I, Jiajing, join the Ming Emperor chat group

Chapter 173 The Battle of Changsha is over, Zeng shaved his head and applied to fight!

Which of our descendants in the Qing Dynasty can spare their lives to help me at this moment?
After sighing and organizing his words, Qianlong spoke again and explained: "Xianfeng, take care of yourself. Anyway, the Qing Dynasty did not perish in your generation, so you don't have to worry."

Xianfeng:?
What do you mean?
Xianfeng obviously didn't understand Qianlong's intention.

Seeing Xianfeng's confused expression, Qianlong couldn't help but sigh, and then said: "It's not that I, the ancestor, don't want to help you, it's because the problem is really big."

"I also have some difficult matters here. This communication with the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty is also for..."

Therefore, Qianlong also explained his situation.

Although Qianlong was a ruthless emperor, and his previous attitude towards Huang Taiji was somewhat unfriendly, but now when he faced his juniors, he originally wanted to hang up directly, but he felt a little soft-hearted and couldn't help but say a few more words. .

Just say a few words, it doesn’t cost money anyway.

After hearing Qianlong's words, Xianfeng also fell into a long-lost silence.

There was only one thought in his mind.

If you don’t want to help, then you won’t help. Why make up such a nonsense reason?
The Ming Alliance is coming to attack you, right?
How can you make it up so well?
Why didn't you say that Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han were here?
Xianfeng half believed and half didn't believe Qianlong's words.

After all, this is really a bit too advanced, even now, Xianfeng feels a bit ahead of his time... He was actually chatting with Lord Qianlong, which is really incredible and unbelievable.

Qianlong also saw the sense of doubt in Xianfeng's eyes. He couldn't help but feel helpless, but he didn't say anything. He was about to hang up the call. When another emperor asked, he heard Xianfeng suddenly say: "Master Qianlong. , Although I have never fought against foreigners, Seng Gelinqin and Zeng Guofan both have an army that can be said to be capable of fighting, especially Zeng Guofan's army, which has already gained a great reputation..."

Having said this, Xianfeng took a deep breath and tried to keep himself as calm as possible.

Although he is now beaten by foreigners and is running around, it does not affect the fact that he does have a capable army under his command.

After hearing Xianfeng's words, Qianlong frowned again.

Seng Gelinqin.

Zeng Guofan.

These two names...

Qianlong frowned and said: "Why are the Mongolians and the Han people, and what about us Manchus? Don't we Manchus have any outstanding heroes?"

Qianlong was a well-known imperial Manchu. In the Qianlong Dynasty, as long as you could speak Manchu fluently, even if you had mediocre qualifications, you could rise up and become Qianlong's favorite.

Therefore, after hearing these two names spoken by Emperor Xianfeng, he was shocked.

"Uh...this."

Emperor Xianfeng didn't know how to explain it. Anyway, the current situation was indeed like this. Then he ignored the matter without saying much, and then said: "Master Qianlong, let's not talk about this. Let's talk about it." Let’s do something important, just this aid thing.”

"alright."

Qianlong sighed.

never mind.

As long as soldiers can come, even the foreigner Qianlong pinched his nose and recognized it.

After thinking of this, Qianlong then asked hopefully: "When will the soldiers and horses arrive?"

Seeing this situation, Xianfeng immediately said: "Master Qianlong, I have a request. If you can agree to my request, I will send troops immediately."

Qianlong raised his eyebrows: "What's the request?"

"I want to go there too, and I want to take refuge with you!"

Xianfeng's eyes were full of fear, and he said to Qianlong: "Also, after I put down this 'Ming Alliance' for you, I hope Qianlong can send troops to help me fight the foreigners!"

Qianlong originally thought it was some big deal, but didn't expect this?So without any hesitation, he nodded immediately and said: "No problem, I promise you!"

"Okay, I'll clean up now and come right away!"

Xianfeng was overjoyed, and then a pop-up window appeared in front of him.

[You have agreed to Aixinjueluo Hongli's request for assistance, please select your army. 】

In front of him, an army that could be selected immediately appeared.

Seeing this, Xianfeng did not hesitate to select more than 3 soldiers from Seng Gelinqin and nearly [-] troops from Zeng Guofan's Hunan Army.

Of course, these are all direct descendants of their headquarters.

During the campaign, Senggelinqin was able to command nearly 20 troops, while the peak army commanded by Zeng Guofan numbered more than 30.

However, if all these 50 people are transferred away, then the Xianfeng Dynasty will no longer have to mess around. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is still making trouble in the south. If these 5 people are removed, Zuo Zongtang and Li Hongzhang can maintain stability. Anyway, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has already Grasshoppers are basically post-autumn, and there is no problem if they die two years later.

If nothing else works, why not just sign a treaty with the foreigners and ask them to help?

