Chapter Twenty-Six: Who Is It Else?

Alas, it's not easy!

Emperor Chongzhen looked at the mournful Lu Xiangsheng, and the corner of his eyes swept over Yang Sichang, who was a little sad, and shook the dragon's head with emotion.

In fact, not only Lu Xiangsheng lost his father and was robbed of love by the imperial court, but Yang Sichang was also the same!

It's just that Lu Xiangsheng cares too much about the name festival all his life, and Yang Sichang will be even more indifferent.

And this point was also used by the Donglin Party to attack Yang Sichang's "seizure of affection into the cabinet", which was actually against the peace negotiations with slaves led by him.

Originally, in the matter of peace with slaves, with the current bad situation of the Ming Dynasty, it was a good policy, and it was also an opportunity for the Ming Dynasty to come back to life.

What's more, the agreement is to be torn up, as long as it is temporarily overcome.

The deity of Toutie and Yang Sichang had the idea of taking the outside and the inside at the beginning of the peace discussion.

In other words, the two of them wanted to tear up the agreement from the beginning.

It's a pity that Daming has no soil for peace.

However, in any case, at this time, Jiannu had already approached the city, the capital was under martial law, and the whole country was already in a state of war, and it was impossible to have the idea of negotiating peace.

If peace is negotiated at this time, won't it become a reparation, land cession, and the measurement of China's material resources?

This is completely impossible, Gangming is not a slave!

Emperor Chongzhen then encouraged Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Sichang to try their best to make a bowl of water even, and then retreated from the eunuchs around him, leaving only Gao Shiming, the master of ceremonies.

Between the monarch and the minister, it is time to unify the thinking and talk about the heart-wrenching words.

"Zhuqing, since the last years of the imperial brother, the court has been worried about internal and external troubles, and the country has no peace. Especially in recent years, natural and man-made disasters have continued, and the people have been exiled and displaced.

In the past 200 years, the country has never been as poor and in danger as it is today.

And the East is waiting for an opportunity to invade and become more and more arrogant. Since I ascended to the pole, I have entered the fortress four times so far, and I have surrounded the Beijing division three times, which is unbearable!

Therefore, I am determined to mobilize the strength of the whole country and fight to the death against the Eastern Captives! ”

In the Jianji Palace, Emperor Chongzhen looked at Lu Xiangsheng, Yang Sichang and Gao Shiming, and said categorically.

And so it was!

There were three people in the hall, Gao Shiming knew about this for a long time, and he was not shocked. Lu Xiangsheng is the main battle faction, and he is ecstatic.

Only Yang Sichang, although he had already predicted it in his heart, he really heard His Majesty's words with his own ears, but he was somewhat unwilling.

Thinking that in order to get rid of the outside world, he must first settle the internal policy, and he did not hesitate to risk the infamy of the world through the ages, and suggested that His Majesty make peace, but in the end, he still fell short and became a villain in vain.

"Yang Benbing, the country is as His Majesty said, it is no longer what it is, do you still want to compromise the East Capture and want to be safe for a while?"

Lu Xiangsheng saw Yang Sichang's dejected appearance, looked at him fiercely, and couldn't help but sneer.

"Why did Jiandou say that?"

Yang Sichang just glanced at Lu Xiangsheng, but his eyes turned to Emperor Chongzhen, and said with three points of loneliness and seven points of worry: "What Your Majesty said, the ministers empathize with and agree.

However, those who are worried about it must first settle down inside. If the thieves are not eliminated, and the ministers are afraid that they will not be able to take care of both inside and outside, the disaster of the Southern Song Dynasty will be inevitable.

Now that the situation is in front of us, the imperial court cannot deal with the traitors and the Tartars at the same time due to the shortage of troops and food.

Now His Majesty has completely abandoned the traitors and mobilized the strength of the whole country to deal with the Tartars, and the minister believes that the Tartars will be driven out and the prestige of the country will not fall!

However, after the expulsion of the Tartars, the ministers feared that the good times they had achieved would no longer exist. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Sichang looked up to the sky and sighed, his eyes moist.

