Luo Yang laughed: "Mr. Luo, we also admire your talent, but it's a pity that you are actually mixed with the Manchu Tatars, and you are still loyal!" Otherwise, you surrender to us, and the Great Han Heavenly Kingdom will definitely not humiliate you. ”

Luo Bingzhang sneered: "Betrayed the Qing Dynasty and took refuge in you? Unless, unless you can put the heads of Hu Zhong and the Admiral on them again, let him come back to life! ”

The original intention was just to express his determination not to surrender, but unexpectedly, Luo Yang was surprised: "Mr. Luo is what he says, right?" ”

"A gentleman's word!"

Zhang Suimou looked at Luo Yang and shook his head secretly, and said in his heart, it is really whimsical to persuade Luo Bingzhang to surrender.

Luo Yang recruited his own soldiers, muttered a few words, and the two soldiers hurriedly went, after that, Luo Yang and Luo Bingzhang, Zhang Suimou and other three people continued to talk, Luo Yang asked Luo Bingzhang about the situation in the northwest region, at this point, Luo Bingzhang did not have a hostile attitude, he told many of the situations he knew, and talked about the slaughter of the barbarian people of the Han nationality by the Hui people, and he was heartbroken.

"It is said that no less than three or five million Han people were slaughtered in Shaanxi Province! Many places are thousands of miles away, and many towns have been slaughtered and turned into uninhabited ruins! ”

Luo Yang sighed with emotion: "In this case, why didn't Governor Luo send the elite of the Hunan army and the Sichuan army to the northwest to fight the rebellion?" On the contrary, they have been entangled with the Taiping army in the south? ”

"Hmph, if it weren't for your long-haired army making trouble behind your back, how could there be a rebellion against the Hui army? They were all instigated by the remnants of your Long-haired Army, Lai Wenguang and others! ”

"Nonsense, our Taiping Army only opposes the Qing Dynasty and does not vendetta, do we want the Han people to be killed?"

"The rebellion in the northwest is the residual poison of long hair!" Luo Bingzhang gritted his teeth.

When he met such a stubborn old guy, Luo Yang almost wanted to slap him again and reward him a few times.

However, when it came to the Northwest crisis, several people had a common language that they all agreed that it was a barbaric genocide, a real rebellion, and that it had to be severely suppressed.

"If we go north to crusade against the rebellion, can you support this king?" Luo Yang asked again.

"Well, for your sake." Luo Bingzhang finally breathed a sigh of relief: "This governor also wants to help you, as long as you really go north to attack the rebels, unfortunately, the head of my subordinate general Hu Tidu will not be able to return to his neck!" ”

Luo Bingzhang's hatred is difficult to resolve, many of his generals, especially a few of his cronies, were killed or beheaded by Luo Yangjun, doesn't he hate it?

As he was talking, someone outside reported that Luo Yang allowed outsiders to enter, and soon, a few people came in.

"Hu Zhonghe?" Luo Bingzhang stood up with a sigh of shock, shocked in disbelief.

"Handsome?" Hu Zhonghe fell to his knees and cried loudly.

"You're not dead?" Luo Bingzhang grabbed Hu Zhonghe's shoulder and shook it violently.

"No, they're good at it!" Hu Zhonghe said gratefully.

It turned out that the two people who were killed under the city of Chengdu that day were neither Hu Zhonghe, the general of the Hunan army, nor Wang Yingyuan, the Tusi of the Yi nationality, but two Taiping troops who violated military discipline and had a bad nature, which were originally intended to intimidate the Qing army, but caused a deep misunderstanding.

"Luo Dashuai!" Wang Yingyuan, the Tusi of the Yi nationality, also came in, and as soon as he came in, he saw Hu Zhonghe calling Dashuai, and knew that it was the highest military and political governor in Sichuan, so he hurriedly kowtowed.

The conversation of the three of them was not affected in any way, and while speaking, Hu Zhonghe and Wang Yingyuan were full of gratitude for Luoyang's Dahan Tian**'s hospitality, "Marshal, the long-haired army is indeed benevolent and righteous!" It's a hundred times better than we imagined! ”

"This?" Luo Bingzhang looked at Luo Yang and Zhang Suimou with a complicated expression.

