Chapter 175: Persuading Wu Sangui to Surrender (Part 2)
This was the second time Shang Yi wrote to Wu Sangui. The last time was the second South Expedition of the Qing Army. At that time, the Qing army had just occupied Nanjing to prepare to transfer Wu Sangui to fight with Shang Yi, but Shang Yi's letter gave me a letter given.
Wu Sangui changed the idea that Wu Sangui later introduced troops into Sichuan and separated one side. He was addicted to the Emperor Emperor for several years. A few years ago, Wu Sangui recalled it and praised himself for his own time.
And now look back, it turns out that Shang Yi is the biggest beneficiary, and people are almost unified. And they also received the second letter from Shang Yi.
Wu Sangui has repeatedly read Shang Yi's letter three times, and almost all can be memorized. Now the forces of all parties in the preparation of the Chinese Army, the official position, and the official level are very clear, so Wu Sangui can also make it white.
What are the conditions for Shang Yi to open? Conversion to the Lao or Qing Dynasty, is it a position?
According to his heart, Wu Sangui also thinks that such conditions are really good. After all, in terms of the strength of both parties, there can be such conditions.
When such superior conditions come, there are also three divisions to be prepared. It is good to have one division, so if it was a few days ago, Wu Sangui may promise.
But during this period, Wu Sangui learned that the Western Army in Yunnan returned to the Yongli court.
Depending on each other, everyone can still deal with the Chinese army together, and there are also news from Beijing to refuse to talk to the Chinese army.
There is a turn.
In fact, from his heart, Wu Sangui did not want to surrender. After all, he was the Emperor of the Turkish Emperor in Sichuan for more than three years. My site was the same as that of a chief soldier in Shanhaiguan.
For others, of course, there are some resistance. And Wu Sangui also knows that although the conditions for Shang Yi are indeed very good, after he really surrender, it is completely subject to others, depending on Shang Yi's conscience.
It is said that there are three divisions of the establishment, but how many people can have more than 30,000 people, and how much can they have, and they do not control the grain, weapons, and ammunition.
. Of course, from the standpoint of Shang Yi, since this condition is issued, it will not be retained without the ability to counter it.
Wu Sangui also knows that now he is tied together, the three parties of the Qing court are tied together, and you are not waiting to be the opponent of Nanjing Zheng FU, but if you use the power of the Yongli and the two parties of the Qing court, you can fight for themselves on the negotiating table.
Benefits should be possible.
Therefore, after a few days of thinking, Wu Sangui also returned a letter to Shang Yi, saying that he was willing to surrender Nanjing for the safety of the people in the Sichuan people and eliminate the difficulties of the swordsman.
On the basis of the official position, on the basis of the official level, he requires himself to be king, because the surrender of Nanjing must not have no jaw, and you have to seal the king in the Qing court. Of course, you can't be worse.
The teacher is not enough, asking for two brigades, and staying in Sichuan without moving, nor external adjustment; third, he surrendered to Nanjing, but the Chinese army cannot enter Sichuan.
Administrative officials enter the director of Sichuan and manage all kinds of affairs. They will cooperate with their own efforts. Sichuan military protection protection will be managed by the troops after self -adapted.
On the one hand, Wu Sangui bargain with Nanjing Zheng FU bargaining, fighting for more benefits, and also want to delay a little time, and see what movements are there in Yongli. Because of the previous news, I only heard that the people sent themselves. I haven't returned yet, and my letter is sent to Nanjing, and Shang Yi will reply to myself. Hit the puppet.
But beyond Wu Sangui's expectation, just seven days later, he received the reply from Shang Yi, and this time Shang Yi answered the three conditions proposed by Wu Sangui one by one. The first one, now Nanjing Zheng FU has not customized the title, so it is not so no position, so it is not possible Maybe Wu Sangui was immediately sealed as a king, and after formulating the title, then sealing it as appropriate. In the second, the army of Wu Sangui can only compile three divisions, and one more soldier is not possible. Regardless of the division in that military region, there is an obligation to send troops, transfer, and defense. Whether to station in Sichuan needs to listen to the division of the Huguang Military Area and must not violate it.
At the end of the letter, Shang Yi warned Wu Sangui with a very severe word, and the determination of the Nanjing political FU unified country will never shake. Sichuan is destined to recover. Instead, he hopes that he can peacefully solve the problem of Sichuan with Wu Sangui, so that the people in Sichuan have less suffering. Therefore, it is not easy for Wu Sangui to bargain and blame Wu Sangui to reply within a time limit.
