Recently, Emperor Chongzhen has been in a very bad mood, and he has constantly sent Jinyi Wei and court spies to Shandong, but basically there is no return.

Because not long ago, news came from there, saying that Wang Zheng had gathered several parts of the officers and soldiers in Suizhou, and slashed Liu Liangzuo, the general soldier of Luzhou, on the spot, and swore to recruit Li Zicheng.

The two of them are the same as the chief soldiers, Mo said whether Wang Zheng has the right to kill Liu Liangzuo, and even if the governor of the imperial court wants to kill the generals above the general level, he must be taught to the court in advance, and he can only be executed after a series of procedures.

Everyone can see a signal from this incident, that is, this Anton Hou has completely ignored the so-called imperial court.

Anton Hou Wang is fighting to do things, and he is doing his own thing, and now even the generals at the general level dare to kill blatantly, who will be the next bigger?

But in real terms, it's still a good thing.

In Chongzhen's eyes, there are only two thieves in the Central Plains at the moment, one is a blatant rebellion, and the other is somewhat unclear, under the banner of the imperial court, but what he does inside belongs to the same as Li Thief.

These two people should not be happy when they fight each other, but Chongzhen is not happy at all.

The important thing is that the current imperial court is capturing thieves from the north and from the south, and there are sparks everywhere to make trouble and rebellion, which cannot effectively stop the Shandong army at all.

It is said that Chongzhen has been in the inner palace for a few days, and has killed three little palace maids who made mistakes one after another, and the people in the inner palace are panicked, but no one knows whether these things are true or false, and I don't know if it is because the news from Shandong has made the emperor angry.

The chief eunuch Wang Chengen flatly denied this, claiming that there was no such thing at all, and it was completely a rumor that people with ulterior motives were not good for the court.

Jingshi's continuous investigation of the direction of Shandong, among these important ministers of Beizhili, has long been an open secret, and in some form has become an alternative propaganda.

Shandong's Wang Zheng is already a big tail, and Emperor Chongzhen's dissatisfaction with it is no longer an overnight thing, and the Shandong army has also changed from a respectful attitude to a yang and a yin disobedience.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is only a thin layer of window paper between the two sides, which will break when stabbed.

Not long ago, the court was turbulent, and Zhou Yanru, the first assistant supported by the Jiangnan scholars, was dismissed and investigated for lying about the military situation, and later Jinyiwei found a huge amount of silver taels from the Zhou Mansion, as well as evidence of corruption and bribery related to Cao Yun, which was a resounding slap in the face of all the scholars.

What is somewhat ridiculous is that after the news of this incident came out, Qian Qianyi, the head of Donglin in Nanjing, was worried all day long, closed the door to thank customers, and did not even dare to go out.

It is really not true to say that what these scholars think is not the general trend of the world at all, they were slapped by the imperial court, and what they were most enthusiastic about was to find an opportunity to fight back.

No, recently, the news that Emperor Chongzhen continued to send Jinyi guards and secret reports to Shandong came out, and the scholars couldn't care about anything else for a while, regardless of whether Wang Zheng was the target of his previous impeachment, and they began to criticize the government.

The articles and recitals continued to fly to the Winter Warm Pavilion of the Forbidden City, and the Donglin scholars were full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and their faces were full of righteous indignation.

These scholars were the former cabinet chief assistant Zhou Yanru and the general soldier of Shandong, and Wang Wang, the chief soldier of Shandong, argued about how the imperial court treated the heroes like sinners, and if this went on for a long time, the country would not be like this.

When the literati of the Shandong Military Division heard it, they thought it was very ridiculous, they didn't expect this kind of thing, it completely belonged to the imperial court and Donglin Shizi himself, and he had nothing to do there.

Many people in Jiangnan who resisted the Shandong Army are a little blindsided, and the Donglin officials in the DPRK have always been in the same pot as Anton Hou, why are they wearing the same pants this time?

This kind of thing is exactly what Chongzhen is most afraid of happening, Zhou Yanru can go to prison, because this is a literati, he doesn't have any real power, he can do whatever he wants.

But that Wang Zheng is different, he is a martial artist with heavy soldiers, what is the court doing now, it is a mess, you can't lick your face and apologize, Emperor Chongzhen can't pull that face.

Having said that, the Shandong army has not taken the initiative to come up and play any big victories for a while, and it has been beheading hundreds or thousands of small victories recently, and it may be that it is useless.

Emperor Chongzhen was so anxious by the Donglin scholars that he didn't have the energy to take care of the chaos of Li Zicheng's transfer to Shaanxi and the decisive battle with Sun Chuanting.

Now what he thinks about is nothing more than how to solve this turmoil without losing royal dignity.

