Although Emperor Chongzhen has always been concerned about the preparations for the war in Ningyuan, after all, he is going to go to the field with Jianyu. Therefore, on the surface he didn't say anything, but in his heart, in fact, he was always worried.

For a long time, the imperial court's war against Liaodong Jianyu was a situation of defeat after defeat and repeated defeats. Although there was also a victory in Li Laiheng's raid on the hinterland of Liaodong, it was more of a trick, and no one would think that the Ming Dynasty would really be able to win the Jianyu.

As for the Battle of Phi Dao, it was a matter of course that the victory was won, and no one would attribute that victory to a victory over Jianguo.

Therefore, after Zhang Mingwei led the troops to set off, Emperor Chongzhen kept calculating the time in his heart, at this time, what stage of the war was going on?

As time passed, his worries grew.

However, he also knew that, based on past experience, if he interfered in the war on the front line, the final result would definitely not be good.

"That's right, sir's ability, I must believe it." Often when he was anxious, Emperor Chongzhen said to himself in his heart, "Mr. fought in the south and the north, and he was invincible and invincible, and he came out with a peace." What about Jianyu, he is definitely not Mr.'s opponent! ”

In the beginning, this comfort was very effective.

However, as time slowly passes, the effect of this comfort becomes less and less.

"The strength of Mr. this expedition is only more than 30,000 points, according to the previous news, there are more than 30,000 prisoners in the Ningyuan area alone, if you add the prisoners in the Jinzhou area, this force is definitely more than Mr. If you look at it this way, can you still win? ”

"No, no, Mr. has always won more with less, basically he has never lost, and this time, it will definitely be no exception!"

"It's hard to say! The thieves and horses, those are all false, more just to coerce the people! And that Jianyu, that is really powerful, has never been defeated against the court officials and soldiers, and now it is still the court officials and troops to attack, this is even more difficult, can it win in the end? ”

“……”

Emperor Chongzhen has been tormented in such a mentality of suffering from gains and losses, and later, it has affected the handling of political affairs.

However, except for the most senior officials of the Ming Dynasty, no one else knew that the imperial court took the initiative to launch the Ningyuan War at this time. Not many people know about Emperor Chongzhen's thoughts, but Wang Chengen is an exception.

He quickly sensed Emperor Chongzhen's anxiety, and comforted: "Long live Lord, the slave maid had a dream last night, and I don't know what happened, so it's strange?" ”

"Huh?" Emperor Chongzhen was a little absent-minded.

"The slave dreamed of the northeast direction of the fire, and then groups of magpies flew to the Forbidden City, chirping non-stop." Wang Chengen pretended to be puzzled and said, "The slave maid thinks about it, the magpie should be a good thing, but the fire should be a disaster, right?" This is a magpie and a fire, what does Zhou Gong mean by this, the slave maid is puzzled! ”

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he immediately asked with interest: "The northeast direction is full of fire, and then magpies come in flocks?" ”

After seeing Wang Chengen nodding, Emperor Chongzhen clapped his palms and immediately said excitedly: "Haha, if the fire is soaring to the sky, it should be on Jianyu, and the magpie is my palace, isn't it easy to explain?" ”

When Wang Chengen heard this, he said with a look of sudden realization: "Long live the Lord means that the prince of the country will definitely win a great victory in this war?" ”

After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Emperor Chongzhen to answer, so he hurriedly said: "It must be what it means, slave and maid, congratulations to Long Live Lord, Congratulations to Long Live Lord!" The imperial court will have a great victory against Jianyu! ”

"Hahaha......" When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he laughed out loud, and his mood improved a lot.

However, when he was sleeping at night, he suddenly woke up in the middle of the night, and even woke up Tian Guifei with him.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Tian Guifei found that Emperor Chongzhen's forehead was sweating, so she hurriedly called the palace maid to serve Emperor Chongzhen, and at the same time said, "Your Majesty is having a nightmare?" It's okay, it's good to wake up! ”

Emperor Chongzhen let the palace maid wipe the sweat from his forehead, but said with a worried face, "Ai Fei, why do you say that I can't dream of good signs?" ”

"......" Tian Guifei was speechless when she heard it, a little inexplicable, so she hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, dreams come in reverse, and it is good luck if you don't dream of good signs!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded when he heard this, and suddenly muttered to himself: "I will issue an order tomorrow to cut down all those crooked neck trees!" ”

“？？？” When Tian Guifei heard this, she continued to have question marks in her mind, she was a little confused, and she couldn't keep up with Emperor Chongzhen's train of thought.

"Sir, you can't have an accident!" Emperor Chongzhen muttered to himself again, "20,000 cavalry troops and 10,000 infantry troops are all belongings that the imperial court has managed to put together, but they can't be gone!" ”

He dreamed just now, and dreamed that the front line was defeated against Shangjianlu, and then Jianlu counterattacked all the way to Jingshi, and a traitor opened the city gate, and he finally went to the crooked neck tree and hanged himself.

