At the end of Ming Dynasty: I, Sun Kewang!Desperate comeback!

In this way, under the coordination of Sun Guozhu, the major forces in Guangdong relied on their own strength to push Shang Kexi back to the Guangzhou City area.

Unfortunately, matters in Yunnan were important. In order to ensure nothing went wrong, all the leading troops from the four towns in the front army were sent to Yunnan. Wang Shangli and Wang Ziqi, the two generals who could stand alone, also all went to Yunnan.

Otherwise, if a general is sent to Guangdong with two towns or even one strong army, he can launch a siege of Guangzhou and completely strangle the two vassals of Pingnan and Jingnan.

When the situation in Yunnan and Guangdong developed, Sun Guozhu was in a good situation.

Zhang Changgeng, the governor of Huguang in Changsha City, scolded his mother directly.

"Son of a bitch Sun Kewang! You really want to kill me!"

On a large ship at the head of Orange Island, Zhang Changgeng beat his feet and chest, wailing endlessly.

"Sir! You'd better jump quickly. If you don't jump, you won't be able to give an explanation to the court!"

The cronies and staff around him were all grieving.

Zhang Changgeng looked at the cold water of the Xiangjiang River and couldn't help but shudder.

He is the governor of Huguang and has the responsibility of enclosing borders.

Unlike Li Yinzu, the governor of Huguang in Wuchang, his governor's residence is Changsha.

In other words, if Changsha is lost, he will have no way to survive.

But now that both Xian Guoan and Chen De are dead, there are no more soldiers in Hunan.

And Sun Kewang's army was watching eagerly and had already begun to attack the city.

How can Changsha defend itself in this situation?
Since Changsha cannot be defended, does he, the governor of Huguang, still have a way to survive?
Have!
"Sir, no one knew that Sun Kewang actually rebelled! And he was able to destroy Xian Guoan and Chen De in one battle!"

"All the soldiers from Hunan have entered Yunnan and Guizhou. It is human nature for you to be unable to defend Changsha when the Sun thief is strong!"

"As long as you can fight to the death, organize your subordinates to break out when Changsha is not defended, save the fire in Hunan, and then resolutely commit suicide by throwing yourself into the river!"

"After being rescued by his subordinates, he shouted that he had lost his division and had lost his land, that he had failed the emperor's favor, and committed suicide again by drowning."

"After being rescued again, he tried to jump into the water again despite the obstruction of his subordinates. After being blocked, he pulled out his sword and tried to kill himself."

"Fortunately, the wound was not deep, and after being rescued by my subordinates, I was able to save my useful body!"

"After the persuasion of my subordinates, I was ready to use my body to atone for my sins!"

"Sir, if you follow the villain's method, even if you can't make meritorious deeds and keep your official position, you can still avoid misfortune to your life and fortune!"

Zhang Changgeng’s master tried to persuade him.

These people are like grasshoppers on the same rope as Zhang Changgeng.

If the Qing court was furious and ordered Zhang Changgeng to be executed by the Nine Tribes of Lian because of the Hunan incident, their cronies would inevitably be affected.

So saving Zhang Changgeng is equivalent to saving yourself!
"Having said that, this water... is still too cold." Zhang Changgeng looked at the cold river water, hugged his body, and hesitated.

The fall of Hunan is a foregone conclusion. If Zhang Changgeng cannot give an explanation to the Qing Dynasty, he may not even be able to save the Nine Tribes.

Therefore, we must give an explanation to the Qing Dynasty.

As long as he can commit suicide by diving into the water, it shows his loyalty to our Qing Dynasty.

In order to take into account the impact, our Qing Dynasty will probably not take heavy measures.

After all, now is the time to employ people.

Although Zhang Changgeng failed to defend Changsha, but with Sun Kewang's posture, who the hell can defend it!

Damn it, Sun Kewang even said last year that he would come to Changsha as a guest and asked Zhang Changgeng to entertain him well.

As a result...10,000+ people came!
10,000+ people came all of a sudden, who the hell can entertain them!

If he was just a guest, Zhang Changgeng would go all out and sell off his family property, and he could just grit his teeth and deal with it.

But these 10,000+ people came here to rebel.

This is really powerless.

In the current situation, no one can defend Changsha. This is something that everyone with a discerning eye knows.

If only Zhang Changgeng could become a leader in Changsha.

Throw in more water, pull out the sword, and give the court an explanation.

In order not to chill people's hearts, the Qing Dynasty could only let Zhang Changgeng go.

After all, you jumped into the water and killed yourself for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, what else do you want?

Zhang Changgeng was worthy of the emperor and the Qing Dynasty.

But the problem is that Sun Kewang came at the wrong time!

The twelfth lunar month has just passed, and the water in the Xiangjiang River is cold!
If you jump down, you will definitely catch the cold!
It's hard to say whether Zhang Changgeng's body and bones can survive it.

If he only jumped once, Zhang Changgeng would grit his teeth and jump.

