"Lord Wang, this is Liu Bang's entry into Han Xinjun!" Bahai immediately knew what Kangxi was thinking, don't look at this Guerjia. Ba Hai is five big and three thick, and he has also served as the head of Ningguta and the general of Heilongjiang for a long time, but he is actually a second-generation cultural person, and he was a bachelor in the secretary in his early years, and he knows a lot of historical allusions.

Chang Ning doesn't like to read very much, listening to what Ba Hai said "Liu Bang joins Han Xinjun", he immediately thought of Liu Bang's Youyun Mengze, and thought that Kangxi was going to arrest himself to death, his little face turned white with fright, and he looked at Ba Hai in horror: "He, he, he wants rabbits and dogs to cook, and birds are all hidden!" ”

As soon as Ba Hai heard this, he knew that Chang Ning had misunderstood, so he quickly shook his hand and said, "No, not to the prince, where can you compare with Han Xin?" Liu Bang is afraid of Han Xin's rebellion, but the emperor is not afraid of your rebellion, and you haven't done anything against him all these years, so why does he need to get rid of you? ”

But I'm thinking about my sister-in-law. Isn't this a sin less than Han Shin? Han Xin didn't covet Queen Lu's "beauty" anymore, right? Chang Ningxin said: You stupid Bahai doesn't know about this, but Xuan Ye, a ruthless thing, must know!

Seeing that Chang Ning was still afraid, Bahai hurriedly comforted again: "Lord Wang, you are still the head of the princes of the Qing Dynasty, and now that the enemy is present, even if we are united in the Qing Dynasty, we may not be able to gain the upper hand." If the emperor dares to take down the prince like Liu Bang when he traveled to Yunmengze, then the princes of the Qing Dynasty will not fall apart? At that time, even if Li Zhongshan's Northern Expeditionary Army of the Ming Dynasty cut off the grain route, it could still rely on the grain and grass provided by the Qing princes who defected to the Qing Dynasty and went north to Yanjing! ”

Or Bahai analyzed it thoroughly!

After Kangxi overthrew Fuquan, in order to unite the Manchu and Han military leaders who had become warlords, and at the same time to expand the army at low cost, he had to delegate power to the military leaders and make them princes. Most of the territories that Kangxi gave to these princes were in Shandong, Henan, Shanxi and the south of Zhili, which regarded them as a meat shield against the Ming Dynasty and Wu Zhou.

Of course, in order to enhance the enthusiasm of the meat shields, Kangxi also carved out a large area of land in Southern Mongolia, Northern Mongolia and Northeast China, and let the meat shields build a military state as their retreat.

And Prince Gong Changning was a general of Shengjing before he threw himself from Fuquan to Kangxi's side, and he had a lot of troops at hand, second only to Kangxi and Fuquan in strength, after the fall of Fuquan, he naturally became the first prince of the Qing Dynasty, with Dengzhou Mansion in Shandong Province and Jinzhou Mansion on the Liaodong Peninsula, and also named the banner master of the Zhenglan Banner, with 51 leaders under the Zhenglan flag (200 households per leader), and two brigades of the Green Battalion New Army, a proper prince!

Although Yang Qilong's strength had surpassed Changning after taking the Korean state, he became the de facto lord of the Qing Dynasty, and his status was similar to that of the Golden Horde, and he could no longer be regarded as a prince of the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, the number one prince of the Qing Dynasty still loves Xinjueluo. Changning!

Now Kangxi has to unite the princes if he wants to resist the Ming Dynasty, otherwise relying on Kangxi's own strength, not counting the people and horses who stayed in Taiping Valley, just on the local side of the Qing Dynasty, even the soldiers Ding and the people, it is too much to make up 150,000, how can it be possible to fight against the "800,000 heavenly soldiers" of the Ming Dynasty?

And it is impossible for Kangxi to consume his strength to carry the thunder for the princes below! Why did he put those princes in Shanxi, Henan, and Shandong? Aren't you just counting on them to stand up for a while when Da Ming and Wu Zhou come over?

So Kangxi now has to coax and pull and force the princes below. Thinking of the word "forced", Chang Ning suddenly felt like waking up from a dream!

Kangxi sent people to pick up the Taoyuankou dam of the Yellow River, the first was of course to cut off Li Zhongshan's grain route, and the second was to force him, Changning, a good brother, to take the Qing princes to fight with the Ming Dynasty!

