Apocalypse heard the good news from Zhang Gui and Han Yi almost at the same time.

But he couldn't believe it was true.

Xichang actually captured Nurhachi and Li Yongfang.

The key is that it is incredible enough to capture Li Yongfang, and he actually captured Nurhachi.

"Is this true?"

Apocalypse asked.

Zhang Gui replied: "Your Majesty, how dare the ministers bully the king. ”

Tianqi personally snatched the urgent delivery in Han Yi's hand and looked at it.

And Wei Zhongxian was a little disappointed on the side, he didn't expect that the West Factory would still press his East Factory.

Obviously, I have worked hard in the East Factory!

"Good! Good! Very good! ”

The Apocalypse has already praised it repeatedly, and said: "I want to worship this matter to the Taimiao and tell the ancestors and ancestors!" ”

Next, in the days when he was waiting for Nurhachi and Li Yongfang to be escorted, Tianqi was excited that he never slept well every day, and he wanted to hurry up and see Nurhachi and Li Yongfang who were captured alive by the Xichang hoe team.

"Your Xichang has made a great contribution again this time, and when I really see Nurhachi and Li Yongfang, and offer their heads to the Taimiao, I will reward you heavily, and I will directly seal your Taishi at that time!"

On the day of the apocalypse, he was talking to Zhang Gui, and promised to crown Zhang Gui as a master because of Nurhachi's capture by Xichang.

In Daming, Taishi is a very noble official rank, and it is not easy to be sealed, and few people in the entire Ming Dynasty have it.

It's even harder to get during your lifetime.

But Tianqi felt that it was worth it to capture Nurhachi and Li Yongfang and crown Zhang Gui Taishi.

It's just that Tianqi still can't believe that Nurhachi, who has caused a lot of trouble to the Ming Dynasty since Wanli, has really been captured, and he has to wait until he sees Nurhachi to be a real person before he can add Zhang Gui.

Zhang Gui just smiled at this.

Because it is the Apocalypse Dynasty right now, no one knows if the Ming Dynasty will fall in the next Jiashen year, and then go to extinction?

Therefore, Zhang Gui is not very interested in any sealing.

He only thinks about one thing now.

That is, after Nurhachi and Li Yongfang are captured alive, how much change will be caused to Houjin and the entire history.

Zhang Gui himself actually didn't expect that his hoe team would capture Nurhachi alive.

The task he gave to the hoe team was only to target Li Yongfang and teach a lesson to Li Yongfang, a big traitor who was engaged in counter-plotting in Houjin.

And now that even Nurhachi has been captured alive, it undoubtedly means that the Emperor Taiji of Houjin will become the Great Khan of Houjin in advance, and will start his own road to centralization of power in advance.

As far as Zhang Gui knew, Huang Taiji was more politically wise than Nurhachi.

Historically, after Huang Taiji ascended the throne, he further strengthened the strength of the Later Jin regime, began to change the name of the country to Qing, and compiled the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty and the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

In this way, a Manchurian military aristocracy was further transformed into a power in which the Manchu, Mongolian, and Han aristocratic bureaucrats colluded to seize the world.

"The Great Age of Genes"

And this regime undoubtedly has the possibility of seizing the Han family in the future.

This makes Zhang Gui have to admit that the current education of the Han people to strengthen their national consciousness will become more urgent.

Because it is necessary to prevent the big landlords and big bureaucrats among the Han people from easily colluding with foreign races in order to continue to enslave the Han people in the world.

It is undoubtedly not enough to rely on the Confucian idea of loyalty to the monarch.

Although many bureaucrats and doctors talk about loyalty to the monarch, in fact, most of them also choose a loyal monarch in their hearts to see which monarch is more in line with their interests and needs.

Moreover, strengthening the excavation of national consciousness can also make the people more resistant.

The common people are undoubtedly even more ignorant of the king, but they still have interests in the fact that their Han people cannot be enslaved by foreign captives and traitors.

