Chapter 507

Wang Yongqiang, General of Yan'an.

He and Jiang Tuan were originally from the same hometown, they were from the peasant army, and later recruited An as a general. When Jiang Tuan conspired to raise an army, he had already been in private contact with him.On Daming's side, Wang Yongqiang had also been contacted for a long time, with the intention of instigating rebellion.

As early as when He Zhen and others entered the customs to attack Xi'an, Wang Yongqiang had planned to respond, but he was not ready yet. As a result, Wu Sangui and others came over, and Wang Yongqiang had no choice but to stand still.

Later, He Zhen and others were quickly defeated, and Wang Yongqiang had no choice but to wait patiently for the opportunity.

Jiang Guan raised troops in Datong, Yansui governor Wang Zhengzhi, and Yansui commander Shen Wenhua urgently dispatched troops from all walks of life in northern Shaanxi. Wang Yongqiang received the order to lead the troops to Shenmu, Fugu and other places to defend the river.

What the tartars don't know is that in Wang Yongqiang's camp, there is a master who has been staying for several months. He is actually from Jiangnan. Like Dong Zhining, he is one of the six crazy students who participated in the Ningbo Juyi. It was given to Wang Jiaqin, who was also in the Ministry of Science and Technology, and also the supervisory censor and military supervisor of Shaanxi.

After receiving the order, Wang Yongqiang sent troops. Wang Zhengzhi and others thought that he was ordered to come to listen to the order. However, Wang Yongqiang led his troops to Yulin, launched a mutiny at night, occupied Yulin City, and killed the governor Wang Zhengzhi, the general Shen Wenhua and Jingyuan soldiers. Say Xia Shifang.

After seizing Yulin, Wang Yongqiang invited Wang Jiaqin from his family to read out the edict of Emperor Shaotian.

Wang Yongqiang was awarded the title of Admiral of Shaanxi, he was given the seal of a general to appease him, and he was given the title of Marquis of Yan'an.

After swearing in Yulin, Wang Yongqiang immediately led his troops to the south, and together with his brother Wang Yongzhen who stayed in Yan'an, controlled Yan'an, killed the prefect Song Congxin, and then swept up northern Shaanxi.

Gao Youcai from Shenmu County led the crowd to respond.

Before Wang Jiaqin came to northern Shaanxi under the order, he had collected information on Wang Yongqiang, carefully studied this person, and finally came to the conclusion that this person could be wooed to instigate rebellion.

Wang Yongqiang is from Wubao County, Shanxi Province. His father died early when he was young. He, his younger brother Yongzhen and his mother depended on each other for life. A widow with two children can imagine the bitterness. Because he had no father since he was a child, he was often bullied by the children.

Wang Yongqiang and his younger brother have often fought with others since they were young. He will never give in to anyone who bullies their orphans and widows, even if they can't beat them.

Later, a distant relative of Wang Yongqiang saw that the two children were fighting with others every day, and it was not a big deal that they were often beaten, their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen and injured, so they kindly took them to his private acquaintance to study.

But the two of them were so used to it that they barely managed to study for two years, but couldn't get in.

It happened to be a calamity year, and the relative with good family conditions was robbed by thieves and bandits, and the family was in decline, and the private school could not continue, so the two brothers returned to their hometown.

Soon, the famine became more and more serious, bandits and bandits were everywhere, and Wubao County was also affected. The frontier residents in northern Shaanxi rebelled because of hunger, and attacked Wubao County. Brother, also joined the Peasant Army.

Although Wang Yongqiang was young, he was able to fight bravely, read some characters, and was smart, so he was appreciated by the leaders. Soon, he was asked to lead a team of hundreds of people.

In the fifth year of Chongzhen, his leader was defeated by the army and surrendered. The leader then wrote a letter to recruit brother Wang Yongqiang. Seeing this, he finally accepted the recruitment and became a member of the Ming army.

By the ninth year of Chongzhen, Wang Yongqiang had been promoted to a general in Ningxia, Ming Dynasty, and fought for the imperial court in Shanxi and Shaanxi to conquer the peasant army.

This year, his mother was killed by fellow villager Wang Zhengzhi in his hometown.

