Chapter 198: Sky Leak
The previous text made a clerical error, and Sun Kewang was expected to be canonized as the king of Qin for the Southern Ming Dynasty.
Asking for a monthly ticket, with the perseverance of always insisting on completing the work, so that you can vote for a little monthly ticket, it is not difficult for a strong man.

Zhou Shixiang pointed out that Li Dingguo went straight to Guizhou to abandon the two Guangxi to resist the Qing Dynasty, so that Qi Hao could no longer remain silent, and he was very excited and shouted: "What Qianhu said, I dare not agree with it!" ”
"Oh?" Zhou Shixiang was not unhappy with Qi Hao's fierce reaction, but asked, "Why did Qi Zongqi say this?" ”
Qi Hao gasped and said in a muffled voice: "Although I, Qi Hao, followed the Emperor Daxi in my early years, but since the fifth year of Yongli Lianming to resist the Qing Dynasty, I have been dedicated to the Ming courtiers. If today's son is subject to the lord of the country, although I also respect the lord of the country, but he is also dissatisfied with his act of holding the Son of Heaven hostage, but the lord of the country insists on going his own way, we can't stop it, but Xifu is strongly opposed, and he does not hesitate to turn against the lord of the country. If the lord of the country really persecuted the Son of Heaven to concede, is it possible for the Ming Dynasty to recover? Therefore, what Qianhu said about the abandonment of the two Guangxi anti-Qing righteous people is really untrue, you must know that the skin does not exist, and Mao will be attached! ”
"A good skin without hair will be attached! Qi Zongqi woke me up with a word, indeed, Xifu's move is a last resort, if the Son of Heaven really does not exist, how long can I wait. ”
Although he knew that Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo would definitely have infighting, and also knew that Li Dingguo was really forced to lead the army straight to Anlong, but subconsciously Zhou Shixiang regarded the survival of the Taiping Army above all else, in his opinion, if Li Dingguo did not abandon the two Guangzhous and went to Guizhou, but took Gaozhou as a base to prepare for the third eastward march at any time, then under the favorable situation that the Taiping Army occupied Xinhui and opened the southern gate to Guangzhou, Li Dingguo took advantage of the situation to advance eastward again and would definitely be able to defeat the Qing army to occupy Guangzhou, and quickly control the whole province of Guangdong. It can also use Guangdong as a base for the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains. The Taiping Army can also rely on the great merit of occupying Xinhui and sticking to Xinhui to gain the attention of Li Dingguo and even the Yongli Imperial Court, and obtain development opportunities.
However, Li Dingguo abandoned Liangguang for the sake of Yongli Tianzi, which made the Taiping army's insistence on Xinhui meaningless, and even caused the Taiping army to be defeated in Xinhui. This naturally made Zhou Shixiang unwilling, so it was inevitable that he would have some complaints in his heart. But now that I think about it, Li Dingguo really ignored Yongli and let Sun Kewang force Yongli Chan to give way to him, and then the Ming Dynasty really no longer exists. Sun Kewang, who was born in the Great Western Army, also did not have the support of Zhang Mingzhen and Zhang Huangyan, who were the Zheng monks of Xiamen who insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty along the coast of Zhejiang and Fujian. It is even more impossible to get the support of the Restoration forces in those areas ruled by the Qing army, and the Restoration Forces in various places that were nominally united under the banner of Yongli will inevitably split. Compared with this consequence, whether the Taiping army, which had only more than 2,000 people, was defeated or not is obviously not worth mentioning.
Although the Taiping Army was pulled up by Zhou Shixiang single-handedly and built with all his efforts, it was too weak and too small, and it couldn't even be a bargaining chip under this big pattern of competition between the Ming and Qing dynasties. Compared with the death of the Ming Dynasty, abandoning or even sacrificing part of the anti-Qing forces is helpless in Li Dingguo's view, but it is also the best choice.