"Lord Luo, you won't break your word, right?" Luo Yang asked with a smile.

"This?" Luo Bingzhang regretted that he beat his chest with his fist: "How can I surrender to the rebels?" How can I, Luo, be unfaithful and unjust? ”

Seeing that the time was ripe, Luo Yang ordered the soldiers to move the stools and sit for King Hu and the others: "Everyone, we are all enemies on the battlefield, and we will want to annihilate the opponent and then hurry up, and this king does not ask you to completely surrender to this king and the Han Heavenly Kingdom, I just want to cooperate with you, what do you think?" ”

"Cooperation?"

"Well, cooperation, you are still the Qing army, this king's army is still the army of the Han Heavenly Kingdom, referred to as the Han army, we cooperate, and go to Shaanxi and Gansu provinces together, sweep away the rebellion, save the Han compatriots there and other compatriots of all ethnic groups, eliminate the culprits of genocide, stabilize and unite the place, and then, we will part ways and see you on the battlefield!" Luo Yang said.

Such a decision was natural for Luo Yang, who hated the decadent reaction of the Manchu elite, was dissatisfied with many aspects of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom by Hong Xiuquan, and hated the genocidal policies that had taken place on the land of China.

"Mass murder is the most barbaric and hateful, it is a criminal act of exterminating humanity, it cannot be tolerated by one person, and we Chinese people must rise up and attack it!"

Zhang Suimou said loudly: "Governor Luo Bingzhang, Governor Hu Zhonghe, Wang Yingyuan Tusi, contemptible people tell you, I, the Rui King of the Han Heavenly Kingdom, am not afraid of you, nor are I afraid of your Manchu army, on the contrary, our Rui King thinks that within a year or two, we can sweep the Manchu Qing and unify China!" It's just that I pity your talent and prestige, and because of the friendship of the Han compatriots, I refuse to abandon it, so I have always wanted to persuade you, think about it, our Han Heavenly Kingdom, will not kill you, nor let you surrender, but just unite to jointly destroy the rebellion, where else in the world is this kind of lenient condition? ”

The words were impassioned and shocking.

"This, King Rui! Prime Minister, you are right, Governor Locke, think about it too, you see? Hu Zhonghe said with palpitations: "Dashuai, the military power of King Rui, I Hu has been taught, overnight, 5,000 officers and soldiers on my Songlin River defense line were killed in pieces, almost all wiped out, who would have thought, there are only more than 300 sneak attackers, Luo Dashuai, the Rui King of the Han Heavenly Kingdom is really a rare general in the ages." ”

Wang Yingyuan also persuaded.

Luo Bingzhang hesitated for a while, and asked puzzledly: "Since you are extremely elite in the Han Dynasty, why don't you go north directly?" Or destroy my Qing Dynasty? Why do you want to work with us? ”

Luo Yang said: "At present, the Chengdu area of Sichuan, although it is under the control of my Han Heavenly Kingdom, there are more counties around it, but it is occupied by your Manchu army, and also, going north to Shaanxi and Gansu, and passing through many Qing areas, it is inevitable to fight and tear apart, which will cause the fratricidal and attrition of our Chinese national defense strength, which is not what this king wants to see." This king estimates that if you are not willing to cooperate, we can only use force to use troops against all parts of Sichuan, which may cause more than 100,000 casualties. ”

The room was surprisingly quiet, and Hu Zhonghe, Wang Yingyuan, etc., all nodded deeply.

"This king thinks that we will cooperate for the time being, cease fighting everywhere, and unite against the rebel army! The Han nationality must not be allowed to kill each other because of the sowing of discord by the Manchu elites, nor can other ethnic minorities be allowed to do whatever they want and kill each other. ”

Luo Bingzhang pondered for a long time, and suddenly sighed: "The old man will never betray the Qing Dynasty, but why not do things that are beneficial to the Qing Dynasty?" ”
