Yang Zhan arrived too late, and Wu Sangui's rebellion against the Qing Dynasty was imminent. People from all over the world under the banner of anti-Qing Dynasty gathered at Pingxi Palace, and the arrival of Yang Zhan and his wife aroused cheers.

Wu Sangui held his hand and smiled, "It's a good time Lord Shu. With you joining us, there's no need to worry about our great cause failing!"

Yang Zhan said politely: "Where, where, my husband and I are already old. We have long ignored the affairs of the world and have nothing to do. We just come to the prince to enjoy the autumn breeze."

"Oh, Lord Shu, do you think I'm old? I'm seven or eight years older than you. Didn't Su Dongpo have a poem? How do you say it? Let me think about it, 'Who said that there is no less in life?

The flowing water in front of me can still reach the west, so I will not sing about yellow chickens with white hair. 'Before I die, drive away the Manchus and restore my country of Han people, so that I will not live in vain!"

After saying this, Wu Sangui twisted his beard and laughed, his pride rising to the sky.

Yang Zhan looked around. If he said something disappointing at this moment, he would definitely end up unhappy. He cupped his hands and said, neither humble nor arrogant: "The prince is still as heroic as he was before, Yang Zhan admires him very much!"

It was night, Yang Zhan and Wu Sangui had a candlelight conversation. "Your Majesty, is it really impossible not to fight?" His sincere eyes forced Wu Sangui to answer seriously.

"No, the Qing Dynasty and I have reached the point where either you die or I die. Kangxi forced me to withdraw from the feudal vassal, but I still can't escape the fate of being a dog or a rabbit!"

"If the prince does not want to fight, Yang Zhan is willing to risk his own life and go to Beijing to negotiate for the prince."

"Forget it, Lord Shu, I know that those of you who practice Buddhism and Taoism believe in 'Only virtue can move the heavens, no matter how far you reach'. You must know that 'people who are not of my race will have different minds.' You can convince me, but

It is absolutely impossible to persuade Kangxi. Besides, when I left Sichuan, you once said something to me. I always thought that you supported me in resisting the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty. In these years, isn't our cooperation going towards this?

Directional push?”

Yang Zhan stood up, turned his back to Wu Sangui, and said coldly: "I did place my hope on you, but I didn't expect that what you did to Emperor Yongli was so heinous! I heard that you beheaded him

At that time, he once asked you: "Aren't you a Han? Aren't you a minister of the Ming Dynasty? Why did you betray the country and betray the emperor to such an extent?" It seems that you did not answer his question. My lord, I really want to know what was in your heart at that time.

Real thoughts!”

Wu Sangui subconsciously touched the dagger on his waist, but he knew in his heart that if Yang Zhan wanted to kill him, he would not be able to put up any resistance, so he might as well face it calmly.

"I know you will come to question me sooner or later, and I won't hide it from you. The Ming Dynasty in my heart is the Ming Dynasty of Emperor Chongzhen. He still has two princes alive. But those ambitious people in the Southern Ming Dynasty went to establish Prince Fu or Prince Lu.

These people are just puppets of the careerists, helping them to seize control of the country. Yongli was actually willing to be used by the rebels and led by Zhang Xianzhong's adopted sons. Has he forgotten whose hands the Ming Dynasty was destroyed? How can he deserve it?

To deserve the title of Emperor of the Ming Dynasty? I have never recognized the so-called Nan Ming. What I want to restore is the Ming Dynasty!"

Yang Zhan sneered again, "Then which prince of Emperor Chongzhen are you going to support?"

Wu Sangui said angrily: "Lord of Shu, are you like those people who think that I, Wu Sangui, want to be the emperor? I tell you, if I don't find the third prince Ding Wang Zhu Cijiong or the fourth prince Yong Wang Zhu Cijiong, I will not support the emperor for a day!"

"

"Then you rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty in the name of King Pingxi?"

