Chapter 801: There is no way out

In fact, there is no need for Cao Wenzhao's reminder that Yuan Chonghuan today is simply thinking about his own future and fate, and he will never appease those Mu Suman who participated in the mutiny and rebellion.

Regardless of whether they were generals and soldiers in the official armies of the three towns of the Ming Dynasty before, or the hereditary local officials who were divided at the beginning of the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, or they were just ordinary Mu Suman, Yuan Chonghuan would not appease them at this time.

Because, only by characterizing these Mu Su barbarians as the greatest enemies of the Ming Dynasty in the northwest frontier can Yuan Chonghuan retain his current position and the prestige he has left.

Originally, as the governor of the three sides, his most important mission was actually to recover the Hetao, which was also the reason and purpose for the Ming court to set up the yamen of the trilateral governor.

However, not only did he fail to do so, but when the army sent by Emperor Chongzhen marched into the Hetao, he was subject to a series of mutinies and civil unrest in the three border lands, and he had no time to take care of it.

If it had been left in the past, he Yuan Chonghuan would have already fallen to the ground, and he and several of his staff members also knew this.

Now his only life-saving straw for Yuan Chonghuan is to use the kind of worry about the problem of Mu Su Man in the Three Sides that Emperor Chongzhen himself revealed in his secret decrees again and again, and solve the problem of Mu Speed Man in the Three Sides Land once and for all as soon as possible, and use this to rebuild his prestige and regain the emperor's heart.

It is precisely because of this understanding that in front of Li Banghua and others, he will talk about the Mu Suman problem so seriously, and say what he has done so righteously.

It was also because of this that how could he accept the surrender of Po Ximu, or any of the other Musu Barbarian Rebellion generals!?

If he really did this, then not only would he slap himself in the face, but I am afraid that these trilateral generals standing in the hall now will also hate him to the core.

However, not to appease these Musu rebel generals does not mean that you can't use the thoughts of these Musu rebels to hope that the imperial court will appease and appease them, and make some articles!

Yuan Chonghuan listened to Shinshixiu's pouring out of the city, and was silent, and was noncommittal to Shanshixiu's request to open the door and surrender again to the official army, and after a while, he pointed at Shinshixiu with his hand, turned his head and said to He Renlong, who was standing on the side:

"Take this person out and settle them properly!"

As soon as Shanshixiu heard this, he probably knew that Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of the three sides, was going to discuss this matter with the people in the tent, and immediately shouted:

"Your Excellency! Your Excellency the Governor! My generation was originally a soldier of the imperial court, if the adults leave a way for my generation, my generation is willing to atone for the merits and serve the court for the adults again!

"As for the mob in the city, if the court is willing to soothe it, it will be soothed, and if it is willing to kill, it will be killed. My lord! ”

Shinshixiu was dragged out of the tent by He Renlong, and struggled to make his final request.

At the beginning of the rebellion, Po Ximu thought that one day after the imperial court deposed Yuan Chonghuan, the trilateral land would change course, so he would ask the imperial court to surrender and continue to be his court official.

However, although he had always wanted to return to the imperial court again, he never thought that he would face Yuan Chonghuan again.

He wanted to surrender, but he didn't want to ask Yuan Chonghuan to surrender, after all, the chaos in the northwest was caused by Yuan Chonghuan after he came.

Whether it is Huihui, other colored races, of course, they are not natives in the west of the Taomin River, whether it is Po Ximu who committed a mutiny in Guyuan, or Tuluntai who engaged in a mutiny in Pingliang, and even Ma Jinzhong, Ma Guangyu, Mi Layin, Ding Guodong and others in Taozhou, Minzhou, Hezhou, Ganzhou and other places, they all admit to this.

However, are you guilty of these returns because you are not a local?!

Although the ancestors of these people were the Semu people brought back by the Mongols in the westward expedition, they were born and grew up in Si, and the land under their feet has already become their homeland.

But when you Yuan Chonghuan came here, you want to change this situation, you have to recruit landless Han refugees from northern Shaanxi, Guanzhong, and even Shanxi and Henan, and come here to occupy land and open up wasteland.

