On the eighteenth day of the twelfth year of Chongzhen, a snowstorm shrouded the land of Liaodong, also shrouded in the wind and snow, on this day in the city of Shenyang, flames were burning everywhere, and the billowing smoke rose out of a column of smoke, and the pillar of smoke converged into a ball of smoke in the air, dyeing the white snow black.

Black snowflakes floated on the ground, and there were blood stains everywhere on the ground! The snowflakes melted into pools of blood.

On this day, what was staged in Shenyang was the story that had to be told between the conqueror and the conquered. There is no gentle and joyful "fusion", only the blood and tears of the vanquished, and there is the unbridled laughter of the conqueror.

Everything is just like what was done when Shenyang was broken by the Later Jin soldiers, it is just a repetition of history.

When the conquerors were enjoying their spoils, in the so-called palace, in the Chongzheng Palace, the atmosphere seemed a little gloomy, in this palace, Zhu Guoqiang's expression was solemn, and more often, he would turn his eyes to the dragon chair.

Dragon Chair!

Even the barbarian dragon chair is full of endless temptations for the world.

Perhaps for people in another world, who visit the Forbidden City and see the dragon chair, it is just a palatial chair inlaid with gold.

But in this day and age, this chair is a symbol of power, a symbol of supreme power.

Throughout the ages, I don't know how many people have fought openly and secretly for the rights symbolized by this chair, killing their fathers and brothers.

At this moment, Zhu Guoqiang, who is in this era, also felt the temptation he brought when looking at the dragon chair, and that temptation made it impossible for anyone to calm down.

After all, the power symbolized by that chair is supreme and self-exalted. It's enough to make people leave everything behind.

Tempt.

In the face of such a temptation, even Zhu Guoqiang seems to be unable to resist.

If only the yellow robe was added now...... What's the harm in putting it on?

One word, only me, export into the constitution......

Who doesn't aspire to such power?

At this moment, someone on the side interrupted his chaotic thoughts.

"Lord Shizi, there was a report that when the soldiers were searching for the houses in the city, some soldiers did not wait for the reward, so they shared the wealth and women first......"

Without waiting for Liu Hanyi to finish speaking, Zhu Guoqiang, who came back to his senses, said in a deep voice.

"The slave chieftain was based in Liaoyang, sealed the treasury, and the folk gold and silver were all sold. Before the official robbery, Nurhachi issued an order, stipulating that the rich families were only allowed to leave nine pieces of clothes, the middle families were allowed to leave five pieces of clothes, the inferior families were allowed to leave three pieces of clothes, and all other belongings were handed over. It was in this way that they gathered the clothes they had looted in the military grounds of Liaoyang for the Jurchens and Mongols to collect and enjoy, and for every city they had, they killed all the men and brought their wives and children (children), cattle and horses back as captives to ......"

Staring at the dragon chair, Zhu Guoqiang's brows jumped, and now he looked at the dragon chair, and what he saw was the bloodstains under the dragon chair. That bloodstain is the blood of millions of people.

Who dares to forget this sea of blood feud?

Zhu Guoqiang said coldly.

"When the good Han people built slaves and rebelled, they were killed, from now on, we will only use their way to control their bodies, and repay their grievances with virtue, how can they repay their grievances? Killing for killing, blood for blood, otherwise, you can't deter barbarians! ”

We are always merciful. They repay them with civility and kindness, but how do they repay our kindness?

The barbarians repaid the mercy with his butcher's knife.

Good people are killed by them. From now on, those who survive will become wicked. This evil is only directed against certain barbarians.

"The prince is wise!"

In the compliments of everyone, they also saw that the eyes of the prince had been on the dragon chair, so they all retreated in interest.

Only Liu Hanyi stayed alone.

"Why didn't you go out?"

Zhu Guoqiang looked down at the blood stains on the ground, it was the blood of the guards, but one thing is for sure, the road to power must have been paved with blood.

In the struggle for power, there is no room for mercy!

"Lord Shizi!"

As the prince of the world, Liu Hanyi, the closest staff member, said in a low voice.

"At present, Shenyang City has been completely based on me, there are hundreds of thousands of Han people enslaved by Jiannu around Shenyang, they all have a blood feud with Jiannu, and they are all grateful for the grace of the prince to rescue, and the following ministers can levy the surrounding Han people as soldiers and stick to Shenyang!"

