Han’s Son is Not a Slave

"The lord of the country and the West Palace were both outstanding men at the time, and their troops and horses were all the elites of our Great Western Army. In the past, it was the two kings who fought against the Qing Dynasty, but now they are fighting against each other. The enemy is quick!"

"The subordinate thought that the army of Xifu would abandon Guangdong and Guangxi and go straight to Guizhou, rushing out of the emperor before the lord, and the lord would also pour out a large army to fight against the emperor in order to prevent the emperor from falling into the hands of Xifu. If this is the case, then Hunan will be the Qing army. Occupied, the Qing army in Guangdong and Guangxi no longer has any scruples, and the current situation of our army is like a small boat running through the wind and waves. In the face of the violent storm and waves of the Qing army, there is nowhere to hide, nowhere to fight, and the boat will be destroyed at any time.

"Where should our army go, I would like to ask Qianhu to make a decision as soon as possible, or there will be no way out later!"

Qi Hao analyzed the situation in Nanming after the infighting between Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo with his vision as a former chief soldier and his familiarity with Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo. Obviously, after knowing that Li Dingguo and Sun wanted to face internal strife, and that Li Dingguo's army would never make a third eastward move, Qi Hao had lost hope for the Taiping army trapped in Xinhui, otherwise he would not have euphemistically raised the opinion of breaking through and escaping.

The generals of the Taiping Army in the hall fell into silence when they heard the words. They each considered what Qi Hao said, but most of them had a gloomy expression on their faces. Obviously, they thought that if they really broke through, how many people in the entire army would be able to escape from the encirclement of the Qing army. Get away.

Song Xianggong saw that the morale of the generals was low, and he couldn't help but said: "Why does President Qi think that Li Dingguo will abandon Guangdong and Guangxi and go straight to Guizhou, and he will definitely go to Yongli with Sun Kewang?" He belonged to the line of Dongxun and Li Chengdong back then, so Qi Hao did not have the same respect for Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang as Qi Hao did.

Before waiting for Qi Hao to answer, the green camp surrendered. Li Fuguo, who is now testing a hundred households for the Taiping Army, disdainfully said: "The Yongli of Anlong Mansion is called the Son of Heaven, but he is actually a puppet. At that time, the Son of Heaven had princes, and the princes knew that there was a Son of Heaven, but today the Son of Heaven cannot order himself. Is this emperor worth going to snatch?"

This is really disrespectful, and the Taiping Army is also under the banner of Nanming. The upper and lower should also be the Ming army, but after Li Fuguo said the words that did not take the emperor in his eyes, more than half of the generals in the hall nodded in agreement, which made Qi Hao's brows suddenly wrinkled. He didn't know that Li Fuguo was the general manager of the Green Battalion, and most of the officers of the Taiping Army in the hall were either bandits or the Green Battalion. There wasn't a single serious military attache from the Ming Dynasty. How much respect can the past emperor have?

Zhou Shixiang said lightly: "The emperor is useless, but the servants can command the princes by relying on the emperor." He paused for a while. He shook his head again and said, "Li Dingguo doesn't have to rely on the emperor to command the princes, but Sun Kewang is a firm believer in relying on the emperor. Otherwise, why would the emperor only be trapped in Anlong and not take Guiyang, and why should he be the lord of the country and never see the emperor. Yes. Now that Li Dingguo is here, I'm afraid Sun Kewang thinks that the sooner the emperor dies, the better."

Zhou Shixiang's disrespect to the Emperor Yongli, Li Dingguo, and Sun Kewang also made Qi Hao dissatisfied. Although he was willing to live in the Taiping Army as a small general banner, he was the general soldier of the Daxi Army in the past, and he was even awarded the title of Emperor Yongli. , although Li Dingguo alienated him. But after all, he is the adopted son of Emperor Daxi, King Anxi, who was proclaimed by Emperor Ming; likewise, Sun Kewang is also the adopted son of Emperor Daxi. It is also the one-word Prince Jin who was personally proclaimed by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. In this way, he has great respect for the three of them, even if Sun Kewang is dissatisfied with him, Li Dingguo is alienated from him, and Yongli does not know him at all, but it does not affect his love for him. respect for the three. Now, the object of his service treats the person he respects in this way, and his heart is inevitably unhappy. But he is old after all. Seeing that none of the Taiping army generals in the hall had a strange expression on their faces, this Taiping army took the Xinhui with a single force. And under the siege of the Qing army, he insisted on not surrendering, on integrity. Everyone in the hall has nothing to lose, and then think that the lord he respects is killing each other with the West Palace in order to compete for the emperor, and now most of the unpleasant goes away, and the rest of the slight dissatisfaction can only be held in the bottom of my heart, and I can't show it in front of everyone. exposed.

Zhou Shixiang Xu realized that his words had an impact on Qi Hao, so he turned his head and asked him, "King Anxi led his army to attack Guangdong twice, what did he want to do?" During the speech, the three words Li Dingguo had been replaced by The honorific title of King Anxi.

Zhou Shixiang's changes made Qi Hao's face a lot lighter. He didn't think much about it, and said, "Why did Xifu lead the army to attack Guangdong? I don't know much about the subordinates, but I heard from colleagues in the army that Xifu intends to join Xiamen Zheng. The east and west are combined with the south of Guangdong, and the two armies will jointly recover Guangdong, and we will consider the issue of relocation after controlling Guangdong Province."

After hearing this, Zhou Shi thought about it. The Yongli court was established in Zhaoqing, Guangdong, but it was stationed in Guangxi for a long time because Guangdong fell into the hands of the Qing army. Now it has moved to Anlongfu, Guizhou. and he succeeded in capturing Guangdong, then it is really possible for him to move the Yongli court to Guangdong~www.wuxiahere.com~ In that case, Sun Ke, who is in Guiyang and actually controls Guizhou, Yunnan, and Hunan, is expected to have great influence on Guangdong. The Yongli court is beyond the reach of the whip, and Yongli can really turn the salted fish into a real emperor. It's just that it's hard to say whether Zheng Chenggong will be the same as Li Dingguo, who will be the master of Yongli. The fierce struggle between the Nanming factions is beyond the imagination of the world. You can sing the emperors and I will sing. Compared with Wanli, Taichang, Tianqi in those days , Chongzhen four dynasties staged for decades, the party struggle is even more serious, to say where Nanming died, I am afraid that this factional struggle will account for most of it. In fact, most of what Zheng Chenggong has done in history is attributed to the warlords who support their troops and respect themselves, rather than the many loyal ministers and righteous men.

Thinking of this, Zhou Shixiang could only sigh to himself. After all, this matter has not been completed. It is useless to speculate more. What matters now is how the domestic strife between Sun Kewang and Li Ding will affect the situation in Guangdong, and how much will it affect the Taiping army who are trapped in Xinhui. He said to the crowd: "King Anxi had good intentions, but unfortunately the two attacks on Guangdong were defeated one after another, and the original plan naturally could not be realized. And Sun Kewang was eyeing the emperor, Anxi had to rely on the strength of his headquarters to venture into Anlong and take the emperor. He and the court were snatched from Sun Kewang's rule, so as to call the world in the name of the emperor. Although the troops and horses are out of reach and the territory is out of reach, it may not have the strength to fight against Sun Kewang. Unfortunately, our Anxi Prince did not expect that he This departure is a pain for us soldiers and horses who are still supporting and vowing to fight the Qing army to the end! To put it in an ugly way, the King of Anxi will abandon all of us when he leaves!" (To be continued)
