Chapter 298: The Difference

Faced with Hai Lanzhu's question, Yue Yang was speechless, and finally had to shake his head: "Okay, I admit that I really have a different view of the Chahar tribe, and there are indeed some things between me and Namu Zhong, but this is not the reason why I have spared no effort to support them in the past two years. ”

"In this way, you have long wanted to attack the Mongolian subordinates outside the Guan." Hai Lanzhu asked with some surprise.

"Yes!" Yue Yang nodded, "In fact, although the Manchus themselves have a certain strength, the scarcity of the population determines that they are by no means a nation that can afford to fight a war of attrition, which Huang Taiji knows, and the Manchu high-level also knows." And you have also seen over the years, why did those Manchurians go around desperately to fight for allies, why did they want to marry the daughters of Mongolian tribes to be Fujin, and why did they marry their own women to Mongolian tribes, in order to deepen the relationship with the Mongolian tribes? As long as I cut off the Mongol tribes from the Manchus, it would be equivalent to cutting off one of their arms, and it would be much easier to deal with them in the future. ”

"That's why you're so desperate to help the Chahar tribe, aren't you?"

"Yes!" Yue Yang nodded, "What the Chahar tribe lacks is only food and daily necessities, what I lack is a foothold outside the gate, as long as we are combined, we can threaten the Manchurians from the flank, and if Huang Taiji plays any conspiracy in the future, I can kick his ass!" ”

"Xianggong, do you really want to start a full-scale war with the Manchus in the future?" Hai Lanzhu sighed softly, she had already forgotten about Yue Yang and the Doro Empress Doro's Namu Zhong.

Yue Yang stood up and walked behind Hai Lanzhu and gently hugged her and comforted: "You don't have to worry, Huang Taiji is nothing to be afraid of, haven't I fought with them several times in the past few years?" I don't see him doing this to me. ”

Hai Lanzhu gently leaned his head into Yue Yang's arms, and then gave him a blank look: "That was before, in the past, Huang Taiji didn't deal with you with all his strength, it was because you didn't deal with you because he couldn't pull out, and now the Mongolian tribes have been almost governed by him, and you also show that there is too much of a threat." I estimate that it won't be long before Huang Taiji will take action in person, and this time it's not just like the original to send a few elder brothers or Baylor to deal with you. I estimate that he must rush back to deal with you in person, the spy of the Arikawa Division who is lurking in Shengjing has already come with information, Huang Taiji is now rearming for war, and it is estimated that it will not be long before he will lead a large army to deal with you. ”

"Let's talk about it then, anyway, sooner or later I will have a fight with Huang Taiji." Yue Yang still had a nonchalant look.

"Why are you like this? People are serious with you! Seeing that Yue Yang still looked indifferent, Hai Lanzhu screwed him angrily, "Do you think that Huang Taiji will send people to harass him like before, grab something, and run away if he can't beat it." This time, people are really here, and I got the news, Huang Taiji's health is not very good, I'm afraid he won't last a few years, according to his temperament, he will definitely break off with you before he dies! ”

"Okay, I got it!" Seeing that Hai Lanzhu seemed to be really angry, Yue Yang put away the smile on his face and said, "Don't worry, although Huang Taiji is not simple, I am not a vegetarian when you are a father-in-law." You can rest assured! It's just that how did you get the news that Huang Taiji's health is not good, our Youchuan Division is already so powerful, and he can find out such secret news? Although I know that your sister is Huang Taiji's side Fujin, she shouldn't tell you anything like this, right? ”

"Of course not." Hai Lanzhu gave him a blank look. "I estimate that this news is ten likely** true, this should be deliberately spread by a certain Manchu Baylor or the prince, just to prepare for the battle for the Khan throne after the death of Huang Taiji in the future."

"And this? He wouldn't die so quickly, would he? Yue Yang was a little confused, he remembered that he was in another time and space. Huang Taiji was braided in 1643, that is, Chongzhen's sixteenth year, and there are still seven years to go. Could it be that he was finished prematurely because of the flickering of his little wings?