But the problem is that the impact of the loss of Hunan is too great!

In addition to losing a province, the most important thing is that 10,000+ Qing troops were blocked by Sun Kewang in Yunnan and Guizhou!

For such a big thing, just jumping into it once is still too confusing for us.

If you want to expose the matter, you can only jump one more time and draw a knife to draw blood.

But in this case, Zhang Changgeng's old life can no longer withstand such a torment.

"Sir, Sun Kewang has probably broken the city! If you don't jump, you won't have time to give an explanation to the court!"

The rumble of artillery sounded, which was the sound of the front army attacking the city.

On the bank of the Xiangjiang River, countless ships were loaded with Qing army personnel, waiting for Zhang Changgeng's order, and some ships had already set sail in panic.

"Fellow soldiers, as the governor of Huguang, I, Zhang Changgeng, have the responsibility to seal the territory, but I am ashamed of the emperor and the imperial court! The fall of Changsha today is a foregone conclusion. You can quickly evacuate to Wuchang to preserve your strength so that you can serve the imperial court in the future. Retake Changsha!"

Zhang Changgeng mustered up his courage, stood on the bow of the boat, shouted loudly, and then jumped into the cold river water.

"My lord has committed suicide by diving into the water!"

The surrounding cronies were hysterical and shouted.

To the surprise of the surrounding people.

"Sir, why are you so confused! You can leave the green hills without fear of running out of firewood! How can you seek death on your own, sir!"

"Changsha is lost. We can just take it back in the future. People cannot be resurrected after death. Once you die, you will never have another chance!"

The staff and cronies performed one after another, putting on a show of loyalty to the Qing Dynasty.

Seeing this, the people around him were filled with emotion.

"Stop talking, save me!" Under the boat, Zhang Changgeng, who had fallen into the water, was shivering and whispered quickly.

"Save the adults!"

Before he finished speaking, there were a few pops.

More than a dozen vigorous figures suddenly plunged into the Xiangjiang River and dragged Zhang Changgeng up.

"Let me go! Let me go! I, Zhang Changgeng, have let down the emperor's favor and swear to die to apologize!"

"Sir! There is nothing you can do about Changsha! Sun Kewang has 10,000+ troops, but you only have a few hundred bids in hand, and all the troops in Hunan have been transferred."

"How can a few thousand mobs defeat an army of one hundred thousand tigers and wolves!"

On the bow of the boat, the cronies were shouting loudly. Although they did not shed tears, they were still loudly complaining for Zhang Changgeng.

Soon, Zhang Changgeng was rescued on the boat.

"Ah owe! Damn it, Sun Kewang! Ah owe, ah owe!" He yawned while constantly cursing Sun Kewang, the man who had tricked him.

"Sir, hurry up and dance again." The master said quickly.

"You still have to dance, the water is really too cold." Zhang Changgeng said with a shiver. "Sir, this extra jump will ensure that nothing goes wrong. The blame for the loss of Hunan is too great. If you are not careful, you will kill all the nine tribes. Do you want to be executed by the whole family?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Changgeng stood up immediately.

"My lord, what are you doing!"

With a pop, Zhang Changgeng jumped into the cold river water again.

"I am determined to die to serve the country, don't save me! Don't save me!"

Zhang Changgeng tried his best to play the role of a loyal and good man of the Qing Dynasty, posing as if he wanted to kill everyone.

"Your Majesty! I, Zhang Changgeng, am sorry for you! In the next life, I will still be a minister of the Qing Dynasty!"

In order not to wrong himself, since he has already dived, Zhang Changgeng will not let down the opportunity of this performance.

His words directly stunned the people around him who didn't know the truth.

"It seems that Governor Zhang is really a loyal and loyal man of the Qing Dynasty!"

Many officials expressed emotion.

Seeing the scene in front of them, the cronies were overjoyed.

"What are you still doing? Help me!"

In the river, Zhang Changgeng spoke quickly.

"Save the adults!"

Another exclamation sounded, and more than ten figures jumped into the cold Xiangshui again.

"Don't save me! Don't save me!" Zhang Changgeng shouted at the top of his lungs.

But the cronies around him ignored him and took him on board again.

"You slaves, don't harm me! I will die to serve the country!"

On the big ship, Zhang Changgeng kept pushing and pulling, and stretched out his right hand with difficulty towards the cold river water.

"Sir, it's easy for you to die, but if you die, who will recover Changsha and what will happen to Huguang?"

The master kept wiping his tears, but there was no trace of tears on his sleeves.

"Let me go! Let me go!" Zhang Changgeng yelled crazily.

The cronies on the left and right hurriedly held him back, as the governor kept swaying.

"Sir! It's time!" A close confidant whispered a few words.

Zhang Changgeng snapped and broke free from the control of his cronies.

In an instant, a sword was pulled out from the henchman's waist, flashing with cold light.

"Yeah!" Zhang Changgeng put the knife on his neck, yelled several times, and rolled his eyes.

