Chapter 388: Thirteen Years of Chongzhen
Time flies, the world seems to return to a short period of peace, the Manchu Qing Dynasty seems to have no courage to go south, the thieves have also been completely recruited, as if the troubled times have ended, the Ming Dynasty has been completely prosperous, Chongzhen feels so, especially Zhang Xianzhong quelled the rebellion of the five battalions of the Revolution, the number of troops has reached 120,000 and he doesn't care at all, the other party has been completely loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and also destroyed the five kings of the left among the thieves, and the heads of the five people sent to the capital seem to be the most reassuring votes. Anyway, Chongzhen thinks so, because of this, Zhang Xianzhong has a bad reputation among the thieves, but his reputation among the people is better, but the other party's request to enter Sichuan to protect the southwest border of Sichuan Shuyong Town for the Ming Dynasty He did not agree, and Qin Liangyu, Zuo Liangyu, and the Shandong general soldiers explained to him that Zhang Xianzhong's harm made him in a dilemma, and the matter was frozen here.
The three words of luxury Chongming hung over his head, so that he was always vigilant here, if Zhang Xianzhong entered this place, not only the other party was sealed in the mountains, but all the ethnic groups in the southwest would be well contained by him, but the people in the mainland on the side gave him a walk made him feel that the other party was not so easy to believe, thieves, tigers and wolves.
"Big companion, Daming has been prosperous, Li Zicheng is still in Shangluo Mountain at the moment, Zhang Xianzhong has surrendered, and Ge Zuo is dead! The other thieves are trivial! Chongzhen smiled, the stove in the house warmed his body, and the comfort he had never felt before made him want to lie down and sleep well.
"Your Majesty is mighty, and the thieves are naturally invincible" Wang Chengen said, Chongzhen laughed when he heard it, and sat on the bench, and looked at a stack of music folds in the room and said, "Burn all these walks" He said to Wang Chengen, Wang Chengen said strangely: "These are all the twists and turns of the general soldiers from all over the country?" ”
"Hmm," Chongzhen nodded and said, "Let me beware of Zhang Xianzhong?" He already has five heads to prove his loyalty! There was a smile in his eyes, but Wang Chengen smiled helplessly, and said: "Your Majesty, the thieves are inconsistent, and you don't know if they will come back!" He understands the poison of thieves, but Chongzhen doesn't care at all.
"Resurgence? There are hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers under the command of my commanders! How dare they rise again! Chongzhen laughed, how to recover? Zhang Xianzhong is not a confidant of the Ming Dynasty! Luo Rucai is a talent that needs to be guarded against! "In his heart, no matter how powerful Zhang Xianzhong is, he is not as powerful as Luo Rucai, although this person is crazy, he is the elder of the thief army! The person who coordinates the relationship between the thieves and the army from all walks of life, he is Chongzhen's henchman! Luo Rucai is not only strong, but also has the relationship of coordinating the thief army, once saved Li Zicheng's life, and has a high prestige in the righteous army.
"This?" Wang Chengen sighed helplessly and said: "Your Majesty, I heard that Zhang Xianzhong got the grain and grass of Gezuo in Gucheng, and he is recruiting troops and horses, originally he had 110,000 elite soldiers, but this time it has reached the number of 120,000, and they are all old thieves who have experienced a hundred battles!" "What's even more worrying is that there is no shortage of firearms soldiers in the other party's military camp, and the rifle rake hand that only the Ming army has, and the three-eyed gunner also appeared in this loyal army.
"How can it be! There is Zheng Chong's Shaanxi Qin army near Gucheng, and then there is Zuo Liangyu's army outside, how dare he judge! "As in history, Chongzhen did not kill Zhang Xianzhong in Gucheng, but let it develop, Zhang Xianzhong, who only had 40,000 soldiers and horses in history, but at this moment he annexed Gezuo and had an army of 120,000!
Wang Chengen sighed helplessly, Your Majesty has suffered the loss of these thieves and rebelled once or twice, why do you still believe in the thieves so much, is it because of the southwest border proposed by the other party! He didn't understand and understood Chongzhen's stubbornness.
