Yang Zhan is also a character, since he decided to return to Shun, he simply stopped the soldiers outside the city and came to Luzhou alone.

Hou Xuanyan personally greeted him, and when he saw such a spirit, he was also secretly heartbroken. This general, known as the Great Wall of the Southwest in history, unfortunately died at the banquet of his own henchmen.

Looking at how many heroes at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it is inevitable that they will die in the hands of their own people, and the two hundred years of Shenzhou Lu Shen are not prosperous and there are people in Hu'er, just because there are too many traitors, and they turn their backs on their ancestors to harm the country and the people.

When Yang Zhan came to the barracks, his heart was like a stormy wave, how could a general who had been commanding the army all year round not perceive this sky-high killing intent and high-spirited battle intent. Thinking that these were originally prepared for himself, Yang Zhan couldn't help but secretly wipe his sweat.

He is not greedy for power and power, the reason why he hesitates is because he is arrogant, he doesn't know what kind of character Hou Xuan is, and he is afraid that he will stoop to take refuge in another warlord with greater power; The second is because he is afraid that he will hand over his military power and be victimized by Hou Xuanyan. The road in Shuzhong is difficult, Hou Xuanyan suffers from the lack of information in Shuzhong, and the people here do not know the world-famous Yue Guogong very well.

As soon as I saw the Northern Expeditionary Army today, I knew how much I cared.

With these 30,000, without the 100,000 army of Chongqing Prefecture, Hou Xuanyan can take himself. It seems that he wrote a handwritten letter, which is really full of sincerity.

"Haha, Marquis of Jinjiang, it really deserves its reputation, it is really better to meet than to be famous."

Yang Zhan dismounted and arched his hand: "The lower officials are here to meet the Guogong." ”

Hou Xuan acted proudly, took his hand, and said, "Let's go to Luzhou Mansion to talk." ”

Yang Zhan was a little flattered by Hou Xuanyan's enthusiasm, and Hou Xuanyan was a cut above him in terms of official position, title, and strength. Fortunately, he is also an open-minded person, and he is safe when he comes, and he lets go to the city with his heart.

The gentry in the city who had not yet left were secretly frightened when they saw Yang Zhan, so that the great warlords of southern Sichuan died two and lowered one, and the Duke of Yue Guo really had a good means. In addition to admiration, I was also secretly glad that I came early, and this time I caught up.

Hou Xuanyan was by the Luzhou River, holding a banquet, and there was a shortage of food in Shuzhong, so it was naturally impossible for him to eat and drink with delicacies from the mountains and seas.

Luzhou's special mountain mushrooms, fungus, and small beasts hunted by soldiers, roasted and scorched, drank Luzhou wine.

All of you here are quite powerful figures in southern Sichuan, and it is rare to get together and talk to each other, but they are also very speculative.

After three glasses of wine, Hou Xuanyan's strength from last night's wine had not completely faded, and his face was already a little red. He stood up and said loudly: "Sichuan and Shu have suffered from military disasters, causing the people to live in poverty, you are all Shu people, you should know why there is such a result." ”

Jiang Ying, the new prefect of Luzhou, was hired by Hou Xuanyan because he was very prestigious in the local area. He raised his glass and said: "This is all because there is no character like the commander, who entered Shu to save the crisis, and the people's hearts were unstable." ”

Hou Xuanyan listened to it very usefully, but shook his head modestly and said: "Since the first emperor appointed me as the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, this governor was ordered to conquer the east and the west to seek comfort from the south and the north, and manage half of the country to the current situation. I wanted to raise troops to the north and restore the Taoist system of our Han family, but I only hated traitors everywhere and constrained everywhere.

The country of Bashu Tianfu has fallen into today's situation, also because these birds are too selfish and selfish. Although I am in Bashu today, I will leave sooner or later, Wang Yingxiong, the governor of Sichuan, has low skills, and he has failed again and again without success. Today, on this riverside, I have the right to be the regent appointed by the former emperor and the empress dowager to remove Wang Yingxiong from the post of governor, and Yang Zhan, the Marquis of Jinjiang, will assume the position. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar, and everyone looked at Hou Xuanyan in surprise. The governor of a province is determined by what authority.

Yang Zhan stood up, lowered his head and said: "How can the lower official be virtuous, since he is valued by the Duke of the Kingdom, he must be smeared with his liver and brain to repay the Duke of the Country." ”

"Wow.."

Everyone by the river gasped, the two people in front of them, one dared to seal and the other dared to take it, they were all ruthless. Hou Xuanyan continued: "The Marquis of Jinjiang doesn't have to be too humble, he will go to Chengdu with my army tomorrow, Ma Gan has worked hard and made great achievements, I have to comfort him." ”

At this time, a soldier from the submarine battalion came to Hou Xuanyan's side and whispered.

Everyone on the riverside was still surprised by Hou Xuanyan's appointment, and they didn't think that he smiled again: "I just received the news that Xia Wanchun has recovered Chongqing Mansion and Shunqing Mansion, and Wu Sangui has fled to Baoning and can't hold out." ”

At this time, no matter what kind of people have any intentions, they all applauded, the massacre of the Manchu Qing in northern and eastern Sichuan was too shocking. Even southern Sichuan has been made to panic, it is a massacre that annihilates humanity, and it has lost any control. Being able to drive them to northern Sichuan, these people in front of them are really happy.

Yang Zhan had a lot of information, and when he heard this, he asked, "Is the commander going to Chengdu next?" "Ma Gan and Zeng Ying in Chengdu, although they did not do personnel and let the Manchus take advantage of the situation, their prestige in the hearts of the Sichuan people was still not low. They recaptured Chengdu, indirectly killed Zhang Xianzhong, and killed his entire family left in Chengdu. You must know that after Zhang Xianzhong entered Sichuan, he was actually the first force to invade.

Since it was the conquest of Bashu and the opening of the country, the Sichuan people who were strong by nature naturally did not resist less. In particular, the group led by Ma Gan regarded him as the biggest enemy in Sichuan.

Ma Gan, the governor, was chosen by the Sichuan people themselves. At that time, Chen Shiqi was dismissed as the governor of Sichuan, and the Sichuan people who were officials in Beijing were asked to appoint Ma Gan; And the court used Long Wenguang. In August of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Chengdu fell, and Long Wenguang died in battle; The people are the governors of the horses. At the beginning of his tenure, the new official sent troops to recover Chongqing Mansion and killed the thief Liu Tingju; Therefore, the Hongguang Imperial Court promoted Ma Qian's right to the imperial history and governor of Sichuan.

Hou Xuanyan sneered: "Why don't you go?" Resisting the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Sichuan soldiers have not yet made a contribution. Ma Gan and Zeng Ying are still in Chengdu and Sun Kewanghuo. Eliminating the Japanese and rushing to the aid of Liaodong, the Sichuan soldiers had a brilliant record. Now that others have been slaughtered at the doorstep, Nuo is a big Sichuan, do you have to rely on Hunan people to survive? Known by your dead martyrs, there is no successor to the poor hero! If that's the case, I think it's better to simply include Sichuan in Huguang. ”

The crowd present was excited, and their faces couldn't hold back, especially Yang Zhan, whose face was even more swollen, and he got up and said: "The Sichuan people are not dead yet, and we don't need others to avenge us." Baoning Mansion is also a Sichuan land, we must take it back ourselves, kill Wu Sangui and Aobai, and avenge the dead villagers. ”

"Okay, then follow me to Chengdu and meet our governor Ma Gan and Zeng Ying, a famous general in Sichuan."
