In the battle of Fort Xianbelia, Wang Zhizheng mobilized 60,000 troops, wiped out more than 10,000 people under the Zhenglan Banner of Mang Gurtai, fled back to the remnants of Shengjing, and was executed by Huang Taiji for the crime of rebellion, and the commander Mang Gurtai was also forced to commit suicide!

Then Wang Zhizheng besieged Xianbeilia with his regiments, besieged the city and was lacking, and intended to make the commander Duoduo withdraw his troops, and as soon as Duoduo withdrew his troops, Wang Zhizheng easily took down Xianbeilia Fort, which was the transit point for Houjin to enter the Kouxi Peak.

Controlling the Fort of Xianbelia is equivalent to wedged a nail into the Great Wall, Wang Zhizheng's footsteps did not stop, and he directly waved his army to the east and began to use troops against the Mongolian Lin Dan Khan!

He was ready to make peace with the Mongols.

At this time, the court's ministers began to attack Wang Zhizheng on a large scale, thinking that it was time to win over Mongolia, but Wang Zhizheng waved his army to attack Mongolia, didn't this force Mongolia to take refuge in Houjin?

Emperor Chongzhen listened to the opinion of the cabinet and felt justified, and immediately sent Chen Zilong to Xifengkou to question Wang Zhizheng.

Wang Zhizheng was dispatching troops and horses at Xifengkou, and Lu Xiangsheng and Cao Bianjiao had just returned from the front line and reported killing more than 10,000 Mongolian iron horsemen.

Chen Zilong told the affairs of Beijing and Zhongzhong, and he smiled calmly and said: "What do the Chinese courtiers know? Since ancient times, there has only been peace negotiation, where is there a peace negotiation, if you want to negotiate peace with the Mongolian Lin Dan Khan, you can only promote peace by fighting!"

Chen Zilong asked: "Teacher, now the emperor is also beginning to doubt whether there is a problem with your strategy, but I am afraid that there is no way to explain it to the emperor!"

Wang Zhizheng took a sip of tea and said: "I remember Yuan Chonghuan told me that if you want to besiege Jianzhou, you must bring Mongolia back under your command, and I agree with this, the Chinese courtiers of the DPRK do not understand the situation, and treat Mongolia, a treacherous enemy, and only want to reconcile through negotiations, which is equivalent to playing the piano to the cow.

Chen Zilong nodded, poured tea for Wang Zhizheng and said: "Teacher, Zhengbai Banner entered the pass and plundered, as a result, more than 10,000 people were wiped out, Zhenglan Banner entered Kou Xianbeilia, and was besieged by the teacher to help and annihilated, and the Eight Banners were taken off by you and handed over to the flag, at this time, I think Jianzhou should be able to win over Lin Dan Khan, right? If we fight and Lin Dan Khan surrenders to Jianzhou, wouldn't it be even worse?"

Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly and said: "Jianzhou famine, 60,000 people starved to death, if he didn't bring troops to plunder, wouldn't his soldiers and civilians of the Eight Banners be starved to death? Now that the Kouluo Road in Xifengkou has been blocked by us, they can only pass farther away, so they are eager to conquer Mongolia, so that they can open more gaps in the northern front to enter the customs! Negotiate peace, but the problem cannot be solved, I guess Huang Taiji should also use troops against Lin Dan Khan! Whoever fights the Mongols fiercely, Lin Dan will take refuge in whom!"

Chen Zilong pondered for a moment and asked: "The students think that if they subdue Mongolia, Jianzhou will be honest, and if Kou Luo fails, they will find a way to negotiate peace with us." Through border trade, sell Liaodong specialties in exchange for daily necessities, grain and fruits!"

