Chapter 287 Kangxi, Xiao Jingzhong also wants to be emperor!

Henan Province, Nanyang Prefecture, and Xinye County are full of slavery!

On the official road, the sound of horseshoes rumbled like thunder. Hundreds of cavalry in yellow jackets, surrounded by Emperor Kangxi of the Ninth Five-Year Plan of the Qing Dynasty, and dozens of ministers who accompanied the army, walked in the middle of the marching team.

In front of and behind them, there are countless yellow, white, red, blue, green and other five-color flags, tumbling in the wind, and endless cavalry infantry follow.The soldiers of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty finally arrived near Xiangyang Mansion.

Now following Emperor Kangxi are mainly [-] coated slave soldiers who followed all the way from Beijing.The military uniforms and flags used by these coated slave soldiers are no different from the authentic Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers.They are all eight-color cloth masks and banners of yellow, yellow, white, white, red, red, blue, and blue.

The Eight Banners-coated soldiers were divided into four battalions: Vanguard Battalion, Firearms Battalion, Xiaoqi Battalion, and Guard Battalion. The flag is coated with the collar", and the subordinates are in charge of the coated slave soldiers sent from the same flag.

The 1 Banner-coated slave soldiers following Emperor Kangxi were organized into four battalions of 5000 or 1 each.Among them, the Qianfeng Battalion and the Guardian Battalion both have [-] people, and the Firearms Battalion and the Xiaoqi Battalion have twice as many people, both of which are [-] people.

In addition, the vanguard battalion and the guard battalion are all cavalry.The Firearms Battalion and the Xiaoqi Battalion are a mixture of infantry and cavalry. Although their names are Firearms Battalion and Xiaoqi Battalion, their equipment is basically the same.

The Firearms Battalion also has cavalry, and the Xiaoqi Battalion also has artillery, shotgunners, and pikemen. The two battalions have almost the same organization, and they are all composed of artillery, infantry, and cavalry.However, this synthesis is not at the level of the camp, but at the lower level of the leader.

Zhuobutai, Fuquan, Mingzhu, and Guarja Bahai transferred from Ningguta served as the ministers in charge of the Xiaoqi Battalion, the Firearms Battalion, the Guard Battalion, and the Vanguard Battalion respectively.

In addition to these 1 coated slave soldiers, Emperor Kangxi also dispatched 200 green battalion soldiers who had been "slaved" from five provinces including Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, Shandong, and Zhili. More than 700 bannermen and more than 20.00 coated minions. The "minion rate" has reached [-]%!

These 20.00 green battalion soldiers with a "slave rate" as high as [-]% are now also incorporated into the coated slave army, called the "coated army green flag battalion", and Wang Fuchen is the minister of the green flag battalion.

In other words, there are a total of [-] people in the coated slave army following Kangxi, all of whom are good slaves of the Qing Dynasty who "have been slaves", "have been coated" and "wanted to be coated", good coated and good slave.

Yan Baoyi from the Fanjia Manor outside the customs is a good coat at the level of "already coated".

By the way, because he was relatively strong and came from the sect of the "No. [-] Coating in the Qing Dynasty", he was incorporated into the Coating Guard Army Battalion and became a coated cavalry guarding Emperor Kangxi.

Now riding a horse, walking behind Emperor Kangxi and a group of ministers... What an incomparable honor!

On a sun-tanned face, there is a happy smile... This coated slave is so happy!

Some are happy, others are worried.

Among the [-] coated slaves, Wang Shirong was undoubtedly the one with the most melancholy mood.He entered Beijing as the master of Wang Fuchen, and after Wang Fuchen became the minister in charge of the Baoyi Green Banner Camp, he was also given the status of the Eight Banners Han Army, which was still the Yellow Banner.Became one of the enviable "slaves".

Now Wang Shirong, who was riding in the Green Banner Army, could feel envious eyes shot at him from time to time——the servant of the Yellow Banner Han Army!This is the top grade among slaves, how could it not be envied by the slave soldiers in the Baoyi Green Flag camp who are not even coated?

And Wang Shirong can still feel that this kind of envy is completely from the heart...

What worried him even more was Wang Fuchen's attitude.

