Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 406: What to do in Guangdong

In the Dongnuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace, Prince An Yuele, Prince Jian Jidu, King Duoni of Xinjun, King Ledu of Minjun, Beiler Shangshan, Minister of the Household Book Cheke, Mongolian Gushan Erzhenming Andali, and Minister of the Interior Aobai , Suksaha, Ebilon, Sonny, Dasu, Minister of War Itu, Minister of Personnel Durma and other ministers kneeling on the ground discussing government affairs in Beijing. At the university at home, Shi Ningwan, Fan Wencheng and I were also urgently called into the palace by someone sent by the palace.

"Chaozhou Wu Liuqi reported that all the Manchu soldiers below Hahamu and Galai Daoga died for the country, and King Shang Kexi of Pingnan committed suicide after the city of Guangzhou was destroyed. After investigation, Geng Jimao and the generals under the vassal, Song Rui, the general soldier of Yingde , Sun Yi, deputy general of the South, and Hu Qili, the deputy general of Guangdong, and the following 168 generals will be surrendered to the Taiping Army ten days ago.”

"It is reported that the governor Li Ruitai was captured, and his life and death are unknown now. Another southern Jiangxi soldier, Kong Guozhi, died in battle, and Zhaoqing's general Xu Erxian was killed by the rebel army. The army occupied Huizhou. The same is true of Huizhou. Hu Qili called himself the general soldier of Huizhou in the Ming Dynasty. He led his troops to push Chaoshan a few days ago. Fortunately, he was repelled by Wu Liuqi and his troops.

The Minister of War, Itu, did not dare to say any more. He looked up at Shunzhi and found that the latter's face was already ashen.

"What's the name of the city, tell me." Although Shunzhi's voice was not loud, it sounded frightening.

Itu hesitated, then gritted his teeth and said, "The Taiping army has been in Mancheng for three days!"

"Bah!"

A blue-and-white porcelain bowl was smashed under the steps by the furious Shunzhi, and a shattered magnetic piece jumped to the right side of Belle Duryou's face. Du Eryou didn't dare to wipe it with his hands, so he knelt there without moving.

"A prince died, a prince was surrendered, a Manchu general was smashed, and a governor was arrested, and the whole city was slaughtered! It's ridiculous, ridiculous! How did the battle in Guangdong go! You tell me , how did they fight the battle in Guangdong!"

Shunzhi laughed angrily. The hoarse laughter echoed in the pavilion and in the ears of the princes and ministers, making them all startled.

None of the princes and ministers thought that such a big change would take place in Guangdong, and the loss of the Qing Dynasty was even more serious than that of Li Dingguo's two famous kings. It's nothing more than the prince who broke the Han people. But what is terrifying is that none of the Manchu soldiers stationed in Guangdong survived, and the tens of thousands of women and children of the eight banners in Manchuria were slaughtered by the Taiping Army! This made the Manchu princes and ministers who had only slaughtered Han Chinese cities terrified and could not accept this sudden bad news, which was even more terrifying than when they heard that Prince Nikan died in battle.

"Emperor calm down!"

Prince An Yue Le led all the princes and ministers to kowtow together.

"Quiet your anger? How do you tell me to calm my anger? Back then, Li Dingguo only beheaded one of my princes and forced me to kill one of my vassal kings. But my Manchurian Erlang didn't tell him to be beaten and wiped out! It's good now, there are more than 2,000 Manchurians. Erlang is gone! How can you let me calm down!"

The young emperor really made this bad news extremely angry and angry. He could never forget the disappointment on Marfa's face when he heard the news.

Haha Mu **** it, Shang Kexi **** it, Geng Jimao **** it, Li Suotai **** it!

Damn them, they make me lose face! They let my Marfa down!

Shunzhi was full of anger in his heart, and he just wanted to roar and vent his anger, but he knew he couldn't do it. He was no longer the little emperor who was scared to make peace with Nanming when he heard that Prince Nikan told Li Dingguo to kill him. He has grown up, he has also matured, roaring and venting will not help, and timidity is not what his emperor should behave. Now what he has to do is how to deal with the situation of Guangdong falling.

"You said, what to do!"

Shunzhi's eyes that wanted to eat people swept under the jade steps fiercely.

Ji Du's face was extremely distorted, and he suddenly raised his head and shouted: "Your Majesty, I have long said that the Han people cannot be trusted, and they cannot be entrusted with great responsibilities. They are all sloppy and unreliable! But the emperor won't listen. If you have to reuse the Han people, it's okay now. Come on, the Han army and Han officials in Guangdong have surrendered so suddenly, even Geng Jimao, the Han vassal king, has surrendered! Therefore, the minister thought that the top priority must be to investigate the Han army immediately. Let our Manchu and Mongolian officials take over the Han army, so that this kind of thing will not happen again! "

Beller Shangshan has always been against the re-use of Han officials, and he said angrily when Ji Du said: "Prince Jane is right, the Han people are unreliable, and we have to send our son-in-law to take over the Han army, or we will drop another batch. This situation I can't handle it!"

