Chapter 117 Zhu Yujian, ascending the altar to worship the sky
The Hongguang court, which pursued the policy of "capturing and leveling the Kou", collapsed under the impact of the Qing army's iron cavalry in the south, and the surrender of the Lu domain in central Zhejiang, the impact on the Tang king was huge, so that he had to sum up the lessons of the fall of Hongguang and the surrender of King Lu, and completely change the policy of the dynasty.
At this time, after listening to Wang Yan's four strategies, he couldn't help but admire in his heart, "The four policies of the Qing family are all strategies to save the time, once implemented, they will be of great benefit to the country and the dynasty and can solve the future crisis, but the four strategies are all long-term strategies, whether it is appeasement or open source, or to go to the party to fight and punish corruption, it will take a certain amount of time to see the results." Now that the Azig army is in central Zhejiang, it may be chased and killed at any time, and the Qing family should have a strategy to solve the urgent need at the moment! ”
Wang Yan's strategy, the Tang King almost all adopted, even if many of them were courtiers who objected, the Tang King also thought about it, which made Wang Yan's heart vibrate, and he admired the Tang King for having the spirit of the lord of Zhongxing.
At this time, Wang Yan heard his words, thought slightly in his heart, and said: "Your Highness's worries in your heart, the courtier's fineness, the land of Fujian and Guangdong, no more than the north can be driven at will, if Your Highness relies on high risks and sets up an ambush to the emperor, although there are millions of captives in the north, it is difficult to fly over the important mountains of Fujian and Guangdong." And now is the summer, the north of the war for a long time, not tolerant of the heat, when the army will be suspended to avoid the heat, His Royal Highness as long as he takes advantage of this time, the four strategies of the ministers, clean up the hearts of the people, in order to consolidate its roots, open the sea road, in order to meet its salary, and then appease the department, select generals to train the army, call on the world, it is not difficult to forge ahead! ”
"After listening to the words of the Qing family, the heart of this king is at ease!" Tang Wang nodded with a smile.
At that moment, the two monarchs and ministers had specific discussions on the four strategies, and talked about the dawn of the second day, when Fang Jue was tired, so they washed and rested.
The king of Tang ordered Zuo Maodi and Huang Daozhou to organize the ceremony of supervising the country, and now the situation is urgent, naturally they can't wait too long, so the two of them will use the I Ching calculus to choose the auspicious day nearby, just the day after tomorrow will be auspicious, it is appropriate to worship the sky, and the day of the ceremony will be determined.
Time was pressing, and Zuo Maodi had to arrange for fewer people to build an altar outside the city, and he had to prepare other ceremonial affairs, so the manpower was insufficient.
Just when Zuo Maodi was worried that he would not be able to complete the preparations for the ceremony the day after tomorrow, Wang Wei led the generals and 5,000 soldiers and horses to Wenzhou.
Wang Yan met with the people, and led them to meet the king of Tang, and then asked everyone to lead the soldiers to assist Zuo Maodi in preparing for the ceremony.
On August 20 of the year of Yiyou, the flag outside the city of Wenzhou was unfurled, the war drums were thundering, the soldiers of the five thousand loyal battalions stood solemnly, Zhu Yujian, the king of the Tang Dynasty, was surrounded by more than 20 civil and military forces such as Wang Yan, climbed the high altar, killed six animals to worship the heavens, and told the ancestral temple, "the Han family is unfortunate, the artifact changes hands, and the clothes are in the south." Now the northern captives are extremely evil, defiling my temple, harming my people, robbing my property, and kidnapping my wife and daughter, so that the world is like fire and water, and the people of the four seas are like hanging upside down. This king mourns the ancestral tomb, deplores the people, and now the treasure of the prison country will surely save all the people, and respectfully seek from heaven to restore the emperor's family, drive out the Tartars, and take the cause of my ancestors. The emperor and the queen of the earth, the spirit of the ancestors and the ancestors, should be the king of Youben, the king of the Dangping, the recovery of the two capitals, and the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty! ”
"Swing the Beiyu, recover the two capitals, and prosper the Ming Dynasty!"
