Chapter 263: Zhang Ke is back
After almost a month of the defeat of Liaodong, a large area of land east of the Sancha River fell into the hands of Jiannu, and the Ming Dynasty only left a narrow corridor in Liaoxi, from Shanhaiguan, to Ningyuan, Jinzhou, to Yizhou, Guangning, and finally Panshan Fort, Xining Fort. ∷Top∷Point∷Small∷ said,
The little land is less than one-fifth of Liaodong, which means that four-fifths of the land has been lost. Less than 20,000 of the 100,000 troops remained, and more than three or four million civilians were lost.
This is not the most miserable, the huge Celestial Empire can't find anyone who is willing to be an official in Liaodong, and the scholars who are keen on fame and fortune hear the word Liaodong, all their legs tremble, and they hide as far as they can.
Of course, not everyone is like this, there is a person who has gone on the five folds in one breath and implores to leave the town of Liaodong, this person is Hong Fu!
The old gentleman has always been full of confidence in his disciples, and he firmly believes that Zhang Ke has a way to get out and come back, but the change in the tide almost makes him vomit blood.
Yanguan frantically attacked Zhang Ke and put the responsibility for the loss of Liaodong on him. This is not the end, some people say that the civil and military generals from Liaodong may have dealings with Jiannu, and they should not be used!
As soon as these words came out, a boatload of people was overturned, although there were not many officials in Liaodong, there were some of them, who were openly suspicious of the imperial court, who could stand it.
The disciple does not know whether he is alive or dead, and he has already made Hong Fu worried, and he has been questioned by others as a slave, which is simply the greatest blasphemy against his character. Who can afford to be a reader who regards the festival as his life!
Hong Shi bit his finger, and with the blood on his fingertips, he folded a book. He was ready to fight to the death, and he would give up the black yarn hat in a big deal, in short, he couldn't go down.
The next morning, Hong Fu knelt on the Danqi and wept bitterly.
"Shengshang, Weichen has the sincerity of the heart, and he will play with blood!" Hong Shiki kowtowed heavily, then straightened his waist. The loud voice was heard around every corner.
"Weichen was born in Liaodong, and now his hometown has fallen into the hands of the enemy, the villagers have been poisoned, relatives and friends and neighbors, wailing day and night, the ancestors are fertile soil, and they are fishy everywhere! Zhang Ke, a disciple of the minister, has been practicing elite soldiers and making military exploits since he started to write. For Daming, for the saint's enthusiasm, every day can be expressed. Now I don't know life and death, but there are ordinary petty people who wantonly slander and slander, disgrace Zhongliang, and chill the soldiers! The minister is not talented, so he can only ask His Majesty to allow the minister to go to Liaodong to clean up the mess, if he does not believe in the minister. Weichen is willing to ride alone and deal with Jiannu. If you are fortunate enough to have a horse leather shroud, it will also prove the loyalty of Wechen, and please fulfill it to the Holy One! ”
Hung Fu made an impassioned speech. Crawling on the ground, there is a great momentum that will not get up if it is not allowed.
All the ministers in the court looked at each other, and none of them were willing to stand up.
What can I say, although there are many twists and turns in attacking Zhang Ke. But so far, there is no reliable evidence, and Zhang Ke's life and death are uncertain. is sparse, and the complaint is already a stone. It's a little excessive, and he quarrels with Hong Fu in the court, that's both inside and faceless, and it's embarrassing!
The scholar still wants to save face, and seeing Hong Fuyi kneeling on the ground motionless, the big guy can't breathe.
The little emperor Tianqi closed his eyes and didn't say a word. These days, he is tormented by two different messages, and when he opens the courtiers' plays, they are all attacking Zhang Ke and attacking the generals. And the secret guard sent by Wei Zhongxian said that the civil officials were incompetent, commanded indiscriminately, and buried Liaodong.
"Quarrel, quarrel, I'll see what you can do!" The little emperor thought about it secretly, and he waited to see how the courtiers reacted.
