Chapter 292 What a familiar situation!
"Military white sugar... and the formula is kept secret?"
Geng Jingzhong took the large piece of white sugar handed over by Zuo Chunqiu, frowned, and thought to himself: "How to use this whole piece? Grind it and put it with gunpowder?"
It turns out that Geng Jingzhong did not know the exact formula of sugar medicine. He only knew that sugar medicine was white sugar plus gunpowder. Therefore, this "sugar brick" weighing one kilogram was completely useless to him!
Thinking of this, Geng Jingzhong threw the large piece of forbidden sugar back to Zuo Chunqiu, then coughed and said: "Come out!"
It turned out that there were several people hiding behind the two side doors in the lobby. Now they all came out as soon as Geng Jingzhong summoned them.
Those who came out included Liu Bingzheng, the governor of Fujian, Zeng Yangxing, the commander of the Jingnan palace, Liu Yan, Zhao Desheng, Wang Jinggong, Ma Weixing, deputy generals Zhu Tiangui, Wang Jin and others.
After everyone came out, they all saluted Geng Jingzhong and then lined up on the left and right. Among them, Liu Bingzheng had a seat, and the others stood waiting for Prince Geng to ask questions.
"Let's talk about it!" Geng Jingzhong said, "What should we do? Someone named Zhu will send Yang Xiuqing to fight us..."
Yang Xiuqing cannot be defeated!
Of course, it is impossible to surrender... Surrender can only grant you a title of nobility, and this title will not be very stable.
Because Geng Jingzhong’s father, Geng Jimao, was a murderer like the monk Kexi. In the seventh year of Shunzhi, he massacred Guangzhou with Shang Kexi. In the tenth year of Shunzhi, he massacred Chaozhou with the Manchurian Kakamu! And the Chaozhou people are now in the court of Prince Zhu San.
What status is it? Zhu Heji himself is a Chaozhou native!
Since we can't defeat him and surrender is impossible, of course the only option left is to run away and become the "Eastern Emperor"!
"Your Majesty," Zeng Yangxing, the commander of the Jingnan Palace, spoke first, "the people below have been organized according to the methods of the flag army... All the Ding Yus have enlisted in the army! The family members are also led by their respective officers.
, Zuo Ling’s photo has been taken, and we can leave together at any time.”
Emperor Kangxi's "Opening of the Slave Gate" gave Geng Jingzhong an opportunity to militarize his subordinate Green Camp troops.
The biggest difference between the Green Camp and the Banner Army is that the Green Camp only manages soldiers and generals, while the Banner Army combines soldiers and civilians, with soldiers, generals, Dingyu, and family members all organized.
Therefore, the flag army is more organized and the cohesion of the army is stronger - the family members are all in the hands of the master! It is also easier to "change families", the soldiers and the people are organized, and they can act together with an order.
Zeng Yangxing said again: "Your Majesty, not counting Liu Jinzhong's people in Nangan, we now have 175 soldiers under the command, a total of 35,000 troops...including family members, 100,000
The crowd is almost there!"
Geng Jingzhong nodded and said: "That's one hundred thousand people. Counting Liu Jinzhong's troops, there are 130,000 people, which can do big things."
Liu Bingzheng, the governor of Fujian, said: "Your Majesty, I have assembled hundreds of wooden boats on the Min River. The army, family members and luggage can go upstream by boat to Shaowu River. After reaching Shaowu, you can cross Wuyi Mountain and enter Jiangxi!"
Zuo Chunqiu twirled his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the journey from Shaowu to Hukou is only six to seven hundred miles at most, and once you pass Wuyi Mountain, it is basically flat land. If we send elite troops to go ahead, we can complete the six hundred to seven hundred miles in a few days.
.After leaving Wuyi Mountain, you can enter the Jinjiang, Pojiang, and Poyang Lake basins... We can requisition ships while marching, so that when we arrive at the mouth of the lake, we can requisition many ships. Then
If we can take a boat down the east side of the river, we can approach Jiangning. If we can capture Jiangning, the Emperor of the East can look forward to it!"
"Okay," Geng Jingzhong said with a smile, "Emperor Dong is also an emperor... Zuo Military Advisor, I heard that you are good at reading faces. Do you think I have the appearance of an emperor?"
"Look carefully, humble position," Zuo Chunqiu pretended to look at it, then nodded, "It does look like an emperor!"