In addition, you also monopolize the border trade of the Hui and support those red-haired ghosts who don't know where they come from to spread the Yi religion, have you considered the feelings of the Hui people in the land west of the Taomin River?!

A border army general like Po Ximu had never thought of rebelling against the Ming Dynasty before.

First, the northwest has always been barren, while the Ming Dynasty has a vast territory and strong strength, and in comparison, rebellion is a dead end.

Second, since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, it has been very good to them, who served as local officials in the northwest frontier in the pre-Yuan period, not only allowing them to inherit the power and status of the pre-Yuan period, but also the Ming court never interfered in the internal affairs of their settlements.

At the beginning, there were also rogue officials, but later there was no rogue officer, except for the need to obey the requisition in military affairs, the others were equivalent to giving them full power.

The guards all over the northwest frontier have been hereditary from generation to generation by these big families in the Mu Speed Barbarians, which is actually equivalent to giving them independent kingdoms.

In such a situation, there is no need for them to rebel.

Because even if you succeed in rebellion, in the end, you will only get such a result.

It's just that things are twisted like this, a Yuan Chonghuan came, and everything in the past in the northwest frontier has changed.

The reason why Po Ximu chose to launch a mutiny at the beginning was just to use this method to get the imperial court to remove Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of the three sides, and then accept the court's recruitment, and then continue to live a peaceful and peaceful life.

Moreover, according to the situation at the time, Yuan Chonghuan killed Ma Wanshou and Zhao Dayin, Ma Jinzhong killed Yang Qi, and the Trilateral Governor's Mansion also issued an order to expel and purge Mu Suman, if he didn't kill Shi Kaixian, the general of Guyuan, Shi Kaixian would kill him!

Therefore, after the mutiny, Po Ximu often thought that as long as the imperial court cured Yuan Chonghuan's crimes, he would immediately surrender!

Such a thing seemed natural to him.

Because more than one trilateral governor was unlucky because he couldn't restrain the army under his command, wasn't that the case with Zeng Mill, who was in the northwest of the earthquake!?

Moreover, in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, there are really countless local governors and feudal officials who have been dismissed and dismissed from office or even ruined because of the mutiny of the army under their command!

So since the mutiny, he has been waiting for the day when Yuan Chonghuan is unlucky, and at the same time waiting for the day when the imperial court will issue an edict to appease him.

However, what he never expected was that His Majesty the Emperor did not follow the usual routine of the imperial court in the past, and there was such a big mess in the northwest, and he didn't even issue an order to punish this Yuan Manzi, even if he didn't even have a will to reprimand and recall!

This made Po Ximu want to find a staircase and couldn't find it.

To this day, although he hated Yuan Chonghuan deeply and did not want to surrender to Yuan Chonghuan, because he knew that he might not get the conditions he wanted from Yuan Chonghuan, but the situation was stronger than people, and it was impossible not to bow his head now.

King Gao Yingxiang ordered them to stick to Guyuan City, but Po Ximu didn't want to go all the way to the dark and carry it to the end with the court.

The Han people in Guyuan City have been exhausted, although they have a lot of gold, silver, pearls and jade looted, but they have nowhere to buy food.

Tens of thousands of Mu Suman, who gathered in the city, have been trapped in the city for several months, and the food in the city is only consumed, but there is no income, and there is not much left today.

More than 4,000 people from He Yilong and He Jin's subordinates, who came to Guyuan City to reinforce themselves, not only did not bring a single piece of food, but they were all like the reincarnation of starving ghosts, and they did nothing except eat, drink, and tease the women back to them.

Now, He Yilong, He Jin and others are still hiding at the south gate with the head of the camp from thieves, allowing themselves to fight to the death with the imperial army, why!

Although there are many people returning to the city, there are 30,000 or 40,000 people, but among them, there are no more than 10,000 young and strong people who can go into battle with swords, and the total number of cronies and soldiers under his command who were originally stationed in Guyuan is only 2,000, how long can it be consumed?

Since Governor Yuan Chonghuan led the official army to come, Po Ximu has been thinking about what choice he should make day and night.

In the end, he found that he had no other choice but to surrender immediately and evacuate immediately.
