Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 353 Wu Guogui, would you like to be the King of the West? (Seeking a monthly pass, asking for a subscription)

"Hahaha"

Just like all the spies on the stage and storytellers who were caught by the enemy and were already dying, Jia Liuzi's first reaction was not to cry and beg, but to laugh, and while laughing, he praised Wu Guogui One sentence: "This kind of fluffy tricks really can't hide the truth from His Majesty the King!"

So hanging!
Seeing that he was blindfolded, Wu Guogui let out a long breath in his heart.In fact, he is not a god who can pinch and count, and what he said with Jia Guozhu just now is bluffing. If Chenzhou City is the starting point, he has now penetrated more than 400 miles into the enemy's territory!Not to mention the smoothness along the way, and going further to the valley surrounded by mountains on three sides where Yingde County is located, isn't it a natural pocket formation?If Wu Xiaotu, He Tianran, and Li Zhongyi, these insidious and cunning people make a little trouble, then Wu Guogui will confess if he can't do it.

So before continuing to drill into the Yingde Valley, Wu Guogui had to blackmail Jia Liu.And although this Jia Liuzi is treacherous and a spy, he still lacks work experience and has not been well trained. He is an amateur spy. How can he resist Wu Guogui, an old fox and a tiger combined to blackmail him?The heart is broken in one fell swoop.

But he was still smart, laughed a few times, and after praising Wu Guogui, he immediately changed his identity and became a lobbyist. He smiled and said to Wu Guogui: "Your Majesty, but don't misunderstand Princess Ying." Well, she told He Junmen and Li Sima to do this, and she asked the officials to invite you to Yingde, not to harm you!"

"Hehe." Wu Guogui smiled, "Do you think I don't know who my little tu is?"

"Princess Ying is of course a heroine among women, and she is a woman's husband. Otherwise, she would not be able to keep the son of King Ying in Guangfu." Jia Liuzi said with a smile, "However. She is a female stream after all, and she is the wife of the Li family. No matter what, it is impossible to take over the old Wu family's shares in Republic Daming!"

"What do you mean?" Wu Guogui stared at Jia Guozhu.

Jia Guozhu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't forget that the current Daming is not the Daming of the old Zhu family, the emperor of the Zhu family is Xu Jun, and the three who really have the final say are Li, Zheng, Liu, Chen and Lu. This Wu family is also one of them!

Concubine Ying can secure her current seat, apart from her karma with His Royal Highness, it is because of the support of the Wu family.But now that the Wu family's mountain has moved, there is no way for Princess Ying to fill the vacant seat. Do you think her position can continue to be stable?In Prince Yi's Mansion, Prince Bei's Mansion, as well as the mansions of Chen and Lu, there are noble girls waiting to be married!

In addition, although His Royal Highness the Great Zhou Emperor is an enemy, he also hopes that someone from the Wu family can return to the Ming Dynasty to participate in the republic and make up for the vacancy of the Western King!And you, my lord, are the new Xi Wang of Ming Dynasty that the King and Concubine Ying expected! "

"Hmph!" Wu Guogui snorted, "Do you think I am a three-year-old child? The Wu family and the Li family are fighting for the world. The fight is for the world, and the decision is life and death!"

"No, yes, fighting for the world, deciding life and death is not the way of Yuanjun and Yuanchen. The way of Yuanjun and Yuanchen is republic, don't fight for the emperor, don't work hard, everyone will make a fortune together! Jiangshan Sheji is a big deal of joint stock , The world is not the emperor's family, several palaces have shares, the honorable ministers below also have shares, and the people and scholars below also have shares. And the special relationship between the palaces, ministers and the people and scholars below , is the key to the stability of the status of the palace and the ministers!
As far as the lower official Jia family is concerned, the Chinese and national scholars in Guiyang and Chenzhou were all promoted by the Jia family. With their support, the Jia family can enter the imperial court and guard the two states when they retreat. There is no need to worry about being punished. The Tian family unloads the mill and kills the donkey.