"It's time to investigate the Han army and the green camp. If someone hadn't betrayed them, how would the Taiping army know that my troops were marching in Manchuria, and how would they set up an ambush!"

"It must be that Geng Jimao and the Taiping Army colluded long ago, and this caused the situation in Guangdong to collapse!"

"Geng Jimao is not a good bird, and the people from Green Camp are not a good bird!"

""

The Manchu princes and ministers who had been clamoring to take the power of Han officials in their early days were like chicken blood. You said something to me, and you want to take this matter to take the power of Han officials. , and there were even those who wanted to quit the Green Camp, which made Ning Wanwo and Fan Wencheng, the two Han officials who were the first to serve in the Qing Dynasty, pale in horror.

Shunzhi was also stunned. He didn't expect Ji Du, the bastard, to bring the matter to the Han officials. Did he want to eliminate all the Han officials in the world?

Yue Le listened to these people's words becoming more and more outrageous, and then saw that Shunzhi was so angry that he couldn't speak, and could not help but said angrily: "Now it is not to investigate whether Geng Jimao betrayed our Manchu soldiers, nor to discuss whether the Han army is acceptable or not. The letter, but how to deal with the situation of Guangdong's fall!"

Itu reacted and hurriedly said: "Prince An, Guangdong has not yet fallen, Chaozhou and Shaozhou are still in our hands."

Mongolian Ezhenming Andali, who has not spoken, is also the official of the Military Department, he said: "Zhaoqing Deputy General Tang Sanshui 800 li has been sent to make a rush, he led his troops back to Shaozhou in time to block the Taiping Army, and is now rushing to repair Shaozhou. The city wall will not allow the Taiping army to go north from Shaozhou."

Yue Le said without thinking: "Promote Tang Sanshui, call him chief soldier, give him all the money from Shaozhou, let him recruit troops, and block the Taiping army no matter what, and never let them enter Shaozhou. Hunan!"

Duoni, the king of Xinjun, was not very old, but he was not as confused as Jidu. He also said, "Give Wu Liuqi a promotion, call him the Admiral of Guangdong, and control Tang Sanshui. In a word, give him all of Guangdong, if he can recover it. In Guangzhou, the court gave him the title of king, and Geng Jimao's King of Jingnan asked him to do it!"

"You are asking the Han people to feed the **** soup. So many Han officials in Guangdong have surrendered the Taiping Army, and you still have to reuse the Han people!"

As soon as Ji Du's anger came out, Yue Le and Duny were determined to go against him!

"Wu Liuqi didn't come down, and Tang Sanshui didn't come down either!" Yue Le stared at Ji Du angrily. He shouted: "If the Han people are not credible, Chaozhou and Shaozhou would have returned to the Ming Dynasty!"

Duny couldn't be more angry than this group of people were blind. He snorted: "Prince Jane has all Han officials, whoever works for us, whoever works for us! If you don't say anything else, let's talk about Guangdong. Wu Liuqi and Tang Sanshui are enough, what about Chaozhou and Shaozhou? Are you going to turn these two loyal Han officials into rebellion! Even if they don't turn against them, you'll just have to kill them. Who will stand in the way of Taiping for us? Jun, is Prince Jane going by himself!"

"you!"

Ji Du gritted his teeth, this kid Duny has really eaten the guts of a leopard, how dare he be so unreasonable to him!

Belleduryou, who has always been obsessed with Jidu, did not support Jidu at this meeting, but interjected: "With Wu Liuqi and Tang Sanshui, I'm afraid that they won't be able to defend Chaozhou and Shaozhou, so they have to transfer troops!"

"Where did it come from?" Shang Shan was a little dissatisfied that Du Eryou didn't help, and instead said that it was about military affairs.

Du Eryou said without thinking, "I want Hong Chengchou to transfer troops from Hunan to Guangdong!" As he spoke. The blood on his face is still bleeding.

"No! The soldiers in Hunan have to deal with the Ming army in Yungui, how can they be transferred to Guangdong!" It was the minister of the interior, Ebilong, who was the most noble of the ministers, and his father's forehead was also Emperor Taizu. The first of the five ministers set up during the Jianyuan period. Ebilong is the sixteenth son of Eyidu, and his mother is the daughter of Nurhaci, Princess Heshuo. His family is most trusted by the royal family. He has five sisters-in-law who are princesses, and one sister who is the Yuan concubine of Emperor Taizong.

Ebilong is not too old, but due to his relationship with the royal family, his seniority is not low. He doesn't like to talk on weekdays, and rarely has his own opinions when it comes to things. He has been silent for a long time since the discussion. But when he heard that Du Eryou wanted Hong Chengchou to transfer troops to attack Guangdong, he hurriedly objected.

"Guangdong Ming army is only a minor problem. As long as Chaozhou and Shaozhou are in our hands, Guangdong Ming army can't go north. In addition, Guangxi is also in the hands of online Guoan. They can't get in touch with the Yongli court in Kunming. But it's just a circle in one place. But now if you send troops from Hunan to Guangdong, you will lose watermelon for sesame seeds!"

