Chapter Eighty-ninth Life
Although Jiang Zhe was a scholar, he was not a scholar in the traditional sense. The way of Confucius and Mencius was not that important in his eyes.
Zheng Zhilong's view of Kong's family was very disrespectful to Kong's family, but Jiang Zhe was not only not annoyed, but he agreed deeply.
I also agree with Zheng Zhilong's analysis.
How similar is Huang Taiji outside the pass and the Qing Dynasty outside the pass to the Wanyan Jurchen five hundred years ago?
Wanyan Juzhen Meng'an Mouke, the Eight Banners of Manchu, Han and Mongolian in the Qing Dynasty, they destroyed the main military forces of the Central Plains dynasty, and were invincible. The soldiers of the Central Plains ran away again and again, and were frightened by the news.
What's worse is that the Ming Dynasty could not see Yue Han and other generals at the moment, but the peasant uprising inside was still in full swing, and the situation was far worse than that of Zhao Song in the past.
Zhu Ming's situation is even worse.
There are also some Han people who served the Qing Dynasty, and they not only had martial arts but also literary skills. In this regard, Huangtai Ji is more advantageous than Wanyan Juzhen.
Huang Taiji stipulated that as early as the sixth year of Tiancong, all the children of the Beile ministers were under fifteen years old and over eight years old were ordered to study.
Although compared with the Jurchen savages who had just rushed out of the white mountains and black waters, the killing of Han'er by the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty was even worse than that of the Jin soldiers, they used "reading" to add a very gorgeous coat to themselves.
Before the Qing Dynasty officially entered the pass, according to the current Ming and Qing forces, the Qing army was really going to march to the Central Plains. How could the Ming army resist? Their ability has been confirmed after several breakthroughs in the borders.
Jiang Zhe naturally didn't know that the Ming Dynasty was going to take his last breath, but he understood that the Qing Dynasty had the strength and opportunity to enter the Central Plains. Since Huang Taiji had the strength to enter the Central Plains, would he still not be able to bear it? Will he not have that thought?
This is impossible.
The flower world and the country of the Central Plains are so great that it is attractive to the Tartars. It goes without saying that it is self-evident.
Therefore, he agreed with Zheng Zhilong's statement that the Tartars would not take the Qufu Konglin like this. It was very likely that they would just surround him and not hit him. Abatai would not do anything to Konglin.
Because no one who is determined to be the world will defeat the Kong family, but will only hold it high and respect it.
"Students have met the general manager." This was the first time Jiang Zhe ran around overnight. After arriving in Dongping, he would not say whether he had frozen or not. The sides of his thighs were burning and painful.
"Your Majesty said you had something to pass it to Benxian, so let's listen." Hong Chengchou was mentally prepared for Zheng Zhilong's rejection and was not angry. However, Zheng Zhilong accused him of not doing his best and not optimistic about Abatai, so that the good situation in Yanzhou was ruined, which made him a little angry.
It is true that he is the commander of the Ming army of the mountains, but the Ming army of the mountains seems to be under his command, so how can he really listen to him? It was the case in Songjin at the time, let alone now?
He can still be as directed as an arm, and trusted as a person. From beginning to end, there are only two troops, Cao Bianjiao and Wang Tingchen.
"My boss said that the siege of Qufu seems to be critical, but it is not. The descendants of Kong's family should be as safe as Mount Tai." Jiang Zhe endured the pain in his legs and squeezed out a smile and said.
Hong Chengchou was shocked. What does Zheng Zhilong mean? "Why can't Benxian understand? What does Zheng Zhilong mean?"
Jiang Zhe smiled, "Why should you be humble? You have been promoting military and political affairs for many years, and you have been in the inner and outer gates. You know the truth and reality of the Ming Dynasty. The Zhu family's internal and external affairs are in trouble, and it is really time to be on the verge of treacherous things, at least in this Jiangbei area. And the Jianlu had a wolfish ambition, and Huang Taiji had proclaimed himself emperor early, so he could see that he had already entered the Central Plains ambition.
How could such a person take rash actions against the Kong family in Qufu?
The student said bravely, I'm afraid that when Abatai was ordered to lead troops into the Frontier, Huang Taiji had already told him."
"It's really a courageous fight, it's really a courageous fight. What a crazy fan, he actually made such a ridiculous statement." Hong Chengchou glanced at Jiang Zhe deeply. This statement was really something he couldn't do, and if he thought about it carefully, it was really insightful.
However, he must not agree with it in the face.
"Seeing that you are also a scholar, why don't you know how the word "Jing" is written? I believe that you are young and ignorant, and today's sayings are nonsense, so I won't bother with you, and I won't leave with me."
Hong Chengchou slapped the table and was furious.
Jiang Zhe also looked frightened and retreated in panic.
Anyway, the meaning has been translated. In short, everyone is a good actor.
In this way, time passed day by day, and the Qing army continued to besiege Qufu, but Hong Chengchou continued to besiege in Dongpingzhou, and public opinion was in an uproar. Emperor Chongzhen issued an order to Zhou Yanru, asking him to urge Hong Chengchou to quickly dismantle the siege of Qufu.
"Your Majesty repeatedly urged Hong Hengjiu to move his troops. Could it be that he wanted to burn the last available soldier in the pass?" Jiang Dejing said with a sad face when he saw Emperor Chongzhen.
Emperor Chongzhen was furious and glared at Jiang Dejing and said, "What does Jiang Qing mean? Do you dare to ridicule the king? Do you think that my Shang Fang sword is not good?"
Jiang Dejing's mouth twitched. Emperor Chongzhen has cut down the heads of the governors over the years? Shang Fangjian was so sharp. "How dare the old minister try the law? I just hope that Your Majesty should put the ancestors first and do not make a false reputation, and force Hong Heng to fight quickly."
