Chapter 14 The New Tripartite Policy
"Kill, kill, I want to kill Qiu Jiahe, kill Wu Xiang, kill Song Wei......"
The Forbidden City's Heart Nourishing Palace, broken porcelain pieces all over the ground, Chongzhen's pale face with a sickly chΓ‘o red, with a little crazy non-stop roar.
Liaozhen, which had an annual salary of several million taels of Liao, once again reported good news to him, and only a few thousand of the 50,000-strong army fled back to Jinzhou, with countless losses of guns, artillery, horses, and vehicles. The Liao salary collected through strict performance appraisals was wiped out in the repeated defeats of Liao Town
Cao Huachun knelt on the ground and cried bitterly with tears streaming down his face: "The emperor takes care of his body, if he hurts his body because of those Qiu Ba, the slave and maid will be guilty of a great crime." β
Chongzhen sat down dejectedly, stayed for a while, and picked up the Tang newspaper forwarded by the Ministry of War, Sun Chengzong had fled back to Ningyuan, leaving a Qiu Jiahe in Jinzhou like a frightened bird, with the destruction of Liaozhen and Beizhili JΔ«ng soldiers, the Ningjin defense line was empty, and the only one who could fight was only the 9,000 Sichuan Army in Shanhaiguan. The border defense of Jizhen was noisy, and everyone was worried that Jiannu would enter the border again, and even if a few Mongolian herdsmen appeared, the local defenders would be able to flee.
"Why do I have a wide range of worlds, but I have no power to fight back in the face of Jiannu?" Chongzhen looked at Cao Huachun on the ground, and seemed to be asking himself again, "Since the time of Shenzong, my Ming Dynasty has not won a single victory against Jiannu, the 100,000 army of Sarhu has been defeated, Liaoshen has another 100,000, and Guangning has 120,000 ......."
Chongzhen stopped talking, after Guangning, there were Liuhe, the entrance and so on, he didn't want to recall, although the battle between Ningyuan and Ningjin was held, but compared with the Ming army's annihilation again and again, he knew that it was far from a victory. The only thing that can show your hand is the Battle of the Four Cities. The actual elimination of Jiannu was only more than 1,000
A feeling of utter depression came over him, and he even began to miss his life as a king. There is an emperor brother, and he only needs to read books and play every rì. Today's imperial life has made him in a kind of panic every time, maybe a bad news will come at any time, and he has no way to deal with it.
There is another pile of notes on his imperial case, among which there are excerpts of Liang Tingdong and Sun Chengzong's pleas. What's more, it is the impeachment of Sun Chengzong and Qiu Jiahe, and the 50,000-strong army will be wiped out in one day, and Sun Chengzong must be punished this time.
Chongzhen was in a depressed mood, and he didn't want to read those excerpts about the defeat of Changshan, so he picked up a copy from the other side with a deep face. Looking at it, his brows furrowed even deeper, this was originally Yu Yinggui's impeachment of Zhou Yanru.
"The ministers impeached the first assistant Yanru, and the first one pointed out that he was subject to the mink white skull, and those who were constantly protecting him would be Fu Sun Yuanhua. What is the current view of Yuanhua? Jiuyi slaughtered, Dengzhou trapped...... The people of the country who have spent 990,000 years have been anointed to pay for the passing waves, who has actually caused it? Who is the presiding officer to make Yuanhua a long-term stable place? Who is artificially disguised. Is there virtue to harbor evil intentions? Can you not hate Yan Ruhu? Ministers do not care about anything else, that is, the proposed end of the Confucianism...... Every time Yuanhua advances a discussion, Yanru has more protection...... Cheng Youde rebel, not Sun Yuanhua but Zhou Yanru. See you here. The ticket is going to be saved, and the emperor will try to read it briefly......"
Chongzhen hasn't finished reading it, and it's another difficult thing to do. He threw it on the table, and leaned weakly on the back of the chair. Rubbing his forehead, he let out a long sigh.
Cao Huachun saw that Chongzhen's feelings gradually became peaceful. He waved his hand and called the two little eunuchs to clean up the broken porcelain pieces on the floor. Cao Huachun glanced at the table, and dozens of notes to impeach Zhou Yanru were piled up, mainly to impeach him for accepting huge bribes from fellow villager Sun Yuanhua, and taking good care of Sun, and Sun Yuanhua's expression had obviously become the basis for Yushi's exhaustive pursuit and fierce attack.
