In the Forbidden City of the capital, Emperor Yongli sat in the imperial study, Wu Sangui, who had been given a seat, sat on the side, and several eunuchs and palace maids stood beside him. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Since I returned to Beijing, the King of Jin rarely entered the palace, I heard that he is not in good health, Wu Aiqing knows about this?" Yongli is still very concerned about Li Dingguo, who is loyal to him. If there is no Li Dingguo, not to mention that Yongli can return to the Forbidden City today, I am afraid that he has already been poisoned by reckless people in Myanmar.

When the Southern Ming Dynasty was in the southwest, it was Li Dingguo who was loyal and always maintained this court. If it is decided today, Li Dingguo is sick in bed.

"Your Majesty, the King of Jin has been fighting for many years, and he will personally lead the army to charge into battle, and he is injured and sick, and he relies on one breath to support him. Now that my Ming Dynasty is about to calm the world, King Jin is relieved and falls ill. Wu Sangui said regretfully on his mouth, but in his heart, he wished that Li Dingguo would die of illness as soon as possible. Li Dingguo's son knew that his father would die soon, and he had already secretly expressed his loyalty to Wu Sangui. As long as Li Dingguo died, Wu Sangui would be able to take the opportunity to control Li Dingguo's army.

Although the Jin King does not have many troops, they are all veterans of a hundred battles, and they have the elite weapons provided by the Qiongzhou Army before, which is a force to be reckoned with.

Yongli sighed: "King Rong Ma of Jin has fought in the east and west all his life, and he has been kind to me and me, but I didn't expect to be about to calm the world, but he fell, I am really ashamed of the King of Jin!" ”

Wu Sangui changed the topic: "Your Majesty, during the celebration ceremony of your return to the palace, King Nan not only did not come, but also stationed the army in Tianjin!" This Tianjin is the gate of the capital, and the army of the king of the south is gathered in Tianjin, and he does not dare to enter the capital to face the saint. If this person has a disobedient heart and launches a rebellion in Tianjin, I am afraid that the capital will be in danger! ”

Yongli was frightened into a cold sweat: "Wu Aiqing, in your opinion, how should I deal with it?" ”

Wu Sangui frowned slightly, pretending to think for a moment before he spoke: "Your Majesty, you are the son of the Great Tomorrow, even if King Nan is proud of his achievements and his tail is not lost, but as long as he does not intend to openly rebel, he has to obey the order, right?" Your Majesty, you can issue a decree to let the army of the King of Nan withdraw from Tianjin and retreat to the south of Xuzhou. ”

"Retreat to the south of Xuzhou?" Yongli asked incomprehensibly.

"Yes!" Wu Sangui nodded affirmatively, "You must let Nanwang give up Shandong!" ”

"Will he give up Shandong?" Yongli shook his head.

Wu Sangui sighed: "Your Majesty, the king of the south occupies the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are Huguang granaries, as well as the vast cultivated fields and plantations in the South Seas, and there is maritime trade, and his wealth has far exceeded the treasury of the Tang Dynasty and even the Southern Song Dynasty!" Look at us again, what do we have in our hands? North Naoli? After thousands of years of cultivation, the land of Beizhili was already barren, and it was dug up by Bahai and flooded by the Yellow River; Shanxi? Shanxi Jin merchants have all run away with the Tartars, what is left? Central Plains? Since the beginning of the Central Plains, the land has been barren and plagued by disasters. Later, although the Tartar puppet dynasty settled down a little, Weichen and the Tartars fought in the Central Plains, and they were also ten rooms and nine empty. Now the granary of the north, only Shandong remains! If you can't go back to Shandong, I'm afraid that the grain and grass of hundreds of thousands of troops will be pinched in the hands of the king of the south! As long as he deprives us of food and grass, hundreds of thousands of our troops and millions of people will go hungry! ”

"But will he obediently give up Shandong?" Yongli shook his head in disappointment, "I'm afraid that this person won't even retreat from Tianjin, right?" Wu Aiqing, my fate and that of you are in the hands of this person. ”

"Your Majesty, you are the son of the Great Tomorrow, you have a holy decree, if this person refuses to withdraw from the army, he is guilty of rebellion! Then after he received the holy decree, he had only two choices, one was to withdraw from the army; The second is blatant rebellion. If he rebels, morality is on our side. Wu Sangui said.

"However, the king of the south is well-armed, has a strong army, and has the support of the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River and the silver of overseas trade, and also occupies the granary of Huguang. If this person really rebels, how sure can we win? Yongli asked.

Wu Sangui replied: "Our army broke the cavalry of the Eight Banners, and successively captured more than 100,000 war horses, and there are more than 100,000 cavalry in the hands of Weichen. If he goes to the southern water network to fight, this person's water division is powerful, and the cavalry goes to the south to reduce its role, and Weichen is not this person's opponent. ”

Yongli asked again: "Isn't this person a swarm of bee cars in his hands to restrain the cavalry?" ”

Wu Sangui sneered and said: "Wei Chen naturally will not use cavalry to charge, if he dares to enter the north to fight, Wei Chen will attack his baggage convoy with cavalry." When his infantry came to reinforce him, the cavalry immediately withdrew to avoid contact with the king of the south. As long as he ruined his grain transportation team a few times, the king of the south would retreat. ”

Wu Sangui's words are very reasonable, and now the cavalry of the Wu army is already the most powerful cavalry in the East. Although Wang Yu also had elite heavy cavalry and dragoons in his hands, the number of cavalry was too small. As for Zheng Xian's side, although there are many cavalry, if Wu Sangui and Wang Yu fight, Zheng Zheng may not help Wu Sangui, but he is most likely to stand by and watch.

"Okay, I will issue a holy decree to let the army of the Southern King withdraw from Tianjin and withdraw to the south of Xuzhou." Yongli nodded, turned around and asked people to prepare the four treasures of the study, ready to make a holy decree.

Yongli's decree was issued from within the Forbidden City and sent to Tianjin.

"The Divine Decree has arrived!" A long shout rang out outside the Qiongzhou military camp.

Wang [Fu] Chen and Yao Qisheng put on the incense table to welcome the holy decree. Although there is only one lord they recognize, Wang Yu, but at present, Yongli is still the son of the great tomorrow after all, and this bit of face still has to be given.

Hearing the edict read out by the minister, the king's [auxiliary] minister was furious: "What? Let's evacuate Tianjin, why let us retreat to the south of Xuzhou? Shandong is the territory of our brothers who fought to the death, why did Wu Sangui ask the emperor to snatch it away? ”

Qin Cha's face did not change, and he rebuked sternly: "The whole world is not the king's land!" Isn't Shandong our Ming? General Wang, do you want to rebel or not? ”

"Rebellion?" Wang [Fu] Chen sneered, "Our Qiongzhou army swept the entire south of the Yangtze River, captured Guangdong, captured Huguang, and provided food and salary for Wu Sangui. You can go back and tell the Emperor that this world is a gift from our brothers! Even if we rebel, we will take back our own things! ”

Yao Qisheng grabbed Wang [auxiliary] ministers, bowed his hand to Qincha and saluted: "Lord Qincha is angry, General Wang is a vulgar martial artist, and his mouth is unobstructed. It's just that our marshal is not in the army, and the minister will send the holy decree to the marshal. ”

"I hope that after King Nan receives the holy decree, he will not resist the decree and disrespect it." Qin Cha snorted coldly.
