Chapter 793

For the vast majority of officials, although the factory guards were their enemies and wished for the factory guards to disappear, they also hated thieves very much.Because wherever the thieves go, the local officials and gentry will definitely be unlucky.

In order to bring down Ma Shiying, Nanjing Xungui almost released Zhang Xianzhong, a big thief, back to Jiangbei. This matter also exceeded the bottom line of most officials.

In addition, the success of the Liaodong War has also begun to spread to the south of the Yangtze River.After the great victory, the remaining people were even more frightened, and they dared not stand up for Nanjing Xungui again.

On the other hand, Wang Chengen and Wang Dehua also quickly concluded the Nanjing Xungui case, wrote a memorial and sent it to the capital immediately, asking for instructions on what to do next.

Wang Chengen is absolutely clear about the scope of power allowed by the imperial power.It's okay to arrest Nanjing Xungui, even if you arrest so many, because the power of Xichang is to arrest first and then play, and the imperial power franchise.However, how to deal with the group of the most prominent among these courtiers of the Ming Dynasty will be determined by the imperial power.

..............................

At the same time, on the second day after Du Yinxi returned to Shenyang in Liaodong, although the new weapons in the army, mainly those using white gunpowder, had been used up in previous battles, under the strong attack of the army, Shenyang It was still captured.

This is not because the Ming army has become so powerful that it can capture a strong city in a short period of time without weapons; it is because the Jiankui in Shenyang City were originally moving their capital, but halfway through the move, they were blocked by the Ming army. In the city, the morale of the people has been extremely low, and there are not enough troops to defend.

After being besieged by the army for a few days before, Jianlu committed suicide in despair; even if there were still some people who resisted stubbornly, the number was too small, and it would be easy to enter the city under the strong attack of the army.

Daishan committed suicide again, but this time, his personal guards did not save him, but helped him commit suicide, set fire to the palace, and Daishan died in the palace.

By the time the Ming army broke through Shenyang and extinguished the fire in the palace, at least it was impossible to tell that the corpse belonged to Daishan.

After capturing Shenyang, the puppet capital of Jianlu, and the puppet emperor who captured Jianlu before, most of the Jianlu were either killed or captured. It can almost be declared that Liaodong is basically recovered.

However, the soldiers of the Ming army found that they were not very happy.Because they already had expectations for the recovery of Liaodong, especially when the victories were fought one after another, and it was still very easy, there was no surprise.

Even for many soldiers of the Ming army, they felt that there would be no meritorious service in the future, and instead they felt a little lost.

Du Yinxi quickly noticed the situation in the army.In other words, it was the Jinyiwei Supervising Army all over the army, who quickly noticed it.

Therefore, he immediately announced to the whole army that there were still remnants of Jianlu in Ningguta, the Korean Japanese army was still to be wiped out, and the Japanese country was still to be wiped out. Morale was high again.

However, according to the plan, except for the troops sent to Ningguta before, the army will be transferred to rest, and the next step will be taken after the severe winter has passed.

However, this does not prevent them from going to the capital to report victory, and to formally deport those imperial prisoners named by Emperor Chongzhen to the capital as a gift for this year's New Year.

Seeing that all the captives were packed in prison vans and left Shenyang to go south, Du Yinxi still had a doubt in his heart, where did the false regent who built captives go?

This is a capable Jianlu, and he must not die so easily, so don't go somewhere to make trouble again, right?
..............................

Dorgon, who was missed by Du Yinxi, is really not dead.

In the Battle of Liaoyang, when the Japanese army in the city ran away, he also ran away.

However, he did not follow the flow of people towards Shengjing, but ran eastward.

His purpose is also very simple, that is, to run east first, then north, and go directly to Ninggu Tower.

Dorgon is the regent of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he has a comprehensive understanding of the situation in the Manchu Qing Dynasty. He naturally knows that running back to Shengjing will not be able to stop the Ming army, and the Ming army will attack Shengjing [-]%.

Could Shengjing's city defense be better than Liaoyang's?

With such terrifying weapons in the Ming army, it is absolutely impossible for Shengjing to defend it!

Therefore, the first place Dorgon thought of was Ninggu Pagoda.

It took a lot of effort to rebuild the Ninggu Pagoda at the beginning, because it listened to Hong Chengchou's meaning and planned to use it as a spare place when the Ming army could not be defeated.

On the Ninggu Pagoda side, after two years of land reclamation, the Qing Dynasty was able to be self-sufficient in food and grass. If the Ming army wanted to attack such a distant place, the logistical pressure would definitely be heavy.

At this time, Dorgon had already agreed with Hong Chengchou's statement that he could not fight the Ming army head-on. He had to make full use of the Ming army's logistical pressure to start a harassment war. Only in this way could the Qing Dynasty persist.

