Chapter 54: Miserable! Battle of Yaozhou

Jingshi, Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

During this time, Zhu Jianzheng was pacing, frowning slightly.

After a while, he turned around abruptly and said to an old minister behind him.

"Mr. Shan Shan, I have been to Dongjiang for more than a year, but it has been hard."

"In the year of the Mandate of Heaven, the old minister received the grace of the Holy Grace and went out of the town of Dongjiang, every time he thought about this, he was sincerely afraid, and he was worried that he would not be able to do His Majesty's errand, how could it be said that he was hard."

Hearing the emperor's words, although Zhang Shenyan was a little sincere and fearful, his heart was warm, and he received the grace of the saints, which was the joy engraved in the bones of the scholars.

Whether it is a weak crown, or a stand, or an old age, from ancient times to the present, for thousands of years, monarchs and ministers have been burned into their bones.

"Sir, I'm too worried, too worried. The gentleman I know is talented, and I think it is a blessing for me, a blessing for the Ming Dynasty! ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Jian paused, and then said.

"Mr. went out of the town of Dongjiang in the year of the Mandate of Heaven and worked hard for the party affairs of the Jing Navy, but he worked hard and made great achievements. However, Mr. here has already said that he knows the destiny of heaven, but I have a question, I don't know if Mr. can answer it for me? ”

"The old minister is terrified."

"There is no need to be like this, just answer that there are only two people here, Mr. and I, and what Mr. says is offended, and I do not think it is disobedient."

"But the old minister is disrespectful."

Hearing this, Zhu Jian nodded.

"Mr. has been in Dongjiang for more than a year, and I know a lot about the situation of Houjin and my Ming Dynasty, but I want to know, what should Mr. think about General Huanglong's book?"

Although Zhang Shenyan participated in the formulation of the plan for the capture of Yaozhou, although he was a member of the party affairs committee of the imperial party and was in charge of the personnel, ideological work, and logistical support of the Jing Navy, he naturally wanted to participate in such a major event as recovering Yaozhou City, which had been plundered by the Houjin.

And here, the emperor knew that he was a participant, but he wanted to ask his opinion on this matter, but Zhang Shenyan understood that the emperor must have doubts about this matter.

But in the same way, Zhang Shenyan also understands that it is the best time to attack Yaozhou here!

Because according to reliable information, Huang Taiji has already started a fierce battle with the combined forces of Amin and Dolgon in the area of Zhenbei Pass.

And once Yaozhou is recovered here, then Haizhou is within reach, so that Liaoyang and the later Jindu Shengjing City (Shenyang) will directly face the threat of Ming artillery fire.

Therefore, the battle of Yaozhou is bound to win!

Thinking of this, Zhang Shenyan said.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that it is the best policy to capture Yaozhou here, if you miss the opportunity, when the internal crisis of the Tartars is resolved, you will want to recover the four towns in one fell swoop, and break the barrier of Shengjing, the pseudo-capital of Houjin, but it is even more difficult, so the old minister is brave, please make a decision as soon as possible!"

Hearing Zhang Shen's words and proverbs, how could he Zhu Jian not know that this was an excellent opportunity to capture Yaozhou, or even recover Liaoyang in one fell swoop, but once this war started, what it meant, he Zhu Jian knew in his heart.

It has only been more than a year since the immigrants from Liaodong have been immigrating one after another, but this is the best time to develop production, if once Yaozhou is captured, it means that Houjin will start a full-scale war with the Ming Dynasty again.

As soon as the war starts, it is like a flood of beasts, destined to be ruined!

Is it necessary to let the people who have just immigrated to Liaodong return to Guannai?

And just when Zhu Jian was a little puzzled, a little eunuch from outside the palace suddenly came to report, saying that Li Yan, Minister of the Political Affairs Bureau, and Song Xiance, Minister of the Propaganda Department of the Imperial Party, were waiting outside the palace.

"Oh, please!"

Not long after, Li Yan and Song Xiance came hand in hand, but they were happy.

