Chapter Seventy-Five: The Unemployed Pawn, The Change of Yourself!!

The world was in an uproar, and people of all eras were shocked!

Chongzhen is actually a generation of diligent kings!

Immediately, people sighed, thinking of Chongzhen’s age, full of governing state affairs, his hair turned gray, his eyes deepened, and he sighed that he was born at the wrong time!

“It’s a pity, he is facing the terminally ill Daming, and the world that is about to fall down!”

Li Shimin said solemnly.

“Sweep away the castration party and settle the wrongs! Sun Chengzong, Yuan Chonghuan and other anti-Jin generals were once again used to take a posture of appeasement against the rebel army! I have to say that he did a really good job. ”

Liu Che covered his eyebrows.

“Twenty-three years after the death of Wanli, seven years have passed since the apocalypse, so is there still seventeen years left after Chongzhen ascended the throne? Alas…… Could it be that Daming really died on Chongzhen. ”

People suddenly felt a little uneasy, this young man had a lingyun ambition, climbed to the treasure at a young age, took Kuangfu social welfare as his own responsibility, and actively dealt with internal and external troubles.

Is it really a bamboo basket empty?

“This is our good children and grandchildren!”

Emperor Hongwu’s eyes were slightly red, and his hand trembled as he pointed at Zhu Youzhen, the Chongzhen Emperor who was diligent in serving the country, and sighed sadly.

Wanli is in government, Taichang is too short, and the apocalypse is not doing business! Daming was carried on Chongzhen!

Daming is in his hands, and it is already a mess!

Isn’t it hoped that you can save the fallen Daming?

“Good, good, good!”

Even if he guessed that Dao Daming might die above Chongzhen, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the sensible and stubborn Chongzhen, and still said three good in a row!

Xu Da, Liu Bowen, Tang He and the others also shook their heads. It shouldn’t be!

[Emperor Chongzhen’s plan is very beautiful, but the reality is very cold.

The Ming Dynasty of 200 million trillion trillion was a relatively low private tax rate, but at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the people were poor and the country was not rich!

In the Ming Dynasty, the gentry were exempted from taxes, and many gentry encroached on the land, sheltered tenants, accumulated a small amount, and the wealth of the imperial government decreased day by day.

Coupled with the extremely bad clan system, the prince attacked the county king, the county prince attacked the Zhenguo general, the Fengguo general attacked the auxiliary state general, and the auxiliary state general attacked the Fengguo general, and the level went down.

Over the past few hundred years, the Zhu family has formed a huge scale. However, in order to prevent the clan from interfering in government, the Ming court kept them in the royal palace in the way of raising idlers, spending countless people’s fat and people’s anointment.

The financial distress at the end of the Ming Dynasty was due to the fact that most of the gold and silver were gathered in a small number of hands, forming their own interest chain!

Clan King! Official gentry! Merchant! Eunuch! Foreigners!

Chongzhen had no money in his hands, and when he took the throne, he only found that it was already empty.

Yang He wants to recruit the rebels, and without having to fight, he can calm the civil rebellion with a knife soldier! Chongzhen was very supportive and agreed, gritted his teeth and pooled 100,000 silver to hand over to Yang He.

With Yang He’s efforts, the recruitment was effective, and almost all the rebels in Shaanxi accepted Zhao’an, except for those who died in battle!

However, 100,000 silver, can support geometry? A drop in the bucket, less than one-tenth of the calm, thrown to Shaanxi, just a splash, a little wave!

Yang He reluctantly asked Chongzhen again to allocate money and grain to support Shaanxi.

Chongzhen called on the imperial court to donate money, and the king of the United Clan once again donated 50,000 silver and 20,000 stone of grain, but in addition, there was no more!

A month later, the appeasement’s wealth was exhausted! As soon as God surrendered and rebelled, those who had already appeased rose up again!

The trilateral governor Yang He was implicated and sent to prison for punishment! As it turned out, it had to be done!

