Chapter 517: Peace (1)
The Qing army had a large group of envoys who came to Nanzhili and went to Yingtianfu and Huizhou respectively.
In order to avoid a monopoly of the family, Du Yinxi did not meet with the Qing army envoys alone, but asked people to invite Ling Jingyang and Jin Sheng to return to Congshan Pass.
After receiving the invitation, Ling Jingyang deliberately returned to Congshan Pass with a rifle platoon, and discussed with Du Yinxi and Jin Sheng, should they continue to fight, or make peace with the Qing army?
The three of them arrived on the mountain, put aside Emperor Hongguang, and talked for a long night in the Duyinxi Mansion in Congshan Pass.
Ling Jingyang always thinks that the Fusang people are a big problem, this group of people is more fierce than the Qing army, let the Fusang people enter the Central Plains, and the land of China will be born Tu Tai, and they will become slaves of the Fusang people, and he agrees with the Qing army to negotiate peace.
Jin Sheng's attitude was resolute, and he would not drive Jiannu out and vowed not to give up.
Among the three, Gu Yinxi has a strategic vision, thinking that the Qing army cannot be annihilated by the Fusang people, although the Fusang people have not yet invaded the pass, but the Qing army was forced to go south to negotiate peace, you can imagine how terrifying the Fusang people are?
But you can't just fight with the Qing army, at least let the Qing army bleed, but let the Qing army stand in front.
In the end, he agreed with Ling Jingyang's opinion and made peace with the Qing army.
The two supported the peace, so angry that Jin Sheng left the table angrily, Ling Jingyang grabbed Jin Sheng, and said to him: "Lord Jin, think about it, can we beat the Fusang people who Jiannu can't beat?" ”
"Then you can't make peace with Jiannu, Jiannu still occupies a large area of land in the north of Jiangbei, do you just watch the Central Plains become a horse farm for Jiannu?"
The more Jin Sheng spoke, the more excited he became, and finally asked him to lead the troops to Jiangbei, destroy the Jiannu with the Fusang people, and then compete with the Fusang people for the world.
Isn't this a copy of the Northern Song Dynasty uniting the Jin State to destroy the Liao State?
Maybe Jin Sheng didn't understand the power of the Fusang people, and Jin Sheng was unmoved by what Yin Xi and Ling Jingyang said, and said that this was a good opportunity to join forces with the Fusang people to completely eliminate Jiannu.
Ling Jingyang wanted Jin Sheng to go to the front line to fight the Fusang army, so that he could see with his own eyes how terrible the Fusang people were?
But even if Jin Sheng was allowed to see the strength of the Fusang people, Jin Sheng would still choose to annihilate Jiannu with the Fusang people, and the three of them fell silent for a while.
In the end, it was Yinxi who broke the deadlock and took the lead in saying: "It's better to be like this, peace is still to be made peace, but let Jiannu go back to Shandong and Henan, do you think this is good?" ”
This will not weaken the Qing army too much, but also recover the lost territory, Jin Sheng's face is better, and Ling Jingyang also said on the side: "Lord Jin, the three of us are an iron triangle, and the revival of the Ming Dynasty is counting on us, we can't be in the nest." ”
Jin Sheng said again: "Shandong, Henan has long been broken, throw it to us, or is it a burden?" ”
Du Yinxi was enraged by Jin Sheng, and said a little angrily: "That's not right for you, you want to destroy Jiannu, and you don't want land, isn't this Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror, isn't it a person inside and out?" ”
"I can't say anything about the two of you, the old man just said a word, it is okay to make peace, you must get out of Shanhaiguan and return to the customs."
After finishing speaking, Jin Sheng left alone, and Ling Jingyang and Du Yinxi looked at each other.
The two of them can understand Jin Sheng's hatred for Jiannu, but no matter how much hatred they have, they shouldn't be rash.
