Please ask me to be the emperor

"General, the Daling River is ahead!" Zu Dashou, who was over fifty years old, pointed to the front and said.

"Daling River? I think there seemed to be a city wall here before?" Zhang Sanbai raised his eyes and saw a ruined wall on the river bank, and he couldn't help but said strangely.

"Then... that is Daling River City. It was built under the command of the former Ming Governor and led by General Mo." Zu Dashou explained with a bit of embarrassment after hearing this.

"Later, the Ming army was defeated and the city was destroyed by the Tatars."

It turns out that what Zu Dashou said was a war that broke out in the fourth year of Chongzhen.

The reason was that in order to protect Jinzhou and build a defense line along the Daling River, Sun Chengzong and others specially selected a site on the Daling River thirty miles east of Jinzhou to build a castle, which was called "Daling River City".

However, after Hou Jin received the news, on the one hand, he mobilized Manchu and Mongolian elites to cut off the passage between Jinzhou and Dalinghe City from the direction of Yizhou. On the other hand, Hong Tai led the main force southward from Guangning to besiege Dalinghe City.

The Ming court sent reinforcements several times for this purpose, but they were all defeated by Hou Jin.

As a result, the city ran out of food, and people began to eat people.

Zu Dashou and other generals wanted to surrender, but He Kegang refused, so he "ordered the two men to take them out of the city and kill them."

This is a dark history of Zu Dashou, so it is embarrassing and difficult to describe.

Zhang Sanbai also heard something about this, so he stopped asking and comforted him: "Victory and defeat are common matters for military officers. Yesterday he killed you, how could you know that you can't kill him today?"

Zu Dashou saw that Zhang Sanbai was not like a young boy and was sarcastic towards him. He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and then reminded him: "General, when it comes to this, I am worried about something."

"Guangning is important, but if it cannot be conquered for a long time, the Tatars may start from Yizhou and threaten Jinzhou."

Although Zu Dashou said it euphemistically, his meaning was actually very simple.

The current situation on the Liaodong front line is that Jinzhou, which is held by the rebel army, is fighting against Yizhou and Guangning, which are the horns of each other after Jin Dynasty.

When the rebels want to launch an attack, whether you attack Yizhou or Guangning, you will face the danger of Hou Jin "evading the real and attacking the weak" and raiding Jinzhou.

It's like you only have one fist to hit someone, but your opponent has two fists, so he is very passive.

"I'm not afraid that he will come out, I'm afraid that he won't come out!" Unexpectedly, Zhang Sanbai laughed when he heard this, and said confidently.

It turned out that during this battle, Zhang Sanbai strongly asked Zu Dashou to lead the Liaodong battle reinforcements with ten thousand people to accompany the army, while Bai Guangen was left to garrison Jinzhou.

However, when reinforcements from the direction of Yizhou came to attack, Bai Guangen held firm.

Unlike the Ming army, which suffered repeated defeats in field battles, the rebels had many troops and strict military discipline.

Whenever Hou Jin left the city, the rebellion would take advantage of him.

The city is still the same city, the terrain is still the same, the people are different, and the offensive and defensive forces are different!

Unexpectedly, Zu Dashou didn't know that Zhang Sanbai was thinking so much that he kept sneering in his heart when he heard this.

He thought to himself: "He is indeed a young boy. He is too young and does not know how powerful the Tatars are. Only when he suffers a loss will he know what 'ginger is spicy when he is old'!"

But Zu Dashou didn't know that Zhang Sanbai also shook his head in his heart at this time, and thought to himself: "Zu Dashou has such a great reputation, but unexpectedly he is sluggish, and he is repetitive, and he is not a good minister. When I take Guangning, Just advise His Highness to let him go home and retire!"

One hundred and forty miles from Jinzhou to Guangning, the rebel army was unstoppable, and it only took three days to reach the city of Guangning.

"Is this Guangning?" Zhang Sanbai looked at the city in front of him in surprise and couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, this is Guangning City. There are two old and new cities. The total city is seventeen miles away!" Zu Dashou glanced at the majestic city in front of him with complicated eyes and nodded.

