"Is this annoying?"

Yang Qing said casually: "I can't stand it when I uncover the old bottom? Yes, I just don't know the rules, I'm so rude and reckless, but I won't deceive Your Majesty with flattering words! ”

He was able to wake Chongzhen with a hammer.

The plan to borrow troops to suppress the Kou was indeed very deceptive, and the Manchus were still only a border trouble, although Huang Taiji also entered the border and plundered the Kou, but the size of their population made it difficult for people to believe that they would be able to enter the Central Plains. Although at this time most of the Mongolian tribes outside the Guanwai were subservient to it, and theoretically the Manchu control area had reached Daibei, the Mongol tribes could only be said to be vassal, and if possible, they would secede at any time, or even turn hostile, and the actual control area of the Manchu Qing was still the northeast, plus the Horqin tribes at most. In the severe cold of this Xiaoice period, they are actually very difficult, if it were not for the smuggling of blood transfusions by traitors such as Jin merchants, even the current population would not be able to feed.

To say that they have the ability to enter the Central Plains, even Chongzhen probably doesn't believe this.

It's a snake swallowing an elephant!

On the contrary, Li Zicheng really wants to stabilize the north, and then recuperate for a few years, but he is fully capable of this, his power has reached Huaibei, and the rest is nothing more than a large army along the canal, the Han River down, and Zhang Xianzhong controls Sichuan, and can also go down the river out of the Three Gorges, which is the case in the north and south in the past dynasties.

So what if Chongzhen is tempted?

But this kind of thing is not easy to persuade.

Because for Chongzhen, it is definitely useless to talk about national righteousness or something, so you can only start from other aspects, first, Zhu Yuanzhang's expulsion of the Tartars is the foundation for the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, as the Ming Emperor, if he borrows troops from the Tartars, it will be an insult to the ancestors, to put it bluntly, it is to use Chongzhen's self-esteem, he is still very serious in this regard, and second, it is to use his current extreme distrust of the ministers and even full of hatred, so that he understands that these rescuers are actually no different from the essence of those in Beijing who betrayed him and hunted him down.

It's all a raccoon dog.

It's all rhetoric to deceive him, but in fact they are betraying him.

It is clear that Yang Qing succeeded.

"Don't say it, Yang Qing is young and reckless, but he still has loyalty, it's just that he doesn't choose what he says!"

Chongzhen said.

"Your Majesty......"

Zhang Ruoqi still wanted to speak.

What does it mean to be unscrupulous? Do you mean he's right in his heart, but he doesn't speak well?

"Zhang Qing is also loyal, but borrowing troops is a big matter, or from a long-term perspective, now the top priority is to move the capital to Nanjing first, even if you borrow troops, but also get Nanjing later, you wait to return to Wang Qing, he is the governor of Ji Liao, I will give Li Zicheng another holy decree, he will continue to stay in Ji Liao, if he really borrows troops, it can also be presided over by him."

Chongzhen interrupted him and said very perfunctorily.

Regardless of whether to borrow troops or not, the most important thing now is to go to Nanjing, as long as he goes to Nanjing, he will be in no danger in a short time, as for how to toss in the north in the future.

Zhang Ruoqi was dumbfounded.

He has gone to Nanjing, so what is the use of Wang Yongji even if he stays in office?

Li Zicheng will soon replace all the defenders on the front line of the Great Wall with his own cronies, and then transfer the troops of Wu Sangui and others from Shanhaiguan to the interior. In the past, they were able to enter because the Ming army was too bad, and there were such strange things as Yuandudu, but if the Great Wall line was replaced by Li Zicheng's tiger and wolf soldiers, it would really become an impregnable wall, and it would be nonsense if Dolgon still wanted to open the defense line.

Then the northern gentry, including his hometown of Shandong, could only suffer under Li Zicheng's Bao government.

It was better to die than to die.

If it's just to torture some property, everyone can barely endure it, but his slogan is Juntian free grain, and at this time, the free food has not yet started! Once Li Zicheng stabilized the situation and took full control of the north, what should he do if he started to free food? It's completely unbearable, and this scourge must be removed.

And the only way to eliminate it is to borrow troops to suppress the Kou.

And if you want to borrow troops, there is only the window period of the next few days, and you must rush before the Shun army led by Tian Jianxiu arrives at Shanhaiguan, and Chongzhen will send another holy decree to overthrow it and send it to Wu Sangui and others, they use this as an excuse to block Tian Jianxiu and ask for help from Dolgon, during which they stick to Shanhaiguan and wait for Dolgon's reinforcements to arrive.

The latter departed from Shenyang, and it is estimated that it will take no more than ten days to arrive, plus the envoys on the road and their decision-making time, at most twenty days.

It will also take time for Li Zicheng to send troops.

In this way, Wu Sangui and others held on to Shanhaiguan for more than ten days, and they could wait until Dolgon's army and then join forces inside and outside, and break Li Zicheng's army in one fell swoop, and then Dolgon led the Qing army and Wu Sangui's army to pursue and go straight to Beijing, along the way the gentry ate pot pulp to welcome Wang Shi, so that basically there will be no more accidents in the entire north, including Shandong, the gentry can be prosperous in the Eight Wilderness and Xiange, Li Zicheng will surrender to the south of the Yellow River or return to his hometown in Guanzhong, as for the last Qing Dynasty or Ming Dynasty in Hebei and Shandong, It's really not very important anymore.

