Chapter 125: Knife and Hand (Asking for Support, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The trip was still delayed.
Zhang Huangyan stayed in Shenyang again.
Originally, Zhu Mingzhong did not leave Zhang Huangyan to live in Shenyang for a long time, and even on the day of receiving him, he had already expressed the meaning of "sending off guests". But with the news of the death of the Qing chieftain, Zhang Huangyan, who had planned to leave Shenyang the next day, stayed.
The reason why he stayed in Shenyang was because in Zhang Huangyan's view, for the Ming Dynasty, the time was ripe for the westward expedition. Of course, the westward expedition requires the cooperation of the loyal army.
"Now the Qing chieftain has just passed away, and the successor is just a nine-year-old child, if I can take this opportunity to send troops to Tongguan, I will definitely be able to turn things around in one fell swoop, not only can I recover Shaanxi and make the Qing Lu no longer be troubled by the Ming Dynasty!"
When Zhang Huangyan talked about matters in the west, Zhu Mingzhong only looked at Shaanxi on the map from time to time, unlike Shaanxi in later generations, the current Shaanxi, including Gansu, occupies most of the northwest. And now, this should be the area that the Manchu court can really control.
"And once the captives are destroyed, the southwest Qingyu will definitely be greatly shaken, and at that time, they will definitely not dare to fight against Wang Shi again, so that the world can be pacified!"
Zhang Huangyan looked at Zhu Mingzhong, his breathing seemed a little short, Shunzhi's sudden death changed everything, and made the battle that might have taken years or even longer to end.
Originally, because the main force of the Manchu Qing Dynasty still existed. It will take at least a few years to completely solve the full attendance. Or even more than ten years. Not to mention anything else, if you want to overcome the natural danger of Tongguan, it is not easy to get hungry. And the Manchus occupied the northwest, southwest. Not only is the vitality not lost, but even if there are a few years to recuperate. There's a good chance they'll make a comeback.
But now, Shunji's sudden death means a new opportunity. As long as we seize this opportunity, we can not only completely solve the legacy of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but also make peace again.
"Sima Kezhi ......"
Looking at Zhang Huangyan, Zhu Mingzhong said.
"Now it is very likely that Hong Chengchou has made contact with the Chu Domain, Hong Chengchou may surrender at any time, once he surrenders, then the situation in the southwest will definitely change greatly."
Perhaps for Zhang Huangyan, he is worried about the form of the northwest and southwest in the future, but Zhu Mingzhong has never been worried about the poet. It's not just because of self-confidence. What's more, the Junzheng Division has already obtained a lot of information, and all the wallets show that Hong Chengchou and the others have now begun to find a way out for themselves.
It is precisely based on this judgment that Zhu Mingzhong is so confident. It is clear that now the situation is at least in the southwest. Soon a radical reversal will occur.
"As for the Qing army temporarily entrenched in the northwest, it is not enough to be troubled, the northwest is barren and poor, not enough to support hundreds of thousands of troops, when the time is ripe, wave the army to attack, naturally it will get twice the result with half the effort."
The reason why I believe that the Qing army is in a predicament in the northwest is because through a series of instigations of the loyal battalion, now that Li Laiheng has gone out of the mountains to attack Chongqing, as for Li Guoying, the governor of Sichuan, what choice will he make in the face of the attack of the loyal battalion?
Zhu Mingzhong didn't care about this, but it was certain that Sichuan could not become the rear of the Qing army! Sichuan, which seems to have an army of nearly 100,000, is also already panicked, and the overall situation is like this, and it is not at all out of the world.
"However, is the king willing to see the Hong thief and the others escape?"
Zhang Huangyan stared at Zhu Mingzhong and asked rhetorically, he didn't approve of recruiting Hong Chengchou and the others, after all, that person had too much Han blood on his hands.
"This matter is not due to this domain!"
Shaking his head, Zhu Mingzhong smiled bitterly.
"Now it is the Chu clan that recruits Hong Chengchou, even the emperor's side does not oppose it, and the imperial court will not oppose it either, even if the domain is opposed, what is the use?"
After smiling bitterly, Zhu Mingzhong's eyes turned to other places, and then continued helplessly,
"Cangshui, now in the imperial court, this domain is the trouble of the henchmen, in the eyes of today, this domain is the heir of the first emperor, whether true or not, in terms of its throne, it is the biggest threat, for this it is bound to be in addition to this domain, and this domain has soldiers and horses in his hands, so, it can be said that it is difficult to sleep and eat today, for this reason, he even does not hesitate to trust Li Fan, but also in this domain to prevent ......"
Zhu Mingzhong's words made Zhang Huangyan's heart tremble slightly, this was the first time since the two met again, he said all his inner words so frankly.
"The King, under the ......"
Before Zhang Huangyan could speak, Zhu Mingzhong stopped him and said.
"What Cangshui did at that time, this domain can understand, but Cangshui has ever thought that if this domain intends to harm Jinshang, how can it wait until now? When you first drove it, you could kill it in the chaos army, so why bother yourself so much? As far as this domain is concerned, although it is from a distant domain, it has been enthroned as the emperor of my Ming Dynasty, which is naturally the attention of the subjects of the world, and it is also the banner of my Ming Dynasty to resist the Qing Dynasty. Naturally, he is willing to be his minister, and he will never think of anything wrong......"
