Just when Fan Wencheng was suffering from gains and losses, Huang Taiji, the Great Khan of the Jin Kingdom, finally spoke: "Mr. Fan, now that Zu Dashou has quelled the mutiny of Ning Yuanwei, it seems that our suspicious plan has not achieved the expected effect......"

Fan Wencheng looked respectful, took two steps forward, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Ning Yuanwei's mutiny was quelled by Minggou, which is indeed a bit unexpected. I'm afraid that Zhu Youzhen's kid is also jumping off the wall in a hurry, and he should be sent to quell the rebellion......"

Since Fan Wencheng surrendered, the Ming Dynasty emperor was not so respectful - he did not even call "Chongzhen", but called Zhu Youzhen by his name, which can be regarded as showing his "loyalty" in front of Huang Taiji.

You must know that in ancient times, calling the emperor by his name was a crime of destroying the door!

Huang Taiji's brows furrowed, and he pondered for a moment, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone: "Mr. Fan, when you analyzed the situation in the Ming Kingdom before, didn't you explain that the imperial court of the country had no salary to pay?" ”

Beads of sweat the size of soybeans immediately appeared on Fan Wencheng's head, and the whole person trembled slightly, obviously frightened.

In order to consolidate his position as the "No. 1 strategist of the Jin Kingdom" in the heart of the Great Khan Huang Taiji, he often analyzed the situation of the Ming Kingdom to Huang Taiji and "pointed out the country......

The disadvantages of the Ming Kingdom can be seen through by themselves, the court is getting less and less rich, while the official gentry class is getting richer and richer.

Thinking of all the officials in the Ming Kingdom being so rich, Fan Wencheng hated it so much-

More than ten years ago, Shenyang's Xuezheng was also blind, and his eight-strand essay test paper of "earth-shattering ghosts and gods" was actually sentenced to the last class, which made him unable to get an official in the Ming Dynasty!

Nima, now looking for a Tartar to recognize the thief as his father is just to eat. Am I easy?

"Mr. Fan......"

Huang Taiji was a little dissatisfied with Fan Wencheng's "distraction", and called out in a low voice.

Fan Wencheng quickly gathered his thoughts. He said with a humble face: "Your Majesty, the Ming Imperial Court is indeed short of money. A large part of their taxes were filled into the bottomless pit of Liaodong. This time to quell the Ningyuan mutiny, the minions thought that it must be Zhu Youzhen who sent the internal money! ”

"Inside?" Huang Taiji frowned slightly, he also knew that this "inner money" was Emperor Chongzhen's private money.

If Emperor Chongzhen gave private money as a military salary, then it would be no wonder that Mr. Fan......

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji's expression softened a little. He pondered for a moment, then asked Fan Wencheng, "Mr. Fan, there is no chance for Liaodong now...... Will the plan be settled? ”

Fan Wencheng coughed dryly, and replied loudly: "Your Majesty, Guangningwei and Ning Yuanwei in Liaodong are now just a few lonely cities!" ”

"Lonely City?"

Huang Taiji chewed on Fan Wencheng's words. It seems to have come to terms with the understanding.

It is clear that Jinzhou City of Guangningwei and Ningyuan City of Ning Yuanwei are both turtle shells, and they can't bite it.

Huang Taiji suddenly remembered the passage in the "Book of War" "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in which Cao Mengde said that Hanzhong, "chicken ribs" - tasteless food, and it is a pity to abandon it!

The key is that the narrow strip of Ning Yuanwei and Guang Ningwei stubbornly guards the road to the south of the Jin Kingdom, and there is a Shanhaiguan in the southernmost part, which is known as the "first pass in the world".

Huang Taiji's sense of "distress" is still very good, and he is not arrogant to the extreme like the average Eight Banner Banner Owners.

Now the country of Jin seems to be infinitely beautiful, but in fact, it is also full of dangers. If you can't open the situation again. If there is a virtuous monarch and a good minister in the Ming Kingdom, maybe it will be able to ease up in a few years!

