"can!"

As soon as Shang Shuying heard Li Zhongshan's words, she immediately realized that this was an opportunity for her, so she nodded without hesitation, then walked up to Li Zhongshan and fell down on her knees, "Zhongtang, you have to trust me, I can go to Xuzhou in person Shang Ke taught you what he said for you. Although this Shang Ke taught is not my uncle, but my family and him are both Liaodong Township Party members and both surnamed Shang, so we have always recognized each other. The Nu family also knows that Shang Ke can be taught is cowardly, greedy and despicable When he and his father were the general town in Wenzhou, they once ran away because the Guoxing Lord called, and both father and son were dismissed. It was only because they had soldiers in their hands. At that time, Southeast The situation was urgent, so he was given a job. After Guoxing was defeated in Nandu, their father and son regained their official titles. Both of them were afraid of Guoxing, let alone Zhongtang Tianwei?

As long as Zhongtang is safe and still able to teach a hereditary earl who is irreplaceable, and supplemented by the overwhelming force of soldiers, why should he not surrender with courtesy? "

"There is no problem with an earl," Li Zhongshan thought for a while, "Also, if I send troops to take down Suzhou City, is it okay to scare him?"

"Okay!" Shang Shuying said with a smile, "As long as Zhongtang takes down Suzhou City, the slave family is sure to bring Shang Kejiao and the family members of officers and soldiers from Xuzhou Town to Fuliji to surrender."

Li Zhongshan looked at Shang Shuying deeply, and pondered: "Your father died because of my father and son, and half of the Shang family died because of my father and son. How can I trust you?"

"can!"

Shang Shuying nodded heavily: "Zhongtang felt that my late father was not loyal to the Qing Dynasty?"

"Loyal!"

Li Zhongshan nodded.

Although Shang Kexi is not a thing, his loyalty to Daqing is undeniable.He did not participate in the San Francisco Rebellion in history. He was led by his son Shang Zhixin to seize military power, and Shang Fan participated in the San Francisco Rebellion.

Moreover, Shang Kexi's indiscriminate killing in Guangdong was ultimately for the sake of loyalty to the Qing Dynasty. Otherwise, he could have shown benevolence and kindness to the coastal relocation, secretly amassing strength in order to make a big move.

Isn't that what Wu Sangui is like?Make yourself seem to have "anti-thief collection addiction"!
"But the whole family of my late father was slaughtered by the Qing Dynasty, leaving only my late father and two uncles!" Shang Shuying said slowly, "Actually, I Dagong is not the real big brother of my family, he is just The boss who was born after his late father defected to the Qing Dynasty. Before him, his late father had three sons and four daughters, all of whom were slaughtered by the Manchurians when Liaonan Town was destroyed. But even so, didn’t the late father follow the Qing Dynasty wholeheartedly? Just like my late father, I am willing to break my body and bones for Daming!"

"Okay!" Li Zhongshan slapped his thigh, then reached out to support Shang Shuying's arm, and helped her stand up, "Shuying, this time you can teach me what you said, and your vote will come true." Afterwards, you will be my elder sister Li Shuying, and even if the Shang family seeks rebellion with the Eastern King, you will not be involved. From now on, you will be a Northern Princess safely!"

"Thank you Zhongtang!"

Shang Shuying was about to kneel and kowtow again, Li Zhongshan hurriedly supported him, and said with a smile: "Sister Shuying, our family is not in the imperial court, how can an older sister kneel down for my younger brother? From now on, we will be a family. It’s enough to meet you.”

Under the arrangement of Luo Dawei, the patriarch of the Luo family, Shang Shuying disguised herself as a landlord wife who took refuge, and went to Xuzhou the next day.Zhou Chang, who was in charge of the overall situation in Fengyang City, brought thousands of Huaixi regiments with high morale, and drove to Luojiaji in Huaibei with hundreds of carts of soldiers and rations.