Du Yinxi and Ling Jingyang said: "Governor Lingdu, tomorrow I and the Jiannu envoy will ask for the cession of Henan and Shandong to us, if Jiannu agrees, you will lead your troops to settle in these two places, okay?" ”
"I'll go to Henan, and Master Jin will go to Shandong."
Du Yinxi was a little confused, and Ling Jingyang said again: "It is very likely that the Fusang people came across the sea and landed in Shandong to achieve the goal of cutting off the rear road of the Qing army. ”
This is to let Jin Sheng see the color of Fusang with his own eyes, and Du Yinxi feels that there is some truth, and the two of them settle down like this.
Du Yinxi also said that King Lu in Yingtianfu, if he negotiated peace with the Qing army, let King Lu continue to be powerful in Yingtianfu, but His Majesty was in the nest from Shangguan, it would make people laugh at the world, and it would also make all parties continue to divide the territory.
He asked Ling Jingyang's opinion to forcibly expel King Lu?
This can make Ling Jingyang scratch his head, King Lu's soldiers and horses in Yingtianfu is a joke, but if Yingtianfu is captured, His Majesty is bound to return to Yingtianfu, and at that time he will have to face the attack of the Fusang people alone, which is a very risky act for the Hongguang court, which is still weak.
"After a strategy, let King Lu continue to be in Yingtianfu, and it won't be long before he will be frightened by the Fusang people."
Seeing that Ling Jingyang did not agree, Du Yinxi had to give up.
Since he presided over the imperial court, it can be said that he has been conscientious, militarily delegating power to listen to Jingyang, and trusting Jin Sheng economically, he is in charge of the overall situation in the imperial court.
He asked Ling Jingyang to stay and eat some supper before going back, Ling Jingyang came from Ningguo Mansion, and before he had time to eat, he came to the mansion for a meeting, and he was indeed a little hungry, so he ate at the Duyinxi Mansion.
The two chatted while eating, and at the dinner table, Du Yinxi asked Ling Jingyang, are Fusang people really that terrible?
Ling Jingyang definitely can't tell Du Yinxi that he is from the future, and there are people in Fusang who come from the future, even if it is the Nanyang Europa people, there are also people who come from the future, and Du Yinxi will not believe these words.
He talked about the Fusang people from a different angle and talked about the Fusang people, the Fusang people have lived in the island country for generations, the island country has many earthquakes and storms, and the land of China has smooth wind and rain, fertile land, and vast territory.
Du Yinxi fell silent, and Ling Jingyang told him that the rebels in Zhejiang, but with the support of the regular army of Fusang, they would do evil in Zhejiang, and the army under the command of King Lu was defeated and retreated, and Zhang Huangyan could not resist the attack of the rebels.
"You mean there are Fuso people in the rebels?"
"It's not just that there are Fusang people in the rebels, all parts of China have been infiltrated by Fusang people, I heard that Zheng Zhilong's fleet was attacked by Fusang a few days ago, and lost two-thirds of its naval strength, forcing Zheng Chenggong to rebel in the army and kill a lot of Fusang fine works, which is why we always avoid war with the Zheng family, after all, they are there, and they can contain the Fusang people."
Plug Yinxi couldn't help but sigh.
"My Huaxia wolf smoke is everywhere, Ling Dudu, you are the Ming sharp knife, this world needs you to pacify."
Ling Jingyang also worked with him to dig out his heart and lungs, military is very important, but without strong logistics, military victory is only temporary, and it still needs strong stamina to completely defeat the enemy.
The two had some supper, Ling Jingyang returned to his mansion in Congshanguan, this time only Xu Sheng and the rifle platoon came back with him, Xu Sheng was carrying a rifle, Ling Jingyang saw the rifle and remembered Mei Shaozuo, he went to Shandong and didn't come back, and he didn't know if he was still alive?
"Governor, where are you resting tonight?"
Ling Jingyang thought for a while, and said to Xu Sheng: "Spend the night outside tonight." ”
Xu Sheng
Somewhat surprised, Ling Jingyang was still very jealous of the imperial court, afraid that another Zhang Luofu would launch a mutiny.
