Chapter 173: Wu Yingxiong, Go to the Central Plains! (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass)
"Lord Wang, the book sent by the third master said that the second son of the prince's family was rescued by Wang Datou, and followed Wang Datou to Guangdong with his sister Xiaogang, and was also sent to the Restoration School by Wang Datou to study, and at present, in Haoao, he and Wang Datou are getting along well."
In Nanzheng's Xiwang Mansion, Hu Guozhu, who had just been appointed as the chief official of the Xiwang Mansion and was actually the first assistant of Wu Sangui, was reporting to his old Taishan the information about Wu Shifan and Liangguang that he had just received from Wu Guogui.
According to Wu Sangui's arrangement, Wu Guogui was entrusted with the important task of Hunan, made the general of Pingnan, and led the Wu army of the four guards to Zhenyuan Mansion in Guizhou. According to the plan drawn up earlier, the Hunan direction that Wu Guogui was in charge of should attack first.
Although Wu Guogui only had four guards with a total of 20,000 soldiers and horses, which was the smallest number of the three-way army sent by Wu Sangui, Hunan was also not the focus of the Qing army's defense, and there were many local green battalion leaders and local heroes who might raise troops to respond to Wu Guogui.
In addition, the two Guangxi are currently under the management of Wu Guogui. Although Wu Sangui excludes Wu Shilin from his circle after Wang Zhongxiao forced him to death. But Wu Guogui is Wang Zhongxiao's father-in-law after all, and he still hopes to pull the Wang family father and son back to the old Wu family.
Therefore, Wu Guogui brought Wu Yuanyi, who was previously sent by Wang Zhongxiao to Yungui to develop the Heaven and Earth Society, to his command, and even brought the "Wu Ji Heaven and Earth Society" that Wu Yuanyi and Wu Shijue had together into his jurisdiction. And Wu Yuanyi himself was recently sent by him to Guangdong to contact Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao.
These things reported by Wu Guogui in the Tang Daily were wholesaled from this Wu Yuanyi.
Wu Sangui sighed, then looked around.
Wu Yingqi, Fang Guangchen, Liu Xuanchu, Xia Guoxiang, Hu Zhuguo, Wang Shirong, these Wu Sangui's henchmen are all discussing with him today, and when they saw Lao Wu's gaze, they began to speak one by one.
Wu Yingqi, who had just worshiped General Pingbei, snorted coldly and said: "This Wang Zhongxiao is really bold, he is not satisfied with marrying Xiao Su, and he actually occupies Xiao Gang, Xiao Jiang is the daughter of the prince, and sooner or later he will be crowned a princess!" It is really unheard of to occupy a princess as a concubine! ”
Hu Zhuguo smiled and said, "This little Lu Bu is the same as his father, and he is good at this. I heard that Wang Fuchen occupied Kong Sizhen, Sun Yanling hated it so much, and he wanted to find trouble with Wang Fuchen when he practiced every day in Liuzhou City! ”
Wang Shirong, who has a good personal relationship with Wang Fuchen, suggested: "Lord Wang, although Wang Fuchen, Wang Shikai and his son are talented, but looking at what they do, it seems that they are really greedy for money and lustful, and it should be their ambition to seize Guangdong." It is better for the prince to lure him with the position of the king of the Guangdong domain! ”
"Give them the vassal king of Guangdong? What about Shang Kexi and Shang Zhixin? Wu Sangui asked with a frown.
He is now also actively courting Shang and Geng Erfan to defect.
If the vassal king of Guangdong is given to Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao, then Shang Kexi and Shang Zhixin will be gone?
"Lord Wang," Fang Guangchen said with a smile, "There is only one vassal king in Guangdong, and there is only one Kong Sizhen. Let them fight for it! What if Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao win? Isn't there Sun Jiqing, Wang Zhongxiao, and Wang Jizhen? When they are all done, you have already leveled the world, and when the time comes, will the Wang family still be able to fight the world with two Guangzhous? ”
Wu Sangui was still a little undecided, that Wu Yuanyi had secretly reported to him that the third prince of Zhu was by Wang Zhongxiao's side.
Now Wu Sangui's "Revival of the Ming Dynasty President Xiwang" is still sealed by the third prince of Zhu!
Theoretically, it was not he Wu Sangui who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao!
However, Wu Sangui didn't want to get the third prince Zhu into his hands - it was not easy to arrange!
