Chapter 116: The Three Kings Infighting (Part II)
"It's going to pull me into the water."
King Ziqi of Kuiguo, King Shangli of Baoguo, and He Jiuyi of Guangguo, all three of them were originally Sun Kewang's confidants and generals who stayed in Kunming and sat in Yunnan.
In the first stage of the internal strife between the three kings, Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu first sent He Jiuyi to Guangxi to guard Nanning Mansion, on the one hand, to prevent Chen Wen from encroaching on Guangxi, and on the other hand, to prevent Sun Kewang from committing internal crimes, and his people would become internal reactions. In the same way, although the other two were not easy to expel during this period, they were also deterred by Liu Wenxiu himself in Kunming. As a result, when Chen Wen defeated Sun Kewang and forced the Yongli court to execute him, the two kings fled from Kunming with their troops, and for the past two years, they have been separating the central and southern parts of Guangxi with the suspicious He Jiuyi.
The three claimed to be offering Guangxi and Chen Wen in exchange for Chen Wen's attack on Yunnan, but in fact, the only prefectures and counties they controlled were Nanning and Liuzhou. In contrast, the Yongli court always controlled the western part of Guangxi, and Chen Wen also occupied Guilin in the north and Wuzhou and Xunzhou in the east, but their territory was the smallest.
However, with these local snakes leading the way, the situation in Guangxi is bound to no longer exist, and with these elites of the Qin clan as pawns, it will be easier to set foot in Yunnan. From the perspective of interests, it is a good thing no matter how you look at it.
"They thought of me Chen Wen too simply."
With a sneer, Chen Wen sent someone to find Zhang Jun. Although Zhang Jun's rank is not high, his identity as Chen Wen's first personal soldier captain is also the most suitable.
"I have a big thing for you to do, but you need to risk your life."
"I am willing to die for the handsome!"
Zhang Jun replied very neatly, and Chen Wen didn't say anything more, and directly led him back to the inner house of the palace.
The inner courtyard of the Qi Wangfu is much larger than the inner courtyard of the Yue Wangfu of that year, the Chen family is increasing day by day, and the subordinates are also responding to the increase, and the original area is not enough, so when the Liangjiang Governor's Yamen was rebuilt into the Qi Palace, the officials in charge also specially expanded the area of land, even a few points larger than Chen Wen's plan.
Chen Wen took Zhang Jun into the inner courtyard and went straight to the library building, where Chen Wen collected books, and at the same time, Zhang Jun also knew that there was a secret room in the library building, where Chen Wen placed confidential objects.
When they arrived at the library building, the two walked in, and Chen Wen walked out with a brocade box not long after entering the secret room, and handed it to Zhang Jun casually.
Zhang Jun had seen this brocade box, and he even handed it to Chen Wen with his own hands. Although it is difficult to open it here to see if it is still the original thing, since Chen Wen took this thing out, it means that this table is about to be overturned by Chen Wen.
"Bring this thing to Kunming and send it to Jinshang."
………………
Chen Wen received the news as quickly as possible, but the distance was too far, and it took a lot of time on the way. In contrast, the forces near Yunnan have already known that the first to react are Wang Ziqi and the three of them in Guangxi - they are Sun Kewang's henchmen, and Li Dingguo is the most incompatible.
In Guangxi, Li Dingguo left Guizhou, which had not been around for more than a month, and Feng Shuangli, the king of Qingyang, who was in the east of Guizhou, and Bai Wenxuan, the king of Gongchang, who was in the west of Guizhou, also secretly found a stronghold in the middle of Guizhou to meet.
"His Royal Highness the King of Shu has been forced to death by the King of Jin, and he even dares to force the King of Shu to death, we are afraid that it will be sooner or later."
"This matter is not as rumored, His Royal Highness the King of Shu died of illness, and he was able to go to court before his death, and he was not under house arrest by His Royal Highness the King of Jin."
"Duke Yu, even if he didn't die under house arrest, the Son of Heaven had already affirmed the suggestion of His Royal Highness the King of Shu and was ready to drive Sichuan, but it wasn't the King of Jin who forced him to do it in a hurry. If this were not the case, why would His Royal Highness the King of Shu be seriously ill and difficult to treat? ”
Although Bai Wenxuan was once Sun Kewang's confidant, he had a good relationship with Li Dingguo, and although he was not spared when Li Dingguo divided the "Qin soldiers" and "Jin soldiers", he was not spared, but he was not too difficult in terms of military supplies. However, Feng Shuangli is not only Sun Kewang's ironcore, Li and Liu are also more harmonious with the latter, plus they have had a gap with Li Dingguo over the years, and even had a military encounter, and now they have been excluded, and they have long been dissatisfied with His Royal Highness the King of Jin.