"Ba Hai," Chang Ning looked at Ba Hai with a gloomy face, "Then what should I do?" ”

Ba Hai frowned and thought hard: "Lord Wang, now the emperor's methods are getting older and hotter. Now that everyone has arrived in Weihui, it is impossible for you to lead the troops back to the domain, I'm afraid you can only go to Weihui's camp to see the driver! ”

Chang Ning sighed, and just wanted to complain, but his guard commander handed over a yellow box with an excerpt: "Lord Wang, this is a letter from the emperor to you." ”

"Send a letter? Take it for me to see. ”

Chang Ning took the yellow box, tore the seal on it, took out a yellow fold from it, opened it and looked at it, it seemed that after a while, his face turned blue.

"Lord Wang, what's the matter?" Bahai asked.

"He asked me to go to Songji Town, Kao County, below Weihui Mansion, to meet the driver."

"Kaoxian Song Collection"

Bahai's face is also a little ugly, Kao County is an enclave of Weihui Mansion, and it is not next to other territories of Weihui Mansion, but borders Kaifeng Mansion, Daimyo, Guide Mansion, and Caozhou Mansion.

And Songji Town, Kao County, is on the edge of the Yellow River, opposite Taoyuankou!

What does Kangxi mean by summoning Chang Ning at the scene of the crime? Do you want Changning to kowtow to the people of Henan to apologize?

Thinking of this, he could only look at Chang Ning with a bitter face: "Lord Wang. I'm afraid I can't do it if I don't go! ”

Chang Ning gritted his teeth: "Go!" I want to see Xuan Ye's face! ”

Weihui Mansion, Kao County, Songji, under the Yellow River Dam, there is a scene of slaughter.

The New Army of the Eight Banners, the Green Battalion, the Mongol warriors, and the Sauron Iron Cavalry and the Balhu Cavalry from between the White Mountains and the Black Water were just standing under the embankment. The armor is neat, and the bayonets are cold.

They were the strongest force of the Qing Empire, which had inherited the legal system of the Great Mongols. Although the Qing Dynasty has inevitably declined sharply since the revival of the Ming Dynasty, which only had one breath left to hang and did not break, the military strength of the Qing Dynasty was courageous because of the defeat of Kangxi, and it was carried out in a big way to carry out the "Ming Affairs Movement", and to engage in "Ming as a teacher" and "Shi Ming to control Ming", which has risen significantly, and even exceeded the strongest state when the Qing Dynasty first entered the customs!

Now you are letting the old wicked people of Huang Taiji, Dolgon, and Duoduo all come back from the eighteenth layer of hell, and you can't do the new army that Emperor Kangxi has at hand with a large amount of plummeting and the popularization of flintlock pistols. Hehe, no matter how fierce the wicked are, they will be sent away with one shot!

Times have changed, but Kangxi is not Daoguang, Xianfeng, or Guangxu after all, and the Qing Dynasty under his rule can still keep up with the changes!

But the problem is that before the Qing Dynasty caught up with the times, it had already lost most of China and at least 70 million people, and most of the land and population it lost fell into the hands of the emerging republican Ming!

Now the population of the Ming Dynasty is three times that of the Qing Dynasty, and the financial resources are ten times that of the Qing Dynasty. Moreover, the military mobilization ability of the Ming Dynasty also completely destroyed the princes and people of the Qing Dynasty. This national republic is a direct connection between the state and the people, and there are no middlemen. And the princes are united, isn't there still a bunch of big and small princes who have a layer of skin in the middle? This group of princes, big and small, are now on the dam, followed by Emperor Kangxi, Prince Gong Changning, and Emperor Zhou Emperor Uncle Han King Wu Sanwei, looking south together!

To the south of the dam on the north bank of the Yellow River, of course, is the overflowing Yellow River!

The embankment around the mouth of the Taoyuan mouth of the Yellow River has already broken a hole several miles wide for the water of the Yellow River, and the water rushing from the upper reaches of the Yellow River is surging out of this wide gap, rushing into the wilderness, and all the villages, forests, fertile fields, and even the Tucheng Tower of Taoyuan Pass near the mouth of Taoyuan have been washed away without a trace. As far as the eye can see, there is only a vast yellow ocean!

Emperor Kangxi's hemp face was full of fake compassion, looking at the endless yellow water, he just kept shaking his head, and couldn't help sighing: "It's really like a wave, the Great Central Plains is flooded, Xing, the people are suffering, dying, the people are suffering!" ”

Well, it's all done! It's really "compassionate"!

Those who don't know the truth still think that the Yellow River dam was not dug by him!

After Emperor Kangxi finished speaking, he glanced back at Chang Ning, who looked ugly as if he had just died of his father, and said in a reproachful tone: "Old Five, I know that what you have done is to protect the Qing Dynasty and protect the country of our bannermen."

