Chapter 1592
"Guo Gong, is this news really confirmed?"
Ruan Dacheng brows tightly knit: "Bing Feng of rebels, is it really so arrogant?!"
Xu Hongji coughed and said, "Ma Shiying, Liu Zeqing, Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zhaoji, Mou Wenshou, etc. are all lessons learned from the past. Don't Mr. Ruan still understand at this time?"
Xu Hongji The people mentioned are all civil and military officials of the Ming court who died in the battle of Fengyang in the central capital. Ma Shiying was the governor of Fengyang, and Liu Zeqing and others were all commanders of the town. And their enemies are just trifling more than 10,000 people. With dignified upright soldiers, crushed like a hot knife through butter, the army of nearly 100,000 troops in the prefectures along the canal line was almost completely destroyed.
Even Shi Kefa was almost killed.
Sure enough, when Xu Hongji mentioned this matter, Shi Kefa, who was in the hall, suddenly turned a burst of green and a burst of red. The big defeat, the loss, really embarrassed Shi Kefa.
"But..." Zhang Shenyan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Rebels can defeat Ma Shiying and others, but Jiannu is not like Liu Zeqing."
These words are interesting. .
Everyone here understands that the army of the Great Ming Dynasty is all paper. The previous wars with Donglu all ended in defeat. The so-called several great victories are nothing but a fig leaf. For example, in Yuan Chonghuan's great victory, I heard that Nurhaci was killed with a cannon, but the body was not recovered. Who knows? Killing a hundred or ten people can be called a great victory, but compared to the losses of one's own side, this record is completely negligible.
Earlier Ying Yi was in the capital, Chongzhen abdicated and destroyed the Ming Dynasty, and I heard that Ying Yi was going to fight against the Donglu. This should be celebrated by all the old ministers. Not bad, just to suffer from both sides, these old ministers can jump out of the situation.
But no one expected the ending.
Rebels are powerful, but in their minds, they are probably even worse than the eastern captives who have been raging for many years.
However, Donglu is also a paper paste.
How can you jump out now? !
"This is the end of the matter, also what is there to say." Gao Hongtu said: "Duke Wei Country, all my colleagues, the rebels forced the emperor to abdicate, it is a big rebellion, and God will not tolerate it. I am Xingyi Shi, I am afraid that he will come. !"
"Scholar's words." Ruan Dacheng snort disdainfully: "Isn't it better that you have the ability to let God kill Ying Yi?"
Gao Hongtu immediately blushed. I was about to reorganize, but I heard Ruan Dacheng say: "The rebels are fierce, and now they have defeated the Tartars, and there is no external trouble. They occupy the north of the Dajiang River, and they are ready! But the plan for now is not to discuss how to send troops to conquer him, but to discuss how to attack him. Be prepared for him to send troops across the river to attack!"
Ruan Dacheng is a man with a deep mind and is very good at power, but he is not without talent. As soon as he said this, many people couldn't help but nod their heads in agreement.
The enemy's strength has been established, I am weak, and the initiative is in the hands of the enemy, not theirs. Taking the initiative to attack is delusion, and the battle of Fengyang is the front car. The best way now is to build a line of defense with the help of the Dajiang natural danger, resist the enemy's attack, and then slowly plan it.
"What Mr. Ruan said is very true."
Xu Hongji sighed: "But now I know that this is the case. However, the river is in danger and still needs to be guarded by a navy. You are aware of the situation, and it is useless."
"Fujian Naval Commander Zheng Zhilong is useable!" Shi Kefa suddenly said.
Xu Hongji twisted his beard pondered then said: "Zheng Zhilong is indeed useful. But I am afraid that this person is not easy to get along with. When Xiong Tingbi was there, and when Xiong Tingbi was there, he had a good relationship with Zheng Zhilong, and the Imperial Court could try his best to appease this person. However, this person has always listened to the tune and did not listen to the propaganda, how to make him come with the army and willingly resist the rebels?!"
Ruan Dacheng expressed moved, saying: "The current situation is now, no matter how difficult it is to turn around, it is better to cut off one's means of retreat. Then Zheng Zhilong is also an ambitious person, and he was a pirate. He has no morality, only interests can move his heart. You might as well appoint him as the governor of Fujian, the governor of all military and political affairs in Fujian."
"No!" Shi Kefa refuted: "Master Ruan's move is just nurturing a tiger to invite calamity. Giving Fujian to Zheng Zhilong, one is inconsistent with national laws, and the other is how can Master Ruan predict that Zheng Zhilong will not be the second one. Rebel!?"
"Confused!"
Ruan Dacheng said: "So far, you also have a good solution? Could it be that you still have to bring troops to Fengyang to fight the traitor? A game?!"
Shi Kefa was so angry that he had to show off.
Ruan Dacheng added: "I can't predict whether Zheng Zhilong will be the second traitor, but he is not now. Ying Yi is the most important enemy, because Zheng Zhilong may be the most important enemy. Rebel, you don't need him, or who will resist the Xia thief?! Are you giving up food because of choking?!" He said to Xu Hongji: "In the past, the overlord cutting off one's means of retreat can defeat the violent Qin. Today, I gave up Fujian to gain a chance to breathe, but that's okay!"
Xu Hongji thought and nodded slowly: "Okay." set.
Shi Kefa and other pedantic people have no choice but to accept it.
Xu Hongji said: "We will send people to Fujian later." Then he added: "The rebels have defeated the Tartars and the general trend has been achieved. If you and I have to resist them, King Fu must have a place to settle them. , so that the name is justified. I would like to persuade King Fu to enter the throne, to become emperor, to inherit the great power of Hongwu, to rule over the prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River, and to unite as one to fight against rebels." , there must be an understanding. If you continue to argue, it will be too late when the north calls.
All the old ministers know it well, and there is nothing more to say about hearing this, and they all reluctantly agree with it.
So it was decided to choose a day to invite Zhu Yousong, the King of Fortune, to sacrifice to the Xiaoling Mausoleum, and then ascended the throne and proclaimed the emperor, inheriting the great command of Hongwu.
It was negotiated here, and it was also about money, grain and materials. All of the old ministers of Yingtian have great careers, but the small Imperial Court that is about to be established is poor.
Have to contribute forcefully, have money to contribute money, and put up the shelf as soon as possible.
This seems to be quite fruitful, but after the old ministers dispersed, when they turned their backs to others, they all looked very heavy.
Is Zheng Zhilong worth it? Can you stop Ying Yi? !
Is King Fu a Ming Lord? Can you be wise? !
Can everyone be united? Can the force be condensed?
All questions.
Chongzhen announced the demise of Ming Dynasty and pushed Zhu Yousong to the top, which was actually untenable in legal terms. It's just to borrow the last trace of Ming Ting's shadow.
Is there any hope for these declining Western Mountains?
Reflecting history, the situation today is roughly obvious at a glance. That Ying Yi is probably about to fulfill his rhetoric of various Xia's strengths.
More than a thousand years ago, on the eve of the battle between Cao Mengde and Yuan Shao at Guandu, many of his subordinates, Xianwu, had private letters to Yuan Shao. And at this time, is it not a reincarnation? !
To lure Zheng Zhilong, push Zhu Yousong to the top, and pay for food, all of which cannot cover up the decline. After this day, secretly, I don't know how many people did a few small actions.
——There were many ferries on the ferry in Jiangnan to Jiangbei.
——golden flower The Zheng Family, a gentleman, is like a city in Yemen.
And the Zheng Family's ancestral home in golden flower has only one old servant, just a few healthy women. Even so, I don't know how many people came to visit and left many gifts and various letters.
