Chongzhen Undergraduates

The three people in the conference room continued to look at the map, and the more they looked, the more it looked like Song Liao's pattern.If Houjin re-manages several important towns in Liaodong and North China now, it is not impossible to create three capitals.

As long as Daming puts his eyes on Wu Sangui, within two or three years, Houjin will be able to recover.At that time, relying on Shanhaiguan, from a strategic point of view, Daming will not be able to take advantage of it, and will be as passive as the Northern Song Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, the information is here." Ji Biao came back quickly.

Zhu Youjian browsed quickly and handed it to Zuo Maodi, saying: "Aiqing is right, Hong Chengchou is an old fox, he has deceived Dorgon."

"I don't understand why Hong Chengchou abandoned Dorgon and chose Hou Jin, an orphan and widow, to assist him?" Zuo Maodi shook his head.

Zhu Youjian smiled inwardly, this Hong Chengchou is really interested in Dayuer.

"Hong Chengchou sent Dorgon to Shengjing, probably to appease the Jurchen Department of the East China Sea. It is said that Hai Dongqing's eyes are the sharpest on the battlefield." Li Yan interjected.

"As long as the Marine Brigade becomes an army, it will be useless for anyone to come. Since Hong Chengchou has tricked Dorgon out of the capital, he will not let Dorgon go back. We must not let Hong Chengchou's plan succeed, we have to help Dorgon escaped this hurdle."

"What the emperor said is that if all the power of Houjin is controlled by Hong Chengchou, it will be much more difficult than dealing with Dorgon. There must be differences within Houjin. And Hong Chengchou cannot have military power in his hands." Zuo Maodi said.

"Then, let's play a game of Song and Liao attack with Hong Chengchou. I really want to see how capable he is to break my new chess game."

Zhu Youjian rejoiced, if the Northern Song Dynasty used its national strength to fully develop the navy, what would your Liao Kingdom use to resist it?

Chapter 429: Chaos in Xiangfu

If you look at the official history, you will find that although He Tengjiao claims to have recruited hundreds of thousands of Chuangjun in Hunan, in fact, the real main force of the Chuangjun has never been under his command.

The army he claims to be able to command is all a bunch of stragglers, or armed by landlords.People like Lu Ding, Jiao Lian, Yinxuan, Yiqing, Liu Chengyin, etc. were originally a small school in the local garrison, and in later generations they were at the level of company and battalion commanders. He Tengjiao was all arranged to become generals.

In the end, even some of these people couldn't control themselves, they fought each other's territory everywhere, and fought back and forth.Even He Tengjiao himself was not held hostage by this person today, but he would run to another person to avoid him tomorrow.

As for the so-called military exploits, they organized a swarm of bees to seize several counties while the Qing soldiers couldn't take care of them, so they started bragging.

Looking at the main activities of He Tengjiao, he has been in Hunan without moving his nest. If he loses, he will run towards Guangxi, and return to Hunan when he has the opportunity.Even such an incompetent person is still praised as a great hero.

In the summer of the 20th year of Chongzhen, He Tengjiao's situation became more and more difficult.The court's reliance on Hunan became less and less. After the Jianghuai War, even grain and grass were no longer allocated from Hunan.

If this was the period of warlord melee, maybe He Tengjiao would be proud, but now the Ming court army is getting stronger and stronger, and several provinces around Hunan have become Zhu Youjian's possessions, and he is already surrounded.

He Tengjiao sighed and sighed all day long, and the position of Governor of Huguang that he originally wanted in his heart has never been obtained.

With Yuan Jixian's release and Du Yinxi's promotion, He Tengjiao became more and more embarrassed.Seeing that a large group of generals of the Peasant Army were reused, several of He Tengjiao's subordinates felt very restless.If these people left, He Tengjiao would really have the title of governor of Hunan left.

But what he Tengjiao wanted was for someone to call him "Marshal".

"Marshal, Liu Chengyin has been restless recently. He and Wang Jincai said that they have recruited some new recruits. They are short of pay and food. They are planning Hengyang." Zhang Kuang followed He Tengjiao and was responsible for helping He Tengjiao raise food and pay.

"When is this news?" He Tengjiao's army is not the regular army of the Ming Dynasty, it is a mess, and the news is transmitted very slowly.

"What happened half a month ago was told by one of their subordinates." Hengyang is Zhang Kuang's territory, and he actually came to He Tengjiao to complain.

"I will send someone to persuade the two of them. Now is an extraordinary period. If you continue to make trouble like this and let the emperor catch the handle, then everyone will have a hard time." It can scare everyone.

"But we have agreed before that each family manages its own territory. Are they too greedy to expand their army without permission?" Zhang Kuang objected.

"Then what can be done? Who let some Jiangbei bandits flee to their territory. If these people are not recruited, the place will not be peaceful." He Tengjiao knew about Liu Chengyin's army expansion, and the imperial army gradually became a regular army. After that, there was no room for sand in the eyes, and Li Guo and Gao Yigong were not idlers in Hubei.

Just to cover up the eastward advance of the Sichuan army, they wantonly suppressed the bandits along the Jiangbei and the Yangtze River. Not to mention the bandits wanting to run away, even some local ruffians and bullies have been wiped out several times.It is precisely these people who say that they like to be traitors the most.

