Chapter 687: History Repeats Itself?

With the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Dashun army pressing the border, the atmosphere in the capital is becoming more and more tense day by day, although there are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses drawn from Henan and other places around the capital, and there are also Beijing camps in the capital, but whether it can stop the Dashun army that is like a bamboo all the way, from the court bigwigs to the common people have no bottom in their hearts.

In the palace city, the celebrant and the office are brightly lit, although it has already passed the time on duty, but no one dares to sneak away at this time to be lazy, and everyone is in good spirits. All kinds of twists and turns of the military department and even the cabinet, and the military situation on the front line, unless a special 100,000 fire is urgently presented to the emperor, otherwise they must be transmitted to the emperor through this yamen. The soldiers are coming to the city, it is related to the safety of the capital and the fortune of the Ming Dynasty, whether they are really busy or blindly busy, anyway, the eunuchs of all sizes dare not slack off.

Fang Zhenghua has been promoted to the eunuch of Bingbi, officially jumped from a potential stock to one of the most prosperous figures in the palace, and has mastered the power of criticizing red, which is the time when the spring breeze is proud. Although many people are now uneasy about Li Zicheng's arrival, he does not think so, in his opinion, as soon as the Qiong Navy arrives, hundreds of thousands of Dashun troops will immediately be scattered and vulnerable, and his good life has just begun.

This night, he was sitting in a precarious position, flipping through a thick stack of folds, when suddenly a eunuch hurriedly walked in, handed over a book of folds with ink that had not dried thoroughly, and said: "Father-in-law Fang, this is just handed over by the Ministry of War, it is said that it was drafted by Yang Butang himself, and it was specified that he would immediately approve the red and submit it to the Long Live Lord." ”

Fang Zhenghua knew about Yang Sichang and Xia Nan's holiday, because of the alliance, he didn't even have a good impression of the military department Shangshu who was still strong in this holy family, and it seemed that he was suspected of commanding the ceremonial supervisor when he heard this, which was even more unpleasant. He took the excerpt with some displeasure, "There are mountains of excerpts here, and even the excerpts of the elder pavilion have to be prioritized, why should he give priority to red?" ”

The eunuch attached it to his ear and reminded in a low voice: "Father-in-law Fang has not been in office for a long time, and I don't know that some of the twists and turns are instructed by the Lord of Long Live, and I will go through the process to block the mouths of the courtiers, so as not to say that the Lord of Long Live will issue the decree indiscriminately, and use this as an excuse to disobey the will." I heard that this recital was written by Yang Butang according to the meaning of the Long Live Lord......"

Fang Zhenghua's heart jumped, before he sat in this position, he vaguely knew these unspoken rules, but he didn't expect that he would be bumped into by himself just a few days after sitting in the position of the eunuch of Bingbi. He didn't dare to slack off, so he unfolded the recital and hurriedly looked at it, and it turned out to be a recital to invite Wu Sangui to enter the king of Jingqin, and to seal the governor of Xibo and Jiayou.

He didn't know that the secret decree of recruiting Wu Sangui had been sent to Ningyuan for eight hundred miles, and the operation of adding an official to Wu Sangui to the knighthood was started at the same time, and it was proposed by Yang Sichang, and Chongzhen then pretended to be handed over to the ministers at the court meeting, and finally formed a formal decision, so that it became a collective opinion, rather than Chongzhen's self-righteousness.

But in this way, won't King Qin's credit be taken by Guan Ningjun? This is not what Fang Zhenghua wants to see, he prefers that all the credit for this Qingtian protection will fall into the hands of his allies, rather than Wu Sangui, who has no relationship with him.

After Fang Zhenghua came back to his senses, he stabilized his mood and waved his hand to let the eunuch go down. After waiting for no one to be around, he picked up a pen and wrote a two-finger-wide note, dried the ink, rolled it into a tube, and then called his henchman little eunuch and ordered him to leave the palace and try to give it to Shoufu Wen Tiren.

After receiving the task, the little eunuch hurried out of the palace, changed into civilian clothes in a secluded corner, and then took advantage of the cover of night to enter the Wen Mansion through the back door.

After a cup of tea, Wen Tiren instructed in his study: "Quickly inform the people left in the capital by the Marquis of Pingnan of this news, and then ask Vice General Shen of the Shenshu Battalion to arrange an escort out of the city from Yongding Gate." "He is the first assistant, although he does not directly control the military power, but he also has his own contacts and cronies in the Beijing camp, at this time the capital is under martial law, the nine cities are closed, and if you want to go out of the city, you must use the contacts in the army.

In the dark night, a city wall in Yongdingmen, several people were placed in baskets, and they were taken down the city, and soon disappeared into the night.

A few days later, Xia Nan received the news. The messenger was Huang Long, who was stationed in the capital, and the former general of King Gao Yingxiang. He knew that this news was very important, and in order to invite credit, he personally went out of the city for a trip.

"In addition to our Qiong Navy, Chongzhen also wants to transfer Wu Sangui to Beijing? And to seal the level of Xibo, plus the right governor? ”

After reading the note, Xia Nan couldn't help but glance at Lin Weiye, the direction of history has been stirred up, and Wu Sangui, Ping Xibo, actually appeared. And it is also to resist Li Zicheng, except that the time is several years in advance, the rest seems to be exactly the same as the original history.

"You've worked hard, and I'll remember it." Xia Nan waved his hand and motioned for Huang Long to retreat. When Huang Long got this sentence, his heart was very happy, and he said again and again: "Serving the Hou Ye is what subordinates should do. Then he respectfully walked backwards out of the big tent.

As soon as Huang Long left, Lin Weiye couldn't help but ask: "Is the inertia of history so strong?" So will Chen Yuanyuan appear in the capital as Wu Sangui's concubine, and will Wu Sangui be angry at the crown and open the Shanhai Pass for Hongyan to let the Qing army enter the customs? Are we going to face a more complicated situation, will the enemy change from one to two, three? ”

"Calm, calm." Xia Nan comforted, "There are prerequisites for the Qing army to enter the customs and a stone battle, but now these conditions are not available: Li Zicheng was driven by us to put on the shelf, and his original think tank and military advisor has only one Song Xiance left, and there are still our hidden piles by his side; Wu Sangui is not the general army of Liaodong now, but the general soldier of the Ningyuan regiment, and the people of Shanhaiguan are not in his turn; Huang Taiji is not dead, Dolgon is not the regent yet, and the attention of the Qing army is pinned down by us in southern Liaoning. ”

Lin Weiye's anxiety did not reduce much, and he said a little nervously: "But the situation is not much better." Li Zicheng's troops were not much less than in their original history; Wu Sangui has the Qionghai-style rifle we sold him, and behind him is the powerful Guanning Iron Cavalry; Huang Taiji's strategy will only be above Dolgon, and the threat will only be greater...... If Wu Sangui is called into the king of Jingqin, then we will have one more strong opponent to control the capital, and the border pass will also be empty of the entry of the Ning army, whether Huang Taiji will give up the entanglement of southern Liao, make a desperate bet to take advantage of the void, and enter the customs to disrupt the situation, it is difficult to say......"

Xia Nan closed his eyes and thought about it, and replied: "In the situation you hypothetical, except for King Wu Sangui Qin, the rest are all small probability events, and the possibility that we will face Li Zicheng, Wu Sangui and Huang Taiji at the same time in the capital will not be greater than if we crossed back...... But there is no big mistake in being careful, and besides, there is enough Wu Sangui in the capital to make us scramble, and we must think of a strategy to deal with it. ”

He ordered outside the tent: "Come, gather everyone to a meeting." ”
