Zhang Xianzhong waved his hand: "Li Zicheng looks wily and cunning, but in fact he is too eager for quick success. Let's not mention him for now. He is not the one who can defeat him."
Li Dingguo also heard about the heroic deeds of the three major battalions. He looked curious: "The three major battalions have ordinary combat capabilities. Judging from the reports sent back, Zhu Youjian spent a lot of money and effort on the three major battalions.
Even when I committed rebellion with King Ji, I can make up for it by doing meritorious deeds."
Zhang Xianzhong's eyes were complicated: "He wants to turn the three major battalions into a monolithic unit and train them into his own army. Now that most of the troops are not in the hands of the emperor, he wants to mobilize troops because the emperor is far away and no one may care about him. This approach is
The circumstances are excusable, and besides being able to keep people who have made trouble in the past and continue to use them, this Zhu Youjian is more courageous than I thought."
Li Dingguo brought the topic back to the present: "Is the matter that my father is worried about related to the three camps? Or are you worried about the next actions of the Manchus?"
Zhang Jianzhong looked far away, meditating quietly, and finally answered Li Dingguo's words for a long time: "It's both. The increase in strength of the three major battalions is definitely not good news for us, but now I am more worried about Manchuria."
People who suffer losses in Beijing will temporarily avoid the spotlight and come south to cause trouble."
Li Dingguo also followed his father to consider the possibility of the Manchus going south: "Father, if the Manchus and Muslims go south, what about us?"
Zhang Xianzhong glanced at him lightly: "Do you think I will be afraid and cower in Chengdu?"
"No." Li Dingguo shook his head. "On the contrary, I know that my father will definitely send troops north. How we fight with the emperor is always our own business. But if the Manchus want to interfere, my father will definitely not want to see it."
Hearing this, Zhang Xianzhong finally had a smile on his face: "Ning Yuan, who knows me, I do have plans to send troops to go north. However, if we really go north, we will most likely face enemies from both sides, and the situation will be worse than now.
Much more dangerous."
He took a deep look at his proudest son: "You promise me, no matter what happens to me, you will guard the south and don't let the iron hoofs of the Manchu Qing trample our great rivers and mountains."
Li Dingguo wanted to say that he shouldn't say such unlucky words before the war started, but when he saw the solemn look on his father's face, he swallowed his words again, and instead nodded solemnly and promised: "Don't worry, my son will definitely do it."
If I live up to my mission, I will never let the Manchus succeed even if I risk my life."
Zhang Xianzhong seemed to feel a lot more relaxed now that he had this guarantee. He patted Li Dingguo's hand hard and said, "Good boy, I knew I wasn't wrong about you at the beginning."
Li Dingguo reluctantly smiled along. He didn't know why, but hearing Zhang Xianzhong's obviously relieved tone made him feel as if there was an extra stone in his heart.
Zhang Xianzhong patted his head: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. I was originally asking Jinzhong to take out the things he bought for you brothers, but he forgot about it after being interrupted like this.
I have to ask him to run again tomorrow."
Li Dingguo nodded: "The things my father prepared are certainly not bad. It doesn't make any difference whether he is earlier or later. However, I think something is not right about General Liu today. Did something happen?"
Zhang Xianzhong seemed to have been mentioned something unpleasant. He interrupted Li Dingguo: "What can be the matter? Some minor differences on the battlefield are normal. Jinzhong has been with me for so many years and I know him well. I guess it's the recent one."
He was worried and tired after following me for a while, so I just asked him to go to Jinshanpu to relax."
Li Dingguo couldn't help but laugh out loud: "It's the time when the banditry in Jinshanpu is getting serious. It's the only time you send people to work and still say it's to give them a rest. Maybe Uncle Liu is unhappy because of this."
Woolen cloth."
Zhang Xianzhong rarely showed a flash of sly expression: "Whether he is going to suppress bandits or drinking, it is always good to change his mood."
Li Dingguo nodded and approved of his adoptive father's approach. Liu Jinzhong's condition didn't look very good. He didn't know what would happen if he went to the battlefield!
It looked like it was still early. When the father and son were about to walk to the room, the other three people also heard the noise and came out. Zhang Jianzhong felt very happy when he saw his four sons surrounding him: "It's still early, why don't you accompany me as a father?"
Let’s go for a walk in the back mountains, now is the time to catch some wild game and get some meat on it.”
Sun Kewang was honest and peaceful. He always listened to what his father said. It was rare for his father to be in such a good mood, so naturally he would not say anything.
Of course the third and fourth children were very happy to hear that they were going to go hunting in the mountains, but as soon as they rolled their eyes, they didn't know what they were thinking of. They complained to the side: "Father, of course it's good to go out, but this time you have to tell me in advance."
Okay, just give my second brother a few less arrows."
"That's right, otherwise the second brother would have to take over a mountain by himself every time, and the three of us could only grab one rabbit. How pitiful the eldest brother would be." The fourth child agreed.
Zhang Xianzhong looked at these two live treasures helplessly: "Okay, okay, okay, just give him as many as you want."
"I said up to six, no more."
Before Li Dingguo said anything, Sun Kewang had already spoken for him: "If you two don't practice your riding and archery, you know how to bully your second brother for being easy to talk to, and you have to take my share of whatever you do!"
The third and fourth children ran away laughing and joking, while the boss chased them and continued to teach them respectfully. Li Dingguo shook his head helplessly, looked at Zhang Xianzhong, and the two of them chased after them leisurely.
Ever since Jierhalang accidentally "cleared" the suspicion of poisoning Dodo, Dorgon has become closer to Dodo than before.
Perhaps it was Duduo's little trick of secretly trying to get him to eat more that impressed Dorgon, or maybe it was the growing suspicion of Jierhalang that made him unconsciously get closer to his brother.
As the leader of the Blue Flag and a good friend of the leader of the Eight Banners, Jierhalang's influence has always been very wide. Although he did not obviously stand in line when making the choice, this person has always been afraid of anyone.
He provoked the emperor casually, until he became the regent and his real power was gradually taken away by Dorgon.
Dorgon's fear of Jierhalang actually started when he refused to express his position clearly, because he did not get the explicit support of the two blue flags, although in the end it was Da Yu'er who came forward and he agreed to establish Huang Tai Chi Ninth
Zi Fulin became emperor, but this could not offset his resentment towards Jierhalang.
It is true that Duduo has not found a chance to continue to interfere recently. Although Duoergen said with a smile that it was a misunderstanding, we are all one family.
