The news that the Longjiang Dockyard and various official shipyards in the south of the Yangtze River were about to be contracted out spread from Jinling, and every powerful merchant was eagerly awaiting.
At the same time, Guangxi's good news was frequent, Zhai Shiyun had been captured, and Ding Kuichu and others were also in a panic. They just feel that the Ming Dynasty has no emperor, and they want to support one and live an addiction to the dragon's work. I didn't expect that Hou Xuanyan would really fight when he said it, and he couldn't help but fight so much
Hou Xuanyan can be said to be in good spirits on happy occasions, and let Qin He buy himself a mansion in Wuyi Lane.
Today is the joy of the housewarming of the Duke of Yue, and the officials who are familiar with each other come to celebrate, and now it is still a national funeral, so naturally the guests cannot be feasted, and everyone also puts down their gifts and leaves.
Hou Xuanyan played himself in the inner courtyard, drank a few glasses, and after half a year of bloody fighting, he finally got the hard-won good situation, which is gratifying. As long as the south is stabilized, after a period of recuperation, the chances of winning the Northern Expedition in one fell swoop will be greatly increased. The sake in that cup fell into the mouth, and all kinds of beautiful scenes seemed to be right in front of you. Wang Shi set the Central Plains Day in the north, and it will be tomorrow in the near future.
A rush of footsteps came, and Hu Bawan, who came in a hurry, didn't bother to knock on the door, directly pushed open the door, and shouted: "Dashuai, something is wrong, Wu Sangui and Ao Bai joined forces to capture Baoning Mansion, Shunqing Mansion, and Chongqing Mansion one after another." Half of Sichuan has fallen into the hands of the Qing soldiers, and Guarjiaao slaughtered the city, and the casualties are incalculable. ”
Hou Xuanyan jumped up directly from the stool, grabbed his shoulders and asked, "Why is this so?" Zhang Xianzhong! ”
Hu Bawan saw that his face was ugly and scary, and hesitated to continue, Hou Xuanyan said angrily: "Say it quickly!" ”
Zhang Xianzhong was in a stalemate with Wu Sangui and Aobai in Hanzhong, and Ma Gan, the governor of Sichuan, took the opportunity to send troops to attack Chengdu Mansion. When his soldiers heard that Lao Nest had been beaten, their morale plummeted and they wanted to retreat to Chengdu. Zhang Xianzhong forcibly asked them to fight a decisive battle with the Qing soldiers, and when they encountered Sun Creek, Zhang Xianzhong's men had no fighting spirit and were defeated by the Qing soldiers. Zhang Xianzhong himself was killed by his rebel general Liu Jinzhong, and the Xianzhong army was defeated. After Wu Sangui won, he did not go straight to Chengdu, but turned around to attack Chongqing Prefecture.
The soldiers of Chongqing Mansion were all dragged to Chengdu, and the emptiness along the way was as if there was no defense, so that the Qing soldiers took Chongqing Mansion without much effort. The Sichuan people along the way rose up to resist, which angered Ao Bai and Wu Sangui, and they issued an order to declare: the people and thieves are mixed, the jade is inseparable, or the whole city is slaughtered, or the men are slaughtered and the women are kept. There are very few people alive in these places today."
After listening to this, Hou Xuanyan was furious, kicked the chair over, and scolded: "Lao Tzu has three orders, don't beat Zhang Xianzhong, don't beat Zhang Xianzhong, this group of rats and rats have buried hundreds of thousands of people in Sichuan, and they can't afford to kill them thousands of times!" ”
Hu Bawan wanted to speak again and again, and finally knew that the military situation was urgent and could not be concealed, and continued: "The surviving people of these state capitals fled to the neighboring state capital. The traitor Zhang Zongfan took the opportunity to gather the hearts of the people, and under the banner of revenge, collected all the defeated troops in Sichuan, recruited fleeing young and strong, and had gathered 130,000 horses. ”
Hou Xuanyan was obviously stunned, and said: "Zhang Zongfan is a Xiezhou, Ma Gan is a gesture, I have already passed the order, didn't he receive it?" ”
Hu Bawan stomped his feet and said, "Hey! This birdman used all his soldiers and horses in Chengdu. Chengdu is the hometown of those Sichuan generals, who desperately want to regain it. ”
Hou Xuanyan laughed angrily, and said with a cruel smile: "Home? They also come with a home. ”
Outside the door, a herald hurriedly came, and arched his hand outside through the door: "Governor, Ma Gan, the governor of Sichuan, sent people into the city, brought the heads of Zhang Xianzhong's family, and showed that they had recovered Chengdu, and specially came to ask for credit." ”
Hou Xuanyan's eyes were black, and he almost fainted, enduring the dizziness of the whirling world, and it was difficult to calm down in his chest for a long time.
