055 King of Nishikawa
Just when Li Zicheng and Dolgon were preparing to swallow the south of the Yangtze River, Zhang Xianzhong, who was far away in the mountains and mountains of Sichuan, also planned to show his fists and feet, since he was defeated by Zuo Liangyu, the general soldier of Wuchang in Huguang for three years, he escaped here, because the scale of the Ming Dynasty's troops in the Central Plains and the north is getting larger and larger, coupled with the difficulty of the Sichuan Road, the bandits entered Sichuan, and the Ming court had no time to take care of it.
Gradually, Zhang Xianzhong, who was almost wiped out by the Ming army, began to take root in the paradise-like Sichuan land, which was three years, and gradually became a climate.
Today's Zhang Xianzhong has changed shotguns for guns, from more than 10,000 remnants of the defeated generals when he entered Sichuan to nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses.
The granary is full.
In Chengdu Mansion, Zhang Xianzhong built luxurious palace buildings, forced thousands of folk women to enrich his harem beauties, for the people of Sichuan, it was life and death in his thoughts, and he became the veritable king of Xichuan.
Zhang Xianzhong saw that after his wings were growing, he was complacent, his ambition swelled rapidly, and he was planning to go out of Sichuan to emulate the Han Gaozu Gaobang and go out of Sichuan to level the world, but he didn't expect a news to come, which made him so angry that he waved his knife on the spot and beheaded the soldiers who came to report the news.
This news is nothing else, it is the death of Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng called the emperor in Beijing, the founding of the country, Zhang Xianzhong heard how to make him angry, thinking that this Li Zicheng was just the lord of the world who rebelled with himself, when Li Zicheng was beaten by Hong Chengchou and there were still eighteen horsemen left, if it wasn't for him Zhang Xianzhong who wanted to help, then Li Zicheng would have buried himself in Shangluo Mountain, where is there still today's majesty.
Zhang Xianzhong thought, if you want to talk about the king in the world, it has to be my 'Eight Kings' Zhang Xianzhong, good you Li Zicheng, while I was accumulating strength in Sichuan, you grabbed this first move, I have to find you to settle this account.
In fact, it was four months after Zhang Xianzhong received the news that Li Zicheng was proclaimed emperor, and at this time the Central Plains were all made into a pot of porridge.
In the splendid palace of the king of Daxi, Zhang Xianzhong wore a python dragon robe, a self-made thirteen spike crown on his head, and walked to the emperor's throne step by step under the support of the ministers.
Today is the big day for him to ascend the throne and become emperor, if nothing else, just a sentence, what is the Son of Heaven? The soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, you Li Zicheng can sit in the world, why can't I Zhang Xianzhong.
The spacious and bright hall rises, the red hanging color, the majestic ceremonial music mixed with the solemn chime sound music endlessly, outside the palace it is a forest of soldiers and armor, thousands of palace ladies dance in the square outside the palace, the whole scene is magnificent.
After Zhang Xianzhong grinned widely, laughed pretentiously and sat firmly on the dragon chair, inside and outside the hall, the sound of long live the mountain vibrated for several miles.
Zhang Xianzhong laughed, he was so proud, he didn't expect that he couldn't recognize a basket of people with big words, but he also had a day when he would reign in the world, although this Great Western Dynasty was only a corner of Xichuan, but this dragon chair was really pressed under his ass.
Zhang Xianzhong waved his hand and motioned to his ministers to read out the edict of the Son of Heaven of the Great Western Kingdom, since he was on the throne of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, it was natural that these generals under him would also be stained.
Of course, although it is self-established and called the emperor, but Xichuan can be good at recruiting and strategizing, but all those who have some ability are almost cleaned by Zhang Xianzhong's intolerant heart, saying that it is the newly sealed Manchu Dynasty civil and military, in fact, eight out of ten are the generals he brought from Ganshan, all of them are a group of military generals, so the establishment of the Great Western Kingdom almost completely copied the Ming Dynasty's rules and regulations, and even the name of the official system was not changed, which also saved trouble.
