Chapter 69: Wu Sangui's Snail Master
Chongzhen came over to unlock the prince's acupoint, and gave Wang Chengen and Jin Xuan antidotes, and the rest of the dead and wounded soldiers were registered, and all the injuries were treated by the imperial doctor.
Chongzhen decreed that Wang Chengen was crowned as the chief palm seal of the twelve eunuchs, in charge of all the eunuchs and brocade guards, and Wang Jiayan was crowned as the secretary of the military department, and Jin Xuan was crowned as the squire of the military department, and then all the soldiers who patrolled the city and participated in the battle tonight were all promoted to a level, and the future of the martyrs of the Ming Dynasty was compensated.
The soldiers under this chicken soup are boiling again, and they feel that it is too worthwhile to follow Chongzhen, even if they die, they can earn a life for future generations.
The road was planted in a moat to the east, and there was a pop and splash.
I don't know how long it took, but the road poked its head out of the moat bank to the east, but it sank again, and the water fluttered twice.
"There are people in the river, ...... quickly" The Dashun army of the night patrol passed by here, and just happened to notice the sound in the water.
A few people went down and got Lu Xiangdong to the shore with all their hands and feet, and found that Lu Xiangdong was covered in blood, and he didn't know who was going to work.
Isn't this a dead body?
When I touch it with my hand, I still have a breath in my mouth.
Hurriedly carried to the barracks, found a military doctor to adjust the wound, and then they planned to tell the main general Liu Fangliang until dawn.
But by daybreak, the man was gone.
So I hurriedly searched for it, but after searching for a long time, there was no result.
At this time, Lu Xiangdong had already left Shangjing, dragging his injured body, so embarrassed, and thinking about the big words he left behind, he had no shame to see Li Zicheng and Niu Jinxing again.
He stood outside Shangjing, the morning breeze was bleak. Looking at the palace, he gritted his teeth and was ruthless: Faint Jun Chongzhen, you are waiting for old decay, you will not die today, and swear to avenge this revenge and the hatred of killing your son!
Looking at the seemingly bright sky, he discerned the direction and limped away on the sheep intestine path leading to the northeast......
Yongpyeongfu.
Wu Sangui, the general soldier of Ningyuan, with 40,000 Guan Ning troops, known as 80,000 to the outside world, was temporarily stationed here.
It is more than six hundred miles away from Ningyuan through Shanhaiguan to here, but there are still five or six hundred miles away from Shangjing, so they no longer go forward, and they are rubbing here.
However, Wu Sangui didn't go fast before.
From the beginning of March, he received Chongzhen's will to join the guard and Qinwang, and crowned him as Ping Xibo, until now 20 days have passed, and the general soldier of Ningyuan, who was regarded by Zhu Youzhen as a minister relied on by the Ming Dynasty, has only walked more than 600 miles.
With an average of less than 30 miles a day, this is not an expedited march, but a snail's speed.
The reason why Wu Sangui is dangling here is, of course, for a reason.
He doesn't want to be in the *** outside the customs anymore, since he was 20 years old with his uncle and father in the horse career, he has been dealing with *** for nearly 20 years now.
The power is getting bigger and bigger, and there are powerful red-coated cannons, and the Ming army is winning less and losing more, and the defense line outside the pass is lost step by step.
From Sun Chengzong, Sun Yuanhua, to Yuan Chonghuan, three impregnable lines of defense were built in the area of Ningjin, and now only this Ningyuan defense line remains.
One after another the supervisors and commanders fled to death, not to mention those who died at the border passes, those who did not die in battle were captured and beheaded by Chongzhen, and even Yuan Chonghuan was sentenced to death.
The food and salary could not be paid, the army mutinied, and the generals of the Ming army surrendered one after another, first Kong Youde, then Shang Kexi and Geng Zhongming, and then even Hong Chengchou surrendered.
Wu Sangui was also a little disheartened, he didn't want to surrender, but he didn't want to stay in Ningyuan in Daming.
Don't look at Nurhachi's life, but his son Huang Taiji is more powerful than him, and under his governance, Houjin rose day by day and grew into the Great Qing Kingdom.
Replace the Mongols and Khitans and become the king of eagles in the vast grasslands.
The Ming Dynasty is decadent.
The Ming court was moody and the most difficult to serve, especially Chongzhen liked to settle accounts after the autumn. He didn't know which day the Son of Heaven sword hanging over his head would fall on his neck.
Therefore, he had long wanted to withdraw to Kannai.
Now the imperial court has crowned him with an official position and made him the king of Weiqin
It's a godsend.
But at this time, his head is very clear, and it is okay to let him enter the guard, but he must not go to King Qin.
So he found an excuse to move the 200,000 people inside and outside the border, which was the high-sounding excuse for his snail-like march.
Now that I'm in Yongping Mansion, I just don't want to leave.
The reason is that he received three letters before and after.
The first letter is, of course, a handwritten letter of persuasion written by Li Zicheng to him, and the second letter is together with the first letter, which is a letter of persuasion written to him by his father Wu Xiang.
The meaning of these two letters is the same, both of them persuade him to obey the heavens, quickly lead the troops to abandon the Ming Dynasty, surrender to the Dashun, and seal his wife and son.
After reading these two letters, Wu Sangui nodded frequently.
I feel that what Li Zicheng and his father Wu Xiang said is very reasonable, the Ming Dynasty is now over, and this rotten court full of holes should have changed a long time ago.
In this case, don't go forward, what kind of king will you go to? Just stay here and wait to see how the Ming Dynasty perishes......
Successively received urging letters from Wang Yongji and Li Yutian, but Wu Sangui ignored the letter.
Wang Yongji was the governor of Jiliao, and Li Yutian was the governor of Liaodong, both of whom were Wu Sangui's top bosses.
However, these two are also old fritters in officialdom.
They know that the old car of the Ming Dynasty has gone so far that it can no longer walk.
However, the imperial court guarded the five hundred miles of the text, and the two of them, as the military and political chiefs of Jiliao, of course did not dare to disrespect the order.
And on the surface, it must also be high-profile to cater to the imperial court.
The two of them spent a month, sitting in a sedan chair from the governor's yamen and the governor's yamen, all the way upstream to play in the mountains and rivers, and finally came to Yutian.
But he saw that Wu Sangui was too abrasive, and he was still in Yongping, so he had to symbolically urge.
How do you know that Wu Sangui doesn't bird the two of them at all.
You two please make it ready-made, let me Wu Sangui go to work hard, the credit is all for the two of you, and I will carry the sin by myself, ***, I, Wu Sangui, will not be so stupid!
After reading the urging letter, Wu Sangui scolded and spat at the letter, and then stuffed the letter into the stove.
But soon Wu Sangui received the third letter.
This letter was also written by his father, Wu Xiang, but when it was opened, it was completely different from the previous one.
It's a bloody and tearful accusation.
accused Li Zicheng's general Liu Zongmin of bullying their Wu family, riding on their necks to and pee, and even snatching his concubine Chen Yuanyuan.
Syllable!
Wu Sangui's eyes widened, his blood pierced his pupils, and he raised his hand and smashed the case with a palm, "Piffan dares to insult me? I'm going to kill them!"
"Someone!"
Wu Sangui ordered the assembly.
Wu Guogui, Fang Guangchen, Hu Xinshui and Xia Longshan quickly came in from outside, and this is an important figure in Wu Sangui Group.
"I've seen my uncle." They all gave gifts.
Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty Chongzhen