The more Yue Yang thought about it, the more his mind became a mess, and finally he shook his head and decided to ignore these things. After pondering for a while, he said: "That's it, since Huang Taiji has decided to do something to us, then we can't be idle, now that our troops have reached 30,000, it's time to show our savings." In a few days, General Yang will hand over the three guards of Xuanfu to me, and then we will be directly connected to the territory of the Chahar tribe, and I will send another 7,000 soldiers and horses to be stationed in the Chahar tribe, let's clean up the disobedient tribes around us first, and then it will be a military training! ”

As soon as she heard about the war with other Mongolian tribes, Hai Lanzhu smiled and asked, "Xianggong, do you need my Abu to send troops to help you?" ”

"Forget it, you better save it." Yue Yang smiled and scratched Hai Lanzhu's upturned nose, "If you Abu really send troops to help me fight, those full people will have to jump, are you sure that your Abu is ready to turn against Huang Taiji?" ”

"That's it." Hai Lanzhu shook her head a little stupidly, the current Horqin tribe can't afford to be prepared to turn against the Manchus.

"Alright, let's not think about it so much. Xianggong I am now not what it used to be, now even if it is against the emperor Taiji alone, we are not without a chance of winning, the only thing we are worse than him today is that there are fewer soldiers, but this is nothing, we are not short of people, you wait, as long as there is another year, we will not have to be afraid! Yue Yang looked at the Daming map hanging on the wall, and his voice was extremely resolute......

The sunset slowly moved to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, shining on the imperial city of the Ming Dynasty is particularly beautiful, but this kind of scenery is very bad in the eyes of some people, and Luo Yangxing is one of them.

Today's Luo Yangxing is still wearing the python robe given by Chongzhen, and the four-clawed golden python embroidered on the red and black python robe keeps fluttering in the evening breeze, like a frightened little snake.

Luo Yangxing walked briskly in the corridor of the Wenhua Palace, he was in a hurry, he couldn't care about his demeanor, because he was walking too quickly, even though it was winter, a layer of white sweat still oozed from his forehead.

When he walked to the door of the Wenhua Palace, Luo Yangxing saw a eunuch in royal blue clothes walking not far away, Luo Yangxing saw the other party, his face showed a hint of joy, and he hurriedly trotted all the way forward and beckoned: "Gonggong Cao." Please stay! ”

The person who came was Cao Huachun, the chief eunuch of the celebrant supervisor, and when he saw Luo Yangxing calling his house, Cao Huachun stopped and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Lord Luo, I don't know where Lord Luo is going in a hurry?" ”

Luo Yangxing took a breath, and then said: "Lord Cao, you are asking knowingly, where else can Luo go when he enters the palace except to meet the emperor." It's just that Luo went to Nuanxiang Pavilion just now but didn't see the emperor, and dared to ask Gonggong Cao, where is the emperor resting now? ”

Cao Huachun replied: "Today, Lord Hong Chengchou was ordered to return to Beijing, and the emperor summoned him in the Wenhua Hall today, which is just right." You and I will meet the emperor together. ”

Luo Yangxing smiled bitterly: "Father-in-law Cao doesn't want to laugh, the etiquette can't be abolished, without the emperor's summons, how dare Luo dare to meet without permission." ”

Cao Huachun nodded: "Nacheng, you wait here for a while, and then pass you in after our family goes in to the emperor." ”

"Then I'll bother Grandpa Cao!" Luo Yangxing thanked him and honestly stood next to the pair of stone lions and waited for the summons.

After a while, a little eunuch came out to pass Luo Yangxing in. Luo Yangxing followed the little eunuch through the front hall and walked all the way to the back hall of Wenhua. Emperor Chongzhen was seen in the east room, Chongzhen was sitting on a carved dragon chair covered with yellow mats, Cao Huachun was standing beside Chongzhen, and to the left of Chongzhen stood an official wearing a vermilion embroidered crane pattern. I saw that the official was nearly fifty years old. Medium build, sideburns and beard are still black, and eyes are shining, giving the impression of being shrewd and strong. This person was none other than Hong Chengchou, who served as the governor of the three sides.

Luo Yangxing quickly stepped forward and knelt down and said loudly: "The command room of the minister's Jinyi Guard, Luo Yangxing knocks on my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

"Luo Aiqing doesn't have to be polite!" Chongzhen waved his hand and signaled Luo Yang's body to be flat.