However, Bai Wenxuan also knew that Feng Shuangli was right, although Liu Wenxiu's death was not done by Li Dingguo himself, but there was no cure for heart disease, and the root cause of this heart disease was planted by Li Dingguo, so Li Dingguo must bear a responsibility.
"The four princes who were both under the command of the eldest king back then, and now they are the princes of the same emperor, and His Royal Highness the King of Shu is less than his King Jin. That guy has no room for people, and it's just perverse on weekdays, and now he even dares to do this with His Royal Highness the King of Shu, you and I are like this, I'm afraid it's only a matter of time. It's not good to say, when he eases up and cleans up Wang Ziqi and Wang Shangli, it will be our turn! ”
"This ......"
Feng Shuangli said this, and stared at Bai Wenxuan with a pair of eyes, the latter was not worried about his situation under Li Dingguo, but when Feng Shuangli said this, he couldn't help but feel apprehensive in his heart.
The four princes of Daxi, Ai Nengqi died early, Sun Kewang was forced to death by Chen Wen, and now Liu Wenxiu is also depressed, but Li Dingguo, the only surviving fruit, is not supported by the generals of Xiying at all, but everyone is afraid that Liu Wenxiu and even Sun Kewang will end up like that. In the final analysis, Li Dingguo is good at military affairs, neglects politics, and has many things that are not conducive to unity, and it is inevitable that this is the case now.
There was silence in the room for a long time, and all that could be heard was the heavy breathing of the two county kings. Since Feng Shuangli made an appointment with Bai Wenxuan to come, he wanted to get a result, but at this moment Bai Wenxuan was still hesitant, and gradually, Feng Shuangli, who had already made up his mind, also began to be impatient, and Bai Wenxuan could also feel this anxiety and worry.
"What are you going to do?"
When the words came out, Bai Wenxuan hurriedly added: "Don't worry, even if I can't agree, I will never say it." If you violate this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed! ”
"You don't have to be like this, Duke Yu, I invite you over, I can trust you, how do I treat my brother with Feng Shuang, you should know that this is humiliating me."
As soon as these words came out, Bai Wenxuan's face was ashamed, but Feng Shuangli did not leave because of displeasure, but said to Bai Wenxuan directly: "This court is counting on the King of Jin to act like this, and it is a matter of time before the country dies, and I, Feng Shuangli, don't want to sit still." ”
"Is it possible that you still plan to raise an army and make a mistake?"
"I'm not crazy yet!"
In the face of Bai Wenxuan's questioning, Feng Shuangli took the lead and said, and then suppressed his anger and said: "I know, in terms of using soldiers, I don't deserve to lift shoes for Li Dingguo, and I haven't even thought about replacing them, I don't have the ability or ambition." However, if this continues, Li Dingguo will attack us sooner or later, and I will never let him succeed. ”
Hearing this, Bai Wenxuan was shocked at first even if he understood Feng Shuangli's plan, and then asked sharply: "Don't you want to go to King Qi, don't forget, His Royal Highness the King of Qin was forced to death by him, can he let you go, the hardcore of the Qin Palace?" ”
"Duke Yu, you are wrong, the King of Qi forced the court to execute the King of Qin, but do you think that if His Royal Highness the King of Qin was defeated by the King of Jin, the King of Jin would not kill him? In that defeat back then, they defeated us in a dignified manner, and they won more with less, and there was nothing unconvinced. What's more, King Qi is benevolent, at least I haven't heard of King Qi forcing his brother to death, at most he is taking those dog gentry to knife, I sincerely defect to him, if he can't even let me go, there will be no current pattern. Compared with King Jin, I am more optimistic about His Royal Highness King Qi. ”
Feng Shuangli was like this, and Bai Wenxuan fell into silence again. In the room, Bai Wenxuan's celestial and human beings were fighting, but Feng Shuangli seemed to pour out everything in his heart, but he was much more relaxed, just sitting there, continuing to wait for Bai Wenxuan's answer.
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin treats me well, if it hurts the life of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, don't expect me to agree."
