Chapter 492: Credentials
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty regarded Li Laiheng as a hero of the anti-Qing Dynasty, so he naturally settled the accounts. After all, all the compulsory textbooks for all soldiers when they joined the army and trained. Li Laiheng has been portrayed as a great hero. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty wanted to harm him, wouldn't he shoot himself in the foot?
Li Laiheng is a real person. When he thinks of his carefulness, he becomes even more embarrassed. He stamps his feet: "Li is going to apologize to the emperor. Otherwise, he is really uneasy."
Originally, Li Laiheng was worried that the Ming Dynasty would take away his military power and remove his wings. At this time, he removed his calculating intentions. Therefore, he ignored the army's journey south to apologize, and naturally sent Li Xiao a signal to let him take over the Kuidong Army.
Li Xiao quickly stopped him: "The Holy Lord is about to arrive in Hankou soon. The emperor has announced the order to personally expedition. It will not be too late for Uncle Shi to apologize again."
Li Laiheng gave up and said: "Since that is the case, the most urgent task is to immediately eliminate the stubborn Tartars and prepare to welcome them."
Li Xiao was excited and nodded when he remembered that there were still some Qing soldiers entrenched in the city.
In the evening, the Ming army and the Kuidong army launched a huge offensive. All streets and alleys were suddenly filled with soldiers, and even the roofs were ambushed by Ming army musketeers. The number of Qing soldiers was small, and there were many streets and alleys that needed to be defended. In addition, they were tired and hungry and had a low morale. They repeatedly shrank their troops towards the Nancheng Ferry. Naturally, they could not escape from the Nancheng Ferry. After all, this was flowing to the Yangtze River, and there were probably Mingjun's ships serving them in the Yangtze River area.
For a moment, the dilapidated ferry was full of chaos, some escaped from the front line, some were ordered to inspect deserters, and some were ordered to garrison. The chaos was a group of Niu Lu could not stop, and everyone knew that the current situation could not be reversed. In the city, there were nearly 100,000 Kuidong Army and Ming Army. At this time, half of their casualties were already in the south city, and from time to time, several Qing soldiers who were single-mindedly ambushed out of the houses in the south city. No matter how they resisted, it was only a matter of time before they were destroyed.

When a letter of the Ming Emperor and a newspaper from Hubei reached Beijing, it was already winter. Heavy snow with goose feathers drifted in the capital. The cold wind whizzed, making people's hands and feet cold and filled people's hearts. News came from the palace that Qibu slept with 30,000 new military camps were wiped out. The emperor was furious and even the stove that the Empress Dowager sent him was smashed. Seven or eight ministers were punished, including the head of the Ministry of Works who supervised the construction of armies, and officials from several places to even the envoys from the Netherlands were vented. Fortunately, Kangxi restrained his anger at that time and gave up.
Two days later, all the titles and places in the capital were summoned into the palace and more than 400 people entered the palace in a mighty manner. From the Shenwu Gate to the Taihe Hall, knelt down and listened to Xuan.
Kangxi from the Taihe Hall; he sat alone in the Golden Hall with a calm face. He watched the letters from the Southern Ming Dynasty sent to the country and was ecstatic. The letters of the country only talked about the words, "The king of China respects the chiefs of the Diyi. Those who are close to the heavens will be punished and punished the crimes. The flags are directed to the north. Now they are governing millions of elite soldiers. Only then will they meet Erdi to hunt the world."
The original meaning of this sentence is very simple. The Chinese monarch declared to the chief of the Yidi. Recently, I have been ordered by heaven and earth to attack the guilty people. The military flag points to the north. Now I have trained millions of elite soldiers and are about to compete with you for the world.
Although it was only a few words, it was very provocative. This letter of writing a letter to the local people in Zhu Jun had made Kangxi restless for two days. In the past, he had just reported to the Xinshi Emperor thousands of miles away by his subordinates. Now, this great enemy of his life has finally surfaced. He was released in front of him with a letter of nationality with his teeth and claws.
The news followed was that the Emperor of Southern Ming had already announced the order to personally fight. The entire Jiangnan had already made a decision to fight for the first time. Now, it was the time when Kangxi decided to choose. He didn't have many choices. The first was to put aside the rules of this letter of nationality and organize defense. The second was to stand up like a man and take all his capital to personally fight with him. In one battle, he won the best.
This choice was really hard for the young Kangxi to make a decision. He still had half of the land, dozens of concubines, and endless wealth. He didn't want to bet. But the situation in front of him could no longer tolerate him to withstand and retreat. The army in the Southern Ming Dynasty would eat up his land little by little. The enemy in the destiny would command thousands of troops and horses as if he was walking all over his land when the crowd entered the pass. Forbearance was just to face it one day later. What's more, the insults in the letter of the country would not allow him to retreat?
