Chapter 468 Henan (1)

 Yuzhou City, where Dayu was granted the title of Xia Bo by Dayu Shun, Zhu Guoqiang, the commander of the Qing army, was walking back and forth in the governor's office. A long and narrow scar on the sinister face shook as his body moved. .

His Dusi is not Zhangyin (Second Grade), Tongzhi (Second Grade), Qianshu (Second Grade) and other officials of the Dudu Commandery Division under the Ming Dynasty Guard. He is just an ordinary fourth-grade military general, located in the rank of Staff General. Under the guerrilla, above the garrison. Now that the guard station has been abandoned, both the Ming and Qing Dynasties are carrying out military reform. The Qing army is in the fourth rank, and the Ming army is in the fourth rank.

Not long ago, Zhu Guoqiang received an order from Governor Li Yinzu, asking him to lead his troops to withdraw to Xingyang and put him under the control of Lieutenant General Shen Chaohua.

As a governor, he has a high official position and can see far. Xingyang is located between Luoyang and Kaifeng. Since ancient times, it has been "the belt between two capitals and the throat of three Qin". Its strategic position is much more important than Yuzhou.

The transfer order was right, but Judusi was reluctant to carry it out.

He was originally from a wealthy family and had been stationed in Yuzhou with a group of brothers for several years. He had long regarded Yuzhou as his own territory. In Yuzhou, when entering the city, you have to pay city gate tax to Zhu Dusi; when opening a shop, you have to pay business tax Even the land tax, with a stroke of Zhu Dusi's pen, the number of acres in the fish scale album was changed again and again; if the local wealthy families did not pay attention to Zhu Dusi during the holidays, just wait, there will be "bandits" coming in the middle of the night.

In recent years, those who have become popular in Yuzhou have bought mansions, occupied countless fields, and married more than a dozen beautiful concubines. They really couldn't bear to leave Yuzhou! While giving Li Yinzu a generous gift, he also claimed As the governor, I have the responsibility to protect the territory.

Governor Li had nothing to do with Zhu Dusi. It was not the time when the Qing Dynasty had just entered the customs. The military law was strict. Now that it was defeated again and again, it was afraid that the generals at all levels would defect and did not dare to strictly enforce the military law. The end of the dynasty was mostly accompanied by the domineering vassal towns. The Qing Dynasty The same is true for the imperial court. For example, Zhu Guoqiang repeatedly claimed that he had the same surname as Emperor Zhu and that he was a descendant of Zhu Xi. Governor Li had to pretend not to know and gave him another order. If he could not hold on, he retreated to Xingyang. .

Zhu Guoqiang was not stupid. He knew that with his mere 3,000 local garrison troops, he was no match for the Ming army. But he did not dare to surrender. Henan was in the midst of a "crime of collusion with captives". He had done many bad things while helping the Qing court over the years. Go ahead, throw yourself in there and it won't work. The only hope now is that the Ming army doesn't look down on this small Yuzhou City and goes directly north to open the seal. Then their territory will be saved!

"General, the vanguard of the Ming army is coming to Yuzhou."

"Bah! When we got up in the morning, the black bustard screamed, "Zhi Niang thief, good things don't work, bad things work." Zhu Guoqiang calmed down and asked: "How many people from the Ming army came?"

"About ten thousand in number."

"What! Ten thousand people!"

Zhu Guoqiang exclaimed that he only had a total of 3,000 soldiers and horses, and they were all garrison guards with low combat effectiveness. He could suppress the uprising of the unruly people, but how could he defeat the 10,000 Ming army tigers and wolves who had experienced hundreds of battles? He gritted his teeth and ordered: " Quick, go into the mountains!"

There is a mountain named Shengo Mountain in the southwest of Yuzhou, located between Yuzhou and Xiaxian County. The mountain is not high, but it is named after porcelain. There is Shengo Town at the foot of the mountain, which is the capital of Jun porcelain and the first of the five famous porcelains.

Cunning Rabbit Three Cave, Zhu Dusi has made so much money, what he fears most is that he will lose his life to spend the money. He has already set up a secret camp in Shengo Mountain, hiding gold, silver, jewelry, food and supplies in it.

