In the big tent, Zhang Cunren and Tan Tai sat and were silent for a while, Tan Tai turned around and asked, "Xiao Qi will vote for King Lu, or will we also vote for King Lu?" ”

Zhang Cunren heard Tan Tai say this, and he couldn't say it.

He followed Boluo from Zhejiang to Fujian, and during his tenure as the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, he naturally suppressed the anti-Qing forces in Zhejiang with his heart, offended many Zhejiang gentry, and King Lu's family was also captured and killed in his office, he didn't know if King Lu's mind could be generous enough to bypass him.

Tan Tai saw that Zhang Cunren didn't answer, his face turned cold, and he stood up suddenly, "Okay! You really still want to sell me to vote for Wang Yan, right? ”

Wang Yan killed more Eight Banners than the other anti-Qing forces combined, and in Tan Tai's view, his falling into the hands of Wang Yan was basically equivalent to looking for death.

Zhang Cunren really wants to take refuge in Wang Yan, after all, the two have only fought in Fujian, and he has lost the battle, he does not have too many grievances with Wang Yan and his party, and now Wang Yan has the greatest power in the Ming Dynasty.

"Can you calm down?" Zhang Cunren also became angry when he saw him say this, "You don't believe me, now you can let your people look at me, and then the two of us will finish playing together." ”

Tan Tai listened and sat back again.

At this time, the curtain was opened by a Qing general, and when he entered the tent, he found that the atmosphere was not right, and reported timidly: "Governor, general, Dai Zhifan has sent someone over." ”

Zhang Cunren and Tan Tai were shocked when they heard this, Dai Zhifan is Wang Yan's confidant and can represent Wang Yan, Zhang Cunren hurriedly said: "Quick, go and please come in!" ”

After speaking, Zhang Cunren saw Tan Tai staring at him, and said helplessly: "This time in front of you, the two of us have also cooperated for many years, let's talk together, okay?" ”

Not long after, an old man in a half-hundred-hundred-year-old Taoist uniform was brought into the camp tent by the soldiers, and said slightly: "The contemptible party is in the New Year." ”

Fang Fengnian has been a bachelor of Chongzhen and King Lu, and he is also a celebrity, Zhang Cunren was appointed as the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, although he had never seen Fang Fengnian, but he still knew his name.

"It turned out to be Fang Ge Lao, please take a seat!" At this time, Zhang Cunren had completely lost the majesty of the Qing court, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to let people take a seat.

When Fang Fengnian sat down, he and Tan Tai both looked at him, but Fang Fengnian was not in a hurry, and after half a sound, he straightened up and said, "Then open the door and build a mountain." The contemptible people came this time on the orders of the King of Hengyang, and specially came to recruit two people to contribute to the Ming Dynasty. ”

Zhang Cunren listened, and his face showed joy, "Sinners have done many evils, King Meng Hengyang will not give up, and sinners are willing to surrender and contribute to the country." ”

Tan Tai on the side saw that he agreed so quickly, so he was in a hurry, and hurriedly kicked him, and said to himself: "I don't know what conditions King Hengyang gives us, can we ensure our safety?" ”

Wang Yan is famous for killing people, although he still has some credibility, but Tan Tai is still not at ease, and the conditions have not been discussed, how can he agree, only need to know how he can save his life, and what promises Wang Yan can have.

Fang Fengnian didn't rush to answer, glanced at the two of them, and then smiled: "I know that the two of you are worried, just worried about their safety after reform. You can rest assured that Your Highness has already explained this and will definitely guarantee your safety. ”

Tan Tai listened, but he still hesitated, empty words, he knew that he was guilty of a serious crime, why did Wang Yan let him go?

Fang Fengnian glanced at him, guessed his thoughts, and said quietly: "Now Nanjing has been recovered by our dynasty, and the south of the Yangtze River belongs to our dynasty, but the ambition of the king of Hengyang is not only this, the next step must be to go north to the two Huai, Dingding the Central Plains, and if you want to go north, an elite horse army is indispensable, are you afraid that after anyway, it will be useless?" ”

Zhang Cunren and Tan Tai heard this, and a glimmer of hope suddenly rose in their eyes, the south was stronger than the Zhou Division and the infantry army, and the Ma army was indeed the weakness of the Ming army.

