Chapter 144: The name is not right

Without Zhu Youlang, Wu Sangui didn't know how to fight under the banner of Mingming. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info If Zhu Youlang's crown prince Zhu Cixuan is here, Wu Sangui will not hesitate to support the crown prince to ascend the throne, but the problem is that the whereabouts of the prince are unknown. The news from Sichuan said that the crown prince Zhu Cixuan and the queen mother and the queen mother fell into the hands of the rebel general Ta Xince, and whether this news was true or not, Wu Sangui could not confirm it.

The emperor is gone, the crown prince is gone, Wu Sangui, who is calling for the anti-Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, is really a headache, and now he can't care about cursing the thief Xiucai who stabbed him in the back, he must immediately solve the problem of who will be the emperor.

Wu Sangui regretted it very much, and after listening to Hong Chengchou's opinion against the Qing Dynasty, he only regarded Zhu Youlang as a treasure, and did not pay attention to the rest of the Zhu Ming clan, so that as soon as Zhu Youlang died, there was no longer a clan in his hands that could be held out and called the emperor. In other words, Zhu Youlang's death has made Wu Sangui now a person who is not rightly spoken. At the same time, Zhu Youlang's death also made the morale of the Wu army fluctuate, which indirectly led to the defeat of Hu Guozhu, and made the strategic plan of the decisive battle in Kaifeng had to be abandoned. Fortunately, although Hu Guozhu was defeated, it also made Aobai pay a certain price, and Ma Bao's timely response made Aobai unable to take advantage of the situation to expand the results, and now he can only rest in the Kaifeng area and prepare to fight again.

In terms of troops, the Wu army still has an overwhelming advantage. In the more than a month since the start of the war, Wu Sangui has figured out the details of Aobai, and he has only 50,000 or 60,000 Manchurian and Mongolian Eight Banners that can be used in Aobai's hands, half of which are fake Manchu with banners carried by the Han army and the green battalion. However, Wu Sangui has nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses, and he, Wu Sangui, can withstand defeat after defeat, but he can't be defeated. Although Ao Bai arrived in Kaifeng after claiming the north. There will be reinforcements coming from Beijing, but this claim, let alone Wu Sangui, is not believed even within the Qing army. The heavy army group that the Qing Dynasty was able to assemble in the end was the one brought by the worship, and in addition, the Qing Dynasty had any heavy troops to adjust.

After Hu Guozhu was defeated, Fang Xianting said that he would "lure the enemy deep" and lure the Aobai troops to the mountainous and dangerous Guanluo area to be surrounded and annihilated. This plan is very good, the area around Luoyang is not suitable for the cavalry of the large corps to fight, and if Ao Bai really wants to go deeper, it is inevitable that he will tie his hands and feet. However, the news of Zhu Youlang's death made Fang Xianting's strategy of "luring the enemy" have to be put on hold.

The news of Zhu Youlang's death, Wu Sangui strictly ordered a blockade at the beginning, but it didn't take long for the whole army to know the news. Who was spreading the news of Zhu Youlang's death, and who wanted him to shake Wu Junjun's heart, Wu Sangui didn't have to think about it. Who else is there besides the thief Xiucai who stabbed him in the back?

The thief Xiucai is very thief, on the one hand, he suddenly used his troops to seize Guiyang in the name of rescuing Li Dingguo, and on the other hand, he blamed Wu Sangui for Zhu Youlang's death. At the same time, after the defeat of Hu Guozhu, the loyal battalion in southern Henan suddenly went north, forcing Ao Bai to have to divide and block, which seemed to help the Wu army, but if you look closely, it seems that two people are fighting, but another person suddenly helps this and that, so that neither of these two people can defeat anyone, until they are dragged to exhaustion. In the end, when both of them can't hold on, the person who has never used all his strength on the side is probably the real winner.

After Wu Sangui heard Hu Guozhu's report, he was eager to immediately cease war with Aobai, and then the two sides worked together to deal with the Taiping army and the loyal battalion. But in that case, wouldn't it be certain that Wu Sangui was the murderer who killed Zhu Youlang? Otherwise, how could he, Wu Sangui, suddenly negotiate peace with the Qing army after Zhu Youlang's death?

Wu Sangui was impatient, how to deal with the thief Xiucai was not a top priority. It was imperative that he resolve the confusion of his subordinates - the Son of Heaven was dead, and now they had to fight for which Son of Heaven they were fighting for.

It turned out that some of the generals from the Great Western Army and the Ming Army raised that since Emperor Yongli died, it was not Emperor Dingwu who changed to the southern capital. Some people also proposed to find another Zhu Ming clan to support it in order to continue to compete with the southern capital.

Fengding Emperor Wu, Wu Sangui would definitely not do this, that would mean that all his efforts would be in vain, not to mention that the thief Xiucai had already made a move on him. Although Yungui is no longer of much importance to the current Wu Sangui, it is his Wu Sangui's territory after all. However, many soldiers and horses in the Wu army were from the Yunnan-Guizhou Great Western Army, and their hometowns were occupied, which had a great impact on the sergeants from Yunnan-Guizhou of the Great Western Army. The consequences of this influence may not be apparent for the time being, after all, on the surface, the Wu army is still strong, owns several provinces, and has the possibility of restoring the old capital. But if the war continues to go badly, I am afraid that the consequences will be manifested little by little, until it leads to a catastrophe. How to solve this problem, Wu Sangui has already handed it over to the strategist Fang Xianting to do. Fang Xianting is always anxious, and he will arrange it, and Wu Sangui is at ease.

In addition, Zhu Ming's clan was regarded as the emperor, and Wu Sangui had considered it, but there was no clan in his hand that could be held out enough to call the world. can convince the people of the world that this new son of heaven must be the prince, and at present, the pro-vassal of the clan, the king of Tang is called the emperor in the southern capital under the support of the Taiping army, the king of Lu is in Jinxia, the king of Han is in the hands of the loyal camp, and the other princes are either dead in the hands of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, or they are killed by the Qing court.

However, now there must be a son of heaven, otherwise how can the military spirit be appeased, and how can the soldiers settle down?

Wu Sangui was irritable, he never expected that the Taiping Army's offensive would be so fast, and he captured Guiyang in just over a month, killing Zhu Youlang, and he didn't expect that Fulin would break the net with him. As soon as Hu Guozhu was defeated, the offensive of the Wu army in the past few months came to a halt in an instant, and with the news of the death of the Son of Heaven, the morale of both the front line and the rear was very low.

The situation has almost taken a turn for the worse, and it is urgent to reverse this passive situation. At the very least, Wu Sangui wants to make 200,000 soldiers "justifiable".

What to do, Wu Sangui couldn't make up his mind for a long time. He knew he couldn't help being indecisive, but he just couldn't make up his mind.

Annoyed, Wu Sangui felt that his confidence in defeating the Manchus seemed to be insufficient, and he woke up to the fact that he could not be bothered by this series of defeats, let alone lose confidence because of this. He had to decide on his next move immediately, and to do this, he summoned Hu Yuxuan and his eldest son, Wu Yingxiong, who had just returned from Shanxi.
