Chapter 0962: Northern Barrier

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen smiled and raised his hand, "All are flat, after this war, as long as there are no more major disasters in the whole country and the economy is further improved, the anti-people will no longer have a foothold, and wherever they go, they will be driven by the government soldiers from all over the country. ”

Hong Chengchou's heart was warm, from Yang He's hands, to Chen Qiyu's hands, and then to Lu Xiangsheng's hands, although the boss is younger than the other, but from the emperor's attitude towards Chen Qiyu, he is still grateful for the emperor's change, and his heart has also rekindled the hope of glorifying his ancestors, he is a person who wants to be famous, the size of power, he doesn't value it very much, and he suddenly rose to the position of military head second only to the emperor, for Hong Chengchou, he is already very satisfied, assist Lu Xiangsheng to assist Lu Xiangsheng, the level is higher than him. "The emperor has won the award, but the minister can't bear it."

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen nodded, "Sun Chuanting, Cao Wenzhao, when you arrive in Luoyang, you will finish your rest and recuperate, and transport half of the assets of Luoyang Fuwang's Mansion to Beijing, and half of them will be reserved for Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou to suppress bandits. Remember, you also need to give relief to the victims, and you must be clear about every account, and I don't want all the officers and soldiers in the world to say that the Imperial Guards are not taking the lead. ”

The four of them hurriedly knelt down, very satisfied with the emperor's disposition, and Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen smiled and praised everyone a few words before leaving.

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen's heart is actually hidden a huge depression, although Luoyang has a lot of silver, but once the money is used to help the victims, it is a drop in the bucket, he sent it to Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou so brightly. It is to let them understand the difficulties of the imperial court. Local relief for the victims is definitely not as reasonable as military relief. Wherever the army goes, there is the area where relief is most needed! From this carriage gorge, he has seen it very clearly.

And the more important thing that Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen did not tell the people below is that the army of Huang Taiji who broke into the Gyeonggi area has already reached Lingqiu, which is less than 400 miles away from Beijing!

At such a moment, he can still smile, and Emperor Zhu Youzhen of Chongzhen has really reached the level of a political family. It's just that what level of government can be reached to save this crisis that still has not seen the light of day?

Huang Taiji pursued Lin Dan Khan all the way, a total of 40,000 people, led by Huang Taiji himself, all the way to the Gyeonggi region, mainly looting and burning, led by Abatai! Huang Taiji's deployment made Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen a headache, and at the same time, he was further aware. Compared with Huang Taiji, his ability is still too insufficient. From Huang Taiji's confidence to Huang Taiji's every step of deployment, it seems that he can only follow behind others.

Aixin Jueluo Abatai is the seventh son of Nurhachi, and his mother is the concubine Ilgen Jueluo, who belongs to the Manchurian Zhenglan Banner.

Abatai's mother, Ilgen Jue Luo, married Nurhachi in the 14th year of Wanli (1586) and was his seventh wife. Ilgen Jue Luo came from an ordinary background, and was not favored by Nurhachi during his lifetime, nor did he receive any mourning after his death. She didn't even leave the date of her birth and death, and there is not even a single word in the history books of the Qing Dynasty. Abatai's mother's low status directly affected his future ranking among his brothers. However, because of his age advantage, Abatai participated in the war earlier than his younger brothers and made achievements earlier, so Nurhachi still valued him more seriously.

In the thirty-ninth year of Wanli (1611), Abatai, who was only 23 years old, led an expedition for the first time on the orders of his father. At that time, the chiefs of the Ningguta region in the north (in the area of present-day Ning'an County, Heilongjiang Province) went to the city of Hetuala, where Nurhachi lived, to pay tribute, and Nurhachi gave them 40 pairs of armor. The journey from Hetuara to Ningguta was long, and the monks and Nikali traveled with their armor to Suifenlu (now Suifen River valley in Heilongjiang), where they were robbed by the tribes of Urguchen (in the area of the Bijin River in present-day Russia) and Muling (in the Muling River valley in present-day Heilongjiang Province). Nurhachi sent people to pursue it several times, but it was unsuccessful, so he sent Abatai and the generals Fei Yingdong and An Feiyangu to lead a thousand troops to capture Urguchen and Muling. This was the first expedition in which Abatai participated. This expedition was undoubtedly a rare experience for the young Abatai. Since then, he has begun his career as a horse for more than 30 years.

