Chapter 60 Lure the Tiger

"When I heard that the emperor had entered the Central Plains, he waved his troops and marched south, long cherishing the desire to surrender. However, he was blocked by mountains and rivers, and he also learned that the troops had arrived. He immediately withdrew the troops stationed in various places, and also informed the prefectures to store grass and fodder to prepare for the arrival.

Army."

This is the title book that Zheng Zhilong asked General Boluo to pass to the Qing court.

"What does the bachelor think of the question book written by Zheng Zhilong?" Bolo asked his think tank. The bachelor of the inner academy had a dark forehead.

He has a black forehead, belongs to the Fucha family of the eight major surnames in Manchuria, is from the White Banner, and is an authentic slave of the Aisin Gioro family. In the Qing Dynasty, not everyone was qualified to call the word slave (Manchu: Aha).

This represents supreme glory.

"Master Bei, I think this title written by Zheng Zhilong to the court has two meanings: one is to express his merits; the other is to ask for an official position. Master Bei should report to the regent as soon as possible and give him an official position to reassure him."<

/p>

"Haha, the bachelor didn't know something. The matter of conferring the title of Prince Zheng Zhilong and becoming the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang was purely a lie by the commander and he did not report it to the regent."

His forehead was black and he was shocked. This master is good at everything, but he is too courageous!

"What should we do if the regent becomes angry?"

Bo Luo smiled slightly: "I know the temper of my 14th uncle best. I always reward those who have merit. This time I defeated the two emperors of Ming and Puppet in one fell swoop. It's too late for him to praise me, so how can he blame me for a Han?"
p>

He thought for a moment with a black forehead: "If Zheng Zhilong cannot be granted the title of king, he will surely become resentful and rebel again. He has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and our army only has 40,000. Bei Ziye must be on guard."

"I was worried about this, so I wanted to lure Zheng Zhilong into the camp and put him under house arrest. Unexpectedly, he hid in Anping and couldn't come out. Can the bachelor have any advice for me?"

The man with a black forehead thought for a moment: "We can find someone who is familiar with Zheng Zhilong and write a letter to persuade him to join the camp."

Bo Luo smiled and said: "Zheng Zhilong is a hero. I guess it won't be enough to just write a letter, we will have to send troops to force him."

"Master Bei, our army is small, and Zheng Zhilong's army is large. Send troops to force them, in case they become angry and rebel. What can I do?"

Bo Luo pinched his chin: "It doesn't matter. If I use troops to force him, Zheng Zhilong will send an envoy to ask me why. If I pretend not to know the matter again, I will rebuke the general leading the army in front of the envoy. He will definitely believe it.

Use a two-pronged approach to lure him into the camp. As long as Zheng Zhilong enters the commander's camp, hehe, it will be hard to fly!"

The two of them were discussing how to deal with Zheng Zhilong, when they suddenly reported that Gushan'e Zhentu Lai died in the army.

Boluo felt so sorry that he sent the coffin back to Beijing.

??

Anping Zheng Mansion, Zheng Zhilong is reading a letter.

This letter was written by Zheng Zhilong’s old friend, Quanzhou squire Guo Bichang. Guo Bichang served as Minister of War in the Ming Dynasty and had a close friendship with Zheng Zhilong.

At this time, Guo Bichang had surrendered to Boluo. He wrote in the letter how Boluo, the Qing Dynasty's southern general, looked up to Zheng Zhilong and looked forward to meeting Zheng Zhilong day and night. He asked Zheng Zhilong to come to Fuzhou to meet Boluo as soon as possible.

, there are huge benefits and so on.

What great benefit? Guo Bichang didn't explain it clearly. Zheng Zhilong thought, could it be that he wanted to make me the King of Anping? His heart was pounding.

While he was hesitating, it was suddenly reported that Zhenfulakta at the foot of Qinggu Mountain was leading the Eight Banners army and approaching Anping.

Fulakta, a member of the Yellow Banners of Manchuria, is of the Guoerluo family. He is neither a royal family nor one of the eight Manchurian surnames. He can get into the position of Gushan Ezhen all because of two words: he is good at fighting. He has three thousand Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners.

, extremely elite.

Fulakta led his troops to Anping City and galloped around Anping all day long, showing off his military might.

It is strange to say that Zheng Zhilong's hundreds of thousands of troops actually cowered in the city in front of the Three Thousand Eight Banners, not daring to fight.

Zheng Zhilong was very unhappy, Bolo, Bolo, since you look up to me and want to be with me for a while, why did you send troops to force me?

So he sent an envoy to Boluo to ask: "I am afraid that setting up a king will be a crime. If you recruit me, why force me?"

Hearing that Zheng Zhilong's envoy had arrived, Boluo received him cordially, spoke humbly, and asked about his welfare.

"What? Is there such a thing? I asked Fulakta to invite General Zheng to meet, and this guy actually set off to commit murder in Anping? Come on, call Fulakta to me." In front of the envoy, Bolo

Pretending not to know this.

Fulakta came to the big tent, and Bolo scolded him, saying that he didn't understand what he meant and dared to harass General Zheng, whom he had always admired. He was really a bastard and deserved death.

