"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Win! Win..."
Gao Yushun, eunuch Bingbi of the Nandu East Palace, rushed to the palace in a hurry. He was still no less than twenty steps away from his master, and he started to announce the good news with his neck stretched out.
After moving to Nandu, Chongzhen also copied the system from the capital and re-established the Dongchang. With the addition of the Jin Yiwei who originally stayed in Nandu, he also had his own minions at the foothold.
For this reason, Dong Lin and other gangs were criticized, saying that the emperor's reuse of factory guards must be an act of ignorance and even the destruction of the country. This example must never be repeated.
However, I thought that my treacherous son relied on the advantage of the factory guard to suppress many nobles when he founded the country, and he collected enough silver in a short period of time.
Chongzhen became more and more disgusted with those people with ulterior motives. Since he was new to Nandu, he chose to remain silent for the time being.
Nandu is Donglin's territory, it can even be said to be his nest. No one can stand the commotion every day. If Donglin is not dealt with, he has to find a way to appease him.
Regarding these nonsense, Chongzhen couldn't think of any good solution for a while. The only thing he could do was to read the bound volume sent by a certain villain.
This strategy is very simple. It is to use the position of the cabinet or even the chief minister to whet Dong Lin's appetite and divert the attention of Dong Lin and other gangs.
At this time, Chongzhen couldn't help but think of the suggestion that Nizi mentioned to him when he was in the capital, to let people from Donglin be the first assistant. Chongzhen was quite resistant to this.
The reason is that the former chief minister of Donglin and even the officials of the six ministries resisted the imperial court's collection of commercial taxes and completely became the lackeys of Jiangnan merchants.
Without the deliberate actions of Dong Lin and other gangs, how could the imperial court collect three wages from farmers year after year, thus triggering a large-scale rebellion?
Even other officials were the same. Most of them were influenced by Donglin, which directly led to many subsequent tragedies. At least in Chongzhen's heart, Donglin had become a scum that brought disaster to the country and the people.
If the "Edict of Sin" was issued under compulsion, then tracing back to the source, Donglin was the main cause of the decline of the Ming Dynasty. It is understandable that the emperor's brother sent Wei Zhongxian to suppress Donglin back then, and it was an extremely correct move.
Regarding Wei Zhongxian, Chongzhen couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Although this servant was domineering, he was still very loyal to the emperor's brother. In terms of tax collection, he was much better than most court officials.
However, the dead cannot be resurrected, and it is too difficult to find a chamberlain who can do great things like Wei Zhongxian. It is impossible to choose from the several chamberlains who followed him south.
For the current plan, we can only maintain the current situation first and then make long-term plans.
Fortunately, the Nandu Xungui's home was confiscated, and with the millions of taels of silver brought from the capital, the internal funds were enough to spend in a short period of time.
Chongzhen had not yet taken a fancy to the small amount of money in the accounts of the Nandu Household Department. The money for running the court should be provided by the Department of Household Affairs, and he did not intend to provide any more money from internal funds.
Because you don’t know if you don’t copy it, and you will be shocked if you copy it. The Duke of the Xu family alone contributed millions of taels of silver, along with countless properties, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
Gao Yushun, who was in charge of leading the team, acted very effectively in this operation, and his performance made Chongzhen extremely satisfied, so he was ordered to take charge of the resettled East Factory.
"Speak clearly! Don't let it start and end!"
Chongzhen was worried about the siege of the capital. He had previously sent the chief military officer Song Ji to lead 2,000 Yongwei battalion soldiers and 5,000 other troops to rush north for reinforcements.
Although the military strength was somewhat dwarfed by the size of the Donglu troops who went south, it was the most that Chongzhen could produce in a short period of time.
Chongzhen was really not sure whether he could rescue the capital.
On the one hand, he was still angry at the traitor for driving him to Nandu, but on the other hand, he did not want Donglu to succeed.
If the capital is captured by the Donglu, I am afraid that the Donglu will move south on a large scale next, and they may also attack the Huaihe River along the canal.
If the defense line between the Huaihe River and the Huaihe River cannot be maintained, the southern capital, which lacks the defense of the defenders, will certainly not be protected. By then, it will be difficult to even preserve the situation in the Song Dynasty.
It has always been said that to defend the river, you must defend the Huaihe River, but there are no defenders on the Huaihe River defense line. If you want to ensure safety, you can only deploy Hong Chengchou's troops who are suppressing the invaders.
The order for Hong Chengchou to return reinforcements as soon as possible has been sent out, but Chongzhen was not sure whether this powerful minister could obey him.
Both Hong Chengchou's troops and Sun Chuanting's men and horses were originally assigned to the traitor to take charge, which naturally included the annual salary and food.
