Chapter 916: Hong Chengchou dies of illness
"Lord Wang, this is where Li Zicheng was the emperor back then. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info Song Xiance always used the five virtues to set Li Zicheng's Dashun as the king of Shuide, and the color of the clothes was still blue, but he never thought that this blue was only a few years old... When Li Zicheng retreated from Xi'an, he wanted to burn down these palaces, but before he could start clearing the troops, he killed them, and later changed them to a full city..."
Xi'an Mancheng was originally Li Zicheng Dashun Palace, Hu Yuxuan said all the way, and Wu Sangui watched all the way. This Xi'an City, he had been in Shunzhi for two years, and today he revisited his hometown, but he has changed from a Qing minister to a Ming minister, and he sighed that he was not enough for outsiders.
Guo Zhuangtu, Hu Guozhu, Wang Zhiding, Li Rubi, Gao Qilong, Ma Weixing, Ta Xince, Shi Wen, Zhao Wu, Zhao Liangdong, Tan Yi and other generals followed. Some of these people were Wu Sangui's Guanning army, some were Wu Sangui's Ming army that surrendered in Yunnan, and some were the newly surrendered generals of the Sichuanzhong and Shaanxi-Gansu Green Battalions.
Under Hu Yuxuan's explanation all the way, the generals of the Wu army toured the imperial city, and when they came out, they saw that there were many Manchurians outside who were driven by the Wu army and were doing their work, and from time to time there were whips and shouts.
Seeing this, Wu Sangui frowned slightly, and said to Guo Zhuangtu unhappily: "This king said that he should treat Manchu well, how can this matter still happen." β
"Lord Wang, the last general will find out."
Guo Zhuangtu secretly scolded in his heart for ignoring the prince's military orders, and took his personal guards to deal with the matter.
Hu Yuxuan also couldn't help shaking his head, these fools below, don't you know what the purpose of the prince is to treat the Manchurians well. But if you want the prince's army to arrive in the future, then everyone knows about Xi'an, can you still swear to resist to the death? The thief Xiucai Taiping army slaughtered the city everywhere to listen to the relief, but it was too naΓ―ve, and this move forced Manchurian to resist him to the end, and the gains outweighed the losses. Treat Xi'an Mancheng well is a university question, great wisdom.
Wu Sangui waved his hand to signal all the generals to return to the camp, leaving only a few descendants of the headquarters to stay, originally to ask about the matters of the battalions, but saw that the general Gao Dejie suddenly stepped forward and said: "Prince, there are no two days in the sky, there are no two kings in the people, now that Xi'an is down, the last general will ask the prince to be the emperor, and take us and the Qing Dynasty in the name of the right!" β
This remark surprised everyone, and Wu Sangui was also shocked when he heard it.
This Gao Dejie is from a military household in Liaodong, one of the generals under Wu Sangui, very brave in battle, all the generals are elite soldiers, and they are the most capable of fighting under Wu Sangui, and they are even more loyal. Gao Dejie's real name is Gao Dejie, and it is precisely because of his repeated victories and never lost that he was renamed "Dejie" by Wu Sangui himself.
"General Gao can't talk nonsense, you want the prince to be the emperor at this time, not to help the prince, but to harm the prince!" Hu Yuxuan almost angrily reprimanded Yu Gao Dejie, and replied that this guy was dizzy.
"Why not?" Gao Dejie was not convinced, and his neck was high.
