Chapter 102: Driving the Wolf and Devouring the Tiger
Zhou Xian then made the second appointment.
That is to send Han Shu to Jinling City to preside over major events.
This is a set of policies that Zhou Xian has formulated long ago.
The combination punch of suppressing Donglin's nest with the southern masters.
The effect of the fight is to catch those who try to fan the flames and cause chaos in the court by surprise and have nothing to do.
Want to rebel?
Yes, then they have to unite to overthrow one of the most high-ranking leaders in the Donglin Party, Han Shu.
Is this possible?
No way!
Since Qian Qianyi cooled down, the influence of the Donglin Party has not been as great as before.
Otherwise, he would not have jumped out to be generous and indignant in such a sensitive period.
The most critical point is that Zhou Xian took this opportunity to let Han Shu clean up the holy land of Confucian culture and separate the ideology of the Donglin Party from Confucian culture.
In this way, the spread of public opinion among the people has been completely suppressed.
In the final analysis, Zhou Xian is not trying to suppress the people's right to speak.
But the current reality of the Ming Dynasty is that the Donglin Party is fooling and deceiving the uneducated people.
Thus using the common people against the imperial court.
The Ming Dynasty itself was on the verge of extinction.
Even if Zhou Xian was in charge of the country, the entire dynasty was wandering in the air with one foot in the cliff.
The people have long been torn apart by the class that corrupt officials encroach on and persecute.
At this time, the people were allowed to listen to the disgusting remarks of the Donglin Party.
It is very likely that there will be a second Li Zicheng, or even a third and a fourth in the territory of the Ming Dynasty......
So it must be suppressed.
Until the imperial court centralized power and completely eliminated the Donglin Party.
Once again, private discussion is allowed.
But it's a process.
According to Zhou Xian's judgment, he will not relax that decree within five years.
"Hou Lianhui."
"The minions are here."
"Over there in the Guanyu Hall, how long have you not been there?"
"If you go back to Your Highness, Governor Cao is in charge of the Guanyu Hall, and the minions have been following His Highness recently, and they have never been there."
"Check it out."
"Yes."
Seeing Hou Lianhui bow away, Zhou Xian's eyebrows became more and more frowned.
According to the normal time calculation, the day before yesterday was the day when Cao Zhengchun came to settle the silver taels for himself.
Guanyutang only has the headquarters of Beijing City, and the profit can reach 10,000 taels of silver a day.
A month ago, Cao Zhengchun had already arranged for people to open official entertainment halls in six cities in the Ming Dynasty.
Conservatively calculated, there are more than one million taels of silver a month.
Even if he gave his father-in-law Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen to take thirty percent, he would have seven or eight hundred thousand taels of silver in his account.
It has been a few days since the settlement time.
Cao Zhengchun didn't even have a figure.
This thing.
Zhou Xian vaguely felt that this matter was not just about those silver taels.
Could it be that the old man of Taishan Xingyuan is planning to return to the palace??
This Nima ......
Zhou Xian was a little frightened.
If Chongzhen returns to the palace, what should he do?
With Emperor Chongzhen's urine, he can cut his own daughter, and there seems to be no problem with cutting a horse.
What to do?
Although it was just Zhou Xian's speculation, it was really torturous.
What to do?
Wait online, it's in a hurry!
At the same time, inside the city of Shenyang.
While enjoying the roasted whole sheep, Huang Taiji discussed with his adviser Luo Yuyang whether to let Ge Yan out and fight the autumn breeze.
It is to attack the people of the Ming Dynasty around Liaoyang City.
However, Huang Taiji was only limited to letting Ge Yan fight the autumn wind, and he would never allow a large-scale military conflict to break out.
If a small force of more than 100 people fought around Liaoyang City, he concluded that it was impossible for the Ming army in Liaoyang City to go out of the city in a big way. But Huang Taiji has not discussed it clearly with Luo Yuyang.
A herald burst in.
Then the military information he transmitted directly made Huang Taiji jump up from the seat.
Everything was beyond his expectations.
Everything came so suddenly, so exciting!
In the past three days, although Ge Yan got rid of Lu Delin's pursuit.
But he didn't dare to return to Shenyang City as soon as possible.
Instead, they are out there collecting the troops that are intended.
After all, Huang Taiji gave him an army of 50,000.
If he came back with a dozen people, Xiang Shang's head would definitely be lost.
As long as he gathers the remaining 20,000 people and comes back.
Then the situation will not lose its head.
But he dragged on outside for three days.
It was in these three days that Huang Taiji had some sweet dreams.
Now Ge Yan is ready to come back, and he sent a herald to report in advance.
Huang Taiji stood in the hall like a madman, his eyes full of blood.
After a long time, a thunderous roar came from the hall.
"That dog and horse of the Ming Dynasty, this Khan will not destroy you, and he vainly claims to love Xinjueluo!"
The army on Ge Yan's side is the elite of the 100,000 army of Jiannu.
More than 30,000 people were killed in just one night, and they were all core backbone combat members of the Eight Banners Army.
Huang Taiji felt that the confidence of the whole person was drained all of a sudden.
His expression turned pale, and he said in a trembling tone, "Where is Ge Yan?" ”
"Great Han, General Ge Yan is rectifying the remnants, and if nothing happens, he can return to the city today."
"Accidents, what other accidents did he come up with? Go, grab that bastard of Ge Yan for Ben Da Khan! ”
Huang Taiji's voice was like a thunderstorm, and Luo Yuyang and the others were trembling and silent beside them.
Only his backbone general, Shu Mulu, said angrily: "Great Khan, this matter is only because those Ming dogs are too insidious, please order the Great Khan to lead the troops and horses of his headquarters to slaughter the Ming army in Liaoyang!" ”
"Enough!"
Huang Taiji scolded in a deep voice: "Didn't you hear? Ge Yan has lost 30,000 elites, and our army's Liaoyang front line is already in decline, don't you think the disadvantage is not big enough? If the order goes down, whoever dares to disobey Ben Khan's orders and rashly engage the Ming army will be killed alive by Ben Khan! "Huh!"
The general bowed down in horror.
However, Luo Yuyang next to him felt that the Khan of Jiannu today was too high-minded.
If you replace the Huang Taiji at this moment with Nurhachi, the first Great Khan of Jiannu.
He will definitely be like Ning Yuan's bloody battle back then, he suffered a clear loss on the Ming army, and he will slaughter the Ming Dynasty people around Liaoyang City by any means.
But now, Huang Taiji won't do that.
Because such indiscriminate slaughter will only provoke the rebellion of the Ming Dynasty.
Thus deviating from the strategy of Meijiming designated by Huang Taiji.
In Huang Taiji's strategic conception, he said that he was aimed at the court of the Ming Dynasty, not the people of the Ming Dynasty.
And this strategy continued until Shunzhi entered the customs.
He then ruled the Han Chinese of the Ming Dynasty as a Manchu.
Cut all those hard bones of the Ming Dynasty.
The remaining soft bones are corroded and differentiated with official positions and money, and then a group is co-opted and reused.
That's why there was a short highlight moment of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Therefore, in the current situation of knowing defeat, Huang Taiji can refuse the general's suggestion of revenge.
Suffice it to say how tenacious his endurance was.