The movement of Beizhili's side, basically, will not be presented in a few days, and it will be presented to the Huang Taiji table as it is, and the time when the Manchu Qing side gets the news is even earlier than that in Jiangnan and Shaanxi.

Speaking of which, all of this is due to the Han Ahabs who have done their best for them and are loyal.

In fact, when the Manchus were still in the Later Jin, although they did not have artillery and heavy siege equipment, they rarely saw any fortified cities to hold.

When the guards from all over the country saw the well-dressed Eight Banners Iron Cavalry rushing over like ants, they would often be so frightened that they peed their pants and didn't have to think about the problem with their heads.

Even a very small number of Liaodong generals with a fighting spirit were like the general soldier Jun Song in the Battle of Salhu, who had no eyes in his eyes, and led a small number of cavalry out of the city to meet him.

The Houjin soldiers are not stupid, and by the time these people realized that they wanted to return to the city to hold on, they had already been surrounded on all sides, and the main generals and elites died outside the city, and the final result was nothing more than being captured by Houjin.

After a long time, there was a so-called "Jurchen man invincible" saying, in fact, Wang Zheng has always felt that this statement is very fake, saying that farting is lifting.

In the Battle of Songjin, although the Shandong army came to intervene sideways, causing the Manchus to pay unexpected heavy casualties, Emperor Chongzhen did not disappoint Huang Taiji, and he once again made the opposite decision when he made an excellent comeback.

The Shandong army that transferred away the two famous kings, the Liaodong army that stuck to Jinzhou and the court soldiers and horses of King Qinwang became headless flies, and finally the remnants of the Liaodong army were completely annihilated, Zu Dashou died in battle, and Hong Chengchou, the governor of Hebei, surrendered.

The result of the Songjin battle was not greatly affected by the wings of Wang Zheng's butterfly, and the elite of the Ming court outside the pass was lost, leaving only Wu Sangui trapped in Shanhaiguan and Ningyuan, and there was no way to fight back.

After the war, Songshan, Xingshan, Tashan and other places all fell, Huang Taiji returned to Shengjing to recuperate, and not long after, Yue led the Qing army to the north to conquer the Mongol tribes who did not obey the Manchu Qing on the grassland.

The news of this army has not come back since three months ago, but the people in Shengjing are not worried, this kind of thing is not uncommon in the past few times in the customs, it is really a normal thing.

Up to now, although there was slight friction between the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, and the Shandong Army and the Xinshun Army in the Central Plains, there was actually no major war.

However, this does not mean that even if the world is temporarily peaceful, the Xinshun army was transferred to Shaanxi, and the Shandong army was sworn in Xuzhou, and it is said that it entered Huguang to subdue the lost land, and the Ming court was troubled by the Donglin Party.

As for the Manchu side, to be honest, it wasn't much calm.

Huang Taiji wanted to let Dolgon enter the customs and go to the Shandong Army to take revenge more than once, but the flagmen and Baylors of the two yellow flags, two white flags and two blue flags were no longer in conflict once or twice.

This conflict has become more frequent over time, and the nobles of the Eight Banners and the Han Chinese have also been bullied recently.

For example, a few days ago, Haoge robbed a concubine of Fan Wencheng, a university scholar.

Haoge is his own son, the young master of the two yellow flags, the tiger poison does not eat the child, not to mention that Huang Taiji's health is deteriorating, and he must be cautious about his son.

Fan Wencheng was the head of the literati who descended to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and Huang Taiji understood that the Eight Banners could reach the point where they are today, and this person was indispensable, so he relied on him very much.

One of these two represents the nobles of the Eight Banners, and the other represents the Han people, and the reconciliation in the middle requires Huang Taiji's painstaking efforts, coupled with the intensifying conflict within the Eight Banners, where is there still the energy to go to the king to settle old accounts.

In the various conflicts of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the two red flags chose to shrink back and wait, silently, not speaking for this or for that.

Huang Taiji from Hetuala, the body is getting worse, in the Songjin War, there are two royal expeditions, I heard that Azig was defeated, and the Wuzhen artillery battalion that had been painstakingly operated for many years was destroyed, and the nosebleeds had been flowing for several days.

Concubine Hai Lanzhu died in Guanju Palace, and Huang Taiji didn't even see the last side, which became the last straw that crushed him.

Huang Taiji was seriously ill and often couldn't even handle the government.

Suddenly, he had a lot of inspiration, overeating, suddenly unconscious, not eating or drinking, and often chattering about Hailanzhu in his mouth.

Huang Taiji, who has always been strong, is now so old and old, which makes many people retract their necks and stop making a sound, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty is also about to come in a storm.
