Chapter 467: Huang Taiji Dispatches Troops
The reunion between Cao Huachun and Zhang Chu was not so pleasant, and the status of the two sides was adjusted. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Moreover, Zhang Chu seemed to recognize Cao Huachun and Luo Yangxing as the masterminds of his assassination, and he fought hard to turn his face with the emperor and arrest the two of them to clean up. It seems that the lives of the two of them are really difficult to save this time.
Luo Yangxing didn't think about it so much, he thought that since Zhang Chu knew them and gave them a lot of silver before, how could he be regarded as having a friendship, and begging him for more might still have a chance of life.
"It's not difficult for me to spare you, as long as you are truly obedient to me, come out with everything you know, and work honestly in the security army in the future, it will not be difficult to survive." Zhang Chu finally decided not to kill these two people, it was easy for Zhang Chu to kill people, but he also had to see if it was useful to kill.
"We are sincere in surrender, and we will serve you faithfully." Luo Yangxing doesn't care about his image, as long as he can live, he can do anything.
"Father-in-law Cao doesn't seem to be very willing, if you two want to live together, if you two die, you two die together." Zhang Chu saw Cao Huachun kneeling there without saying a word, knowing that he was still unwilling to surrender. If he was unwilling to surrender, Zhang Chu really didn't mind killing him with a knife.
"Father-in-law Cao, let's take refuge in Zhang Dashuai, this is abandoning the darkness and turning to the light, and there is no loss, this is a good thing, you can agree." Luo Yang's temperament is in a hurry, this Cao Huachun doesn't want to live and can't drag him to die together.
"Gonggong Cao, if you die like this, you can't be considered loyal to the country, you have to keep the reputation of this chaotic minister and thief. You don't want to see what the final outcome of the Ming Dynasty is, and what will happen to the Chongzhen Emperor to whom you are loyal. "Zhang Chu doesn't have much hatred for Cao Huachun, Cao Huachun is just loyal to his emperor, if he is allowed to see the end of the Ming Dynasty with his own eyes, he may be even more painful.
"The Ming Dynasty will not die for thousands of generations, His Majesty the Emperor will be prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it will be fine." Cao Huachun didn't believe Zhang Chu's words at all, he thought that the Ming Dynasty was still early to fall.
"If you're thinking so, why don't you survive and see what the end of the day is. Maybe you still have a chance to help your emperor and finally clear your name as a rebellious thief. Zhang Chu's words reached Cao Huachun's sore spot, he was really unwilling, he had done a lifetime of loyalty for the emperor, but in the end he was accused of deceiving the emperor.
"Okay, I'm willing to cooperate with you, but I won't do anything that endangers His Majesty the Emperor." Cao Huachun succumbed, he was indeed a little unwilling to die in this dishonorable way.
"Where is Wang Chengen now, what is he doing??" Cao Huachun knew that his life was over. He couldn't help but think of his chosen heir, Wang Chengen, if Wang Chengen also rebelled with Zhang Chu, then the eunuchs would be completely finished, and no emperor would dare to trust them anymore.
"Wang Chengen is now leading troops to fight Houjin in Liaodong, he is much more capable and productive than you." Zhang Chu didn't lie, now Wang Chengen has become obsessed with the feeling of being on the battlefield, and he is leading the team to go around with the Houjin people in the northeast.
Cao Huachun listened to Zhang Chu's words and relieved his heart, after the fight, Jin should be, and it was good that he did not participate in the rebellion. I didn't expect this Wang Cheng to be able to go to the battlefield.
"There will be people who will ask you about the situation, and you will have to cooperate fully, and you will understand the consequences of not cooperating. I don't keep idlers here, and during the confession, you go to the quarry to earn your own food, and if you don't work, you don't have anything to eat, and you can leave the quarry when you can do other work. Zhang Chu didn't want to let the two of them go easily, not only to let the two explain the problem, but also to let them experience the difficulty of life.
Cao Huachun and Luo Yangxing had to even claim that they had no choice, and it was good to be able to save their lives. After that, they began to smash stones in the quarry and explain their problems.
The news of Zhang Chu's truce in the Ningbo area was transmitted back to Jingshi, which made Emperor Chongzhen breathe a sigh of relief, Zhang Chu was still trustworthy, and after getting Cao Huachun and Luo Yangxing in his hands, he really stopped attacking the surrounding prefectures and counties, which won precious time for the imperial court. Moreover, Zhang Chu did not deal with them with great fanfare after getting the two, which somewhat preserved the face of the imperial court. Emperor Chongzhen's heart was a little better.
Of course, Emperor Chongzhen would not swallow this evil breath like this, he has been thinking about how to mobilize people to exterminate Zhang Chu in one fell swoop. Zhang Chu stopped the military operation, and the emperor's action of dispatching troops was about to begin, but soon the news from outside the gate disrupted the emperor's deployment.
Since Huang Taiji got up with the idea of being the emperor in Guannei, he has been paying attention to every move of the Ming Dynasty, and many merchants in the Guannai have been bribed into Houjin's eyeliner, providing information to Huang Taiji from time to time, and even some courtiers of the Ming Dynasty have secretly corresponded with Huang Taiji.
All kinds of information of the Ming Dynasty continued to be transmitted to the hands of Huang Taiji.
On this day, Emperor Taiji got another great piece of good news.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty." After the surrender, Fan Wencheng, a Han official of Jin, happily walked into Huang Taiji's residence.
"Fan Aiqing, what's so good about being so happy." Huang Taiji knew that Fan Wencheng had always been calm, and it would not be like this if it was not a big thing, so he hurriedly asked what was the matter.
"That Zhang Chu and Emperor Chongzhen have fought, my lord's defense is worry-free, and he can march into the Guannai and chase the Central Plains." Fan Wencheng raised the information in his hand and said with a radiant expression.
"Is this information true? What's going on? Huang Taiji was immediately attracted after hearing this. Hurry up and let Fan Wencheng tell him what's going on.
Fan Wencheng told Huang Taiji a simple situation, and the information they got was that Zhang Chu didn't know why, and transferred the main force of the security army to Jiangnan, and then the emperor couldn't get used to his flying and domineering appearance, and sent Jinyi Wei to assassinate Zhang Chu, Zhang Chu was angry and raised troops, attacked the city and plundered the land in Zhejiang, and asked the emperor to hand over the murderers behind his assassination, Cao Huachun and Luo Yangxing. "Zhang Chu's main force has left the Dongjiang region and poses no threat to our rear, and now it is just right to send troops to the front line of Shanhaiguan to sweep away the Ming army's forces outside the pass, capture Jinzhou, and prepare for the next step of entering the customs." Fan Wencheng was a little excited, he finally saw the hope of victory.
"Can we take advantage of Zhang Chu's absence to recover Dongjiang and Lushun." Huang Taiji felt very uncomfortable with the presence of a big nail in his back.
"This can't be done for the time being, I have studied the examples of the security forces, the security forces are sharp, especially good at defense, the cities they built are very strong, and there is support from the water, even if you want to besiege it, it can't work. Therefore, they can't attack them for the time being, and the main force attacking Dongjiang Zhang Chu will definitely come back, so the contradiction between him and Emperor Chongzhen will be resolved, which will not be good for us. And our attack on Jinzhou Zhang Chu will definitely sit idly by, just give us a good opportunity to attack. Fan Wencheng explained.
"This is very good, I ordered all banners to immediately dispatch men and horses, and I will personally lead the troops to attack Jinzhou to make Emperor Chongzhen's life even more sad." Huang Taiji's tone was full of excitement. (To be continued.) )
