Chapter 1110 Which one is stronger between the Qing army and the Guan Ning army?

Yu Chenglong's aggressive appearance made Jia Da and Song Qian unhappy on the spot. They both felt that this person was really ignorant, and they didn't see what his identity was, and what his identity was on the other side. This was not when a county magistrate dared to look straight at the general decades ago, but when anyone had a knife and who was in trouble!

Jia Da and Song Qian were very disdainful of Jackie Chan, because they said that this person was a juren, and that was all a compliment. He was just a scholar who failed the provincial examinations in the Ming and Qing dynasties. He really didn't dare to take the imperial examinations last year, so he spent some money to become a supervisor at the Imperial College. As soon as the Taiping Army defeated the Qing army in Jiangbei, the Qing officials in Jiangbei were frightened and resigned and sealed to flee, and countless vacancies appeared. This was what made Yu Chenglong, who "recommended himself" to the Ministry of Personnel, picked up the magistrate of Hefei. Otherwise, he would still be in the north. He was a poor student in the capital, and he would not know when he would become an official. The officials he "picked" were wrong, and he was even more obsessed with him and specially submitted a memorial to the Qing court to protect him as the prefect of Lujiang.

Song Qian and Jia Da couldn't figure out why the Admiral valued the magistrate with the surname Yu. He also brought the people with him. He was very polite to this person on weekdays. He must have said "Mr. Yu", and he would give him whatever he wanted and listen to him. He only had this Yu Chenglong a habit, and his nostrils grew to his eyes. He didn't even take it seriously. He felt that he had shot himself in the foot.

Jia Da snorted slightly and wanted to step forward to scold Yu Chenglong so that he could know the right way. Don’t think that the Admiral appreciates you, but you really think that he is a rare talent. Five or six people have risen.

Tang Sanshui sank his face. Seeing this, Jia Da dared not act rashly, so he held his breath and retreated to the side. After raising his head, Tang Sanshui's expression was as before. He first blew up, and then said, "Sir, when will this governor stop moving forward? Mr., you must know that since our governor led his troops to the north to serve the king, our Jiangnan army and the Ming army have fought several times. In any battle, the soldiers were not brave enough, and everyone moved forward. Which time did this governor have ever been afraid and wanted to retreat? Not to mention looking at the world, the army that serves the king in the Central Plains is probably only one of our governors! With this, Mr. cannot say that our governor is afraid of the Ming army!"

Yu Chenglong admitted this, so he did not refute it, but questioned: "Sir, I am not afraid of the Ming army, but the official dares to ask, "This place is only more than fifty miles away from Guide Prefecture City. The army is in a hurry and can arrive in one day. Why do you stop here for three days and don't want to leave?"

"Ah, sir doesn't know anything about this."

Tang Sanshui showed a look of embarrassment, but cursed Yu Chenglong thousands of times in his heart. If His Highness of Qi had not been crazy about "supporting" this person, he would have been full and he was so slapped with a small magistrate. However, this surnamed Yu was a cruel person. As soon as he took office, he tricked the anti-Qing righteous people in the territory to the county town, saying that he wanted to enlist the county. Anyway, after the righteous people entered the city, he killed everyone, and then hung his head one by one on the city gate, scaring the anti-Qing righteous people outside the city to become a mess. Based on this alone, Tang Sanshui felt that if he really wanted to face the Qing Dynasty, he would have to support Jackie Chan, but now he was in the Qing Dynasty and was in a clear mind, so he really turned apart to promote a Han official who served the Qing court.

According to Tang Sanshui's method, he would kill all the officials loyal to the Qing Dynasty from the three prefectures and counties he controlled early, so that he would be satisfied with the King of Qi. But King of Qi said that this would not work. If Tang Sanshui wanted to climb higher in the Qing Dynasty and become the main pillar of the Qing Dynasty, he would not be missing the loyal ministers of the Qing Dynasty and his subordinates.

Red flowers need to be matched with green leaves to look good, but if there are no green leaves, they will be divided into large and small flowers. For example, the Han people who were loyal to the Qing Dynasty, such as Yu Chenglong, were small flowers, and their existence could further highlight the big flower of Tang Sanshui. Otherwise, the bright red flowers of Tang Sanshui alone would be dazzling, and over time, there would always be doubts in the Qing court. If there was a bunch of small red flowers, the effect would be different.

