Kangxi has really become a frightened bird this time!

Although the 30,000-strong army led by Li Yat-sen left Zou County early this morning and went north to Qufu, Zou County was 40 miles away from Qufu, and he had to cross a Yi River. Even if Li Yat-sen's army marched in a hurry, it would not reach the Confucian Palace in the south of Qufu until around evening.

It's still a few hours away!

And Kangxi's new army stationed in the Confucian Mansion is 5,000 people from Mahada and 1,000 people from Sun Sike, which are all elite divisions, and they are not at all comparable to Shang Shuying's two or three hundred old soldiers and Kong Yinzheng's six hundred dead soldiers.

And although Kong Shenggong has 10,000 families under him, these families have no combat experience at all, and they don't have much determination to fight - Qufu Kong family, the first surrender family in the world, whoever will surrender whom, the family or something is to prevent bandits, and the rogues can't deal with it if they become bigger. How dare they fight against the Qing Emperor? Whether this can be won or not is secondary, even if it is really won, it will not end well. With a sharp weapon, the murderous heart rises, the heavy soldier in his hand, and the heart rises from the heart!

If the soldiers of the Confucian family in Qufu really defeated Kangxi, even if Kong Shenggong is not the emperor, then the level must be according to the Roman archpope (referring to the very authoritative pope), right? Even if Kong Yuqi didn't have that mind, Li Zhongshan couldn't believe him.

Therefore, if the Confucian family in Qufu wants to keep their wealth for 2,000 years, they have to maintain a cowardly, weak and spineless "family design".

After all, this "iron bone" must be linked to combat effectiveness, you can't ask the Confucian family not to practice martial arts, not to set up armaments, not to build city defenses, and when the catastrophe comes, they can die generously one by one, right? Do you want this IQ to match the surname Kong? And if the Confucian family has a strong armament and a strong city defense, what is the difference between him and the Holy Duke of Kong, and the father of the Pope of Rome who rules the papal state?

Is such a holy prince tolerated by China's imperial power and imperial court?

Therefore, Kong Yuqi would rather hand over the Zhongyoutang in his hand to Shang Shuying and let her take risks to make meritorious contributions, rather than be a "leading saint".

If Kangxi really wanted to lead his troops into Qufu to set up defenses, Kong Yuqi would abandon the city at most, and he would never confront Kangxi.

But Kangxi, who has become a frightened bird, is Ao Bai and Kong Shenggong rebelled together, and 30,000 Ming troops are murderous, and there are unknown numbers of Ming troops in the west, east, and north of Qufu, and he was defeated in the Battle of Zou County before, by the way, there are tens of thousands of Ming troops who have returned to the territory of Zhili and are marching to Beijing City, and there is also a scheming Uncle Yang Guo who is also leading tens of thousands of troops to enter Beijing!

And the army in Kangxi's hands is not only newly defeated, but also a tired army, and the unfavorable factors are stacked, where does he dare to stay in the Confucian Mansion?

But Kangxi didn't realize that he was leaving. His general trend is gone!

In the northeast corner of the Confucian Palace, there is a particularly secluded and sturdy house, and the road leading to it is very winding and narrow, with tall courtyard walls on both sides, and occasionally a few heavy wooden doors that are closed.

At this time, all parts of the courtyard were already in a mess, and the sounds of shouting and killing, gunshots, and cries came one after another, which made people frightened. But the northeast corner of the annex seems to have been forgotten.

Ding Fei, a Confucian family, also ran through the twisting passage, and soon came to the closed gate at the end of the passage. I only saw that the courtyard walls on both sides of this gate were built very high, as high as the city wall in the northeast corner of the Confucian Palace!

Without waiting for the housekeeper to knock on the door, the closed door opened a crack for a person to enter and exit, and the housekeeper slipped into it, and then the door closed again.

When the man entered the house, he first bypassed a very tall wall, and then came to the front of a hall, the door of which was open, but the light inside was still not very good, so he lit a lot of candles. In the candlelight, many elderly men wearing "Confucian costumes" and hoods sat on both sides, and on the main seat in the room sat a very well-dressed Confucian Shenggong Kong Yuqi.

"Holy Father," the family Ding reported loudly, "the emperor has already left the other courtyard city through the north gate under the protection of the deputy capital of Mahada!" ”

"Thank goodness!"

"That's great."

"Ancestor bless!"

"Holy Father, is it time for us to prepare to welcome the new Lord?"

The men wearing hoods and Confucian clothes in the hall are all members of the Confucian family in Qufu, and when they learned early this morning that the soldiers of the Great Ming Dynasty had left Zou County and were about to arrive in Qufu, which was loyal to the Ming Dynasty, they immediately changed into "Confucian clothes" and gathered in the "safe house" of the Confucian Shenggong in the courtyard, ready to welcome the Ming Dynasty together. However, because they were not sure whether Kangxi would fight to the death in the Confucian Mansion, these filial sons and grandsons of the Confucian saints were a little nervous.

