Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 140 What is Goose Plucking?

Having a child should be like Zhu Jinsong, Qian Deaf old dog is really praising Zhu Jinsong, but this is not the case at all when Zhu Jinsong's words fall into Zhu Jinsong's ears.

This is the same as Cao Cao said that having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou - Cao Cao failed to beat Sun Quan, and pointed at Sun Quan in a hurry and said you are my son!
This is a typical case where you can't beat your hands and take advantage of your mouth.

Of course, Zhu Jinsong decided to be magnanimous for once, not to be as knowledgeable as the old dog Qian Deaf for the time being, after all, he didn't have that American time.

Because Zhu Jinsong, the emperor of Ming Dynasty, is really too busy.

According to the news sent back by the members of the Tiandihui on the side of Guangdong Thirteenth, the fleet from France has arrived in Guangzhou, and is preparing to go north to Denglai after completing the supply.

In the entire fleet, apart from the six French warships that were going to be sold to Ming Dynasty, there were more than 200 French barbarian nobles who planned to go to Shandong to visit the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

In addition, Zhu Erdan was about to take down the whole of Zhejiang.

The army under Zhu Zhongqu in Zhejiang Province really dares to fight, and the artillery and guns in his hands are not bad. If you say that the army of the deaf old dog fighting for money should be easy, simple and enjoyable, but compared with the Ming army who copied the model of the Huajiajia army, All I could do was sigh, "Ji Sheng Yu, He Sheng Liang."

Sun Tzu's Art of War is clearly written, "That's why you roll your armor and move forward, stay day and night, do double roads, and strive for profit for a hundred miles...The strong one comes first, and the tired ones last, and the method is eleven." That is to say, one hundred Only about one tenth of the soldiers can actually reach the battlefield, and most of the rest have to run away.

Therefore, the army under Zhu Zhongqu did not dare to conduct hundreds of miles of raids, let alone night raids. Facing the large-scale penetration and night raids of Zhu Erdan's troops, Zhu Zhongqu's troops could only retreat. After retreating again, Zhu Zhongqu's Ming court also moved the capital again and again.

First moved from Lin'an Mansion to Shaoxing Mansion, and then built Jinhua from Shaoxing. Later, seeing that Jinhua could not be kept, Zhu Zhongqu simply moved the capital of "Daming" to Wenzhou Mansion.

It's just that Zhu Zhongqu, the "Emperor of Ming Dynasty", can bear it again and again, but Zhu Zhongqu, the emperor, can bear it, but these bigwigs in the court can't bear it anymore.

Going further south, you will arrive at Lin Shuangwen's site in Fujian—what's the difference between Lin Shuangwen's site and Zhu Jinsong's site?Isn't it still the same to be beaten as a local tyrant and divide the land?

Therefore, not only the bigwigs in the court began to fight, but even the bigwigs from the Ruan, Huang, Mei, Dai, and Xu families began to dislike each other.

Especially Xu Chengzong, the leader of the Xu family, and Dai Yongming, the leader of the Dai family.

Xu Chengzong and Dai Yongming were the first to plan to join Zhu Jinsong, and they even had this idea after hearing that Zhu Jinsong played the banner of the fifth grandson of Emperor Chongzhen.

Xu Chengzong's ancestors once served as Minister of Rites during the Chongzhen period, a scholar of the Eastern Liao Dynasty, and a cabinet assistant. The Xu family's family business was also accumulated little by little. Don't panic at all.

Dai Yongming was similar, even the most active anti-Qing family among the five big families-Dai Yongming's ancestors had a deep hatred with Qian Deaf Old Dog's ancestors, and whoever could kill Qian Deaf Old Dog would be the Dai family's benefactor.

It's a pity that with the Xu family and Dai family alone, they still can't beat the Ruan, Huang, and Mei families, so they missed the best opportunity, so that they can only follow the Ruan, Huang, and Mei families to retreat and retreat.

Until the "Daming Court" moved its capital to Wenzhou Prefecture, Xu Chengzong and Dai Yongming finally couldn't sit still.

