Chapter 464: External Troubles Stop, Internal Troubles Rise

Huang Shu looked at Zuo Mengeng who was at a loss. Somehow, an idea flashed in his mind, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Don't worry, Major General. The situation that Major General is facing now seems to be full of dangers.

It may break down at any time, but you can sit back and relax!”

"Sit back and relax?" Zuo Mengeng couldn't laugh or cry. This military advisor turned out to be a fool! Fortunately, the old man believed in him so much.

"Commander, stop joking." Zuo Mengeng shook his head repeatedly, "My head is almost gone, how can I still be worry-free?"

"The young general is bad," Huang Shu said. "The one who needs to worry and worry now is not the young general, but the rebellious and unfilial Prince Fujun!"

"Prince? What else does he have to worry about?" Zuo Mengeng smiled bitterly, "He has beaten Hauge to death. What else does he have to worry about?"

"Of course I have to worry!" Huang Shu smiled, "As long as Hauge dies, all the kings in the southeast will regard the prince as their mainstay. In order to protect themselves, everyone will support and obey them. Now, Hauge is dead and the Northern Army is defeated.

Dorgon also planned to balance the land with words and words. Everyone with a discerning eye can see that the Northern Qing Dynasty is no longer able to conquer the south, and the confrontation between the north and the south has become a situation. Now that the foreign troubles are gone, why don't domestic worries arise again? "

"Internal worries?" Zuo Mengeng pointed at his nose, "Besides my father and son, what else does he have to worry about?"

"Too many!" Huang Shu said, "The fact that the major generals and the generals have troops in Huguang is the prince's 'worry'. Huang Degong and Gao Jie separatizing Huaibei are not worries. Shi Kefa, Gao Hongtu, and Zuo Maodi training in Shandong are not worries? He Tengjiao

, Mu Tianbo is in charge of Hunan and Yunnan, is it not a worry for the prince? After the scholar-officials in the southeast have suffered such a big loss, will everyone really be convinced?

My subordinates know that after the prince defeated Hao Ge, he began to take away the power of Huang Degong and Gao Jie, and wanted to transform their troops into guards. Even if they dare not object in face, are they willing to do so in their hearts? "

"What can you do if you don't want to?" Zuo Mengeng muttered, "With their little strength"

Huang Shu smiled and said: "Huang Degong, the total number of Gaojie's troops is no less than 50,000, and most of them are elites. The young generals have 100,000 troops, and the three monarchs of Shandong have more than 100,000 regiments and training troops. Just adding these aspects together, two

One hundred thousand people will not stop there.

And today, there is already a three-point trend in the world! It is really difficult to predict what the situation will be if all these two hundred thousand people turn their backs on the Qing Dynasty or surrender to the world. So as long as the major general can obey the order of the King of Chu,

Contact the heroes and fight against the prince in the name of protecting the emperor. The prince will not dare to rashly act against the prince, nor will he dare to attack the young general!"

Could such a good thing happen?

Zuo Mengeng thought it was still unreliable.

Huang Shu nodded and said with a smile: "Actually, Huang Degong, Gao Jie, Shi Kefa, Gao Hongtu, Zuo Maodi and you, the young general, are not the biggest internal worries for Prince Fujun!"

"The biggest internal worry is"

Huang Shu paused and uttered two words: "There are many people!"

"A lot of people?"

Huang Shu smiled coldly: "When there are more people, the land shrinks. The southeast has more people and less land. Now so many exiled northerners have come, haven't they overcrowded the southeastern territory? And among those northerners, there are

Many of the heroes who overcame the difficulties came with two fists. How much territory has been lost in the Southeast these days? Can the people of the Southeast be itching for their teeth?"

"This, this," Zuo Mengeng looked confused, "Military advisor, I am also from the north!"

Huang Shu smiled: "Young General, you don't think that people in Huguang regard the Zuo family as the parents of the people, right?"

Zuo Liangyu's army is so weak in Huguang that it's so inadequate! It's crazy if they can get the support of the common people and gentry in Hubei!

And Zhu Cihong also raided the southeast! Although the targets of his raids were mainly gentry and businessmen, the poor people in the southeast did not suffer much. However, due to the entry of the Qing army and the subsequent series of wars, many northern refugees fled to the southeast, aggravating the situation.

The conflict between man and land in the southeast was over, and the gentry in the southeast gradually lost the power to oppress the poor people because of Zhu Cixi's suppression. In the original history, during the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, there were many slave rebellions in the south of the Yangtze River, that is, slave uprisings!

