Chapter 31: Why Do Adults Laugh?

If Niu Wancheng was in front of him, Wang Wutie would definitely give him two big mouths.

Lure Lao Tzu?!

Mom, is it the courage that Baturu gave you!

Half a month ago, Wang Wu would probably be tempted.

Right now?

You see he's still a little like before!

However, the Dingwu Emperor that Niu Wancheng said attracted Wang Wu's great attention, because he didn't know that there was still this emperor in the Ming Dynasty.

If there really is, this Dingwu Emperor will be of great significance!

You must know that the reason why the Ming army in Kuidong continued to surrender was because the news of Yongli's martyrdom reached Kuidong, so that these warriors who had defended Mingzuo in the Three Gorges area and fought for the Han family for 18 years completely lost the confidence to persevere.

To be more precise, it is these warriors who are fighting for some reason, and they don't even know why they are still alive!

The loss of faith is more terrible than the edifice that will collapse.

There are Suo Yanlong and Tian Shouyi in front, and Ma Tengyun in the near future, all of which are the same.

Now that a Dingwu Tianzi suddenly appeared, you can imagine how great the significance to the Ming army is.

Nothing is more important to a desperate army than a banner for which they can fight to the end!

Even if the Ming army of Kuidong is at the end of its rope, this banner will inject a shot of strength into the Ming army!

Even if it still can't change the outcome of the final annihilation, it will make the Qing army pay a greater price!

Let the last anti-Qing base in Chinese mainland hold on for a few more years!

Therefore, the top priority is to find out whether there is really a Dingwu Emperor.

Wang Wu didn't even care about eating, so he asked the dumb Zhu San to invite Ma Sizhong, Zhang Tianwang, Xu Deyi and other Ming army generals.

When he said that Emperor Dingwu existed, what he didn't expect was that Ma Sizhong was the first to shake his head and say that he had never heard of Emperor Dingwu, and the two brothers Emperor Longwu and Emperor Shaowu knew about it.

Wang Wu's heart couldn't help sinking, and then he looked at Zhang Tianwang, who shook his head after thinking hard for a long time: "I don't have a Dingwu Emperor in the Ming Dynasty!" ”

Affirmatively, there is no doubt about it.

The others also shook their heads one after another, saying that they had never heard of this Dingwu Emperor.

"That's weird."

Wang Wu was surprised, the Ming army didn't know about the existence of Emperor Dingwu, how did the Qing army know?

And Niu Wancheng also used the capture of Emperor Dingwu to get the Marquis of the Qing Dynasty to tempt him to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, which shows that in the intelligence of the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty must have such a "Dingwu Pseudo-Emperor", otherwise where did the Marquis start talking about it?

When he was confused, Ma Sizhong suddenly said "Ah": "Isn't it the King of Anton?" ”

"King Anton?"

Wang Wu was puzzled.

Ma Sizhong explained that Zhu Shenglang, the king of Andong, was a member of the Ming clan, and Chongzhen was captured by Zhang Xianzhong's army in the sixteenth year.

Zhang Tianwang over there raised a different opinion, he said: "It may not be King Anton, it may also be King Han and King Tongshan." ”

Zhu Yunyao, the king of Tongshan, like Zhu Shenglang, the king of Andong, was the king of the Ming Dynasty who insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty in Hao Shaoqi's army.

Han Wang Zhu Jingli is the ninth grandson of Han Xian Wang Zhu Song, the son of Ming Taizu, when the anti-Qing movement in Shanxi was surging in the fifth year of Shunzhi, he was elected as "King of Han" by Yu Yin and Han Zhaoxuan, the leaders of the righteous army, as a call for the restoration of vision.

After the defeat of the Shanxi rebels, Zhu Jingli fled to the Ming army-controlled area in Huguang, and was continued to be enshrined as the king of Han by Hao Shaoqi in about the tenth year of Yongli.

Although this Zhu Jingli was not the son of the Han King canonized by the Chongzhen Dynasty, the Hongguang and Longwu dynasties also did not recognize him as the king of Han, the Yongli Imperial Court considered the withering of the clan and the disordered lineage, and Zhu Jingli was extremely respected by Hao Shaoqi, who had soldiers in his hands, and recognized Zhu Jingli's title of King of Han out of strategic considerations.

That is to say, after Yongli Tianzi was strangled to death by Wu Sangui, the Ming Dynasty still had one prince and two county kings in Chinese mainland who insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty in Dongdong.

Prior to this, unlike Wang Wu's previous life, the world generally recognized that there were as many as 100 Ming Dynasty relatives and county kings who were martyred for resisting the Qing Dynasty after the Qing army entered the customs.

There are countless clans.

It's not at all the so-called wine bags and rice bags, cowardly and afraid of death.

There are 28 people who were martyred by the princes of Lu, Shu, Zhou, Qin, Yi, Min, Rong, Chu, Jin, Ji, Hui, and Chang.

