Zhu Youxiao has already planned it, he has been laying out for so long, and it is almost time to close the net.

Gently tapping his fingers on the tabletop, the expression on his face became more and more solemn. What he wants to do is to defeat the Donglin Party at one time and crush it from all sides, whether it is the ideological circle or the officialdom, to start an all-out war.

Even the Qi, Zhejiang, and Chu parties and Zhu Youxiao had to fight at one time, and what he wanted to use was the new party, that is, the party he was about to develop.

You must know that after Emperor Jiajing ascended the throne, he launched a great ceremony. What is the so-called grand liturgy?

On the surface, it was a political controversy over the issue of imperial unity, which was caused by the Jiajing Emperor's change of parents by taking the throne as a local vassal king.

But is that actually the case? No, in essence, Emperor Jiajing is playing with power.

To put it bluntly, it's time for you to start taking sides, who you are and why you are doing things, that's the key.

You are willing to listen to me, the emperor, and are willing to do things for me, so good, on my side; No, then I'm sorry.

Zhu Youxiao is also ready to do the same.

For the emperor, there is no way, there is no justice and evil, there is only whether you support my rule or not.

You support my rule, so good, you are my man; If you don't support it, then I can only let you die.

It's not about morality, it's not about learning, it's not even about the individual.

"Go and pass on Wei Zhongxian." Zhu Youxiao thought about it, but there was still one step missing in the matter, that is, Wei Zhong. He had to make sure that there were no problems with Wei Zhongxian.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Hong agreed, turned around and walked outside, his steps were fast. He always felt that something big was going to happen, and now that feeling was getting more and more urgent.

Soon Wei Zhongxian came, Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Zhongxian in front of him, and asked with a calm face: "Those people from the Three Law Divisions, can you still control them?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister can." Wei Zhongxian hurriedly replied, the expression on his face did not change in the slightest.

"What about getting them to confess?" Zhu Youxiao turned his head to look at Wei Zhongxian again: "You'd better tell the truth." Once something goes wrong, I'm afraid that the opportunity to go and give Emperor Taizu to guard the spirit will be gone. ”

Wei Zhongxian was taken aback when he heard this.

The so-called wake-up for Emperor Taizu is a very, very cruel punishment for the eunuchs.

How could Wei Zhongxian, who had already experienced the taste of power, be willing to go to the vigil, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, everything the factory minister said is the truth. ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "That's very good, you can go!" ”

Watching Wei Zhongxian leave, Zhu Youxiao stretched his waist. Things are almost done, and the rest can begin.

Liaodong, Shenyang City.

"Marshal, Jiannu has withdrawn." Li Guangrong said excitedly: "Do we want to pursue?" ”

Xiong Tingbi glanced at Li Rongguang, the expression on his face did not change in the slightest, and he shook his head directly and said, "Don't chase!" ”

A touch of gloom flashed on Li Guangrong's face, but he still fought for it: "Marshal, Jiannu divides the army, there are only more than 10,000 people outside the city at this time, and our army in the city will definitely be able to win in one battle." That Nurhaci who built a slave is still outside, if we can capture it, it will be a great achievement, and we can even recover Tieling and other places! ”

Glancing at the excited Li Rongguang, Xiong Tingbi shook his head directly, he didn't believe that these Ming troops in the city could win the battle, and it would be good if they could hold Shenyang.

Even Xiong Tingbi suspected that there was an ambush outside. In Xiong Tingbi's opinion, Nurhachi is not such a stupid person, will he give Lao Xiong this opportunity to pursue?

The so-called division of troops to attack Liaoyang must only be ambushed outside the city, as long as you go out, you will definitely be ambushed, and then not only will this battle be defeated, but even Shenyang City will be lost.

Xiong Tingbi would definitely not do this kind of thing, he said directly: "You keep an eye on it, wait until they are far away, and send scouts out." Ben Shuai is going to write a good news, this time we have a big victory, and Ben Shuai wants to report the victory to the imperial court. ”

Li Rongguang looked confused, report the victory? Victory? Is there something wrong with your brain, or did I hear it wrong?

hurriedly ran a few steps to catch up, Li Rongguang said with a worried face: "Dashuai, at this time, Governor Xue's impeachment of Dashuai is afraid that he has already entered Beijing, and he will definitely slander Dashuai for being afraid of war and not going out of the city, and writing a good news at this time is afraid that it will backfire, right?" ”

A small victory is said to be a big victory, and the victory is said to be big, which is not too unusual for the generals of the border army, and basically can only belong to routine operations.

But this time it was different, this time it was blocked at home, and he didn't even dare to go out of the city. What's more, the governor is still staring at you, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to report success at this time, right?

Xiong Tingbi glanced at Li Rongguang and said angrily: "What do you know, look at Ben Shuai to reward you." ”

Xiong Tingbi knew in his heart that this bullshit victory could only be said to be defended, but he had to write so.

One is to establish his own prestige, and the other is to establish his authority in front of the Liaodong soldiers.

Where does the authority of the military commander come from?

The answer is simple, that is the emperor's pet. The Emperor's favor is the source of your authority.

If no one listens to what you say, what authority do you have? Without authority, what can be used to strictly enforce military discipline? What to deter subordinates?

If you can ask for a reward in such a situation, what does that mean? That means that he is a person favored by His Majesty.

When the people below saw it, they were naturally honest. When the time comes, you can also take military discipline seriously, and kill a few people to Liwei, basically these soldiers will be honest.

Of course, there is also a difficulty in this, that is, whether the emperor really trusts you. If not, then you are dying; If so, then you can establish authority.

This is also the third reason why Xiong Tingbi wrote this good news, he wants to see how much His Majesty supports him.

If His Majesty can't tolerate himself doing something out of the ordinary, then this time he will lie about his victory, and it is estimated that he will be able to dismiss his official and go home, and maybe he will have to be convicted.

Of course Li Rongguang didn't understand Xiong Tingbi's thoughts.

But when he saw that Xiong Tingbi was so confident, he subconsciously believed Xiong Tingbi's statement, and then the news spread.

Liaodong was stunned all over the world, can this be done?

If this can be rewarded, how favored the handsome man will be with His Majesty!

Many people don't believe that Xiong Tingbi can ask His Majesty for a reward, and more of them scoff.

But no one dares to jump out at this time, not afraid of 10,000, just in case! What if this Xiong Tingbi is really going to come down?

These people have a wait-and-see attitude, anyway, if Xiong Tingbi doesn't come down, he himself has no face to be this official, so it's better to wait.

However, because Xiong Tingbi did this, Liaodong actually stabilized, and everyone began to cooperate with him.
