Chapter 55 Jiannu enters Jiangxi

July 15, Nanchang

This provincial capital of Jiangxi has been included in the rule of the Qing court for more than a year since it was occupied by Jin Shengheng and the central part of Wang Ti in June of the first year of Hongguang (1645), and has been the residence of the governor of Jiangxi and the governor of Jiangxi.

Unlike usual, the green flags at the head of the city and in the barracks in the city have been covered with dense Manchurian yellow flags and blue flags. The people in the camp roared and neighed, and everywhere you could see Manchurian soldiers wearing yellow or blue armor with red trim, and the noisy words pierced people's eardrums.

Most of the people in the vicinity were too frightened to go out, although they had been forced to shave their hair and become nominally subjects of the "Great Qing", but they still had lingering fears in the face of the legendary fierce Manchurian Jiannu.

At the gate of the governor's yamen, almost all the green battalion soldiers who usually stood guard were replaced by the Jiannu who had a "lightning rod" on their heads. Entering the gate, on the road leading to the inner courtyard, there are even more white armor soldiers with bright helmets and bright armor and red tassels.

At this time, in the living room of the back hall of the government office, a Jiannu general in his early forties and well-dressed iron armor was sitting in the first place with an angry face, which was the Zhenghuang Banner Gushan Ezhen Tulai who had just arrived in Nanchang with his army. On both sides of him, Jiangxi Governor Zhang Yutian, Inspector Dong Xuecheng, Jiangxi Governor Jin Shengheng, and Ke Yongsheng, who had just been appointed as the commander-in-chief of Southern Jiangxi, were standing with their heads bowed, and they did not dare to come out.

"There are tens of thousands of people under your command, why can't you even take a small Ji'an?!" Turai shouted at the few people in front of him, "Looking at the rest of the provinces, my Qing soldiers and horses are invincible!" Only Gannan was defeated, and he actually let the remnants of the puppet Ming army gain the upper hand! It's ridiculous! Where are you spending your mind?! ”

"Tujunmen is angry," Zhang Yutian said tremblingly, "because all kinds of puppet Ming reinforcements rushed to Ji'an......"

"Nonsense!" Before Zhang Yutian could finish speaking, Turai shouted again, "Are you completely ignorant to me?!" It was you who waited for the first retreat, and the reinforcements from all walks of life arrived in Ji'an one after another! It's just incompetence, and you still have to deny it?! ”

At this time, Zhang Yutian no longer dared to speak casually, and layers of sweat beads appeared on Dong Xuecheng's head.

At the end of April, after Bo Luo, the general of the expedition to the south, arrived in Nanjing, he learned that Jin Shengheng and other troops had suffered a defeat under the city of Ji'an and returned with a great defeat. At that time, Bolo was furious and scolded Jin Shengheng for being a waste, but he was about to attack the Lu Jianguo regime at that time, and he didn't have time to take care of it. After the pacification of the Lu Jianguo regime in eastern Zhejiang, Bo Luo remembered that the battle of Ji'an almost became more and more angry, and he couldn't figure it out, Jin Shengheng and Ke Yongsheng's tens of thousands of people couldn't even take down Ji'an, which was guarded by thousands of Ming troops! Even if some Ming army reinforcements arrived in Ganzhou later, there were only more than 10,000 people, but Jin Shengheng and others not only did not make the slightest progress but retreated north in a hurry, which is simply a big joke in the world! Therefore, after exterminating the remnants of the Lu Jian State, Bo Luo not only personally led the main force towards Fujian, but also asked Turai to lead the Yellow Banner and the Blue Banner to Nanchang with a total of nearly 10,000 horses, and led Jin Shengheng, Ke Yongsheng and other troops to attack southern Jiangxi again, in order to advance on both sides and destroy the Longwu Imperial Court in one fell swoop.

"When General Zhengnan heard about this, he was very angry!" "Let me find out the details when I arrive in Nanchang, and punish those wastes who will only ruin the prestige of the Qing Dynasty!" ”

Jin Shengheng and Ke Yongsheng stood with their hands down, and they didn't dare to raise their heads. Although Thurai's words made them very depressed, how could they dare to openly oppose their master as a slave?

However, Turai didn't seem to want to let them go easily, so he stood up and walked up to them, and scolded angrily: "Last time, you two were in charge of attacking Ji'an?!" Tens of thousands of people can't beat a city guarded by thousands of people, you are all waste? Your subordinates are all wine bags and rice bags?! ”…,

"Tu Junmen is angry, please let General Rong Mo come carefully." Jin Shengheng plucked up his courage and said.

"Say!" Turai's eyes widened with rage.

"Huh!" Jin Shengheng said, "Originally, the last general and others could have taken Ji'an, but I never thought that Pang Yue, the general of Ganzhou in the puppet Ming Dynasty, would actually lead reinforcements to arrive in just two days, which really caught the last general and others off guard." Moreover, that Pang Yue was scheming, and there were more than 10,000 elite soldiers under his account, and he took the opportunity to sneak attack the grain and grass storage place of the last general, so he ......"

"Shut up!" Turai rudely interrupted Jin Shengheng, "He has more than 10,000 elite soldiers, do you only have tens of thousands of pigs under your command?!" He's scheming, is it shit in your head?! It's not easy for you to reflect on your defeat in this battle, but you have to quibble and deny it in every way, which is really hateful! Come! ”

"In!" Several fierce white-armored guards entered.

At this moment, Jin Shengheng and Ke Yongsheng were very frightened, and they wanted to defend and beg for mercy but found that their lips were trembling, and they couldn't speak.

"Drag these two out of here!" Turai pointed at Jin Shengheng and Ke Yongsheng, "Beat thirty military sticks!" ”

"Huh!" The white-armored guards agreed with a bang, and dragged Jin Shengheng and Ke Yongsheng out.

"Tujunmen atonement!" "Tujunmen atonement!" Jin Shengheng and Ke Yongsheng shouted as they struggled. Although beating a military stick is not as serious as cutting off a head, it is also a big punishment for the two of them, not to mention the pain of flesh and skin, and they can't get over it in terms of face.

After a while, the screams of Jin Shengheng and Ke Yongsheng came from outside the door. This military stick was beaten by Goshha beside Tulai, so naturally there would not be any moisture.

Listening to the screams outside the door, Turai sat back in his original seat and said coldly to Zhang Yutian: "Zhang Futai, tell me, what is the origin of this puppet Ming Ganzhou Town Chief Soldier Pang Yue?" ”

At this time, Zhang Yutian was already sweating and his back was sweating, and his legs were trembling slightly, and he hurriedly replied tremblingly when he heard Tu Lai's question: "If you go back to Tujunmen, this pseudo-Ming Ganzhou Town was only opened last year and formed, but it is ...... A new army ......"

"The New Army?" Turai frowned, the clouds on his face became a little thicker, and when he saw Zhang Yutian being too frightened to speak, he said in disgust, "What are you afraid of?" Go on. What is the origin of this Pang Yue? ”

"Yes!" Zhang Yutian lowered his head and continued to answer, "This Pang Yue was originally a member of the puppet Ming Yasukuni public account, and last year he narrowly escaped from the encirclement of the Qing Dynasty in the Battle of Digang, and later was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the puppet Ming Ganzhou because of his meritorious service in supporting the puppet emperor Zhu Yujian. ”

"Huang Chuangzi's subordinates? Escape from Ogi Port? Hearing this, Turai's eyes became solemn, and he also participated in the Battle of Ogi Port last year. In that battle, Huang Degong died in battle, tens of thousands of troops under his command collapsed, Emperor Hongguang was also captured, and Turai himself was promoted to Zhenghuang Banner Gushan Ezhen because of his merits afterwards.