Although Zhu Mingzhong seemed helpless, and a little sad and angry, but his words were very vague and said a message, and the amount of information was extremely large, although he seemed to be complaining, Zhang Huangyan still grabbed a few extremely obscure information from his words.
"Now, how can we tolerate this domain?"
Looking at Zhu Mingzhong, who was smiling bitterly, Zhang Huangyan's mind came up with that portrait.
"The king, who is the king?"
When he said this, Zhang Huangyan didn't believe that he asked this sentence, he never thought that he would ask this question, but now in the face of Zhu Mingzhong's helpless wry smile, he couldn't help but express the doubts in his heart.
However, after asking this sentence, Zhang Huangyan regretted it, after all, for him, he didn't know what kind of choice he should make after hearing that answer.
He is a minister of the Ming Dynasty, and now the Ming Dynasty has an emperor, even if the king in front of him is really the heir of the first emperor, even so...... How should that be?
The Ming Dynasty has its own emperor in ......
When he read this sentence silently, Zhang Huangyan's heart couldn't help but compare the king in front of him with Jinshang, just a little comparison, he had already got the answer in his heart, and sometimes, those answers were obvious.
Compared with today, the Huai King in front of him may be more suitable as a monarch, whether it is governing the country or other abilities, it is not comparable to Yongli, and even a thought rose in his heart - if the Huai King is the emperor, the world will be peaceful, because the Huai Domain is a strong domain in the world, and it has hundreds of thousands of soldiers in its hands. In this way, there will naturally be no possibility of the loss of power and the absence of a central center.
But...... The Ming Dynasty has its own emperor!
Again, when this sentence came to his mind, he heard King Huai sigh.
"The emperor regards others as loyal, but he doesn't know that the traitors of others will eventually suffer from them!"
This sentence made Zhang Huangyan's heart tremble suddenly, he looked at King Huai in surprise, and couldn't help but say loudly.
"He dares!"
Although he seemed excited, when the words came to his lips, the words did not have any confidence, after all, Chu Fan had betrayed him and Zhu Mingzhong, so what would he not dare to do.
"You, King, you mean ......"
His face changed suddenly, and Zhang Huangyan got up almost immediately and said.
"The king, the lower officials are going to go to the capital immediately, so they will leave......"
At this time, he didn't even mention any westward expeditions, and now Zhang Huangyan was more concerned about the emperor's safety, lest that Li Ziyuan really come to blackmail the princes of the Son of Heaven. Even that Li Ziyuan may not be subordinate, in case he wants to kill the king and usurp the throne......
It's not impossible!
Suddenly, in an instant, Zhang Huangyan's back suddenly cooled, and he couldn't even move, he suddenly realized that he was shrouded in a big net, and he couldn't move at all. The cold sweat couldn't stop flowing, not because he realized that Li Ziyuan was very likely to "kill the king and usurp the throne".
is because he realized that even Li Ziyuan "killed the king and usurped the throne". It is highly likely that the vassals of the world will also choose to remain silent. Even the King of Huai in front of him is very likely to choose to remain silent, because - today he intends to kill the Huai Domain! In order to protect himself, Huai Fan is very likely to choose to remain silent, he may not be willing to do nothing, but ...... He chose to borrow a knife to kill!
No, it is not someone else who kills with a knife, but, but, ......
Zhang Huangyan's face became even paler, so much so that even his lips couldn't help trembling slightly, and he found that he had actually become a plaything in Li Ziyuan's hands!
Li Ziyuan spread the news that King Huai was the heir of Emperor Lie, which made King Huai murderous, and he was afraid that Huai would not be a minister, so he wrote to the court to ask for the return of the court, so that the court was in the mouth of the tiger. Finally, after figuring out all Zhang Huangyan, he stared at King Huai and muttered
"Xiaguan, Xiaguan ......"
Who is the knife in this contest? Who is the knife bearer? Who is the beneficiary? Suddenly, Zhang Huangyan realized that not only he was a knife, but Li Ziyuan was also a knife, and unconsciously, under the self-righteous profit, everyone was willing to become the knife, and who was the real knife holder?
Staring at King Huai, Zhang Huangfang only felt a tremor in his heart, at this moment, he understood a lot, he also knew the answer, and the answer couldn't be clearer.
"Now...... Are you still in a hurry? โ
Looking up at Zhang Huangyan, looking at his pale face, Zhu Mingzhong, who knew that he had figured everything out, did not say anything to comfort him, there are some problems, you always need to think clearly.
"You know, the emperor is almost in Tanggu, what is loyalty, what is treachery...... Ridiculous, ridiculous. โ
Shaking his head and sighing, Zhu Mingzhong's eyes stared at the southwest and said
"If this clan is not bad as expected, now the Chu clan should have gone to Tanggu to meet him, I hope it ......"
Wish for what?
Zhu Mingzhong didn't say anything, and Zhang Huangyan just looked at him for a while before saying.
"Big ...... Your Highness, this, this is the art of the emperor! โ
