After hearing the emperor's answer, Sun Chengzong silently swallowed back the words he wanted to persuade. yes, there's nothing bigger about disaster relief right now. Compared with the party struggle that may endanger the good situation of the Ming Dynasty, the northern disaster victims who cannot find a way to survive are now the biggest threat to directly shake the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

In the event of an accident in Henan Province, where the drought is most severe, the north-south transportation channel can be cut off almost instantly. After the revolt, the disaster victims did not cut off the north-south transportation channel, but instead rushed directly south into the almost defenseless capital and southern region, which was enough to make the whole country unstable, and directly wiped out the achievements of more than ten years of construction.

Sun Chengzong has always been a very stable person in politics, and rarely makes remarks that disagree with the emperor. Even if he thought there was something wrong with the emperor's approach, he would wait for an opportunity to communicate privately, rather than pointing it out directly in public. That's why the Emperor of the Apocalypse, as a disciple, has always trusted this teacher so much. This is also the reason why Chongzhen was able to hand over the Army General Staff to him with peace of mind and never felt anything to worry about.

It has been almost 12 years since Zhu Youzhen ascended the throne, and in these years, Zhu Youzhen's administration has hardly had problems in the general direction, and there may be some minor problems in the details, but it cannot cover up his achievements in power. Sun Chengzong felt that even if he made these guidelines for governing the country by himself, he might not be better than the young emperor.

Since the emperor was still confident at this time, and still grasped the most critical issue of the Ming Dynasty, Sun Chengzong felt that he and the ministers were still a little shallow, so there was no need for him to say anything on the issue of the Duke of Qian.

So Sun Chengzong quickly changed the topic and mentioned the things he was most concerned about these days, "Since Your Majesty has made a decision on this matter, then the old minister has nothing to say."

However, the old minister came to see His Majesty today, not just to discuss the matter of the Duke of Qianguo with His Majesty. The old minister also wanted to ask His Majesty, what did His Majesty think of the fact that Ulaanbaatar Governor Amin and Chahanhot Governor Gunchuktaiji attacked each other and Houjin fornication? ”

Hearing Sun Chengzong mention this matter, Zhu Youzhen also subconsciously reached out and pressed his temple, and then replied loudly: "Mr. asked me what I think?" I thought that Chahanhot and Ulaanbaatar were both border cities far away from the capital, and these two places were inconvenient to communicate with the capital, so the power of the generals stationed in them was almost the same as that of the king of a country.

In such a place where the emperor is far away, and his hands have almost unlimited power, even if the Han generals who were loyal to the imperial court in the past stay for a long time, they will also breed some thoughts that should not be there, not to mention Amin and Gunchuktaiji, two ambitious people.

Sir should have read the report submitted by the Military Intelligence Agency, whether it is Amin or Gunchuktaiji, in fact, both of them have been in contact with the envoys sent by Houjin since last year. Amin and Nam Chu, the son of Delgeltaiji of the Yeh tribe, met four times, and Gonchuk Taiji and Nanchu seven times, but none of them took the initiative to report to the court and me.

There is not much information about this Nanchu, but Huang Taiji can transfer his Donggong Fujin Borzigit clan to this person, so it can be seen that he must be his confidant. The two met privately with Huang Taiji's henchmen, but concealed it from the court, and they accused each other of fornicating with Houjin, but they were really right.

However, this also proves that Huang Taiji is not sure that he will really win over the two, so he simply lures the two to attack each other, so that the court will be suspicious of the Chahar tribe and the surrendered Jurchens, so as to expect us to make a wrong judgment and let the Chahar tribe and the surrendered Jurchens turn away from the court. ”

Sun Chengzong nodded again and again, and echoed: "The old minister's opinion is the same as Your Majesty's, if the Manchu Qing Dynasty has already rebelled against the two, it will not be so fanfare and arouse the attention of our country."

It's just that since the two have brought the lawsuit to His Majesty, it means that the two sides have become inseparable. The imperial court is now difficult to deal with, once it favors one side, the other side is estimated to defect.

Chen thought that it was best to lure the two back to the capital and deal with them slowly, so that the turmoil of the border army would be minimized. But this also requires someone who can be trusted by the two to persuade them, otherwise it may make the two of them jump off the wall in a hurry, and things will go bad.

In addition, since the Manchu Qing side wants to rebel against the two, it shows that their ambitions for the Ming Dynasty have not stopped, and they are just accumulating strength and waiting for a suitable time to attack our country.

Therefore, when we sent people to Chahanhot and Ulaanbaatar to persuade Gunchuktaiji and Amin to return to Beijing, the Manchu side would certainly not sit idly by, and this was another problem. I wonder what His Majesty thinks about this? ”

Zhu Youzhen pondered for a long time with his chin in his hand, and then said, "I've been thinking about this question for the past two days. In my opinion, this matter should be started from both internal and external aspects.

This is what Mr. said, how to transfer Amin and Gonchuktaiji from their current positions, and cut off Huang Taiji's thoughts.

