In the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, the Ming army won a great victory, broke the Qing army, the Qing army was defeated, and the people were boiling, but there was still news that the news about Tsarist Russia was indeed a strict blockade. didn't spread, in Chongzhen's hands, he didn't know whether he should be happy or sad, the Qing army was destroyed, but there was another Tsarist Russia whose name he had never heard of, and it was stronger? This? Zhou Tingru on the side also had a strange face, "Your Majesty, don't worry, we are separated from them by Mobei, such a large grassland, if they go south, they can only go to Liaodong!" ”

"The top priority is North Korea" Chongzhen's face suddenly became strange, he really didn't expect that the Qingzhou Army would be so bold, directly leaving 10,000 military horses in North Korea, holding the king of North Korea hostage to fill him with logistics, such a thing, it has been so big that he doesn't know how to tell it, how could Da Ming ever hijack a subject country?

"This move is simply intolerable, North Korea and my Ming Dynasty is a brotherly state, every year tribute, and even the war has helped, this practice is tantamount to expanding the territory, and destroyed, Ming and North Korea's diplomatic relations, how should other subject countries look at us in the future, how do the world's scholars see us!" Zhou Tingru was righteous and said, "This behavior must be punished severely"

"Your Majesty can't" Wang Chengen hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "I also heard about this, at that time, General Li Yi, the lone army went deep into Liaodong, at this time there was no grain and grass, and the two ends of the North Korean head rat, refused to release grain, there is now a disaster, if you don't enter North Korea like this that day, after coercion, this army will not be able to enter North Korea at all!" ”

Zhou Tingru argued with Wang Chengen, Chongzhen wiped the sweat on his head, with a helplessness on his face, and said, "Don't talk, two Aiqing, Zhou Aiqing, that is, if Qin Xiaochuan's official is demoted, will he be affected?" Zhou Tingru was silent, even if the imperial court scolded Qin Xiaochuan to death? Will the other party react? Definitely not, the court decrees are not complied with by the other party, what is the use of this?

Chongzhen sighed, the joy is gone, the Qing army has been destroyed, then Tsarist Russia must be stronger than the Qing army, so what is the use He looked at the north, with a kind of helplessness on his face, the Qingzhou army has indeed made Chongzhen helpless, the other party's strong strength has been fearless of the imperial decrees, especially the spy report of Dongchang, his Henan New Army actually has 110,000 people, "Isn't it wrong?" Big mix? 110,000 elites? ”

"That's right, Your Majesty, the other side took Pyongyang City in just one hour and defeated the strongest elite in North Korea, one hour! captured the king of Korea and a group of ministers alive" Wang Chengen had a helplessness on his face, "These 110,000 people, not including more than 20,000 elite iron horsemen, more than 20,000 iron horsemen, detoured back to Yizhou and destroyed the grain and grass of the Qing army in Yizhou, so that there was news of the defeat of the Qing army" Wang Chenmm said.

"110,000 elites, more than 30,000 cavalry, defeated the enemy in an hour, can Qin Xiaochuan really make people out of the soil" Chongzhen didn't understand, how did the other party do it, 110,000 troops, not 110,000 peasants, more powerful is cavalry, more than 30,000 elite cavalry, cavalry, elite cavalry, how did this come out, and even Chongzhen felt that the other party would change people, that is, he directly changed people, and waved his hand to be a team of elite soldiers.

How much silver did he spend, countless silver, Chongzhen shook his head, "Zhou Aiqing, do you know how much silver I spent in Liaodong to train the Guanning Army and buy firearms?" ”

Zhou Tingru was stunned for a moment, with a strangeness on his face, and said, "This, the ministers don't know, Daming, the cost in Liaodong is varied, the amount is too large, and the ministers don't know, how much silver was spent?" ”

"How does the silver I invested in Liaodong compare to Qin Xiaochuan's Henan New Army?" Chongzhen asked with a flat face, he looked at the teacup on the table, and there was an unspeakable anger in his heart.

"It's not as good, General Qin, in Liaodong, he used the people's power of the three prefectures of Henan, which is not as good as our Ming Dynasty, and the power of the whole country" Zhou Tingru calculated and said, how to compare the land of a province with the power of the whole country.

However, he used such a large place to train 140,000 elites, defeated Shengjing, and defeated the elite of North Korea in one hour! An hour! Chongzhen roared angrily and said, "The Guan Ning Army, which is the strength of the Ming Dynasty, was pressed and beaten by others!" He said angrily, "Why, why, Zhou Tingru, you came to tell me why?" ”

"This" Zhou Tingru's head was full of cold sweat, and he immediately knelt on the ground, and said, "I don't know, the minister doesn't know" He trembled on the ground, how could he not know that Guan Ningjun was paid, so much money, I don't know how much he swallowed, and it had already become a separate interest organization, "Your Majesty, if the water is clear, there will be no fish"

"Zhou Aiqing, this water is too mixed!" Chongzhen roared angrily, and when he raised the cup on the table, it hit Zhou Tingru's face, and blood immediately flowed out of his face, and he didn't dare to speak. Wang Chengen hurriedly persuaded him.

"Humph!" Chongzhen snorted heavily, Zhou Tingru was hurriedly driven away by him, at this moment there were only two people in the room, he and Wang Chengen, the candlelight shone on Chongzhen's uncertain cheeks, "Big companion, don't persuade me, I know what I just did" Chongzhen combed heavily, "I also need to vent, I am a human being, and I can't control my emotions"

"Your Majesty has been circling hundreds of officials in the court, which is already very remarkable" Wang Chengen channeled "the nobles of the court, and even the civil officials, at this moment there is a kind of checks and balances, and this time it is all the credit of Your Majesty!" ”

"Hehe" Chongzhen shook his head and said, "My credit? Checks and balances? They're a counterbalance, but what about me? What else? Chongzhen shook his head, he had nothing left at the moment.

"The Qingzhou army is getting stronger and stronger, and the tail of the Guanning army is still big, and they are still eating my food! Zhang Xianzhong is getting stronger day by day! What's wrong with Da Ming 1"
