I have a cornucopia

Chapter 168 The Princess of the Ming Dynasty

At the same time that Yang Feng and Dorgon reached an exchange agreement, the first batch of reinforcements also arrived in Nanjing...

Of course, it was to reinforce Ma Shiying.

The Huizhou regiment was led by the current imperial censor Jin Sheng, his student Jiang Tianyi, and the martial arts champion Huang Geng. The Xuancheng regiment training was led by Ma Sanheng, Wu Hanchao, Shen Shouyao and others. These were all sons of aristocratic families. Ma Sanheng's grandfather, Wanli Dynasty's inspector Ma Rong, was also the main force in Xuancheng's resistance to the Qing Dynasty in history. Wu Hanchao was defeated. Dismembered by the Qing army. There is also the Chizhou Tuanlian led by Wu Yingji. This person is from the Fushe and is also a core member of the Fushe. It was originally the main force in the Hongguang Dynasty's attack on Ma Shiying in history. He wrote the public report on staying in the capital to prevent chaos.

To put it bluntly, they were actually waiting and watching before.

After all, they had no good impressions of either Ma Shiying or Yang Feng.

Not to mention Gao Jie and his like.

Ma Shiying has always been hostile to Fushe because of his special relationship with Ruan Dacheng, but he has been forcing Shi Kefa to re-appoint Ruan Dacheng. Both the Donglin Party and Fushe hate this traitor, and Yang Feng is here to ask for money. I don't like anyone who asks for money.

Gao Jie and these are even more proud soldiers.

Burning, killing, looting and other crimes were committed.

Who doesn't know how to beat a drowned dog?
Zuo Liangyu felt like he was in a cage, and participating in the siege was not a dangerous mission.

In the past, there was a possibility that the Qing army would go straight down the river. The local gentry were afraid of failure and would not support this. They should be considered morally responsible. But now that the Qing army is restrained by Yang Feng in Wuchang, they are afraid of nothing!

He was just acting.

Xuanwu Lake.

To put it bluntly, the Battle of Nanjing was a battle between a treacherous minister and a group of arrogant soldiers and a warlord fighting for the valuable money in Nanjing.

Not to mention the Ming Dynasty, even in all dynasties, there was no princess to supervise the country. "

Ma Sanheng said obviously a little confused.

Finally everyone came to the spirit.

Liu Liangzuo is already a lost dog.

Ma Shiying said to a group of senior citizens and regiment training officers in front of him.

Once he gains a firm foothold and is convinced that he is strong enough to suppress resistance, he will eventually continue.

Ma Shiying summoned them and then proposed to them that the elders' associations and local officials from all over the country should unanimously support Princess Kunxing to supervise the country in Nanjing. As for the issue that Li Zicheng did not agree with, this old Ma never worried. After all, he did not need to worry about this. It was clear that Yang Feng would solve this problem for Her Royal Highness at that time.

Of course, their real purpose in swarming to Nanjing was not just reinforcements.

"Everyone, do we have another choice?"

They are all adults!
Who doesn’t understand yet?
"Then who should it be? King Fu? Your Majesty is still here, and the prince is still here. If you let King Fu supervise the country, won't you be afraid that something will happen in the future that will last forever and bring disaster to the clan? The princess is a woman, but she also happens to be a woman. Both your majesty and the prince are both. Peace of mind.”

"Then, you can't let a princess supervise the country?

At the same time, the Zhenjiang regiment in the lower reaches crossed the Yangtze River and stationed at Jingkou, and together with the Jingkou garrison, repelled Tian Xiong's attack on Jingkou. The coalition composed of Su, Song and Chang Sanfu regiments were transported out of Xicheng by the Shen family's Shachuan Gang. The canal entered the Yangtze River and moved upstream to reinforce Jingkou. Zhang Guowei personally led the 20,000 officers and soldiers he collected in Zhejiang, and another 20,000 regiments including the Jinhua regiment of Xu Du's headquarters went north to Hangzhou. Fengyang Governor Zhu Dadian, who had been dismissed for corruption, was entrusted by the senior citizens' associations of each government. As the director, he leads this team to practice. This guy is greedy, and his style is still very strong. According to history, after the failure of Jinhua's resistance to the Qing Dynasty, he drove his whole family into the arsenal, including his gold and silver treasures, and then went in and lit the fire himself. Moreover, he was familiar with military affairs. , he was the commander in chief when the Ming army recaptured Dengzhou.

It's not like Lao Ma can't even see Yang Feng's little thoughts.

He really nailed them.

It’s better to die together!
However, the Qing army's march south made them realize that the lesser of two evils must be chosen. Whether it was for interests or national sentiments, they did not want the Qing army to get involved in the south of the Yangtze River. Whatever the latter did in the north, they did not want it. very clear. Although Dorgon did not forcibly shave his hair and change clothes in Huguang, and behaved like a king, no one was a fool. It was just because he couldn't do it now and he needed to win over the Huguang gentry.