Because the enclosure of Luojiaji was already crowded with the cavalry brought by Li Zhongshan, he ordered Zhou Chang to arrange the Huaixi soldiers under his command to camp outside the enclosure, and then invited Zhou Chang into the center he had placed inside the enclosure. Jun, after a few words of pleasantries, Li Zhongshan asked with a smile: "Pei Gong, how is the situation on the south bank of the Huaihe River? Are there many people who have taken refuge with us?"

Zhou Chang leaned forward and said: "As soon as Labu ran away, the Manchus' plate in Fengyang collapsed. Shouzhou, Dingyuan, and Huaiyuan below Fengyang Prefecture, and Wuhe County below Sizhou all looked forward to the wind and surrendered. All the tyrants in the prefectures and counties have surrendered to us. These prefectures and counties plus Fengyang County are all the land of Taizu Longxing! The local tyrants are almost all descendants of Huaixi heroes, and many of them still wear clothes left by their ancestors. The official robes and hats of the Ming Dynasty, and they came here with the seal of the Ming Dynasty!"

After listening to Zhou Chang's introduction, Li Zhongshan also laughed and said, "When the Ming Dynasty was here, everyone didn't know how to cherish it. Once it is gone, you will know that the Ming Dynasty is good! Look, the official robe seal of this ancestor Not willing to lose it."

As he spoke, he glanced at Luo Dawei who was accompanying him. He was in his 40s, tall and tall, with broad brows, a thick short beard, and piercing eyes. He was a powerful man in Huaibei Suzhou. He passed the Wen Xiucai and Wu Xiucai exams, but he didn't have a high school background. He is generous, kind, and loyal, and has great prestige in the village.And his ancestor was also a Huaixi hero who had followed Zhu Yuanzhang. After the world was conquered, he was appointed as a commander in Shanxi, so he spread his branches and leaves in Shanxi.However, like other Huaixi heroes, the Luo family did not cut off their ties with their hometown, and kept arranging for their descendants who did not do well to return to their hometown to become local tyrants. In the past 300 years, I don’t know how many clansmen have moved back to Huai.The branch of Luojiaji moved back to Huaishang during the Jiajing period, and it has been around for a hundred years.In the past hundred years, the Luo family in Suzhou has not produced any great officials, but there are still a few small officials from hundreds of households.That's why Luo Dawei is now wearing an ancestral official uniform of a small officer of the Ming Dynasty, with his breasts and belly protruding, his eyes wide open, his face full of mighty expressions, as if his ancestors possessed him!
"Military Master, this Mr. Luo Qian is also one of our own after the great hero of the Ming Dynasty!" Li Zhongshan pointed to Luo Dawei and said to Zhou Chang, "His nine clans have joined the Ming Dynasty!"

Luo Dawei's nine tribes are distributed in Suzhou, Mengcheng, Huaiyuan, Lingbi, and Wuhe. They are all good places for the red scarf in the late Yuan Dynasty and the Nian army in the late Qing Dynasty. The place names are a bunch of "ji" and that "Collection", the upright officials are anxious when they see it, they all want money or not, the master who will not give it!

But conquering the world depends on these people!
And Luo Dawei is now taking refuge with the nine clans, and also handed over the Luojiaji where his family lived to Li Zhongshan's troops, and turned all the strong men of his clan into regiments to prepare to help kill people. This revolutionary stance is already very firm. trust!

However, Li Zhongshan and Zhou Chang emphasized that "he is their own person" in order to let Zhou Chang say confidential things in front of Luo Dawei to show their trust.

"Military division, do you think Shang Shuying is reliable?" Li Zhongshan then asked the most confidential matter!
"Zhongtang," Zhou Chang said, "Shang Shuying sincerely seeks refuge with Daming!"

Li Zhongshan nodded without commenting.

"But she may not really turn to Zhongtang."

There is a difference!

Now Shang Shuying's husband is Northern King Liu Jinzhong, and her elder brothers are all confidantes of Eastern King Geng Jingzhong.Her interests in Daming are obviously greater than that of Qing and Wu Sangui!

But how many common interests does she have with Li Zhongshan?

