Chapter 772 The world is not as good as King Lu Chuang

It is a big deal that Sun Kewang surrenders, because this General Pingdong is in charge of whether General Anxi can surrender too.

Therefore, Lu Si attaches great importance to it and makes an order to summon ministers to discuss the matter that he can surrender.

When civil and military officials heard that they could surrender to Dashun at Huamachi, they were all excited and congratulated the governor.

However, on the issue of how to resettle Sun Kewang, the civil and military officials of the Dashun regime had two different opinions.

First of all, everyone in civil and military affairs thought that Sun Kewang should be treated preferentially, but they each had their own opinions on how to treat preferentially.

Liu Tichun, Jia Hanfu and others advocated treating Sun Kewang with Ai Nengqi and Liu Wenxiu with the same treatment, and they were appointed as marquis. However, whether he could be a marquis depends on whether he could help Dashun persuade surrender to Li Dingguo. If he could not, he would not even give him a marquis and take him to Beijing and take him to take care of his wife, and he would be treated as a commoner in the future.

The reason is that Sun Kewang is stubborn and repeatedly resists Dashun's pleading, which leads to delaying the war and the death of officers and soldiers. In the end, Dashun was at the end of his life and was desperate and only surrendered. Therefore, if Sun Kewang cannot persuade Li Dingguo to come to the country to redeem his sins, Dashun will still give him a high position, and it is extremely unfair for the soldiers who died in Dashun.

"I remember that the former governor ordered the troops of all provinces to be given rewards and preferential treatment for all officers and soldiers of the Xichang who came to surrender after the war. Anyone who could not fight after the war would surrender again will not be forgiven. How can Sun Ke hope to make an exception now? According to me, since the governor has an imperial edict, he should act according to the imperial edict and should not go back on his word!"

The one who opposes the preferential treatment of Sun Kewang is the new Zhenzheng of the Second Army and the former general of the Western Route Army, Ma Tengyun.

The original structure of the Second Army was Xin Sizhong's 11th Town and Zhao Zhongyi's 12th Town. These two towns were also the main force composed of the cavalry of the West Route Army and the elite troops entering Shaanxi.

Only now, under the leadership of Xin Sizhong, the 11th Town has been expanded into the tentative first army, and under the leadership of Zhao Zhongyi, the 12th Town has also been expanded into the tentative second army. Therefore, the second army admiral Liu Tichun was able to command less than 4,000 troops.

To this end, the camp transferred the former general of Tongguan, Hu Shoulong, and the deputy general of Shenmu, Wang Yongqiang, to supplement the Second Army. He also added more than 20,000 surrendered soldiers from the Western Army captured in martial arts. Although the combat effectiveness was significantly reduced compared with the previous Second Army, the established towns it owned became three.

The three generals are Ma Tengyun, Ren Jirong and Hu Shoulong.

After the new organization of the Second Army, it has been in the camp, and to the outside world, it looks like an imperial guard.

The three generals, except Hu Shoulong, were born as Taoist, Ma Tengyun and Ren Jirong were both veterans of the Shun Army. Ma Tengyun was good at attacking and Ren Jirong was good at guarding. The two generals were also heroes who defeated Sun Chuanting back then.

Ma Tengyun brought up the order to supervise the state and explained the matter. Moreover, the generals considered the current actual situation, but most of them did not agree to preferential treatment of Sun Kewang, especially to be granted the title of marquis.

"I hope that even though I defeated the general, I still serve as two armies in the northwest."

Gong Yu, Secretary of the Li Government, Secretary of the Li Government, Song Qijiao and others had many remnants of the Western Army in the northwest. From a political perspective and long-term stability in the northwest, they believed that Sun Kewang must be treated preferentially, and that Sun Kewang should not be allowed to live under the two marquises of Ainengqi and Liu Wenxiu.

There are three reasons.

The first is that Sun Kewang's prestige in the Western Camp is higher than the other three generals. Now he is surrendering and rashly putting him under the title of marquis Ainengqi and Liu Wenxiu, which will inevitably make Sun Kewang feel resentful and not be able to appease Sun.

Second, whether Li Dingguo can surrender to the whole country is expected to be full of all. If he is unwilling to persuade Dingguo because of Dashun's cold reception, the two sides will inevitably fight and increase casualties.

