Chapter 148

Everyone is willing to accept the order, but they are willing to surrender and show their trump card.

At this time, I found that the will was not given to them, so I was naturally unhappy, but it was not easy to attack.

Du Yinxi naturally did not. Regardless of the feelings of the generals of the Shun Army, he wanted to use the Shun Army and use the power of the Shun Army, so they needed to sincerely submit. There should be no grudge between the two sides.

During the Chongzhen period, the Ming Dynasty was consumed too quickly. By the time of the Southern Ming Dynasty, a group of mediocre officials were allowed to occupy high positions, resulting in repeated mistakes in decision-making and cheating.

However, the Southern Ming Dynasty was not without capable ministers. Among them, there were two talents of the prime minister, one was Du Yinxi and the other was Sun Kewang.

But Du Yinxi was always suppressed by He Tengjiao and never gotten to power, which finally made He Tengjiao die in anger.

Sun Kewang also had the talent of the prime minister, but he was ambitious and had too high self-confidence, and eventually went astray.

When Zhao Ming suggested recruiting the Fushun Army, Du Yinxi actually saw that the contradictions in the world were changed. The internal conflicts among the Han people had been reduced to secondary. The dispute between China and the barbarians became the main contradiction. Therefore, he intended to reverse the Ming Dynasty's attitude towards the Shun Army. He wrote a letter to recruit the Fushun Army, saying, "Since the two capitals fell, the elite of the country was lost, and the court had no available troops. Now the northern enemy is powerful and the army is difficult to stop, and the country is like a burden. I am worried. I recently heard that the rebellion was destroyed, and the remnants of his troops fled to Huguang. If Your Majesty recruited him, he would immediately collect 300,000 troops. The cause of revival was here. I know that the ministers in the court must say that the thieves broke Beijing, and the crime was unparalleled. Your Majesty must not be misled by this. Now with the power of Chu, the court cannot control the enemy and cannot handle the enemy. If you borrow the enemy's army and take it away with an edict, you will have the people of Chu again! It is also expected to meet with Jinling!"

The Longwu court was the first regime in the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty to change its strategy and unite the peasant army. This policy laid a solid foundation for the Yongli Dynasty to last for many years.

He Tengjiao and Du Yinxi were the first Ming Dynasty officials to contact the Shun Army. However, there is a difference in the overall situation. He Tengjiao was forced to join forces with the Shun Army, not actively recruiting the Shun Army, but Du Yinxi took the initiative to recruit the Shun Army, and really wanted to use the power of the Shun Army to restore Huguang and take the lead.

This determined that the two of them had completely different attitudes towards Shunjun. Seeing that Li Guo and others were unhappy, Du Yinxi hurriedly took out another memorial and handed it to Li Guo and others.

When Li Guo was watching, Du Yinxi smiled and said, "Just just announced the order, the generals already know Your Majesty's attitude, and this memorial is a memorial requested by our court."

Du Yinxi looked at Li Guo and others, "This court asked His Majesty to give General Li, General Gao, General Liu, General Yuan, General Tian and others to be marquis. Other generals also received the reward of the Count. In addition, the army was given the name of loyalty, stationed in Wuchang, and the iron scrolls of alchemy!"

Compared with He Tengjiao's ignorance, this was a world of difference. Li Guo and others were shocked. Tian Jianxiu and others hurriedly took the memorial and read it carefully.

At this time, Li Guo became a little uneasy, "How can we achieve such a great title without making any contribution?"

Everyone really wanted to unite with the Ming Dynasty. When they saw the Houfeng, they were excited, but they felt a little embarrassed and felt that virtue was not worthy of their position.

Du Yinxi said in a deep voice: "General Li can say this, which shows his loyalty and righteousness. Nowadays, you also know that the general should make great contributions, fight against the Northern Barbarians, restore the entire Chu, and repay Your Majesty's kindness!"

Li Guo and others looked at each other and bowed one after another, "We are willing to return to the Ming Dynasty and die for Your Majesty!"

At present, Li Guo asked someone to prepare three animals, incense table, and an alliance with Du Yinxi to fight blood, and to break arrows to make an oath, promising to change the Shun army into the Zhongzhen Camp.

After the oath was completed, Du Yinxi, Li Guo and others looked at each other and laughed and encouraged each other.

