Chapter 11: The Southwest War Situation (III)

Regardless of whether Hong Chenggong thought so or not, Zheng Nansheng could only rot everything in his stomach. If Hong Chenggong knew that he had such dirty thoughts, there would be no benefit for him, so he stood on the side and said nothing from beginning to end.

Back at the Sanfan Governor's Office, Hong Chenggong ordered people to arrange Ma Laogong and his daughter to move into an independent courtyard, but he moved from the inner courtyard to the front courtyard. Hong Chenggong did this to avoid suspicion and keep a distance. He had his own ideas, but in Zheng Nansheng's eyes, it changed a lot. The Grand Marshal was really clever. In this way, he first developed a touch of favor in Magu's heart, gaining the impression of a gentleman, and then impressed the other party with his talent and knowledge. The method of playing hard to get was indeed clever! Why didn't I expect that the Grand Marshal is worthy of being a Grand Marshal!

"Deputy General Zheng, such a change occurred in Miaojiang. It seems that we have to adjust the deployment. What do you think?" After all this, Hong Chenggong ordered someone to pass Zheng Nansheng into his study.

"The Grand Marshal means that Wu Heimiao may attack our Yuanzhou City?" Zheng Nansheng has been paying back to Hong for some time, and he can think about his thoughts for eight or nine points.

"Wu Heimiao got the four artillery left by the Ma family's four cannons. This is a powerful weapon for siege. If we do not take any defense, Yuanzhou City may not be able to defend it!" Hong Chenggong said calmly.

Zheng Nansheng thought for a while and said, "When the general was defeated, there were no many shells left. The Miao people could not create shells that our artillery could use in a short period of time. So if Wu Heimiao really attacked our Yuanzhou, he would definitely not be willing to use too many shells. According to the estimate below, it would be the limit for half of his ability to use. After several days of reinforcement, there should be no problem."

"That's good, but I am worried that Wu Heimiao will definitely win against Yuanzhou City. If we try our best, we must make the worst plan. It's a pity that my army is too thin. Otherwise, why should we be so helpless in passive defense now? If it is true that Wu Heimiao has recently swallowed up such a large piece of power, there will inevitably be some instability within it. It was originally the best opportunity for us to take the opportunity to attack Mayang, but it's a pity!" Hong Chenggong said hatefully.

"What the General He Renlong said was that General He Renlong went south to Jingzhou and the entire Huguang area had not yet settled. Even if the Governor had sent troops, it would not be possible to arrive in a short time."

"Yes, the time is gone in a flash, and I am a little unwilling to accept it." Hong Chenggong sighed.

"The commander must do this. Wu Heimiao has annexed the Ma family. Even if the Miao people who depended on the Ma family now surrender to Wu Heimiao, they must be more indifferent. If we make good use of it and the strategy formulated by the commander before, the balance of the Miao will be just around the corner!" Zheng Nansheng's eyes turned and reminded.

"You are right. It's not good to be too eager to achieve success. Now Zhuoba is in our hands. Even if he refuses to surrender to the court, as long as he does not have his advice around Wu Heimiao, now that the Ma family has surrendered to the court again, there must be many contradictions within the Miao people. We have opportunities!" Hong Chenggong pondered for a while and figured it out.

"What the Grand Marshal said," Zheng Nansheng quickly followed and asked, "But what does the Grand Marshal want to deal with the surrendered Ma family?"

"What are some good suggestions?" Although Hong Chengchu had some ideas, it would be no harm to listen to other people's ideas. At least it could make up for some subtle details that he had not thought of.

"There are no good suggestions under the mark? It's just that this Ma family has the reputation of a talented phoenix girl. The court wants to calm the seedlings and treat them in the future. This woman should be useful. The general should not neglect others." Zheng Nansheng racked his brains to come up with these few words.

"If you have any ideas, just say it!" Hong Chenggong could see that Zheng Nansheng is a talented person, and making good use of it will definitely make a difference.

"The mark means that Ma Lao Gong is deeply stimulated and is now ill in bed. None of the doctors in Yuanzhou City have a good way to treat him. If the general can invite a famous doctor to treat him for Ma Lao Gong, the Ma family will definitely be grateful to the court. Even if the Ma family still has this strange intention, the court will stand on the word "Ru" in the future!" Zheng Nansheng not only made an idea, but also secretly tempted whether Hong Chenggong really liked Ma Gu. If so, he would definitely be very concerned about this matter, as long as he could see a trace of clues.

After Zheng Nansheng finished speaking, he was secretly observing Hong Chenggong's eyes, hoping to find something from it. However, to his disappointment, Hong Chenggong performed very calmly and said, "There is one famous doctor, but I am not sure that I can invite her to treat Ma Laogong."

"What the Grand Marshal said about Li Qing and Xuan Doctor Li?" Zheng Nansheng asked.

"good."

"Dr. Li was sent by the court to treat General Zuo Liangyu's poison, so it is indeed not easy to invite him."

"It's not just that it's not easy. Even if someone flatly refuses it, I can't do anything about it. Who told me that I have a secret identity?" Hong Chenggong thought to himself. He dared not tell Zheng Nansheng about such a secret matter. It angered the emperor and would not have his benefits.