The Mongols and Koreans are both grass on the wall, and they will take refuge in whichever side is stronger, and these people are not reliable at all.

On the contrary, the Han Eight Banners have been fighting quite hard in the past two years. Fighting bravely to kill the enemy, they all competed to be the first, and they dreamed of raising the flag - that is, they were registered as a flag. Become a Jurchen......

For a while, Huang Taiji's thoughts drifted a little farther away......

In history, the temple name of "Huang Taiji" is Qing Taizong, which is the same as the temple name of Nuer Hachi, Qing Taizu - generally the so-called Taizu Taizong of a dynasty is quite bullish.

In fact, both of them have enjoyed the blessings of posterity. When Qianlong compiled the "Four Libraries", he not only banned many books. It also maliciously falsifies a lot of history.

Let's talk about Nuer Hachi first, this chieftain from a small tribe has overcome all the obstacles, and finally established the Jin State, the capital of Shenyang, I have to admit that there are still a few brushes.

But-

The Jin State was nothing more than a separatist regime, not just the hinterland of Guannei, the traditional sphere of influence of the Han people, but only Liaodong.

There are countless princes in history who have been divided at the end of various dynasties and generations, and Nuer Hachi is just one of them.

He has some ability, but it is completely incomparable with the Taizu Yelu Abaoji of the Liao State in history, the Taizu Wanyan Agu of the Zhengzi Jin State, and even the later "generation of Tianjiao" Genghis Khan.

Although Yelu Abaoji did not conquer Youzhou City, the Liao State occupied the entire eastern part of Liaodong, and the land area reached the Altai Mountains of Xinjiang in the west and the Kent Mountains of Outer Mongolia in the north.

And Wanyan Aguta defeated the city of Beijing, as for Genghis Khan - does this still need to be compared with Nuer Hachibi?

And Nuer Hachi has not even completely unified Liaodong until his death.

The same is true of his son Huang Taiji, even after defeating Hong Chengchou in the decisive battle of Songshan in the last year of Chongzhen, Wu Sangui still occupies the Ningyuan Acropolis to disgust him.

Nuer Hachi and Huang Taiji are both capable people, at least much stronger than Chongzhen, but they don't have to be too high-

The "Qing History Manuscript" of the old and young relics of the Qing Dynasty said that Nuer Hachi was "blessed with wisdom and bravery, and the gods were superb", and this Nima Genghis Khan was estimated to crawl out of the grave and fight with him. He also said that he was "better than Yu Qi and Feng, and there is not much to give", which means that Nuer Hachi is not inferior to King Wen of Zhou and King Wu of Zhou!

King Wen of Zhou is a good separatist prince, but he wrote "Zhou Yi"; Needless to say, King Wu of Zhou is not a small separatist prince!

Nuer Hachi was just a separatist prince all his life. In the last battle of his life, the Battle of Ningjin, he was also taught to be a man by the round Hongyi Cannon, and he returned with a miserable defeat, and it is estimated that he died quite aggrieved......

Huang Taiji's military methods were not as good as his father's, but his political methods were much more old-fashioned, for example, he was quite courteous to people like Fan Wencheng who were willing to be the second Tartar.

Huang Taiji glanced at Fan Wencheng and said a little unwillingly: "Mr. Fan, Ningyuan and Jinzhou are like chicken ribs...... Alas! If there is a fire from the sky, it would be nice to burn those two fortified cities to the ground! ”

Fan Wencheng secretly glanced at Huang Taiji, and said in his heart: Ningyuan and Jinzhou, even if Your Majesty Zhu Rong possesses the body, if the fire burns out, there is still a "first pass in the world" Shanhaiguan waiting for you in the south!

In fact, Fan Wencheng had already thought of a countermeasure, so it was only a short moment before he spoke: "Your Majesty, the minister has a good plan......