Hu Bawan knew that this was angry, so he hurriedly helped him to the chair, and put his palm along his chest to smooth his breath.
Hou Xuanyan shook his fingers and said sharply: "Prepare the horse, I want to enter Sichuan!" ”
Outside the gate of the Guogong Mansion, a carriage stopped, and Zhang Huangyan stepped out of the carriage with a pair of his own calligraphy and paintings.
The doorkeeper recognized him, and stepped forward with a smile on his face and said, "Scholar Zhang, please come in quickly, and the villain will go in and inform Grandpa Guo." ”
Zhang Huangyan politely walked in, strolling in front of the flower hall of Yue Guogong, enjoying the beautiful scenery in the garden.
After a while, Menzi walked out with a panicked expression and shouted, "Master Zhang, go and take a look, Guogong has fainted." ”
Zhang Huangyan's face changed, no matter what, Hou Xuanyan is the pillar of the Jinling court now. If he falls, other forces will inevitably lead troops to attack.
threw away the calligraphy and painting in his hand, followed the door and trotted, came to the inner courtyard, Zhang Huangyan rushed into the room with an arrow. Hou Xuanyan was already sober for the most part, and was calling to prepare a horse to enter Sichuan.
Zhang Huangyan asked with concern, "Commander, what's wrong?" ”
Hu Bawan hurriedly explained the cause and effect, and Zhang Huangyan listened, his face was as pale as paper.
Hou Xuanyan continued to shout: "Prepare the horses, I will personally lead the troops into Shu." ”
Zhang Huangyan sighed: "Commander, we have no soldiers. ”
Hou Xuanyan thought about it carefully, it was true, he was so confused that he forgot about this stubble.
There are wars everywhere, and they can't be mobilized anywhere, let alone sending troops into Shu, Hou Xuanyan still has to worry about whether Wu Sangui and Ao Bai will invade Shu. Half of Huguang is now surrounded by them, and the Hunan soldiers have gone south to Liangguang, and the hinterland of Huguang is empty.
Thinking of this, Hou Xuanyan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, forcing himself to sober up, and the complicated situation in Sichuan slowly became clear in his mind.
Although Ma Gan is damned, he still has a strong combat power, and he has not lost too many soldiers and horses. The remnants of Zhang Xianzhong retreated to Mianzhou, and they also had strong combat power, which was enough to contain the Qing soldiers in Chongqing. I'm afraid that these two groups of people will kill each other, this possibility is very high, and both parties want Chengdu.
"Kuaima sent an order to block Yinxi, divide troops to defend, and prevent the Qing troops from entering Huguang. Gu Yanwu and Zheng Zunqian led their troops to gather in Yuezhou, wait for me to go, and follow me into Shu. Then let Xia Wanchun fight quickly, and surrender as much as possible if he can surrender, as long as Zhu Youlang removes the throne, he can not blame the past. Wu Shengzhao, Qian Sule, and Sun Jiaji paid close attention to whether Zheng Zhilong had any changes, and if there was any trouble, they should focus on defense and not take the initiative to meet them. ”
Zhang Huangyan asked, "Commander, what about Ma Gan?" ”
Hou Xuanyan gritted his teeth, and burst out of his mouth word by word: "Promotion, promotion, and gold, let them hold Chengdu and don't lose the city again." To defend one is to save tens of thousands of lives. ”
The beautiful vision of the early morning was once again shattered by his teammates