Chongzhen's mood looks pretty good today. There was a slight smile on his face. Seeing Luo Yangxing standing up, he asked with a smile, "Luo Aiqing, what good news did you bring to me today?" ”

Luo Yangxing said with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know if it's good news, last night, the minister received a secret report from Shengjing, the chief of the Jiannu thief, Taiji, is actively collecting grain and grass and mobilizing soldiers and horses, and I don't know where to prepare to use troops." ”

"What? Huang Taiji is preparing for war again? Chongzhen was startled, glanced at Hong Chengchou and hurriedly asked, "Is the news accurate?" ”

Luo Yangxing replied in a deep voice: "The minister does not dare to deceive the emperor, this news has been confirmed several times, it is absolutely true!" ”

Chongzhen suddenly got up, stood up and said angrily: "Okay, you thief, you were just beaten out by me two months ago, and now you want to offend my border again, is it really my Daming Iron Rider who is a vegetarian?" ”

Seeing Chongzhen's angry appearance, Luo Yangxing was startled, but he originally wanted to stand up, but he knelt down again, lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything.

Hong Chengchou frowned, pondered for a while before saying: "Your Majesty, there is something strange about this matter, it is said that Jiannu has just suffered a big loss, killing and wounding nearly 20,000 people and horses, and now they should be recuperating and waiting for the next year to heal their wounds and then become enemies of my Daming, why are they going to war with my Daming so soon, this is not reasonable!" ”

Chongzhen said angrily: "What's so hard to guess, Huang Taiji lost face this time, and he must be jealous in his heart, and he wants to take revenge!" ”

"That's not right!" Hong Chengchou shook his head and said: "Although Jiannu is vulgar, Huang Taiji is also familiar with military books, and naturally knows that it is not appropriate to fight again after the defeat, otherwise it will be absolutely useless to fight with the country and himself, he will not understand this truth, how can he use swords and soldiers without permission?" Lord Luo, is there any other news in Shengjing these days? ”

After Hong Chengchou finished speaking, Chongzhen glanced at Luo Yangxing and said, "Okay, don't kneel, you can stand up and answer when Lord Hong asks!" ”

"Obey the order!"

Luo Yangxing stood up and thought about it and said: "Back to the emperor, there was a rumor circulating in Shengjing a few days ago, but Weichen couldn't verify the authenticity, so he didn't dare to report to the emperor without authorization. ”

"Okay, what a rumor, you hurry up, don't grind!" Chongzhen was impatient.

"Yes!" Luo Yangxing replied: "Now there are rumors in Shengjing that the thief chief Taiji is already seriously ill, and it is estimated that he will not live long. ”

"What, and this?" Hearing this, several people in the hall were all stunned, and after glancing at each other, Chongzhen shook his head and said, "How is it possible, if Huang Taiji is seriously ill, how can he be in the mood to gather a large army to invade my border pass?" ”

Luo Yang said suddenly: "Weichen also thinks so. But according to the spy report, there are such rumors everywhere in Shengjing now, and it is said that there are noses and eyes, and many people are panicking. The minister is also confused! ”

Hearing this, Chongzhen was also a little confused, and looked at Hong Chengchou, after all, this is also an important minister of the Ming Dynasty, and he is familiar with military affairs, so it is most appropriate to ask him.

Hong Chengchou pondered for a while before he said: "It is estimated that there will be no falsehood about the mobilization of the army by Jiannu, after all, tens of thousands of troops have gathered in Shengjing. You can't hide this kind of thing. If this matter is true, then why did he drag his sick body to force the expedition, and what was the purpose of the expedition? If this is not true, then who released this news and what is their purpose? If you don't figure out these things, the imperial court still can't make a coping strategy! ”

"Alas......"

A long sigh came from the hall, and it took a long time for Chongzhen to ask, "Luo Aiqing, is there anything else to report?" ”

Luo Yangxing hesitated for a while before slowly saying, "There is also news from Shanxi." According to the spies' report, these days, the loyal and brave Marquis Yueyang has sent a large army to garrison the three guards of Xuanfu. ”

"What?"

Only a "bang" sound was heard, and Chongzhen's palm slapped the hard dragon case with a dull sound.