Chongzhen reverted to Hong Chengzhuo as governor to suppress the uprising. Hong Chengzhuo, who had a good counterinsurgency in Shaanxi, changed the policy of his boss Yang He, and he “encircled and suppressed with all his strength” at home, in order to suppress Jian and “Fu”, and attacked Shaanxi in a big way!

Only by first annihilating and then appeasing can we stabilize the situation and ensure that the surrendered army will not rebel again!

The appeasement policy has failed! The birds were speechless, and the people were sluggish.

Unexpectedly, the strategy that Emperor Chongzhen and Yang He insisted on appeasement, did not start to act, and the sky was broken.

The imperial court can’t make ends meet, the treasury is empty, how to appease?

To use the word light curtain to describe it, a drop in the bucket! Raise the soup to stop boiling!

“Alas, Yang He is not without the wisdom of a prophet, but in fact, the Ming Court has no money and food to appease, so why not? What’s more, Emperor Chongzhen didn’t have that much determination and firmness! ”

“Do you want to quell the uprising without moving the swordsmen? Think too beautifully, if you can live, who wants to be a thief? They have only become victims because of natural and man-made disasters, and if there is enough money to return them to life, who would want to risk rebellion? ”

“Hmph, is there no money in the imperial court? Chongzhen has no money, and lives tightly! Aren’t everyone else without money? The light curtain makes it clear that real money and silver have gone there! ”

“Since it can’t be appeased, then simply wipe it out! If you can’t feed a large number of hungry people, then kill it once and for all! This Hong Chengyu can ah, the transformation is fast enough! ”

Countless people saw the progress of the light curtain and sighed!

Cao Cao experienced the Yellow Turban Uprising and naturally felt something: “If there is no way out?” If there is nowhere to return? Who wants to embark on the path of rebellion? Then again, if the country is rich and has enough food, how can there be an uprising that sweeps thousands of miles? ”

King Wei asked questions continuously, and the others nodded in agreement! Daming, Hongwu!

Zhu Yuanzhang showed a cold smile: “Where did the money go!?” Merchant? Gentry? Clan Domain? Eunuch! ”

“What are these things, dare to hollow out my Daming roots!”

He roared like a fierce tiger, frightened like him, and naturally knew the consequences of not even having money and food in the hands of the imperial court!

The imperial court is in embarrassment, so what is there to save the world?

“Good children and grandchildren, you have been pitted by them!”

The cold eyes glanced at the group of ministers under the hall!

He hated it the most in his life, officials hid dirt, businessmen were unkind, and eunuchs interfered in the government of the dynasty! But in the end, Daming died in their hands!

[Since the Chongzhen Emperor has already laid down the policy of focusing on suppression, he will implement it! ]

In the second year of Chongzhen, Chongzhen, in view of the many drawbacks of the post station system, began to carry out reforms, cut unnecessary post pawns, and streamline institutions!

At this time, a person in Mizhi County was unemployed, and he was Li Zicheng!

Li Zicheng lost his job, owed debts, and could not pay the debts of the local gentry, so he was accused of going to the county government and ordered to be executed!

Li Zicheng led the people to revolt, killed the county order, raised the banner against the Ming, and defected to Wang Zuogui! In the same year, Zhang Xianzhong gathered eighteen peasants in his hometown to oppose the Ming Dynasty, nicknamed the “Eight Kings”

Run under the most influential Wang Jiayin in Shaanxi! The two, caught up in the wave of uprising!

Fierce battles with the encircled officials and troops in Shaanxi!

The rebel army was in danger, and it was dangerously defended; And the new Shaanxi Governor Hong Chengzhuo pressed on step by step to suppress the uprising!

For a time, the rebel army fell into the downwind!

At the end of the second year of Chongzhen, the situation changed abruptly, and the rebel army and the official army were fighting in Shaanxi for days!

God, collapsed!

The Jurchens outside the pass, under the leadership of Huang Taiji, regarded the Guanning defense line as nothing, borrowed the grassland, and blatantly entered the customs! 】

“Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, the two of them have ascended to the world!”

