Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 506

In a million-level battle, putting the last company at the most critical moment is enough to control the direction of the entire battle. However, in this battle, [-] hussars did not appear at the critical moment, which directly caused a stalemate in the battle. Scarface's offensive awareness is stronger, otherwise it's really hard to say how the battle will be.

"You can do it! Seven in and seven out, Zhao Zilong! Killed the intruders so bloody that they turned into river corpses and littered the field! The whole of our beggar army, you, Liu Tichun, are the only one who can fight, can't you! Go after it! Give it back! What are you doing back here?"

Song Qingshu was so angry that he kicked Liu Tichun upside down, cursed, and slapped him left and right. A few electric cannons flew down, and beat Zhang Fei's bearded general into Xu Chu , the two eyes are swollen like peaches, and the nose is also bleeding.

His hands were a little weak when he hit him, so Song Qingshu stopped his hands angrily, Ruyi, still kicked Liu Tichun who had knelt back again, staggered, waved his sleeves towards the door, and roared: "Take it off!" Lose all your seals, and wash the toilet for me, I don't want to see you, get out!"

From the commander-in-chief, Dusi was directly turned into an orderly and was beaten, but both Liu Zongmin and Liu Tichun were relieved, especially Liu Tichun, who didn't cover his nosebleeds, and kowtowed to Song Qingshu again.

"Thank you, Master!"

This is him, he followed Song Qingshu when he was in Dai County, and he was able to get Song Qingshu to beat him with his own hands. If he joined the beggar army after Dabie Mountain, Ma Shouying and He Jin would have to be dragged out and hacked, and I still have lingering fears After thanking him, Liu Tichun staggered out while leaning on the wall.

But panting heavily, he sat back in the handsome chair, looking at the Chuangzi flag that was ravaged like a rag on the ground and the puddle of blood, Song Qingshu suddenly raised his hand again.

"Today, Marshal Liu's iron cavalry broke through the formation, and later he captured the bandit's flag. The two feats continued, and he rewarded ten thousand taels of silver, five boxes of brocade clothes, one box of precious stones, one box of gold ingots, and one box of Sujiao spices. His subordinate officers, in turn, Continuing the merits, each person who died in battle will be compensated in turn, Mr. Boya, the staff will come up with a plan!"

"We will be rewarded for our meritorious deeds, and punished for our deeds. In the future, no matter who it is, no matter who dares to disrespect the military order, it will be executed without mercy. Do you hear me clearly?"

This time, I had a chance to kill Li Yan, but for various reasons, I didn't succeed. The resentment in Song Qingshu's chest could not be vented, and the murderous aura in his words made everyone listen to it. Shocked, they clasped their fists in agreement.

This matter can be considered to be over, the tent was quiet for a while, and then Sun Chuanting cupped his fists, turned his head to the scarred face of the other general's head and said: "Commander Xia, where is Prince Fu?"

These words made Song Qingshu suddenly realize that Li Yan had disturbed him too much, and Zhu Yousong was the main reason why he led the army from all the way this time. Immediately, he also fixed his eyes on Scarface, but Hearing these words, the rigid face with scars and knife marks rarely showed some helplessness.

…………

Once the old King Fu died, it did not mean that the Fu clan would die. No accidents, Zhu Yousong will basically take over the throne of King Fu smoothly and become [-] hectares of Wang Tian, ​​which is spread all over Henan and Sichuan, especially thousands of shops near Luoyang. The owner of the farm, although Li Zicheng robbed more than half of the wealth and food accumulated by the Fuwang Mansion for decades, the real estate is still there, and Fufan is still a wealthy Fufan. Part of such arrogance and extravagance comes from inheriting the old Fu Wang.

For this reason, even though the begging army suffered heavy losses yesterday, today Song Qingshu raised a division to serve as a guard of honor, and went to Mengjin with banners to meet and welcome Zhu Yousong.

The county town of Mengjin is not big, and less than a mile from the city gate is the county government where Zhu Yousong temporarily lives, but before getting off the carriage, Song Qingshu couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth.

If a person encounters a catastrophe, his home is burned, and his father dies, it may take a long time to recover from the heavy blow, just like his little pepper, who lost several catties from his already slender figure, and his thin body Song Qingshu was worried, but this brother-in-law Zhu Yousong actually gained a lot of weight. He was much wider than the last time we met in Luoyang. His body shape was a bit like a weight.

Before Song Qingshu got off the car, the little pepper who came from Ruzhou overnight had two red eye circles, and greeted him excitedly. , also squeezed out some tears, opened his generous arms, and hugged Xiaojiao in his arms. The two cried bitterly at each other. Song Qingshu's heart was also sour when he heard the crying.

This time, it was really a catastrophe for Prince Fu's mansion. Only Concubine Zou and other Concubine Fu escaped. More than half of Xiaojiao's more than ten brothers and sisters were gone. The 200 million taels of silver in the account, the remaining antiques and treasures, Wanguan's family property, silk and satin, and rice grain stocks were almost all destroyed.

After exchanging greetings in Mengjin County for a while, Zhu Yousong stepped into the king's car and returned to his own car. Song Qingshu immediately began to meditate. There are too many variables this time!

First of all, when the old Fu Wang died, the forces of the begging army in the Central Plains, Sichuan, and Shandong were a bit shaky. It's gone!Moreover, in the Battle of Mangshan, Song Qingshu severely damaged Li Chuang's main force. I don't know if Li Zicheng can still stand firm in Henan. If he is about to be defeated, Song Qingshu's perception of the future will really be distorted a lot, and many things will change. unknown.

