The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 598
Qing army camp!

Xu Youzhong kept pacing in his big tent, the expression on his face gradually changed from hesitation to firmness.

He is from Lantian, Guanzhong!
If you just watched your hometown elders become the souls of Aobai's sword and become the food of the Qing army.

Is he still a person?
Although he is a traitor, a corrupt official, a scum and a scum, he is a moth in the army who drinks the blood of soldiers and eats empty pay.

But he knows that he must not do anything that cannibalize people!

Especially the food is still his hometown elders!
Therefore, he sent someone to Chang'an to contact Wu Sangui, wanting to fight anyway.

He would rather die on the battlefield than sit back and watch the tragedy happen!
He didn't want to ruin his reputation in his hometown and be accused by thousands of people in the future.

The rural concept of this era is very important!

It's definitely not the kind of folks in later generations who see fellow villagers and die without discussing it!

If Wu Sangui accepted Xu Youzhong's offer anyway, he would cooperate with Wu Sangui and deal a heavy blow to the Qing army.

If Wu Sangui didn't accept him anyway, he would lead his troops and run away, reminding his elders in his hometown that Oboi would kill people for food, and then go to Daming in the south.

Anyway, no matter what, he would not sit back and watch his hometown elders become the blood food of others.

If it can be stopped, of course it will be stopped!
Even if he can't stop it, he still has to do his best!

Worst of all, he had to make sure that he would not do anything to the elders in his hometown.

Just as Xu Youzhong was pacing, the soldiers he sent to look for Wu Sangui returned.

"General!"

The soldiers clasped their fists and saluted Xu Youzhong.

The eagerness on Xu Youzhong's face was almost overflowing, and he couldn't help asking.

"How? How are things going?"

"Has there been any response from King Pingxi?"

Although Wu Sangui has proclaimed himself emperor, Xu Youzhong still subconsciously called Wu Sangui the King of Pingxi.

The soldier clasped his fists and said.

"General, King Pingxi responded!"

"The old man can send troops out of the city to meet me anyway."

"However, we must act first to disrupt the Qing army's camp, so that the old man can see that we are really going to surrender anyway, not just playing with Oboi to lure him out of the city."

Although Wu Sangui was cautious and unwilling to go out to fight in the city, all the generals under his command were very angry because of being aggrieved by being trapped in Chang'an.

Under the impetus of the generals of the Guanning Army, Wu Sangui finally agreed to go out of the city to fight the Qing army in order to deal with the Qing army's affairs anyway.

However, at Wu Sangui's urging, Guan Ning's army unified their voices and demanded that Xu Youzhong take the lead.

Only when Guan Ningjun sees their sincerity and sees that they really want to fight anyway, will Guan Ningjun send troops.

Xu Youzhong hesitated for a while when he heard the words, but finally agreed.

He opened his mouth and ordered.

"Pass down the order, the whole army is ready for war!"

Xu Youzhong treats very few people around him, and he has a lot of prestige in front of his subordinates.

Therefore, even if it was a matter of rebellion, he just stood up and said hello, and his subordinates agreed one after another.

No objections were raised!

……

At noon that day, taking advantage of the opportunity for the army to gather for dinner, Xu Youzhong climbed onto a high platform and delivered a passionate speech.

"Brothers, we are all Guanzhong people!"

"They are all Guanzhong people who grew up drinking the water of the Wei River and eating the wheat grown on the loess land."

"The folks in this pass are all brothers and sisters connected by our blood, and they are all our parents and brothers."

"Now, that dog thief Aobai wants to use our brothers and sisters, our parents and brothers as two-legged sheep."

"We must kill our hometown elders to eat meat!"

"Tell me, brothers, will you agree?"

"Tell me, can the swords in your hands and the blood in your chest agree?!"

"..."

Xu Youzhong let out roars, and his passionate tone made the morale of the soldiers under his command peak.

Countless people roared loudly together!
"cannot!"

"cannot!"

"cannot!"

"..."

Xu Youzhong is from Lantian County in Guanzhong, and most of his generals, especially his personal soldiers, are his fellow countrymen!

Xu Youzhong couldn't accept that Oboi wanted to use his hometown elders as two-legged sheep for food, how could his brothers agree?
Since ancient times, the old Qin people have been tough and good at martial arts, daring to fight against heaven and earth.

Facing the bottomless oppression of the Qing court, how could they submit to it?

The soldiers and horses under Xu Youzhong's troops were all overwhelmed with emotion. They drew their knives out of their sheaths and shouted loudly to express their opposition.

After Xu Youzhong gave the order, he led his troops straight to Oboi's Chinese army.

"Boys, follow me to kill, and make a bright future for my old Qin people!"

"..."

With the defection of Xu Youzhong's troops, the Qing army camp fell into chaos in an instant.

Countless people scrambled to escape, and there was chaos everywhere, and some people with ulterior motives held torches and lit fires everywhere, accelerating the spread of chaos.

"Kill!"

"Kill the captives! Protect the elders in the hometown!"

"..."

……

Wu Sangui is wearing armor and a pocket on his head.

Standing on the top of the city, he kept his eyes fixed on the Qing army camp outside Chang'an city.

The big hand with blue veins that was tightly gripping the handle of the knife showed to everyone that he was not in a calm state of mind.

Beside him, the generals of the Guan Ning Army are basically dressed like this.

Clearly, they were prepared accordingly!

If Xu Youzhong's troops outside the city are anyway, they will send troops out of the city to support them, and give the Qing army a powerful look!
Seeing the continuous spread of chaos in the Qing army camp outside the city, Xu Youzhong's soldiers and horses were like sharks that suddenly appeared in a school of fish, and the places they passed were in chaos.

One by one Qing army camps were breached by Xu Youzhong's troops, a large number of Qing troops were directly killed, and the entire camp was filled with corpses.

But more of the Qing army turned into routs and were coerced into attacking other camps.

Wu Sangui, who is extremely experienced in war, can tell that Xu Youzhong's defection was definitely not just acting, he really defected to the Qing army.

The kind that can't be faked!
"Your Majesty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, order the troops to be dispatched!"

"If our army can seize this opportunity, the crisis in Guanzhong will be resolved!"

"..."

People around all offered suggestions one after another, hoping that Wu Sangui could seize the opportunity of the civil strife in the Qing army, make meritorious deeds in one fell swoop, and defeat the Qing army.

Wu Yingxiong also stood up and said.

"Father, please give the order. My son is willing to lead someone to fight forward!"

Because Wu Yingxiong had been a hostage in the capital for a long time, his status in the Guanning Army was far inferior to that of his younger brother.

If he wanted to win back the game, win the hearts of the generals of the Guanning Army, and plan for taking over Wu Sangui's position in the future, he could only speak with military merit.

All the generals of the Guan Ning Army are soldiers!
Soldiers, the most important military merit!
Seeing this scene, Wu Sangui finally nodded vigorously and said.

"Pass down the order, the whole army is ready for war!"

"Yi Ding suddenly rides in armor, and charges with me!"

"..."
