Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 646

"First division, go forward!"

"Third division, line up!"

"Swing the cannon!"

This night was really a sleepless night. The roar of soldiers and horses and the gushing torches awakened the sweet dreams of Ying Tianren.The Jinling tiger occupies the land of the dragon, the scene of the prosperous sky, but the eternal curse is also entangled endlessly. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, this place was bloodbathed again and again in the military chaos. The Nanliang Houjing Rebellion almost killed all Yingtian people. , The Yuan Dynasty Mie Song was once again stained with blood in this place of fireworks, and the battle of Jingnan did not let go of this pearl. It seems that today, another disaster of swords and soldiers is about to befall this royal place.

Song Qingshu didn't even have the mind to be afraid anymore, his heart was completely filled with anger. Standing at the forefront of the army, Song Qingshu roared angrily, commanded, and personally assigned each team to the siege site.

He couldn't help but not be angry. Since the fall of the capital in March, he has put all his heart and soul into this court, improving taxation, and planning Jiangfang. In six months, the begging army didn't take a cent of the imperial court. When he was drunk, Song Qingshu also posted countless silver to repair the city defense, relieve the victims, and even in order to maintain the integrity of the court and fight against the aggressive northern slaves, Song Qingshu compromised countless times.

But this situation, which was created with great painstaking effort, was torn apart abruptly by this group of selfish bastards who flaunted a gentleman's face.

Song Qingshu has been mobilizing troops since last night, and now the entire Yingtian City has been completely taken over by the Qihuo army. The cannons surrounding the palace are pointing at the palace wall with murderous intent, and a big battle is imminent.

With a big knife on his back, Liu Zongmin stood in front of the army excitedly and kept yelling. He, a rough man, had already been furious with a group of Donglin guys, and he wished he could shoot the palace right away.However, Sun Chuanting, Gu Yanwu and other core aides stayed in Song Qingshu's temporary shogunate with serious expressions on their faces.

After all, this is the feudal era, and it is still necessary to overcome some psychological obstacles to shoot at the emperor.

However, no one dared to persuade, no matter Tian Cheng, Gao Hongtu, Qian Qianyi, or even the emperor Zhu Yousong, had completely violated Song Qingshu's bottom line, and the conflict between the two sides was inevitable.

On the top of the palace wall, the imperial guards no longer had the vigor of last night. Facing the muzzle of the gun, they ran back and forth nervously. , I can't see any fighting spirit.Amidst the tense smell of gunpowder, this bloody conflict seems to be on the verge of breaking out.

But at this moment, Zhou Yuji hurried into the shogunate with an ugly face, and knelt heavily on the ground with one knee.

"Marshal, emergency military report, Yangzhou governor Shi Kefa has assembled the elites of the three towns, and has assembled from Guazhou to collect warships to attack our Jingkou! And Shi Kefa also issued a call to arms, saying that Zuo Liangyu in Wuchang is also rectifying the boat division, and he must work hard , go down the river and go straight to Jinling!"

"Marshal, an urgent report from the internal line. Zheng Cai, Zheng Hongkui and others under the command of Governor He Tengjiao of Zhejiang Province are also unclear. We have received news from the internal line of the Zheng family that Zheng Zhilong seems to have delivered some supplies to He Tengjiao!"

It really was blooming everywhere, following Zhou Yuji in, Li Xiangjun, who was holding the book, brought another bad news. In a short time, almost all the affiliated forces of the Ming Empire went to war with him!Hearing the news, the faces of Sun Chuanting, Gu Yanwu and other staff became more severe, and Song Qingshu's own face also twitched.

But no surprises.

If it weren't for the backing of someone behind him, Tian Chengqian Qianyi wouldn't have dared to do evil things to him, but what Song Qingshu didn't expect was that just for such a small profit, for such a small amount that originally belonged to the country, However, these hidden lands occupied by self-interest, these Jiangnan noble landlords are so crazy.

Don't they know that the seemingly mighty empire is now so weak that it looks like a bubble, and it will burst with a poke?The time that was finally bought was consumed by the civil war, and the empire will experience further weakening. Once the slaves go south, let alone the hidden land, these bastards will not even have the original privileges, wealth, life, and even be a dignified man. There are no chances, and I can only drag the ugly braids that represent ignorance, and be a slave of a foreign race. Don't they understand the truth that there will be eggs under the nest?

The muscles on his face twitched violently. A few seconds later, Song Qingshu sat back with his face still ashen, and pulled out the command arrow from the table again.

"Send an order to Shi Lang, the fleet blockades Zhenjiang, and those broken ships of Shi Kefa dare to cross the heart of the river, and they are all sunk by this commander. Go bastard! Eight hundred miles rush to Deputy Commander Xia, Governor Fu, and let them guard Anqing, Jiujiang, and Zuojiang. Even if Liangyu is a long worm, he won't allow him to get in!"

"Mr. Zhou! Fire the Forbidden Palace immediately. Before sunset today, I want the heads of those bastards like Tian Cheng and Gao Hongtu!"

