The eight imperial merchants were wiped out, so that Qianlong finally got rid of the financial embarrassment. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Before, he couldn't even pay his military salary.

However, the price is also very serious, Zezhou, Lu'an, Pingyang and other prefectures that still insisted on under the banner of the Qing Dynasty completely abandoned the last trace of illusion, cut their braids and then erected the banner of the Ming Dynasty, and then the Northwest Economic Strategy Embassy in Xi'an quickly sent troops to station at their invitation. And Qianlong is very self-aware, he knows that he has no problem bullying the brothers, but grabbing territory with the Ming army is purely dead, so the Qing army has never passed Huozhou, and the Ming army is too lazy to go north, after all, the logistics supply capacity is a huge constraint on them.

You must know that their supplies are all transported by truckload through the Kun Culvert Road, and the Ming army is not ready to launch any large-scale offensive war before stockpiling enough ammunition, not to mention that even if they have to fight, the northern front is not their preferred direction.

In this way, the two sides took the Taiyue Mountains as the dividing line and formed a confrontation.

After Qianlong annexed Yinzuo's territory, Yinxi, who occupied Yan'an, nominally recognized his status as emperor, but only nominally, the brothers didn't care about anyone, he was poor and didn't have much oil and water, and Qianlong had no interest in wasting his energy to clean it up. Similarly, the Ming army is not interested in Yan'an, they are not even interested in Taiyuan now, not to mention the broken place in northern Shaanxi, there is neither potato species nor a certain species, and that place may not even be enough to eat, so Yinxi is also gradually stabilized in northern Shaanxi, and he controls the west of Luliang Mountain, that is, Yan'an Mansion, Qingyang Mansion, Suide Prefecture, and Juzhou.

At the same time, the news of Yinren's succession to the throne in Chengdu finally came out.

And his era name is......

Yongzheng.

Well, this is very thunderous, but thunder people are not thunderers, and now the Qing Dynasty finally has a situation where Yongzheng and Qianlong, plus the three emperors of the Great Qing Kingdom in Shengjing, are side by side.

Yinren had the support of Ba Xi, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and the latter had the support of the landlords and gentry of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, after all, they were too far away from Yang Feng, even if the Ming army expanded, it was impossible to expand to them in a short time, under the banner of the Qing Dynasty, those gentry could at least live a few more comfortable days. Although they supported Yinren, but the soldiers were not out, the money was not paid, and even they refused to go to Yungui, anyway, Yinren brought less than 5,000 soldiers in total, and he was not able to confront the tens of thousands of Yungui green battalions that were actually controlled by the gentry, so His Majesty Emperor Yongzheng still had a very bleak life in Chengdu, and it is said that he was almost bitten by a tiger in Chengdu......

Well, this tiger didn't have it in his garden.

The tigers in Sichuan are fierce, they used to eat human flesh, but now they have basically developed a habit, and they can go to the city to hunt in broad daylight.

And the seventh elder brother Yinyou who occupies Lanzhou chose Yongzheng, in fact, he has no other choice, he should be the most dangerous place at present, because the Ming army has begun to repair the Longplank Road, and it is clear that the next step is to attack Tianshui under his control, and if he takes refuge in the boss, the boss will not be able to help him, but if he takes refuge in the second brother, he will not be able to help him......

Of course, it is useless to take refuge in his second brother, after all, the Ming army has occupied Hanzhong, and he can attack Longnan at any time.

In short, this is the place that the Qing army can actually control at present, Sichuan, Longyou, northern Shaanxi, northern Shanxi, northern Jinjiang, Mengjiang, Manchuria, and Yungui, which is still nominally under the banner of the Qing Dynasty, is still a lot, and if you really count the territory area, it adds up to more than the Ming army. But it's a pity that it's useless, either the land is barren and it's difficult to eat, or the land is fertile but there are no people for hundreds of miles, and they are not hostile to each other, that is, they rely on distance and complex terrain to isolate them and survive there, and the Ming army really wants to slap the goods to death.

As for the rest of the world......

"It is rumored that Guo Xiu, the pseudo governor of Huguang, has come to see you!"

"Spread the puppet Governor of Liangguang, Peng Peng, to meet you!"

A eunuch shouted in front of the Fengtian Hall of the Nanjing Imperial Palace.

The two old men who had just cut their braids and had their hair scattered quickly stood up, hunched over, and walked up the steps with small steps holding a few silk books in both hands, and then the eunuch turned around and led them into the Fengtian Temple, kneeling together in the middle of the main hall.

"Guo Xiu, the puppet governor of Huguang in the Qing Dynasty, visited the Ming Dynasty and Wu Wang Chitose in the map books of Hubei and Hunan provinces."

One of the old men shouted with his head bowed while holding a silk book.

"Peng Peng, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, visited the Ming Dynasty and the king of Wu Chitose!"

Then another old man shouted in the same pose.

Yang Feng, who was sitting under the plaque of Top Gun, swayed from the dragon chair in the shaking of the nine crown beads above his head, and then put on an imperial face and said expressionlessly: "Pardon and others are not guilty!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness Longen!"

The two old men hurriedly shouted together.

This means that they have opened the page of Kang Mazi as an official, these two people are both post-30s, of course, post-1630s, a handful of old bones don't ask for anything else, just ask Yang Feng not to pursue the problem of them not surrendering early, and now they are finally relieved.

