Chapter 9: Gao Jie


Lu Zhenfei couldn't help but frown when he heard the word "Gao Jie".

Zhu Cixiang on the side looked calm, as if nothing had happened.

"Your Highness, this Gao Jie was defeated all the way to Huai'an.

I will not let him enter the city under any circumstances.

A few days ago, Liu Zeqing, the commander-in-chief of Shandong Province, also fled to Huai'an.

He wanted to enter the city, but he was scolded by me and detoured to Yangzhou in despair. " Lu Zhenfei thought for a moment and then cupped his hands at Zhu Cixiang.

Zhu Cixiang nodded slightly and said with a smile: "This matter of Huai'an Mansion should naturally be decided by Duke Haoyue."

Lu Zhenfei immediately understood that His Highness the Crown Prince did not want to get involved in this muddy water.

"I understand, I will send them away now."

Lu Zhenfei said happily.

"Wait a minute" Zhu Cixi waved his hand.

Lu Zhenfei was slightly startled and said in astonishment: "Your Highness" "Where does Lord Haoyue plan to send General Gao to station himself?"

"As long as it's not within the jurisdiction of Huai'an Prefecture, he can go anywhere.

Fengyang Prefecture, Luzhou Prefecture, Yangzhou Prefecture."

Lu Zhenfei's confidence was obviously not very strong, and his voice was as quiet as a mosquito when he spoke.

Zhu Cixiang sighed in his heart and said with emotion: "The troops led by General Gao are all defeated.

No matter where they go, it is difficult to maintain military discipline.

The world says that thieves are like combs and soldiers are like grates.

I really don't want to see this.

Something happens."

"Your Highness is so kind, I feel ashamed."

Lu Zhenfei immediately blushed.

Compared with His Royal Highness, he is indeed too petty.

After hearing Zhu Cixiang's words, Lu Zhenfei finally understood.

It turned out that what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said before about giving him full power to make the decision was just a show of words.

In fact, he had already made a calculation in his heart.

Lu Zhenfei didn't dare to think about Dong Gong's feelings anymore, so he simply opened the skylight and spoke frankly.

"I wonder if Your Highness has a perfect plan?"

Zhu Cixiang smiled slightly and said: "I dare not say that there is a perfect plan, but it can ensure that the people of Huai'an live in peace."

He paused for a moment, then moved his lips and said, "Let the General Military Headquarters be stationed outside Huai'an City, and the military pay will follow the rules of guest troops."

"Your Highness" Hearing this, Lu Zhenfei looked worried and said: "Gaojie's army is defeated, how can we follow the example of the guest army?"

He thought that if he really followed the example of the guest army, the rations for Gao Jie's tens of thousands of horses would have to be provided by Huai'an Prefecture.

It would cost a lot for people to eat horse chews for a day.

It would be okay if the time was short, but if the time was long, he wouldn't be able to bear it

.

"

Zhu Cixiang waved his hand and pressed down, signaling Lu Zhenfei not to get excited.

"Gu dare to promise to Duke Haoyue that in as little as ten days and at most half a month, the General Military Department can be transferred out of Huai'an Mansion."

Lu Zhenfei's Adam's apple twitched slightly, and he hesitated for a long time before sighing: "I obey your Majesty's decree."

Zhu Cixi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If Lu Zhenfei refuses to obey even to the point of death, there is nothing he, the crown prince, can do.

In fact, when he asked Lu Zhenfei to restrain Gao Jie's tribe in Huai'an Mansion, he was not simply afraid that Gao Jie's tribe would harm and rob the people.

Historically, among the four towns in Jiangbei of the Nanming Dynasty, Gao Jie and Liu Zeqing were defeated generals who fled.

Huang Degong was originally stationed in Luzhou, and Liu Liangzuo was originally stationed in Zhengyang, Henan.

They were invited by Ma Shiying to station in South Zhili.

Among the four towns, Gao Jie and Liu Zeqing belong to the type of bereaved dogs.

If they hadn't taken advantage of the situation and supported Zhu Yousong, the King of Fortune, it would have been impossible for them to be granted the title of Uncle.

