Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty-One Helping Zhou for Abuse
Chapter 321 "Aiding the Tyrant"
In the back hall of the Jinan Yamen, Pang Gang and Wei Tongnian sat on their knees. Looking at Pang Gang's increasingly majestic and determined face, Wei Tongnian stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Chaodong, if you could come three days earlier, my name is Dorgon."
It’s impossible to escape even if you have wings. If we can annihilate or severely injure Dorgon, we will have great achievements. (-< Shuhaige>-Net.) "
Pang Gang smiled and shook his head and said: "My father-in-law, you take Dorgon too easily. All you can do to defeat Dorgon in Jinan is just relying on the power of the city wall. If you go out of the city to fight Dorgon in the field,
, we still don’t know who will win.”
Since they were a family and they were talking behind closed doors, Pang Gang's words were very direct, but it still made Wei Tongnian feel a little embarrassed. He glared and said: "I have killed five or six thousand Tatars these days.
, it’s not much different from the commotion you made in the Tatar hinterland, right?”
Wei Tongnian got excited when he spoke, but Pang Gang smiled bitterly. However, as a junior, he couldn't say much, so he just smiled lightly.
Fortunately, Wei Tongnian was just joking with him. After saying something, Wei Tongnian changed the subject: "Chaodong, Dorgon hit a rock in Jinan. He must have gone to join forces with Yue Tuo, so our capital
But it’s dangerous, what do you think about this?”
Pang Gang shook his head: "Father-in-law, my son-in-law is not too worried about the capital. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of capital camps there. No matter how corrupt they are, they can resist it for a while. But what I am worried about is Lu Xiangsheng and his troops stationed there.
The soldiers and horses near the capital have gathered all the elites from Xuanda, Hebei, and Shanxi. If there is any loss, our Ming Dynasty will be in danger. - < Shuhai Pavilion > - Net."
"Well, your views are the same as mine." Wei Tongnian nodded, and then sighed: "But now that your relationship with the court has become so tense, we can only watch the situation rot and be powerless. I always feel this in my heart.
It’s not a good taste.”
Although Wei Tongnian was Pang Gang's father-in-law, and he should be on Pang Gang's side, after all, he had worked for the Ming Dynasty for so many years. Now that he saw the court's critical situation, he still couldn't help but sigh.
Pang Gang frowned and lowered his head without speaking. He knew that if the inertia of history did not change much, Lu Xiangsheng's current situation would be very dangerous. While he was fighting the Qing army, Gao Qiqian, an indifferent guy, was still in danger.
He was dragging himself back from the side. Without strong foreign aid, Lu Xiangsheng might be in real danger.
But should he do something? Logically speaking, he should sit back and watch the Ming Dynasty's troops being wiped out by the Qing troops, and then take the opportunity to replace them, but Pang Gang found that he couldn't do it. - < Shuhai Pavilion > - Net.
I have no feelings for Pang Gang, the court of the Ming Dynasty, but I can't help but admire Lu Xiangsheng, the national hero Pang Gang in the late Ming Dynasty. Although Lu Xiangsheng was loyal to the Ming Dynasty, as a Chinese son, he had no feelings for this iron-clad man.
But I admire the clanking man very much. Maybe what the Chinese nation lacks is a real man like him.
Seeing that Pang Gang was silent for a long time, Wei Tongnian asked: "Chaodong, do you plan to return to Qingzhou in two days?"
"No!" Pang Gang shook his head: "My son-in-law plans to go to Hebei again to help Governor Lu."
"What?" Wei Tongnian suddenly stood up and said in a voiceless voice: "Are you crazy? I think Gao Qiqian already hates you to the core. If you go to Hebei, wouldn't you be throwing yourself into a trap!"
"Throw yourself into a trap?" Pang Gang smiled, "Father-in-law, you underestimate your son-in-law too much. As long as you have an army in hand, what can you do to me if you rise up and dive?"
"That's not possible." Wei Tongnian still shook his head and said: "The relationship between you and the court is already so tense. What if something goes wrong? I don't want Man Tiao to become a widow at such a young age."
Seeing that Wei Tongnian was so worried about his own safety, Pang Gang felt warm in his heart and said with a smile: "Don't worry, father-in-law. In fact, my son-in-law went to Hebei not all because of Governor Lu. This is what my son-in-law thinks. Now the main force of the Tatars is almost
They all gathered in Hebei. The food and gold and silver treasures they robbed were piled up like mountains. They also robbed no less than 500,000 civilians. If we can seize these things, even half of them, we will
Shandong’s development speed can be greatly accelerated.”
"Then we can't just go like this. Money is ours, so why bother trying so hard to snatch it from the Tatars?" Wei Tongnian still persisted in persuading Pang Gang.
"Father-in-law, don't you hear that wealth and honor can be obtained through danger? The Tatars come and go freely in our Central Plains, robbing whoever they want, and killing whomever they want. Do you really think that we, China, have no one but no one?" At this point,
Pang Gang's eyes showed a cold light, "So, my son-in-law in Hebei is really going to fly away this time."
"Okay!" Seeing that Pang Gang had already decided, Wei Tongnian had no choice but to nod in agreement. He then continued: "Since you have decided to go, I won't stop you. How many troops do you plan to bring with you?
?”
Pang Gang thought about it in his mind and said: "This time we are facing the most elite Tatar army. It is difficult to bring fewer soldiers and horses. This time, my son-in-law went out to bring the soldiers and horses who came back from Liaodong, and then brought them from Jinan."
With an infantry camp and an artillery camp, plus two thousand heavy troops, there will be more than 16,000 people, who can barely compete with the Tatars!"
"That's it!" Wei Tongnian frowned and thought for a while, then asked after hesitating, "Are there still a few soldiers and horses?"
Pang Gang laughed dumbly and said: "Father-in-law, these soldiers and horses are already quite large, and our total possessions are only 30,000 people. If my son-in-law takes away half of them, it is already the limit. Any more will affect the defenses of various places.
"
"That's right!" Wei Tongnian said with some reluctance: "Chaodong, shouldn't it be time for us to recruit troops again?"
"Yes!" Pang Gang smiled, "This is also what my son-in-law wants to ask you to do. After all, Jinan is the capital of Shandong and has a large population. Recruitment is relatively more convenient than in places such as Qingzhou. My son-in-law plans to ask you to recruit soldiers on his behalf.
Twenty thousand, what do you think?"
As the territory controlled by Pang Gang continues to grow, and he gradually moves from behind the scenes to the front, more and more troops are needed. Now Pang Gang only has less than 30,000 troops. If he can barely defend the city,
But if you want to fight people across the border, it seems a bit inadequate, so taking this opportunity, Pang Gang spoke to Wei Tongnian and asked him to help him recruit troops again in Jinan. Anyway, what was Wei Tongnian doing as the governor?
They all grow up smoothly.
"Well, who let me get on your pirate ship!" Wei Tongnian smiled bitterly. His son-in-law was now farther and farther away from the court, but his relationship with him was already a prosperous one and a destructive one, even though he knew that
He will fall out with the imperial court in the future, but he will have to "help the evildoers do evil". How unpredictable things are!
