Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 555
"General Gao!" Wang Yongqiang turned his head and handed Gao Wencai, "Wang wants to take care of General Gao, and asks General Gao to bring a light cavalry to escort Wang Yushi back to Yan'an.

When I arrived in Yan'an, I met my brother Yongzhen and told him that from now on, he will obey Wang Yushi's command. .

The rebel armies in Shanxi were defeated, Jiang Yu in Datong would not last long, and northern Shaanxi could not defend alone, so let's find a way to go to Longyou via Ningxia. "

Wang Jiaqin shook his head.

"I'm a patrol officer or a military supervisor. How can I abandon the army and flee before the battle? Even if I die in battle, I still have to be in the army."

But Wang Yongqiang looked at Gao Wencai, "We must protect Wang Xiucai, go ahead, I will try my best to hold Wu Sangui back, and bring our son, he is our queen, and even more our hope, we people from northern Shaanxi are confused After fighting for so many years, this time, we must be clear, we are fighting to defend our home and country, and to protect Chinese civilization!"

"Keep more children, I hope the future will be peaceful, and they can also see the stability of northern Shaanxi."

After Wang Yongqiang finished speaking, he took off a wine bag from the saddle, which contained kumiss.

He took a sip and raised his spear.

"Fight!"

Even facing the world-renowned Guan Ning Army and Wu Sangui, he still aroused his fighting spirit.

Gao Wencai's chest heaved, he wanted to say a lot, but finally swallowed it back.

This is not the time to push back and forth.

"go!"

"I do not go!"

"I am the Shanxi supervisory censor sent by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. I am the military officer of the imperial court. I am the supervisor of the rebel army in northern Shaanxi. I will not leave!"

Gao Wen couldn't help it, so he simply slashed the back of his neck with a knife, knocking him unconscious.

"Follow me, disciple camp!"

Gao Wencai called his own cavalry battalion, several old comrades who had been frontier soldiers listened to the order with complicated expressions, and the original battalion formed by the generals of the rebel army sent to Wang Jiaqin was also handed over to Gao Wen by Wang Yongqiang at this time. Talented people take it away together.

This children's battalion was originally regarded as a half-hostage, and also served as the guard of the emperor's imperial envoy, but Wang Jiaqin treated them very well and turned this battalion into a teaching battalion, training them like an imperial battalion to train excellent officers.

"Go!"

Gao Wencai forced a salute to Wang Yong. He was once defeated by his subordinates, that rogue bandit, but now he really admired him. If he stayed, he would die, but Wang Yongqiang still chose to stay.

Horseshoes are like thunder.

From far to near.

The Guanning cavalry, dressed in cotton armor, galloped like lightning, and came surging like a tide.

Wang Yongqiang carried a gun and rode past the front of the formation, loudly boosting morale.

"Folks and brothers, today, there is death but not life, but even if it is death, you have to die hard."

"Swear not to surrender, kill!"

Facing Guan Ning's army, Wang Yongqiang was the first to charge forward on his horse.

He single-handedly rushed out a dozen steps later.

More than a hundred of his family cavalry also rushed up.

The Rebel Front is shaking.

A man with braids cut and head wrapped raised his flail, shouted, "Kill the Tartars!" and rushed out.

Nervous rebels look at me and look at you.

Then another boy rushed out holding the iron fork.

An old man followed with a mulberry fork.

Facing death, more and more people shouted and rushed out.

Some people began to turn around and run away, more and more, but still some people chose to move forward.

Under the setting sun.

Wang Yongqiang took the lead and charged at Guan Ning's army without hesitation.

Behind him, more and more rebels followed.

But more rebels were fleeing in all directions.

Wang Yongqiang didn't look back.

He shouted to kill, and rushed to the Qing army.

sunset.

The sky is dark.

On the beautiful plain between Fuyang and Sanyuan counties in Guanzhong, the Guanning Army, a powerful army built by the Ming Dynasty with all its might, is now holding the flag of the Tartars against the Guanzhong Rebels holding the banner of anti-Qing. A merciless massacre unfolded.

Guan Ning stepped on his horse.

wanton slaughter.

The tens of thousands of rebels, except Gao Wencai and Wang Jiaqin on his back with more than a thousand riders, were almost wiped out whether they fought bravely or fled in shock.

The Guanning army massacred more than 1 rebels in Meiyuan, blood-stained the plateau, and the rest of the defeated soldiers were all captured.

After Bayan and Zhang Tianfu made a detour, they also captured the empty cities of Pucheng and Fuping in one fell swoop. Wu Sangui triumphantly entered Pucheng, but the remaining rebels in the city attacked him with a hidden cannon after he entered the city.

Wu Sangui was almost killed, his beloved mount was killed, and he was also injured.

Angry Wu Sangui ordered Pucheng to be slaughtered, and the whole city was slaughtered.

More than 1 people in the city were slaughtered.

After killing all the people in the city to vent their anger, Wu Sangui went to Beijing to win the battle, "Beheading 540 officials including Wang Yongqiang, the false admiral, Guo Yuqi, the false general soldier, and more than 63 thieves. Fuyang and Pucheng were restored, and [-] false seals were obtained.

Wu Sangui ordered the severed heads to be sealed with mud and built into a Beijing temple to test their achievements, and also to deter the rebels and vent their anger.

In the first battle of the United States, although the rebels were defeated, Wang Yongqiang's desperate blow also caused Wu Sangui's troops to suffer a lot, and thousands of people were killed in one battle.

But Bayan, Zhang Tianfu and the others attacked the two cities, unexpectedly they were also fought to the death by the few left behind rebels, killing thousands of people.

