And what is written in this official document? It turned out to be an official document for the disaster—that is, starting from June and July this year, there has been a sudden drought in Liangji, Shandong, Henan, Zhejiang, and Huguang! Even with the development of time, the drought is getting more and more serious!
So Yang Sichang and others all knew the importance of this war, and they all insisted on gritting their teeth and did not report it to Chongzhen, but they insisted until now, that is really impossible...
You said that in places with frequent disasters like Shandong and Henan, it is enough to come to a drought, but now even Zhejiang, Huguang, and the land of fish and rice, there are droughts and poor grain harvests. How can people live...
Therefore, Yang Sichang now needs to provide relief to the victims on the one hand and maintain the supply of rations on the other. So at the end of the official document, he reminded in a tactful way that the emperor, it's time to retreat...
"Hey—" Chongzhen sighed after reading it.
Then all the civil and military officials present did not understand, what was written in this official document? Why did the emperor faint after watching it
Then after Chongzhen saw it, he didn’t say anything. He just let people read the official document on the spot, and waited until the hundreds of civil and military officials on the scene had listened to it. Okay, those civil officials didn’t need to say anything. They originally advocated that the troops should be closed. It's already pretty good.
Even those generals who are eager to fight, are just clamoring constantly-we just fight, not enough food is your business! But now? They all drooped their heads one by one, knowing that it's out of the picture-this is all happening, do you have the power to continue sending troops
So in the dead silence, Yang Shanlu sighed slightly when he saw this. He actually knew something about this catastrophe through the original historical records, and knew that the catastrophe caused the original history. A considerable disaster!
For example, when Yang Shanlu watched this historical record, the clearest passage he remembered was that Zuo Mao, who was in the case of the Ministry of Households, went to Shandong to supervise the transportation. He once wrote such a book—" The minister arrived in Linqing from Jinghai, and saw the people who died of starvation three, three who died of epidemics, and four who were thieves!" He deeply depicted the tragedy behind.
However, these words do not appear in the official document. It is obvious that compared with the original, it is much better (of course, this is also normal. This time, Shandong and Henan provinces, which are the hardest hit areas, have nearly one million people a few years ago. The people have immigrated to Qiongzhou Island, so the disaster-affected population has naturally been greatly reduced).
However, despite the current situation, it seems that it is really impossible to fight, but even so, there are so many people present, but no one mentions the matter. Obviously, they are all afraid of mentioning it at this time, which will provoke the emperor. Happy...
So Yang Shanlu saw that he was the only one present, as well as Hong Chengchou and a handful of others, who came up with this identity, but he glanced at Hong Chengchou. The old bureaucrat was sitting still at this time, obviously not ready to speak. Look like.
In this case, Yang Shanlu coughed slightly, and then solemnly left the class to speak, only to hear him say loudly: "The emperor, it is not wise to do things but to force them. Since the situation of the country is like this, it depends on the ministers. It's time for the class teacher to return to the court!"
"Hey, it can only be so." Emperor Chongzhen sighed when he heard it, that is, Yang Shanlu said, so he can hear it! And at this moment, because he felt extremely suffocated, his fists were clenched, and his fingernails were deeply embedded in the flesh! But don't know it!
And he also deeply understood what Yang Shanlu said to him at the beginning-war is a contest of national power! He didn't have a deep understanding of this before... Isn't the war of mind and Tao just relying on the bravery of soldiers? But now it seems that there is nothing wrong with it!
Even after knowing that something cannot be done, Chongzhen has an impulse at this moment... I wish I could fly back! Wait until you return to the capital, and then give full play to Yang Shanlu's ability to govern the country! Three-year gathering! After three years, I will try my best. At that time, let's see if we can completely destroy the Tartarus!
"The emperor! The emperor!" Then Yang Shanlu saw that Chongzhen's expression was wrong, and even his face was flushed. Yang Shanlu knew that the emperor had a horn of horns again! In other words, he was given a series of victories, and his appetite was spoiled. Thinking about it carefully, what is there to be dissatisfied with when the battle is fought? "
So Yang Shanlu had to turn into a psychological counselor and gave Chongzhen some psychological counseling, including his previous expectations of playing and the current strength of the two sides...
Then after Yang Shanlu talked about it, Chongzhen’s expression gradually eased, and even after hearing it, a smile appeared on his face... Yes, it’s exactly like Yang Aiqing said. At this point, what is still unsatisfactory
When I first wanted to join the aid, it was very difficult to win with 170,000 people against Tarzi for 240,000, not to mention that the original intention of sending troops was to rescue Jinzhou and keep the only big fort outside Shanhaiguan! Don’t let Tarzi’s soldiers point directly at Shanhaiguan!
