Chapter 436: The dust falls

Today, if you don't sew three, six, or nine, you don't need to go to court.

After Yang reformed, he dealt with the music in the Qianqing Palace, and he didn't plan to go to the Wenhua Palace, and the cabinets didn't want to go to the Wenhua Palace every day.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites is playing, and I sincerely ask Your Majesty for permission to participate in the arrangement of "King Qin's Breaking Array Music". The eunuch said.

Yang Gengai nodded, didn't say anything, since someone wants to participate, then participate, it's not a big deal, and said: "Quasi".

The eunuch handed the song to another eunuch, who painted the song in red and wrote the emperor's opinion. Then it was handed to the emperor to look at, Yang Reform hurriedly glanced at it, waved his hand, and this book was taken to seal it again, and this book was finished.

After dealing with a few more xiǎo matters, Yang reformed today's government affairs, even if it was dealt with, he was ready to go out of the palace to see Liu Xingzuo, who had cheated on death, and was ready to let him publish a "book".

"Big companion, I will go out of the palace and see Liu Xingzuo." Yang reformed.

"Obey, Your Majesty" Wang Chengen agreed, and recently the emperor has been free, and he has more time to go out of the palace.

As he was talking, a eunuch hurriedly came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Master Sun has to meet Your Majesty." ”

Sun Chengzong? Yang Reform was stunned, he didn't know what was wrong, otherwise Sun Chengzong would not be in such a hurry.

"See you soon." Yang reformed.

Sun Chengzong came in, his face was not anxious, but relaxed, and he came in and said, "Your Majesty, I just received the news that Dongyu has withdrawn from Zhenjiang Fort. ”

Call...... Yang Gai breathed a sigh of relief, this is really good news, the wild boar skin can't resist, seeing that there is no hope for the siege, he is ready to retreat, that is to say, in the first year of Chongzhen, he won the battle with the wild boar skin.

"Let's go, go to the platform." Yang Reform didn't think much about it, and immediately said that the wild boar skin was withdrawn from Zhenjiang Fort, and the whole situation in the north had changed a lot, and it had to be rearranged.

Soon, the group went straight to the platform.

As soon as the emperor entered the platform, someone shouted: "Lizheng" The people in the platform are determined, and they instantly put down the things in their hands and stand up.

"Take a break" Yang Gai waved his hand, even if he had seen it, someone on the side immediately shouted to take a break, and the people in the platform seemed to come back to life and continue to start their own things in an orderly manner.

Yang Gai went straight to the front of the big sand table, looked at the sand table, and said, "Master Sun, how is the situation in Dongjiang Town, can it be degraded?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Sun Chengzong took the xiǎo wooden stick and began to explain it to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I just received the news today, after the Dongyu reinforcements entered Zhenjiang Fort, they never launched an attack, although they still surrounded Zhenjiang Fort, and still caught a large number of Koreans from Jiangdong every day, but they no longer attacked the city, they were all hidden in the mountain cols, not at all, and even the trenches were not cleaned, and the ditches were filled with rain before, and they were not seen to clean up, and the water filled the trenches, and later found that they not only caught the Koreans, but also pulled things from North Korea, and the people and things they caught went directly to the old nest of the Dongyu, It lasted for several days...... "Sun Chengzong's command baton moved around on the sand table, and kept explaining the contents of the battle report to the emperor.

Yang Reform nodded, he already roughly understood what was going on, it seems that dogs can't change to eat, thieves don't go empty This sentence is not wrong, robbers are robbers, they are robbers everywhere they go, they didn't get a good deal in Zhenjiang Fort, but they want to grab a handful of North Koreans before leaving, cut, it's really tasteless.

“…… The preliminary judgment should be that Dongyu felt that there was no hope of victory, coupled with the imminent heavy snow sealing the mountain, it was estimated that he wanted to grab a handful of North Korea, so he retreated......" Sun Chengzong finished explaining, and made up his mind.

There are also a few xiǎo generals on the side, acting as staff officers, there are Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and several people, all looking at the emperor in surprise, this time, they finally won the battle with the Dongyu Tartars, and won beautifully, this was won under the auspices of the emperor, and the admiration for the emperor has been deeply rooted in the heart.

"Hehehe...... I will change it when I am the founding of the country, but I didn't expect it, it is still that kind of virtue, holding the sheep by the hand, and the thief will not go empty, hahaha......" Yang Reform had every reason to laugh at the wild boar skin, and smiled very chic and confident.

