Zhu Youzhen was stunned.

Wang Chengen was stunned.

They understood that the young man named Wang Jinlong in front of them should not be called Wang Jinlong, but Zhang Ping.

The real Wang Jinlong died of a high fever, but he left his body to Zhang Ping, who jumped into the river to save people and lost his body.

It's incredible that a person who would be in the next four hundred years has occupied someone else's body, right?

It's incredible, unheard of, unheard of!

How the hell did this guy get through? That's nearly 400 years away!

Could it be that his soul has been wandering in the air for hundreds of years?

Be all abroad! Inexplicable!

Seeing that Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen were speechless in shock, and seeing the eyes of the two people staring at him like a super monster, Wang Jinlong smiled, "Your Majesty, Wang Gonggong, do you say that you can know about Jiang Jiu and Wang Chengyin's plan to join Li Zicheng?" Can you take someone to intercept their messengers? ”

"Yes! Yes! Absolutely! Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen, who couldn't close their mouths in shock, nodded like chickens eating rice.

For a long, long time, Wang Chengen finally came back to his senses, "Your Majesty, it is not General Zhou who is blocking Li Zicheng, it should be this little general!" ”

At this time, Wang Chengen didn't know that the young man in front of him should be called Wang Jinlong? It should still be called Zhang Ping, so I simply call him a little general.

In his opinion, this kid has made such a great achievement, it is definitely not something that the general can do casually, it is full of wit and courage, just such a young man in his twenties, with such a strategy and such courage, it is definitely not anyone who can compare with him, it is not an exaggeration to call him a little general, and it is completely okay to be called a big general.

"Yes! Yes! It was he who intercepted Li Zicheng's million-strong army, and it was he who intercepted Li Zicheng's million-strong army. Zhu Youzhen, who understood it, also strongly agreed with Wang Chengen's statement.

At this moment, Zhu Youzhen felt a special brightness in his heart, and the question that he had been confused and puzzled seemed to have found the answer, but there was still a question that he hadn't figured out, "Aiqing, why did you say that Jiang Jiu and Wang Chengyin, the two bastards, betrayed the court?" I haven't done them any wrong! ”

Of course, Wang Jinlong knew the reason why Zhu Youzhen couldn't figure it out, alas! At this time, the big officials and small officials were very selfish, and they only knew how to fight for power and profit, who still thought about the country? Everyone sees themselves as more important than anything else, who cares about the world, who cares about your emperor's country, anyway, it's not their own, it's true to get benefits, everyone is shameless, and they are all shameless not to think about what reputation they leave in history, no one takes the rise and fall of the world as their own responsibility.

"Huh! As far as the grass people know, the reason why Jiang Hao wanted to take refuge in Li Zicheng was for two reasons, first, when he heard that Li Zicheng had an army of one million, he had already been frightened, afraid that he would not be able to defeat Li Zicheng, but 3 and lost his own life, second, for his younger brother, I heard that his younger brother had been captured alive by Li Zicheng's people, as for Wang Chengyin, that guy was purely a coward, he was simply greedy for life and afraid of death, as for the ideological roots of their only want to surrender, there are also two. ”

"What?" , Zhu Youzhen looked at Wang Jinlong in astonishment, afraid that he had heard it wrong.

"One is that they think that the Ming Dynasty is incorrigible, and the other is that they want to continue to be high-ranking officials and horses in the future, and continue to enjoy glory and wealth."

"Huh! Not only these two people think so, but many of your civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty probably think so too. ”

Dig the groove! This is a knife in Zhu Youzhen's heart!

Everyone knows something, why are you so straightforward? Wang Chengen really wanted to go up and kick Wang Jinlong to death.

Zhu Youzhen sat on the chair and almost lost his breath.

