.Master, do we really want to join forces with Wu Sangui to attack the Ming Dynasty?” He said hesitantly.

When they learned that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty had personally launched an expedition, Li Zicheng, Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance and others decided the strategy of Dashun Army to watch the tiger fight. After the two sides decided to win, they immediately joined forces with the weak side to compete with the victorious side to protect themselves. Everyone in the sitting area knew that Li Zicheng decided this strategy, and no one opposed it at that time.

Although the Ming army took Shandong like a broken embroidery and fought all the way to Tianjin, everyone still looked at the Qing army. The bloody battle of a piece of stone plus the pursuit of the Qing army all the way, everyone was as anxious as a dog who was strayed all day long. The strength of the official army was still in the power of the Dashun army sweeping the world in the 17th year of Chongzhen. They had never fought with the official army in recent years. When compared with the two, they always felt that the achievements of the official army and the Qing army were mourning, so it was naturally not surprising to draw opposite conclusions.

Everyone did not resist much when they joined forces with the Ming Dynasty to resist the Qing army. After all, the Ming Dynasty was orthodox. They were all people of the Ming Dynasty. Even after the rebellion, many people were recruited. Moreover, this time it was not recruited, but just united with each other. However, they were asked to join forces with the Qing army and cooperated with Wu Sangui, who was hated to the core. Although they knew they were forced to do so, they always felt uncomfortable.

There was silence in the hall, with only the rapid breathing of everyone. Everyone was thinking about this question. When they thought of joining forces with Wu Sangui, everyone felt as uncomfortable as if they had eaten a fly. They were good to be rebels, but Wu Sangui was a traitor, which almost made the entire Shenzhou become a traitor in the hands of a foreign race. If they joined forces with Wu Sangui, what was their actions different from Wu Sangui?

"No need to think about it. This is a strategy that the emperor has already set. If not, will my Dashunchao have to wait for the Ming army to attack? If we don't want to be wiped out by the Ming Dynasty as a traitor, there is only this way." Gao Yigong said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Marquis, even if we are willing to join forces with Wu Sangui to fight the Ming Dynasty, what if Wu Sangui disagrees?" Liu Xiyao asked.

Dashun regarded Wu Sangui as an irreconcilable enemy, and Wu Sangui also regarded Dashun as an enemy. A total of 38 people in the Wu family died at the hands of the Dashun army. The head of Wu Sangui's father Wu Xiang was even ordered by Li Zicheng to hang it on a high rod to show publicly. After the Dashun army withdrew from the capital, it has always been the most fierce pursuit place of Wu Sangui's team.

They were thieves, but Wu Sangui was not. He led Qing troops into the pass under the banner of avenging Emperor Chongzhen. When the Hongguang Dynasty was at its beginning, the Hongguang Dynasty also planned to grant Wu Sangui the Duke of the Kingdom. If Wu Sangui turned to the Ming Dynasty, their alliance with Wu Sangui would become a hot head-shaving burden.

Gao Yigong couldn't help but be stunned. If it were Manchu on the opposite side, Manchu would definitely be unsuccessful, but it was really hard to say that Wu Sangui was the one who had lost. People used to think that the Ming Dynasty would be defeated, so-called one step was wrong, every step was wrong. Gao Yigong walked around constantly, and finally said helplessly: "No matter whether Wu Sangui is willing to join forces or not, we must complete the tasks assigned by the emperor. This marquis will first send someone to test with Wu Sangui. As for the attack on the Ming army, it is impossible to defeat, and the generals will obey the orders."

Liu Xiyao, Dang Shousu, Gu Kecheng, Ren Weirong and others quickly straightened their chests. Gao Yigong said slowly: "From now on guard, the whole city will be on guard. After you go back, you will restrain the army and be ready to start the transfer at any time."

"Follow the order."

"It's going to fight." Xie Dabao sighed. Not long after he brought two emergency military knights to the city, the troops in the city had begun to be frequently mobilized. Some soldiers who had sneaked out of the military camp were also recalled. A tense atmosphere was filled with the entire Pingyang Mansion. Not only did Xie Dabao feel it, but also ordinary people felt it.

Taiyuan, Pingxi Palace, Wu Sangui also held a military newspaper in his hand. He looked at it carefully word by word, as if he was afraid of missing a word. After a long time, he put down the military newspaper and shouted outside the door: "Come here. Call the uncle and the third master."

"Yes." Two personal soldiers responded.

Wu Sangui is the second in the family. The old man and the third master naturally refer to his brother Wu Sanfeng and his younger brother Wu Sanfu. As the saying goes, brothers in war. After Wu Sangui became the general, Wu Sanfeng and Wu Sanfu served as deputy generals beside Wu Sangui. Therefore, they escaped the disaster when Li Zicheng entered the capital.

Shortly after the personal soldiers went down, Wu Sanfeng and Wu Sanfu had already pushed the door in. Seeing Wu Sangui frowned, both of them were shocked. Wu Sanfu asked quickly: "Second brother, what happened?"

General Wu Sangui pushed the newspaper to the two of them: "You can take a look, too."

The newspaper Wu Sanfeng and General Wu Sanfu finished reading soon, but they were not as surprised as the generals of the Dashun Army. Their faces only changed slightly, as if they had already expected Manren's defeat.

"Second brother, Manchus are defeated so miserably, where should the Wu family go? Have you thought about it long ago?" Wu Sanfu asked.