The third and most important point is that Sun Kewang is the heir of Zhang Xianzhong's actual prince. Since Dashun Daxi and the governor have repeatedly ordered the world to treat civil and military officials in the Xiying well, how could Sun Kewang, the number one in the Xiying, be treated at will?

"Hundreds of thousands of Western troops surrendered, and people's hearts are different. If I cannot treat Kaohsiung well, I may have hidden dangers. Therefore, I think I should be granted Kaohsiung's title of Kaohsiung to reflect the greatness of the Dashun Dynasty to the Xiying, which will be of great benefit to our Dashun governing the northwest."

Gong Yan directly proposed to be the king.

After hearing this, Ma Tengyun was immediately dissatisfied and sneered: "The old man is confused. If his grandson Kewang can be the king, wouldn't my Dashun King be like a cabbage!"

Liu Tichun, Jia Hanfu, Ren Jirong and others could not accept Sun Kewang's title of king, and it was in an uproar. They could not blame them for being dissatisfied. It was really unacceptable that a defeated general could be the prince of Dashun.

It should be noted that Dashun now has no titles besides the country! (These people still don’t know that when the country was in Beijing, they ordered Zuo Fu Gu Junen to draft the title of Shun, to designate Li Guo as the Prince of Jin, and Lu Guangyuan as the Prince of Chu. They also designated the four great dukes and the twelve marquis first.)

The civil and military confronted the opponents fiercely.

Lu Si's opinion was that Sun Kewang should be given preferential treatment, but it was not appropriate to give him a title of king. Previously, he ordered people to persuade Sun Kewang to give him the treatment of a prince. However, at that time, Sun Kewang held heavy troops and was incomparable to his current wife's official position.

But it is not good to place Sun Kewang under Ainengqi and Liu Wenxiu. After all, Sun Kewang's influence in the Western Army is there. Moreover, when Zhang Xianzhong was alive, he said that as long as he, Lu Wenzong, would not hesitate to follow the title of Prince. Now it is his turn to gain power, he must give the heirs of the Eight Kings a reasonable treatment.

After thinking about it, Lu Si decided to teach Sun Kewang Han Gong.

Han was a small country in the Spring and Autumn Period, which was different from the meaning of Qi, Chu, Qin and Zhao. It made Sun Kewang the Duke of Han, one was to show his favorable treatment and importance, and the other was to express the meaning of restraint from the Duke of this country, which was a perfect match for both worlds.

If it weren't for the fact that it had been decided by the Duke of the United States, Germany, France and Britain, and it would be a bit of a bad thing to be named as a Duke of the West, Lu Si might have really given Spain to Sun Kewang.

The state supervising state set the tone of the Duke, saying that it was asking civil and military officials, who agreed and who opposed it?

But who would continue to oppose it if his neck was hard?

If the two are in conflict, if you are too enthroned and the title of marquis is not suitable, you will be the Duke of the State.

In order to demonstrate that the rewards were not overdue and to speed up the "peaceful" resolution of the Yanchang Fort, Lu Si, at the suggestion of the Secretary of the Military Government, ordered Gong Yong, the Secretary of the Li Government to represent himself, and on behalf of the Dashun court, to go to Huamachi to enthrone Sun Kewang as the Duke of Han.

At the same time, the officers and soldiers below the Governor of Ningxia, Zhao Zhongyi, were ordered to be rewarded with merits and honors in the camp, and the team was sent to the capital to reward them.

The civil and military discussed in private that the state supervising state had promised to capture and kill Sun Kewang, and those who were all named Princes of Li Ding were now defeated and forced to surrender by Zhao Zhongyi, the governor of Ningxia, because he was afraid that the Huaiyang boy, a county prince, would not be able to escape.

The fourth army admiral Zuo Pan'an, who was confronting Li Dingguo in Yanchang Fort, and the ninth army admiral Li Chengdong was also extremely jealous of the prince Zhifeng, and he wanted to immediately raise troops to attack Yanchang Fort to capture Li Dingguo, but he went to the camp and refused to advance, so he had to be depressed in the camp.