Du Yinxi immediately said, "Northern troops attack Zhejiang are very urgent. Your Majesty ordered Chu and Gan to respond and attack and divide the power of the northern enemy. The Qing army in Huguang only has 20,000 to 30,000 troops, and its troops are empty. Since the general has returned to Ming Dynasty, he should raise a large army and restore the land of Chu!"

When Li Guo learned that Du Yinxi was going to be granted a title for him, he felt that he had no achievements and got such a generous title. He was a little uneasy and worried that it would make people criticize him.

He heard Du Yinxi's words and immediately smiled and said, "I'm just thinking about it! I just don't know how to fight?"

Du Yinxi said: "There are three important places in Huguang, Wuchang, Xiangyang and Jingzhou! The general is now in Changde and south of Jingzhou. It is better to cross the Yangtze River quickly and seize Jingzhou, and get all the Chusan. Then attack in two ways, one way north to take Xiangyang, block the enemy from Yuzhou, so that the enemy cannot enter Huguang to reinforce Wuchang, and build the way down and capture Wuchang City, then all the Chusan will be restored. In this way, Huguang will be settled, and this granary will be enough to raise troops. The army will take a break and go down the river, meet the crowds of Fujian and Zhejiang, and meet half of the tripod. At that time, your Majesty will return to the capital, and the General will be honored at Fengtian Hall, which will be clear in history, and you will definitely enjoy wealth and honor and leave your name in history."

Li Guo laughed and said, "I'm just thinking this!"

Three days later, outside the city of Lizhou, Changde Prefecture, Du Yinxi recited a manifesto, "The Ming Dynasty was unfortunate and I hated to lose the two capitals. The enemy was unrighteous, and he was a disaster for the world, destroying my clothes and killing my people, causing the world to be prosperous and the people to wither. At that time, the Central Plains were turbulent and the country moved south. This enemy was basked by monkeys and crowned with a magical weapon, and wanted to use the body of a barbarian to live in China. But my great Ming Dynasty, how could this enemy be bullied? Yanhuang's blood, how could there be no one? Now our court will have 300,000 Zhongzhen Camp, and hundreds of war generals, swear to kill this enemy, and sacrifice to the earth in the suburbs. The edict was issued to Bu, and the Tianxing army was reported to him and advance to the future."

Outside the city of Lizhou, flags were flying, and tens of thousands of soldiers in the loyal camp stood solemnly under the high altar.

Although the soldiers of Zhongzhen Camp were not fully clothed and dressed in messy clothes, they were very thick and looked particularly shocking.

Li Guo, wearing armor, Fan Yang hat and cloak, waited for Du Yinxi to finish his thoughts and immediately swung his fist, "Restore the land of Chu and drive away the northern enemy!" The soldiers below immediately shouted in unison, and their voices soared into the sky.

After cheering for a while, Li Guo and his soldiers immediately shook their cloak and waved their hands and shouted, "Zhongzhen Camp, soldiers are sent to Jingzhou!"

...

Zhongzhen Camp crossed the river in large numbers, and the news soon came into the ears of the Qing army. The Qing army in Hubei was immediately panicked and hurriedly deployed defenses.

Jingzhou and Changde looked across the river. The soldiers who received the news were hurriedly on the city.

At this moment, the busy Qing army suddenly stood up and looked outside the city, all of which were stunned.

A few miles away, a large piece of thing like a gray cloth was slowly moving forward.

The Qing army on the city looked closely and showed a look of horror on his face, and he immediately made a big alarm.

A general ran down the city in panic, but ran into a general head-on. The general shouted, "What's the matter panic!"

He pointed his face pale and said in a panic, "General, this is awesome, the thief is here to attack the city."

Qing general Zheng Siwei hurriedly climbed to the top of the city and looked out. No one was enough to describe the crowds of people in the loyal camp. Looking around, there were all crowds of people, which made any warrior who had been through the battlefield scared.

"There are so many thieves!" Zheng Siwei shouted, hurriedly grabbed the general manager just now, and ordered urgently, "Hurry, please go to Wuchang quickly and ask the Governor for help."

...

In the south of the Yangtze River, east of Jinling City, on the line of Lime Mountain, artillery roared and the battle was fierce.

After Kong Youde's troops arrived in Jinling City, 40,000 Qing troops immediately launched a fierce attack on the Ming army. The old thief Hong, who was hiding in Nanjing, also came out to supervise the battle with a proud look.

For a time, the battle was extremely fierce. The Ming army relied on the mountain to hold on and had been fighting fiercely with the Qing army for half a month.