Now that they heard that Kangxi had left, they all breathed a sigh of relief and began to make suggestions to welcome the new master.

However, Kong Shenggong Kong Yuqi was not in a hurry at all. As a great surrenderer who has studied "surrender" for many years, he has already arranged everything The reason why the Ming army can go north so quickly is because he has prepared enough grain and grass for the Ming army in Nishan! And before Shang Shuying made a move, he sent someone to contact the Ming army in Zou County. Not to mention, he also helped Shang Shuying assassinate Kangxi!

He can't admit this on his face, but he understands everything. This is "Tou Ming", they all helped kill Kangxi, Tou Ming's position is firm enough, right?

In addition, Zhong Youtang's 600 dead soldiers do not need to return to the Confucian family in the future, so they can follow Shang Shuying into the Mongolian East India Trading Company, so that they can go to the Western Regions or the New World to spread Confucianism in the future!

Of course, to what extent the Confucian family should be involved in this matter outside the Confucian domain, we have to listen to the general.

In short, the attitude of the Qufu Kong family to surrender is very good, and it is also very useful after surrendering, as long as the new master can control Qufu all the time, there is no need to worry about the Kong family being disloyal.

Because the Confucian family has always had a tradition of only surrendering, not rebelling

Thinking of this, Kong Yuqi spoke: "Don't be in a hurry about welcoming the new master. Although Kangxi is gone, Sun Sike has not left, as long as he is still resisting, the Confucian Mansion has not been completely occupied by the Ming army, then we will wait. ”

He didn't want to share the credit with Shang Shuying. The credit is all Shang Shuying's, so he should be a behind-the-scenes hero! Although Li Zhongshan must know what is going on, as long as he does not take a little credit, the "family design" of the Kong family will not change.

"Holy Father, there are few soldiers in the Ming Dynasty," an elder of the Kong family (the head of a certain house) immediately reminded, "What if you can't beat Sun Sike?" ”

"How can you not beat it?" Kong Yuqi said, "Although Shang Shuying is a woman, she is as brave as her father, and Sun Sike only has a thousand people, how can she beat her 800 dead soldiers?" Let's wait for Shang Shuying to win! ”

Several elders of the Kong family saw Kong Yuqi's fully grasped appearance, and they didn't want to ask anything anymore - this holy prince guarded the bottom line of the "surrender family" on the surface, but he did something out of the ordinary in private!

You still don't know anything, right?

"Phew!"

With the sound of a gunshot, Shang Shuying, who was holding a spear, knocked out another Qing soldier. This is already the tenth today! Shang Shuying, who is "addicted to food", is like a Valkyrie possessed today, and no Qing soldier can walk through three moves in her hands! Usually after one or two moves, the Qing army on the opposite side is either a headshot or a mini bullet from nowhere.

It seems that "summoning bullets" is the real trick of spear fighting!

Of course, it is not Shang Shuying who is "if there is Kong Help" today, Kong Yinzheng, Wang Guodong, and Li Tianzhi are all unstoppable, and the other "dead soldiers of the Shang family" are all very encouraged when they see that their leaders are so powerful, and they fight hard to kill, and after a while, they will kill less than 500 people under Sun Sike and Ma Jinliang!

Seeing that the signs of the road were not good, and the reinforcements were delayed, Sun Sike had no intention of fighting, so he wanted to run away quickly, but before he could leave the "forum", he was stopped by a woman who played with a big gun: "Sun Sike, Shang Shuying under General Li is here!" ”

"Shang Shuying? How can you die for the murder of your father's enemy? "Sun Sike actually met Shang Shuying, but she was still young at that time, and she was not so graceful. That's why he didn't recognize it, and now that she has reported herself, of course he remembers to know who she is?

Shang Shuying smiled: "Isn't it my family's family style to kill my father's enemy?" My grandfather, my uncle, and my brothers and sisters who couldn't enter the family tree, weren't they all killed by the Qing soldiers? Daddy has a part in this, right? Come, let's fight to the death today! ”

Shang Kexi's father and elder brother were both killed in battle with the Qing army (Later Jin Army), and his early family members stayed in Lushun and were all killed when the Qing army broke through Lushun!

In that battle, Sun Degong, Kong Youde, and Geng Zhongming all had a share!

But Shang Kexi is able to bend and stretch, and the revenge of killing his father and destroying the door, why worry about it? Later, he worked hard for the Qing Dynasty wholeheartedly, but there was no intention of discounting!

Now Shang Shuying also has a virtue with her father, and she works hard for Li Zhongshan wholeheartedly, and there is no discount at all, this is to kill the service, the killing is afraid, and at the same time, she also recognizes the reality, the Shang family wants to survive and develop, and the family wants to live a good life, so they have to work for Li Zhongshan, the master!