"I just want to invite His Royal Highness King Qi to enter Yunnan and preside over the overall situation, not to want King Jin's life. As long as he is willing to surrender his military power, he will not threaten us and others. ”
After Bai Wenxuan heard this answer, he also smiled bitterly. The combat effectiveness of the Ming Army in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Zhejiang, he can't resist it, and now that he has Feng Shuangli, an inner ghost, it is even more difficult to think about it.
"Okay, when the time comes, I will try my best to persuade His Royal Highness King Jin."
………………
The southwest land, Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi provinces, the southwest Ming army is basically from the Xiying line, now the Xiying factions are numerous, and the disintegration is imminent, everyone is looking for a place to survive, but in Sichuan, the Kuidong generals who were originally squeezed out by the Xiying collective are now sitting firmly in Diaoyutai and laughing at the infighting in Xiying.
The generals of Kuidong are mainly divided into two parts in terms of heels and factions, one part is the former Chuang army, and the other part is the former Sichuan army. Now in Sichuan Province, it is also obvious that the three Tans and Liu and Yang Ershuai in western Sichuan are the only surviving achievements of the Ming army in Sichuan, while those feudal towns in eastern Sichuan are basically the remnants of the invasion army, and they have always been regarded as thieves by the Ming court.
In the western part of Sichuan, since the news of Liu Wenxiu's death came, the Sichuan Ming army ran to the warehouses of the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang to buy firecrackers.
The last one to get such treatment was still Dorgon, and even Sun Kewang didn't reach such a point. In the final analysis, Xiying's entry into Sichuan led to chaos in Sichuan, and the locals in Sichuan hated them so much. Liu Wenxiu, as the commander in charge of the Sichuan expedition since the rise of Xiying, also slaughtered and annexed the local Ming army in Sichuan, and many Sichuan Ming troops who were still actively resisting the Qing would rather surrender to the Qing than cooperate with Liu Wenxiu, which can be seen.
The blood feud between Xiying and the Sichuan people is not something that can be clearly explained in one or two sentences. In today's Sichuan, the Sichuan army can get along with the Chuang army, and it is all due to the foil of the rogue colleague in Xiying, and even if the Chuang army in eastern Sichuan arrives on the ground in western Sichuan, he does not feel any strange when he sees this scene, and he still celebrates with them.
This is the case in western Sichuan, the Chongqing Mansion in eastern Sichuan, and Liu Tichun's Guogong Mansion are now the former military towns in eastern Sichuan. At this meeting, it is nothing more than that the distance between Yuan Zongdi in the easternmost and Li Laiheng in the westernmost part is quite moderate, and it is not that he is afraid of letting that Mao Dengshou Mao Inspector know.
The two kings of Xiying are infighting, and Kui Dongzhong will get the news, which is also a celebration of the crown. Not to mention the contradictions between Dashun and Daxi in those years, let's just say that since the rise of Xiying, the exclusion and hostility they have received should make these people feel happy. As for Liu Wenxiu's posthumous appearance before his death, if Wen'anzhi was still there, they might still pinch their noses and try to cooperate with Xiying, but now that Wen'anzhi has been deposed and returned to his hometown, they naturally regard it as a joke.
"I invited you here today for just one thing, and now that the chaos in Xiying is imminent, we should also have a strategy."
"What else, look at the excitement."
"That is, learn from those Sichuan troops, watch the western thieves cut each other, kill one less and one less, what else, is it possible that we are still nosy, and we can't mediate in the past?"
At this moment, in the thirteenth year of Yongli, it is no longer the Qing army's oppression, Li Dingguo faced the Xiying departments to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, and Yongli chose to set up an ambush in Mopan Mountain and fight to the death with the Qing army under the desperate situation of abandoning the country's southern hunting.
The great shadow of the Manchu Qing has now been dispelled by Chen Wen, at least in the south. Especially after Wu Sangui anyway, there was no strong enemy around Sichuan, there was no huge pressure to destroy the country and exterminate the species, there was no main contradiction, and the secondary contradiction between the Chuang army and the Xiying camp rose to the main contradiction, which is understandable.
