Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 276

Tu Guobao, who was rescued, looked dispirited.

He muttered in his mouth, "How could Suzhou be lost, how could it be lost again."

He is a majestic governor of Jiangning, and he lost the city of Suzhou twice in three months. Even if the king of heaven comes, he will not be able to keep him.Not to mention that the old boss Hong Chengchou was also transferred to Huguang, and now it is Yan Wogong who is doing business strategy.

How to do?
Lieutenants Cao Hu, Zou Xixiang, and his nephew General Yang Guohai sat around and sighed together. This year is really unlucky.

"That's not right," Tuguo Baoteng stood up, "When I left Suzhou, Meilezhang Jingkangkala led the [-] Manchurian Eight Banners to the south, and its forward [-] cavalry had already entered Suzhou City, so I was relieved to lead the troops. They left, and this happened three days ago, why Wu Shengzhao easily swindled into Suzhou City now, what about Kang Kara's soldiers? Even if most of them didn't arrive, what about the forward with five hundred riders who have already entered the city?"

"Where did they go?"

Born as a second-class bodyguard in Kangkala, his grandfather Wanyan Boerjin lived in Wanyan and took the land as his surname. Nurhachi raised an army and took Dingkou to vote. , under Manzhou Xianghong Banner, Huang Taiji ascended the throne, ranked among the eight ministers, led the Xianghong Banner to Gushan Ezhen, and died of illness.

Kangkala has such a brave grandfather, so he has a good official career. He was selected as a bodyguard very early and has been a second-class bodyguard. Yan Wogong went south again, originally stationed in Jiangning, and divided the left and right wings with Bashan.

Then there is a new edict, Tan Taibai is the general who conquers the South, and the four generals including Bashan are stationed in Jiangning, Suzhou, Songjiang and Hangzhou.

Kangkala was stationed in Suzhou, with 5000 full Mongolia Eight Banners, plus [-] Green Battalion, leading [-] people directly.

This is not a weak army, especially the Eight Banners of Manchuria and Mongolia with [-] new troops going south.

Tu Guobao hurriedly called the reporter again, and asked him carefully for a long time.

It turned out that before Wu Shengzhao arrived in Suzhou, that is, on the third day after he left Suzhou, the five hundred Kangkala forward Mongolian cavalry who had been stationed in Suzhou received an urgent military order and left Suzhou for Changzhou.

When they left, the five hundred soldiers who left Tu Guobao in Suzhou City also took away.

As for the reason, Wu Yihui, the governor of the Ming Water Transport, joined forces with Zhang Huangyan, the commander-in-chief of Shizhong Township of the Imperial Camp, and soldiers from Lu Xiangguan of the Zhongsu Camp to raid Changzhou, and the navy admirals Huang Binqing and Zhou Hezhi also entered from Huangtian Port in Jiangyin.

Thousands of troops in Kangkala were ambushed halfway, retreated into Changzhou, and were besieged, so 500 troops from Suzhou rushed to reinforce after hearing the news, and took away the [-] soldiers in the city.

An empty city remains.

Let Wu Shengzhao pick up a huge bargain.

Everything is such a coincidence.

Tu Guobao's face was gray and defeated.

He bowed his head in silence for a while, then shouted again, "There is a problem, there is a problem, there is a problem here."

Yang Guohai asked his uncle in confusion, "What's the problem?"

"There are problems everywhere."

Tu Guobao roared angrily, the veins on his neck were protruding, and his eyes were about to squeeze out, "Although Kang Kara was born as a guard, he served under the command of Prince Yu for a long time, and he also conquered Mongolia. North Korea, after entering the customs, he fought all the way to Jiangning. He is very familiar with Jiangnan, and I have also dealt with him. He is young and brave. In truth, he is a bit stronger than the dead ghost Li Soltai before. With five thousand elites, how could he be ambushed and retreat into Changzhou Mansion?"

"Under normal circumstances, who would dare to ambush five thousand Manchurian elites? Isn't this courting death? Ambushing them is sending them to death. What's the point of retreating into Changzhou Mansion? They must have been chased and beaten by Kang Kara, and even the entire army was wiped out." possible."

Cao Hu had to remind Tu Guobao, "Changzhou is surrounded by the imperial camp under the command of the Nine Kings. We have dealt with Shizhong Town. Before that, our standard camp was wiped out by the entire army. Wu Yi's Cao Biao is also quite elite. Biao is good at water warfare, and there are many cannons on board, coming and going like the wind, and the attack is fierce."

