Chapter 63 The Unexpected Battle Situation (4)
Huang Shu quickly looked out the door and saw that there was no one, then he said, "Sir General, do you know the fact that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty personally led the army?"
Li Guoying nodded: "Originally, I know that the general wanted to capture the emperor in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect that the general would die young. But we were going to surrender to the Qing Dynasty anyway. What could this have to do with us? Does the emperor dare to be an enemy of the Qing Dynasty?"
Huang Shu shook his head: "Mr. Li doesn't know that the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty really dare not be enemies with the Qing Dynasty. However, the emperor did not know the advantage of the Qing Dynasty's military. He just acted alone. You tell me why Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing were killed a few days ago. It was not because he forced the emperor to make good friends with the Qing Dynasty and used the strategy of using the enemy to quarrel to anger the emperor, and then he was killed."
Li Guoying said oh, only he knew that Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zeqing and others were killed. The general raised anger because there were traitors in the court. Unexpectedly, the emperor himself was the one who actually killed Liu.
"Now that the two towns have been killed, no one of the civil and military officials in the Ming Dynasty dares to speak out about peace with the Qing Dynasty. The regent of the Qing Dynasty is very talented and strategic. Sooner or later, the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty will have a battle. Jin Shengheng, Zhang Yingyuan and others are determined to surrender to the Ming Dynasty again, which is equivalent to being an enemy of the Qing Dynasty. If Lord Li can remove them and surrender more than 200,000 troops to the Qing Dynasty together, what a great achievement."
Li Guoying was moved by the words, but he was still a little hesitant: "Mr. Huang, my army and several generals are not as strong as Jin Shengheng and others. How can I get rid of them?"
Huang Shu lowered his voice: "Capture the king first, sir, just..." Huang Shu's voice behind him was so low that he was inaudible.
At the same time, a group of military generals who wanted to surrender to the court also came to Jin Shengheng's temporary residence in the city. As soon as they entered the residence, Jin Shengheng immediately ordered his personal soldiers and said, "Go, lift He Da's imprisonment immediately and invite Lord He."
"Follow the order."
After He Tengjiao was caught by Zuo Liangyu in Wuchang, he did not have too strict control at first. However, after He Tengjiao wanted to run away several times, Zuo Liangyu also became strict control at He Tengjiao. However, now Zuo Liangyu is dead, and He Tengjiao has become no one to pay attention to. After a while, He Tengjiao was invited by Jin Shengheng's personal soldiers.
"Sir, please give me a seat."
A group of generals respectfully gave He Tengjiao to the position of the top leader. He Tengjiao couldn't touch his head and asked, "What are you doing?"
"This..." Jin Shengheng became a little embarrassed, and the generals all lowered their heads, not daring to look at He Tengjiao's face. A few days ago, they regarded him as prisoners, but now they are asking to come to the door. No one will be embarrassed, and they are likely to be under He Tengjiao's rule in the future.
Seeing that no one had any intention of explaining to He Tengjiao, Jin Shengheng had to bite the bullet and said, "Sir, that's right, the Grand Marshal unfortunately passed away yesterday. After discussion, we are willing to return to the Ming Dynasty."
"Zuo Liangyu is dead." He Tengjiao hardly believed his ears. He looked at the generals one by one. From their expressions, He Tengjiao confirmed that the matter was true. He wanted to laugh and cry. Finally, he resisted the agitation and said, "You are willing to return to the road. Of course, I am very welcome. I will write a memorial and arrive in Nanjing at an accelerated speed of 800 miles."
Jin Shengheng looked at everyone, put down the big stone in his heart. With He Tengjiao's guarantee, they basically didn't have to worry about the court's dissatisfaction. Jin Shengheng hurriedly said, "Sir, don't have to go to Nanjing. Now the emperor is in charge of the army and stays in Anqing."
"What, the emperor is personally in the army, it's outrageous. What kind of food does the cabinet do? How can it trap the emperor in danger?" He Tengjiao was so anxious that he almost jumped up, and was very disobedient.
Jin Shengheng, Zhang Yingyuan and his group looked at each other in a glance. They were all about to surrender to the emperor, so what else would the emperor have to do?
Zhang Yingyuan said carefully: "Sir, the emperor is as stable as Mount Tai in Anqing."
He Tengjiao was stunned at this moment. He was too concerned about the safety of the emperor just now, so he forgot that Zuo Liangyu's army no longer poses a threat to the emperor. Then he remembered that this time the emperor personally fought and collapsed Zuo Liangyu's hundreds of thousands of rebels in one fell swoop. The emperor's reputation might have risen to an unprecedented level. Ordinary people would not care whether Zuo Liangyu could die of illness or not, it was a matter of the last doubt whether the emperor could win. They would only see the emperor personally fight, and even the arrogant Zuo Liangyu was defeated, which was undoubtedly extremely beneficial to the revival of the Ming Dynasty.
He Tengjiao's eyes turned several times and found that there were still many generals who were not here. He asked: "General Jin, why did I not see General Li and the others?"
Before Jin Shengheng answered, Zhang Yingyuan said angrily: "Sir, don't mention them anymore. These people forget their ancestors. They want to join the Tartars."
He Tengjiao was shocked: "What? They want to surrender to the Tartars. No, they are troops of the Ming Dynasty. How can they surrender to the whole people?"
Jin Shengheng said disapprovingly: "Everyone has aspirations, why bother sir?"
He Tengjiao looked stern: "Nobody talks, everyone has their own ambitions. They want to surrender to the Tartars, which is the mortal enemy of the Ming Dynasty. How did the two Lius beheaded by the emperor? Don't you all know?"
Jin Shengheng suddenly remembered that one of the two Lius was charged with the killing of the Tartars, and he was shocked and almost made a big mistake. If Liu Guoying and others were allowed to leave, even if the emperor exempted them from the charge, he would probably leave a knot in his heart. He asked guiltily: "Sir, since that's the case, I don't know what we should do?"
"Yes, sir, what should we do?" Everyone shouted. Even if they were too late, when they saw He Tengjiao mentioning the matter between Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing, they knew that it was inappropriate to let Li Guoying and others leave at will, and these people would still compete with them for Zuo Menggeng's stay or leave.
He Tengjiao was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. He stroked his long beard several times before saying, "In this way, please see if you can advise them to change their minds."
Thinking of today's dispute, Jin Shengheng said: "Sir, these people are already determined and will definitely not change their minds."
"Since that's the case, there is no need to advise you. You should use thunder means." He Tengjiao said resolutely.
Everyone looked at each other several times. They didn't know that Li Guoying was also plotting against them. They suddenly wanted to swing the sword to their companions who had been with each other for more than ten years. They felt a little unreasonable. Jin Shengheng gritted his teeth and said, "Secretary of the Lord's orders."
"The Lord is solemn to follow the instructions of the Lord." The others also reacted and said in unison.
It is imperative to kill Li Guoying and others. No matter how good their friendship with Li Guoying and others were, they would not be allowed to retreat. Otherwise, as long as He Tengjiao added one more sentence to the memorial, their fate would be unpredictable.
