Chapter 156: It's all bad things for the Han people

Ajige did not think that this inexplicable failure was entirely his responsibility. Even if he had the responsibility, it was only a secondary reason for the failure. Wu Sangui gave a reason that Ajige could accept: "The reason why the soldiers suddenly mutiny was largely because the Jinhua thief named Zuo Menggeng as the Marquis of Ningnan and asked him to incorporate Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo's old subordinates."

Although Ajige didn't know what happened in Caozhou, Zuo Menggeng would "recruit Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo's old subordinates", and he didn't know how Liu Zeqing was living and dead now, he could only say viciously: "The Jinhua thief is so cruel, and he actually made such a trick at this time!"

Although Zuo Menggeng had been in the Ming Dynasty for several months, although the Ming Dynasty court admitted that Zuo Liangyu was the Ningnan Marquis of the Hongguang Dynasty and also admitted that Zuo Menggeng was the son of Zuo Liangyu, it did not admit that Zuo Menggeng inherited the title of Ningnan Marquis because of his importance to famous arts. After betraying Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo, the Chengtian court and Liu Yongxi finally decided to reward Zuo Menggeng. This news naturally made these green camp soldiers crazy about it.

Since the Qing Dynasty was already a broken ship that could sink at any time, evacuating across the Yellow River would not solve any problem, but would make the Ming Dynasty stronger. And everyone knew that the uprising in Henan and the uprising in Hebei were completely different. Therefore, after the news of Zuo Menggeng came, countless camps made the wisest decision.

Now there is no need for the Ming army to catch up with it. The main force of the Qing army is already in a split state. Even the Eight Banners Niulu has been trapped in half. Moreover, Ajige didn't know whether to stop and rescue the Eight Banners Niulu that were trapped in, or should lead the army across the river without hesitation.

Originally, the worst situation Ajige expected was just being attacked by the pursuit of the Ming Dynasty Yue army halfway, but he didn't expect to encounter such a big mess before he reached the bank of the Yellow River. Therefore, he could only curse the Jinhua thieves and Liu Yongxi as extremely vicious, while Wu Sangui quickly persuaded: "King Ying, let's retreat north quickly. If you don't retreat, you may not be able to leave!"

Ajige made up his mind: "You can't retreat, you must fight a war. It's fine if we don't dare to fight when encountering Jinhua thieves. Do you still have to indulge these traitors now? I'm afraid anyone will dare to bully our Qing Dynasty in the future! This battle must be fought!"

He was really stimulated, and if it were Wu Sangui, a Han general like Shang Kexi who would have rebelled, he would have considered it carefully. Moreover, the reason for the rebellion of these Han soldiers and Han generals was that Ajige knew to retreat even if he didn't even dare to fight in a battle. He wanted these Han soldiers and Han generals to know how powerful he was in the British King Ajige.

Ajige has already jumped on his horse: "This time I will let the people of the world know how powerful I am!"

Liu Yongxi was not sure that his reward for Zuo Menggeng would cause so many chain reactions. Now he was only concerned about whether he could catch Ajige's main force: "The opportunity is rare, let Haoge go for the time being, but even if Ajige has escaped the Yellow River, he will chase after him without hesitation. This time Ajige will not run away!"

Although the Qing Dynasty still had many Niulu and Yingtou in the north, in Liu Yongxi's eyes, it was not a problem for the defeated generals like Haoge. He can be called a confidant and confidant patient with the most complete system and strength.

In the Qing Dynasty, only the Ajige army did not suffer heavy damage or blows from the Yue Ming army. They were also the most arrogant and even dared to play conspiracy with the Yue Ming army. Unlike Haoge, they threw away their armor and ran wildly when they heard the Yue Ming army's northern expedition. However, as long as they defeated or severely damaged the Ajige army, the Qing Dynasty would be a dead dog.

The generals around Liu Yongxi all felt that Emperor Chengtian was wise and powerful, and only Pengcheng Bo Zhang Boyi made a small difference: "This time, both Your Majesty and the Queen of Fengtian led the army to fight in person, so I must not let Ajige go, but since Haoge is a frightened bird, he cannot let it go easily. Please give me a chance to cross the river first!"

Since Zhang Boyi volunteered, Liu Yongxi naturally followed suit: "No problem, Haoge will be left to Pengchengbolai to deal with. Pengchengbo should not use too much force and completely destroy Haoge. There are not many buckets like Haoge among Jianlu!"

No matter what the point is, Haoge is one of the best generals in the Qing Dynasty. Even if he was able to reorganize his troops and sit in Shandong after several heavy blows, it fully demonstrated his ability. But now, like Duoduo, he has been psychologically shattered by the Yueming Army, so the priority of the Yueming Army will always be to run away. Therefore, when the Yueming Army fights Haoge, he can always get three more courage and confidence.

Zhang Boyi also laughed: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Zhang is definitely not a man like Meng Lang. This time, you must stop crossing the river. We will try to attack him from the front and back!"