Wang Zhengzhi was his fellow villager in Wubao, and he was also one of the twenty or so brothers who joined him in the Peasant Army at the beginning, but later they became enemies because of fighting for merit. After Wang Yongqiang was recruited, Wang Zhengzhi was still in the Peasant Army.

This time he went back to Wubao and killed Wang Yongqiang's mother. The angry Wang Yongqiang led his troops back to his hometown, but Wang Zhengzhi had already run away, so he had no choice but to dig Wang Zhengzhi's ancestral grave.

In the 15th year of Chongzhen, Wang Yongqiang served as a general in Yan'an and defended Yan'an City with his brother Yongzhen. Li Zicheng established Dashun in Xi'an and sent troops to attack.

Soon after, Li Zicheng was defeated in Shanhaiguan and went south. Li Guo waited behind the Northern Shaanxi Palace, and finally moved to Ningxia, Gansu, retreated to Hanzhong, and entered Jingxiang via Sichuan.

The enemy Wang Zhengzhi also surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and was later appointed as the governor of Yansui, stationed in Yulin, and became the immediate boss of the two brothers.

As soon as Jiang Guan rebelled, Wang Zhengzhi immediately mobilized Wang Yongzhen's brothers to send troops, just to kill someone with a borrowed knife, but he didn't know that Wang Yongqiang had been in secret for a long time, and had been in secret contact with Jiang Guan.

The brothers have a family camp of 3000 people under their hands, and they completely obey the orders of the brothers.

Wang Yongqiang asked his brother Yongzhen to stay behind, and led his own troops to Yulin. Then there was a dark night mutiny, Wang Zhengzhi was hacked, and Yulin was taken.

With [-] family members as the core, the two brothers quickly swept through northern Shaanxi, conquered [-] counties, killed the governor and general soldiers, prepared troops in Jingyuan, Song Congxin, the magistrate of Yan'an, captured Daotai King Xishun, and Li Fangzheng, the magistrate of Binzhou.

Yulin Daoist Sun Shishou and Luochuan Magistrate Zuo Shedou surrendered one after another.

Wang Yongqiang hung the seal of recruiting generals, founded the government and established teeth, and led the military by himself, but the civil administration taxes, money and food were all faked by Wang Jiaqin, the supervisor of the army.

One of the two attacked the city and plundered the land, and the other comforted the people.

Open warehouses to relieve victims, open prisons and release prisoners, and re-appoint officials at all levels in northern Shaanxi to restore order.

Wang Yongqiang joined forces with all parties to respond to the rebel army, and went north to attack Huamachi in Ningxia. People from all over the border also responded one after another, and then went south to Guanzhong to attack Pucheng.

General Liu Daying led thousands of troops to break through Jinsuo Pass, occupy Tongguan City, and reach Yaozhou. The rebel army of Wang Yongqiang's brothers shocked the whole Shaanxi.

The rebel armies in Qin and Jin provinces united into one.

For the Tartars at this time, this was almost a fatal backstab.

Meng Qiaofang, the trilateral governor of Xi'an, wrote 37 urgent help letters to Haoge and Wu Sangui in Hanzhong within one day, asking them to bring troops back to rescue.

At this time, Wang Yongqiang's forward had arrived in Pucheng, only a hundred miles away from Weinan, and only two hundred miles away from Xi'an.

But for Man Qing, this is not the worst news.

The bad news is that the regent Dorgon, known as the pillar of the country, suddenly died of illness in Beijing. The princes and princes of Beijing, Baylor, began to wrestle secretly around the core power of the center.

A huge power struggle has begun.

Shunzhi proclaimed Dorgon as Emperor Chengzong of the Qing Dynasty, and also named Azige as the auxiliary political uncle.Azige wanted an uncle before, but Dorgon refused. Now Shunzhi directly adds the title of uncle to both brothers.

But at the same time, an order was issued to order Azig to return to Taiyuan, and Duoduo moved the name of the town.

The reason why the two uncles were not allowed to return to Beijing was that the situation on the front line was critical, and everyone knew their actual intention, which was to keep the two northern brothers of Dorgon out of Beijing.