"Hahaha!" Geng Jingzhong laughed again, "From Fuzhou to Shaowu is my territory, you can go anywhere, but now it's only a few hundred miles after crossing Wuyi Mountain. The longer you can hide it, the better!"
Zuo Chunqiu suggested: "Kangxi will leave Beijing and go south in the next few days. It is estimated that he will come to Xiangyang in the crisp autumn days of September. We might as well propose a plan to mobilize Fujian elite troops to Jiangxi, and then go to Yuanzhou Prefecture to intervene.
Lingguan's plan to surprise Changsha. Wu Sangui's arrangements in Jiangbei must be very strict. If Kangxi wants to win in a hurry, he will fall into our trap. By then our army will cross Wuyi Mountain and enter the junction area of Guangxin and Raozhou in Jiangxi.
The mouth of the lake is not far away, maybe only about three hundred miles!"
"Three hundred miles...if we select elite soldiers and travel both distances, we can complete the journey in three days!" Geng Jingzhong showed an excited look.
Zuo Chunqiu added: "Your Majesty, my subordinates can also go to Jingzhou and ask Wu Sangui to cooperate with us... As long as Wu Sangui sends troops to attack Anlu and Hanyang, the enemies of Wuchang will definitely be able to move westward, so that we can win.
Got it!"
He paused and then said: "As long as Wu Sangui fights in Hanyang, we can rush to Hukou in the name of reinforcing Hanyang, and maybe we can also defraud Hukou. And once Hukou is taken by me,
Wuchang, Hanyang, Nanchang, Jiujiang and other places will be attacked from both sides. Kangxi will definitely give up Wuchang, Hanyang, Nanchang, Jiujiang and other places, and transfer the land and water armies to the upper reaches of the Han River... In this way, the prince can take over Jiangdong and become the emperor.
If you want to retire, you can also rely on Wu Sangui to become the king of Jiangxi first, and then Xu Tu Anhui."
"Okay, okay..." Geng Jingzhong wiped his hands, "You can advance or retreat with ease, that's it!" He looked at Liu Bingzheng again, "Liu Futai, why don't we hand the emperor a note together!
"
"Okay!" Liu Bingzheng smiled, "Let's hand over the coupons together!"
Geng Jingzhong said to Zuo Chunqiu again: "Military advisor, you should leave quickly and go to Jingzhou to meet President Wu!"
...
It was August 15th, the twelfth year of Kangxi.
When the annual Mid-Autumn Festival came, Emperor Kangxi, the little saint in Beijing, felt that he was getting closer and closer to victory.
Gonna win!
Because the memorials and title books sent from various places are full of good news!
After the green soldiers and local officials from all over the country learned the good news that the slave gate was open, they were really excited.
Memorials and inscriptions on "Begging for Slave" flew to Beijing like snowflakes. They almost filled the South Study Room with Emperor Kangxi's imperial papers.
Even Zu Zeqing, who was isolated in Guangxi by Wu Sangui, sent an envoy in disguise to send the inscription "Begging as a Slave" to Emperor Kangxi... Although Zu Zeqing himself had long been a slave of the Eight Banners Han Army
.But there are still many people under him who cannot be slaves. The soldiers he leads are from the Green Battalion, and they all look forward to becoming slaves for the little holy master Kangxi!
Seeing so many people "begging for slavery", Kangxi was so excited that he didn't even look at the moon. At night, he watched the memorials of the slaves with a few confidants in the South Study... The more he watched, the happier he became.
!
"Your Majesty...the secrets of Geng Jingzhong and Liu Bingzheng have arrived!"
Gabra's voice suddenly came from outside the door of the south study room, and then he saw an excited Gabra coming in holding two opened memorial boxes.
Both of these documents were secret documents, and Gabra was not qualified to read them. He could only open the box to see if there was any bomb inside. In fact, there was no need to look at it. After opening the box, the old man was still alive, which meant that there was no bomb.
bomb.
If there is a bang...then the "lead concierge" who represents the positive yellow flag will have to be replaced!
But looking at the expression on Gabra's face, it was obvious that he had read the memorial.
Kangxi, who was now in a good mood, did not care about it and asked him to take out the two memorials in the box and show them to him.
Gabra first showed Geng Jingzhong's memorial to Kangxi. When Kangxi opened it and looked at it, his face suddenly lit up with joy.
"Okay, okay, okay!" Kangxi said three times in a row, then took Liu Bingzheng's book and read it again. After reading it, he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled and said to the ministers in the south study, "Geng Jingzhong wants to