Lu Siyuan was planning to ask Gong Yan to bring Sun Kewang directly to the camp, and immediately asked Sun Kewang to go to Yanchang Fort to persuade Li Dingguo to surrender. However, Song Qijiao, the Minister of the Government, suggested that Sun Kewang go to Guyuan first, so that the military and civilians in the northwest knew that he would surrender, so that the "political offensive" could be achieved.

Li Dingguo was trapped in the Yanchang Fort and could not fly out. Lu Si agreed to Song Qijiao's suggestion, asking Gong Yan to take Sun Kewang to Guyuan to "youxiajie" first, and ordered Duke Xingguo Li Guo, Governor of Ganzhou, Meng Qiaofang, Governor of Ganzhou, Zhang Guozhu, Governor of Shaanxi, and Wang Zhaoling, Governor of Ganzhou, to meet Sun Kewang in Guyuan or Pingliang, to show his favorable heart."

Gong Yan and his team rushed to the Huama Pond in a few days.

Sun Kewang, who had been hospitalized by Ningxia Governor Zhao Zhongyi and others for several days in the city, heard that the special envoy of Dashun's regent arrived, was nervous and did not know what fate was.

After Dashun was granted the title of the Duke of the Kingdom and sent the Minister of the Li Government to enthrone it. Sun Kewang's doubts suddenly faded and felt great. He immediately handed the memorial to the camp "I wish to pacify my brother to establish the country to become a grand event of unification."

There is a sentence in the memorial: "The soldiers and soldiers in the Western Camp are willing to serve His Majesty the Dashun Supervisor, and all the local people will enter the Dashun territory."

The memorial was urgently handed over to the camp. After seeing it, Lu Si couldn't help but smile and said to the left and right: "The Master of Dongfu has no longer ambitions."

Zhenrong Station.

After receiving the order, Gansu Governor Wang Zhaoling and Shaanxi Governor Zhang Guozhu came here one after another. After some deployment, Gongsun Kewang, South Korea, accompanied by Gongsun Kewang, the Minister of the Li Government, came here with him.

Originally, the 11th Army admiral Ai Nengqi, the former general of Dingbei of Xiying, also received an order to ask his synonymous brother Sun Kewang for a while, but Ai Nengqi did not follow the order to go to Zhenrong, but instead wrote to the camp that he was infected with the cold and was inconvenient to move.

Lu Si received Ai Nengqi's reply, knowing that Ai Nengqi might be trying to avoid suspicion or to meet with his brother-in-law, so he made an excuse to refuse to go to Zhenrong. He did not point it out and wrote back that Ai Nengqi was so happy to "rehabilitate" and ordered three hundred-year-old ginseng seized from Liaodong to send to Ai Nengqi.

The former prime minister of Daxi, today's governor Wang and Han Gong were also dealing with each other with face. The two of them did not smile at one hundred steps, each with their own spring and autumn, and it was meaningless to see each other in their hearts.

However, the governor of Shaanxi Zhang Guozhu was very enthusiastic about the Korean Duke and asked Sun Kewang to offer advice for military affairs after the banquet.

Without further ado, Sun Kewang made suggestions based on the current remnants of the Western Army in various northwest areas, and also conducted work on the map with Zhang Guozhu and others.

"I hope that the drawings are extremely particular, and there are mountains that are gathered together, and I know them well."

In the secret memorial to the governor, Zhang Guozhu sincerely admired Sun Kewang's military talent and sighed: "Kewang is really a good general."

In order to live up to the Korean Duke who was given to Dashun, Sun Kewang suggested that his generals Yang Wannian, Wang Hui and others be controlled by Zhang Guozhu, and more than a dozen others including Wu Fengsheng were left to Gansu Governor Wang Zhaoling for "using them from time to time before the army."

In just a few days in Guyuan, Sun Kewang had good suggestions and suggestions from the government, army and people. When he set out to the camp, Sun Kewang heard that Dashun wanted to fight with his brother Liu Wenxiu's 12th Army, and hurriedly submitted a memorial: "The day when a large army enters Sichuan, I will serve memorials. The situation in Sichuan is familiar with me. I may go with the generals to fight, or follow the ministers to recruit and pacify various areas, so that I can submit my original intention to the country."

Hearing that Sun Kewang had the intention of entering Sichuan to serve Dashun, Meng Qiaofang, the governor of Gansu and Shaanxi, made a secret report, saying that Liu Wenxiu, the admiral of the 12th Army, was still in love with the old west, so he must not let Sun Kewang join forces with Liu Wenxiu and take control of military power again. He should be placed in the confidant of the country and should not be allowed to escape.

