Sichuan Province had both Qing and Ming armies. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

If Wu Sangui returned to the Ming anyway, the Ming army in Sichuan Province would inevitably respond to him, that is, if they did not want to obey Wu Sangui's orders, they would also obey the emperor's orders in his hands. And Gao Minzhan, the governor of Sichuan Province, was not Wu Sangui's opponent at all, and even many of his subordinates were left to him by Wu Sangui, and Wu Sangui was even confident that he could persuade the Qing army in Sichuan Province to surrender with a letter and obtain the whole Sichuan completely.

Li Guoying, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, has some skills, but it is a pity that before Li Guoying took office, Wu Sangui operated in Baoning and Hanzhong for several years. As soon as Hanzhong was opened, Shaanxi Province was opened, and Wu Jun waved his army to Xi'an, and he could look at the capital like Li Zicheng back then.

If at the beginning, Wu Sangui didn't know much about the Manchurians, but after working for the Manchu Qing Dynasty for more than ten years, what could he hide from him. Wu Sangui now has an advantage, if he does it properly, perhaps, he is the last straw that crushes the Manchus.

Militarily, Wu Sangui is the Guan Ning Army plus the newly surrendered Ming Army, with nearly 150,000 soldiers and horses, most of which are long-term soldiers, and there is no shortage of generals under him. Xia Guoxiang, Guo Zhuangtu, and Hu Guozhu, all of whom were introduced at random, were much stronger than the Manchurian princes in the Qing court. In terms of staff, Hu Shouliang and Fang Xianting, which of them is not better than Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance under Li Chuang?

There are generals and soldiers, and the strategic situation is full of advantages.

Wu Sangui's department was originally one of the heavy army groups that the Qing court could come up with, and it can be said that the commander of the Qing army in the southwest was a doni in name, but it was Wu Sangui who actually commanded it. Doni is young, but the yellow-haired child, the other Pingjun Wang Luo Keduo is also a Manchurian third-generation, only mediocre, Wu Sangui really wants to make trouble, these two yellow-haired children can't stop him. And the Yunnan-Guizhou-Qing army has more than 300,000 in name, but the Manchurian and Mongolian soldiers are only more than 20,000, and with ten times the number of troops to fight the 20,000 Manchu and Mongolian soldiers who have no way to retreat, Wu Sangui hesitates, and the odds of victory are ten out of ten. The Manchu and Mongolian soldiers are about to be defeated, and where will the remaining green battalion soldiers have the courage to be martyred for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, most of them are gathered under the command of King Pingxi and strive to be the heroes of the restoration of the Ming Dynasty. What's more, now that Doni is sick again, and the 20,000 Manchurian soldiers have no one to command, it is even more worrying.

Hong Chengchou's strategy made Wu Sangui even more tempted, that is, the Shunzhi army had been firmly pinned down by the Taiping army in Su Province, Shaanxi and Gansu, the Central Plains and Northern Zhili, with no soldiers to defend, and the emptiness was abnormal. As long as he has the courage to do so, the chance of success is at least sixty percent.

After thinking about it for a long time, Wu Sangui said: "Ying Xiong is still in the capital." ”

Hong Chengchou glanced at him and said lightly: "You must plan early." ”

Wu Sangui nodded and said, "I will immediately send someone to welcome Zhu Youlang back." ”

Hong Chengchou advised: "Only Zhu Youlang is needed, but the rest of the people in Burma are not suitable to stay." ”

"What do you mean, teacher?"

"You let the Burmese do it, and find an excuse to execute all the officials of the Yongli court, otherwise, it will be more troublesome." After Hong Chengchou finished speaking, he paused, and then said: "Mu Tianbo must be removed, but Ma Jixiang can stay." This person flattered Sun Kewang back then, and later attached Li Dingguo, but he was really a grass on the wall, not as good as Mu Tianbo. If you really want to support Zhu Youlang in the future, the court will always have an ornament, and it would be better to use that Ma Jixiang. ”

Wu Sangui responded, this matter does not need to be explained by Hong Chengchou, he will definitely do it. Regardless of whether he Wu Sangui really wants to support the Ming room or is false, he always doesn't want to be full of people in the court who can't help him in the future, and he will be blamed by the world at that time, so it is better to solve the trouble at the beginning.

