382 Zuo Menggeng's decision
As soon as the general's words were finished, the general next to him who was called Yang Dayan immediately opened his mouth and scolded angrily, "His grandmother's Han dog egg, the handsome man hasn't spoken yet, it's your turn to interject here, you know, Lao Tzu is the commander of the three products, what kind of thing are you, a small five-grade thousand households, you dare to spread wild here, if you let go of Lao Tzu's barracks, you would have been pulled out and cut down."

It seems that in the entire Zuojia army, it seems how loyal and brave you are, don't forget, when you followed the commander to fight the world, every time I fought, I Yang Dayan took the lead in the charge, but when was that, when is it now, now the general trend of the world has become clear, in the future, the world will either return to the Ming Dynasty, or land in the hands of the Manchu court, and for the Ming court, you don't have to be delusional, you know, although we still nominally hang the banner of the Ming court, but you must know, At the beginning, we went north to Henan, taking advantage of the Shaanxi Ming court and the Manchu Qing Dynasty to carry out a big war, but took a lot of advantage, I am afraid that the Shaanxi court in the big people, we are already hating us, in this case, we can only take refuge in the Manchu court, this general is for the sake of the entire Zuo army and the marshal, you are a rough man who doesn't know anything, here to make a big fuss, if because of your own ideas, the lives of hundreds of thousands of brothers in our Zuojia army, I am afraid that you will die without turning a blind eye. ”
As soon as Yang Dayan's words came out, many of the generals of the Zuo Family Army in the hall suddenly fell silent, to be honest, there are actually some people who still have backbone in their hearts among these people, but they have no intention of refuting Yang Dayan's words, after all, they are not alone, each of them has tens of thousands of brothers following them, if it is really because of one of their wrong decisions, so many brothers under them have an accident, then it will be too late to regret it.
After seeing that everyone fell silent and did not contradict their own opinions, Yang Dayan couldn't help but be proud, turned to Zuo Mengeng, who was sitting at the top, and casually arched his hand, and then said, "Dashuai, you have also seen the current situation, we have no other way than to take refuge in the Manchu court, so in order to avoid unnecessary losses, please make a decision as soon as possible." ”
From the beginning to the present, Zuo Mengeng has not spoken, not that he is unwilling to speak, but that he has no chance to interject at all, although this situation has started since Zuo Liangyu died, but he is powerless at all, except for desperately suppressing the anger in his heart, there is no other way, after all, the strength he can control now is too little, if he really persecutes these people too much, I am afraid that these people will really tear their faces with him, when the time comes, But there's really no room for manoeuvre.
However, today, seeing the scene in front of him, as if he was singing, Zuo Mengeng knew that if he didn't speak, I was afraid that things would really be irreparable, and really wait until they unite and surrender to the Manchu court, at that time, he will really be the general trend, when the time comes, if it is good, he will become a rich man, and live without power for a lifetime, if it is not good, after the surrender, the Manchu court will directly cut through the chaos in order to completely control hundreds of thousands of Zuo family troops, Killing them all, no matter what, is not what Zuo Mengeng wants to see.
"Uncle Yang is right, for the future of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in our Zuojia army, how to choose, this is indeed a very serious matter, after all, if one is not good, hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be wiped out, this is probably not what we want to see, so, according to the meaning of the little nephew, where is the Manchu court, let's talk to them first, if the conditions they give, we think it's okay, it's not too late to talk about surrender, after all, if their conditions are too harsh, even if we really surrender, I'm afraid that it will be mermaid meat at that time, and I will regret it when the time comes, I'm afraid it will be too late. Zuo Mengeng said softly.
As soon as Zuo Mengeng's words came out, he immediately got the nods of many generals in the hall and said yes, after all, they are all people with status and status, surrender to nothing, if they surrender, they can't pay attention to it, and at the same time they can't get enough benefits, why should they surrender with infamy, after all, the reason why they are willing to surrender is not that they want to rely on the big tree of the Manchu court to get enough benefits for themselves.
Hearing Zuo Mengeng's words and seeing the attitude of the people around him, Yang Dayan knew that it was simply impossible to persuade Zuo Mengeng to surrender directly today, so he did not continue to persuade, but said to Zuo Mengeng, "Since the marshal said so, then those of us who are subordinates have nothing to say, but now the front-line war is urgent, and the Manchu court army is sharp, and in just these few days, we have already broken through more than ten of our counties, if the stalemate continues, I'm afraid that before we can negotiate with them, the Manchu army will be in the city, and when the time comes, let alone ask for benefits, whether they can survive is still unknown. After finishing speaking, Yang Dayan turned around and left the hall, and Yang Dayan left with a few generals with heavy troops.
Looking at Yang Dayan's distant figure, although Zuo Mengeng was angry in his heart, he could only be a tough ninja and wait for the opportunity to come.
"Brother Yang, did you say that Zuo Mengeng, this kid, has already seen through our thoughts, otherwise, how could he die and just don't open his mouth to surrender, you know, you have already said just now, as long as he surrenders, he can still get the title of a prince, but even so, he is unwilling, this thing is a little weird!" The generals who walked out of the hall with Yang Dayan walked quickly to Yang Dayan's side and asked in a low voice after they just walked out.
These people have a good relationship with Yang Dayan, they are all after Zuo Liangyu's incident, they have heavy troops in their hands, and they want to take advantage of the opportunity to become independent, but due to the form, they have not achieved their wishes, and in desperation, they have to unite to fight against Zuo Mengeng, and this surrender to the Manchu army is also operated by them, in order to hope that through this matter, they can get the attention of the Manchu court, so as to get more benefits and benefits.
