Chapter 149: Peace Talks
Hong Chengchou is well aware of Chongzhen's temper and character. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Some people say that the person who knows you best in the world is your enemy, but now, the person who knows Emperor Chongzhen best is precisely this person who is first a courtier and then an enemy.
What is the character of Emperor Chongzhen: suspicious.
Hong Chengchou knows this, if he is not suspicious, the ending of Yuan Dudu may be a little better, if it is not suspicious, he can't change so many cabinet chiefs and assistants in less than ten years in a row.
In Hong Chengchou's eyes, Emperor Chongzhen had only trusted one person in his life, at most one and a half.
Yang Sichang is one, this product is a good partner of the emperor, a teacher and a friend, and the monarch and the minister are consistent.
Wen Tiren is considered half, if it weren't for the good that he flickered, and he was suspicious of Emperor Chongzhen, it would probably be counted as one, but now it seems that it can only be regarded as half.
In addition, neither the foreign ministers nor the eunuchs of the inner dynasty can enter the eyes of this high Son of Heaven, including him Hong Chengchou, naturally, including the tragic Yuan Dudu before.
As for Zhu Changyuan, hehe!
Not to mention that Hong Chengchou knows, I'm afraid Huang Taiji also knows that this is just a way that Chongzhen has no way out, otherwise, Zhu Changyuan would have been mentioned in Liaodong a long time ago. If Zhu Changyuan had been put in Liaodong earlier, there would have been no defeat in the Songjin War, why now?
Also, when Zhu Changyuan was appeasing Shaanxi, the 300,000 army in his hands was seized by Yang Sichang overnight.
Everything shows that Emperor Chongzhen still can't trust Zhu Changyuan.
Moreover, as the emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom, Huang Taiji also knew more insiders, those insiders about Chongzhen and Zhu Changyuan reaching various deals and various conditions.
For example, Zhu Changyuan agreed on a three-year period, and asked the emperor for the power to kill and seize the land of Liaodong.
From this, it is more affirmed that the relationship between Zhu Changyuan and Chongzhen is abnormal.
"The situation in Liaodong is like a game of chess, and Zhu Changyuan is just a chess player temporarily recruited by the Ming Empire. Moreover, the minister assured that he was only a passer-by as a chess player. ”
Hong Chengchou was confident and continued: "Once he can't play this game of chess. Sooner or later, you'll get out. ”
"But!" Huang Taiji interrupted Hong Chengchou's words, shook his head and said: "Zhu Changyuan is actually a good chess player, and now the people behind him have promised him a lot of convenience, and it should be okay to play a good game of chess in Liaodong." ”
It's not that Huang Taiji is arrogant, but. Zhu Changyuan's terrible is really like a maggot on the tarsal bone biting him all the time, telling him: Everyone who tries to fight Zhu Changyuan in vain has only one final result, either death or defeat!
"Hehehe!" After Hong Chengchou heard Huang Taiji's worries, instead of being frustrated, he laughed a few times, of course, not the kind of unbridled laughter.
After laughing, he said: "Your Majesty Shengming, that's exactly the case!" But. It is because Zhu Changyuan is a good chess player, and he is still a good chess player that is rare in the ages, so his chess player career cannot last long. ”
Huang Taiji's eyes lit up!
Hong Chengchou is right, the more outstanding the general, the more intolerable they are to their masters. For example, Han Xin, who is famous in history; For example, Tan Daoji, who was self-destructed on the Great Wall; For example, Yue Fei, such as King Lanling.
These are a bit far away, and they are close, such as blue jade, such as round dudu, eh. Yuan Dudu doesn't count, he hasn't reached the realm of the master of high merit.
Therefore, Zhu Changyuan's fate can be imagined, the same. It can also be expected.
Hong Chengchou continued: "We just need to be a promoter to let Zhu Changyuan's career as a Liaodong chess player end quickly." ”
"How to push?"
This is the key, and what Huang Taiji didn't say is, what kind of price to pay?
"It's a two-pronged approach." Hong Chengchou's eyebrows suddenly turned cold, and he said, "First." His Majesty wants to get in touch with the ministers on the side of the Ming Jingshi, spread rumors, and incite Chongzhen to make him suspicious of Zhu Changyuan. ”
"As for the second." Hong Chengchou took a deep look at Huang Taiji and said: "Hold Zhu Changyuan, try not to have a large-scale conflict with him, and try to wait until the Ming Dynasty itself calls him back." ”
The first point is easy to do, and according to Emperor Chongzhen's temperament, it is also extremely easy to succeed.
But the second point is a bit difficult, but Hong Chengchou believes that even if there is enough difficulty, Huang Taiji has to rush up, there is no way, you can't beat others hard, this is the conclusion that countless people who don't believe in it have come to the conclusion after going forward.
Huang Taiji didn't say anything, and after listening to Hong Chengchou's words, he fell into endless contemplation.
After pondering for a while, he waved his hand casually and said, "Mr. Hong is also tired, let's go back and rest first, your suggestion today is very good, I will consider it." ”
After sending Hong Chengchou and Fan Wencheng away, Huang Taiji stood up from his seat, looked directly at Dolgon, and asked, "What does the fourteenth brother think of Hong Chengchou's idea?" ”
Dorgon thought for a moment, then confessed, "There is merit, but it will take a long time. Seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, he said: "In the opinion of the younger brother, although Zhu Changyuan is powerful, the fifteenth brother is not in vain. ”
There is no doubt that as a general, Dolgon is the main battle.