Chongzhen wanted to win over Hong Chengchou to do his bidding, but he didn't have much money in his pocket. Hong Chengchou had more than 100,000 troops in his hands, which was a lot of expenses for a year.
We can only block the current hole first. Whether Hong Chengchou sends troops or not, Song Jijun must lead his troops to Jifu as soon as possible.
Naturally, the government and the public are not optimistic about using 7,000 people to relieve the siege of the capital...
In view of what the prince did after supervising the country, the civil servants certainly hoped that this young prince, who imitated Xia Jie and Shang Zhou, would die in the rebellion.
Then everyone can report to Emperor Chongzhen and make the fifth prince born to Concubine Tian the prince. This is the wisest move.
To rashly mention deposing the crown prince is to disturb the foundation of the Yao Kingdom. This is a taboo. It was because of this that there was a big commotion, and it is still unforgettable by the government and the public.
I wanted to think about it in my heart, but no one would tell me about it. Once you say it, no one will help you, and you can only admit your misfortune.
In the future, the great treasure from the north will be enthroned, and I am afraid that the end of the merchants in the south of the Yangtze River is coming.
For the sake of money, you have to fight to the end, but there is still a lot of time, so there is no need to rush.
As a result, a very interesting scene occurred in Nandu. The emperor did not want the prince to die, but the ministers did the opposite.
But the actual situation is that it is impossible for seven thousand troops to relieve the siege of the capital, not even the Yongwei Battalion can do it.
Not to mention the large number of decadent Nandu garrison mixed in. These people didn't want to fight at all and were as afraid of the enemy as tigers.
Chongzhen was so anxious that he couldn't even eat. Although Concubine Tian had comforted her many times, Chongzhen still felt on pins and needles and couldn't sleep or eat well.
If the capital was captured by the Donglu, it would be extremely difficult for Master Wang to take it back.
Once Jifu is lost, can the troops in Liaoxi continue to hold on?
What if this part of the defenders surrendered to Donglu again?
After much deliberation, Chongzhen issued another order to mobilize more troops from Fengyang.
With 10,000 people, Chongzhen was already trying his best. If there were any more, he would be beyond his capabilities.
"Your Majesty! Capital City! We won!"
"Huh? Seriously?"
"This is a battle report!"
Chongzhen jumped up from his chair and slapped Gao Yushun, not believing the news at all.
Isn't Donglu very strong?
Having defeated Master Wang many times, how could he be defeated by the traitor this time?
In order to identify the authenticity of the news, Chongzhen hurriedly opened the battle report and began to read it word by word.
This battle report was written by Li Jizhou, the eunuch of the East Palace Bingbi. If it had been replaced by that traitor, I'm afraid the handwriting would be ugly.
It is written in great detail, from the dispatch of troops to the defeat of Donglu, in chronological order, and a clear introduction to the future.
"Good! Good! Very good!"
In view of the fact that although the traitor had bad words and deeds and bad moral character, he rarely told lies, Chongzhen believed 50% of the contents of the battle report.
The only deviation is that it can actually kill tens of thousands of enemies. Is this too much?
Even Zu Dashou and even Yuan Chonghuan did not dare to produce such results. Is it too exaggerated?
According to common sense, if he wanted to kill 30,000 enemies, he would probably have to mobilize 300,000 troops, or even more, to do it.
The total number of garrison guards in the capital was only 100,000, but with just these few men, the traitor was able to kill more than 30,000 enemies...
If he kills 3,040 enemies, maybe he can still do it if he works hard.
However, it is somewhat unbelievable that the number of nearly 34,000 people mentioned in the battle was nearly 34,000, even though it included many servants who surrendered to Donglu.
Maybe it includes those coated slaves, and that's the only way it's reasonable.
Since Jifu had already rescued himself, Chongzhen no longer wanted to argue with the traitor.
Anyway, there is no need to spend money to reward the soldiers of the three armies. Since they can achieve a great victory, just let him do whatever he wants.
Thirty-four thousand!
This is a great achievement!
What should I do?
Do you want to worship your ancestors first?
At least he must inform his grandfather, father, and imperial brother. After all, during the Wanli period, the Donglu rebelled.
"Your Majesty, there are photos to prove it!"
Gao Yushun presented another pile of heavy photos, because they were all on copper plate photo paper and had been framed in advance.
Chongzhen was not afraid of the extremely ferocious corpse and even the head of Donglu above, but was very satisfied.
This is what he wants to see. Only when Donglu dies can Daming get better.
The more Donglu die, the better the Ming Dynasty will be!
In this regard, the father and son have already reached a confession...