Wang Zhizheng nodded and praised: "You are very smart. We have subdued Lin Dan Khan, Huang Taiji will inevitably have a truce, this is called, peace by war, as long as we can reach peace talks with Huang Taiji, we can focus all our energy on the three sides. Yang He, the governor of the three sides, advocates on the three sides, advocating to Fu as the main, supplemented by the thieves, and it takes a lot of money to appease the thieves, and now more than half of the income of the Commercial Tax Department is supplied to northern Shaanxi, but once it is slightly unable to keep up, the thieves will rebel, if the Mongolia is subdued, Liaodong can negotiate peace with Jianzhou, and the emperor canonizes Huang Taiji as the king of Liaodong, and canonizes Lin Dan Khan as the king of Mongolia, so that Liaodong is stable for a period of time, and we can take advantage of this opportunity. ”

Chen Zilong comprehended Wang Zhizheng's strategic phalanx and felt that it was very correct, so he nodded and said: "The matter is urgent, I must go back to Beijing immediately and explain the situation to the emperor, because this mercenary has not been approved by the emperor, so the household department is ready to stop the supply of military food to you!"

Wang Zhizheng raised his head and stared at Chen Zilong and said: "What does the household department know? You go back and quickly tell the emperor, tell him that the military salary should not come from the household department, but from the finance of the Department of Commerce and Taxation, this time the mercenaries are too important, the opportunity is once in a lifetime, if you miss it, Mongolia will fall into the hands of Jianzhou, once Mongolia falls into the hands of Jianzhou, we have to extend the northern line to the same line, Xifengkou, and we will be surrounded by Jianzhou regiments!"

Chen Zilong advised: "Teacher, please don't forget the old things about Yue Fei and Yuan Chonghuan, if you really can't support the army, please ask the teacher to take self-preservation!"

Wang Zhizheng changed his style this time, as if he had eaten a scale: "Zilong, how can I teach you on weekdays? There are only a few fighters, and if you miss it, you won't have a chance, this time it's to compete with Jianzhou for Mongolia, we have already missed a chance to conquer Mongolia, if we miss it again this time, it is estimated that we won't have a chance!"

Chen Zilong's eyes turned red: "Wen Tiren, Zhou Yanru will attack you again in the court, saying that you want to echo Huang Taiji, force Mongolia to take refuge in Jianzhou, and want to trap the Ming Dynasty and never recover, the emperor has already been moved, Wen Tiren said, if the teacher wants to be Yuan Chonghuan's second, then the emperor should not be too merciful!"

Wang Zhizheng became a little desperate: "Wen Tiren, I don't care how Zhou Yanru plots against me, this time I must not miss the great opportunity to fight for Mongolia, if I miss it, Gyeonggi will be open to Jianzhou, Wen Tiren, Zhou Yanru These scholars have mistaken the country, I went back to Beijing, and I have to kill them if I find an opportunity." You don't have to be afraid, if this action really puts me in prison or is imprisoned for collaborating with the enemy, you can find two people to rescue me, these two people are my in-laws, one is the deputy governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou, and the other is Wu Xingfang, the old cabinet minister! With them, I should not end up like Inspector Yuan!"

Chen Zilong's tears rained down: "Teacher! For the sake of righteousness, you would rather suffer such a danger! The student is ashamed!"

Wang Zhizheng patted Chen Zilong on the shoulder and said, "Go back quickly, time is urgent, whether you can convince the emperor or not, it's up to you!" Cao Bianjiao and Lu Xiangsheng have just exterminated more than 10,000 people in Karaqin, if my guess is right, Jianzhou should also start to attack the Mongolian army, Lin Dan is anxious, and he will definitely send envoys to investigate, I don't have much grain and grass left, all the military food depends on robbing the Mongolian people, Karaqin Lu Xiangsheng robbed 150,000 taels of silver, Wu Sangui robbed 200,000 taels of silver, and even Huang Zongxi robbed 50,000 taels, these money, a drop in the bucket, is far from enough for the military rations I need to attack Lin Dan, whether you can convince the emperor to allocate military rations, it's up to you!"

Chen Zilong nodded firmly: "Teacher, please rest assured, this matter will be handled by me!"
