"Well, Mr. Marquis! I am so ashamed that my child cannot fulfill his filial piety at your knees!" Wu Shigong kowtowed to Wu Weizhong and saluted.
"It doesn't matter! You are also loyal to the emperor!" Wu Weizhong, whose face was glowing, said, "But you have been working hard on the battlefield for many years, and Fei'er has not been with you for a long time, so this time I have chosen a housemate for you.
.”
"Ah!?" Wu Shigong was shocked, "But...but my son already has more than a dozen concubines."
"What have you done with those fireworks girls?" Wu Weizhong frowned and immediately showed his father's majesty, "This time I have chosen for you a woman from an official family, twenty-eight years old, gentle and kind. And she will also be
As my wife, I will pass on the Wu bloodline to you."
Upon hearing this, Wu Shigong, who had just stood up, felt his legs weaken and almost knelt down again. He hurriedly said to Wu Weizhong: "Master Hou! Didn't I bring Xiner to visit you back then? He also brought her and
Ying'er paid homage to the ancestral hall, haven't you forgotten it?"
"Ahem!" Wu Weizhong couldn't help coughing a few times. Of course he didn't forget it, but now he has to forget it, "That means one of your concubines and concubines are paying homage to me! Now I'm choosing a real wife for you.
.Do you want to disobey your parents’ orders? Just prepare to go to the church and get married!”
"ah!?"
…
Wu Shigong's prosperity will inevitably attract a group of speculators. In order to enter the core of the Runing Army, these speculators began to cross the sea and show their magical powers. Among them, the most convenient, most economical, and probably the most effective
The best thing is to get married. Who gave Wu Shigong a "lecherous" reputation in the outside world?
However, the Runing Army is a very introverted group, and Wu Shigong was too quick to move around. So when these speculators wanted to "show off their magical powers," they were surprised to find that it was difficult to find anyone who could talk to Wu Shigong.
relation.
In fact, the real situation is that Wu Shigong... ahem... we should admit that he is indeed a bit lecherous. For example: Chang Qiu, a shopkeeper from a foreign descendant of the Chang family. He gave Wu Shigong a beauty, and when Wu Shigong saw Chang Liuqin
It looked good, so I accepted it. But the key problem now is that those speculators can't find a way to send the beauty away, and they don't have the luck like Chang Qiu.
In addition, Wu Shigong is currently busy with the government and military affairs of the Runing Army, and is no longer interested in collecting beauties, because this kind of thing is no longer difficult for Wu Shigong, and he cannot think of a challenge. Therefore, the child Xue Chenglin
Wu Shigong had no control over the matter. His parents-in-law, Xue Lian and Mrs. Zhang, were there to worry about, but Wu Shigong refused all proposals for marriage to him.
All of a sudden, the difficulty of speculation has been raised to SSS level. Many people have backed down, but there are always some people who do not believe in evil. Some people are even willing to spend a lot of money to open a door.
The Luo family is such a family. They were originally a wealthy gentry family in Huguang. Because several generations successively took the imperial examination and became officials, the entire family has long established a "branch" in the capital. It has also taken root in the capital.
Because they have been in business for nearly a hundred years, the Luo family, a big family, has formed a network of old relationships among its children and disciples, not to mention the old relationship, and the entire family has also accumulated a huge amount of wealth. And there are only two rules for a big family to survive in troubled times, and that is
It was time to bet from multiple sources. Therefore, Wu Shigong's Runing Army also became their betting target.
As for ordinary bettors, they may admit that the Runing Army is a new group, but they are not very optimistic about their true strength. Therefore, when encountering difficulties, these bettors are less willing to spend a lot of money.
But the Luo family is different. They are natives of Huguang, and they know the true strength of the Runing Army better. Therefore, the Luo family will never let Wu Shigong, the betting target, go. For the Luo family, it means spending tens of thousands of taels.
The money and a woman from the clan were used to buy the insurance. But if Wu Shigong was missed, then the entire family...
So the Luo family began to use their network to launch an all-out attack. Unsurprisingly, they contacted Wu Shigong's father, Wu Weizhong. And Wu Weizhong was very... his true character. After a wave of golden bullets, Wu Weizhong immediately agreed to this project.
Marriage. And Wu Weizhong was still secretly rejoicing. This son was born well! He could even "marry" twice. Without Wu Shigong's knowledge, his father Wu Weizhong sold him again.
So now there is a really strange situation. Outsiders tend to know Wu Shigong and his Runing Army better, but his father Wu Weizhong doesn't know much about them, and they always think that Wu Shigong is still the submissive bastard.
So in the end, Wu Shigong and his father, who was dazzled by money, could no longer argue. In addition, his father Wu Weizhong repeatedly labeled him as "unfilial", which finally made Wu Shigong give up his resistance.
.Anyway, it was a woman given to him, and it was not him who suffered the loss, so in the end Wu Shigong ran away after acquiescing.
"Side! You said that the money my old man received should be more generous than the dowry of Miss Luo's family!" Afterwards, Wu Shigong started a family affair with Zhou Junwu.
But these words made Zhou Junwu couldn't help laughing. He smiled and said: "Sir! You must be careful about being alone!"
Wu Shigong was also amused, "Don't keep calling me 'Sir'. When chatting in private, just call me Changjing!"