Although some people don't mind being Emperor Ming Xian, Wu Sangui doesn't want to bear Wu Mengde's infamy anymore, rather than arranging a top boss for himself, it is better to admit that Wang Yongkang is the third prince of Zhenzhu.
In this way, Wu Sangui was ordered by the third prince of Zhu to raise troops to attack the Qing Dynasty, and the name of righteousness was also counted. But if Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao brought out the third prince of Zhenzhu after pacifying Liangguang, he seemed to be a little difficult.
When Wu Sangui was embarrassed, Liu Xuanchu sighed and slowly spoke: "Lord Wang, there is only one son in the world."
Wu Sangui was stunned, and then realized that he hadn't thought about Wu Yingxiong from beginning to end!
Although this son is his son-in-law, he has been a hostage in Beijing since he was a child, and the relationship between father and son is really a bit weak!
Wu Sangui nodded and said, "Tell the boss the news, you have to listen to him about this. Alas, Shifan and Xiaogang are his sons and daughters after all! He also had a hard life, his family was ruined, his son-in-law was killed, and the remaining son was either imprisoned by Kangxi or controlled by Wang Datou. Several daughters have also been redeemed if Shi Fan, and he can have someone around him to take care of him. ”
"Yes." Xia Guoxiang agreed, and then took out another copy from Wu Yingxiong, "Lord Wang, the prince has reported good news here, and Li Laishun and Liu Yihu, the remnants of the original Kuidong Thirteen Families who were appeased by him, have successfully moved in Lizhou a few days ago, and now they have controlled Lizhou and Shimen County!" The eldest brother wants to ask for a general soldier for this Li Laishun and Liu Yihu.
In addition, the prince also wanted to ask the third master to send troops as soon as possible to attract the main force of the Huguang Qing army to Hunan, so that he could send people to attack Xiangyang! ”
"Kui Dongyu Party. Isn't that Li Zicheng's person? Wu Sangui looked disgusted, "It's okay. Let's take advantage of it! named Li Laishun as the chief soldier of Lizhou, and Liu Yihu as the chief soldier of Shimen! ”
Xia Guoxiang then said: "Father, recently, the copies of the Di newspaper we collected from Huguang and Liangguang all said that Kangxi was going to follow the example of Emperor Cao Rui of Wei Ming to come to Xi'an to take the town!" In addition, Kangxi also aimed to recruit poor Han households in six provinces, including Zhili, Shanxi, Shandong, Shaanxi, Henan, and Gansu, to serve as Eight Banner Households in Liaodong. It is also ready to release 10 million acres of Liaodong wasteland for these farmers to cultivate! ”
"What?" Wu Sangui was stunned for a moment, "What does this little emperor want to do?" For a while, I have to learn from Cao Rui, and for a while, I have to recruit the Eight Banners to reclaim Liaodong. Does he want to fight or run? ”
"Father, I'm afraid Kangxi is not making double preparations, right?" Wu Yingqi said, "The reclamation of Liaodong must be seeking a way out!" Liaodong has been abandoned for twenty or thirty years, and it is not easy to reclaim it. So this retreat has to be planned early! As for learning Cao Rui"
Seeing that his son was deep in thought, Wu Sangui asked with a smile: "Second brother, what method did Zhuge Liang want to use to deal with Cao Rui's royal expedition in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" at the beginning? ”
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms?" Wu Yingqi was familiar with the Three Kingdoms, so he immediately took over the question and said, "Isn't Zhuge Liang's way to deal with Cao Rui is to lose the street pavilion and empty the city?" Father, this time the street pavilion will be handed over to Shi Cong to guard, and Shi Cong promises to keep it! ”
Wu Sangui almost didn't amuse this living treasure son, "Second brother, do you really want to fight according to "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"? ”
"Father, did you ask Zhuge Liang how he dealt with Cao Rui?" Wu Yingqi looked wronged.
Fang Guangchen on the side shook his head and said, "What does the prince mean is how Zhuge Liang planned the Northern Expedition in "Longzhong Pair"? ”
""Longzhong Pair"? How so? Wu Yingqi couldn't remember it for a while.
Fang Guangchen said: "Second master, this is what is said in "Longzhong Pair": If there is a change in the world, then a general will be ordered to take the army of Jingzhou to Xiang Wan and Luo, and the general will lead the people of Yizhou out of Qinchuan. If this is the case, then the hegemony can be achieved, and the Han family can be prosperous.
