Blood from Daming

Chapter 789
Wang Chengen preached to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, Xue Zong and Xue Yun have always been at odds. It is said that Xue Zong plotted Xue Yun's life. It is unreasonable for Xue Zong to go to Datong to seek refuge with Xue Yun, and Xue Yun is no longer in Datong City."

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen said: "How can I say that the Xue family is not harmonious."

Wang Chengen laughed and said: "Your Majesty, there is nothing strange about the century-old Xue family. It is said that the relationship between Xue Yun and his grandfather and father is not very good."

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen immediately became interested and said, "Big Companion, please explain carefully."

Wang Chengen then misappropriated a large sum of gold and silver from Xue Rui to aid the Xue family army in Liaodong, and turned against Xue Yun's concubine, the Chen family. The goods were shot into half-mutilation, and it is said that hundreds of people were besieged and killed. Xue Aoren suspected that the family general Xue Wu did it, and went back to Beijing to sue Xue Yun to his father Xue Rui and so on.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen thought about how the Xue family was in such a mess, and when everyone talked about how Xue Yun was so good, he didn’t expect that even one family could not be handled well. Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen felt better and said: "Big companion, call Luo Yangxing Come, I have something to ask."

Wang Chengen quickly sent a young eunuch to invite Luo Yangxing. Luo Yangxing was walking in the palace, and he rushed to the Wenhua Palace to meet Emperor Chongzhen after a while. After saluting with Emperor Chongzhen, Luo Yangxing stood aside with his hands down and waited for Emperor Chongzhen's orders. Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand to drive away the court ladies and eunuchs, leaving only Emperor Chongzhen, Wang Chengen, and Luo Yangxing in the inner hall.

Emperor Chongzhen asked Luo Yangxing to read Yuan Chonghuan's memorial. After Luo Yangxing finished reading the memorial, he waited for Emperor Chongzhen's questioning. Emperor Chongzhen said, "Yangxing, look at the clues of this memorial."

Luo Yangxing thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, Second General Xiao and Liu are dispatched at the Governor's Mansion of Shanhaiguan, and Xue Zong belongs to Zu Dashou, the commander-in-chief of the Liaodong forward. Judging from the marching route of the mutinous army, even if they want to mutiny, it will be Xue Zong, the second general of Xiao Liu. , It shouldn’t be Xue Zong contacting Second General Xiao Liu, and General Xiao Liu and Xue Zong are in the same situation, how could Second General Xiao Liu join forces with Xue Zong.”

Only then did Emperor Chongzhen know that Xue Jiu, Xue Shi, and Xue Qingyi, Xue Jiu, Xue Shi, and Xue Qingyi, who will be friends with Xiao and Liu Er, Xue Qingyi and Xue Zong are even more deadly rivals. Speaking of which, most likely Yuan Chonghuan and Zu Dashou were involved.

Emperor Chongzhen said: "Cultivate your character, what do you think about the memorial of Xu Yuanlang, the governor of Hangzhou, and Xiong Wencan, the governor of Guangdong and Guangdong?"

Luo Yangxing knew that what the emperor was talking about was that Xu Yuanlang sent a master to himself and Wang Chengen, and that the governor of Guangdong and Guangdong, Xiong Wencan, reported that Xue Yun’s concubine Yan Sanniang was in Hangzhou to command Xue’s army to attack Taiwan according to the report of Zheng Zhilong, the governor of Guangdong and Guangdong. In the hands of the family, Xiong Wencan and Zheng Zhilong reported that Xue Yun had disobedience.

Xu Yuanlang’s appointment as the prefect of Hangzhou was operated when Chongzhen was the king of trust. When Xu Yuanlang went to Wang Chengen and Luo Yangxing, the Emperor Chongzhen acquiesced Xu Yuanlang to stay in the post of Hangzhou prefect in order to appease Xue Yun, but later pulled out the story of Xiong Wencan, Emperor Chongzhen was afraid of both Xu Yuanlang and Yan Sanniang in Hangzhou, and now a bunch of generals related to Xue's family rebelled, so Luo Yangxing secretly recited Amitabha for Xue Yun.

Luo Yangxing said: "Your Majesty, Taiwan Island is isolated overseas, and it will not be possible to get the news prepared there in a short while. My minister found out that the lair of the pirate Zheng Zhilong is still on Taiwan Island, and the island is still there. There is Hongmao Shengfan, I don’t know how much of that pirate Zheng Zhilong’s words are.”

Emperor Chongzhen knocked on the case and said: "If the Xue family occupies Taiwan Island, wouldn't Xue Yun have to become king on his own?"

Luo Yangxing was too low to answer, Emperor Chongzhen said: "Yangxing, you have been in contact with Xue Yun in Datong for a while, what kind of person do you think Xue Yun is."

Luo Yangxing hesitated for a while, and said under the urging of Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, now that Xue Yun has gone to the Tuxietu Khan Department, even if he has any ideas, it will be two or three years later, but at the same time I heard from Xue Yun that he wants to sail overseas to live a carefree life."

Emperor Chongzhen asked: "Oh, Xue Yun still has this theory."

Luo Yangxing said: "Your Majesty, speaking of it, the Xue family moved south on a large scale in the fifth year of Tianqi. It is normal to choose Taiwan Island to settle down. Now there are no important people in the capital of the Xue family."

Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while and said: "Cultivate your character, let Jin Yiwei thoroughly investigate the mutiny in Ningyuan, by the way, pay more attention to the situation of Xue's family."

Luo Yangxing thanked En and withdrew from the inner hall. Emperor Chongzhen secretly thought that if the rebel army from Liaodong fled to Datong Town, and the Xue family army in Datong Town took them in, what should he do? Xue Yun is not an ordinary general. There are people all over Beizhili, Datong, Hangzhou, Taiwan, and North Korea. Hey, it’s really a mouse sacrifice. What has my elder brother, a carpenter, done in recent years?