"Good strategy?!" Huang Taiji's eyes were shining, and he immediately stood up, and continued: "Sir, please speak!" ”

Fan Wencheng originally wanted to brush his beard before his hand reached his chin, but suddenly remembered that he must not be rude in front of His Majesty, so he put his hand back stupidly.

After coughing dryly to hide his embarrassment, Fan Wencheng said loudly: "Your Majesty still remembers the second year of Chongzhen-ah, phew! Fan Wencheng immediately slapped himself and hurriedly corrected: "Tiancong three years - Your Majesty still remembers the three years of Tiancong?" ”

Huang Taiji heard Fan Wencheng blurt out the name of the "enemy country" first, and his face suddenly fell. Later, when I saw him slap himself, the scolding came to his mouth and he held back it vividly.

Huang Taiji's thoughts immediately drew to the third year of Tiancong - yes, the year when the Eight Banners warriors first entered the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty!

Seeing that Huang Taiji had already followed his train of thought, Fan Wencheng immediately fell to his knees with a thud, raised his voice and said loudly: "The slave asks Your Majesty to enter the hinterland of the Ming Kingdom from Xuanfu and Datong!" ”

In history, the Manchu Qing Dynasty or the Later Jin Dynasty entered the Ming Dynasty five times, namely the second, seventh, ninth, eleventh and fifteenth years of Chongzhen.

Originally, according to historical development, Huang Taiji would only make a detour to Duoyanwei next year, that is, the seventh year of Chongzhen, but now the situation forces him to enter the customs one year ahead of schedule, the reason is-

"Your Majesty, for the whole winter last year, the Jin merchants did not have a cart of grain and iron to be transported to Shenyang, and we urgently need supplies!"

Fan Wencheng's sentence is the point, and it hits the nail on the head.

The days in the north of Daming during the Xiaoice River were very difficult, and in the Houjin country, which was further north, those days were even more difficult.

Last winter, there was a heavy snowfall in Shenyang, and countless cattle and sheep were killed and injured, and the current situation in Jinguo has reached the point where non-looting is not enough to sustain itself.

The importance of Jin Shang to the Jin Kingdom is so important!

Huang Taiji nodded thoughtfully, and said in a deep voice: "Previously, Jin merchant Fan Yongdou once submitted a letter, saying that the Ningyuan Guards had wiped out all the convoys they sent to Shenyang-what do you think about this, Mr. Fan?" ”

Fan Wencheng has a natural affection for Jin Shang Fan Yongdou, everyone is doing things for Jinguo, and the so-called can't write two Fan characters in one stroke!

He didn't say a lot of good things for Fan Yongdou before, and later learned that the Ning Yuanwei official who robbed the Jin merchants seemed to be the governor of Ning Yuan, and he had an army of more than 10,000 people called the Tuanshan Army.

Fan Wencheng is still kneeling on the ground now, Huang Taiji has never thought of this stubble, and suddenly reacted at this moment, and said kindly: "Mr. Fan, let's be flat!" ”

Fan Wencheng got up from the ground and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the army of Ning Yuanwei who plundered the Jin merchant convoy is called the Tuanshan Army, and I heard that it was led by a civilian official named Zhang Li. ”

"Civil officer? Tension? Huang Taiji was slightly stunned, since Yuan Chonghuan, the civil officials of the Ming Kingdom in Liaodong are basically decorations, how could such a person pop up?

Fan Wencheng nodded slightly, and continued: "He was the Tanhua of Mingguo Enke last year, and I heard that he was still a Langzhong ...... before."

Huang Taiji snorted and laughed: "Haha, Lang Zhong? Tsk, Ming Guo is really a general in Shu, and Liao has become a pioneer! Hehe, there is no general in the Ming Kingdom! ”

Huang Taiji has a deep memory of the words in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", after all, it is the most bullish military book, so it is natural to write it down word by word...... (To be continued.) )
