Chapter 118: The Battle of Xinfeng (4)
sent Li Yuanyin away, Zheng Chenggong asked someone to bring Heluohui up.
Zheng Chenggong looked at him and said arrogantly: "This general has a lot of soldiers and horses, and he can't be placed in a few provinces. If we are willing to hand over Fujian, Guangdong, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang provinces to our troops to raise grain. Then there are no waves in the sea, and the place is peaceful. Otherwise, there will be a lot of trouble, and the disaster will be unpredictable! ”
Heluo would hear Zheng Chenggong's lion open his mouth, and he actually asked for the places of Fujian, Guangdong, Zhejiang, and Jiangsu provinces, and scolded angrily and laughing: "Arrogant child, dare to ask for insatiable ......"
Hearing that Heluo would scold, Zheng Chenggong shouted angrily: "Come on, beat this person to me with a stick......"
He Luohui fled with a few scars and ran back to Xinfeng.
Heluo would return to Xinfeng and immediately cry to Tan Tai about Zheng Chenggong's rudeness and barbarism, and ask the general to give him soldiers and horses to avenge the next great revenge.
Tan Tai smiled and appeased Heluohui and said, "General He, don't be angry, General Shang's strategy is still effective." According to the report of the Ming Dynasty, Li Chengdong sent his righteous son Li Yuanyin to Zheng Chenggong for help, but he didn't expect Zheng Chenggong to take the opportunity to ask for money and food. In the end, it's just a pirate, I want benefits on both sides, it's just a greedy villain, don't worry! When Guangdong is defeated, I will let you lead troops to attack Zheng Chenggong. Well, revenge! ”
He Luohui heard it and knelt down happily and kowtowed, saying, "General Xie, the slave will definitely give Zheng Haikou's head to the general to make a night pot!" ”
Tan Tai said with a smile: "Okay, but it can't be ruled out that after Zheng Haikou receives the money and food, he will really send troops to support Li Chengdong." Just in case, the order was ordered to the Fujian Qing soldiers to contain Zheng Chenggong. ”
Heluo will be busy drinking: "Yes, the slave will go." ”
……
After receiving the order of Tan Tai, the general of the southern expedition, to send troops from Fujian to contain Zheng Chenggong, Li Qingtai, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and Zhang Xuesheng, the governor of Fujian, were worried about their gray hair.
After successive failures in attacking Zheng Chenggong before, there are not many soldiers and horses in Fujian now, and the only ones left have to guard Fuzhou and other important towns, and there is no surplus to attack Zheng Chenggong.
Zhang Xuesheng, the governor of Fujian, said with a bitter face: "My lord, you also know the situation in Fujian. I really can't muster troops. Please explain this to General Seinan! ”
Li Qingtai also said with a sad face: "Hey, it's difficult! Tan Tai is the regent's confidant general, and now it is the critical time to attack Guangdong, where is he willing to listen to my explanation. ”
Zhang Xuesheng frowned when he heard this and said, "What can I do about this?" Ma Degong and Wang Bangjun were killed in battle, Zhao Guozha was beheaded, and there were few generals left in Fujian who could lead troops to fight. ”
Li Qingtai said sadly: "If Fujian does not send troops, in case the attack on Guangdong does not go well, I am afraid that the general of Zhengnan will join us to the regent, and then not only will I not be able to protect my flowers, but even my life will be worried!" ”
When Zhang Xuesheng heard this, he pondered for a while, then hesitated and said, "How about asking General Jin Li of Pingnan to help us eradicate Zheng Haikou?" ”
Hearing Zhang Xuesheng say that Pingnan General Jin Li assisted in eradicating Zheng Chenggong, Li Qingtai's eyes lit up.
This is a good way, Fujian does not have many soldiers and horses, and Zhejiang is fine.
The Pingnan general Jin Li mainly exterminated the Zhoushan Rebels under the banner of Lujian State. But those rebels didn't have a thief leader as strong as Zheng Chenggong.
The Zhoushan Righteous Army was pursued and killed by Jin Li, and it was defeated. Even the nominal leader of the alliance, Lu Jianguo, was forced to hide in the sea by boat.
With 50,000 soldiers and horses of General Pingnan, I dare not say that I will be able to eliminate Zheng Haikou, but at least it can play a role in diversion.