After reading Meng Qiaofang's secret memorial, Lu Si stayed at the end of the day and did not post it, so he asked someone to urge Ke Wang to arrive at the camp as soon as possible.

Sun Kewang's surrender did make the situation in the northwest. The remnants of small Western troops in Gansu, Ningxia and Shaanxi provinces. After hearing that the East Mansion surrendered Dashun, they gave up resistance and surrendered to the Shun army occupy the place. There were as many as dozens of them, nearly 20,000.

The pacification of the remnants of the Western Army not only allowed no more military chaos in the northwest provinces, but also provided a stable rear for Qinghai.

On the 26th day of the 12th lunar month, Henan Governor Yuan Zongdi reported that he accidentally discovered Sun Kewang's younger brother Sun Kesheng in the army.

Sun Kesheng was separated from his brother Kewang in his early years, and the two brothers were separated from each other. Sun Kesheng had been wandering several times, first mingling with Dong Xueli's team of the Ming army. Later, Dong Xueli was defeated by the Qing army, and Sun Kesheng became a member of the Qing army's green camp. Later, the Qing court was destroyed, and Sun Kesheng, the green camp soldier, was reorganized into the Shun army and is now a team official in the army.

After knowing that Sun Kewang's younger brother was actually under his command, Yuan Zongdi urgently reported the matter to the camp.

"It's a strange fate that my brothers have been separated for nearly twenty years, but now they can reunite."

Lu Si was also moved and ordered Yuan Zongdi to send Sun Kesheng to the camp quickly and sent someone to inform Kewang. Sun Kewang, who was on the way, heard that his younger brother Sun Kesheng was still alive, could not help but feel surprised and wrote a letter to thank him, saying, "Today, brothers meet again, and they are all great kindness in the country."

What I mean is that if the state of no supervision pacifies the north, how could there be a day when his brothers meet again?

However, a small incident happened later. Sun Kewang lost all the gold and silver he had obtained during his surrender, and there was no penny on him. Some of his subordinates who followed him wanted to return home to farm, but he wanted to give it to him, but he could not get a copper coin in his pocket.

In desperation, he wrote a letter to the camp, asking the supervisor to borrow some money from his subordinates.

This was a small matter, but Meng Qiaofang, the governor of Ganzhou and Shaanxi, was always guarding against Sun Kewang and despised him very much. When he learned that this matter was written, he wrote: "I hope to lead troops to surrender to my Yan Xing. After repeated persuasion, he refused to surrender and resigned from his relatives and divorced him. He led hundreds of tired soldiers to return home in despair. What kind of achievements and virtues do you have to be granted the title of Duke of the country?

I have seen that his memorials are often shocked. When I come to the new generation, I ask to join the army to enter Sichuan and conspire with military power. If I can hope that the country is sufficient to be able to suppress the rebellion, why would there be a major defeat in the previous period? Today's surrender? It can be said that I am not self-conceived and ignorant. I heard that the emperor is mu Mu and bowed down, how could he borrow money from others? How could anyone borrow money from the emperor's affairs?"

In short, Meng Qiaofang tried her best to take advantage of the situation, wishing that the state would be able to regain Sun Kewang's title of Korean Duke and execute him in anger.

This made Lu Si a little amused and cry. He didn't know why Meng Qiaofang hated Sun Kewang. He laughed at his memorial and kept it unpublished.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, accompanied by Shangshu Gong Yong, Sun Kewang and his party finally arrived at the Jianguo Camp.

Lu Si was extremely happy when he heard the news and ordered Liu Tichun to go out of the city to greet him. Tens of thousands of soldiers lined up to greet him. The scene was very grand.

Sun Kewang burst into tears and his body trembled slightly.

On that day, Lu Si personally met Sun Kewang, gave him a banquet, gave him another 10,000 taels of silver, and gave him a python robe, court clothes, satin, etc. For a moment, the defeated general Sun Kewang became a popular figure in the Dashun Jianguo Camp.

In addition to Meng Qiaofang and others, Dashun also admires Sun Kewang for the preferential treatment of the state, and has a long-term vision.