The same is true, Dorgon escaped from Liaoyang, and went straight to Ninggu Tower.

However, to his surprise, he first fled to the east, and then turned north, and found Japanese army routs everywhere along the way.These rout soldiers were on the land of the Qing Dynasty, burning, killing and looting, which made the Qing Dynasty, which had a small population, even worse.

When the two sides met, at the beginning Dorgon killed the defeated Japanese soldiers who dared to kill the people of the Qing Dynasty, but after the killing, there were fewer and fewer personal guards to protect him.In the end, Dorgon could only act as if he couldn't see it, and even avoided the crazy Japanese pirates, and went straight to Ninggu Tower.

What he didn't know was that the Ninggu Pagoda was no longer what he had imagined; what he didn't even know was that the Ming army had also sent a cavalry army and was rushing towards Ninggu Pagoda.

Ning Guta is destined not to be peaceful!

...............

The Imperial Capital of Ming Dynasty, at least in the field of public opinion, caused a huge wave.

Originally, all the people in the capital were paying attention to the war in Liaodong, and the victories one after another made the capital happy.

However, who would have expected that Dongchang and Xichang would stir up trouble in the south, not only arresting Marquis Linhuai, but later on, basically all the nobles in Nanjing were arrested.

This is definitely the biggest event since the founding of the Ming Dynasty!
The newly established West Factory back then was not so arrogant; Tianqi Dynasty's factory guard was so arrogant, and when a dead eunuch dared to claim to be nine thousand years old, he didn't even think about molesting nobles.

But now, this is not just a noble, but almost all those nobles in Nanjing!
Really, this incident is so big that the attention of the whole capital has been diverted from the Liaodong War and turned to this big incident.

However, because of the different buttocks, the positions are also different.

For the vast majority of ordinary people, that is the mentality of eating melons, watching a movie.

For most of the civil servants, both Xungui and factory guards are their opposites. This is a dog-eat-dog thing. They are so happy that Xungui and factory guards are shaking, and they even think about whether to push them. Let the fire burn a little harder.

In the end, for the nobles of the capital, it was a bolt from the blue.

They never expected that the factory guards would be so arrogant that they would wipe out most of the nobles in Nanjing!You must know that the reason why Nanjing Xungui is Xungui is that most of them are after the founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty!
If under normal circumstances, regardless of whether it is justified or not, the factory guards dare to go to war with the nobles, then these nobles in the capital will definitely mobilize their contacts and fight back against the factory guards, otherwise, the factory guards will turn around and fight in the capital again. What about such a place?
However, the nobles of the capital did not have the guts.

They all witnessed Duke Cheng being exterminated. This was not just a Duke, but one of the most important Dukes among the existing Dukes of Ming Dynasty.

On the capital side, how many nobles can be more noble than Cheng Guogong?Once the emperor is angered, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat.

In addition, in the current war in Liaodong, there is a good news every day, and it seems that Jianlu is about to be wiped out and Liaodong will be restored.The Liaodong Rebellion, which had been raging for several dynasties since the Wanli period, is finally about to calm down. The court's recognition of the current emperor has reached an unprecedented height.

Under the prestige of Emperor Chongzhen, the nobles of the capital did not dare to do whatever they wanted.

Therefore, they all hurriedly inquired about the reason why the factory guard moved Nanjing Xungui?
The first information I found was that Marquis Linhuai had committed the crime of stealing the blueprint of the steam engine to Xiyi.

At this time in ancient times, they didn't understand what patents were or were not patents. However, there was also the theory of ancestral craftsmanship. If anyone stole other people's ancestral craftsmanship, they would definitely be stabbed in the back.

At least among the people, it was just this one crime, and the common people applauded the factory guards for arresting Nanjing Xungui one by one.Not to mention, they also sold a huge sum of 100 million taels, and they applauded even more under jealousy.

However, for the nobles of the capital, they felt that it was fine for the factory guards to arrest Lin Huaihou, and it was expanded to most of the nobles of Nanjing, and even forced to death a Wei Guogong. This was unacceptable to them.

Seeing more and more impeachment memorials sent from Nanjing, they began to respond.

At this time, some civil servants have been eating melons until now, and they also feel that the factory guards have expanded their attacks. What if they hit the civil officials in the future, they also began to set fire to the factory guards.

As for Emperor Chongzhen, he was also suspicious that Wang Chengen had suddenly captured most of the nobles in Nanjing.Therefore, he felt that the stealing sale of steam engine blueprints involved so many nobles from Nanjing?

But soon, he received the joint concert from Wang Chengen and Wang Dehua earlier than everyone else in the capital, and finally knew the reason why the East Factory and the West Factory went to war in Nanjing.

Immediately, Emperor Chongzhen was furious, but he did not immediately summon his ministers, but according to the usual practice, he contacted Liu Weichao first.