Wang Fuchen is very powerful now, the Minister of Internal Affairs, the Minister of Affairs of the Coated Slave Army, the Minister of the Imperial Palace, and even bestowed the title of Bravery on Batulu.A true minister!

He is like this, what kind of rebellion is he going to create?

What Wu Sangui can give him, Kangxi has already given it in place!

Wang Shirong was worrying that Wang Fuchen was addicted to being a slave when suddenly there was a rush of hoofbeats. He looked up quickly and saw Wang Fuchen in a yellow jacket leading a dozen cavalry from the Green Banner Battalion galloping towards him. There is also a middle-aged man in official uniform, who looks a little strange.

This Wang Fuchen's Green Riding Battalion was the vanguard of the entire army, walking in the forefront of the [-] slave army, and was responsible for standing in front of Emperor Kangxi.He had brought a team of cavalry to Fancheng to meet Leerjin, Tuhai, Dong E, Eza, Jieshu and others who were welcoming him.

Why are you rushing back now?Is something wrong?

Just when Wang Shirong was about to ask a question, Wang Fuchen had already galloped past him and ran directly to where Kangxi was.

……

"Your Majesty, someone wants to rebel again!"

Seeing Kangxi who was riding on the horse, Wang Fuchen didn't wait for Kangxi to summon him after performing a thousand salutes, and went up to him, and then reported in a low voice.

Emperor Kangxi didn't seem too surprised, but asked in a low voice: "Who is this time?"

It is not surprising that someone rebelled these days, so Kangxi was not surprised at all. Wang Fuchen admired his calmness and calmness. He hurriedly named the person who would rebel.

"Geng Jingzhong!"

Kangxi nodded, and asked again: "Who did Geng Jingzhong expose?"

"It's not Geng Jingzhong who exposes anyone, but Geng Jingzhong wants to rebel!"

"What?" Emperor Kangxi showed an incredulous expression, "Geng Jingzhong rebelled? Why?"

Yes, why?Why did Geng Jingzhong rebel?

"Where is Geng Jingzhong now?" Before Wang Fuchen could answer, Kangxi asked again, "Who owns Fuzhou?"

His question was not to Wang Fuchen, but to Mingzhu.

After Kangxi's imperial conquest, the Qing court was divided into two parts: the traveling dynasty and the left-behind.Among them, the ministers of the imperial court are headed by Nalan Mingzhu, a scholar of the University, Minister of the Ministry of War, Minister of the Imperial Palace, and minister of the Coated Slave Army.

"Returning to the emperor," Mingzhu said, "Geng Jingzhong should have arrived in Wuyi Mountain by now, and Fuzhou, the capital of Fujian, has fallen."

"Then why is he still rebelling?" Kangxi was puzzled, "Fuzhou is gone, so why is he rebelling?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know why he wants to rebel." Wang Fuchen handed over two books at this time, "This is the secret book of Tuhai Tutang, and the secret book of Liu Jinzhong and Sun Yanling who exposed Geng Jingzhong's rebellion."

"What?" Emperor Kangxi was taken aback, "And Sun Yanling's joint name?"

Sun Yanling is still serving as General Dingnan in Ganzhou Prefecture. Although he has no strength, he can still monitor Liu Jinzhong.

If only Liu Jinzhong made the revelation, Emperor Kangxi might not believe it.

But now that Sun Yanling's joint name is added, this is no small matter.

Wang Fuchen said: "Your Majesty, Tu Hai also sent his master Zhou Peigong to explain this matter to the Emperor."

"Zhou Peigong?" Kangxi heard the name a little familiar, but he didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly greeted, "Zhou Peigong, hurry up and talk!"

"Whoo!"

Zhou Peigong, who was kneeling on the ground, quickly got up, and arrived in front of Kangxi in a few steps, then knelt down and waited for Tianyu to inquire.

"Come on, what's going on?"