Naturally, the two refused, and each rushed back to Beijing with their troops, regardless of the situation in Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong, Henan, etc.

In this chaos.

Beijing also ordered Wu Sangui and Hauge in Hanzhong to return to Beijing and ask Wu Sangui to lead troops back to Shaanxi to suppress Wang Yongqiang.

Stay in Hanzhong with Li Guohan.

The purpose is still on the way.

Gansu rebelled again.

Gansu Hui General Mi Layin, Ding Guodong and others raised troops anyway, even Kegan, Liang, and Su states. This time their uprising was caused by the division of troops in the Shaanxi-Gansu camp not long ago.

The Shaanxi-Gansu camp divided the troops, and He Hongqi's generals formed the West Expedition Camp, and divided the troops to conquer the land of Hexi.

The Qing army did not have much strength in Longyou, and most of them were surrendered generals. After He Hongqi and others marched westward, they attacked cities and broke counties all the way. , Pan Yunteng, deputy general of Suzhou, Lin Weizao of Ganliang Dao, Zhang Yi of Xining Dao, etc. were defeated and killed.

Under this wave, Mi Layin, Ding Guodong and others were instigated to rebel, led an uprising, and launched a fierce attack on the Qing army in Gansu. As a result, the two troops fought from west to east, and the other swept from east to west, and attacked from east to west. , in all directions.

The Western Expeditionary Army broke through Longxi, killed Tong Zhi Zhao Chongxue, and county magistrate Zhao Zhong, conquered Lintao, Hezhou, Taozhou, Minzhou, and Weilanzhou, and the momentum was greatly improved.

The rule of the Tartars in Gansu was almost completely disintegrated, and many officials of the Tartars were either killed or captured, or abandoned the land and fled.

The Western Expeditionary Army broke through Lanzhou and took advantage of the victory to go to Qinghai.

The two armies joined forces at Datong and encircled Xining.

This Longyou uprising was not actually so fierce, but that He Hongqi and others had already revolted once before, and the attack on the Qing army in Gansu was weakened a lot. Now the Qing army in Gansu still has no generals and elite soldiers, and most of them are primitive Mingguan, Shunjiang, etc., took advantage of the opportunity of the Qing army in Hanzhong to attack Longyou.

How can those people resist, they are either defeated, surrendered or escaped.

And for this rebellion, the Han, Hui, Qiang and other peoples also responded one after another, and even Mi Layin supported a Ming clan Yan Yanwang to call on the army and the people.

Milayin and others rebelled against the Qing Dynasty. In the final analysis, it was because the Tartars had not really established their rule in Gansu, and all they used were demoted officials and generals.

The fuse of their rebellion this time was actually caused by patrolling Lin Weizao in Gansu who wanted to strictly punish the remnants of the trespassers. Lin Weizao was the nephew of Lin Rirui, the governor of Gansu in the Ming Dynasty. During the First Battle of Zhoucheng, after Lin Weizao surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he served as the Gansu branch patrol. After he came, he wanted to avenge his uncle, and insisted on tracking down the remaining gangsters and punishing them severely.

Mi Layin, Ding Guodong and others were also Gansu frontier generals in the Ming Dynasty who served under Lin Rirui, but later surrendered to Dashun and participated in the battle of Ganzhou.

Mi Layin was also a hereditary native official in Ganzhou, very prestigious among the Muslims, and originally very brave.

Originally, Mi Layin was like many officials and generals in Gansu. When Li Zicheng came, he surrendered, and when the Qing army came, he surrendered to the Qing. It doesn't matter who you are the emperor, I just continue to be my native official.

Lin Weizao insisted on pursuing the remnants of the traitors and avenging his uncle. Of course, Mi Layin and others were unwilling to sit and wait for death. As soon as the secret envoys sent by the court were provoked, they were immediately willing to fight anyway.

Lin Weizao, the source of the mutiny, was also captured and beheaded, which can be said to be his own fruit!

In a short time, the three places were in chaos.

A governor of Xuanda, a governor of Yansui and a governor of Gansu died, and three general soldiers died. There were countless other Taoists and prefects, and dozens of prefectures and counties were captured.

To add insult to injury for Manqing!
