The famous Wuhua Mountain is actually a small hill in Kunming City, close to Cuihu Lake and Yuantong Mountain, covering an area of not much, about 25,600 acres, it is a good place in Kunming City.

Wu Sangui, an old traitor whose hands were stained with the blood of the people, is now building a brilliant and magnificent palace here according to the mountain, and he is living a good life.

As for getting promoted again, going to the next level in his career, or something, this old traitor should be ..... right now Perhaps, perhaps, maybe I really don't have that in mind.

Hmm, but no one dares to guarantee that Wu Sangui must not be motivated, after all, this old guy has a very strange hobby - collecting anti-thieves!

In fact, Wu Sangui himself is an anti-thief, or a double anti-thief, first anti-Ming and Dashun, and then anti-Dashun and Daqing. Therefore, the Guan Ning descendants who followed him were at least "two anti-three ministers" - they were all loyal ministers of the anti-Second Dynasty and the three lords, and they were really loyal!

But "anti-two dynasties, Shi Sanzhu" is only the starting price of Wu Sangui's "anti-thief group", and the experience of rebellion is really not the richest. In the process of helping the Qing Dynasty to fight Li Chuang, Zhang Xianzhong, and Nanming, Wu Sangui also collected a group of "three anti and four ministers" or "four anti and five ministers" with more wonderful resumes, many people have successively rebelled against the Ming Dynasty, Dashun (Daxi), Nanming and other dynasties, and some people even went back and forth between various forces, not only creating "turning back", but also being "turning back ministers", not blushing at all. All of them are masters with incomparably rich experience in rebellion, and they are all worthy of rebel experts.

And Wu Sangui, the old thief, does not discriminate against "going back and forth", as long as he has the ability and is willing to follow him, he likes it and gives benefits. For example, Ma Bao, the chief soldier of the middle battalion of the right capital governor under him, followed Li Zicheng, voted for the Southern Ming Dynasty, followed Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo in the Southern Ming camp, and finally shaved his hair and surrendered to Wu Sangui.

And Wang Fuchen, who was sent by Shunzhi to mix with Wu Sangui, has a resume that is even more exciting than Ma Bao! That's Dashun, Daming, Daqing, Nanming...... In the Qing Dynasty, not to mention the "four anti-five ministers", he also created three anti-Ming (Nanming) rebellions, and became a minister of the Qing Dynasty twice!

This living Lu Bu's nickname is really not blind.

Wu Sangui has collected so many rebel experts under his command, it is really difficult to convince the little emperor Kangxi in Beijing that he is a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty! What can you people do every day? Isn't it exchanging rebel experience and refining rebel techniques?

Today, when Wang Fuchen and Wang Jizhen went to Wuhua Mountain, Wu Sangui was studying how to be loyal to the Qing Dynasty with a group of rebel professional households in the Yin'an Hall on Wuhua Mountain!

It's not easy! Wu Sangui and the gang below him have full experience in rebellion, and this should be a loyal minister...... No, it won't!

In addition, Wu Sangui, who would not be a loyal minister, killed Yongli Ye, and the Qing court above looked down on Wu Sangui's gang more and more. You, Wu Sangui, don't even know how to raise your own respect, how can this be a loyal minister?

Let's see how Shang Kexi, the king of Pingnan, became a loyal minister? People are rare Chaozhou thief Qiu Hui, this pirate has played the signboard of "Ming Chaozhou Mansion", Shang Kexi is reluctant to send troops to exterminate, but he cut the mouth of the Hao River, and let him monopolize the illegal salt in Guangdong, and even let the Dahao Port controlled by Qiu Da thief become one of the three legal smuggling ports along the coast of the Qing Dynasty on an equal footing with Macao and Xiamen.

As for Geng Jimao in Fujian, he will be even more loyal, Xiamen Island, which fell into the hands of the Qing Dynasty because of Zheng Ming's internal strife in the early years, was also lost in victory after the sea ban, and let Zheng Ming's side take it back, and now Xiamen has become a base for Zheng Ming and the coastal areas of the Qing Dynasty to carry out legal smuggling trade - I am afraid that Zheng Jing will starve to death and die of poverty!

Let's take a look at Wu Sangui's side...... People can't be resurrected after death, even if Wu Han thinks about it day and night, Emperor Yongli can't come back! So he can only fix some Miao Barbarian rebellion to raise Kou Ziwei. But the question is, where can these Miao Man Toast compare with Yongli? This group of people is a group of soil emperors who are dead, and it is impossible to seize the Qing Dynasty. The Great Qing Dynasty raised Wu Sangui and Miaoman, it was better to be divided by those toasts, as if the threat was a little smaller.

Therefore, the more Wu Sangui raised his self-respect in Yungui, the more the imperial court in Beijing felt that he was going to rebel! The more the court in Beijing felt that he was going to rebel, the more they wanted to weaken him. And the more the imperial court weakened Wu Sangui, the more Wu Sangui felt insecure.

