Chapter 728: Yue Le's Good Deed
"Master, don't do it!"
Sonny and Ao Bai were so shocked that their souls were about to fly, Guan Xiaozhong and Ma Fengzhi had more than 10,000 soldiers in their hands, and now they are leading troops to regain lost territory in order to atone for their crimes; One fended off the pirates in Chongming to show his loyalty to the Qing Dynasty. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info At this time, Shunzhi wanted to issue an order to arrest the two of them, but he couldn't faint with a stinky move, and the consequences were unimaginable, you must know that Zheng Sen's army didn't leave!
Sony is not worried that Guan Allegiance will be opposed, if he wants to rebel, he will do it a long time ago, because the family members of Guan Allegiance are all in Beijing, but Ma Fengzhi invited the family members to Su Song as early as the beginning of the year, and there is no worry about the family, if he really wants to know that the court wants to kill him, he can still wait and see as before, can he not rebel?
Even Ma Fengzhi didn't dare to raise the flag to rebel, but as long as he let Chongming out and let the bandits take root in Haikou, it would be like a sharp stick stuck in Jiangnan, and the war in Jiangnan would never end! Jiangnan is uneven for a day, and the Qing Dynasty will not be able to receive money and grain for a day. Without the money and grain in Jiangnan and the taxes, what will the Qing Dynasty do to deal with the Cantonese bandits in the north, the treasury is empty at the moment, not much worse than Ming Chongzhen before!
What Jiangnan needs now is rapid stability, what is needed is to restore order as soon as possible, and what is needed is the money and grain that can be collected immediately and taxed, so Sony advocates that Jiangnan should be appeased, and those official gentry who are through the pirates can let them go for the time being, and then settle accounts with them in the future. But when the master opened his mouth, he wanted to hunt down Guan Xiaozhong and Ma Fengzhi, who held heavy troops, and if this thing was not done well, it would cause a big change and let the situation of Jiangnan erosion continue, which was the last thing Sony wanted to happen.
Ao Bai is both worried, the reason why Guan Xiaozhong is actively leading troops to recover the lost territory at the moment is nothing more than to atone for his guilt in exchange for the leniency of the imperial court, but the master is destined to be a slave under the Xin Zhiku as a slave, and the end of Guan Allegiance is worse than death. If he wants to be a tool, can he really stand this kind of shame and allegiance?
Guan is loyal to a strong general, although he suffered defeat in Guazhou and Zhenjun, but this person can still fight. The battle of Jiangning is certainly Liang Huafeng's first success, but without the cooperation of Guan Allegiance, Liang Huafeng can turn the tide with his own strength?
Although Guan Loyal has the great sin of losing 4,000 Manchurian children, after all, he held Jiangning, repelled the pirates, and never showed his intention to surrender, which shows his loyalty to the Qing Dynasty. Ao Bai believed that Guan Zhizhi should be pardoned and given a chance, rather than a heavy punishment, because the Han military flag was very important to the Qing Dynasty at the moment, and it can be said that since the Taizu Incident, the Qing Dynasty has never relied on the Han army as much as it does now.
In the past two years, Ao Bai has been settling accounts and settling people's lives. Since the rise of the Cantonese bandits Taiping Kou in Guangdong, too many Manchurian children have been killed in battle. First, Hahamu buried more than 2,400 Manchurian children in Guangzhou; Then Jidu buried more than 2,000 Manchurian children in Huizhou; The battle of Mopan Mountain that followed buried more than 3,000 Manchurian children; Luo Tuo buried more than 1,000 Manchurian children in Guangxi; In the battle of Zhenjiang a month ago, more than 4,000 Manchurian children died in Huangquan. In these battles, nearly 15,000 Manchurian soldiers were killed, and the casualties of the Mongol and Han armies increased several times.
The casualties are too great to be so big that the Manchurian Eight Banners can no longer bear it, and at present, in addition to the 20,000 Manchu and Mongolian soldiers in Yunnan, it is the 10,000 Manchurian children and 20,000 Mongolian troops who have been personally recruited with the Shunzhi Emperor, and in addition, there is no place in the Qing Dynasty that can mobilize more than 1,000 Manchu and Mongolian soldiers. The situation is very dangerous, very dangerous, if the Manchurian children continue to suffer casualties like this, this Qing Dynasty will no longer be the Great Qing Dynasty of Manchuria!
