Zhu Yiyuan and Yan Ermei chatted until midnight, and both of them were in a very good mood. From Yan Ermei's mouth, Zhu Yiyuan got news about the rebels in various places.
Shandong, Southern Zhili, Jiangxi, Fujian and Zhejiang... Although the two capitals fell and the Ming Dynasty perished, there are still thousands of people with lofty ideals on the land of China who are unwilling to surrender. They either run around to contact each other or raise an army angrily.
Even though he knew it was a trap, he still refused to give up.
If people's hearts are not dead, they will continue to fight.
Zhu Yiyuan felt warm and relieved from this news. He was not alone. He was fighting with countless heroes and lofty ideals.
Just this little comfort was enough to make Zhu Yiyuan feel at ease.
After all, when Qingshi gathered a few hundred people to fight against the Qing Dynasty, it was like a petty fly shaking a tree and overestimating his own capabilities. But when tens of thousands of people fight together, hope is no longer so slim.
Yan Ermei also found what he wanted from Zhu Yiyuan.
This young man has a clear mind and a broad mind. His idea of inheriting the ideas of Li Chuang and Wang Juntian is very consistent with the current situation. After all, at this moment, Nanming has realized that it is necessary to unite Dashun and Daxi to fight against the Qing court, the main enemy.
If we can really unite the rebel armies from all over Shandong and combine the power of the Ming Dynasty, we can still compete with the Qing court.
But Yan Ermei couldn't be optimistic.
"Master Zhu, have you heard about Hong Chengchou?"
Zhu Yiyuan frowned and said slowly: "I got the news that he has been appointed as the governor of Jiangnan, and he has already left for the south. Soon he will pass through Shandong and go to South Zhili to replace Dorgon's younger brother Duo.
Duo."
Yan Ermei nodded repeatedly, full of grief and indignation, "Master Zhu, this Hong thief, he was the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and served as the governor of the three sides, the governor of Jiliao, and the military governor of the five provinces. Do you know that after he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty,
The consequences are so terrible! The world is shattered and the earth is shattered, causing endless disasters."
Zhu Yiyuan naturally knew this. Hong Chengchou was basically the most capable civil servant in the Ming Dynasty and could be called a pillar. His surrender to the Qing court was basically equivalent to Marshal Zhu surrendering to the head of state. Just imagine, what would that look like?
The entire Ming Dynasty's military morale collapsed in an instant, and it was difficult to recover.
In fact, the Qing court took advantage of Li Zicheng, so Li Zicheng took advantage of the Qing Dynasty... They helped each other, burned the inside and outside together, and finally sent the Ming Dynasty to the crematorium.
At this moment, Hong Chengchou was recruiting Jiangnan as the Governor-General of the Qing Dynasty... He alone was enough to destroy half of the military morale.
In addition, Hong Chengchou was cunning and cunning, and he was familiar with the virtues of scholar-bureaucrats. If he was allowed to take action, it would be Qin Shihuang taking a nap - he would win by lying down!
Yan Ermei gritted her teeth and said, "Master Zhu, in addition to contacting heroes when I go north this time, I also have another idea, which is to assassinate Hong Chengchou."
"Assassination?" Zhu Yiyuan's eyes widened, "Mr. Yan, Hong Chengchou has been in charge of the army for many years and is very cautious. He knows how much he is hated by people, and he will definitely not leave any flaws."
Yan Ermei gritted her teeth, "Of course I know this, but my life and death are small matters. Even if the chance is slim, I will follow Bolang Sha's attack and make the old thief panic."
Zhu Yiyuan took a deep breath. Needless to say, Hong Chengchou was dangerous. It was also necessary to kill Hong Chengchou.
Just relying on assassination, the number of successes may not be said to be none, but it can also be said to be negative.
Yan Ermei is naturally aware of this, but he is still willing to fight because he is too aware of the dangers of Hong Chengchou.
Zhu Yiyuan frowned, "Mr. Yan, I admire your courage late in life, but if you sacrifice it in vain, there is no need. And Hong Chengchou, an old thief, is not Dorgon, so there is no use in scaring him, but it will make him pay more.
The Qing court is working hard. All in all, I don’t agree with what you are doing.”
Yan Ermei grimaced and smiled helplessly, "Mr. Zhu, I know what you mean, but I'm afraid you don't know. There are many bastards among the Jiangnan gentry who want to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. They just don't have the means. Once Hong Chengchou arrives in Jiangnan, no one will surrender.
Number. I, I have had dealings with the princes of Fushe, and I know their virtues. By that time, the situation will be irreversible."
Zhu Yiyuan was slightly startled. This old thief, Hong Chengchou, had indeed had too great an influence.
"Mr. Yan, I still think there is no chance of the assassination being successful. And now that Hong Chengchou is dead, the Qing government will only give a large reward, hold a lively funeral... and buy horse bones with thousands of gold, in order to win people's hearts."
Yan Ermei subconsciously widened her eyes with a look of pain, "So, even if you kill Hong Thief, it will be of no use?"
