Chapter 661: Men, just be cruel to yourself
In a stunned gaze inside, Hong Chengchou took off the square hat on his head, and then walked quickly to the middle of the lobby, and took out a letter and held it high......
"Look, everyone!"
He said mysteriously.
All eyes were instantly focused on this envelope, but the top of the envelope was blank.
"Brother Hengjiu, don't talk nonsense!"
Zhang Xiao said speechlessly.
"Hurry up!"
"Hurry up!"
……
Others expressed their displeasure.
It is well known that this guy is involved in Feng Quan's conspiracy, but his choice is still very surprising, after all, he is not a northerner, and it is still very unusual for him to be a Hu Jianren squeezed into a group of northern eunuchs to engage in conspiracy. Especially when he was still a native of Quanzhou, at this time the coastal gentry in Fujian were praising Yang Xin's stinky feet, because he sang the praises of the Luzon crusade, just like the eunuchs touted the nine thousand years old, and even the hard bones like Huang Daozhou had to choose to shut his stinky mouth to Yang Xin under the stern warning of his hometown fathers.
Hong Chengchou was able to join the Yang camp, which was still very admired by the northern gentry.
Of course, the main thing is that the silver is enough.
In order to buy him, Jin Shang paid a full 200,000 taels.
At the end of the day, he still prefers silver.
"Guys, who do you think this is?"
Hong Chengchou continued to whet their appetite.
Zhang Xiao's eyes widened suddenly......
"Sun Chuanting?"
He said in surprise.
There was silence in the entire hall for an instant, everyone closed their mouths, looked at the blank envelope in Hong Chengchou's hand in amazement, watched Hong Chengchou slowly take out a letter from the envelope, and then slowly opened it and showed it to Zhang Xiao......
"That's right!"
He said.
"It can't be!"
Wang Dian said incredulously.
It really surprised them, because Sun Chuanting is an old friend of Yang Xin, and it can be said that he relied on Yang Xincai to rise all the way, and in less than ten years, he was promoted from a magistrate to a feudal official, and even became the most shining star in the Ming officialdom because of his military exploits.
It's still too abnormal for such a person to join Yang Yang.
Of course, if he really joins, the situation will be different immediately, in other words, he really has a heavy army and Lu Xiangsheng is tied for the head of the army, and nearly half of the elite of the Ming Dynasty is currently in his hands. And his position is also special, if he joins Yang and goes directly south from Liaodong to enter the customs, Yang Xin will be attacked in the capital at that time, and his joining will make Lu Xiangsheng and Man Gui not help Yang Xin.
"It's impossible, Sun Chuanting is still our northerner after all!"
Zhang Xiao said.
At this time, Hong Chengchou had already handed him the letter.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what Zhang Vice Xian said is right, Sun Chuanting is also a northerner after all."
Hong Chengchou said.
Wang Dian and the others looked at each other, and this explanation was obviously insufficient.
"After Hong left Xuanfu, he went directly to Ningyuan, before Taiyuan Hou had learned that Subudi left the pastoral area without permission, so he went to Ningyuan to sit in the town, Hong saw Taiyuan Hou in Ningyuan, and at this time the British prince had fled to Ningyuan, Taiyuan Hou was quite dissatisfied with the Zhennan Wang's purge of the ministers."
Hong Chengchou said.
Sun Chuanting's knighthood is the Marquis of Taiyuan, which belongs to the Marquis of the county.
He was indeed in Ningyuan.
The pastoral area of Subudi is near Ningyuan, his disappearance makes the Ningyuan defenders very vigilant, according to the title given to him before, he can't leave his pastoral area without authorization, Ningyuan defenders immediately reported, Sun Chuanting was worried that he wanted to do something, so he led Zhang Shenwu from Liaoyang to Ningyuan to guard. However, he didn't know that Lin Dan Khan's pastoral area was too large, even if he left Chahanhot, no one could imagine that he would go south, and a nomadic tribe like him might go to the pasture of a ravine. But as an earl, Subudi had a limited pastoral area and was close to Ningyuan, and as soon as he left, there were merchants who had gone to do business to report back.
However, Sun Chuanting didn't expect that he would actually go to the capital to do something, Sun Chuanting was just worried that he would loot the military tun in western Liaoning.
There was no main force of the Ming army before the Liaoning West Corridor.
The Ming army currently has a total of five troops left in Liaoning, of which Zhao led the sect in Kaiyuan, Cao Wenzhao in Shenyang, Mao Wenlong in Zhenjiang, Zhou Yuji came out of the Zhao sect and led an army to garrison Guangning alone, and Sun Chuanting took Zhang Shenwu in Liaoyang to reinforce the mobile.
Ningyuan is a vacancy.
After all, nearly half of the Liaodong Army has been transferred south, and the troops are no longer so abundant, and it is difficult to take care of unimportant positions, not only the western Liaoning corridor, but also the southern Liaoning, there is no main force, in fact, except for the Liaoshen line, the defenses in other places are very empty. And now these places do not need heavy troops, Huang Taiji is definitely not capable of going north, Mao Wenlong and Qin Minping are sandwiched between him in the north and south, Lin Dan Khan may rob, but there are still Inner Khalkha departments between him and Guangning.
The latter is sufficient to provide early warning.
