What? Is this accurate? Why?
Song Shilie was immediately stunned. The emperor knew that Jin Duoduo had no good intentions, so how could he be so sure? How could Daming do this? Ming Dynasty is a kingdom of heaven, how can we tolerate such a treacherous barbarian country that seizes people?
"Your Majesty, no!" Song Shilie shouted loudly, with a cry in his voice, "Your Majesty, Jin Duoduo has a disloyal heart. If you allow him to seize North Korea today, he will definitely rebel in Liaodong in the future. Please, Your Majesty Think twice!”
Zhu Cixiang nodded and said: "Mr. Song, don't be anxious. I also know what Jin Duoduo is thinking..." He glanced at Jin Lanzhu and Su Ganglin and lowered his voice, "But I can't take action to deal with Liaodong now. For the time being, I can only indulge him. When I take Beijing and pacify the north and south of Yanshan, I will naturally rebuild Liaoyang Province!"
Jin Lanzhu and Su Ganglin's eyes were wandering. Emperor Zhu was talking about rebuilding Liaoyang Province, not abolishing the entire Andong Protectorate. The current area under the jurisdiction of the Andong Protectorate is very large, and the situation within the jurisdiction is also very complicated. Only the Liaodong Peninsula, the Western Liaoning Corridor, and the middle and lower reaches of the Liao River are suitable for the establishment of a province.
For the time being, other places can only establish festival towns and protective guards, integrate military and political affairs, and grant heavy powers to local governors...
Zhu Cixiang said loudly: "When the time comes, once Jin Duoduo confronts the heavenly soldiers, I will definitely capture him. If Jin Erbo participates in the rebellion, then I will also kill my relatives, kill the Jin family, and restore the Li Dynasty."
Killing relatives for righteousness? What does this mean? Isn't Jinrbo a Tatar? How did he become your relative?
Song Shilie was stunned after hearing this, and looked up at Zhu Cihong. Jin Lanzhu, who was standing next to him, reminded Song Shilie with a smile, "Mr. Song, the sister of the King of Korea is Dongzhu Gege, and she is now His Majesty's talent... So King Jin is the uncle of the Ming Dynasty."
Isn't he just a talented person... The talented person's brother is also considered the uncle of the state? Song Shilie was still a little confused. He knew that Cai Ren's status in the Ming court was not high.
Zhu Cihong smiled and said: "Jin Lanzhu, go back and tell your father that if he does anything disobedient, I will not spare him lightly for Dongzhu!
In addition, Li Hao has surrendered the country. You can no longer harm him. Let him retire in Nanjing! "
Jin Lanzhu said quickly: "I will definitely convey your Majesty's words to my father, and please rest assured that my father will not harm Li Hao."
Zhu Cixiang waved his hand and said with a smile: "That's good, then go back quickly... By the way, your sister Dongzhu just gave birth and gave birth to a girl for me!"
Jin Lanzhu felt a little disappointed, but her face was still full of joy: "I wish your Majesty the best!"
Seeing Zhu Cixiang's beaming smile, Song Shilie knew that there was no way to persuade the Ming Dynasty and Zhongxing emperor to restore the rule of the Li Dynasty in Korea for the time being, so he had to resign in tears, and then went to Nanjing to wait to meet with the lost Li Hao to discuss the restoration of the country. .....
And Jin Lanzhu and Su Ganglin didn't want to stay under the city walls of Beijing for even a quarter of an hour. This place looked so sad! So after completing the mission, he left immediately.
A few days after the three of them left, Jin Dongzhu, who had just finished confinement, went north to Tongzhou to reunite with Emperor Zhu, accompanied by Princess Ajige of Jianning and the slave Kong Sizhen.
Zhu Cixiang summoned the three of them to go north, of course, not entirely for the house curtain matter, but to capture Beijing as early as possible.
The siege of Beijing City has lasted for nearly two months - it seems like a long time, but building a fortress these days is time-consuming. The method Emperor Zhu is using now is the "parallel siege method", which is to dig trenches around the bastion in circles, and finally dig out trenches that can be parallel to the solid edge of the bastion and very close to each other. .
In this way, small mortars and grenadiers can be placed in the trenches to kill and injure the defenders through shelling and bombing.
Once the parallel trenches are completed, the first layer of defense of the Beijing bastion will be quickly breached.
But the problem is, this damn Beijing Bastion has three layers of internal and external defense! After breaking the outer layer, there is an Imperial City Bastion inside, breaking the Imperial City Bastion, and there is also a Meishan Fortress.