Hong Chengchou saw that Wu Sangui promised to be happy, and nodded slightly, this student may not be as good as the thief Xiucai in other aspects, but this mind is higher than that of the thief Xiucai. It is reported that the Tang Dynasty regime in Guangzhou used a lot of Yongli officials, but as a result, these people and the thief Xiucai fought for power and profit, and made the matter of storming the palace gate, although it was suppressed by the thief Xiucai, but his reputation became very bad, and the gains outweighed the losses.

Sometimes, Hong Chengchou can't help but think, how could the thief Xiucai be stupid and find someone to drag him back, and if he was himself, he would not have such trouble. Thinking that he was a thief in the Central Plains back then, he was decisive in killing, and there was no kindness of a woman. It is to pacify Jiangnan for the Qing court, and for those who resist the Qing Dynasty and officials, they also say that they will kill them, and they will never pay attention to any notoriety. In this history book, there are always winners and losers. Successful people will never be blamed.

"Since Zhu Youlang is welcome, isn't it that the students still have to join forces with Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan?"

Wu Sangui felt that this matter was a little tricky, and joining forces with Li and Bai had the benefits, but it seemed that the disadvantages were greater.

Hong Chengchou said that Bai Wenxuan can be kept, but Li Dingguo must be removed, because this person is the king of Jin canonized by Zhu Youlang, and he has a great influence in the Great Western Army, if this person is not removed, it will be greatly disadvantageous to Wu Sangui.

"You first secretly take back Zhu Youlang, and send elite soldiers to encircle and suppress Li Dingguo, even if you can't get rid of him, you can't let him get in touch with Zhu Youlang, let alone let him know about Nanjing."

"Students understand."

Wu Sangui talked about another worrying thing, but in case the Shunzhi army was really defeated, and the thief Xiu let the Tang King go to Nanjing to ascend the throne, then Zhu Youlang, the emperor, would really be of little use.

"You must let Guangzhou know that Zhu Youlang is back." Hong Chengchou groaned slightly, and replied: "My son has a number of letters to my family, but I have never replied to him. When you take Zhu Youlang back, I will send him a letter home. ”

"Do you need the students to send someone to bring Shiming back?"

"No need, if you are truly enlightened, he will be the same everywhere."

Hong Chengchou shook his head, and explained to Wu Sangui that after welcoming Zhu Youlang back, he needed to choose a secret place to settle him at the border, and only send his own soldiers to guard it, and never let the news leak out. If Doni knew, he would have denyed it. This is Shunzhi, and he doesn't have the courage to ask Wu Sangui about this matter.

The next day, Wu Sangui and Hong Chengchou went to visit Doni, and after treatment, Doni was in a slightly better spirit, but he said that he had decided to return to Guiyang with the Manchurian and Mongolian soldiers, and chose the opportunity to go north to Huguang, and Wu Sangui was responsible for the affairs of Yunnan Province.

Wu Sangui and Hong Chengchou glanced at each other, and the two knew that the so-called opportunity to go north to Huguang was false, and this Doni probably had the heart to flee back to the north, and in the future, he would definitely go to Sichuan Province instead of Huguang.

Not two days after Doni left, news came, but it was that Zhang Changgeng, the governor of Huguang, opened Wuchang City to descend to Ming.

Since the entry of the Qing Dynasty, the prince and the governor have been killed and captured in battle, but there has never been a matter of the governor surrendering to Ming, which has intensified Wu Sangui's desire to return to Ming.

At the end of September, another definite news came, Shunzhi set up a camp in Jiangbei in Yangzhou Yi, and a water camp in Guazhou, and ordered the thieves to be leveled.
