I'm really not the carpenter emperor

It was the base camp of the Dongjiang military family, and it was an important military settlement that had been secretly operated for several years. The surprise attack this time was far beyond Mao Wenlong's expectations.

Nurhachi divided his troops and separated the two parts of Tieshan and Phi Island from each other, making it impossible for them to help each other.

Hong Taiji received a secret report from the spies, and thus concluded that Mao Wenlong was most likely in Tieshan, so he offered advice to his father Nurhachi to make people dress up in North Korean army uniforms, falsely claiming to deliver supplies, and raid Tieshan.

In fact, Mao Wenlong really visited his family in Tieshan a few days ago.

When Hong Taiji personally led the slave soldiers to raid Tieshan, he only led Mao Chenglu and a few others out of the island, and escaped by luck.

However, Tieshan Dusi Mao Youjun and other generals were not so lucky. More than a thousand Dongjiang troops fought bloody battles with slave soldiers for several days, and Houjin surrendered several times, but no one was willing to surrender.

In order to avoid being humiliated, when the slave soldiers invaded the island and all the ammunition was exhausted, Mao Youjun killed himself with a sword, martyred his country, and killed the rest of his troops.

After the defenders were killed by the Hou Jin army, Hong Taiji searched the entire island for three days, but still could not find Mao Wenlong. In a fit of rage, he slaughtered all the families of the Dongjiang army and Liao people on the island.

Tieshan fell, and the Dongjiang army was defeated across the board. They couldn't resist Houjin Haoda's offensive at all, so Mao Wenlong had to shrink the defense line and lead his troops back to Phi Island.

Just at this time, news of the emperor's triumphant conquest came, and the Dongjiang army was greatly encouraged.

Within a few days, another spy reported that Xiong Tingbi, the general manager, and Hong Chengchou, the governor, were constantly calling Liaodong generals to raise their accounts and discuss matters, actively preparing to fight back.

Nurhachi was deeply afraid of Xiong Tingbi and Hong Chengchou, fearing that the front line would be empty, so he hurriedly retreated with Hong Taiji, Azig and others, leaving only Amin to stay on the Korean border.

Mao Wenlong realized that the time to counterattack had come, so he used the old practice of "aiding the DPRK in the Wanli Year" as an example, calling Amin a disaster for the DPRK, and went to the sparse to invite the military department to attack the slave nest.

Before the Ministry of War's reply arrived, Mao Wenlong was not idle either. As soon as Hou Jin's army withdrew, he led his troops to counterattack.

Amin, who stayed here, naturally knew that the attack on Phi Island would cost a lot of money, so he divided the camp to encircle the island and planned to besiege it.

When he heard the secret report from the spy that Mao Wenlong led his troops out of the island to attack, he was arrogant, laughed loudly, and said:

"There is nothing to be afraid of when the Dongjiang bandits drive sheep and attack tigers."

A few days later, Mao Wenlong personally led the Dongjiang Army to attack Amin's camp, and defeated Amin's troops under the condition that Lien Chan could not get any rest for several days.

Amin was beaten and ran away, escaped from the area of ​​Pidao, and turned south into North Korea without further orders from Nurhachi.

The disarmament of North Korea is even worse than that of the Central Plains Guards.

Amin and his team drove straight into Pyongyang, where the Pyongyang defenders surrendered. On the way, a reinforcement from Anzhou heard that Pyongyang had fallen, and collapsed without a fight.

The king of Joseon, Gwanghae Lord Li Hui and his ministers fled all the way south and moved to the Jianghua area.

The news of Mao Wenlong's request for aid to North Korea and Li Hui's request for Daming to help North Korea repel Amin spread to the capital two days before and after.

All of a sudden, the ruling and opposition parties were clamoring.

Chapter 141 Who Makes You Thick-skinned

After a few days, sunlight poured into the West Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace.

A small seal made of ivory is coated with oil and grease, and it is held in the emperor's hand, and there is no movement on his face when he keeps playing with it.

"Denglai Governor Yuan Keli played:

The slave thief invaded North Korea's Yizhou, and the city fell. The temperance envoy killed all the following. The slave chieftain was frightened by the Liao army and retreated to his lair. "

"Anzhou's temperance envoy Nan Yixing, defense envoy Jin Jun and dozens of generals and officials, and tens of thousands of Korean soldiers and civilians, there is no doubt that they were slaughtered."

"Pyongyang and Huangzhou collapsed without a fight. Amin has arrived in Zhonghe, and he rode in and out of Huangfeng..." Chaofu read Yuan Keli's chapters and turned to pick up the Korean national book.

"Li Hun, the King of Aiming Korea, gave the suzerain emperor:

To North Korea, the Ming Dynasty is the country of parents, the country of the king, and the country of the suzerain, and there are "two great graces".The grace of great creation, the grace of re-creation.

Now the slave riders have arrived in Huangzhou and settled in Pingshan, gradually forcing Wang Jing.I also ask Daming to save the Korean people from danger..."

The friendship between North Korea and Ming Dynasty far exceeds that of the general suzerain and tributary country.

