Chapter 535: Make Things Bigger
Gao Yihuan sat on the Taishi's chair, and after instructing his subordinates, he continued to think about the current affairs.
After a while, Zhou Dali made a report, and then opened the door, Ji Guofeng walked in, and was about to kneel down when he saw Gao Yihuan.
These days, he has been kicked around, and he is already a little desperate in his heart, so he decided to kneel in front of the Shuai Mansion and force Gao Yihuan to meet him.
If he can't see anyone here, then he is really going to despair, and he doesn't want to kneel down for a long time, and someone in the house will come to invite him.
"Guogong, the lives of more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians in Shangqiu are in danger, please save General Liu and the people of Shangqiu!" After Ji Guofeng came in, he kowtowed in front of Gao Yihuan, knocking his head into blood, and didn't play a little empty.
Gao Yihuan hurriedly got up, bypassed the table, and helped Ji Guofeng up, with a serious expression, "Mr. Ji, what are you doing here?" Ben Shuai can have today, relying on a group of brothers to carry a sedan chair, and it is righteous to speak. Liu Zongbing is my brother, how can I see him trapped in death, I must save him! ”
When Gao Dashuai saw his posture, he was immediately unambiguous, and immediately agreed.
This made Ji Guofeng stunned, Gao Yihuan avoided him, didn't he just don't want to save Shangqiu?
Gao Yihuan picked up Ji Guofeng and said in a deep voice, "This time the Tartars are going south, and the momentum is violent, I must be prepared." In recent days, I went to the south to check the ordnance manufacturing, not in Nanyang, wronged Mr. Ji! ”
Ji Guofeng saw Gao Yihuan's sincere face, and he was immediately moved, and his lips trembled, "If Guogong is willing to make a move, then Shangqiu will be saved." ”
Gao Yihuan patted Ji Guofeng's shoulder, "Mr. Ji, you have to understand that the 200,000 Tartars are going south, and Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi are still eyeing northern Henan. The enemy is stronger than all of us, we have a lot to do, and we have to be prepared to make a move. You have to believe in the junta, in Ben Shuai. Ben Shuai once said that he would not leave a brother behind, and this is also effective when used on Liu Zongbing. ”
The Qing army of 200,000 people went south, and the Ming army on the front line of the Huai River did not dare to reinforce, and Gao Dashuai also had a hard time, which Ji Guofeng could understand, but Shangqiu City was in danger, and he still wanted Gao Yihuan to send troops as soon as possible.
"How long will it take for the Duke of the Kingdom to prepare?" Ji Guofeng asked.
Gao Yihuan's chest was raised high, "This handsome man is already preparing." The firearms in the Xiangyang firearms workshop will continue to appear on the battlefield in Jiangbei, and the Tiger and Horse Army will also attack in the near future to contain the Tartars, but the main force will attack, and it will take some time to prepare. Now we have too many things to do, Shangqiu is besieged, and Mr. Ji can't go back, are you willing to do Ben Shuai a favor? ”
Ji Guofeng's spirits perked up, "If there is something in the country, just ask." As long as it is to fight against the Tartars, Ji will go to the soup and fight the fire, and he will not give up. ”
Gao Yihuan patted him on the shoulder, "Okay!" With Mr. Ji joining, this handsome man is like an extra arm! In this way, I will write a letter, Mr. Ji will pack it up, and immediately go to Hanzhong to see Zhang Xianzhong, and he must try to persuade Zhang Xianzhong to take advantage of the opportunity of the Qing army's large-scale southern invasion to attack Guanzhong. The Tartars were so powerful that they could only be defeated if all the Han Chinese joined together. Only when the raging fire against the Tartars is ignited everywhere in the central government, Henan, and Jiangbei can the Tartars take care of one and lose the other, and Ben Shuai will have the opportunity to save Shangqiu. Mr. Ji, do you understand? ”
Ji Guofeng was excited, as if he had accepted a sacred mission, and nodded heavily, "Guogong, I know how to do it!" ”
Gao Yihuan nodded solemnly, sat back in his seat, lifted the brush, wrote a letter, dried it and stuffed it into the envelope, handed it to Ji Guofeng, and took out a token from the drawer, "Mr. Ji, you set off as soon as possible, Ben Shuai has already sent someone to Hanzhong to repair the relationship with Zhang Xianzhong, persuade him to ally against the Qing Dynasty, and someone will pick you up when you arrive in Hanzhong, you just take out the token." ”
It turned out that Gao Dashuai had already started the layout and was already preparing for sending troops, and Ji Guofeng felt ashamed of wronging Gao Dashuai.