"No, I have already thought about it. I want to proclaim myself the King of Zhou of the Ming Dynasty. I will appoint the marshal to recruit soldiers and horses from all over the world. I will raise an army to rebel, revive the Ming Dynasty and conquer the captives. I will conquer the country and deliver it to the princes of Emperor Chongzhen. Yes.

My desire for revenge has led the wolf into the house, so I will personally drive out the Tartars and restore the Ming Dynasty!"

Hearing this, Yang Zhan couldn't help but feel a little excited. But he thought of the people of Shu who had suffered so much, and promptly suppressed the urge to "I'll do it with you" and slapped his hand on his thigh, "Wonderful, Your Majesty,

If you want to restore the empire of Emperor Chongzhen, the people of the world will definitely follow you. Wang Shangzhixin of Pingnan in Guangdong and Geng Jingzhong, the king of Jingnan in Fujian, will listen to you. The three vassals will gather their strength and will soon form a branch to compete with the Qing court.

In addition, Wang Fuchen, the admiral of Shaanxi, and Li Benzhen, the admiral of Guizhou, are all your former generals. If you raise your arms, they will definitely rise up!"

Wu Sangui took a step forward and held Yang Zhan's hand tightly, "Lord Shu, Mr. Yang, although I already have their power, what I want most is your support! Just give me the right words today

, do it, or not do it?”

Yang Zhan's eyes burned brightly, "What do you mean if you do it? What do you mean if you don't do it?"

"If you do, then change your Shujiang Alliance to the Shu Army, restore the title of Zhu Ping and the King of Shu, and restore your title of General. You lead the Shu Army out of the mountains and meet me in the Central Plains. We will go all the way north and kill Kangxi."

Don't stay! If you don't want to do it, you must ask the Lord of Shu to dissolve the Shujiang Alliance, completely retire to seclusion, and give up Sichuan. I will send a large army into Sichuan to block Kangxi."

Neither of these two options left a way for the Shu people to survive, and they would inevitably encounter military disasters no matter what.

Yang Zhan was silent in thought, and Wu Sangui patted him on the shoulder, "Mr. Yang, how have I treated you over the years? No matter how much Li Guoying makes trouble, I will fulfill your desire to care for the people of Shu and have never sent a single soldier into Shu.

Right? After Li Guoying died of illness, I was afraid that Kangxi would take the opportunity to send troops to Sichuan, so I urged my subordinate Wu Zhimao to replace him. The dignified Sichuan Army General is still a polished commander. I am just waiting for your word."

Yang Zhan chuckled and said: "Having cooperated with the prince for so many years, it is natural that we have a life-and-death friendship. If the prince wants to cause trouble, Yang has no reason not to obey. Unfortunately, senior brother Pingxi has already given up on being the king of Shu. We senior brothers

Now I am concentrating on cultivating Taoism, and I really have no intention of competing with others, and I am especially afraid of another war in Sichuan. Your Majesty, please be kind and show Yang a new way, so that he can not only participate in your great cause of reviving the Ming Dynasty and conquer the captives, but also save the people of Shu.

Military disaster."

"So, the Lord of Shu wants to trade with me again?" Wu Sangui blinked slyly and quickly calculated in his mind, "I'm afraid that the Lord of Shu won't agree if I tell you the number!"

"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter. As long as Yang can do it, he will give it his all!"

"One million grains and grass, one million firearms, one million gold and silver! It's not like I am a lion, but Lord Shu, you are worth this amount." Wu Sangui made this condition in one breath, and he was shocked.

How easy is it to win this battle without these three million? If Yang Zhan helped solve the problem, it would be more beneficial than if he organized a Shu army to join.

But where did Yang Zhan get these three million? After all, the Land of Abundance has not yet recovered its vitality.

"Hahaha, the prince really thinks highly of Yang! However, since the prince has made this condition, how dare Yang refuse to agree? I agree!"

"You agreed? Did you really agree?"

"I really agree! However, the prince also has to agree to a few conditions."