"Sir!" The cronies exclaimed and quickly stepped forward to grab the sword.

But it was too late, the saber slashed across Zhang Changgeng's neck, and there was a line of blood on his neck.

"Ah!" He was so moved and in pain that he just wanted to scream when his master grabbed his mouth and nose.

"The governor committed suicide!"

"The governor committed suicide!"

In the fleet, the cronies yelled wildly, causing chaos in the entire fleet.

"It hurts to death!"

On the deck, Zhang Changgeng held his neck and wailed.

"Sir, I don't want to let my child trap the wolf. For the sake of the nine tribes, you, the old man, just bear with it!"

The master let out a long sigh, and then said loudly: "Hurry, save your lord!"

In this way, when Zhang Changgeng, the governor of Huguang, led the front army to attack Changsha, he took the governor's Yamen's large and small civil and military forces and the garrison green camp. After such a commotion, he took a waterway and took a boat to the north. Changsha fell into the hands of Sun Kewang.

"Sir, although we have given an explanation to the imperial court in public, if no one writes a letter on our behalf, I am afraid that the imperial edict to kill the Nine Clans will come down before the news reaches the emperor's ears."

In the big boat, the master said worriedly.

"Alas, now that things have come to a point, I can only spend all my wealth and spend hundreds of thousands of taels of silver on everything. I just hope that the emperor and the court will know that I am loyal to the Qing Dynasty." Zhang Changgeng sighed.

As the saying goes, after three years of clearing the prefecture, one can earn one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver. As the governor of Huguang, Zhang Changgeng, although an honest official, still made hundreds of thousands during his tenure.

It's a pity that after receiving the 1 taels of silver from Lord Sun, he could no longer keep the hundreds of thousands.

Without careful management, even with this explanation, Zhang Changgeng would still be dead if no one in the court said anything.

He can't write the letter himself, can he?

Since he wants to die, why is Zhang Changgeng still alive and writing a petition?
There are some things that you can’t say yourself, so you have to borrow others’ words to say it!
Although it is to fool the Qing Dynasty, it must be fooled for the sake of the Nine Clans!
"Sir, how about my subordinates take a boat to Wuchang and ask the Governor to submit a letter?"

"Hunan is lost, and his guilt is not small."

Zhang Changgeng sneered and said: "However, if I can get away with it, Governor Li's guilt will be much smaller. Master, please take a few boxes of treasures to Wuchang first and have a good discussion with the Governor!"

The first person responsible for the fall of Hunan was Zhang Changgeng, the governor of Huguang who was stationed in Changsha.

The second person responsible is naturally the Governor of Huguang, Li Yinzu.

If Zhang Changgeng can get away with it, let us open up the Qing Dynasty.

Li Yinzu is naturally less guilty.

In general, if Zhang Changgeng was killed by the Nine Tribes, Li Yinzu would at least be killed.

If Zhang Changgeng had saved his life, he might even have done meritorious service.

Then Li Yinzu is basically fine.

After all, our Qing Dynasty also has some rules. Is there any reason not to prosecute the first defendant but to prosecute the second defendant?
It doesn't matter if you are promoted to a humble citizen. We in the Qing Dynasty would not dare to mess with important officials like the governor and governor!

"Okay! Sir, my subordinate will go to Wuchang immediately. I must make your loyalty known to the court." The master said solemnly.

"Then thank you sir." Zhang Changgeng covered his neck and yawned as he thanked him.

"Sir, it doesn't have to be like this." The master took a deep breath, then turned around and prepared to go.

"God damn Sun Kewang!" On the Xiangjiang River, Zhang Changgeng was lying on the boat, full of resentment, and kept cursing.

"God damn Sun Kewang!"

In the palace, Shunzhi, who was celebrating the victory of Yunnan and Guizhou, took the urgent report from Hunan, his face flushed and extremely angry.

"Your Majesty, what's going on?" Suk Saha and others saw that something was wrong, and their hearts rose directly to their throats.

In the Battle of Beipanjiang, our Qing Dynasty won a complete victory.

In one fell swoop, he defeated 20 Ming troops, killed and recruited tens of thousands, and captured countless soldiers, horses, and equipment.

Even Li Dingguo's eldest son Li Puxing was killed by Zhao Butai.

After this battle, anyone with a discerning eye knew that Li Dingguo could no longer hold Kunming.

When Kunming rains again, the situation in the entire world will be decided.

The news spread back to Beijing, and Shunzhi and Xiaozhuang were so happy that they didn't sleep a wink for three days.

Yesterday, Hong Chengchou and Doni also sent news that Sun Kewang's troops had appeared in southern Yunnan.

So just after the Lantern Festival, the Forbidden City held a lively celebration banquet.

All the civil and military officials of the Qing Dynasty were very happy and felt that the world was settled.

Emperor Shunzhi, who had been smiling at the celebration banquet, suddenly changed his expression and scolded Sun Kewang. (End of chapter)