Chongzhen was not a young man who had just ascended the throne, and he knew that there was often another purpose hidden in the righteous words of these court officials, and although he could not sometimes tell what they wanted, he would not make a hasty decision.
And this time the imperial history group attacked Zhou Yanru, the person behind the push, Chongzhen can guess who it is, in terms of ability and balance, Chongzhen still values Zhou Yanru more, and will not move his position as the first assistant for the time being, and he still needs to continue to observe Wen Tiren.
If Zhou Yanru is not moved, it does not mean that he will let Sun Yuanhua go, Sun Yuanhua has been in Dengzhou for more than a year, which makes Chongzhen lose his appetite, and in the many recitals reported by Wang Tingxuan and Lu Zhi, it is even more clear that the culprit of the Dengzhou mutiny is Sun Yuanhua. At present, Sun Yuanhua has been sent to Beijing, along with Wang Zheng, Yu Dacheng, Zhang Tao and others.
Cao Huachun waited for a few little eunuchs to finish cleaning, and whispered to Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, do you want the slave maid to send some snacks......
"No, I don't want to eat it." Chongzhen opened his eyes, "Where is Sun Yuanhua locked up now?" β
"Locked up in Jinyi Weibei Town, Lord Xu Guangqi thinks that when he is imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department, the first assistant has not been drafted, and the celebrant asks the emperor to judge ......"
"Just locked up in Beizhen Fusi, Yu Yinggui is right, the people of the country with an annual fee of 990,000 yuan are all anointed to pay for the death of the waves, and Sun Yuanhua will not escape the blame." Chongzhen said lightly, "Let Jinyi Wei thoroughly investigate Sun Yuanhua." β
Cao Huachun heard that he didn't mention Zhou Yanru, and he firmly remembered this matter in his heart, and when he arranged for Jinyiwei, he couldn't first involve Zhou Yanru, the first assistant.
He was about to leave, when there was a rush of footsteps outside, and a eunuch came in a hurry to report, saying that Liang Tingdong asked to see him, and there was an urgent report from the military department.
Chongzhen's heart shook again, the recent emergency reports of the military department were all bad news, so he almost didn't want to watch their performances. However, he is the emperor, the supreme ruler of the Ming Empire, and he has no room for shirk.
Chongzhen sighed and said, "Let him in." β
Liang Tingdong hurriedly ran in, knelt directly on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, the squire of the military department is temporarily in charge of the governor of Denglai, and Wang Ting's emergency report ......"
Chongzhen covered the nervousness in his heart, and said in a flat tone as much as possible: "You choose what matters." β
"The previous report Lushun Chen sometimes had defections, but now it is found out to be true by the supervising army Lu Zhi, and Chen Xin, the deputy chief soldier of Dengzhou Town, was sent to lead the Wendeng battalion, and Chen was captured in one fell swoop. When the situation in Lushun was not stable, there was a Jinzhou Jiannu sentinel to visit Lushun, Wang Ting tried to determine that Jinzhou Jiannu would take the opportunity to attack, so Chen Xin set up an ambush in the middle, defeated thousands of Jiannu in Siping Mountain, beheaded more than 420 levels, and captured a few. β
Chongzhen's mouth opened slightly in surprise, and he suddenly stood up and interrupted him excitedly: "Quickly bring the song to me." β
Cao Huachun hurriedly grabbed the song and handed it to Chongzhen with both hands, Chongzhen couldn't wait to open it, and said to Liang Tingdong who was kneeling while looking: "Liang Aiqing, you continue." β
"Wang Ting tried to predict that Jinzhou Jiannu was already frightened, and then ordered Chen Xin to send troops to attack, Wendeng Battalion went down to Jinzhou in a battle, and now Jinzhou is in the hands of my Ming Dynasty, and Jinzhou has been recovered, Emperor." Liang Tingdong said excitedly, in fact, Jinzhou is not usually important, it has also been occupied by Dongjiang Town before, but at the moment of the defeat of Changshan, it has a completely different meaning.
