Anti-Qing: I'm actually an honest person

Chapter 201 Zhang Yong Has More Solutions Than Difficulties

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhang Yong also deliberately found a beautiful kiln sister for Wei Xiaobao to accompany the wine, and the meal was a feast for the guests and host.

Until Wei Xiaobao really drank a little too much and fell asleep on the bed, the eight sleepy eyes of the four Hexi generals recovered in an instant.

"Brother, we have understood the meaning of what we said today, but why does Wei Xiaobao not pick up the words at all? It seems that this Liu Dapao will definitely not give us the title of king."

"Hey~, it's expected."

"Brother, Wu Zhimao sent someone to look for me a few days ago, saying that Wu Sangui promised that as long as we can fight back, after defeating Yue Le, the entire Northwest will belong to us. It's no problem to establish a king and build a country."

Zhang Yong smiled wryly and shook his head when he heard the words: "What's the use of Wu Sangui's promise? Even Wang Pingfan, isn't he rushing to marry his girl to Liu Dapao? You can handle it, don't offend people too much." , When we get rid of Wang Fuchen, how can he make promises in the Northwest?"

"In the final analysis, our soldiers are elite and brave, and the four brothers are twisted into one rope. The strength of our troops is certainly enough to control the situation in the world, but our foundation is in Gansu and Ningxia. Although the soldiers and horses are strong, the money and food are not enough. It’s a poor place! I think I’m not weaker than others to fight for the length of time, but it’s extremely difficult to fight for the success or failure of the whole life. A master, but in the final analysis, our purpose of looking for a master is only to eat food and pay."

"In this regard, Wu Sangui is the same as us. I heard that the price of grain in Sichuan has quadrupled compared to two years ago. I don't know much about Yunnan and Guizhou, but I think it's not much better. Follow Wu Sangui. Damn, I'm afraid I'll starve for nine meals in three days."

Zhao Liangdong couldn't help sighing when he heard the words: "In this way, don't we have to accept the princes of the Qing court? Prince An has been urging us almost every day these days, let us join forces with him to win together. In Pingliang, it seems that Wu Zhimao and Wang Pingfan are not able to do anything now, after such a long time, they still haven't been able to join forces with Wang Fuchen."

"This Wang Fuchen, after all, voted for Liu Dapao in name. Besides, after Pingliang is settled, Yue Le will definitely let us accompany him to the south of Sichuan and Shu, and then go straight to Wu Sangui's heartland in Yunnan and Guizhou. Wouldn't it be a way to go like this? Desperate?"

"I heard that the relationship between Liu Dapao and Wu Sangui is not good. Now that the Qing court's offensive in the south has stagnated, maybe the two will turn against each other right away?"

"You are talking nonsense. Whether Liu Dapao and Wu Sangui have turned against each other or not has nothing to do with us. There is not only a question of winners and losers, and heroes competing for success, it also involves national justice. At this juncture, we are still clinging to the Qing court." thighs, a traitor’s hat can’t be taken off no matter what, if it’s true, he can only go to the dark.”

"Don't we still have Brother Wei? He is one person under Nanming and above ten thousand people. If the Qing court loses in the end, based on our arrangement today, can't we let him intercede with us?"

"Brother Wei? Do you still think that he is a little rascal who invites you to be favored? He can be a first-rank in the Qing court, and a genuine first-rank in the Ming court. In the Qing court, Kangxi regarded him as a confidant. Ting changed his body and became Liu Dapao's senior brother again, the person Liu Dapao trusted most, and I heard that he was still Emperor Ming's closed disciple. Could this be pure luck? Looking through the history books, how many people can have our sworn brother? The ability? In the entire Qing court, he has sworn many brothers, even Jieshu and Suo Etu are his sworn brothers, what kind of love can he tell us?"

Seeing this, Zhang Yong simply said: "Brothers, since the incident started, the four of us actually took advantage of today's opportunity to meet Brother Wei. If the current situation is like this, the four of us twisted together and said what we said It can still ring, no one can not give us face, but if we go our own way, we will be slaves wherever we go.”

"So today, I invite Wei Xiaobao to come over to listen to the conditions of Nanming, and I want to ask you what you mean, are we determined to be the traitor prince of the Qing court, or is it Just join forces with Wang Fuchen and Wang Pingfan, turn against his mother, capture Yue Le alive, occupy Shaanxi, or go east to the capital, or go south to Jingxiang, don't hesitate anymore, if you hesitate, neither side will be pleased."