This is actually the way for those warlords and politicians to survive in troubled times. Warlords and politicians will not be happy to take revenge, that's what chivalrous people do! And the actions of people like Shang Kexi and Shang Shuying are all for the interests of the Shang family and the Shang warlord group.

When Sun Sike heard this, he also knew that he had to fight to the death today, but his right hand was already injured, and he had no choice but to take a spear from a personal soldier with his left hand, and with a roar, he leveled the spear and pointed it at Shang Shuying's chest, and then rushed forward!

Shang Shuying also leveled the spear and had a hedge with Sun Sike - this is a life-fighting style! Seeing that both of their chests were about to be pierced by each other's spears, a ball of blood suddenly burst out on Sun Sike's left arm! Seeing that Shang Shuying's spear was about to arrive, Sun Sike knew that it was over, so he had to endure the severe pain and raise his right arm to block it, and at the same time his body leaned to the right, but he still beat it slowly, only to hear a pop, the tip of the spear had pierced Sun Sike's right shoulder, and at the same time cut a deep wound on his right arm

The severe pain and the impact on the spear, Sun Sike couldn't even stand on his feet, and fell to the ground on his back, Shang Shuying took out the spear, raised it high and slapped it violently, the horizontal blade of the spear pierced Sun Sike's body again, and opened a big blood groove on his chest, and the blood gushed out, and he was not alive when he saw it.

Seeing Sun Sike falling, Shang Shuying shouted excitedly: "Sun Sike will die, the rest of the people can descend, and those who descend will not die!" ”

Just when Sun Sike died in battle for the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi, who fled first regardless of the people under him, had fled north in a hurry under the protection of Mahada, Tu Lichen, Zhao Chang, Liang Jiucheng and other courtiers and thousands of cavalry, and had already passed Qufu City.

And as soon as Kangxi ran away like this, it was not Sun Sike who was killed, even the infantry stationed around the Confucian Mansion who were defeated from the front line one after another, as well as the new army of Zhengbai Banner who was still able to fight, also suffered together.

The emperor ran away, the Confucian Mansion and Qufu City changed hands, and the Ming army brigade came. Who still has the will to fight to the death? Run, if you run slowly, you'll die!

And although Kangxi's army suffered heavy losses in the previous battle of Jiehe-Beishahe, after all, it was a large army of 100,000 people, and it was not so easy to defeat the dignified formation.

The troops who entered the south of the Jiehe River with Kangxi that day, and finally withdrew, there were more than 30,000 people, and the rest were not wiped out, a considerable part of them were scattered, if Kangxi could hold for a few more days, it would not be certain that he would return to the team for one or two thousand.

In addition, the new army of Zhengbai Banner performed well, relying on the method of breaking the bridge and relying on the river, delaying the attack of 50,000 Ming troops, preserving most of the strength, and when it withdrew to the vicinity of the Confucian Palace, there were still about 8,000 people left, so they were sent to the palace army. As a result, they were about to make a slight comparison with the 30,000 Ming troops who went north, and the tens of thousands of people behind them suddenly collapsed.

At this time, the new army of Zhengbai Banner also panicked, and lost the mind of fighting, 8,000 people turned around and ran, but they were chased and killed by the cavalry of the Ming army all the way, and the dead bodies were spread all the way from the south of the Confucian Mansion to the Yihe River.

When they reached the river, they found that several pontoon bridges on the river had been burned by the troops who had fled before!

Many panicked Qing soldiers wanted to cross the Yi River, but they were shot by the Ming army when they were crossing, with countless casualties, the blood stained the river red, and the corpses were about to block the river!

And the Qing army that passed through the river was not much better, there are still 120 miles from Qufu to Dongping, and under normal circumstances, you have to walk for at least two days!

And the Changwei Legion of the Ming Army had already ambushed two divisions in the middle of the road. These two divisions did not ambush Kangxi's cavalry - thousands of cavalry are not easy to catch on the plain, and the Qing infantry following behind is their "dish" - the two Ming infantry divisions also include two battalions of cavalry, almost 2,000 cavalry!

The infantry ambushed, and the cavalry pursued and killed, and the 120 miles from Qufu to Dongping had to be covered with corpses!

The news that Emperor Kangxi's army suffered another crushing defeat on the way from Qufu to Dongping was soon seen by the scouts sent by Prince Gong Changning, and brought the news back to the "Empress Xing" in the Daleng Fort in Dongping Prefecture.

Prince Gong and Empress Yang are now living together in the "Queen Xing", uncle and sister-in-law, that is really good!

Of course, Prince Gong has not officially "taken over" his sister-in-law yet, he just takes a "number" and waits for his brother to reach - his goal is not only to inherit his sister-in-law, but also to inherit the throne!

After getting the news of Kangxi's fiasco again, Prince Gong Changning rushed to Empress Yang's dormitory, shouting as he walked: "Queen, queen, the emperor may be gone, the Qing Dynasty can't do without the emperor, and you can't do without the emperor. What should I do about this? You've got an idea! ”