Hao Zhen laughed a few times, quickly finished reading the report, and couldn't hide his excitement, just walking back and forth behind the imperial case, "Wang Tingtry is still a soldier, knowing that the Jiannu soldiers are defeated and hit with a drum, Jinzhou, Liaonan has a lot to do, a lot to do." β
However, Chongzhen immediately stopped and smiled at the two: "Of course, it still has to be Vice General Chen brave and good at fighting to have this great victory." However, Wang Ting's strategic work is also indispensable. β
Liang Tingdong immediately took out another notebook, raised his head and said loudly: "Wang Tingqian is quite talented, and there is another note with the good news, and the new tripartite arrangement is planned. β
Chongzhen personally went to take it, as if he got a long-awaited thing, Wang Tingtried to be a military squire for two years, and never made Chongzhen remember it as deeply as today.
"With Guanning in western Liaoning as the head, Hui Ji Town, Liao Town, Shizhu, and Zhejiang JΔ«ng soldiers gathered to block the enemy's westward advance; Denglai is the waist, receives Lushun into Dengzhou Town, transfers Wen Deng's camp to a town guard, responds to Denglai and Wen Dengzhou's divisions, hits the enemy's southern four guards, and coerces the three forks; With the Dongjiang River as the tail, the number of troops is inspected, supplemented by the Phi Dao and Korean naval divisions, and the Zhenjiang River is restored, and the three sides correspond before and after, and the head and waist and tail retreat and advance the other, so that the East slave has no time to look west......"
The more Chongzhen looked at it, the brighter his eyes became, with the victory in the Battle of Jinzhou, Wang Ting's performance was very convincing. He quickly knew the general meaning of Wang Ting's test, that is, Denglai changed his original status of only providing logistics and became the most important link in the three parties, among which Wang Tingtry had his own ambitions, but there was also a lot of viability, and the most important thing was the Wendeng camp.
Chongzhen was still not busy deciding, but sat down and pondered.
Liang Tingdong waited for a long time and didn't hear any movement, raised his head and whispered: "Your Majesty ......"
"This new tripartite arrangement is planned to stay in China first, and it involves military affairs, Liang Aiqing should not say anything to others."
Liang Tingdong hurriedly agreed, and was led away by a eunuch, the military department had the victory of Jinzhou as the confidence, Liang Tingdong had room to turn around, and it could be seen that the emperor's attitude towards him was not bad, and Liang Tingdong's steps were much brisker when he left. But he didn't know why Chongzhen still didn't agree with this strategy, and what else needed to be considered.
After Liang Tingdong left, Chongzhen asked Cao Huachun to grind the ink, and wrote indiscriminately on the paper with a pen, Cao Huachun peeked at it, but it was some names, including Zhou Yanru, Wang Tingxian, Wen Tiren, Chen Xin, Sun Yuanhua and so on. Cao Huachun immediately thought that Chen Xin was from Wen Tiren's faction, and this matter was known to everyone, and even Wen Tiren himself never shied away from it.
Chongzhen wrote for a while, but his eyes were a little scattered, obviously thinking about things other than the paper. Cao Huachun didn't dare to make any sound, and even the movement of grinding ink was extremely slow.
"Cao Companion, who does this royal court love to walk around?"
Cao Huachun's eyes rolled, knowing what the emperor was worried about, and hurriedly replied: "The slave maid has only heard from others that it is said that the royal court has been in Beijing for two years, and he doesn't like to move around with people very much, and even among his colleagues in the military department, there is also a general friendship. β
Zhen lifted his pen, was silent for a while, and finally wrote on the note, "Jiawang tried to make the imperial envoy of Denglai and Dongjiang, prepare troops to aid Liao, restore the Jingai Zhuwei, and change Lushun and Jinzhou to Dengzhou Town." β
After writing, he dipped the ink again, gently dragged the pen on the edge of the inkstone a few times, and took the reply to the recital that began Yu Yinggui's impeachment of Zhou Yanru, "Yu Yinggui heard the words and things, arbitrarily slandered the head and auxiliary Zhou Yanru, blasphemous, engraved the rank of three levels, and took care of things as usual." β
Chongzhen handed Yu Yinggui's piece to Cao Huachun, and said lightly: "Enter Yu Yinggui's book into the newspaper." β
ps: Ask for recommendations and monthly passes.