"Hmph, brothers, although Zuo Mengeng is young, he is not stupid, our intentions are so obvious, how can he not see it, besides, if that Han dog does not have Zuo Mengeng's support, he dares to jump out and fight against this general, of course, he can see what, the current situation is like this, the Manchu court soldiers outside are pressing, and in the middle, we all want to surrender, even if he is unwilling to surrender, but what can he do, with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands, Do you want to resist the attack of hundreds of thousands of Manchu Qing troops, that is simply whimsical, so, you just watch, soon he will compromise with us, as long as he compromises with us, we will immediately contact the big man of the Manchu court, when the time comes, with this great merit, even if you can't get a hereditary prince like Wu Sangui, but the title of a duke is also indispensable, even if you don't have military power in the future, at least you can live a happy life, right? Yang couldn't help but sneer and said.
Hearing Yang Dayan's words, the generals around him nodded and praised one after another.
When Yang Dayan and the others left, the hall that was originally quite lively suddenly became deserted, and the remaining generals supported Zuo Mengeng for various reasons, but although they were numerous, the strength in their hands was not large, so this was also the reason why they could not resist in the face of the oppression of Yang Dayan's people.
"Dashuai, do you really want to surrender to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, you know, this Zuojia army was established by the old marshal with hard work, and now it is going to be handed over like this, if it is someone else, I have nothing to say, but if you want to give it to the Manchu Tartars, I am the first to be unwilling, we people have nothing, we will die, but those Manchu Tartars, is not a good thing at all, if we surrender, they go back on their word, it is not good for you, even if we die, we have no face to see the old handsome! So, you must think twice about this matter. Seeing Zuo Mengeng with an iron face, a veteran stood up and persuaded him.
"Uncle Zhao, you are an old man who follows my father, I also know that what you said is for the good of the little nephew, but now, the little nephew can't think of any other way, now the Manchu army Chen soldiers are hundreds of thousands, coming towards us with great momentum, and we internally, but most of the people do not have the determination to fight at all, with this little power in our hands, I am afraid that it is not as good as resisting the Manchu army, I am afraid that even Yang Dayan is not as good as them, if they do not surrender, I am afraid that they really have to say the same to Yang Dayan, wait until the Manchu army, When the soldiers come to the city, we are afraid that if we want to surrender, they will not be willing. Zuo Mengeng said with some sadness.
Obviously, he has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, but when he dies, he doesn't even have the ability to fight, and there is nothing more tragic than this in the world.
After listening to Zuo Mengeng's words, the veterans who were originally going to persuade Zuo Mengeng not to surrender also stopped talking, the fact is that they can't change if they want to.
"His grandmother's, Dashuai, old generals, I don't believe it anymore, this living person can suffocate urine, isn't it just a group of Tartars, what's the big deal, they are not really invincible in the world, it's a big deal that we surrender to the Ming Court in Shaanxi, besides, we were originally the Ming Army, and now it's nothing great to belong to the imperial court, Dashuai, don't you still have the title of the king of the county, you write a letter to Xi'an, I don't believe it, the people of the Xi'an court, You can watch us being swallowed by the Manchu court, you know, our vast lake is a big fat meat, I don't believe it, they don't look at it. Just when Zuo Mengeng and the others had gloomy expressions, they suddenly shouted in a loud voice.
When everyone heard Han Goudan's words, their eyes lit up at first, but soon, they became dim, not that they were unwilling to ask the Shaanxi court for help, after all, at this time, only the Shaanxi Ming Court could really save them, but just like Yang Dayan said just now, there was a festival between them and the Ming court, just like the Jingxiang King who inherited from Zuo Liangyu on Zuo Mengeng's body now, that is, the Ming court pinched his nose and gave them the title as a last resort, if they ask the Shaanxi Ming court for help now, Doesn't it happen to hit someone's hands, and it's no wonder that people don't retaliate against them?
"Virtuous nephew, in fact, this idea of the dog is not impossible, you must know that now the Manchu court is in the south, wantonly expanding its territory, is it that the Ming court of Shaanxi is watching it like this, they must be unhappy in their hearts, but they are also out of reach, plus, their internal affairs are constant, so they can only do it in a hurry, but when is it now, now is the most critical time, we were defeated by the Manchu court to the point that it is not a big deal, But if the Manchu court is allowed to seize the granary of Huguang, then the Shaanxi Ming court will fall into passivity, so if the old man's estimate is good, the Shaanxi court must be anxious now? Therefore, if we ask Shaanxi Ming Court for help at this time, they will definitely come immediately. A veteran said lightly.
"However, Uncle Feng, you must know that we have had such an unpleasant affair with the Shaanxi Ming Court directly after all, and they all say that the father and son repay the debt, even if we ask for the Shaanxi Ming army, but after they defeat the Manchu court, I am afraid we will not be happy!" Zuo Mengeng said hesitantly.
"What the virtuous nephew said is good, but it also depends on the situation, if it is a peaceful time, the young marshal will definitely be suppressed and retaliated, but now it is not necessarily, you know, when is it now, when the world is in chaos, all forces are trying to strengthen themselves by all means, if we surrender to the Ming Court in Shaanxi, then they will not only be able to get our hundreds of thousands of troops, but also be able to have this fat lake, in this way, just for their own face, They will not do this kind of thing that chills the heroes of the world, otherwise, how dare other forces join them in the future, and maybe even the virtuous nephew can have more gains because of this, that is also possible. The veteran said with a smile.
After listening to the veteran's words, Zuo Mengeng thought about it, and nodded in agreement, after all, even if he was unwilling, he had to make a decision, otherwise, when the Manchu army came to the city, it would be too late.