Mencius said: Although there are tens of millions of people, I have passed away!Even if the whole of Jiangnan is against him, so many times Song Qingshu has fought a bloody way in the siege, this time he is still afraid of a group of defeated soldiers who have been defeated for years and guard hoes who have not been on the battlefield for hundreds of years, what do you think? war?Alright, I will accompany you to the end!However, anyone can start a war, but the right to end the war is only given to the victors. This time, Song Qingshu has no intention of giving up unless he kills everyone.

The top priority is indeed to take back Emperor Hongguang. The two words of orthodoxy are worth hundreds of thousands of troops. With Hongguang in hand, even if Shi Kefa and Zuo Liangyu are aggressive, Song Qingshu can confidently call him a traitor and a traitor. In order to suppress the army of thieves, they also knew this. Sun Chuanting, Zhou Yuji and others who were hesitant just now also gave orders in a gloomy and orderly manner, and they were about to leave the shogunate in a hurry.

A big battle is about to kick off!

Who knew, with this effort, there was another shout and so on!The grim atmosphere was disturbed, and then, a crazy old man hurriedly squeezed in, the anger on his face was just revealed, and then Song Qingshu showed helplessness again, stood up and hugged his fists.

"Mr. Zhou, what advice do you have?"

Zhou Yanru, a treacherous minister, was considered selfish and a master of party struggle before, and even this old guy had the audacity to falsely report his military exploits, to have fun in Tongzhou, but to fool Emperor Chongzhen around. However, if he hadn't warned him last night , Song Qingshu is really in danger, even if he breaks out of the palace, he will suffer heavy losses, and the whole situation will fall into a passive state.

What's more, Song Qingshu still treats him a little bit politely without understanding the old guy's plan.

Who knew that old guy Zhou Yanru was really like a lunatic, he laughed and waved his hands heavily regardless of the surprised eyes of those staff and generals who were about to walk away.

"Don't dare to see the teaching! Don't dare to see the teaching! The old man came to ask for a reward. Last night, the old man was considered to have saved the commander-in-chief. It is not too much to ask the commander-in-chief for a reward, right?"

At this juncture, Song Qingshu almost didn't spit it out when he came to ask for something. Sun Chuanting and the others showed disdain in their astonishment, and turned around to leave. At this time, they didn't have the heart to argue with him. Picking up his saber, he said to Li Xiangjun without turning his head.

"Approve a note to ask the internal accountant to transfer 10 taels of money to Mr. Zhou, which is my thank you gift!"

"That marshal, I don't want money, I want Daling Farm, twenty miles east of Xiongyi, Taiwan! I want that place!"

These words made Song Qingshu pause again, this person is getting more and more brain problems, right?Song Qingshu knew that the largest farm in Taiwan was only 1 mu. Overseas land prices were much cheaper than those in the Central Plains. No, is he showing off his head?
But after thinking about it, Zhou Yanru is an old fox, and what he did must not be so idiotic, especially Qian Qianyi, Gao Hongtu and the others set up an ambush. Be sure to warn yourself in advance that he must still have old disciples and influence in Jiangnan. If Qian Qianyi and Zuo Liangyu are defeated, you may have to continue to rely on him for help. Scholars like to beat around the bush. Will you want to tell yourself something again?

Figured this out, Song Qingshu had no choice but to hold back his temper, and asked respectfully, "Why does Mr. Zhou insist on a manor, and why does Mr. Zhou know about the Taiwan government?"

"People's desires are subject to change? I used to be an official in the court, and I was very ambitious. I just wanted to climb up and become a powerful minister like Yan Song and Zhang Juzheng! As a result..."

Suddenly, with a pitiful smile, Zhou Yanru shook his worn cloak sleeves, sighed to the north, then shook his head again and again with emotion.

"The first time he came to power by stepping on Yuan Chonghuan's head, and within a few months, the smug old man was stepped down by Wen Tirenna, the old bastard. The second time he took over, he took over the dilapidated and dilapidated Daming At that time, the old man was like sitting on the crater, and his biggest wish was to come down."

"Then it was the establishment of slaves and entering the customs. I had no soldiers and no pay in my hands. I really didn't dare to fight. In the end, the late emperor confiscated the old man's house in a fit of anger. At that time, the greatest wish of the old man was to save this old life!"

"In the end, I was lucky. Shanxi was breached, and I escaped in the chaos. I met the commander-in-chief's buddy and recruited refugees to reclaim wasteland in Taiwan. Perhaps the commander-in-chief didn't know that the old man went to Taiwan by boat. Daling Manor has been working as an accountant for more than a year. However, the inspector on his head is always making trouble for the old man, reconciling accounts every day, so the biggest desire of the old man, this Daling Manor, how old would it be? it is good!"

Zhou Yanru's old life is really legendary this week. The north is in chaos, and he escaped to Taiwan by himself, but what he said is really nonsense. The current war is imminent, how can Song Qingshu care to listen to him? alive, what do you want?
Obviously seeing the impatient expression on Song Qingshu's face, Zhou Yanru is a veteran at observing words and deeds this time, so he immediately stopped those foreshadowing, and gave Song Qingshu another big fist.

"It's enough for an old man to house his children and grandchildren, but Marshal, what is your greatest desire now?"
