I have a cornucopia

Chapter 119: Your Highness Princess, you have grown up

"Princess, you have grown up and need to face the real world.

The world is cruel.

Death is the most common thing.

No matter who, whether the emperor or the poor, may die unexpectedly at any time in a troubled time, the Ming Dynasty has been two hundred and seventy-six years, and His Majesty has been the emperor for seventeen years. Regardless of the Ming Dynasty Guo Zuo or his reign has been counted. It's long. What's more, the Ming Dynasty is still not dead, and he is still the emperor, but now he needs to face an existential crisis. It would be best if he can survive it. Even if he cannot survive it, there is nothing to be sad about.

Empires always fall.

All mortals are mortal. "

Governor Yang, who met Her Royal Highness the Princess in Jinan, persuaded her seriously.

Then the princess cried even more sadly.

She wanted to return to Beijing to bury her mother, but Governor Yang used His Majesty's instructions to tell her not to come to Beijing at this time. After all, going to the capital now would be like giving Li Zicheng a hostage...

The Qing army only went south to help Ming regain the capital and rescue the emperor, but they would not continue to go south, and the Qing army had no ability to invade Shandong again. Shandong only needed to strictly guard Dezhou. In addition, this secret letter was actually supported by Wu Sangui and others. The latter even used Zhang Ruoqi to persuade Yang Feng to participate in the grand event.

They will not remain in the customs.

He is very rich now.

He is innocent.

The latter actually led some of the knights of Confucius and Mencius to go north for reinforcements. Now Shandong has fully entered a state of war, and almost all the knights of Confucius and Mencius from all over the rear have gone north for reinforcements. After all, no one knows what will happen to Li Zicheng next. On Wu Sangui's side, Song Quan, the governor of Miyun, came to Beijing to meet the emperor. After all, he still had to see whether the emperor was real or fake. On the other hand, Li Zicheng's side still had not identified the mastermind of the regicide case after hundreds of noble officials were killed by Liu Zongmin.

Li Zicheng died happily.

Song Quan went to Beijing to see whether the emperor was real or not, and it was all because Wu Sangui deceived Li Zicheng. In fact, he, Wang Yongji, Shanhaiguan Commander-in-Chief Gao Di, and Song Quan made the decision to use troops to suppress the bandits. Song Quan came to Beijing just to delay time. Wu Sangui had already sent his generals Yang Shen and Guo Yunlong to Shenyang, carrying a letter written in the name of the prince. If they sent out troops, all the previous conditions would remain the same. Even Zhang Ruoqi supported it. Although he was from the Zhang family in Jiaozhou, and several aristocratic families in Jiaozhou did fight with the Qing army last time, he now believed that loyal ministers could not worry about this. The biggest enemy now is Li Zicheng. Look at what he did in the capital. Do you still have any illusions about a bandit like him? He has already tortured the Gongun princes, why don't you quickly send troops to suppress the bandits and kill him?
What happened to the Qing army?
The Qing army also treated virtuous corporals with courtesy!

In fact, he had already asked Chongzhen to issue an order, ordering the prince and princess to return to Beijing to bury their mother. After all, the queen was dead, and their children must go back. But what Yang Feng brought was the emperor's secret order, although he only said it verbally. , but what he said must be true.

Yang Feng handed the secret letter to Qiu Zude and said.

This was all when he borrowed the money!
Because his father-in-law was harmed by Yang Feng last time, Liu Zongmin only took out 300,000 taels this time. Last time Chongzhen borrowed money, he only took 3,000 taels, and it was Empress Zhou's private money, and He himself also blackmailed his daughter for two thousand taels, but under Liu Zongmin's stick, he spit out three hundred thousand taels. This figure made his daughter die with tears in her eyes!

Zhengchou had nothing to threaten Yang Feng.

Then several elders from the Shandong Tongshan Association nearby became anxious.

As for the past things, they are all in the past. Yang Feng can ask for anything he wants. After rescuing the emperor, it is definitely not an exaggeration to give him a duke. How can a governor be worthy of him? He must at least be a governor.

"Feng Sheng, how can this be a rebellion? It is also a good thing to use troops to suppress the bandits."

He just came to help the Ming Dynasty regain the capital and rescue His Majesty the Emperor.

Finally, Li Zicheng was surrounded in the capital.

It wasn't his fault to flee the capital with Queen Yi'an and the Crown Prince. He was still a loyal minister. He just wanted to protect Queen Yi'an and the Crown Prince. What was wrong with him? If Song Quan goes to Beijing and then returns to Shanhaiguan and says that the emperor in the capital is real, it means Wu Sangui surrenders. If Song Quan goes back and says that the emperor is fake, or suddenly takes out his clothes and carries an edict, it means Wu Sangui will not surrender to Li Zicheng .

The content of the secret message is very simple.

One of them anxiously tried to snatch it from Qiu Zude.

Qiu Zude took the letter.

The most filial piety!
More importantly, the danger in Shandong can be relieved.