"After meeting with the Qing army envoy tomorrow, we will go back as soon as possible."
Although he didn't understand why Ling Jingyang was in such a hurry to go back, Xu Sheng still resolutely carried out the military order, went to feed the horses in person, and set off to return to Ningguo Mansion tomorrow.
After Ling Jingyang fed the horses to Xu Sheng, he and Xu Sheng went to an inn in Guannei to stay.
After the two left, suddenly a group of masked knife hands came to Ling Jingyang's mansion to kill, this group of people had dozens of people, and there was only one goal tonight, that is, to kill the national thieves who made peace with the Qing army.
Not only Ling Jingyang Mansion, but also in the Plug Yinxi Mansion, there are also unknown armed personnel killed.
After Ling Jingyang and Xu Sheng stayed in the inn, the knife hand approached the mansion, and the musket platoon was stationed in the mansion, and in the face of dozens of knife hands, the musket platoon guards began to conduct target training.
Almost one shot, before the swordsman could rush to the ten meters of the mansion, he was killed more than half, and the remaining swordsmen did not dare to rush again, and were forced to give up the raid on Ling Jingyang's mansion.
"The Ancient God Emperor"
In the Mansion of Du Yinxi, the knife hand was also killed, although Du Yinxi gave up his military power, he still attached great importance to his personal safety, and Ling Jingyang did not limit the size of his personal army.
There were 500 soldiers stationed in his mansion, and in the face of the rushing swordsmen, they were mercilessly shot by the soldiers with bows and arrows, and the swordsmen doubted their lives, and disappeared into the darkness after a while.
Du Yinxi quietly listened to the report of his subordinates in the room, and the knife hand outside the house was repulsed, and after a while, another subordinate reported to him, and Ling Jingyang's mansion was also raided, but fortunately was repelled by Ling Jingyang's guards.
Assassinating him and Ling Jingyang at the same time tonight, making Du Yinxi more determined to negotiate peace with the Qing army, some henchmen suspect that the knife hand tonight was done by Jin Sheng's people, because Jin Sheng opposed the peace, and Du Yinxi was not disturbed.
The soldiers brought in the corpses of the knife hands, the faces of these knife hands were very unfamiliar, there were tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the pass, there were too many strangers, and Du Yinxi was forced to give up finding from the corpses which side was the assassination tonight.
Another subordinate mentioned Ma Shiying to him, whether Ma Shiying and other defeated forces were counterattacking, and Du Yinxi felt that there was some truth, so he was about to let people go to the back mountain to bring Ma Shiying and others.
Suddenly, a family member came in to report to him, and Ling Jingyang came to visit again with the guards, and waited outside the door.
Du Yinxi hurriedly went to greet Ling Jingyang.
Ling Jingyang heard the gunshots in the direction of the mansion at the inn, and Xu Sheng returned to the mansion from another road, and when he returned to the mansion, there were dozens of corpses lying outside, he did not look at the corpses, but took the rifle platoon soldiers, and came to the mansion of Plug Yinxi again.
The group came to the Dufu Mansion, where there were dozens of corpses, and Ling Jingyang immediately had a general impression in his heart.
Tonight's assassination was definitely not done by Jin Sheng, or by Ma Shiying and others, but by the assassination activities carried out by Fusang in the imperial court, with the purpose of sabotaging the peace agreement with the Qing army, allowing the Ming army to continue the attack, and reducing casualties for the Fusang army to attack the Qing army.
Plug Yinxi greeted him to the house, the two saw that each other was still alive, and their hearts were for a while, Ling Jingyang asked Plug Yinxi if he wanted to protect Jin Sheng?
"That's not necessary, Lord Jin doesn't live in the mountains, he has a house in Jixi County, and he and his family work and live in the county on weekdays, there are a thousand soldiers and horses in Jixi City, and these assassins can't make waves."
