Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 330 People of the country, shareholders, let's defend the republic together! (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)

"God bless Dajing! Your Majesty, this is our last and best chance!
Now the battle between Wu Sangui and Li Zhongshan is a bit like the battle between Chen Youliang and Zhu Yuanzhang at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. Once Wu and Li decide the winner, you must be the next target of the winner!
So you can't imitate Zhang Shicheng and sit back and watch Chen Zhu decide the outcome, you must go all out!
Because you are the same as Zhang Shicheng. You are the emperor! "

Yue Le's suggestion to Geng Jingzhong is of course "Stud"!

The reason why he suggested this is because on the one hand, Yue Le can vote for Wu but not Ming - he voted for Ming once before, and then rebelled with Geng Jingzhong, and wanted to kill Li Zhongshan and Li Er Fu Chen, how dare he vote bright?
On the contrary, there is nothing wrong with him voting for Wu. He is nothing more than "not losing his position as a marquis". It is impossible to separate the regime and take real power, but there is no problem for a rich man.

On the other hand, Yue Le really wanted to fight for his son-in-law.No matter how bad it is, if you vote for Wu Sangui, you will not lose "anle, Chenliu and Guiming".

If it falls into the hands of Li Zhongshan, it will be a dead end!
Because what Geng Jingzhong did in Nanjing was to suddenly attack his own people. If he didn't kill him, how would Daming's team lead him?
"Guo Zhang, I know what you said!" Geng Jingzhong thought for a while, and then asked, "Shall we fight now? Should we wait for Wu Sangui and Li Zhongshan to make a big move?"

Just like you still know?

As soon as Yue Le heard this, his heart was half cold - he couldn't move it!
"Your Majesty," Yue Le said, "How do you know that Li Zhongshan won't come to destroy us before the decisive battle with Wu Sangui?"

"What? He will go first. Isn't he afraid of Wu Sangui going down the river?"

Yue Le shook his head and said: "Unable to go along Jiujiang blocked Li Zhongshan's way to go west along the Yangtze River to Wuchang, so he could only watch Wu Sangui eat Li Zicheng. Similarly, Anqing also blocked Wu Sangui's way down the river. With Wu Sangui in hand, it is impossible for Wu Sangui to advance to Nanjing at once. Therefore, Li Zhongshan will probably gather heavy troops to destroy or disable us first, and then go to a showdown with Wu Sangui!"

When Geng Jingzhong heard this, he immediately panicked. These days, Li Zhongshan first went to the Northern Expedition, and after returning to Nanjing, he has been busy straightening out the internal affairs, and left the fight against Dajing to Li Fuchen and Liu Jin Zhong and Zheng Jing.

These three alone have caused Geng Jingzhong a lot of trouble. Zheng Jing and Liu Jinzhong grabbed a lot of land in Fujian and Zhejiang, and Li Fuchen was even more aggressive. He snatched all Geng Jingzhong's land in Anhui, and then went to Jiangxi to grab Daqing's land. The territory is gone—fortunately, he changed the direction of attack, otherwise Geng Jingzhong's territory would have to be reduced by a few more mansions!

"King An, then...then how should we deal with Li?" Geng Jingzhong frowned when he asked.

"First of all, you have to recognize the Great Zhou Emperor as the Uncle Emperor! And you should be a minister to the Great Zhou, just like the Qing Dynasty." Yue Le said, "What you do, first, you can strengthen your momentum, second, you can reassure people's hearts, and third, you can strengthen Zhou and Jing. , Qing Three Kingdoms Alliance!"

"Okay!" Geng Jingzhong nodded heavily, "I am two generations lower than the Emperor of the Great Zhou. Besides, Kangxi claimed to be my minister Sun Xuanye in the papers given to Wu Sangui, so why can't I call myself my nephew and nephew Jingzhong? And I am older than Kangxi, so what?" I am Kangxi's brother!"

Well, Kangxi has another emperor brother!
"Secondly, we have to temporarily abandon Fujian, concentrate all our troops in Zhejiang, and then look for opportunities to attack Jiaxing, Huzhou, Huizhou or Guangxin!"