The Minister of the Interior Suksaha also disagreed with the transfer of troops from Hunan to Guangdong. He said: "Hong Chengchou has been sparse. The information he got shows that Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo are fighting in Qujing, Yunnan. In order to deploy in Yunnan, Wu Sangui and Li Guoying have already entered Sichuan. As long as Sun Li decides the outcome, they will go straight to Guizhou and go to Yunnan. If troops are suddenly transferred from Hunan to Guangdong, then the original three-way approach to Yunnan will only be possible. All the way from Sichuan, how to fight this?"

"If you don't take advantage of Sun Li's internal strife to defeat Nan Ming in one fell swoop, wouldn't you tell Zhu Youlang to catch his breath and beat him again?" Sony said in a sullen voice.

Shang Shan sneered: "Hong Chengchou's three-way approach to Yunnan is now gone!"

"The Guangdong route is not the main force. The soldiers from Sichuan and Hunan are the main force. Without the Guangdong route, there is nothing to worry about. As long as Guangxi is in our hands, the Guangdong side is all lost and it does not matter, not to mention Chaozhou and Shaozhou. It's still in our hands! If it really doesn't work, let Xian Guoan go to Guangdong!" Aobai, who was already irritable, said a word.

"How many soldiers can Xian Guoan have? It's not bad if he can keep Guangxi. Where does he have soldiers to fight Guangdong? If he goes to Guangdong, Guangxi doesn't want it?" Shang Shan ignored Ao Bai and went straight to Shunzhi: "Your Majesty, now the only There are troops in Hunan, and Hong Chengchou is not allowed to send troops. Could it be impossible to let the Taiping army sit in Guangdong? What if Shaozhou can’t stop the Taiping army, what if they enter Hunan? At that time, Hong Chengchou will not have to send troops to fight!”

The question raised by Shang Shan is very realistic. If the Tang Sanshui in Shaozhou cannot stop the Taiping army and ask the Ming army of Guangdong to come out from Shaozhou, it will inevitably threaten the Qing army in the Hunan battlefield, and Hong Chengchou will not be able to adjust it at that time. The soldiers attacked the Ming army that emerged from the left wing. If the Ming army from Guangdong is not resolved, the Qing army in the Hunan battlefield will not be able to enter Yunnan with peace of mind.

The inner ministers were stumped by the question of Shang Shan, and they all stopped talking, because no one could guarantee that Shaozhou would not be captured by the Taiping army, just as no one would have thought that the Taiping army could occupy Guangzhou.

"According to the old minister, Hong Chengchou's soldiers cannot be adjusted. My confidant in the Qing Dynasty is the Yongli Xiao. Court of Yungui. As long as Zhu Youlang is solved, the remaining soldiers and horses of Nanming will not be a concern." Fan Wencheng finally spoke. , but did not support the transfer of troops from Hunan to Guangdong.

Fan Wencheng opened his mouth, Ning finished I stopped watching, coughed and said, "The old minister thought that whether to transfer troops from Hunan to Guangdong should listen to the opinions of Hong Chengchou, the economics of the five provinces, after all, he has a better grasp of the situation in Hunan than we do. More, you should listen to his opinion on the deployment of troops."

This is an old and prudent opinion. The Qing troops in the Hunan battlefield are all under the command of Hong Chengchou~www.NovelMTL.com~ and are mainly green battalions. Hong Chengchou has been deployed in Hunan for many years against Yunnan and Guizhou. sloppy. It is certainly right to listen to the opinions of the frontline commander at this juncture.

The two Han officials opened their mouths, and the hall turned cold.

After a long time, Shunzhi suddenly said: "Jidu, you go to Fujian to bring troops into Chaozhou, and the affairs of Guangdong are yours."

As soon as this statement came out, the princes and ministers were all shocked, and Ji Du was even more caught off guard, and hurriedly said: "The minister has already ordered to go to Fujian to pacify the pirates, how can he go to Guangdong?"

"The previous imperial decree is invalid, and I have re-written it. You are still the general of Dingyuan, but instead of going to Fujian to pacify the pirates, go to Guangdong to pacify the Taiping Army!"

"My minister goes to Guangdong, what should I do in Fujian?" Ji Du did not expect that Shunzhi would be so playful, anxious and angry.

Shunzhi gave him a cold look and drank, "Da Su!"

"The slave is here!"

Dasu, the commander of the army and the minister of the interior, rushed forward to answer.

"I grant you the title of General Annan, and go to Fujian to pacify the pirates!"

"The slave obeys the order!"

Da Su received the decree without saying a word, which made Shunzhi feel relieved. After all, he was his own servant, and he used it successfully.

The imperial decree of granting relief to General Dingyuan was issued in the morning, and it is a bit of a joke to invalidate it now. It stands to reason that the ministers should swarm them now, and they must persuade Shunzhi to withdraw the order. But the ministers looked at Shunzhi with a calm face, but no one dared to speak.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Shunzhi's eyes were no longer as terrifying as before, but Jidu was sweating on his forehead. After hesitating for a while, he finally accepted the order unwillingly.