"Mediation, who has that idle time. It's just that I heard Ma Jinzhong say that now all the departments in Xiying are in tandem in all directions, preparing to lead the king's army into Yunnan, and I'm afraid it's almost time to stand in line. ”
As soon as Liu Tichun said this, everyone present was stunned, and then fell into silence. In general, the Lianming resistance to the Qing Dynasty in Xiying, the various departments of the camp also chose to join forces with the Ming Dynasty of the same clan to fight against the Manchu alien race after the death of the leader, but it was not as strong as the Xiying, when they began to serve the Nanming, the strength of the Nanming was still very strong, although they were more capable of fighting, but they were never less excluded, and now, the mind is much more complicated.
Seeing that the scene fell silent, Liu Tichun, as the host, had no choice but to speak: "King Qi's intentions, we should see it when we are in Wuchang, our Dashun Son of Heaven is no longer there, whether to follow the Zhu family or the Chen family in the future, we had better make a decision as soon as possible." ”
Liu Tichun made his words clear, and Hao Yongzhong, who was usually stunned, stood up and shouted: "Do you still need to say this? In the eyes of the Zhu family, we are thieves who disturb the world, Chongzhen Lao'er hanged himself, and it was also counted on our heads, isn't it enough to be excluded by them over the years, and we have to wait for the Zhu family to come to the world, and when the time comes, pull us under the crooked neck tree and chop us before you regret it? ”
Hao Yongzhong felt that He Tengjiao was not thin on him, so he obeyed everything, and even sent troops to attack Chen Youlong, who raised troops against the Qing Dynasty, but in the end, the Yongli court carried the black pot on his back.
Speaking of distrust of the Ming Court, Hao Yongzhong was the first to react. Seeing this, everyone thought about it, but they felt that this was the most reasonable sentence that this bastard had said in his life, and echoed it one after another.
"Uncles, we followed King Chuang to survive, and we were not persecuted by those corrupt officials and corrupt officials. Fighting Tartars, we are Han Chinese, and I, Li Laiheng, have nothing to say, but if I were asked to choose one of the two from the Zhu family and the Chen family, I would never choose the Zhu family! ”
………………
In Guangxi, Guizhou, and Sichuan, the Qin Domain, the Shu Domain, the Sichuan Army, and the Chuang Army were all active, and the Yongli Imperial Court in Kunming was not ignorant of this.
The Ming army in the southwest occupies the territory of four provinces, and the Ming army of each system is combined, even if you count the soldiers, there are nearly 200,000 troops. Compared with the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Ming armies, it seems that they are just a small man, but if they can really work together, they are also a very strong force, especially when they have a world-famous general like Li Dingguo.
However, now that all parts are falling apart, Yongli listens to the news from Li Dingguo, courtiers and even Jinyiwei in the palace every day, and his heart is getting colder and colder, and even the early dynasty is becoming more and more thoughtless.
"Your Majesty, is there really no way?"
"There's nothing to be done anymore, it's just a matter of one day earlier and one day late."
The southwest Ming army has moved the mind of changing the court, Yongli can neither carry Li Dingguo out to satisfy them, let alone let Li Dingguo wave his army everywhere to crusade against these potential rebels and thieves, the fall of the Southern Ming court has been a certainty, no matter how strong the famous general can not change, because his enemy is no longer the Manchu Qing who can be countered by the defense of Yixia, but Chen Wen, who is also a Han and led the great counterattack against the Manchu Qing single-handedly!
"The concubine has an idea, I don't know if I should talk about it or not."
"Queen, please speak up."
"The concubines are counted, Xuan'er is not young, and the eldest daughter of His Royal Highness King Qi is now four or five years old, if the two families marry, they may be able to protect the royal family."
The queen's plan is to canonize Chen Wen's daughter Chen Xinruo as the crown princess. In this way, the Zhu family and the Chen family are in-laws, even if they can't prevent Chen Wen from changing the dynasty, at least the Zhu family can still be preserved, especially when he hears that Chen Wen loves his daughter very much, he will not push his daughter into the fire pit.
Thinking about it like this, but it was also reasonable, but after hearing this, Yongli shook his head, and then said to the queen: "I heard that the King of Qi is afraid of the inside, just like Emperor Wen of Sui, I am afraid that even if he makes his daughter widowed for a lifetime, he will not let our family go." ”
It's not that the queen hasn't heard such an allusion, but she really thought of it, and thought that it was already a future with a glimmer of life, but it dimmed again.
The husband and wife were speechless and tears were inevitable, but this time, it was not long before the eunuch in charge interrupted the embrace of the most noble man and woman in the world and cried.
"Emperor, the envoy of His Royal Highness King Qi has already arrived outside the city."
