The Sun and Moon Banner, the Golden Dragon Banner, the Tuanlong Banner, the Sanchen Banner, and the Twelve Yu Taichang Banners appeared one after another at the foot of Jiangning City. These all symbolize the Ming Dynasty and the arrival of the Emperor of Tomorrow.
At this time, Zhu Yihai was still the king of Lu, overseeing the country and regent. However, in just six months, in everyone's hearts, he was the son of the Ming Dynasty and the master of the Ming Dynasty. There was no doubt about it.
After the fall of the two capitals, various places established themselves as supervising states one after another. The emperor's royal family basically read the edict of the Lu supervising state and abdicated to the vassal state to express their congratulations.
A glorious day.
Flags cover the sky.
The Qing troops and Minzhuang who were defending the city were stunned when they saw these familiar flags, clothes and armor, and some even shed tears quietly.
Lord Yan was also standing at the top of the city.
"Bring me the harp, I'm going to play a song on the harp!"
"Is Jing Lue going to imitate Zhuge Kongming and stage an empty city plan?" Lin Tianqing, the prefect of Jiangning, asked worriedly.
Lord Yan ignored this person.
After fetching the harp, Mr. Yan sat down and began to play the harp in front of the Ming army that was approaching from outside the city. Standing next to him were the prefect of Jiangning, the soldiers on the road, the guards on the road, and other officials, who all looked at each other in astonishment.
At this time, Ma Guozhu, the governor of the three provinces, the acting admiral Cao Jiang and the governor of Jiangning, the acting governor of Anhui Liu Yingbin, and Suzhou Meile Zhangjing Kangkara, etc., had all taken their servants and cavalry out of the city to move reinforcements. In the city, Yan Wogong, the manager of the five provinces,
No one is holding back anymore.
Two burners of incense were burning.
Mr. Yan plays the piano alone.
Yan Wogong was a member of the Ming Dynasty. Although he was never a Jinshi, he was still a famous local scholar after all. He was not a poor scholar from a poor family who only studied hard and studied eight-legged essay. He was good at playing, playing, playing, playing, playing, playing, calligraphy, and painting. He was also elegant and handsome, and his conversational skills were extraordinary.
Therefore, during the meetings and discussions with Bo Luo, Zhang Cunren, Duo Duo, Dorgon and others, I did not get a good impression.
It's just that at this time, he was playing the piano, but few people were interested in listening.
Everyone looked at the soldiers and horses walking outside the city and felt trembling. The sound of the piano even sounded a bit sad.
Some of the Northern Qing soldiers in the city even seemed to hear the sounds of their hometown, as if the mountain flowers in their hometown were blooming, and their wives and children were telling their longing for him in the wind.
Listening and listening, many people shed tears.
The prefect Lin Tianqing felt that the morale of the defenders would be lost if the bombing continued.
I quickly suggested, "Should we take advantage of the new arrival of Ming Dynasty thieves and send troops out of the city to make a surprise attack to defeat them? I heard that when Qizhou was besieged, it was the governor who sent soldiers Xu Yong and Zu Yonglie to attack and defeated hundreds of thousands of enemies in one battle.
, and then solve the crisis in Huguang."
Yan Wo Gong finished playing the song.
He stroked his beard and nodded.
"Then please ask Magistrate Lin to lead three thousand township regiments out of the city for a surprise attack."
Lin Tianqing was stunned.
He was just a prefect. He was also a minister of the Ming Dynasty and a close confidant of Hong Chengchou. He was later recommended by Hong Chengchou and kept him with him. However, when he went to Huguang, he did not take him with him. Instead, he arranged for him to be the prefect of Jiangning, which was considered right.
An explanation from this confidant who has been following him.
The prefect of Jiangning was an important position, and Jiangning was far safer than Wuchang at that time.
Lin Tianqing's abilities are good, but he first started out as a staff member. He is good at making plans and even official documents. He can even deal with money, food and logistics. But it would be really difficult for him to lead troops to fight or even charge into battle.
"Jinglue, the lower official is not good at military affairs."
Yan Wogong turned to stare at Lin Tianqing, "Now is the time of war, and even more so, the time of siege. Now the city is full of young and strong warriors. Officials must lead by example. The generals are already wearing armor. Do we still need Linfutai?"
Shit and shrink?"
"I will give you three thousand local warriors. You can lead the attack. If you have a chance, you will be credited with defeating the enemy. If you don't have a chance, you will return. You can also test the enemy's strength and strength, and you will be credited with one merit."
"Go quickly."
"This is a military order!"
Lin Tianqing was trembling all over, scared and angry. He knew that Yan Wogong was trying to punish him because he was a close confidant left by Hong Chengchou.
