Chapter 177: The Eight Kings Go to Wuchang

Nanyang's royal body is also a famous figure in history, and the ending of this person can be said to be sad.

In 1645, after Li Zicheng was killed, the internal chaos of the Dashun army, Wang Tizhong took the opportunity to kill Bai Wang, the general of the Shun army, led his troops to surrender to Azig, and became the deputy general of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

After that, he and Jin Shenghuan led the army to the south, claiming that the 200,000 Manchurian soldiers were coming, and surrendering could avoid the slaughter of the city, scaring away the governor of Jiangxi in the Ming Dynasty, and occupying Nanchang without blood.

After that, he continued to fight, breaking Fuzhou and other places, and collecting the northern part of Jiangxi for the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

At this time, the Manchu shaving order came, and Jin Shenghuan took the lead in shaving his hair, but Wang Tizhong hesitated and resolutely did not shave his head.

So Jin Shenghuan discussed with Wang Deren, Wang Tizhong's subordinate, and killed Wang Tizhong.

Wang Tizhong first killed Bai Wang, the main general who could not surrender to the Qing Dynasty, but because he refused to shave his hair, he was killed by Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren.

This ending is really sad, a little embarrassing, and a little speechless.

And what is even more speechless is that Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren in the king's body were killed, and soon after cutting their braids and raising the banner of righteousness to resist the Qing Dynasty, the two old brothers guarded Nanchang for eight months, and finally the city was killed by the Qing army.

Looking at what these three old brothers are doing, it is really hateful and hateful, and I can only feel speechless.

At this time, these three elder brothers, Jin Shenghuan has been accepted by Gao Yihuan, and Wang Tizhong and Wang Deren are in Nanyang.

This time, Gao Yihuan wants to fight Xiangyang, and he only has 5,000 soldiers and horses, so it is naturally difficult to scare Zuo Liangyu.

According to the information obtained by Gao Yihuan, after Zuo Liangyu fled back to Xiangyang, he still had 200,000 people, even if it was a rabble, but the numerical advantage was there, and it was indeed very troublesome.

If Zuo Liangyu only guards the city, then Gao Yihuan can only look at the city and sigh.

The only way for Gao Yihuan to obtain Xiangyang was to pretend to be a tiger, pull up Li Zicheng's banner, lie that Li Zicheng was going to march south, pretend to be Li Zicheng's striker, fight one or two victories, and scare Zuo Liangyu away.

And since it is Li Zicheng's striker, the men and horses can't be too shabby, and the momentum of the five thousand people is a little insufficient.

Li Zicheng fought hundreds of thousands of people at every turn, and regardless of whether he could fight or not, he first used that posture all over the mountains and fields to scare the opponent into fear.

Gao Yihuan must have at least 10,000 people, otherwise how can he be embarrassed to say that he is Li Zicheng's striker?

However, Gao Yihuan only had more than 9,000 people in total, and he had to leave 4,000 people to guard his home, so he had to mobilize Nanyang's soldiers and horses to accompany him.

Under normal circumstances, Wang Tizhong may not listen to him, but with Li Zicheng's handwriting, the situation is different.

Gao Yihuan accepted the pardon with some joy, and Zhou Ronghua on the side said with a smile on his face: "Brother Gao, after talking about business, let's talk about private matters." ”

Not long ago, Zhou Ronghua came to Runing and informed him of the news of Li Zicheng's proclamation as emperor, as well as the reward given to him by the Dashun court.

The two also reached a deal to exchange craftsmen for materials, and Zhou Ronghua sent more than 300 craftsmen to Gao Yihuan.

It was precisely because of this transaction that Gao Yihuan's workshop outside the city was able to make a cannon in a short period of time.

However, craftsmen are also important strategic resources, and it is impossible for Zhou Ronghua to send all the craftsmen in Guanzhong to him.

When Li Zicheng first entered Guanzhong, he was busy claiming the title of emperor and had no time to take care of the craftsmen, but with the Dashun Imperial Court, the affairs of Guanzhong were gradually straightened out, the official system was gradually improved, and the newly opened six governments also slowly noticed the craftsmen.