In the hall, Lu Xiangsheng, who was originally complacent, also lowered his head after listening to Yang Sichang's words.

To be honest, he has been on the front line of suppressing bandits, and he knows that Yang Sichang is not alarmist.

When the Tartars did not enter the customs, the Ming Dynasty was fortunate to rely on the protection of the ancestors and ancestors, and the national fortunes had taken a turn for the better.

The giant thief Gao Yingxiang had been ambushed in the autumn of the previous year, and Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, and the big thieves such as Shooting the Sky also took care of him.

The rest of the thieves, either dead or scattered, or watched and watched, were not as rampant as in the past.

Although there is a thief Li Zicheng who is stubborn and stubborn, he vows to confront the imperial court, and there is no trace of surrender without fear.

However, this thief has been surrounded and suppressed by the imperial court for nearly a year, and he is already exhausted and dying. The rest of the army had only a few thousand thieves to fight, and the rest were all old and weak, women and children.

At present, under the siege of Hong Chengchou, the governor of the three sides, and Sun Chuanting, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, the thieves have been driven into the snare, waiting to be captured in one fell swoop and sacrificed to His Majesty.

Now that the imperial court has transferred Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou to King Qin, the encirclement is dispersed, and the traitor Li Zicheng escapes from his life.

And Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai and others, who have already surrendered, have no intention of surrendering, and they have lost the intimidation of the army, so I am afraid that they will immediately rebel.

The arrangements and achievements of the imperial court for several years will be destroyed in one fell swoop.

"Your Majesty, I am afraid that the traitor will come back one day, or like a fire in the prairie fire, and the panic cannot be extinguished!"

In the end, in the empty Jianji Hall, Yang Sichang's hoarse wail sounded, like a cuckoo crying blood, which was sad.

Alas!

Emperor Chongzhen sighed, this is for Yang Sichang!

History has misunderstood Yang Sichang a lot.

Because Lu Xiangsheng died in battle, the historical data blames all the blame on Yang Sichang.

Why?

Just because Lu Xiangsheng is the main battle faction, and Yang Sichang is the main peace faction.

The main and main battle factions of all dynasties and dynasties are incompatible, and the main and main war factions must be put to death, and Lu Xiangsheng must be framed and killed.

But......

Historically, there have been many surrenders of the main battle faction, and there are also many martyrs of the main war faction.

The main battle faction, the main peace faction, is not necessarily a question of measuring whether a person is loyal to the country, that would be too naïve.

Well, the main faction is the traitor and traitor.

To be honest, the relationship between Yang Sichang, Gao Qiqian and Lu Xiangsheng is not a contradiction between friend and foe, but the three of them have different views on the strategy of the war.

Gao Qiqian, a dead eunuch, was because the prison army Ji Liao was indeed afraid of Jiannu and did not dare to fight with Jiannu.

And Yang Sichang is asking for "no waveless fighting" and maintaining vitality.

Originally, it was normal for senior generals to have disagreements between senior generals, the high command and front-line commanders.

The fuller the pre-war discussions, the better, but once the strategy is formulated, it must be strictly implemented, regardless of whether it is correct or reasonable.

But the three of them did this very badly, and the chief of the general staff and the two front-line commanders-in-chief had different orders, each with his own agenda, and he fought separately.

In the end, Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian teamed up and killed Lu Xiangsheng.

And this is also where the stigma of Yang Sichang's life lies.

At the same time, this also shows that Yang Sichang is a talent, has strategic ability, sees problems, but has no ability to solve them.

Therefore, he is a qualified strategist, not a qualified handsome.

Da Ming lacks a handsome talent who can dominate the overall situation.

And this is also the reason why Emperor Chongzhen wanted to drive the expedition in person.

If you want to calm the world, who else will I be in today's world?

Emperor Chongzhen stood up from the dragon chair, walked down the Danqi, and slowly came to Yang Sichang and Lu Xiangsheng.

PS: Zhuqing, a new week has begun, and the recommended votes support a wave, and two more will start tomorrow...... Can't do it every day...... Whining......
