Chapter 594 Is this going to be a war of three emperors?
"What? Kang Ma... Kangxi, he, he is coming to Guanzhong? Why?"
Wu Yingxiong was still afraid of Kangxi. When he heard that Kangxi was coming, he even forgot about his sadness. He quickly got up from the coffin where Kong Sizhen was sleeping and looked back at Sangji Gyatso.
Sangyi Gyatso smiled and said: "Don't be afraid of the Emperor. The Emperor has no ill intentions when he comes to Guanzhong. He just wants to meet with the Emperor and discuss the matter of fighting against the Ming Dynasty together."
"Let's fight together to expose the world?" Wu Yingxiong didn't have much interest in this matter, and he immediately showed a confused expression - he was actually the most peaceful among the three-thirds of the Lords, and had never thought about unifying the world. Of course,
He also didn't want to be "stabbed" by others... He would be satisfied if the three kingdoms of Zhou, Ming and Qing could live in peace and harmony.
He actually launched the "Five-Road Expedition against the Qing Dynasty" to assassinate his brother Wu Yingqi. Now that his goal has been achieved, he doesn't even want to take the land in Guanzhong, so he plans to withdraw his troops and return to Xiangjing... The next step is for him to go to Xiangjing.
Kyoto does not intend to stay, but is preparing to develop Sichuan and move its capital to Chongqing.
As long as Sichuan can be developed and the mountain city of Chongqing can be turned into the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, Wu Yingxiong can rest peacefully.
Sangyi Gyatso understood what Wu Yingxiong was thinking, and said sternly: "The emperor is unaware of something. The great emperor learned through secret reconnaissance through Confucian disciples and spies from Niangan that Baoming had been recruiting troops on a large scale since last year, with as many as hundreds of thousands of people.
!And they also borrowed tens of millions of taels for military expenses from the private sector!
However, the number of troops used by the Ming army in Korea was only tens of thousands, and the troops used in Liaodong had been hidden in Dengzhou for a long time, and were not newly recruited. Moreover, Liaodong and Korea were relatively stable at the moment. The emperor used the scorched earth strategy, and in the critical moment
It is no problem to build mountain cities everywhere and temporarily resist them for one or two years. Therefore, it is impossible for the Ming army to invade Liaodong from Liaodong and North Korea.
Therefore, the Emperor estimates that Bao Ming’s army will either cross the Huaihe River and march westward along the Yangtze River! What choice does the Emperor think Bao Ming will make?”
Zhu Heji recruited hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the country! Of course, it was impossible to hide such a big news from Kangxi. If his Confucian disciples and minions in the stick department didn't even know about this, wouldn't they become the main breadwinners?
Son?
Wu Yingxiong actually knew about the Ming Dynasty's massive military campaign, but he had previously used Emperor Zhou's plan to attack the Qing Dynasty in five directions, and it was difficult for Zhu Heji to betray him, so he was not too worried.
But now that Wu Yingxiong has lost his shame, can he still expect Zhu Heji to show his shame?
When Sanji Gyatso saw Wu Yingxiong's pale face, he knew that this "stupid bear" had also woken up. So he said with a worried look: "The emperor used to fight under the banner of conquering the Qing Dynasty, but Zhu Heji cherished his reputation as a saint.
, I still have some scruples...Now, haha, Huguang is empty!"
"This..." Cold sweat broke out on Wu Yingxiong's forehead!
Pick the persimmons soft enough to pinch!
Even if Huguang is not empty, Zhu Heji will definitely concentrate his troops to attack Huguang first. If we don't count the 30,000 troops brought by Wu Guogui, Wu Yingxiong only has an army of 100,000 people at hand, while Kangxi can bring in 300,000 troops by selling iron! Zhu Heji
If you are so good at arithmetic, don't you know that three hundred thousand is more than one hundred thousand?
As if to prove that Wu Yingxiong was the soft and sweet persimmon, when Wu Yingxiong and Sangyi Gyatso were staring at each other, they heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, and then saw Hong Shiming striding in.
At this time in history, he had already died in depression because of his lack of ambition and the constant suspicion that he was Wu Sangui's accomplice. But now he has great power, has high official positions, has been made a bachelor, and has been named a marquis.
He also became a cheap father-in-law, and he really wanted the wind and the rain. By this time, all kinds of depression were gone, and of course he was reluctant to die.
But today, the old man looked panicked and rushed into the main hall where the emperor was walking. He did not go to cry in front of the coffin of his "good daughter" Kong Sizhen, but rushed directly to Wu Yingxiong, not even saluting.
Forgetting, he opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Hanyang Mansion! On the tenth day of the fifth lunar month, the hypocritical Confucian thieves in Wuchang City rose up and gathered thousands of people to attack Sheshan and Wushengmen. Mr. Fangge led Fubiao to quell the rebellion.
