Inside Xuzhou City.

A large number of people stood on both sides of the road and looked at this incredibly elite group of cuirass soldiers.

"These are the emperor's personal soldiers."

"What a tiger!"

"With such elites, the Tatar Emperor and the bandits of the White Lotus Sect will definitely not be able to fight."

"The world will return to the Ming Dynasty again."

In the midst of a discussion.

There were also two men in long robes who stared at the cuirassiers that rumbled into Xuzhou City.

One of them couldn't help but sigh: "With such elites, everyone in the world will have the surname Zhu again."

The one who was sighing was none other than Liu Guangliang, the Liu family of Lanfang who was quite powerful in Lanfang at the time.

Since Lanfang's defeat.

Liu Guangliang returned to the mainland.

However, he didn't have many connections in the Qing court, he didn't have much money, and his abilities were mediocre. He hung around and didn't get an official position or anything.

And beside him was also an old acquaintance, Vicente, a Bannerman who had been removed from the national flag and was treated as a guest of honor by the Liu family.

"Hmph, if you resort to force, you will definitely blow yourself up!"

Vicente gritted his teeth and said.

Liu Guangliang glanced at him and said nothing.

But I started to complain again in my heart.

Do you think that your damn father was possessed by something evil and wanted to go against Emperor Zhu?

The Luo family, which was outclassed by the Liu family in Lanfang at the beginning, is now a relative of the Ming Dynasty. Uncle Luo Fang has become the Duke of the country, and Luo Fangmei, the eldest sister of the Luo family, has given birth to three legitimate sons of Emperor Zhu.

Although many wealthy families in the Ming Dynasty are privately discussing that this small family in Lanfangluo's hometown has been involved in the underworld.

Not worthy of Emperor Zhu at all.

But now they have three princes.

Now everyone's mouths were shut.

The current Ming Dynasty royal family is sparsely populated - there are many descendants of Zhu Yuanzhang, but the conditions for the Ming Dynasty royal family to be recognized as royal family are very strict, and it is not enough to just have the surname Zhu.

Therefore, Queen Luo, with such a strong "production capacity", was naturally the heroic queen of the Ming Dynasty.

If the Liu family, like the Luo family, had simply surrendered to Emperor Zhu, wouldn't they now be a meritorious family that lived with the country in the Ming Dynasty?

It's really a mistake.

The Luo family in Jiaying Prefecture is now a member of the Ming Dynasty.

The Liu family, also from Jiaying Prefecture, are still poor farming in the countryside, and they have no choice but to flee the world - Liu Guangliang is now on the Ming Dynasty's wanted order.

Just when Liu Guangliang was complaining that his dead father’s choice had defrauded future generations.

Vicente, who was next to him, said: "The Guards Cavalry Brigade is here. It seems that Emperor Zhu has also arrived in Xuzhou. There is a high probability that he will fight against the religious bandits! There is hope for the Qing Dynasty again!"

Is there hope again?

Liu Guangliang glanced sideways at Vicente.

The Qing Dynasty retreated all the way from Guangdong until now only the two provinces of Zhili and Shanxi are left.

Is there still hope?

"Brother Liu, Master Fukang Anfu is currently stationed in Zhengding Prefecture. Let's rush over and report the situation in Xuzhou to Master Fu."

Liu Guangliang shook his head slightly in his heart.

Master Fu has to rely on you, a three-legged cat, to know the Ming Dynasty's troop mobilization.

It is truly a miracle that the Qing Dynasty has survived until now.

In fact, the Qing Dynasty certainly did not need the intelligence of Vicente, a loyal minister outside the banner.

Naturally, it was impossible to hide the movement of tens of thousands of Ming troops heading north.

In addition, hundreds of thousands of troops from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom marched south.

The movement was even greater.

At this time within the capital city.

Qianlong had already summoned his ministers to discuss countermeasures.

