Chapter 278 Liu Jinzhong, you are so loyal!
In the south study room, Emperor Kangxi was sitting behind the desk as usual, with a large group of eunuchs and slaves waiting behind him and on both sides like stars and moons. Outside the door, there were also imperial guards wearing yellow jackets and swords on their waists.
stand.
Seeing Wang Fuchen arriving under the leadership of Gabra, the minister in charge of the bodyguard, the imperial guards guarding the door went up to search him. The rules for body search were newly established. Because the news that the Ming army had Lasuo Fire Thunder also spread to Beijing.
During this period, although no major war broke out between the Qing court and the Ming court, small-scale battles continued. These battles mainly took place between the Yanping royal vassal army loyal to the Ming court and the Fujian and Zhejiang defenders of the Qing court.
between.
In order to ensure that Zhu Heji can smoothly sail northward in a few months, the troops of the Yanping Palace are currently demolishing the Qing army's strongholds on the coastal islands of Fujian and Zhejiang. Sometimes they will also wait for deserted beachheads outside the coastal boundaries to occupy
In some important places, the walled cities and docks abandoned by the Qing army were repaired.
In this process, conflicts with the Qing army were inevitable. The Yanping Prince's vassal army used a grenade hammer equipped with a drawstring and match rope more than once in the battle with the Qing army!
When Kangxi received the report, the first thing he thought of was that Zhu Heji and Zheng Jing would send dead soldiers, hide divine thunder, sneak into Beijing, disguise themselves as ministers, sound the thunder when going to court, and die together with himself!
Therefore, Emperor Kangxi's security work was further strengthened... Gone are the good days when porters and ministers went to work to drink tea, read novels and brag.
When Wang Fuchen entered the Gate of Supreme Harmony just now, he was groped up and down by a handsome disciple of the Eight Banners. Now when he arrived outside the South Study Room, he was groped again. Just when he felt uncomfortable, Emperor Kangxi
The "Tianyu" has been heard from the south study room.
"Ma Yaozi is my good slave, the most loyal. There is no need to search him, just let him in."
Wang Fuchen was a slave of Shunzhi, so he naturally knew Kangxi for a long time. He even went to court two or three years ago. But at that time, the Qing Dynasty was relatively stable, but now it is in turmoil. So Wang Fuchen is also a little curious about this "
Can the "Little Holy Lord of the Qing Dynasty" still remain calm now?
With this in mind, Wang Fuchen followed Gabra into the south study room, and while kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times to pay homage, he secretly looked at Emperor Kangxi. He saw that Emperor Kangxi was much more mature and steady than a few years ago.
, with a faint smile on his face, as if everything was under control.
Kangxi watched Wang Fuchen kowtow with a smile, and then smiled and said: "Ma Yaozi, stand up and show me."
"Hey!" Wang Fuchen agreed loudly and stood up.
"What a strong-backed general, he should be worthy of a Batulu!"
Batulu means "warrior" in Manchu. It was also regarded as a "brave title" by the emperors of the Qing Dynasty and awarded to the meritorious generals below. Although it was just an empty "brave title", in the history of the Xianfeng Year of the Qing Dynasty
In the past, it was very rare. In the more than two hundred years from the Year of Tianming to the Year of Xianfeng, only thirty-three people were given the title of "Batulu". However, after the Xianfeng Dynasty, the Batulu warriors of the Qing Dynasty became
There are so many...hundreds or even thousands, it's really "unstoppable"!
Precisely because the title of "Batulu" was very rare in the Kangxi year, when Wang Fuchen heard that Kangxi was going to give him the title of Batulu, he immediately knelt down and said with tears of gratitude: "Your Majesty, this slave must be valued by the late Emperor.
The slave has a heavy responsibility, the slave has the heart and the heart, and the kindness to the slave is as high as the sky and the deep as the sea. Although the slave has made a small contribution, it is not enough to repay the misfortune. Now the country is in trouble, and the slave has not yet made the contribution of killing the thieves and destroying the enemy. How dare he be worthy of his honor?
The title of Tulu? Please take back the emperor's order, and after the slaves kill Wu Sangui and Zhu Heji, give the slaves the title of courage!
Your Majesty...please give me an elite army and let me kill the thieves for you!"
Seeing that Wang Fuchen was coaxed to tears of gratitude by his few words, Emperor Kangxi also seemed a little excited, nodded approvingly and said: "What I want is a man like you! Take this Baturu first, and treat it as what I have advanced to you."
Reward...your opportunity to make a contribution is coming soon."
