The weather in September is hot, but there is not a trace of sweat on the body of the great talent Fang Guangchen. According to him, his mind is calm and naturally cool. He holds a feather fan in his hand and sits leisurely, looking like an immortal.
Not to mention, Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, did this. At that time, Fang Guangchen's father, Fang Yizao, the Minister of Rites, was in charge of Liaodong. When Wu Sangui saw that Mr. Fang had good looks and a good father, he formed an alliance with him.
Mr. Fang is a native of Shexian County, Anhui Province. He is not only handsome in appearance, but also quick-thinking, good at poetry, and a good talker. He often compares himself with Guan Zhong and Zhuge Liang. He is the number one counselor in Pingxi Fan.
"Oh, Tingxian, you are worried about Gu. Now that Gu's army has arrived in Baoning, where should they go? You can give me an idea." Wu Sangui was anxious.
In order to cooperate with Nikan's attack on Jiangxi and Huguang, Emperor Shunzhi appointed Pingxi King Wu Sangui as Pingxi General, and ordered him to lead the army from Hanzhong, Shaanxi to Sichuan and Guizhou together with Gushan Ezhen Li Guohan. He hurriedly and slowly arrived in Sichuan.
Langzhong County, Conservative Prefecture.
Fang Guangchen smiled slightly: "The dragon has entered the sea and the tiger has returned to the mountain. What is the king still worried about?"
After Wu Sangui surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he had a miserable life at first. The main reason was that he had an ambiguous attitude towards Emperor Hongguang of the Southern Ming Dynasty and "couldn't bear to kill him with the same attack." Dorgon was uneasy about him, showed favor to him but was suspicious in his heart, and refused to teach him anything.
When he saw something was not going well, he repeatedly expressed his "loyalty to the new dynasty". Not only did he say it, he also did it. He helped the Qing government suppress the Shanxi and Shaanxi rebels and made great contributions. With good luck, Dorgon passed away and Emperor Shunzhi became the
The national policy is "ruling the Han with the Han". Not only did he marry the Wu family, he also appointed him as the commander-in-chief of the Western Expedition to Sichuan. He took the opportunity to expand his 20,000 Guanning cavalry to more than 30,000.
Therefore, Fang Guangchen jokingly called him "the dragon has entered the sea and the tiger has returned to the mountain."
Wu Sangui smiled bitterly. On the surface, Emperor Shunzhi really believed in him, but he buried a nail next to him. Gushan'er was really Li Guohan, and Li Guohan also had an identity: a bodyguard of Mullergen. This identity is valuable, to some extent.
Representing the emperor, he is somewhat similar to supervising the army. Li Guohan fought fiercely and was not afraid of death. He would take the lead in every battle and had a high prestige in the army. With this person around, it would be difficult for him to control the entire army in Sichuan. In addition, Li Guoying, the governor of Sichuan,
Shu has been operating in Shu for many years, and the five generals in Shu all obey his orders. With these two people here, it is a bit difficult for him to dominate Sichuan.
"Hey, there are 'two plums' here, so why talk about 'dragons entering the sea and tigers returning to the mountains'?"
"Your Majesty, can you think of where to build your inheritance?"
"Sichuan is ruined and the most fertile place is Jiading. However, the Ming army has heavy troops in Jiading and it is difficult to capture it. It is determined to capture Chongqing. Although Chongqing also suffered military disasters, it is still much better than Chengdu and Tongchuan. After obtaining it, it can be recuperated for a few years.
It can be a foundation”.
Fang Guangchen shook his fan, feeling a little like Kong Ming, "Wang is right. If you want to capture Chongqing, you must attack Shunqing. The defender He Zhen is good at fighting, so it is not easy to win. Moreover, Chongqing is located between the Ming and Qing forces, and they are fighting endlessly.
, and how to recuperate and recuperate? In my opinion, it is better to take Songfan and Long'an. Although these two places are remote, they are backed by Tufan and far away from the battlefields of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. You can make friends with Gushi Khan from Qinghai and Tibet as backup to recuperate and recuperate.
, wait for the time and move”.
Wu Sangui was moved, and the world was in chaos. He was also a hero, and he had the intention of separatist rule and self-improvement. "Although this strategy is good, what are the constraints of 'Er Li'?"
Fang Guangchen laughed loudly, "What's so difficult about this? You are the commander-in-chief. With a military order, the troops are sent in two directions: order Li Guohan and Li Guoying to lead the army to attack Shunqing and Chongqing, and let them confront the Ming army head-on; you will lead the army to attack Long'an
,Song Fan".
"Good!"
