Ao Bai was sulking, but he didn't want to see anyone like him now.

The first Baturu of the Qing Dynasty has become a wasted person, and he can't even look down on himself!

used to say that he wanted revenge, but he must have gone on it himself, and now he has to look forward to others.

Hauge died on the battlefield, and in Aobai's opinion, it was too late for Dorgon to be happy.

After all, if there was no Dolgon, it would not have been Fulin's turn to be the emperor at all, and the throne should have been Hauge.

Ao Bai leaned on the wooden couch and picked up a small jar of wine, thinking that what was passed back was the good news that Haoge had captured Qin Zuoming and returned to Beijing.

never thought that the truth slapped him in the face again, and now he can only continue to use wine to drown his sorrows.

Jiujiang, Hubei.

Zuo Mengeng also shaved his hair early, and now he is also in a trance when he looks at Li Guoying, who was once sent by himself to the capital to face the saint, with his "predecessor" Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, and defecting to him.

A few days ago, he didn't run out of the remnants of the Great Western Army, but went directly to Zunyi.

I heard that Zhang Xianzhong, the emperor of the Great Western Army, was killed by an arrow from Haoge, but the Great Western Army ran to Fotu Pass and was stopped by Zeng Ying, and then was killed by the Great Western Army with an arrow.

Now I heard that the Great Western Army reorganized the army in Zunyi and cut down the left prime minister Wang Zhaolin and others, which can be regarded as entering the era of the four generals in power.

It is said that the four generals are in power, that is, the eldest Sun Kewang and the second Li Dingguo compete for power and profit.

But this is none of Zuo Mengeng's business, he just heard his former subordinates say that Haoge and others died in Sichuan and Shu, and tens of thousands of elites were all broken.

The news really shocked him and didn't know what to say.

Wu Sangui got the follow-up news, and he was in a complicated mood, this time he entered Sichuan, and he also lost more than half.

I hope Dolgon doesn't hold on to himself.

"King Pingxi, what are your plans?"

Zuo Mengeng's current subordinates were dispatched by Prince Ying to eliminate the Southern Ming forces in Jiangxi, Huguang and other places, and scattered all over the country.

Wu Sangui let out a long sigh and said, "I never thought that the Sichuan-Shu war would be so erosive, as far as I can see.

The virtuous nephew is the closest to Sichuan and Shu, and I am afraid that there will be an order from the imperial court soon, and you will be transferred to Sichuan to suppress bandits. ”

"Huh?"

Zuo Mengeng stopped in Bengbu all of a sudden.

Don't look at him inheriting his father's position, but after the ducks were put on the shelves, and the generals under his command hugged Prince Ying's thigh, they didn't treat him very well.

"What a good thing that is!" Zuo Mengeng stood up and walked left and right in the county office.

Even the more than 30,000 Manchurian Eight Banners led by Haoge can die in Sichuan and Shu, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals who support the scene under him are afraid that they can't resist it at all.

Zuo Liangyu's elite men and horses have long since died, and now they are just a group of soldiers who fill the scene.

Zuo Menggeng's people couldn't even defeat Wu Sangui's Guan Ning army, let alone others.

Zuo Mengeng not only didn't want to enter Sichuan to suppress bandits, he was also afraid that Qin Zuoming would go out of Sichuan!

What's more, Huguang also has to face the devouring of the remnants of the Great Western Army, as well as several forces of the Great Shun Army.

Don't look at the great victory of the Qing court in Jiangnan, but those forces are always strangled and not clean.

The most important thing is that Zuo Mengeng heard about it last time, Qin Zuoming hacked the officials to death for the Han army that surrendered to the Qing court, and all the big soldiers below were released.

In this way, even if they are officials who want to fight, but the soldiers below can't do their work, even if they lose anyway, they don't have the power of their lives.

The team that destroyed the Qing Dynasty, how could they have fought against?

Just the destruction of Prince Su Haoge made many of the old Ming army soldiers who surrendered to the Qing army tremble.

Wu Sangui saw that Zuo Mengeng really couldn't hold his breath, so he slowly spoke:

"It's better for you to send someone to pretend to surrender Qin Zuoming to gain his trust, if you can get the artillery in his hand and then dedicate it to the Qing court, the credit is not small."

"I'm pretending to descend to Qin Zuoming?" Zuo Mengeng pointed at himself and said, "How can he believe me?" ”

"After you surrendered to the Qing court, you just turned into the Yellow Banner of the Han Army, but you were given a title, or did you really want to be the Gushan of the Yellow Banner?"

"Nope!"

When he thought of this, Zuo Mengeng was a little angry, and he was crowned king when he surrendered to the Qing court.

not only has his own independent subordinates, but also is valued by the Qing court.

On the other hand, he surrendered to the British Prince Azig with hundreds of thousands of troops, but nothing was left, but he also broke up hundreds of thousands of his own horses.

