Chapter 891: Hidden Murder Machine
The Qing army retreated, and Zuo Liangyu was extremely embarrassed.
Because he was the king of Lintao County canonized by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the men and horses he led were actually not rogues, and should belong to the traitor army of Jiannu.
Gao Yingxiang's acceptance of the canonization of the Manchu Qin King was purely false and wrong, the purpose was to use the Qing army, and now that he has a firm foothold, he will definitely not listen to the dispatch of the Qing army.
When Fan Wencheng came to contact the withdrawal of the army, Gao Yingxiang was still polite to him and agreed to fund some food for the Qing army.
However, it was demanded that when the Qing army retreated from Shaanxi to cross the border, it was not allowed to wantonly slaughter or set fires, and the forced labor must be left behind.
Gao Yingxiang did not hide it, and said in a high-profile manner that he would train troops in Tuntian, Shaanxi, Henan, and that a large number of people were needed.
It is true that Fan Wencheng is a big traitor, but he also doesn't want to see his kind being slaughtered by Jiannu and Tartars, so after he returned, he conveyed Gao Yingxiang's conditions to Zierharang and Azig.
In order to avoid unnecessary disputes and delay the plan to return home, the two Manchu princes, who had collected a large amount of gold and silver treasures, did not retreat on the way.
The Liukou and the Qing army are just using each other, and the same is true for Zuo Liangyu.
The Qing army ran away on its own, and didn't care about where Zuo Liangyu's department went.
Zuo Liangyu's choice to surrender was also an expedient measure, just to save his life and keep his lineage from being annihilated, of course he would not be stupid to follow the Qing army to Liaodong.
Fan Wencheng is sober-minded, and there is no such extravagant hope, it is not impossible to leave Zuo Liangyu's department to mix sand in the rogue, who can predict how the situation will develop next?
Gao Yingxiang is not only not stupid, but also more shrewd, next to the couch, how can he allow others to sleep soundly?
What does Zuo Liangyube mean? Neither the original Ming official army nor the current Manchu army could keep them happy in Xuchang.
First salute and then soldiers, Gao Yingxiang sent a messenger as the king of Manchu Qin to invite Zuo Liangyu, the king of Lintao County of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, to come to Kaifeng to discuss the plan.
If Zuo Liangyu came, he wouldn't be able to leave, and even if Gao Yingxiang didn't kill him, he would be detained and put under house arrest.
Zuo Liangyu's brain was not broken, of course he didn't dare to come, so Gao Yingxiang had to get rid of this "thief general" who disobeyed the order.
On the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, Gao Yingxiang convened the generals to discuss the matter.
Jin Minghu deliberately pointed out that Zuo Liangyu, who was stationed in Xuchang, received an order from King Chuang, but he openly ignored it and did not rush to Kaifeng to discuss the matter, which was punishable.
There are many people who have suffered Zuo Liangyu's losses in the Liukou, and the left has been fighting with the Qing army in the past, and if they want to retaliate against Zuo Liangyu, they need to weigh and weigh.
At this time, more than a dozen big leaders saw Jin Minghu taking the lead against Zuo Liangyu, and immediately expressed their desire to get rid of the "thief general".
Li Yan is a native of Henan, and he deeply hated the Zuo Liangyu tribe that had done many evils and caused trouble in Henan, and believed that the righteous army, which urgently needed to unify its thinking, could not let this army wander away.
Li Zicheng also did not have a good impression of Zuo Liangyu, and strongly agreed with sending troops to solve this problem.
The result is so funny, because the "Red Flag Army" did not attack, the pressure from the outside plummeted, so that Gao Yingxiang made up his mind to organize 100,000 horses to besiege Xuchang to solve Zuo Liangyu's troops.
Time has passed, and today's Zuo Liangyu belongs to the landed phoenix, which is not as good as a chicken, and most of his subordinates have their own ghosts.
Ma Jinzhong was originally a rogue, his strength was not small, and he was called "100,000 Mixed Officials", and after surrendering to the imperial court, he thought that he would be able to mix with the official body and glorify his ancestors.
Who knew that after being controlled by Zuo Liangyu, he became even more unbearable, and when he saw that King Chuang led his men and horses to attack Zuo Liangyu, he immediately led more than 10,000 people to defect.
