On the night of July 10, what happened in the Rehe Palace in the north, Li Xi was not clear, he was busy receiving good news, and at the same time he had a headache about the Xishan camp.

Yue Chaolong defeated his nephew Yue Zhongqi and retreated in the direction of Jingzhou, which was blocked by Meng Songhai's Yangtze River fleet, and was already a turtle in an urn. He Mengfeng seized Hankou and Hanyang, and was facing north and west, rolling towards Henan and Xiangyang in Hubei. Xie Dingbei had joined forces with Fang Tangheng's soldiers and horses in Jiujiang, and Fang Tangheng attacked Nanchang on the one hand, and sent troops to join Meng Songhai's other water division directly into Anhui and killed Anqing Mansion.

The direction of the south of the Yangtze River is also like a bamboo, Bai Yanding's navy entered the mouth of the river, arrived at Zhenjiang, the people of Zhenjiang Green Camp were scattered, and Feng led the Fubo army to easily occupy Zhenjiang. Han Zaixing's troops took Songjiang Mansion without blood, and they were besieging Suzhou. Li Fu personally guarded Suzhou, with a stubborn posture of the city in the people, but there were no available generals under his command, so a group of poor scholars from the Dayi Society, and the soldiers and horses of the green battalion gathered were also disheartened, and it was a matter of the past few days to take Suzhou.

In the west of the river, the Xishan camp collapsed, and the Han military camp retreated westward to Yongfeng under the leadership of Yang Kun. From Yang Kun to ordinary soldiers, they all thought that they were rebellious in the Qing Dynasty and had no desire to return to the north. But he felt that he owed too much blood debt to Nanban, and he didn't dare to surrender to Nanban, so he sat in Yongfeng and didn't know where to go. The Manchu military camp was like a lost dog, abandoning all the baggage, and fleeing in the northeast direction, apparently wanting to take the line of Fuzhou and Raozhou to enter Anhui and retreat north.

Pei Mingji was furious, how could he let the duck that was almost cooked fly away? Left troops to monitor the Han military camp in Yongfeng, and led the brigade to chase after the full military camp. Jiangxi's pacification envoy Hou Tongjun also went out from the direction of Jianchang to intercept the Manchu military camp.

Although Tian Wenjing ruled Jiangxi for ten years, and the provinces in the north of Jiangxi were like iron barrels, in order to protect Nanchang, most of the soldiers, horses, money, and grain in this direction were all transferred, and the Raozhou area in Fuzhou was in dire straits. The retreat of the Manchu military camp was like dragging a firework, scorching the two prefectures of Fuzhou and Raozhou. Whenever they arrived in the county and township, they wantonly oppressed the local gentry, and when they retreated to Fuzhou City, it was difficult for the Manchu military camp, which had suffered enough, to maintain military discipline, and they even directly robbed it, provoking the local people to revolt. Pei Mingji pursued along the way, Jiangxi local counties and townships did not have much resistance, the Manchu military camp became the pioneer of Bei Mingji's recovery of Jiangxi, to the Manchu military camp fled to Raozhou, Fuzhou without a fight, but also achieved Pei Mingji's "Xie Dingbei" second reputation.

Just because the Manchu military camp is so useful, Jiangxi's military and political officials have written to the general headquarters, hoping that the Manchu military camp will not be destroyed immediately, so as to show the brutality of the Manchu people and clean up the hearts of the people in Jiangxi.

Li Xi also nodded, even if the Manchu military camp fled into Anhui, but Fang Tangheng had already arrived in Anqing, and the direction of Jiangnan was also coming from east to west, and it was about to use the Yangtze River as a line to seal the entire south, and the Manchu military camp had no place to escape.

But some strange signs gradually emerged, which made Li Xi and the general headquarters worried.

There were about 17,800 people in the Manchurian camp who ran away, and they fled all the way, but they did not break up, and they moved quickly, the route was clear, and there seemed to be someone to guide them.

The three generals in the south of the Yangtze River, Zhao Hongen and Bazin have a total of less than 10,000 people, and they are retreating towards Xuzhou.

The movements on these two sides could not have come together, but the Jiangnan Tiandi Society reported that Nian Qianyao only had a few thousand soldiers and horses in Yangzhou, and more than 10,000 other people arrived in Jiangning with the Jiangnan Naval Division, and the pioneers had entered Anhui and arrived in Wuhu.

What does Nian Qianyao want to do?

In addition to the 5,000-flag battalion, there are more than 10,000 local green battalions. But Zhou Kunlai reported that the green battalion under Nian Qianyao was not a local in Zhejiang, but was recruited from Huai'an, Xuzhou and even Shandong, and the lack of the green battalion was strictly speaking, Nian Qianyao's private soldiers.

This guy has long hidden his dissent, so he doesn't know how big his appetite is......

The staff officers of the General Headquarters deduced that Nian Qianyao's intention was to occupy Jiangning and block our army in the Wuhu area. ..., this is just from a purely military point of view, the staff officers of the General Command are not involved in political affairs, and it is not clear that Nian Qianyao issued a neutral proposal to the Jiangnan camp through Zuo Weisheng. Nian Qianyao said that Yinghua would never hinder the capture of Jiangnan, but Yinghua would also allow him to lead his troops to retreat north.