And now, Zhang Gui knows that what he needs to do is to further stimulate the national consciousness of the people.

"Emperor, Xu Du, they have taken the slave chiefs Nurhachi and Li Yongfang to Jingshi."

At this time, Wei Zhongxian came to report to the apocalypse.

"It's finally here!"

Tianqi was very excited after hearing this, and took Zhang Gui and others to the edict in person next.

Nurhachi and Li Yongfang were both imprisoned after being escorted to Beijing.

It didn't take long for the Apocalypse to see Nurhachi and ask, "Nurhachi, have you ever thought about today?" ”

Nurhachi ignored the apocalypse and just coughed while clutching his chest.

However, Tianqi was not angry at this time, and only said: "Although you are the person who wants to cut a thousand knives in my dreams, I also have to admit that you are also a person, and you have made this dynasty suffer such a big loss, and many big cities in Liao have been taken by you, if it weren't for my brother-in-law and the people under him, I really don't know when I will be able to punish you properly." ”

"Ahem!"

After Nurhachi heard what the apocalypse said, he said helplessly: "It's this Uncle Zhang Guo again!" Can I meet him? ”

Apocalypse said: "He is here. ”

Nurhachi looked back.

Tianqi also pointed at Zhang Gui: "He is." ”

"What a handsome boy! The queen must not be bad. ”

Nurhachi replied.

Apocalypse said angrily: "This is not what you should think! ”

Nurhachi sneered, then looked at Zhang Gui and said: "Uncle Zhang, you are different from them, you have been staring at my Dajin for a long time, and you have already arranged these tricks, unlike most powerful bureaucrats in the Ming Kingdom, who only want to earn benefits from my Dajin." What I didn't expect was that you could actually do it. I want to ask what kind of gas it is, and why it makes me so depressed! But why do your people make me feel better when they breathe in me? ”

Tianqi gave Zhang Gui a look: "Answer him." ”

Zhang Guidao: "Our Xishan Industrial Division calls it chlorine, which is developed by our people after His Majesty ordered the silver to set up an industrial department in Xishan to develop industrial products, and you can be the first to experience it, and it is also your honor." ”

"Industrial products, I didn't expect that I, Nurhachi, would lose on this."

Nurhachi sighed when he heard this.

Then, Nurhachi said to the apocalypse: "Emperor Ming, Ben Khan also underestimated you, but don't be too happy, your courtiers will not willingly give in to you, only I, Dajin, can take them to share the benefits of your Zhu family!" Unless, you don't support the people of your Zhu family. ”

Apocalypse sank his face.

But what Nurhachi said was true.

The cost of supporting the clan already accounted for more than half of the Ming Dynasty's fiscal revenue in the Jiajing Dynasty, and now it is naturally more serious.

In addition, in addition to Jiangnan, most of the fields in other rich provinces are also occupied by the clan, and if the Apocalypse wants to enrich the country and benefit the people, the real big problem is actually the reform of the clan.

"Don't worry about it, compared to the death of the country, what are these things, I have already taken on the name of a tyrant, are you still worried about taking on more burdens?"

Apocalypse said coldly.

Zhang Gui glanced at Tianqi, he had to admit that this may be the difference between Tianqi and his younger brother, and he didn't know why, his younger brother didn't dare to do anything to the clan when he hanged himself in the coal mountain, and he didn't end up with the infamy of a mean clan, Tianqi didn't care about all the infamy for a long time, and he didn't even care about his own life, he seemed to only care about whether his country could continue.

"Good!"

Nurhachi suddenly shouted and said, "Ben Khan suddenly hopes that you can succeed and let a dynasty of more than two hundred and fifty years continue to flourish!" ”

Tianqi didn't say much, only looked at Li Yongfang: "Li Yongfang, don't you have anything to say to me?" ”

Li Yongfang suddenly turned around and knelt down to Tianqi, and cried with a pout: "Your Majesty, the criminal minister Li Yongfang begs you something!" ”

"Say!"
