Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 126: admiral

The general of the Qing army who led the troops to surround the mountain was Wu Jinzhong, the commander-in-chief of the lower right wing of the Pingnan domain, whom Zhou Shixiang wanted to strip alive. The military king Guangtai was born.

Wang Guangtai, his elder brother Wang Guangen, and his younger brother Wang Chang joined Li Zicheng's peasant army in the early years. Wang Guangen was nicknamed Guan Suo in the rebel army and was quite famous. In the 14th year of Chongzhen, Wang Guangen and his two younger brothers were recruited by Xu Qiyuan, the governor of Xunyang of the Ming Dynasty, and the peasant army was reorganized into an official army to stick to Yunyang. situation in the Yang region.

In the first year of Hongguang, when the Qing army Azige went south to pursue the Dashun army to Yunyang, Wang Guangen and Xu Qiyuan, the governor of Yunyang of the Ming Dynasty, surrendered to Azige. After the surrender of the Qing Dynasty, Wang Guangen was appointed as the chief soldier of Xiangyang, while Wu Jinzhong, who was under Wang Guangtai at the time, was just a small chief.

In the third year of Shunzhi, Wang Guangen had a conflict with Pan Shiliang, the governor of Yunyang appointed by the Qing court, and was framed by Pan Shiliang and arrested and moved to Beijing. The brothers Wang Guangtai and Wang Chang saw that the situation was not going well, so they attacked first, leading 8,000 soldiers and horses to fight against the Qing Dynasty, killing the acting chief officer Yang Wenfu, and patrolling the Jingnan Road Gan Wenkui, the prefect of Xiangyang Yang Kuang, the push official Li Shifa, Xiangyang officials appointed by the Qing court, including Pan Chaoyou, the magistrate of Xiangyang. After the rebellion against the Qing Dynasty, Wang Guangtai sent Wu Jinzhong to Hunan to report the news to the supervisor He Tengjiao.

When the Yongli court heard that the brothers of the two kings were in trouble in Yunyang, the dynasty rejoiced. Wu Jinzhong, who went to Hunan as an envoy to contact the supervisor He Tengjiao, also got the green eye of He Tengjiao, and personally invited the deputy general of the right camp for him.

After the Qing court learned that the two brothers Wang Guangtai and Wang Chang had surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, they immediately released Wang Guangen in an attempt to save the situation in Yunyang. After learning that Wang Guangtai and Wang Chang had accepted the appointment of Nanming, they executed Wang Guangen, and immediately dispatched Sun Ding, the admiral of Huguang, to Liao's horse. 5,600 infantrymen rushed from Wuchang to Yunyang to suppress the rebellion. Sun Bu was attacked and killed by Wang Chang's ambulance when he entered Anyangkou, forty miles away from Yunyang. Sun Dingliao was caught off guard and was defeated and fled.

The news of Sun Dingliao's defeat reached Beijing, and Dorgon, the regent of the Qing court, immediately ordered Kakamu, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, to lead 3,000 people from the Manchu and Han troops to the south to suppress the two kings. The first-class united troops to suppress together. Knowing that the Qing court had sent soldiers from Manchuria, as well as Zhang Yingxiang, the general army of Henan, and Gao Di, the general army of Kaigui, Wang Guangtai knew that his troops could not fight the enemy, so he withdrew from Yunyang City, and was appointed as Youying before he left. Wu Jinzhong, the assistant vice-general, led his men to burn Yunyang City to the flames.

Wang Guangtai's commander-in-chief Li Shiying, as the forward of the two kings, led his troops to Shaanxi to join the local anti-Qing armed forces. Unfortunately, after being defeated by the Qing army and unable to go to Shaanxi, Wang Guangtai and Wang Chang discussed and led the remaining 4,000 people to retreat to the Kuidong area, together with Li Laiheng, Liu Tichun, Yuan Zongdi, Hao Yaoqi, He Zhen, etc. The troops fought together and became one of the "thirteen schools of Kuidong" later.