Liu Yongxi nodded and explained: "Let Queen Fengtian speed up, Liu Zeqing, since Liu Liangzuo is dead, then I will naturally wipe out all Jianlu!"

In fact, there is no need for Liu Yongxi to mobilize. Whether it is Li Dingguo or Gao Yigong, Li Guo, Liu Wenxiu, Liu Tichun, and now the Ming army is in a carnival because of Zuo Menggeng's reward. Everyone thinks that although this is not the last chance, there are not many opportunities left for everyone.

However, in terms of action, there are still differences between the Ming army in the Yue and Ming army. The generals of the Xiying led by Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu and Ai Nengqi can be said to be singing all the way and refused to miss any opportunity. Instead, they were like loyal camp generals like Gao Yigong, Li Guo and Liu Tichun who suffered too many great losses in the hands of the Qing army, so they should be much more cautious in their actions.

But an unexpected news accelerated the operation of the Zhongzhen Camp: "What? Jianlu actually had an internal strife. Is this a rumor? If it weren't for civil strife, let's hurry up and grab the credit!"

Everyone present felt that Emperor Chengtian Liu Yongxi was incredibly lucky. They originally thought that this Northern Expedition would be extremely difficult, but first Prince Su Haoge fled completely, then Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo took his own destruction, and now Ajige's troops were even in civil strife.

However, Gao Yigong immediately understood what happened in the Qing army: "Ajige's defeat probably started with his retreat from Jiangnan to Wuchang!"

The reason why Ajige's army retreated from Jiangnan to Wuchang was because the Zhongzhen Camp seized Jingzhou at that time. Ajige was worried about a fire in the backyard, so he insisted on retreating back to Jingzhou. However, after Ajige retreated to Jingzhou, he did not launch a large-scale offensive against Zhongzhen Camp in Jingzhou. On the contrary, Ajige quickly gave up Wuchang and retreated to Henan.

In the following months, whether it was Liu Yongxi's expedition in the west or Zhang Xianzhong's departure from Sichuan, Ajige kept sitting still and watching Liu Yongxi integrate most of the southern resources and then suddenly launched a northern expedition. Although Ajige had also dispatched troops to fight with the Ming Dynasty, he heard that after Haoge retreated across the Yellow River, Ajige turned all the way again.

With such a brilliant record of transfer, not to mention that Ajige is just a prince, even the soldiers under the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty would completely lose confidence in him. The generals of the Zhongzhen Camp, including Gao Yigong, were full of courage: "Take him to die while he is sick and kill him quickly!"

And good news soon came from the front line: "Now are the Green Camp soldiers, the New Affiliated Army and even the Eight Banners Army are rebelling!"

Strictly speaking, only part of the Eight Banners Han Army and the Mongols of the Foreign Vast. Hundreds of subordinates of Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi also participated in it. However, this incident caused a fatal blow to the morale of the Qing army. Until now, Ajige still could not quell the rebellion, but instead made the fire burn more and more vigorously.

Li Dingguo, Gao Yigong and Li Guozhu's army arrived quickly reversed the situation. Although the battle was still very fierce, it was the first time since the Northern Expedition that the Ming army encountered such fierce resistance, and hundreds of people were killed and killed in an instant.

But the biggest problem is that the resistance of the Qing army is meaningless. Since Ajige could not even suppress the rebellious camp head and Niulu, now dozens of elite Ming troops rushed over from the south and east at the same time. The Qing army rushed to the front of the dozen camp heads and Niulu were almost immediately packed with dumplings, and even if they escaped by luck, they would lose their troops.

The Qing army is now in chaos. Although the people who are still following Ajige's actions are all the elite Qing army in the true sense, their hatred for Ajige is not inferior to those of the officers and soldiers who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.

They all felt that Ajige had to take the greatest responsibility to get to this point. If Ajige had gritted his teeth and continued to attack Tianmen Mountain, maybe the Jinhua thieves had already retreated back to their nests in a mess, but they would not have reached this point today. And soon someone would have heard inside information: "The King of England refused to retreat to the Yellow River after hearing the arrangements of Han people like Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi!"

Although everyone hated Ajige for retrenching again and again, the decision they hated the most now was that Ajige suddenly had a dizzy mind and wanted to stop and fight to the death with the Ming army of Yue.

Although Ajige said "a decisive battle" but everyone thought it was a death sentence. Now there are at least sixty or seventy battalions of rebellion. It has been a big effort to solve these rebels, not to mention the hundreds of thousands of main forces of the Ming Dynasty in Yue. Therefore, someone immediately shouted: "I think the Qing Dynasty has reached its present level, and it is all Wu Sangui, and it is still very pleasant to have these bad things in the Han people!"

"And they deliberately made a bad thing and deliberately led Prince Ying to death. If they don't kill these Han people today, our Qing Dynasty will have no way to survive!"

"In fact, I think there must be some huge conspiracy behind these Han soldiers' sudden uprisings!"

"Yes, if we don't make any decisions right now, we will probably die without a burial place!"