This needs to be fought layer by layer using parallel siege methods, shouldn't it take a year?
Now there are nearly 250,000 siege troops gathered outside Beijing! Although the momentum is astonishing, enough to show the might of the Emperor of Heaven, the consumption is also astonishing!
The food rations consumed alone amount to hundreds of thousands of kilograms every day, plus the consumption of livestock, 1.2 million kilograms (20,000 shi) cannot stop it!
If the Battle of Beijing lasted for a year, more than 7 million shi would have been consumed just for food rations and horse feed. Fortunately, the sea transportation at Dagukou, the Wei River and the canal have been opened, and the Ming Dynasty's shipping capacity has increased in the past ten years. Quickly, otherwise these more than seven million stones alone could drag down the Ming court to death.
But it’s always a good thing to capture Beijing a few months earlier, right?
...
"This humble servant bows to the Lord Long Live the Lord."
In Tongzhou City, which had long been razed to the ground by Shang Kexi's soldiers, in the golden-domed imperial tent, a woman who claimed to be a humble servant was kowtowing to Emperor Zhu.
"Sizhen, raise your head and let me take a look." Zhu Cixang put down a memorial from the Kingdom of Siam that was rushed six hundred miles away from the Generalissimo's Office (the content of the memorial was to report that Burma was suddenly attacked by its suzerain, the Dashun Dynasty). attack), and then looked at Kong Sizhen with a smile.
When Kong Sizhen heard this, he immediately raised his head and chest, looked at Emperor Zhu with a smile, and he was very generous.
Zhu Cixiang smiled and said: "Sizhen, I have a chance to give you a chance to make meritorious service." He paused, "Your brother Kong Tingxun is in Beijing now, leading troops to help Fulin defend the city!"
Kong Sizhen immediately stopped smiling and said, "Does Long Live Master want me to write a letter to persuade him to submit to the Ming Dynasty?"
"No," Zhu Cixiang shook his head, "There are too many people who want to submit to the Ming Dynasty now. Why should your brother submit? He is Kong Youde's son, and he was also the king of Dingnan. His sins are so serious! How can you submit without atonement first? ?”
"I wonder how Long Live Master wants him to atone for his sins?"
Zhu Cixi smiled and said: "It's simple, hand over Fulin... life or death! If he feels that he is not sure, just go and get Shang Kexi. Don't go to Geng Zhongming, Geng Zhongming cannot be spared! In Beijing city The only traitor I can spare except Kong Tingxun is Shang Kexi. Because Kong Tingxun has you, and Shang Kexi’s father and brother are loyal martyrs of the Ming Dynasty, he was also forced to surrender to the enemy, so I can be lenient. As long as I can hand over Fulin, I will They were appointed as Duogan Jiedu envoys and Duogan Jiedu deputy envoys, and they were also sent to lead troops to fight against Sichuan occupied by rogue bandits. After Sichuan was captured, the territory that originally belonged to Duogan Dusi was given to them.
Although Duogan is not a wealthy place, the advantage of being poor is that no one cares about a poor place, so that it can be ruled for generations!
Sizhen, if this thing is going to happen, you will also have merit... Then you will no longer be a humble maid, please be my servant! "
The chosen servant is much more advanced than the humble servant! Moreover, Emperor Zhu never favored palace maids, so Kong Sizhen would have a better future only if she became a chosen attendant first!
...
"Long live Lord, are you looking for us?"
"Long live brother, Ajige is polite...
The humble maid Kong Sizhen finished writing the autographed letter to Shang Kexi and left happily. Jin Dongzhu came with Ajige. Kim Dong-joo just gave birth and is now a bit rounded, but still very attractive. And Ajige has grown into a graceful figure, just like a flower waiting to be picked, ready to bloom... She is almost old enough, she just needs to be raised!
"Sit, sit." Zhu Cixiang smiled, "I came to you to save the life of Fulin's rebellious son... You don't want Welfare to die at a young age, right?"
"Don't want to, don't want to..." Ajige shook his head repeatedly. Fulin was her biological brother!
Jin Dongzhu smiled and said nothing, just looked at Emperor Zhu quietly. She is much smarter than that stupid girl Ajige, and Zhu Cixiang's thoughts really can't be hidden from her. But she would not fail to cooperate with Zhu Cihong... Fulin was not her biological brother, and Dorgon's death always seemed a little strange to her!