"I heard that Lin Shitai, the commander-in-chief of Chengdu in the Ming Dynasty, was just a loser. Whoever was more powerful would be surrendered. If you lead the army, Chengdu will surrender. Once Chengdu surrenders, it will cut off Long'an, Songfan and others.
The connection between the Ming army. Zhu Hualong and Zhan Tianyan only have more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, so it is easy to break them."
Wu Sangui was overjoyed, "I only have Ting Xian to give me advice, so why worry about the big thing failing?"
Wu Sangui ordered Li Guohan and Li Guoying to lead the five generals of Sichuan: Hui Yingzhao, Ma Huabao, Lu Guangzu, Bai Yongfu, and Zuo Xing, with 30,000 troops, to attack Shunqing Prefecture, Chongqing Prefecture, and Kuizhou Prefecture; he himself led 30,000 troops
Yu, attack Chengdu Prefecture, Long'an Prefecture, and Songpan Wei.
??
September is the season when hibiscus flowers are in full bloom. Lin Shitai, the commander-in-chief of Chengdu, has no intention of admiring the hibiscus flowers all over the city.
Wu Sangui's army is approaching the border. So fast! It was in Zitong half a month ago, it arrived in Mianzhou ten days ago, Deyang in five days, and now it is in Xindu, only one step away from Chengdu.
Why so fast? I heard that people have horses called Guan Ning Cavalry.
The Chengdu Prefecture was dilapidated, and only the prefecture governed Chengdu and the Huayang area, which had a small population. Therefore, the Wu army fought all the way without encountering resistance.
As the commander-in-chief, he had to decide whether to fight or make peace. Yilin Shitai's original weak-minded personality had long since deteriorated. But last time, Fan Youxian and Li Dingguo fought hard in the battle to pacify the Sichuan feudal towns, which gave rise to the prestige of the imperial court.
.Lin Shitai hesitated again, fearing that he had made a wrong bet. So he sent someone to ask for help from Fan Youxian and Li Dingguo, but the reinforcements had not arrived yet.
"Report! The vanguard of the Qing army has arrived at the gates of Chengdu."
"What!"
Lin Shitai was shocked and went to the city to take a look. He saw a mass of black cavalry, the troops were in good order, and there was a murderous aura in the silence.
In order to prevent the Ming army from coming for reinforcements, Wu Sangui ordered Hu Guozhu, Xia Guoxiang, and Wang Pingfan to lead 7,000 elite cavalry and march day and night to capture Chengdu.
"Listen to the people on the city. Surrender quickly and you will avoid death. Otherwise, no chickens or dogs will be left after the city is broken." Hu Guozhu ordered the sergeant to yell below the city.
"Da da da", Wang Ping Fan led a hundred cavalry under the city to show off their power, and with a "whoosh" arrow, it hit the city gate tower.
Lin Shitai was shocked. There were elite soldiers outside the city, and he could never defeat them.
There is nothing to say, surrender! He has experience in this kind of thing and is familiar with the roads. Before the Wu army could attack the city, the city gate opened and they were welcomed with gongs and drums.
Wu Sangui then entered the city, and Fang Guangchen reminded: "Your Majesty, Lin Shitai has always been a walleye and extremely unreliable. He needs to be killed after entering the city to avoid future troubles."

"Tingxian can rest assured, and loneliness can be avoided."
The General Military Mansion in Chengdu was very large, with flowers, wine, and beauties. In order to flatter King Ping Xi, Lin Shitai worked hard.
After smelling the flowers, drinking wine, and watching the singing and dancing, Wu Sangui ordered Lin Shitai to be tied up, "Push him out and kill him!"
Nani? Surrender or kill?
Lin Shitai was dumbfounded and begged. Wu Sangui refused to listen and ordered him to be beheaded as soon as possible.
Lin Shitai, who was so anxious, shouted: "If the king doesn't kill me, I am willing to take Long'an Mansion and Songpan Guard for the king."
"Oh, General Lin, is there any way to help me get these two places?"
"Ding Guoyong, the general of Long'an General Zhan Tianyan, and Chen Jiasheng, the adopted son of Songpan General Zhu Hualong, are in love with the last general. They are all grassroots, no, they are all talented people who are aware of current affairs. The last general is willing to write a letter to persuade them to surrender."
.
Wu Sangui hurriedly untied Lin Shitai and comforted him with words, "I was just joking with Mr. Lin, don't be offended."
??
Zhu Hualong and Zhan Tianyan were originally the old troops of the King of Qin. After the King of Qin was defeated by Li Guohan and threw himself into the river, they surrendered to Zhu Hengjia and fought against the Qing Dynasty in Long'an and Songpan.