The mutiny of the Xue family's three thousand disciples put pressure on both the Xue family and Xue Zhuang in the capital, especially Xue Rui who lived in the capital felt that the rain was coming, and the Xue family's business in the capital began to be affected by the unknown truth. Harassment and siege with predictable intentions, Xue family {Xue Ji Silk Cloth} {Sanjiang Huitong} {Xinghua Restaurant} {Huimin Grain Store}, {Wu Ji Rice Shop} are in abnormal business conditions, especially {Hui Min Grain Store} {Wu Ji Rice Shop} In two places, the people who have been loyal to buy cheap food from the Xue family clashed with those who took advantage of the Xue family's incident in Liaodong to make trouble.

{Huimin Grain Store}{Wu Ji Rice Shop} There were six or seven conflicts between the two grain stores from August 23 to 23. More than a hundred people were injured on both sides. Fortunately, no one was killed. On the [-]rd, Jinyiwei intervened in the granary on a large scale to cause disturbances, and the Baoxue faction and the anti-Xue faction died down a little bit.

Jin Yiwei came forward because Xue Zong, the eldest son of Xue's parents, was escorted back to the capital from Jizhen on August 22. He told Luo Yangxing, the commander of Jin Yiwei, the history of the Songshan Mutiny, and accused Yuan Chonghuan, Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang expressed his willingness to take responsibility for the Songshan Mutiny alone for his annexation and discrimination against the guest army.

Luo Yangxing went to the palace to report to Emperor Chongzhen that night. General Xiao Can of the Sichuan Army, General Liu Can of the Shaanxi Army, Xue Jiu, Xue Shi, and Xue Qingyi of the Xue family went to Datong. Zhenzhao led the sect, and Zhao led the sect to escort him back to the capital for disposal.

According to the memorials of Liaodong Mangui, Mao Yuanyi, etc., Emperor Chongzhen confirmed what Xue Zong said. Only then did he know that the Liaodong Army was also full of shady scenes. Fighting for power, repelling and harming guest troops abound. Not to mention, the Liaodong valves were more poisonous in some places than the Xue family army. Emperor Chongzhen was deeply disappointed with Yuan Chonghuan and Zu Dashou.

On that day, Emperor Chongzhen received an ensemble performance by Hu Tingyan, governor of Shaanxi, and Yue Hesheng, governor of Yansui. The momentum of the remaining people spread from Yulin Town to Yan'an Mansion. Emperor Chongzhen was very angry when he saw this belated report.

Emperor Chongzhen sighed, Baishui Wang Er and Zhong Guangdao had not been resolved yet, and Wang Jiayin, Wang Daliang, Gao Yingying, etc. came out again. Send them all back to Xue's mansion for confinement, and send all the returned soldiers to the Beijing camp for custody. As for the mutinous officers and soldiers who went to Datong, let the governor of Datong appease them.

So Emperor Chongzhen ordered Wu Zhiwang, governor of the three sides, to lead Shaanxi governor Hu Tingyan, Yansui governor Yue Hesheng, Yulin town commander Wang Hu and other civil and military officials to work together to appease the people and suppress the bandits. The frontier soldiers in Yulin Town suffered heavy losses. Shaanxi governor Hu Tingyan only had 300 infantry soldiers. It can be seen that there are no soldiers in Shaanxi. If the imperial court does not send reinforcements, Shaanxi will be hopelessly hopeless.

On July [-]th of the first year of Chongzhen, [-] soldiers of the Xue family went around to the Chechen Khan and arrived at the border of Buryatia. Xue Yun got the news from the Chechen Ministry of Kulun City. The special and Buryat troops only surrounded the city of Kulun, and the siege war disappeared after a few days of spring.

A tribe with only over [-] people in the Buryat tribe dared to get involved in the battle for hegemony in the Mongolian desert. They did not understand the backstage of Kulun City and the Tuxietuhan tribe at all. They were tempted by the interests of Lang Shouyi and Lang's only son Pushed the entire Buryat Ministry to perish.

The massacre of the Buryat tribe started from July [-]th to the [-]th for five days. Nearly [-] Buryat herdsmen died, and only [-]% of the Buryats escaped. The Buryat tribe, which basically has no living people, has been surrounded by flames and thick smoke. It may not be easy for this tribe to revive it.

On July 28th, Xue Jiajun, who drove hundreds of thousands of livestock, entered the Tuxietu Khan tribe. First, he encountered a team of 2000 people led by Gu Shihan, the leader of the Heshuo Te tribe. "Bang" the guns were fired, and the soldiers of the Xue family army rushed forward with swords and guns at the same time, and the 2000 troops of the Heshuo Special Division became the lunch of the Xue family army.

With the big fortune in Buryatia and the more than 2000 war horses captured from Heshuote, Xue Yun has not looked down upon him yet. The hundreds of thousands of cattle, sheep, horses, camels and other livestock brought by the Ryat tribe. The herdsmen of the Tushetu Khan tribe knew that the Xue family army was helping their tribe fight, and they were willing to help the Xue family army take care of these animals. Many young adults strongly asked to join For Xue Yun's team, Xue Yun couldn't help the enthusiasm of the herdsmen who had just been liberated by Xue's army, so he had to reluctantly accept more than 1000 Tushetu Khan soldiers. After Xue Yun started this, the army continued to march towards Kulun City Some herdsmen of the Tushetu Khan tribe asked to join the Xue family army. By the time the Xue family army formally encountered the rebel Lang Shouyi, Lang's only son, the Heshuote tribe, and the Buryat tribe, Xue's army had recruited more than 6000 Tushetu Khan warriors.