The eunuch next to him hurriedly stepped forward to take the map of the four provinces drawn in their hands, plus the silk book that recorded the number of population, the division of administrative regions, the list of officials in various places, and the treasury money and grain, the garrison situation, etc., so that the four provinces of Hunan, Hubei, Guangdong, and Guangxi were officially returned to the Ming Dynasty. However, the two old men did not stand up, but each took out a silk book from his bosom and held it above his head and said: "Cao people Guo Xiu (Peng Peng), the people of Huguang (Liangguang) in the Jin Dynasty, respectfully ask His Royal Highness King Wu to ascend the throne as soon as possible in accordance with the mandate of heaven, so that the sea can be converted and the people will be blessed!" ”

"This matter has to be mentioned again, this king is a minister of the Ming Dynasty, how can there be any reason to replace it!"

Yang Feng said with a straight face.

"Mingzuo has ended, His Royal Highness has been continued, such as today, it is the result of His Royal Highness's bloody battle, the Zhu family has no size, how can he sit and enjoy the country? And since the abolition of the crown prince and the fall of the Tartar, the orthodoxy of the Ming family has been extinct, although it is expedient to establish the god of Chongzhen, but it can not be used for a long time, His Royal Highness is worthy of heaven and earth, and he can't bear to replace it, and then put the people of the world where to be? Now all the people look up to His Royal Highness, like the rain and dew of a long drought, like the spring breeze of a harsh winter, if His Royal Highness refuses again, how can he treat the people of Li? ”

Peng Peng said righteously.

He was originally the governor of Guangdong, Shi Lin, the governor of Liangguang, abandoned the official and fled, he was unanimously elected by the gentry of Liangguang to serve as the governor, with the earnest entrustment of the gentry of Liangguang, everyone understands that the most important thing at this time is to make Xinjun happy, but the problem is that it is too late for them to do anything, so there is only the best option left to persuade them, so before Peng Peng came, he had already made up his mind to eliminate all difficulties and must put Yang Wangye on the throne on behalf of the people of Liangguang, only in this way can Yang Wangye see the loyalty of the people of Liangguang.

As for Yang Feng's resignation......

It's all routines, it's all rules, it's all at this time, if anyone still believes that he really doesn't want to be the emperor, it's simply a donkey kicking his brain.

"This ......"

Yang Feng looked a little unreasonable.

"Your Highness, the people of Huguang are only willing to be the ministers of His Highness, Huguang only descends to His Highness and does not descend to Ming, if His Highness refuses to ascend the throne, millions of Li people in Huguang would rather fight to the end than allow the Ming army to enter the country!"

Guo Xiu said righteously.

"Well, don't be impulsive, this matter is extraordinary, you need to let this king think about it!"

Yang Feng hurriedly said.

"If His Highness refuses to ascend the throne, then millions of Li people in Liangguang will only fight to the end!"

Peng Peng said with the same righteous words.

"Your Highness, please ascend the throne!"

Immediately after that, the ministers and even the guards on duty in the main hall quickly knelt down and shouted loudly.

"What are you doing here, that you have to be caught in the unrighteousness of this king? Do you think that this king will not condemn you? ”

Yang Feng stood up and scolded angrily.

Then he flicked his sleeves and left.

Immediately after this time, the Huguang and Liangguang officials and gentry who came with Guo Xiu and the two of them, immediately all ran to the outside of the palace and knelt, kneeling to ask His Royal Highness King Wu to ascend the throne and call the emperor, if His Royal Highness King Wu did not agree, then they would have been kneeling there, and then soon the local people and officials in Nanjing and even the soldiers of the Ming army also ran to kneel outside the palace, and even some people wrote blood letters in public, and some simply carried hanging ropes, and the ancients cut their faces with knives to show their determination, in short, a huge persuasion activity was vigorously launched.

But Yang Wangye's moral character is too noble, even then he refuses to agree, and claims that if he is forced again, he will abandon his official position and go into hiding, find a ravine to continue cultivating!

In this way, the two sides immediately reached a stalemate, but then the people's representatives from all over the vicinity also came one after another, with the persuasion of the people from all over the country to join the kneeling procession, and it didn't take long for tens of thousands of people to kneel in front of the palace, and more people continued to come, and for a while the persuasion team became stronger and stronger, and even the gossip said that if Yang Wang Ye insisted again, the military would take action to add his yellow robe.

But it didn't take a turn for the better.

"King Yiyang has arrived!"

With a shout outside the palace gate, the Bada Shanren appeared again, followed by the Ming Dynasty clan.

These guys are also very clear, now is the time to reflect their value, Yang Feng has been raising them all these years, not just for this day, to be kind, in case it drags on for a long time, those Ming army generals simply give him a yellow robe, then they still have a fart value. Now that he behaves better, maybe Yang Feng can give them more preferential treatment when he is happy, otherwise he will be unhappy and become the emperor in the future, and it will be troublesome to learn from those founding monarchs in the past who killed the old dynasty clan.

"Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty has arrived, and King Yang Feng of Wu has received the decree!"

Zhu Qi did not enter the palace, but stood outside the palace gate, holding a holy decree in his hand, and shouted loudly in front of the people who persuaded him to enter the palace.

"Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty has arrived, and King Yang Feng of Wu has received the decree!"

The clans shouted along. (To be continued.) )
