Chapter 467 (Part I)
"General Man, as long as you believe that Yuan Chonghuan colluded with slave soldiers to invade the Beijing Division, he is colluding with the slave soldiers to invade the Beijing Division."
Seeing that Man Gui was so unenlightened, Liang Tingdong simply said it thoroughly: "Didn't you think of serving as a military commander and worshipping the marquis?" ”
"What?!"
Man Gui never imagined that one day he would be able to serve as a martial artist and serve as a local governor who could only serve as a literati.
But after his mind was shocked, he was also a little lively.
This was looked at by Liang Tingdong, and he struck while the iron was hot: "General Man, what's wrong with being a marquis and doing a scripture strategy as a martial artist?" Yang Chengying can still be married by the princess, why can't you! ”
"But me, it's all delusional!" Man Gui's heart moved.
"It's not delusional! His Majesty no longer trusted Yuan Chonghuan, and there was no more suitable leader in the Beijing Division than General Man. ”
Liang Tingdong pressed step by step: "Just imagine, if General Man holds the Guanning Army and Hongyi cannons, and has the full support of the major people in Beijing, will it be easy to drive the slave soldiers out of the country." ”
"This ...... I'll think again. ”
"Yes. However, there is one thing I want to say ahead, there is only one chance, and there is no chance if you miss it. ”
After Liang Tingdong finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Leaving Man Gui standing in place, completely confused about today's events.
He had a vague sense that a force was forcing him to use a knife against his former comrades.
Yes, there is a force.
They were the nobles of the imperial court headed by Wu Weiying, and they were full of dissatisfaction with Yuan Chonghuan's fight like this, and they lacked a true understanding of the Ming army, so they were angry with Yuan Chonghuan.
Not only them, but also the people who were brutalized by slaves all over the city, they simply and intuitively believed that the temptation of Yuan Chonghuan and the Tartars to come and go was simply an arsonance.
Of course, how can these people be compared with the nobles of the court headed by Wu Weiying.
Just when Yuan Chonghuan was outside the capital and fought against the Houjin army, some wild histories with a large number of mixed truths and falsehoods began to spread among the people.
For example, Wu Weiying sent someone to catch a knife and write the Zhenhai Spring and Autumn Period written by the name "Wu Guohua", as well as the "Ming Ji Beiluo" and "Shikui Book" written by hired people.
This is exactly the same as the "Liaodong Biography" that framed Xiong Tingbi back then.
As for the clique represented by Wen Tiren and Zhou Yanru, their goal is to overthrow the so-called "Donglin Party" group that exists in large numbers in the DPRK.
As for framing Yuan Chonghuan, it was just as an entry point. Just like when Wei Zhongxian framed Xiong Tingbi, just to bring down the "Donglin Party".
After overthrowing the "Donglin Party", they were able to enter the cabinet and take power.
And Liang Tingdong is the person sent by Wu Weiying and others to contact Man Gui.
Yang Chengying's Jinzhou army was far away in Guangning, and except for Man Gui, there was no suitable candidate to replace Yuan Chonghuan. No one succeeded Yuan Chonghuan, and even if Chongzhen had the intention to kill Yuan Chonghuan, he would only put down the butcher knife temporarily.
But with Man Gui, Chongzhen was given the illusion that even if Yuan Chonghuan was arrested, he could stabilize the Jingshi and Guan Ning Army.
However, they miscalculated one thing, and that was Chongzhen.
Although Chongzhen is young, his eyes have not been completely blinded by them. After all, the battle of Guangqumen is in front of him, how can a bloody general have the heart to collude with foreign enemies.
At this time, Huang Taiji mixed in with a hand.
It is said that Gao Hongzhong, the general of the Han army, has not been reused since he surrendered to the Houjin State, and his position has always been behind Tong Yangzhen, Liu Xingzuo, and Li Yongfang.