In the third year of the Mandate of Heaven (1618), Nurhachi swore to conquer the Ming Dynasty with the "Seven Hatreds", and Abatai accompanied the expedition. When conquering Fushun City, he surrendered Li Yongfang, a guerrilla general of the Ming Dynasty. Although Li Yongfang's official position was low, he was the first Ming general to publicly surrender to Houjin. Nurhachi tried his best to win over him, conferred on him the rank of lieutenant general, ruled over the Fushun people, and married Abatai's daughter to him. Since then, Li Yongfang has been called "Fuxi (i.e., Fushun) Forehead" internally and externally, and has done his best to serve Houjin with loyalty. Li Yongfang's 9 sons later became high-ranking officials in the Qing Dynasty.

In the seventh year of Tiancong (1633), Abatai was ordered to build Lanpan City, and Huang Taiji gave him a royal python robe, eight sets of sable skins, and a horse. In June, Huang Taiji asked the ministers which of the three places to hit first: Ming Dynasty, Korea, and Chahar. Abatai asked to defeat the Ming Dynasty first. In August, Abatai led his army to attack Shanhaiguan. Huang Taiji greeted and comforted them, but rebuked him for refusing to advance further.

In the eighth year of Tiancong (1634), he followed the army of Huang Taiji to conquer Xuanfu and arrived in Yingzhou, where Abatai conquered Lingqiu and Wangjiazhuang.

On the way back to Beijing, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen looked at the tragic scene in the north of Shanxi after being burned and looted by the Jiannu army from the plane, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red again.

Yang Qicong saw that the emperor's feelings were low, and he couldn't speak, of course, there was no way to enlighten the emperor, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen's uncle Lao Fu Wang Zhu Changxun and cousin Zhu Yousong also obediently closed their mouths, neither of them knew that the emperor would take them to Beijing, whether they would be put in prison, or house arrest in some unsightly place?

"Are you going to Beijing or Tianjin?" Old Fu King Zhu Changxun still couldn't help but ask.

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen retracted his gaze looking out of the window, and glanced at his uncle who weighed three or four hundred catties, "I will give you a set of houses, you will live in Tianjin, you can go out if you want to, although you have won the prince, you can eat the minister's money, but you are not allowed to go out of Tianjin, and the offender will be beheaded." ”

King Lao Fu nodded, he was a lot relieved, "Your Majesty, do you want someone to take over all the ministers' families?" Also, you treat your own uncle like this, then, what about those princes? You can't just take your uncle alone, can you? ”

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen sighed, this person is still thinking about how to enjoy it, and the pain in his heart is in danger of breaking out at any time! Forced to hold back, "You are very poor, just to take the king, the rest of the clan, all as before, in the future, the Ming princes, dukes, marquises, earls, as usual, retained, but are not allowed to pass on to the next generation, after the death of this generation, the Ming Dynasty only has the royal lineage, only allowed to retain the two titles of prince and duke, the same is not passed on to the next generation, so to say, can you understand?" ”

Lao Fu Wang nodded, and sighed deeply, "Anyway, it's all the fish on your chopping board, you can get it as much as you like, but if you do this, will the royal family be too thin?" There are no princes in various places guarding this country, can it be done? ”

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen didn't bother to pay attention to him, and went back, closing his eyes and recuperating.

The battle of Lingqiu did not last long, as soon as the emperor returned to Beijing, it was over, He Kegang took more than 10,000 royal forest troops, firecrackers, trenches, for the battle in the Guannei, especially the operation near the Gyeonggi area, the Ming Dynasty is not at a disadvantage now, plus with the support of the people, the Ming army quickly drove Jiannu out of the Guanwai, so that Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen was worried about Lin Dan Khan's Chahar Department, if the Chahar Department was all annexed by Jiannu, then Mongolia would not exist! To the north of the Ming Dynasty, there will be no barrier. (To be continued......)
