Chapter 133: Nanjing (21)
"Say so," After listening to Yu Huai's words, Zhu Cihong was expressionless, and he calculated silently in his heart for a while before he said: "Li Zicheng is afraid that he has withdrawn from Yanjing at this time." ”
When Yu Huai spoke, everyone listened silently, and at this time, Wei Yue stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, I'm afraid that Dongyu has already come to the capital city." ”
"Is Dongyu's ambition so big?"
Chen Mingxia, like ordinary scholars at that time, did not have much worry about Dongyu, who was very wary of everyone. He groaned: "Or, the Dongyu is a soldier borrowed from Pingxibo, and he is promised to pay the people and wealth with his annual salary...... Dongyu, who is a thief who robs the house and robs the house, gives benefits, I'm afraid that he won't have any wrong thoughts, right? ”
Yu Huai also said: "Chen Yuanyuan is a woman after all, and what she said is extremely dangerous, but most of it is speculation. According to the ministers, Dongyu is just a border trouble, and Li Zicheng's setback is not a time, a stone battle, the loss is not small, but it does not hurt his fundamental bones. If the whole army fights again, I am afraid that there will be a struggle in the north. The top priority at the moment is to get in touch with Xibo in peace, and we will supply food and salary non-stop, stabilize the overall situation of the Beijing Division, and then calmly pass through Henan, Shandong, and Jinan, so that even if the eastern captives enter the country, it is great to send a few silver, as long as our army is heavily guarded and the captives enter the country, it is just a plunder. ”
He is a genius in the end, and he is usually good at poetry and writing, but at this time, he is not timid to discuss military affairs in front of the crown prince, and he peels off the cocoon layer by layer, and the words he plays are extremely precise, even Wei Yue, who knows Jianzhou very well, can't help but wonder at this time: Is it that I think too much about Dongyu?
Chen Mingxia's eyes flickered with a strange light, this Yu Huai, who is usually inconspicuous, is really not ambiguous at all when it is critical!
A group of their monarchs and ministers were talking at the gate of the palace, but they didn't notice that Chen Zilong and Fang Yizhi had also rushed over, because they were talking about business, and the two of them didn't dare to speak, so they knelt on the side of the road and listened stupidly.
"Haha, laughing to death, laughing to death!"
When everyone spoke, Zhu Cihong was silent, until Yu Huai finished speaking, and everyone thought so, Zhu Cihong suddenly laughed heartily, looking overjoyed.
Seeing this, Yu Huai's face was as ugly as chicken blood, as a scholar, even if the other party was the crown prince, such an insult was really unbearable.
The temperament of the scholars in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Cihong knew it very well.
In the Qing Dynasty, a certain holy monarch openly insulted a certain minister, saying that the other party was just a literal prostitute, and it was just a joke. If these words are put aside, I am afraid that the master will be stung to death by the boundless hornet, even if he kills people and makes trouble in the end, I am afraid that no one will be willing to serve him.
The similarities and differences between the Ming and Qing dynasties are here!
One is that the court can't beat it, the other is the head of the person killed when the founding of the country is rolling, the blood of the text prison slaughter is flowing like a river, it is the monarchy and imperial authority killed with a butcher's knife, and the bones of the people under it have long been soft, can you put half a word of false fart?
Here Yu Huai's face changed, and Zhu Cihong said solemnly: "Yu Huai, don't be dissatisfied, I'm not laughing at you!" Present, Chen Mingxia, don't smile with a shy face, you are also among the laughed! You guys, usually all the three graves and five canons have been rummaged, but no one really opened their eyes to see people and things. You say that Dongyu is just a barbarian, and he has no great ambitions, let me tell you, it's pure nonsense to sit in the well and watch the sky! ”
If someone else says so, a few scholars can fight with each other!
Even if the crown prince said it, all of them were flushed. Chen Mingxia looked unconvinced, Yu Huai tried his best to pick the ground with his fingers, Chen Zilong looked blank, only Fang Yizhi seemed to have a smile on his face, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Hey, you're still not convinced?"
Is there anything else Zhu Cihong doesn't understand? These scholars at the end of the Ming Dynasty are indeed the masters of the classics, and there are poems and songs, all of them are good words, sometimes a good painting, and they are proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, astrology, and medicine, otherwise, they can't compete for Oiran on the Qinhuai River!
Of course, no one was convinced at this time, Zhu Cihong sneered, put his hands behind his back, thought about it for a while, and then recited and said: "Gai thinks that the Ming is a strong opponent of our country, or is it a rogue." Just as Qin lost its deer, Chu and Han chased it together. Although he competes with Ming for the world, he is also chasing with the Liukou...... At this time, those who steal the great cause and die for eternity will also lose the opportunity and regret the future......"
What he recited was Fan Wencheng's book after a secret conversation with Hong Chengchou before he started the army. In the book, it was officially proposed to fight for the Ming Dynasty, and it was no longer an opponent of the Ming Dynasty, but a "liukou", that is, Li Zicheng's department.
This letter can be said to be a political declaration and determination of the rulers of the Qing Dynasty to mix the world and unify the Ming Dynasty. Anyone who has any illusions about it, after hearing this recital, should also understand that this small alien ruling group has not only occupied the white mountains and black waters, occupied the land that the original six million Han people had worked so hard to cultivate, enslaved them, and maimed them, but these semi-civilized savages from the Tunguska Jungle have set their sights on Guannai, and determined their ambition to rule all Han people and turn them into slaves.
