The word "Vientiane" is too big, so it is really not good to use it as a year name!
Wu Sangui knows.
However, he knew it was okay, but what did Liu Xuanchu mean by saying it?
Do you look down on me, Wu Sangui?
Liu Xuanchu was stared at by Wu Sangui with such eyes, and a clear layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
After pondering for a moment, Liu Xuanchu finally spoke.
"To report to the emperor, I recommend that the emperor use the word "update" as the year name!"
"The one who renews everything is renewed!"
"Everything is new and the world is new. This shows that after the emperor ascends the throne, he will bring a new atmosphere to the world."
Wu Sangui's face looked a little better after hearing this, but he still continued to ask other people.
"Do you have any other opinions?"
Wu Yingxiong stood up from the class and said.
"Perhaps Zhaowu can be used as the year name!"
"It means manifest martial arts to express the greatness of our martial arts in the Qing Dynasty, which is far ahead of the contemporary times!"
Suddenly, Wu Sangui was moved. For some reason, he felt that the word "Zhaowu" was inexplicably pleasant to his ears.
Zhaowu, Zhaowu!
Showing off his martial arts skills, isn't this what he needs to do now?
By displaying force, he declares his power to the world, thereby making the world surrender.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Good Zhaowu, good Zhaowu!"
"The title of my reign after I ascend the throne will be Zhaowu!"
"..."
Wu Sangui stood up from the throne and laughed loudly.
The loud laughter showed his satisfaction with his title!
When everyone saw this scene, they all bowed down and said.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Historically, when Wu Sangui ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor in Hengzhou, his reign name was Zhaowu.
However, at that time, Wu Sangui was the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, but now his Wu Sangui is the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
After everyone paid their respects, Wu Sangui issued his first edict after ascending the throne.
"First, change Xi'an to Chang'an and make it the companion capital of the Qing Dynasty. It will be the seat of my travels and have the same status as Kunming!"
After everyone agreed, Wu Sangui then spoke.
"Second, pass the decree to the soldiers and generals of the three towns of Yulin, Ningxia, and Guyuan, saying that I, Aixinjueluo Sangui, have ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and will inherit the Qing Dynasty."
"As long as they choose to be loyal to me, I will not be stingy with the reward of becoming a prince!"
The little eunuch beside him quickly recorded the imperial edict, then used the seal, and Wu Sangui continued to speak.
"The second point is to send a church to Shanxi, Henan and other places near Guanzhong and ask them to surrender to me. Otherwise, there is no point in saying no!"
"Third point, order the army to prepare to march eastward to Tongguan and prepare to meet the invading enemy forces at Tongguan!"
Obviously, Wu Sangui's threat to Shanxi and Henan was purely verbal.
He was not prepared to leave Guanzhong at all, but was prepared to defend Tongguan to preserve the basic position of Guanzhong he had just won.
In fact, things are easy to understand!
Now Guan Ning's army has just come out of Chencang Road and captured Xi'an. How many miles has it traveled along the way?
Although they had never experienced any high-intensity battles during this period, the long march still made the entire Guan Ning Army very tired.
Furthermore, Wu Sangui has just entered Guanzhong, and the various places in Guanzhong have not yet completely surrendered.
And due to the terrain restrictions of Chencang Road, Guan Ning's army's supply of food and grass is now somewhat stretched!
Under such circumstances, Wu Sangui would go crazy and advance to Shanxi and Henan.
Wouldn't it be good to defend Tongguan and wait until Guan Ning's army digests Guanzhong before steadily advancing on him?
Anyway, there is no military pressure on Wu Sangui now!
Because almost all of the Qing government's mobile forces were thrown into the decisive battle in Jiangnan.
Now the Qing court has no ability to counterattack Guanzhong!
In this case, why should Wu Sangui be anxious?
…
One after another, edicts were issued to all parts of Guanzhong.
The news that Wu Sangui ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and that his reign was named Zhaowu, spread rapidly throughout Guanzhong as if it had wings.
Yulin, Ningxia, and Guyuan surrendered to Wu Sangui under Wang Fuchen's persuasion after receiving Wu Sangui's promise of a title.
Wu Sangui personally met with the chief generals of the three towns in Chang'an City and handed out the promised rewards.
The Four Fortresses in Guanzhong and other places also sent letters of surrender one after another. Local officials and garrison generals all chose to surrender to Wu Sangui.
There is nothing we can do about this!
Now the Qing government basically has no mobile troops to mobilize, and Zhu Hongyu cannot move.
The most powerful mobile force in the world right now is the Guan Ning Army in the hands of Wu Sangui.
Regardless of whether it is the three passes of Yulin, Ningxia, Guyuan, or the four fortresses of Guanzhong, their forces are now limited. Without reinforcements, they are simply unable to resist Wu Sangui's attack.
In such a situation, what choice will these people make? Is there any point in guessing?
Of course, surrender and stay safe!
Do you have to wait until Wu Sangui's big sword is about to hit your head before you know how to be afraid?
Except for these important places, the entire Guanzhong government was vying to surrender to Wu Sangui, and Wu Sangui quickly took the entire Guanzhong into his hands.
…
Beijing!
Imperial Palace, Wenhua Palace!
The eyes of one after another crossed each other, and they were constantly discussing things.
The news that Wu Sangui's troops entered Guanzhong and proclaimed himself emperor after taking Chang'an flew into the capital as if it had wings.
The entire Qing court was first shocked, then angry, and then deeply panicked.
Shocked by Wu Sangui’s courage!
Angry that Wu Sangui dared to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor!
Feeling terrified about what will happen next!
For the Qing court, Wu Sangui's ascension to the throne and proclaimed himself emperor was actually a more fateful event than the Ming Dynasty's revival in Jiangnan.
Because, even if the Ming Dynasty revived, for the Qing government, it would just lose the south and gain an enemy.
From the perspective of the Manchu and Qing senior officials, the most they could do was retreat to Jiangbei.
Relying on the Qing court's superiority in cavalry, the Manchu and Qing leaders did not believe that the Ming army could defeat them on the Great Plains of North China.
Furthermore, from the perspective of the senior management of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, if they really could no longer stand in the Central Plains, it would not be impossible for them to withdraw from the Central Plains and return to their hometown outside the customs.
Anyway, the current top management of the Manchu Qing Dynasty still does not regard themselves as the orthodox people in the world. Deep down in their hearts, they still regard themselves as an invader.
As an aggressor, isn't it normal for them to run away if they can't defeat them?!
In addition, the top management of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties at this time were not very confident about taking over the Central Plains and felt that it was too smooth.
They didn't have much psychological expectations in the first place, and now that they have to return to the outside world, they naturally won't feel much of a gap.
It’s very quick to accept the facts!
However, Wu Sangui ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor as a member of the Qing clan, and the country's name was also Qing.
From the perspective of senior officials in the Qing court, this was not the case.
Wu Sangui wants to seize the Qing Dynasty!
How do you say that, heretics are more hateful than heretics!
The Qing court could tolerate the Ming Dynasty's revival and expansion in the southeast.
But he absolutely cannot tolerate Wu Sangui ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor!
What's more, Wu Sangui ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor under the title of Qing Dynasty!
