King Lu is often a fang, and the nephew of Shenzong is also a virtuous man. "It can be lawful, but it is also true.

Ma Shiyingqian, the governor of Fengyang, discussed with Ruan Dacheng, presided over the establishment of the king of blessing, and consulted the law, but the law could not be told in seven.

Chapter 147

If Yang Lian maintained his loyalty as a courtier until his death, then for Shi Kefa, he was a relatively capable existence. Pinshu.com

But coincidentally, although Shi Kefa is said to be a member of the Ming army, the military ability between him and Tianxiang does not seem to be very good.

In Shi Kefa's life, Shi Kefa led the army to fight many times, and was demoted or even killed in defeat many times.

Zhang Jiashi knows very well that Shi Kefa is a loyal minister to history rather than a capable general.

In the "History of the Ming Dynasty" compiled in the Qing Dynasty, there is a separate "biography" of Shi Kefa:

Shi Kefa, the word Xianzhi, Daxing nationality, auspicious people. 100 households in the world. Zu Yingyuan was raised in the township, and the official Huang Ping knew the state, and there was a favorable government. Yu Qizi's son said: "My family will be prosperous." "From the quality of his wife Yin's body, Meng Tianxiang entered his house, and he was born in law. Filial piety. In the first year of Chongzhen, he was awarded the official of Xi'an Mansion, and the head of the household department was slightly moved.

In eight years, he moved to the right senate and guarded Chizhou and Taiping. In the autumn, Prime Minister Lu Xiangsheng begged for thieves. He was changed to the deputy envoy of the law, patrolling Anqing and Chizhou, and supervising the armies of Jiangbei. Huangmei thieves plundered Song, Qianshan, Taihu Lake, and will commit Anqing, which can be pursued by the law in Qianshan Paradise Village. Next year, Zu Kuan broke the thief Chuzhou, and the thief went to Henan. In December, the thief horse guarded Luo Rucai and Li Wanqing from Yunyang to the east. But Fachi is stationed in Taihu Lake and chokes the brunt. In the first month of the tenth year, the thief broke through the Anqing stone plaque from the middle road and moved Tongcheng. The general Pan Ke struck away the thief, and the thief was strangled by the Lu and Feng army, returned to Tongcheng, and plundered the four realms. Chen Erming, the county magistrate, guards the city, and can be punished and arrested. The thief walked the Lujiang River and committed the hidden mountain, but the law and Zuo Liangyu defeated the Fengxiangyi, and the thief was the hidden mountain and Taihu Mountain. In March, Ke Da and his deputy general Cheng Long were defeated and killed in Susong. The thieves divided their party into a battalion, and the eight battalions were more than 200,000 people, divided into Liantan, Shijing, and Tao Chong in Tongcheng. The chief military officer Mu Shou and Liu Liangzuo defeated the trailer river.

When it was, Shaanxi Kou gathered in Zhang, Ning, and divided into Min, Tao, Qin, Chu, Ying, and Anhui, and the bandits were all over the field. Prime Minister Lu Xiangsheng was changed to Governor Xuan and Da, replaced by Wang Jiazhen, and the foreign soldiers of Zukuanguan also returned to the north. In a few days, Xiong Can replaced Jiazhen and took care of the thief. The thieves are reckless, and the north and south of the river are shocked. In July, he was promoted to the imperial history of the right capital of France, and the governors of the four prefectures of Anqing, Luzhou, Taiping, and Chizhou, as well as Guangzhou, Guangshan, Gushi, and Luotian in Henan, Qizhou, Guangji, and Huangmei in Huguang, and Dehua and Hukou counties in Jiangxi, supervised military affairs, and set up 10,000 soldiers. The thieves have fallen east to Hezhou, Hanshan, Dingyuan, and Liuhe, committing Tianchang and Xuyi, and tending to Henan. It can be exempted from being rented by the disaster. In winter, the general Wang Yunfeng defeated the thief and hid in the mountain, and the Beijing army returned to Shucheng and Lujiang after breaking the old man, and the thief escaped into the mountain. Tang Kaiyuan, the supervisor of the army, was good at fighting thieves, but the law galloped east-west, and the thieves avoided them slightly. In the summer of the eleventh year, he overdue, and he was guilty of meritorious service.