Aobai is very sober, although everyone in Manchu says that he is a rough man and a martial artist, but he can settle accounts better than anyone else.
Earlier, Fan Wencheng wrote to Shunzhi, saying that he wanted to raise the flag for the Han army on a large scale, although Shunzhi did not agree to this, but Ao Bai always remembered this matter, thinking that Fan Wencheng's method was good and could alleviate the problem of insufficient troops in the Eight Banners of Manchuria. He believed that once those Han troops were brought into the Eight Banners of Manchuria, they would be Manchurians, and there was no need to worry that these Han troops would cut off the foundation of Manchuria. As long as the Qing Dynasty still maintained the Manchu control of the Mongols and Hans, and maintained the privileges of the Manchurian Eight Banners, Manchukuo would always be Manchuria.
Ao Bai concluded that tens of thousands of Han troops were now carried into the Eight Banners of Manchuria, and these Han troops would not only serve Manchu and consider themselves Manchurians, but also their children and grandchildren would also regard themselves as Manchurians, and even they would be proud of their names in Manchuria, and their dead Han ancestors would also be assigned to Manchuria. Ao Bai, who has this view, naturally attaches great importance to the Han army, and also appreciates those Han army generals who have made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty.
Ao Bai knelt in front of Shunzhi and kowtowed, telling his master about the consequences of the current arrest of Guan Allegiance and Ma Fengzhi, pointing out that these people are very important to the Qing Dynasty at the moment, and begging the master to hold back his anger a little and punish them after Jiangnan is completely pacified. With this buffer, Ao Bai believes that he can be exempted from his loyalty to Guan when the time comes.
Sony also let go of the feud with Aobai and persuaded the master not to be rash. Bahana didn't think there was anything wrong with killing Guan and Ma before, but after listening to the two ministers, he also knew that this matter was a bit too hasty, so he knelt down to dissuade him.
Shunzhi didn't listen to the persuasion of the minions, and just wanted to capture the thief's Ma Fengzhi and his four thousand Manchurian sons, otherwise the evil anger in his heart would be really difficult to vent. When he had to report that hundreds of thousands of bandits had entered the Yangtze River and besieged Nanjing, Shunzhi was so frightened that he almost wanted to go back to Beijing under the pretext that his concubine Dong E's illness had worsened. It was that he didn't shrink back in fright on the spot, but after that, for more than half a month, he slowed down the speed of his southward movement under the pretext that the army was not gathered and the local grain and grass were not enough, although no one among the courtiers dared to break the emperor This is afraid, but Shunzhi himself knows it, so he is more and more angry with Guan Xiaozhong and Ma Fengzhi, if it were not for these two people, why would he be so ashamed.
Seeing that the master insisted on doing it, Ao Bai had no choice, so he said: "The master will not give the next edict to Guan Zhi, let him go and catch Ma Fengzhi." Then he issued an edict to Liang Huafeng, asking him to wait for Guan Xiaozhong to solve Ma Fengzhi before looking for an opportunity to arrest Guan Xiaozhong and Jiang Guozhu, so that he would not be afraid. ”
Sonny and Bahana also echoed the idea of worship, although this method is still risky, but it is the most appropriate.
"That's fine."
Shunzhi thought about it, nodded, and casually instructed Bahana: "Proposed decree, Liang Huafeng has meritorious service in breaking thieves, and he will be awarded the third-class Ada Hahafan, add the crown prince Taibao, Zuodu Governor, and be promoted to Susong Governor, and give Jin Jia and Mink Qiu." ”
"Wow!"
Bahana was about to go to the draft, but before the people came out of the big tent, the first-class guard Feiyangu rushed in pantingly, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, Guangdong Governor Tang Sanshui urgently reported that Nanchang has fallen, Governor Zhang Chaoxuan, Zuo Buzheng Tong Fengcai and others have been martyred, and the whole province of Jiangxi has been occupied by Guangdong bandits!" ”
"What? Jiangxi is lost! ”
Shunzhi was shocked, and after taking the emergency report, his face sank like water, and he slapped the urgent report on the royal table with a half-sound, and said angrily: "Yue Le did a good thing!" (To be continued.) )