There are 95 kings of the county, including the king of Fuping, the king of Fengxin, the king of Jingjiang, the king of Huayang, the king of Yiyang, the king of Yongshou, and the king of Chongxin.

The names of many clans are so obscure that they can't even pass down their names after martyrdom.

Moreover, most of these martyred Ming Dynasty clans were not included in the so-called "History of the Ming Dynasty" by the Qing court, and it was strictly forbidden for the people to compile biographies for these people, resulting in the existence of these heroes only known in the many historical materials of the Southern Ming Dynasty circulated in Korea, Japan, Vietnam and even overseas countries.

Sad.

With a clear direction, the next step is to start analyzing.

Zhang Tianfang put forward a possibility, that is, after Hao Shaoqi learned that the Son of Heaven of Yongli was martyred, he may have established a certain prince and county king in his army as the Son of Heaven in order to continue Mingzuo.

Ma Sizhong did not rule out this possibility, he guessed: "If Yiguo Gong really supports the Son of Heaven, it is very likely to be King Han!" ”

Wang Wu agreed with Ma Sizhong's statement, after all, King Han was a pro-vassal and more expensive than the two county kings, King Andong and King Tongshan.

It's just that these analyses are based on speculation, and no one has heard of Hao Shaoqi supporting the Son of Heaven in the past two years, otherwise it would have spread long ago.

Xu Deyi estimated: "Could it be that Yiguo Gong has only recently urgently supported the Son of Heaven?" ”

After hearing this, everyone said that this possibility could not be ruled out, and from the point of view of time, it is very likely that Hao Shaoqi urgently supported the emperor in order to calm the army out of some strategic considerations in the past few months.

Due to the siege of the Kuidong region by the Qing army, and the successive surrender of the Ming army to the Qing Dynasty, the remaining Ming army could not communicate with each other, which led to the Ming army on Liu Tichun's side not knowing that the new Son of Heaven had ascended the throne, but the Qing army knew about the existence of the "Dingwu Puppet Emperor" from some ways.

In order to completely eliminate the remnants of the Ming Dynasty and extinguish the possibility of a comeback of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing court offered a price to capture and behead the puppet emperor and make a marquis.

But all this is still speculation.

If you want to find out whether the "Dingwu Puppet Emperor" mentioned by Niu Wancheng really exists, and whether it is the Han King Zhu Jingli in Hao Shaoqi's army, there is only one way.

It's just that you have to find Hao Shaoqi immediately!

Where is Hao Shaoqi?

The latest news about this Yiguo Gong is that three months ago, after the defeat in Fangxian County, he retreated to the Wushan area with Yuan Zongdi and Dang Shousu.

Wang Wu made a decision, and immediately set off for Lao Mugang as soon as the morning dawned, first to save Liu Tichun, the Duke of Anhui, and then to find Hao Shaoqi, the Duke of Yiguo.

"Whether there is a son of heaven or not, we will fight to the death!"

After that, he took the wine seized from the Qing army and drank it all in one gulp, and threw the big bowl on the ground with a "horn", "There is a son of heaven, we will fight to the death!" No Son of Heaven, we will die in battle! ”

"Fight to the death!"

Everyone drank it all in one gulp.

There is a lot of broken porcelain in the house.

........

The Qing army, who had no room to shelter from the cold, warmed up around a bonfire in the forest, although they were still shivering from the cold, but fortunately, they didn't have to worry about being attacked by the Ming army.

Song Eun, who returned from Dachang, found Vice General Niu.

Niu Wancheng, who was roasting his boots, got up excitedly, and grabbed Song En's shoulder without even caring about wearing his boots, and asked eagerly, "What did that Wang Wu say?" ”

"He said... He said..."

Song Eun slurred, looking embarrassed.

Niu Wancheng hurriedly said: "Damn, you said it!" ”

"He said..."

Song En hesitated for a long time, but still said honestly: "He said that the adult toad wants to eat swan meat." ”

"Huh?"

Niu Wancheng was stunned: What do you mean?

Who is the toad and who is the swan?

"My lord, I said a long time ago that people like Wang Wu are determined to be buried in the Ming Dynasty after eating the scales, how can it be possible to descend to the Qing Dynasty, he wants to surrender, why should we..."

It may be that Deputy General Niu's face is not very good, Qi Yikui swallowed back the words raw.

"Humph!"

Niu Wancheng knew what Qi Yikui wanted to say, and he was also a little angry in his heart, the kid regarded his kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, and when he thought about it, he suddenly laughed.

A general manager who was roasting meat for the lieutenant general asked with interest, "Why are you laughing?" ”

"That kid's proposal to me is actually tempting."

When he said this, Niu Wancheng actually looked proud.

Qi Dusi looked stunned: "Why did the adults say this? ”

"Because, the first time I saw him, I knew that this kid was not the kind of person who went all the way to the dark."

Looking at Dachang Town, which was faintly glowing with fire in the distance, Lao Niu's eyes were blazing.

Stinky boy, see how long you can jump!