"It seems that Ni Ming and the religious bandits are going to fight in Kaifeng, Daiming, and Xuzhou! Even Zhu Daohua has come to Xuzhou in person!"

Qianlong's tone was full of expectation.

Now there is a confrontation between three parties in the Central Plains.

Two of the parties started fighting.

What a great opportunity this is for the Qing Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Ming Dynasty is still in Jinzhou. It is led by Zhao Si, Duke of Song Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty. The emperor of the Puppet Ming Dynasty personally led an army of 20,000 to Xuzhou. There is only one brigade of garrison troops in Kaifeng Prefecture, so the bandits can go south to attack.

Kaifeng, Emperor Ni Ming went north to break the siege of Feng. When Ni Ming and the religious bandits start a big fight in Kaifeng, the main force of the religious bandits will also make a move."

Veteran Hai Lancha said.

Now Qianlong's two most trusted generals, and probably the most capable of fighting, one is Agui, who is currently staring at the Ming Army's Liaodong Corps in Shanhaiguan.

One is Fukang'an, who led more than 70,000 regiments to train in Zhengding Prefecture.

Le Bao, who was quite capable of fighting, also brought more than 300,000 Eight Banners soldiers with him.

The generals currently beside Qianlong are the veteran general Hailancha, and there are also generals from the Mesozoic generation such as Mingliang, Helin, and Eldenbao.

In history, in order to suppress the White Lotus Rebellion, Jiaqing recruited a large number of generals armed by Han landlords. But now it is Emperor Zhu who is rebelling. Emperor Zhu also likes to win over Han generals (money corrupts), so now all the bannermen in front of Qianlong are

General.

In the Qing Dynasty, it is time for the Han people to step aside.

Even the top civil servants who can speak now are Liu Yong and Wang Jie.

But there was no other way. It was still unclear whether the Qing Dynasty could keep the Han territory. Moreover, even Sun Shiyi, who had served as a military aircraft, defected to the Ming Dynasty and became the Hong Chengchou of the Qing Dynasty. This Hong Chengchou rebelled against the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.

Clear as day

Traitors have been scolded for hundreds of years, but Sun Shiyi sentenced him to the Qing Dynasty and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. He was a reformer. Who can call him a traitor? At most, he can only be a Tartar traitor, but this Tartar traitor is a bad guy in the Qing Dynasty, but he is a bad guy in the Han people's side.

A very good person.

Therefore, the only people the Qing Dynasty can trust now are the bannermen.

"If the cult bandits and Ni Ming fight, who has a higher chance of winning?" Qianlong frowned, as if he was talking to himself or asking the generals for something.

Mingliang said: "Long live my lord, if the Northern Expeditionary Army against the Ming Dynasty and Emperor Zhu's personal soldiers join forces and have more than 60,000 field soldiers, the religious bandits will definitely be defeated!"

"But now there is an opportunity. An opportunity for the puppet emperor of the Ming Dynasty to lead more than 20,000 troops to face the million-strong army of religious bandits!"

Mingliang's words made all the generals present nod their heads.

Only Qianlong could not make up his mind.

In fact.

The current Qing Dynasty just couldn't make up its mind to give up the only remaining territory in the Han Dynasty.

Let alone Qianlong.

Many Manchu generals present were not reconciled.

It would be too frustrating to leave without a big fight.

So now the opportunity has come.

As long as a large army is sent south to bite Zhao Si's Northern Expeditionary Army, he will not be able to go south to join Zhu Daohua.

Zhu Daohua only had more than 20,000 troops at hand.

And how many were there in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom?

That's millions.

Although most of them are cannon fodder, the number is here.

If only Zhu Daohua could be surrounded somewhere.

Then the situation in the world changed instantly.

What if Emperor Zhu is beaten to death?

Then the Ming Dynasty is expected to immediately shrink its troops and secure the territory in the south. The various parties in the country are fighting each other, and the queen mother keeps the infant emperor to supervise the country.
