The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Su Kesaha, Sony, Aobai, and Hong Chengchou all agreed, saying that Tu Hai was more suitable.

The two people mentioned by Bumbutai are both men with outstanding military exploits.

Among them, Tu Hai was born in the Ma Jia family and was under the Zhenghuang Banner of Manchuria.In the second year of Shunzhi, he started a pen post style and moved to the National Academy of History to study.

Later, he was promoted all the way to the high position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment and Prince Taibao.

He was once deposed by Emperor Shunzhi for his faults, and was not promoted to Manchuria Zhenghuang Banner Gushan Ezhen until Kangxi ascended the throne.

The real Zhenghuangqi is a good slave, a member of Aixinjueluo's family.

When he was young, he had been on the battlefield and made many military achievements.

Only then did the promotion go smoothly!

Of course, compared to military merit, Yue Le is better than Tu Hai.

Yue Le used to accompany Hauge and Aobai to conquer Sichuan and defeated Zhang Xianzhong, and also accompanied the army to conquer the grasslands west and south to the south of the Yangtze River.

I have fought for most of my life!

Logically speaking, Yue Le is more suitable than Tu Hai for leading the army in the south.

But the problem is that Yue Le belongs to the clan. He is the grandson of Qing Taizu Aixinjueluo Nurhachi, the fourth son of Rao Yumin County King Aixinjueluo Abatai, and a serious Qing clan.

There is also a princely title of Prince An on his head!
Still the owner of Zhenglan Banner!
With such a big Buddha, who would dare to let him out?

Yue Le is already a prince now, and he is still a princess. If he goes south to fight and wins, he will return home.

Come on, how should I reward you?

There is no seal!
Could it be that the dragon chair under Kang Mazi's butt is given away as a reward?
This is why Hong Chengchou and others have said that Tu Hai is more suitable.

War is an extension of politics. As officials of the imperial court, they should not only consider war matters, but also political gains and losses.

Bumbutai heard this, nodded and said.

"Tuhai is indeed good, but I'm afraid he can't compare to Yue Le in terms of military strategy!"

Sonny added.

"Perhaps the Empress Dowager can also ask Governor Hong to accompany the army as a staff officer to advise Tu Haidu on military strategy."

As soon as Sony finished speaking, everyone's eyes lit up.

That's right, since Tuhai is a little hip in terms of military strategy, wouldn't it be enough to give him a deputy who is good at military strategy?
If one Hong Chengchou is not enough, then a few more, such as Li Guoying, Zhao Liangdong, Sun Sike, Yue Shenglong, can all be assigned to Tu Hai as his assistants!

Tuhai only needs to be in the middle of scheduling, do a good job of supervising the army, and overall planning work!

It is up to those Han Chinese to command the front of the battle and charge into the battle.

If the battle to the south can be won, the credit will naturally be due to Tu Hai.

I don't believe that a group of Han people like Hong Chengchou dare to compete with Tu Hai, a Manchu!

If you lose the battle, you can shirk your responsibility, right? !

A group of people discussed the matter of sending troops to the south to seek rebellion, and decided that Tu Hai would be the general, Hong Chengchou, Li Guoying, and Zhao Liangdong would be the deputy.

Dispatch [-] troops from the Eight Banners of the capital, including [-] Manchu heavy steps and [-] Manchurian cavalry.

Order 3000 people from the Chaoha Camp in Diaowu Town, carrying [-] red-clothed cannons.

There are a total of [-] large and small artillery such as tiger squatting guns, mortar guns, Flang machine guns, and imitation field guns of the Ming army.

And Zhili, Ganshan, Henan, Shanxi, Hubei, Shandong, Lianghuai... 20 troops from the Green Battalion went south!

This is the handwriting of the Qing court, and hundreds of thousands of troops marched south at every turn, pressing to the south.

If the fighting power of the 20-odd army can really be brought into play, Zhu Hongyu might not even dare to confront Man Qinggang.

