Zuo Liangyu was considered one of the powerful warlords in the late Ming Dynasty. He occupied Wuchang and relied on the natural danger of the Yangtze River to have 200,000 troops. He waited for the time to move. Before Chang Yu made his debut, he had a wishful thinking and let the court and Li Chuang first.
There was a big fight between Zhang Xianzhong and the Qing Dynasty, so that he could reap the benefits. At this time, he had turned a deaf ear to the imperial edicts of the imperial court. He had his own Xiao Jiujiu.
It's just that God's calculations are not as good as those of man. Chang Yaojin came out halfway, and Chang Yu came out of nowhere to cut through the mess with a sharp sword. It only took more than half a year to clean up the north smoothly. Although Li Chuang was not destroyed, Jinzhou was not recovered.
, but those two families were severely suppressed, and for a while they simply did not dare or have the ability to cause trouble.
At this time, Zuo Liangyu secretly screamed, but he still didn't want to listen too much to the court's words, but he couldn't just ignore it like before, he had to show off.
So when Chang Yu was annihilating Bai Wang's tribe, he said, "Go kill Li Chuangju."
Although Zuo Liangyu didn't like this, he had no choice but to go to Li Chuangju's back with a gun. It didn't matter whether he got in or not. His attitude was important.
At that time, Chang Yu just wanted Zuo Liangyu's attitude. Although he also wanted to jump up and give him a shadowless kick, he was really powerless because of the unstoppable spirit when Bai Wang's tribe was just wiped out.
Zuo Liangyu was frightened by his momentum. If he really tried it, he really wouldn't be able to do it.
Zuo Liangyu didn't go in for several months, and Chang Yu didn't say anything. After all, it was all a temporary expedient. Zuo Liangyu pretended to be obedient because he was still waiting for the opportunity and didn't want the court to take advantage of him so early.
As a target, Chang Yu did it because he didn't have the strength to kill him at the moment, and he wanted to deal with Li Zicheng first. Once Xi'an was captured, Zuo Liangyu would immediately wag his tail if he didn't beat him.
But Chongzhen has always been worried about this in his heart. Zhang Xianzhong is hateful, Li Zicheng hates it, but Zuo Liangyu, who supports his troops and respects himself, is even more hateful. He is just depriving the emperor of his salary but does not worry about the emperor, and still plots to become independent at the critical moment.
, it’s not an exaggeration to say that such a person would suffer from skin cramps, and the last person who made Emperor Chongzhen hate him so much was Liu Zeqing, the commander-in-chief of Shandong.
Liu Zeqing resisted the decree at the critical moment, but Emperor Chongzhen felt a burning fire in his heart, but he did not dare to show it. He did not dare to say a harsh word, let alone scold him, and even sent people to give him money to comfort him. You said he was frustrated or not?
Qu.
Then, Liu Zeqing died in battle in Anqing!
Then can Zuo Liangyu die in battle?
Outside the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Chongzhen looked sideways at Chang Yu: "What I want is an obedient Zuo Liangyu."
Be obedient or die. Since you can kill Liu Zeqing, you can kill Zuo Liangyu. No one knows Emperor Chongzhen better than Chang Yu.
"Perhaps I can kill two birds with one stone this time, and even Zuo Liangyu has been taught a lesson!" Chang Yu also looked up at the sky and said lightly. Emperor Chongzhen was overjoyed: "Tell me about it."
"The order was sent to Zuo Liangyu to attack Jingzhou and break the city within one month." Chang Yu took a deep breath and Emperor Chongzhen frowned: "How can he be so obedient..."
"My lord, there is a way to make him obedient and eager to attack Jingzhou." Chang Yu smiled slightly, and just as he was about to continue, Emperor Chongzhen reacted: "Intruder! Tell him that the intruder was captured in the capital!"
Once news came out from the court that Li Zicheng had been captured, and Li Yan launched an attack on the Yellow River, Zuo Liangyu would undoubtedly send troops to attack Jingzhou immediately, and he couldn't wait, and everyone knew the reason why Li Zicheng was captured.
, its power will soon perish. Who will the court attack next? No matter who it attacks, it will have no chance of self-reliance. At this time, it is necessary to quickly show its strength and strive for merit. The harder it is, the sooner it is in Jingzhou's best interest.
, otherwise you might not even be able to drink the soup in the end.
It no longer matters whether Li Zicheng can be caught at this time. As long as he cannot go back within a month or two, Xi'an will be in chaos, and the entire situation will be greatly changed because of his little butterfly wings, and Chang Yu will use this now
Make good use of the time difference.
Dongchang's method of spreading the news was fast and accurate. In just half a day, the capital became a sensation. Li Chuang secretly entered the capital and was discovered by Dongchang fans. They pursued him for several days and captured him hundreds of miles outside the city.