Ma Shiying said with a smile that looked at them steadily.

First, there must be a supervisory state in Nanjing. Even the disaster in Nanjing was largely due to the lack of a supervisory state. Now that we have seen the dawn of the end, this problem must be solved first. Secondly, everyone knows what it means to let King Fu supervise the country. At that time, not only Li Zicheng will be angered, but even Chongzhen will be angered. He is still alive, and he is still thinking about one day he will rule the world again! Let his brothers supervise the country. Who will pay back after taking control of the country? Jingtai and Baozong brothers will not pay back, not to mention they are just cousins. In the future, no one can guarantee that Chongzhen or the prince will not come back. Chongzhen may be unlikely, but the prince is entirely possible. Even if King Fu obediently returns his power at that time, those who pushed him to supervise the country will inevitably end up with Yu Qian...

You can’t make fun of the three tribes!
"It is true that there is no such thing as a prison princess, but there is a Zhenguo princess."

Wu Yingji said.

Then he rolled his eyes for a moment.

Then Tamar is Princess Taiping. What do you mean?

"This matter is of great importance and cannot be decided by us. It is better to convene the elders of various prefectures and governors from all regions to make a decision together."

Jin Sheng said.

He is also a member of the Huizhou Elderly Association.

Moreover, he has been giving lectures and presiding over the Xiuning Huangu Academy for many years. He has many scholars and students in various counties. In fact, he is considered a main member of the Huizhou Elders Association. Otherwise, the Qing army would not have occupied Nanjing. He could still respond to the call in Huizhou. Follow him to fight against the Qing Dynasty. Originally, after the failure of the resistance against the Qing Dynasty, he was taken to Nanjing and killed after scolding Hong Chengchou. He was also tricked to death by Huang Shu. Huang Geng, along with him and Jiang Tianyi, led the Huizhou soldiers to guard Congshan Pass.

"How long will it take? If this matter cannot be settled quickly, I'm afraid there will be long nights and many dreams. Aren't you afraid that the chaos will expand and involve all places? There is no owner in Nanjing, and the imperial edict from Xi'an cannot be heard. Officials everywhere are at a loss, and local slaves Things are changing constantly, and those with military power are becoming increasingly arrogant. If we don't calm people's hearts quickly, I'm afraid it will really lead to the Five Dynasties of Troubles. Now most of the troops in Jiangnan are in Nanjing. As long as we make a decision, even if there is dissatisfaction in various places, they will have to admit it. , after all, the princess supervising the country is indeed the best way at present.

Someone can constrain Gao Jie and others to obey.

Zhengxi was also a famous Confucian in Jiangnan, respected by scholars from all over the country.

Most of you are members of the society, and you can be considered a young generation of talents.

We are enough.

First support the princess to supervise the country, and then use the edict to supervise the country to spread to all places. At that time, it has become a fait accompli. Who else dares to object? In this time of crisis, how can we be allowed to follow the plan step by step? If Zhengxi summons the senior governors from all over the country to Nanjing, I am afraid that it will be three or four months later. By then, before everyone arrives, Li Zicheng has an imperial edict prohibiting it, then we and others will To comply or not to comply?
Let's finish what has been done first. If Li Zicheng gets entangled in the matter again, it will happen that everyone in the country has the same hatred.

The relationship between the princess and Yang Feng was unusual. If Li Zicheng tried to obstruct it at that time, Yang Feng would definitely not sit idly by. "

Ma Shiying said.

Golden sound...

"Yes, you can't delay, otherwise things will change!"

Wu Hanchao said.

"Mr. Zhengxi, make a decision immediately. You are also an old minister of His Majesty. Now His Majesty only has the princess outside. Although she is a woman, she has no choice. How can Prince Fu supervise the country in a place of suspicion!" Wu Yingji also said.

"In that case, let me go and invite the princess!"

Jin Sheng finally said.

Ma Shiying nodded with satisfaction...

In fact, he just found someone to take the blame. He, a Guizhou native, is an outsider after all. This is the territory of Nanzhi, and it must be a reputable leader of Nanzhi. In this way, it cannot be said that he, a traitor from Guizhou, did it, and Jin The sound just meets this condition. He was a famous scholar in Huizhou and a local eunuch who was registered as a local eunuch. He was not a fugitive like Shui Tailiang, or a fugitive like Hou Xun. He was the censor of Qiandu and resigned because he was tired of the struggle between the DPRK and China.

Such people followed him, and the core members of the gentry circles in Huizhou, Xuancheng, Chizhou and other places gathered here to support the princess to supervise the country. It was obvious that they wanted to support the princess and coerced and induced him to agree.

It’s hard for an old horse too!
The main reason is that he has no background, and as a Guizhou native, he has no support at all.

All officialdom belongs to the group.

The Nanzhi Group is also the largest official group in the Ming Dynasty. Supporting princesses to supervise the country can only be widely accepted by their group. Those Nanzhi governors and envoys who serve as officials in various places will accept the choice of their hometowns. , and officials in other places also chose to accept it because of various interest entanglements. Simply because he led a group of military generals to support the princess to supervise the country, he was scolded as a traitor and brought harm to the country, and then the governors from various places angrily accused him of doing whatever was wrong.