People in the chaotic times at the end of the Ming Dynasty sighed with emotion for these two rebellious twins! Now two people, one dominates the northwest, whales swallow the world; One sits in Shuzhong, calls himself the emperor!

But back then, both of them were ants that couldn’t stand a step! The times are strong!

“Li Zicheng…”

Chongzhen stared at Li Zicheng deadly, and laughed self-deprecatingly! I never expected that Li Zicheng’s rebellion was just a casual stroke of him!

“Oh, the world is now! Even if there is no Li Zicheng, there will be Zhang Zicheng, Ma Zicheng! Taizu, it’s time for Daming to become thinner! ”

Chongzhen cried, reliving this period of time again, it was simply inch-hearted! When he first ascended the throne, he was ambitious and wanted to save the Ming Dynasty; Right now? Then he just wants to find a place to cry!

Have the heart to do things, return to the sky!

“Enter the customs, after Jin enters the customs! Isn’t the Guanning defense line still not broken!? ”

“They are using the grassland to bypass the Liaoxi corridor!”

Countless people exclaimed, never expected that the Jurchens would dare to enter the customs and fight!

“Jurchen, too arrogant!”

Li Shimin, Li Jing snorted coldly! Moreover, this aggression is too strong, single-handedly picking out thousands of miles of Shenzhou in a corner, and taking the initiative to attack?

“The detour will take time, and what if the Ming army attacks from Liaoxi and pinches its tail?”

Li Shimin thought carefully!

[Huang Taiji led the Jurchens to enter the customs, all the way like a broken bamboo, even Kemalanyu, Panjiakou, Hongshan Pass and other key points! ]

In an instant, it approached the Jingshi and the world shook!

Chongzhen, the hundred officials were terrified, and killing them would not have thought that the Jurchens would bypass the Guanning defense line!

The Guanning Defensive Line, which was built up by millions of taels, and the army built up by the Liao salaries sent out every year, were completely useless at this moment.

Chongzhen closely transferred soldiers and horses from all over the world to guard the Beijing Division!

Knowing that the Qing army was coming, Shanhaiguan general Zhao led 4,000 cavalry to rescue, but was rejected from the city, and then the Jurchens took the opportunity to kill, and the two sides fought in the wild, Zhao led the sect to fall from the arrow, died heroically, and the whole army was destroyed.

Zunhua fell, and Inspector Wang Yuanya hanged the country and was martyred!

The Jurchen soldiers came to the city and actually began to try to attack the Jing division.

Chongzhen, with the seventy-year-old Sun Chengzong as his commander, was responsible for the defense of the Jing Division and the command of King Qin’s army, and fought against the Jurchens.

When Ning Yuan’s Yuan Chonghuan heard the news, he urgently dispatched more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to rush all the way to Jixian, and the two sides fought at Deshengmen!

The Guan Ning Army and the Eight Flags Army fought on a par with each other, and there were casualties to each other, and the Jin people retreated, but Yuan Chonghuan, who immediately entered the city to be rewarded, was imprisoned by Chongzhen and put in prison!

When Guan Ningjun heard that the boss was imprisoned, he immediately made a disturbance and scattered and fled! Huang Taiji heard the sound, killed the horse gun, and once again came to the city to besiege the Jing division. Chongzhen sent Man Gui to battle, and Man Gui died in battle, and his subordinates died or surrendered, and the whole army was destroyed.

Since then, no one has been able to stop the Jurchens from entering the customs and looting.

Emperor Taiji led the Jurchens to plunder along the road, which lasted for several months, and returned safely to Liaodong!

Subsequently, Chongzhen fell for Emperor Taiji’s counterplot and executed Yuan Chonghuan Lingchi, and his family was exiled for 3,000 li!

History says: The change of the self! The first time the Jurchens broke through!

Only two years after Chongzhen took the throne, Yang He in the Lord was imprisoned for punishment, Yuan Chonghuan outside the Lord died and his family was destroyed, and all plans were shattered! 】!