"What the hell does Yue Yang want to do, isn't he supervising Shanbei Road? When did you take care of the three guards of Xuanfu! and what Yang Guozhu eats. How can you hand over your own defense zone to others without authorization! Chongzhen roared angrily, and his whole face twisted.

"The emperor is angry, take care of the dragon body!" Seeing Chongzhen's anger, all the eunuchs and palace maids in the hall knelt down.

"Take care of your fart, people think I'm a monkey. You still told me to take care, did I take care? Chongzhen's roaring voice kept wafting in the Wenhua Palace.

At the end, Chongzhen shouted in a deep voice: "Luo Yang! ”

"The minister is here!"

"You send out the Ti Cavalry right away. Immediately rush to Datong to bring Yang Guozhu back to me, and I will hand him over to Yousansi for conviction! ”

"Your Majesty, you must not!"

As soon as Chongzhen's words came out, Luo Yangxing pouted and knelt down again and begged: "Your Majesty, General Yang is a general of Xuanda, and I am afraid that arresting him rashly will cause a commotion at the border gate!" ”

Luo Yangxing was so frightened that his head was about to stand up, who is Yang Guozhu? He is a general who guards the defense line of the Xuanda border pass, holding heavy troops, Chongzhen wants to rely on a few brocade guards to arrest such a general with tens of thousands of elite soldiers into Beijing, it is simply a joke, if you don't make trouble, you will directly play a mutiny for you, or even directly defect to the Manchu Dynasty, and it will be too late for everyone to cry.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Mr. Yang has been on the border of the country for decades, and he was just commended by the imperial court a few days ago, but now he was suddenly arrested, which will make the world laugh." Hong Chengchou also hurriedly persuaded Chongzhen.

Chongzhen gasped and pointed at Luo Yangxing and shouted: "Then you say, why did Yang Guozhu hand over the defense area of the Xuanfu Sanwei to Yue Yang, what does he want to do?" ”

"This ......"

Luo Yangxing opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment before he smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, according to the news obtained by the ministers, the reason why General Yang handed over the three guards of Xuanfu to the Marquis of Zhongyong is because...... Because of General Yang, they didn't ...... There is no food...... Yang Zongbing, Hu Zongbing, and Wang Zongbing found Zhongyong Hou and wanted to borrow food from Zhongyong Hou, so Zhongyong Hou proposed to exchange Xuanfu Sanwei for it, so Yang Zongbing had to agree to Zhongyong Hou's proposal. ”

"What? Is there such a thing? ”

Hearing this, Chongzhen's mouth opened wide, he couldn't have imagined that the reason why Yang Guozhu would agree to hand over the three Xuanfu to Yue Yang was to borrow food from him.

Seeing Chongzhen's sluggish appearance, Luo Yangxing kowtowed to Chongzhen and sobbed: "Your Majesty, it is not easy for Yang Zongbing, the imperial court has not given them food for three months, and tens of thousands of Xuanda troops are about to run out of food, once the food is exhausted, tens of thousands of troops will inevitably mutiny, and Yang Zongbing They have no way!" ”

When Chongzhen heard this, he only felt that all the strength in his body was drained, and he was stunned for a while, and then he sat on the dragon chair and muttered to himself: "It turned out that it was for this matter, the court quarreled back and forth, and after arguing for several months, he failed to decide the candidate for the general army, but the soldiers at the border gate waited until their stomachs were empty, and the mediocre officials misunderstood the country, and the mediocre officials misunderstood the country!" ”

Speaking of this, Chongzhen asked listlessly: "What about Yueyang, has Yueyang sent troops to the Xuanfu Sanwei now?" ”

"Yes!" Luo Yangxing said respectfully: "Marquis Zhongyong has already sent a large army to enter the three guards of Xuanfu, and he has also moved tens of thousands of displaced people there, it seems that he is ready to collect the displaced people again!" ”

"This Yueyang!"

Hearing this, Chongzhen didn't know what to say. It is said that it is a good thing to collect the displaced people and resettle the people, which is conducive to the stability of the imperial court, look at today's Shanxi, the displaced people are almost extinct, and everyone knows that you can't go on, as long as you run to the north road, if you are willing to work hard, you will definitely have a bite to eat. Look at Shaanxi, which is next to Shanxi, but it is desolate, with thieves everywhere, and the difference is too big in comparison! (To be continued!)
