in front of them, these short-sighted officials brazenly stood up against the recognition of the legitimacy of the Longwu Imperial Court.

Half of the anti-Qing forces of the Southern Ming Dynasty were used by them in internal strife, and it was time to solve this scourge. Because although they are a small imperial court, they are the prison countries supported by the people of Zhejiang, and they have great appeal to people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

If he worked hard and disintegrated the Qing army, in the end he would be cheaper to King Lu, and these borderless lands would fall into the hands of King Lu, and Hou Xuanyan would never be willing to do so.

The anti-Qing cause in eastern Zhejiang was originally carried out by officials and gentlemen such as Qian Sule and Sun Jiaji, who were unwilling to surrender to the Qing Dynasty with a blood spirit, and had the support of the local people. But now it has been stolen by the so-called regular soldiers such as Fang Guoan and Wang Zhiren. These old warlords had the courage to abuse the people and were afraid of foreign wars, and today's war fully demonstrated the incompetence of Fang Guoan and Wang Zhiren.

At the entrance of the Hangzhou Yamen, the rain was still falling, and everyone in the hall was wet.

"Give me the imperial court, and say that the governor pacifies Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and his heart is to Jinling. I am willing to raise troops to fight with Hong Chengchou, but I ask Your Majesty to clear up the troubles for me and persuade King Lu to abdicate and return to the vassal as soon as possible. If someone ignores the current affairs and insists on acting against the principles of heaven, this governor is willing to serve my emperor and keep the outside and the inside safe. "The newly descended sword and pen officer in Hangzhou under his hand, the pen is like flying, and he quickly writes a chapter.

In Hou Xuanyan's view, this piece must be played by himself. Nowadays, the gentry in Jiangnan are looking forward to the Ming Dynasty, and they are still nostalgic for the prosperity and health of Jiangnan at the beginning, and it is very marketable to respect the king. If you are brazenly self-reliant, then you will definitely be pointed at by thousands of people, and you will suffer from the enemy. Since this is the case, we must let the Southern Ming Dynasty court become our most solid backing.

When the recital reached Fuzhou, Hou Xuanyan had already returned to Suzhou, and this time the Suzhou gentry welcomed him. The soldiers and businessmen of Shinong are all excited, Hangzhou is recovered, and Suzhou is no longer a lonely city. No one dared to doubt this Jiading widow, the sudden appearance of the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the young governor.

"What is the situation in Jiangbei?" There was no time to be polite, Hou Xuanyan asked when he got off the horse.

The civil and military forces in Suzhou gathered, and you and I began to discuss the enemy situation. The long-awaited welcoming ceremony ended before it even began.

※※※※※※※

Fuzhou, inside the palace.

Emperor Longwu held the chapter, howled and cried, set up an altar in the palace, and sacrificed to the previous emperors of the past dynasties.

"Hou Xuanyan is my Yue Wumu, Xie Anshi of the Ming Dynasty, and a loyal minister and good general given to me by God!"

What touched Emperor Longwu the most was not Hou Xuanyan's exploits, but his maintenance of his dignity everywhere. Although he was never masked, he had enough respect for himself, an almost puppet emperor. Although he is the emperor, he relies on the Zheng brothers to ascend the throne.

The pirate-born Zheng brothers, led by Zheng Zhilong, set up the Tang Dynasty with the main purpose of being the first lord to consolidate their position as the supremacist in Fujian.

Emperor Longwu was bent on restoring Nanjing and the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, but he was controlled by the Zheng brothers.

Not long ago, He Kai, the secretary of the household department, wrote a letter to impeach Zheng Zhilong and the two brothers for "no courtesy", and Emperor Longwu praised it. It's a pity that the emperor's praise is useless, he was still deliberately persecuted by Zheng Zhilong and forced to return to his hometown.

But Zheng Zhilong is a pirate, and it is impossible for you to scold him and want to pat his ass and go home to retire.

Zheng Zhilong sent his subordinates to intercept the former head of the household department halfway and cut off his ears. When the bloody ears appeared on the case of Emperor Longwu, the real Southern Ming court knew who had the final say.

Since ancient times, there have been no more powerful ministers...
