In the end, the old traitor Shang Kexi Shang, who was captured by his son-in-law, was tied up and stuffed into a sedan chair, and carried back to Guilin Mansion in a sedan chair and carried into Guilin City. On the day of triumphant return and entering the city, the whole city of Guilin was a sensation, and so was the whole territory of Guangxi. Not only the brothers Sun Yanji and Sun Yanling who were stationed outside the city of Guilin, but also Shang Zhixiao and Geng Juzhong who were also stationed in Guilin Mansion. Even Ma Xiong, the admiral of Guangdong who was far away in Liuzhou, was present in person and expressed his warmest congratulations to Fatty Lu and Wu Jundong Route Army. Especially Shang Zhixiao, who bowed and bowed affectionately to Fatty Lu during the city entry ceremony, as if he was not his own father who was captured alive this time.
There is no way, the three-province coalition army surrendered general and Ma Xiong and others were completely stunned by the horrific fighting power of the Yunnan-Guizhou army. More than 10,000 troops entered Guangxi and swept the entire territory of Guangxi in less than two months, attacking everyone all the way. Invincible, the momentum is like a broken bamboo. In the end, in the face of the full-scale counterattack of the 40,000 Qing troops in Guangdong, Wu Jun's East Route Army only sent a civilian-born Fatty Lu to lead an army of 10,000 to fight, but the result was that it broke several times in less than half a month. The Guangdong Qing Army captured Guangdong Qing Army coach Pingnan Wang Shang alive on the battlefield! In the face of such a perverted army, Sun Shanggengma and his gang are extremely courageous, so I'm afraid they don't dare to have two hearts, right?
In short, after this battle, the situation in Guangxi, which was precarious before, was completely reversed. Before Shang Zhixin, who stayed in Guangdong, responded, the Wu Jun East Route Army had plenty of time to consolidate its rule in Guangxi and digest the newly occupied territory and the Returning to the army, Sun Shanggengma and his gang of 25 boys are completely dead, and then they will honestly accept the reorganization, accept the official title of the Wu army, and board the Wu army thief ship to work for the old traitor Wu, looking forward to the day when the old traitor Wu Being able to dominate the world, let us enjoy the blessings and prosperity, and enjoy the glory and wealth.
At the entry ceremony to welcome Fatty Lu triumphantly, unlike the flattering Sun Shanggengma and others, Fatty Lu¡¯s other brother-in-law, Wu Shizong, the coach of the Wu Jun East Route Army, was a little absent-minded, and he seemed a little preoccupied when he spoke. The heavy appearance made Fatty Lu start to worry¡ªcould it be that he made a great contribution and aroused the jealousy and hatred of this cheap brother-in-law? Fortunately, taking advantage of everyone's distraction, Wu Shizong quickly winked at Fatty Lu, and said in a low voice, "Brother-in-law, don't waste time with those sycophants, I have something to do."
Fatty Lu suddenly realized that he quickly got rid of the entanglement of Sun Shanggengma's sycophants, hurriedly ended the triumphant ceremony, and ordered the three armies to be rewarded, and the meritorious soldiers were rewarded heavily. Before entering the table, Fatty Lu and Wu Shizong came to the back hall alone. As soon as they were seated, Wu Shizong immediately said with a gloomy expression: "Brother-in-law, something serious happened again. I just received the news last night that the eldest son of our Pingxi Palace was killed." Already!"
"The prince was killed?" Fatty Lu jumped up and asked in alarm: "Who did it? Didn't Emperor Mangou express his determination to fight to the death by making peace with us and killing the prince?"
"It wasn't caused by Emperor Mangou." Wu Shizong shook his head, and said with a gloomy face: "Mangouming's mansion newspaper showed that it was the killer sent by the old thief Oboi before his death in order to vent his hatred for Guizhou's disastrous defeat. Sneaked back to the murderous hands of Beijing, killed our eldest son of Pingxi Palace in the prison, and planned to kill our youngest brother Wu Shilin, but fortunately, the guards of Mangou's sky prison found and rescued him in time. Afterwards, Emperor Mangou returned the eldest son All the official positions during his lifetime, posthumously conferred the title of grand master, and put them into the coffin generously, preparing to send the coffin of the eldest son back to Yunnan for burial."
"Oboi sent someone to do it?" Fatty Lu said suspiciously, "Is Oboi such a narrow-minded person? After losing a battle, killing a prisoner who has no strength to resist is like venting his anger." Is it his character?"
"Whether it was Oboi's hand or not is not important now." Wu Shizong said with a distressed expression: "The key is, what should we do now? What will we do in the future? What I am most worried about now is that if the news of the son's murder spreads." , will it cause instability in the hearts of the people again, and make those new generals and officials have a different heart?"