However, I do not approve of the two of them being transferred back to the capital together, Chahanhot and Ulaanbaatar are the first line to resist the Manchu invasion of the steppe, and I am afraid that the removal of the two main generals at once will still cause confusion in the minds of the local army.

What's more, the garrison in Ulaanbaatar also has the heavy responsibility of controlling the three Khalkha departments in Mobei, and it is not appropriate to have a person with a reputation in charge.

For Amin and Gunchuktaiji, Amin is even more difficult to surrender to Huang Taiji. First, his blue-inlaid banner subordinates had been embezzled by Huang Taiji, and it was impossible for Huang Taiji to return this part of his power to him, and it was impossible for Huang Taiji to recognize the principle of the co-governance of the four major Baylors;

Since the death of Mang Gurtai, Huang Taiji has made a big move against the Zhenglan Banner and disposed of many generals of the Blue Banner, and the two sides can be described as overwhelming. Even if Amin wanted to surrender, the soldiers under the Blue Banner would not follow him so easily.

Thirdly, the reason why Ulaanbaatar can exist is completely dependent on the supply of materials from the mainland, and Ulaanbaatar actually depends on the trade interests of the mainland with the people of Mobei and Linzhi to survive. As long as we cut off this trade route, Amin will not be able to feed these people at all.

Therefore, as long as Amin's brain is not broken, he is at most a separatist party, and he is only left and right between the Manchus and me. For today's Daming, as long as Amin does not join forces with Huang Taiji, even if he is allowed to occupy Ulaanbaatar, it is bearable.

After all, Mobei is a bitter cold land, and even Khalkha Mongolia is difficult to survive, and it is impossible for Amin to have any development prospects here. As long as we clean up the Oirat Mongolia, we can get the Mobei region back with our backhand.

Of course, we can't do nothing, and Amin and Erli are strong together, and weak when they are separated. What I mean is that by setting up the territory of General Uriya Sutai to the west of Mobei in advance, and letting Erli be appointed General of Uriya Sutai, it can not only spy on the Khalkha Mongols, but also make Amin lose an arm. to reduce the likelihood of Amin's rebellion. ”

Sun Chengzong thought for a while, then nodded and said, "The old minister thinks it's feasible, so what should I do here with Gunchuk Taiji?" ”

"After all, Gonchuktaiji is a relative of the Chahar tribe and the brother-in-law of Lin Dan Khan, and with his identity, he can still confuse some Mongolian tribes to follow him.

Once this place is broken by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, not only Mongol will be directly threatened by the Qing army, but the connection between the interior and Ulaanbaatar may also be severed.

So, since Gunchuktaiji is no longer reliable, we naturally have to replace it. Although Gonchuktaiji has a high prestige in the Chahar Ministry, he is not a member of the Golden Family after all, and he can't let the Chahars follow him unconditionally.

With Guiyingcha stationed in Hohhot, the Chahar headquarters naturally would not turn its back on the imperial court because of the rebellion of Gonchuktaiji. Therefore, the only people to worry about are the Chahars and the Mongol tribes in the Chahanhot region.

Lin Dan Khan's son, Ezhe, was 18 years old, and I thought it was time for him to meet his own people. What I mean is to send someone to escort Ezhe to inspect Hohhot and Chahanhot, on the one hand, to appease the hearts of the Chahar people, and on the other hand, to take this opportunity to make Gonchuk Taiji return to Beijing to take up his post.

As long as there are no problems, this should be the least costly way to recall Gonchuktaiji. ”

Sun Chengzong was silent for a long time before he asked Chongzhen: "Can Ezhe really be used by my Ming Dynasty?" ”

Zhu Youzhen was silent for a moment before he said in a dull voice: "If he is not reliable, then he should also die at the hands of the Mongols, not at our hands." At least we now have a spare tire and Lin Dan Khan's widow to counterbalance him, and it's not too much to take a risk now. If Ezhe could accept the reality, the process of integrating the Mongol tribes into the Ming Dynasty would be simpler, and the benefits of this matter would be incalculable. ”

Sun Chengzong was also stunned, but he quickly ignored Chongzhen's arrangements for Ezhe's life just now, and continued to ask the emperor: "Then for the Manchu Qing, how does Your Majesty plan to prevent them from continuing to woo and support Amin and Gunchuktaiji?" ”

Zhu Youzhen did not answer him immediately, but turned his head to ask Lu Qi for a piece, and then handed it to Sun Chengzong and said; "This is the latest news from Shenyang, sir can take a look at it first.

More than two years ago, the Social Investigation Department borrowed the name of the Four Seas Trading Company in Shenyang to bury a mine for the Manchu Qing Dynasty. This summer, the mine was detonated. At the beginning, we dug a hole for the Manchu Qing through the Manchu banking and stock exchange market...

In May of this year, this financial game of beating drums and passing flowers finally could not be played, Fan Yongdou ran away, and the stock of the Shenyang Stock Exchange plummeted, and the Daqing Yuan once fell to one-twelfth of the face value, and the shops in the market began to refuse to accept the Daqing Yuan banknotes..."