But soon Li Qingtai shook his head and said: "Although I am one level older than Jin Li, I am also in charge of the military and political affairs of Fujian and Zhejiang. But General Pingnan is not under my control, and it is still unknown whether he will obey orders or not! ”
Zhang Xuesheng said cautiously: "Otherwise, my lord will make a statement to the general of Zhengnan, and the soldiers and horses of Fujian and Zhejiang are not in command of each other, and it will be difficult to eliminate the traitors of the pirates." When the Pingnan general Jin Li commands the soldiers and horses of Fujian and Zhejiang, and works together, they will be able to sweep away the Fujian and Zhejiang rebels. ”
Li Qingtai pondered for a while, and said helplessly: "The current situation is like this, and I can only entrust this important task to General Pingnan." ”
Li Qingtai and Zhang Xuesheng jointly went on to conquer the southern general Tantai, hoping that the Pingnan general Jin Li would command the troops and horses of Fujian and Zhejiang to suppress the rebellion.
Tan Tai received the document, thought about it and felt that Li Qingtai and Zhang Xuesheng alone could not eradicate Zheng Haikou, so he agreed with their opinions and sent an official letter to Jin Li, asking him to send troops to contain Zheng Haikou.
After receiving the military order, Jin Li was troubled for a while, and now he forced Lu Jianguo to hide overseas, and with more strength, he could eradicate the rebels in Zhoushan.
At this time, I went to Fujian to eradicate Zheng Chenggong, in case I left, and the rebel army in Zhoushan revived, wouldn't it be a failure.
No, you must not take troops to Fujian at this time,
It's just that Tan Tai is the confidant of the regent Dorgon, and if he offends him, Jin Li doesn't have to mix in the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Jin Li was in a dilemma, so he had to invite his curtain guest Jia Si to tell him his troubles.
Jia Si's eyes rolled, and he immediately came up with a bad idea, and said: "General, General Zhengnan just asked us to send troops to contain Zheng Chenggong, and we don't need to use all our troops and horses. The general can send a general to lead a part of the soldiers and horses to attack Quanzhou, and let Zheng Chenggong send troops to the rescue, which can be regarded as containing Zheng Chenggong's soldiers and horses. ”
When Jin Li heard this, he thought it was a good idea, and immediately summoned his subordinates over and shouted: "General Zhengnan has an order, so that we can send troops to contain Zheng Chenggong." It's just that the general's army is at a critical time to exterminate Lu Jianguo, and he can't get out. So I want to send a general to lead a part of it to Fujian to contain Zheng Haikou. The general would like to ask for this order? ”
"The general would like to ask for this order?"
"The general would like to ask for this order?"
Jin Li asked three times in a row, but no one dared to step forward to answer.
None of Jin Li's subordinates are fools, and now they are about to exterminate the rebels in Zhoushan and make great contributions.
At this time, I went to attack Zheng Chenggong, the person who sent it, the success was good, but the sin of failure was great, and I didn't see how tragic Zhao Guoza's fate was.
That's good now waiting for the credit to come.
One by one, they desperately stepped back, hoping that Jin Li would not see him.
Jin Li looked at this scene and was annoyed.
However, Jin Li also knew that this matter could not be forced, otherwise, if the people sent to Zheng Chenggong had taken refuge in Zheng Chenggong, he would not only be ignorant of the employment on his back, but he might also have to suffer because of the delay of the fighter.
Thinking of this, Jin Li was ruthless and decided to let his henchman Wang Jin lead the troops to contain Zheng Chenggong.
He is his own horse, so he should solve his own problems. It's a big deal to compensate him more in the future.
Jin Li said to Wang Jin with a pleasant face: "General Wang, are you willing to lead the troops to contain Zheng Chenggong and share the worries of the Qing Dynasty." ”
After finishing speaking, Jin Li's eyes were staring at Wang Jin.
To be honest, Wang Jin was full of unwillingness to carry out this useless task.
But Wang Jin thought that he had always been Jin Li's henchman, and he had always been loyal and courageous, if he retreated now, not to mention that he would definitely not be able to get along with Jin Li in the future.
It's better to seek wealth and danger, and besides, it's just containment, not really attacking.
Wang Jin bit it, and his heart was horizontal. Said loyally: "General Meng is loved and taken as a confidant. The last general has nothing to repay, and he is willing to serve the general, thinking that he will share his worries in the Qing Dynasty! ”
When Jin Li heard this, he thought in his heart. At the critical moment, he is still reliable with his henchmen, and he is not presumptuous in his past cultivation.
Jin Li said happily: "Okay! The general ordered you to attack Quanzhou and contain Zheng Chenggong's soldiers and horses. Don't have it! ”
Wang Jin stepped forward and said, "Obey!" ”
