Chapter 448: Lianqing Anti-Ming (I)
Wu Xiang is the original Liaodong general soldier, the father of Wu Sangui, the current Liaodong general soldier, Chongzhen four years, the pseudo-Qing soldiers surrounded the Daling River, the imperial court Wu Xiang led the army to help, Wu Xiang actually did not fight before the cowardice, and was the first to flee after arriving at the battlefield, so that the main force of the Ming army was defeated, the Daling River fell, and the Jinzhou Ping Domain fell into the hands of the Dongyu.
Because Wu Xiang's wife and brother Zu Dashou guarded Jinzhou, and the internal relations between the leaders of the Liao army were intertwined, Chongzhen did not dare to deal with Wu Xiang excessively, but dismissed Wu Xiang's duties, and his son Wu Sangui succeeded him as the commander-in-chief of Liaodong.
This Wu Xiang is also a strange person, in the original history, before Li Zicheng entered Shenjing, Chongzhen in desperation awarded Wu Xiang as the commander of the Beijing camp, and wanted to transfer the Guanning army into the guard, once asked Wu Xiang how many soldiers can be available in Liaodong, at the beginning, Wu Xiang said 70,000, about 30,000 people who can fight, and want to transfer troops to raise millions of military salaries.
At that time, the imperial treasury was extremely empty, and the inner treasury only got 300,000 taels of silver, Wu Xiang heard Chongzhen's words and actually changed his words to claim that the Liao army was only 3,000 soldiers, and said to Chongzhen without shame: If the traitor sends himself to death, the courtiers will be captured alive to sacrifice His Majesty! As a result, after Wu Sangui got this batch of silver, he did not get out of Shanhaiguan until the Jingshi was broken by the rebels.
The Jingbei army entered and occupied the Beijing Division, and successively disposed of Chen Yan, a scholar of Dongge University, Wei Zaode, the priest of Guozi, Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo, Chen Xinjia, the secretary of the military department, Zhou Kui, the secretary of the military department, Zhou Kui, the eunuch of Jiading, and Gao Qiqian, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, and reorganized the cabinet.
Wu Xiang didn't care, and said to his wife Zu: "Wu is just a person who seized power and dismissed his post, and he doesn't have much gold and silver at home, and he has no intersection with Chen Xinjia and others. ”
Seeing that Wu Xiang was calm as usual, Zu also let go of his heart, so he had to order the housekeeper to close the door immediately and thank the guests, regardless of the monstrous flood outside.
"Father, it's not good, the new commander of the Jinyi Guard made Ma Sande lead the troops to surround our house, and now he is calling the door, and the escalator is on the wall, only to see the fire outside the house, and the soldiers and horses are afraid that there are not five or six hundred people, how is this good?"
Wu Sanfeng is the eldest son of Wu Xiang, after Wu Xiang was imprisoned in Chongzhen for four years, he has been detained by Chongzhen in Beijing.
"What kind of system is panicking? With your younger brother in Liaodong, how can Zhu Youshu and Li Xingzhi take our old Wu family, you go out with the old man to greet you and see what tricks they play? ”
Looking at Wu Sanfeng, who looked nervous, Wu Xiang was frowning, although he was prepared, he didn't expect the Jingbei Army to come to the door so quickly.
"Wu has seen Ma Shuai, I don't know if Ma Shuai is here, what's the matter?"
Stretching out the head is a knife, shrinking the head is also a knife, Wu Xiang doesn't think that he can block the brocade guards outside with more than a dozen guards in the house, and the middle door is wide open, and he came out with his son Wu Sanfeng.
"General Wu Lao is exempt, the edict of the Son of Heaven authorizes Wu Sangui to be the Marquis of Pingnan, the general army of Beizhili, this marshal is here to follow the order of the prime minister, please ask General Wu to write a letter now, with the edict, immediately lead the army to set off, the new emperor ascends the throne, the prime minister is afraid that there are still Zhu Chunchen and Zhou Kui and other henchmen in the city, and the marshal is specially ordered to come to your mansion to guard."
Ma Sande raised his hand slightly, and described his intention with a smile, his current position is already the commander of the Jinyi Guard of the Ming Dynasty, so he naturally deserves the title of Ma Shuai.