But now? Not only successfully rescued Jinzhou, but the mission was beyond the planned completion! Completely wiped out the 200,000 army of my Qing Dynasty! From the position of the overlord of one party, it has directly become a force of the third or fourth rate! And since then, there is no possibility of rise again!
(After all, after this profound lesson, Daming will definitely be very wary of him in the future, and it will never be possible to give him a big chance), including afterwards, my Daqing is just a piece of meat on the chopping board. Wait until I After Daming recovered a little bit, didn't he think about when to get the knife anytime and anywhere? So what is unsatisfactory when the war is fought to such an extent
So after thinking this way, Emperor Chongzhen adjusted and looked at the civil and military generals present. He just smiled and said: "In this case, I am here to announce that the battle for the aid has come to a successful conclusion! The army of the camp has rested and rehabilitated. One day later, the class teacher will return to the court immediately!"
"Long live, long live, long live!" After hearing Chongzhen's announcement of this decision, all the generals present were all from Shanhu Long live! In any case, the battle for aid this time has ended victoriously.
Of course, the so-called forest is big and there are all kinds of birds. At this time, there are some clever generals and keenly spotted opportunities, just like the Jizhen general soldier Bai Guangen. He immediately went out of work and knelt down with a face full of loyalty. Said lustfully: "The emperor, now that this war is over, the minister urges you to be stationed in Liaodong to guard the frontier for the court and for the emperor!"
The reason why Bai Guangen said so was not how loyal he was, but because he saw an opportunity! It's like he used to garrison Jizhen, too far away from Liaodong (Jizhen is near the capital), but what if he can switch to Liaodong
Because I don’t have the ability to continue pursuing Danzi now, it doesn’t mean that I will not be able to do it in the future... And with the current strength of the dog Danzi, as long as he can garrison Liaodong, I am afraid that he will not have military merits in the future!
And Bai Guangen has also seen that although there are not a few soldiers left by the dog Tartar, the overall'quality' is very high... The remaining are either generals or princes, if you can catch a few. , It’s not an extravagant wish to make a marquis in the future...
Moreover, even Wang Yanchen, who is usually reticent, can switch to Liaodong, so why can't he! Therefore, after Bai Guangen made this request, the other generals also understood, and the next moment they all expressed their willingness to garrison the frontier for the court! Share the worries for the country!
"Well..." Emperor Chongzhen felt a bit embarrassed about this. Before, Wang Yanchen and Zu Dashou were swapped. This was decided after negotiation with Yang Shanlu. After all, after the army returned to the army, who should be stationed in Liaodong, that is the relationship. It's important-you can't make another Li Chengliang!
(Because of the rise of the Qing Dynasty, it can be said to have a direct relationship with Li Chengliang. At the beginning, Li Chengliang was a general soldier in Liaodong, but he had the mind to support the thieves. Therefore, under his connivance, this has the situation today), so the current candidate for the general soldier stationed in Liaodong must be cautious.
But all the generals present have discovered this great opportunity! It can be said that the many battles fought before were not as powerful as the complete annihilation of the Tartars in the next one! Therefore, all the generals present were full of loyalty, and when they were arguing, there was one person who spoke-this person was Yang Shanlu.
After only hearing his light cough, and after the scene was quiet, Yang Shanlu said: "My sirs, Yang is not talented, but I want to recommend someone."
"Ah! Uncle Zhen Guo, please say—" The generals immediately calmed down after hearing this, and all looked at him expectantly, because they knew Yang Shanlu's status was respected, as long as he recommended it. The Emperor Chongzhen hardly refused to agree!
Even Emperor Chongzhen looked at him with interest, wondering who would he recommend
As for Yang Shanlu, looking at so many eager eyes, he just smiled, and then he looked at the young guy who was at the back of the crowd, and then solemnly said: "My sires, I The recommendation is the new guerrilla general Li Dingguo!"
"Ah!" Hearing what Yang Shanlu said, all the generals present were very surprised... I thought he would recommend a little guerrilla general with so many generals not recommending him? And this person, not only has been unknown before, but he is also a traitor...
Not only the people present were surprised, even Li Dingguo himself was very surprised... Originally, he also knew that such a good thing as others is light-hearted and from a bad background is definitely not his turn, but now? General Jinguo actually recommended me
Looking at everyone’s reactions, Yang Shanlu was very calm. Even after he glanced at Li Dingguo again, he thought silently, Dingguo, in the original history, you are a famous national hero. At the moment when the orthodoxy of the Han people is about to fall, you are two kings, and the world is shaking!
So today, although history has changed because of me, I will also give you this opportunity! (End of this chapter)