Of course, the most important thing is that Lao Ma is just a politician. No matter what he does, he always thinks like a politician.

Look forward and backward.

Find someone who will take the blame beforehand.

They boarded the bridge immediately, and then went to ask the princess to accept the heavy responsibility of supervising the country for the sake of the Ming Dynasty.

At this time, Yang Feng was soaking in the Yangtze River.

"Damn it, you left so suddenly, you didn't even give me any time to prepare!"

He was lying on a piece of driftwood that looked almost rotten, looking at the pontoon bridge across the Yangtze River in front of him, where Qing troops were passing through under the cover of night, but towards the north bank...

Dorgon withdrew.

And the withdrawal was very decisive.

However, according to the cannon fodder of the Han army who defected to Wuchang, the two yellow flags should have caused trouble again. Dorgon tried to let the two yellow flags act as a supervising team, and then forced the cannon fodder of the Han army to continue to attack Wuchang City, but Obai and Sony did not agree and instead demanded Supervise the battle with a white flag. After all, supervising battles will lead to many deaths. The Hongyi cannons on the city even deliberately bombarded the supervising team, and then used Molotov cocktails and the like to force the cannon fodder to run back. Not only did they disrupt the supervising team, many of the cannon fodders even deliberately retaliated and attacked in the chaos. Supervise the team.

In short, there was a big quarrel between the two sides, and Dorgon withdrew his troops immediately.

But Yang Feng knew it a little late, or Dorgon ran a little fast.

Most of them have crossed the river.

Those still crossing the river are actually those attacking in the south of the city led by Duduo. In order to avoid the sight of the city wall, they bypassed the East Lake on the east side of Wuchang and then went to the bridgehead of Bailuji, but this was not Bailuji. Dorgon actually built two pontoon bridges, which connect Xinshengzhou to the shore, and downstream from Xinshengzhou to Bailuji. Moreover, the area of ​​​​this sandbank is not small, stretching for several kilometers. Therefore, here in Yangfeng, you can also see a large number of Qing soldiers walking on the reed-rich sandbank, and downstream you can vaguely see the pontoon bridge across the river, which is just a line. On the south bank in the direction of Bailuji, you can see the Qing cavalry who have not yet crossed the bridge, and some Mongolian cavalry. They are also waiting on the shore. As for Dorgon, who has already crossed the river, it is estimated that they have already crossed the river by this time. Leaving Hankou.

Yang Feng then put on his diving mask and picked up his high-tech equipment...

Underwater propeller.

Electric.

He didn't expect that he was just looking for something useful in the cornucopia, so he just took out this one. He even wondered if this cornucopia was being manipulated?
Of course, he was just thinking about it casually.

Wearing a diving mask, he grabbed the underwater propeller and rushed straight to the pontoon in front at a speed of about five kilometers per hour. When he was about to enter the sight of the Qing army, he immediately dived underwater. However, based on the sand content of the Yangtze River, he could not see Not that much, not to mention it’s still night. Fortunately, it’s also night...

There is the light of Qing military torches.

Soon the light and the voice were very close.

"boom!"

The underwater propeller suddenly hit something.

Immediately afterwards, voices came from above, and they were still cursing.

He turned off the thruster with satisfaction, and then suddenly stuck his head out...

In front of him was a stunned face.

"Why, you haven't seen a water ghost before?"

Wearing a diving mask, he shouted on the river at night.

Qing Jun, who was looking down at him, was stunned for a moment.

"Ghost!"

A scream followed.

The Qing troops who had also stopped before and after all looked at Yang Feng in amazement. This monster with a fiery red face and horns on its head was completely beyond their understanding. They just stared at Yang Feng in stunned silence. Climbing out of the water, he opened his mask and smiled at them...

"Run quickly, it's the monster."

The Qing army was even more afraid.

Then the Qing troops in front of him turned around in confusion.

But they were on a bridge, and even if there was only room for one person, it was still a very narrow bridge. Especially the ones at the back didn't know what was going on in front of them. The ones in the front turned around, the ones in the back moved forward, and the ones in the middle were cursing and asking, But in the chaos no one bothered to explain. In the midst of their crowding and chaos, Yang Feng calmly stepped forward and grabbed a Qing soldier. As the latter screamed in terror, he ripped him off his horse and threw him to the river. Because he couldn't swim, this The guy can only float in the water...

Of course, it soon stopped floating.

Yang Feng moved forward leisurely, constantly grabbing the Qing troops in front, and then threw them directly into the Yangtze River.

The Qing troops behind who were facing the other side finally reacted and took out various weapons and aimed them at Yang Feng's back. However, the latter quickly squeezed into the horse and then continued forward, knocking the Qing soldiers off their horses. Pull it down and throw it into the Yangtze River...