The grace of great creation refers to the 25th year of Hongwu, the Korean general Li Chenggui abolished the Korean clan to stand on his own, and implemented the basic national policy of "big things" for Ming Dynasty.

After being recognized by the people, Li Chenggui asked the Ming Dynasty to grant the country title.

Taizu of the Ming Dynasty named the country "Korea" with "the name of Dongyi, but North Korea is beautiful, and it came from far away, so it can be named as the ancestor. Titian herdsmen, descendants of Yongchang".

Since then, for nearly 300 years, North Korea has always referred to itself as "Ariyo Joseon State" in its credentials, which is extremely obedient.

As for the grace of reinvention, it is said that in the 20th year of Wanli, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who had unified Japan, invaded Korea.

Nearly 20 Japanese troops invaded North Korea, with hundreds of boats, divided into nine armies, and landed in Busan, North Korea.

Although the combat power of the Korean army 30 years ago was stronger than it is now, it was far inferior to the Japanese army fighting during the Warring States Period.

In just three months, the Japanese army occupied almost the entire territory of North Korea.At that time, the king of North Korea, Li Yan, saw that his country was about to perish, so he asked Daming for help.

Emperor Wanli resisted all opinions and decided to send elite soldiers to help North Korea at the request.

The Wanli Aid Korea campaign lasted for seven years. In the end, the allied forces of the Ming Dynasty wiped out the Japanese army in Lulianghai when Toyotomi Hideyoshi died of illness and the Japanese army retreated.

During this aid to the DPRK, the Ming Dynasty lost hundreds of thousands of teachers and lost millions in salary.

Now the attitude towards Daming in North Korea is no longer what the king can say, and the people of North Korea are flocking to Daming.

It's very simple, if there is a king who doesn't obey Daming, then they will continue to coup and revolt, and replace the king who obeys Daming.

Zhu Youxiao lowered his eyes and stared at the small seal in his hand. After listening to Wang Chaofu, the following ministers talked about whether to aid the dynasty, and expressed their opinions.

Since returning to the palace, Zhu Youxiao didn't sleep as peacefully as when he was in the barracks.

North Korea cannot be forced to go backwards, this is the bottom line.

Although North Korea's armaments are abolished and it has done nothing in major events, it can also play a role in supporting the Dongjiang River and connecting Liao and Zuo after all.

If this time, as in history, he was beaten by Amin and turned to Houjin, Dongjiang wanted to open up the situation again, it would be even more difficult.

Zhu Youxiao's idea coincides with Liaodong Economic Strategy and Liaodong Governor.

During the period of leaving Beijing, Wei Zhongxian wrote the trivial matters on his behalf for daily approval, and then reported them to the camp for Zhu Youxiao's imperial review. Some important memorials were kept in China and not published.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao picked up a copy of the inscription Wei Zhongxian left on the imperial case, his eyes moved slightly, it was written by the two Liaodong.

"Liaodong Economic Strategy Xiong Tingbi and Governor Hong Chengchou jointly played:

To aid the North, the army should not be moved lightly, but it can be quickly dispatched to the side, attacking its emptiness, rushing to its lair, making the slaves tied head to tail, and unable to save them.In one fell swoop, North Korea can be completely destroyed, and the group of captives can be destroyed.

Our army has Yuan Gong in the south, Mao Shuai in the east, and the Mongolian Chahar tribe in the north to help, thinking that if Ningyuan joins forces with Dongjiang, it will be an act of attacking Huanglong while taking advantage of the situation. "

The Minister of the Ministry of War changed three in the first year of Tianqi.

First Sun Juxiang, then Zhang Heming, a member of the Donglin Party, and now Cui Chengxiu, who flattered Wei Zhongxian and took the position.

Zhu Youxiao knew a little about this person, but he didn't have great ability, but like other Wei Dang, he spent a lot of hard work in observing the holy will.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao turned his head slightly and asked, "What is the opinion of the Ministry of War?"

Asking the Ministry of War is naturally asking Cui Chengxiu.

The emperor did not refuse, Cui Chengxiu also took a step forward and said:

"Qizou Your Majesty, I believe that the strategy of Xiong Tingbi and Hong Chengchou is feasible. This arrangement is extremely impressive, but Ning Yuan..."

"What about Ningyuan?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

Cui Chengxiu bowed his body and said: "Yuan Chonghuan, who was responsible for the military preparation of Ningyuan, and Sun Chengzong, who was a counselor with Guangning, always advocated sticking to the land of Liao and expanding the army to recruit troops."

As he spoke, he took out a document and presented it:

"This is Yuan Chonghuan's fifth request for payment. He said that the Liao people will guard the land of Liao, expand Ningma and [-] infantry, and build a city to defend."

"For the first four rounds, the minister criticized and went back..."

"You did a good job." Zhu Youxiao received the document, glanced at it for a few times, and then fell to the ground and said:

"Decree to the Ministry of Household Affairs to immediately send people to Tianjin at night, and the rater will supervise the payment of the salary. Deng Laike will help Dongjiang in the future, and dispatch it with funds. There is no delay."

Cui Chengxiu still had half a word in his throat, obviously lowered most of his voice, and said anxiously:

"Ning Yuan also asks for payment, Your Majesty, look—"

"give him."