Then Zhao Shujiao, Jin Taiji, and Jae Sai all killed from the flanks.
At this time, Liaoning can be said to be basically free of border troubles.
"That's it?"
Li Jingbai still didn't believe it.
In fact, most of the others don't believe it either.
It's a pie in the sky, and it's all old foxes here, and it's not so easy to believe.
"Of course it's not just that, the Marquis of Taiyuan is also a northerner after all, not to mention that he also reads sage books."
Hong Chengchou said.
However, this explanation made everyone even more disdainful.
"In fact, there is another reason, Taiyuan Hou opened several conditions."
Hong Chengchou said slightly embarrassed.
"Say!"
Zhang Fengxiang said without hesitation.
It is right to talk about conditions, and everything else is false.
"First, after attacking the capital, the treasury government was allowed to take it by the Taiyuan Marquis.
Even if the Marquis of Taiyuan wants to commit rape for the country, the soldiers under him can't run in vain, not to mention Cao Wenzhao, Zhao Shujiao, they all have a deep friendship with Yang Xin, then Cao Wenzhao is still his eldest brother, Taiyuan Hou wants these people to turn to Yang Xin as enemies, and it will definitely not work if there are not enough benefits. Yang Xin has been raiding his house in the capital these days, and it is said that he has copied countless gold and silver, which have to be attributed to the soldiers of the Taiyuan Marquis. ”
Hong Chengchou said.
"Yes!"
Zhang Xiao said without hesitation.
The others nodded their heads, just generous to others, and they didn't pay for it themselves.
"Second, give the Taiyuan Marquis and a few main generals to the real seal, that is, how many fiefs per person, and don't want the north, what must be the good land in the south, the left and right Yang thieves are removed, and the imperial court also wants to take back Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and their fiefs cannot be less, at least not less than 10,000 hectares."
Hong Chengchou said.
"Yes!"
Li Jingbai couldn't wait to say.
Or be generous to others.
"Third, all the businesses owned by Yang Thief, including banks, Nanyang Company, etc., belong to the Marquis of Taiyuan and his subordinate generals."
Hong Chengchou said.
"Yes!"
Wang Dian said.
This is not too much to ask.
In the final analysis, Sun Chuanting's ability to join is a miracle in itself, it is impossible to have frighteningly high conditions, the higher the conditions, the more likely it may be true, if Sun Chuanting wants less, then I really can't believe it. And these are all generous to others, to put it bluntly, it is to give Yang Xin to Sun Chuanting and these people, not to say that they will pay anything extra, and I don't know how to really fight, maybe these guys will be killed by Yang Xin, and there will definitely be no need to give it at that time.
"Then there is nothing else, what the Marquis of Taiyuan issued is these three, but it is useless for you to agree, you must have the letter of the king's consent, and you have to have the letter of the king's written guarantee, everyone, are we inviting the king out and asking the king to decide?"
Hong Chengchou said.
As he spoke, he looked around and happened to meet the shopkeeper Xu.
The latter was looking at him dumbfounded, as if he was making a silent exclamation, his eyes were full of shock and incredulity, and the whole person would not move, just leaned forward slightly, but Hong Chengchou's gaze did not stay on him, and still swept with a confident smile. The others looked at each other, and then Zhang Fengxiang got up and walked into the inner room, while Zhang Xiao and the others exchanged glances with each other, in fact, they still couldn't make up their minds because of this.
Ultimately......
At the end of the day, they just don't have confidence.
None of these old foxes have the courage to break the net.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's not like we're out of the cracks."
Hong Chengchou said with a smile.
Zhang Xiao and the others were silent.
"We can promise Lu Xiangsheng and the others that after the matter is completed, we can restore everything they have lost, and even give them the wealth of Nanjing, Yang Xin's hoarding of silver in the bank in Nanjing is no less than that of the capital, don't Lu Xiangsheng and these people want to share these tens of millions of taels? They don't want to take back their land? They just don't want to regain everything they've lost?
They just have to sit and watch.
And the Yang thief is not undead, just buy more rifled guns.
Thousands of rifled guns were fired, but after all, they could still kill him, and if they were not enough, they would be bombarded with artillery and explosives, as long as we were united, there was still a way to do it.
What's more, we have the entire Ming gentry behind us.
Beizhili, Shandong, Shanxi, Henan, Shaanxi, Sichuan, Huguang, Jiangxi, all will support us, even the Qianguo Gong of Yunnan will also support us, why can't we succeed with the power of the world? As long as our side starts to move, the Yang thief henchmen in the south will be immediately surrounded and trapped in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and what we need to deal with is the Yang thief and his family.
Sun Chuanting joined, Man Gui would not help the Yang thief, and even Cao Wenyao would defect, could the Yang thief really use his 15,000 people to resist us?
Indeed, we cannot say that it is foolproof.
But do you have a way out? Do you really want to do nothing like this, waiting for his sword to fall, waiting for your fields to be taken away? Take out the courage to break the boat, man, just be cruel to yourself! ”
Under the stunned gaze of Shopkeeper Xu, Hong Chengchou continued to speak impassionedly.
After he finished his last sentence, Shopkeeper Xu trembled obviously, looking at him like looking at a hungry wolf in sheep's clothing.
And at this time, King Shin walked out with a resolute face.