Wang Zhaolin, the first left prime minister of the Great Western Kingdom, went out of the hundred officials to show the yellow scroll and read it out loud in public, "The Emperor of Daxi, that is, the imperial edict: the edict said, I am the only king of China, since the Ming Dynasty is unified, Huanghuang Huaxia, the soldiers are not stopped, and those who covet the artifact are like the carp crossing the river, but the clown who jumps the beam can not prosper China's prosperity, and the flies and dogs can not open the territory of thousands of miles. Daxi country on the will of heaven, under the spirit of the ancestors, in the world to chase the deer, the emperor of the west to the west, then into this Xichuan foundation, today, the emperor burned incense to tell the sky, the founding of the country, in the west of the country Xijing (Chengdu) that is, the emperor's throne, the name of the country, change the Yuan Dashun, amnesty to the world, favor the people, since the date of the edict, hope that the world's hundred officials and subjects perform their duties, support the Holy Lord, open the foundation of the world, share the peace and prosperity, the first year of the Great West Kingdom of Dashun July 18. ”
…………
(Those who don't understand the above enthronement edict can skip it, it doesn't affect the plot of the book, this kind of thing is similar to each emperor when he ascends the throne, touting himself and getting the throne is not right, etc., the officials don't need to delve into it)
…………
Prime Minister Zuo finished reading it in one breath, turned around and bowed to Zhang Xianzhong on the dragon chair, and exclaimed, "Long live, long live, long live!" ”
The ministers chanted with the contract, kneeling three times and knocking nine times.
Zhang Xianzhong happily stroked the long beard on his chin, patted his thighs, and spoke rough words, saying the Sichuan dialect he had just learned a few words, "Okay, Ge Laozi, I Zhang Xianzhong also has today, get up, you, continue to read"
"Thank you, Lord Longen......!"
Zuo Prime Minister Wang Zhaolin stood up, put down the enthronement edict, took out another roll of yellow silk, glanced at the hundreds of officials in the court, and said loudly, "The generals will be sealed!" ”
Hundreds of people knelt down outside the hall, and their faces were full of joy.
Wang Zhaolin read aloud, "Add Sun Kewang as the king of Pingdong, award Pingdong general, and lead 19 battalions of military horses."
A person who looked like a white scholar bowed down when he heard this, "Thank you, Father!" ”
"Crowned Liu Wenxiu as the king of Anxi, awarded the general of Anxi, and led the sixteen battalions of military horses"
Liu Wenxiu, who is eight feet tall and has a tiger's back, praised, "Thank you, father! ”
"Crowned Ainengqi as the king of Dingbei, awarded the general of Dingbei, and led 20 battalions of military horses"
Ai Nengqi, with a horizontal face, and a two-inch-long scar on his left eyebrow, gave people a majestic momentum, and he laughed dryly, "Thank you, father!" ”
The entire Great Western Army is divided into 1,200, each battalion is about 5,000 people, in addition to the 55 battalions led by Zhang Xianzhong, there is also an old battalion, and Zhang Xianzhong personally commands nearly 70 battalions.
At one time, the court of the Great Western Dynasty was a big general, Zhang Xianzhong divided more than 20 kings and more than 100 marquis in one breath, and sent officials to all parts of the Sichuan region, anyway, as long as it is today, as long as the people who did not die on the battlefield at the beginning, they all got rewards, and it was really a harmonious atmosphere, and the monarchs and ministers were happy.
What's interesting here is that in order to disgust Li Zicheng's Dashun Dynasty, Zhang Xianzhong actually took the name of the first year of his Daxi Kingdom as Dashun, Daxi Kingdom, the first year of Dashun, Zhang Xianzhong is the emperor, and he now wants to know what kind of expression Li Zicheng will have when he hears this year name.
Just when everyone was silent in the atmosphere of a person who had attained the Tao and ascended to heaven, Zhang Xianzhong suddenly slapped the dragon case, stood up and said loudly, "Lao Tzu is the emperor, and now the first edict of the Son of Heaven is issued, and the people will listen to the order."
The military generals in the Manchu Dynasty all knelt down, all wondering in their hearts, and their faces showed a look of panic, why did Emperor Zhang seem to have a temper again, this is a big deal, Emperor Zhang is angry, how many heads will fall to the ground, but on this day of enthronement, he shouldn't kill on a big scale.