The first to speak was the second assistant Gu Bingqian, who peeked at a group of people in Donglin, and then said: "Your Majesty, the minister thought that Hong Xiqi had served as the governor of Liaodong before, and he had a good way of governing the army. Now that Liaodong is in collapse and almost irretrievable, it is supposed to send Lord Hong to clean up the mess, and I have no more suitable candidate than him! ”
"I disagree!"
The first one to jump out was the official department Shangshu ** Xing, as a senior of Donglin, and in charge of personnel power, ** Xing didn't take the second assistant in his eyes at all.
"Hong Saijiu wants to go out of Liaodong, whether it is the governor or the strategy, they are all important ministers of the feudal territory, and they must be pushed by the court, and the rules of the court cannot be changed at will."
Gu Bingqian smiled slightly: "Tingtui? Zhao Dazai, the court has quarreled for so many days, and no one dares to go to Liaodong. Now that Lord Hong has taken the initiative to put it forward, you want to push it, dare to ask, do you have a candidate? ”
"How could it not be!" **Xing stroked his beard and said, "The predecessor of Liaodong Jingluo Xiong Tingbi is not bad!" ”
Hong Fu wanted to leave Liaodong, first, to find Zhang Ke's whereabouts, if he was still alive, even if he paid a big price, he would rescue Zhang Ke. Second, if it really ...... It is also necessary to clear the stigma of students.
Therefore, Hong Shiki is determined to win, he can't wait any longer, he has to do something. I never expected that the Donglin Party actually launched Xiong Tingbi, when it comes to seniority and official positions, Hong Fu is far inferior to Xiong Tingbi, he is a Jinshi of Wanli for 26 years, he is a Jinshi for Wanli 41 years, a difference of 100,000 years, people have been a strategy, he is the governor.
No matter how you calculate it, don't even think about it!
It's just that last time Xiong Tingbi fell, Donglin made a lot of efforts, and now the enemies have been reconciled again, which is exactly what he said, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.
Gu Bingqian sneered: "Lord Zhao, if I remember correctly, many people said before that Xiong Tingbi had no strategy, no enterprising heart, and wasted national funds in vain, how could he take it back in a blink of an eye, it would be too fast!" ”
Shoufu Ye Xianggao suddenly smiled and said: "The world is different, just suffered a big defeat, Xiong Tingbi is good at guarding, he is the right person for Liaodong Jingluo, as for the governor, Guangning Senator Wang Huazhen is not bad." As for the Hong Sacrifice Wine, I won't bother you! ”
Hong Shiyi smiled contemptuously, took off the black veil on his head with both hands, and put it aside.
"Shengshang, what Shoufu and Zhao Shangshu said to put it bluntly is that they thought that Hong was from Liaodong, and my disciple was said to have surrendered to Jiannu! You must know that Zhang Ke killed Mongol Ertai and captured Shuotuo and Anfeiyangu, and his enmity with Jiannu is as deep as the sea, how can he surrender? Even if it is surrendered, how can the old slave tolerate it! To fabricate such lies is nothing more than to spread rumors and slander! Wechen disdains such people to argue, and only asks for the grace of the saint, even if we let Wechen be the big soldier and die on the battlefield, it is better than facing a group of filthy Xiaoxiao! ”
Hong Shiki scolded directly, not polite at all, and many people turned red. There are also people who are not convinced, pondering how to play the impeachment of Hong Shiki and the sin of roaring the court!
The apocalypse on the dragon chair let out a long sigh. said: "Hong sacrifice wine to flatten down!" I believe in your loyalty, and I believe that Zhang Ke will not fail me! ”
When Hong Shi heard this, his eyes were hazy with tears, and he sobbed in a low voice.
"Holy Wisdom!"
Tianqi pondered for a while, and then said: "I have already sent people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei to investigate, and I don't even have any news from Master Zhang. Want to come ......."