Liu Zeqing has already gone to Yangzhou, and Gao Jie has no place to station himself.

At this time, if Zhu Cihong can show him some kindness and let him stay in Huai'an, Gao Jie will be somewhat grateful.

Zhu Cixiang was not afraid that Gao Jie would become a separatist warlord by virtue of his support.

After all, he is the crown prince and the perfect candidate to inherit the throne.

The reason why the four towns were able to rise to prominence by supporting Li Hongguang was because Zhu Yousong did not have an absolute advantage over the other vassal kings.

King Lu and King Gui both had opportunities.

As long as Zhu Cixiang is in Nanjing, he will definitely succeed to the throne.

Anyone who dares to raise objections is truly committing treason.

Therefore, Gao Jie's support for Zhu Cixiang's succession to the imperial throne was just the icing on the cake.

Zhu Cixiang had no need to worry that he would become his own town like in history.

To be honest, Zhu Cixi really took a liking to Gao Jie's army.

Although this army was defeated, it still had a certain fighting capacity because it often fought against bandits.

In addition, Gao Jie himself is a fierce general.

If he can be conquered, it will be a big help.

If Gao Jie is captured early, it will also stop other vassal kings from thinking.

After all, there were several vassal princes temporarily staying in Huai'an Mansion, among them was King Fu Zhu Yousong.

Zhu Cixi not only occupies the orthodoxy, but also possesses strength.

In troubled times, strength is king.

Gao Jie's own experience is quite legendary.

He is from Mizhi County, Shaanxi Province, and is a fellow villager of Li Zicheng.

After Li Zicheng followed Gao Yingxiang in rebellion, he also followed suit.

Because of his bravery in battle, Gao Jie won Li Zicheng's trust and once achieved the position of vanguard general.

But Gao Jie is not a fuel-efficient lamp either.

At that time, Li Zicheng's concubine Xing was responsible for the distribution of supplies in the old camp, involving military rations and weapons.

Gao Jie regularly went to Xing to get supplies.

Over time, Gao Jie and Xing got to know each other and had an affair.

They were worried that the matter would be exposed and Li Zicheng would liquidate them, so they simply surrendered to the army without doing anything else.

Hong Chengchou transferred Gao Jie's subordinates to He Renlong with a wave of his hand.

Gao Jie also fully demonstrated the bachelor's spirit.

He followed He Renlong to kill the bandits, and soon he was promoted.

Because he cuckolded Li Zicheng, it was impossible for him to surrender to Li Zicheng again.

As for reducing the Qing Dynasty, naturally there is not much possibility.

Although Gao Jie was a bit violent, he still had basic national integrity.

Hauge once tempted him to surrender, claiming that the big one is the king, the small one is the candidate, and the king of the world.

"Gao Jie ignored it at all.

It can be said that Gao Jie is firmly tied to the big ship of Ming Dynasty.

In the original history, Gao Jie even led troops to the north.

If he had not been trapped and killed by Xu Dingguo in Suizhou, and the Southern Ming Northern Expedition was ruined, the situation in the entire Southern Ming Dynasty might have been different.

The strongest troops among the four towns were Huang Degong and Gao Jie.

Coincidentally, they were also the most loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

Gao Jie died in the Suizhou Incident, and Huang Degong fought until the last moment when the Qing army marched southward, and was killed by his subordinates.

As for Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zeqing and others, they were not only tyrannical, but also unjust and unjust.

After the Qing troops went south, they immediately surrendered and refused to even make a show of resistance.

Now that the four towns have not yet been established, Zhu Cixiang naturally wants to make arrangements early.

In his opinion, loyal ministers like Lu Zhenfei and Qin Gongming should naturally rely on them, and people like Huang Degong and Gao Jie should also be used skillfully.

If these powerful generals can be used in the right place, they will also be a big help to Daming.

Zhu Cixiang never wanted to see the original scene of the Qing army going south and massacring the city, so he wanted to make full use of every bit of power he could. s: Although Gao Jie was a bandit, he still had national righteousness.

At least he dared to go north to conquer the Qing Dynasty.

Among the four towns, he could be classified as the same as Huang Degong, and he was much better than Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo
