I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 28: The messenger arrives

In Nanjing, Hong Chengchou's case table was filled with reports about Wu Changqing.

From the time Wu Changqing launched his army in Jiading to the current occupation of Suzhou, there are basically records of what he did during the period.

Looking at the information, Hong Chengchou was also surprised.

A sixteen-year-old boy relied on hundreds of Xiangyong to rise up. In just over a month, he grew to thousands of people and captured the city of Suzhou.

And in this process, he has won many times with less and the strong with the weak, demonstrating his excellent training talent.

From the intelligence point of view, Wu Changqing is a military genius, who can achieve great victories in almost every battle. Moreover, he was very good at bewitching people's hearts, not only won the love and support of the people, but even Wu Shengzhao, a veteran of the Qing army, chose to surrender.

Hong Chengchou really wants to use this kind of talent for his own use.

But he knew that this was impossible, and Wu Changqing was a staunch anti-Qing activist. Such people can only send heavy soldiers to encircle and suppress, there is no other way.

His strategy in Jiangnan was to give priority to caress and to suppress it as a supplement.

On the one hand, taxation was reduced for the people, and on the other hand, a large number of former Ming officials were retained to alleviate the contradictions between the officials of the Manchu and Jiangnan people.

This trick was very effective, and a large number of Ming army generals and civilian officials surrendered.

Had it not been for Dorgon's order to shave his hair, Jiangnan and other places had completely accepted the rule of the Qing army.

Unfortunately, because of Dorgon's haircutting order, the petty gains Hong Chengchou gave were no longer effective, and many people took the lead.

Hong Chengchou had never been merciful when dealing with those rebels. He also participated in the massacre, and it could even be said that it was his order.

He wanted to use this method to deter the people, and then cooperate with other policies that benefited the people to break down the people's antipathy and fighting spirit.

Hong Chengchou's strategy was extremely successful in history. After the Three Massacres in Jiading, the people didn't dare to turn back. Coupled with the reduction of taxes, many people slowly accepted the rule of the Qing court.

Hong Chengchou did an excellent job in stabilizing the south, and he was also very talented. He became the first Han prime minister in the Qing Dynasty as a Han.

Now Hong Chengchou has replaced Duoduo, Dorgon's younger brother, in Nanjing, and is in charge of all government affairs in the south of the Yangtze River.

In short, Hong Chengchou's personal ability is very strong and his vision is very precise.

For those who can persuade surrender, he can surrender quickly. For those who cannot surrender, he will brutally suppress them.

In Hong Chengchou's view, Wu Changqing is a firm-willed person who cannot surrender.

He will resolutely wipe out such steadfast anti-Qing activists.

"Come on, I'm going to Dorobelle House for discussion."

In terms of government affairs, Hong Chengchou has the final say. But when it comes to large-scale military operations, he still needs the peace of Nantah General Dorobel Aisinjue Baile Kedhun to discuss.

Luck Dehun is the grandson of Zhenghongqi Daishan. When Huang Taiji and Dorgon fought for the throne, he stood in the wrong team to support Dorgon and was deprived of his royal status.

However, after the death of Huang Taiji, Dorgon is now in power. In order to let others know that he will not treat people with him badly, Dorgon restored his royal status and entrusted him with important tasks to become Pingnan University. General.

At present, the Eight Banners soldiers in the Jiangnan area are all led by him, and he is the number one military leader of the Manchus in Jiangnan.

On October 3rd, Qiu Zhaojin, the envoy of King Lu, came to Suzhou.

They originally went to Jiading, but after arriving in Jiading, they were told that Wu Changqing had taken Suzhou, which shocked Qiu Zhaojin.

They originally thought that Wu Changqing would be able to kill thousands of Qing troops. They never expected that Wu Changqing would be able to take down such an important town as Suzhou.

The successive defeats of the Ming army have caused the people and officials of Nanming to feel that Nanming's army is very useless and that the Qing army is very powerful.

Even if Wu Changqing captured Suzhou, Qiu Zhaojin felt incredible.

The surprise came too soon. On the one hand, Qiu Zhaojin immediately reported the news to King Lu, on the other hand, he hurried to Suzhou.

A general who has occupied Suzhou, holds thousands of soldiers, and can win the battle, is really worthy of winning.

The award specifications previously confessed by King Lu did not reflect King Lu's attention, and the specifications must be improved to be worthy of Wu Changqing's current status.

During his busy schedule, Wu Changqing took the time to meet with Qiu Zhaojin. After all, he was the messenger of King Lu, and the respect he should have on the surface was still necessary. He was still a courtier of Daming in name.

"General Wu is really a young hero."

Looking at Wu Changqing, Qiu Zhaojin first praised him.

"Mr. Qiu is absurdly praised." Wu Changqing said lightly.

"This is not absurd. After learning about the general's deeds, King Lu was full of praise for the general, saying that the general was a loyal and righteous person of Daming and a model of the world. This time King Lu sent me to commend the general's presence in Wusong. A righteous act against the Qing Dynasty."

"Wait a minute, why is it that King Lu commends King Tang instead of King Tang? As far as I know, the King of Tang is now the main service in the south and the Longwu court."

Wu Changqing interrupted him.

In fact, whether it was King Lu or King Tang, he was unwilling to be loyal.

As a traverser, he does not have the foolish and loyal thinking of contemporary people. If it were not for worrying that his subordinates would not be able to accept it, he would like to stand on his own now.

In his opinion, neither King Lu nor King Tang had the ability to save this troubled world.

King Lu was evacuated by his general Fang Dingguo and others. King Tang was evacuated by Zheng Zhilong's family. In the future, Emperor Yongli, King Gui, would also be evacuated by Sun Kewang.

In fact, the current Zhu family really doesn't work anymore. Everyone treats them as the master, just for the sake of a superficial name, in order to attract those old ministers who care about Daming to come and take refuge.

Allegiance to these wastes is undoubtedly the brain kicked by the donkey, Wu Changqing thinks that his brain has not been kicked by the donkey.

Of course, now Wu Changqing cannot openly and directly stand on his own. That is undoubtedly a rebellion. He also has to be the same as those in power, ostensibly loyal to the Daming of the Zhu family first.

When you have enough power in the future, everything will come naturally.

Even if he doesn't want to be the emperor when the time comes, his men will add yellow robe to him. The reason is also very simple, let Wu Changqing be the emperor, his subordinates all have the merit of being a dragon.

This kind of credit can be mixed with a throne or a knighthood.

But if Wu Changqing accepts Zhu's award as improper emperor, then Wu Changqing's highest award is a king with a different surname. As for the subordinates who followed him, it is naturally impossible to award more rewards than Wu Changqing, and they need to drop one or two levels.

Even for his own benefit, Wu Changqing's men will force him to ascend to the throne and proclaim emperor. This is human nature.