Although Thurai knew that a few small groups of Ming troops had escaped at that time, he, like Nikan and others, did not take this matter to heart, after all, in their eyes, one or two fish that slipped through the net could no longer set off strong winds and waves. But I never thought that such a threatening figure would escape at that time, and in less than a year, tens of thousands of horses were raised, and tens of thousands of troops of Jin Shengheng and Ke Yongsheng were beaten all over the ground.

"Is that true? Can you guarantee that you are not mistaken? "Thurai intends to make a final confirmation.

Zhang Yutian was terrified: "Even if the lower officials have thousands of courages, they don't dare to deceive the Tujunmen." ”

It seems that this Pang Yue is not an easy character to deal with, at least among the pseudo-Ming generals, he is a powerful character! Turai said silently in his heart. As an adventurous man, Turai was not afraid of formidable opponents, but it was the ones that were too smooth to get him bored. …,

"Okay, Zhang Futai," said Turai, after thinking for a while, "when our army first arrived in Nanchang, the grain and grass were not very sufficient, and the follow-up grain and grass could not be transported for a while and a half. Well, you go raise another batch. After resting for a few days, our army will go south to collect Ji'an, Ganzhou and other places, I want to see how capable this Pang Yue is! ”

Hearing the words raising grain and grass, Zhang Yutian felt a little headache, he almost turned his face with Jin Shengheng last time because of this matter.

"What? Is there any difficulty in Zhang Futai? Seeing Zhang Yutian stunned for a while, Turai couldn't help but be a little annoyed.

"No, no! The lower official must do it as soon as possible! Zhang Yutian, who was frightened by Turai's knife-like gaze, hurriedly agreed.

When Turai led his army to Nanchang, Pang Yue was rushing to Yanping Mansion with the Flying Tiger Battalion day and night. As early as a few days ago, he set out from Ganzhou, with only one purpose, that is, to take Emperor Longwu out of Fujian, to avoid the recurrence of the original historical tragedy, and to leave an ambitious monarch for the already stormy Southern Ming.

Pang Yue's move naturally attracted a lot of opposition, but he still insisted on his decision. Because he knows that there is not much time left for him, the opportunity is fleeting, and once he misses the last opportunity because of hesitation, he will not be able to find a regret pill. So, after temporarily handing over all kinds of affairs to Zhang Yunli to take care of, Pang Yue set off with the Flying Tiger Battalion. Seeing that he could not dissuade Pang Yue, Tian Shizun also asked to go together, but Pang Yue did not object to this, and readily agreed to his request.

On the evening of 16 July, Pang Yue had already led his army into the territory of Tingzhou Prefecture at the junction of Fujian and Jiangxi, and camped next to a small village outside Tingzhou City.

After dinner, Pang Yue silently walked out of the tent and looked at the stars in the sky with emotion. In the original history, Emperor Longwu was killed after being chased by the Qing army in Tingzhou, and the time was only more than a month later, and I don't know if this almost crazy move of his own this time allowed Emperor Longwu to escape this catastrophe.

"Your Excellency, are you really going to do this?" Tian Shizun walked to Pang Yue's side, sighed and said, "In this way, the consequences are unpredictable!" With all due respect, as long as you make this move, it is all up to your Majesty whether you are a hero or a traitor who is trying to rebel! ”

"Mr. Zijing, we have all arrived here, can we turn back?" Pang Yue's eyes raised slightly, looking at the stars in the sky, "I have already said about this matter, compared to the safety of His Majesty, my personal gains and losses are insignificant!" Furthermore, I believe that Your Majesty can make the right judgment! ”

Although Tian Shizun had heard this many times, he still sighed at Pang Yue's loyalty in his heart and mouth as usual, in his own words: Although he had read countless people, he had never seen such a precocious and loyal courtier. With such a loyal minister and a good general, why is the Ming hopeless?

But Tian Shizun didn't know that when Pang Yue said those passionate words, there was still a subtext in his heart that he didn't pronounce: It's a big deal, Lao Tzu crosses again!