But now Ma Guozhu and others are gone, Chen Jin and others are dead again, and there is no one left who can help.
He had seen how Yan Wogong beheaded Zhang Cunren and the others, he had also seen how many green camp generals he had driven to death during this period, and how many corrupt officials he had executed. He knew that Yan Wogong was very ruthless.
At the moment, I felt tragic in my heart, but I could only secretly regret that I shouldn't have said so much, so I had to grit my teeth and obey the order.
After everyone else left, only a few confidants were left.
The model leader of the economic strategy, the left battalion commander Chen Dezhi, the right battalion commander Lei Hubiao and the front battalion commander Yang Zilong stood behind Yan Wogong, looking at Lin Tianqing's tragic figure, they all just smiled with disdain.
These three were veterans of the Yongwei Battalion. They were later arranged by Zhu Yihai to accept the surrender of Duke Yan. They were the first batch to be surrendered. They also surrendered as general soldiers at that time. Compared with those Hou Bo, the generals with seals were not counted.
He was outstanding, so he was later appointed by Yan Wo public as the deputy general of the recruitment bidding battalion and named the general soldier.
After he was appointed as the general manager, he was also appointed as the chief military officer of Jingbiao.
"My lord, you can kill someone with a borrowed knife. This Lin Tianqing is really looking for death." Chen Dezhi said with a smile.
However, Mr. Yan continued to play the piano.
This Lin Tianqing is actually very capable, and he can be said to be very competent as the prefect of Jiangning. It is a pity that this man is loyal to the Qing Dynasty.
So after killing and sending away, Lin Tianqing became a thorn in Yan Wogong's side.
The sound of the piano stopped suddenly.
One string breaks.
Yan Wogong was waiting for the secret envoy or secret message from the Supervisor State, but he never got there. He still doesn't know what the Supervisory State's next plan will be. Whether he wants to take advantage of the victory and directly recapture Jiangning City in one fell swoop, or he has other plans.
"In the name of strengthening defense, I plan to expand the current eight thousand soldiers in the city to nine thousand, and divide them into three battalions after mixing. The three of you will lead each of them, each with three thousand."
"Do you understand what I mean?"
"Understood, while Ma Guozhu, Tu Guobao, etc. are not around, we swallowed up these two supervisory standards and Fubiao."
The city tower was surrounded by Jingbiao servants, and there were no outsiders here.
"Well, we still don't know what the supervisor's plan is, but we can't be idle. We take this opportunity to bring all the soldiers in the city under our command and disperse them. If there is any officer who is disobedient, tell me. I
Transfer them to lead the brave men of the rural regiments, promote them to official ranks, promote them one by one, and take away their military power."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "If there are any particularly unruly people, I will send them out to fight in the city just like I did with Lin Tianqing, and then tell the supervisor the plan and let them deal with it for us."
"As well as those wealthy families in the city, remember to hurry up and urge them to donate money and borrow money."
"These people are not willing to make friends," Chen Dezhi said.
Yan Woggong smiled, "Don't I know that this demand for donations and forced borrowing is a bit excessive, but what is our status now and what status are they? So there is no need to be polite, just like we did with the Green Camp before, we have to be tough when we need to be tough
, they will rebel, who is afraid of whom? I wish they would all rebel!"
The dignified Qing Dynasty's manager of the five provinces south of the Yangtze River was actually the number one secret agent under Lu Jianguo's command, forcing the enemy to rebel. This was of course a good thing.
"We still have a lot of money in our hands. You can distribute the shortfalls to our brothers in the Imperial Camp in the name of rewards according to the standards of our imperial camp in the Ming Dynasty. Your priority is now. Don't worry about other things. Give me something to think about.
Find a way to turn these nine thousand soldiers into brothers that we can trust."
"If you are unreliable, just put away your armor and weapons and kick them out, and then bring in more people from the brave and strong people of the country."
"When necessary, they can be relied on and can be pulled out to fight at any time. They can even raise the flag with us anyway. Do you understand?"
The three generals of the Biao Battalion nodded together. They have been secretly developing their own team of confidants. Starting from their own servants, they developed little by little. Now there are 3,000 Biao soldiers. Although they are not all their own, it can be said that at least the officers are basically the same.
They are all their people.
"Send a team of people out of the city to follow Lin Tianqing and find a way to send a secret letter to the supervising country, telling them that Lin Tianqing is just a civil servant, and the three thousand under his command are all rural soldiers. They can all be kept." Yan Igong looked outside the city and said,
"If they capture Lin Tianqing and these three thousand people, they will be able to intimidate Jiangning City even more."