Wu Sangui smiled bitterly on his face, and a scar appeared on his nose. When he was a teenager, he was ambushed by his father, and the entire army was surrounded. The army behind him, including his uncle Zu Dashou, did not dare to send troops to rescue him. Wu Sangui was strong in his youth.

Fifty servants rushed into the encirclement of the crowd and raised their father and hundreds of them. His face was cut by the crowd, leaving a faint scar on the bridge of his nose, and as long as he was emotionally unstable, it would appear.

In that battle, Wu Sangui became famous in one fell swoop, laying the foundation for becoming the general of Shanhaiguan.

"Brother, third brother, I'm going to tell you, I just don't know where to go, so I want to come to discuss with you."

"Second brother, what's the problem? We were originally Ming ministers, so we would like to surrender to the Ming Dynasty." Wu Sanfeng blurted out. Compared to his second brother's talent in martial arts and literary style, Wu Sanfeng, the eldest son of the Wu family, was a bit pale. He was simply not good at martial arts. He was able to be a deputy general in the army because of his relationship with Wu Sangui.

"Brother, it's not that simple. I brought Manchu into the Pass. I was indeed to avenge the late emperor. I never thought that Doer was cunning. My army was threatened by the Qing army and became the front drive of the Qing army. I made a big mistake. With the character of the current Ming emperor, if I go to surrender now, I might be able to save my life, but I will definitely be idle and I can be humiliated by any small official in the future."

Speaking of which, Wu Sangui still couldn't bear to bear his power. In addition, Wu Sangui still felt a little fear in his heart. In order to win the trust of the Qing army, he killed Zhu Cijiong, the third son of Chongzhen, which made the Ming Dynasty not only lose the emperor, but also the orthodox heir. Although if he did not kill Zhu Cijiong but released him, the current Emperor of Ming might be Zhu Cijiong. He was equivalent to clearing the obstacles to the throne for Hongguang. However, if someone started this matter and said that he had harmed the blood of the late emperor, it would be impossible for the current Emperor to protect him.

Wu Sanfeng and Wu Sanfu also frowned. Wu Sangui was appointed as the queen, and their status also rose. If he lost his power in the Ming Dynasty, it would be more sad than killing them. But what if he didn't surrender to the Ming Dynasty? The Qing army has been defeated. Will he deal with them after the Ming Dynasty has freed up?

This seems like a game of dead chess. If they do not cast the Ming Dynasty, they will be destroyed by the Ming Dynasty. If they cast the Ming Dynasty, they will be worried about losing power, and will be bullied in the future, or even worry that their lives will be lost.

"Second brother, although the Ming army has achieved victory, the Manchus have not been damaged at all. Perhaps there is still a turning point. Once the Ming army is defeated, the situation in the world may become chaotic again. Now the Qing court has no time to take care of itself, and the second brother is able to get rid of it. At the time of the game, the second brother holds tens of thousands of troops and occupies a province. It is not impossible to truly break the ground and be crowned king." Wu Sanfu said.

Wu Sangui's eyes lit up, and Wu Sanfu's dialect provided him with another idea. He knew Dorgon's character. Dorgon was not a person who gave up easily. He still had 70,000 to 80,000 Manchu and Mongolian main force in his hand, so he must have hidden it and prepared to give the Ming Dynasty a life-threatening blow.

"No, I can't get rid of Manren now." Wu Sangui shook his head. Not only can't get rid of Manren, but he also helped Manren. He tried to defeat the Ming army once, making the world even more chaotic. Only then can he be mixed with water and shape fish. Even Li Chuang almost got what he did, he didn't believe that he was not even as good as Li Chuang.

"Call Wu Sangui out to see me." A noisy sound came from outside. Wu Sanfeng and Wu Sanfu looked at Wu Sangui in a little astonishment. Who dared to shout (second brother, second brother) in the palace. However, Wu Sangui suddenly heard the accent of the person, and his face flashed with anger: "Let's go, let's welcome Prince Ying first.

”

The person who came was Prince Ying Ajige. Although Wu Sangui was named King of Pingxi, he was always under the jurisdiction of Ajige. When Wu Sangui came out of the study, the anger on his face had disappeared and he changed into a smile: "See Prince Ying!"

Wu Sangui and Ajige are both princes, but they just bowed slightly, but Wu Sanfeng and Wu Sanfu had to kneel down and kowtow.

"You two are free from gifts." Ajige raised his hand. Although he was talking to Wu Sanfeng and Wu Sanfu, his eyes were staring at Wu Sangui: "King Pingxi, I believe you must have known the news of the Battle of Tianjin. My Qing Dynasty will be defeated for the time being. I don't know what King Pingxi has to do. Do you want to return to the Ming Dynasty?"

Ajige was surrounded by more than ten Goshhas. Hearing this, he pressed the hilt of his sword and glared at Wu Sangui with his eyes. Wu Sangui was quite disdainful of Ajige. At best, this man was a reckless man. If he had not been concerned about the strength of the man, how could he be controlled by him? Now Ajige is trying to subdue him with these more than ten Goshhas. If he had not made other plans, he could immediately pile Ajige and his Goshha into meat sauce with an order.

"Prince Ying was joking. Although I was once a Ming minister, I have always been loyal to the Qing Dynasty since I joined the Qing Dynasty. Why should Prince Ying doubt it?"
