Chapter 144: Proton
"Uncle Chang, why are you holding me, although Gao Di is from Shaanxi, he has been in western Liaoning for many years. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Zu Kuan said hurriedly: "Everyone has sent troops to delay, how can you let the overseer kill him?" ”
Wu Sangui said in a low voice: "Brother Kuan, listen to me, today's situation is not right, you can understand it after a while!" ”
Zu Kuan and Wu Sangui are world friends, and they know that although the other party is not very old, he is young and old, and he acts very steadily, so he took a step back and waited for the changes. I saw that the hall knelt on the ground, all of them were the generals of the Guan Ning Army, and they pleaded for Gao Di in unison, if Xiong Wencan was reluctant in the past, he would have to sell everyone's face. But now is different from the past, he sneered: "What a Guanning army, the imperial court has done its best to support you for many years, but it has raised a group of feudal towns that support the army and respect themselves, and such a major event as the fall of the Jingshi actually dares to join forces to deceive the governor, is there anything else you dare not do?" This superintendent is going to cut a high rank today, let you see the end of deceiving the officials! ”
As soon as the words fell, Dolgon led a group of soldiers to the hall, and the generals' faces changed greatly, and they hurriedly got up and stepped aside. The last general is from Shaanxi, how can he cover the sky with one hand. Please spare your life, Master Overseer! ”
"The ability is listed, and if you can't, you are the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, and the armies going south are under your control, since you don't have this ability, why are you greedy for the position? If you are interceding for this guy, you must be an accomplice with him and colluding with Liu Thief! Xiong Wencan sneered: "Drag it down, let's cut it together!" ”
Dolgon answered, and dragged Gao Di and the others down, and after a while, several bloody heads were presented, and the generals couldn't help but be silent when they saw it. Xiong Wencan glanced at the generals and said to Dolgon: "Dolgon, today this superintendent will appoint you as the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan to control the troops of Guanning to go south and crusade against Liu Cheng!" ”
"Uncle Chief, thanks to you today, otherwise my head would not be on my neck!" Zu Kuan walked out of the Governor's Palace, touched his neck, and said in horror: "I can't imagine that Lord Xiong is so broad on weekdays, but today he is so ruthless!" ”
"Brother Kuan, how can it be so simple!" Wu Sangui sighed: "Think about it, he didn't have a single soldier on hand before, even if he had any resentment in his heart, he could only endure it." This time he was forced into a corner, and with these Jurchens as wings, he was naturally very spicy! ”
While they were talking, there was a sudden rush of footsteps behind them, and the two turned around and saw more than a dozen Jurchen soldiers chasing after them, surrounding the two, and the first one said in a deep voice: "Two generals, the governor has an order, and all the generals are not allowed to leave the city today!" ”
"What is this for, taking us prisoners?" Zu Kuan was furious, but he was grabbed by Wu Sangui and said with a smile: "It's okay, but I don't know what arrangements the Governor has?" ”
Seeing that Wu Sangui was so easy to speak, the little Jurchen leader nodded and said, "Just wait for me!" ”
Wu Sangui and Zu Kuan went west under the escort of the Jurchen soldiers, and just after half a street, Wu Sangui suddenly showed a surprised look on his face, and said to a pedestrian on the side of the road: "Uncle, why are you here?" ”
The little Jurchen leader was attracted by Wu Sangui's actions, and looked at the passerby, Wu Sangui took the opportunity to fly on the horse, pushed him off the horse, kicked the horse's stomach twice, and shouted: "Brother Kuan, run!" ”
Zu Kuan's reaction was not slow, and with a stretch of his right hand, he ripped off the other Jurchen knight beside him and rode his horse to follow. Only then did the escorted Jurchen soldiers react, shouting and chasing after them, but the start was already slow, how to catch up. Wu Sangui took out the bow and arrow from the saddlebag, reflexively shot the pursuers, he was born in the gate, since he was a child, he spent a lot of effort on the bow horse, and now it is the time when it is related to life, but also to make all the skills of his life, like divine help, every time there is a release of the string, there is no arrow to fall off the horse. Seeing that he was so sharp, the pursuers didn't dare to chase too closely, so they let the two of them rush out of the city like this.
"Uncle, uncle!" Zu Kuan saw that the pursuers were not following, and shouted: "Slow down, there is no one to chase after you!" ”
Wu Sangui looked back, and sure enough, there were no pursuers, and counted the arrows in the quiver in the saddle bag, and there were only two arrows left, and sighed: "It is really the blessing of the ancestral gods, if these two arrows are missing, I am afraid that you and I will die in the city!" ”
"So what should we do now?" Zu Kuan asked.
