The first tornado begins at the end of the Wanderer

And the reason why he hesitated was because if you put aside the social turmoil caused by Zhang Xianzhong's rebellion against the Ming Dynasty, judging from his later performance, he can be regarded as an anti-Qing hero. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the summer of 1645, the regime of King Hongguang of Nanming Fu fell.

In November, Jiannu used the strategy of suppressing and appeasing both He Luohui to enter Sichuan with He Luohui as the general of Dingxi, and on the other hand, sent people to induce Zhang Xianzhong to surrender and persuade him to submit to the Qing Dynasty.

The edict said: "Zhang Xianzhong's previous disturbance is all a matter of the Ming Dynasty", expressing understanding, "Zhang Xianzhong is like a judge of the heavens, leading the people to return, since he should be promoted to the next generation, and the descendants of the future generations will always enjoy wealth and wealth."

He also threatened, "If you wait and see, and do not surrender early, the army will come, and there will be no regret."

However, Zhang Xianzhong ignored it, but strengthened his determination to resist the Qing Dynasty. At this time, the Qing army led by He Luohui was pinned down by the peasant army in Shaanxi, so it never entered Sichuan.

At the beginning of 1646, Jiannu resent Prince Su Haoge as the general of Jingyuan, and Wu Sangui and others led the Manchu and Han armies, and rushed to the Daxi peasant army with all their might.

In May, Haoge led the Qing army to capture Hanzhong.

In July 1646, in order to go north to Shaanxi to fight against Jiannu, Zhang Xianzhong decided to abandon Chengdu. and "kill all his wives and concubines, and kill one son while he is still young."

He said to Sun Kewang: "I am also a hero, I can't leave my young son to be captured, and you will be the son of the world in the end." The three hundred years of orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty may not be extinct, and it is also the will of heaven. When I die, I will return to the light in a hurry, and I will not be unjust. ”

This shows Zhang Xianzhong's determination to resist the Qing Dynasty.

Then, he divided his troops into four, and ordered four generals to lead more than 100,000 troops to Shaanxi.

In September, Zhang Xianzhong led his troops to leave Chengdu and go north to meet Jiannu. In November, Zhang Xianzhong's army camped in Phoenix Mountain in Xichong.

At this time, Liu Jinzhong, the general of the Great Western Army, rebelled and surrendered to Hauge, the commander of Jiannu who went south.

Jiannu took Liu Jinzhong as a guide and led them into northern Sichuan.

On November 26, 1646, Haoge sent Ao Bai and other generals to lead the Eight Banners Protector Army to advance lightly, and launched a surprise attack on Zhang Xianzhong.

On the morning of the 27th, Jiannu met Zhang Xianzhong's troops across the Sun Creek.

In the face of this unexpected sudden attack, Zhang Xianzhong responded to the battle in a hurry, commanding the army's horse infantry to resist Jiannu on two sides.

At this time, the enemy chieftain commander Hao Ge led a large army to follow, and sent the staff leader Gebuku and others to attack the right flank of Zhang Xianzhong's army, and all of them attacked the left flank.

The battle was very fierce, and the Jiannu general Gebuku and others were killed by Zhang Xianzhong's troops, and Zhang Xianzhong's troops also suffered heavy losses.

During the battle, Liu Jinzhong pointed out to the Qing generals and said: "These eight kings are also." The Qing generals hurriedly shot a secret arrow, and Zhang Xianzhong was unfortunately killed by an arrow at the age of 40.

After Zhang Xianzhong's death, his generals Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu, Ai Nengqi, Feng Shuangli and others led the troops to move in the direction of Guizhou.

Later, he united with the Southern Ming Dynasty to fight against Jiannu together, and fought in the vast areas of the southwest provinces, where he persisted for nearly 20 years until the early years of Kang Mazi in Jiannu.

As for Jiannu's slander of Zhang Xianzhong and Tuchuan, Qin Haoming scoffed at it and disdained it.

That's because history has been rewritten by Jiannu.

In 1646, three years after Jiannu entered the customs, Jiannu announced that Zhang Xianzhong had been killed in battle and declared that Sichuan had been pacified, but this was not the case.

Thirteen years later, in 1659, when Jiannu captured Chongqing, and thirteen years after Zhang Xianzhong's death, Jiannu pacified Sichuan.

In other words, who was the Qing army fighting against during these thirteen years?

