The Han army was the leader of Huang Banner, and Geng Zhongming, the King of Huaishun, was scared to death by Dorgon. Lu Si remembered this story very clearly. The fuse of this incident was that someone reported that Geng Zhongming was hiding a fugitive. As a result, the Lord of Geng, who had been renamed King of Jingnan by the Qing court, hanged himself to death in Ji'an, Jiangxi.

The grandfather was forced to commit suicide must have left an indelible impression in his young grandson Geng Jingzhong's mind. Therefore, the third generation of Jingnan King Geng Jingzhong responded decisively to Wu Sangui's opposition to the Qing Dynasty, changing the "slave prime minister" to a disrespectful form, and ordered officials and civilians to cut their braids and keep their hair. The clothes, scarves and hats were all in accordance with the Ming system. The troops of Jingnan vassals went north to Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Anhui, and greatly attacked the Qing army, and their momentum was no weaker than Wu Sangui.

Unfortunately, he was stabbed in the back by Zheng Jing, the King of Yanping of the Ming Dynasty, which caused unstableness in the rear of Geng's troops, and gave the Qing army the opportunity to defeat them.

Thanks to his two lives, Lu Si knew the general's background very well, so he naturally wanted to bite the gap-like egg.

As one of the four vassal kings of the Han army, Geng Zhongming would rather commit suicide in Jiangxi than dare to fight against the Qing Dynasty. The reason was that the Qing army was powerful at that time, and the Green Camp was great, and the anti-Qing climax was suppressed. Kong Youde entered Guangxi, Shang Kexi entered Guangdong, and Wu Sangui entered Sichuan. The Qing court regained the initiative in the war. Therefore, Geng Zhongming, who had only more than 10,000 soldiers, did not dare to take risks. In order not to harm his descendants and preserve his generals and sects, he had to choose to commit suicide, so that Dorgon could not use the opportunity to abolish his Jingnan vassal.

Afterwards, Dorgon could not pursue the matter anymore, but he believed that Geng Zhongming was the last order and did not give him a sacrifice, nor did he allow his son Geng Jimao to inherit the title. It was not until after Dorgon's death that Shunzhi took power, and Geng Jimao only succeeded in the title of King Jingnan.

But now, Geng Zhongming has a better choice other than suicide.

Kong Youde was killed by the Huai Army in Shandong and could not shake Geng Zhongming, and the current decline of the Qing court could not not touch his heart.

Lu Si made two arrangements for Geng Zhongming, who was considerate of Han people.

The first arrangement was to let Gao Jin return quickly and mobilize people to "tempt" the fugitives to Geng Zhongming's army, and then "report" the matter to Dorgon, thus making Dorgon wary of Geng Zhongming.

However, Dorgon, who was lying on his brother's credit for his brother Huang Taiji, was far inferior to his brother Huang Taiji's political, military capabilities, and mind. As long as Geng Zhongming has some clarity and secretly ambitions, rumors are endless, and the facts have proved this, Dorgon must attack Geng Zhongming.

The second arrangement was to send someone to persuade Geng Zhongming anyway.

Lu Si gave Geng Zhongming three choices.

The first choice is to do nothing, and in the same way, Shang Kexi was usually used to delay his artillery army from participating in the siege in the battle of Nanyang.

The second option is to occupy Liangxiang and separate the connection between Beijing and Dorgon's army.

The third option is to turn around and attack Beijing immediately.

The lobbyist was Fang Dayou, the governor of Shandong of the Qing Dynasty.

Fang Dayou, who was very energetic at the beginning of last year, suffered the biggest blow in his life in Shandong. The death of the governor Wang Aoyong, who went to Shandong with him, deeply stimulated the Shandong governor of the Qing Dynasty. The subsequent Prince Su Haoge and the annihilation of King Kong Youde, made the Shandong governor begin to rethink the future of life.