Zhou Chang analyzed: "Now the overall situation in Fengyang has been decided. The soldiers from the Manchurian Jiangxi battalion are attacking Nanjing together with the soldiers from the Jiangnan and Jiangdong battalions. They are powerless to send a large army in Huaixi, unless Xuzhou is taken by us. Break through. If Zhongtang suddenly disappears at this time, as long as Liu Beiwang does not attack Xuzhou, he can grow in Fengyang with peace of mind. When the time is right, he will send troops to rescue Nanjing. The future Nanjing court will be the two kings of the East and the North Headed home!"

Li Zhongshan nodded, then turned to look at Luo Dawei: "Luo Qianhu, what do you think the headquarters should do?"

Luo Dawei cupped his hands and said loyally: "My lord, you have to trust me, and I am willing to lead the strong men from the Huai River to attack Xuzhou for my lord!"

This is called the lord. This Luo Dawei is still very good at "Stud"!

Li Zhongshan may be the little tyrant of his level in this life. No, he is the only "lord" that generations can meet!
If you don't stud now, when will you stay?
"Military division," Li Zhongshan said to Zhou Chang, "you and Dawei will work together!"

"Yes!"

"Great!"

"Chen is here!"

"Gather all the strong men of your nine clans, and the headquarters will form them into the Huai Army regiment for training, and then lead them to attack Suzhou City!"

"The minister leads the order!"

At this time, Xuzhou City is located on the south bank of the Yellow River in Henan!It is next to the embankment of the Yellow River, the Yellow River is on the top, and Xuzhou is on the bottom. The people in Xuzhou City can see the Yellow River hanging over their heads as soon as they look up!
But the problem is that no matter how terrible the Yellow River is, they have nowhere to go. They can only stay at the foot of the Yellow River honestly. The only thing they can do is to repair and repair Xuzhou City!The city must not only be tall, but also thick!In other places, the city was built to deal with the enemy's artillery and siege warriors.And Xuzhou City is used to deal with the Yellow River's embankment breach, and the power of the two is not at the same level at all.

And when will the enemy come?

Since the reign of Chongzhen, the Yellow River has been bursting every now and then. Small breaches occur every year, and major breaches occur every few years.

Therefore, in the construction of the Xuzhou project, there is absolutely no such thing as cutting corners, only processing and adding materials. After finally becoming the prefect and the general soldier, don’t let the city collapse and people drown when the flood comes. The money is all for nothing.

Moreover, the flooding of Xuzhou was not accidental at all.
In addition to the extremely strong city, the terrain of Xuzhou City is also very dangerous, with the Yellow River directly to the north and east!It is impossible to deploy the troops at all. To the south are Yunlong Mountain and Yunlong Lake, and the troops cannot be deployed either.Only the west side is flat, and troops can be deployed.But the flat land to the west is also at the foot of the Yellow River, and no one dares to camp by the river unless the dams of the Yellow River are captured.

Can capture the embankment. What if the enemy takes the dam first?
So this Xuzhou city is definitely a castle that even Li Zhongshan, a siege expert, has a headache!

This is not a question of whether you can fight or not, but a question of not being able to fight at all!

As far as the general soldiers guarding Xuzhou are still able to teach and the magistrates are young and old, Xuzhou City is the capital for them to make contributions in troubled times!

As long as they guard Xuzhou, they can make contributions to the Qing Dynasty if they advance, and they can have a capital to settle down in the new dynasty if they retreat.
But if they were asked to choose between the Ming and Qing Dynasties immediately, they would definitely choose the Qing Dynasty.

After all, both of them grew braids as bannermen since they were young, and they have long regarded the Qing Dynasty as their own country, and their family members were also detained in Beijing by the regent Wang Fuquan.

If they dare to rebel, they will be left alone immediately!

In addition, the current Ming Dynasty does not look like it will soon sweep the world. The city of Nanjing is almost besieged by Yue Le and Jie Shu's soldiers.In this future world, maybe the surname will be Wu, right?
So when the two of them learned that the concubine Shang Shuying, the concubine of Liu Jinzhong, the northern king of the Ming Dynasty, came to ask for an audience, they both felt very conflicted.

