But in the ceremony of proclaiming the emperor and founding the country, the Korean envoy was disgusted by Huang Taiji. How could this not make Huang Taiji angry? But Huang Taiji also controlled his emotions well, because in the overall strategy of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, North Korea would play a very important role.

After Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne of Khan, his first personal expedition was to conquer Korea. Because for Huang Taiji, the role of North Korea is too important.

The first is strategic. This has already been introduced before, so I will not go into detail here;

The second was to demand that North Korea respect the Manchus politically. If Korea, the original hardcore vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, was transformed into a vassal state of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, then a lot of points would be added to the Manchu Qing in politics;

The third is the economic opening trade. The Manchu Qing wanted to trade with the Ming Dynasty through Korea, and in this trade, Zheng Zhilong, who had no concept of state or nation at all, also joined his maritime fleet. In addition, when the Manchus were short of food, they would also use North Korea as an "ATM" and wantonly squeeze everything in North Korea;

Zuihou is to borrow troops in the military. It's ridiculous that at that time, the Korean soldiers were a piece of garbage on the battlefields in the Far East, but he had a unit that was very valued by the Manchus, and that was the Korean firecrackers.

Moreover, the vision of the Manchu Qing is very accurate, and the North Korean firecrackers will have a very wonderful performance in the future. Therefore, anyone who says that the Manchus did not attach importance to firearms and only paid attention to mounted archery is, but the Manchus did not master the manufacture of firearms.

However, for the demands of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, North Korea has always been in defiance of the yang and the yin. Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty and Korea became brothers ten years ago, Korea has remained disconnected from the Ming Dynasty. In order to win over North Korea, Huang Taiji never tired of telling North Korea in detail every time he had a victory, trying his best to pull North Korea over from the side of the Ming Dynasty, but with little success.

In fact, the reason for this is very simple. It's not at all that North Korea admires Daming or anything. Mainly because, in the minds of the Korean monarchs, they were extremely afraid of the strength of the Ming army.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi's 200,000 Japanese troops almost wanted to destroy Korea, but the Ming army dispatched 40,000 troops and drove these 200,000 Japanese troops out of the sea. Therefore, the heart of betrayal of the Ming Dynasty could not be raised in Korea.

As a result, there was a scene where the Korean envoys did not worship. So Huang Taiji secretly made up his mind and decided to conquer Korea again and completely turn Korea into a Manchu vassal state.

But before that, Huang Taiji was still preparing to carry out a "bloodletting" operation against the Ming Dynasty. Although the Ningjin defense line built by Sun Chengzong back then was incomplete. However, Jinzhou and Shanhaiguan still played a very important role in the defense of the Manchu Qing military campaign. In order to preserve the living Liliang of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji would definitely not attack these two fortified cities that were heavily defended.

So as soon as the founding of the Emperor was over, Huang Taiji called Azig to him and asked him to lead the army in the first entrance battle. The Manchu Qing Dynasty will draw twenty armor soldiers per Niulu. Together with the Eight Banners of Mongolia, the Eight Banners of Han and the Han Army of the King of Sanshun, as well as the soldiers of the Mongolian tribes, there were more than 16,000 people. Prepare to commit another crime in May.

"Why didn't Wu Runing send troops to Jining? Missed the big event in the house. Can Wu Runing afford it? Gu Zhengqing lost his temper at his housekeeper.

It is now April of the ninth year of Chongzhen, and Gu Zhengqing, as the new prefect of Runing, has been in Jining for almost a month.

Speaking of which, Gu Zhengqing is still an old acquaintance of Wu Shigong, he is Wu Shigong's commander of the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division, the Nancheng Inspector Yushi - Gu Yushi.

That Gu Zhengqing is really unlucky, so many years have passed. He was released to become a prefect. But this is also the sorrow of the little people in marginal politics!

Originally, Gu Zhengqing also figured it out, since there was no more rush in the officialdom, then he would go to the place to scavenge a sum, and when Zhishi returned to his hometown, he could still be a rich man. I didn't expect it. He was arranged to the god-damn Runing in Henan. According to the newspaper, it is an area where bandits are rampant and wars are frequent.

So Gu Zhengqing was a little desperate, but he couldn't go to Runing to take office. So after Gu Zhengqing came to Jining by boat with his family, he issued a document asking the Runing garrison to send troops to protect him and rush to Runing.

When the left-behind Ru Ning Tongzhi sent Gu Zhengqing's official document to Wu Shigong, Wu Shigong scoffed at this. Under the control of the Runing Army, it was quite safe along Guide and Runing. If Gu Zhengqing is still not at ease, then he can go with the caravan of the Four Seas Commercial Bank. Who has this kind of spare time to protect Gu Zhengqing?

Besides, the current mentality of Wu Shigong can already be described as arrogant, and Wu Shigong is no longer in the eyes of a prefect.

When Ru Ning Tongzhi tactfully conveyed Wu Shigong's meaning to Gu Zhengqing, Gu Zhengqing was immediately angry. But as soon as he calmed down and pondered it, he recalled the unusualness of Emperor Chongzhen when his majesty resigned.

When they go out of Beijing to take up their posts, they all have to go to the emperor to resign. And this kind of majesty is often a formality, all of which are several officials who go to court at the same time, and then end with a few words of encouragement by the emperor, and even sometimes the emperor does not come forward, and entrusts the cabinet to carry out this form.

But Gu Zhengqing's speech was a little different, he was received by Emperor Chongzhen alone. Although Emperor Chongzhen didn't say much, it mentioned Wu Shigong, the deputy general of Runing.

Gu Zhengqing remembered very well that Emperor Chongzhen said: "That Wu Runing has always been arrogant and unreasonable, and he is the original, and he must be more restrained in the past, and he will have to let him make trouble again." ”

So Gu Zhengqing vaguely understood, it turned out that the imperial court appointed him to Runing Mansion to take charge of the prefect in order to take care of the little eunuch who was originally calling for wind and rain in Nancheng and causing trouble!

Gu Zhengqing's estimate was right, and the appointment of Gu Zhengqing was exactly this intention. Because during this time, Wu Shigong did another big thing that caused a sensation in the government and the opposition. And this matter is related to Wu Shigong's friendship with Haode Hou Sui.

Wen Tiren, the first assistant who felt that he was full-fledged, finally showed the butcher knife to one of the leaders of the Donglin Party, the Hou of the Hubu Shangshu. In March, Hou was imprisoned on charges of embezzlement.

But to be honest, Hou Sui's corruption is conclusive, and among the general crows of officials in the late Ming Dynasty, Hou Sui is still one of the outstanding. Therefore, Wen Tiren did not wronged Hou Sui.

Moreover, under the monstrous power of Wen Tiren, there is no official in the world who dares to speak out for Hou Xun. At this time, no one expected that when the news reached Runing Mansion, a military attache in Runing opened fire on Wen Tiren. (To be continued......)