Sun Sike said: "Whoever you vote for, you have to be strong. If we are really only satisfied with the small border lands in Ningxia, Gansu, we will naturally have to worry about the Qing court killing the donkey. In my opinion, it doesn't matter whether it is the Qing court or the Ming court. Let's beat them, let's beat ours, no matter what, beat Wang Fuchen first, if possible, there is nothing wrong with taking Sichuan and Shu. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei made more than a dozen Northern Expeditions, not just for this Longyou and Is it the land in Guanzhong? Now that this big fat meat is sent to our mouths, God will not take it, but we will be blamed. After eating it, we will talk about it. At that time, whether Yue Le wants to go south to Yunnan, Guizhou, or east to Jingxiang, whether he will follow or not If he leaves, don't we still have the final say?"

Hearing this, Zhao Liangdong couldn't help but said: "But if the king of the Northwest did it, he would be a big traitor. We were all generals of the Ming court. When we surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, we can barely say that the current situation is like this. We can't help ourselves. Everyone in the world They all shaved their heads, and no one will stick to this matter, but if you are a traitor again, no matter how people in the world scold Wu Sangui, they will definitely scold us. I mean, even if you want to be the king of the Northwest, you must first Make an agreement with Liu Dapao, at least through some agreement secretly reached between Brother Wei and Liu Dapao, when the current situation in the world is clear, we will choose the master."

Wang Jinbao also said: "I don't care if the vassal king is not the vassal king. Although the Ming court did not give us the title of king, everyone in the world knows that Liu Dapao himself did not become the king. The entire Ming court, let alone a different surname Wang, the surname Zhu and the surname Liu, aren’t there any kings? If Brother Wei dared to boast that Haikou would give us a prince, I would not dare to promise him, I’m afraid he would treat us as fools I'm fooling around."

"Although the Qing court promised to crown us kings, how many princes have the Qing court distributed? Manchu, Han, and Mongolian, plus one piece, maybe there will be thirty or forty? What's so rare? It's just a good name. With the name of a traitor, is it really honoring the ancestors? When Brother Wei wakes up tomorrow, we might as well ask Liu Dapao how much stock he plans to give us. That thing Isn't it more beneficial than the prince?"

Zhang Yong said: "What do you two mean, you still want to vote for Ming?"

"This……"

Zhao Liangdong and Wang Jinbao hesitated again when they heard the words, and said with wry smiles: "It's too far away, if we raise the flag to rebel, it's not a big problem to temporarily separate the Guanzhong, but how can the Ming court's guns, armaments, money and food support be delivered? ? Transshipment from the southwest through Wu Sangui? At that time, the thorn in the eyes of the Qing court will not be his Wang Fuchen, but us."

"Yeah, let's not talk too much. Yue Le is a veteran of the Qing court and the most capable prince in Aixinjueluo in the Qing Dynasty. Can he be captured alive if he says it is alive? Say something to arouse his ambition." If he drags in reinforcements and is captured alive, he may not know who it is, Liu Dapao is far away in the southeast, and there is no way to count on him."

"It's more than that. Wang Fuchen is capricious. He is a complete villain. His rebellion against the Qing Dynasty was not out of sincerity. His son is still a hostage in Kangxi's hands until now. He has never killed him. The virtue of fighting the war is now. Maybe he has regretted it a long time ago. If we rebel at this time, don't we just give him a chance to make amends? Maybe stab us in the back. It's not like he can't do this. How can this old man have any character? .”

Zhang Yong heard the words and said: "I understand. To put it bluntly, you don't want to be a traitor and follow the Man Qing to the dark, nor do you want to raise troops to rebel and become a thorn in the flesh of the Man Qing. If you can, you still want to be a bargain. I still want to take down the Northwest and become the King of the Northwest, right?"

"It's natural, but, how can there be such a good thing in this world?"

"Actually... maybe not. I have a plan. I can stay in the Qing court and focus on the Ming Dynasty, and let the Qing court and the Ming court not find fault with us. They even have to accept our favor, and even the hat of a traitor. It can also be removed."

"The plan will come out?"

"Turn the gun around, head west, and hit Galdan!"

"........."

"........."

"........."

"........."

"Why, do you think this strategy is bad?"

"To provoke Galdan for no reason..."

"Of course it can't be for no reason. We must first find a way to let Galdan's Mongolian cavalry come in from Yumen Gate. It is best to burn, kill and loot them, and do more things that anger people."

"So, let's go back and beat him again to protect the country and the people. Who can say that we are traitors? Now Liu Dapao is allied with Chahar Mongolia and Khalkha Mongolia, especially Khalkha Mongolia. Galdan wants to annex the entire Khalkha Mongolia is not a matter of a day or two. We hold Galdan here, not only to reduce the pressure on Wang Fuchen and Wang Pingfan in disguise, but also to secretly form alliances with Chechen Khan, Tushetuhan and others How could Liu Dapao not like it? I heard that Wei Xiaobao was in charge of the Mongolian alliance, so let’s ask him to provide us with some support from Mongolia. He can’t refuse, can he?”