Your Majesty, if you return to the Ming Dynasty and become the Western King, you will have the help of national scholars and people from the half province of Hunan, and even have old relatives and friends in Guizhou and Yunnan.How can it not keep pace with the King of the South, the King of the North, the King of Ying, the King of Yi, and the King of Zhong?With the help of the king, the king and princess will be more stable.What do you think is the purpose of Princess Ying inviting you to Shaozhou Mansion? "

Jia Guozhu talked for a long time, but the meaning was actually one, to use shares to pull Wu Guogui to defect!

Wu Guogui remained unmoved, and said coldly: "Emperor Da Zhou is the adoptive father of this king, how dare you separate the father-son relationship between me and the emperor?"

"The Emperor of the Great Zhou will pass away soon!" Jia Guozhu shouted.

"Bold!" Wu Guogui shouted angrily, "Where is my son Shi Jue?"

"The baby is here!" Wu Shijue immediately agreed.

Wu Guogui pointed at Jia Guozhu, "Shijue, drag this detailed work away and kill him with one blow!"

"Yes!" Wu Shijue waved his hand and said to the left and right, "Take it for me!"

There were already several soldiers waiting to arrest him, and when they heard Wu Shijue's words, they rushed forward and captured the stunned Jia Guozhu, and were about to drag him away.Wu Guogui said to Wu Shijuan again: "Give him a whole body, don't need to raise your head to see him, come back quickly to participate in the military meeting after killing him!"

"Yes!"

Wu Shijue agreed again, then looked at the ashen-faced Jia Guozhu and said, "Sixth son, can you walk by yourself? If you can, let's hurry up. Die early and be reborn early!"

In Qingyuan County, Guangzhou Prefecture, on the plain close to the southern foot of Daluo Mountain and the west bank of Beijiang River, there is a large barracks called Qingyuan Camp, which is an exercise and training ground for the Guangdong National Army. , there are at least one town's troops stationed here all year round.

During this period of time, the security around this Qingyuan camp suddenly became a bit tighter than before, and dozens of miles around became restricted areas, and there were heavily armed Guangdong Nationalist Army soldiers standing guard.On the nearby Beijiang River, a long line of cargo ships came from time to time, moored at the pier dedicated to Qingyuan Daying, and then unloaded a large amount of grain, grass and equipment, and sometimes brought in soldiers from the brigade.

If someone is allowed to enter the Qingyuan camp, they will find that the camp has already become a sea of ​​red scarf soldiers!I don't know how many soldiers with red scarves on their heads and long guns on their shoulders were called to this camp from all over Guangdong.The original barracks were not enough for a long time, and even a part of the vast field where the battle exercises were held had tents set up!

In the center of this large camp area, above a small but sturdy bastion, the flag of "The Prince of England" symbolizing the highest authority of the King's Mansion in Guangdong is flying!
In the core area of ​​the bastion, all the guards inside and outside a strong government building were female soldiers recruited from Chaozhou and Shaozhou with flintlock guns on their backs.A female soldier leader in her thirties, with a somewhat enchanting figure and appearance, was at the gate of the yamen early in the morning on the first day of August, and stopped Jia Guozhu, who had not been "left in his body" for some reason, He was interrogating carefully in Chaozhou Mandarin, which was not easy to understand.

Jia Guozhu became a little impatient with her question, and shouted loudly: "Ms. Ye is almost done. I have an urgent military situation to report, and I have delayed a major event. The princess blames it, you can't afford it!"

The leader of the female soldier gave Jia Guozhu a white look: "Little six, leave the weapon behind and come with me!"

Jia Guozhu spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Where are there weapons? I have come here empty-handed for more than 100 miles!"

The lady in her early thirties looked at him, and then touched him with her hands to make sure there was no weapon before leading him into the heavily guarded yamen.

On the capital hall of the yamen, there is a large crowd at this time, He Tianran, Qu Dajun, Dai Zi, Jia Hanfu, Guo Jinbao, Zhang Xiaobao and others are all there!The main seat is empty, and behind the main seat, a bead curtain is hung symbolically, and behind the bead curtain sits Wu Xiaotu, Princess of England.

Wu Xiaotu frowned, and was listening to He Tianran's introduction to the military report he had just received - Wu Guogui's army had stayed north of Yingde County for two days!