"Doctor Li is a person around the emperor, and it is not very safe along the way. Besides, she does not have this extra obligation, so I cannot force others." Hong Chenggong wanted to say.

"Master, why don't you try it? Those who study medicine should save lives and help the wounded. The medical ethics are the key to medical ethics. Perhaps this TaiDi Li is also a kind-hearted person in ancient ways?" Zheng Nansheng didn't even know whether Li Qing was a man or a woman, and Hong Chenggong had never told him.

"You are right. I will write a book to see if I can invite Doctor Li." Hong Chenggong didn't think much and nodded.

This letter was in a dilemma when Li Qing came to Li Qing. She was already very sorry for not being able to go back to Beijing to celebrate Zhu Yinglong’s birthday. She originally thought that after healing Zuo Liangyu, she would go back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year. It was time to calculate the time, but if she went to Yuanzhou to treat this old man Ma, she might have failed. It turned out that she didn’t feel it by his side, but when she found out that she had left him, her longing for him increased a little more every day.

Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. As a doctor, how could he not save him? Li Qing was helpless to send a letter to the capital city to explain the reason that he could not return to Beijing for the New Year for the time being. Then he ordered someone to send it out quickly, clean up, and dragged his tired body to set off for Yuanzhou under the escort of Wu Sangui's special operations brigade.

When Magu heard Hong Chenggong say that she had invited an imperial physician to treat her father, the smile that suddenly came like a spring breeze that bloomed thousands of pear blossoms made Hong Chenggong, who was originally calm, feel a little uncontrollable.

The beauty and such a stunning beauty are indeed the root of the chaos. No wonder Wu Heimiao got her at all costs. Hong Chengkong himself was a little worried. After getting along for a long time, he might be able to unconsciously get involved in it and have a little bit of indecent thoughts.

At this moment, on another battlefield, after Qin Liangyu led his army to capture Chengdu, the army suddenly increased to 100,000, and the power balance between the two sides showed a huge tilt. Qin Liangyu is worthy of being the richest female general in the late Ming Dynasty. Under her command, she swept across most of Sichuan with a thousand pounds, leaving only a few kings of Shu stubbornly resisting and was about to overthrow.

At this time, Qin Liangyu was promoted to the governor of Sichuan. The entire Sichuan army and the whole world were shocked. It was not uncommon for women to be generals, and there were even many kings of a country. However, in Chinese history, Qin Liangyu was definitely the first person to be a chief official of a territory, especially the governor of the real power enthroned by the court. It was not that kind of false title. With this, Qin Liangyu was enough to be famous for thousands of histories and became an idol worshipped by women all over the world. Especially when she was a Miao girl, she married a Tujia clan, but now she became a chief official of the Han court. I am afraid that even any prince would not be as glorious as her.

This great grace and honor made everyone in the Qin family and even the Ma family excited, but Qin Liangyu knew that she dared not accept this imperial edict and this official position. The Confucian tradition of Han people for more than a thousand years was not so easy to subvert. Qin Liangyu herself was deeply influenced by the Han Confucian Confucianism's idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. In her bones, she still recognized the "man is superior to women" and "three obediences and four virtues". Even if she received this imperial edict today, the governor would not be able to do it for a long time, and it would also bring many troubles to the emperor. She did not see the scene of the emperor being besieged by ministers. It is good for a good emperor to break the rules, but it is not possible to break the cognition for thousands of years.

Perhaps Qin Liangyu had never seen the emperor Zhu Yinglong with his own eyes, so both sides were not clear about the other party's ideas. Zhu Yinglong did not want to achieve it overnight. He wanted to take this opportunity to create a role model. As long as there was a role model, although there would be great resistance at the beginning and even to put himself in the siege of ministers, once this example was established, the resistance would be much smaller in the future. As long as you go on unswervingly, ten, twenty, one hundred, or two hundred years, what you can't do, your descendants can do. If you can't see equality between men and women, you must also be able to basically safeguard the basic rights and interests of women in survival.

The reason why Wu Zetian was able to be an emperor was because the environment was relaxed at that time. Although the status of a woman was still inferior to men, Wu Zetian set a precedent. Unfortunately, it was not able to maintain it. Of course, Zhu Yinglong did not support women as emperors. It is not impossible for women to be the leader of the country. But such a woman is okay to be a hand-off manager. If she really wanted her to govern the country, she would have congenital shortcomings, energy, courage and other aspects. Of course, it is not ruled out that some of them could not be sold for ten thousand years.

Therefore, when the decree was reached, he also carried a secret decree, which was a secret decree that strictly ordered Qin Liangyu to accept the decree and not to resist the decree. Qin Liangyu couldn't do it if he wanted to accept the decree.

Qin Liangyu raised an army from east Sichuan and swept across western Sichuan and north Sichuan. The king of Shu brought tens of thousands of defeated soldiers to retreat to several prefectures such as Sichuan Xingdusi in southwest Sichuan. The environment there was harsh and it was a place for ethnic minorities to live in. She needed to adjust her deployment before launching a war of rebellion there. In general, most of Sichuan has stabilized.