But the law is short and concise, with a black face and bright eyes. Honesty, and hard work. In the military, the soldiers do not eat first if they are not full, and they do not give clothes first, so they have the strength to die. Defeated the thieves Yingshan and Liuhe in a row, and the king of Shuntian begged to surrender. In the summer of the twelfth year, Ding went with difficulty. Serve the ruffle, the right waiter of the starting department and the right to the imperial history. On behalf of Zhu Dadian, the governor of Caoyun, the governor of Fengyang, Huai'an, and Yangzhou, impeached and dismissed three people from the grain road, and added one person from Caochu Road, Dajun Nanhe, and Caozheng Dali. Worship the Nanjing Military Department Shangshu, Counselor Maintenance. Due to the long-term relaxation of military preparations, the performance of the update of eight things.

What can be seen from this paragraph is that Shi Kezhi's army does have a set, and it was once the king of Shuntian, who defeated one of the "thirteen families and seventy-two battalions".

But there is no doubt that although King Shuntian is among the "Thirteen Families and Seventy-two Battalions", King Shuntian ranks last: thirteen peasant rebel armies such as King Gaochuang at the end of the Ming Dynasty. In the eighth year of Chongzhen, the leaders of the peasant army gathered in Xingyang. There are thirteen of them that are powerful. Namely, Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Ma Shouying, Luo Rucai, He Yilong, He Jin, Xu Chang, Li Wanqing, Ma Jinzhong, Hui Dengxiang, Hengtian Wang, Nine Dragons, Shuntian Wang.

It is conceivable that Shi Kefa's defeat of King Shuntian is not strictly a too prominent feat.

......

On the fourth day of April of the seventeenth year, he heard that the thief had committed a crime, and swore to be the king of Qin. Crossing the river and arriving at Pukou, he heard that the northern capital had fallen, and his clothes were mourned. Huinan Du discussed the establishment of the monarch, Zhang Shenyan, Lu Daqi, Jiang Yueguang and others said: "Fu Wang Yousong, Shenzong Sun Ye, Lun Xuan should be established, and there are seven can't: greed, lewdness, alcoholism, unfilial piety, abuse, not studying, and interfering with Yousi." King Lu is often a fang, and the nephew of Shenzong is also a virtuous man. "It can be lawful, but it is also true. Ma Shiyingqian, the governor of Fengyang, discussed with Ruan Dacheng, presided over the establishment of the king of blessing, and consulted the law, but the law could not be told in seven. And Shiying has already sent troops with Huang Degong, Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zeqing, and Gao Jie to send Fu Wang Zhiyizhen, so Kefa and others welcome the king. In the first day of May, the king visited the tomb of filial piety, the first hall, and went out of the garrison mansion. The ministers entered the court, and the king wanted to avoid it. Kefa said: "The king should not avoid it, but should accept it justly." "Both the dynasty and the war are defended. Kefa said: "Wang Yisu served the suburbs, sent a teacher to the north, and showed the world the righteousness of revenge." "Wang Weiwei. Tomorrow, he will go to court again and supervise state affairs. Zhang Shenyan said: "The country is empty and there is no one, but it will be a big position." Kefa said: "The survival of the prince is uncertain, what if he comes south?" Sincerity Bo Liu Kongzhao said: "Today is set, who dares to revert?" Kefa said: "Xu Zhi." "It's a retreat. Tomorrow, the king will supervise the country, the court will push the ministers, and the people will be able to do the law, Gao Hongtu, and Jiang Yueguang. Kong Zhao wanted to tie his arms, and everyone thought that there were no ministers in this dynasty to enter the cabinet and curb it. Kong Zhao said angrily: "Even if I can't, why can't Ma Shiying?" discussed the abolition again, and pushed Zheng Sanjun, Liu Zongzhou, and Xu Shiqi. Kong Zhao raised Dacheng, but the law said: "The first emperor decided to reverse the case, and there is no need to say more." "On the second day of the Yue, the scholar of the Ministry of Rites and the scholar of the East Pavilion University, and Shiying and Hongtu were ordered together. Kefa is still in charge of the military department, and Shiying is still supervising Fengyang. It is the camp system of Dingjing, such as the story of the northern capital, the guards and the brocade guards are all enlisted in the army. The two chambers in the east and west of Jinyi, as well as the officials in the north and south towns, are not prepared to prevent informants and reassure people's hearts.