Yue Le was probably afraid that Geng Jingzhong would not understand, so he specially explained: "We can no longer disperse our troops, we have to clench our fists, and then forcefully attack any of the four prefectures of Jia, Hu, Hui and Guang. , Hit it hard! After the fight, you don’t have to take up the territory, you can just grab it and leave, just like Emperor Taizong and Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty entered the pass to plunder!
By doing this, firstly, we can contain Li Zhongshan's troops; secondly, we can accumulate wealth and enhance our own strength; thirdly, we can avoid being captured by Li Zhongshan's main force for a decisive battle. Of course, our own old battalion has to be moved. Nest, the old camp can be moved to Jiande County, Yanzhou Prefecture, which is surrounded by mountains and has a dangerous place on the Xin'an River, and it is convenient to launch counterattacks to Anhui and Jiangxi. "

"Okay!" Geng Jingzhong nodded, "Just do it like this!" He smiled and said to Yue Le, "Guo Zhang, you are really my subordinate, and I will listen to you in all future wars!"

In the second year of the Ming Dynasty, November [-]th.

Nanjing.

In the newly completed political hall of the National People's Political Council, a group of political officials in red robes and black gauze were holding the newly published "Guo Shi Review" and breathing heavily.Everyone's face is not very good-looking, you look at me, I look at you.

Leaders Huang Zongxi, Wang Fuzhi, Gu Yanwu, and Chen Gongyin were all sitting on the chairs of the grand masters, and each of them had a copy of the "Guo Shi Review", looking over and over carefully, as if this issue of "Guo Shi Review" had not been read by the four of them before it was printed. .

The political officials below have already discussed with each other.

"This Wu Sangui is too shameless, isn't he? He is a slave of four surnames, capricious, and a treacherous hero who pretends to be emperor. He actually wants to avenge the late emperor of Ming Dynasty! Speaking of the late emperor's death, Wu Sangui himself is also responsible Ah! The late emperor had asked him to save lives a long time ago, if it wasn't for his slow-moving all the way, would the late emperor be able to hang onto the coal mountain?"

"Hmph, the first emperor, the first emperor, Yizong is not the only one who wants to take revenge. Lord Yongli is also the first emperor! Who will avenge Lord Yongli?"

"Avenging Yizong is an excuse! Just watch, when he takes Jiangxia down, he will definitely say that Li Zicheng has gone to Anqing or Nanchang, and then he will send troops to fight Anqing and Nanchang! This old thief is going to destroy us Great Ming Dynasty!"

"It's really the most shameless traitor in the ages!"

"If this Wu Sangui is the most shameless rebel in the history, then Geng Jingzhong is probably the second most shameless rebel in the history. He actually issued an edict saying that he has recognized Wu Sangui as his uncle, and from now on he will call Wu Sangui Emperor Uncle and Emperor Kangxi Call me the emperor. Well, Wu Sangui, Kang Mazi, and Geng Jingzhong are married now!"

"Speaking of family, the general and Wu Sangui seem to be related too."

Hearing this question, Huang Zongxi, the political leader, finally turned his attention away from the article on the 18 ways to eat chili peppers (signed by Mr. Mochou) in the "Guo Shi Review", and then looked at a group of deliberative officials who were discussing endlessly. Coughed.

Huang Zongxi is the true originator of the theory of "Yuanjun" and "Yuanchen", and has many disciples. He has presided over new Confucian schools such as Guangdong Restoration Academy and Nanjing Restoration Academy. Will be a boss!

Today's Tiandihui is no longer a rebel organization, but has evolved into the largest "hui" in the National People's Political Council. This Tiandihui member not only controls the Nanjing National People's Political Council, but also controls the current established Seven prefectures, including Guangfu, Yingtian, Fengyang, Yangzhou, Sizhou, Suzhou, and Songjiang, and the county-level national councils below these prefectures, as well as the three elders of the township below the county.

Since the generation of political officials of the National People's Congress is based on the selection system of the three elders in the Han Dynasty, a bottom-up and layer-by-level selection method will be gradually implemented-now the national government officials at the imperial court level are Li Zhongshan, Li Fuchen, and Zheng Jing , Chen Yonghua, Lu Sanhao and other major shareholders decided.Therefore, Huang Zongxi, who is a leader of the Tiandihui and a mentor of Li Zhongshan, still has a high prestige among the political officials.

Hearing his snort, the others fell silent.Huang Zongxi slowly raised his head: "What nonsense are you talking about? The marriage between the general and Wu Guogui and Wu Yingxiong is all to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty! Wu Sangui was the Western King of the imperial court before, and he contributed a lot to our Ming Dynasty's recovery! In order to leverage the power of the Wu family, the general married with him for the sake of the country and the people. Besides, in the future... this marriage relationship may not be used to divide and win over the princes of the Wu family. After all, Wu Sangui is already old, and now this time , is also the last fight, if we lose, will Wu Zhou fall apart, who can say clearly?"