"Your Majesty," Zhou Peigong hurriedly said, "Sun Yanling brought him and Liu Jinzhong to expose Geng Jingzhong's secret documents, and Geng Jingzhong's autographed letter to Liu Jinzhong suddenly arrived in Wuchang... Both Tang and Weichen in the picture have seen the Geng Jingzhong brought by Sun Yanling. Jingzhong’s autographed letter is indeed his own, and the content in it is astonishing, it’s so insane! So much so that Liu Jinzhong and Sun Yanling think that Geng Jingzhong is not only rebellious, but also crazy!”

"Then, where is Sun Yanling?" Kangxi hurriedly asked.

"It has been brought to Xiangyang by Tutang!"

Chapter 288 Your Majesty, Wu Sangui Comes to Slap His Face!

In Xiangyang City, the Qing Emperor is here.

The "iron-struck" Xiangyang City is now the old camp of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty who was personally conquered by the imperial driver.

The so-called imperial conquest, that is, the "conquest" ended in Xiangyang.It is impossible for Yujia to go further south, let alone go to the front line to fight face to face with Wu Sangui, Zhu Heqi.

However, the news of Kangxi's visit to Xiangyang can still greatly encourage the Qing troops on the battlefields of Huguang and Jiangxi.Coupled with the previous opening of the slave door, it is certain that the morale of the nearly 20 Qing troops on the front lines in Huguang and Jiangxi has already been quite high.In the decisive battle that is about to begin, Wu Sangui's army will definitely be severely damaged.

But what surprised the officials of the Qing Dynasty and senior generals of the Qing army gathered in Hubei, Jiangxi and other places in Xiangyang Prefecture was that the little emperor who had traveled thousands of miles from Beijing to Xiangyang to drive his own conquest, after arriving in Xiangyang, unexpectedly He did not give a banquet to the ministers and generals; second, he did not review the three armies at the large school field outside Xiangyang City;Instead, they went straight to the palace after entering the city, and apart from Le Erjin, Tu Hai, Dong E, E Zha, Jie Shu and Sun Yanling, they did not receive any high-level executives from the front lines of Huguang and Jiangxi.

This made a group of Qing loyal slaves who wanted to be loyal and brave in front of Emperor Kangxi very disappointed and suspicious!

What happened?

Could it be that the dragon is in poor health?

Wu Sangui is so old, he is not "unsafe", and the little emperor Kangxi is only in his early twenties, how can he be "unsafe"?Shouldn't it be...

"No, no, this can't be a trick by Wu Sangui or Zhu Heqi. This letter must be written by Geng Jingzhong himself, and it can't be faked. There are many letters written by Geng Jingzhong in the servant's house, so the servant asked the masters before After careful comparison, it must be true.

Moreover, Liu Jinzhong did not pretend to be a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty in front of the slave. As far as the slave knows, neither he nor his subordinates were invited to be slaves or coated slaves.Liu Jinzhong and his servants made it very clear that with the strength at hand and the territory of Ganzhou Prefecture, they wanted Wu to surrender to Wu, Zhu to surrender to Zhu, and he would surrender to the court when the court returned.He also said that if Geng Jingzhong proclaims himself emperor in Fuzhou, he can also proclaim himself a minister.But if he was asked to leave the territory of Ganzhou Prefecture to attack Hukou and go down to the south of the Yangtze River with Geng Jingzhong, he was absolutely unwilling.

In addition, the slaves have been watching Liu Jinzhong for so long in Ganzhou Mansion, but they never found out that he had turned to the enemy.It's not that he didn't want to vote, but that Wu Sangui, Zhu Heqi didn't take him seriously at all, and never sent anyone to persuade them to surrender, nor did they send troops to force them to surrender.

The servant estimated that Wu Sangui, Zhu and Qi all used Liu Jinzhong as a buffer and were unwilling to take him down. "

It was Sun Yanling who was helping Liu Jinzhong in the middle of the conversation. After he finished speaking, he took out the secret document jointly signed by himself and Liu Jinzhong, and held it up over his head, "Your Majesty, this is a joint memorial signed by the slave and Liu Jinzhong. Although it is written by the slave, it is It was written according to Liu Jinzhong's meaning. After reading this script, you will understand Liu Jinzhong's thoughts."

A eunuch who followed Kangxi took the memorial that Sun Yanling held high above his head and handed it over to Kangxi. Emperor Kangxi took the memorial and unfolded it to read.