"Your Majesty, congratulations, congratulations!"

When Song Xiance raised his hand to say hello, Zhu Jian was confused, but he did not forget to introduce Zhang Shenyan to the two.

After a few people were polite, Zhu Jian was the way.

"How happy is Song Qing? Could it be that the concubine I gave to the Qing family a few days ago was happy again? ”

In the face of what the emperor said, Song Xiance, who was still smiling, did not feel that his old face was flushed.

To say that on that day, Song Xiance was appointed by Zhu Jian as the Minister of the Propaganda Department of the Imperial Party from a warlock, and he was alone!

Because the Propaganda Department has made many contributions to the empire over the years, Zhu Jian's wives and concubines who gave Song Xiance are also a finger.

In the past two or three years, the Song Mansion has long been prosperous and has many heirs, so the emperor said this.

And in the face of Song Xiance's old face flushing here, Zhu Jian didn't feel funny, but he said.

"Song Qing don't go to my heart, I'm just joking, it's just Song Qing, where does this joy come from, I'm a little curious!"

Regarding what the emperor said, Song Xiance returned to his previous laughter.

"Your Majesty, this time Huang Taiji will fight with Dolgon and Amin in Zhenbei Pass, no matter who wins or loses after this battle, it will definitely be a defeat for both sides, such a major event, isn't it gratifying!"

Hearing what Song Xiance said, Zhu Jian looked serious.

And the emperor's expression here, Song Xiance has already estimated, thinking that he Song Xiance has heard about it, how can the emperor not know, so this matter is not new.

When the emperor heard this, he did not convene his ministers to discuss the matter, but it showed that the emperor did not like this matter.

Song Xiance is a person, he naturally figured it out.

Therefore, at this moment, Song Xiance continued to speak.

"The minister heard that someone from Dongjiang was coming, but he was worried about it, so he specially invited Lord Li Yan to come together to solve his majesty's doubts.

"Oh, Song Qing, come on!"

Hearing what Song Xiance said, Zhu Jian was busy.

"Then the minister will not be polite, Your Majesty, the minister has a word."

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"When the minister heard, cut the mess with a quick knife, and break it when it is broken!"

Hearing this, after thinking for a while, Zhu Jian said.

"The swords and soldiers are together, and the lives are ruined! What will be the arrangement for the millions of immigrants in Liaodong? ”

"Your Majesty, there have been immigrants here for more than a year, nearly two years, most of the new and old immigrants have settled here, then Liaodong is their home, and now the family is facing the oppression of outsiders, how can they not resist!"

"Oh, yes."

"Yes, Your Majesty, once the war starts, it will be the same enemy! What's more, His Majesty has been running Liaodong for some years, pillboxes and fences, which are the nightmare of the Tartar cavalry, and I heard that there are armed trains cruising here, and the land in the rear is still cultivated but unharmed! ”

Regarding Song Xiance's words, Zhu Jian sighed slightly.

"As soon as the war starts, I will tax off the Liaodong region for two more years!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

.......

sent Zhang Shenyan away, but Zhu Jian left Song Xiance and Li Yan behind.

"Here, Huang Taiji and Dolgon and Amin fought a decisive battle in Zhenbei Pass, what should you Aiqing think?"

"Such a major event is the root of the relationship, but now it is spread all over the city, and the minister thinks that it is a fraud!"

Li Yan thought for a moment, but it was the way.

"Oh, even if it's a fraud, why did the two of you do it before."

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that if it is really a fraud, the minister thinks it should be a great joy!"

"Oh, I'm listening."

"If there is fraud, there must be some kind of agreement within Houjin here, then this town Beiguan is destined to be dangerous and abnormal, and as for other places, there must be opportunities."

"Your Majesty, and the minister thinks that the matter of Zhenbei Pass, Your Majesty can also test it."

"Oh, let's talk."

"Your Majesty can repair a letter, go to the Mongolian Lin Dan Khan, and ask him to take the queen gold together!"
