0568, civil strife in the rebel army
Miao Sanguan thought that the family of Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, did not need to be alive, and issued a top-secret order to Li Dingguo about the handling of the king of Chu, of course, there were deep-seated reasons.
The current Chu King Zhu Huakui is not the blood of the Zhu family at all, but an impostor.
The prince of the Ming Dynasty used impostor to inherit, which is nothing new, and it has happened many times in history.
During the Chenghua period, the King of Hanyin in the Han Dynasty had a precedent of raising a different surname and pretending to be his own son, which was later revealed. The late Hanyin King Zhu Zhengjun was posthumously reduced to a concubine, and the queen mother and concubine Ping, the princess Zhou, as well as the pretended county king and county lord were all killed, and the princess's father, Zhou Lingchi, and his wife and concubine were all beheaded.
The younger brother of Zhu Zhongling, the king of Fangshan in the Jin Palace, and the successor of Zhu Zhongjun, the general of Zhenguo, is also the son born to the younger brother-in-law of his wife. After Zhu Zhongyong's death, the matter was revealed, and he was posthumously titled. Mrs. Zhang and Zhu Qiyi, who pretended to be their sons, committed suicide, and Zhang's parents were beheaded. Zhu Zhongling, the king of Fangshan, knew about it and supported him, Ge Jue.
Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, and his younger brother Zhu Huabi were not the sons of King Gong of Chu.
Zhu Huakui is the son of You Jinmei, the concubine of Wang Ruyan, the brother of Princess Chu Gong, and Zhu Huabi is the son of Wang Yu, the concubine of the Wang Ruwei family, both of whom were born for a few months and then raised in the palace of Chu Wang.
This incident also alarmed the imperial court, but Emperor Chongzhen was facing a bad situation of internal and external troubles at this time, and he was in no mood to ask about this matter at all.
In addition, Zhu Huakui used heavy bribes to bribe Shen Yiyi, the first assistant of the cabinet and the leader of the civil Zhejiang Party, so that Shen Zimu should not be neglected. Shen Zimu, Shen's confidant and political envoy, saw that the matter was complicated, so he followed the instructions of Shen Zhengyi, the first assistant of the cabinet, to temporarily put down the pressure of the minister, and the matter was over.
The inside story of these things, Peng Wuying's original Flying Squirrel Gate knew something, and later decided to establish a base in the land of Huguang, Peng Wuyin specially re-investigated this matter, and submitted a report to Xiong Chu.
Prince Xiong didn't care about the messy things in the feudal families in various places. If the impostor princes could take care of the people, Prince Xiong would not have any other ideas.
But these guys pretended to be the blood of the Zhu family and knocked on the bones of the people, and Prince Xiong would never let go of this kind of scum, so he issued an order to "find the right time and do it once and for all" very early.
Now that the time has come, at least Miao Sanguan thinks that now that the entire Huguang is in chaos, it is the best time to execute the impostor of King Chu, and then push it on Liukou and everything will be fine.
The reason why Miao Sanguan and Peng Wuying hated the fake King Chu in Huguang was because they were unhappy with the Xiong Prince.
Xiong Chu is the bloodline of Emperor Jianwen, and he was killed tragically. Forced to be a slave and a killer, there is almost no place for him.
On the contrary, those fake princes have passed on their ancestry and spread throughout the Huguang region, and now there are four people who have been crowned kings, with four royal cities, and most of the wealth of the entire Jiangxia and Wuchang is in the four palaces.
Xiong Chu has suffered a lot, but these scum have enjoyed the blessings of the world. If you don't kill all these people, you can't comfort the thousands of people who have been killed in the history of Emperor Jianwen.
Miao Sanguan listed the first batch of must-kill lists for Li Dingguo, including Zhu Yingsui, King of Dong'an, Zhu Huazeng, King of Wugang, Zhu Huayi, King of Jiangxia, and Zhu Huakui, King of Chu, Wuchang.
Why are so many princes surnamed Zhu, and almost none of them worry about the court and the people of Limin?
Because they are not descendants of the Zhu family at all, most of them are impostors, and whether the Zhu family is alive or dead has nothing to do with them.
Li Dingguo led the cavalry of the Central Protector Army of 3,600 people, carrying the banner of the "Hengyang Yongsheng King" guard along the way.
Although Emperor Chongzhen did not deal with Zhu Huakui, the fake prince, for the time being, he was not without precautions.
This precautionary measure is to rely on Zhu Changying, the king of Hengyang Gui. After the death of Emperor Zhu Changying's uncle, Emperor Chongzhen attached great importance to this little cousin of Hengyang Palace, and gave him the title of King Yongsheng.