They are loyal, but they can't stand up to their subordinates who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and turn into traitors.
Wu Jun Gao Dejie, Wu Guogui, and Guo Zhuangtu's troops defeated Zhan Tianyan's general Cao Hong in Shiquan County, Long'an Prefecture.
"The general in charge of the town was incompetent and failed to defend Shiquan County," Cao Hong apologized.
Zhan Tianyan helped Cao Hong up, "General Cao has a small number of soldiers, and he has fought fiercely until now, but he has tried his best. What crime is he guilty of?"
Looking around at the generals, "I am devoting my salary to the Ming Dynasty, so I must be loyal to the Ming Dynasty. Pingwu City is the place where I will die. Are you willing to fight to the death with me?"
"The final general will swear allegiance to the Ming Dynasty!"
Among the people, Ding Guoyong roared the loudest.
The night in Pingwucheng was very quiet, and Zhan Tianyan was handling official business. Suddenly he heard the cry of killing, and Ding Guoyong broke in with a bloody steel knife.
"What are you going to do?" Zhan Tianyan shouted angrily.
"Without him, I would like to offer my commander-in-chief to gain wealth," Ding Guoyong said shamelessly, actually smiling.
Zhan Tianyan no longer scolded him, nor even looked at him. There is no need to scold a shameless person, he is not worthy.
"Your Majesty, the general has brought Zhan Tianyan to present it to Your Majesty," Ding Guoyong said to Wu Sangui with a bow and a nod.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Bring Mr. Zhan up here."
"Who is Wu Pingxi?"
With a loud roar, Zhan Tianyan was filled with anger.
Wu Sangui was stunned, this man is so crazy, he is already a prisoner, yet he dares to yell at me.
"What?"
"I want to ask you, are you Han or Manchu? Jackals are the most vicious, and they will not bite their own kind. If you bite your own kind, you are not as good as a wolf!"
These words were like a knife, piercing Wu Sangui's heart. I, the Wu family, have been ministers for generations! Now I have to help the Manchus kill the Han people, and I will not die.
Unable to answer, he sighed for a while, "Sangui has learned a lesson," and ordered him to be dragged out and beheaded.
"Don't drag me, a man can only die standing up!"
Zhan Tianyan frowned angrily and stood upright to receive the sword.
"General Zhan goes first, and the last general will arrive later." General Cao Hong also died after scolding the thief.
On that day, a heavy rain fell from the sky in Long'an Mansion. The spirit of the loyal ministers and righteous men moved the heaven.
??
At the same time that Zhan Tianyan died, the Battle of Maozhou began. Zhu Hualong, the commander-in-chief of the Song Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty, led 5,000 soldiers and horses to defend Maozhou to prevent the Qing army from entering Songpan Guard from Chengdu.
Wu Yingqi led Zhang Guozhu, Liu Hanzhang, Xu Zhongming, Li Yubin, and Fan Yingtai's 10,000 troops to attack Maozhou. They could not capture Maozhou because the terrain was very dangerous.
Upon hearing the report, Wu Sangui led his army to outflank him from the direction of Long'an. Zhu Hualong was afraid that his retreat would be cut off by the Wu army, so he had to retreat to Songfan Acropolis.
"Sheng'er", Zhu Hualong called his adopted son Chen Jiasheng, "Xintang Pass is the gateway to Songpan City. As my father, I give it to you."
"Father, don't worry, as long as I, Chen Jiasheng, are here, Xintang Pass will be here." Chen Jiasheng's chest banged loudly, but he had actually surrendered to Wu Sangui secretly.
He sacrificed Xintang Pass, led the Wu army to Songpan Acropolis, and captured Zhu Hualong.
"Who is Wu Pingxi?" Zhu Hualong yelled.
Wu Sangui was stunned and understood. I guess this person also wanted to scold him like Zhan Tianyan. He disappeared.
Unable to see Wu Sangui, Zhu Hualong cursed: "Wu Sangui, as a Han Chinese, you are willing to serve the captives, forget the kindness of the late emperor, and bring shame to your ancestors. Shameless! Shameless!"
"Drag it out and kill it!"
"Your Majesty," Wu Zhimao walked in furtively, "How dare Zhu Hualong scold you? The general has already found out about his two sons Zhu Guoxi and the whereabouts of Zhu Guozhang. I am willing to kill him for the prince."
"Alas!"
Wu Sangui took a long breath and said, "It is unlucky to kill the son of a loyal minister. Forget it, don't embarrass them."
