Chapter 169: The Eastern Expedition to the Wa Kingdom

Pangu. Close. It attracted the strength of the Ming army and the energy of the imperial court. Tingxi Yuan Chonghuan Zhouping, but there is no funding. Pressure from the military department to urge the show. and Wei Zhongxian's eunuch power, so that Yuan Chonghuan had to write to the imperial court and ask Wei Zhongxian to build an ancestral hall in the name of the minister.

It was not someone who wrote to Wei Zhongxian to build an ancestral hall that was approved, Zhu Youxiao originally wanted to win over Yuan Chonghuan as foreign aid, but Yuan Fanhuan also became a soft bone in front of Wei Zhongxian. It was only at this time that Zhu Youxiao appeared, and he, the emperor, was just a shield for Wei Zhongxian. It seems that the emperor has the most power, and the eunuchs can't survive without the emperor. In fact, Zhu Youxiao has been rumored to be a mediocre emperor in the court and local people, an emperor whose power has been hollowed out, but in fact he is nothing.

He really regretted using Wei Zhongxian to fight the Donglin Party, now that Wei Zhongxian is sitting big, the Donglin Party has collapsed, it seems that the courtiers still listen to him, the emperor, in fact, the emperor's order only works in the palace, not to mention the city of Beijing, even if you leave the palace, you have to nod Wei Zhongxian. Orders leaving Beijing must be signed with Wei Zhongxian's seal before they can take effect.

Tang Jing secretly told Zhu Youxiao, who had already decided to do something to Wei Zhongxian.

"Your Majesty, Wei Zhongxian's party is huge, and there are more than 30 people in the inner prison, including Wang Tiqian, Li Chaoqin, and Wang Chaofu. In the outer court, there were scholars Gu Bingqian, Wei Guangwei, etc., Wenchen Cui Chengxiu, Tian Ji, Wu Chunfu, Li Dielong, and Ni Wenhuan masterminded the discussion, and the "Five Tigers" Wuchen Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun, Sun Yunhe, Yang Huan, and Cui Yingyuan were the main killings, and the "Five Biao" also had ten dogs, ten children, and forty grandchildren, and the six cabinets to the governors and governors of the four directions, all of which were put to death. Right now, even Yuan Chonghuan has built an ancestral hall for Wei Zhongxian, Your Majesty, you must not turn your face against him! ”

Zhu Youxiao naturally understood the key, Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family killed several of his sons and daughters, as well as the pregnant concubine, with Wei Zhongxian's ruthlessness, he could be killed casually, and then support King Fu to succeed to the throne.

At the same time, the longer he waits, the more the people will hate him as the emperor, and the more Wei Zhongxian will be

Big.

"Your Majesty!" Tang Jing said: "Deng Haonan is Li Xiaoqi's brother, and now Nahao is famous, and he can be cited as foreign aid!" ”

Zhu Youxiao sighed: "What's the use of foreign aid? Shuntian Mansion is in the hands of Wei Zhongxian! ”

Tang Jing said: "Deng Haonan went south to suppress bandits this time. When he will make another great contribution, the emperor can reward him greatly. Let him go to Beijing to report on his work, and lead the troops to secretly serve the king! ”

Zhu Youxiao said worriedly: "If he is the king of Qin, wouldn't Lian want to crown him king?" ”

Tang Jing was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that Zhu Youxiao was a cousin who had been bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope. At the beginning, he supported Wei Zhongxian to fight the Donglin Party and sat on Wei Zhongxian. Now let the king of Hao Nanqin. It's no wonder if you don't worry!

So he said: "Then the emperor should leave the capital." Go to a safe place in the provinces, and then order the Quartet to oversee the king! ”

Zhu Youxiao shook his head and said, "Is the emperor still called the emperor when he leaves the palace?" Wouldn't Wei Zhongxian be even more unscrupulous! ”

Tang Jing knew that Zhu Youxiao had a lot of concerns, and if the emperor left the palace, then his rights would be greatly reduced. If you are used by careerists to "coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes", it will be miserable! At the same time, leaving the palace, Wei Zhongxian will definitely kill the killer without any scruples.