Wang Yuncheng, a general under Zuo Liangyu, is a native of Liaodong, and has earned a resounding nickname "Iron Cavalry King" because of his outstanding riding skills.
In the third year of Chongzhen, he followed Zuo Liangyu into the customs and turned to the war, and his footprints traveled all over the five provinces and the central capital.
Since Zuo Liangyu surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Wang Yuncheng has a different heart.
Ma Jinzhong, who re-took refuge in Gao Yingxiang, had a good relationship with Wang Yuncheng, and went to persuade him to surrender in person, but Wang Yuncheng was moved by the words, and took more than 3,000 riders.
When Xuzhou was surrounded, more than half of Zuo Liangyu's men did not retreat into the city to hold on, and they chose to defect to Gao Yingxiang.
The soldiers got 30,000 horses without blood, including four or five thousand horse troops, Gao Yingxiang was full of spirits and high morale!
In the case of shouting and persuasion to surrender to no avail, Gao Yingxiang ordered the siege of the city.
This time, Jin Minghu's department was really fighting, and Li Zicheng's department was not ambiguous, but in just three days, Zuo Liangyu's department showed a declining trend, and the attack of the rogues became more and more fierce.
In order to repay Gao Yingxiang's kindness, Xing Hongniang personally climbed the ladder to attack the city with perseverance and success, and made a great achievement.
The defenders who did not have a strong will to fight were led by Xing Hongniang, who was eager to make meritorious contributions, to attack the city, which immediately had a chain reaction, and most of Zuo Liangyu's troops gave up resistance and surrendered.
There was no fierce street fighting, and after discovering that Gao Yingxiang's troops had killed Xuchang City, most of them chose to surrender except for a small number of Zuo Liangyu's henchmen.
After learning that the city was lost, Zuo Liangyu did not sit still, and took his son Zuo Mengeng to lead hundreds of ironclad soldiers and more than 1,000 cavalry in a vain attempt to break through from the east gate.
Gao Yingxiang is not a vegetarian either, and staying at the east gate is to leave a way for Zuo Liangyu.
Zuo Liangyu also did not give it for nothing, knowing that the East Gate seemed to be calm but was secretly killing, he still rushed out with less than two thousand horsemen.
In the past, a thousand Guanning iron cavalry could chase tens of thousands of rogue soldiers, and beat them to cry and cry for their mother, Zuo Liangyu thought that it should not be too difficult to lead the elite cavalry under his command to fight out of the encirclement.
Who knows that this is not what it used to be, the quality of Gao Yingxiang's ironclad cavalry is stronger than a year, and he found that Zuo Liangyu's men and horses rushed out of Xuchang City, and more than 8,000 horsemen rushed up.
The strength is about the same, but the disparity in strength, after the two armies hedged once, Zuo Liangyu's department lost confidence, many people gave up resistance and surrendered, Zuo Liangyu and Zuo Mengeng tried to seize the road and fled without success.
The ending was more miserable, Zuo Liangyu and his son died in the scramble for the corpse of the rogue who was found after the scuffle, and in the end, there were dozens of rogue old camp horse thieves who took the stump of Zuo Liangyu and his son to repay their merits.
Zuo Liangyu and his son were destroyed, and the original Zuo Liangyu Department of Bacheng was absorbed, Gao Yingxiang completed the internal unification, broke away from the cooperation with the Qing army, and his prestige was raised again.
At this time, there was a good thing that was icing on the cake, and it was three messengers sent by Zhu Dadian who took Zhu Dadian's handwritten letter and asked to see King Gao Chuang.
These three people are actually just three captured rogues, and they came to Gao Yingxiang to deliver a letter, and they saw Gao Yingxiang, the chief dart leader, kneeling down and kowtowing obediently.
The keen Li Yan found a good opportunity to boost the morale of the rebels again, and insisted on publicizing that the Ming Dynasty sent three envoys to negotiate with the rebels.
The news spread quickly in the Rogue Barracks, and too many Rogue Bandits who didn't know the truth increased their loyalty.
Gao Yingxiang did not embarrass the three who sent the letter, wrote a reply to Zhu Dadian, and invited him to come to Kaifeng to negotiate, promising that the two armies would not fight each other, as long as Zhu Dadian came to talk, everything would be negotiable.