When it was, Shi Ying was eager to enter the picture. and ordered, furious, to be the king of the seven unbookables. And to support the troops to enter the Hajj, the table is to go. But the law then invited the superintendent to go out of the town Huai and Yang. On the fifteenth day the king ascended the throne. Tomorrow, His Majesty can resign, add the prince Taibao, change the military department of Shangshu, Wuyingdian University scholar. Shiying thought that it was a day to enter the straight, and it was agreed to divide Jiangbei into four towns. Dongpingbo Liu Zeqing has jurisdiction over Huai and Hai, stationed in Huaibei, and manages Shandong 1st Road. Gao Jie, the chief military officer, has jurisdiction over Xu and Si, and is stationed in Surabaya, and the manager is open and returning. Liu Liangzuo, the chief military officer, was in charge of Feng and Shou, stationed in Linhuai, and the manager was Chen and Qi all the way. Jingnan Bo Huang has the merit to govern Chu and He, stationed in Luzhou, and the manager is Guang and Gu Yiyi. Kefa started to go, that is, to send an envoy to visit the palace of Emperor Zi and the two princes of Daxing, and was ordered to sacrifice to the two tombs of Feng and Si.

But the law goes, Shiying and Kong Zhao have nothing to fear. Kong Zhao raised Wu Fu with cautious words, uproared the palace, and drew his sword to chase cautious words. But Fachi can be relieved, and Kong Zhaoshu doesn't need it. But after the second mausoleum was completed, he said: "Your Majesty practiced the beginning of the tomb, only the filial piety mausoleum, wept and mourned, and the road was moved." If you bow to the second tomb, you will see Si and Fenghao Lai, and the chickens and dogs are silent, and you should be sad and angry. May prudence be the same as the beginning, in the deep palace and the vast building, then think about the soul of the Northeast Tombs; enjoy the jade food, then think about the Northeast Tombs of the wheat rice without exhibition; if you want to be punished, then you will remember the first emperor's collection of wood and decay, why you are in danger of dying; in the early dynasty, you will read the first emperor's thrift and diligence, why you died in the great cause. Trembling and vigorous, there is no time to slack off, and the two ancestors will be silently blessed. If Yan is located in the southeast, he does not think about the future, the virtuous and treacherous are indistinguishable, the authority is not effective, the old man is a hairpin, the heroic man is bound, the ancestors are resentful, the destiny of heaven is subtle, and the southeast corner can not be guaranteed. Wang Jia replied.

Degong, Zeqing, and Jie strive to be stationed in Yangzhou. Jie arrived first, killing and plundering, and the corpses were all over the field. The city is afraid, the mountain is defended, and the moon is attacked. Zeqing also plundered. Linhuai did not accept the Liangzuo army, and was also attacked. The fate can be solved, and Degong, Liangzuo, and Zeqing all obey orders. Nai Yijie. Jie Su is afraid of the law, but the law can come, Jie dug ten hundred nights and buried the wreckage. As soon as the day comes, the rhetoric has changed, and the sweat is profuse. Kefa treated it with great affection, and then took the favor with gentle words, and Jie was overjoyed. Ran Jie is also easy to law, using his own armor to defend, and he must take it before acting. But the law is sparse, and the crowd is in Guazhou, and Jie is very happy. Jie goes, Yangzhou is safe, but the law is to open Yangzhou.

In June, the Qing soldiers defeated the thief Li Zicheng, and Zicheng abandoned the Beijing division and went west. The counties and counties of Qingzhou fought to kill the puppet officials and protect themselves according to the city. The law can ask for the issuance of two edicts to supervise the country and ascend to the pole to comfort the hearts of the military and people in Shandong and Hebei. Open the Lixian Pavilion, recruit talents from all directions, and use the supervisor and discipline to promote the official Ying Tingji to lead his affairs. In August, he patrolled Huai'an, and read Ze Qingshima. Return to Yangzhou, please pay for enterprising capital. Shi Yingjin doesn't make it, but the law can be interesting. Because of the saying: "The talents of the people are depleting day by day, the career is becoming confused, the reputation is won and the real intention is not cultivated, there are many discussions and few successes." Now the situation is even more different than before, and the Lord will seek revenge on the thief. There is no discussion about raising troops and salaries, and there are no talents in raising salaries. Those who pick up superficial talk and skillfully camp Chinese important people will be punished without forgiveness!" Wang You replied.