"The emperor is not as good as a tour of the south! In this way, the governors of all provinces know that as long as they go outside, there will always be people in Xiangjiang who do not have the same heart as Wei Zhongmao! ”

Zhu Youxiao's eyes lit up and said, "This is a good idea!" ”

As soon as he said he would do it, Zhu Youxiao ordered a southern tour the next morning. However, Wei Zhongxian and others tried their best to stop it, but Zhu Youxiao used Jun as the excuse that he had no jokes. Bent. Many of the ministers were dissatisfied with Wei Zhongxian, and now they see Zhu Youxiao insisting on touring the south. After a few words of persuasion, he stopped talking, and finally Fu Huang Liji seemed to sense Zhu Youxiao's intention, so he agreed.

The auxiliary minister agreed, and Zhu Youxiao got his wish.

β€»β€»

The Ming court ordered Di Haonan to go south to suppress the bandits, which made Liaoshen's Houjin Jurchen breathe a sigh of relief. The Golden State Fortress stood on the Liaodong Peninsula, for them. It was a huge nail, and it was very uncomfortable.

The center of gravity of the Liaodong Governor's Office turned to Zheng Zhilong. The pressure on Houjin has decreased sharply. So the internal contradictions of the Jurchens were inevitably put on the agenda.

Huang Taiji never went back, which made Mang Gurtai's plan come to naught. In order to prevent Azig from becoming the Great Khan, Mang Gurtai had no choice but to turn his face with Azig.

The two sides each occupied three banners, and they co-opted the courtiers and officials to accuse each other. However, both of them are illiterate guys, and it is difficult to get the approval of ministers on the issue of national governance.

Just when Azig and Mang Gurtai were evenly matched, Huang Taiji suddenly went back. In addition to the Zhengbai Flag, Huang Taiji brought back the full support of the entire Mongolian Horqin Department. So. In addition to the white flag, Huang Taiji has 50,000 more Korqin elites. At the same time, there were originally 20,000 Mongolian military flags in Shenyang, which also joined the ranks of supporting Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji's strength skyrocketed, and he steadily suppressed the three of Azig, Mang Gurtai and Amin. Of the four Baylors, only one can be the Great Khan. Amin's strength was the weakest after suffering heavy losses in the Golden State War, so he was annoyed with Azig and Mang Gultai and turned to support Huang Taiji.

And both Azig and Mang Gultai dismantled each other's platforms, and the last four Baylors became the result. Originally, the four great Beylers were abundant, and the power of the Great Beyler Daishan was the largest, and he was also the undisputed heir of the Great Khan.

Nurhachi intended to let Daishan succeed the Khan before his death, so Nurhachi planned to pass his wife Abahai to Daishan after his death, and at the same time acquiesced to Abahai's private relationship with Daishan. Unexpectedly, the matter of Abahai's secret private meeting with Daishan was shaken out by Huang Taiji, and Nurhachi naturally couldn't let the family ugliness be publicized, so it caused the "concubine incident"

However, Dai Shan's subordinates have recognized that they are only Xuan, so they support Dolxiang as the Great Khan Liudolxiang is also Bei Xi, and he is qualified to inherit. Many ministers also supported Dolxiang.

So Huang Taiji took the reason that Nurhachi was angry and wanted Abahai to accompany him, and the evidence of Abahai's affair with Daishan was conclusive, so he was stunned and insisted that Nurhachi hoped that Abahai would be buried with him before his death, and let Abahai be martyred alive.

Abahai refused, but Huang Taiji released a message to question whether Dordu was Nurhachi's own son. It's not good, it's a good seed, and I want to attack Dole.

In order to protect Dol Sell, Abahai ordered Dol to give up the fight for Khan, and she had to agree.

In this way, Abahai was martyred with the other two concubines, and the red flag and the red flag gave up supporting Doldu, and Huang Taiji let Dordu die.

Huang Taiji's ruthlessness made Azig and Mang Gurtai smash their tongues, and immediately said that they would no longer compete for the Khan position.