Even if he thinks in his heart that Fan Wencheng and Hong Chengchou are right, he can't agree under normal circumstances, because what he says represents the opinion of the military, and the army, no matter what, can't be cowardly.
Moreover, with the hole card of Duoduo, Dolgon was also very eager to fight with Zhu Changyuan.
The world knows how powerful Zhu Changyuan is, but he didn't see the light of the fifteenth brother of the Qing Dynasty: the first time he went out of the mountain with Huang Taiji, detoured to Mongolia and went straight to Beijing from Nianzikou, it was this young fifteenth brother who played the vanguard, and he was almost invincible all the way, and under the spear, there was no general.
The second time, at the time of the Songjin War, Hong Chengchou mobilized 400,000 troops to surround the main force of Huang Taiji, and it was this fifteenth brother Duoduo, who stood up with his prestige and ability, and under repeated conflicts, he found the breakthrough of Tang Tong, and broke out of the encirclement in one go, and then killed a horse gun, and led the army back to the same place to fight with the Ming army.
Later, he abandoned the infantry and only led the cavalry, and captured Jinzhou and Ningyuan all the way.
Duoduo became famous in two battles, which can be described as a brilliant achievement, compared with Zhu Changyuan, the uncle of the Ming Emperor who fought in the south and north in the Central Plains, at least in terms of data.
Therefore, it is not unreasonable for Dolgon to have the idea of fighting with Zhu Changyuan.
"No!"
However, as the commander of a country, Huang Taiji thinks much further.
There is a cloud in the art of war: the husband and the temple are counted, and if they are not counted, they will be defeated first.
Huang Taiji is the first to defeat at this moment.
Duoduo is powerful, with the strong cavalry advantage of the Great Qing Kingdom, he does have the strength and capital to fight with Zhu Changyuan, but Zhu Changyuan is not weak.
There must be an injury when the two tigers fight, in case it is Zhu Changyuan who fails, then it is easy to say, not only will the entire Liaodong in hand be further stabilized, but also Shanhaiguan will be captured, and it is more likely that you can look directly at the heart of the Ming Dynasty nakedly.
But what if Dodor is defeated?
This consequence is much more serious than after the defeat of the Ming Dynasty.
According to Zhu Changyuan's urine nature of not chasing the dead and not giving up, I am afraid that the entire Aixin Jueluo family may be wiped out.
When Zhu Changyuan pursued Zhang Xianzhong, that was a lesson from the past; Even if Li Zicheng was kicked out of Gansu by him? Now I'm afraid I don't know how to be at ease in that melancholy in the Western Regions.
After thinking about this, Huang Taiji categorically rejected Dorgon's suggestion from the bottom of his heart.
"The fourteenth brother will give Zhu Changyuan a letter tomorrow, and say, we want to negotiate peace, see what he wants?"
Taking the initiative to negotiate peace will certainly come at a heavy price. However, for Huang Taiji, as long as he can survive until this tiger is killed by his master, everything is worth it.
+++++++++++++
At this time, Zhu Changyuan was very happy in the Jiliao Governor's Mansion.
In front of her, Chen Yuanyuan sat down, playing the pipa and singing softly, singing slowly with her voice that can kill any man in seconds:
Outside the broken bridge,
Loneliness opens without an owner.
As soon as he sang two sentences, he was slapped on the table by Zhu Changyuan and shouted to stop.
"Chen Ji, don't sing this all the time, okay? Even if it's a big fish and meat all day long, I have a day when I get tired of eating, not to mention this tune, let's change it! ”
Zhu Changyuan actually likes to listen to this song, but when he thinks of Chen Yuanyuan singing this song, tears welled up in his eyes, and he thought of the southern country thousands of miles away, and his heart was sour.
Although she promised to help her find Mao Bijiang on the surface, she had already regarded Chen Yuan as her own forbidden body in her selfish heart, not to mention Mao Bijiang, it was Emperor Chongzhen, so he rushed over and tried it.
Therefore, no matter how generous a person is, he can't bear to think about other men, not to mention Zhu Changyuan, who is stingy.
"Yes, Marquis!"
Chen Yuanyuan was very polite to Zhu Changyuan, and Zhu Changyuan asked him to change it, then change it.
"Qin Huaibo painting boat in the smoke,
Bian Zhou is independent.
Looking back and looking away,
Hate desolation!
heavy fog in the heart of the river,
The wind blows the concubine's soft intestines.
Southern sisal with rain stands,
。。。。。 ”
All right.
Zhu Changyuan was deflated.
Although the tune has been changed, this singing is still in the same key, no matter how good it sounds, Zhu Changyuan can't help but feel a little bored.
"Let's stop." Zhu Changyuan waved his hand and said, "Chen Ji has been playing all morning, maybe he is tired, let's go back and rest first, I won't have to serve in the past few days." ”
This kind of service, not to eat, not to say, there is also a feeling of supporting a wife for others, it is very appropriate to use the four words to describe Zhu Changyuan's current mood with the words "living like a year".
Not long after Chen Yuanyuan went down, Zhu Changyuan received a letter.
The Epistle of Huang Taiji.
The text of the letter is not easy to understand, but Zhu Changyuan still roughly understands the meaning, almost saying that he doesn't want to fight anymore and wants to negotiate peace.
"Peace, it's very good, it's exactly what I want!" When Zhu Changyuan saw the end, he shook his head and muttered to himself: "It's good to negotiate peace, but your Emperor Taiji wants to learn from Sun Quan is a Mao meaning, do you want to eat Lao Tzu alone?" (To be continued.) )