Hu Yuxuan knew that Gao Dejie was a simple martial artist, so he patiently said to him: "The prince raised troops to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, and it is also clearly written in the inscription, we are going to support Yongli Zhu Youlang." And the reason why we went so smoothly from Yunnan, Guizhou to Sichuan to Shaanxi was precisely because of the advantage of this anti-Qing and Ming restoration banner. If the prince is called the emperor at this time, won't it make the people of Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Gansu provinces feel that they have been deceived, and make those soldiers and horses who respond to us feel deceived? In that case, how can the people of the northern provinces who care about the past respond to us, and no one responds to us, how can we achieve great things? β
Gao Dejie said: "Mr. Hu's argument is pedantic! Looking at the ancient and modern rebellions and those who take the world, which one is not taken by his own family? And who was born and died to fight for the world for others? Our prince's army is just an excuse to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, and we didn't have Xi'an, so we have to use this excuse. Now that we have occupied Xi'an, the ancient capital of the Han and Tang Dynasties, with five provinces in hand, and 200,000 elite soldiers, how can the prince not be called the emperor? According to me, it is reasonable for the prince to be called the emperor now, and it is to deceive the people of the world if he is not called the emperor! β
Hu Yuxuan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, so he had to say: "When we raised the army, we said that we were against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty and supported Zhu Youlang. Even if it is fake, it can only be maintained to keep the illusion alive in order to keep people's hearts and minds... Now, if you want to persuade the prince to call himself the emperor, it is clearly contrary to the words above the text, won't it make the people of the world chill? β
"What's this? As the saying goes, paper can't hold the fire, the prince raised troops in the name of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty to support the establishment of Yongli, which was originally nothing, and one day, everyone in the world will understand that this is not our original intention, rather than being exposed at that time, it is better to expose it yourself at this time! Not only can the people of the world not be deceived too deeply, but also can show honesty to the world, why not? β
"General Gao doesn't know that the world is difficult... Not afraid of the people's foolishness, only afraid of the people's knowledge. Since ancient times, if you want to achieve great things, you must deceive the people, and the deeper the deception, the greater the possibility of success. Therefore, even if everyone in the world knows that it is false for the prince to raise troops to restore his sight, as long as he does not say it, the people of the world will not have ideas because of this, and will still rely on the prince to respond. β
Gao Dejie was stunned: "Isn't that hanging a sheep's head and selling dog meat?" β
Hu Yuxuan smiled and didn't answer the words. Wu Sangui also laughed, he wouldn't be stupid to be the emperor now, if he really did this, then he Wu Sangui would be the enemy of the Ming and Qing dynasties. He waved his hand to signal Gao Dejie to stop talking nonsense, but at this time, his second son-in-law Hu Guozhu led a person over, saying that it was someone sent by Ying Xiong.
Before Wu Sangui raised his army, he had already sent people to Beijing to secretly inform his son Wu Yingxiong, asking him to flee Beijing as soon as possible. But after the army was raised, he couldn't receive Ying Xiong's reply for a long time, and he didn't know Ying Xiong's current situation, Wu Sangui was really worried. Tiger venom does not eat children, but the bear is his eldest son.
Wu Sangui, the person sent by Wu Yingxiong, knew that he was the old man from Liaodong who was waiting by Ying Xiong's side. When the man saw Wu Sangui, he first knelt down and kowtowed, and then began to undress.
Wu Sangui saw the strangeness, but knew that it must have a good intention, so he was silent. After the man untied his shirt, he presented his underwear and said respectfully: "Lord Wang, the letter of the prince is on it!" β
Wu Sangui took the shirt and looked at it, but saw that the shirt was clean and there was no handwriting, and he felt strange, and the man said: "Lord, you must bring a basin of water!" β
Wu Sangui nodded slightly after hearing this, and someone brought water at that moment. After the water arrived, the man took out a small bottle of medicinal juice and dripped a few drops into the water, and Wu Sangui put the shirt in his hand into the water. When the clothes were soaked in water and then fished out, I saw that dense handwriting appeared on the shirt.
Wu Sangui recognized his son's handwriting, and there were only a few short sentences on it, but it made Wu Sangui's brows soothe. It turned out that Wu Yingxiong told his father in a letter that he had secretly left Beijing with his two sons, but the Qing court sent people to arrest him and blocked the way south, so he had to go to a family surnamed Wang in Taiyuan, Shanxi. Wu Yingxiong also said that his wife Jianning did not leave Beijing with him.
The children and grandchildren were fine, Wu Sangui's heart suddenly lightened, but as for the daughter-in-law who had never met, he didn't care. If Ying Xiong and Jianning have a deep relationship, he will leave her alive after he breaks through Beijing.
After ordering someone to reward someone and ordering him to take him down to make arrangements, Wu Sangui couldn't help laughing. When he smiled, everyone was also in a good mood and laughed one after another.
"Let's go, go with the king to meet Subay."
Wu Sangui asked everyone to follow him to see Su Bai, he had been in the city for two days, Su Bai had never come to see him, he was busy with military affairs and didn't care to go up to see Su Bai, now that he has free time, he will meet this Xi'an general, if he can say that he can use it for his own use, it is also a big help, at least, it has a role that cannot be underestimated in dividing the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Wu Sangui and his entourage had not yet arrived at the besieged General's Mansion, but Guiyang had arrived quickly. Kuaima brought a piece of news that made Wu Sangui as a thunderbolt in the sky - Hong Chengchou died of illness. (To be continued.) )