"The day before yesterday I moved from Lin'an to Shaoxing, yesterday I moved from Shaoxing to Jinhua, and today I moved from Jinhua to Wenzhou. Dare I ask Grand Master Ruan, where should I move tomorrow?"

Xu Chengzong stared at Grand Master Ruan with an unfriendly expression, and said mockingly: "Emperor Chongzhen hanged Meishan, but our emperor of Ming Dynasty moved the capital again and again. No wonder Zhu Jinsong mocked our emperor of Ming Dynasty as a runaway emperor in the Ming newspaper, and said our emperor It is absolutely impossible for the Ming Emperor to be a descendant of the Chongzhen Emperor."

Grand Master Ruan snorted coldly and said, "Then what do you think? Do you want to surrender to that traitor Zhu Jinsong?"

Xu Chengzong glanced at Grand Master Ruan, and continued to taunt: "A traitor at a bite? If Zhu Jinsong just occupied Shandong, it would be fine for you to be a traitor at a bite. Now he has already occupied half of the world, and he has shown the potential of a dragon. You are still here, one traitor at a time? Grand Master Ruan, you are so proud of yourself! Besides, what’s wrong with surrendering to Zhu Jinsong?”

Speaking of this, Xu Chengzong simply pointed to the person in charge of the Huang family, "Da Ming Town Duke" Huang Liangji, and said, "Grandpa Huang led troops to attack Denglai from the sea. What happened?"

Huang Liangji sank, snorted coldly, and didn't speak, but Xu Chengzong didn't mean to let Mr. Huang off at all. Instead, he continued: "In the past, your Huang family saved a huge family business by selling salt, even if it's gone. Those lands, don’t you, Mr. Huang, not be able to do other things?”

After finishing speaking, Xu Chengzong looked at the speakers of the other families, and said: "And your Ruan family, Mei family, Dai family, which of our families can't live without such a poor land? "

After being told by Xu Chengzong, Grand Master Ruan, Mr. Huang and the other two were a little moved by what they said.

That's right, none of our families lived on that bit of broken land. It's understandable to say that the sages and gentry in the north fought Zhu Jinsong to death for the land, but our few families What are you drawing?
In the worst case, just hand over the land to that surname Zhu, and just concentrate on building his own workshop—that surname Zhu doesn’t allow us to own a large piece of land, so why can’t he prevent us from buying yards?
The ground is a guarantee for a comeback in case of bad luck, and the yard is the same.

Thinking of this, Grand Master Ruan couldn't help but exchanged glances with the other speakers, and said tentatively, "How about... let's open the city gate and welcome the heavenly soldiers into the city?"

……

Zhu Jinsong looked at Ke Zhiming in bewilderment: "They surrendered just like that?"

Ke Zhiming's face was full of pain, but he had to answer honestly when faced with Zhu Jinsong's question: "Yes, Zhu Zhongqu first issued an abdication edict, and then opened the city gates to take the sheep with his meat." This ceremony welcomes the Second Young Master's army into the city."

Ke Zhiming could almost imagine how those unscrupulous bigwigs in the Ming Dynasty Hall would mock him.

"The rebels in Zhejiang are very different from the ones we have come into contact with before?"

"Their flintlock guns and artillery are no worse than our Ming's?"

"The people of Zhejiang are very supportive of Zhu Zhongqu?"

"Do they have the manufacturing drawings and documents of the treasure ship?"

"..."

The point is that there is no way to refute it.

How to refute?Could it be that it was the emperor who said that there was a hard problem at the beginning, and the decision to completely solve these separatist forces was also made by the emperor.

Isn't that nonsense!

What made Ke Zhiming even more distressed was that as Zhu Zhongqu, who occupied Zhejiang, surrendered to Daming, other rebels who occupied Hunan, Jiangxi, Sichuan and other places also sent people to send letters of surrender.

Anyway, if you can't beat it, it would be better to surrender directly.

Therefore, almost the whole of Jiangnan depends on the spread.