Zhu Youxiao nodded, smiling like a warm spring breeze, and suddenly his eyes were like sharp knives, and then he lowered his head, twirling the small ivory seal with his slender fingers, and said:

"Yuan Chonghuan expects money, and Ningyuan's soldiers are also said to be able to fight, so he should trust him deeply. Sun Chengzong is thoughtful and prudent, and there will be no mistakes in those who value him."

"Soldiers are innocent, waiting for pay, the Ministry of War should reconsider from the commander."

The words seemed indifferent, but there was a hidden murderous intent.

The emperor praised Sun Chengzong aloofly, but he was not commensurate with the "emperor teacher". Between the lines, it was directly decided that Yuan Chonghuan was Sun Chengzong's disciple.

He also said that the reason why he relied on Yuan Chonghuan was all because of Sun Chengzong's strong recommendation.

Cui Chengxiu was terrified when he heard that, Wei Wei agreed, and not long after leading the ministers to retreat, Wei Zhongxian cautiously stepped into the warm pavilion and asked in a low voice:

"My lord, the servants have already caught the assassin who assassinated the empress last month, and have sorted out the results of the interrogation..."

Because of the experience of the last time, Wei Zhongxian was not in a hurry when speaking, but stopped shortly, waiting for the emperor to speak later.

Zhu Youxiao closed his eyes and meditated for a while, then heaved a long sigh.

"Leave it here, I'll see later."

Wei Zhongxian gently placed the notebook on the imperial case, waved the people away, squeezed the emperor's shoulders with moderate strength, and said with a wry smile:

"The emperor's personal conquest this time has caused misery to the servants."

Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao was noncommittal and said:

"You have a thick skin and a thick face, and you don't pay attention to reputation. Let them talk about it. But the people below, you have to watch out, don't worry about you, a factory official, they dance very well."

Wei Zhongxian said yes, and planned to go back and find out which bad boy was pretending to be thirteen, so as to recruit himself.

After thinking for a while, he hesitated again:

"Bingke Dao has long been dissatisfied with Yuan Chonghuan's avoidance of the war. The emperor's teacher is so protective, and the emperor has long wanted to replace him. How can he pay Ning Yuan this time?"

"First, the soldiers are innocent, and second..." Zhu Youxiao sneered and said, "It's too late!"

"When I returned to Beijing, I just received a secret report from the Pidao military supervisor, saying that the slave chieftain has returned to his old nest and is preparing his troops. Within a few days, the first attack will be either Shenyang or Liaoyang."

"Except for Ning Yuan, some of the rest of the soldiers can't move, and some of them are too late even if they are sent immediately, so they can only rely on Yuan Chonghuan."

Chapter 142 The Wang Wenyan case

Wei Zhongxian thinks about it too.

Although he didn't know about military affairs, he felt that he was much better than that idiot Zhang Heming. After a little analysis, he got a rough idea.

Judging from the current situation, the danger of North Korea has not yet disappeared, and if there is another war between Liao and Shen, it will become a situation of conflict between East and West.

It's not that Xiong Tingbi and Hong Chengchou don't know the details of Yuan Chonghuan, and it should be a deliberate decision to ask Ning Yuan soldiers to support Dongjiang.

He was still thinking carefully, Zhu Youxiao remembered Yuan Chonghuan's words just now, his fingers kept tapping on the table, and his eyes moved slightly.

Without the ministers, he no longer pretended. Zhu Youxiao showed an expression that he had never seen in front of Cui Chengxiu and other court officials, and said in a deep voice:

"Later Jin envoy Li Yongfang came to discuss peace. Everyone in the court knows that this person is cunning, he is a complete treacherous person, and cannot be trusted."

"Yuan Chonghuan, the only one, was played by Li Yongfang in the palm of his hand. He believed this and wanted to negotiate a peace with him. What else did he say to buy time and build Linghe City..."

"At present, the war is imminent. This is a situation that anyone with a discerning eye can see. Even if there is a peace negotiation, will the Jurchen barbarians abide by this rule?"

"Yuan Chonghuan abandoned North Korea and Dongjiang, deliberately built the city, and advocated retreating to Ning and Jin, always talking about the Ningjin defense line and the Ningjin defense line!"

"Xiong Tingbi is still there, Liao and Shen are still alive, and retreating to Ning Jin at this time, does he think I am a three-year-old child?"

"If you give him 600 million grain and salary, build the big and small Linghe Rivers, and recruit Guanning soldiers to guard them, will the whole Liao Dynasty be restored?"

"It's thanks to him to say such nonsense words again and again!"

Zhu Youxiao sneered up to this point, was silent for a while, but then laughed a few times, which made Wei Zhongxian's hair stand on end, and said:

"Wei Zhongxian, I was 'blinded' by you again this time."

"I listened to your persuasion, and issued an order to urge Yuan Chonghuan to respond to Dongjiang. Whether it's a mule or a horse, let him come out for a walk!"

"He's really capable, and it's not impossible for me to keep him!"

Wei Zhongxian didn't persuade him to say this. He understood what the emperor meant before he finished speaking.