In the past, everyone faced the threat of the Qing army and held back on all aspects. Now that the Qing army cannot come to the southeast, all kinds of conflicts that were originally suppressed will naturally start to break out.

"Even if the prince is trapped by internal troubles," Zuo Mengeng's brows were still furrowed and unable to move, "and Li Zicheng is about to go south, how can I resist it?"

"Why resist?" Huang Shu asked back.

Zuo Mengeng looked at Huang Shu blankly, "If you don't resist, how can you surrender to Li Zicheng?"

Huang Shu said: "It is better to transfer to Jingzhou Prefecture in the name of entering Sichuan."

"Transfer to Jingzhou Prefecture?" Zuo Mengeng thought for a while, "I'm afraid that's not possible. We go south from Xiangyang and pass Chengtian Prefecture, which is Jingzhou. I'm afraid Li Chuang's army will attack Jingzhou first and then Wuchang!"

"You're a bad young general!" Huang Shu shook his head and thought: How come Zuo Liangyu's son can't even run away?

"Major General, Jingzhou Prefecture is huge! To the west is the rolling mountains, to the east is the prosperous land of Jianghan, and is divided into two parts by the Yangtze River." Huang Shu analyzed, "What Li Zicheng can easily capture is the Jiangbei plain part of Jingzhou.

.We can go to Jingzhou Fucheng first, take the King of Chu with us, then go to Jiangtun Public Security Bureau and Yidu, and wait for the opportunity to go south to capture Yuezhou, Changde, and Chenzhou. Then we can sit and watch Li Chuang and the prince fight between the Han River and the Yangtze River.

If the prince wins, we will take the opportunity to return to Jiangbei and take Jingzhou, Chengtian, Xiangyang, and Yuanyang as our home. With Xiangyang as our home base, the young general can swing between the Southern Ming Dynasty and the Northern Qing Dynasty. Are we afraid that Wu Sangui will lose his status?

If Major General Li Chuang wins, he can take Jiangnan to the east, Hunan to the south, or even go as far away as Guangdong. There will always be a place to stay!"

"Okay! The military is indeed my Zhuge Kongming!" Zuo Mengeng had just praised Huang Shu, but the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, "But King Chu is listening to Mengmei now, and there are Qiu Lei and Du Yin beside him

Assistant Xi may not be able to be used by me!"

As Zuo Liangyu became seriously ill, the Zuo family army also split. There were roughly three factions. One was the "Liao Zhen faction" headed by Zuo Menggeng. The backbone of Zuo Liangyu served in the Liao army.

His old subordinates when he was in charge of the army. This faction is also the core of Zuo Liangyu’s direct family!

The second is the Shaanxi faction with the backbone of the bandits who surrendered to Zuo Liangyu. This faction is currently led by Jin Shenghuan, the commander-in-chief of Chengtian Prefecture.

The third is the King of Chu faction headed by Qiu Lei. This faction is not very strong, but with the banner of King Chu in hand, it seems to have become a faction.

Huang Shu smiled and said: "Young General, why don't you go to Jingzhou as a subordinate to ensure that General Qiu and Princess Chu are on our side?"

"Okay, then it's time to work!"

Jingzhou, Palace of the Prince of Chu.

In the back garden, in an extremely exquisite small attic, Princess Zuo Mengmei was lazily leaning on the railing. She was wearing an emerald green dress, which highlighted her graceful appearance. On her delicate and charming face, a trace of light was flowing out at this time.

A faint smile.

Her married life with Chu King Zhu Cizhao was extremely sweet. Before the wedding ceremony, the young prince despised Zuo Mengmei for marrying someone else and being too old. But after the marriage was consummated, he was completely obsessed with his eldest sister Zuo Mengmei.

Lived.

Big sister Zuo is definitely the best big sister in the world. She has a good face, a good figure, and is good at everything!

Sister Zuo was also very fond of this young prince husband who was obsessed with her. Although the young prince was young, he was strong and lovable.

The young couple really fell into the honeypot together.

The only thing that worries Zuo Mengmei is that the young prince has too much rebellious spirit and is clamoring to rebel against the prince all day long!

A good feudal prince, why would you bother to do such a stupid thing? Besides, the prince is so good at fighting. If he beats the young prince and defeats him, he will have to accompany him to the execution ground.

Thinking of this, Zuo Mengmei couldn't help but sigh.

"Good sister, why are you sighing? But for Lao Taishan?"

The young prince's voice suddenly came. Zuo Mengmei turned around and saw that Zhu Cizhao had arrived beside her at some point. Those big eyes were looking at her flowery face intentionally or unintentionally.