Not bad! This guy is right, the reality is like this, when it comes to the fundamentals, you can't admit it. The Ming Dynasty has been suppressing bandits for more than ten years, but the more they suppress, the more they suppress, the more they suppress, the more powerful the Liukou is, not only occupying many provinces, but now they are beginning to take the initiative to attack, and what about the imperial court? There is no one to ask for people, there is no money to ask for money, the situation is becoming more and more decadent, not only there is no way to take Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, but even the Jianjiao in Liaodong also took advantage of the fire to rob, and they entered the fortress and looted at every turn, stirring up the surrounding areas of Gyeonggi, robbing men, women, money, and everything, the army of the imperial court can't beat people at all, this is the case now, and what will be the case in the future, I'm afraid all the people have seen it, how can they still have confidence? I'm afraid that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty have the same mind as Jiang Jiu and Wang Chengyin, once the court is gone, they will immediately change the court, Taizu, what should you do if you tell the child?

Zhu Youzhen just wanted to cry.

Not only did Zhu Youzhen see the situation clearly, but Wang Chengen couldn't be better.

But neither of them could do anything.

Lao Wang lowered his head and said nothing, there is a way that the lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the lord humiliates the ministers to death, but what can he do to help the emperor with a cripple who does not even have the bottom? It's okay to have a hundred officials in one town, but it's really not okay to fight.

The silence, the entire Qianqing Palace can be heard, and the silence is terrible.

After a long time, Zhu Youzhen finally relieved himself from his sadness, "Aiqing, I thank you for still thinking about our Ming Dynasty, but what should I do about the current situation?" What can you do? ”

Wang Jinlong knew that the emperor in front of him, who was in his thirties with wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and white sideburns, was also an ambitious lord, and there was a way that men don't dust off tears when they have tears, but when they didn't cry, at this time he should encourage this guy who couldn't stand it, let this guy see hope, and then muster up his fighting spirit, if this guy gives up, the Ming Dynasty will really be finished.

"Your Majesty, although the situation is critical, it is not impossible."

Hearing Wang Jinlong say that there was a way, Zhu Youzhen stood up suddenly, and looked at Wang Jinlong with dead eyes, "Aiqing!" Do you have a way? ”

Wang Jinlong smiled suddenly, and his smile eased Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen's nervous and sad mood.

"Your Majesty, if there is no way, the grass people will not come, with the ability of the grass people, they can mix well at any time."

Wang Jinlong is telling the truth, he is a person of later generations, has mastered a lot of knowledge that contemporary people have not mastered, and he will definitely make a lot of money by using it to make some inventions and creations.

Zhu Youzhen was really a little impatient, "Aiqing! Don't sell it, say it quickly! ”

Natural character, born Zhu Youzhen is a quick-tempered person, if it weren't for Wang Jinlong, if he was replaced by other ministers, Zhu Youzhen would have been angry a long time ago.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, it's useless to be anxious, if you want to know what countermeasures to take, you must first correctly assess the situation."

Zhu Youzhen also knew that he was impatient, so he forcibly suppressed himself, "Aiqing, you can analyze it." ”

"Okay, the grass people will try to analyze it, your Majesty, you see if what the grass people said is right."

Zhu Youzhen is really speechless, I am in a hurry like this, why are you still saying these salty things so slowly?

But Zhu Youzhen controlled himself.

"Your Majesty, the most serious thing at the moment is the military problem."

Zhu Youzhen nodded, what you said was good, so he stared at Wang Jinlong's eyes.

"Let's analyze the surrounding situation, first of all, let's talk about Li Zicheng in the south, after the battle of Daizhou-Ningwuguan, Li Zicheng has been completely scared, General Zhou took 6,000 men and horses, and killed him 70,000 or 80,000 horses in a few days, if he continues to fight, does he still have soldiers? You must know that this time he crossed the Yellow River east to make a fortune and rob things, if there is no one under him, what will he use to dominate several provinces? Moreover, since he rebelled, the experience of being beaten by thousands of officers and soldiers with tens of thousands of horses has been deeply seared into his mind, so he does not dare to continue fighting for the time being. ”

Zhu Youzhen was surprised, "You said that Li Zicheng didn't want to fight the capital in the first place?" ”

"No, Li Zicheng has a lot of advisers, and someone once gave him three strategies to seize the world. The first strategy is to occupy Henan and Shandong, completely cut off the Cao Yun, cause famine in the capital and panic in the people, and then wave troops to the north, break through the capital in one fell swoop and capture the emperor and civil and military officials, and then wave troops to the south of the Yangtze River to calm the world, this is undoubtedly the best policy, but Li Zicheng did not listen. ”

