Chapter IV: The Great Cause of Rebellion
Chapter 4: The Great Cause of Rebellion
Sikong Wang's words not only shocked Brother Erdan, but even Shen Chongming and Chen Xiao also showed surprised looks, which was insightful.
The expressions of the three of them made Sikong Wang blush, and he turned his head shyly to avoid the eyes of the three people.
"Oh, yes, Brother Sikong, I didn't see it! He has the potential to be a dog-headed military advisor," Brother Erdan shook his head again and again, with an expression of disbelief.
Sikong Wang glared at him fiercely, but he never refuted this, if he wanted to say that the people of the rivers and lakes, if they didn't have some brains, they would have been killed by someone a long time ago, and they had lived freely all these years, except for this light body kung fu that was difficult for ordinary people to reach, relying on this head melon seed.
Brother Erdan always likes to bully Sikong Wang, but Shen Chongming couldn't stand it anymore, and said loudly: "Okay, you don't have a flamboyant tongue all day long, you have to study hard like Sikong in the future!" ”
This sentence immediately made Brother Erdan lose his temper, and he nodded and kept silent.
Knowing that it was useless to say that he was useless, Shen Chongming got up and said, "Okay, let's stop here today!" In this way, it seems that Zhang Juzheng has a complete plan in his heart, and it is impossible for us to see the excitement, so we can only continue to wait for him to show his flaws! ”
Shen Chongming's reminder, everyone thought that it was late at night at this moment, and Brother Erdan was especially the most prosperous, and said angrily: "Hurry up and go back to sleep!" Tomorrow will you have to go to the city overseer? Oh my grandpa! ”
The two-month limit is getting closer and closer, and the pressure on Brother Erdan's shoulders is getting heavier and heavier, a Guogong Mansion of Nuoda is impossible to complete every one or two years in normal times, but under the strict orders of his own adults, he was stunned to create a miracle, a large amount of silver was drawn out like flowing water, nearly a thousand craftsmen worked day and night, so far the main project has been in shape, but the decoration behind it is a big trouble, and it is not someone who can arrange it to be useful, it is really sad.
Hearing his complaining tone, Shen Chongming didn't bother to pay attention to it, if he didn't do it beautifully, others would definitely conclude that he was covering up something else.
The longer the time drags on, the smaller the chance of gaining power again, at present, not only must plan in many ways, but also make the surface article more beautiful to reassure the opponent, otherwise the more cautious they are, the more difficult it will be for them to succeed, maybe they will cause destruction, and it is very possible to abandon the previous achievements, and at that time, they can only risk the ultimate killing move in the world.
During these days, although Shen Chongming was only in contact with Chen Xiao alone, he had already spread it through Chen Xiao's hands, and the target was not those important ministers of the imperial court in the capital, but the private beauty health doctors of military generals from all over the world who had never been much remembered.
Although Shen Chongming has not cultivated his own team above the court over the years, he has fought several times in the east and west, but he has invisibly established relationships with many generals, many of whom can be regarded as his henchmen.
And these people, any one of them is a general with heavy troops, there are border troops, and there are many sailors, occasionally recalling the faces of these people at night, Shen Chongming will feel a warm current passing through his chest.
Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao thought that they would be all right if they drove themselves out of the court, but these people who had been in the capital all the year round underestimated the power of the generals from all over the world, and thought that Taizu racked his brains to weaken the power of the generals because they were afraid of them.
It's a pity that more than 100 years have passed, and many people in the Ming Dynasty, who have been safe and sound, have forgotten the power of these generals, including Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, and even their mentor Gao Gong and brother Liu Shouyou don't know.
Now that he has not been forced by them to the point of no retreat, he naturally will not show this killer feature, but once his life is at stake, his only way is to erect the banner on the side of the Qing monarch, directly lead troops into Beijing City, and kill all these cadres, leaving no one behind.
Of course, although the plan is very good, Shen Chongming also knows that this kind of thing has to be carefully prepared, and the most important thing is to find out the attitude of those generals who have worked with him towards this matter, only if they are willing to follow him, can his killer weapon be formed.
In the past month or so, the situation sent to various places has returned to Nanjing City one after another, and the news brought back has also made Shen Chongming's heart feel a lot more reassured.
Needless to say, Yu Jiao, who was newly transferred to the command of the Nanjing Guard, had such a big mess in Huguang, and almost all of his generals defected to Zhu Yiluan, and for this alone, it was light to behead him ten times.
But he gave him a chance to make meritorious service and atone for his crimes, and even calmed down this matter for him in advance in the court, although this time although he was transferred from the commander of the second grade to the commander of Nanjing Wei and lowered by half a rank, anyone can see that this is a bright rise and a secret descent, such a kindness, he will naturally serve his life.
As for the emperor's pro-army guards in the imperial capital, it is his old territory, and now there is the senior brother Xiong Dabiao in charge, this simple man himself is too lazy to contact, if he is needed at that time, he can easily hold Beijing City in his hands with just one sentence.