Zhou Shixiang asked Tang Sanshui to "support" Yu Chenglong for only one purpose, so that Beijing would never doubt its loyalty and ability to Tang Sanshui. In this way, no matter how awkward Tang Sanshui was, he had to cooperate in singing the play. Besides, this matter was also beneficial to him. At least the more people like Yu Chenglong around him, the more he could guarantee his safety. Of course, Tang Sanshui was not stupid enough to be really important. He was firmly grasped by military power in his hands, and even Yu Chenglong and others could not touch him.

Seeing Tang Sanshui thinking about something with a embarrassed look, Yu Chenglong suddenly sighed, his expression calmed down a lot, and said, "If the Admiral is really a difficult situation, the subordinates are just a small magistrate. He naturally dared not question the Admiral, nor did he dare to urge the Admiral to blame him, but he asked the Admiral to send three or two old soldiers to me, and Jackie Chan took them north to serve the king with the ritual of the ministers."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jia Da sneered: "Master Yu, what's the use of a three-digit old soldier? Could it be that Master Yu wants the old soldier to collect the body for you?"

Song Qian also laughed: "Sanliang old soldiers can't protect the Lord. If you go north to serve the king, it would be too much of a joke if you only go with the elders and the Sanliang old soldiers."

Yu Chenglong heard the sarcastic meaning in their words and said proudly: "Although Jackie Chan has no power to tie a chicken, his loyalty and courage are enough to see the sun and the moon. Even if he died in the work of serving the king, he also fulfilled his integrity and had no regrets even if he died!" After saying that, he knelt down and begged Tang Sanshui: "Please also help the Admiral!"

Tang Sanshui hurriedly reached out to help him up and kept saying, "What are you doing, get up quickly, get up quickly, when did I say that I can't go back to Guide? As for what happened so tragic, it was as if I was just like I was not saving my life."

Yu Chenglong refused to get up and asked, "Sir, are you willing to go north?"

"I"

Tang Sanshui had no choice but to go to Guide, so he just went there. When he arrived at the place to watch, he blurted out a poem written by His Highness King Qi, "If it is beneficial to the country's life and death, how can we avoid it because of misfortune and good fortune? Now the Qing Dynasty is in a difficult state, Henan is in a critical state, the north is in a critical state, and the capital is in a critical state. As a minister of the Qing Dynasty, my governor will do his duty as a minister, and my governor has decided to do his duty, so that the whole army will advance towards Guide, defend the Yellow River, defend the Central Plains, and defend the Qing Dynasty!"

"What a good sentence for benefiting the country's life and death, how can you avoid misfortune and good fortune?" After hearing Tang Sanshui's bold statement, Yu Chenglong was really moved and moved. He murmured to himself: "Defend the Yellow River, defend the Central Plains, and defend the Qing Dynasty, okay, okay, okay."

After Yu Chenglong left, Jia Dada was stunned: "Sir, do you really want to go to Guide?"

"Don't you go and drink the northwest wind here?"

Tang Sanshui looked at Yu Chenglong who was leaving and replied angrily, "It's a step to take one step, after all, there is still food in Guide City."

Jin Li is now nominally the deputy general of Tang Sanshui, but he has no personal soldiers in his headquarters. Most of the more than 100 Han military flag generals who fled back from Jiangnan with him were transferred to other camps by Tang Sanshui, and the rest were killed in battle. Er Jin, this former Gushan Ezhen had only two close friends, one was his personal Goshhamuda, and the other was Ge Siwu, the leader of the Han army.

After following Tang Sanshui from Lujiang to the north to serve the king, Jin Li was very negative along the way and was somewhat resistant to the matter of serving the king. He once advised Tang Sanshui that the court did not issue an order to serve the king, so they should stay in Lujiang honestly, otherwise once they went north, Lujiang and Fengyang would be captured by the Taiping Army of Anhui. At that time, they would not even have a place to stab. If the support for the king this time is unfavorable, the tens of thousands of people would become an isolated army, and if it is not done well, the entire army would be wiped out.

Unfortunately, Tang Sanshui did not listen to Jin Li's advice and insisted on serving the king. Jin Li, who had no military power, had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow the north. Fortunately, the progress of the journey was quite smooth. Without any attack, Jin Li also killed a bandit leader's head with his own hands, and then his attitude became a little positive. However, no one knew that Jin Li was always worried about something. This incident made him uneasy from his northwards, and he was afraid that it would happen at any time.

Hamuda and Ge Siwu didn't know what Jin Li was worried about, so they hurried to report to Jin Li after they got the news.

"Sir, Yu Chenglong went to the Admiral's tent!"

Jin Li was stunned: "That Hefei magistrate?"

Ge Siwu nodded violently: "It's him!"

"What did he do when he went to the Admiral's tent?" Jin Li was a little surprised.