There is a big chaos today, and the rogues come and go, and if there is an army, there is security. The wealth of King Hengyang may not be the largest, but the number of troops is definitely the largest.
Emperor Chongzhen's meaning is very clear: no matter whether those princes in the land of Huguang are impostors or not, King Gui of Hengyang has the right and ability to restrain them.
Therefore, the banner of "King Yongsheng" is everywhere, and no one dares to take a look at it, is he impatient?
Li Dingguo led the cavalry battalion all the way across the state and county, as anxious as a spark, and finally arrived at the edge of the South Lake, fifteen miles southeast of Wuchang City, where a mountain range was already faintly visible.
Miao Sanguan ordered Chige's shooting battalion to lurk in, and asked Li Dingguo to swagger through the city to Wuchang, in fact, while he was planning to deal with Zhang Xianzhong, he was also planning to deal with Huarong, Shishou, and the front line of public security.
Although Li Yan and the Red Lady moved north, the matter in Jiangbei was not completely resolved. This trouble, which has not been completely solved, is to return to Ma Shouying.
Li Zicheng called himself the "Generalissimo of the Fengtian Initiative", and gave Cao Cao and Luo Rucai the title of "General Weide on behalf of the heavens", but in fact, he was very jealous of Luo Rucai's endless schemes.
The most important thing is that the new military advisor Niu Jinxing has a small belly and chicken intestines, thinking that if Luo Rucai is not eliminated for a day, he will not be worthy of his name. Because the name "Sai Cao Cao" is powerful, and it is also the embodiment of resourcefulness.
Li Zicheng also felt in his heart that he was slowly having the signs of "True Dragon Son", and it was urgent to clear the unstable factors around him.
Ge Li Yan He Yilong is brave and fierce, and his 48,000 people are like wolves and tigers, invincible for more than ten years, known as the first battalion of the fifth battalion of Ge Zuo, and the first main force of the Lao Hui Ma Shouying Group.
Sai Cao Cao Luo Rucai, has always been full of wisdom and scheming, and he has no last resort, and his four deputy generals are all wise and brave, and they are the best in the one hundred and eight battalions.
In the past ten years, Gao Yingxiang's 72nd Battalion and Zhang Xianzhong's 36th Battalion of Tiangang have risen and fallen, and the core characters are not King Gao Yingxiang, the Eighth King Zhang Xianzhong, and Lao Hui Ma Shouying, but Cao Cao Luo Rucai.
Every time the 108th Battalion of the Wandering Volunteers faced a critical moment of life and death, it was Sai Cao Cao Luo Ru who came up with a way to get out of the predicament.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Dinghai Divine Needle of the Wandering People's Righteous Army is Luo Rucai.
Luo Rucai has always been convinced by virtue and pays attention to the morality of the rivers and lakes, and is the life-saving benefactor of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong.
I think that back then, Li Zicheng was ambushed at Tongguan, and Luo Rucai encouraged all departments to go with him to rescue Li Zicheng for the sake of the overall situation. After Li Zicheng's defeat and defected to Zhang Xianzhong and almost died, it was Luo Rucai who saved Li Zicheng again.
Luo Rucai's popularity has always been very good, and he is very appealing in the homeless rebel army.
Without Luo Rucai, Zhang Xianzhong would not dare to rebel against Gucheng; without Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng would not be able to control Gao Yingxiang's troops and quickly gather an army of one million.
Because of this, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng, who are extremely ambitious, are jealous, hateful and afraid of Luo Rucai.
Li Zicheng, the general of Chuang, just relied on the identity of his son-in-law to inherit Gao Yingxiang's banner of Chuangwang, and his status in the rivers and lakes cannot be compared with Luo Rucai and Zhang Xianzhong.
The heart is higher than the sky, the debut time is the shortest, the youngest (thirty-seven years old), and not many people believe in themselves with all their hearts, which has become Li Zicheng's biggest heart disease.
Ge Li Yan He Yilong and Sai Cao Cao Luo Ru are the two flags, which are the key targets of the imperial court, and they are also the thorns in Li Zicheng's eyes. Thinking of He Yilong and Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng felt that he couldn't do whatever he wanted.
He Yilong is not an isolated battalion, he is a subordinate of Lao Hui Ma Shouying.
Killing He Yilong can greatly weaken the strength of Lao Hui Hui Ma Shouying, so that he can no longer threaten his status in the rivers and lakes, so Li Zicheng's first target is He Yilong.
Another fundamental reason why Li Zicheng hated Luo Rucai was that Zhang Xianzhong came to vote after the defeat in Anhui two years ago.