"Let's go back to Luo Cheng first!" Wu Sangui sneered: "You are unkind and unjust, Xiong Wencan, if you want to use our Guan Ningjun as your stepping stone, don't blame us for taking you as a vote!" ”
"Uncle, what do you mean?"
"Liu Cheng has already taken the Beijing Division, then he is the official army, Xiong Wencan indiscriminately kills the generals, and leads the East to respect himself, then he is a thief! We took refuge in Liu Cheng and crusaded against Xiong Wencan, which is a good reputation! Wu Sangui whipped his mount: "After you and I return to Luocheng, we will immediately send someone to ask Yue Tuo to surrender, and then return to the division to attack Shanhaiguan!" Xiong Wencan, this idiot, killed so many of us, he must pay the price! ”
"Yes, you must make him pay!" Zu Kuan responded.
Fu Ningwei
"Oh? Kill the generals of the Guanning Army? I didn't expect Xiong Wencan to have this ability and courage, but I underestimated him? Liu Cheng shook the silk book in his hand and said with a smile: "If he could do such a thing ten days earlier, he would still be able to cause me some trouble!" It's a pity that everything else can be reversed, only time is gone. Yue Tuo! ”
"The last general!" Yue Tuo hurriedly came out of the line and saluted.
"Dordo once shot me, and Dolgon killed Huang Taiji, the biological father of my righteous son Fulin, these two are so heinous that they must die!" Liu Cheng said word by word: "In addition to the original men and horses under your command, I will give you another infantry battalion, twelve eighteen-pounder cannons, you supervise Wu Sangui, Zu Kuan and other Guanning troops who have surrendered, and your father is in the north and south, be sure not to let go of these two people, understand?" ”
"Yes!"
"After doing this mission, your father Daishan is not too young, so he relieved himself of the military power and came to be a patriarch! As for you—" Liu Cheng paused slightly: "Gwanghae-jun is old, blind, and has no son, so you will go to be his prime minister, guard Korea for me, and prepare for the affairs of the Wa Kingdom." When I finish the affairs of the Ming Kingdom, I will cross the sea to cut down the Japanese, you are my vanguard, after taking the Japanese Kingdom, I will take half of the Shikoku Island as your fiefdom, how about it? ”
Yue Tuo's body trembled slightly, he has been under Liu Cheng for some time, and he knows very well that this person has a monopoly on power, and that power is nothing more than concentrated in the advisory group around him, that is, in the Senate, he was able to enter the Senate before, like Zhao Wende, Ma Ziyi, Chesang, and Ahmat, all of whom were Liu Cheng's cronies, Dai Shan was the first among the Jurchens to enter the Senate, Liu Cheng told himself that these were undoubtedly telling himself that as long as he worked hard, the future was definitely bright, as for killing Dolgon and Duoduo, the two flesh-and-blood relatives, This is nothing at all for the Aixin Jueluo family, which has long been accustomed to the cannibalism of father and son. Thinking of this, he hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you for the king's grace, the last general will definitely dedicate the heads of the two thieves, Dorgon and Dord, to the king's rank!" ”
"Hmm!" Liu Cheng nodded with satisfaction, motioned for Yue Tuo to stand up, tapped his palm and said, "Serve the wine!" ”
The maids rushed in from outside the door, placing a golden cup full of wine in front of everyone, and a spherical object beside Liu Cheng. Liu Cheng stood up, picked up the object, and gently flicked it, and the ball spun rapidly: "This thing is called a globe, and it is a creation of the Taixi people." The Mongols, Jurchens, Han Chinese, Wa people, and Taixi people all live on a huge ball, the Taixi people call it the earth, this globe is made in imitation of the earth, our current location is here, and Liaodong only has such a small piece! When Liu Cheng said this, he stretched out his finger and clicked on the globe, and gently drew a small circle.
