Chapter 122 Utilization Value

.The soldiers of both sides who were fighting fiercely naturally heard this fierce explosion. tt)f The rebels on the city wall saw a huge smoke rising from the middle of the Qing army. Although they didn't understand what was going on, they were still stunned. The black gunpowder weighing more than one ton exploded together, and its power was really shocking.

The Qing army did not take this opportunity to attack. They all stared blankly at the huge smoke and dust rising. Some people were confused, and more people felt sad. It was over. It was the high platform where the Governor and many generals watched the battle.

Liu Guoxuan, Li Tong, Niu Dashun, and Sun Gui were at the entrance of the tunnel, with a happy face. Liu Guoxuan couldn't help but pound Sun Gui: "Old Sun, you really have it."

To be honest, after igniting the fuse and evacuated the tunnel, except for Sun Gui's confident look, the other three were worried at all. Who knows if the tunnel has deviation? If the deviation is too far, the hard work of more than a month will not only be in vain, but may also lead to the unsecured city of Laizhou. Unexpectedly, when the explosion occurred, the platform in the distance quickly split into four people's eyes, and finally broke apart. Then smoke and dust rose. Although they couldn't see the specific situation clearly, all four people could be convinced that as long as Hong Chengchou stood on the platform, he would definitely be dead, otherwise Hong Chengchou's life would be too great.

Sun Gui covered the place where Liu Guoxuan hit him and cried out in pain, complaining, "Sir, you're too dark."

Liu Guoxuan smiled, Niu Dashun and Li Tong looked at each other and stretched out their fists together. Sun Gui was shocked, jumped away quickly, and shouted, "Hey, you two boys, don't learn any bad habits."

Niu Dashun and Li Tong saw Sun Gui jumping away, and then they retracted their fists in disappointment. Liu Guoxuan put away his smile: "Let's go, let's go back."

The Qing army camp ahead was already in chaos, and no one discovered the tunnel yet, otherwise the Qing army would definitely search wildly. If they did not leave in time, the Qing army would find out, I am afraid that the four of them would have to be chopped into meat sauce by the Qing army.

"Governor!"

"General!" "Prince!"

...There were all kinds of names, and all the living soldiers stumbled towards the original high platform and the current big pit. When they arrived at the edge of the pit, many soldiers desperately pulled the soil on the ground with their hands, trying to find their master. Except for the generals who were commanding the siege in front, almost all the senior officers of the Qing army were gathered on the entire platform.

The generals were found by their own personal soldiers. Lai Dian, Gao Di, Kong Xigui... These people stood closest to Hong Chengchou. At this time, their bodies were covered with blood. Many people even had limbs and heads separated. They were dead and could not die anymore. Hong Chengchou's heads were also found by their own soldiers. Some of them cried loudly. Some were standing there in a daze, muttering to themselves. The sky collapsed. How could it be?

Among these people, Kong Youde was lucky. When his personal soldiers pulled him out, Kong Youde's whole body was covered in scars, but he still breathed a sigh of relief. Geng Zhongming was commanding the Qing army to attack the city because he was commanding the Qing army to attack the city. In addition, Hu Daman was also avoiding the disaster. He raised several people. They were all commanding the Qing army to attack the city in front.

Before the rebels could react from the daze, the Qing army had already retreated. The steadily, Yi Yonggui saw that the high platform turned into a cloud of dust and smoke. He naturally knew what was going on. They retreated first. Once they retreated, Geng Zhongming had to retreat.

"Long live! Long live!" The rebels at the top of the city could guess something and cheered loudly.

That night, the Qing army camp was sad and bleak. Not only was the commander dead, but the military supervisor also died. There were so many generals dead. This news could not be concealed at all. Even if the Qing army was still strong, the soldiers were no longer in a fight. Geng Zhongming was determined to take over the position of the commander and did not dare to continue to attack the city. Otherwise, there might be soldiers mutiny on the battlefield. He had to huddle in the military camp, write a memorial, and report to the capital. Wait for Dorgon's orders.

Before Geng Zhongming's memorial was delivered to the capital, news of Hong Chengchou's death had already spread in Shandong. Many leaders of the rebel army who had planned to lie dormant were overjoyed when they heard the news and walked out of the mountains again.

When the news reached Henan and Shaanxi, the Dashun Army cheered even more. Hong Chengchou's reputation as a butcher resounded throughout the country. His reputation was mostly made up by the heads of various rebels. Even Li Zicheng suffered a great loss in Hong Chengchou's hands. Now Hong Chengchou died in the hands of the rebels he had wiped out before. It is a retribution.

Looking at the military newspaper in his hand, Wang Fu's face was full of surprise smiles. He was considering whether to send someone to assassinate Hong Chengchou, but he didn't expect that Hong Chengchou had died first.

It’s good to die, but it’s wonderful to die. Without Hong Chengchou, who else would be so familiar with the Ming Dynasty? Doer sent Hong Chengchou to wipe out the rebel army in Shandong. It was said that he could steal chickens and make money. Wang Fu was happy for a long time before he said to Tian Cheng standing next to him: “Tell me that Qian Qianyi entered the palace.”

"Abide by the order." Tian Cheng replied with a smile. Although he didn't know anything good, he felt relieved when he saw the emperor's happy face. After ordering the emperor's will, he came back and asked, "Master, why are you so happy?"

