At the meeting of the Ministers of the Political Consultative Conference, Prince An Yuele's proposal to set up a city in Guangzhou was recognized by Shunzhi. After the master made a statement, two important officials of the Yellow Banners, including Oboi, Suksaha, and others were no longer silent and jumped out of the proposal to set up a city in Guangzhou.

There were many people in the two yellow banners, and most of the Manchu and Han officials attached the proposal. At the critical moment, the old Grand Secretary Ning Wan, I didn't know what kind of chicken blood had been injected with, and I stood up and agreed to set up a city in Guangzhou. After the old scholars who had gone through three dynasties, the direction of the meeting of the King and Ministers of the Political Department changed drastically. Shang Shan and others could only stop the flag without support. After the meeting, the formal edict for setting up a city in Guangzhou was officially issued from the palace.

To set up a city, people must be transferred to the city to defend. The Eight Banners in the Beijing area are afraid of the hot weather in Guangdong, and the banner owners are afraid that their subordinate Dingkou will be pulled south and will damage their own strength, so they are unwilling to draw from their own banners, and they are quarreling with each other. The banner owners even joined forces to enter the palace and ask the Queen Mother to come forward to stop the establishment of the city in Guangzhou. But the Queen Mother said that the emperor had taken charge of the rule. Whether it was the matter of the foreign court or the Eight Banners, the emperor was the one who was in charge of it. She could not control it and did not want to care.

As soon as the Queen Mother came out, the stubborn banner owner did not dare to make a fuss. Soon, the meeting of the Ministers of Political Affairs decided to draw three Niulu from the Zhenglan Banner of Manzhou, which was formerly accompanied by Jingnan General Zhumala last year, and then draw four Niulu from the Inlaid White Banner to go south to Guangzhou to garrison.

The number of people in the Niulu Banners under the Eight Banners of Manzhou varies. There are more than 300 people, more than 600 people, and more than 1,100 people. This time, the number of people in the Manzhou Zhenglan Banners was transferred south to the south, and the number of people was only more than 1,300 people in the Inlaid White Banners.

Since the city was established, it was not just to send flag soldiers to the south, but the families of each Niulu flag soldiers also went south together. The total number of families reported from the two flags south was nearly 15,000. In this way, there were more than 2,400 Eight Banners soldiers stationed in Guangzhou and 15,000 families. This scale was not as large as the scale of 4,000 flag soldiers stationed in Jiangning and 30,000 families, but it was more than the city in Xi'an, Hangzhou, Jingzhou, Fuzhou and other places.

The new Guangzhou general was originally scheduled to be the general of Jingnan. However, since Zhu Mala returned to the capital last year, he has been infected with illness and was unable to go south again. Therefore, he was appointed as the general of Guangzhou by Zhangjing Hahamu, a garrison in Angbang, Jiangning.

On the 17th, the 7 Niulu soldiers from the two flags went south by Ezhengalaidaoga, the Zhenglan Banner, led the lead to Guangdong, and later the family went to Jiangning through the water route and then escorted to Guangzhou by General Jiangning.

At the same time, the imperial edict was 800 miles in a hurry to Guangzhou. The imperial edict asked Guangdong Governor Li Rutai to build a city in Guangzhou from the day of receiving the edict, preparing food and equipment needed for the Eight Banners. In addition, the King of Pingnan Shang Kexi, King Geng Jimao of Jingnan sent people to contact the new Guangzhou General Hahamu to discuss the matter of the Eight Banners' entry into defense of Guangdong. The imperial edict finally told Li Rutai that he requested the court to allocate silver and buy cannons with the Folang people. The imperial edict had approved it. The imperial edict did not mention the failure of the Qing army in Xinhui from beginning to end. As long as the two Guangdong vassals and localities work together to consolidate the situation, the Manchu army will set an enterprising strategy.

The proposal of his own invitation to set up Mancheng and buy cannons was finally recognized by the court, which made Li Lutai overjoyed, but made Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao feel as uncomfortable as if they had eaten a fly.

