By chance, Zheng Chenggong learned that Nanming was preparing to send an envoy to the Qing court.

The young and energetic Zheng Chenggong was immediately furious.

So, they bled Sun Zhengqiang, Zhang Youcai, Wang Yan and others they had captured and hung them on the stern of the ship.

These members of the mission...

By the time we arrived in Handu, there was only one bone left...

Ma Shaoyu, who was also the deputy envoy, was ordered by Zhu Youjian to make fertilizer...

It is a pity that Zuo Maodi and Chen Hongfan escaped because they entered Shuiguan first and successfully reached the capital.

……

Chen Hongfan is Donglu's old friend.

The two sides have a good relationship...

They are all old friends of decades...

Even after the establishment of the Nanming Dynasty, Chen Hongfan's contact with the Manchu Qing Dynasty was not severed.

Back on June 26th.

Chen Hongfan and his party have not set off yet, and even the Hongguang Dynasty has not yet determined whether it will really cede territory to the Qing court!

Dorgon got the news.

(It’s outrageous. Nanming officially confirmed his mission on the fifth day of July.

The mission set out on July [-]th.

Dorgon, who was far away in Beijing, was one step ahead and knew the national policy direction that Nanming had not yet researched.

I really don’t know if it was Dorgon’s miraculous plan...

Or is it the Jiangnan Group that works tirelessly to promote court policies for the benefit of Dorgon...)

Dorgon immediately wrote a letter to recruit Chen Hongfan to surrender.

Chen Hongfan's son-in-law, Tang Qilong, the son of Tang Yushi who had already surrendered to the Qing court, was asked to go and read the edict.

On August 21, as soon as Chen Hongfan arrived in Suqian, he met Tang Qilong who was heading south.

As shown in the picture, it is outrageous. As soon as Chen Hongfan arrived in Suqian, he met Dorgon’s envoy who was strutting deep into the Nanming-controlled area.

Suqian is only five hundred miles away from Nanjing!

And the distance from Beijing to Suqian is more than 500 miles!

Not to mention the four towns in Jiangbei, Shi Kefa's camp is in Yangzhou...

(At this time, Shi Kefa had already left the Nanjing court and crossed the river to go north.)

Right under Nanming's nose, the Qing army swaggered to recruit Chen Hongfan to surrender...

The Qing army was all Gundam, and everyone was wearing invisibility cloaks, just like when Zheng Chenggong attacked Nanjing!

Chen Hongfan secretly surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, knelt down and kowtowed, and accepted the imperial edict written by Dorgon.

On October [-], the mission arrived in Beijing.

(Note: The above times are from "Records of Shunzhi".)

On the 10th, Guarjia Ganglin, a representative of the Qing court and Dorgon's confidant, accepted 1000 taels of silver, [-] taels of gold, silk and other items sent by Nanming.

However, after the things were collected, Gang Lin, on behalf of the Qing court, rejected Nan Ming's proposal to jointly deal with Li Zicheng.

At this time, Shunzhi had just entered Beijing and the Qing army had not yet suffered a defeat. It was a time when he was feeling arrogant.

Just like in history, they not only rejected the proposal for joint operations, but also rejected Zhu Yousong's request to send people north to pay tribute to the imperial mausoleum and rebury Emperor "Chongzhen".

Zuo Maodi was furious and argued many times, but there was a traitor named Chen Hongfan inside.

Zuo Maodi's several efforts failed.

They had no choice but to hastily set up a "Tailao" outside Honglu Temple to commemorate all the emperors who were buried in Beidu from Emperor Yongle on down.

Dorgon was influenced by Zuo Maodi's loyalty. He tried to recruit Zuo Maodi to surrender several times, and even threatened his life countless times, but he could not force Zuo Maodi to surrender.

Immediately afterwards, the battle at Jiaoer Dusi was imminent, and Dorgon had to put Zuo Maodi and others under house arrest.

But Chen Hongfan told Nan Ming everything.

At that time, the war was in full swing, and Dorgon was determined to conquer Shanshan in one battle. He originally wanted to expel Zuo Mao's first line.

However, he was dissuaded by Hong Chengchou.

Under Hong Chengchou's precautionary advice, Dorgon has placed Zuo Maodi under house arrest to this day.

……

Hong Chengchou laughed and did not take any credit.

Dorgon glanced at Hong Chengchou appreciatively:

"So, what Hong Qing means is to let Zuo Mao go back?"