Where are you going? Naturally, Hunan and Jiangxi. These two provinces are not in the hands of the imperial court at present, and there are no particularly powerful local forces, so they have become a paradise for these people.

The territory planned for Liu Chengyin is in the Changde area in western Hunan, which also smoothly contributed to his development.Now Liu Bu's food and salary are not enough, does he dare to ask Zhu Youjian for it?Would he dare to ask Gao Yigong for it?

He didn't even dare, he only dared to ask Zhang Kuang to ask for it now, or he would ask for it with a knife or a gun if he didn't come.Anyway, his men were used to living by robbery.

"You said that the emperor is really true. The imperial court recruits soldiers everywhere, but they don't recruit soldiers in Hunan, if..." Zhang Kuang let out his thoughts as soon as his mouth leaked.

"Why, is your general Zhang jealous?" He Tengjiao was upset, he knew what Zhang Kuang meant by saying that he wanted to leave Hunan and seek refuge with the emperor.

"No, no, humble job means that the imperial court should recruit all those bandits away, so that we in Hunan will have no trouble." Zhang Kuang hurriedly prevaricated.

"The current emperor only likes the main force of the thieves and the young generals he personally trained. Don't expect to reuse you. See how many nobles are there in Daming? If you want to die, just send it to your door. Hmph!"

What He Tengjiao said made everyone's heart tremble. Zhu Youjian's style of doing things in the past few years is indeed like this. It turns out that most of the nobles, clans, and squires did not end well.It turned out that those thieves had gained momentum.

"I think the world doesn't need to be taken by the rogues themselves, it's already theirs." He Tengjiao's words were very heartbreaking, but what he said made the vested interests of Daming feel deeply.

The replacement of Wang Chao is nothing more than the redistribution of benefits. Don't think that you will not follow this truth because you are a time traveler.

Every change is also a legendary story of diaosi's counterattack. Conservation is actually losing people's hearts. Who in the majority of diaosi likes to live the same life as before?

Therefore, He Tengjiao underestimated the desires of Liu Chengyin and others. What he thought he could persuade with a few words was shattered in the face of real interests.Because this benefit is the "rank" that Zhu Youjian just played.

Seeing that those low-level officers in Jiangbei have a way out, a whitewash, and a rank, who would want to mess with He Tengjiao? He Tengjiao obviously can't give these things.Hunan is controlled by landlords and gentry. Now the imperial court is obliged to take the imperial examinations. All promotion paths have changed, and He Tengjiao has nothing to offer.

"Marshal Liu Chengyin, Wang Jincai's army is less than fifty miles away from Hengyang."

"What? Hurry up and lead the horse, I'm going to Hengyang." He Tengjiao immediately became anxious, of course he understood the consequences of a disturbance in Hunan.

Zhang Kuang's face behind him was so black that he could squeeze out ink, and the news just came to him without a doubt slapped him in the face.He secretly decided in his heart that he would never trust He Tengjiao again.

However, Liu Chengyin's newly recruited troops are not recruits. They are bandits and deserters.Before He Tengjiao arrived in Hengyang, Liu Bu looted and killed all the way, a group of sub-class gold soldiers who were alive and well.

He Tengjiao walked forward, and the news in Changsha City was quickly passed to Wuchang.It was placed on Zhu Youjian's desk in less than three days.

"Your Majesty, this is a good time to deal with the four southeastern provinces." Zuo Maodi was overjoyed.

"It might be better if it's half a year later." Li Yan didn't think it was such good news.

Zhu Youjian thought the same as Li Yan this time. The incident in Hunan came a little earlier, at least the court was not ready for it.

"All the people are in a dead province north of the Yangtze River. At this time, no one can be spared to reform the southeast, and even Hunan and Jiangxi cannot be covered." Zhu Youjian also has a headache.

"Let Liu Wenxiu send troops from Guiyang; Gao Yigong send troops from Wuchang; Feng Xin send troops from Xiamen. Join forces in Yongzhou and suppress the rebellion of the Hunan bandits." Zhu Youjian's sentence of the Hunan bandits is tantamount to directly assigning the nature of He Tengjiao's tribe. People basically don't expect anything to end well.

A discerning person saw that Zhu Youjian was taking advantage of Hunan's opportunity to suppress the rebellion and pointed his sword at Guangxi.

Chapter 4 Thirty: Fair [-]

In June, the procurement bidding meeting of the Ministry of Households will be officially held.

It wasn't until merchants from all over the country and some local governments arrived at the meeting place with local specialties that they realized that the purchase meeting that had been agreed had turned into a commodity exhibition.

"May I ask this lord, are the products brought by the small county directly sent to the Jiaofu?" A group of people dressed in eighth-rank and ninth-rank official uniforms obviously came from a small place. I can't get enough of the colorful world.

"Hey, isn't there a notice from the Ministry of Accounts next to me? All exhibits must be purchased in a unified booth, and marked with the place of origin, category, and annual supply. Only in this way can they be sold." An unranked clerk from the Ministry of Accounts also brought Officially replied.

"What should I do? Our county lord sent me here to contribute the property of the small county to Long live. How can this be sold at will? This is a crime of deceiving the emperor!"

"The same is true for the lower officials. How will the lower officials go back when they go back like this?"