Lord Wang, do you want the prince to be this general, and to bring the army of Huguang and eastern Sichuan to Xiangwan? ”
Wu Sangui nodded: "Since Kangxi is going to enter the customs, then the elite of the Tartars will definitely follow. And Hunan was attacked by Lao San and Kui Dongyu, and the main force of Huguang Tartar will definitely go south to Hunan, and Hubei will be empty at that time. The boss just happened to cut down the army of Kuizhou, and Xiangyang has an internal response, so he will definitely be able to take it with one drum. Once Xiangyang is taken by us, the boss will be in the Central Plains! ”
Wu Yingxiong shocked the Central Plains?
This thing. Is it reliable?
The military generals who were discussing with Wu Sangui couldn't help frowning.
They all know that Wu Sangui is cultivating his heir, Wu Yingqi made his first contribution in the last "Daguan Town-Rongxi Bridge Battle", and in the next battle of Qishan, he will fight the vanguard with his son Wu Shicong, and he will fight again, he is "Wu Shimin"!
And Wu Sangui was reluctant to let his eldest son Wu Yingxiong end up with "Wu Jiancheng", so he has been deliberately cultivating Wu Yingxiong these days, not only letting him take charge of himself, but also helping him recruit six guards, and also letting Guo Zhuangtu, Wang Pingfan, Wu Zhimao, Han Daren, and Gao Dejie go to Kuizhou to assist him. If you add the forces of Tan Hong, the Ma family in Zhongzhou and the thirteen families of Kuidong, plus Wu Guogui who is cooperating in Hunan. Wu Yingxiong's grasp of the earthquake in the Central Plains is still quite large.
Of course, if Wu Sangui asks Wu Shicong to go to Kuizhou, this will be even more certain!
But in this way, Wu Yingxiong is dead.
Thinking of this, Wu Sangui's civil and military generals, including Wu Yingqi, were all silent.
Kuizhou Mansion, Fengjie County.
Fengjie County in Kuizhou in the Ming and Qing dynasties was a big county that prospered twice - once in the Ming Dynasty, and then prospered again after filling Sichuan in Huguang.
The reason why Fengjie, which is surrounded by mountains and rivers, can be prosperous twice is mainly because it is the throat of goods entering and leaving Sichuan!
However, now there are few people in Sichuan, and there are no goods to fight Kuizhou, and Fengjie, the capital city of Kuizhou, will inevitably become an empty "empty city".
However, in the past two or three months, this "empty city" has suddenly become lively again, and the huge county town is crowded with soldiers and generals who have driven from all over Yunnan Province and Sichuan - this is the soldiers and horses of Wu Yingxiong's "Six Guards of the East Palace", and the elite soldiers and strong generals of Yishui!
According to Wu Sangui's arrangement, these six Wei Tunzhuang are currently arranged in Chongqing Mansion and Kuizhou Mansion, and in the future, Wu Yingxiong will eat Hubei, and then come to the Wei Office to split and Huguang to fill Sichuan, while demolishing six new Wei to occupy Jingxiang's territory, and then from Jingxiang to fill the vacancy of Chongqing and Kuizhou Tunzhuang.
In this way, the number of guards under Wu Yingxiong will increase to twelve!
Even if Wu Yingqi lays down the guanzhong here, he is sure that he can take the throne.
When Wang Shirong, the strategist sent by Wu Sangui, came to Kuizhou Mansion with Wu Sangui's decree and Wu Guogui's news about Wu Shifan and Wu Xiaogang, Wu Yingxiong was in his study, holding Wu Shifan and Wu Xiaogang's letters, and saw tears rippling!
It turned out that Wang Zhongxiao had already asked Wu Shifan and Wu Xiaogang to write a letter to their father and sent it to Kuizhou Mansion through Wu Guogui's channels.
In the letter, Wu Shifan and Wu Xiaogang talked about how the mansion in Shihu Hutong was raided, how they were saved, and how Wang Zhongxiao treated them well.
But treat well to be kind, Wu Xiaogang still has to be a concubine for Wang Zhongxiao!
Wu Shifan made this point clear in the letter, and when Wu Xiaogang is two or three years older, he will become Wang Zhongxiao's concubine!
