Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 116
Hangzhou.

The handover has come to an end, and Boluo, who is preparing to return to the north, has received another good news from Li Yuchun.

These days, Li Yuchun's good news came one after another. Yesterday he took back Ganpu, today he took back Haiyan, tomorrow he took back Pinghu, and the day after tomorrow he took back Jiaxing.The one on the left recruited Zheng Jiwu, a Haining rebel, and the one on the right recruited Zhu Dagang.

Surrender five hundred today, accept one thousand tomorrow.

The gentry from all over the country even shaved their hair and joined them, and brought sheep and wine to welcome Master Wang.

Anyway, under his sweep all the way, none of the rebels could hold on. Although they suffered a loss in Zhujiazhuang and lost 2000 troops, they also completely defeated the spirit of Jiaxing's puppet rebels in that battle. Qishen, since then, no puppet Ming army dared to face them.

Li Yuchun will win every battle, and he is invincible, just like the god of war.Of course, all these victories are also inseparable from a Haiyan Juren named Yan Wogong. The camp, food and grass, and even they led Li Yuchun to detour into the camp of the puppet army, and finally won the victory.

And this Yan Wogong went all over the place to contact the gentlemen and gentlemen from all over Jiaxing, and even the generals of the local garrison, and recruited many people to surrender for him.

For example, Zheng Jiwu and Zhu Dagang from Haiyan entered the city alone and successfully persuaded them to join them anyway with his three-inch tongue.

Anyway, Yan Wogong recruited countless surrenders.

Boluo couldn't help but be very curious about this Juren who is full of courage and has a long mouth, his lips and tongue are stronger than swords and guns. Li Yuchun strongly recommends him, so naturally he can't ignore it.

Although there is still some suspicion that Li Yuchun lied about his military achievements, the several fast horses he sent out all reported that they are indeed holding the banner of the Green Camp all the way from Haining County to Xiushui, the prefectural city of Jiaxing.

They met Li Yuchun in Jiaxing Fucheng, and found that the deputy chief soldier was now strong and strong, with more than 2000 troops under his command. In addition, there were more than a dozen local gentry's armed forces, who were still under Li Yuchun's command.

They also brought Boluo 2 taels of silver, which made Boluo very satisfied.

After much deliberation, Boluo decided to reward Li Yuchun and this Yan Wogong. Li Yuchun was the deputy commander-in-chief of Jiaxing Xiezhen, under the command of the Hangjiahu commander-in-chief. In fact, this was basically the position of Jiaxing general in the Ming Dynasty. , In order to appease these surrendered generals, they were specially upgraded. The general became the deputy general, the deputy general became the general soldier, and the general mutiny became the admiral.

There used to be one general in each province, but now there are several in a province, and an admiral is placed above the general. The rank has been improved, but the powers have not changed.

The lieutenant general Li Yuchun was newly promoted, but the commander-in-chief was just appointed, and there was no vacancy.

"Reward Li Yuchun, named commander in chief, and reward 800 taels of silver."

In the end, Bo Luo had no choice but to get Li Yuchun a registered general soldier. This thing is not a real general soldier, but it will give you a general soldier rank first, and you can enjoy some general soldier treatment, such as wearing the general soldier's official uniform, but In fact, if you want to be the commander-in-chief, you have to wait for the position to be vacant. This is the same as the selection of officials by the imperial court. After passing the examination of the Ministry of Officials, you can get the official status, but you still have to wait for the official vacancy. If you don’t get the actual official vacancy, you have an official He has no actual ministry power.

This thing was originally used for civil servants in the past, but now it is also used against generals. After all, there are too many surrenders, and the official positions cannot be arranged.

"What kind of official position is suitable for Mr. Yan?" Bo Luo asked General Zhen Guo Bai Yintu.

"Since this man can speak well, let him continue to recruit and appease him, and give him a civil position. You can ask the court to grant him a Jinshi background. Don't all Chinese literati look at this Jinshi status? Then recommend him. The censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is ready, it would be best if he could be summoned for an interview, so as not to be deceived by Li Yuchun."

"They are all Han Chinese, not my race, so their hearts must be different."

"Indeed, I don't quite believe Li Yuchun's bragging that Mr. Yan is the same as Zhuge Kongming. If he really has this ability, wouldn't he be as good as Fan Wencheng and Hong Chengchou? If he really has such ability, I will definitely To recommend him at least to be the right deputy capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and ask the imperial court to send him an imperial edict to recruit the former civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty in Zhejiang as an imperial envoy."

"Then Zheng Jiwu and Zhu Gang of Haining repeated it again and again, this kind of person might as well be cut off." Bai Yintu said.

They've dropped it twice.

"No, right now we should focus on appeasement. As long as you are willing to surrender, you still have to be appeased. When the future is completely stable, it will not be too late to settle it slowly. Li Yuchun said that Zheng Jiwu and the others accepted the Chongming Puppet Yiyang King to supervise the country. Feng, worship Haining Marquis and Haiyan Bo?"

"Then let's be more generous this time. According to the old rules, the original official title can be retained, and can even be sealed. This Zheng Jiwu will be awarded a registered admiral, and he will be awarded the Haining Navy Commander. He will still retain the title of Haining Marquis. Commander in chief, actually appointed as deputy commander in chief of the Navy, and retains the title of Earl of Haiyan."

"Give a reward of 500 taels of silver to each of the two men, and ask them to submit their troop books."

"It's best to let them send their mother, wife and children as hostages," Bai Yintu reminded.

"I summoned Mr. Yan to come to Hangzhou for an interview, first grant him the supervisory censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and if he is really capable, it is also possible to ask the right deputy capital censor at that time."