The officers and soldiers of Fubiao have long been deceived by the hypocritical Confucian traitors and defected before the battle... Your Majesty, Wuchang City has been lost!"
"What?" Wu Yingxiong's eyesight went dark and he was about to faint, but Lama Sanji was quick to take a step forward and support him.
The Prime Minister Xia Guoxiang who was guarding Wu Yingxiong was still pretending to shed tears for Kong Sizhen. When he heard that Wuchang was lost, he immediately became anxious and asked: "Where is Wuchang County? How is Wuchang County?"
Wuchang Prefecture and Wuchang County are two places. Wuchang Prefecture is under the jurisdiction of Jiangxia County, while Wuchang County is more than a hundred miles east of Wuchang Prefecture. Wuchang County and Huanggang, the prefecture of Huangzhou Prefecture, face each other across the river.
There is a Fankou Fortress located on the edge of the Yangtze River, surrounded by water.
The Fankou Fortress, Wuchang County, and Huangzhou City on the north bank of the Yangtze River were the strongholds of the Zhou Dynasty to resist the Ming Dynasty's Western Expedition.
Wu Yingxiong stationed 8,000 troops there, and also sent generals Gao Dejie and Han Daren to garrison the area.
If we look at the battlefield situation alone, Wuchang County's gains and losses are definitely more important than Wuchang City! Because once Wuchang County is broken through by the Ming Army, the Ming Army's 300,000 troops will flow like a tide along the Yangtze River towards Wuchang, Hanyang, and Hankou
...
"No, no news..." Hong Shiming said, "The defenders in Wuchang County are also under the control of Mr. Fang Ge. If there is any news, they must report to Mr. Fang Ge first. Now the city of Wuchang has been captured by the hypocritical rebels. Wuchang
Even if the county is attacked by the Ming army, the news will not be able to spread for a while!"
Wu Yingxiong had come to his senses at this time, and said feebly: "Fankou Fortress was built by the late emperor and is indestructible. Even if Zhu Heji had millions of soldiers, it would be difficult to attack it... Hurry, call the generals to hold an attack."
Military meeting, I will immediately return troops to set up defenses!"
"yes!"
Most of the Yi Ding soldiers around Wu Yingxiong left in response. Xia Guoxiang and Hong Shiming also left in a hurry. In the huge palace, only a few Yi Ding soldiers, Wu Yingxiong, and Sanji Lama were left.

I met him... I have to return to Xiangjing immediately and personally command the defense! The land in Guanzhong is the territory of the Qing Dynasty. I dare not covet it. I will return it to the Qing Dynasty after Wu Guogui moves all his family members to Sichuan.
clear.
In addition, I also ask the master to tell the great emperor that his lips are dead but his teeth are cold, Shu is dead and Wu is in danger! My great Zhou Dynasty is really unable to resist the strong Ming. If the great emperor cannot send troops to rescue... it will take several months so soon.
In as little as three years, the Great Zhou Dynasty will be destroyed. By then, Zhu Heji will have two out of three parts of the world!"
Lama Sanji said: "Don't worry, the emperor. The emperor is a wise and wise master. He will never watch the Ming Dynasty destroy the Zhou Dynasty. However, it will take time for the emperor to mobilize his troops for the southern expedition. Please protect Yuezhou and Jingmen no matter what.
Jingzhou and other places.”
Wu Yingxiong nodded: "Okay, I will definitely wait for help!"
...
The Ming army launched a large-scale westward expedition, and the news of the successful Confucian uprising in Wuchang was quickly delivered to Datong, Shanxi Province, where Emperor Kangxi lived, by a messenger sent by Lama Sanji at a speed of 600 miles.
At this time, Kangxi had already held a simplified version of the Kuritai Conference in Kukutun and obtained the title of Great Khan of Mongolia for himself. In fact, he did not wait for Prince Ji and Zhasak of various Mongolian tribes scattered everywhere.
The prince only held a meeting with the leaders of the Mongolian coalition forces who were surrendered by him after the war in Qilbo, as well as Taiji from the Tumut tribe and the Ordos tribe, plus the princes of the Qing Mongolia who followed him on the expedition.
.
As for the two representatives of the Mongol Khanate, Junggar and Kushote, they did not come at all... However, Kangxi felt that he was the proud disciple of the Great Lama, and Kushote, the leader of Junggar, listened to the words of the Big Lama, so he
This means that senior brother Galdan and Keshote Khan King D Laihan voted for themselves.
Although Burni's whereabouts are still unknown, the Mongolian tribes that originally submitted to Burni, including the remnants of Chahar hiding on the Houtao grassland at the foot of Yinshan Mountain, now no longer dare to resist Kangxi, at least in name!