As for Wu Shifan himself, Wang Zhongxiao is also ready to be released, but now Hunan has not been controlled by Wu Guogui, and Wang Fuchen's father and son's plate in Guangdong is not big, which is really a little inconvenient, so I will leave him in Guangdong first, but he is definitely not a hostage.
If Wu Shifan was not a hostage, Wu Yingxiong didn't believe it, but he didn't have the idea of returning his son immediately.
Because of Wu Xiaofu and Wu Xiaojiang, Wu Shifan's safety is not a problem. It's him here, in case he can't take Jingxiang, and Wu Yingqi successfully defeats Guanzhong, it will be a bit of a problem!
There are no fathers and sons, let alone brothers!
He was crying here, and his henchman Guo Zhuangtu walked in quickly from outside, and when he saw Wu Yingxiong shedding tears, he was stunned: "Lord Shizi, you are"
Wu Yingxiong hurriedly wiped his tears, and his expression became serious again, "I'm fine, I'm sitting in the study, and there is dust outside, and the sand is blowing inside my eyes!" ”
Sand and dust in Kuizhou, Sichuan?
Of course, Guo Zhuangtu knew that it was impossible, but he didn't expose Wu Yingxiong, but arched his hand and said: "Lord Shizi, Liu Yihu has arrived." ”
"Arrived? So fast? Wu Yingxiong was stunned.
"Of course it's coming soon," Guo Zhuangtu said with a smile, "Changle County in the southwest of Shinan Mansion and Yichang Mansion has already surrendered to us, he just needs to hurry up this way, can he not be fast?" ”
Huguang's "anti-feelings" have made progress every day, especially after the Lizhou Uprising, Shinan, Yongshun, and Yichang, which are also affected by the Thirteen Kuidong Families, have surged all of a sudden.
These territories are inherently "broken", with a lot of water, high mountains, dense forests, and many valleys, so it is naturally easy to raise separatist forces!
When the Qing army encircled and suppressed the thirteen families in Kuidong, it was mainly to attack Li Zicheng's remnants, and for the local snakes in Kuidong, they could recruit An, otherwise the war would not be finished for ten or twenty years.
So as soon as Kuizhou fell into the hands of Wu Sangui, Kuidong Qunhao was ready to move, and when Liu Yihu and Li Laishun succeeded in raising troops in Lizhou, what were the others waiting for? Wait until the rebellion is over!
So it's all reversed!
Although Liu Yihu is a remnant of the camp, he has lived in Kuidong for more than 20 years, and he has long been familiar with the local snakes. So this road is not only unimpeded, but also helps Li Zicheng find many old or old ones.
Li Zicheng's power is getting bigger and bigger!
However, Wu Yingxiong still doesn't know that Li Zicheng has been "resurrected".
There is only one problem he has on his mind now, that is, to seize the "Jingxiang Nine Counties", otherwise his father will not love him!
"Hurry up, hurry up and invite Brother Liu Yihu!" Thinking of this, Wu Yingxiong had already forgotten all the things about his children's affection.
Liu Yihu is really like a dream these days!
Although he survived the collapse of the Thirteen Families in Kuidong, he only hid in the mountains for so many years, and never thought that one day the power of the Great Shun Dynasty would make a comeback!
But now, a miracle has happened!
Just when he left Lizhou, the Juntian Prefecture and the two military systems had already swept through Lizhou like a burning prairie!
Lizhou is relatively Yunnan-Guichuan, which is definitely more people and less land, and the folk customs of the Hunan barbarians are also strong, compared with Shaanxi. Therefore, as soon as the military system of Juntian Prefecture came, the poor people who had been "looking forward to rebellion" for a long time all joined the gang like crazy. When he goes back, it is estimated that the land in Lizhou will not be enough for the government soldiers to divide.
And in the area of Kuidong, there is a riot of heroes, and everyone is waiting for this day!
Now it's up to Wu Yingxiong to do what he plans to do!
Liu Yihu, who was thinking of good things, had already followed Guo Zhuangtu into the lobby with a meteor, and looked up to see a fat man in a yellow robe and a yellow hat, knowing that it was Wu Yingxiong, he hurriedly bowed his head and bowed: "Chen Yihu knocks on the prince to see the prince of the world is a thousand years old!" He paused, and without waiting for Wu Yingxiong to speak, he said to himself: "Lord Shizi, let's quickly send troops to kill the Tartars, right?" The brothers at the bottom can't wait! ”