As for where they were captured, some said it was in Baoding City, some said Juyongguan, and some said it was Jinan...
This was definitely explosive news. Everyone was shocked that Li Zicheng was so bold and dared to sneak into the capital during the negotiation period, but they seemed to understand his thoughts. They wanted to find a place to slap the imperial court in the face. After all, the eunuch of Dongchang had penetrated into the tiger's den before.
Everyone knows about it and it is talked about by the people.
Li Zicheng must have wanted to retaliate this time, but he didn't expect that he would fall into the trap.
At this time, people from all walks of life in the capital suddenly realized. No wonder Dongchang mobilized so many yamen to search shops across the city a few days ago. At that time, they thought it was not a trivial matter. It turned out to be to catch intruders. No wonder, no wonder.
The news was so real that it even alarmed the cabinet. Li Banghua and Wu Xuan came together to confront the emperor: "Your Majesty, you really captured that guy."
Emperor Chongzhen couldn't hide the joy on his face, and said vividly: "Exactly, he is currently being held in Dongchang Prison, and Chang Yu is interrogating him personally..." The emperor admitted this in person, which instantly made the old man so excited that he almost lost his temper.
For more than ten years, the Ming Dynasty has consumed countless food and salary and sacrificed many civil servants and generals. It dragged the court into the quagmire and almost destroyed the country. Now this happiness has come suddenly... Li Banghua and Wu Xuan
I was so excited that I lost my composure for a while. After all, once I capture this big thief, everything will be done with half the effort. I even suggested that I don’t want to kill him first. I’d like to keep this guy for good use.
"How can Chang Yu not know that he is about to make a big fuss about this? Just wait and see, this matter is not urgent." Emperor Chongzhen was also very happy on the surface, but in his heart he was filled with emotion. How much would it be if he really captured him?
OK!
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and by that night, the entire capital, both ordinary people and high officials, were talking about Li Zicheng's capture. This was no longer the case when many people were half-doubtful when the news came out, but now it has been confirmed by two big bosses in the cabinet.
Yes, the credibility is satisfactory.
Li Chuang was actually caught. Some people laughed happily, while others raised their eyebrows and smiled bitterly.
The news was so fast and so true that even Song Xiance soon knew about it. When he first heard it, he was expressionless and even deduced a hexagram. When he heard it again, his face was extremely solemn. He left the city before dark and went straight to the military camp to meet Liu Xiyao.
.
Liu Xiyao's military camp has been under control these days, with no food and news. When Song Xiance heard that Li Zicheng had been captured, he collapsed on the ground: "Is this confirmed?"
"How to confirm?" Song Xiance looked at him like a fool.
Yes, how to confirm? Now that he is under surveillance, he cannot contact the agents in the city. Even if he contacts them, how can he confirm? Should he go to the prison in Dongchang?
"There are rumors in the city, and an official confirmed it from the cabinet. At this time, he is being held in Dongchang Prison." Song Xiance sighed: "Even if I go to the Yamen to ask for an audience, I will be rejected by the eunuch. Right now..."
"Then based on what the military advisor has seen, is this true or false?" Liu Xiyao's face was filled with sadness but also a hint of expectation. After all, Song Xiance was also a semi-immortal in the army.
"It is difficult to tell the truth from the false for a while, and the hexagram is unclear. Even if King Chuang is not in the hands of the imperial court, he will still be in danger." Song Xiance sighed three times in one sentence: "And at this time, no matter whether King Chuang is captured or not, he will be in danger.
It is a serious disadvantage to us, and the only remedy is to speed up the progress of negotiations..."
"But before I came, didn't the military advisor tell me that there would be no danger? King Chuang believed you and decided to take the risk. But now you say..." Liu Xiyao became anxious and began to accuse. Song Xiance understood his point.
In his mood, he took a long breath: "The hexagrams are just like the weather, they change at any time. It will be sunny and rainy in unpredictable ways. Don't worry, King Chuang will not worry about his life!"
Hearing what he said, Liu Xiyao breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes suddenly shone: "Since King Chuang is not in danger of his life, it means that he was not caught, otherwise how could the imperial court allow him to live?"
Song Xiance curled up his lips: "Who said that if you are captured by the imperial court, you will definitely die. The imperial court wants to kill King Chuang, but it values the millions of forces behind him more. How can he kill him casually?"
"Master Military Advisor, what do you mean... King Chuang will surrender?" Liu Xiyao was very depressed, and Song Xiance snorted again: "What are we here for? We are here to negotiate peace, in other words, are we here to surrender?
Well, why are you so entangled?"
Liu Xiyao smiled bitterly and scratched his head: "That's right, I just felt that I was caught and surrendered..."
"If you are caught and surrender, the court will naturally keep the price very low, very low..." Song Xiance exhaled: "Hurry up the negotiation progress, ask for the price and negotiate the price to test whether the court has really captured King Chuang."
