Or he, when the Tartars entered the customs in the second year of Chongzhen, with just an old face, he gathered tens of thousands of elite troops, and finally killed the Tartars and drove them all out of the Ming Dynasty!

Some people once said that history is like the waves that roll forward, and all attempts to reverse the trajectory of history will eventually be swallowed up by the tide of history.

There is some truth in this sentence, after all, history is a general trend, and the power of this "momentum" is extremely strong, so strong that it can crush almost everything!

Yes, I use the word "almost" here, because no matter what happens, there is no absolute, and the same is true of the course of history.

However, some people can transcend the shackles of history, change the day, this kind of person is not uncommon in my Han family, almost every three or five hundred years to produce one, far away, just say the old man in front of him, Sun Chengzong!

From his experience in the past few decades, it can be seen that his ability is the most top-notch and outstanding in this era, and his strategic vision is unmatched in this era.

If Emperor Chongzhen can reuse him from beginning to end, then the wheel of history must change, there is no doubt about it!

However, this is the way the world is, this old man in history, this old man with such outstanding ability, but in the Chongzhen Dynasty, in addition to being invited to fight the fire in the second year of Chongzhen, he was put on the shelf by Emperor Chongzhen and retired at home.

Until the eleventh year of Chongzhen, Sun Chengzong's hometown Gaoyang was besieged by the army of Dolgon, in the case of dozens of times the difference in troops, Sun Chengzong did not hesitate at all, resolutely destroyed the family and relieved the difficulties, with his children and grandchildren, led the people of Gaoyang to carry out the last stubborn resistance.

However, the disparity in the strength of the army is too great, and the Gaoyang official army is limited, although there are some people, but after all, they are the people, where can the enemy beat the murderous Tartars, and finally Gaoyang City is broken!

After Sun Chengzong was caught by the Tartars, he also resolutely rejected the high-ranking officials promised by Dolgon, and Dolgon was angry and angry, tying the seventy-six-year-old Sun Chengzong under the horse and dragging him to death!

In this battle to defend Gaoyang, Sun Chengzong's five sons, six grandsons, two nephews, eight nephews, and more than 100 people from the Sun family, all of them were heroic and righteous.

Getting back to the point, Sun Chengzong got out of the carriage with the support of the seventh Sun Hao, Wang Chengen hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to salute, and said: "Pavilion Elder, the emperor has been waiting for a long time, and please come with our family!" ”

"Father-in-law, please!"

Sun Chengzong didn't say much, but followed Wang Chengen into the palace.

Along the way, Sun Chengzong, who is 69 years old, walked like a fly, full of energy, no worse than a young man, but seemed vibrant.

Soon, Sun Chengzong came to the Fengtian Palace, at this time Emperor Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair, His Royal Highness and the military officials were divided into two shifts, standing left and right, and everyone's eyes were all looking at Sun Chengzong who walked into the Fengtian Palace!

Entering the main hall, Sun Chengzong respectfully and solemnly knelt down and bowed to Emperor Chongzhen, and said: "Minister Sun Chengzong, meet my emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!" ”

"Sir, please get up!"

Emperor Chongzhen strode off the imperial platform and personally helped Sun Chengzong up.

Looking at Sun Chengzong, whose face was full of wrinkles, Emperor Chongzhen was a little embarrassed in his heart, because every time he invited him to come, it would be no good thing, but he had to come!

However, this is not the time to be embarrassed, Emperor Chongzhen went straight to the point, and said to Sun Chengzong: "Sir, that rice fat giant thief is cunning and rebellious, so that my 100,000 army was defeated and scattered, and the casualties are not counted!" Now the thief is trying to capture Tongguan and vainly want to occupy the land in the pass, and now only Mr. can solve the danger of Daming! Da Ming, need sir! ”

Sun Chengzong listened to Emperor Chongzhen's words, his face was not shocked, and said: "The minister understands, for the Ming Dynasty, the minister bows and does his best, and then he dies!" ”

"Good!"

Seeing that Sun Chengzong did not shirk at all, he responded in one bite, Emperor Chongzhen was overjoyed, and after shouting good, he turned around and returned to the imperial platform, and turned to Sun Chengzong again and said: "Sun Aiqing takes the order!" ”

"The minister takes the order!"

Sun Chengzong knelt on the ground again.

"Bestow Aiqing as a scholar of Wenhua Palace, add the crown prince and Taibao, and be in charge of trilateral military affairs and government affairs. Full authority to preside over the suppression of bandits! ”

"Command, thank you!"

At this time, the two eunuchs each held a tray and stood behind Sun Chengzong, on which were the official robes and ribbons for Sun Chengzong.

After Sun Chengzong knelt down and kowtowed, he asked Emperor Chongzhen: "I don't know how much food the emperor gave to his ministers to preside over the bandits?" ”

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but look at the Hubu Shangshu Bi Ziyan.

Bi Ziyan knew what Emperor Chongzhen meant, and reluctantly went out of work and said to Sun Chengzong: "Ge Lao, the previous imperial court organized an army of 100,000 to suppress bandits, and the treasury has been exhausted, and now it is no longer possible to take out a penny of silver!" A grain of millet! ”

Although Bi Ziyan's words are a bit exaggerated, they are not far from the actual situation, you must know that last time in order to gather the money and food needed by the 100,000 army, Bi Ziyan had already searched the treasury to the bottom, and now where is the silver!

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen didn't dare to look at Sun Chengzong, after all, he wanted the horses to run, and he didn't give the horses grass, even if Emperor Chongzhen didn't want to be cheeky, he couldn't do this.

However, now that it has come to this point, Emperor Chongzhen has no choice, the treasury has no money, and where is his inner money rich!

In order to cope with the palace expenses, Emperor Chongzhen didn't know how many palace ornaments and decorations he secretly sold.

Helpless, Emperor Chongzhen had to pretend to be stupid and not speak!

Sun Chengzong didn't seem to be surprised by Bi Ziyan's answer, and he had already known that Emperor Chongzhen didn't react, so he only heard Sun Chengzong say to Emperor Chongzhen again: "Your Majesty, you have no money and food, and ask the emperor to send down grace, and when the ministers and governors suppress bandits on the three sides, you can exercise the right to act cheaply!" ”

"Okay, I'm done!"

Emperor Chongzhen didn't think about it, so he just agreed.

An authorization can solve the urgent need, how could Emperor Chongzhen refuse!

Saying that, Emperor Chongzhen ordered Wang Chengen to take the sword of the Son of Heaven he was wearing, and handed it into the hands of Sun Chengzong.

"Sir, this sword is the imperial sword of Emperor Taizu Gao, it has always been a royal heavy weapon, and it is now awarded to Mr., Mr. can use this sword no matter who it is, you can cut it first and then play!"

Originally, the emperor awarded the minister Shang Fang a sword, which is what it means, and the sword is useless, that is, to make the minister happy and show off.