"Although Hong Chengchou's troops were numerous, how could he be the opponent of the Tartars in field battles? Once they were defeated, the court would have no more available troops."
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he twitched his cheek hard. It was a bad thing to say that he was too much. What a fictional reputation?
"Qufu is the place where the descendants of Confucius Saints are located. Konglin is located in the tomb of the saints. Not to mention that it was burned by Jianlu, it would lead to a big mistake. Even if Jianlu moved a piece of soil, he would also call me..." Emperor Chongzhen was also a person who wanted face.
"But if the army collapses, there will be no more soldiers available in the court. When the bandits come to the north again and the Jianlu enters the Central Plains again, how can the Ming Dynasty be preserved?"
Jiang Dejing advised bitterly.
Emperor Chongzhen was speechless immediately, and the hall was silent.
Half an hour later.
Jiang Dejing walked out of the Forbidden City and looked up at the starry sky in the sky, as if he felt he was being watched by a pair of eyes. Tonight he was secretly entering the pilgrimage, and outsiders didn't know it. But heaven knows the earth, heaven knows the earth...
Zhou Yanru didn't dare to go to Dong Lu, and his legs were trembling as he looked at Emperor Chongzhen's order.
"The army is hard, and the prime minister is old, how can he bear this kind of suffering? In the opinion of a villain, it is better to find someone to go there." The disciple Dong Ting said.
"Who can take on such a big task?" Zhou Yanru asked hurriedly as if he had grabbed a straw.
"What does Prime Minister think of Wu Changshi? He relies on Prime Minister and survives. If Prime Minister has something to do, Wu Changshi can do it well? He dare not do his best."
"Wu Changshi is only a fifth-rank, how can he defeat Hong Chengchou?"
"Prince, although Lord Wu is a fifth-rank doctor, he is a fifth-rank doctor in the Ministry of Personnel. How could he be compared with ordinary fifth-rank? He is also a general of the Donglin and the leader of the Fushe Society. He is famous all over the world and has prestige in the clear stream. Isn't this military incident also involved the temple of the Saints, which is appropriate?"
Zhou Yanru agreed deeply, and Zhou Yanru was convinced and instead asked someone to grab Wu Changshi to the jar.
The latter was a general of the Donglin and one of the founders of Fushe. Zhou Yanru was highly valued after his resumption and served as the ward of the Wenxuan Department of the Ministry of Personnel. Although his official position was not very large, he was in charge of the transfer of officials, and he had equal ranks and power. It is said that less than a year after he performed his post, he had already had a huge amount of stolen money. Therefore, he had a good courage. In addition, as Dong Ting said, Wu Changshi was indeed unable to live without Zhou Yanru, so he rushed to Baoding when he heard the news.
As a person who enjoys the shade under the big tree of Zhou Yanru, Wu Changshi has done a lot of evil. Without Zhou Yanru, he may even be unable to save his life. Once he succeeds, he appoints his personal personalities and offends too many people.
At this time, it was related to Zhou Yanru's black veil on his head. How dare he not do his best?
"Hong Hengjiu is full of courageous people, but Zheng Zhilong is worth it. Unfortunately, although he killed thousands of heads of the Tartars in the previous battle, he was also seriously injured and has not yet recovered."
Zhou Yanru had nonsense about the battle situation. He said nonsense. Wu Changshi was timid and thought he was remembered in his heart. But after leaving Baoding, he immediately changed his appearance as a military supervisor and headed straight for Hong Chengchou's army.
On the way, I met a team from the Ministry of War, but I was going to Yanzhou to verify the head level. Dai Jiaji beheaded a thousand-level battle. This was all true Tartars, and Zheng Zhilong's contribution would be remarkable.
In Yanzhou Prefecture, Yuan Shizhong had already led the remaining troops back to Teng County, but he pretended to be deaf and dumb to Hong Chengchou's call. Although the troops were stationed in Teng County, they were expected to escape from the Qing army.
Hong Chengchou knew that Zheng Zhilong could not count on him, so he had no hope for Xiao Yuanying at all. But no matter what, the sun rose as usual and the moon set as usual. Day after day, the Ming army braved the cold and rushed from Dongpingzhou to Yanzhou Prefecture. On the way, Wu Changshi had already arrived in the army.
Hong Chengchou felt that he saw Ma Shaoyu and Zhang Ruoqi again.
In the Battle of Songjin, Hong Chengchou was polite, while Chen Xinjia, Minister of War, advocated a quick battle and quick decision on the grounds that the army was difficult to get more soldiers and urged Hong Chengchou to advance. Emperor Chongzhen was also convinced by him and ordered Hong Chengchou to advance in an order. Ma Shaoyu was the head of the Ministry of War, and Zhang Ruoqi was the doctor of Fang, and was sent to the army to supervise the decisive battle.
When the army arrived at Ziyang, Hong Chengchou raised a large tent and beat the drums to gather the generals to discuss matters. There were waves of noise and rushing out of the tent.
There have been long debates in the army about the rescue of Qufu, and no one wants to be the first. Even Cao Bianjiao and Wang Tingchen are unwilling to die for the Kong family. Does the latter have anything to do with them?
Moreover, the Ming army could not defeat the Qing army in front of the field. This is an ironclad fact. How dare you go to Qufu to die?
Wu Changshi was a famous scholar in the Shilin City and a general in the Donglin City. In the fourth year of Tianqi, he organized a resumption of the society with eleven famous scholars including Zhang Cai, Yang Tingshu, Yang Yi, Gu Menglin, Zhu Wei, etc. He was a very traditional scholar.
The traditional scholars of this era can never look down on the military man, even if he carries a heavy burden. After a few days of coming to the army, he despised all the generals under Hong Chengchou's tent and just urged Hong Chengchou to march!
