Chapter 274: Heart-wrenching
In fact, in real history, after the Chuzhou War, the peasant army suffered huge losses, and it can be said that it was exhausted.
The peasant army was a group of rogues who gathered together because they could not afford to eat, and the peasant army in this period did not have any political ideals and strategic goals at all.
After being beaten to the ground by Lu Xiangsheng, they were all shaken. So, after the Chuzhou War, a large number of peasant army leaders accepted the imperial court's recruitment, disbanded the army, and became officials of the Ming Dynasty, and even the most powerful Zhang Xianzhong also accepted the appeasement.
Only a small number of giants, such as Li Zicheng, led their troops to hide in the mountainous areas of southern Henan to fight guerrillas, and fled to the border area between Shaanxi and Henan to live a mixed life. It wasn't until two years later that he returned to Henan.
At that time, Lu Xiangsheng was urging all kinds of soldiers and horses to enter the mountains to encircle and suppress. It is said that with his military talent, the situation of the Ming Dynasty was very good, and with a lot of strength, the entire peasant army was completely extinguished by him in a year at most.
It's a pity that later, because of the tense war in the north, Emperor Chongzhen was forced to do so, so he had to transfer the most capable commander of the Ming Dynasty from the south back to Xuan, Da Yi, and preside over the military affairs of the Gyeonggi region
。
Later generations sigh every time they read this section of history: If Chongzhen had not transferred Lu Xiangsheng from the southern front, the thief army would not have revived, and Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army would not have annihilated the Gyeonggi region because of many constraints, and even Lu Xiangsheng would have died on the battlefield against the Qing Dynasty. If everything could be repeated, history might be a different story, right?
Sun Yuan persuaded Lu Xiangsheng not to rush to the north, which was also based on his foresight of history, and he wanted to try to see if he, a traverser, could have an impact on history. In this way, it can not only change the fate of the Ming Dynasty, but also change Lu Xiangsheng's personal fate.
It's a pity that the inherent inertia of history is too great. Even if there are some small changes because of Sun Yuan, it still stubbornly returns to its original trajectory.
Beijing, in the West Garden, after Yang Sichang, Wen Tiren, and Zhou Yanru made such a fuss, Chuzhou was victorious, and the great news of Gao Yingxiang's capture seemed to have diluted a lot.
After discussing for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen felt a little tired, so he said he was tired.
The cabinet members got up and took their leave.
Zhou Yanru pointed at Wen Tiren and then at Yang Sichang, gritting his teeth and wanting to say something, but in the end he just snorted and turned around.
The other cabinet members also shook their heads, glanced at Yang Sichang with disdain, and then dispersed.
Yang Sichang was determined, only gritted his teeth, and did not say a word.
Just as he was striding away, Wen Tiren followed: "Elder Yang Ge." ”
"Elder Wen Ge." Yang Sichang's feet slowed down.
Wen Tiren: "When you are old, your legs and feet are not as strong as those in the cabinet, and everything will be old and decrepit to the end." Yang Ge is old and slow, talking to the old man. ”
Yang Sichang didn't have a good impression of Wen Tiren, a powerful minister in Chongzhen's year, and said lightly: "Since the elder of the pavilion is invited, Yang Sichang dares not to die." ”
His coldness, Wen Tiren naturally saw it in his eyes, but he didn't care. smiled: "If your legs and feet are slow, then walk slowly, as long as you walk steadily, you will come sooner or later." Over the years, this cabinet has been like a marquee, and I don't know how many people have changed. Today, when you like you, you are extremely good.

。 ”
Yang Sichang: "For His Holiness, Wen Ge is cautious." ”
Wen Tiren didn't care, he stretched out his nose and sniffed a blooming magnolia on the tree on the side of the road, and continued: "Since Chongzhen a year to the present, I can't remember how many people have entered this cabinet. However, Lao Yu and Zhou Ge Lao have always been there. So, it doesn't matter if the person walks slowly. Lao Yu and Zhou Ge are both very old, Yang Ge, you are young and strong, and you know the soldiers, this cabinet will have to be supported by you in the future! ”
Yang Sichang's heart rose vigilantly, and he pursed his mouth tightly.