At the same time, the rangers sent by Wu Guogui were still searching the mountains on both sides of the Beijiang River.There is also information that Wu Guogui's people are still building fortresses along the Beijiang River, and it seems that they want to be safe at every step.
At this moment, the official words of Mrs. Ye came from outside the Dutang: "I report to the princess, Jia Liu is back!"

Wu Xiaotu was stunned, "Quick, let him in!"

When Jia Guozhu heard Wu Xiaotu's words, he quickly lifted up his dirty robe, raised his legs and entered the capital hall, and saluted Princess Ying behind the bead curtain.

"Brother Jia Liu, what's going on?" Wu Xiaotu asked, "Did my father find out?"

"My lord, concubine, you are wise!" Jia Liu said with a sad face, "I still couldn't hide it from my father...but after I persuaded my father with good words, my father didn't ask for my life, and let my brother let him go. Officials.

It seems that your father really intends to change his family and return to the imperial court..."

Then, he elaborated on how he lobbied Wu Guogui, and told Wu Xiaotu all about it.

Wu Xiaotu said indifferently: "Brother Jia, you are really a lobbyist... Although this strategy was not completely successful, after all, it is a great achievement to lure my father to the vicinity of Yingde County."

"Thank you, princess."

Wu Xiaotu pondered for a while, then pondered: "It seems that my father has quietly retreated... Now Li Sima and Wang Sima on the northern line are in danger!"

The Li Sima and Wang Sima she mentioned were Li Zhongyi and Wang Leiyong, both of whom had their original official positions as the marching army Sima of the Guangdong Navy Jiedushi Division.

Now the Guangdong Navy's Jiedu Envoy has been withdrawn, and these two official positions have become the town commanders of the Guangdong National Army.However, Wu Xiaotu still used to call them "Sima" to highlight their special relationship with Li Xiuqing.

These two Sima are now ambush in Lianzhou and Nanxiong.According to the plan, they will attack Lechang in Guangdong and Yizhang in Hunan to cut off Wu Guogui's retreat.

As long as Wu Guogui is trapped in Shaozhou Mansion, Wu Xiaotu is sure to draw him to Daming.

And once Wu Guogui turned against him, her and Li Xiuqing's positions would be very stable.Whether it's Wu Xiaojiao or Yang Xiaohuan, they can only be small obediently.

But I didn't expect that Wu Guogui, a father, was too cunning to see through his daughter's plot
"Princess," Jia Hanfu and Mr. Jia said with a smile at this time, "your lord must be tempted, otherwise my little Liu would not be able to survive. There is something about pulling him to defect! Why don't I go again and persuade him well?" Advise him."

Wu Xiaotu said: "If my grandpa doesn't die, my father won't turn against him!" She sighed again, "But my grandpa may not be alive soon!"

"Princess, do you think the Great Zhou Emperor is in Jiujiang Mansion?" Jia Han asked again.

Now the communication between Guangdong and Jiangxi has been restored. Although it is not very smooth, Wu Xiaotu also knows that "Wu Sangui is suspected of being trapped in Jiujiang".

"No, my grandpa is not in Jiujiang." Wu Xiaotu shook his head, "If he wants to be in Jiujiang, my father will not come to steal Guangdong. If I guessed correctly, he should be in Hunan!" At this point, her beautiful eyes turned , looked at Wen Wu present, "What should I do next? Let's talk about it!"

He Tianran said: "We must send troops to chase after King Zhou's troops. If we don't chase him, he will use his troops calmly and eat up the two towns of Li Sima and Wang Sima!"

The two towns led by Li Zhongyi and Wang Leiyong are not model towns, and they cannot defeat Wu Guogui.

However, it will not be easy for Wu Guogui to eat them, unless the main force of the Guangdong National Army in Qingyuan does not go north.

Wu Xiaotu nodded: "Okay! Admiral He, you take the Seventh Army north. I'll be there soon!"

The designation of the Seventh Army was awarded to Guangdong by Li Zhongshan when he adjusted the establishment after defeating Geng Jingzhong.

