589 Second Joint Meeting (Third Update)
More than an hour later, Emperor Chongzhen returned to the Forbidden City and thought about it seriously.
The original plan, Chongzhen's focus in the second half of the third year, was to open the sea ban, that is, open source, to inject enough vitality into the Zhongxing of the Ming Dynasty.
But now it seems that Jianyu obviously attaches great importance to the reaction of the Hetao. Judging from the information fed back by Qian Fugui, it should be that he will do everything he can to sabotage the Ming Dynasty's occupation of the Hetao.
But Emperor Chongzhen understood that in order to stabilize the situation in Qin and Jin, prevent the disaster victims from being displaced, prevent the people of the Ming Dynasty from starving all over the wilderness, and prevent the history of thieves from repeating itself, this Hetao must not be lost. And just as Jianyu was worried about, the war horses of the Ming Dynasty will no longer worry about it in the future, and the combat power of the Ming Dynasty will definitely be greatly improved.
Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen had a choice, and he also made up his mind, and immediately issued an order, the celebrant supervisor, the cabinet, the six Shangshu and the commander of the East Factory Wang Chengen, and the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Liu Xingzuo, gathered in the Wenhua Palace. In the chat group, another temporary group was pulled, and Liu Wang's, Wei Mulan, Li Guo, and Lu Ruipeng were pulled into the group respectively, and asked them to inform Sun Chengzong, Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou and Xue Guoguan to put down what they were doing and prepare for a meeting. Of course, Wang Chengen and Liu Xingzuo are also in the temporary group, responsible for communicating inside and outside the group.
As soon as they saw this posture, Liu Xingzuo and others, who had already had one experience, knew that the emperor was going to have a major matter to discuss again. After that meeting, the strategy of the Guanning Army feint and the Dongjiang Army to raid Liaodong was set, and a great victory was achieved!
However, Wen Tiren was a little misunderstood, and when he saw this posture, he couldn't help but wonder a little. It stands to reason that no matter how big the matter of opening the sea ban is, it shouldn't be so high-standard, right?
After Emperor Chongzhen saw that everyone was on the throne, he said solemnly: "I received news from Liaodong, after the slave chieftain Emperor Taiji ascended the throne as emperor, I learned that my Ming Dynasty occupied the Hetao ......."
He gave a detailed explanation of the information that Qian Fugui had reported, and then announced: "I have made up my mind, and we must not allow Jianyu to destroy the good situation of the Hetao!" Next, the focus of the imperial court will be how to deal with Jianyu, which will inevitably drag Jianyu in Liaodong and make it unable to move! ”
As soon as he heard this, Wen Tiren was a little anxious at first, and hurriedly played: "Your Majesty, the matter of opening the sea ban is already on the bow, if this is changed to deal with Jianyu with all his might, then what about this matter of opening the sea ban?" ”
These days, the cabinet has been busy with the matter of opening the sea ban, and has put a lot of effort into it. The decree is ready, waiting to be announced.
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he said his thoughts again, and then said undoubtedly: "The sea ban is still to be opened, and after the holy decree is issued, let Governor He Qiaoyuan prepare first." All the manpower and material resources of the imperial court must be used to deal with Jianyu. ”
If it were another emperor, maybe he wouldn't have such great courage and wouldn't attach so much importance to the Hetao. But for Emperor Chongzhen from later generations, he probably knows the historical changes in the future, if he doesn't solve the continuous famines, even if Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong have been recovered now, he will still run out of Zhang Zicheng and Li Xianzhong. Civil strife together, the people of the Ming Dynasty suffered, and all the national strength of the Ming Dynasty was consumed!
Or others will think that it doesn't matter, it's just that more people die. As long as you are ruthless, you will be killed as soon as you rebel, and you will not have the kindness of a woman, and maybe you can solve the problem. But Emperor Chongzhen can't do it, as the supreme ruler of the Ming Dynasty, he must be responsible for the people below, which may be the influence of later generations!
After Emperor Chongzhen finished speaking, he looked at Shoufu with a tired look on his face, knowing that he had worked hard all these times and had indeed put in a lot of effort, so he said to Wen Tiren: "Wen Qing doesn't have to worry, the matter of opening the sea ban will be handled by Governor He and Governor Sun, and it should be okay." I will send some heaven-level spies over again, and if there is any movement, the Jingshi side will know immediately! ”
The emperor said this, and Wen Tiren was no longer entangled, and bowed down and responded: "The emperor is wise!" ”
Looking at the first assistant and the emperor's questions and answers, there was actually a bitter force in his heart, and he was actually self-strict. He, the Ming housekeeper, naturally likes to open the sea ban from the heart, after all, it is a measure to get money, but the matter of dealing with Jianyu is like flowing money, the court can finally breathe a sigh of relief, and his own household secretary will be worried next!
Emperor Chongzhen didn't care about the thoughts of the courtiers below, and told his thoughts: "I have thought that if I want to nail Jianyu to Liaodong, I must make Jianyu feel that the Ming Dynasty has a serious threat to him. And this threat will always exist until we have the ability to deal with Jianyu. What do you think? ”
It is unrealistic to say that the Ming Dynasty can destroy Jianyu now, at least the senior officials of the Ming Dynasty present have this understanding. But it seems that it is still difficult to make Da Ming always pose a serious threat to Jianyu.
Wang Chengen suddenly said: "Lu Zhongcheng, the governor of Denglai, said that he can lead the hussar battalion across Liaodong to contain the military strength of Jianyu. ”
Liu Xingzuo also spoke: "Elder Sun Ge said that he could make the Guan Ning army make an attack posture as last time to attract the main force of Jianyu. ”
Shang Shushen of the Ministry of War listened to this, frowned and thought for a while, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that with the two armies of Dongjiang and Guanning alone, it may be possible to hold back some of the prisoners. However, Jianlu also has allies from the Mongol tribes, and they don't need too many men, and if they go on an expedition to the Naturalized City, it will also have a serious impact on the Hetao region! ”
At this time, there was actually a consensus among the Ming Dynasty, that is, in the case of a field battle, the Ming army might not be the opponent of Jianyu.
Hearing his speech, everyone nodded. The emperor has already said just now that Jianyu has also newly compiled the Eight Banners of the Han Army, and there will be the Eight Banners of Mongolia, and he will also plunder the wild Jurchens. The strength of this captive army, at least in numbers, will be greater than the above. Relying on the Guanning and Dongjiang Ming armies alone, it was really impossible to hold back all their troops.
Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly when he heard this: "I still have a new army in my hand, I have just gone to inspect it, and I can be sure that the combat strength of the new army can fight with Jianyu." It's just that the number of people is too small, and they can't face several times the Jianyu head-on! ”
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback. They usually don't pay much attention to the new army, after all, there are only more than 5,000 people. The emperor was young, and he wanted to toss, so he tossed away. I didn't think about this toss, but I actually said that I could fight with Jianyu?
Emperor Chongzhen didn't care about their surprise, but asked the question he wanted to solve: "I want to know, if the new army captures a city in Liaodong and nails it to the hinterland of Liaodong, can we achieve the effect we want?" ”