Anyway, if you can get rid of Li Zicheng's clamping stick, it's okay.

But how do you play it now?

This first step can't be played, without Chongzhen's holy decree, even if Wu Sangui wants to do it, he can't explain it to his subordinates! His subordinates are not only his house slaves, most of his subordinates are actually the guards of Tuntian in the Liaodong area, these people don't understand anything else, but they understand the holy decree, and Wu Sangui is already between the two, and his father is still in the hands of Li Zicheng!

Similarly, it was difficult for Gao Di to raise the banner of rebellion.

After all, Gao Di's subordinates are also the guards recruited in the eastern Hebei area, and these people only recognize the holy decree, not to mention that at this time, another Shun army led by Tang Tong is also rushing to Shanhaiguan, and he is the previous general soldier of Jizhen, and he has a friendship with those generals in Shanhaiguan. When the time comes, the gold and silver that have just been plundered from the hands of those officials in Beijing will be waved in front of those generals in Shanhaiguan, and then their official positions will be secured, and they will be even more unlikely to participate in such a thing.

It can be said that Chongzhen's holy decree is the premise of everything, and now that Chongzhen does not cooperate, then there is no way to play at all.

Could it be that he has lived that dark life under Li Zicheng since then?

Zhang Ruoqi is full of grief and indignation!

"Then the north depends on you!"

Yang Qing smiled and said to them.

He smiled a little bit of a little smirk.

Li Yutian looked at him indifferently, and although Li Xixin had impeached him, it didn't seem that the impact was too big, only Zhang Ruoqi could be said to be like a mourner, completely stunned by this result.

"Where are they?"

Yang Qing asked Lao Wang curiously.

"Li Yutian, Shaanxi Qianzhou, Li Xixin, Shaanxi Qingyang Yele Castle."

Lao Wang said.

"Ah, it's a broken jar!"

Yang Qing said clearly.

His voice was not small, at least Li Yutian and the two could hear it, and the two of them stood there somewhat awkwardly.

It doesn't matter if the jar is broken, or if the jar is broken, anyway, Chongzhen doesn't agree with them, and these people can only stare dryly, and Chongzhen will not agree, he sends a holy decree very simply, even if he continues to run away to Nanjing after sending the holy decree, in fact, Zhang Ruoqi asked for this, they didn't think about taking Chongzhen to Shanhaiguan.

But the consequences will have to be borne by him.

The next result is that these people succeeded in borrowing troops, and then Dolgon's army went south and partnered with Wu Sangui to defeat Li Zicheng and recapture Beijing, and even killed Li Zicheng, but will Dolgon return the territory to the Ming Dynasty? This is obviously impossible, so Chongzhen will still lose the north, and he will have to bear the notoriety of insulting his ancestors and treachery. Those northern gentry who have become enemies with him may really surrender to Dolgon and then attack the south together as Yang Qing said, and they can't even stop Li Zicd, how can they stop them at that time? Of course, Dolgon alone has no ability to swallow elephants, but the convergence of Dolgon and the northern gentry can really hit Nanjing.

At that time, as Yang Qing said, it was impossible for him to be a prisoner.

If they just beat Li Zicheng......

This is actually the most likely, and I was even more unlucky at that time.

Li Zicheng, who hated his treachery, would definitely vent his anger after being driven out of Beijing, such as leading his army to attack the south of the Yangtze River, anyway, he was already in Huaibei at this time, and in the case that the north could not do Dorgon, it was okay to expand to the south, and the rest was nothing more than to go straight to the Yangtze River, if he fought the Yangtze River, it would not be a vassal like now, but really give himself a white silk.

If Li Zicheng wins Dolgon......

Not to mention, he who stabilized the rear just used this as an excuse to attack Nanjing in a big way.

So no matter how you calculate it, Chongzhen will not get any benefits in borrowing troops to suppress the Kou, it can only be said that he has done something good for the northern gentry, unless he hopes that the Qing army will really cut some money as Zhang Ruoqi said, Chongzhen is not naïve and ignorant to that point, it may have been possible before, but now he is no longer the fool in the past.

These guys encouraged him to do so because he didn't have to worry about the back road, and it was a big deal that they surrendered to Dolgon.

But he has no way out, except for simply venting his anger and venting his hatred for Li Zicheng, he really can't think of a reason for doing so, but for Li Zicheng's hatred, at this time he really doesn't think that this guy is more hateful than those unscrupulous Gonggong princes who put him to death, on the contrary, let Li Zicheng continue to clamp them with a stick, which makes him feel more comfortable.

Well, he has fallen.

And in the following time, Zhang Ruoqi still struggled desperately, trying to bring Chongzhen back again and again, and he even sent people out to collect a group of gentry nearby, running to kneel and cry outside, asking the emperor not to abandon them, but it was still meaningless.

Chongzhen didn't care about them.