Bai Yintu didn't care too much about the few Han surrenders. What he cared more about was whether it's appropriate to leave now?

"Then there is a state of Lu Jian on the south of the Qiantang River, why don't we send troops to destroy it before leaving?"

Boluo said bluntly, "The regent has been urging us to be a teacher. Hong Chengchou and the others have all arrived in Jiangnan now. We can't stay away forever. Besides, the soldiers of the Eight Banners in the army also want to go back early."

"Prince Yu has already prepared to leave, and has sent people to urge him several times."

"But this Lu Jianguo doesn't care?"

Boluo said disdainfully, "What is Lu Jianguo? It's just a few idiots who took the opportunity to think about getting addicted to power. That Hongguang claims to have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and wants to rule the river, but it's not like we will be defeated by us. ? And that Lu Wang claimed to be the supervisor of the country, but when we came, didn’t we just persist for five days and then surrender?”

"What about Lu Jianguo and Yiyang Wang Jianguo? Do you think they have come up with any tricks? There is no need for our Eight Banners elite to dispatch, just leave it to Hong Chengchou, Zhang Cunren, Tu Guobao, Wu Zhaosheng, Tian Xiong, Li Chengdong and others. These vassals and generals should be of some use, right? Raising a dog knows how to guard the house, so you can’t say that raising these guys can’t even do this, right?”

"Those Han people are the most treacherous. I'm afraid that they will support the bandits. Besides, the Yiyang King gathered many Hongguang's deserters and defeated generals in Chongming. It is said that they have 30 troops, and the whole Jiangnan is about to move. I'm afraid we As soon as the army leaves, they will turn the world upside down, and if those generals can't hold down the place, won't we still have to lead troops south to quell the chaos?"

But Boluo said, "It's useless to tell me these things. Now Beijing is in power. Dorgon is the regent. He has the final say in the court. Now he orders us to hand over Jiangnan to Hong Chengchou and others, so that we can be teachers. , can we still resist orders?"

Bai Yintu twisted his beard and lowered his voice, "Why do you think the regent insisted on sending Luck Dehun to succeed you?"

Boluo said without hesitation, "That's not easy. Two years ago, Tiancong Khan passed away. At that time, the clan was fighting for the position of Khan. Luck Dehun and his elder brother publicly supported Dorgon, but the results were unanimously rejected by all parties." Afterwards, the two brothers were arrested by their grandfather, Prince Li Daishan. In the end, Adari was executed for disrupting state affairs, his uncle Shuotuo was also imprisoned, and Luck Dehun was also deposed from his clan title and his title. He was demoted to a commoner under Hauge.

At that time, the situation was very dangerous for Dorgon, and in the end he had no choice but to lose his pawn and protect his commander.

But who knows, our Prince Rui is still very smart. Although he was killed by Oboi and others and failed to sit on the Khan seat, he still quickly controlled the two white flags and quickly gained control of the Khan court. After entering the customs, he even became the regent, and the power of the court is in his hands. How can you say that he will not express his gratitude to Luc Dehun, who publicly supported him back then? "

"Using Luck Dehun as General Pingnan to replace me in guarding Hangzhou is also to announce to everyone that he will not treat those who follow him badly."

Speaking of this, Boluo is obviously a little dissatisfied. Boluo is Nurhachi's grandson, Dorgon is Nurhachi's son, and Luck Dehun is Nurhachi's great-grandson. They are a family.

The power struggle within the lovely Xinjueluo family has always been fierce, whether it was the fierce struggle between Huang Taiji and several big Baylors over the succession of Khan after Nurhachi's death, or after Huang Taiji's death, his brothers wanted to fight with each other again. His son fights.

They all involve the big families of Aixinjueluo, and every time someone falls down.

Luck Dehun is the grandson of Daishan, Boluo is the son of Abatai, and Daishan is the second son of Nurhachi, one of the Four Great Baylors.

Abate is the seventh son of Nurhachi.

And Dorgon is the fourteenth son of Nurhachi, Duduo, Prince Yu of Nanjing, is the fifteenth son of the emperor, and Prince Azig, the commander of another southern expedition, is the twelve sons of the emperor.

Among them, Dorgon, Azige, and Duoduo are brothers of the same mother and compatriots, and they are the legitimate sons born to the fourth Dafujin in Nurhachi.

Although Boluo's father, Abatai, is also the son of Nurhachi, he was born in a partial house and has been excluded from the core of the highest power for a long time. Although he has experienced many battles, has outstanding military exploits and is very prestigious, Huang Taiji is very tolerant of this concubine brother. , but does not really trust in giving power.

Right now Abatai is leading the left and right wings to send troops to guard Shandong to deal with the rebel local armed forces, but I heard that Dorgon has also ordered to call Abate back to the court.

Even Abatai, who was guarding Shandong, was recalled to the court. Would Abate's son Boluo be allowed to stay in Hangzhou?

It is not unusual at all to replace Bo Luo, who is not one of his own, with Luck Dehun, one of his own.

Boluo was like a mirror in his heart. The general of the clan, Bai Yintu, also understood, but he still felt that Jiangnan was not at peace, so he hurriedly sent them back, for fear that their long-term military power would pose a threat to Dorgon. I still feel unconvinced.

"I hope that Lu Jianguo and Yiyang Wangjianguo can teach that boy Luke Dehun a lesson, and it's best to make him look ashamed." Bo Luo sneered.

Bai Yintu also smiled and said, "That's right, when Le Ke Dehun can't control the south of the Yangtze River, Baylor, you can ask for an order to lead the army south again."