"Swing the Beiyu, recover the two capitals, and prosper the Ming Dynasty!"
??
The five thousand soldiers under the altar, as the Tang King finished reading the text, suddenly shouted in unison, and the sound shook the sky.
After the ceremony of supervising the country, the king of Tang drafted an edict with Zuo Maodi, ordering the fast horse to be transmitted to Fujian, Liangguang, Hunan, southwest and other places, so that all the forces loyal to the Ming Dynasty would be loyal to him.
Wang Yan is the general town of Guangdong, first surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, Hunan He Tengjiao was the Nanyang County Decree in the old days, and the Tang King's fief was in Nanyang, which was for the old people, so he immediately expressed his support soon after.
Two days after the Tang King was in Wenzhou, the army of Zheng Zhilong of Fujian Province also rushed to Wenzhou, and when he learned that the Tang King had re-organized the ceremony of supervising the country with the support of Wang Yan, Zuo Maodi and others, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
At this time, 300,000 soldiers and civilians in Yangzhou had gathered in Wenzhou, but Wenzhou could not tolerate people from all walks of life who suddenly came.
North, Qing court.
Since the summer of the year of Yiyou, the military victory of the Northern Captives can be described as very amazing, not only occupied the entire territory of the Dashun Dynasty, but the Dashun Emperor Li Zicheng was also pursued by the Prince of Northern Captives Ying Azig, fled into Tongshan County, Hubei, and was killed by the squire regiment.
A few months later, the Hongguang court in Nanjing also collapsed under the blow of Duoduo, the prince of Yu in the north. The four towns of the Southern Ming Dynasty and the army of Zuo Mengeng surrendered to the Qing court successively.
The small clan of Beiyu, with only more than 200,000 people, has conquered such a vast land and tens of thousands of Han people so easily.
This bizarre phenomenon has had a tremendous impact on various forces.
Since then, the vitality of the Dashun army has been greatly damaged, and only a few remaining troops have been entrenched in the area of the two lakes, and they no longer play the leading role in the Central Plains, and have become thieves again.
The gentry loyal to the Ming Dynasty were also shocked, and the dream of favoring Jiangzuo was ruthlessly shattered, but for Dorgon, the supreme ruler of the Northern Captives, victory came too easily and too simply.
After learning that Hangzhou Lu Fan had also surrendered to the Qing court, Dolgon thought that the two major enemies of the Qing court, Dashun and Nanming, had been completely defeated, and all that remained was to take over the place and enjoy the benefits of conquest.
In August of the year of Yiyou, almost when Wang Yan supported the Tang King in Wenzhou, Dolgon also sent a message to the Ministry of War: "In the south of the Yangtze River, Nanzhili, northern Jiangxi, Hubei, and northern Zhejiang have been surrendered, and Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou and other places have not yet reported for duty. Things are handsome, and meritorious services are rewarded. ”
Some shameless people, hearing the news, have recommended themselves to the Qing court, and soon Dol Roll officially added the title of Gongshun Hou Wu Weihua Taibao to appease Guangdong, plus Sun Zhiqi to appease Jiangxi, Huang Xiyin's military department right attendant title to appease Fujian, Jiang Yuxu's military department right attendant to appease Huguang, Jiading's dragon military department right attendant to appease Yungui place, and Xie Hongyi Metropolitan Procuratorate deputy capital imperial history title to appease Guangxi.
It can be seen that Dolgon was arrogant in his heart, and he did not pay attention to the remaining Ming forces at all, thinking that he could win without a fight with only the might of the northern captives.
At the beginning of their entry into the Northland, they repeatedly suppressed the evil thoughts in their hearts, and deceived the people and the gentlemen with hypocrisy, so they did not get the encouragement to resist.
Now Dolgon miscalculated the situation, arrogantly thought that the world was determined, that the Han people could be easily conquered, and his Hu Yi nature and his murderous appearance were suddenly exposed, and began to implement a series of oppressive and discriminatory policies, while the Han people in the north and south of the river were completely enraged, setting off a surging wave of resistance to the Qing Dynasty.