"There is also that Lu Xiangguan of the Zhongsu Camp, that is Lu Xiangsheng's younger brother. He was served by a clan and county king before, and he has been beaten to the city of Nanjing. He is also a ruthless character. Now he is reorganized by the Nine Kings and awarded the Zhongsu Camp title. Although it is not an imperial camp, it is not to be underestimated because of its strong soldiers and horses.

What's more, this time they also dispatched two naval divisions. Although Huang Binqing and Zhou Hezhi were stationed in Zhoushan before, I heard that they were supplemented by many warships from the Zheng family of Fujian, artillery from Macau, and food and pay from the Nine Kings. The morale was high. The previous battles against Taizhou and Tongzhou all ended in World War I. Liu Liangzuo, who was stationed in Yangzhou, was so frightened that he abandoned the city and fled. "

"Yes, this time the Ming army dispatched five troops at a time, advancing both land and water. Kang Kara was able to retreat to Changzhou after being ambushed, which is already very capable. If it was replaced by other people, it would have been wiped out."

Tu Guobao was impatient to hear this.

"What's the use of having more soldiers? How can the elite of the Eight Banners be compared to the Ming army? Before that, Li Sutai led hundreds of cavalry and chased them from Suzhou to Songjiang. Huang Fei killed tens of thousands of horses and wiped out his entire army. "

"Huang Fei can't compare with Nine Kings' imperial camp. We treat Huang Fei like three fingers pinching snails, but Nine Kings' imperial camp beats us, but we can't eat them to death."

The battle at Qionglong Mountain left a deep impression on them, especially for Cao Hu who was still a prisoner.

"Don't interrupt my thoughts. I'm not saying that the Nine Kings are not powerful, but that there is something weird about this incident. The Ming army didn't dispatch a whole group of troops this time, but dispatched five groups of troops from Taihu Lake and Chongming to ambush them. How could they Did you know Kangkara's southward plan and route in advance?"

"Why can they know, why can they ambush on the road in such a timely manner?"

"It is not easy to mobilize so many troops in a short period of time. I suspect that someone has leaked Kangkala's marching route in advance."

"Also, this Wu Shengzhao didn't turn back sooner or later, why did he rebel at this time, why did they come just when we left?"

The more Tu Guobao talked, the more dignified his expression became, "Don't you think these are too coincidental?"

"Even, why did we leave Suzhou? We were forced to leave because Mr. Yan gave us ten days to take down Chongming,"

"Why did Wu Shengzhao rebel? I suspect it is also related to breaking Chongming within this time limit."

"I seriously suspect that all of this has something to do with Yan Wogong!"

"hiss!"

Cao Hu, Zou Xixiang, and Yang Guohai couldn't help but take a long breath. The analysis result of Tu Guobao was too scary.

"My lord Yan is a popular minister whom the regent is admiring, and a scholar of the Inner Academy manages the five provinces in the south of the Yangtze River."

Tu Guobao frowned, believing his guess more and more.

"Who is Yan Wogong, don't you know as well as I do? How did we come back from Suzhou City last time, and how did Fu Biao come back? Didn't Yan Wogong come forward to fiddle with it?"

"My Lord Yan's relationship with the Nine Kings is much deeper than ours."

"I suspect that Mr. Yan is a spy."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Cao Hu and others shook their heads again and again, "If he is really a spy of the Nine Kings, how could he have passed this test after another? Li Yuchun, Zhang Cunren, Xiao Qiyuan, Tian Xiong, and then I don’t believe Boluo, Tulai, Doduo, and even now the Regent, none of them can see through him?”

"So this must be your guess wrong, my lord. Maybe it's just a coincidence."

Tu Guobao shook his head.

Yang Guohai reminded him, "Uncle, we have lost Suzhou again, so we must get it back quickly. Call troops immediately and go back to Suzhou."

Tu Guobao slammed his fist on the table in pain. During this period of time, he searched everywhere for the accumulated money, and it was still in Suzhou City, which was more than what the Nine Kings took away last time.

"There is a problem here, there must be a problem!"

Cao Hu and others also have money in Suzhou City, and now everyone wants to go back immediately and take back Suzhou from that thief Wu Shengzhao.

"You lead troops to seize Suzhou, and I will go to Jiangning."

"To Jiangning?"

"To untie the bell, you have to tie the bell. No matter whether Mr. Yan is the master or not, he has the final say on the land in the south of the Yangtze River. We lost Suzhou City again this time. If we want to pass the customs, we have to find Mr. Yan." male."

Tu Guobao even thought in his heart, even if Mr. Yan is really the Nine Kings, he can't control so much. Now he just wants to get rid of the crime and keep his status. He doesn't want to rebel like Wu Shengzhao, that has no future. of.