Therefore, when Governor Fang was driven from Linqing to Jingzhou, Beizhi by the Huai Army and then from Jingzhou to Jiaohe, Governor Fang completely lost his progress in life. As Hong Chengchou said to the Qing court, this Shandong governor did not care about political affairs every day, was confused and knew how to write and write poems, which was no longer useful.

Half a month after the Qing court accepted Hong Chengchou's secret disclosure, an edict was issued from the capital, and the Shandong Governor who surrendered Fang Dayou to prepare for the troops in Qingzhou.

"The entire territory of Shandong is an enemy. My governor is already famous and untrue. Now I ask me to prepare for the Qingzhou soldiers. The court thinks I am still alive."

Fang Dayou is always unconscious. He escaped from Shandong and did nothing, not that he did not want to make a difference, but that he could do nothing.

What else can he do without soldiers, pay, food, officials or even officials?

Since the Qing court hated him and could not get involved in the affairs of Beizhi, Fang Dayou wrote a letter to retire on the grounds of his old age and aging. After receiving Fang Dayou's letter, Dorgon did not vaguely and agreed directly.

In this way, Fang Dayou packed up the bed and took two old servants to leave. He did not dare to go back to Beijing, but planned to detour Henan and return to his hometown in Zhejiang.

However, at this moment, Hu Shangyou, the ambassador of the North of Dashun, sent someone to secretly meet with a lot of money. After a deep conversation, Governor Fang rekindled his hope of starting his career in his heart, thinking that although he was almost fifty years old, he was still in his prime and might not be unable to serve in the new dynasty.

Soon, Fang Dayou returned to Beijing. Although he, the governor of Shandong, was already a civilian, the loss of Shandong had little to do with him, so the Qing court did not make things difficult for him after returning to the capital, and still let him live in his original house.

I lived there for almost half a year. On this day, Fang Dayou, who was painting "Lower and Mountain Scenery", suddenly received a wax ball. After opening it, I was stunned for a long time. Finally, I made a thick stroke on the painting picture. This painting was finally made and should be a treasure for later generations.

Three days later, looking at the former Shandong governor who had no relationship in front of him, Geng Zhongming was very surprised and didn't know what the other party came to his army to do.

"Is it clear that Prince Geng is in trouble?"

Fang Dayou's opening remarks are too straightforward and too cliché, but they are in line with the facts. Geng Zhongming is indeed going to be in trouble.

Because just yesterday, the Regent Dorgon sent someone to ask about the fugitive.

Geng Zhongming did not dare to conceal, so he said that he would immediately investigate the soldiers who had hidden the fugitives without permission. He would report them after verifying the number of fugitives. He asked the Regent to sue him for punishment.

At this time, everyone in the Geng clan was very worried, worried that the Regent would not spare them lightly.

Therefore, although Fang Dayou's opening remarks did not say anything clearly, they really touched the thoughts of Geng Zhongming and his subordinates.

"The general trend of Fang is actually in the best way, not in the Qing Dynasty."

Fang Dayou seemed to have eaten the courage of Xiong Xin and leopard, and even spoke out bluntly, making Geng Zhongming's eyelids twitch.

"I am here to bring three positions to Prince Geng, but I don't know what position the prince is willing to do?" Fang Dayou sat down without hesitation as he spoke.

After a long silence in the tent, Geng Zhongming's voice came: "I wonder why Lord Fang said the three positions?"

"General, Prince, Prince." Fang Dayou seemed to be alone.

"this?"

Geng Zhongming and his subordinates were puzzled.

Fang Dayou did not go around the circle and said bluntly that if Geng's troops remained unmoved, Geng Zhongming would be the general after Dashun destroyed the Qing Dynasty.

If Dorgon's army was blocked by Liangxiang, leaving him without a way to go from north to south, then after Dorgon's demise, Geng Zhongming could be the prince of Dashun County.

"But in my opinion, wealth and honor are in danger, and a huge opportunity is placed in front of you. The prince should take a step further, and directly lead his troops to break through Beijing and be the Prince of Dashun!"