But, but. If you do this, you will suffer the people south of the Yellow River!

With such a big water, I don't know how many people will drown, it's really unbearable! Woo."

I cried as I spoke

Looking at Kangxi's face of a cat crying mouse and fake compassion, Chang Ning's anger did not come to one place.

He, Prince Gong, is also well-informed, and he has seen a lot of shameless people, but he has never seen shameless to the extent of Kangxi!

It's obviously a bad thing that he did, but he wants to frame his brother, and he has to pretend to be a good person!

Why is he Chang Ning so miserable? Such a brother on the stall?

"Your Majesty, don't be sad...... For your Daqing and my family's Da Zhou. Just, alas, just suffer the people! This infamy...... It's up to King Gong to bear it! ”

Wu Sangui's cheap younger brother, Wu Sanwei, the "imperial uncle" who has just been promoted to King Han, doesn't know if he is really confused or pretending to be confused?

Anyway, while comforting Kangxi, he also said something in a weird way, "King Gong will bear the infamy......

Kangxi glanced back at his younger brother who looked aggrieved...... Or look at it viciously!

Chang Ning was also trembling, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Huang is right, Your Majesty, the current situation has to suffer from the people, and I will bear the infamy!" ”

Chang Ning's words are equivalent to admitting that he was the one who dug the Taoyuankou dam!

And it was also in front of Wu Sanwei, the emperor of the Great Zhou and Qing Dynasty (Kangxi is Wu Xuanye!) And a vote of the Qing princes said in front of them.

Not to mention jumping into the Yellow River, even if you jump into the Yellow Sea, you won't be able to wash it clean!

Kangxi was finally satisfied, turned his head and said to Wu Sanwei: "Uncle Huang, although Chang Ning did this thing a little hurtful...... However, as soon as the flood flooded in the direction of Xuzhou and the Huai River, the grain route of Li Zhongshan's Northern Expeditionary Army would become a swamp and would be completely impassable.

This war is also a logistical battle! Li Zhongshan's grain road is broken, what else will he fight? What if he had an army of 800,000? The soldiers collapsed without food...... As long as we can hold on for a while, don't let him grab food on the ground in Shandong. Then even if he is Zhuge Kongming's rebirth, he can only retreat from the army in the end! ”

Kangxi said this in a very loud voice, not only Wu Sanwei could hear it clearly, but also the Qing princes who followed behind him could also hear it clearly.

Now everyone knows what Emperor Kangxi is thinking?

He wanted to emulate Sima Zhongda and let Li Yat-sen become Zhuge Kongming...... What was fought was a "war of soldiers and food", and if Li Yat-sen was forced to run out of food, it would be considered a victory!

When Wu Sanwei heard these words, he also nodded again and again: "Your Majesty, you are right!" As soon as the Yellow River flooded, Li Zhongshan's grain would definitely not be able to be transported. All he can hope for now is to be fed to the enemy. ”

Old man Wu also raised his voice: "Your Majesty, you can rest assured...... I, the Great Zhou monarch, are also proficient in the Three Kingdoms. It is a deep knowledge that the Great Zhou and the Qing Dynasty are each other's lips and teeth, and only by holding up the group can they resist the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, both of them will be finished! ”

His words were also for those Qing princes!

Wu Sanwei also has to reassure these princes, let them all follow Kangxi to serve as meat shields and consume the Ming Northern Expeditionary Army.

However, just this statement, Kangxi was still not very satisfied.

The sad Emperor Mazi asked further: "Emperor Uncle Ancestor, what is the plan of my Emperor Uncle Qin?" ”

"Your Majesty, don't worry." Wu San said in fear, "There is such a thing as King Gong picking up the Yellow River, and the Prime Minister will definitely send troops to deal with the Qing Dynasty." After all, it's a post-three kingdom right now! Can Shu Han still watch Dongwu live and let Cao Wei destroy the country? ”

Kangxi looked back at the Qing princes, and said confidently: "With the words of the emperor's uncle, our advantage is even greater!" Now the logistics of the Ming army have been cut off, and they can only barely maintain it by the little food they have on hand.

The Great Zhou Wu Chenxiang is facing us again, and he will soon send troops to help.

In addition, the rear of Daming is also unstable...... I have just received good news from the Japanese side, the Spanish Armada and the Japanese mercenaries have just won a great victory in Pinghu in Jiaxing Province!

