News of the Nanguan Guard Battle reached the capital, and the whole government was in an uproar.
Since the founding of the slave rebellion, there has not been such a great victory.
Although Su Polu did not come from the imperial examination, and although Su Polu did not have a prominent background, this could not affect his performance, especially Su Polu. But Emperor Tianqi had just appointed Su Polu as General Polu, and there was news immediately. Completely wiped out 3,000 Jiannu troops.
What does this mean? It shows that the emperor is wise and wise.
Especially now that the court is controlled by Wei Zhongxian, how could Wei Zhongxian let go of this opportunity to flatter His Majesty?
So in less than a day, the entire capital knew the news that Su Polu had destroyed Jiannu.
For a time, everyone in the capital knew about Su Polu.
Emperor Tianqi was also very happy after receiving the news. With a stroke of his pen, he asked the military department to quickly complete the equipment for Su Polu.
How much money was spent on the Liaodong battlefield and what was the result?
Su Polu didn't ask for a penny from me, so he beat Jiannu until his nose was black and his face was swollen.
Can we not win over such people?
As for the 60,000 kilograms of gunpowder and 20,000 landmines consumed, what do they count? Ming Dynasty really has no shortage of this stuff.
With the strong support of Emperor Tianqi and the eunuch party, Su Polu's power developed rapidly.
In just one year, Su Polu had 30,000 elite men under his command. There are even 5 red cannons, the most important weapon of the Ming Dynasty.
During this period, he fought against Jiannu many times. Win more and lose less. The slaves were disturbed and had no peace.
In the first month of the sixth year of the Apocalypse (1626), the slave chieftain Nurhachi, who could not bear it anymore, led the Jin army to attack Nanguan.
The two-gun battle lasted for more than half a month, and finally the slave chief was wounded by the red cannon at Nanguan Pass, and Jiannu evacuated hastily.
In order to avoid being ambushed by Jiannu, Su Polu did not send troops to attack.
Not long after, the slave chief died of serious injuries. Because Huang Taiji had lost 3,000 gold elites in the hands of Su Polu before, although he escaped by chance, he was severely punished by the slave chief and his strength was greatly damaged. The position of the queen Han Dynasty was taken over by Daishan.
In May, an explosion occurred at the Wanggong Factory in Beijing. Since Su Polu had just emptied the Wanggong Factory's gunpowder magazine in his plan to regain Jinzhou, the damage caused was not great.
In July of the same year, Jinzhou returned to the embrace of the Ming Dynasty.
In the first month of the seventh year of Tianqi, Su Polu fought with Jiannu in Jinzhou for a month. Both sides suffered heavy losses. Dai Shan saw that he could not win Jinzhou. Together with Sun Chengzong, he took the opportunity to regain Guangning. In order to avoid being attacked by the Ming army, Daishan had to order a retreat.
In August of the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1627), Zhu Youxiao, accompanied by Hakka, Wei Zhongxian and others, went for a boat trip to Xiyuan. I was drinking on a large boat in the shallow water north of the bridge and unfortunately fell into the water.
The root cause of the disease has been found, many treatments have failed, and the body is getting worse and worse. Shangshu Huo Weihua offered an "elixir" called "Linglu Drink", which eventually caused Emperor Tianqi to become bedridden.
On the twelfth day of August, Zhu Youxiao summoned the cabinet ministers and ministers of science and education in Qianqing Palace, and issued an edict saying that Wei Zhongxian and Wang Tiqian were loyal to the emperor and could be used to discuss national affairs. He also named Wei Zhongxian's nephew Wei Liangdong the Marquis of Dong'an.
Zhu Youxiao had a premonition that his days were short, so he summoned King Zhu Youjian into his bedroom and said, "Come, my brother will be Yao and Shun." He appointed Zhu Youjian as his successor.
Although Zhu Youjian knew that Emperor Tianqi would not live long, he was still very sad.
On August Yi Mao (22nd), Emperor Tianqi Zhu Youxiao died in Qianqing Palace.
Before his death, he specifically told Zhu Youjian that Wei Zhongxian "can plan for great things if he is careful and loyal."
August Dingsi (24th) Zhu Youjian ascended the throne, with the reign title Chongzhen.

Strong, too strong, Zhu Youjian sighed in his heart.
"I have System Meishan in my hands. No matter how strong you are as a slave, you will not be able to escape the path of destruction."
"Wang Chengen, go and call Wei Zhongxian and Li Zhong." In the Changshou Palace, Zhu Youjian sat on a chair and ordered to Wang Chengen.
"As you command, Your Majesty."
At this moment, Wei Zhongxian is no longer as majestic as before, and it can be said that his heart is full of worries.
Once the emperor and his courtiers were favored by Emperor Tianqi, they would be unpopular with the next emperor.
After all, the ministers of the previous dynasty had too much power. If they were not dealt with, how could the emperor be happy?
What emperor wants to be influenced by others?
Ordinary courtiers are fine, they have been dismissed, maybe the emperor will call you back one day.
But once the head of the eunuch, especially the head of the eunuch with all the power, loses power, it means complete ruin.
Although the new emperor's own relationship is not bad, this does not mean that the new emperor will reuse him. On the contrary, it is very likely to get rid of him as soon as possible.
After hearing the emperor's announcement of his visit, Wei Zhongxian put aside his doubts, quickly packed up, and immediately headed to the Longevity Palace.
Half an hour later, Wei Zhongxian and Li Zhong entered the longevity palace one after another.
"Wei Daban, my eldest brother once told me before he passed away that Wei Daban was loyal and capable of great things. I wonder if Wei Daban wants to be famous in history like the Sanbao eunuch (Zheng He)? Or does he want to be infamous for thousands of years like Liu Jin?"