But even if Li Zicheng was defeated, Song Qingshu was still not optimistic about the Ming court.

Before Chongzhen died, he felt that Wei Zhongxian would not fall into such a situation. Song Qingshu felt that he was really right. No matter how greedy Wei Zhongxian was, at least he maintained an authoritative central government and would use all means to consolidate himself and the court. However, Chongzhen was good because he was mean and ungrateful, and he did not take responsibility. His "diligent administration" actually accelerated the disintegration of the Ming court.

But in this emotion, Eunuch Tian beside Zhu Yousong suddenly trotted over and knocked on the car door.

"Marshal, Your Royal Highness, please go over!"

Wang Jia is a big cart with eight horses, and it is spacious enough inside, but when Zhu Yousong sits in it, the comfortable type becomes economical. Looking at the narrow space inside, and sitting on Wang Jia, it is easy In order to cause some unnecessary trouble, Song Qingshu still chose to ride a horse and follow outside the car, clenching his fists against the car window.

"The prince called the minister, what's the matter?"

"Sister-in-law, you are here!"

As soon as he saw Song Qingshu, Zhu Yousong was as kind as if he saw a rescuer. He suddenly stretched out his fat hand and grabbed Song Qingshu's hand. The hot and sticky feeling immediately made Song Qingshu uncomfortable. frown.

But the more uncomfortable thing is yet to come.

"Sister-in-law, that bastard with scars on his face, you must punish Gu Gu severely! Best, kill him!"

Scarred face is the scarred one. Yesterday Scarface said that Prince Fu's son was in the Mengjin County Government. Why didn't they expect the two to get married? Song Qingshu couldn't help but asked in amazement.

"Oh? Junshuai Xia, is there any impoliteness?"

"I'm rude? This bastard doesn't pay attention to Gu at all!" At the mention of this, Zhu Yousong's face was filled with bitterness and hatred, and he patted his thigh and shouted: "You don't know, this bastard actually took Gu Tied to the horse like a zongzi, let the horse run wildly, this way, almost killed the orphan, and he also locked the orphan in the county government to prevent the orphan from coming out, you don’t know, every day is either canned or canned, then Is it for people to eat? It’s only eaten by lowly, low-class mud legs! It’s disgusting to feed an orphan to a dog, and he’s really abusing orphans! The crime is unforgivable!”

Song Qingshu's forehead popped up a few more times. From Liaodong to Luoyang, all he ate was canned food that even dogs would not eat. Not only him, but the whole army of beggars ate that food. This obscenity scolded him severely. Besides, even if Scarface didn't say anything, Song Qingshu could probably guess that he was chased by the Chuangjun that day and escaped for his life. Song Qingshu was very lucky that Scarface was able to drag this weight back. Full of complaints.

But this is not the time to confront him, the old King Fu is dead, and the relationship between the begging army and the Fu Fan needs to be re-established in the hands of the new King Fu, so Song Qingshu still nodded expressionlessly.

"Don't worry, my son, I will deal with him when I go back!"

"That sister-in-law!"

As soon as the matter was over, Zhu Yousong's fat face showed some anticipation, and he asked Song Qingshu, "Well, how is Luoyang City now?"

Filial piety is emphasized these days, Zhu Yousong didn't ask the old Fu Wang first, but first cared about the property in Luoyang City. He heard Song Qingshu and the corners of his mouth twitched again. He paused for a moment before he said a little bluntly.

"I defeated the intruders yesterday, and I was in a hurry to welcome the prince. I don't know what happened to Luoyang."

At this time, he suddenly felt disgusted with the son of King Fu, and didn't want to talk to him anymore, Song Qingshu simply held off and held his fists again: "Your Highness, I still have military affairs, so I won't accompany you any longer, forgive me, and leave! "

"Hey! Sister-in-law, you must control your soldiers, those bastards are the most unclean when they touch their hands and feet!"

Song Qingshu's forehead popped up again with several veins.

…………

Luoyang Mengjin is only more than 40 miles away, and the infantry marched and trotted all morning, but Zhu Yousong, the king, asked to rest for a while, walked for a full day and a half, and was still camping outside for half a day. The battalion could hear everything clearly, and did not return to Luoyang City until noon the next day.

After encountering this military disaster, Luoyang City really changed its appearance. There were traces left by the flames of war everywhere, especially Fuwang Palace. After entering the city, Song Qingshu couldn't believe it. After burning the main hall and looting everything, Li Zicheng ordered the Fuwang Mansion to be burned down. It was built like the Imperial Palace in the Forbidden City and cost more than 50 taels of silver. The Fuwang Mansion, which had demolished thousands of houses, has now been burned into a piece of scorched rubble, turning into pavilions and pavilions. For scorched earth.

Many great buildings in the history of Rome have survived, and to later generations, they are still telling people the glory of Western civilization, but those great buildings in China have turned into scorched earth with the changes of the times, such as Daming Palace, Afang Palace, Han Dynasty Chang'an, so that future generations can only rely on imagination, looking at this piece of scorched earth, Song Qingshu is particularly distressed.

"Father!"

With a cry of alarm, Little Pepper couldn't control it, and ran sadly towards the interior of Fuwang Palace. Before Song Qingshu was anxious to chase after him, there was another heart-piercing scream beside him, and he sat down at the door. You Song cried sadly.

"My palace!"