"Very good! There is hope for the Ming Dynasty and ZTE!"
After seeing it, Chongzhen was convinced. Although there were no physical objects, such as the prisoners sent, the best evidence was the photos.
Not only did they take photos of dead people, but also some photos of living people, such as the captured Donglu generals, Ye Chen, Chen Tai, Meng Qiaofang, etc.
To be able to capture so many generals in one fell swoop is really not easy when you think about it, but it is gratifying. It can be regarded as the first great victory since the Wanli period.
However, Chongzhen was a little dissatisfied with the rebellion of Xu Dingguo's troops. He thought that Xu Dingguo should have been executed for his disadvantages in the battle, but it was only later that someone helped him, which caused such trouble.
But the flaws do not hide the flaws. Even if Xu Dingguo surrenders to the Qing Dynasty, or even obtains the status of King Sanshun, it will not change the outcome of the battle.
The battle report finally listed a bunch of Donglu Niulu and above generals who were either killed or captured, which made Chongzhen more and more convinced.
"Your Majesty, I also sent people to deliver the captured Donglu flags, armors and weapons! Due to the epidemic, the prisoners did not have..."
Gao Yushun was worried that the epidemic would be introduced to Nandu, but he understood the reason for the prince's arrangement.
The epidemic is no joke. It can really kill people. It was suppressed in the capital only under the strict orders of the prince.
"No problem! No problem! Bring it in and let me take a look!"
Being able to repel the Donglu army made Chongzhen Longyan very happy, and other trivial matters were insignificant.
Gao Yushun waved his hand, and several chamberlains carried in several boxes of loot. These items had been sterilized and there was no danger at all as long as they were not touched with their own hands.
"Good! Excellent!"
Chongzhen watched and praised, thinking that in order to seize such items, Wang Shi had really lost his troops before.
In order to defeat the Donglu, this traitor even used smallpox, which can be described as extremely vicious.
However, since Taiji, the leader of the captives, has become more and more arrogant, it is time for the traitor to deal with him. This can be regarded as meeting his opponent.
This time it would be better to beat the captive leader until he loses his spirit, or even catches smallpox, and then dies in depression after leaving seclusion.
In his heart, Chongzhen desperately hoped that Huang Taiji would die suddenly, so that the Donglu would be in chaos.
It is possible that Master Wang could take the opportunity to regain the lost territory outside the customs, but it is just an expectation.
"Where are Song Ji and other departments?"
"Your Majesty, you are returning south!"
"good!"
At present, as long as he can relieve the siege of the capital without losing his own troops, that is the best result for Chongzhen.
Chongzhen also planned to use the battle report to make a fuss, at least taking the opportunity to suppress the treacherous Xiaoxiao who was working against him openly and secretly in both the government and the public.
Chongzhen didn't know what these people were thinking, but because he lacked major generals, he was not completely sure about how to relieve the siege of the capital.
Now that we have achieved a great victory, we can sit back and watch the battle between tigers and tigers.
Aren’t you criticizing the shortcomings of the Prince’s new policy every day?
That traitor has already achieved an unprecedented victory, let’s see how you respond!
Anyone who dares not to believe it can go north and have a look.
If it is fake, then you can take advantage of the situation and participate in the battle.
If it were true, wouldn't it be better to be punished by that traitor?
Chongzhen looked down upon the traitor's many abilities in other aspects.
But he was quite capable of rectifying stubborn officials.
Now that he could gain a firm foothold in Nandu and maintain the balance between the government and the opposition, Chongzhen more or less copied some of the tricks of the traitor.
××××××××××× (The remaining 400 words will be filled in tomorrow, please forgive me!)
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Win! Win..."
Gao Yushun, eunuch Bingbi of the Nandu East Palace, ran to the palace in a hurry. He was still no less than twenty steps away from his master, and he started to announce the good news with his neck stretched out.
After moving to Nandu, Chongzhen also copied the system in the capital and re-established the Dongchang. Together with the Jin Yiwei who originally stayed in Nandu, he also had his own minions at the foothold.
For this reason, Dong Lin and other gangs were accused, saying that the emperor's reuse of factory guards must be an act of ignorance and even the destruction of the country. This example must never be repeated.
However, I thought that when I founded the country, my traitorous son relied on his advantage as a factory guard to forcibly suppress many nobles and collected enough silver coins in a short period of time.
Chongzhen became more and more disgusted with those people with ulterior motives. Since he was new to Nandu, he chose to remain silent for the time being.
Nandu is Donglin's territory, it can even be said to be his nest. No one can stand the commotion every day. If Donglin is not dealt with, he has to find a way to appease him.