The generals were in an uproar, for everyone present, what Liu Cheng said was tantamount to a fantasy, he stretched out his right hand and pressed it down, signaling the generals to calm down: "Do you think what I just said is nonsense?" Do you think of looking at a distant ship on the seashore, but first you see the mast of the ship? Isn't it also on the grassland to see the tip of the flag first, and then see the people and horses? How could this be if the ground beneath our feet wasn't a giant ball? ”
Hearing Liu Cheng say this, everyone nodded after thinking about it, and Gesang smiled: "Lord Jinong didn't say it, I didn't expect it, this is really the case!" ”
"Wave the flag!" Liu Cheng smiled and said: "Yue Tuo is your descendant, but I gave him the fief first, are you not convinced?" ”
Hao Shaoqi stood behind Liu Cheng with a knife, and when he was suddenly asked this question, he couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "There is no such thing, the last general only wants to follow the king in this life and this life, and would rather not be a fief." ”
"Wave the flag! Your words are bad, you look at how vast the globe is, in the future, we will expand the territory, how can I Liu Cheng monopolize it? I have no brothers, and even if I have children, I need a branch party to protect me, so who can I trust but those of you who are fighting for me? The reason why I gave it to Yue Tuo first, but not to you, is because Yue Tuo was born in a Jurchen nobleman and already knew how to govern the people. And waving the flag, you are from a humble background, and it is a good hand to fight immediately, and it will not work to govern the people when you get off the horse, if you rashly give you a fief, it will harm you! Speaking of this, Liu Cheng turned to the others and said: "Most of you are from outside the Saiwai, you must know that the Han land is very different from the outside of the Saiwai, you can get it immediately, you can't rule it immediately, although you can also hand over political affairs to the civil servants." But there are few loyal and trustworthy people in the world, and there are many treacherous villains, if they have power in their hands, they will favor personal interests and bad public affairs, and over time they will bring disaster. Therefore from tomorrow you will choose wise and honest men from among your children and grandchildren, and come to me to study and learn, and if you have a fief in the future, you will not be deceived by the traitors. ”
Most of the generals under Liu Cheng's command had a simple personality, and after hearing these words, they couldn't help but be grateful, and bowed down and said in unison: "The king is gracious, it is difficult for my generation to repay it!" ”
"Get up!" Liu Cheng raised his glass and said: "You help me achieve great things, I hope that your children and grandchildren can also become my children and grandchildren's wings and arms, and share the wealth!" ”
"Thank you, King Houen!" The generals raised their wine glasses together, and dozens of golden cups were raised together, and the aroma of wine overflowed, shining brightly in the light.
After drinking the wine, Yue Tuo came out of the account, and his mood was very complicated, both the vision of a bright future, and the fear of Liu Cheng's wrist, although the words that Liu Cheng said sounded simple, but in fact, they were very interesting. Ordering Yue Tuo and Dai Shan's father and son to kill Duoduo and Dolgon brothers, one can borrow a knife to kill, and the other can also drive a wedge into the Jurchens, in any case, the Dolgon brothers are also Dai Shan's own brothers, Yue Tuo's own uncle, such cannibalism is undoubtedly very damaging to the prestige of their father and son among the Jurchens. Later, he was asked to go to Korea to be the prime minister of Gwanghaejun, preparing to pass through Japan, which sounded like letting him be in charge, but in fact he was squeezed out of the inner circle of Liu Cheng's group, after all, in Yue Tuo's view, conquering the Ming Dynasty is the top priority in the future, and navigating Japan is just a pretext. As for what Liu Cheng said next, it can dispel the resentment of his old subordinates, motivate his fighting spirit, and let him send his son to him is tantamount to providing hostages, which is equivalent to killing three birds with one stone.
"It's really a powerful person, no wonder Uncle Eight will lose at his hands!" Yue Tuo shook his head, but he was not too depressed, after all, he was now a member of Liu Cheng's group, the more powerful Liu Cheng was, the brighter the future of this group, and the more benefits he could share, whether it was to be the actual lord of North Korea, or the fief of half of Sikoku Island, as long as it could be cashed in, it would still be quite a good reward. He clenched his fists and whispered to himself, "It looks like it's time to work harder, the first step is to take down the heads of Duoduo and Dorgon!" ”
Shanhaiguan, Xiluo City.
Wu Sangui stood on the city wall, nervously inspecting the preparations for defense. Different from the world-famous first pass in the world, Xiluo City is a small city located on the inner side of Shanhaiguan, which was built in the first year of Chongzhen after Huang Taiji broke the border, in order to prevent the Houjin army from attacking Shanhaiguan City from the inside, but it was built of rammed earth, the city wall was thin and short, and there were no residents in the city. After Wu Sangui and Zu Kuan escaped from Guancheng, they tightened their defenses, built many forts on the city walls, and placed firearms in case of Xiong Wencan's attack.
"Uncle Chang, is there any movement over there in Shanhaiguan?" Zu Kuan asked from behind.
"Not yet, but the movement is quite frequent!" Wu Sangui turned his head and saw that Zu Kuan's eyes were full of bloodshots, knowing that the other party might not have slept well, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Kuan, why don't you go and rest for a while, look at your face is not too good!" ”