At the beginning, Yu Jie was able to defend himself, and he was able to defend against it. September Shuo, meritorious, jie constructs soldiers, and Qu Zaijie. Lai Kefa adjusts, and the matter is solved. The northern capital surrendered the thieves and the ministers returned to the south, but the law said: "The ministers who are originally from the north should be ordered to go to the officials and the second department of the soldiers to be hired, otherwise they may not return to the south." He also said: "In the change of the northern capital, all the courtiers are guilty." Those who are in the north should die, and those who are in the south are not human ministers? That is, the ministers can be in the south of the law, and the ministers are Ying and serve as the governor of Feng, but they cannot know that the southeast is going to the north to help, and the townsmen Zeqing and Jie are not supported by their troops, so they turn south and go south. It is the first person who should be represented, and the subordinate is also guilty. It is because of the succession of the Holy Ming, the Yan is not added, and the grace is stacked. And only in the northern ministers Mao Ju and generalized the rope, how can he scatter the rank and idle Cao, and the blame is heavy on the south hub and Feng Duzai. It is advisable to remove those who have committed significant crimes, and give a heavy punishment as an example. If the false life is not defiled, and the body is tortured, you can ignore it. Those who fled from the north and wandered to the north came later, and promised to be guilty of thieves, and went to the courtiers to use them at their discretion. "The court deliberated and followed.

Jie lives in Yangzhou, very rebellious. The law can be open and honest, and lead to the righteousness of the monarch and the minister. Jie Da felt and was constrained. In October, Jie Shuai's division marched north. Kefa went to Qingjiangpu and sent officials to Tuntian Kaifeng, which was the original plan of the strategy. The towns divide the flood land, from the Wangjiaying to the north to Suqian, the most rushing, can be the law of self-reliance, build the south bank of the edge of the river. On November 4, Zhoucihe Town, spy reported that our Qing troops had entered Suqian. Kefa advanced to the Baiyang River and ordered Liu Zhaoji, the chief military officer, to come to the rescue. The Qing soldiers also attacked Pizhou, and Zhaoji reinforced, and they were relieved for half a month.

In terms of content, Shi Kefa is afraid of the four towns in Jiangbei with heavy troops, and his Gao Jie is especially obvious. It's just that there is a reason for this:

In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Gao Jie led Yangzhou and garrisoned outside the city, Gao Jie insisted on entering the city, and the people of Yangzhou were afraid that Gao Jie would not let them in. Gao Jie attacked the city and robbed the women of the countryside every day, and the local people hated him even more.

The prefect Ma Minglu and the official Tang Laihe stubbornly defended for more than a month. Gao Jie knew that he couldn't beat it, so he was a little disheartened. Shi Kefa of the cabinet planned to give Guazhou to Gao Jie, so he stopped the siege. In September, the imperial court ordered Gao Jie to move to Xuzhou, and let Zuo Yunwei Yin also serve as the military department to supervise his army's western expedition against thieves. The bandit Cheng Jikong from Xuzhou was captured and sent to Jingshi, where he escaped when Li Zicheng was in rebellion. In December, Gao Jie captured him and beheaded him. The imperial court then named Gao Jie as the crown prince and concubine, and Yin Feng a son became an official as a hereditary brocade servant.

At first, the superintendent Shi Kefa was worried that Gao Jie was arrogant and unreasonable and difficult to subdue, so he asked Huang Degong to garrison Yizhen and secretly contain Gao Jie's forces. It just so happened that Huang Fei, the chief soldier of Denglai, was about to go to his post. Huang Fei and Huang Degong have the same surname and are called brothers, so he wrote to Huang Degong asking him to send some troops to prevent accidents.