In this way, Daishan was imprisoned in Jinzhouwei and could not inherit the Khan. The ministers naturally supported Huang Taiji, except for Huang Taiji, who lived in Mongolia. In addition to the full support of the Horqin Ministry, but also because Huang Taiji is the only literate Baylor, and the only person with three years of experience in governing the country.

The Great Khan is none other than Huang Taiji, and although Azig and Mang Gurtai are unwilling, their strength cannot beat Huang Taiji at all, so they can only obediently hand over the positive yellow flag and inlaid yellow flag to Huang Taiji. In this way, Huang Taiji sat on the three banners and the Mongolian army flag, plus the Ke Kill Qin Department, that is, the Great Khan.

The ceremony of Huang Taiji's accession to the throne was held on July 1. At that time, the three major Beyler Amin, Mang Gurtai, Dol Zhen and all the Beylers, civil and military ministers gathered in the court, and Huang Taiji led them to burn incense to the sky. After the nine salutes, Huang Taiji is the Khan, turned around, and the ministers of Zhubeile made a congratulatory gift to Huang Taiji.

In this way, the thirty-five-year-old Emperor Taiji ascended the throne of the Great Khan. The second year was changed to the first year of Tiancong. Huang Taiji is called Tiancong Khan. On the second day, Huang Taiji led the ministers of Baylor to swear to heaven and earth, praying that the emperor and queen of heaven would "bless" the country. Huang Taiji himself swears, which says; "Today, my brothers, sons and nephews, with the weight of my family and the people of my country, push me as the king. Respect the cause of the imperial examination, admire the heart of the imperial examination, if I do not respect my brother, do not love my children, and do not follow the right path. Knowing what is unrighteous and doing it, brothers and nephews. He thought about it, so he cut down the account given by the imperial examination, or degraded or punished, and the heaven and earth condemned him, and praised his longevity. In addition to expressing their support for Huang Taiji, the three Baylors also separately stated that they would keep their oath and be loyal.

After ascending the throne, Huang Taiji faced pressure mainly from the Liaodong Governor's Office, and he was not satisfied with defending his success, and was determined to create a new situation. After he came to power, he was full of ambition and was helped by Fan Wencheng. In view of the internal affairs we are facing, a series of effective measures have been adopted. For example, the people were pacified, the Jurchen people were asked to stop hunting, and agriculture was greatly developed, and at the same time, the Eight Banners of the Han Army, the Eight Banners of the Mongolian Army, and the Eight Banners of Manchuria were organized to recuperate.

This qiē was all in the hands of the intelligence department of the Liaodong Governor's Office, Lin Feng and others had built a yì Deng Haonan let Dai Shan go back to fight with Huang Taiji for sweat, but that Haonan knew that Dai Shan could not fight Huang Taiji, so it was better to be imprisoned in Jinzhou Wei as a bargaining chip to blackmail Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji became the Great Khan two months earlier than in history, and for this result, Na Haonan knew that a large part of the Cheng dΓΉ was caused by him.

Yan Ran was depressed, but at the moment, Na Haonan needed to make every effort to prepare for going south to exterminate Zheng Zhilong, so the matter of Huang Taiji could only be put on hold for the time being.

After half a month of preparation, Deng Haonan's plan has undergone as many as six revisions. Finally, it was finalized.

On July of the A.D. year, Na Haonan held a grand naval parade at the Lushun Naval Base. All the officers and men of the Pacific Fleet and the 6th Naval Squadron were personally inspected by Deng Haonan.

On the 6th, Na Haonan ascended the altar to worship the heavens and personally mentioned the Pacific Fleet to crusade against the country.

Didn't you go south to suppress bandits? Why are you crusading against the kingdom of Xin?

The crusade against the state of Wei was only the beginning of the plan, and while the Liaodong Governor's Office agreed to the imperial court's southern expedition, it secretly released rumors that Deng Haonan's Nanyang naval division was not strong enough to compete with Zheng Zhilong.

Weakness!