Zhang Xianzhong patted his round stomach and said, "It's too stingy to be an emperor in Xichuan, the people of the world don't know, Liu Bei was the emperor in Xichuan, and the first edict issued by the Son of Heaven was to conquer Wu State, today, Lao Tzu is also going to lead troops out of Sichuan, and in one fell swoop, Sun Kewang"
Sun Kewang blinked, knelt down and arched his hand, "Erchen is here"
Zhang Xianzhong said, "Lao Tzu worships you to recruit the generalissimo, order 150,000 troops, enter Hanzhong, exterminate the traitor Li Zicheng, and recover the hometown of Ganshan"
"Yes!"
As soon as Sun Kewang's words fell, Liu Wenxiu, the king of Anxi who was kneeling on the side, hurriedly interjected and said, "Father, although I am a soldier and have enough food, there are still people in the country who do not obey the king, since ancient times, if you want to use troops externally, you must first secure the internal realm, and Qin Liangyu, the former Ming female general soldier who is now entrenched in Shiyan, is still a big trouble for my dynasty, my father is the emperor of the world today, why not make a decree to recruit her, and promise that if she is sincerely obedient, she can be crowned a generation of queens, and the world will guard the stone, if she is obsessed, her father can raise troops to fight, and when he stops civil strife, he can only come out together, Conquer the world, no worries"
Sun Kewang saw that the generalissimo in his hand was about to be lost by Liu Wenxiu in a blink of an eye, and said hurriedly, "Qin Pozi relied on the danger of the mountain to shrink in the stone, and he couldn't protect himself, how dare he come to attack, father, Liu Wenxiu is afraid that I will make great contributions, jealous of the virtuous and jealous, and regard state affairs as selfish, this is disloyal, my father is on the throne, and all the people in the world admire it, at this time, we should send troops to show the power of our dynasty, he regards the little female stream as the great enemy of our dynasty, and this depends on where the father and emperor are, is it possible that the Great Western Kingdom is afraid of even a woman who has been half cut into the ground?" She Qin Liangyu is hiding in the mountains, can't she get rid of it for a day, and I can't dominate the world for a day? Father, son, please not take back Hanzhong this time, swear not to return to see the father"
Liu Wenxiu explained, "Big brother, you obviously know that I don't mean this, what selfishness can I have, although Qin Liangyu only has 30,000 white pole soldiers, but his soldiers are all locals, hiding in the mountains, suddenly advancing left and right, floating uncertainly, if she takes advantage of my war against the army outside, what if she raids Chengdu, don't forget, when Jiang Wei led the troops outside the Three Kingdoms, Sun Aiqi's soldiers broke through Chengdu, and killed the Shu Han Foundation in a battle, this person can't be unguarded, I am out of public intentions, for the stability of the Great Western Kingdom, how can I be selfish"
Sun Kewang's face was red, and he couldn't find a reason to argue, so he said loudly, "Bold Liu Wenxiu, you dare to refer to me as the country of Shu Han and the country of peace, does the next sentence say that the father is the queen Liu Chan?" You are a big rebel, your heart can be punished, father, Liu Wenxiu, he ......"
Zhang Xianzhong didn't expect that on the first day of his ascension, the two righteous sons actually quarreled in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, what is this like, he patted the dragon case, glared angrily, "Noisy, noisy hammer, that thief mother-in-law, Lao Tzu is still afraid of her, Nuo big Xichuan has been beaten down, a small stone is very scary, the order, Sun Kewang is the generalissimo of the expedition to the west, leading the army of 150,000, the army enters Hanzhong, and then waving the army to the east, down the river, Ai Nengqi is the generalissimo of the expedition to the east, leading the army of 100,000, sending troops to Huguang, occupying Jingzhou, and the two armies will join forces in Jingzhou, Then they jointly attacked the remnants of the Ming forces and leveled Jiangnan in one fell swoop."
Liu Wenxiu hurriedly said, "Father, the territory is uneasy, the army cannot go on an expedition, so use troops like this, enter the elite of the country, if Qin Liangyu makes a rebellion, how to prevent it?" ”
Zhang Xianzhong's face was displeased, "Shut up, my father has been fighting horses for half his life, why not be afraid of an old woman, give you 30,000 soldiers, and limit you to eliminate this thief within one month."
