Chapter 121 Qing Dynasty Anti-Ming History, Ming Discussion and Conditions

Speaking of this, Gao Yiming changed his tone and said: "Speaking of which, the Qing Dynasty sent envoys to Nanjing, the purpose is obvious, that is, to negotiate peace, and you all talk about your views."

"This history of the founding of the Qing Dynasty is a history of rebellion."

"Oh? I would like to ask Mr. Shi to talk about this carefully, and let us listen to it. ”

"Yes! Your Majesty, this rebellion of the Qing Dynasty has to start with Nurhachi, the founder of the Later Jin. ”

"During the Wanli period of my dynasty, Atai, the son of Nurhachi's maternal grandfather, repeatedly attacked the Ming army under the banner of avenging his father, which angered Li Chengliang, the general soldier of Liaodong at that time, and he led the Ming army to besiege Gule City, where Atai was located, Atai was punished for disobedience, and Nurhachi's grandfather and father were also killed because they were implicated."

"Later, the court found out the truth, and indeed wronged Nurhachi's grandfather and father, so he crowned Nurhachi as the general of the dragon and tiger, to say that this person is really powerful, when the court rewarded him with thirty horses, he relied on these horses, enveloped his father's old department, with these dozens of people, began to conquer Jianzhou, military strength continued to increase, to 1615, he basically unified the Jurchen."

"In the forty-fourth year of Wanli (1616), Nurhachi called Khan in Hetuala, the country name "Dajin", at this time the Nurhachi climate has become, the court wants to send troops to quell the rebellion, it is too late, after that, I broke out a big war with him, that is, the battle of Sarhu, which ended with Nurhachi's victory, and this battle has since laid the foundation of Houjin. ”

"As for the ultimate reason for Nurhachi's rebellion, it is caused by his wolf ambitions."

"Nurhachi rebelled back then, didn't he release the Seven Hatreds?"

"Yes, the emperor, but this is just an excuse he made, in fact, the so-called seven hatreds are all around the reason why the imperial court killed his ancestors and fathers, plus he feels that the imperial court treats the Jianzhou Jurchens and other Jurchen tribes differently, and is often suppressed. In fact, this is not to blame the imperial court, because the Jianzhou Jurchens, under the leadership of Nurhachi, kept attacking other tribes, and the imperial court restricted them for the sake of national tranquility. ”

"That's good, from this point of view, the court is not as harsh as he said."

"Yes, Your Majesty. In fact, from the seven hatreds, we can see Nurhachi's ambition, his ambition is to establish a country ruled by the Jurchens, and to Nurhachi announced the seven hatreds as the boundary, after that, Nurhachi drew a clear line with the Ming Dynasty The relationship between the clan and the Ming Dynasty, for example, in the third article of the seven hatreds, it is mentioned that the boundary with Wu Xihan, the deputy general of Liaoyang, is prohibiting the Han people from leaving the country without permission, and if they see it, they will be killed, which is only between countries. ”

"It's a pity that after the battle of Ningxia to quell the rebellion of the Mongols, the battle of Korea to resist the invasion of the Japanese Toyotomi Hideyoshi regime, and the battle of Banzhou to quell the rebellion of Yang Yinglong, the Tusi of Miao, the treasury was exhausted, and the financial resources could not keep up.

"It's all thanks to you, and I owe you a lot of thanks."

"Don't dare!"

"Just now when Lord Shi said the three expeditions of Wanli, there was a mention of the Japanese invasion of Korea, which shows that this island country is restless, and since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, it is also a wisp of aggression against our dynasty, this is a humble but ambitious guy, in the future, I will keep an eye on him, after solving the problems on the land, we will talk to him about the problems on the ocean, rather than let him come to us to find bad luck, it is better for us to go to him, while the signs are just emerging, or strangle in the bud is the best. Remember, the people of this island country are forbidden to be like me in the future, unless they are annexed by us. ”

"Your Ministers obey!"

"This time, the envoy of the Qing Dynasty came to Beijing to discuss peace, since it is peace, then there must be an attitude of peace, first of all, we must go to the emperor, and the Ming Dynasty to re-establish the relationship between Pan, and pay tribute every year; The second is to issue a clarification to them in response to the seven hatreds, explaining that the court is not sorry for them, but that they intend to rebel against the court; The third is that their soldiers and horses must be reduced to less than 50,000, and all the other horses must be disarmed and returned to the fields and moved inward. This is the condition of the imperial court, and you can summon the Qing envoys in advance and tell them the opinions of the imperial court. ”

After a pause, Gao Yiming continued: "Negotiate peace, that is, to negotiate conditions, we can ask for a price all over the sky, and also allow them to sit on the ground and repay the money, you can continue to play on the three I said, the main idea is this one, and it cannot be changed."

"Yes, you understand."

Coming out of the Qinzheng Palace, Shi Kefa and others gathered together, and finally turned the three things Gao Yiming said into five, in addition to what Gao Yiming said, the fourth article was added to the so-called nobles of the Qing army, and they must first move to their homes; Article 5 The personnel of the Qing Dynasty were originally the people of the Ming Dynasty, and after moving inward, they also had to learn to farm, so as to support their families and become rich through hard work.