Chongzhen smiled kindly again, took out a bottle from the side, opened the stopper and instantly dispersed a fragrance, his brows were evacuated, and said: "This is the perfume given by my emperor, this is really a strange thing in the world!" The fragrance is incomparable! It's even more fragrant than the perfume in my palace! Qi'er has really grown up. ”
Wang Chengen hugged his fists and said: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has successfully gained a firm foothold in Nanjing, and the families that have been all over the south of the Yangtze River have been completely powerful!" His Royal Highness's 150,000 troops are training day and night, and they will do something in the future! ”
"The land south of the Yangtze River is extremely rich, and there are many general soldiers from all over the country, He Tengjiao, Gao Jie, Liu Liangzuo, Zhang Huangyan," Chongzhen muttered these names, and his mood became even heavier. He said, "These people take no food, alas! ”
Seeing Chongzhen suddenly hurt his nerves, Wang Chengen went to bring tea and said: "Your Majesty, when His Royal Highness rises, the towns in the south of the Yangtze River will inevitably surrender, and then collect military power, wouldn't it be wonderful." ”
Chongzhen nodded, his eyes looked at the south, although he was talking about the towns in the south of the Yangtze River, what he was thinking about was Qin Xiaochuan in the north of the Yangtze River, the Daming Guogong who began to collect protection fees at sea from this year.
**********
In the early morning, a touch of sunshine shone on his face, and he got up and put on a coat, has it been thirteen years since Chongzhen! The weather in January was so cold, wearing a thick white cloak wrapped around herself, Mrs. Chu, Xiangyi was in Shunchang Fort, even Chen Yuanyuan was already there, but this Jinan Mansion Chief Soldier Yamen looked very deserted.
Walking out of the house, Leah had been waiting for a long time, she was wearing a snow-white dress, not cold at all, Xiao Chuan was very surprised, it turned out that women's cold resistance skills are inherited, she looked at Xiao Chuan's face and said, "What's wrong?" Ogawa? "Her face was a little blushing when she was seen!
"It's okay!" Xiaochuan walked, Leah followed behind and wanted to say something, but seeing that the other party had already walked out, he had to chop his feet and follow.
There was a crisp sound of Tata's high heels behind him, and he said, "Let's go to Wangjiabao outside the city today!" Ogawa said.
"Huh? How to go where" Leah frowned, Xiao Chuan said: "Because soon the Tuntian army from all over the country will be transferred to Henan" Because a very ridiculous scene in the history of Chinese warfare is about to happen, the Shaanxi general army besieged Li Zicheng According to the ancients, leaving a gap so that the other party could not fight back with all his strength to encircle the three missing one, and the other party broke through along the gap! Surrounded by three missing one, the other party found a way to escape from that mile, and then the drought in Henan, he would easily pull up tens of thousands of troops there, and then Shandong would inevitably have to guard against the attack of thieves in the south.
He gave the court a piece of Zhang Song fold like a stone sinking into the sea, Zhang Xianzhong still surrendered, or no one cared about him, when the time came, this unlucky thief in history, but at the moment he was not unlucky at all, but smooth sailing, who knows what he will be like in the future, if he is allowed to Yongzhen southwest border, then it will not be him to guard against soldiers and horses in the southwest, as well as Vietnam, Burma and other places, but to bring people from these places in!
I think a lot about it today, I have a Manchu friend who is already a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect who wears Hanfu, and he will have to grow his hair after being a soldier in the future, he can already write calligraphy, but he is a Manchu but he is promoting Chinese civilization. Reflecting on our Han nationality itself, often the contradictions between the north and the south in a region can make people quarrel. It's better to transfer the limited energy from being a keyboard warrior, to really wear Hanfu, buy a few books to see, practice calligraphy, and really inherit culture, although I am poor, but I can still do it by buying an ordinary Hanfu, and I will wear Hanfu at home in the future, and the real essence of Han culture is not the appearance is a book, if you want to be an official, you can buy a book of Zeng Guofan's family, if you want to take advantage of the tongue, you can buy this Guiguzi, and if you don't handle interpersonal relationships well, you can buy this Analects, speaking of which I thought of the Chinese class in high school, I talked about Zhou Yi twice in class, As a result, he was called a half-immortal by his classmates. Under popular science, Zhou Yi was a philosophical book in ancient times, talking about the laws of nature, and the truth of life has nothing to do with fortune telling. Why don't you bemoan the extinction of culture every day, why not think about how to revive it! Anger and the lack of Han culture, why not think about how to make him prosperous again!