When Liu Wenxiu heard it, he knew that it was a big trouble, Zhang Xianzhong led the army in Xichuan, which was like a bamboo, hundreds of battles of all sizes, occupying the entire territory of Xichuan, but he couldn't move a little bit of this small stone, last year's 100,000 troops surrounded and suppressed Qin Liangyu's 30,000 people didn't even see the other party's figure, the result was that the labor was fruitless, the waste of money and food, and even more when the army returned in vain, 30,000 white pole soldiers suddenly killed from all directions, only to kill the Great Western Army is all the way back to Chengdu in embarrassment.
Now that this Zhang Xianzhong is healed of his scars and forgotten the pain, when the civil strife was not settled, he was bent on using troops externally, and he gave Liu Wenxiu 30,000 people to deal with those white pole soldiers who were all good in the mountains, isn't this going to die?
But Liu Wenxiu also saw that his father was iron-hearted, and if he insisted on it, he would only invite death, I hope God bless Daxi.
"Erchen takes orders!" Liu Wenxiu reluctantly knelt on the ground to receive the order.
Zhang Xianzhong looked around at the generals and said, "I have led the Chinese army of 200,000, and on the first day of September, the army will go out of Sichuan, and the three armies will hunt Jiangnan and dominate the world."
Towards the lower mountain, he shouted, "Will hunt Jiangnan, dominate the world, long live the Great West Emperor, long live long live!" ”……
To say that this Sichuan general soldier Qin Liangyu is a legendary woman, the husband Ma Qiancheng, after the Han Fubo general, was named the Ming Dynasty as the stone Yan pacification envoy (Tusi), the world shou Shi Yan, after the death of Ma Qiancheng, his son attacked the lord, but too young, by his mother Qin Liangyu on behalf of the officer, Chongzhen seven years, Qin Liangyu led the troops into the king of Jingqin, made great contributions, was named the Sichuan general soldier by Emperor Chongzhen, respected the second grade of the lady, and is also the only female general in Chinese history who can be examined, and the only female general in the history of the Ming Dynasty.
At the head of the Tujia Walled City, Qin Liangyu, who was over sixty years old, held the dragon's head crutches in his hand, his eyes were not dazzled or deaf, he was full of spirit, and his silver hair was fluttering in the wind.
I saw Qin Liangyu's dragon head on the city bricks and slammed it, and said, "I am a horse in the world, the world is favored by the Ming Emperor, and the emperor is in trouble, Zhang Xianzhong's dog thief is the disaster of Xichuan, and he is called the emperor, and the heavens do not tolerate it. ”
"Yes!"
Qin Liangyu's reputation in the Tujia family even surpassed that of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and she gave an order, and the whole army went to death at any time, which is why Zhang Xianzhong took the whole Sichuan, and he never took the stone stone in the small projectile land.
Qin Liangyu looked back at his son beside him, Ma Xianglin, the year before last, when Zhang Xianzhong's soldiers invaded Xichuan, Qin Liangyu sent his son to fight, but unexpectedly, Ma Xianglin took the lead and was blinded by the random arrows of the Great Western Army, leaving her with lifelong regret.
Qin Liangyu said, "Lin'er, the stone land is narrow and the people are poor, you can't hold it with Zhang Thief for a long time, I heard that King Fu was called the emperor in Nanjing, my mother wants to send someone to Nanjing, report the matter here to the court, and ask the court to send reinforcements to suppress Zhang Thief, but this road is high and long, and the mountains are heavy, and you have to go through thousands of difficulties and dangers, and you can't take this great responsibility if you are not a righteous person, so you ...... for your mother."
Ma Xianglin knelt on the ground and said, "Mother, the child is willing to go, and he will never look back if he does not reach Nanjing."
Qin Liangyu nodded reluctantly, "Okay, my son is brave, you have to be more careful when you go, remember, the people of Sichuan are looking forward to the king, you must not bear the trust of the people, you know, the grain and grass here can last for another five months, if it is late......"
"Don't worry, don't worry, my son will definitely rush back before and take 100,000 royal teachers with him"