Zhu Yiyuan nodded, "After all, there is no Hong Chengchou, and there is Fan Wencheng. At this time, it is not easy for the Qing court to find a few surrender ministers. Take Zichuan as an example, Han Yuan has already gone, and Sun Zhi
Hae."
At this point, there is not much left in the warm atmosphere just now.
The Yuyuan Rebel Army and the martyrs everywhere are certainly inspiring, but the thought of these shameless traitors will make your blood pressure rise and make you angry to death.
"Master Zhu, according to what you said, there is nothing we can do?"
Zhu Yiyuan thought for a while and suddenly said: "Mr. Yan, I want to ask you, what are scholar-bureaucrats most afraid of?"
"This - I'm afraid of death. The only way to die is through the ages. I'm also afraid of losing my reputation. After all, a scholar-bureaucrat wants to lose face. He's despised by the world and despised by everyone. It's more uncomfortable than killing him. But Hong Chengchou was able to surrender to the Qing court and become a second minister.
, it’s already shameless. Ordinary swearing is useless, and the old thief won’t care at all.” Yan Ermei lamented: “Just take it now, are there not many people scolding the Hong thief? It’s just the old thief Hong.
It’s very clear that there are many people who publicly scold him, but secretly still demand from him. They are just a bunch of bitches who have nowhere to go.”
Yan Ermei slapped her thigh hard, furious, and sighed, "How did the Ming Dynasty raise such a bunch of people?"
Zhu Yiyuan also rolled his eyes. At this moment, Qian Qianyi was afraid that the water was too cold and his scalp was itchy... Looking at the world, the most indispensable thing is insects.
"Mr. Yan, the Hong thief wouldn't care about the abuse from ordinary scholars, but if he is insulted on the pretext of family members, can it shake his heart?" Zhu Yiyuan asked.
"Family?" Yan Ermei thought for a moment and said, "Are you talking about his parents? The old thief's parents are both in his hometown in Fujian."
Zhu Yiyuan nodded slightly, suddenly stretched out his index finger and wrote eight words on the ground.
Yan Ermei glanced at it and saw that Zhu Yiyuan wrote "Six relatives are not recognized, and all relatives are betrayed and separated". He couldn't help but fell into deep thought...
On the Grand Canal, boats go south.
The largest ship has many flags on the deck, which read: Prince Taibao, Minister of War, Yushi of Youdu, Governor of Military Affairs, Recruiting Southern University Scholar...
This string of flags indicates the unusual status of the people on the ship.
This man is the former pillar of the Ming Dynasty, now the lackey of the Qing Dynasty, the rumored boyfriend of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, and the most famous traitor, Hong Chengchou!
He has a white face, long beard, gentle manner, and the demeanor of a Confucian general and famous minister.
When Hong Chengchou left, Dorgon had made it clear that he was going south to recruit celebrities and stabilize the place. Yingtian had already obtained it, and the remaining Ming army was nothing more than fallen flowers and leaves, not worth mentioning.
Therefore, the Qing government also changed its strategy and no longer relied solely on military conquest.
Dorgon adjusted so quickly that he deserves a word of wisdom.
Hong Chengchou sighed in his heart, with the Ming Dynasty's procrastinating behavior of repeatedly quarreling and going back and forth and unable to make a decision after a few years when something happened, why should they compete with the Qing Dynasty? Isn't this a joke!
When he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he surrendered to the Holy Lord and ushered in a prosperous era. His colleagues and old friends would all understand.
While he was pondering, he saw that in front of the fleet was Dongchang Mansion. Shandong Governor Fang Dayou and his officials were waiting on the shore.
At this moment, the shore can be said to be buzzing with gongs and drums, firecrackers blasting, flags and flags fluttering, and a sea of people.
Fang Dayou showed his enthusiasm to welcome Hong Chengchou.
At this moment, Hong Chengchou was also satisfied and ordered the ships to stop. He also met with Shandong officials.
Hong Chengchou stood on the deck and was about to get off the ship. Suddenly his eyes swept across and there was a black flag among the welcoming flags.
Who is blind?
What a bad luck.
Hong Chengchou was slightly angry. He looked carefully and saw two words on the flag: Liuli!
He was even more surprised. What kind of allusion was this? He had never heard of it before.
Hong Chengchou got off the boat and met Fang Dayou and others. After the two sides exchanged greetings, Hong Chengchou saw the eyesore black flag again, so he simply asked someone to bring the flag over.
When the black flag was brought closer, everyone discovered that there was a white ribbon on the flagpole.
On the white silk, there are bright red writings.
For those who betray their country and seek glory, their ancestors will not recognize you as their queen, their parents will not recognize you as their son, their wives and concubines will not recognize you as their husband, and their children will not recognize you as their father. Brothers and sisters will not recognize you as their relative, and the common people will not recognize you as a human being.
Everyone rebels and leaves!
When Hong Chengchou saw the word "Liu Li" on the flag again, his face instantly turned red. Fang Dayou and others were even more frightened... What kind of evil spirit did this? This chapter has been completed!