It must be uncomfortable to be thrown away as an outcast. Qi Hao also deeply understood this, Li Dingguo's army was defeated and Xinhui retreated in a hurry that day, and he who was stationed in Jiangmen was not thrown away as an outcast. But he never complained about Li Dingguo because of this, he followed the eight kings in Fengyang for nine years, and sold his life for twenty years with his head, and the people who crawled over the corpse mountain and the sea of blood naturally understood the gains and losses, and when the way back to the west had been cut off by the Qing army, how could he complain that Li Dingguo abandoned him.
This is already the case, and it is imperative not to blame him or you. It is to find a way out for the Taiping army, at least to come up with a way to deal with it, no matter what kind of decision it is, it can always reassure the generals who have fallen into panic. This bone eye is not a god, but a decision!
Zhou Shixiang cheered up. He ordered the map he had made to be spread out on the table, and all the generals gathered around him.
"I know that everyone is worried now, but I have never relied on others since the beginning of the Taiping Army, and this time whether it is life or death, it is always our brothers' own business. It is better to ask for others than for yourself, since there are no reinforcements coming, and the situation is also killing our army, it is better to survive in death. It's really dead, and there's nothing to say, but before you die, you always want a. Force more clear dog pads! ”
"I am willing to listen to the orders of a thousand households!" The generals cheered up.
Zhou Shixiang continued while drawing on the map: "From the perspective of the great situation of the enemy and us, the abandonment of the two Guangxi by the king of Anxi has put my Ming in a situation of taking care of one thing and losing the other, first of all, the contact between the imperial court and our soldiers and horses who are still in Guangdong to resist the Qing Dynasty has been cut off, and the passage of the Zheng clan on the coast of Fujian and Zhejiang to enter Guangdong by sea cannot be used, forming a passive pattern in which the east and west do not respond well and fight separately. Second, the change of hands in Guangdong and Guangxi will create a more favorable situation for the Qing army to attack Guizhou and Yunnan.
In addition, there will be a loser after the war between Anxi and Sun Kewang, who is this loser, I don't dare to make a decision, but I think that most of the time Sun Kewang is much defeated, the so-called more help for the righteous, less help for the unjust, Sun Kewang is ambitious to persecute the Son of Heaven, and jealous of Anxi's two famous kings, this is a well-known thing in the world, so people and this Sun Kewang do not take advantage. In this piece of time, there is a Qing army looking at each other outside, and there are comrades killing each other inside, and Sun Kewang has a lot of time. Looking at the geographical advantages, Sun Kewang's troops are mostly concentrated in the Hunan battlefield, if he rashly withdraws troops back to block Anxi, firstly, he will weaken the anti-Qing forces in the Hunan battlefield, and secondly, he will also lose the opportunity to fall into a passive response, not to mention the geographical advantages. If Sun Kewang fails, he can't help but worry that the Qing army will move south on the Hunan battlefield. ”
If I am still happy, at this time I will inevitably take advantage of the transfer of the main force of Anxi and the weak strength of the Ming army in Guangxi, on the one hand, I will write to the court to request the Qing army on the Hunan battlefield to go south, and at the same time point the main force of the Qing army in Guangdong to advance to Guangxi at full speed, even if Anxi succeeds, snatch the Son of Heaven out of Sun Kewang's hands, and defeat Sun Kewang, but the two Guangzhous are lost, and only how can he resist the Qing army tigers and wolves coming from all sides in Yunnan and Guizhou. I can't say that Da Ming will die here. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Shixiang sighed, he had analyzed the history he knew to the generals as much as possible, and the rest was not something he could know, nor could he influence. Because of this, it also stimulated his gambling nature, his mother, and give up the opportunity to fight him once in this second life, not for himself, not for the common people, not for the Ming Dynasty, only for the dead parents, wives and children!
"But all this hasn't happened yet, just because our Taiping army is still in Guangdong, and it is still under the nose of the Qing army! The new meeting will not be broken for a day, and Shang Kexi will not want to free up his hands to go westward with all his might! As long as he can't go west with all his might, we can make up for it! ”
After speaking, Zhou Shixiang smashed his fist on the table, only to shake the tea bowl on it. (To be continued.) )