Wu Sangui followed the guidance and said: "You don't have anything, I heard that Qin Zuoming wants to restore the Ming Dynasty, you were kidnapped by your subordinates and had to surrender."

If you want to betray the Qing court now, why not? ”

Zuo Mengeng thought about it like this, what he said was good, but I am afraid that this kind of thing is not easy to achieve.

"King Pingxi, in my opinion, Qin Zuoming has no intention of recovering the Ming Dynasty, otherwise why would he go up to the mountain to be a bandit?"

"No, even if he wants to usurp the throne, he will hold the banner of Daming first."

Wu Sangui said seriously: "Otherwise, how can more people join him?" ”

"Well, then I'll send someone to give it a try." Zuo Mengeng beckoned and sent someone to call Jin Shenghuan.

"I wonder what the marshal called me for?"

Jin Shenghuan knew that Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, had come to Jiujiang, and Zuo Mengeng, in order not to let Wu Sangui be underestimated, summoned his nominal subordinates to come to greet Wu Sangui together.

Who let Wu Sangui "mix well" in the Qing court, at least better than them.

They are a group of people who are really not loved by their grandmothers and uncles.

After all, there are too many Han troops who have surrendered, so it is worthless at all!

Zuo Mengeng said Wu Sangui's strategy, Jin Shenghuan thought about it, don't look at himself as the chief soldier of the Qing court now.

But there is Jiangxi Governor Zhang Yutian and Inspector Dong Xuecheng coerced him to give money, and the reward of the Qing court was not at all.

Even Zuo Mengeng doesn't have any titles, let alone the people under them.

Fighting to the death with the Nanming forces, they are in the front, but in terms of meritorious deeds, they are at the end.

In the process of opening up the territory for the Qing court, he made great contributions, but he was trampled on his head.

Just because he was born as a group of thieves before.

This operation really made Jin Shenghuan angry.

"Will this work?" Jin Shenghuan looked at Wu Sangui with some suspicion.

"Qin Zuoming killed Haoge, the prince of the Great Qing Dynasty, and the world was shaken, so isn't it normal for us, the old generals of the Ming army, to want to change their evil ways and return to righteousness?"

Jin Shenghuan nodded: "Since the big marshal and the king of Pingxi can trust me, then I will send someone to contact Qin Zuoming." ”

"That's very good." Zuo Mengeng had a smile on his face, he chose Jin Shenghuan, and he also knew his situation.

"If you can make meritorious deeds, the Qing court will inevitably give you a reward, then won't you have a future?

As long as you get the secret of the artillery in Qin Zuoming's hands, not to mention the king, the first-class duke will not be able to escape. ”

Jin Shenghuan retreated and returned to the courtyard he plundered, and after thinking for a while, he felt that things were not simple, so he sent someone to call Wang Deren.

Wang Deren is the old department of Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, after Li Zicheng was killed, he surrendered to the Qing army with the prince Azig.

It's just that when Dolgon's shaving order came down, Jin Shenghuan firmly implemented it, but Wang Tizhong firmly refused to shave his hair.

Wang Tizhong is brave and good at fighting, and his troops are strong, Jin Shenghuan is relying on him to occupy Jiangxi, so he is wary of Wang Tizhong and wants to get rid of him at all times.

Now Wang Tizhong refused not to shave his hair, and immediately gave Jin Shenghuan a chance, and he teamed up with Wang Deren, a henchman in Wang Tizhong, to assassinate Wang Tizhong.

After two days of fighting, Wang Bu was lured by the killing of the leader and Wang Deren's lure, and attached himself to Jin Shenghuan.

"What did the Chief Soldier summon me for?"

"I have a secret to teach you to do." Jin Shenghuan whispered to him.

"My lord, are we going to fake it?"

"Naturally, since the Qing court doesn't look down on us, why should we continue to work for him?"

Jin Shenghuan said indignantly: "Qin Zuoming was able to kill Haoge, it can be seen that the Manchurian Eight Banners of the Qing court are not too powerful, they are all boasted." ”

"I'm afraid it's not boasting." Wang Deren said cautiously.

"Even if it's not boasting, as far as I know, the Qing court will not enter the customs more than 100,000 Qing troops, of which the Manchurian Eight Banners occupy the majority, but it lost more than 30,000 in Sichuan and Shu at once."

Jin Shenghuan whispered: "If we don't raise a big banner in Jiangxi, how many Qing troops can be assigned to us to quell the rebellion?" ”

"Besides, if you and I are under Qin Zuoming, it is much better than being used as a stepping stone by Zuo Mengeng and Wu Sangui."

Wang Deren was persuaded by Jin Shenghuan and nodded: "I'll go." ”

"Very good!"

Outside Chongqing.

Qin Zuoming asked Qin Liangyu not to nest in that small place in Shizhu County, let's go to the big city.

"You are now more and more loved by the people." Qin Liangyu sat in the carriage, still wearing armor.