Shang Kexi asked Beijing to send Manzhou soldiers to the south just to complete his plan to move westward, but he didn't expect that Beijing would give him such a move. The soldiers were sent, but they did not leave as soon as they came, which made him feel uneasy. After all, Dorgon explained to him clearly that Guangdong was the place where the Qing Dynasty gave him the King of Pingnan. Now, in addition to having an extra vassal king, there is also a city where the country is resting. What does this mean? Is it better to monitor him?

Suffering and frustrated. Shang Kexi did not dare to turn against the court, so he could only pinch his nose and admit it. He has not been able to calm down recently. According to spies, many Ming troops gathered from Tan Jiang to Xinhui these days. The number of people is afraid that it will be less than 10,000 or 20,000. Chen Qice also kept moving and sent navy troops to Jiangmen from time to time, indicating that the Ming army gathered in Xinhui seemed to have plans to capture Sanjiangkou.

That's not all. The Taiping Army, who was originally trapped in Xinhui, crossed Tanjiang. Not only did it occupy Renhoufang, Xiangshan County, but it also divided its troops to occupy all the important roads. The Green Camp in Zengcheng wanted to regain the Liangzidu that was taken away by the Taiping Army, but more than a thousand people were defeated by dozens of Taiping Army cavalry in Yinpingzui Mountain. Less than half of the battalions ran back to Zengcheng, and the rest were all captured.

More than a thousand people could not defeat dozens of people, which made King Pingnan very angry. If it weren't for his most worried now, the Ming army in Xinhui attacked Sanjiangkou and waited for the Eight Banners to go south, he would have already set up elite troops to drive the Taiping army into the sea.

Geng Jimao was also secretly happy when he felt uncomfortable. He could not compete with him. Now that the imperial court has set up a city, Guangzhou has no other place. He simply seeks another place as a town, so he can save himself from being angry in Guangzhou.

Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, etc. No, those places are too far and too poor. Well, Fujian is a good place, but I don’t know how to get the court to move it to Fujian.

Geng Jimao was very troubled.

The two vassal kings in the south had a headache, but the flag soldiers and family members who went south of the capital were cursing. Fortunately, the flag soldiers were all Eight Banners men who immediately conquered the world, and they could go wherever the court gave them. But the family members were all elderly, children and women, so they could not understand the court. The emperor and the banner master could only send fire to the officials who came to move to defend themselves. For several days, they had a big fuss, and finally got on the ship that went south crying under the strict orders of the court.

...

The news that the imperial court was going to set up a city in Guangzhou soon reached the ears of Wu Sangui, the King of Pingxi who was resting in Hanzhong.

The monk Kexi, Geng Jimao's expression when he received the news, and Wu Sangui also had a deep brow. Although this incident did not happen to King Pingxi, Wu Sangui also ate a fly. What annoyed him even more was that Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao had Guangdong territory, but Wu Sangui made such a great effort for the Qing Dynasty and still had no territory of his own territory. He could only stay in this ghost place in Hanzhong, and even if he wanted to enjoy the treatment of someone sleeping soundly on the side of the collapse.

Fortunately, the Qing Dynasty did not forget that he worked hard and made great contributions. He made the fourteenth Princess Xu and his son Yingxiong, and made the Wu family a royal relative. He also gave Yingxiong a third-class Jingqi Hafan title, which shows that in the eyes of the court, he still has value in pacifying the King of Xi and is worthy of appeasement.

Perhaps it won't take long to start the court, and the court will not set up a whole city in Guangzhou for no reason. I think it should have taken action against Nanming. I heard that Li Dingguo robbed Yongli from Sun Kewang's rule and appointed Li Dingguo as King of Jin, Liu Wenxiu as King of Shu, and Bai Wen chose King of Gong. This is obviously going to completely draw a clear line with Sun Kewang. Could Sun Kewang not take action? (To be continued.)
