Chapter 16 I'm waiting for you!
Mao Wenlong said to the man who was sweating in pain but grinning, "Brother, you Jinyiwei must have a way to deliver the news to the palace quickly, right?"
The man said proudly: "Don't worry, General, as long as the general sends someone to send the villain to Denglai, this news can naturally be delivered to the capital in one day."
Mao Wenlong said: "Okay! Since that's the case, I'll worry about the brothers waiting for a moment. I immediately drafted the memorial. I'll worry about sending the secret report and memorial to the palace and submitting it to the emperor. The military situation is like fire, so I won't leave my brother. The brothers wait for the doctor to come, and after the wound is treated, they will go to have a meal, and then set off quickly. How about it? I sent a clutch to send my brother to Denglai, and it will be there in less than two days."
The man said, "Let's follow the general. General, go and write memorials, and the villain will wait for the doctor to come."
When Mao Wenlong heard this, he felt at ease to write the memorial:
"My minister Mao Wenlong bowed his head a hundred times:
His Majesty was very prosperous and the Liu brothers made an appointment with the last general on the third day of next month to meet with the Liu brothers and others to return to China and seize Jinzhou.
However, I heard that the Liu family's Taijun had already committed suicide by hanging himself in order not to drag down the Liu family's brothers. The Liu family decided to take advantage of the time when Liu family's funeral, and pretended to attack Ming and led the people to return south.
The slave chief Huang Taiji also decided to wait for the Liu brothers to raise an army of 50,000 Jiannu, and surrounded Mongolia to take the capital.
Wenlong risked his life to hear that I wanted to use the plan, but gave up seizing Jinzhou, and robbed him and retreated. And Denglai needed to cooperate. After the Liu brothers rose up, they gave up the sea defense and retreated to paralyze Jiannu. After Jiannu sent troops, I immediately joined forces with the Liu brothers and attacked Shenyang.
September of the first year of Chongzhen”
After the man finished treating the wound and using food, Mao Wenlong's memorial had been written. Immediately, Mao Wenlong sent someone to send the man to Denglai.
When Chongzhen received the secret report from Tian Ergeng, he had been "relaxed" in the harem for two days and was in a good mood. Emperor Chongzhen, who was working overtime in the imperial study, was angry at that time: "The dog Tartars don't want me to spend the New Year even though you don't want me to celebrate the New Year, I'll tell you not to think about the New Year in the future!"
The furious Chongzhen swept the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk in the imperial study to the ground, and said to Wang Chengen angrily: "The imperial edict, Wei Zhongxian of the Western Factory, Cao Huachun of the East Factory, Wen Tiren, Chief Auxiliary of the Cabinet, Cui Chengxiu, Minister of War, Guo Yunhou of the Ministry of Revenue, Xue Fengxiang of the Ministry of Works, Tian Ergeng of the Jinyiwei, and eunuchs in charge of the military commander of the Inner Supervision Army came to see me!"
The ministers inside and outside who received the order hurriedly entered the palace saw Chongzhen's gloomy face that seemed to be able to wrinkle out of water. They were nervous and didn't know what would make the emperor unhappy. If the emperor was unhappy, it would be a death for someone to die. The scarecrow made of the human skin of former chief minister Huang Liji was still hung on the Meridian Gate!
Everyone looked at each other, and finally the chief assistant Wen Tiren said, "Your Majesty, I wonder what happened?"
Chongzhen threw the secret report sent by the Liaodong Jinyiwei and said angrily: "Look at it all. These dogs and Tartars are deliberately not letting me celebrate this New Year! Tell me, what should I do?"
After reading the biography of the ministers, Wen Tiren said first: "Your Majesty, it would be fine if we don't know about this. Since we know, we can order Lin Dankhan to intercept the Mongols and the Tartars' advance was blocked, and they will inevitably retreat."
After all, it was the eunuch like Wei Zhongxian who was thinking about the emperor. Thinking about the fact that before entering the palace, if he learned that someone was causing trouble for him, he would probably have to ask others for trouble first. So he told Chongzhen: "Emperor, since the Tartars dare to come, he should teach them a lesson! Why not lead the Guanning Army to take the initiative and find trouble for the Tartars first?"
The other internal and external ministers were each in their own group. Most of the external ministers were Wen Tiren, while the internal ministers were mostly accompanied by Wei Zhongxian.
Chongzhen looked at the trend of the two groups of people quarreling again. Although he felt secretly happy that the two groups could not join in, it was not the time to let them quarrel.
Chongzhen slapped the case and said, "Enough! Don't argue!" The few people were so scared that they were tempted to apologize.
Chongzhen's face looked a little better and said to everyone: "Since Jiannu is coming to the capital, let them come! I want to hunt in the capital with Huang Taiji!"
Hearing Chongzhen's words, the two groups stopped arguing and unanimously pointed the finger at Chongzhen. Wen Tiren knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, no! Since ancient times, the son of a thousand gold is not sitting in the Chutang! How can your Majesty take such a big risk? According to the old minister's opinion, Lin Dankhan asked the Tartars to intercept the Tartars in Mongolia. At the same time, the Guanning Army also went east to put pressure on the Tartars and force the Tartars to retreat!"
Wei Zhongxian also knelt down and said, "The emperor must not do this! It is the old slave who is incompetent, which makes the emperor suffer such a great humiliation. Just let the Guanning Army do this. The emperor must not take such a risk!"
Chongzhen said angrily: "I asked you to come, I have a complete plan, so there is no need to say much!"
The color was slightly slower, Chongzhen said to Cui Chengxiu, Minister of War, "Summon Sichuan Qin Liangyu, Ma Xianglin, and Baigan soldiers to Beijing. He ordered him to lie in the day and walk at night, avoid the place so as not to be noticed by the Tartars. However, you must arrive at the capital before the end of the month!"
Then there were a series of commands:
"I ordered the Governor Denglai and the Army Preparation Office to cooperate with Liu Xingzuo and Mao Wenlong to retreat twenty miles of the sea defense. If Liu Xingzuo raises troops to attack, he will only set off artillery at the sky and will not be allowed to fight with him!
After the Tartars revived, the Jinyiwei sent someone to inform Lin Danhan to let the road be opened for Huang Taiji. After Huang Taiji came, he would block the Tartars' retreat and ambush! I asked him to come!
In addition, Wen Aiqing and the Ministry of Revenue, the Dongchang and Jinyiwei cooperated with all the people around the capital to move into the city. Those who refuse to move forcibly relocate! Tell the people to bring money and grain, and all the others set fire! In the future, I will use the treasury to replenish the people! Dongchang and Jinyiwei have made records and found that they would report their property and deal with it strictly!”
Then he turned around and said to the Minister of Works and the eunuch in charge of the military warfare: "After you go back, check all the weapons in the warehouse for me immediately! If you find that you are not qualified, you will immediately return to the furnace and rebuild it! I don't care about your bullshits before, but this time, if any soldier's weapons on the battlefield have problems, I will not only want your head, and none of your nine tribes will be left!"
After reprimanding the two, the fire burned to Cui Chengxiu, the Minister of War, who claimed to be the first lackey of the eunuch party: "After Cui Aiqing returns, he will immediately count how many soldiers that can fight in the Beijing camp and the Five Armies Supervisor's Office! Before Jiannu comes, gather in the capital in the name of my military parade!"
After arranging the people, Chongzhen said again: "Cao Huachun, if anyone dares to communicate internally and externally, he will be killed! If everything today is revealed, the major events that affect me will be affected, no matter who it is, all nine tribes will be killed! The number of nine tribes is small, and ten tribes will be ten tribes!"
