Chapter 468: Xinwang Zhu Youzhen's coup d'état

Wang Hongyu led his army to Quang Ninh and prepared to defeat Huang Taiji.

In three years, even if Houjin gets a blood transfusion from Richelieu, he is not an opponent of the rising Ming.

Now that Southeast Asia has been stabilized and the Wa Kingdom has entered the stage of recovery and construction, Date Masamune has not yet fully absorbed the remnants of the Tokugawa family, and is temporarily unable to start a war on Wajima to attract the attention of Gojin.

The time is ripe to eliminate Jiannu, now Wang Hongyu is strong and strong, the domestic economy is rising year by year, although it is still a small cold season, there is no shortage of food in the north, and the stored grain is enough for the consumption of the Ming Dynasty for two years.

Wang Hongyu had already gathered a large number of supplies in Liaodong and selected soldiers and horses to conquer Houjin.

It is planned to use the 15,000 Hunhe Army as the main force, supplemented by 10,000 non-productive soldiers who will build military cantonments, and 20,000 engineering and logistics troops.

At present, Zhao led the teaching, Mangui Guanning Iron Cavalry 8,000, Zu Dashou's Liaodong garrison army of 40,000, and 30,000 people from the three sides and Jingying to help.

The second brother Zhang Shenwu has 9,000 soldiers and horses, and Mao Wenlong has 20,000 soldiers and horses, and they will listen to orders to cooperate with the battle.

In addition, Lin Dan Khan of Chahar Mongolia will cooperate with the attack on Kormi Mongolia.

Sun Chengzong sat in Ningyuan, Xu Guangqi was in Tianjin, and Yuan Keli was in Jiaodong to dispatch warships and sea supplies.

Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Yuanhua and others all commanded and cooperated with the staff officers.

The Ming army had already assembled in place in the spring, and used sea transportation and materials from Liaodong Tuntian to support the army for half a year.

Now specifically the offensive is chosen at the end of summer.

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.

......

In the capital, they are also paying attention to the upcoming war.

Including the crown prince Zhu Cijiong, who is now almost 7 years old.

In fact, this prince Zhu Cijiong is not lucky, he is a concubine, not born to Queen Zhang.

Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse liked him very much.

The crown prince has been gifted and extraordinary since he was a child. Not only inherited Zhu Youxiao's talent in mechanical manufacturing and architecture, but also his superhuman talent in mathematics and physics has appeared.

It seems that the crown prince Zhu Cijiong is better than his father Zhu Youxiao, at least higher than Zhu Youxiao, how can Zhu Youxiao have his current learning conditions when he was seven years old?

Both father and son were fond of mathematics and mechanics, and the prince took the lead in setting off an atmosphere of learning mathematics and physics. Prince Zhu Cijiong's special talent for science made Zhu Youxiao pay more attention to science.

If nothing else, Daming's science and technology and machinery manufacturing will soon surpass the entire West, which is definitely a good thing for Huaxia.

A school reform and imperial examination reform are now on the agenda. This is exactly the new culture, new technology and new thinking advocated by Wang Hongyu. However, the method adopted by Wang Hongyu is gradual, not Zhu Youxiao's stormy change.

Zhu Youxiao not only attaches importance to science, but also grasps imperial power. He wants to learn from Taizu and Gaozu and take back the power that the royal family has lost.

His improvement of the status of the martial arts was only the beginning, and this reform of the imperial examination system was the root of the civil officials and scholars, and once the old imperial examination system was abolished, the literati and doctors would not even have a chance to turn over.

If this continues, those scholars, heroes, and landlords who are dressed in the cloak of Zhu Cheng's Confucianism can no longer monopolize Chinese politics, economy, and culture, and those who are full of "Four Books", "Five Classics" and Baguwen are completely useless.

There was an uproar in the capital, and the reform of the school and the imperial examination for the Emperor of the Apocalypse had aroused strong opposition in the cabinet, the six ministries, the six departments, the Imperial Procuratorate, the Imperial History, and the Taixue, and even adopted the practice of boycotting the dynasty.

Wang Hongyu, who was far away in western Liaoning, was planning to eliminate Jiannu under the leadership of Huang Taiji, and the dispatch of troops was underway, and he soon had the conditions for war, and he knew very little about the ideological collision that took place in Beijing.