The reason for using almost but not all of them is that Mei Chunyao who occupied Guangdong and Bai Ziqi who occupied Guangxi did not surrender directly, but ran away with a group of men.

Mei Chunyao chose Borneo in Nanyang, where there was originally a Lanfang Republic. Mei Chunyao felt that with the army under his hands, there was still a good chance to build a country overseas.

And Bai Ziqi chose Annan as his target.

Bai Ziqi first sent someone to contact Li Weiqi, the last emperor of the Li Dynasty after Annan, and then directly marched into Annan under the banner of restoring the Li family.

As for Guangdong and Guangxi...Mei Chunyao and Bai Ziqi respectively sent someone to send a letter to Zhu Jinsong, saying that you won the fight for world hegemony, and that Guangdong/Guangxi is also owned by your Emperor Ming. /Bai has gone overseas since then, I hope you can treat the people well, if there is a chance in the future, maybe we can sit down and have a drink together.

In this way, Zhu Jinsong has recovered sixteen of the eighteen provinces in Han, except for Qinghai, Gansu, Duomousi Xuanweisi, Wusizang Xuanweisi, Zhili, and Liaodong, which have not yet been recovered. Province.

This emperor of the Ming Dynasty was more or less justifiable.

It's just that with the gradual recovery of the land in the south of the Yangtze River, a lot of new problems have also been placed on Zhu Jinsong's desk.

First of all, is Daming going to move the capital to Jinling?

For these bigwigs in the Ming court, if Zhu Jinsong, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, directly killed the old dog Qian Deaf and sent troops to recover Beiping, then the capital of the Ming Dynasty would undoubtedly have to be Beiping.

The problem is that Old Dog Qian Deaf sent his fifteenth elder brother Yongyan to lead most of the Eight Banners of Mizhou to fight Gurkha. Zhu Jinsong, the emperor of Ming Dynasty, stated in advance that as long as Old Dog Qian Deaf sent troops to fight Gurkha, he would not respond. Zhili used troops.

Therefore, Jinling became the first choice in the eyes of the bigwigs in the Ming Dynasty.

It's a pity that Zhu Jinsong never thought about moving the capital. Even if he wanted to move the capital, he had to move from Jinan to Beiping.

Another problem is that the French nobles have arrived in Denglai and are now coming to Jinan.

So Zhu Jinsong had a headache.

If it is simply to send people to take these French nobles to eat, drink, and visit scenic spots, it is very easy to handle. The problem is that according to Zhu Jinsong's temperament of plucking wild goose, he can still let go of more than 200 French aristocrats. fat sheep?
Don't know what is plucking wild goose?

How simple, after catching a wild goose, pluck out a feather, let the feather fly away, and throw the wild goose into the pot. This is the so-called wild goose plucking.

In order to turn more than 200 French fat sheep into Ge You, Zhu Jinsong directly summoned all the big shots under his command.

After everyone arrived, Zhu Jinsong took the lead and said: "The ones who followed Pierre this time are more than 200 French nobles, big and small. So, how can I make these more than 200 French nobles work for me?"

After thinking for a while, Zhu Jinsong continued: "By the way, there are men and women among these nobles, and the women don't necessarily have to be the relatives and family members of some dignitaries. They may be nobles themselves and have their own fiefdoms. So don't underestimate people."

Hearing what Zhu Jinsong said, Zeng Cheng couldn't help but burst out laughing. After laughing enough, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I think you think too much about those French nobles."

Zhu Jinsong asked suspiciously, "How?"

Zeng Cheng replied with a smile: "Back to the emperor, I think that no matter whether those women are relatives of French dignitaries or they are nobles themselves, they can't change the fact that they are women. As long as they are women, there is no one who doesn't like jewelry and jewelry. clothes."

"So, I thought that someone could take them to the shops in Jinan City, especially those shops that sell jewelry, clothes, rouge and gouache."

"As for the men among the French nobility..."

Speaking of this, Zeng Cheng frowned again and said, "If they are all like Pierre, it will be troublesome."