In the end, Wu Sangui was even almost killed by a surprise bombing attack.

Five or six thousand people died before and after. Although not all of them belonged to his old Guan Ning troops, the loss also made him very annoyed, so he simply massacred the city to retaliate, and even pretended that the massacred people were rebels to reward them for their merits.

For the captive rebels, all the elite and strong ones were selected to supplement his army.

"Send this report to the imperial court in Beijing urgently."

Wu Sangui carefully read the memorial written by himself several times, and then handed it to the soldiers.

Tens of thousands of people were killed at once. In fact, there were many opposition voices among the generals of the Guanning Army, but Wu Sangui finally killed them.

Even slaughtered civilians in a city.

"As soon as the good news of the prince enters Beijing, the imperial court will firmly believe in the loyalty of the prince, and will reward him greatly." A confidant deputy commander saw Wu Sangui's deep intentions.

Because of the incidents of Hong Chengchou, Yan Wogong, Tu Guobao, Qian Qianyi, Wu Shengzhao, Li Chengdong, and Liu Liangzuo who surrendered and rebelled one after another, the upper echelons of the Tartars now treat the Han generals, especially the surrendered generals of the Ming Dynasty, That's extreme mistrust.

After Wu Sangui surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Ping Xibo of the Ming Dynasty added the title of King Pingxi to participate in the Southern Expedition, and then he was also awarded the title of King of Yunnan. He promised that after Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan were conquered in the future, Yunnan would be entrusted to him, and Yongzhen would be enshrined in the world. Naturally, Wu Sangui also worked very hard.

But at the critical moment of fighting Zhang Xianzhong in Hanzhong, the imperial court transferred him back to Guanzhong to quell the chaos, and let Li Guohan of the Han Army Banner stay in Hanzhong, which obviously did not trust him.

So Wu Sangui fought very hard in this battle, and even after the battle, he deliberately slaughtered a Pucheng under the pretext of being ambushed. In fact, he just wanted to show his loyalty to the Tartars.

It shows that Wu Sangui is not only capable of fighting, but also loyal. This loyalty is absolutely true. For this reason, he not only wiped out tens of thousands of northern Shaanxi rebels in the first battle, but even directly slaughtered more than 1 civilians.

Use practical actions to prove that I am now a loyal citizen of the Qing Dynasty, a bannerman of the Zhenghuang Banner, not a Han Chinese.

Although Wu Sangui joined the banner only in name after he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and his men and horses compiled 57 assistant leaders, which were actually independent of the Eight Banners of Han Dynasty, but it is precisely because of this that at this critical time, Wu Sangui needs to show his loyalty more and more.

A confidant deputy general asked, "In the current situation, it seems unclear who will win the battle. Why does the commander-in-chief insist on supporting the Qing and opposing the Ming?"

"Hong Chengchou, Qian Qianyi, Li Guo, Zhang Xianzhong and others are all willing to be accepted by Emperor Ming, so why don't you consider them?"

But Wu Sangui just kept a cold face, "Is it true that Zhu Yihai's surname is not Zhu? If he is not after Ming Taizu, this king may consider it." He shook his head and said to his confidants, "Don't look at Hong Chengchou, Qian Qianyi, People like Li Guo, Gao Yigong, and Liu Liangzuo are now high-ranking officials and well-paid, and even Zhang Xianzhong can get along well with the Ming army, but I dare to predict that it's not that Zhu Yihai doesn't hold grudges, it's just that the time has not come, and now is not the time.

If he can really win the world in the future, even if the north and the south stand side by side, as long as he is stable, he will definitely liquidate these people in an all-round way.
Don't look at the joy of laughing now, you will always make a list in the future.

Why should I, Wu Sangui, join in the fun?
Besides, despite the fact that the Qing Dynasty seems to be in some trouble now, I dare say that Zhu Yihai does not have the strength to wipe out Manchuria in one fell swoop. "

Wu Sangui is a smart man.

Back then, under the banner of avenging Chongzhen, he said he was borrowing troops from the Manchu Qing to take revenge, but in fact he was surrendering.

Now that the Tartars are in a bad situation, Wu Sangui thinks that this is their opportunity to descend. If the Qing Dynasty enters the customs as smoothly as before, and the world will be wiped out in a few years, it will be difficult for them to surrender in the future. There will be no good results.

Now that they are facing a stalemate, and are even at a slight disadvantage, it is time to show their role.

Only the Yunnan promised to him by the Tartars will be able to be obtained.

The icing on the cake is not as good as giving charcoal in the snow.

Hong Chengchou surrendered as soon as they surrendered, but he, Wu Sangui, would not easily jump repeatedly.

While you have soldiers in your hands, you are not afraid of running out of bargaining chips.

He was even thinking about whether to use this time to return to Guanzhong and kill Wang Yongqiang, and simply ask Beijing to guard Guanzhong. Wouldn't it be better if he could become the king of Guanzhong?

Even if the Guanzhong court refuses to agree, then the next best thing is to ask for Ningxia or Gansu, and it will not be too late when they get Yunnan.

Wu Sangui's twists and turns, most of his subordinates only saw part of it, and few of them really understood it all.

Hong Chengchou was once a person Wu Sangui admired very much. He didn't expect that he would surrender and rebel, and he didn't know what Hong Chengchou thought. No matter what, he had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. How could Zhu Yihai really trust him?
Even if he is granted the title of Marquis of Nan'an and the dean of the Admonishment Academy now, the higher he lifts now, the harder he will fall in the future.
