Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 1138 Jiang Xiang Anyway Part [-]

Jiang Xiang suddenly became angry, making the hall suddenly silent, Ning Wan I deprived him of his power directly, and stayed in Datong to monitor him to send troops, which made Jiang Xiang very annoyed.

Of course he knew that if Ning Wan and I were like this, he must have been instructed by Dorgon, and if he refused to order, it would be tantamount to disobeying the naming of the Qing court.

In fact, at the end of last year, after the Qing army defeated Moxi Mongolia and the Ming army in Xuzhou, Dorgon deliberately attacked him. If it weren't for the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty, the main force of the Qing army was transferred to Xuzhou and Luoyang. So they forced him to go to Beijing to be an official.

What should come will always come, Jiang Xiang restrained the anger in his heart, and said slowly: "That man, do you really think I dare not touch him?"

The generals listened to what he said, that they wanted to kill Ning Wan me, and many generals immediately showed horror on their faces, and the general Yang Zhenwei was a little dazed, and worried: "Junmen, now we have to deal with Ning Futai. Let's take a shot, take some risks!"

Many generals in the hall also looked melancholy. After all, the Qing court is now in full swing, and civil strife broke out in the Ming Dynasty. Killing Ning Wanme at this time is tantamount to rebellion.

If the Ming Dynasty fell into long-term internal strife and could not support them, then they would seek death if they raised troops.

Jiang Xiang understood what Yang Zhenwei meant, and it was precisely because he knew this that he didn't contradict Ning Wan me just now.

Historically, the reason why Jiang Xiang rebelled anyway was that on the one hand, he was dissatisfied with the Qing court's meanness and lack of kindness; At the climax of Bo's anti-Qing war, Jin Shenghuan and Li Chengdong turned their backs one after another, and the Zhongzhen Camp counterattacked Huguang, which made him feel that great things could be accomplished.

Especially the third one, the anti-Qing upsurge in the south, coupled with the Manchu-Han policy and the excessive expropriation of Shanxi, made him feel that the Manchus were unpopular and unable to stand in the Central Plains for a long time, so he launched the anti-Qing uprising.

Now that the first few items are met, the key is the third item. The civil strife in the Ming Dynasty at this time made him unable to make up his mind.

Because after hearing Yang Zhenwei's words, Jiang Xiang's anger was suppressed abruptly, and the rebellion against the Manchu Qing would cost his head.

For a while, Jiang Xiang couldn't vent his anger, making Jiang Xiang's face turn purple.

At this moment, Jiang Lin, Jiang Xiang's elder brother, suddenly walked into the hall and whispered something in Jiang Xiang's ear.

Jiang Xiang's expression changed when he heard this, and a trace of joy leaked out. He glanced at the many generals in the hall, and waved his hands quickly, "There is light left, and the others retreat first. There is also the matter just now, no one is allowed to spread it!" "

Hearing the words, many generals got up to leave one after another. Yang Zhenwei walked outside the lobby, looked back, and then left under the greeting of his colleagues.

After everyone left, Jiang Xiang turned to Jiang Lin and said, "Where are you? Please come in!"

"I've come in through the back door, I'll invite you right away." Jiang Lin said something, and left in a hurry.

Not long after, a tall and tall man dressed in a Taoist uniform, preparing a war burden and a sword, and wearing a bamboo hat, was invited into the hall.The man stood in the center and took off his hat, revealing a head wrapped in a turban and a face with sharp sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, exuding a heroic aura from all over his body.

"Jiang Junmen!" The man smiled and cupped his hands.

Jiang Xiang was overjoyed to see the man, and quickly returned the salute: "Chief rudder, you've counted!"

Jiang Youguang hurriedly followed and saluted, Jiang Xiang hurriedly asked Hu Weizong to sit down, and when he sat down, he put the bamboo hat aside, and asked impatiently, "Chief Rudder, what's going on in the south?"

Since the beginning of the year, Jiang Xiang has sensed that the Qing court might move him, so he has been actively contacting Wang Yan through the Tiandihui, hoping that if he fights with the Qing army, the Ming Dynasty can give him support.

Originally the contact had been made properly, Wang Yan gave him an affirmative answer, hoping that he could bear it, but if forced to start an incident earlier, the Ming Dynasty would definitely give him enough support.

It's just that the Ming Dynasty's sudden infighting made Jiang Xiang hesitate, not sure whether Wang Yan's promise to him could still be fulfilled, and whether the Ming Dynasty was still able to support him.

It was precisely because of this worry that Hu Weizong, who had been active in Shanxi, was entrusted by Jiang Xiang to contact the south to find out the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty and prepare to help Wang Yan put down the turmoil.

