Of course, Sun Chengzong had no objection to making peace with Lin Dan Khan.

Although Lin Dan Khan's overall strength is not as good as that of the Ming Dynasty, it is no longer possible for the current Ming Dynasty to fight on two fronts.

Chongzhen and Sun Chengzong drafted a plan together, and after they were ready, they consulted Bi Ziyan and handed it over to Liu Xingzuo.

This matter has been settled, and Sun Chengzong reported again, "Your Majesty, Chen Qiyu, the governor of the three sides, recently received good news, and Cao Wenzhao, the former Liao Town counselor under him, has been chased and killed for thousands of miles, and has already killed the second king of Baishui. ”

Oh? Chongzhen came to the spirit.

Baishui Wang Er was the first leader in northern Shaanxi to raise the banner of rebellion, and raised troops in the seventh year of the Apocalypse.

At that time, there was not only drought and famine in Shaanxi, but also because of the urgency of the Liao affairs, the imperial court also levy new salaries.

As a result, Shaanxi officials went up to Qiao Yingjia, the governor, and Zhang Douyao, the magistrate of Chengcheng, not only did not care about the lives of the local people to provide disaster relief, but also urged them to pay taxes.

In fact, in the Ming Dynasty system, if there is a famine in the jurisdiction, you can apply to the imperial court for "exemption". This has been established in the Yongle period.

In the early years of Emperor Yongle's accession to the throne, there was a three-year flood in Jiangnan, and in the third year of Yongle, he ordered the household department to verify the flood situation in the six provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, and exempted him from taxes that year, and the loss was equivalent to one-tenth of the annual fiscal revenue of the Ming Dynasty at that time.

As a result, this did not lead to the collapse of Yongle's finances, and Yongle's coffers remained full during his major expeditions to Mongolia.

Therefore, the so-called application of tax exemption for the local area by later Internet historians of the Jiangnan gentry, which led to the transfer of taxes to remote areas such as the northwest, is actually completely untenable, or it is a distortion of these historical facts.

The Ming Dynasty had a strict financial and evaluation system, and there was a fixed number of how much money was handed over by which prefecture and which county.

But it is not clear why Shaanxi officials have been reluctant to actively apply for exemption and give the local people a way out.

In short, Wang Er is a Chen Sheng-style character. After Wang Er's uprising, Wang Jiayin, who was born in the border army, also raised troops in Fugu, but the result was huge, attracting Wang Erdu to defect.

Wang Jiayin's subordinates, including Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng and other anti-kings who were named in the future, he and these people are just like Wang Zijian, Li Dan, and Jianguo.

If Wang Jiayin had not led them from northern Shaanxi to Shanxi, they would not have achieved anything in the future.

"What about Wang Jiayin?"

"Yang Qiyu has formed a net on all sides, trapping Wang Jiayin's troops in the ravine at the junction of Jin and Shaanxi."

Good! Chongzhen nodded heavily.

Yang Qiyu really lived up to his expectations and quickly stabilized the chaos in northern Shaanxi.

When the northwest frees up his hands, Chongzhen will have more strength to enrich the Xuanda-Yingchang line.

The reason why Chongzhen sent Mangui to Yingchang was not only to detect the situation of the grassland, but also to gradually encroach and prepare for the attack on the plains and the cutting off of the connection between Jianzhou and the grassland.

Only in this way can the Ming Dynasty talk about the economic blockade of the state.

Only the extremely expensive defense line of western Liaoning can play a real role.

As for the land and sea joint battle proposed by Xiong Tingbi and Yuan Chonghuan to attack southern Liaoning, Chongzhen was not very optimistic.

Today, unlike in the past, after Mao Wenlong's long-term harassment, Jianzhou has actually given up a large amount of cultivated land in southern Liaoning, and adopted the strategy of "Han people cultivating inside and Yiding outside the country".

At present, most of the coastal areas in southern Liaoning are dock forts set up by Jianzhou, and they are horns with each other, so it is difficult to completely sweep them away.

