Chapter 128: The Furious Wu Sangui

As soon as Fan Wencheng came back, he informed Huang Taiji of Wu Xiang's promise to jointly annihilate Mangui's troops.

Huang Taiji, who had been running around like a broken dog in this Yanzhao area these days, couldn't help but feel a little smile after hearing this.

"Wu Xiang is quite ambitious, but being able to allow us to successfully leave the Eight Banners main force and eliminate Mangui's army can be considered a destruction. Zhu Youxiao's most powerful cavalry. In this way, it would not be a loss to support him as the king of Liaodong."

Huang Taiji said that, then threw his horse and ran away with a whip: "Transfer the order from my Khan to rush to Hejiabao!"

Wu Xiang also showed all the elite troops, and Wu Sangui's face was even cold: "How far is Mangui's tribe from Hejiabao?"

"It's only half a day to go back to my son," a spy replied.

After hearing this, Wu Sangui nodded with satisfaction and came to Wu Xiang: "Father, Mangui has been pressing on us. An uncivilized barbarian can be appointed as the governor and regard himself as a loyal minister and good general. Today, he will also teach him a lesson."

"If he wants to be loyal to the Zhu family, let him go to the underworld to be loyal. Have you found out everywhere? The news of this joint attack on Man Gui must be foolproof."

Wu Xiang smiled and asked very seriously.

"Don't worry, my father, everything is ready, the Tartars have also moved towards this side. As long as Mangui enters Hejia Fort, we can attack directly! At that time, his cavalry will be trapped in the city, and even if he wants to escape, he will not be able to escape!"

Wu Sangui said with his teeth bared.

It started to rain, and the entire Yanzhao land became as misty as in the south of the Yangtze River in March. Man Gui, the left governor and general of Shanhaiguan, turned around and looked anxiously: "How long will Wu Xiang's troops be here? It's going to be foggy. If you don't reach Hejiabao again, what should you do if you are ambushed by the Tartars? Go and ask."

Man Gui got off the horse and ordered the soldiers to make fire and cook on the spot. After rushing all night, he was hungry and sat on the grass and chewed dry food with the other soldiers.

Man Gui is a typical Mongolian character. He has a round face and wide shoulders, a tall figure, a burly body, and a slightly fat belly. However, he is extremely brave when he kills enemies on the battlefield. Now the commander Wang Zaijin advocates joining the Mongolians to resist the Jin Dynasty, and he also takes good care of him, a Shandong man with Mongolian blood, and even gives him the two thousand Mongolian cavalry who have cast him.

Man Gui knew how to repay gratitude, and he never dared not to obey the imperial edicts. Over the past few days, he rushed from Shanhaiguan to Yongping, and then from Yongping to the capital to siege the Tartars. Although he had been traveling a long distance, he was exhausted both physically and mentally, and had no complaints. Even when His Majesty ordered reinforcements from all over the country not to disturb the people's wealth, he personally killed two of his confidant generals who had plundered the people's property.

Mr. Lu's order was to ask him to arrive at Hejiabao today to block the entrance of the Tartars' eastward entry, so he rushed over without stopping. But just as he was about to rest and wait for news from Wu Xiang's troops, a Jinyiwei guard suddenly rushed over. Man Gui knew Shen Lian, the Jinyiwei Qianhu, who was responsible for the Jinyiwei in Liaodong, so he hurriedly stood up and asked, "What's wrong with Shen Qianhu?"

Shen Lian didn't get off his horse and handed out a token and said, "General Man, Wu Xiang's troops colluded with the Tartars to try to get rid of your troops. The news has been known to Your Majesty. Your Majesty specially ordered your troops to immediately withdraw from Yongping City secretly. At that time, Zhao's sect will provide you with food and grass."

"What!"

Man Gui asked loudly, and after hearing Chen Lian say it, he was so angry that he stabbed it on the ground: "This king. Ba. Egg!" He immediately hurriedly organized his cavalry to turn around.

...

When Wu Xiang thought that he was about to officially rebel against the Ming Dynasty and wanted to collude with the Tatars to attack the strong Mangui tribe, he was still a little nervous and hesitant, but when he thought that he could only get rid of Mangui and then leave the country with the help of the Tatars, he couldn't help but become a local emperor.

"Sangui, do you think we can annihilate Mangui's troops when we join forces with the Tartars? You know, reinforcements from other departments of the imperial court are not far from here, especially the imperial guards of Zhu Youxiao. Unexpectedly, they can defeat the Tartars and make people like Huang Taiji dare not touch their edge again. This shows that this imperial guards should not be underestimated."

Although Wu Xiang has ambitions, he has no courage and courage. Instead, he acts on his son who is not yet in his prime.

But Wu Sangui is very experienced. Even if the arrow is on the string, he is calm and unsuspecting: "Don't worry, Mangui's long-distance marching has long been an exhausted army, and his field battles are not as good as the brave Eight Banners soldiers. Now, with the elite cavalry of the Tartars and our artillery fire, we will not worry about annihilation of Mangui in one fell swoop."

However, just as the father and son were fantasizing about becoming a prince in the future, a trusted servant suddenly came to report: "Master, the imperial court has an order!"

After hearing this, Wu Xiang was stunned and looked at Wu Sangui suspiciously. Wu Sangui's face was calm and his eyes were slightly frightened. After a long time, he squeezed out a sneer: "Father, why not listen to what the imperial court's order is."

The visitor was Tang Fusheng, the law enforcement officer of the Imperial Guard and the Qianhu of the Jinyiwei. After seeing Wu Xiang and others kneeling down, Tang Fusheng slowly launched the decree drafted by Liu Bin, the "scholar" of the Imperial Guard. The content was naturally the edict to grant Wu Xiang the King of Liao and make Wu Sangui the prince of the King of Liao.

"The emperor is here to congratulate His Highness the King of Liao. His Majesty has already made an order to make His Highness and the prince march all the long distance. He is very tired. He should leave the customs as soon as possible and return to the fiefdom. There is no need to participate in the siege of the Tatars. General Zhao's sect has arrived here and is preparing to take over. The emperor will say goodbye."

After Tang Fusheng left for a long time, Wu Xiang did not recover. He did not expect that the court would suddenly grant him the title of king.

However, Wu Sangui's face was pulled down, and suddenly he drew his sword in anger and stabbed a trusted heavy armored iron cavalry to death.

Seeing this, Wu Xiang was shocked and asked quickly: "Why is my son like this?"

"At that time, when we were conspiring with Mr. Fan, this person was closest to us, so this person had to die!"

From then on, Wu Sangui touched the armored soldiers' clothes for a long time, and finally took out a paper with a strange symbol written on it and thorned it: "These code words are owned by the Jinyiwei, and it seems that they are indeed secret spies of the court."

Wu Xiang couldn't help but be shocked and turned pale: "So, the court already knows about us."

"Didn't my father see that the reason why the court suddenly conferred us kings and even severed all the land of Liaodong to us was because it saw through our conspiracy with the Tartars!

It’s just that Zhu Youxiao is not strong now and has to deal with the Tartars, so he has to do this trick to keep a low profile!

In name, he said that Zhao Ru's Education Department would take over us, but in fact he just told us that the court had been secretly monitored by Zhao Ru's Education Department. We either came out of seclusion in a regular manner or waited for being surrounded and annihilated by Zhao Ru's Education Department and Mangui. Zhu Youxiao was forced to do something urgent and could let the Tartars go even if they didn't let us go!"