"Well, Wu was born in martial arts, but he is a rough man, I really don't know what the prime minister wants Wu to write, if there is a mistake or omission, wouldn't it be a mistake?"
Ma Sande's intention was obvious, that is, to let himself recruit his son for Li Xingzhi, and as for the transfer of troops to protect his mansion, he was just taking his family of 37 as hostages of the Jingbei Army.
"The throne of the Jingshi has changed, and the prime minister is afraid that Pingnanhou is worried about the safety of General Wu, so General Wu only needs to write a letter to report his safety, come on, quickly prepare pen and paper for General Wu."
"Alas...... Wu writes! ”
Wu Xiang is also a thoughtful person, knowing that letting himself report safety is just to coerce Wu Sangui, if his son does not obey the edict, his family will not be safe, people under the eaves, have to bow their heads, so they have to sigh, pick up the pen and paper sent by the maid and write slowly.
"Sangui Wu'er saw the letter as well, the former King Jingnan army entered the city, in the autumn of the officials and the people did not commit any crimes, the father also lived in the house, the court every rice and grain resources, so everything is fine at home, and I hope that my son will return the edict when he sees it, pay homage to the new emperor, and be sealed by the Marquis of Pingnan, and enter and suppress Li Zhicheng."
Shanhaiguan and Liaodong general troops.
Wu Sangui frowned, holding the letter from his father Wu Xiang and the holy decree of the Yongli Imperial Court to promote himself to the Marquis of Pingnan and the General Army of Northern Zhili.
"You say, what does the court mean by this?"
To tell the truth, Wu Sangui was quite satisfied with the imperial court's promotion to the post of chief soldier of Beizhili and Marquis of Pingnan, but he was suspicious and cunning, and he was afraid that this was Li Xingzhi's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, so he consulted Yang Kun and Guo Zhuangtu and others who were in the general army.
"Don't you think it's weird, big handsome? The old army lord didn't write sooner, didn't write late, but sent it together with the holy decree canonized by the imperial court, and the new Zhongshu Provincial Zuo Prime Minister made it clear that he was mainly coerced by the old army! ”
Yang Kun, as the mastermind of Wu Sangui, immediately guessed what Li Xingzhi meant.
"Dashuai, after the German domain and the Fu domain entered Beijing, the crown prince was abolished and the king was established, the biggest beneficiary is the current Dadu Governor's Mansion Zuo Dudu, the Zuo Prime Minister of Zhongshu Province, now Li Xingzhi has a combination of military and political power, not so much that King Jing is difficult to enter Beijing, it is better to say that the Shandong Army borrowed the name of Zhu Youshu to control the military and political affairs of the imperial court, the marquis of Pingnan, the chief military officer of the North Zhili, in fact, was appointed by Li Xingzhi, once the marshal returned to Beijing, the students are afraid that Li Xingzhi will take the opportunity to seize the military power of the marshal."
Guo Zhuangtu also agreed with Yang Kun's opinion, after all, in this troubled world, only soldiers have power, and if the military power is taken away, it will be meat on someone else's chopping board.
"If you don't return to Beijing, I'm afraid that my handsome wife, son, and daughter will be harmed by Li Xingzhi."
The Shanhaiguan wall is high and the pool is wide, Wu Sangui is not too afraid of the Jingbei Army, your Shandong army can fight again, Lao Tzu is hiding in the city, what can you do with us, but you are worried about the safety of your Lao Tzu and your concubine Chen Yuanyuan.
"Dashuai, Xiang Han Gaozu was defeated by King Xiang several times, his wife, son and daughter were all lost in the Chu army, the battle of Xingyang, King Xiang tried to threaten Liu Taigong and Empress Lu, but Han Gaozu bluntly said that my father is your father, boil it, and share the meat with me; During the period of the Three Kingdoms, Emperor Zhaolie was repeatedly defeated by the hands of Cao Gong, Emperor Zhaolie did not think of a small family, so he was able to divide the world into one of them, and became a three-legged situation. ”
Guo Zhuangtu smiled, he still understands the thoughts of his benefactor, it is okay to bow down to others, but it is absolutely impossible to lose power.
