Chapter 783: Intricate
The ministers looked at the sky, there was still a period of time before noon, and their stomachs were not very hungry, but the meaning of the Son of Heaven's eviction order was already very obvious, and it would be unclear if they stayed any longer!
Fortunately, the Son of Heaven left the old Shoufu, which was obviously moved by the words of the old Shoufu, but he couldn't make up his mind for a while, as long as there was this trend, the ministers believed that the old Shoufu would be able to dissuade the emperor......
However, to the surprise of the ministers, everyone planned to withdraw from the main hall, except for the old Shoufu, there was one person who still stood still.
This person is Luo Sigong, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, who has not said a word since entering the hall!
Although the ministers were strange in their hearts, since the Son of Heaven had already spoken, they didn't dare to stay too long, so they had to exit the palace gate with a trace of doubt.
"Yuan Fu is sick, and he is still working state affairs, so it's hard!"
After the ministers left, the atmosphere in the hall eased a little, and Zhu Changluo spoke first.
"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, the old minister's health is still fine, I don't know if Your Majesty left the old minister alone, but what is inconvenient to say in front of other adults?"
The old Shoufu owed a debt, and his voice was neither humble nor high-pitched.
"The situation is dire!"
Zhu Changluo's face became solemn, and his tone was slightly heavy.
A sentence suddenly made Wang Xijue's heart tighten, the Son of Heaven said that the situation was grim at this time, definitely not referring to the interior, but referring to the border, but as far as the situation is seen now, although it is worth worrying, but it is far from the point where the Son of Heaven shows this expression, after all, the Ming Dynasty and Tatar are old enemies, and since the founding of the country for more than two hundred years, it has also made the greatest effort in the defense of Tatar, not to mention that the Ming Dynasty has more than 800,000 troops, and nearly 500,000 are listed in the nine-sided military town, in order to defend the Tatars.
The rebellion of the Tulmer tribe was certainly unprepared, but the situation was far from urgent, so the ministers of the imperial court had the heart to find out the cause of the matter before making a conclusion.
But looking at the face of the Son of Heaven now, Wang Xijue knew that what he and others saw must not be all......
"Luo Sigong, repeat the information you reported a few days ago!"
Sure enough, the Son of Heaven paused slightly, but turned his gaze to Luo Sigong, the commander of the Jinyi Guard on the side.
Commander Luo still had a gloomy look on his face, and arched his hand.
"Obey the order, Your Majesty, Jinyiwei received a secret report on the 15th that the Jianzhou Jurchen had a coup d'Γ©tat before the 20th, Nurhachi's second son Daishan and his eighth son Huang Taiji entered the Baylor Mansion, intending to assassinate the leader Murhaqi, but was unexpectedly investigated by Murhaqi in advance, and set up an ambush in the Baylor Mansion, wanting to ambush the two, but this was the plan of Daishan and Huang Taiji, and the two of them pretended to attack and kill the Baylor Mansion, but in fact, the joint general Fei Yingdong took advantage of Murhaqi to mobilize troops, and went into prison to rescue Nurhachi's eldest son Chu Ying, after the fact, The two parties converged at the East City Gate, fled from the old city of Jianzhou, and threw themselves into the Hada Department! β
"Jurchen?"
Wang Xijue frowned, and quickly clarified the meaning of Luo Sigong's words.
Since the battle of Liaodong, the Jurchen vitality was greatly injured, Nurhachi was killed in battle, Shuerhaqi was killed in battle, Chu Ying was imprisoned, Murhaqi ascended to the throne, officially bowed to the Ming Dynasty, was awarded the title of Dragon and Tiger General, and became the leader of Jianzhou recognized by the Ming Dynasty.
As far as Wang Xijue knows, Murhaqi was forced by the strength of the Yehe Department and has repeatedly asked Li Rumei, the general soldier of Liaodong, for help, so that now Li Rumei's army will not be hindered from entering and leaving the old city of Jianzhou, as if entering a no-man's land.
Because of this situation, Wang Xijue didn't put much thought on Liaodong, as for the Jurchen coup, he had also heard of it, but it was not as specific as Jinyiwei's, but what made him a little puzzled was that the Jurchen and the Turk Ministry were incompatible, and Luo Sigong was mentioning the Jurchen at this moment.
"Motosuke, don't worry, please listen!"
Zhu Changluo saw Wang Xijue's doubts, but he pressed his hand and said.
Luo Sigong was expressionless and continued.
"According to the situation, Dai Shan and others have already contacted the Hada Department in advance, and after they were thrown into Hada, the Hada Department immediately thought that in the name of Nurhachi's revenge, they sent troops to help Chu Ying kill back to Jianzhou, but Chu Ying had already contacted the Tatar Korqin Department, and the Korqin Department ambushed fifty miles outside the city of Hada, captured Hada Belle Mengebulu, and took Hada City in one fell swoop, and now it has marched to the Huifa Department!"
Nodding, Zhu Changluo said.
"Now the situation in Liaodong, the Yehe Department and the Jianzhou Department are at war endlessly, after Chu Ying betrayed Jianzhou, he betrayed the Hada Department to the Horqin Department, and the Horqin Department has been plotting against the Jurchen for a long time, and now it is preparing to attack the Huifa Department, and the Huifa Department has also urgently sent people to contact the Ula Department, intending to fight against Horqin!"
"Horqin ......"
Wang Xijue frowned tightly, according to these news, he continued to deduce the situation in Liaodong, and after a while, his heart tightened suddenly, and he turned his head and said.
"Commander Luo, how many troops did the Horqin Department send to attack the Jurchens?"
"It is claimed to be an army of 50,000, but the actual number is about 20,000!"
Luo Sigong still had a poker face and said in a deep voice.
"About ten thousand five, this is almost the entire strength of Horqin......"
After Wang Xijue listened, he muttered to himself, paused, and suddenly his face changed greatly.
"Korqin, it's bad, Chahar! Your Majesty, could it be that this matter has something to do with the Chahar Ministry? β
Lao Shoufu deserves to be Lao Shoufu, just by hearing the news of Horqin, you can think of this......
Zhu Changluo's face was solemn and he nodded.
"Yes, the current situation of the Tatars can be roughly divided into three major forces, the left-wing forces headed by the Chahar Ministry, the right-wing forces led by the Tulmer Ministry, and the unique Horqin Ministry, over the years, the Tatars have been fighting infighting, although the Chahar Ministry, although it is orthodox, but it is powerless to control it, but the Chahar Dayan Khan has always intended to unify the Tatars, but the Korqin Ministry, so they have not dared to do it, but now the Korqin Ministry, the Chahar Ministry, will wait for the opportunity to move!"
"Your Majesty suspects that the Turmer Ministry was instigated by the Chahar Ministry?"
Wang Xijue let out a sigh and made a bold guess.
However, Zhu Changluo shook his head and spoke.
"It's not just a suspicion, I'm ninety percent sure that the Turmo tribe rose up to the army, it must have been instigated by the Chahar department, Yuanfu may not know, just five days ago, Dayan Khan ordered his grandson Lin Dan to send the Turmo tribe as a hostage, the two sides talked secretly for more than two days, and three days later, there was a matter of the Turmo tribe's attack on Datong!"