"Oh! Is it? And then what? ”

Zhu Guoqiang asked casually,

"After the chieftain learned that Shenyang was the prince of the world, he would inevitably send the whole army to help Shenyang, but now it is a cold winter, such an icy and snowy land, tens of thousands of troops have no food and grass, how long can they last? And the fall of Shenyang will inevitably make the Jiannu army in turmoil, the army is in turmoil, and the grain and grass are insufficient, as long as our army is recuperating, when the chieftain enters Shenyang, the city will be held, and it will definitely be defeated in Shenyang, and then the prince can take Shenyang as the foundation......"

Seeing that the prince didn't speak, Liu Hanyi couldn't help but feel anxious, and hurriedly said loudly.

"When the chieftain is defeated, it will be the time when the prince will become a great thing. It can be based on Liaodong to stand on its own, there is the governor of Song to preside over Shandong, there is Ge Cunye and others to stay in Yangzhou, there is Abatai to contain Shi Kefa, Dolgon to contain Hong Chengchou, and the prince can take advantage of the merit of recovering Liao - the side of the Qing monarch! ”

"Qingjun side!"

After a few silent words, Zhu Guoqiang turned to look at Liu Hanyi and said.

"There is some truth in what you say, tell me why Abatai and Dorgon are listening to me?"

"As long as Huang Taiji is defeated, or he flees to the grassland, Abatai and Dolgon are the dogs who have lost their homes, Zhang Huang is at a loss, and the people are scattered, and the soldiers have no fighting spirit and no fighting spirit. This God-given opportunity is for the prince of the world, and the prince of the world can not take it! ”

When I first heard it, it seemed that what Liu Hanyi said was very reasonable, if I didn't seize such a good opportunity, I was afraid that I would really be sent by heaven!

But Zhu Guoqiang stared at Liu Hanyi and asked rhetorically.

"Do you mean that you won't pursue Abatai's crime of digging the Yellow River and harming hundreds of thousands of my people?"

"Lord Shizi, for those who achieve great things, they are not informal!"

"I'm not going to hold Dolgon accountable for his repeated murder of millions of my people!"

"Lord Shizi, back then, Chengzu also used Duoyan Sanwei!"

"Back then, Duoyan Sanwei didn't kill millions of Han people!"

Zhu Guoqiang sneered.

"If I use Abatai and Dorgon as strikers to calm the world, how will the people of the world think of me? I, Zhu Ciying, for my own selfish interests, did not hesitate to abandon the sea of blood and hatred, killed the Han people with Yi soldiers, and seized the world, even if I became the emperor, how could I be worthy of the world and the people who were slaughtered by Jiannu? ”

"The ...... of the Prince"

"Don't persuade me anymore, everything goes according to plan!"

"Lord Shizi!"

Without waiting for Liu Hanyi to speak again, Zhu Guoqiang's right hand pressed the handle of the knife violently.

"Liu Hanyi, do you think I won't kill you!"

Faced with the threat of the prince, Liu Hanyi suddenly said with a straight face.

"The prince is wise!"

As he spoke, he bowed, then prostrate, pressed his hands to the ground, and then bent his left and right legs. Prostrate to the ground and stay for a while.

"The subordinates worship this to thank the prince for the common people of the world, and the prince can categorically refuse the temptation of the throne for the common people of the world, which is really a blessing for the common people of the world!"

Looking at Liu Hanyi kneeling on the ground, Zhu Guoqiang was stunned, and instantly understood what he meant, he was persuading himself to act like this, but telling himself that if he wanted to win the world now, he had to collude with the captives!

The road to power is indeed paved with blood, but that blood must be the blood of the enemy! Anyone who colludes with foreign enemies and kills compatriots for the sake of their own selfish interests will certainly be spurned by history.

First laughed, it's nice to have a few such people around me! This is the true righteous person! Then Zhu Guoqiang said.

"I want to win the world, why borrow the hands of barbarians, when I used troops to go on the Northern Expedition, I said, fish, I want to do what I want; Bear's paws, as well as I want. Shengjing, I'm going to fight, and now I'm fighting! Abatai their heads, I'm going to decide! ”

With a deep voice, Zhu Guoqiang didn't even look at the dragon chair, so he walked straight out, and when he left the hall, he shouted to everyone outside the hall.

"Burn it!"