Zhu Youzhen, who had been waiting for ten years, saw that the opportunity to overthrow the Emperor of the Apocalypse had come,

He secretly ordered the people of the Donglin Party to take action, and openly instigated among the cabinet, the six ministries, the six departments, the Hanlin Academy, the Duchayuan, the Imperial History, the Taixue, as well as the literati, scholars, Haoqiang, and landlords, calling on them to overthrow the dark rule of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

"One

A swarm of insects~"

Zhu Youxiao had already been reminded by Wang Hongyu to take special precautions, and had already sent people to keep an eye on a group of conservative civil officials in the capital, and immediately locked that it was the Donglin Party that took the lead in incitement.

"Catch!"

He ordered Tian Ergeng, who was of the Jinyi Guard, to arrest people directly, but encountered a large number of soldiers throwing stones to stop him.

The Donglin Party's preparation for many years is also rich and there are people, just like in the history of Jinyiwei to Suzhou to arrest the Donglin Party and was beaten out by the scholars, now there is a fist and foot fight directly on the streets of the capital.

Jinyiwei has a knife, so of course he is in a hurry.

However, the Imperial History of the Patrol City, who also had some troops in the capital, directly reversed, and took the soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to resist the Jinyi Guard with the soldiers.

Some of the deceived scholars were also honored to resist the royal minions of Jinyiwei, and they were violent.

Yuan Chonghuan, the imperial historian of the Donglin Party, and Ye Xianggao, who retired home but ran to the Xinwang Mansion, also brought some civil officials to join the war and create chaos in the capital.

Apocalypse is furious, and of course troops will be sent at this time.

Immediately sent Zhang Weixian to lead the Imperial Horse Supervisor and the Jingying Rebellion, and went to the east and west of the city respectively to control the situation.

He is very decisive, but he has always been very sincere in family affection.

After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't expect that my younger brother Xinwang Zhu Youzhen sneaked back to the capital under the cover of civil officials, or the whole coup d'état.

When it comes to the throne, you have to be ruthless.

Everything went well to the Imperial Horse Prison to the east of the city, but an accident happened to the Kyoying camp to the west of the city.

Zhu Youzhen instructed the civil officials of the Ministry of Industry to detonate Wang Gong's factory:

The huge explosion of more than 1 million catties of gunpowder, the huge sound spread for hundreds of miles, the sky was as dark as night, the house was turbulent, and the Ganoderma lucidum-shaped smoke cloud was suspected of having a strong earthquake and tornado.

The loyal soldiers and horses of the Beijing battalion who suppressed the rebellion directly suffered heavy casualties.

Yuan Chonghuan and others seized the opportunity to spread rumors: They said that this was a bizarre phenomenon that could only be caused by strong earthquakes, tornadoes, meteorites, and even supernatural forces, and that the explosion of a powder magazine alone was not enough.

In addition, after the incident, the injured and corpses near the explosion area were swept away and their clothes were swept away, resulting in a strange situation of being naked and ***. It also casts a layer of mystery over this catastrophe.

In fact, it was a big explosion that squeezed the surrounding air into the surroundings, forming a vacuum within the explosion area, and people and animals suffocated due to lack of oxygen. After the explosion, the air returned to form the Longquan wind, which could naturally peel off the clothes and sweep them away.

They said that it was the perverse behavior of the Emperor of the Apocalypse that angered God, and that it was a disaster sent from heaven to punish the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and that the innocent people were implicated by the Apocalypse, and strongly called on the Emperor of the Apocalypse to abdicate.

Gao Qiqian led a group of Nanhai Zijing troops to enter the city from the southwest of the capital.

Yuan Chonghuan, Ye Xianggao, and Zhu Chunchen also led some soldiers and horses in Jizhen to rebel, and they had already gone to Jizhen to prepare for rebellion.

Taking advantage of the absence of the main force of the Imperial Horse Supervisor and the Jinyi Guard,

The eunuch Cao Huachun took a group of rangers, and under the response of the bought eunuchs, he directly entered the palace and set fire to the three major halls.

and went directly to the Qianqing Palace.