Hamuda said: "It seems to be asking why the admiral was not stationed."

"I have the courage." Jin Li sneered: "But he is a fool."

"grown ups?"

Hamuda and Ge Siwu didn't know what their grandfather meant. Jin Li glanced at them, didn't say much to them, and waved them to go down. After the two of them retreated, Jin Li collapsed and sat there as if they were being taken away, drooping his head, looking at the table with a steady look, not knowing what they were thinking.

The Jiangnan Right Army had no cavalry at first, but later, after a Mongolian army retreated from Jiangnan was incorporated by Tang Sanshui, there were cavalry. Over the past year, Tang Sanshui successively recruited some horse bandits, and the Manchu and Mongolian scattered soldiers who escaped from Yangzhou actually formed a cavalry of nearly 2,000 people. After the formation of this cavalry, Tang Sanshui became much stronger. During several battles with the Anhui Taiping Army, this Manchu and Mongolian cavalry made a lot of efforts and made a lot of contributions. The person who commanded this cavalry now is a deputy general who was born in the Mongolian army flag, named Na Mutu. I heard that his uncle Guo Muluo was a genius of the Mongolian army.

Because this Manchu and Mongolian cavalry was formed by scattered soldiers who escaped from the battlefield and was raised by Tang Sanshui with a lot of money, the Mutu and the Manchu and Mongolian officers were very loyal to Tang Sanshui. Except for Tang Sanshui, they ignored any generals of the Jiangnan Right Army. On weekdays, these Manchu and Mongolian cavalry were very arrogant and did not contact the Jiangnan Right Army at all. Even if they ran into each other, they would often scold them in Manchu and Mongolian dialect. It was really arrogant.

However, except for Tang Sanshui and his confidants, outsiders did not know that the real commander of this Manchu and Mongolian cavalry was not the Mongols, but the Han Wu Chongshan, who was originally an envoy of the An army in the third town of the Taiping Army. This Manchu and Mongolian cavalry was not composed of Manchu and Mongolian scattered soldiers who escaped from Jiangnan and Jiangbei, but the entire Taiping Army. Except for more than 600 "real" Manchu and Mongolian Tatars, the rest were all Han people.

Since Wu Chongshan was seriously injured in Jiangbei, he has left behind sequelae. When it rains, the wound will hurt severely. Today, it rains outside, so Wu Chongshan has been staying alone in the tent since the morning. He doesn't want the soldiers outside to see the painful expression on his face, the general.

Gently gritted his teeth and squeezed the old wound on his chest hard. Wu Chongshan picked up a bowl of medicinal soup and prepared to drink it. A familiar sound came from outside.

"Envoy Wu'an!"

Although Wu Chongshan has been promoted to commander, Mutu still likes to use the former name. Wu Chongshan is not surprised by this, but instead feels close. On that day, if Mutu and the others had not rescued him in time, perhaps Wu Chongshan would have become a corpse underground.

"Sit down and drink a bowl of water."

Wu Chongshan put down the medicine bowl and threw the fake braid on the table aside.

The Mutu did not drink water, but said in a hurry: "Tang Sanshui sent a message, saying that after an hour, the whole army set out towards Guide and asked us to continue walking ahead."

Wu Chongshan said "Oh" and said softly: "Admiral Tang doesn't plan to wait and see anymore? I thought he was going to retreat."

The Mutu smiled and said, "It's not okay if he doesn't go, the handsome guy can't spare him."

"Then prepare to set off." Wu Chongshan said as he stood up, took the fake braid that had been thrown aside and suddenly asked about something about the wooden picture.

"You think, which one is better, Wu Sangui's Guanning Army or the Qing Army?"

"I can't say it." Mutu was really hard to answer.

Wu Chongshan smiled and said, "You have fought with the Guanning Army, why can't you say it right?"

"I've fought, but that's because the Wu army was not prepared, so it can't be considered a head-on battle."

Wu Chongshan nodded and did not ask again. But the Mutu said in confusion: "Envoy Wu An, why are you asking about this?"

"The Grand Marshal said that we will fight Wu Sangui sooner or later, so we have to know more about each other, otherwise we will suffer a loss when we really fight."

"If we eliminate the Manchu Tatars, we must fight with Wu Sangui, a dog thief. But now our enemies with Wu Sangui are Manchu Tatars, so there is no need to worry about facing his Guanning Army immediately." Na Mutu said.

“That’s true.”

Wu Chongshan chuckled lightly, his chest suddenly hurt and his brows frowned. When Mutu saw it, he hurriedly said, "Why, the wound is coming again? Should I let the doctor come over?"