The contents of the memorial are mainly two, one is that Liu Jinzhong complains; the other is that Liu Jinzhong wants to hide... Liu Jinzhong's meaning is also very clear, he has too few soldiers under his command, and there are a large number of family members accompanying the army. Very satisfied, do not want to move the place.

So Liu Jinzhong now wants to be a loyal wall grass in Ganzhou Mansion, and the Qing Dynasty will come to surrender the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will descend to the Ming Dynasty, and the Wu will descend to Wu.

Kangxi finished reading the memorial without saying a word, and then let Leerjin, Tuhai, Dong E, Eza, Zhuobutai, Mingzhu, Fuquan, Jin Batai, Xiong Cilu, Dui Kana and others pass on the memorial. look.

After everyone had finished watching, Kangxi asked, "What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, this servant thinks that although Liu Jinzhong is extremely shameless, he is also a real villain, and he is also a real villain who is not slippery."

"Your Majesty, this servant feels that Liu Jinzhong's words are all for this sake, and it seems that there is no need to cheat Jingzhong any more."

"Your Majesty, this Geng Jingzhong is indeed a bit insane. No wonder Liu Jinzhong thinks he is crazy."

"Your Majesty, this servant also thinks that Geng Jingzhong is crazy... With his strength, how dare he think of attacking Hukou and going to the south of the Yangtze River?"

"Your Majesty, this servant thinks that Liu Jinzhong has done something good this time! If he hadn't exposed Geng Jingzhong's treason, Hukou might have been broken by him. Hukou's defenders don't even have five hundred troops!"

"What? There are only a few hundred defenders in such an important place at the mouth of the lake?"

"Your Majesty, although Hukou is important, it is not on the front line after all..."

The person who said that Hukou was really likely to be lost was Jieshu who was in charge of the defense of northern Jiangxi. Jieshu is now in charge of the defense of the northern part of Jiangxi and the Jiangxi and Anhui sections of the Yangtze River. He also appointed a general of Zhenjiang.Although the official position is not small, and the defense area is quite large, there are not many troops at hand. There are only [-] Eight Banner soldiers and more than [-] "semi-servile" Green Battalion soldiers, a total of about [-].

These troops were placed by Jieshu on the territory of Nanchang, Jiujiang, Yuanzhou, Ji'an and other four prefectures, while Jieshu's general Xingyuan was placed in Dehua County of Jiujiang Prefecture.

Of course, [-] troops guarding the four prefectures is not ample.Among them, Jiujiang Prefecture, which does not directly border the enemy, has only [-] garrisons, of which [-] are still stationed in Dehua County, and in the east bank of Poyang Lake, there are only [-] green battalion soldiers in total.

Although there is a Yangtze River waterway that can quickly mobilize troops, it can be achieved that if you hit the head, the tail will come, if you hit the tail, the head will come, and if you hit the middle, both the head and the tail will come.

But if Geng Jingzhong launched a surprise attack...maybe he could really take the Hukou before Tu Hai and Yue Le's reinforcements arrived, thus partially or completely blocking the water transportation of the Yangtze River.

If Geng Jingzhong chooses a good time, for example, when Wu Sangui sent troops, he suddenly launched an attack... Emperor Kangxi just thought of this, when Wang Fuchen's voice suddenly came from outside the hall.

"Your Majesty, the servant Wang Fuchen has an urgent military situation!"

Kangxi was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Wang Fuchen? Come in!"

"Whoo!"

Wang Fuchen outside the door responded, and then quickly stepped into the main hall. Once inside the main hall, he hurriedly knelt down to Emperor Kangxi, and reported loudly: "Your Majesty, the Jingmen and Anlu prefectures urgently report! Two groups, one to attack Qianjiang, the other to go to Dangyang... It is reported that the strength of the two armies is more than [-], and the menacing force is coming!"

Kangxi's face turned blue when he heard the words, and he said coldly: "The old thief Wu will not send troops sooner or later. I will send troops as soon as I arrive. It must be because I found out that I have led an army to Xiangyang, so I want to give me a warning!"

This is a slap in the face!

The officials and generals in the hall immediately understood.