Wen Tiren: "Ten sides of the net, four positive and six corners, what a big deal!" Only a character like Yang Ge Lao has such a big pattern. If it is really implemented, the right to draft votes in the future is not yours. But this time, Zhou Ge Lao seems to be taking care of Lu Jiandou wholeheartedly, hehe, you must know that Zhou Ge Lao had a holiday with Lu Jiandou before, but now he has abandoned his previous suspicions, which is really surprising! If Lord Lu is allowed to completely exterminate the thieves in the south, he will not be able to run away from the credit of knowing people and being good at his duties, and in the future, Jian is in the emperor's heart, maybe he will be able to achieve the position of first assistant. So, Yang Ge Lao thinks it's very good that you transferred Lu Jiandou to the governor of Xuanda. ”
Hearing this, Yang Sichang's heart arched with fire, slowly opened his mouth, and said: "Shoufu's words, I don't understand them. ”
Wen Tiren waved his hand and interrupted Yang Sichang's words: "At a certain age, my mind is also a little confused, you don't have to take anything you say to Yang Ge Lao." We don't have much contact, so we might as well move around more in the future. Zhou Ge has been a secondary assistant for many years, this mountain looks at that mountain high, if he is allowed to preside over the cabinet, it is not a blessing of the country. Wen is weak, I value you. ”
Yang Sichang finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and shouted: "Shoufu, this time I proposed to transfer Lu Jiandou back to Gyeonggi out of public intentions. Compared with the southern thieves, Jiannu is the enemy of our dynasty. Moreover, Lu Jiandou also asked him to return to the capital last year to preside over the defense of the Great Wall, but at that time, the war in the south was in full swing, and he couldn't get out for a while. Yang is open-minded, and what others want to say, he will say it. ”
Thinking of the grievances he had suffered because he was robbed of love by the emperor, Yang Sichang's heart was sour, and he couldn't help but have a slight redness in his eyes.
Wen Tiren saw that Yang Sichang couldn't control his emotions, and smiled coldly in his heart: Yang Sichang, young man, you are still a little tender
。 Zhou Yanru has coveted the position of first assistant for many years, and has gathered a large number of henchmen. Now, he has lost His Majesty's favor. It's this Yang Sichang, the saint is long, but he can fight for it. If he had helped, he would have been able to compete with the beast surnamed Zhou. This man seems shrewd, but he is an impulsive person. This is an official, especially a high-ranking official like a cabinet minister, and this kind of thing is the most undesirable!
He said lightly: "Elder Yang Ge is also from the two lists of Jinshi, and the sage has clouds: I will not save my body every day." We have read the books of the sages all our lives, and every day we ask ourselves whether everything we say and everything we say is in line with the teachings of the sages. Yang Ge Lao vigorously promoted Lu Xiang's promotion to be the governor of Xuanda this time, and he was not afraid that Lu Jiandou would put down the southern thieves in one go. In this way, is it still possible to implement your method of spreading the net on all sides? ”
"During the Zhengde period, Wang Yangming was a great Confucian who founded a generation of schools, and he knew how to fight well. Such a person, if he follows the rules of officialdom, will enter the cabinet in the future, and he should be a minister. It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity......, it's a pity."
Wen Tiren shook his head incessantly, while Yang Sichang clenched his teeth.
Wen Tiren: "For those who are in phase, they should know yin and yang, know how to advance and retreat, good things cannot be accounted for, and benefits cannot be taken away." In the Huanhui Rebellion, King Ning rebelled, how many civil and military officials, Xun Guixiao will rub their fists to follow the old story, beat a prince Wandai, and fight a hereditary replacement. Hehe, it's a pity that Wang Yangming took a month to win King Ning, and cut off the way for others to advance, you say, can he not be hated, can he still enter the cabinet in the future? ”
"Now, Lu Jiandou is following Wang Yangming's old path, and he will not end well in the future. Old Yang Ge transferred him back to Xuanda, but it was also for his good. ”
This is already a heart-wrenching statement, Yang Sichang clenched his fists tightly, and said in a dumb voice: "Shoufu is saying that I, Yang Sichang, will transfer Lu Jiandou for personal glory and power?" ”
"I don't have to worry about myself every day." Wen Tiren smiled faintly, didn't speak, and walked away slowly, leaving Yang Sichang alone in a daze.
Looking at his back, Yang Sichang muttered: "Am I really jealous of Lu Xiangsheng, and even resentful of him for destroying my four corners and six corners and ten sides of the net, no, no, no, I'm not such a villain!" But...... I ask myself, haven't I ever had a thought like this? Villain, villain! ”
He punched the magnolia tree on the side of the road hard, and white petals fell down.