That's right! Deng Haonan is the first to show weakness, not afraid that Zheng Zhilong will not believe it, because in Zheng Zhilong's concept, whoever has more ships and more tonnage is the overlord. Obviously, Zheng Zhilong's warships, both in number and tonnage, were far larger than Na Haonan's Pacific Fleet.

Showing weakness is the beginning of Deng Haonan's first step to paralyze Zheng Zhilong.

And the crusade against the country is to create an illusion for Zheng Zhilong that Deng Haonan does not dare to go south. In Zheng Zhilong's view, Na Haonan's crusade against the Wei Kingdom was to cut off Zheng Zhilong's trade routes with the Wei Kingdom. Hit Zheng Zhilong's financial resources.

Only two trading ports, Hirado and Nagasaki, were opened, not only because of the abundance of silver and grain in the vicinity, but also because of the fact that Korea was on the opposite side. The kingdom of Tsuya, which has always been eyeing North Korea. Under the influence of political and military tendencies, Hirado and Nagasaki became the three most prosperous cities in the province, the other being Kyoto. The kingdom was defeated in the Battle of Luliang, and the sailors had only more than 600 ships in the port of Sasebo.

More than 600 ships? Sounds scary!

Na Haonan was also taken aback at first. But I didn't know until I heard Wang Zhaoyang's explanation. It turned out that the warships of the Xinguo were troop carriers at best, and they were still at the level of manpower broadside warfare, and the warships were not large, mostly one or two hundred tons. Equipped with the iron cannon of the Xinguo country, the iron sharp caliber is large, copied from Spain, and the caliber is between six and twelve pounds. The iron cannon was not a cannon, but an improved version of the Spanish Mushkert arquebus, which almost occupied the Korean Peninsula back then. Later, after the Ming Dynasty captured the iron cannon of the Xinguo, he imitated the fire prosperium, which changed the situation of the war on the Korean Peninsula. Until the Daming Navy Division and the Korean Navy Division relied on the big warships to bully the small warships of the Weiguo Kingdom, won the Battle of Luliang, and killed Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Kou Fang in anger

It can be said that in the war of that year, the Ming Dynasty lagged behind the Kou in firearms at the beginning. However, with the strong national strength of the Ming Dynasty, the smart Han people quickly took the lead in firearms, and finally won the war.

Now, with the strong strength of the Pacific Fleet, it should be said that the overwhelming strength, Deng Haonan is confident that he will hurt the country at once and make them submit.

On the old day of July, the Pacific Fleet blockaded the Korean Strait, and the 5th Pacific Fleet blocked Ukushima Island opposite Nagasaki, and cooperated with the 6th and 7th Fleets to control all the routes in and out of Nagasaki and Hirado, and seized all passing ships. and shelled the port wharves of Hirado and Nagasaki, and the Saikoku Navy Commander cowered in the Sasebo Port and did not dare to come out, and the Hirado and Nagasaki ** teams returned fire with shore fire artillery.

Na Haonan's original intention has changed, and he was originally going to land the 6th country of Hirado and Nagasaki to plunder, but intelligence shows that the country of Japan was defeated by Spain and the Netherlands in naval battles, so the 6th Army was strengthened. 50,000 troops were stationed in Hirado and Nagasaki. I don't know the place of life. Therefore, Deng Haonan canceled the direct registration 6 plan. The general is plotting, and the siege of the city is far stronger than breaking the city and killing chickens and eggs.

On the day of the mouth, the Pacific Fleet boarded from Kiyoyo Port on Ukushima.6 The only more than 1,000 natives of Ukushima were purged. Ukushima served as Deng Haonan's temporary headquarters. As a temporary cobalt dumping station for the Pacific Fleet, Kiyobo Port sent various detachments to bombard Hirado and Nagasaki in turn every day, waiting for envoys from the country to negotiate.

At this time, although the king of the province was small in Kyoto, the real power was in the hands of the Edo-Tokyo shogunate.