"Brother, then we don't want this Yuzhou City anymore?" Zhao Xilu, the sworn brother, asked. These brothers all followed Zhu Guoqiang to buy property in the city and were reluctant to leave.

"Hide for a while. When the main force of the Ming army leaves, Yuzhou will still be ours," Zhu Guoqiang gritted his teeth.

??

"Welcome Master Wang to the city!"

"Little brother, are you hungry? Eat a piece of cake!"

"Brothers, give me the best fruit to taste"??

Yang Fuchen, the pioneer of the Ming army, could not help but be shocked. Along the way, there were many civilians working in various places, but the scale was so large that Confucian monks, Taoists, merchants, three religions and nine streams came to greet them. It was rare for the crowd to stretch for more than ten miles.

This is all due to Zhu Guoqiang. During his several years in Yuzhou, he really brought disaster to the people! Everyone regarded the Ming army as their savior. Men, women, old and young, from all walks of life, poured out their cans to welcome the king. Suddenly, there appeared

It created the grand scene of "Taoist priests holding fruit in the forest to welcome people, and Confucian scholars walking away from a distance to hold bottles of slurry."

Yang Fuchen smiled and said to deputy pioneer Shang Zhixin: "Shang Zongzhen, take a look, this is what people want!"

After Shang Zhixin came to the Ming Dynasty, he was given the title of Commander-in-Chief. In strict compliance with the imperial edict, he served as deputy vanguard and was under the control of Yang Fuchen. Hearing this, he nodded repeatedly, "The people's hearts are clear, who has no Han thoughts? Since ancient times, those who win the hearts of the people will win the world. Master Wang will definitely be able to do so this time."

Recover the Central Plains!"

"That's good," Yang Fuchen laughed heartily, "Let's go, follow me into the city."

As soon as the two entered the city, local squires came to see them. Zhao Qian, Sun Li, and Zhou Wu and King Zheng came in a long line and presented numerous gifts to the army.

"Oh, you elders are so enthusiastic, how can you be so embarrassed?" Yang Fuchen was deeply moved by the enthusiasm of the elders.

"Please, Commander-in-Chief, make the decision for the people of Yuzhou and destroy the captive general 'Zhu Bapi'", the squires knelt down and begged, crying with snot and tears.

Yang Fuchen was surprised, "Who is this 'Zhu Bapi'?"

"Commander, this 'Zhu Bapi' is Zhu Guoqiang, the guard of Yuzhou in the Qing Dynasty."

"Zhu Guoqiang? Didn't that guy run away?"

"The commander-in-chief does not know that Zhu Guoqiang escaped but did not flee far. He is hiding in the Shenhe Mountain near Yuzhou. If you don't destroy him, he will definitely come back after the main force of Master Wang leaves. This mermaid is in Yuzhou, and both humans and gods are angry.

.If the commander is willing to send out troops to exterminate this beast, we are willing to donate 30,000 taels of silver, no, 50,000 taels to reward the army."

Yang Fuchen was stunned. He thought he had successfully pacified Yuzhou, but he didn't expect such a scourge to be hidden around him, so he generously agreed, "Fathers, don't worry, I will definitely get rid of this traitor for the people of Yuzhou."

??

Hearing that the Ming army was going to the mountains to annihilate "Zhu Bapi", all parts of Yuzhou were in a state of excitement.

The common people spontaneously acted as guides for the Ming army, transported supplies, and easily organized thousands of civilians for free. Yang Fuchen couldn't help but sigh repeatedly, "What has this 'Zhu Papi' done? He is so hated!"

"Headquarters, this is Shenge Town. The red thieves are hiding in Daliu Mountain on the right side of the town." Liu Juren, who was leading the way, said to Shang Zhixin, the deputy pioneer of the Ming army.

Shang Zhixin saw the green smoke curling up in this town. He couldn't help but wonder, "This town is so weird. Why is it so full of smoke?"

"I don't know anything about the main town. This town is a famous Jun porcelain town. It burns porcelain all year round, so there is naturally a lot of smoke. Folk proverb goes, 'When you enter Shen'e Mountain, you can see the seven-mile long street. There are seventy-two kilns, and fireworks cover the sky. Merchants are everywhere.

