Besides, in Nanjing today, although there is a six-department team, it does not have much real power. Even most of the officials there are Donglin Party members. He has killed many Donglin Party members recently. If Prince Zhu Cixiang gets there, he will definitely
Will encounter some difficulties, then the existence of Guan Ningjun is necessary.
Even though there are still hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the south, their generals don't have many generals. The only one is Yi or Zhang Xianzhong's adopted son, Li Dingguo. This man has the ambition to serve the country and is more handsome. If
If he tries to restore the Central Plains and conquer the Qing Dynasty in the future, this person must submit to the Ming Dynasty.
In addition, Huang Degong was a man of rare caliber and extraordinary courage. When he was young, he mingled among the troops with a knife, decapitated him twice, and gave it to his mother in exchange for a reward of fifty taels of silver. Zhu Ling naturally liked such a talented and fierce general very much.
.
Now, as Jingnan Bo, he is guarding a town in the south of the Yangtze River. To eliminate Liu Zeqing, a general must be in charge. Although Yang Kuo is the deputy commander-in-chief of the Guanning Army, his courage is not as bold as these few people.
At that time, if Yang Kuo has the heart to be loyal to the emperor and has nothing to do with Wu, he can win over him. If once he has the heart to be loyal to Wu Sangui, then this person must die.
Huang Degong is so powerful that he can take over Li Yuan's position.
But now whether Guan Ningjun can be taken away by him really depends on Wu Sangui. Although this person still has a heart of loyalty to the emperor, he is in such a situation and it is impossible to figure out his thoughts.
Thinking of this, I really should continue to draw up an imperial edict for Wu Sangui, so he called Wang Chengen and said: "Draw up an imperial edict for Wu Sangui."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"Just tell him that he will coordinate all major military and political affairs in the Xuanda area of Liaodong. He has only one purpose: to delay Jiannu and never allow Jiannu to go south. And tell him, don't worry about hitting the capital. There are people guarding it.
, I am not here either, so let him fight with peace of mind. In the future, when the imperial court makes the Northern Expedition, he, Wu Sangui, will take the lead."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Ling was still a little worried. Later generations said that Wu Sangui was a traitor, but in fact it was because Chongzhen hanged himself and the capital fell. At that time, the Ming Dynasty no longer had an emperor. Therefore, for him, the Ming Dynasty he was loyal to
The dynasty had been destroyed, and was attacked by Li Zicheng and Dorgon, so it had no choice but to surrender.
"Your Majesty, Wu Sangui already has power in Liaodong, and his uncle Zu Dashou is now a minister of Jiannu. If the imperial court fails, will Wu Sangui directly give up the Shanhaiguan area he is defending to Jiannu?"
Wang Chengen was still a little worried about Zhu Ling's arrangement. Although Wu Sangui was indeed very brave before, he has yet to send troops to serve the king. If His Majesty hadn't been so determined to make him king, I'm afraid he wouldn't have sent another army at all.
King Qin’s army.
Just acting like this makes people worry about his behavior.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not dead yet. Before he reaches a desperate situation, Wu Sangui will not give up his family first, and his reputation secondly. In the eyes of Jiannu and Daming, he is a hot potato, and he himself
She also knows very well in her heart that as long as I don’t die, she will not rebel.”
After hearing this, Wang Chengen said nothing more and went directly to draft the decree.
The team had been here for several hours. It was getting late, but there was no place for the team to rest. While thinking about it, they called Wang Guoxing and Yang Kuo.
"It's already Unit Time. Where should the team rest? Do you two have any ideas?"
Wang Guo
It’s not too late to take a break.”
After Wang Guoxing finished speaking, Yang Kuo raised his hand and said, "I second the proposal."
Since these two people said this, Zhu Ling agreed with what they said in his heart, and nodded and let them go down to prepare. After hearing this, all the ministers thought it made sense and nodded in agreement.
But at this time, the people sent by Luo Rucai finally found Li Guo, who was let go by Yang Kuo. When they brought him to him, he had already fainted.
Seeing Li Guo in such a state of embarrassment, Luo Rucai felt a little stunned. He obviously brought so many troops, but he suffered such a disastrous defeat this time, and his whole body was almost seriously injured.
"General, wouldn't it be great if General Li returned to the camp like this?" Seeing his general like this, Liu Ming didn't feel any care in his heart. Instead, he was worried that King Shun would find out about this defeat and blame him.
"If he returns to the camp and is seen by King Shun, let alone punishing him, even I will be angered." At this point, Luo Ru couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and looked aside to be helped to the carriage to rest.
Li Guo.
King Shun gave him 30,000 elite soldiers, but he couldn't defeat even 10,000. Such a disastrous defeat would be asking for death. But it doesn't matter if he dies, but he will be punished.
Luo Rucai didn't know that Li Zicheng had already planned. If he had a son in the future, he would make him emperor; if not, he would let Luo Rucai inherit the throne. Although punishment was unavoidable, he still had the qualifications.
Seemingly sensing Luo Rucai's dissatisfaction and worry, Liu Ming rolled his eyes and couldn't help but come up with a plan. He immediately stepped forward and said, "General, there is one thing that will prevent you from being punished, but will instead be praised by the king."
"oh?"
Hearing this, Luo Rucai couldn't help but be a little curious, so he turned around and asked, "What's your plan? Let me tell you."
"Although the emperor has gone far, the capital is still here. Now the Guan Ning army has left. Most of the people left in the city are just some miscellaneous soldiers. We have tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers from the capital camp. Let them
When you attack a city, you can capture the capital without losing any people." Liu Ming said proudly.
After listening to Liu Ming's analysis, Luo Rucai suddenly had an idea and touched his chin to think carefully.
"General, if we attack the city immediately at this moment, the defenders in the capital will definitely be careless and caught off guard, and will be easily captured." Seeing Luo Rucai's hesitation, Liu Ming couldn't help but persuade him anxiously.
Based on his own assumptions, the defenders in the capital must have believed that the invading army outside would pursue the emperor at all costs, but they would never have imagined that the invading army would abandon the emperor and instead besiege the capital.
"This matter cannot be taken carelessly. Our army now only has 30,000 troops. Even if the defenders in the city are vulnerable, there are still some people who are good at fighting. What's more, the city of Beijing is high and strong. The former Oala and Jiannu did not attack when they arrived at the gate of the capital.
Can we go in with only thirty thousand of us?" After thinking for a long time, Luo Rucai still felt that something was wrong.
"But if the defenders of Beijing are given a chance to breathe, it will definitely be even more difficult to attack the city in the future."
"There is no rush. It is necessary to capture the capital, but we have to think about it in the long term." Luo Ru then walked forward to a higher ground and looked at the capital to the west from a distance.
When Liu Ming saw this, he hurriedly followed him. Seeing the other party's appearance, he was extremely anxious.
"Go and invite the Prime Minister here, and tell General Luo to ask him something."
After hearing this, Liu Ming couldn't help but have some questions, and then asked: "General, the prime minister and the capital?"
"It doesn't hurt to tell you that in the past few days, we had people at most of the city gates in Beijing, and many of the eunuchs had already planned to surrender to us. Negotiating peace with the emperor was just to give him face, or to give in.
Dashun ascended the throne justifiably, but now that such a change has occurred, it is naturally different from the past."
"But, those of us are still lurking inside."
"I obey!" Hearing this, Liu Ming couldn't help but be overjoyed. He immediately mounted his horse, whipped his whip, and rushed towards the camp.