After listening to Zhu Youzhen, he was immediately scared into a cold sweat, this is really the most energy-saving strategy to subvert the Ming Dynasty, the officials and generals of the imperial court are originally half-hearted, if Li Zicheng really uses this strategy to cut off the luck, the army is panicked, the people are panicked, there is no need to fight, there are many officials and generals with people to go directly to Li Zicheng, at that time, he can only be trapped in the capital, and Li Zicheng signed an alliance under the city, and the Ming Dynasty will really end without suspense.

Wang Jinlong continued, "Someone gave Li Zicheng a second strategy, this strategy is to directly capture Jiangnan from Hubei, as long as the rich land in Jiangnan is occupied, the Ming Dynasty will lose the ability to resist." ”

After Zhu Youzhen listened, cold sweat continued, this strategy can really kill the Ming Dynasty, but it takes a little more than the first strategy, fortunately, Li Zicheng didn't do that.

"This third strategy was put forward by a person named Gu Junen, who proposed that Li Zicheng first take Shaanxi, and then ascend the throne in Xi'an, officially proclaim the establishment of the Dashun Dynasty, and then go north along Shanxi, occupy Datong and Xuanfu, seize Juyong Pass, and destroy the Ming regime."

"Undoubtedly, among these three schemes, Gu Junen's scheme is the most stinky, but Li Zicheng followed Gu Junen's advice, and the reason is self-evident, this Li Zicheng is a native of Shaanxi, and naturally wants to establish a regime in Shaanxi, with a long face! Moreover, Xi'an was once the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, and according to superstition, it had a royal spirit. ”

Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen nodded when they heard this, this is more in line with the psychology of ordinary people, Li Zicheng is a reckless, if Li Zicheng really has any eloquent strategy, the consequences are really unthinkable.

"Last year, Li Zicheng led the men and horses from Hubei to fight, all the way to collect a large number of hungry people, more than one million soldiers and horses, although there are more people, but the corresponding things are more, that place in Shaanxi is a poor place, disaster year after year, there is no harvest, how can Li Zicheng feed his soldiers? Therefore, Li Zi, who had just announced his accession to the throne, was no longer an adult, and immediately ordered to build a ship to prepare for the eastward crossing of the Yellow River, with two purposes, one was to go out and grab some money and grain, so as to feed his subordinates, and the other was that there were still many imperial army troops in Shanxi and Henan. With these threats, he could not sleep at night. ”

However, no one thought that the officials of the imperial court and the garrisons around the country were too cowardly, either fleeing from the wind, or surrendering directly, Li Zicheng fought too smoothly, so he grew ambitions, and continued to attack north after taking Taiyuan, but in the battle of Daizhou-Ningwuguan, General Zhou swore to resist to the death, and thousands of men and horses killed his tens of thousands of men and horses, can Li Zicheng not be afraid? Jiang Hao and Wang Chengyin's letter of surrender was intercepted by the grass people, and he didn't know it, I'm afraid he was worried that Jiang Hao and Wang Chengyin would take the opportunity to lead troops to attack him! In this case, Li Zicheng could only think about how to hold on to the land and cities he had occupied, and he didn't dare to take the initiative to find trouble, in addition, his army was also scared, suffered heavy casualties, and needed to rest for the time being, so Li Zicheng should not make a big move there in a few months. ”

Wang Jinlong's analysis is reasonable, Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen are particularly admired, but they also feel afraid, if the messenger sent by Jiang Hao and Wang Chengyin really sees Li Zicheng, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Zhu Youzhen felt particularly strange, "Aiqing, how did you know that Jiang Jiu and Wang Chengyin were going to surrender to Li Zicheng?" How do you know when they sent the messengers? Seems like you're in control? ”

Wang Jinlong smiled, "That's for sure, otherwise the grass people will be studying history for nothing." ”

Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen were surprised, this guy said that he was a graduate student majoring in history, and the history major was also worth studying? What the hell is a graduate student?