"Your Majesty Quannai Shengming, strategizing in the Golden Palace, winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away......" A few shì followed the emperor's sycophants, and the Dongyu withdrew on their own, which undoubtedly shows that this war, they lost completely, this war, ended in the victory of the Ming Dynasty, and the victory was beautiful, which has enough capital to be happy and show off. ,

Sun Chengzong also smiled rarely, and said: "Your Majesty, as Your Majesty said, the withdrawal of the Eastern Prisoners, this offensive launched by my Ming Dynasty, is considered to be my Ming victory, this is not only the victory of Zhenjiang Fort, but the victory of the entire north" Sun Chengzong also said with a smile, after suffering with the emperor for a long time, he finally ushered in a victory, and it was a big victory, which is worth rejoicing in any case.

"Yes, the withdrawal of Dongyu, the battle of Zhenjiang Fort, my Ming Dynasty is completely won, Zhenjiang Fort won, the entire front, the entire battle, my Ming Dynasty can be regarded as winning, now it is close to the winter moon, it is about to snow outside the pass, once the snow is closed, it will be impossible to fight again, hehehe, to say a big word, this year's war, I will win the Ming Dynasty......" Yang Reform said with a smile, now it is almost the eleventh lunar month, that is, the winter month, it will snow soon, it will snow, this battle will not have to be fought, there will be a war, At least it will be next year, so this year, if you win the battle in the first year of Chongzhen, it will be a very important thing.

"Your Majesty, this is indeed a great joy to celebrate, this fence is getting harder and harder." Sun Chengzong said with a smile that the victory in the battle of Zhenjiang Fort represents that the Donglu has been re-locked into a narrow space, and the fence for the Dongyu has become stronger and stronger, and the pace of trapping the Dongyu is getting closer and closer.

"Well, this is not bad, this time the East Captives have injured North Korea not lightly, North Korea will not fight with the East Captives anymore, I have sent Liu Jishan to question North Korea, I believe there will be good news soon, besides, we have defended Zhenjiang Fort, which is considered to be a passage between North Korea and the East Captives, east and southeast is Máo Wenlong, Jinning is Yuan Chonghuan, west is Lin Dan Khan, this East Captives, it is completely surrounded, as long as he is trapped for a few more years, without my Daming to beat him, he himself will starve to death, hey, Now that there are natural disasters inside and outside the gates, the days of Dongyu are not easy," Yang reform's heart was very open.

"His Majesty Quannai Golden Palace is in the middle of the plan......" Sun Chengzong also blushed and praised the emperor once, although the platform is nothing compared to the three major halls, but it is also in the Forbidden City, and it is not too much to say that the Golden Palace.

“…… According to the estimation of Dongjiang Town, Dongyu retreated this time, and it is estimated that a large part of the place will be abandoned, Jinzhou, Fuzhou, Gaizhou, and even part of Haizhou may be abandoned, connecting Zhenjiang Fort, Phoenix, Kuandian, and even, Yuanshanguan, this place, Dongyu is afraid that it will not be able to hold it, this time Dongyu and my Ming Dynasty battle, it is considered to be a broken muscle, and then I will have to confront my Ming Dynasty for a few months, I am afraid that there will be no rice in the pot. Sun Chengzong said with a strong smile, just confronting the Dongyu, so that the Donglu was not lightly injured, this has to be said, the emperor can see accurately, the strategy should be, if you change the emperor, a quick solution, that is undoubtedly the plan of the Dongyu, such as the wish of the Dongyu, now the war and the Dongyu stalemate, the Dongyu has been stalemate, after Lin Dan Khan in the west was beaten by Huang Taiji once, determined to take revenge, do not live on the Western Front activities, today to grab a Niu Lu, tomorrow to grab a tribe, take advantage of the main force of the Donglu is no longer, do not live sāo disturb the Dongyu, So that the East Captives will not be able to live in peace.

"Hmph, it's difficult for me to be Ming, it's even more difficult for Dongyu, I'm affected by the disaster, but I can help him from him, help, where do I get help from that place, that person? You can only get hungrier and hungrier," Yang Gengai also said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, now in the first war, not counting the territory of the ancient right wing of Méng, just Liaodong Town, you will recover hundreds of miles of lost land, Your Majesty, this is a rare victory, if you count the ancient right wing of Méng, the land outside the pass, this is hundreds of miles of land, Your Majesty, this great victory, should be sacrificed to the Taimiao, and comfort the ancestors and ancestors." Sun Chengzong said, jī moved, this battle is indeed rich in results, and it is okay to say that it is okay to sue the Taimiao.

However, Yang Gai did not have too much enthusiasm for these lands, before the war he did not care about the land, did not care about the city, and even allowed the army to retreat, defeated, etc., for the sake of this little land.