Huang Dequan led 300 cavalry from Yangzhou to Gaoyou to meet him, and Gao Jie's lieutenant Hu Maozhen Pegasus reported to Gao Jie. Gao Jie has always been jealous of merit, and he suspects that he wants to calculate himself. So on the way, he laid an ambush of the elite soldiers to stop them. Huang Degong walked to the earthen bridge and was about to bury the pot to make rice, Gao Jie's ambush came unexpectedly, Huang Degong's horse was ready to fight with an iron whip, the flying arrows were as dense as rain, Huang Degong's horse fell to the ground, and he rode away on someone else's horse. A brave cavalryman brandished a lance and rushed towards Degong, Huang Degong shouted and turned back to fight, grabbed his lance and pulled him into his arms, and pulled him to the ground with men and horses. He killed dozens more, and then he turned and jumped into the ruined wall, and his roar was like thunder and lightning, and his pursuers did not dare to come, so he rode his horse and galloped back to the main army. While there was a battle here, Gao Jie sent troops to attack Yizhen secretly, and Huang Degong's soldiers were seriously injured. The three hundred cavalry who accompanied him to Gaoyou were all killed. So Huang Degong complained to the imperial court and expressed his willingness to fight Gao Jie to the death.

Kefa sent the overseer Wan Wan Ji to reconcile them, but he did not agree. At this time, his mother died, and Shi Kefa came to mourn and said to him: "In the battle of Tuqiao, no matter whether you are smart or stupid, you know that Gao Jie is wrong." Now the general suppressed the anger in his heart because of the country, and let Gao Jie bear the charge, this is the time when the general will gain a great name in the world!" Huang Degong's face gradually softened, after all, he was still annoyed because his own people had been killed too much.

Shi Kefa ordered Gao Jie to compensate his war horse, and took out 1,000 taels of silver as the funeral expenses of his meritorious mother. Huang Degong had no choice but to obey Shi Kefa's mediation.

It can be seen from the content that although Shi Kefa is afraid of the four towns of Jiangbei, he is not an incompetent person, on the contrary, Shi Kefa is very aware of the importance of the stability of the four towns of Jiangbei to the defense of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

It's just that it backfired, and soon after, Gao Jie died, and finally the four towns of Jiangbei that Shi Kefa had painstakingly maintained gradually collapsed:

In the first month of the first year of Hongguang, Gao Jie arrived in Guide and planned to recover. The chief soldier Xu Dingguo was stationed in Suizhou at the time, and some people say that he secretly sent his son across the river.

Gao Jie summoned Xu Dingguo to come to the rendezvous, but Xu Dingguo ignored him. Gao Jie invited Governor Yue Qijie, Governor Chen Qianfu and Yuan Shu of Suiyang Dao to Suizhou together, and Xu Dingguo went to the suburbs to greet him. Yue Qijie and Yuan Shu persuaded Gao Jie not to enter the city, but Gao Jie despised Xu Dingguo, did not listen to Yue Qijie's words, and entered the city.

On the eleventh day of the first month, Xu Dingguo set up a banquet to entertain Gao Jie in the mansion of Yuan Keli, the secretary of the military department of the late Ming Dynasty. When Gao Jie was drunk, he limited the time for Xu Dingguo to send troops, and implicitly mentioned the matter of sending his son. Xu Dingguo was even more suspicious, and he had no intention of leaving Suizhou. Gao Jie resolutely urged him to send troops, Xu Dingguo was annoyed, and laid an ambush at night and shouted artillery. Yue Qijie, Yuan Shu and others persuaded Gao Jie not to listen, and left Suizhou for Jinling a day in advance.

Gao Jie was drunk, and after the battle, he lay down in the military tent and did not get up, and a group of soldiers took him to Dingguo and killed him.

Before this, Gao Jie thought that Xu Dingguo was leaving Suizhou, so he sent all his troops to defend Kaifeng, and there were only a few dozen soldiers left around him. Xu Dingguo pretended to be very deferential to him, chose many prostitutes to wait for Gao Jie, and used two prostitutes to sleep with his soldiers.

His own soldiers were all drunk, and when they heard the sound of the cannons, they wanted to get up, and they were dragged by two prostitutes and couldn't get out, and they all died. The next day, Gao Jie's troops arrived, captured Suizhou City, and killed the old, weak, sick and sick in the city, leaving no one behind. The precious collection of paintings and calligraphy in Yuan Shangshu's mansion was destroyed. Xu Dingguo led his troops across the river to surrender to the Qing Dynasty.