After reading the letter, Wu Sangui couldn't help but get angry. After all, Wu Sangui's identity is different. He is a hegemon of one side. On the acres of Sichuan, he has been the Emperor Belt. In recent years His tone to talk to him is that the Qing court is also a guest, and Shang Yi is exactly a payment. It is not that I can't beat you, but I am too lazy to hit your tone. Of course, Wu Sangui can't accept it. Eat yourself, then you may wish to fight.
Although Wu Sangui also knows that his overall strength is not as good as the Chinese army, it is not impossible to fight. At this time, the Chinese Army has captured Puzhou Mansion, but it was taken advantage of the Sichuan Army in the southeast and northeast empty. The attack was succeeded. Now Wu Sangui has sent all the important ways to the Puzhou Mansion. According to the danger, although the Chinese army's firearms, if you want to break through these danger, you must pay the price of major casualties. When the Chinese Army could not attack in Sichuan for a long time, or when the casualties were serious, let's talk about the Qing court and the Yongli court, and they sent troops from north to south to pinch.
Of course, Wu Sangui did not dare to expect to defeat Nanjing Zheng FU in one fell swoop, or hurt Nanjing's vitality. After all, the foundation of Nanjing Zheng FU is still strong.
Therefore, Wu Sangui also ordered the generals to strengthen the defense in the area around Puzhou Government and strictly guarding the positions.
It was just that Wu Sangui did not expect that the Chinese army did not launch an offense from Lizhou Prefecture. Instead, it was closed from the stone teeth at the junction of the two provinces of Hunan, Hubei. Fuling River went westward all the way to Fuling. It was close to Fuzhou.
After receiving the rush of Wuzhou, Wu Sangui could not help but be surprised. I did not expect that the Chinese Army did not attack from the Dazhou Mansion, which was defended by the heavy soldiers.
This does not say that Wu Sangui's judgment is wrong, because now the Chinese army has basically occupied the dangerous area of Puzhou Mansion and the dangerous area of the border between Hubei Sichuan.
The three troops in the military region have more than 80,000 troops. In the army, there is the original Dashun Army, the remaining part of the loyal camp, and familiar with the roads of this area.
You can make progress in Chongqing, which is the place of using soldiers. Therefore, who is changed, he will arrange heavy soldiers on this line.
Although there are not many troops in the area around the junction of Hunan, Sichuan, the mountains in this area are steep, the roads are rugged, the Guanzhanglin, Luohe, and the traffic is extremely inconvenient.
It is impossible to carry at all, and it is difficult for logistics, so the Chinese army will never launch an attack from here. But Wu Sangui did not expect that the Chinese Army did not have the line from the Laosan Prefecture, but launched an offense from the weak defense in central Sichuan.
Now the defense layout of the Sichuan Army in the northeast of Sichuan is that Xia Guoxiang led 60,000 horses, stationed in Qu County, blocking the Chinese Army to advance west, and Wang Xu led 30,000 people to the north of the county to protect the wings of the Xia Guo phase;
Sixty -thousand people, stationed in Zhongzhou, interrupted the Yangtze River, and prevented the Chinese army from going along the river. On this line, a total of 150,000 troops were arranged.
Army can also be regarded as strict defense.
Fuzhou is located at the intersection of the Fuling River and the Yangtze River. It is only more than 200 miles from Chongqing to the west, and it is only 160 miles from Zhongzhou to the northeast. Therefore
Hu Guozhu in Zhongzhou was caught in a situation where the back was affected by the enemy. If the Chinese army captured Fuzhou, then even Chongqing was dangerous.
Chongqing is an important city in Chengdu after Chengdu. Chongqing is lost, and Sichuan is equivalent to half of it. Therefore, Chongqing will never have lost. Wu Sangui also urgently ordered the general Ma Bao and Guo Zhuangtu to receive 50,000 people.
Ye Xing rushed to Chongqing to stay, and at the same time ordered Hu Guozhu, who was stationed in Zhongzhou, immediately withdrew from the northwest to Yajiang County, and reached the dragon from Xia Guo, who was stationed in Qu County.
It has become a line of defense from Shunqing Mansion to Chongqing Government, from north to south.
The Guan Jian who completed this line of defense lies in Hu Guozhu's Ministry of Pillar. Can the Chinese Army be able to retreat to Dianjiang County. But how could the Chinese Army miss such fighters?