Li Zhongshan's direct line in Nanjing is the first army, Chen Yonghua's Huaidong soldiers form the second army, Lu Sanhao's Yingtian army forms the third army, Liu Jinzhong's army forms the fourth army, and Li Fuchen's army becomes The Fifth Army, Zheng Jing's army was the Sixth Army, and the Guangdong Nationalist Army got the designations of the Seventh and Eighth Armies. Among them, the Eighth Army was taken to Guangxi by Li Jizhen, and the Seventh Army was in Qingyuan.

"Princess, are you going to lead the troops north?" He Tianran asked.

"We must go!" Wu Xiaotu said firmly, "My father will always fight for it. Besides, King Ying and King Nan are marching into Hunan! After we join forces with them in Hunan, we will be sure to besiege my father in Hengyang or Changsha. When the time comes, I'll go and persuade myself!"

To Wu Xiaotu, Wu Guogui is his father first, his opponent second, and he will eventually be pulled over as a backer.Otherwise, if Wu Yingxiong or Wu Shifan turned against each other and took the seat of King Xi, then she would have to exchange wives and concubines with Wu Xiaoying.
In addition, Yang Xiaohuan's elder brother, Yang Qilong, is now the supervisor of North Korea on the Qing side, controlling the entire vassal state!Moreover, he is also the major shareholder of Gonghe Daming, and he is about to turn against him, but it is Yang Dongwang!

At that time, Yang Xiaohuan may also be able to recuperate. In short, although Li Zhongshan's wives and concubines are not many, they are all "heavyweight", and Wu Xiaotu's status as the main wife is not stable.

She had to pull her father over for her husband!
And if possible, it is best to accompany Li Zhongshan back to the battlefield in a hail of bullets, so that he can justifiably suppress Wu Xiaojiao and Yang Xiaohuan.

The level of this "Republic Palace Fight" is really not low!
"Father, I came to report on the horse, and I found a Ming army in the direction of Nanxiong, and it is advancing at full speed to Lechang County!"

At the same time, Wu Guogui had already discovered Li Zhongyi's Cantonese army from Nanxiong!

At this time, Wu Guogui's main force had already marched to the vicinity of Qujiang, Fushou County, Shaozhou, only seventy or eighty miles away from Lechang.

King Chu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who was sitting on the side of the road and resting while eating dry food, heard his son's report, his expression remained calm, and he just asked: "Is there any news about Li Fuchen and Li Zhongshan? Also, is there any news about Jiujiang? And... King Qin's soldiers Where have you been?"

It turned out that Wu Sangui was also actively adjusting the deployment during this period of time.The biggest adjustment among them is to transfer Qin Wang Wu Yingqi's army to the south!

If Wu Yingqi's elite soldiers from Gansu and Shanxi were not dispatched, Da Zhou's plate would be overthrown by Da Ming!
"Li Fuchen and Li Zhongshan are already approaching Chaling Pass!" Wu Shijue said, "Grandfather has strictly ordered Jieshu to defend! In addition, Jiujiang is being besieged by Li Zicheng."

As he was talking, he glanced at Wu Shifan who was sitting next to Wu Guogui. Wu Shifan looked a little melancholy, and he was much thinner. He looked even more handsome, and it was even more distressing.

Wu Shijue paused for a moment, and then said: "King Qin's [-] troops are almost at Jingzhou!"

Wu Guogui sighed: "It's getting more and more lively. Hunan is going to become the main battlefield that will determine the future and destiny of my Wu family!"

As he said that, he looked back at Wu Shifan again: "Grandfather, why don't you take some troops and stay at the back of the Qujiang Palace?"

Of course, the meaning of the queen is to wait to be caught!
However, if he falls into the hands of Li Zhongshan, his life will not be in danger anyway, but he will go back to Hunan together. After the Hunan war is over, it may be difficult for Wu Sangui to protect him!

But Wu Shifan shook his head and said: "Uncle San, I appreciate your kindness, but I am the grandson of the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty after all, and now is the critical moment of the war between the Ming and Zhou Dynasties. If I am captured, the morale of the Great Zhou army will not collapse What? I can't do such a thing!"