"Don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter!" Ji Guofeng said with tears in his eyes.
Gao Yihuan held his hand tightly, shook him a few times, and then sent him outside the study, looking at his distant back, he couldn't help but bow slightly, and was very satisfied with his acting skills.
After a while, Gao Yihuan's thoughts have become clearer and clearer.
Although the Qing army is strong, it has not yet surrendered to the four towns in Jiangbei, and when there are more than 500,000 troops, the Manchu Qing can use very limited troops.
Lao Tzu made things bigger, lit fires everywhere, and see how you can afford it. The Eight Banners soldiers died one less than one, and it was impossible to be replenished in a short period of time, as long as the fire was big enough, I didn't believe in the Eight Banners immortals!
Gao Yihuan already had an idea in his heart, so that Jiangbei and Hanzhong could ignite the war at the same time, and he would provide resource support and wait for the best time to send troops.
Of course, the resources are not given in vain, the Ming Dynasty has no money, so it is just to exchange the copper ore in Tongling, as for Zhang Xianzhong's side, it will be given less, or even not given, depending on the situation.
After having an idea in his heart, Gao Yihuan was refreshed and high-spirited, stood at the door of the study, and shouted loudly: "Come on, go and call Ben Shuai to judge the six Cao books, Ben Shuai has a big matter to discuss." ”
Hanzhong Mansion, Zhang Xianzhong, the emperor of the Great Western Kingdom, has set up his palace in the city of Nanzheng.
Nanzheng is the city of Hanzhong, located in the southwest of the Hanzhong Basin, bordering the Han River in the north, Yiba Mountain in the south, and going up hundreds of miles along the Han River from Xiangyang, which is Nanzheng.
Zhang Xianzhong's palace is located in the yamen of the prefect of Hanzhong, and the conditions are a bit simple, but there are nearly 100 guards standing in front of the gate between the two bays, which still makes people dare not approach, and they walk around.
After Zhang Xianzhong occupied Chengdu, he established the Great Western Kingdom and officially proclaimed himself emperor, which also means that Zhang Xianzhong has no way out.
Once you are called the emperor, there is no way out, and if you don't succeed, you will be a dead end.
Obviously, Zhang Xianzhong called the emperor, not to seek death, he wanted to fight for the world, but the position of Sichuan made people feel very embarrassed, and they could only be temporarily divided, but it was difficult to fight for the world.
If you are trapped in Sichuan, the Great Western Kingdom will be destroyed sooner or later, so Zhang Xianzhong must fight out.
Zhang Xianzhong had only two ways out, to attack Jingzhou out of the Three Gorges, or to go north to capture Hanzhong, and then to capture Guanzhong.
Originally, Sun Kewang wanted revenge, and he had already said that Zhang Xianzhong would build a warship and recapture Jingzhou out of the Three Gorges, but at this time, the news of Li Zicheng's destruction in the north came, but Zhang Xianzhong changed his mind and decided to take advantage of the collapse of Dashun to take Hanzhong first.
It just so happened that at this time, Liu Zongmin and He Zhen were fighting among themselves in Hanzhong, and as a result, he took advantage of it and occupied Hanzhong without spending a single soldier.
got Longwangshu, Zhang Xianzhong won Hanzhong, and also coveted Guanzhong.
Originally, Zhang Xianzhong was ready to start a war with Wu Sangui, but recently the envoy of the Manchu Qing Dynasty came to Hanzhong and gave a strategy for the two families to divide the Southern Ming, which made the voice within the Western Army a little unified.