Hearing that Zhang Xianzhong's 36th Tiangang Battalion had suffered a heavy setback, Li Zicheng decided to kill Zhang Xianzhong without the slightest hesitation and get rid of one of his biggest opponents in the world.
But Luo Rucai knows very well in his heart that now that the general trend of the world is undecided, Li Zicheng can't wait to poison the one hundred and eighth battalion, which is a specific expression of extremely inflated ambition and self-respect.
This is not good news for anyone. So at the critical moment when Li Zicheng was about to make a move, Luo Rucai privately gave Zhang Xianzhong 500 men and horses and let him out.
Because Luo Rucai made an obstacle from this, not only did he not achieve the goal of annexing Zhang Xianzhong's 36th Tiangang Battalion, but also formed a mortal enmity with Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood when he thought of it.
In order to achieve his set goal of competing for the world, Li Zicheng, as a generation of heroes, quickly fabricated a reason for "secretly collaborating with the enemy", and did not hesitate to kill He Yilong and Luo Rucai, and incorporated most of the two armies.
Lao Hui Ma Shouying has no political ambitions, he is a good man among the major battalions, and he has a life-saving grace for Li Zicheng, which is something that everyone in the world knows.
Because of this, Li Zicheng dared to kill anyone, but he didn't dare to kill Ma Shouying.
Not only did he not kill Ma Shouying, but Li Zicheng also gave Ma Shouying the title of "Yongfu Battalion Heroic General".
When Li Zicheng's main army went north, he specially entrusted all the military forces on the front line of Chengtianfu, Jingzhou Mansion, and Lizhou Mansion to Ma Shouying.
Could it be that Li Zicheng believed in Ma Shouying so much that he could rest assured that he would hand over his Huguang foundation to Ma Shouying to guard? Of course, things were not so simple.
I think that at the beginning, Prince Xiong fought Zhang Xianzhong and Ma Shouying in Fengyang City, the central capital, and others didn't pay attention to it, but the "Little Red Flag" women's army under the Red Lady knew about it.
And when he was in Jinzhai Town, Xiong Chu was tricked by Li Ling'er, who called himself "Yang Li's", because of his thoughts.
Li Yan and the Red Lady crossed the river to reconnoiter and found Peng Wuying and Guan Datou, of course they didn't dare to slack off, and quickly reported the new situation to Li Zicheng: Prince Xiong is likely to have intervened in the affairs of Huguang, and he must be cautious.
Li Zicheng, as a generation of heroes, quickly understood the stakes of the matter: if he was entangled with Xiong Chu in the land of Huguang, it might not be a good idea.
Xiong Chu can recover all parts of the southwest, and he can also defeat the Westerners, but I'm afraid it's not so easy to get. Rather than facing a huge unknown, it is better to move north to deal with the court officials and soldiers who are more sure of themselves.
In other words, although Li Yan and the Red Lady are gone, Ma Shouying is now in charge of Chengtianfu (Zhongxiang), and he still controls the line of Honghu, Chuyang, and Jiangling.
There are still more than 200,000 people under Ma Shouying, and no one dares to ignore this army, not Miao Sanguan and Peng Wuying.
Who is Peng Wuying? He is an out-and-out charlatan.
Back then, Peng Wuying set up a stall at the gate of the White Horse Temple to tell hexagrams, known as "Zhuge Liang deduced the yin and yang gossip, and Peng Tiezui wonderfully judged the past and present life", a stinky mouth can bring the dead to life.
The main task now is to take advantage of the favorable opportunity of Zhang Xianzhong's westward advance to get rid of Zhu Huakui, the king of Wuchang, Zhu Huazeng, the king of Wugang, Zhu Huaying, the king of Jiangxia, and even Zhu Changwen, the king of Changsha.
Originally, Peng Wuying didn't have such a big confidence at first, but after trapping Zuo Liangyu's 200,000 army, the situation reversed.
Zuo Liangyu learned that he was calculated by Xiong Chu's people, and vomited blood and died in a fit of anger.
After Peng Wuying executed Zuo Liangyu's son Zuo Mengeng and deputy general Ma Shixiu and other high-level generals, he suddenly had 200,000 more people in his hands, and he also had a legitimate reputation: Zuo Jiajun.
After half a month of reorganization, among the 200,000 people under Zuo Liangyu, Peng Wuying selected 50,000 elite soldiers, and the other 100,000 people all rushed to the embankment to serve as coolies.
The situation is strange at the moment, and no one knows what will happen in the next moment.
After exchanging letters with Miao Sanguan, Peng Wuying has reached an agreement: the relationship with Jiangbei is best handled smoothly, and it is the best outcome to avoid armed conflict.
If you want to avoid a war, you can only solve the problem with your mouth.