The naval division of the Ming Dynasty was indeed stronger than Jianzhou, but the infantry of the Ming Dynasty experienced the turbulence of the sea, and could they still defeat Jianzhou after landing operations?

This is a Ming Army that relies on defending the city in foot combat, not a Navy SEAL.

Mao Wenlong has fought for so many years, except for a few castles that Liu Xingzuo gave up, and he also laid Fushun.

In short, Chongzhen's arrangement for the naval offensive is mainly harassment and destruction, and the main energy is still placed on the east and west lines where Man Gui and Yuan Chonghuan are seated respectively.

In order to motivate Chen Qiyu and others to work hard and support Mangui as soon as possible, Chongzhen first wrote an edict praising the trilateral governor.

At the same time, he also ordered the Ministry of War to prepare documents and promote Cao Wenzhao to deputy commander-in-chief.

Chongzhen's heart suddenly moved, remembering that Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting and others all rose in northern Shaanxi.

Seeing that all kinds of thieves will be eliminated, they may also have less chance to get ahead.

However, Chongzhen smiled slightly, but let go of this thought.

Anyway, he now directly controls the personnel selection and employment agencies of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War, and directly transfers them to the front line of the two fronts.

It's a mule or a horse, and you can know it when you walk it.

At this time, Hong Chengchou, who was concerned by Chongzhen, was visiting Chen Qiyu, the governor of the three sides.

Hong Chengchou was born in Fujian, Chen Qiyu took a look, and saw that this person had a dark face and thick masseter muscles, and he really looked like a Hokkien person.

"Yan Yan (Hong Chengchou), you did a good job. I didn't give you many soldiers and horses, and you defeated the 'King Tota', what a rare general!" ”

"History records Han Xin's drive people to fight with the city, and win all battles, originally I didn't believe it. Now that I see you, I believe it a little. ”

Hong Chengchou saluted, "The Governor's false praise is all insignificant achievements. ”

"This is also because the garrison He Renlong is effective in fighting, and he must be the first in every battle, so it can inspire morale and win in one fell swoop."

Chen Qiyu nodded, "It's good that you can share the credit for your subordinates instead of taking credit." “

"Where is 'King Tota' now? I have besieged all his township party here, and I am preparing to make him a lobbyist, so that these thieves can accept the recruitment as soon as possible and return to their hometown to work as a farmer as soon as possible. ”

Hong Chengchou bowed and said, "King Tota has been ambushed. ”

Chen Qiyu's body stiffened. "And did any of his men have anyone else captured by you? It can also be used by the Governor. ”

Hong Chengchou said, "Lord Governor, I have killed all the hundreds of thieves under the command of King Tota. ”

Chen Qiyu exclaimed, "Didn't you write before, didn't you say that King Tota had been attacking Hancheng for a long time and had lost his sharpness, so you took the opportunity to persuade him to surrender?"

Hong Chengchou responded, "Exactly." It's just that I noticed that this thief was not determined, and let the tiger return to the mountain, and he would make trouble in the future, so I cut through the chaos with a quick knife and executed all his disciples. Please forgive me, Your Excellency! ”

Chen Qiyu was a little unhappy, "You have already made your own decisions, you cut first and then play, and you want me to forgive what crimes!" ”

tried his best to breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "Yan Yan, you are also a scholar, you should know the truth that harsh government is fiercer than a tiger." ”

"The reason why Shaanxi is out of control is because the former governor Qiao Yingjia did not know how to sympathize with the people's feelings, but instead expropriated and extorted violently, which led to the accumulation of public grievances and rose up one after another."

"Now the chaotic people in northern Shaanxi are like the Yellow River rushing, which should be sparse and not blocked. We must not only crack down on thieves from all walks of life, but also let these displaced people return to their hometowns and find a livelihood. ”

Seeing that Hong Chengchou didn't speak, Chen Qiyu was even more unhappy and asked.

"Don't talk about the far ones, just talk about the tens of thousands of rebels nearby, do you want the officials and soldiers to slaughter them all?"

Hong Chengchou arched his hand and said, "I came to visit the Governor, just to ask the Lord to get rid of the evil, and not to let Kou return to the mountain!" ”
