Chapter 326: Secret Cooperation (2)
Shen Youlong is still relatively supportive of Li Zicheng's proposal to unite against the Manchus, after all, just like Zhou Yang said, at the critical moment, there should be this kind of awareness, no matter what forces can unite together, then they should fight together. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
So he sent to Li Zicheng's department to contact them and discuss cooperation with them in the later period, Li Zicheng is playing guerrilla warfare, don't look at his current strength is only less than tens of thousands, but it is enough to contain most of the Manchu Qing troops.
Azig claimed that when the 300,000 troops went south, 100,000 people were contained in Anhui by Li Zicheng, which effectively relieved a lot of pressure on Nanjing, which is why he proposed a joint confrontation, because he did contain part of the opponent's troops.
If they can effectively unite to fight, it will have a crucial impact on the situation of the war, not to mention that just let the Azig attack on Nanjing dare not send all the troops, which will be the most important thing for Nanjing.
It's just that the officials in Nanjing don't know what the situation is at all, and according to the current situation, there are more people who have an attitude of surrender, and there are many people who have this attitude from top to bottom, once they have this kind of thinking, it can be said that it is dangerous, after all, the war has not yet been fought, you have such an idea, and if the war starts, it will definitely be affected.
It is precisely because of this consideration that Shen Youlong contacted Li Zicheng for cooperation, the Nanjing Imperial Court is no longer favored by him, and once the fight starts, he may really surrender, and it is very undesirable for them to have that kind of idea.
Since this is the case, he must make all follow-up arrangements, after all, for him, he doesn't want the results of Liangguang to be ruined like this.
Contacting Li Zicheng must be done in secret, and at this time, it is mainly based on the Nanjing Imperial Court, so no one else can know that he has contacted Li Zicheng, which will also be beneficial to his follow-up work arrangements.
The cooperation with Li Zicheng was mainly carried out in the later stage of the Battle of Nanjing, and once Nanjing was lost, he would cooperate with them, after all, it was not unexpected for him to have such an effect, of course, the main reason was that he saw through the ordinary people in Nanjing.
Li Zicheng was tantamount to finding the wrong partner from the beginning, of course, there is a reason why he will be like this, after all, for him, he and Nanjing's forces are staggered, and it is more convenient to cooperate, as for the two Guangzhou, the distance is too far, and it is a little difficult for the two sides to cooperate.
It's not that he didn't think about cooperating with some other powerful local officials, but they can't be regarded as orthodox, so he just found the officials in Nanjing to get in touch, but what he didn't expect was that the reply he got was actually not to cooperate.
In fact, non-cooperation will not lose anything for Li Zicheng, after the strategic change, the Manchu Qing want to have no chance of a decisive battle with him, so that he can always preserve his strength.
If there was no accident, he would continue to enter this combat state, but what he didn't expect was that Shen Youlong would actually send someone to contact him.
Lao Shen can be said to be the biggest competitor among the local forces in the south, and he has also heard a little about the affairs of Liangguang, but he has not seen it with his own eyes, so naturally he has heard some words about Liangguang not listening to Nanjing's dispatch.
Naturally, he didn't take these too seriously, after all, he didn't have much to do with him, and he didn't think about cooperating with Shen Youlong of Liangguang.
Since the other party has sent someone, then you always have to show a little attitude, after all, it is good to leave yourself a way back.
Shen Youlong did not put forward any conditions, but said that when he fought against the Manchus in the future, he hoped that the two sides could cooperate effectively, and if he could, he would carry out some funding, and the funding for weapons and food would naturally be indispensable.
As for other things, we will talk about the cooperation in the future, and Shen Youlong bluntly told him that Nanjing may be lost, so he has to make some other plans, and if a new emperor ascends the throne in the future, he will definitely pardon his past crimes.
In fact, this last thing is the key, it is difficult to say whether you can get the materials, after all, it is so far apart, it is too difficult for the two sides to help in the materials, and pardoning this is equivalent to giving him a white body.
If he can't be pardoned, he won't be recognized, and even if he is a thief in the future, he can't be accepted.
After hearing this assurance, Li Zicheng felt that this was okay, after all, for him, being recognized was equivalent to being recognized in the future.
Since Shen Youlong of Liangguang is not optimistic about the Nanjing Imperial Court, it seems that the rumors are not false at all, and they really don't trust each other much, so the current situation will occur, if they are not mistaken, it should be that they still support one after Emperor Hongguang of Nanjing.
Or Shen Youlong himself has the idea of becoming an emperor, if Shen Youlong has also said this idea, after all, he controls such a large territory as Liangguang, not to mention that he is very strong in strength, and he is also supported by the military and people of Liangguang.
The most important thing is that there is no threat from the sea with his back, and it is very important that there is no threat from other places, as long as there is no threat from other places, then he has no worries.
Therefore, he should have a much greater advantage than other forces in sending troops to fight in a unified manner.
On the premise, they should be able to achieve a lot of success.
Li Zicheng thought to himself that since he couldn't cooperate with Nanjing, cooperating with Shen Youlong was not a bad way, after all, the strength of Liangguang was still very strong, and the strength of Liangguang could be said to be ranked first or second among the entire southern forces, Zheng Zhilong's strength was not weak, because his army had nearly 100,000 people, so it was inevitable that everyone thought that his power was the strongest.
If these people in the south have any ideas, there are only a few people who can dominate the world the most, one of which is Liangguang, and one is Zheng Zhilong.
In terms of the current situation, Lao Shen seems to be unwilling to be lonely, since he has proposed cooperation, it is possible to want to seize the world, since he will cooperate with him in this way, maybe both sides can still take what they need.
And the most important thing is that Shen Youlong is very generous, and he shot a silver ticket of 100,000 taels as a meeting gift pillar to give them as a fee to resist the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which made Li Zicheng see that Liangguang still has a certain economic strength, it seems that he has underestimated these people in the south before, and it is time to conduct a thorough investigation of them, only by understanding the other party's situation can we cooperate well.