Isn't Kangxi the imperial conquest?Wu Sangui is here, do you Kangxi dare to fight?If he didn't dare, then Wu Sangui would accept the two important fortresses of Qianjiang and Dangyang with a smile.

Dangyang is the gate of Jingmen. Once it is taken by Wu Sangui, Wu Jun will be able to go straight to Huyaguan in front of Jingmenfu city.

Qianjiang is a county close to the Han River. Once it is captured by Wu Sangui, it will become a base for him to build a fortress and cut off the traffic of the Han River.

And once the Han River is cut off... then the long snake formation that the Qing army placed from the mouth of the Yangtze River to Xiangyang City will be cut off!

Emperor Kangxi turned his head and looked at the "high imitation Oboi" Zhuobutai with a gloomy expression, "Super Martial Lord, do you have a plan to defeat the enemy?"

Zhuobutai said: "Your Majesty, although Dangyang and Qianjiang are important, they are not as important as Hukou. The slaves think that the most urgent task now is to capture Geng Jingzhong as soon as possible, so as to stabilize the situation in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and strengthen Jiangxi's defenses so that Fang Zhu and Qi take the opportunity to go north."

Although Zhuobutai's plan was sound, it was a slap in the face!

That was Emperor Kangxi's pockmarked face, how could he hit him casually?

Emperor Kangxi frowned, and looked at Tu Hai, who was still being dismissed and retained in his post.

Before Kangxi arrived at the front line, Tu Hai was the supreme commander on the battlefields of Huguang and Jiangxi. He had led his troops to confront Wu Sangui for half a year, so Kangxi still wanted to hear his opinion.

Tu Hai hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this servant feels that if possible, it is best to incorporate the tens of thousands of troops under Geng Jingzhong's banner while getting rid of Geng Jingzhong. With this large army, we can take advantage of the false attack Hunan, continue with the previous plan!"

Chapter 289 The king is crazy, just get a new one!

"Can you still recruit Geng Jingzhong's soldiers?"

Emperor Kangxi was moved by Tu Hai's words, and looked at Tu Hai eagerly, waiting for him to confess his plan.

Tu Haidao: "Yes! Your Majesty, although Geng Jingzhong has lost his mind and wants to become emperor, he is not Wu Sangui after all. Not to mention that his ability to fight with soldiers is not comparable to Wu Sangui, let alone his soldiers. Wu Sangui's soldiers. Wu Sangui's soldiers were either Guanning iron cavalry or the old troops of Chuangxian and the Second Thieves. They were not really slave soldiers, and they were more or less dissatisfied with the Qing court.

And Geng Jingzhong's grandfather, Geng Zhongming, was King Huaishun of the Qing Dynasty. He returned to Dajin during the Tiancong period. It has been 40 years since he was trained.Therefore, Geng Jingzhong's backbones are all real slaves who obey the Qing Dynasty from the bottom of their hearts, which is different from the fake slaves under Wu Sangui. "

The Banner Army under Wu Sangui is the foundation of the Guanning Army, and it was Chongzhen who shaved his head and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty in 17 years.Most of Wu Sangui's Green Battalion soldiers were recruited from the old troops of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong.

Neither the veterans of the Guan Ning Army nor the former troops of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong were well trained by the Qing court.At that time, the Qing Dynasty was busy conquering the world and grabbing territory, and had no time to train the slaves, so they sent Guan Ningjun to the front line.These people are actually not real slaves of the Qing Dynasty, but at most high imitation slaves.

And those old ministries of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong were even more dissatisfied with the Qing Dynasty.Moreover, this group of people were originally born as rebels, and some of them rebelled several times (rebelling after a false surrender), and all the remaining slavishness in their bones was gone, and now they rebelled with Wu Sangui, that is simply a familiarity... The guy isn't even a high imitation slave, so he'll rebel!

"Yes, yes, yes..." Emperor Kangxi laughed, "Geng Jingzhong is crazy, but his subordinates are not crazy. His subordinates are all real slaves of the Qing Dynasty. As long as they are real slaves, there is no one who is not afraid of the Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers."

The slavishness of Geng's army is the number one in King Sanshun's army!