Just as the two brothers were retreating to the Kuidong area, Wu Jinzhong suddenly led his troops to turn around and returned to Yunyang. After Wang Guangtai heard the news, he hurriedly sent an envoy to Wu to stop them. After killing the messenger, Wu Jinzhong did not dare to stop for a moment. Xingye went straight to Yunyang to surrender to the Qing army. Wu Jinzhong, who was in the Qing Dynasty again, got Kakamu Xinzhong, not only did not take his part, but let him be the deputy general of Yunxiang.

In the sixth year of Shunzhi, Wang Deren, Jin Shengheng, Li Chengdong and others in the south raised their flags against the Qing Dynasty one after another. The Qing army lost several provinces in a row, and the troops everywhere were also tight, so the Qing court summoned Shang Kexi and Geng Zhongming from the east of Liaoning to lead the old troops of the family to enter the customs and go south. When the two kings traveled to Hubei, Wu Jinzhong was tall and tall. With a long beard on his face, he has the style of an ancient general, and he can still be happy to see it. Knowing that its troops were originally a peasant army, and their combat power was stronger than that of the Green Battalion, which was adapted from the original Ming Dynasty army, they deliberately called them into their command.

However, the Qing court has already customized Shang Fan's troops to go south, and they are not allowed to recruit privately, especially not to recruit generals from the Green Battalion, let alone hide them. At the beginning, as long as Wu Jinzhong obeyed the orders of the vassal, he was not included in the flag.

After that, the two vassals of Ping and Jing commanded Guangdong and fought hundreds of large and small battles. When attacking Guangzhou, Wu Jinzhong even asked his eighteen warriors to be the pioneers of entering the city. He tricked the gate of Guangzhou into the city at night, and made great contributions to the Qing army's entry into the city. With this credit, Wu Jinyi's status under Shang Fan continued to rise. Although he never joined the Lan Han army flag, he could command the flag soldiers to fight, and his official rank was also promoted to the right wing commander. In Guangzhou City, in addition to the flag soldiers directly under the two kings, the governor's pacesetters in the Governor's House, and Wu Jinzhong, the nominal right-wing commander of the rest of the troops and horses, can be commanded.

Li Dingguo attacked Xinhui for the second time, and the two vassals of Ping and Jing successively sent troops to defend the city. Wu Jinzhong knew that his identity was no better than that of You Yunlong, the Han flag sergeant~www.wuxiaspot.com~, so he asked You Yunlong for instructions regardless of the size of the defense affairs.

However, in the actual process of defending the city, Wu Jinzhong played a crucial role. Because he was a peasant army, he knew very well how Li Dingguo, who was also a peasant army, was attacking the city. He used his experience to resolve the crisis in Xinhui City several times. He even led the dead out of the city several times to repel Li Dingguo's troops and successfully defended Xinhui City with You Yunlong.

After Yunlong was assassinated by Zhou Shixiang, Wu Jinzhong took over the defense of Xinhui, and the Han army flag and the green camp in the city were all promoted by him. It is said that Shang Kexi, the king of Pingnan, had the heart to ask the Qing court to ask Wu Jinzhong to be the admiral of Guangdong. If this appointment can be approved by the Qing court , Wu Jinzhong will be able to become the important post of Guangdong Admiral that Li Chengdong dreamed of becoming.

With the rise of official position, Wu Jinzhong's hands were also stained with the blood of his compatriots. He not only acted as the vanguard of the Qing army's entry into Guangdong, but also worked very hard in several massacres caused by the Qing army in Guangdong. Difficult to read. During Xinhui's defense of the city, Wu Jinzhong's troops were the first to capture people for food. It was Wu Jinzhong's troops who rushed into Zhou Shixiang's house that day to capture his parents, wife and children.

As the main general, Yu Yunlong deserves to die, and Wu Jinzhong, the direct murderer of the tragic death of his parents, wife and children, deserves to die even more. From the moment he thought of Wu Jinzhong, Zhou Shixiang swears that this person should not die well, to comfort his parents, wife and children in the spirit of heaven. (To be continued..)