"No, they are so bold......" Chen Mingxia is a first-class smart person, without saying much, he already understands the ambition and determination contained in the words that Fan Wencheng said in the compromise, he was also dumbfounded at this time, lying on the ground, and muttered: "In the past few years, I thought they had stopped outside the customs, to be honest, and to rob enough, I didn't expect that the ambition was still so **?" ”
"It's been decades of tossing, and it's time to go downhill......"
"There are no more than 100,000 soldiers, no more than 1,000 generals, and such a small tribe really dares to enter the customs to rob the country?"
The scholars of the Ming Dynasty do still have relatively strong self-confidence, after all, Ming Taizu raised a three-foot sword, and leveled the invincible Mengyuan of the iron cavalry, to be pure in terms of strength, Mongolia at the time of the remnant Yuan was still much stronger than the current Manchuria, even so, Xu Da and Chang Yuchun used cavalry against cavalry, all the way to the desert, and then Feng Sheng Lanyu took turns, beating the Mongols to the grassland could not stand, and then Zhu Di went to the desert again and again to pick rabbits...... If you want to talk about the prosperity of martial arts, before the early to mid-Ming Dynasty, it was indeed strong enough.
Even after the civil engineering, because of the painful lesson of the Song Dynasty, the Son of Heaven guarded the country, and did not pay the money if he did not get along, as long as he committed, he would be able to meet the head-on. In the past 200 years of the Ming Dynasty, in fact, there was no border trouble that could endanger the fundamentals, even in the Wanli period, there were three major expeditions of great martial arts!
The self-confidence of the Chinese people is based on the country's martial arts, so although the Dongyu has been in trouble for decades, the Mongols also occupied the Hetao back then, and during the Jiajing period, it also led to martial law in Beijing, and the Japanese also touched the city of Nanjing...... What happened in the end? is more than the national strength, financial resources and manpower, and it has to be counted.
This is the understanding of Dongyu, and after all, the Ming Dynasty has been nearly three hundred years old, and it is not wrong that all dynasties and dynasties have basically died in civil strife...... According to this experience, even at this time, the elites of the Ming Dynasty scholar class still regarded Li Zicheng as a big danger and did not take the threat of the Eastern Prisoners too seriously.
Zhu Cihong's identity will not make up a note of the scholars of the inner court of the Qing Dynasty, and when he hears about it, those who insist on their original opinions are either stupid people or have ulterior motives.
There were no people in the audience, neither of them before and after, so Chen Mingxia took the lead, and everyone kowtowed deeply, and said in unison: "The prince's teachings are extremely good, and the ministers are happy to submit." ”
"You understand it yourself, but you can't do it."
The biggest test has arrived, Zhu Cihong gritted his teeth, word by word, as if with the sound of gold and stone: "Now that Dongyu has entered the customs, he may have taken the Beijing Division." Wu Sangui and other vassals, who have never been loyal, only know how to support the army and respect themselves, and now they must have shaved their heads and surrendered...... The situation is serious, I want to play my father, and I will swear to go out of Beijing! ”
The crown prince was originally in charge of the military, Chen Mingxia did not arrange a position in the court, and he was obviously also a figure who would assist in joining the army in the future.
It's just that everyone didn't expect that the crown prince would leave Beijing in a short time after returning to Beijing, and obviously, he regarded Dongyu as the first mortal enemy. Thinking that the wolf had not gone, the evil tiger came again, and although everyone kept saying that the eastern captives were only 100,000, the so-called "Jurchen is invincible" proverb has also spread all over the country, even these southern scholars have also heard of it, and in the past few decades, the Ming army has not won a single victory in the Jurchen field!
In the battle of more than 1,000 people, the Ming army did not even win a single battle!
Yu Huai and the others were very excited, and Fang Yizhi, who was still smiling and had no shape, was also moved, he touched his head in place and said, "Your Highness......"
Everyone was excited, but they didn't know what to say for a while.
In fact, Zhu Cihong is out of Nanjing now, and the timing is not good.
The Military Affairs Department and several new institutions have just set up teams, and the personnel are not fully equipped, and the rules and regulations, that is, Zhu Cihong himself devotions.
However, the military situation is a more urgent matter!
The Donglu have already entered the customs, and if they do not take advantage of the good opportunity of all their main forces chasing Li Zicheng to build a strong army that can confront them in Huaishang, all the so-called reforms will be in vain!
"You're here too?"
Only then did Zhu Cihong notice Fang Xinzhi and Chen Zilong, the other party was wise, and he was quite familiar. Fang Yizhi's father, Fang Kongzhao, is also a rare person who can lead troops, he has already written in the past, transferred Fang Kongzhao to Huai'an, and has another appointment.
As for this person, he is not mature for the time being, and there is no need for military affairs. But the miscellaneous collection is also viewed, the pen is also fast, and the popularity is good, and there is a ready-made errand right now, which is just using him.
As far as the people he uses now, few of them are really satisfied. Chen Mingxia is too utilitarian, and he is also a celebrity with more temper.
Yu Huai is even more of a battle of words, and he has no profound insights.
Wang Duo and Wu Weiye are actually only suitable for writing words and poems.
Most of the ministers who are installed in the cabinet and the military affairs department are also honest and honest ministers, but they are probably not very clever in their ability to actually do things.
Even Qian Qianyi was brought in, just to take his status and fame in Jiangnan Wenlin.
As for Chen Zilong in front of him, Zhu Cihong looked at him deeply and said, "Chen Zilong, explain your errand, how are you doing?" ”