"You are a reckless man in Fulakta Wilderness. He is used to being wild in the white mountains and black waters. He does not understand etiquette. Don't be offended." Bolo said to the envoy, changing the subject. "However, General Zheng has surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, but he has not been with me for a long time."

If we meet, it is inevitable that my subordinates will have doubts. Please tell General Zheng when you return and ask him to come to Fuzhou to meet me as soon as possible. Our Qing Dynasty lacks naval forces, and the thousands of miles of sea territory in Fujian and Zhejiang are entrusted to General Zheng. I swear to God,

You will not be in trouble."

After the envoy returned, he told Zheng Zhilong that Bolo was sincere and did not seem to be deceitful.

Boluo ordered the army to retreat thirty miles, and sent a bachelor of the inner academy, forehead color black, to Anping to meet Zheng Zhilong with his own handwritten letter.

Zheng Zhilong opened the letter and read it: "The reason why I value generals is because generals can establish the Tang vassal. If a minister serves the master, he must do his best if he can do anything; if he cannot defeat the heavens with all his strength, he will surrender to the enemy."

It is a heroic thing to take advantage of the opportunity to make achievements. If the general does not assist the lord, why should I use the general? Moreover, the two countries of Guangdong are not at peace, so now I have cast the seal of the governor of Fujian and Guangdong to treat each other. I want to see the general because of the business.



Oops! This young man, Bolo, is really nice, and his letter is touching. If I don’t go, I’m afraid his good intentions will be spoiled. Besides, they even cast the official seal of the Governor of Fujian and Guangdong for me!

Zheng Zhilong made up his mind to go to Fuzhou to meet Boluo.

??

When he heard that his father was going to Fuzhou to meet Boluo, Zhu Chenggong was shocked and hurriedly persuaded Zheng Zhilong.

Zhu Chenggong was the legitimate son of Zheng Zhilong. Emperor Longwu liked his loyalty and gave him the surname Zhu, so he changed his name successfully. He was also grateful to Emperor Longwu for his kindness and always wanted to repay his kindness. Unexpectedly, his father welcomed the Qing troops into Fujian. The eight hundred miles of mountains and rivers are now full of fishy smell.

!

Zhu Chenggong advised Zheng Zhilong, saying: "My father always holds great power and should not change his mind lightly. Judging from the details, the land of Fujian and Guangdong is no better than that of the north. If you rely on high risks and set up ambushes, even if there are millions

, I’m afraid it will be difficult to fly once it happens. Gather people’s hearts to consolidate their roots; open up sea lanes, build and sell various ports to meet their wages. Then select generals, train troops, and call on the world. It will not be difficult to make progress.”

He wanted to persuade Zheng Zhilong to separate Fujian and rebel against the Qing Dynasty and become independent. Unexpectedly, Zheng Zhilong was used to a good life and was unwilling to fight again.

He refuted his son and said: "Children talk nonsense and don't know the time of day. I am separated by a natural chasm, and the powerful soldiers in the four towns cannot resist the enemy, let alone a corner. If you can't draw a tiger, don't you look like a dog?"

Zhu Chenggong did not give up and persuaded again: "My father has seen roughly, but he has not detailed the opportunity, the time and place are favorable, and there are different opinions. Although the Qing Dynasty's soldiers and horses are strong, they cannot advance for a long time. There is no one in our dynasty's committee, and the civil servants are exercising power.

Once the ice cracks and disintegrates, it will lead to the tragedy of Meishan. Therefore, in the right time, he will go straight in, cut off the evil and ugly, and inherit the unification. He will go to Nandu, but the Yangtze River will lose its support. If you look closely at the reason, you are not the king who fights the rebellion.

, and there are many mediocre ministers, so the heroes of the world are hated, and it is difficult to rely on the natural chasm. If my father takes advantage of its ruggedness to control its dangerous points, then the geographical advantages will still exist and the people's hearts will be able to accept it."

Zheng Zhilong became angry: "You are a hero who knows the current situation. Now you recruit me and value me, you must be polite to me. If you compete with me, once you lose, you will beg for mercy, and you will regret it later. Look down on others, be careful not to talk too much."

After Zhu Chenggong was scolded by Zheng Zhilong, he returned to his room angrily.

In order to prevent his son from croaking, Zheng Zhilong got up early the next day and rushed to Fuzhou with 500 guards.

After Zhu Chenggong heard this, he was very anxious and rode a fast horse to catch up with Zheng Zhilong.

He knelt on the ground, held Zheng Zhilong's sleeve, and cried: "Father! A tiger cannot leave the mountain, and a fish cannot escape from the abyss. If it leaves the mountain, it will lose its power, if it escapes from the abyss, it will be trapped and killed immediately. Please think twice before you act."
Zheng Zhilong refused to listen and threw away his sleeves, letting his left and right men drag Zhu Chenggong away. He quickly whipped up his horse and headed straight for Fuzhou. He seemed to see the official seal of the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang waving to him.

??

Boluo was overjoyed when he heard that Zheng Zhilong was here.

He personally went out of the city to greet Zheng Zhilong.

Seeing Zheng Zhilong, Bolo first said some polite words of admiration, and then asked someone to bring out an arrow.