This Shang Shuying should have come to persuade her to surrender!

But they were not willing to surrender to Daming!
When Daming was surrendered, the family members were gone, and the two of them could only depend on each other.And will it be over after the Ming Dynasty?Not necessarily!Looking back, Nanjing was broken by Yue Le, and the Qing soldiers counterattacked Huaixi. Most likely, Wang Datou and Liu Jinzhong had to go to Wu Sangui for refuge.When the time comes, they will have to surrender again!
What's the matter?

It's not that they are embarrassed to be three ministers, but that Wu Sangui wrote them a letter to persuade them to surrender. You are not happy to vote for Wu Sangui directly, so you have to let Wang Datou lead the vote?
Won't you surrender?

In addition, if you vote for Wu Sangui by yourself and follow Wang Datou to vote for Wu Sangui, can he be treated the same?

So the two of them want to vote for Daming now, that is really the worst option, they might as well stick to Xuzhou and see the situation first!

But because it was Shang Shuying who came, they had to welcome them. Although Shang Kejiao and Shang Kexi were not brothers, they were all surnamed Shang after all, and they were still fellow villagers.

How can you turn your face and deny people now?
So they politely invited Shang Shuying into the flower hall in the back garden of the prefect's yamen in Xuzhou, and then saluted the Mrs. Xushun's mansion and Pingnan Wang's mansion.

"Please click for Grid."

"Meet Greg."

Seeing the two high-ranking officials of the Qing Dynasty greeting her with thousands of greetings, Shang Shuying also seemed a little emotional, "What else should I ask for? The good Pingnan Palace and Duke Xushun's Palace are gone now."

Speaking of this, her nose was sour and tears came down.

"Gege, don't be sad." Shang Ke taught, "Aren't you the Northern Princess now?"

Nian Xialing also said: "Gege, this is inevitable in troubled times. Now that I Dagong has followed Dongwang, the future is boundless."

Shang Shuying sighed: "In the future, it may not be the third prince Zhu who will win the world, maybe it will be the king of Wuxi? Moreover, the loyal north king is also very unreal, not to mention Li Zicheng and the west king, it will be the south king, The Eastern King and the Yi King also have their own domains, but the Northern King has no territory."

"Doesn't the Northern King have Chaozhou?" Shang Ke asked.

Shang Shuying shook her head: "Chaozhou. It has been controlled by Li Fuchen for a long time! Li Fuchen dominates Guangdong and Guangxi, has [-] troops, can divide the world into four parts, and retreat to Yongzhen Tiannan. How can the King of the North be allowed to sit on an equal footing with him?"

"What about Huaixi?" Nian Xialing asked.

"Huaixi is most likely to be controlled by Li Zhongshan!" Shang Shuying said, "Li Zhongshan is one of the three main halls in Nanjing, and he advances and retreats with Lu Sanhao and Chen Yonghua. Small, unless."

"Unless what?"

"Gege, what do you mean?"

Shang Shuying's face darkened, she looked around, and found no one else, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Unless... Li Zhongshan died in Huaibei!"

"Dead in Huaibei?"

"Gege, what do you want?"

Shang Shuying's face was gloomy: "If you two are willing to surrender, he will wait for you to lead your own soldiers and the families of officers and soldiers in Xuzhou Town to surrender at Fuliji in Suzhou. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

Shang Kejiao shook his head again and again: "I'm afraid it won't work? I and Nian Zhifu only have 3000 to [-] green battalion soldiers. How could it be possible to take down so many soldiers from Wang Datou?"

Shang Shuying said: "If you can't take it, you won't submit a letter to King An, asking him to mobilize elites from Jiangnan to go north?"

"Deploy troops from the south of the Yangtze River? What about the siege of Jiangning?"

Shang Shuying smiled: "Jiang Ning is right there, and he can't run away. Besides, isn't Wang Datou and Liu Bei Wang the most powerful fighters in Jiang Ning City? Now that they have all arrived in Huaibei, what should King An worry about? If If you can kill those surnamed Wang in Huaibei, wouldn't it be safe to fight Jiangning later?"