There were 20,000 Japanese mercenaries, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the Ming army, and successfully landed! Defeated thousands of defenders, captured Pinghu County in one fell swoop, and captured countless people! Now it is marching to Baoshan County, a commercial port in the southeast of Daming...... This Japanese mercenary is the Japanese of the year! How did the Japanese plague the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty back then, do you all know about it? ”

"Know! This widow could have caused a lot of harm to the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty back then! ”

"That's right, although it's not as good as Emperor Taizong's entry into the customs and plunder...... Well, in short, the southeast of the Ming Dynasty is definitely unstable! ”

"Then Li Zhongshan's military rations are definitely not enough. It seems that we just need to learn Sima Zhongda's tricks to deal with Zhuge Liang, and give him a way to hold on and block it firmly. We're going to win! ”

Seeing that the princes below were very confident, Kangxi's heart finally settled, and he looked back at Prince Gong Changning: "Fifth brother, I know that everything you do is for the good of the Qing Dynasty...... You are the first loyal king of my Qing Dynasty! Why don't we go east together and block Li Zhongshan's way north to Shandong? ”

Although Chang Ning was very reluctant in his heart, he had no choice but to arch his hand in his face: "The younger brother is willing to be the precursor of the imperial brother, break his body and bones, and protect me from the Qing Dynasty!" ”

Seeing that the first prince was so active and loved the Qing Dynasty so much, the other princes on the embankment also expressed their attitudes, and a large group of people bowed down on one knee together and shouted in unison: "The ministers are willing to resist the tyranny with the emperor and Prince Gong, even if they are ruthless!" ”

Kangxi nodded, this is what he wants!

Today, he mobilized so many troops to the Yellow River dam in Songji, Kaoxian County to see the "flooding of the Yellow River", in fact, in order to strengthen everyone's confidence and determination to fight against the Ming Dynasty.

It is to let everyone know that the Qing Dynasty can win, and the hatred between the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty is too deep to be solved!

……

Xuzhou, Jiangsu.

On the tenth day after the dam burst at Taoyuankou, Li Yat-sen finally arrived at the city of Xuzhou, which had been besieged by heavy waters, and stood at the head of Xuzhou with a pale face and stared at the mud outside the city. More than a dozen corps commanders and division commanders of the Northern Expeditionary Army, as well as Zhou Chang, the military division of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and Jin Fu, the governor of the river in charge of logistics and transshipment, all followed Li Zhongshan, all of them full of righteous indignation.

Of course, most of them had already expected Kangxi to play this ruthless game. Replacing soldiers with water is nothing new, and the Qing Dynasty did have this condition to pick up the Yellow River! Kangxi is not a good type, what can't he do when the dog jumps off the wall in a hurry?

Although they knew that Kangxi would do this, this still did not prevent them, the leaders of the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Ming Dynasty, from being angry one by one, looking like they wanted to eat Kangxi alive!

At this time, a general walked quickly to the city tower and handed Zhou Chang a note.

Zhou Chang glanced at it: "General, there is news from the inside line of our operation that Kangxi has arrived at the front line...... And also brought together the generals and Wu Sanwei, the king of the Great Zhou Dynasty, to parade and swear together on the side of the Yellow River on the other side of Taoyuankou! ”

"Damn it, dare to come and see it!" Luo Dawei, the commander of the lieutenant general corps from Huaixi, roared with red eyes on the spot, "General, please let the Huaixi army of the lower officials fight...... My 100,000 Huaixi generals will fight for their lives, and I have to catch this Hulu chief with a thousand cuts! ”

Kangxi's chopping of the Yellow River, although it flooded Li Zhongshan's grain road, also angered the elite of Huaixi!

Luo Dawei, as the leader of the generals of Huaixi, has been shouting and shouting to kill since the Yellow River broke through, and he has also continued to ask Li Zhongshan for battle. One moment to kill Chang Ning, and another moment to kill Kangxi......

"Luo Junmen, don't worry, there is a chance for your Huaixi Army to take revenge!" Li Zhongshan said with a blushing face, "Kangxi actually rushed to send him to death, where do we still have a reason to let him go?" ”

The strength of the generals of the Ming army on the city tower rose, and they all gritted their teeth and shouted.

"Yes, we can't let Kangxi go!"

"Kangxi is a scourge, and it must not be kept."

"The Yellow River dam must have been picked up by him...... Do you still rely on Chang Ning and lie to us as three-year-old children? ”

"General, give the order! Let's go to Kangxi to settle accounts! ”

"General, give the order quickly...... While our military rations are still enough, we must destroy the army brought by Kangxi! ”

Li Zhongshan nodded heavily: "Okay!" Your words are exactly what this general meant...... After we return to the Pizhou camp, we will immediately swear to send troops, kill Kangxi, capture Changning, and destroy the demons! ”
