Chapter 285 It's okay, I'll ask King Lu again
Lu Si asked the Huai'an Prefectural Prefecture Zheng Biao to spread the news that Chongzhen was not dead, and the third son escaped was to make Nan dare not welcome the King of Tang ascend the throne without authorization.
He wants to send King Fu across the river.
Since he was sure to send Zhu Yousong to Nandu to inherit the throne, Lu Si must make the Emperor Hongguang realize that "borrowing the enemy by pursuing the enemy" is a dead end, and "unifying the enemy to resist the enemy" is his only way to survive.
The Hongguang regime, led by Shi Kefa and Ma Shiying, adopted the decision to "borrow the enemy and pacify the enemy" in the early stage. Not only did they dare not send troops to recover the empty Shandong, but also sent a large amount of grain to the north to "enter" the Qing army. They even enfeoffed the generals of Guanning who had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, not only because of unknown information, but also lacked strategic vision, and blindly retreated and watched, which led to a crash.
There are two bloody lessons of the Northern Song Dynasty's "union of Jin and anti-Liao" and "union of Mongolia and anti-Jin" and "union of Mongolia and anti-Jin". How could the Southern Ming Dukes who were well-read about history books really not know the consequences of "union of enemy troops"?
But they still adhere to the stupid policy of "union and suppressing the enemy". In the final analysis, they dare not make progress, want to rule the river and be in a stable position!
Therefore, it is unreasonable to blame Zhu Yousong for the demise of the Hongguang Dynasty, because Zhu Yousong actually had no say in national policy. To put it bluntly, he had no real power at all. The court and national affairs were in history. The Donglin Party members such as Ma, and the military power was in the four towns in Jiangbei.
Who can Zhu Yousong command him? Who is willing to listen to him?
Therefore, it is more in line with historical reality to say that Zhu Yousong is a puppet emperor.
But that was Lu Si's previous life. Now that he had Lu Si, of course, he could not let Zhu Yousong become a puppet again. Even if he was still a puppet, he had to carry the ropes, rather than Shi Kefa and Ma Shiying, who jointly took the decision to "unite the enemy and pacify the enemy".
The emperor is the strong and powerful.
With 100,000 soldiers of the Huai Army, and with the "orthodox" inheritance of the law, Zhu Yousong could not defeat Shi Kefa and Ma Shiying, then his blessing vassal is really a waste.
Lianming is a must.
This decision is directly related to the life and death of the Huai Army. The concept of being attacked at the top of the North and the two north and south sides is very different.
Lu Si never thought of fighting the Dashun banner to the end, because Li Zicheng's death was destined to Dashun, a regime that had only been established for more than a year, could not be compared with the Ming Dynasty that had been more than two hundred years.
More than 200,000 elite troops of the Shun Army were reorganized into the Zhongzhen Camp, instead of continuing to hold Li Guo as the emperor to continue to fight the Dashun banner, which shows that the Ming Dynasty was still orthodox in the eyes of the senior leaders of the Shun Army. When Zhang Xianzhong died, he left a message directly to ask the four adopted sons to submit to the Ming Dynasty immediately, which also illustrates the key point of the problem.
Since that's the case, how could Lu Si carry the Dashun flag alone?
His surname is Lu, but not Li.
Even if he handled it to the end, he would successfully stop Lu Chen from Huaxia. Should he give up this country to the Li family?
If you don’t let it go, it means usurping the throne and unjustly elevating the country.
If he gave up, he would fuck him. He was either stabbed to death by his subordinates or lured and killed by the Li family.
There will be no good results.
Therefore, this will only help attract some of the elite troops of the Shun army.
Later, we still need to connect to each other.
However, it is not to form an anti-Qing united front with Nandu as the core, but to form an anti-Qing united front with Lu Si as the core.
Lu Si knew this very clearly.
It is true that the Huai Army went north under the name of "rescue the king", but its strategy was to collect Shandong and Henan provinces and establish buffer zones. From beginning to end, Lu Si never told anyone that he would lead his troops to Shaanxi to rescue His Majesty Yongchang, who was demoted from the Nascent Soul to the Golden Pill.
Lu Si, who just built the foundation, has limited abilities.
The establishment of the anti-Qing united front was an urgent task and a grand strategy that could not be avoided. No matter how unfaithful Zhu Ming was at this moment, Lu Si would still hold this flag.
What is the Huai Army most lacking?
It’s food, it’s money!
Where is it?
There is on the other side of the river.
Knowing that the potatoes were there, Lu Si must have been sucking his brain if he didn't dig a sack.
On the premise that the united front cannot be destroyed, Lu Si must bring out Zhu Yousong, the first person in law, and let him implement the national policy of "union of enemy forces to resist the enemy forces" rather than "union of enemy forces to suppress the enemy forces".
The problem is that Zhu Mingjiangshan's first heir was confused by Dashun Huaiyin Hou who was wearing only a pair of underwear.
What?
You want to protect me as the emperor?
Not only Zhu Yousong is confused, but Qi Bao and the others are also confused.
"I, Dashun, was your great enemy to Zhu Ming before, but now we have a common enemy, that is, the Manzhou people who entered the pass! So, let's send you to Nandu to inherit the Zhu Ming legal system."
The question returns to the question just now.
Lu Si doesn't like to talk nonsense to others, and he talks in a foggy way. Isn't it good to be straightforward?
"Let's talk to you two points. First, if you think of Nandu as the emperor, we will send troops to escort you immediately. It may not be convenient to take the land route. After all, we are the Marquis of Huaiyin in Dashun, so how can we protect you from crossing the river? But don't worry, we have a fleet in Haizhou, which can allow you to reach Jiangnan from the sea channel."
Chen Tingyang should be very willing to send King Fu to Nanjing to succeed the throne.
"Second, in order to show our respect for you, the Emperor of Ming, and to ensure that you will not be opposed by the Donglin Party members in Nanjing, we will also send a soldier to escort you there. Of course, this soldier will definitely not be able to use the banner of our Shun Army."
Speaking of this, Lu Si paused, "Actually, there is no need to say more, King Fu must have a clear idea in his heart."
""
Zhu Yousong had roughly aware that the marquis in front of him who wanted to send troops to escort him to Nanjing to be the emperor. In order to cover up, he had to have some means.
"Now, let me have a word, do you want to go to Nandu to be the emperor? If so, let's talk about the specific details."
Lu Si looked at Zhu Yousong.
After hesitating for a while, Zhu Yousong was a little uncertain and said, "Are you really willing to send me to Nandu?"
Lu Si laughed: "We have been talking to you for so long, are you playing with chewing maggots here?"
After a moment of silence, Zhu Yousong nodded.
"Okay, I know that King Fu is a smart person, and talking to smart people is a pleasure."
Lu Si rubbed his palms, "But, the Marquis of Dashun, helps you become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. How can you thank us?"
Paying must be rewarded, and trading needs fairness. This is an eternal truth.
Of course, Zhu Yousong knew that the other party would not be so kind and had made corresponding preparations, but after thinking about it, he didn't know how to repay this Huai thief who inexplicably wanted to help him become the emperor, so he could not cut off his territory, right?
Zhu Yousong was very hesitant. He might not be able to do it if the bid is high. If the bid is low, he is afraid that the other party will be unhappy.
"If King Fu can't figure it out, then let's ask King Lu. People in the world say that King Lu has a reputation. If he can be the magnificent emperor of the Nine Five, it will be a blessing for the people."
Lu Si put his pants on and his bars facing the vassals who might become the emperor, which was a bit inappropriate, making him look like a hero.
