Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

The changes in the garrisons at Yipanshikou had a huge impact on Shanhaiguan. No one had expected that the emperor would set his sights on Yipanshikou when he first arrived at Shanhaiguan.

What many people did not expect was that Cao Wenzhao, who was once unknown, actually dared to withstand the tremendous pressure and really went to Yipanshikou.

The key point is that he was captured by Cao Wenzhao.

Ok.

The east and west pass cities under the jurisdiction of Yipanshikou were both captured by Cao Wenzhao, and with the capture of the above two pass cities, the north pass city also fell into Cao Wenzhao's hands.

Although some people in Shanhaiguan wanted to obstruct it, Cao Wenzhao was too decisive, so when Dongguan City was controlled, everything was too late...

For many days.

Shanhaiguan is calm, but there are undercurrents behind the scenes!

"Da da!"

"Follow!"

More than ten miles outside Shanhaiguan, a team marched forward in the snow. More than a hundred armored cavalrymen surrounded a carriage, and their goal was clear.

"Godfather, is it really okay for us to rush back to Shanhaiguan now?"

Inside the moving carriage, a fair-looking eunuch frowned and said to someone with a serious expression, "Shanhai Pass is not peaceful right now. The important place of Yipanshikou was taken by the people appointed by the emperor. God knows if there will be any disgruntled people among those people."

"Scared?"

Gao Qiquan, who had closed his eyes to rest, slowly opened his eyes after hearing what the man said, and said with a smile: "It's a good time to rush back to Shanhaiguan. If they really have any dissatisfaction, do you think they wouldn't make a fuss in Shanhaiguan a few days ago?"

"The results of it?"

"Shanhai Pass is still stable now. What does this mean? Even if some people are really dissatisfied, they don't have the courage to do anything."

Ok?

When the fair-skinned eunuch heard this, a hint of doubt appeared between his brows.

"The situation in Liaoqian is much more complicated than you think."

Gao Qiqian lifted his sleeves, suppressed the smile on his face and said, "This is a field of interests where various forces intersect. It is true that we represent the palace, but don't forget that in addition to the palace, there are many people whose roots are here."

"Regardless of anything else, the emperor is leaving the capital to inspect the border and is visiting the Shanhaiguan area, so we have to go there no matter what."

"It's just that after His Majesty arrived at Shanhaiguan, he suddenly captured a stone pass that was highly valued by all parties. This was indeed beyond many people's expectations."

"Then do you know why Wu Xiang and his gang didn't move? Because they couldn't guess the emperor's mind. Even our family couldn't guess it."

When he said this, Gao Qiquan's face showed some emotion.

Talk about it.

Gao Qiquan, who was guarding the Liao front, was shocked when he learned that the emperor suddenly came to Shanhaiguan for inspection. After all, Gao Qiquan would be the first to know what happened inside the pass through the people in Shanhaiguan.

After learning the news, Gao Qiquan wanted to rush to Shanhaiguan as soon as possible. After all, he, the eunuch who was stationed there, was sent by the inner court.

As the emperor's slave, the emperor came to Shanhaiguan, but the slave did not make any movement. What would the emperor think?

Gao Qiquan had a high status before Liao, but the source of all this was the emperor standing behind him. Without the emperor, he would be nothing in this complicated place!

But just after Gao Qiquan set off and rushed to Shanhaiguan, he unexpectedly learned what happened in Shanhaiguan, which made Gao Qiquan hesitate.

Gao Qiquan did not rush on his journey, but stopped at a guard post.

Gao Qiqian knew the importance of the Yipianshikou, and because he knew this, he sold the location of the Yipianshikou at a high price! !

In this matter, in addition to Gao Qiquan, there were other eunuchs on duty. They were not harmonious on the surface, but they had connections in private.

It was precisely because of this that some things that happened in Liaoqian were known to everyone in Liaoqian, but the central court was unaware of it.

"Originally, we wanted to wait a few more days until the situation became clearer before setting off for Shanhaiguan." Gao Qiquan frowned slightly and looked at the fair-skinned eunuch.

"But those guys said on the surface that they were not in a hurry to go to Shanhaiguan, but secretly they all went to Shanhaiguan. In fact, our family was the last to leave."

After hearing this, the fair-skinned eunuch immediately knew who his godfather was talking about.

Among the eunuchs guarding the area before Liao, Gao Qiquan was not the only one. There were still many eunuchs guarding the area scattered throughout the area before Liao.

"Godfather, what you mean is that Wu Xiang and his gang have been secretly contacting Yang Wu and his gang?" The fair-skinned eunuch quickly guessed something.

"That's for sure!"

Gao Qiqian frowned and said, "The reason why Shanhaiguan has not been in chaos is not only because the emperor has been staying at the Shanhaiguan General's Office since he arrived at Shanhaiguan."

"Even if Cao Wenzhao was ordered to leave Shanhaiguan and head to Yipanshikou to seize this important place, the emperor did not leave his residence."

"Besides that, Ma Shilong is also a cunning guy. The elite soldiers under his command only follow Ma Shilong's lead."

"Because only Cao Wenzhao's troops were involved, Wu Xiang and his men were afraid to act rashly. So even though Shanhaiguan is currently in turmoil, this is actually the place where mistakes are least likely to occur."

This is all parties trying to deter each other!

The eunuch Bai Jing understood that the thing he was most worried about would not happen, and his heart was relieved. He didn't really care about what was happening in Shanhaiguan. He only cared about his own safety.

Just like he followed Gao Qiquan to guard a place in Liaoqian, he didn't care about the stability of Liaoqian. What he cared about was accumulating a foundation for himself and making more money!

This is the reason why, despite investing a lot in Liao affairs, the Ming Dynasty achieved few results in the end.

Most of the groups on this land never thought about regaining lost territory, let alone inflicting a heavy blow to the Jianlu. They only cared about their own interests!

If this were not the case, Liaodong would not be in its current situation.

"But what does the emperor want to do?"

While the fair-skinned eunuch was lost in thought, Gao Qiquan muttered to himself. He had been thinking about this matter all the way to Shanhaiguan, but he just couldn't figure it out.

But Gao Qiquan was not the only one who couldn't understand or figure out what was happening.

Many of the eunuchs who rushed to Shanhaiguan to guard the city, including various groups in Shanhaiguan, were thinking about this matter in their hearts. However, even if they racked their brains, they did not know what the emperor wanted to do by doing such a dangerous thing and putting himself under the threat of possible war.