Although Emperor Xianfeng had decided to take refuge in the Qianlong Dynasty, after all, it was his own world, so Emperor Xianfeng was still embarrassed to take action.

After making the selection, Emperor Xianfeng chose himself. After thinking about it, he brought his favorite concubine Yi Guifei (ie Cixi) with him.

After all operations were completed, Emperor Xianfeng took a deep breath, smiled, and ended his conversation with Qianlong.

He still had half an hour to provide operations. After half an hour, he took these [-] elite troops to assist Qianlong.

Emperor Xianfeng just said that it was because of the horse's hoof disease that he was proud of the spring breeze. He immediately cleared his throat and said with great energy: "My dear friends, please listen to the order!"

His voice did not sound like that of an emperor who was about to die in half a year.

The other ministers could see Xianfeng and Qianlong chatting. They were all stunned. After hearing Emperor Xianfeng's words, they woke up from a dream and bowed down one after another.

"The emperor's eldest son, Zai Yuan, Duan Hua, Jing Shou, Su Shun, Mu Yin, Kuang Yuan, Du Han, Jiao Youying, and others have been appointed to supervise the country on my behalf. Assist in all government affairs."

Xianfeng's heart had already drifted to the Qianlong Dynasty, and he had no intention of going here. Without any hesitation, he was about to let the emperor's eldest son supervise the country. By the way, he appointed the "Eight Ministers Gu Ming" and asked them to discuss it with the supervising country.

In history, this was the arrangement after Xianfeng's death.

It's a pity that the quality of his eight ministers who care about life is a bit low and their level is not up to standard. Cixi launched the "Xinyou Coup" and took over the highest power of the empire. From then on, he listened to politics from behind the curtain...

What?What is the emperor's eldest son Zai Chun, Emperor Tongzhi doing?
Tongzhi was only six years old, and Cixi was his biological mother. What could he do?
After arranging everything, Emperor Xianfeng was full of confidence and felt extremely relaxed.

Okay, go and seek refuge in the Qianlong Dynasty. All the mess in the Xianfeng Dynasty has nothing to do with me.

"set off!"

With the selection of Emperor Xianfeng, due to the defeat in the Battle of Baliqiao, Senggelinqin led his army to rest and recuperate, and Zeng Guofan, who was stationed on the front line, planned to attack Nanjing in one go and massacre the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. The same news arrived. [You have been selected by Emperor Xianfeng Aixinjueluo Yiqi. You will go to assist the Qianlong Dynasty in half an hour. Please be prepared in advance. 】

Seng Gelinqin and Zeng Guofan: "Huh?"

The two were shocked at the same time.

Seng Gelinqin felt much relieved. He had never beaten foreigners, so it would be good to go elsewhere.

Zeng Guofan was extremely shocked.

He has already suppressed the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and wants me to leave now?

No matter what they thought, they could not reverse Emperor Xianfeng's will. However, Zeng Guofan immediately reacted, summoned his fourth brother Zeng Guoquan, and ordered: "Yuanfu, don't go. You can stay here in my place and command." The remaining 20 troops must discuss with generals such as Hu, Li, Zuo, Luo, etc., and must not attack rashly, but fight steadily. Within five years, they will be leveled and the hair is growing!"

Zeng Guofan was very loyal to the Qing Dynasty. Although he had a heavy army and was about to leave, he still had to do the final work!

I had my head shaved and applied to fight!

……

"Bang, bang, bang!"

The sudden sound of cannons was like firecrackers, roaring noisily before dawn, and the flames tore through the entire dawn, like an early warning before black and white impermanence took their lives.

The continuous sound of artillery fire caused Chen Huizu, the governor of Huguang in the Qing Dynasty, to be very tortured and tortured. He couldn't help but cursed: "Is it possible that the artillery of this Ming thief is inexhaustible? It's already half the night, how can it still be used? It’s exploding!”

The sound of bullets came and went, and the shouts of killing were heard all over the place.

In fact, the first layer of the city wall in Changsha had long been torn down, but Chen Huizu was loyal to the Qing Dynasty and had built multiple sections of the city wall long ago to block the Ming army layer by layer, guarding Changsha to the death and waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

There are 10 Qing troops in Changsha. In Chen Huizu's opinion, they can last for at least a month!

"What's the battle report from the front line?!"

Chen Huizu couldn't help but ask, looking very nervous.

When he heard the Governor's question, the captured correspondent immediately shook his head and said to Chen Huizu: "Sir, I don't know! General Jingzhou just withdrew not long ago. It is said that he was seriously injured, and General Zhao and Liu The general's team has already reached the top, but the Ming army's artillery is so fierce that it can't be stopped at all!"