Hong Chengchou smiled darkly:

"Master, let them leave the capital, and then recall Zuo Maodi when they are halfway there, leaving only Chen Hongfan to go south..."

Master, do you think the Ming Dynasty Jiangnan can still jump out of the palm of your hand? "

"wonderful!"

Dorgon high-fived and sighed.

Chen Hongfan had surrendered to them long ago, and even his children, in-laws, and son-in-law were serving as officials in the Qing court.

As long as Chen Hongfan is under control, Jiangnan's true and false will be visible to him.

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you survive a hundred battles!

"good!"

Dorgon clapped his hands and sighed, and said loudly:

"Just go and give the order."

Hong Chengchou smiled, saluted, and left.

……

Honglu Temple.

Zuo Mao's first line has been imprisoned here and has been cut off from internal and external news for more than half a year.

The people in the mission were in panic.

Earlier, there were still people coming to fight with them.

However, since the New Year, the Qing court has sent people to cover the wall with thorns, broken porcelain, and razor blades.

They even sent people to guard the front and rear gates.

Not to mention that he escaped over the wall, even if he wanted to ask someone, it would be impossible.

Zuo Maodi has cut off all news from the outside world.

Dorgon really wanted to recruit Zuo Maodi.

Every day, the Qing court sent people in different ways to persuade them to surrender.

Today, as usual, someone came to persuade me to surrender...

Li Jiantai, the Minister of Civil Affairs of the Ming Dynasty and a scholar of Dongge University, was standing in front of Zuo Maodi.

"Brother Zuo, the Qing Dynasty is powerful.

Yanyun is an important place in China. Today, Yanyun is in the hands of the Qing Dynasty. We, the Qing Dynasty, have taken advantage of all the geographical advantages.

Brother Zuo should recognize the general trend and surrender as soon as possible. "

"Oh~!"

Zuo Maodi looked at Li Jiantai's big, smooth head, with two pieces of hair the size of copper coins.

The braid is as thin as a little girl peeing, and can even pass through the eyes of copper coins easily.

"You old dog are still alive?"

Zuo Maodi's face was full of ridicule:

"I, Emperor Chongzhen, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, favored you so much that I even asked you to recruit a large army to destroy the intruders.

What a blessing it is to be entrusted with military and state affairs!

Today, you old dog, not only did you not die for your country, but you joined the traitor and became a slave of the three surnames!

You shameless person, how can you come to see me? "

"Pooh!"

Zuo Maodi spit at Li Jiantai fiercely:

“Get out of here!

Get out of here!

How could that thief, who is not a son of man, stain the eyes of my Han family man! "

Li Jiantai felt uncomfortable being scolded, so he could only say sadly:

"Brother Zuo, why do you have to be so impulsive?

It should be noted that although Mr. Li has bad solar terms, your loyal Zhu Yousong still stole the throne of Emperor Chongzhen!

When it comes to being disloyal to his ex-junior, Zhu Yousong is the number one one~! "

Li Jiantai's words were quite sharp.

If it had been anyone else, he would have hidden his face and retreated.

However, who is Zuo Maodi?

This man was the last eloquent foreign minister in the Ming Dynasty.

But he saw Zuo Maodi slowly taking a sip of tea. In just this moment, he had already thought of a countermeasure:

"You thief, why do you need to mess around?

When I succeeded to the throne, the country was in turmoil.

At that time, transportation between the north and the south was blocked, and I did not know that the emperor was still alive.

For the sake of our country, the Ming Dynasty, and for the sake of our country, I, the king, take orders at the critical moment to save our Han family from collapse.

This is the great righteousness of family, country, world, race and society!

Even though I'm sorry for Emperor Chongzhen, I'm sorry for you, the great emperor!

Worthy of my Han family!

The grudges between you and Emperor Chongzhen are the internal affairs of my Han family!

Regardless of whether Emperor Chongzhen is reigning or whether I am the emperor, they are all the emperors of the Ming Dynasty and the Han Dynasty.

Even though this is unfaithful, it is only a small detail!

On the contrary, you, the thief, knew that your father was in trouble and did not want to serve the country. Instead, you took refuge in the thief.

Later, he abandoned Li Zicheng and took refuge with the Eastern Tatars.

You, the man who regards thieves as your father, are the greatest traitor in the world who has no king, no father, no country, no family, no clan and no race! "