The "Edo Shogunate" is also known as the "Tokugawa Shogunate". The third feudal military regime of the Wei Kingdom. The Tokugawa clan took Edo as its political base and opened the government to rule the world, so it was also called the Edo shogunate. Since 16 A.D. : Tokugawa Ieyasu was appointed as the shogun of the Seiyi Shogun in Edo, and it was not until 1867 that the fifteenth shogun Keiki returned the power of the government to the imperial court, that is, the great government was returned. About 265 years, it was the strongest and last samurai organization after the Kamakura and Muromachi shogunates.

At this time, the third generation of the Tokugawa shogunate was in power. Tokugawa Iemitsu, who served as the left minister and the right general. However, Toku's family is thousands of miles away in Edo, and it takes five days for the news to spread.

After consulting with Shimazu Yoshihiro, the general of the Sasebo Water Division, Shimazu Yoshihiro, the general of the Hirado town, and Hideho Kobayakawa of Nagasaki, the general of the Nagasaki town, he sent an envoy to Ukushima to negotiate with Di Haonan.

The envoy was Li Jingfang, a retainer of overseas Chinese Li Dan. He was accompanied by Hirado Shogun Yoshihiro Shimazu.

Na Haonan deliberately asked Shi Jianfei to take them to visit the Pacific Fleet first, so that they could see the power of the Pacific Fleet, and only when the two of them were frightened did they stay on the Black Pearl.

Facing the three-story gun deck and the tall Black Pearl, Shimazu Yoshihiro's heart has sunk to the bottom, and there are almost no bargaining chips for negotiation, and he is simply a lamb to be slaughtered.

Li Jingfang, as an intermediary, introduced Deng Haonan and Shimazu Yoshihiro to each other, and then assumed the role of turning Ze.

"Honorable Earl, I don't know what the Celestial Empire army wants to do when it suddenly invades?"

Na Haonan replied, "You sue me first." How long have you been trading with Zheng Zhilong?

"Five years!" Yoshihiro Shimazu replied without hesitation.

"Then do you know that Zheng Zhilong is a thief of the Ming Dynasty."

Shimazu Yoshihiro said suspiciously: "We only conducted legitimate trade with Zheng Zhilong, and did not support his rebellion!" ”

"You are aiding the abuse." That Haonan directly labeled him as an abusiver. "That's why we're crusading against you."

"You're arguing with strong words."

"Sending off!" Na Haonan didn't explain, and got up directly.

Li Jingfang hurriedly apologized and said, "Don't be angry, my lord. Is there something to discuss? I don't know what we have to do to get the adults to quit."

Na Haonan looked at Li Jingfang, and secretly said that this girl is quite upright, and she got to the point with one word. He didn't say that he would let Daming stop the army, but let Na Haonan stop the army, obviously he knew that the conquest of the country was just Deng Haonan's personal idea.

Na Haonan waved his hand, and the guard hurriedly took a copy of the text and handed it to Li Jingfang.

"It's all written on it! Let's go back and see for yourself! ”

After speaking, Di Haonan turned around and left. He knew that Li Jingfang and Shimazu Yoshihiro couldn't call the shots, so he didn't bother to talk to them and scare them.

Li Jingfang took the text, opened it and sighed.

As a native of the Ming Dynasty, Li Jingfang had no resistance to Deng Haonan's military operations, but the shelling of Hirado and Nagasaki greatly affected the Li family's business. That's why he accepted the invitation of the people of Xinguo and came over to act as a mediator.

However, since Li Dan died, many of the Li family's family properties have been assigned to Zheng Zhilong, and his voice and nose are no longer as good as before. Especially the son of the Li family is still in the hands of Deng Haonan, the Li family has sent people to negotiate with Na Haonan many times, but they have been directly refused, this time Li Jingfang is thinking of taking the opportunity to mention it to Deng Haonan.

Unexpectedly, Na Haonan seemed to guess his intentions, and before he could say anything, Di Haonan left.

Yoshihiro Shimazu asked, "What is written on it?" ”

Li Jingfang smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao told you, you have to be mentally prepared!" ”

Under no billing