After Li Zicheng became emperor, the thieves began to initially take power, and the emerging Dashun Dynasty also wanted to build weapons and armor, build palaces and pavilions, and also noticed the craftsmen.

In this way, Zhou Ronghua did not have a craftsman to send him, and the transaction between the two was slowly interrupted.

Gao Yihuan listened to Zhou Ronghua's words, and knew what he was going to say, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: "Brother Zhou, I already told you about the situation last time, and I'm afraid I won't be able to exchange much with you now." ”

Gao Yihuan was about to take Xiangyang, and he expected that it would not be difficult to get rid of Zuo Liangyu.

With Zuo Liangyu's urine, once he thought that Li Zicheng would go south, he would definitely run away, but after Zuo Liangyu ran away, what to do with Xiangyang is a big problem.

According to the information obtained by Gao Yihuan, more than 200,000 people in Zuo Liangyu ate and drank in Xiangyang, and the people's livelihood in Xiangyang had already been completely destroyed.

Gao Yihuan must prepare a large amount of grain and grass for relief.

"Why is there nothing!" Zhou Ronghua hurriedly said: "Runing Mansion is full of grain, Brother Gao doesn't want to sit on the ground and raise the price!" ”

The last time Zhou Ronghua came over, he saw the land of Runing Mansion along the way, most of which were planted with wheat, and it was expected that there would be a bumper harvest this year, so he came to Runing again.

Gao Yihuan reacted when he heard this, Zhou Ronghua had already concluded that he had food, but he couldn't say that he wanted to use the food to help the displaced people in Xiangyang.

The two have been trading for so long, and Gao Yihuan can't offend him, but it's a troublesome thing.

Now Zhou Ronghua has a lot of silver in his hand, enough to buy all the materials in Runing, and he will buy it when he is gone, which is actually not a good thing for Gao Yihuan, which makes him feel a little powerless and unable to satisfy Zhou Ronghua's appetite.

"Brother Zhou, it's not the same thing for you to buy and buy like this!" Gao Yihuan smiled bitterly: "Guanzhong sits on the Weihe Plain, fertile for thousands of miles, you also have to grow some food, you can't honestly buy it with silver!" How can there be so much grain in the world to sell? ”

It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish.

Gao Yihuan decided to remind Zhou Ronghua and his group, which would be beneficial to Guanzhong and Shunjun.

If the Shun army began to cultivate in Guanzhong and restore the people's livelihood like him, then even if Li Zicheng was defeated and withdrew from Beijing as in history, he could still rely on the land of Guanzhong to fight against the Qing army, instead of becoming a thief again as in history.

"Brother Gao is right! But you have to have seeds to farm, and I'm here to buy them from you. Zhou Ronghua said: "Last time, I came to Runing, and when I saw Brother Gao, you have a green piece here, and I was really envious in my heart, so I thought about whether I would plant some land myself." ”

"It's just that at that time, the army was still fighting everywhere, and the brothers were busy collecting all parts of Guanzhong, so they didn't have time to think about it." Zhou Ronghua continued: "Now, Guanzhong has all belonged to our Dashun, and the brothers have grabbed ~no~ a lot of land on both sides of the Wei River, but there are not enough seeds, so I came here to Brother Gao." ”

Gao Yihuan couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard his words, it seemed that he had already affected many things.

Historically, Li Zicheng completely occupied Guanzhong in 1644, and then went on a non-stop eastward crusade, and conquered Beijing more than three months later, and there was no time to run the local area.

Now because Li Zicheng entered Guanzhong a year earlier, the situation has changed a little.

Seeing Gao Yihuan's expression, Zhou Ronghua couldn't help asking: "Brother Gao, don't you want to help me with this, you want me to keep looking for you to buy food!" ”

Gao Yihuan came back to his senses and immediately smiled: "How can it be!" Brother Zhou has such an idea, I have to support you if I tighten my belt! ”