He was very dissatisfied with this status quo in his heart, and saw that Huang Taiji demoted Liu Xingzuo, Li Yongfang and others to Phoenix City to garrison, if he couldn't replace them at this time, and then more powerful Han people emerged, then he would never have a chance to come out.
In the past few days, he has been tossing and turning in bed thinking about how to get rid of Yuan Chonghuan.
Suddenly, he thought of something, so he happily went to see Huang Taiji.
"Great Khan, the people of Jingshi have a lot of complaints about Yuan Chonghuan, and those nobles and ministers who have been taken over by us will also be very unhappy."
Gao Hongzhong said: "We can follow Zhou Yu's example to get rid of Cai Mao with a counter-plot, and also use a counter-plot to get rid of Yuan Chonghuan!" ”
Unexpectedly, this sentence made Huang Taiji laugh.
"Haha...... General Gao, I won't tell you that I have also thought about this problem, to get rid of Yuan Chonghuan at the lowest cost, there is no better than borrowing a knife to kill people! ”
Huang Taiji patted Gao Hongzhong on the shoulder and said with a smile: "But Chongzhen is not an eight-year-old child, how can he kill his own general under the current situation of the enemy, this strategy is too clumsy." ”
"Great Khan, whether a plan is clumsy or not is not a matter of the scheme itself, but of whom it is used."
Gao Hongzhong said confidently: "Subudi sent people to rob the people we transported to Shenyang, we know this, but the Ming court may not know. ”
"Go on."
"The Ming court has never been clear about the relationship between Duoyanwei and Karaqin, and has always thought that they are a family. Then if the Karaqin cavalry appears in the direction of Miyun, they will think that Duoyanwei will also join them. ”
"You mean, Subudi has jumped into the Yellow River and can't wash it. Then, Yuan Chonghuan, who sells grain to Subudi, is equivalent to a thief from inside and outside. ”
"Exactly! Shang Shuyun's 'is a mountain and nine thousands, and his achievements fall short. ’。 Although our plan is clumsy, it may be the last dustpan to kill Yuan Chonghuan! ”
After hearing this, Huang Taiji's eyes lit up.
Indeed, the most successful scheme is to be useful, whether it is clumsy or not.
Even if he fails in the end, it's just one more thing to be ridiculed by the Mingren. Anyway, if there are more lice, it doesn't itch, and it's not bad for one or two.
"This matter will be handed over to you and Shi Tingzhu, Jin Li, and Dahai, even if you don't eradicate Yuan Chonghuan, it doesn't matter, it's okay to be idle anyway."
Huang Taiji slapped the table and determined the discord meter.
So, for the next few days, he led his army to confront the Guanning army, but did not attack.
On the other hand, Huang Taiji asked Gao Hong and others to entertain a captured eunuch named Yang Chun.
One day, Shi Tingzhu and Dahai entertained Yang Chun with wine and meat.
Yang Chun has been entertained for two or three days, and although he has lost his initial restraint, he is still cautious about drinking and eating with them.
was chatting, when he suddenly saw a guard come in and whispered a few words in Shi Tingzhu's ear.
Shi Tingzhu listened, and glanced at Dahai.
Dahai, a native of the Zhenglan Banner, is a minister who is very trusted by Huang Taiji, and is given the name Bakshi.
Seeing Shi Tingzhu's eyes, Dahai pretended to understand, and the two left the table together and came outside the tent.
Yang Chun saw that they were walking in a hurry, and a curiosity arose in his heart, and he came to the door of the tent with trepidation.
Through the crack in the door, he saw Gao Hongzhong and Jin Li, who had entertained him a few days ago, but they were all undressed and sweating profusely, and they all looked like they had just come down from the front line.
"Oops, the troops have withdrawn again, and not even a drop of sweat has been shed."
Gao Hongzhong said to Shi Tingzhu and Dahai: "The two of you are a little tired of accompanying Grandpa Yang, please go down and rest, and we will accompany Grandpa Yang." ”