"I am naturally happy when a big traitor dies."

"Big traitor."

The big traitor, King Pingxi is counted as one, King Sanshun is counted as three, Hong Chengchou, etc., Tian Cheng couldn't remember who died for a while, so he had to laugh.

Qian Qianyi followed the eunuch with ease and walked through the numerous palaces of the palace. Although he was sixty-three years old, he was still blushed and had no old look on his face.

It is no wonder that he and Liu Rushi are white-haired and beautiful, but they are in love and love, not only in love but also in officialdom. As the Minister of Rites, he not only presided over the construction of the Martyrs' Temple and the Monument of Treacherous Treacherous, which won him a great reputation, but also was about to preside over the imperial examination. This was the first imperial examination in Hongguang Dynasty. In the future, everyone's students will be the teacher. This huge honor hits him. No wonder Qian Qianyi will be as he walks all these days.

Although many Donglin Party members secretly scolded him for forgetting his roots and only knowing how to please the emperor but not taking care of his fellow party members, Qian Qianyi didn't care. As the power of the Hongguang Dynasty became more and more consolidated, the Donglin Party members had gradually split. Of course, many people scolded him, but many people secretly showed goodwill to him. After the emperor announced that he was the chief examiner of the April competition, those Donglin Party members who had nephews to take the exam frequently walked towards the Qian Mansion. If you want to get his care, what's wrong with hugging the emperor's thigh? For the ministers, you must be loyal to the emperor. He is in his twenties and it is estimated that it is impossible to change the emperor in this life, so you can only hold the emperor's thigh for the rest of your life.

"I will meet the emperor, long live my emperor! Long live! Long live!"

"Qian Aiqing, please give me no gift. I have a note. Please take a look at it." Wang Fu handed Qian Qianyi the secret letter of Jinyiwei's report on Hong Chengchou's death to Qian Qianyi.

After Qian Qianyi thanked him, he took the secret fold and quickly looked at it, and an excited expression appeared on his face: "Hong Chengchou is dead."

As the Minister of Rites, Qian Qianyi naturally knew how much impact this pillar of the Ming Dynasty surrendered to the Qing Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty. It was under Hong Chengchou's advice that when the Qing army entered the pass, almost all the prefectures and counties near the capital surrendered without resistance. The former Ming officials who had originally surrendered to the Dashun Army turned to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. If the emperor had not personally led the expedition and annihilated Duoduo's army, no one would know whether this trend of surrender would have affected the south. However, Wang Fu could say with certainty that, if it were not for Dorgon's momentary mind and ordered the Han people to shave their hair and change their clothes, the south would have fallen into the hands of the Manchus without any resistance.

Although Dorgon's fever caused continued opposition from the south, it was not a good game for the Manchus, killing all the passionate Han people, and the rest were all slaves. Since there were no such literati in later generations, Manchus was watching for this and saying that this move consolidated the Manchus' righteous power, it was difficult to say happiness or sadness.

"Qian Aiqing, how many people in this dynasty are listed on the treacherous sect? "

When Qian Qianyi heard the emperor's question, he came back from his excitement: "Return to the emperor, the only people in this dynasty are Fan Wencheng, and Shang Kexi and the other two.



"Well, after you go back, you will also list Hong Chengchou."

"Yes, my servant follows the order."

"By the way, this matter should be spread in the palace newspaper, and Hong Chengchou's life experience will be written out, so that everyone can know how Hong Chengchou changed from a great Ming official to a notorious traitor. How much harm did this great traitor bring to the Ming Dynasty? With Hong Chengchou's example, he warned those officials in the north who were still working for the Manchus. It was not too late to stop at the cliff. If he was willing to resign from his official position, he would not pursue the crime of seeking favor with the barbarians in the future on the day of the king's return, and he would not be allowed to sue the prisoners of the barbarians and keep his reputation for life. If he did not resign, he could also do things for the Manchus in secret and serve the Ming Dynasty in secret. The Ming Dynasty would definitely reward him in the future. If he was still obsessed and stubborn, he would not die after the king's army recovered the lost land in the future, but the court would not let them go at all costs. The Jinyiwei would eliminate the traitors at all costs."

The emperor's words were full of murderous intent, and Qian Qianyi felt awe-inspiring. He secretly admired him. Poor Hong Chengchou was going to be used by the emperor when he died: "I obey the order, the emperor, who will write this writing?"

This is a letter of declaration of war against officials who surrendered to Manchus. If it is well written, it will shock many people. If it is soft and tasteless, it will not have any effect. Wang Fu asked back: "I wonder who you have at your disposal?"

"Your Majesty, I wonder what Wu Yingji is?" Qian Qianyi said.

"Wu Yingji is the one who writes about Liudu's anti-riotism and public disclosure." Wang Fu asked with a frown. There was no doubt that Liudu's anti-riotism and public disclosure was a bit imposing, but there were many far-fetched aspects, and the things the Donglin Party members did were not much nobler than Ruan.

"Yes, it turns out that the emperor also knows this person." Qian Qianyi immediately realized that the emperor seemed a little dissatisfied with this person, so he dared not say much, thinking about whether he would cut off his relationship with Wu Yingji in the future.