"Every day we make money, we make money." In those days, my Liu family also had a kiln here. I hate the red thieves who occupied all the kilns. This is not giving the people a way to live." After saying this, Liu Juren was indignant.
p>

Shang Zhixin understood this time. No wonder these squires worked so hard to help Zhu Guoqiang! He smiled faintly and said, "Hurry up and lead the way. It's still early and we will kill this beast today."

Shenge Town has good geomantic omen, with the west high and the east low. It is backed by Fengyang Mountain in the west, Qianming Mountain on the left, Daliu Mountain on the right, overlooking Jiaozi Mountain in the east. The Zuyu River is like a jade belt, winding through the town.

As the saying goes, there is a backing mountain at the back, a green dragon on the left, a white tiger on the right, the distant mountains echo each other, and the natural arch. The sacred hill is a good Feng Shui treasure land for the "Pailing Dragon Chair".

It is said that Qianming Mountain is the main peak of Shengo. Qian means heaven; Ming means Da Ming, which means God bless the Ming Dynasty. But Qianming Mountain is not high; on the contrary, Daliu Mountain next to it is tall and big.

The mountain is short and the mountain Ying is high. In order to adjust the feng shui, the locals built the Earth Temple on Daliu Mountain to lower Ying Mountain; they built the Tianye Pavilion on Qianming Mountain to raise the main mountain.

Zhu Guoqiang's three thousand soldiers and horses were stationed in Daliu Mountain. When they heard that the Ming army's magic soldiers had descended from the sky, their faces turned pale with shock, "How did the Ming army know that I was hiding here?"

I have no choice but to resist.

After fighting for more than an hour, I completely collapsed.

"Brother, the brothers can't stand it anymore. I will escort you to break out." Zhao Xilu came to Zhu Guoqiang.

"You can hold on for another half hour." Zhu Guoqiang gritted his teeth, ran into the back hall, and called his wife and concubines, "Master, I will be buried here today. I can't let you taint your innocence, so commit suicide quickly!"

Ants still live in vain, let alone humans?

Only the principal wife and several concubines hanged themselves. The other concubines refused to die and cried for mercy. Zhu Guoqiang was furious and struck one by one without mercy.

The last girl she killed was her favorite Zhang.

Zhang closed her eyes and did not beg for mercy. She looked pitifully and waited for death. Zhu Guoqiang refused to take action and sighed: "You are a daughter of a good family, but you were kidnapped by me as a concubine. You must hate me?"

"I don't hate you, sir. If it weren't for my master, I would have starved to death in this chaotic situation." Mrs. Zhang gave a salute to Zhu Guoqiang.

Zhu Guoqiang suddenly cried, "If I don't kill you, no matter who you become as a concubine in the future, every year on this day, you must remember that I love rice wine and roasted chicken the most."

??

"Come on, bring the Zhu thieves up," Yang Fuchen shouted sharply, and the tied-up Zhu Guoqiang was brought up. After all, he was reluctant to commit suicide and was captured alive by the Ming army.

"The sinner is willing to surrender. I beg the commander-in-chief to spare his life." Zhu Guoqiang kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic.

"Haha", Yang Fuchen sneered, "Isn't it too late to surrender after being defeated and captured? Besides, you have done many evil things in Yuzhou, and the people are eager to eat your flesh and drink your blood. If you don't kill them, how can the people be angry?"

"The sinner is willing to devote all his wealth to the commander-in-chief, just to be a small citizen is enough."

"The camp has been destroyed. I took your wealth for myself, so I don't have to pay for it." Yang Fuchen smiled jokingly and shouted: "Come on! Behead this guy to show the public."

They pushed Zhu Guoqiang from left to right and walked outside the tent.

"Wait a minute, Commander, you shouldn't kill me!"

"Oh," Yang Fuchen said happily, "Give me a reason not to kill you."

Zhu Guoqiang struggled desperately, and in his haste, he became wise and shouted: "If you don't kill me, I am willing to defraud Xingyang for the commander."