"Master Sun, I said before the war, I don't care about the city, I don't care about the loss of land, I don't care about the defeat, I don't care about the battle, I don't care about anything, as long as I entangle the Dongyu, now, although the Dongyu is defeated, but it is far from the point of defeat, and it seems to be a ......little earlier to sacrifice to the Taimiao" Yang Reform can be very sober, the enthusiasm for that bit of land is not so high, and now the undeveloped land in the world is several times larger than the Ming Dynasty, as long as he stabilizes his foothold, solves a few troubles around him, and starts the pace of colonization, he does not worry about no place. ,

"It's still Your Majesty Shengming, the old minister is confused, confused" Sun Chengzong quickly understood, happy at this time, it was indeed earlier, Dongyu was injured a little, far from the point of great loss of vitality, let alone to the point of extinction, those places, although Dongyu retreated, but it was still an enclave, and it was useless to ask for it.

Yang Reform looked at the sand table for a while, and said: "This time Dongyu retreated, where Yuan Chonghuan was under a lot of pressure, although it was almost winter, but as long as it didn't snow, I had to guard against it, and where was Mangui, don't be too careless, retreat appropriately, don't give Dongyu a loophole, nòng a gray face......

"Your Majesty, the old minister has already forwarded the news to General Man, where Yuan Ziru is leaning on Dongjiang Town, he should have received the news a long time ago, and the old minister has also forwarded a message to let them pay attention." Sun Chengzong said immediately.

"It's good to remind them, be vigilant, don't play lightly, try to maintain this year's record, as long as it snows, if it snows, this year's record will be decided, this is a victory." Yang Gai said.

Sun Chengzong thought about it for a while, and then understood what the emperor meant, and said in a low voice: "The minister obeys the order." ”

……

Liaodong, Jinzhou.

Governor Yamén.

The news of Dongjiang Town was also sent to Yuan Chonghuan.

Yuan Chonghuan took the 100,000 urgent information from Zhenjiang Fort, and he didn't feel good in his heart.

He was the governor of Liaodong and the mainstay of resisting the Eastern Captives, but in the war against the Eastern Captives in the first year of Chongzhen, he had nothing to do, did nothing, and gained nothing.

Máo Wenlong used himself as a bait, caught the Tartars in Zhenjiang Fort, fought with the Tartars, and won countless victories, and he Jinning this front, in addition to confronting the Tartars all day long, he still confronted and attacked, Yuan Chonghuan felt that there was no great chance of victory, and led the Tartars to attack? Yuan Chonghuan couldn't be as ruthless as Máo Wenlong, he wrote a letter of rebellion with the Tartars, and he didn't want to learn from the Máo Wenlong and hang the head of the Tartars on it. Although he didn't get it, however, where did Liu Jishan receive a lot of heads from Lin Dan Khan, he could also nòng his head.

Mangui doesn't say where to say, it is said that it is the most active official army in the entire Ming Dynasty today, and he presses the méng ancients all day long to clean up the méng ancients, and he doesn't have to fight by himself, but he can send a batch of things to the pass, although the head of the méng ancients is not as valuable as the Tartars, nor is it as valuable as the Tartar heads, but others live happily, and even the bitter haha of the border army follow him.

Although Lin Dan Khan was not under the jurisdiction of his Ming Dynasty, he was also in an alliance with them, although he was beaten hard by Huang Taiji, but he also had a lot of heads, and now, he also sent it to Jinning every three or five times, of course, it was sent to Liu Jishan, not where he was. So much so that even Liu Jishan, a person who doesn't fight, has a lot of heads, but he can't take out one.

Yuan Chonghuan is not only anxious, but sighing, there is no clue, there is no way to break the situation, now, the news of Dongjiang Town has come, the Tartars have retreated, this war is completely over, the war is over, but what about his head? But there is no nòng to ah, how can this be with the imperial court? How to talk to Emperor Jiāo? Although he also knew that he had made a lot of efforts in this war, and his merits were indispensable in terms of meritorious deeds, Yuan Chonghuan always felt that he was very bleak compared to some people. This mainstay, aren't you panicking?

"Eh......" Yuan Chonghuan let out a long sigh. Said to the xiǎo school beside him: "Command all the generals of the army, hurry up to the governor of the Yamén to discuss the matter" Yuan Chonghuan cleaned up the feelings all over the place, and had to start doing things, this news is very important, and it must be conveyed as soon as possible, in case the Tartar chōu fierce son gives him Jinning a look, then this battle, not only will he be useless, but he will also fall into the laughing stock of others.

……

"Interesting, interesting"

On the Liaodong Sea, on a warship heading towards Phi Dao, a man dressed as an official had just heard about the withdrawal of the Zhenjiang Fort Tartars from a warship in the past, and then kept chattering.

This person is Liu Jishan, who is preparing to go to North Korea, and this time his purpose is to question the lord of North Korea, reintegrate North Korea into the arms of the Ming Dynasty, encircle the encirclement of the East Capture more tightly, and sell weapons to North Korea by the way. After receiving the news that the Tartars of Zhenjiang Fort had withdrawn and were leaving to get a handful of money from North Korea, I couldn't help laughing, I really wanted to sleep, come to the pillow, the Tartars did this, I didn't need too much tongue, North Korea would return to the Ming Dynasty, and if I flickered a little, I would buy a lot of weapons, and the task given by the emperor was undoubtedly quite simple. ,

……

Yang Gengai ended the matter on the platform, left the palace, and prepared to meet Liu Xingzuo.