"As for the Qing court, to be honest, at this point, everyone knows that the Qing court will form an alliance with the Junggar Khanate sooner or later. It was wiped out by Galdan, if this Galdan comes to harass the herdsmen in Gansu Province again, and I beat him, who can say what I did is wrong, and who dares to say that what I did is wrong, this is called righteousness."

"I committed myself to the Qing court to fight Galdan. From the perspective of the Qing court, I did it to protect the environment and the people, and to protect the Heshuo special nobles who had been allied with the Manchus for generations. Our Han people are not invaded by Erut Mongolian wolves, this is called national righteousness."

"And in this process, we can actually recruit those remnants of Heshuote, win over Tibetans, do business with Muslims, communicate with the Khalkha Mongolian tribes secretly, and accept Liu Dapao's assistance. If we have the opportunity to strengthen ourselves, won’t we be able to take Shaanxi if we don’t take it? Besides, when Yue Le and Wang Fuchen decide the outcome, we may not have the opportunity to take Shaanxi.”

Wang Jinbao couldn't help but wondered: "Two questions, first, Galdan is not an idler, he is brave, and now he has completely unified Erut Mongolia. If it weren't for Liu Dapao's support, I'm afraid that the Khalkha Mongolia The three major divisions will be in his pocket, and he has three points of the power of Genghis Khan back then. Can we beat him? If we lose all the soldiers and horses in our hands, what kind of king of the Northwest will we be?"

"Secondly, Galdan is not stupid. Since he wants to become Genghis Khan, he must take advantage of the great chaos in the Central Plains to unify Mongolia. Since Liu Dapao has supported Khalkha Mongolia, he must be his enemy. Feiyou, the only thing he can find is the Qing court, even if there is no alliance letter, he will secretly cooperate with the Qing court, so how can he send troops to our Gansu border to burn, kill and loot?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yong laughed loudly and said: "Galdan will not send troops to invade the bandits, so can't we think of a way to provoke him? If it's not possible, can't we send confidantes to pretend to be Mongolians, Tibetans, and Huiren?" ? Everyone has yellow skin and black hair, with a little makeup, who can tell the difference?"

"You mean, let's slaughter the people in the territory ourselves, and then put the blame on Galdan?"

"Yes, Junggar just swallowed Heshuot, when the interior was the most unstable, not to mention that the Mongols' chiefs have great autonomy, and there are many messy tribes. In addition to the Mongols, there are Tibetans, Huis, and Kazakhs under his command. People, occasionally someone comes to Gansu to hunt Caogu, I guess Galdan himself can't tell whether it is his subordinate, the yellow mud falling into his crotch is either shit or shit."

"As for the lack of troops, that is of course, but as long as he wants to conquer Khalkha Mongols, he must secretly unite with the Manchus. At least, he dare not offend the Manchus too much. We are the princes of the Manchus Ah, it’s not about attacking his royal court. Could he really attack Gansu on a large scale? It’s just an ordinary border conflict. It’s nothing more than the death of a few Han people in the border area and some herdsmen. This kind of thing can’t be called nothing Two liang weight, on the scale, even a thousand catties can't hold it down."

"The current position of the Qing court and Junggar is absolutely unacceptable. Galdan, how can we go to war with us?"

"In the final analysis, whether this matter is put on the scale or not, isn't that what our brothers have the final say on? If the Qing wins and the Ming loses on the battlefield along the Yangtze River, this matter will naturally not need to be weighed. Anyway, we are already the Qing court. The prince is gone, can he take back the throne and cut down the vassal again?"

"If in the end Ming wins and Qing loses, then this matter will naturally be written in a big way. The lives of our Han people are naturally greater than the sky. Naturally, the four of us may as well shout something, but the Dragon City Flying General Now, if you don’t teach slogans like Humadu Yinshan, and set up a national hero’s golden archway for yourself, it’s hard to say, Liu Dapao will use us a lot.”

"In the final analysis, the real number one enemy of the Junggar Khanate is the three tribes of Khalkha and Mongols. No matter how he wants to deal with us, he must first destroy the three tribes of Khalkha. It's time to finish the fight, whether it's clear or clear, our reinforcements will naturally arrive."

"Furthermore, let me take a step back and say, don't we have a tacit agreement with Galdan? In the final analysis, the Junggar Khanate is not essentially the oppressive rule of Erut Mongols over the Hui and Tibetans. Tibetans don’t like the Heshuot Khanate, so would they like the Junggar Khanate?”

"When we leave the customs, try to kill as many Hui and Tibetan people as possible, forcing the two peoples to rely more and more on the Mongolians, and intensifying the conflict between Han, Hui and Han. For the attachment of Temeng, it is too late for Galdan to thank us, so how could he rush to destroy us?"