"What do you mean, Mr. Beizi?"

Bolo broke the arrow in two: "The general and I broke the arrow and swore to share the wealth and honor and never lose each other!"

Zheng Zhilong was deeply moved, and his last caution was gone. He happily entered Fuzhou City with Bolo.

After entering the city, Boluo dispersed Zheng Zhilong's guards into various camps and ate and drank freely. He also drank happily with Zheng Zhilong for three days in a row.

On the night of the third day, while Zheng Zhilong was still drunk, he suddenly received a military order from Bolo, asking Zheng Zhilong to leave camp and return to Beijing with Bolo to meet the regent Dorgon.

At this time, Zheng Zhilong knew that he had been caught in the trap, but he was already in the tiger's den and had nothing to do.

It's a pity that he has traveled all over the world and been arrogant for half his life. Even the British Lord Longwu was controlled by him. Such a huge whale was actually deceived by Aixinjueluo Bolo, who was only 32 years old, and became

A fish out of water.

The dragon lost its power, just like the earthworm.

Zheng Zhilong had no choice but to tactfully plead with Boluo, saying that since he personally had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, it was his wish to go to Beijing to "face the Holy Spirit"; however, his eldest son and brothers who stayed on the coast of Fujian had considerable troops, and once he entered Beijing

, the response is not good, I’m afraid the sea will be troubled from now on.

Bolo sneered: "The general's subordinates are of great importance to me. Please ask the general to write a book and recruit them for me."

Zheng Zhilong had no choice but to write several letters to his subordinates, asking them to follow Bolo's orders.

He also wanted to use his subordinates as bargaining chips and did not want to go to Beijing.

Unexpectedly, Bolo turned ruthless and revealed his murderous intent: "This has nothing to do with you, and it is not my concern. You go quickly and don't hesitate."

In order to make Zheng Zhilong walk faster, Boluo selected five hundred and eight banner warriors, escorted Zheng Zhilong, and rushed to Beijing.

After settling Zheng Zhilong, Boluo used the letter written by Zheng Zhilong to recruit his old troops to surrender. He actually recruited Wu Yibo, Shifu, Chengjibo, Zheng Zhibao and his subordinates with ten soldiers, totaling 113,000 soldiers. The number of troops in his hands was reduced.

From 40,000 to more than 150,000.

Then Boluo ordered Tong Yangjia and Li Chengdong to lead the generals Shi Fu, Shi Lang, Liang Li, Huang Ting, Cheng Sheng, Hong Xishan and 50,000 surrender troops who were originally under Zheng Zhilong to attack Guangdong; he also ordered the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian Zhang Chengren and other generals to attack Guangdong.

Troops were divided to guard various parts of Fujian.

After finishing these tasks, Bolo led 6,000 Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners and some northern Green Camp soldiers back to Beijing.

Let the surrendered troops do the task of wiping out the remaining forces of the Southern Ming Dynasty. Using the Han to control the Han is the basic national policy of the Qing Dynasty. The lives of the Manchu princes are precious and cannot be spent.

??

I heard that Boluo only brought 6,000 Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners and 20,000 surrender troops to wipe out the two major regimes of Nanming, Lujianguo and Longwu. The regent Dorgon was very happy.

He sighed: "Seventh brother gave birth to a good son!"

Dorgon asked Emperor Shunzhi to confer Bolo the title of Duanzhong County Prince.

Dorgon was even happier when he heard that the veteran general Tu Lai died of illness in the army: Tu Lai, Tu Lai, no matter how cruel you are, won't you still be killed by a solitary?

In order to protect the throne of Taiji's eldest son Hauge, Tu Lai drew his sword and pointed it at Dorgon's nose and cursed him. Dorgon was angry and said to him: "Who are you going to show your power to with such anger and voice? Can you give it to me?"

Are all the kings not descendants of the late emperor?"

Knowing that Tu Lai was ill, Dorgon forced him to go into battle. As expected, Tu Lai was tortured to death.

But everyone was dead, so Dorgon didn't care about it anymore, and let Tu Lai's son Huise take over his father's first-class dukedom.

As for Zheng Zhilong, he didn’t know that the sky was high and the earth was high, so he actually wanted to be the king and the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang! Humph! Do you think that the Qing Dynasty is the Ming Dynasty, and can I tolerate the separation of vassal towns like you?

Regardless of whether Zheng Zhilong liked it or not, Dorgon incorporated him into the Zhenghong Banner of the Han Army and rewarded him with a first-class fine Qinihafan, which was equivalent to the Viscount of the Ming Dynasty. Zhou Li, the Duke of Bozinan, was the last of the five nobles.

2. Middle and lower nobles.

After doing this, Dorgon's eyes have focused on another regent in Beijing, Prince Heshuo Zheng Jierhalang.

"Jilharang, ah Jilharang, you and Hauge are collaborating and working against Gu. Now Hauge has been deceived by Gu to go to Sichuan. The two yellow flags and the important generals of Zhenglan Banner, Gu also ordered them to go on an expedition. Ru

I am alone in Beijing. Let's see how I deal with you," Dorgon thought darkly.