Li Shi also nodded in this matter, after all, Jiangnan is densely populated, and if he can fight less, he will fight less. Nian Qianyao's department is also the only unit in Jiangnan with combat effectiveness, and its people are quite familiar with the tactics of the Anglo-Chinese military system, and their own losses will definitely be not small in the battle. Nian Qianyao had any strange plans, Li Xian didn't take it to heart, he was not on the same level as himself.

Therefore, Nian Qianyao's westward march should not be to stop Fang Tangheng, it is more likely to be ...... Pick up the Manchu military camp in Xibao.

Li Xi was a little annoyed, and Jiangnan Xingying was used as a ladder by Nian Qianyao again, and this was the second time. He ordered Pei Mingji to speed up his pace and kill the full military camp, and at the same time, Han Zaixing's side also taught Nian Qianyao a good lesson.

The people who can lead the Manchu military camp have obviously made some efforts, the Manchu military camp retreats north very quickly, and the front of Pei Mingji is not a city and a city that has heard the wind, and there is always some obstruction, and the distance between the two sides is getting wider and wider, and the Manchu military camp has the possibility of escaping from Jiangxi.

While annoyed that Nian Qianyao was overwhelmed by the clouds and rain, and had no discipline, Li Xi was still guessing where this guy's ambition was going. According to Xue Xue and Chen Wance's opinions, Nian Qianyao is afraid that he wants to use this skill to blackmail Yongzheng, so as to entrench himself in Huaibei Shandong and imitate Tian Wenjing, no, he is further than Tian Wenjing, just like Shi Shibi, the "King of the Southeast" many years ago.

The Manchu military camp may not be caught, and the disposition of the Han military camp has caused disputes between the Privy Council and the political hall. The Privy Council believed that these traitors were too stubborn, and even if they were not killed, they should all be thrown to Nanyang to open mines, and they would not be pardoned for life. However, the political affairs hall believes that these people are all Han Chinese, and the treatment is too heavy, which is detrimental to the righteousness of Yinghua.

The disposition of the Han military camp is too lenient, which not only damages the morale of the army, but also damages the hearts of the people, after all, these people are standard traitors, and they are still evil slaves who rarely invade the Anglo-Chinese border and kill and injure thousands of officers and soldiers. But the disposal is too heavy, and it will damage the hearts of the people on the other side, and the banner people were able to give a chance to reform themselves, and even gave a good example like the Sixth Division of the Janissaries, but it is really unreasonable for these Han people to be so heavy-handed.

After struggling for two days, he felt that he should wait for the situation in Jiangxi to come over, and Li Shi turned his head again to take care of the bottom of the north-south peace talks, Sun Jiagan had already arrived in Fujian, and although the battle was not over, the peace talks were about to begin.

In the government hall of the grass hall, Li Xianzheng was silent, and a person suddenly rushed in in a panic, Siniang subconsciously stopped this person, but it was Yang Shi.

"Something big is happening in the north, north!"

Yang Shi's face was twisted extremely strangely, and it scared Siniang, what is the big deal? Could it be that the army has been defeated?

Listening to Yang Shi stammering and explaining the reason for the accident, Li Shi gasped, Yongzheng fell ill and was in danger!?

How could it be!?

Li Xi still didn't believe it, calculating the time, although Yongzheng had been in power for ten years, he ascended the throne three years earlier than his previous life, and he was only fifty-one years old at this time, and there were still six years before the braids.

Confused...... History has long been changed by itself, since Kangxi does not have fifty-seven, it is normal for Yongzheng to not have thirteen.

Looking at Yang Shi again, he felt that his face and eyes were not quite right, Siniang was also staring at herself, Li Yan scratched her cheeks: "What's wrong?" Do I have flowers on my face? ”

Yang Shi said in a strange tone: "The political affairs hall, the privy council, the general affairs hall, and the leaders of the east and west houses have all petitioned the emperor for urgent discussion, and everyone still said and said ......."

Siniang said her heart: "Official, when did you arrange it?" ”

Hey? What does this mean?

Yang Shi finished speaking: "Everyone also said that this was the arrangement of the official family, and they all complained that the official family secretly changed the Tartar Emperor again, and they didn't say hello to everyone." ”

Siniang lowered her head dissatisfiedly and said, "Yes, even those of us around us don't know ......"..., Li Xi almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, I!? When am I going to change Yongzheng? I'm afraid that something will happen to him, this is simply too wrong! Besides, how can I be so powerful? Since Ru Xi's line was broken, the communication with the north has not been smooth, and there was news before that Ru Xi was imprisoned by Yongzheng, how could I remotely control Yongzheng's health thousands of miles away?

Siniang pouted and snorted: "What's the use of not admitting it?" As everyone knows, the official family has such power. ”

Puren Palace, facing the crowd, stared at him tightly, with amazement, complaint, or awe in his eyes, Li spread his hands weakly: "This is God's arrangement, it's really not my ......"