He can rest assured that Dorgon promised to withdraw outside the customs after regaining the capital.

"It's still like this after all!"

After all, he also knew that Yang Feng actually didn't care much about the emperor's life or death.

If Gui Gui surrenders to him, then the regicide case must have nothing to do with Gui Gui. It was framed by two treacherous officials, Chen Yan and Zhang Jinyan.

As the princess cried, Yang Feng said to Du Li, who was escorting the princess.

Wu Sangui and the Qing army went south, while Yang Feng led the Shandong Army to the north.

Borrow troops to suppress the bandits.

It is said that in just twenty days, he has withdrawn more than 20 million.

but……

"Give this to Li Zicheng!"

Then when it’s time to be promoted to a higher rank, you still have to be promoted to a higher rank.

Make a million a day!
I don’t know how Chongzhen in the palace felt about this news. You must know that Yang Feng and Wu Sangui had already scraped it twice. After these two bastards scraped it twice, Liu Zongmin actually pinched them twice. of.

Qiu Zude and others in front of him also had solemn faces.

Besides, this is not a betrayal of the Ming Dynasty. It is the prince of the prison country borrowing troops to suppress the bandits to save his father.

"Send the princess back to Antonwei!"

After arranging the princess, Yang Feng walked out of her room and looked at a secret letter in her hand.

As for Li Zicheng, he is waiting for Wu Sangui's choice.

So after Liu Zongmin learned that Yang Feng had more advanced equipment, he had already generously bought Yang Daxun's holy clamp stick with 10,000 taels of gold and a box of jewelry. At this moment, the Gonggun princes in the capital should have been experiencing it modern technology.

North and south echo.

This was sent by Zhang Ruoqi from Yongping Bingbei Road.

But the next moment Yang Feng kicked him in the chest, and the old man screamed and flew backwards, then hit the ground hard and twitched, blood gushed out of his mouth, and then his head tilted and he died.

There was silence all around.

The elders all looked at Yang Feng in shock.

It is said that this is the first time that Governor Yang has revealed his true colors within the Shandong Group. He has hidden it well before and is very polite to these elders. Although he has a brutal style in the capital, it is not too much for the Shandong gentry. touch. Besides, he mainly harmed the nobles in the capital, and in the eyes of the gentry, the nobles deserved harm. The money he got from harming the nobles was used to provide relief in Shandong, and everyone got obvious benefits. Although in fact they also understood that Yang Feng was definitely not what he acted, and this guy was actually not a good bird, his style of kicking an elder to death just because of a disagreement still frightened these elders.

This doesn't taste right!

This is obviously developing towards cruelty.

"Your Majesty has decreed that anyone who uses troops to suppress the bandits will be punished for treason. I am doing this for the good of his family. You don't want him to be killed by the Yi clan, right?
Borrowing troops to suppress the bandits?

Thousands of Jianlu's skeletons are still hanging on city walls across Shandong. What gives you the confidence that Jianlu will really act in accordance with the agreement if he really enters Shanhaiguan? I also tell you clearly that I was the one who killed Mrs. Hong. As for why I didn’t bring his head back, it’s because I thought it was rotten on the road, and they wouldn’t admit it, and they couldn’t identify it even if it was rotten, so I just threw it away. Given to a pack of wild dogs. Although I will not support Li Zicheng, I will not do such a thing as leading a wolf into the house. I have no possibility of reconciliation with Jianlu, and neither do you.

So whoever dares to support borrowing troops to suppress the bandits, I will send him on his way first. "

Yang Feng sneered.

The elders looked at each other.

"Yes, yes, we are all His Majesty's ministers, but we must obey His Majesty's will. Since Your Majesty has given the decree, we must obey it no matter what."

Fang Kezhuang said quickly.

"Yes, we only obey the imperial edict!"

……

Other elders expressed their opinions one after another.

As for their true thoughts, this is actually not important. At least they will not openly support the use of troops to suppress the bandits in the future.

Of course, in fact, not all of these elders really support the use of troops to suppress the bandits. In the last battle in Shandong, they had already formed a blood feud with the Jianlu. After the war, in order to show off their victory, many of the heads were killed. The Meng knights took it back and hung it on the walls of their respective states and counties. Even some people who did not participate in the war spent money to buy a few pills from prefectures and counties with a large population in order to show their prestige, so that they could show off their participation in the war when they went back. Anyway, this kind of thing was written casually in the county annals. They had fun, and now they are all dumbfounded. They are not stupid either. Even if the Qing army promised not to covet the Ming Dynasty, everyone understands that there is no such thing as coveting the Ming Dynasty. If the Qing army defeated Li Zicheng, would it still be possible? Can we let the Ming Dynasty's flowery world go without ever returning to the bitter cold land of Liaodong to suffer?

If they defeat Li Zicheng, it will prove that they are invincible in Ming Dynasty.

Last time...

Last time didn't prove anything.

The key to winning last time was that the Qing army penetrated too far alone.

Especially without food.

