In the late Ming Dynasty, there were countless warlords who took advantage of the situation and committed plunder. However, Xu Dingguo was not the most hateful. For him, plundering was commonplace. After the death of Emperor Chongzhen, it became even more serious. Moreover, he was the best at fighting.
He ran away. From the first time in Liaodong to last year in Tongguan, he was the famous Xu Paopao. Last year, he was sentenced to death by the court for robbery and escaping. However, because of the employment situation, he was allowed to plead guilty and meritorious service. As expected, he did not fight.
However, he knew that he would definitely die if he went back, so he took his two sons, Xu Er'an and Xu Erji, back to his hometown to run a business.
After returning home, he and Li Jiyu flirted with each other. Li Jiyu was originally a big thief and later surrendered to the court and was awarded the title of General Soldier of Henan. However, this fellow was also a good man who could adapt to the changing circumstances. When he saw Li Zicheng's unstoppable power at the beginning of the year, he secretly flirted with him and was discovered by the court.
He was not afraid at all, and the court had no time to deal with him anyway, but who would have thought... a young eunuch appeared in the palace... So he couldn't get along with the court anymore and returned to his old profession. Historically, he
He was also surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. (There are several historical records about this person with different records, but the rebel background is the same}.
After Xu Dingguo fled back to his hometown last year, he had been waiting and watching while cultivating his own strength. Seeing that Li Zicheng was so awesome and cajoling him all the way, he was ready to plan an attack on Suizhou, but suddenly he heard the news that the intruders had retreated, and the reputation of the little eunuch was introduced.
In his ears, this forced him to shelve his plan and take a look first.
It was at this time that Hu Maozhen came to tell us that Gao Jie invited him to work together on a great project!
Gao Jie, who was born in the thief army, is not a good person. To a certain extent, he is on par with Xu Dingguo. In addition, he has a lot of troops and is in the important town of Xuzhou, so he has the capital to do big things, so Xu Dingguo believes it is possible.
.
But he was not without some doubts, such as why Gao Jie wanted to cause trouble. He had just chased the intruders and then returned to Gyeonggi to aid. Why did he suddenly have to go it alone after working so hard?
Also, the little eunuch is so awesome right now. Whoever fights will win. Is this the right time to start something?
The reasons given by Hu Maozhen are very good. The reason for going alone in the first place is that the court forced him!
After being transferred thousands of miles away to the capital, King Qin then chased the thieves to the Yellow River, and then was transferred back to the capital to encircle and suppress the Tatars. Even a landlord's donkey cannot be used so recklessly, right? It would be better if he was fed some concentrated feed.
I admit it, but what?
In the celebration ceremony, even Li Yan, who had just surrendered a few months ago, was ranked among the eight pillar countries, but they only received a few words of commendation, but they still had to make him self-sufficient for three years!
Who can bear this?
Xu Dingguo felt that he couldn't bear it, and he had heard about these things.
As for the most suitable time to go it alone, why do you say that?
The imperial court had been fighting continuously for several months and had long since run out of ammunition and food. This time they went south to fight Baiwang as a last resort. In fact, they didn't have enough food and grass at all. They could only walk all the way begging for food. How could they fight at the end of the field like this?
Others are fighting, and there is now a famine in the Gyeonggi area, and the imperial court has transferred all the troops to my side. The imperial court is focusing on one thing but not the other. It is a good time to cause trouble!
When Xu Dingguo heard this, he thought, "My analysis makes sense!"
Hu Maozhen added fuel to the fire, and if he wanted to do something big, he would pull up nearby forces such as Li Jiyu and others. With more people and greater strength, he would create a blockbuster.
The more Xu Dingguo thought about it, the more he realized that this matter was feasible. Anyway, with his current virtue, he would definitely die if he returned to the court. Could it be that he would just become a little thief in the countryside? He might as well fight vigorously. If he failed, he would just escape and come back. So he sent
The man knew about Li Jiyu, but he coincided with Li Jiyu, so he asked him to meet and communicate with Gao Jie first, so the man came with his two sons without any precautions, just like Gao Jie did to him in history.
Then, not surprisingly, Mrs. Xing took it away and was imprisoned in the cell of the General Military Mansion.
Wonderful, Chang Yu couldn't help but sigh at Mrs. Xing's methods and asked: "How long have you been imprisoned for?"
"It's been more than half a month, and his men have come looking for me. I'm going to catch a bunch of sisters-in-law." Mrs.
Chang Yu originally planned to take advantage of Xu Dingguo during his break after quelling Bai Wang and before attacking Xi'an, but he didn't expect that this guy would be easily deceived by Mrs.
There was a lot of chaos in Nanming, with fierce fighting between warlords. For example, Gao Jie tried to kill Huang Degong several times and almost succeeded once, but Huang Degong was too brave and even broke out of the encirclement. But Gao Jie wanted to kill Huang Degong in order to fight for it.
Territory, everyone is not convinced.
Li Dingguo killed Gao Jie because he wanted to surrender to the Qing Dynasty!
This is enough for Chang Yu to kill him millions of times to vent his hatred.
The lights in the cell were dim, and the smell of feces and urine was very strong in the air. Chang Yu got in and ran out three or four times and still couldn't get used to the smell inside. As a last resort, Gao Jie had Xu Dingguo and the others tied up and brought to the lobby.
Xu Dingguo is nearly 70 years old. Although he was detained for more than half a month, he is still in high spirits. It is said that he is tall and strong and can lift a bell worth a thousand gold. He has the reputation of "Xu Qianjin", which seems to be true.
Xu Dingguo, who was brought into the lobby, cursed Gao Jie endlessly, calling him a villain and shameless. Gao Jie felt guilty after being scolded. After all, Xu Dingguo didn't do anything to him now.
