Chapter 782 Three strategies: upper, middle and lower

When Emperor Chongzhen heard the report, he couldn't help but sigh: It seems that Jianlu's rise is indeed not an accident. If it weren't for a strategic mistake and they were allowed to fight, it would still be difficult to truly eliminate them.

Speaking of which, the real Jianlu people have been fighting for so many years. In the past, they won many battles and lost almost none, so the army was mostly veterans who were used to fighting. For this kind of army, if it is just a purely tactical battle, it is indeed difficult to say whether it will win or lose.

The reason why the previous Gaizhou war was easy to win was firstly because Jianlu did not understand the Ming army and still treated it with old impressions; secondly, the results of many battles forced the opponent to fight quickly.

It seems that in future wars, the Jianlu will still be forced to use their shortcomings against the strengths of the Ming army! If that doesn't work, let them have to fight a decisive battle, and don't use this most annoying guerrilla warfare.

When Emperor Chongzhen thought of this, his heart suddenly moved, and he immediately thought of the problem he had been considering for the past few days: how to use the problems provided by Hailanzhu!

He thought about it quietly for a long time, and finally got an idea. He immediately issued an order to have the envoy from Taiyuan Hospital come to see him.

Gao Shiyue, the eunuch on duty, immediately sent a chamberlain to deliver the order, but he still felt baffled. He didn't know why the emperor summoned the envoy from the Taiyuan Hospital. Well, no one was sick!

Not long after, the envoy from the Taiyuan Hospital hurriedly arrived. After the ceremony, he looked at the emperor. He seemed to be looking very good and there was nothing wrong with him! So, he was also puzzled.

Emperor Chongzhen did not leave them puzzled for long, and immediately asked him: "I want a kind of poisonous food, and the requirement is that it will not attack immediately after eating it. If there are adverse reactions after about a month or two, it is best to die. It doesn’t matter if you don’t die or become disabled. Is there any way to do it here at Taiyuan Hospital?”

"..." The Imperial Palace Commander was speechless and looked at the emperor in a daze.

"..." Gao Shiyue was also stunned. What does this mean?

"Huh?" Seeing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but snorted a little loudly, which immediately called back their souls.

The envoy from the Taiyuan Hospital said with some fear: "Your Majesty, how much of this food do you want?"

"How much is the portion?" When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, it was his turn to be stunned for a moment, then he thought about it and said, "At least three or four thousand people can eat enough for a month!"

If the Mongols wanted to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, they would definitely have to allocate food to them. After identifying which tribe was secretly working for Huang Taiji, he gave them the poisonous food. In this way, the poisonous food would be transferred to Jianlu's hands.

Judging from the current food shortage in Jianlu, this batch of food will definitely be distributed to the senior officials in Jianlu or their cronies first. It's best to use it as military rations and give it to the veterans of Jianlu during the war. Hehe...

However, it is impossible to provide more food. After all, Ming's own food is also in short supply. The most important thing is, what should I do if I give too much and arouse Jianlu's suspicion? That Huang Taiji must be very suspicious!

While he was thinking about it, the Imperial Hospital envoy was dumbfounded again. He thought it would only be a few kilograms of grain at most, but the emperor said he wanted this much!

Seeing that he was in a daze again, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but frown. He felt a little misunderstood and asked, "If it's not easy to produce the kind of food I asked for, or if the cost is too high, I won't force it!"

Hearing what the emperor said, the Imperial Hospital Commander breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said: "Your Majesty, if it is only a few kilograms, this is easy to do, but if it is too much, it seems not feasible according to the general method, or Is the cost too high, or is it difficult to determine the effect, unless we try it on death row prisoners?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but think: "Yes, if the so-called poisonous food is finally produced here, and then the toxic substances are washed away by Jianlu, then Jianlu will be given an advantage." ?”

There is one way that Emperor Chongzhen cannot wash away, that is, food grown in wastewater or other toxic water, this kind of food cannot be washed away. But this cycle is too long and unrealistic!

If it was soaked in poisonous water or smoked, and Jianlu took it to eat, I don’t know what the effect would be. If the effect was not good, it would be a favor to Jianlu.

With this in mind, Emperor Chongzhen told the envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital: "Please think about it first. If you have a good idea, come back and tell me!"

There was no compulsory requirement, which made the Imperial Hospital envoy feel relieved. He immediately obeyed the order and thought about it without any pressure.

Emperor Chongzhen's thoughts returned to the original question, how to use the information provided by Hai Lanzhu. Either the thought just now reminded him, or maybe he had been thinking too much in the past few days and had been thinking about it for a long time, and he actually came up with another trick.

This idea was not suitable for the Taiyuan Hospital. After thinking about it, he clicked on Wei Mulan's icon and went to discuss it with Lu Xiangsheng.

Unlike Emperor Chongzhen who plotted against him, Huang Taiji at this time simply didn't care about how to deal with Emperor Chongzhen. Rumors in Shenyang City about him changing his country's name, clan name, and imperial system were really harmful to his prestige.

If we want to dispel this rumor, it is actually very simple. Just win a few battles and the rumor will be disproven. But the crux of the problem is, how can the Qing Dynasty win the war under its current situation?

Huang Taiji was really worried. There was no way to explain this rumor. He was so angry. He knew exactly who spread this rumor! But at this time, the Qing Dynasty had just been defeated and could not withstand civil strife. This situation made him a little timid!

In desperation, he invited Fan Wencheng to come over to discuss the matter. For now, only he, a Han Chinese, could discuss this rumor with confidence.

Fan Wencheng naturally heard this rumor and knew that it would be extremely difficult to deal with it. However, when Huang Taiji asked him about this, he had to answer it in order to maintain his status as a think tank.

After pondering for a moment, Fan Wencheng said to Huang Taiji: "Your Majesty, for the current plan, I have three strategies: upper, middle and lower..."

Before he finished speaking, Huang Taiji couldn't help but have a look of surprise on his fat face when he heard what he said, and quickly asked: "Fan Qing, tell me quickly, what are the three strategies? No, no, no, just say the best strategy, I Just take the best approach!"

To be honest, Huang Taiji was a little anxious. He didn't expect that Fan Wencheng could think of three strategies: upper, middle and lower. It really surprised him and made him feel a little desperate.

Seeing Huang Taiji like this, Fan Wencheng couldn't help but feel a little proud, so he imitated the sages and said calmly: "Your Majesty, the best strategy for a slave is actually simple. As long as I, the Qing Dynasty, can beat him firmly." With a great victory, this rumor will be disproven!"

Upon hearing this good idea, Huang Taiji suddenly had the urge to beat him to death!

After get off work, I replaced my wife and asked her to go to the meeting. I stayed with the child, and then went to the hospital for atomization. There were only two updates today. This thing made me think about it. In ancient times, a common cold and fever would probably kill many people!