The city is seventeen miles away. Although it is not as prosperous and prosperous as the capital and Taiyuan City in the mainland, it is an unexpectedly powerful city in such a frontier place.

"This city was originally the headquarters of the Liaodong General Army, specially designed to monitor and suppress the Mongols and Jurchens." Zu Dashou said with emotion.

"As a result, in the battle of Guangning, the Ming army was defeated, and the city of Guangning was abandoned without a fight, which is how we are today."

"Oh?" Zhang Sanbai was stunned when he heard this. He never expected that the battle of Guangning was not a city defense battle.

Before he could ask more questions, he suddenly heard the sound of a cannon, and then the gate of Guangning City opened, and a group of men and horses suddenly came out.

"How dare he?" Zhang Sanbai was almost angry.

I came with an army of 40,000 people, but you dared to go to war with more than a thousand people. Who are you looking down on?

Deputy Commander Yang Zhuguo had fought against both Yijun and Houjin before, so he naturally knew what both sides were thinking.

He couldn't help but laugh and said: "These Tatars are the most arrogant, and they say I'm waiting for those weak chickens from the Ming army."

As soon as Yang Zhuguo said these words, the faces of Zu Dashou, Jiang Xiang, Li Fuming and Huang Degong turned dark.

"General, please take the lead in defeating this beast to show off the power of our army!" Zu Dashou couldn't help but volunteered.

Zu Dashou naturally knew what Yang Zhuguo meant.

However, the situation is stronger than the person. Now that he has taken refuge in the "Submissive Thief", he naturally needs to show his value to the "Submissive Thief".

This battle was fought against Houjin, but in fact it was against Liaodong generals.

The Liaodong generals were not loyal enough to the imperial court, and everyone knew this.

However, it is unknown whether Liaodong's goalkeeper can beat him and how much he can beat him.

If Liaodong generals can fight and dare to fight, Zhang Shun may not be able to tolerate them.

If the generals of Liaodong are "good and fun-loving", then for the rebels with strong troops and horses, what awaits them will definitely not be a good result.

Zu Dashou knew this very well, so when Yang Zhuguo made a plan to provoke the general, he had to eat it or not.

"King Shun" has already shown his "sincerity" to his troops through food, salary and dispatch, so now it is time for the Liaodong generals to show their "sincerity".

"This is not good, okay. The old general is nearly sixty years old, how can he get into the formation? If you are serious, why not send one or two of your descendants and nephews to go, and the old general can accompany me to watch the formation!" Zhang Sanbaimian Lu looked hesitant and suggested.

Ma Maipi! Zu Dashou almost yelled when he heard this. Who said he would go into battle in person?

Originally, before this expedition, he had decided that his nephew Wu Sangui, who was known as "the bravest of the three armies and the filial piety of the nine countries", would attack.

However, he was blocked by Zhang Sanbai, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "The general is joking. Although Lian Po is old, he can resist the Qin soldiers; although Huang Zhong is old, he can kill Xiahou, why can't I do it!"

"General uncle, you can't kill a chicken with a sledgehammer. It's better to let the young general show his face in this battle!" Wu Sangui was shocked when he heard this and quickly volunteered.

"Go down, you have no right to speak here!" Zu Dashou quickly made a face when he saw this and shouted loudly.

Their ancestral family has now reached the extreme level of wealth and wealth, and he fully understands the truth that things must turn into reverse when things go to extremes.

Therefore, from a long time ago, he has been looking for a suitable candidate to replace him.

It so happened that his nephew, Wu Sangui, the son of Wu Xiang, was both wise and brave, and was suitable to succeed him and become the new representative of Liaodong generals.

If King Shun's trusted general Zhang Sanbai could see the clues at this time, it would probably ruin the plans of the Zu and Wu families.

When Wu Sangui heard this, he couldn't help but retreat angrily. Zu Dashou then bowed his hands to Zhang Sanbai and said, "Then please, general, wait for a moment while I defeat the enemy!"

"Okay, then Zhang will just wait for the good news from the old general!" Zhang Sanbai returned the salute and looked at him deeply.

It's a mule or a horse, pull it out and run around.

If you walk well, you will be taken out to work; if you walk poorly, you will be killed and eaten for meat!