It is conceivable that the people of Sichuan and Jiannu fought to the death, and the time when a large number of people were sharply reduced should be the period when Jiannu entered Sichuan.

If Zhang Xianzhong is really as Jiannu advertised, "He is a crazy murderer." The densely populated places that can be reached by Sichuan traffic are almost wiped out by him."

So, how can Sichuan, which is almost uninhabited, resist for more than ten years?

It has reached the point of "thousands of miles away, no one will live", so why does it take Jiannu more than ten years to pacify?

Therefore, in retaliation for this stubborn and unyielding resistance of the Sichuan people, Jiannu resorted to a complete massacre.

That is, whether it is a "thief" or an innocent civilian, they will all be killed. This brutal form of repression has lasted for a long time in Sichuan.

In order to conceal the truth, Jiannu framed all the massacres they had committed to Zhang Xianzhong.

Of course, it is undeniable that when Zhang Xianzhong was in Sichuan, his hands were also stained with blood, but there was absolutely no Sichuan people killed by him as propagated after Jiannu conquered all of China.

"This matter has already been decided by the court, if it is repeated, will it not lose its trust in the rebels, damage the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, who will dare to surrender in the future?"

When it was over, Lu Xiangsheng shook his head with a serious face and shouted that it was inappropriate.

Whew――

Qin Haoming breathed a long sigh of relief, and he couldn't tell what his mood was.

Is this the reason why everyone in later generations likes Daming, righteousness and Daming?

There is a bottom line! There is persistence! Principled!

It's a pity that in the troubled times, some of them did not meet the needs of the development of the current situation, and finally ruined the Ming Dynasty.

That's it, now that my own people are light-hearted, they can't control the trend of events, and they can't tell Lu Xiangsheng for no reason that traitors such as Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng will eventually force Chongzhen to death in the coal mountain?

In that way, it is estimated that they will be fine, their own lives will not be guaranteed in the first place, or the development of their own strength is the king.

There are a lot of ills and tumors that Daming needs to get rid of, so let yourself be a scavenger!

"It's the kid who is not thoughtful, take it for granted, please forgive Lu Du!"

Qin Haoming didn't want to explain and couldn't explain it, so he simply admitted his mistake directly.

"Maybe you have your reasons and worries, but the court has its own face and law, otherwise there will be nothing to do and the rules will be broken.

However, the governor can suggest that the imperial court take back some of the military power, and the 40,000-strong army is not a small hidden danger. If Zhang Xianzhong was instigated by Li Rebellion, it was possible to rebel again, and he must not be worried. ”

Lu Xiangsheng stroked his long beard thoughtfully.

"Lu Du is wise, the kid admires!"

Finally, there is something to gain, and if this matter is taken seriously, perhaps the scale of the rebellion will be much smaller in the future. That will undoubtedly reduce the damage to Da Ming.

Qin Hao was secretly happy, and the sycophant immediately sent it.

"And you, in the future, you have to adapt to your identity and call yourself the last general or this general. Don't be a kid on the left and a kid on the right, it's okay in front of the governor, and your colleagues outside will damage your prestige. ”

Lu Xiangsheng taught earnestly, afraid that he was young and young, and he didn't change for a while.

"Thank you Lu Du for the point, the last general will obey!"

Qin Haoming stroked his chest with his right hand and saluted.

"Haha......" Lu Xiangsheng nodded his fingers and laughed, then thought of something, frowned and said:

"First select 2,000 soldiers who are good at horseback riding, and set off after the year. After that, it will be up to you to control it, and the Governor will report it to the Ministry of War.

Datong is a dangerous border, everyone in the clan is fierce, if there is no help from elite soldiers, you are afraid that you will not be able to stand.

In recent years, the Tiger General Army has not been more slack than before, and the military has been more slack, and I am afraid that I will eat part of the empty salary.

If you want to recruit troops temporarily, it will be time-consuming and labor-intensive, and second, the imperial court may not have food and salary to pay, so don't think about it simply. ”

After Lu Xiangsheng finished speaking, his face was heavy and he let out a long sigh.

He still said it politely, the guards have long been unusable, although Hu Dawei relies on him to carry him, but after all, he has grown into the chief soldier of the border town, and it is not good to be harsh.

Moreover, the entire atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty is like this, and it has become a common practice to use empty salaries to support the pro-soldiers.

If Qin Haoming relied on the local guards to fight with Jin Shang, there would definitely be a lot of risks.