Chang Yu watched him scolding expressionlessly, until he gasped from exhaustion and then said calmly: "One general soldier and two guards (Xu Dingguo's two sons are both guards) can be regarded as a goalkeeper, but... Hey, the Ming Dynasty has this kind of thing
It is truly a disgrace to the country to be a general!"
"Who are you, kid?" As soon as Xu Dingguo finished his sentence, Kuang Ren, who was standing next to him, rushed over and slapped him three times on the head. Xu Dingguo's eyes were shining with gold and the corners of his mouth were bleeding. His son shouted loudly.
"I'll let you know this clearly, my governor, Dongchang Changyu!"
Ah! Xu Dingguo and the other three were immediately stunned, and the look of horror on their faces became even more intense. Then they turned into ashes of death.
He understands.
Last year, he was convicted of several crimes and sentenced to death for plundering and escaping without fighting. Later, due to the emergency of the war, the court had no one available and had to ask him to plead guilty and perform meritorious service. Unexpectedly, he escaped again, but he also knew that if he returned, he would definitely die. At first glance,
He was worried that he would be taken away by the Jin Yiwei someday, but later found that the situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable to the court. At this time, the court had no time or intention to pursue him as a fugitive general, so it slowly let down its guard.
Unexpectedly, he was targeted by Dongchang. In order to catch him, Dongchang teamed up with Gao Jie to perform such a play, just to catch him. (Xu Dingguo thought to himself)
At this point, he knew that he was going to die. The irony was that he had really wanted to see what the legendary god-like eunuch of Dongchang looked like, but he didn't expect to see him here, and he was also going to die.
But for such a villain, Chang Yu couldn't let him die so happily, so he said to Kuang Ren: "Find a brother with good skills to send him on his way." After saying that, he looked at Xu Dingguo's two sons and sighed slightly in his heart. Boss Xu
If you see this novel, please don’t send me a lawyer’s letter!
That’s right, Xu Jiayin, chairman of Evergrande Group, is a descendant of Xu Dingguo!
Boss Xu, I'm sorry. In the novel, Xu Dingguo has reached the end of his career.
That night, somewhere in Yunlong Mountain outside Xuzhou City, Xu Dingguo, his father and his son, together with their subordinates Shan Changgeng and Pan Yifeng, were buried alive here.
Early the next morning, Chang Yu went to his father-in-law Zhang Laishui's house to visit his daughter-in-law Zhang Biyun, who had never been married. He chatted casually for a while and left without even saying goodbye. He said that military affairs were urgent and he had to return to Beijing to report on his duties. If
If Zhang Biyun is bored in Xuzhou, he can go to the capital to look for him. All he has to do is say hello to Gao Jie, and he will send someone to escort him to the capital.
Zhang Biyun reluctantly watched Chang Yu leave with tears in her eyes. She thought that Chang Yu would greet her when he returned home in triumph. Unexpectedly, he came and left in a hurry. They only saw each other for more than an hour before they parted again. This pair of girls who were passionately in love suddenly
I really miss you so much.
However, she can also understand the difficulties of soldiers. In these troubled times, as a general, he should put the country first. Even his parents advised him so. Some people may be curious and ask, Chang Yu's name is known to both the government and the public, why does the Zhang family not know about it?
It's still a matter of prioritization.
When Chang Yu flirted with people before, he said it was after Huaiyuan Hou of Nanjing, which was after Chang Yuchun. It is normal for generals to have the same name and surname. He would not think about it at all. Besides, there is no great eunuch of Dongchang.
Befriending the warlord.
At the canal pier, Gao Jie and his wife saw off Chang Yu, and their conversation was very relaxed.
"The credit for killing Xu Dingguo will be credited to my brother. If I can deal with Li Jiyu again, it will be a great achievement. In the future, brother, I will be able to ask for credit from my brother in the court!" Chang Yu punched Gao Jie: "Fight the war.
You have to use your brain. Although Li Jiyu is a member of the mob, he is very powerful in the local area. Don't beat him hard..."
In Xingzi County, they were discussing the deployment of defense. Chang Yu arranged for everyone else to be on guard against Zuo Liangyu and Li Zicheng on the other side of the Yellow River. Only Gao Jie, the class teacher, returned to his hometown. In the eyes of others, he may be taking care of his sworn brother, but in fact, this is not the case.
He just wanted to let Gao Jie defeat the mobs to clear the dungeon before attacking Xi'an, and also wanted to get rid of Li Jiyu before he could regain his former momentum.
"Bai Wang has been beaten to the ground by me, and he still cares about Li Jiyu." Gao Jie hummed: "I will deal with him when my troops come back." Chang Yu hummed, Gao Jie has rich combat experience, there is nothing to worry about: "
But if you can be smart about it, it will save you a lot of trouble."
"How to outwit him? Could it be that we also trick him?" Gao Jie raised his eyebrows: "There was no news after Xu Dingguo left. How could Li Jiyu fall for the trap if he is not a fool?"
"That's natural." Chang Yu smiled slightly: "But what if you tell him that the governor will surrender him?" Then he glanced at Mrs.
”.
Mrs.
"Okay." Chang Yu had another conversation with Gao Jie and his wife, then boarded the ship and sailed away.
After sailing for more than ten miles, Chang Yu changed his plan and left the lotus heart. Shi Kefa, Chen Wangting and other wounded people took the boat and took the waterway. He led his guards ashore and rode back to Beijing, because the waterway was too slow, and he also had to inspect the people's sentiments along the way.
, look at the lives of the people and the harvest of crops, although he has already sent a large number of Jin Yiwei to the hardest-hit areas such as Shandong and Hebei. The purpose is to secretly investigate whether local officials are inactive and whether they are adding fuel to the fire and squeezing the people.