Tianqi didn't speak, but everyone understood that it was definitely more than lucky, and three days ago, the general soldiers Li Bingcheng and Zhu Wanliang had fled back to the capital, and they disguised themselves as Huazi to ask for food. Begging all the way back, not to mention the wolf bèi.
"I asked Li Bingcheng and others that Yang Lian and Yuan Yingtai were indeed alive and dead, and Zhang Ke led his troops in a battle in the Hunhe River, killing tens of thousands of Jiannu, and made outstanding achievements. Since then, Zhang Ke has disappeared and has not been heard from since. I thought they were all loyal ministers, and they should be rewarded together. The courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty are only allowed to play how to save the time from now on. Don't attack wantonly, and if you violate me, you're welcome! ”
Although Apocalypse is not clever enough, it doesn't mean that he is stupid, as long as it takes a little more time. I can still think things through. Now that all the parties are dead, even if they quarrel for 10,000 years, it will be useless at all except for the party and the party.
It's better to simply chase both parties down. Shut everyone's mouths, and then concentrate on solving the problem of Liaodong.
The world is the largest, and although the apocalypse is emotionally biased towards Zhang Ke. But he had to play with the mud.
When the people of the Donglin Party heard this result, although there was a gap with what they imagined, they retreated with their whole body, so it was better to nod!
At this time, the eunuch Xiao Fuzi secretly ran to Wei Zhongxian's ear and muttered a few words, Lao Wei's face was happy for a while, sad for a while, it was as wonderful as a Sichuan opera!
"Wei Daban, what are you talking about?"
Apocalypse asked, Lao Wei came back to his senses and hurriedly knelt on his knees.
"The master is overjoyed!"
"What's the joy of?"
"Long live the master, Lord Zhang is back!"
"What?"
Tianqi stood up excitedly and grabbed Wei Zhongxian.
"Wei Daban, you didn't lie to me, Zhang Ke is really alive?"
"How dare the old slave deceive the master, Lord Zhang Ke Zhang has indeed returned safely, and he is at the Tianjin dock at this time, waiting for the will of the Holy Lord!"
"Great, I want to listen to what Zhang Ke has to say in person, and send someone to greet me immediately!"
The conversation between the two people is not loud, but it is like a super bomb detonating, shaking everyone to be scorched on the outside and tender on the inside!
Zhang Ke didn't die, this kid's life is too big, how did he come back!
The people of the Donglin Party instinctively felt bad, Ye Xianggao and **Xing, Zou Yuanbiao and others exchanged glances, and Ye Xianggao stood up.
"Qi Song Sheng, these days, from time to time fake officials have fled back from Liaodong, it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, and the imperial court should be cautious."
Apocalypse listened patiently and asked, "Shousuke, what do you think?" ”
"The old minister thought that he should send the cabinet and the three law divisions to identify it, and it was indeed Lord Zhang, so that he could enter Beijing."
"It seems to make sense, too." Tianqi muttered to himself: "Hurry up and send people, within three days, I want to see Zhang Ke!" ”
The early dynasty is finally over, some people are happy and some are sad, Hong Shiki is crying and laughing for a while, and tears of excitement come out. The apprentice finally returned, and the sky became bright again, the earth became verdant again, and the world was beautiful all at once.
After several bigwigs from Donglin went down, they hurriedly got together. Zhang Ke is back, their previous attacks have all failed, and Zhang Ke's style is clear to them, this kid will definitely retaliate.
Han Yi gritted his teeth and said to several colleagues: "Ladies and gentlemen, strike first, we must solve the scourge of Zhang Ke!" ”
Ye Xianggao sighed: "It's easier said than done, Zhang Ke, this kid is cunning, I'm afraid that if you can't fight the tiger, you will be injured by the tiger." ”
"Yuan Weng, I have a clever plan to make Zhang Ke obediently ambush and punish without leaving any handle." (To be continued......)