How can you believe it, the old things of ten years ago are still vivid. At that time, Li Xi once stated that he wanted to intervene in the change of the Manchu throne, and the candidate was today's Yongzheng.

According to secret spy news, Yongzheng has worked hard for many years, and he is superstitious about Taoist pills, and his body is already on the verge of collapse. According to common sense, Yinghua poked out the "Yongzheng Eighteen Articles" in the newspaper before, and Yongzheng was most likely angry by himself, but everyone always felt that the emperor was afraid that the emperor had done something to secretly catalyze this matter. The emperor has no "interest" in Yongzheng, and is ready to replace him and help another Qing emperor who is obedient and obedient.

The vast majority of people think so, the emperor helped Yongzheng up, in exchange for ten years of peace, so that Yinghua can melt a country with peace of mind, and at the same time bury the line south and northwest while striving for the benefits of the South Seas, laying the foundation of a country's great cause, which is enough to prove the correctness of the original policy. Now Yongzheng is disobedient, and he actually took advantage of the fact that when we went south, he stabbed him in the back, and if he didn't get rid of this guy, it would be difficult to get out of his evil spirit.

Besides, even if it weren't for Your Majesty's "Secret Immortal Law", wouldn't it be Your Majesty who stabbed the "Yongzheng Eighteen Articles" in the newspaper? In the light and in the dark, Yongzheng was brought down by Your Majesty, don't deny it......

Li Xi tried to change the topic: "I have allowed everyone to hold this imperial emergency discussion, not to let everyone come to crusade against me, but to quickly agree on a countermeasure...... I don't have an idea! I'm waiting for your thoughts! I...... I said, I didn't do it, grass! ”

Seeing that everyone still had a face that was unbelievable, Li Xian was already worried about this matter, and he was so angry that he burst into foul language, really thinking that he was Li Banxian? On the other hand, it is also to vent your dissatisfaction with Yongzheng, aren't you an iron beater? Why can't you bear it in ten years? How can I be ashamed and indignant after being slapped in the face once? What useless rubbish!

Yongzheng reigned for ten years, relying on an iron fist to suppress the north, and I don't know how many contradictions were suppressed. If you really want to suddenly braid, the new emperor can't stop the field, and there will be chaos in the north, and Yinghua will have to take action at that time, but it will go against the established policy of this battle.

What is the policy?

Li Shi preached to the outside world that there was no boundary in this battle, but all the troops and horses received instructions to stop at the line of the Yellow River and no longer advance northward.

After the end of this war, Yinghua wanted to eat the five complete provinces of Hubei, Anhui, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Sichuan, as well as most of Jiangsu, Henan, Shaanxi, and even part of Gansu and Qinghai, and the geographical area was greatly expanded, and the population increased by 40 or 50 million. According to the Anglo-Chinese national system, it must take time to digest it, and it can no longer be swallowed northward, otherwise it will mess up the foundation of a country.

For this reason, the Manchu Qing had to continue to stabilize the north, Yongzheng had to stabilize his throne, and the peace treaty had to be signed by him, how could he let him fall?

"I have already spoken first, and now Yongzheng is indispensable, Yongzheng is about to fall, and we also have a headache."

"Yes, even if Your Majesty has the ability of a half-immortal, he will not hide it so tightly if he wants to act, and when he disposed of the Kangxi throne, didn't he discuss it with several ministers in advance."

Xue Xue and Chen Wance, the two Guiguzi conspirators, hurriedly came out to paste the mud, and the mysterious atmosphere of the gods and gods in the hall finally dissipated, and they began to discuss countermeasures. ..., the discussion can't be deepened, there is a question that can't be avoided, everyone has to look at Li Shi, the annotator in the corner of the hall has a pen in his hand, engrossed, waiting for the emperor to explode again, this is an interesting anecdote that can stay in the history books, well, it's just an anecdote......

What's the problem? That is, if Yongzheng is about to finish, who will sit on the dragon chair? No, who should the emperor like?

"Hongli was secretly appointed by Yongzheng early, he wants to get the position, the government and the opposition have no objections, the hearts of the Manchu and Han people are one, and it is difficult for me to be manipulated by Yinghua, so he is by no means a suitable candidate."

"It is impossible to choose Yongzheng's brother, so it is difficult for Hanchen to accept, and Manchu himself is no longer used to his brother and brother earlier. Even if Yongzheng is not right, his son must ascend the throne in order to get the support of the Manchurians, and the new emperor must at least have someone to support him. ”

"Then there are only two people......"

"No, in fact, there is only one person, can Hongtian help him up? No, only Hongshi, what we need is a Manchu emperor who has the ability to sit firmly on the dragon chair. ”

Xue Xue and Chen Rice followed the original idea of Li Xi fiddling with the Kangxi throne, and after some discussion, they had already put out a candidate.

The two naturally don't know, although the starting point is different, they coincide with the Manchu clan relatives and ministers.