Only then did Yang Feng seize the opportunity. He used continuous attacks like maggots attached to bones, coupled with the persistence of the cities to prevent them from receiving supplies, and finally dragged the Qing army to death. However, the Qing army would not go south again. Made this mistake.

At that time, there were tens of thousands of Eight Banners elites, and they really prepared for a decisive battle. No matter how hard Yang Feng fought, he couldn't hold it back.

He is not immortal.

If he were truly immortal, he wouldn't need to wear heavy armor every day.

He will also be blasted to pieces by cannonballs.

Therefore, the Qing army's promise is meaningless.

Once the Qing army enters the pass, there is at least a high chance that they will not go back and occupy the capital. As for Wu Sangui, it is nothing more than giving him as many benefits as possible. The Wu family has always made clear transactions, and as long as they give them enough benefits, they will be able to do anything. Easy to say.

Although we can also welcome my Qing army at that time, the problem is that the enmity last time was too deep, and there is still a high chance that the Qing army will retaliate. Even if there is no retaliation at the beginning, there may be a settlement in the future. In short, they are not sure about this matter. Now they are really in an embarrassing situation. They do not support borrowing troops to suppress the bandits. After Li Zicheng has solved Wu Sangui, he still has to go south. Shandong will still bear the brunt. Supporting the use of troops to suppress the bandits, there is a high possibility that the Qing army will move south after entering the customs. Shandong will still bear the brunt. At that time, it is still possible to face the Qing army's revenge because of the last hatred.

The only thing that can be done now is to continue to support Yang Feng.

At least he can protect the place.

As for his true colors being revealed...

Bear with it!
Anyway, it wasn't him who was kicked to death.

The overall situation is important, the overall situation is important!

"I'm afraid that even if this thing is given to Li Zicheng, it will be of no use. Twenty days have passed and Wu Sangui's people have already arrived in Shenyang. They have been planning this for a long time. Dorgon may have gathered an army to wait in Jinzhou. Even if Li Zicheng receives the letter and gathers his army to go north, by the time he reaches Shanhaiguan, Jianlu will probably have already entered the city and is waiting for him. "

Qiu Zude said.

Indeed, when Wu Sangui asked Zhang Ruoqi to send this secret letter, he must have considered Yang Feng to sell them.

If you dare to give them away, even if Yang Feng sells them, there will be no impact.

But it seems that Qiu Zude does not support using troops to suppress the bandits.

"Is Huang Fei still in Dengzhou?"

Yang Feng said suddenly.

"exist!"

Qiu Zude said.

Huang Fei was the commander-in-chief of the navy, and Chongzhen made many preparations. Although the plan was to go through the canal, Huang Fei was actually asked to take the navy north to Dengzhou, in case of an accident and the canal was blocked, he could be sent directly to Tianjin. Then leave by sea.

"I'm going to find him. Our armies continue to assemble in Dezhou and stand by. Li Zicheng can't defeat Jianlu and Wu Sangui. He only has tens of thousands of veterans. The others are just a mob with their own agenda. Once he is defeated, we can't let Jianlu pursue him. , as long as he is here, Jianlu will not care about us. "

Yang Feng said.

He also gets double insurance.

Go to Shanhaiguan and watch it.

Qiu Zude nodded.

As for the secret letter, just send it directly to the capital via urgent letter.

Of course not to Li Zicheng.

As the governor of Shandong, I suddenly received a secret letter from Yongping Military Preparation Road. I learned that a group with Wang Yongji, Governor of Jiliao, and Wu Sangui, Pingxi Bo as the core, wanted to lure the captives into the customs. It was completely my duty to report to His Majesty the Emperor. .

Yang Feng did not stay any longer, and there was no need for him to defend. Dezhou, Dongchang, Linqing, and then south to Caozhou, and then south to Xuzhou, are now a series of fortified cities. It can be said that a long line of defense has been built around Shandong, and behind it is Jinan, which is also a fortress. This year, more than 600 iron Hongyi cannons of various tonnages were cast in various places in Shandong, half of which were in Cities in northern Shandong.

Moreover, each city was rebuilt, that is, on the basis of the original city walls, forts suitable for Hongyi cannons were added, or Ningyuanization.

As for the latter, there is a population of tens of millions.

Of course, the offensive ability is insufficient.

After all, we can't expect a regiment like the Knights of Confucius and Mencius to have the motivation to go out to fight in the province.

Yang Feng then walked to the inn, kept changing horses, and then went straight to Dengzhou. When he arrived in Dengzhou, Li Zicheng had already received the secret letter, and then Liu Zongmin finally found out that it was Wu Sangui, the uncle of Pingxi, who was the mastermind behind the interception of the emperor at Lugou River. It was him who did it. That's right, he killed the queen and a prince. The great scholar Chen Yan and the Minister of War Zhang Jin testified. In this case, His Majesty the Emperor immediately issued an order and ordered the deputy marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, King Qin Li Zicheng, to lead his army to capture this traitor. …