Huang Zongxi's disciple, Wan Sinian, is also a political councilor now, so of course he also passed on a message to the teacher, and immediately asked: "Teacher, how should the political council cooperate with the General's Mansion and the Minister of Public Affairs this time?"

"We have to pass a resolution to appeal to the countrymen and scholars all over the world, telling them that the enemies of Ming Dynasty and the Republic have now united to destroy the Republic Daming of our countrymen and scholars!

Therefore, every citizen and scholar of the country should stand up now, with money and strength, to defend Daming and the Republic.And all Ming people who are not Chinese, but want to become Chinese, and have the ability to become Chinese, should now seize the opportunity to serve the country by serving the country or donating money to help the army, or buying a large amount of Ming government bonds and lending money to the court.

We should also tell the people of the world that it is very cost-effective to become a citizen of the Ming Dynasty and a national scholar.Because when Daming defeated Wu Sangui, Geng Jingzhong, and Kangxi, and unified the country, it would be even more difficult to become a national and a scholar.

And when the Ming Dynasty has unified the whole country, the Ming Dynasty will have the fertile land of Liaodong, and the Tianfu of Sichuan will become the suzerain of Korea, Japan, Luzon, Annan, Java, Siam, Burma, Mongolia and other four countries. There is a lot of land that can be distributed, and the people of the country who have made meritorious service in the army can get the land, and the people of the country who bought the national debt are not afraid that the court will not be able to pay it back, but they can also get the land!As for those national scholars who want to be officials, the larger the territory and the more countries they belong to, the more opportunities they have to become officials!In the final analysis, this Republic of Ming Dynasty is the property of our countrymen and scholars. If we don't maintain it ourselves, who can maintain it? "

Huang Zongxi was a big talker when he was young. Although his reputation was great, it was mostly false.Now, after going through a series of ups and downs such as national disaster, saving the country, subjugating the country, subjugating the world, restoring the world, and restoring the country, I have really enlightened, and I really love the country and the Republic!
So what he says now is from the bottom of his heart!

"That's right! Now Daming has us, as well as those Chinese and scholars! If we don't take good care of it, if it really disappears, it will be miserable!"

"Guardians, the responsibility of the countrymen and scholars! We must make this truth clear to everyone. Now is the critical moment for the rise and fall of the Ming Republic. All countrymen and scholars must go all out to protect the country and family!"

"Yes, it would be too tragic to subjugate the country and the world, if you lose."

Most of the political officials who are waiting for the meeting in the conference hall today, like Huang Zongxi, have really experienced the subjugation of the country and the world!

Although they are the same kind of people as those scholar-bureaucrats in the Chongzhen Dynasty, their experiences are different and their thoughts are also different.Now when I think that the Republic of China might end, everyone is really worried about the country and the people!
They all know that Daming is going to be gone, and these people are definitely not going to change the court to be an official, but there is a high probability that their families will be ruined. Many of them have seen this kind of thing with their own eyes!And what kind of court to change to is not as good as your own court!

"Don't worry everyone, it is impossible for our Ming Dynasty to lose. Because we have millions of people and scholars!"

These political officials just started to worry about losing, when Li Zhongshan's loud voice suddenly rang out!

Everyone quickly stood up, then turned to the gate of the political discussion hall, and saw the "iron triangle" of Li Zhongshan, Lu Sanhao, and Chen Yonghua walking in together.Among them, Li Zhongshan walked on the dragon and tiger steps that his relatives did not recognize, and at the same time, he said to the people in the political hall with a voice full of confidence and confidence: "Our Republic of Ming Dynasty is the same as Wu Sangui's Zhou State, Geng Jingzhong's Pseudo-Jing, Kangxi Hu Qing is different from our country, which belongs to millions of people, national scholars and tens of millions of people who can become Chinese! Wu Sangui, Geng Jingzhong, and Kangxi are all the heads of a family. We have one heart and one heart, and count With the support of tens of millions of people, how could it be possible to lose?"

Daming is an employee-owned joint-stock company!

While Dazhou and Dajing are both family businesses, Daqing is a partnership system. And this competition is more like a fight!