Therefore, Wu Sangui has not gone to Beijing to make a pilgrimage to the Qing Emperor for many years, and he still holds the military power in his hands...... Since you can't raise your own respect, let's support the army and respect yourself!

And a vassal king who hides in Yunnan and refuses to enter the court, still has tens of thousands of elite soldiers in his hands, and has a large group of rebel professional households under his hands, how can he not want to rebel?

This is really the conscience of heaven and earth! Although Wu Sangui doesn't look like a loyal minister no matter how he looks at it, he really doesn't want to rebel, he just wants to maintain the strength to rebel at any time, and then be a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty with peace of mind.

Therefore, although he refused to enter the court, he would still send important ministers of the vassal to Beijing year after year to ask the court for the silver to raise soldiers, and this year's errand to enter Beijing to ask for silver fell on Wu Guogui.

Of course, after this silver comes, it will not be eaten alone by the Pingxi Domain, and the pillars of the Qing Dynasty in the court will have to share the profits, otherwise Wu Sangui's people will not have the silver.

But Rao is like this, and this job that requires money is getting more and more difficult. The court refused to give it happily, and the hearts of the courtiers became darker and darker!

At this time, seeing Wang Fuchen, who came up to the mountain to worship, Wu Sangui, a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty who was full of thoughts about how to make silver, talked about asking for silver with this "great loyal minister who came and went" who was very compatible with him.

"Brother Fuchen, you came just in time, give the old man a detailed reference, this Ao Taishi wrote to the old man a few days ago to cry poor, to reduce the salaries of my Yun and your officers and soldiers, to the old man to cut off the soldiers, and to dismiss the old man to dismiss the feudal subordinate Ding Yu to the cantonment...... Is it possible for Kangxi's eight-year military expenses to reach three million taels? ”

"Lord Wang, isn't this Ao Taishi's letter to you about this, just to reduce the salaries of our Yun and your officers and soldiers?" Wang Fuchen sighed and said, "This Ao Taishi is not very good at talking, I think you have to reduce the military expenses a little." ”

"Can't be reduced!" A thirty-seven or eighteen-year-old middle-aged strong man who looked a little like Wu Sangui and Wu Shicong immediately jumped up and shouted, "Now that the population of the clan is increasing, most of the officers and soldiers of the Green Battalion have families, and the expenses are getting bigger!" Although we also divided the land in Yun and Gui to the feudal subordinates and the officers and soldiers of the Green Battalion, the land in Yun and Gui is still too thin, and it can only be subsidized a little. These are all men who have fought for life and death all their lives, and it's okay to eat and drink well, otherwise they will ......"

"Ying Qi, don't say it again!" Wu Sangui suddenly spoke, interrupting the middle-aged strong man who was open-mouthed.

This strong man is Wu Sangui's second son Wu Yingqi, and the eagle-eyed Wu Shicong is his son. Although this son of Wu Sangui is a bit of a big mouth, people with big mouths usually tell the truth. The population of Wu Sangui's domain, as well as the families of the soldiers of the Green Battalion, did grow rapidly...... All of them want to get married and have children, and many people don't just ask for a wife, can they have fewer children?

In addition, although Yun and Gui are very poor today, the cost of living is also low, raising children is cheap, and there is enough land to distribute to those children, so the subordinates of Wu Sangui and the soldiers of the Green Battalion can work hard to give birth.

And these feudal subordinates and the officers and soldiers of the Green Battalion, except for a small number of Wu Sangui's old Guanning department, the others have all mixed in the camp and the western camp. These people were not only full of rebellious spirit, but also unconvinced of the Qing Dynasty - many of them could follow Li Dingguo to resist the Qing Dynasty, and in their opinion, the so-called Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers were not invincible.

If the Qing Dynasty wants to deduct their silver and let them live a hard life, they may have to really rebel!

However, it is not appropriate to say this in front of Wang Fuchen, although this Wang Fuchen is also a rebel professional, but his establishment is in the Ministry of Internal Affairs after all......

Wu Sangui was about to ask, what way Wang Fuchen could walk in the palace, and whether he could ask the old queen mother to come forward and say something, when his eldest grandson Wu Shicong was already panting and rushed in, and he came behind Wu Sangui as soon as he slipped away, and he also came to Wu Sangui's ear and muttered.

As soon as Wu Shicong's words were finished, Wu Sangui himself looked at Wang Fuchen with a curious expression, "Fuchen, your son Zhongxiao is going to compete with the old man's grandson Shijue again." ”

Wang Fuchen laughed and said, "Young man, it's nothing to fight...... By the way, who won? ”

Wu Sangui shook his head and asked with a smile: "It's not comparable yet, Ming'er is only comparable." And your son also said that this time he will use your unique skill of cleaning up the Manchurian white-armored soldiers in Datong to deal with Shi Jue! Auxiliary, this stunt of yours...... What the hell is it? Can you tell me about it? ”