The reason why this is so, in the final analysis, is that the official army of the imperial court has never had a real victory against Shang Jianyu. After so many years of defeat, including Emperor Chongzhen, there is already a psychological shadow!

"Your Majesty, if you are worried about Mr., you might as well send someone to ask!" Tian Guifei also had a good impression of the Duke of Xingguo who avenged his son, and hurriedly said to Emperor Chongzhen.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he nodded at first, but finally shook his head and said, "Forget it, I believe sir, let's wait for the news." ”

Speaking of this, after a pause, he added: "I'm afraid that after knowing the news from the front, I can't help but have some thoughts, and it won't be good if it affects the frontline war!" ”

"It's okay, let's sleep!"

In this kind of torment, it was until the third day of the seventh month of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen. On this day, he was handling government affairs in the Wenhua Palace, discussing the relief of the typhoon in the southern provinces of Guangdong and Fujian, when he suddenly heard a commotion outside.

Originally, he was not in a very good mood these days because he was worried about the war on the front line. Therefore, after hearing the commotion outside, he frowned and asked, "The palace is important, who is so bold?" ”

When Wang Chengen heard this, he hurriedly came out and played: "The slave maid immediately went to see who it was......"

At this point, he suddenly shut up, and his ears stood up, and he faintly heard something.

Wang Erbiao, the eunuch of the celebrant Bingbi, suddenly said in surprise: "Your Majesty, it seems that you are shouting for a great victory......

If it was in the past, he would never dare to report the good news to Emperor Chongzhen directly. However, now that he has the credit for defeating the Kong family, he has enough confidence, and he will not decide to do things after looking at Wang Chengen's face.

Wang Chengen glanced at him, and then also showed excitement, and said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Congratulations to the Lord of Long Live Lord, it should be the dream of the slave maid, and the Duke of Xingguo has won the battle?" ”

At this time, the noise is getting closer and closer, and even if someone can't hear what is being shouted behind their ears, the joy in the shouting can be heard no matter what.

The first assistant of the cabinet, Du Yinxi, was still young, and he heard something, and immediately said with great joy: "Your Majesty, it seems that it is really the report of the great victory in Liaodong!" ”

Generally speaking, if the bad thing happens, it is played quietly. But if it is a good thing, in the spirit of rejoicing with the people and proclaiming the prestige of the court, it can be widely publicized.

Now if you want to talk about any great victory, these high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty who are discussing it all know that there is only one place, and that is the Ningyuan War.

Emperor Chongzhen himself heard it at this time, and suddenly, his face was like a happy flower, and he wanted people to hurry up and play the good news, but in the end he still held back.

The dignified Emperor Ming, how can there be no city government!

In fact, from hearing the noise outside to the arrival of the good news to the Wenhua Palace, it was not a long time, but Emperor Chongzhen seemed to have waited for a long time before finally waiting for the good news.

"Your Majesty, the battle of Ningyuan is a great victory! Guogong will not be triumphant! ”

Emperor Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair, already smiling, and the stone in his heart was completely put down. It seems that although Jianyu is powerful, he will also lose against Mr. Shang!

Seeing Wang Chengen hurriedly present the good news, the careful plug Yinxi found that Emperor Chongzhen left the dragon chair with his buttocks, leaned forward and took the initiative to get the good news, it was obvious that the emperor couldn't wait.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but laugh. Because he understands Emperor Chongzhen's feelings, after all, he has a great victory over Shang Jianyu, no wonder the emperor is so excited, no wonder there is such a loud noise outside!

At this time, everyone in the Wenhua Hall focused their eyes on Emperor Chongzhen, wanting to know what the specific battle situation was?

I saw Emperor Chongzhen take a quick look, and suddenly patted the case, and shouted loudly: "Okay, good, hahaha, good......"

As soon as he saw it, he knew that it was definitely not an ordinary good news, and when he was about to ask the emperor to show him the good news, he saw that Emperor Chongzhen looked at the good news again. This time, it's watching and shouting "good, good".

His performance suddenly made the people in the Wenhua Palace itch, what kind of victory would make the emperor happy?

After Emperor Chongzhen watched it three times in a row, he finally asked the chamberlain to pass on the good news to the courtiers below, and then he began to spoil himself: "Mr. is really good, hahaha, do you know how many Jianyu were eliminated in this battle?" 31,000 Jianyu, captured alive Jianyu inlaid with white flags and solid mountains Ezhen, hahaha, I must sacrifice to the Taimiao, hahaha......"

As soon as they heard this, the officials below no longer cared about the etiquette of the emperor, and they all gathered around Shoufu to see the good news together.

Since the rise of Jianlu, the official army of the imperial court has had such a big victory against Shangjianlu!

Hahaha, that's actually it!

Almost at the same time, the urgent report also arrived in Shengjing.