"Let Yongzhou Commander-in-Chief Chu Ruonei lead his troops to the south of the city. They must hold it. The south of the city is a dangerous place for our army. There must be no mistake!" Chen Huizu yelled.

"Yes!"

Under the mobilization, Yongzhou Commander-in-Chief Chu Ruonei urgently led eight thousand green battalion troops to the front line for reinforcements. However, when Chu Ruonei just arrived at the front line, he found that a dense mass of Ming troops had already rushed forward.

"Kill!"

"Raise your gun and shoot!"

"..."

Following a round of shooting in a line-up style, Chu Ruona's forwards, who were caught off guard, suffered heavy casualties in an instant.

"Ahh! My hand, my hand!"

The Qing soldiers whose hands were blown off were wailing, hiding behind the broken wall and roaring. While roaring, several shells also fell into the city wall, and the center blossomed in an instant!
A deputy general on the side looked horrified. He was spattered with blood and even had flesh and blood on his body. He couldn't help but panic and shouted: "General, the firepower of the Ming army is too fierce! They are coming up again. What should we do? ?!”

Chu Ruona, the commander-in-chief of Yongzhou Town, who had just been ordered to come, was now pale and his intestines were green with regret, but he had no choice but to take a deep breath and shouted: "Brothers, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty and the emperor, give me I'll hold on!"

After saying that, Chu Ruona became fierce and shouted loudly: "Hold the position and each brother will receive three taels of silver! Kill an outlaw and get five taels of silver! Those who die will be rewarded with 150 taels of silver!"

After hearing that there was money, the Qing soldiers who were still in panic immediately became fierce, condescending, holding the muskets in their hands, and immediately resisted with all their strength. Cannons from an unknown age also began to roar, and the battle lasted for half a month. After a while, the Ming army retreated one after another.

They actually held their position.

This made Chu Ruonei breathe a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but collapse on the ground, completely frightened.

"Count the people!"

As the order from the Yongzhou Commander-in-Chief was passed down, Chu Ruonei soon got the accurate figures.

Less than two hours after arriving at the front line, his brothers had already suffered more than 3000 casualties, which shocked Chu Ruonei.

"Damn it, when did I lead the elite? The casualties were so serious, but they didn't flee? What a miracle!"

Chu Ruona was puzzled, but he realized it after looking around.

The situation just now was a bit chaotic, and it was quite difficult for the defenders to escape.

Just when Chu Ruona took a deep breath and felt gloomy about the future, she suddenly discovered that at some point, among the ruins, there was a lot of... paper.

"Ok?"

Looking at this piece of paper, Chu Ruonei picked up a piece of paper, and then she was shocked!
There are letters urging surrender!
This surrender letter has pictures and texts, which seems to take care of the many illiterate soldiers in the Qing court. The paintings clearly show the invincible scene of the Ming Dynasty, and Chu Ruonei has read the book. , could understand the persuasion to surrender from above, and was immediately shocked.

"One million soldiers, one thousand generals?!"

Chu Ruona didn't know what to say anymore, she just felt a little scared, and at the bottom, there was a scroll that said, "Surrender with this surrender letter, and you will have a full meal and receive money."

broken.

Chu Ruona was stunned, and then looked up and found that many of his subordinates had secretly hidden the papers, including some middle- and lower-level officers.

Chu Ruonei swallowed and hid the piece of paper quietly, planning to raise her hands and surrender when she couldn't bear it anymore.

But just as Chu Ruonei was thinking this and taking a rest, he suddenly heard a burst of gunshots coming from Changsha City, causing a commotion.

Chu Ruona didn't know why, and soon encountered a defeated soldier who was running away. He quickly grabbed the defeated soldier and asked, "What's going on? What's going on in the city?"

"The Governor assigned the General Soldier of Yichang to defend the East City. The General Soldier of Yichang refused. The Governor killed the General Soldier. The third battalion of Yichang soldiers directly rebelled! They are attacking the Governor's Mansion! The General Soldier of Yunyang and the General Soldier of Appeasement and the Changsha Counselor are all involved in this redress, and we don’t know who is the loyal minister and who is the traitor, it has become a mess!”

The defeated soldier explained the matter clearly in one breath.

But Chu Ruona was dumbfounded. It took him a long time to react and shouted: "Quickly, send someone to find the Ming army and say that I, Chu Ruona, want to act righteously! Brothers, cut off your braids and follow me into Changsha City." , capture Chen Huizu alive!"

Although he was still fighting against the Ming army one second, it did not affect his submission to the Ming Dynasty the next second.

Afterwards, Chu Ruona did not hesitate and went straight to the already war-torn Changsha City. Not long after, Huguang Governor Chen Huizu committed suicide in the Provisional Governor's Mansion, and the Ming Dynasty flag was flying at the top of Changsha City.

　I still owe one more!