The king of Di Yi? These four words are like poisonous needles that penetrate the heart of Kangxi. People have been in the country for decades. This word most hates, as if racial discrimination in later generations is always unacceptable, but they will never think about why they are Di Yi.
"Master, the princes, princes, Beile, and all the civil and military officials have all come and kneel outside the hall.
The general manager Liang Jiugong carefully lifted his robe. The master was not good these days and was very angry. Liang Jiugong was also cautious in serving him and did not dare to neglect the slightest.
"Let Soetu come in first." Kangxi opened his blood-stained eyes. He hadn't slept well for two days, but for the past two days he was always filled with anger.
"Zhe." Liang Jiugong bent his calf, beat him a thousand times, and then rushed to pass the order.
"Xuan, the Minister of the Inner Guards and the Grand Secretary of the Baohe Palace, Soetu, who was the Grand Secretary of the Baohe Palace, shouted loudly outside the hall. Then several eunuchs in the standing squad also repeated two sentences at the top of their voices. At this time, four hundred officials were kneeling everywhere outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The weather was severe and some elderly princes and princes were helped to the other side by the eunuch, and no one else was treated well. A trace of cold air penetrated the knee marrow on the cold floor tiles. Many people thought that the emperor summoned them into the hall and couldn't help but feel secretly happy. However, when Liang Jiugong finished speaking, except for Soetu, among the officials, who shook his body and stood up, the rest were naturally disappointed.
"Slave Soetu pays homage to the master." Soetu, who entered Baohe Palace, was also cautious. He understood how great the demise of the new military camp was for this young emperor. It was a bad thing. Although Soetu was the queen's father, the prince's grandfather, and the most trusted minister in front of the emperor, he would inevitably suffer.
"Master, you are afraid... Alas, state affairs are difficult, but Master doesn't have to always struggle with him. The dragon body is important."
Kangxi pursed his lips, still tense, his complexion improved slightly under his head. He hooked his fingers and said, "Let's go to the palace to speak."
Soetu immediately walked up to the golden hall along the jade steps and stood carefully beside the imperial chair. I wonder what the emperor meant, Kangxi had casually handed the letter of the country to Soetu: "Look at it, I will shake out all my thoughts. I want to listen to the truth."
Kangxi's last sentence made Tu feel uneasy. He thought to himself, was the emperor suspected that he had told lies in the past? After thinking about it, Soetu did not dare to neglect it. He immediately picked up the letter of nationality and read it, and then he felt relieved. It turned out that the emperor was angry because it was not the matter of the new military camp, but the letter of nationality sent by the Ming people. He deliberately looked at it a few more times, and after he adjusted his thoughts, he carefully handed the letter of nationality back: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor."
At this point, Soetu has only made a few flatteries to make the young emperor feel cheerful.
Kangxi's eyes fell directly on Soetu: "Where does joy come from?" This question was a bit stern, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with Soetu's congratulations. At this time, the old guy was still congratulating him, which really annoyed him.
Soetu immediately weakened his legs and knelt straight: "Emperor, is the wording of the fake emperor Zhu Youlang in this letter of national letter similar to Cao Cao back then?"
Kangxi had discovered this problem a long time ago and nodded, but he did not think of anything to congratulate. However, he knew that Soetu's words must have some content, so he did not speak.
"As the saying goes, arrogant soldiers will be defeated. Cao Cao held many soldiers and generals back then, so he wrote a letter to Sun Quan, saying that he would hunt Wu with General Sun. His tone was so rampant that he might be worse than this letter of national letter. I only saw that the successive defeats of the Qing Dynasty were not completely bad. The so-called "Sai Weng's horse is a blessing. Now the Ming army is probably already full of arrogance, and Zhu Youlang is even more proud of the invincible world. How can he be undefeated now?"
Soetu said cheerfully: "In fact, the main reason why the Qing Dynasty was defeated was that most of the soldiers who fought against the Ming army were mainly green camps. These green camp soldiers and slaves knew that, not to mention the combat power, they were all a group of ungrateful wolves who were not familiar with them. There were many surrenders and turners. For example, this time, the new military camp went south to wipe out the bandits. The Hankou City was about to fall. Qi Bu Exploded a battle with the bandits before entering the city, and defeated them in a quarter of an hour. However, the green camp soldiers stationed at the ferry were not good, and the Ming army crossed the river.
, after all, I have to guard for a day or two, and I have to give some time to the new military camp under Hankou City. But these turtles were good. In less than a few hours, they gave the ferry to the Ming army. This is not counting. Except for the deputy general Feng Kaishan, all the fallen besides, Hankou City is at a critical moment of attacking the tough situation. The Ming army suddenly appeared on both sides. Even if the warriors of Manchus are brave, they may have been decided. Therefore, I think that the wars over the years have been so cowardly that they are inseparable from those green camp soldiers."