Wu Shizong is indeed worthy of being an outstanding representative of the third generation of the Pingxi Palace. He is very thoughtful and comprehensive. Now Guangxi has just been occupied by the Wu army. , the news that Wu Yingxiong was killed by Oboi spread, and the generals who surrendered would inevitably be suspicious, worried that the old traitor Wu would take them out in a fit of anger, and even more worried that the old traitor Wu would completely break with the Qing court and push them out as cannon fodder for the anti-Qing dynasty .
At the same time, from Wu Shizong's tone, Fatty Lu can also see that Wu Shizong has also discovered an extremely important problem, that is, after Wu Yingxiong's death, in case the old traitor Wu died in the middle of the anti-Qing war, what should he do? Who can take over the burden of old traitor Wu and become the undisputed successor of the Yunnan-Guizhou army? count onHe said: "Only the Second Prince and General Ma led an army of 40,000 to fight Wuchang? Are the troops in the hands of the Second Prince mainly the elite of our Yunnan-Guizhou main force, or the new army?"
"Of course the new army is the main one." Zhang Guozhu spread his hands, and said helplessly: "The main force of our Yunnan-Guizhou army is only 70,000 to 80,000 people, and we occupy such a large territory at once. Yuan's various state capitals, where are so many elites from the main force going to the second prince and the others?"
"It's broken, it's broken." Fatty Lu cried bitterly, ignoring Yu Xuan's angry eyes, and screamed: "Where's my father-in-law, General Wu Guogui? Where's Wang Shirong? Where's Fang Guangchen and Hu Guozhu? Why don't they persuade them?" My lord? Wuchang is such an important place, why don¡¯t you go northward to seize it with all your strength? What¡¯s the use of dispersing the main force and grabbing Yongzhou and Guiyang, which are not shitty places? These places simply can¡¯t support a large number of troops, so send new soldiers to go there It¡¯s so easy to take, why have so many elites been sent instead, isn¡¯t this a waste? It¡¯s like throwing away the watermelon to pick sesame seeds!¡±
"Lord Lu, in this situation, who dares to persuade you?" Zhang Guozhu sighed and said, "You think General Wu and the others didn't see our strategic decision-making mistakes? But now, after the prince heard the news that his son was killed, he cried like tears every day." Similarly, he fell ill in the city of Changsha, and he didn¡¯t have the mentality to understand military and political affairs, so who would dare to persuade him?¡±
"Old thing, the bones are still so soft!" Although he was very sympathetic to the traitorous white-haired man who gave away the black-haired man, Fatty Lu cursed in his heart - he was about to change to a tougher commander, and heard that his son was killed by the enemy , It should be to take the army to fight the enemy desperately and avenge his son. As a result, after the old traitor Wu heard the news of his son's death, he cried like a woman and ignored political affairs.
"By the way." Zhang Guozhu suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "I once heard General Wu and Mr. Fang say that it would be great if you were in Changsha, Mr. Lu. With your eloquence and strategy, you will definitely be able to persuade the prince to return to Changsha. Cheer up and take us to fight against Man Gou to avenge the prince! Master Lu, why don't you go to Changsha and have a try, maybe you still have a chance."
"I'm going to Changsha right away!" Fatty Lu also knew that this opportunity must be missed. Once Mangou was relieved to gather an army to guard Wuchang, it would be even more difficult to take down the throat of the nine provinces, so Fatty Lu immediately stood up , decisively said to Line Yuxuan: "Three generals, further north will be completely controlled by our Pingxi Palace. The team will be led by you and Li Tianzhi. I will take Erlang and the others to go north on Qingqi, and go to Changsha to meet the prince. You is that OK?"
"Of course no problem." Line Yu Xuan is very reliable in this regard, immediately nodded in agreement, and said with concern: "You have to be careful, if the prince sends you to Wuchang for reinforcements, don't go alone, wait for me to help you , I will rush to Changsha as soon as possible.¡±
"Understood." Fatty Lu nodded vigorously, and then said in a low voice: "You also have to be careful of those fools, if they dare to play tricks, kill them immediately, and I will bear it for you if anything happens."
Line Yu Xuan nodded gently, and then gently squeezed Fatty Lu's fat hand, reminding Fatty Lu to be careful and cherish himself. And Zhang Guozhu next to him saw the affectionate appearance of Lu Fatty and the famous third son-in-law, and he couldn't help getting goose bumps on his body, gloating in his heart, "Ha, if Wu Guogui sees his son-in-law and man like this, I don't know What kind of reaction will there be?"