One is fear of defeat, and the other is fear of a miserable victory!
Under the control of Bumbutai, Kangxi used his seal on the imperial decree of troop deployment.

The imperial decree to dispatch troops was sent from the capital, and was sent to the place at a speed of eight hundred miles.

After discussing the war of going south to seek thieves, the Qing court discussed Wu Sangui again.

Geng Jingzhong's rebellion caught the entire Qing court off guard!
But Geng Jingzhong's strength is limited after all, even if he rebels, at most it will affect Jiangxi and Zhejiang, the two neighboring provinces.

But Wu Sangui is different!

The Guanning Army in Wu Sangui's hands can even be said to be the most capable army in the entire Eight Banners system.

Even the Eight Banners of Manchuria and Mongolia in the hands of the Qing court, there is a high probability that they are not the opponent of Wu Sangui's Guan Ning army.

Moreover, Wu Sangui's influence is not limited to the three provinces of Yunnan, Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan. A large number of local officials are "West Selected Officials".

Historically, the Qing government mixed sand into the three provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan for more than ten years. When the San Francisco Rebellion broke out, the entire three southwestern provinces changed their flags instantly.

Let alone now?

Now Wu Sangui's control over the three southwestern provinces will only be stronger than during the San Francisco Rebellion in history.

If Wu Sangui also followed Geng Jingzhong's example and wanted to rebel against the Qing and restore the Han family, then the Qing court would not only lose the entire southeast.

Wu Sangui may lead troops into Hanzhong, Guanzhong, and Huguang at any time.

At that time, it will not be the erosion in the southeast, but the entire southern half and the northwest will also be erosion.

For the Qing court, the most important thing at present is to appease Wu Sangui first.

In any case, Wu Sangui cannot be called to rebel!

Bumbutai said.

"King Pingxi sits in the southwest and stabilizes the frontiers of the Qing Dynasty.

"In the Qing Dynasty, meritorious deeds must be rewarded, mistakes must be punished, King Pingxi's birthday is approaching, the court should also show something!"

"Gentlemen, do you have any suggestions?"

"Speak freely!"

Bumbutai wanted to appease Wu Sangui first, but he didn't know what to give, so he asked.

Hong Chengchou suggested.

"Perhaps the Empress Dowager sent Wu Yingxiong, Prince Pingxi's son, and Princess Jianning to Kunming with some gifts to celebrate King Pingxi's birthday."

Bumbutai frowned, but then eased up.

On the contrary, there is a little more smile between the brows.

Because, what Hong Chengchou said was only Prince Pingxi's son and Princess Jianning, but no one else.

His meaning was very clear, the eldest son and the princess could be released, but Wu Sangui's eldest grandson could not be released, and he still had to stay in the capital as a hostage.

In this way, it can be regarded as the imperial court showing favor to Wu Sangui!

But the imperial court still controls Wu Sangui's eldest grandson as the hostage.

Ao Bai at the side spoke.

"Queen Mother, if you want to let go, then let everyone in Pingxi Palace go back!"

"After all, help people to the end, and send Buddha to the West!"

"If you want to show kindness to King Pingxi, then simply finish the task, and do half of the task, but the loss outweighs the gain."

Bumbutai couldn't help frowning, but Hong Chengchou at the side was somewhat enlightened.

For a hero like Wu Sangui, a proton has almost no control over him.

If he really intends to rebel, the protons in the hands of the court are actually useless.

If he is killed, he will be killed, he doesn't care!

It's just a son, it dies when it dies, and it will be reborn in the future.

It's just a grandson. If you have a son, are you afraid of not having a grandson?

Instead of letting Wu Yingxiong and Princess Jianning go, but still wanting to control Wu Sangui's grandson, it's better to just let them go.

Sell ​​it to Wu Sangui, so as to ensure that the southwest of the Qing Dynasty is safe for the time being.