Therefore, as long as the Republic of Ming Dynasty is fully mobilized, it is impossible to lose!

What Li Zhongshan has to do now is to mobilize the people of the country. Regardless of the current productivity of tens of millions of people, it is impossible to directly mobilize so many people.But as long as the power of millions of people and scholars can be mobilized, it is not something Wu Sangui, Geng Jingzhong, or Kangxi can resist!
However, to complete the mobilization of millions of nationals and scholars, it is not enough to just talk about it.

It is necessary to give those Chinese and scholars a sense of urgency first, otherwise they may not necessarily want to bulldoze the whole world, and they do not want to. Li Zhongshan is also quite difficult.

Now it would be good for Wu Sangui to take the initiative to fight, and Geng Jingzhong's eagerness to make a move is exactly what Li Zhongshan wanted.

As for Kangxi, don't try to stay out of it, it's impossible!
As long as Ming completed the war mobilization, how could it be possible to let Qing go?

After the nationals and scholars felt the urgency, it was time to mobilize public opinion and the economy—the resolutions of the political councils at all levels, the propaganda in newspapers, the sale of national debt, and the promotion of national identity. handle.

While public opinion and economic mobilization begins, military mobilization must also follow!

And military mobilization is not just as simple as recruiting troops. It also has to cooperate with the previous victories!
Winning a battle is the best military mobilization!

But Li Zhongshan has no good news to announce now.

Li Zhongshan sat down on a grand teacher's chair, and Chen Yonghua, Lu Sanhao and other deliberative officials also sat down.Then everyone's eyes focused on Li Zhongshan, the great general Lu Shangshushi.

"I just got the news," Li Zhongshan said, "Wu Sangui's Son of Heaven banner has appeared in Hankou. Li Fengtian will leave Jiangxia County within twelve hours and turn to Mubu Mountain! In addition, Hanyang, the first county of Hanyang Prefecture County, as well as Anlu, the first county in De'an Prefecture, and Zhongxiang, the first county in Anlu Prefecture, have already fallen, or are about to fall! Huanggang, the first county in Huangzhou Prefecture, probably won't last long."

There is actually no way around these failures. As long as Wu Sangui is determined to tear his face apart, it is impossible to rely on Li Zicheng's strength to hold all the territory of so many state capitals.However, except for the two prefectures of Hanyang and Anlu, the other three prefectures with large mountainous areas may still persist in the struggle against Wu!
The key members of Li Zicheng's subordinates are actually the remnants of the Kuidong Thirteen Clan, and they like to establish bases in mountainous areas the most.

And when Li Zicheng allocated land to these old backbones, he also deliberately chose the valleys and valleys they liked more. It is estimated that he also had the idea of ​​going into the mountains if he couldn't do it.

If Hu Yiqiang, the marching commander under Li Zicheng's command, can act according to the plan of the general's mansion, then Wu Sangui will know what mountain guerrilla warfare and mountain mobile warfare are!Oh, he met him in Yunnan and Guizhou, so he is quite familiar.

But the Zhongwangfu army is not comparable to those chieftains!
And there is a Republic Ming behind them!

Thinking of this, Li Zhongshan said again: "Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. Moreover, it is not a bad thing for Wu Sangui to take Jiangxia, Hanyang, and Hankou. ?”

"The general wants to march west?" a political official asked.

Li Zhongshan nodded: "My father Nan Wang and Zhong Wang's coalition forces have arrived at the outskirts of Jiujiang, they plan to break through Jiujiang Mansion first, and then fight Wu Sangui according to Jiujiang!

This officer felt that fighting in Jiujiang was a good choice, so he decided to lead an army of [-] troops into Anqing, and wait for Wu Sangui to come to the decisive battle! "

"What about Geng Jingzhong?" Someone asked again immediately.

Li Zhongshan said with a smile: "Geng Jingzhong is not worth mentioning. He is just a dog guarding the family. After I repel Wu Sangui and go back to deal with him in three to five months, I can completely wipe out the power of the Geng family." So you don't have to worry!"

What Li Zhongshan said was half-truth and half-false, the purpose of course was to confuse the enemy—although most of the deliberative officials were supporters of the Ming Dynasty system, it was hard to guarantee that there were no Wu Sangui and Geng Jingzhong among them.

Even if there is no false news that is equally confusing, it will be spread through other channels. Maybe Wu Sangui cannot be fooled, but it is still possible to coax Geng Jingzhong.