"Jiang Junmen, don't worry, King Chu has captured King Tang and defeated King Lu. It can be said that the overall situation is settled!" Hu Weizong said with a smile.

"It's so good! It's so good..." After Jiang Xiang heard this, she was also sincerely happy for Wang Yan.

Seeing Jiang Xiang nodding repeatedly, Hu Weizong asked, "Jiang Junmen, after I entered the city just now, I saw the flag soldiers of the Han Armor holding the red flag. What's going on?"

"That's Ning Wan, my guard, who only arrived in Datong yesterday, and today they forced us to pay food and send troops!" Jiang Youguang interjected angrily.

Hu Weizong frowned, and looked at Jiang Xiang, "Did the army agree?"

"Ning Wan, I hold the official position myself, and I am an official sent by the Qing court. I don't discuss with me at all. It is completely in the tone of an order! He has already gone to Geng stew to collect grain and grass, and forced me to mobilize 2 people to go south within five days. Participate in the war." Jiang Xiang said bitterly, with a murderous look in his eyes.

After hearing this, Hu Weizong said without any hesitation: "The troops of the military sect must not transfer out of Datong, kill Ning Wan me directly, and then return to the Ming Dynasty anyway!"

Jiang Xiang was hesitant all the time. Hearing what Hu Weizong said, he couldn't help being a little taken aback, but he calmed down a little, thinking about Hu Weizong's intentions.

He was thinking about something, but Hu Weizong instigated him as soon as he came up, which made him hesitate.

Jiang Xiang was silent for a while, and asked tentatively: "I am in trouble now, can His Highness the King of Chu give me support? Is the rebellion within the Ming Dynasty really coming to an end?"

"This is what His Royal Highness the King of Chu means. His Royal Highness the King of Chu hopes that the military sect will start an incident and stop the Qing army from going south!" Jiang Xiang is a smart man, and Hu Weizong didn't hide it. He paused, then looked at Jiang Xiang and said, "If If there is an incident at the military gate, His Royal Highness the King of Chu can quickly rectify the interior, and then launch the Northern Expedition to join the army gate in the Central Plains."

Jiang Xiang quickly understood what Hu Weizong meant, that is to say, Wang Yan needed him to contain the Manchus from going south, so that he would have time to clean up the opposition forces within the Ming Dynasty before he could support him.

"If this is the case, once I start an incident, wouldn't I attract all the Qing troops on the front line to Shanxi!" Jiang Xiang immediately shook her head and said, "This is not possible..."

Hu Weizong said: "The military sect can rest assured that once there is an incident in the military sect, although the king of Chu cannot immediately send troops to the north, he can put pressure on the front line and prevent the Man Qing from recalling all the troops. The pressure on the military sect is not great. What's more, the imperial court's army is also on the front line, and it won't take much time to wait for the supplies to arrive and the interior to be stable."

Seeing that Jiang Xiang was hesitant, Hu Weizong immediately continued: "If the military sect waits until the court is ready to revolt, it will be just icing on the cake, and there is not much credit for it. If the military sect revolts now, it will solve the predicament of the king of Chu, and at this time The governor of Shanxi came to the door, and the main force of the Qing army is at the front again, and the troops in Shanxi and Beizhi are empty. This is a great contribution from God to the army!"

Having said that, Jiang Xiang couldn't help but feel a little tempted. If the King of Chu won the political struggle in the Ming Dynasty, then the King of Chu would have the final say in Daming from now on. He helped the King of Chu hold back the Qing army. It's easy for Ting to be an official.

The main force of the Qing army is now on the front line. He can attack Taiyuan to control the Three Jins in the south, and attack Xuanfu in the west to threaten Beijing. It can be said that danger and opportunity coexist.

Seeing that Jiang Xiang was moved, Hu Weizong immediately continued: "Besides, after Ning Wan, I gave the Junmen a five-day deadline. If the Junmen doesn't send troops to go south, they will turn against him. Instead, the Qing court will attack the Junmen first. If the military gate does not turn back at this time, when will we wait?"

Jiang Youguang on the side had already been persuaded, but Jiang Xiang had to make up his mind about this kind of thing, so he could only blushed, looked at Jiang Xiang from the side, and clenched his fists anxiously.

Jiang Xiang's face also became excited. Anyway, he could not follow Ning Wan's order and send troops to the south, and he resisted Ning Wan's order, which means he resisted the meaning of the Qing court. The Qing court would definitely start to suppress him. Then he will fall into a passive position instead, it is better to preemptively strike now.

"Okay! Damn it!" Jiang Xiang blushed and punched the table, "Go and call all your cronies!"