As he spoke, he picked up several memorials from the table in front of him and said to Wang Fuchen: "This is the memorial of Tuhai, Leerjin and Geng Jingzhong. They all said one thing. The traitor Wu Sangui wanted to cross the Yangtze River."
Got it!"
"No wonder Kangxi brought out a batulu to win people's hearts as soon as they met," Wang Fuchen thought to himself: "It turns out that Wu Sangui was going to fight... I didn't expect this old guy to be so fierce. Fortunately, I didn't chop him with a knife.
Wang Shirong, otherwise there will really be no way out."
Thinking of this, Wang Fuchen kowtowed to Emperor Kangxi again and said: "Your Majesty, this is a good thing! If this old boy Wu Sangui has been hiding on the south bank of the Yangtze River, the cavalry of our Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers will not be able to use it. If he dares to cross the river, then
It's time to die! This slave is willing to be the vanguard and kill this old thief on behalf of the Emperor!"
"Okay!" Kangxi clapped his hands and looked around, "Everyone, now that there is a fierce warrior like Wang Fuchen as the vanguard, can I personally lead the expedition?"
Upon hearing his question, the surrounding ministers all came out of their duties to kneel down, kowtow and speak.
Suo'e Tu, who became the number one scholar after Tu Hai left, was the first to express his support: "The emperor's imperial commander personally went to war, and Wu and Zhu rebelled against each other, and his liver and gallbladder must be broken!"
Mingzhu Mingzhongtang, who had just added a big man, also spoke: "The emperor's power is invincible, and Wu and Zhu will definitely flee!"
Jin Batai, the leader of the traitorous bachelor, also said: "As soon as the emperor's heavenly soldiers arrive, the two rebels will definitely be defeated!"
Xiong Cilu was the most talkative, and said in a long way: "Long live the Lord, I have seen the most holy and wise man." I thought that Wu Sangui had already declined, and was blocked by Tu Hai and Shi Lang, and was unable to advance in Yuezhou, so he took the risk to cross the river and made a delusion.
Give it a try. According to my opinion, the Lord will conquer it personally, and you will definitely succeed in one fell swoop!"
Of course, the ministers and the great minions supported him. Although in history, when Emperor Kangxi pretended to go to Yuezhou, Hunan to defeat Wu Sangui, the ministers below all cried and shouted to prevent him from going.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But things are different now
The question now is not whether Kangxi should conduct the conquest personally, but that he must put up the pretense of being a convoy himself.
In fact, Wu Sangui never actually crossed the Yangtze River. He just waved the flag in Changsha and declared that he was going to cross the river.
This is equivalent to a black boss clamoring for stud at the gambling table, but his hand has not yet pushed out the chips... This is to test the opponent, the "big boss" of Emperor Kangxi.
If Emperor Kangxi showed a little bit of cowardice, the people of the Qing Dynasty would be scattered.
If the people of the Qing Dynasty disperse first and Wu Sangui crosses the Yangtze River later, it will be a smooth battle... Now there is no figure like Obai in the Qing Dynasty who can control the situation. Even if Kangxi takes Yue Le from Jiangning
Transferred to Hubei to replace Leerjin as General Pingnan, Wu Sangui was also sure of achieving a complete victory.
If Kangxi had lost his mind and really let this idiot Leerjin fight Wu Sangui in Hubei, then Wu Sangui would have fainted from laughter.
It's a pity that Kangxi, the "Boss Ma", was not that cowardly... at least he was not afraid of Wu Sangui at all when talking. After confirming that Wu Sangui had released the news that he was preparing to cross the river, he immediately went to the important ministers meeting in the South Study Room
It was also announced that the emperor would personally conquer the country.
But just because you don't hesitate when talking, doesn't mean you can win on the battlefield.
Now Wu Sangui has started talking about wanting to cross the Yangtze River. If he can't cross the Yangtze River until the end of the talk, then his rebellion will be over.
Therefore, after Kangxi began to make it clear that he wanted to lead the expedition in person, Wu Sangui would definitely officially cross the Yangtze River.
Since the Jingjiang section of the Yangtze River is not very wide, most places are only about two miles apart. If you gather dozens of cannons, build ignition boats, and even build trebuchets to throw some sugar bombs, and heavy fire oil bombs, you can blockade a large area.
Duanjiang face.
Moreover, there are many tributaries on the north and south sides of the Jingjiang River, and the navigation capabilities of these tributaries are also very strong, so it is easy to get wooden boats and sailors.
Therefore, it is almost impossible to stop Wu Sangui from crossing the Jingjiang River.