"Okay! Brother Changjing, in fact, the Luo family has its uses in the officialdom. What our Runing Army lacks now is people who can speak to the court, so you will suffer some losses by marrying Miss Luo's family.
.This can also make up for the shortcomings of our Runing Army, which can be regarded as a good marriage." Zhou Junwu spoke from the perspective of the Runing Army as a whole.
"Okay! You can actually sell me too!" Wu Shigong said half-jokingly, "It seems that my marriage is a good thing. I can marry a regular wife several times. In fact, the Luo family's affairs are also
That's it, it's no problem to let them go with the red-topped whites, but if our Runing army encounters any trouble, it's good that they don't add insult to injury. It means losing a woman!"
"That being said, it's better than not having anyone with a red top and a white one at all." Zhou Junwu said.
"That's true!" Wu Shigong nodded and said, "I don't think about it anymore. The matter has come to this, and there is no point in thinking about it. If the Miss Luo family is more beautiful, then I will just endure it casually!"
"Hahaha——! Has Chang Jing met the Miss Luo family?" Zhou Junwu asked.
"It's really annoying, but there's no such thing!" Wu Shigong looked depressed, "Everyone has been sent to Tongzhou, and they said it will take a few auspicious days before the wedding can be consummated. I really don't know what to do about it?"
"Hahaha——!" After laughing for a while, Zhou Junwu put away his smile and asked Wu Shigong: "Brother Chang Jing! I dare to ask you: What should I do with Mrs. Li and the second young master? The Luo family
Once the lady comes, it will become even more chaotic."
"Grandma!" Wu Shigong had already thought through this issue, "First let me fool around in front of my old man, and then when I return to Runing, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so I can do whatever I want. I won't let Xin'er be sorry.
of."
Zhou Junwu nodded and said: "That's all we have to do, our Runing Army can no longer withstand any hardships!"
"Yes! So, the ancients said: three wives and four concubines. Seven or eight wives and concubines are enough. Any more will make people upset."
"Hahaha--!"
On the second day of March, under the auspices of his father Wu Weizhong, Wu Shigong married Miss Luo Qingjun of the Luo family. The day before, Wu Shigong also brought Chang Liuqin into the house.
On March 19, the Runing army finally waited until the rivers began to freeze, collected all the boats, and began to return to Runing. At the same time, Wu Shigong received two battle reports from Liaodong and Henan.
In Liaodong: On the night of February 18th, Xia Chengde, the deputy general under Hong Chengchou, secretly surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and served as an internal agent. He led the Qing troops to Songshan City. There was chaos in the city. Several commanders fled for their lives, but no one escaped.
, were all captured.
In addition to the Qing army who captured Hong Chengchou and Zu Dalue to Shengjing, the other captured governors were Governor Qiu Minyang, Commander-in-Chief Cao Bianjiao, Wang Tingchen, Soldiers Dao Zhang Dou, Yao Gong, Wang Zhizhen, and Deputy Commander-in-Chief Jiang Zhu, Yao Xun,
Zhu Wende and others, as well as more than 10,000 officers and soldiers who guarded the city, were all executed on the spot. Songshan City was also demolished and razed to the ground by the Qing army.
The fall of Songshan also caused the defenders of Jinzhou to lose their last hope. In addition, the city once again fell into a situation of food shortage and cannibalism. The Ming army guarding Jinzhou no longer had the intention to hold on. On the eighth day of March, Zu Dashou opened
The city surrendered to the Qing Dynasty for the second time, and Jinzhou finally fell into the hands of the Qing army.
Later, on April 9th, the Qing army used red artillery to blast through Tashan, annihilating more than 7,000 defenders in the city. Most of the Ming army in the city surrendered.
On the 21st, after the bombardment of Xingshan, more than 6,800 Ming defenders surrendered. In just over two months, all four cities north of Ningyuan fell into the hands of the Qing army. So far, it took a long time
The Battle of Songjin, which lasted for nearly a year, ended with a disastrous defeat for the Ming Dynasty.
In this battle, Yang Guozhu's family was the most miserable. Except for Yang Guozhu who died in Songshan, his two sons also died in the battle of losing four cities. Yang Guozhu's widow, He, donated her armor, bows, arrows and fifty-three horses to the emperor.
Emperor Chongzhen of the DPRK was deeply impressed. But at this time, no matter how loyal and good generals were, they could not save the overall situation.
Just as Wu Shigong expected the worst outcome. Due to the hesitation of Emperor Chongzhen and the court, the Ming Dynasty not only lost the besieged Ming troops in Jinzhou and Songshan, but also lost a total of 15,000 Ming troops in Tashan and Songshan.
.After the Manchu and Qing Dynasties received the surrender of a total of 25,000 Ming troops in Jinzhou, Tashan and Songshan, they immediately selected their elites to supplement the Han army and the Sanshun King Han army, which made the strength of the Qing army a leap forward.
After this battle, the Ming Dynasty almost lost all its elite border guards in Liaodong, and Shanhaiguan became even more isolated and empty. The Ming Dynasty has completely lost the ability to compete with the Qing army on the front line of Shanhaiguan. How will it defend against the Qing army's invasion of Guanmen in the future?
, has become a problem that has no solution at all. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