After a few turns in the street, the carriage entered a quiet yard.

Yang Gengai skillfully entered the living room, and skillfully knew what objects were there.

"Childe, do you want to bring that person up?" Wang Chengen has become a housekeeper.

Yang Gengai took a sip of tea and said, "Bring it up." ”

"xiǎo's obedience." Wang Chengen agreed.

After a while, a sturdy man was taken to the living room by the shì guards.

Entering the living room, the man looked around, looking very strange, and finally saw Yang Gengai sitting on the upper seat, and the strong man behind him, and bowed.

"I've seen Childe below." This person is Liu Xingzuo, although he doesn't know what the origin of this son in front of him is, but he knows that this person must be extraordinary, and he bows humbly at the moment.

"Yes, fortunately." Yang Reform just said simply, and didn't even put down the teacup for drinking tea.

Liu Xingzuo was surprised that he was doing a big gift, this person just replied like this, what a big shelf, no, what a big one

"This son, I don't know the honorable name, I don't know if I can know it?" Liu Xingzuo treated it more cautiously, this son's bearing is really extraordinary, not like a mortal.

"It doesn't matter what my son-in-law's surname is, the important thing is that my son-in-law can call the shots about you." Wang Chengen said on the side.

Liu Xingzuo was surprised that he wanted to turn out of the Tartars, and the people he contacted were all feudal officials of the Ming Dynasty, either Máo Wenlong or Yuan Chonghuan, or governors and other officials in other places, looking at the tone of this son, it seems that he is bigger than them.

"Can you really call the shots? In the next matter, even Lord Máo and Lord Yuan may not be able to call the shots......" Liu Xingzuo asked tentatively.

"Okay, Liu Xingzuo, you don't have to be tempted, Lord Yuan and Lord Máo in your mouth, we all know that when they see my son-in-law, they all have to bow three times and bow nine times, don't you understand?" Wang Chengen basically said it bluntly.

Liu Xingzuo looked at the boy in front of him in surprise, he was too young, this was the Ming Emperor who could take out 10 million taels of silver for disaster relief, he immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed again and again, and said: "Sinner Liu Xingzuo knocks on my emperor long live long live......

"Okay, let's be polite, this is not the main hall, but there are so many etiquettes." Yang Reform said with a smile, the value of this person is still very great, he knows a lot of insiders, perhaps, he also knows some about Shanxi's sī thing, this is a very important witness, but it is worth seeing himself, he met him for a while, gave him a promise, let him spit out all he knows, if it can involve Shanxi businessmen collaborating with the enemy, it will be even better, and in the future, there will be all human and material evidence.

"Sinners don't dare" Liu Xingzuo knelt on the ground and didn't dare to get up, he never thought that he could be personally received by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, or the emperor went out of the palace to meet him.

"Do you know why this son wants to see you?" Yang Gengai didn't mind others kneeling and talking, so he asked.

"Sinners don't know." Liu Xingzuo said.

"Actually, my son is very interested in the situation over there, especially the affairs of the upper echelons of Dongyu, very interested, you also know, now I and I are fighting with Dongyu Jiāo, and it is very important to understand the inside story of the high-level of Dongyu, the so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other, a hundred battles will not be defeated, you should have heard of it, so, I learned that you are anyway, so, I specially came to see you in person, and if you have any requirements, you can mention it to this son." Yang Gai said.

"The sinner is the one who knows how to return, the son of Méng does not give up, it is the blessing of the sinner, the son wants to know the inside story of the Tartar, Xingzuo must say everything, say everything, will not do anything to hide, dare not hope, only ask the son to hide the identity of the sinner for the time being, the sinner is a fraud to escape from death, and the sinner's brother on the side of the Tartar must also be anyway, and he is looking for an opportunity to ......" Liu Xingzuo agreed with his mouth.

"Very good, this is no problem, you first hide in the capital for the time being, don't lù line hiding, rest assured that you will record everything you see and hear in the Dongyu, and when this son is free, read your book again, pay attention, what you wrote, it involves confidentiality, remember to keep it secret, except for you, don't let people know, this matter, the fewer people who know, the better, when your brothers are here, this son will arrange some good errands for your brothers, and I will not let you down......" Yang Gai promised.

"Thank you for the great kindness of the son, the sinner remembers the five, and it is unforgettable." Liu Xingzuo was overjoyed, it was undoubtedly quite safe to get the promise of the current emperor, the reputation of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, it was quite good, entered the emperor's sight, and got on the line with the emperor, which he didn't expect.