Then there are the Nanjing Naval Division, the Fujian Naval Division, the Xuanfu Border Army, the Datong Border Army, etc., and even the Northeast Guards stationed in the vast black land, many generals were also promoted according to their own military merits after the Korean War.
Half of the soldiers and horses in the world are in their own hands, every time they think of this stubble, Shen Chongming can be scared out of a cold sweat, fortunately, the emperor has always trusted him, otherwise, he should have been confined in a small mansion in the capital for this reason alone.
However, when encountering such a thing as the moment, these resources at hand can be regarded as a great help to Shen Chongming, and he has a bottom in his heart, and his focus on things is higher, and he naturally sees it very thoroughly.
For him now, the most important thing is to try his best to solve the current dilemma without using force, after all, once force is used. Although success is not a problem, it is very likely that someone will secretly scold a rebellious thief in the end, and this is not what I want to see.
But it's still the previous question, since the high arch was elevated by Zhang Juzheng, he can't exert the slightest strength in the court, and now the hope can only be that Zhang Juzheng's change exposes the fatal weakness, only in this way can he have the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and re-enter the court, as for the rules of the ancestors, it is nonsense in the face of the strong, many times, the grandfather of the country can also participate in politics.
Today's general trend in the world has become like this, and the loopholes exposed by the Ming Dynasty are getting more and more, Zhang Juzheng is busy with his own changes and can't take care of it, Shen Chongming has no time to be distracted in order to recover, and the other person Feng Bao is also busy taking advantage of the situation to make money, but he has left a great opportunity for people with other plans to take power in the scarlet official career.
This is no one else's plan, it is Wuweijiao, who has been thinking about rebelling and seizing the country for decades.
Speaking of the inaction after this incident, then I have to mention Cai Wenyuan, who is in Cao Ying's heart in Han, Zhu Yiluan's raising of troops was too hasty, and when the news reached the ears of Cai Wenyuan, who was closed to the news, Zhu Yiluan had already entered Guangdong with 50,000 horses.
Shocked to hear that the little prince blatantly erected the banner of rebellion, Cai Wenyuan was excited and burst into tears at that time, he had been lurking in the Wuwei Sect, in order to listen to useful information through them before the little prince raised troops. Although I haven't seen an inch of success in the past few years, this mission has always been shouldered.
Now that the little prince has erected the banner, his mission is naturally over, and what he needs to do is to return to his side as soon as possible to seek a great cause.
It's a pity that Zhu Yiluan was defeated too quickly, and before Cai Wenyuan could plan a safe escape, the news of his defeat and death came again, and it was perfect to describe Cai Wenyuan's expression at that time as dumbfounded.
In fact, it was not only him who was stunned at the time, even Zhao Wenyi was stunned for a long time when he heard the news, according to reliable grapevine, the sect leader was furious that day, and he almost overturned the backyard after not doing anything for many years.
If you want to ask why, you have to talk about the plan in Zhao Wenyi's heart, originally according to the strategy he and Zheng Shanchuan set, that is, to first take down the pseudo-mask of Zhu Yiluan, the king and grandson, and force him to rebel.
Zhu Yiluan has prepared a lot over the years, but others don't know that Zhao Wenyi, a colleague, knows that once he puts up the banner of rebellion, he will definitely make the government south of the Yangtze River a mess, which is the best opportunity for himself.
Taking advantage of the moment when he attracted all his attention, he could start the preparations for the rebellion unscrupulously, and when he was ready, no matter who had the upper hand between him and the imperial court, the troops of the entire Jiangnan would definitely be concentrated in a certain place, and at that time, he would choose a suitable place and erect a banner, which would be enough to form a three-legged situation.
If things go well, he will attack the city and plunder the land alone, first of all, he must take the city of Nanjing, the land of Longxing, if the imperial army can't resist it, he can join forces with Zhu Yiluan to fight the enemy, and there will definitely be no problem with self-protection at that time.
It's just that before Zhao Wenyi could finish half of the preparations, the news of Zhu Yiluan's defeat and killing came, and seeing such a great opportunity disappear like this, how could Zhao Wenyi, who had been waiting for so many years, not be like thunder.
After this incident, Cai Wenyuan, who was in Cao Ying's heart in Han, was dead-hearted, and he no longer dared to use his conspiracy and tricks, so he made up his mind to follow Zhao Wenyi with all his heart, after all, after many years of friendship, although he betrayed him, he did not do anything too uncontrollable, and now he corrects it in time, and he will forgive himself.
He is dead, Zhao Wenyi at this time is also dead, Zhu Yiluan, who is so powerful in his eyes, failed so quickly, which is enough to confirm the power of the imperial court, no matter how much he learns, he is very likely to follow in his footsteps!
According to Zhao Wenyi's disheartened thoughts at that time, he stopped the rebellion, and from now on he would be a soil emperor behind closed doors, and this life would be comfortable.
But things were unexpected again, the party struggle in the court finally entered the white heat, and what was even more gratifying was that Shen Chongming, who made him the most fearful, was kicked out of the court.
At that moment, Zhao Wenyi's heart was surging, and he made up his mind to carry out his rebellion to the end.