This reason seems to be said in the past.

Don't look at the current Ming army's invincibility and invincibility, it seems to be very majestic, but that is because of the terrain in the south, which is not suitable for the northern soldiers to fight, and Wang Yan is scheming, almost every time he chooses the summer and autumn when the heat is unbearable, and he also formulates the so-called summer attack and winter defense strategy, which can be said to be exhaustive.

Although these strategies were useful in the south, and the Ming army also showed extraordinary standing strength, once the Huai River was crossed and the Qinling Mountains were out, on the endless plain, it was still difficult for the infantry in the south to compete with the cavalry, so Wang Yan wanted to go on a northern expedition, and he must need a huge cavalry as a backing, which inevitably changed his attitude towards the Manchu generals.

Before, the Ming Dynasty was at a disadvantage, so it was natural to use dead knocks to show determination, but now that the situation has improved, the policy must also be flexible.

Tan Tai thought for a while, if this was the reason, Wang Yan would indeed protect his life, at least for a while.

"How?" Fang Fengnian saw the two of them face change, and asked with a smile.

Zhang Cunren and Tan Tai glanced at each other, and suddenly the two of them knelt down on one knee together, "We are willing to submit to King Hengyang." ”

Seeing this, Fang Fengnian nodded, "In that case, you can accept a vote!" ”

A month after Nanjing was captured by the Ming army, Zhang Cunren, the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, Tan Tai, the general of the expedition to the south, and Xiao Qihui, the governor of Zhejiang, led more than 40,000 Qing soldiers to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

The Manchu government was immediately in turmoil, and along with these news came a Ming Dynasty residence newspaper, on which Zhang and Tan each unveiled a post, which was full of words scolding Dolgon and the Manchu court, and listing various atrocities of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Dolgon's view was like thunder, and some subordinates suggested killing Zhang Cunren and Tan Tai's family to vent their anger, but Dolgon was still a little hesitant about this, he knew intellectually that the two were also forced to do so, and leaving their families may be able to reverse in the future, kill their families, and the two will be completely clear.

Duo Er Roll was a little hesitant about this, but at this time, the university scholar Zhan Ba deliberately said: "Now that the situation is reversed and people's hearts are in turmoil, if you don't kill the two family members, I am afraid that some people will follow suit." Does the regent want to save the hearts of these two, or does he want the entire Qing Dynasty to be unstable? ”

The Qing court was violently shaken, and it was indeed easy for people to follow suit in the future if they did not kill two family members, and for Dorgon, stability was now greater than everything else.

Such a large-scale surrender to the Ming Dynasty is rare in history, and this trend must be killed.

Dolgon immediately ordered the Ming Dynasty to be executed, and more than 400 family members of Zhang Cunren, Tan Tai, Xiao Qihui, and the surrendered generals who were stranded in Beijing were all killed, and the Qing court was silent about it.

Soon after, the news of Dolgon's beheading of Zhang Cunren, Tan Tai and some of the generals' families spread to Nanjing through the intelligence of the Ming army.

At this time, Zhang and Tan, who had been under house arrest by Wang Yan for many days, learned that all their relatives had been killed, wept bitterly and cried blood, and vowed to take revenge on Dolgon.

A few days later, Wang Yan took time out to meet the two, and after some encouragement, let the two lead the army and send it to Huguang Racecourse to help Wang Yan train cavalry.

For Zhang and Tan, they naturally knew that the killing of their family members was inseparable from the operation of Wang Yan and the Ming Dynasty, but the practice of rolling more children really chilled the hearts of the two, and they now have no third choice, they can only use their own abilities to serve the Ming Dynasty.

Zhejiang's affairs, Zhang and Tan's affairs, are just a small episode in the many affairs of the Ming Dynasty in September, and as the autumn harvest approaches, a greater challenge has come.
