Zhu Hesheng took advantage of the fact that his cheap father Zhu Jushan had not yet come out of the trapped capital of Guiyu, and carried out a "marriage robbery by order" in Jieyang City to snatch Da Bo Ling back as his wife.
On a big bird boat on the Beixi Pier of Rongjiang River outside Jieyang County, several people were secretly discussing the matter of "forcing someone to be king"...
What they want to do to "force a man to be king" is really "forcing". It is not just a pre-arranged plan to put on a yellow robe and then usurp the throne. After all, there is no good position that can be usurped by people who are jumping around in Chaozhou Prefecture.
Don't look at it. Zhu Hesheng achieved an "epic" victory this time, and also developed many powerful "gold finger" weapons. But compared to the entire Qing Dynasty, the situation in Chaozhou is really not worth mentioning!
"Military advisor, there are at most four counties: Jieyang, Chaoyang, Chenghai, and Huilai... It's a bit too hasty to establish a supervisory state in just four counties?"
The person who raised the objection was Zhu Hesheng's father-in-law Hui Qiu Hui. He had just heard from Chen Yonghua and Liu Guoxuan about the plan to "define the king and supervise the country" and was immediately shocked.
The pot of the third prince of the Ming Dynasty is already heavy enough! Let’s talk about the supervision of the country again... What is the supervision of the country? It’s the agent Long Live the Lord!
And this acting Long Live Lord has to be worthy of a copycat imperial court... He has to be worthy of any great scholar, any of the Six Ministries and Nine Ministers, some Chief of Ceremony, and some of the Jin Yiwei of the East Factory and the West Factory!
If there is such a commotion, it will not be clear that they want to compete with the Qing Dynasty for the world. This is using the power of four counties to fight against the whole country!
Oh, it's not the power of four counties, but the power of half a county. Because Chaoyang County and Chenghai County have always been Qiu Hui's territory. And Chen Yonghua and Liu Guoxuan just proposed to bring Hui to the county - the Yanping Palace sent people and guns and equipment this time. It was a lot of work and they couldn't go back empty-handed! It is reasonable to take Huilai County.
In other words, the father and son Zhu San, Prince Zhu and Grandson Zhu San, who took charge of the Ming Dynasty's copycat court, can only actually control half of Jieyang County - because the western part of Jieyang County is centered on Mianhu Village, and there is an imperial envoy there. Minister, the third prince Zhu and the third grandson Zhu have limited strength and cannot defeat them in a short while.
Fighting against the world with half a county... This looks like seeking death!
Qiu Hui is not a reckless man without political acumen. Of course he knows that Chen Yonghua and Liu Guoxuan have no particularly good intentions.
"Big brother," Liu Guoxuan said to him when Big Brother Hui said nothing, "This is what the king wants!"
The great king is Zheng Jing, the king of Yanping.
Qiu Hui was a fan of Zheng Chenggong, the previous generation king of Yanping, and of course he listened to Zheng Jing's words.
Chen Yonghua sighed and said: "The king has carried it all by himself for so many years. He has been lamenting day and night and thinking exhaustively. He is already showing signs of premature aging at such a young age. His body is incomparable to that of King Zhu and Cannon Zhu... . All of my ministers will be sad when they see you. Boss, think about the late king who died of hard work when he was only in his thirties, and the king is already ninety-nine years old this year!"
"this......"
Qiu Hui was right!
Zheng Jing's life in the past few years has been so difficult that he is almost dying of it. He can no longer be allowed to bear the great burden of the Ming Dynasty.
And the bandit father and son, Tian Wang Zhu and Hu Pao Zhu, are famously strong. Wouldn't it be nice to let them carry this 10,000-jin cauldron?
Liu Guoxuan saw that Qiu Hui was tempted, and quickly added fuel to the fire, and said: "Boss... I came back from the front line. Although I didn't catch the big scene of Artillery Zhu's battle with Liu Jinzhong, I still caught up with the cleaning of the battlefield. What a great victory! What an unprecedented victory!
Three hundred men defeated four thousand men, and three hundred men attacked and four thousand defended. In the end, not only did he win the battle, but he also captured hundreds of them alive! To be honest, you can't win this battle even if you revive the late king! "
Of course Zheng Chenggong couldn't do it. If he was so good at fighting, wouldn't he have won the Northern Expedition to Nanjing?
The Zheng family started out as sea pirates, and their naval combat skills were considered top-notch in East Asia, but land combat was indeed not very good.
Liu Jinzhong's army was inherited from Yongweiying and Huang Degong, and its combat effectiveness has always been strong. When he followed Geng Jimao, he was like a pillar. Even if the serious Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers faced his army, it would be impossible for him to use three hundred people to suppress his four thousand people with a violent hammer, right?