"Whatever my aunt said, my nephew just did things calmly." Qin Liangyu did not refute.

Twenty years ago, the white-pole soldiers killed the Tartars, and almost all of them were killed in battle, and their descendants gradually grew up.

Originally, they didn't want to get involved in the Tartar fight.

But Qin Zuoming killed Prince Su Haoge of the Qing Dynasty and many Manchurian Eight Banners in one fell swoop.

The children of Shizhu County and Zhongzhou joined Qin Zuoming's team one after another.

The most important thing is that when you join the army, you can also give your family land.

Even though Qin Liangyu takes care of her subordinates' families, there are so many people, there is no strong labor at home, coupled with natural and man-made disasters, it is common for them to be hungry and full.

"Zuo Ming." Qin Liangyu looked out the window and said, "I just hope you don't forget your duty as a courtier." ”

"Auntie is saying that I don't want to deal with the affairs of those Ming officials?"

Qin Zuoming leaned to the side instead: "Speaking of them, just don't hold me back, what do you expect them to do?"

Pulling you together to fight and consume each other?

Auntie, I'm too lazy to think of snakes with them, so I'm dressed as a bandit, so it's good for them to be afraid of me, in short, they can't control my head.

Even if Ma Gan dies unyieldingly, I will scold him, and when the Great Western Army is gone, he feels relieved and opens the city gate?

Is he not clear why the Great Western Army fled Sichuan? ”

Qin Liangyu knew that her nephew was telling the truth, the world was so corrupt, how could she not know what those Shangguan of the Ming Dynasty looked like.

"Okay, let's not talk about that." Qin Liangyu smiled: "Zuoming has also grown up, and now that he has a successful career, it is time to marry a wife."

I think Miss Su is a good fit for you. ”

"It's all up to my aunt to decide on this." Qin Zuoming was also extremely satisfied with Su Ruonan.

After all, who doesn't like long legs, and in troubled times, it is lucky to meet a good girl.

A male bandit marries a female bandit, and it's really a good match.

"Don't be shy."

Qin Liangyu breathed a sigh of relief, after starting a family, presumably Zuo Ming would be much more stable.

She was really a little afraid that Zuo Ming would be under her subordinates and instigated to be the king.

At such a young age as he is, this kind of thing, the water is too deep, I'm afraid that a careless person can't grasp it.

If Zuo Ming has a family, he will consider things more comprehensively, and he will not be easily fooled.

Outside the city of Chongqing, there is a knocking and beating, and the color of welcome.

Qin Liangyu stood on the carriage, never thinking that he would return to Chongqing in such a posture because of his nephew.

The people who were in charge of the city knew almost all of them, but almost all of them died.

"My aunt helped me guard the east gate of Irikawa." Qin Zuoming muttered in a low voice:

"After getting married, I led the army directly to northern Sichuan, occupied Shanxi, Shaanxi, and pointed to Beijing."

"Isn't it too urgent?"

Qin Zuoming helped Qin Liangyu get out of the car, and said in a low voice: "Time is not waiting for me, the prince of the dog Tartar died in the middle of the river, and Dolgon will definitely deal with it."

The most important thing is that I don't believe in those generals who are ambitious, or who are indifferent to the Qing court, and they don't have a heart in their hearts.

The fire of killing Hauge will only burn more and more vigorously, and the destruction of the Qing court is precisely to take advantage of his illness and kill him. ”

Qin Liangyu patted the back of Qin Zuoming's hand: "I'm old after all, since Zuoming asked me to guard the rear, I will do my best." ”

"I trust my aunt." Qin Zuoming said something and entered the Chongqing Mansion.

Zuo Mengeng's messenger, the general contractor was subcontracted to Wang Deren, and he went to Chongqing all the time.

It's just that Qin Zuoming went to the stone pillar to invite Qin Liangyu, and it was delayed for a few days.

In the past few days, he has been walking around Chongqing, and found that both the people and the soldiers had smiles on their faces.

In any case, Sichuan and Shu finally settled down, and from then on, only Qin Dashuai had the final say.

Moreover, Qin Dashuai was very good to the people and soldiers, and established a peasant association to divide the fields among the soldiers under his command.

In particular, a school has been set up, and I heard that if you recognize 3,000 words, you can graduate from the school and do things for the handsome.

As for the scholars, they were slaughtered by Zhang Xianzhong last time, and they thought that they would be valued by Qin Zuoming, but in the end, they were only asked to teach literacy.

The maintenance of the yamen and other places almost all fell into the hands of the peasant associations.

Wang Deren did not understand these measures, but it did not prevent the people from loving Qin Zuoming.

Especially after he revealed his identity, Sergeant Chuan did not guard against him, as long as he did not enter the military land.

"Wang Deren, today our handsome man is back."

Wang Deren stood up, rubbed his face and said, "I hope my brother can lead the way and spread the word for me!" ”