Chen Yonghua said: "If we promote the third prince Zhu and the third grandson Zhu to serve as supervisors, and then allocate half of Jieyang County to them, they should be able to pull out two to three thousand elite soldiers. With the skills of the third grandson, with two to three thousand It’s easy for elite soldiers to resist 30,000 Qing soldiers, so that we can take a breather at the back.”
"Although the military advisor's words are good..." Qiu Hui has been persuaded by Chen Yonghua and Liu Guoxuan, because he is also under great pressure. He has not had a peaceful sleep for many years, and he has to act grand in front of everyone. Man, living such a life makes one feel miserable!
"But," Qiu Hui said again, "Heavenly King Zhu and Cannon Zhu may not know the principle of shooting the first bird, but their military advisor Zhuge Sanhe is very cunning and will not be fooled!"
Chen Yonghua waved his hands and said with a smile: "This matter is easy to handle...Soldiers need to be fast, and the yellow robe has to be fast. Before the artillery cannons can enter the city, we will start at the reception pavilion outside the city gate, and have a fight With the cup as the trumpet and the yellow robe on his body, let us all support Zhu Qiang, the artillery gun, to the position of superintendent of the country!"
"Okay, let's do it!"
...
There were people in Jieyang City who were busy robbing people, and people outside Jieyang City who were busy making plans to "break a cup as a nickname and wear a yellow robe as a badge of honor." However, Fengmingshan and Liu Erhu, the two dog officials, had been running day and night since they left Jieyang County! After running for almost ten hours, almost killing all the horses running around me, I finally arrived at Mianhu Walled City on the south bank of the Nanxi River in the Rongjiang River on the morning of the second day after the loss of Jieyang County.
At this time, the palace of the imperial envoys in Mianhu Walled City was already in chaos. Mi Sihan, the imperial envoys, had already received reports from Deng Guangming, Yan Ziming and others. The content of the reports was similar. It was that Liu Jinzhong's headquarters was in Jieyang. The county town has been defeated, and Jieyang County town has been controlled by rebels!
Moreover, the Nanxi Bridge south of Jieyang County has also fallen into the hands of the rebels, so Qiu Hui's navy can now move west along the Nanxi River until they reach Mianhu Village.
In this case, not to mention that the reinforcements cannot be fought, and even the siege cannot be carried out... Even Chaozhou Fucheng may be captured by Prince Zhu San and his gang of rebels!
This time the trouble has really gone a bit too far!
Shang Zhixin, who had previously wandered to Danan Mountain to suppress the bandits, had now returned to Mianhu Village with a thousand cavalry to aid him, and was now in high spirits making suggestions to Mi Sihan.
"Imperial envoy, the capital of Chaozhou looks like it is hanging! The most important thing now is to protect Mianhu Village... If Mianhu Village is not protected, then the area east of Danan Mountain and Guiren Mountain will probably be destroyed by Prince Zhu San It’s been swept away!”
Mi Sihan was so angry after hearing what Shang Zhixin said!
This Shang Zhixin has elite soldiers from Prince Pingnan's Mansion, and he is just watching the fun, showing how important he is to raising the bandits!
The most hateful thing is that he also exposed the "Chongzhen Edict"... It's hard to say whether he will force Wu Sangui to rebel!
Now he comes to Mianhu Village to make sarcastic remarks! It's a pity that this dynasty does not have a Shangfang sword that can kill first and then show off...
Just when Mi Sihan wished he could kill Shang Zhixin with one sword, someone suddenly came to report from outside the door, saying that Fengmingshan, who knew Chaozhou Prefecture, was here.
"Quick, quick, send him in!"
Mi Sihan quickly asked someone to call Fengming Mountain in - no matter whether he wanted to read Fengming Mountain in the future, but the most important thing right now was to figure out the situation.
How did the Jieyang County seat get lost? You must ask clearly!
However, Mi Sihan never expected that Fengmingshan's first words when he ran in would leave him stunned.
"Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy... Beixi Bridge in Jieyang County probably fell due to a surprise attack by the henchmen of the old thief Ao Bai. There were even rumors on the battlefield that Ao Bai himself came to Jieyang and voted for Zhu San. Prince!"
Mi Sihan, Shang Zhixin, and Chao Hui Jiabing Beidao Wang Deping, who was sitting in the corner like a clay sculpture, all exclaimed when they heard Feng Mingshan's words.
"What did you say?"
"You're talking nonsense..."
"Obai is dead!"
Feng Mingshan spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy, my father-in-law, Wang Daotai, what Beizi said were battlefield rumors... However, Beizi did see that the knights dressed as soldiers of the Three Hundred and Eight Banners were extremely brave, and the three of them were A hundred men defeated Liu Zongrong's 3,000 green battalion troops and were completely defeated!
By the way, Liu Jinzhong's godson Liu Erhu is here with Beizhi. He has fought with suspected members of Obai's party. You can ask him. "
