The back door of my house can last until the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 173 Casting the Bait
"This Sun Jie, I really don't understand what is going on in his mind. Could it be that he really can't restrain his subordinates?!"

Zhou Yanru looked at the news in his hand, his face was like black charcoal.

"It's not right, I'm stunned!"

Suddenly he slapped the message in his hand on the table, his eyes brightened instantly.

"How did I forget about this, why do I still expect him to be great, I should expect him to die.

Since he can't even restrain the interior of Shaanxi, it means that he doesn't have that much control over Shaanxi.

If at this time, if some means are imposed on him, will it directly cause him to collapse from the inside? "

Zhou Yanru's eyes were full of bright lights.

If this is the case, it can just solve Sun Jie's serious problem.

Here comes the question, if Sun Jie is really eliminated, how can he go south and learn from Cao Cao?
If Sun Jie didn't push the capital, wouldn't all his previous plans be in vain?

Now, Zhou Yanru was caught in a dilemma again.

In the end, he was stunned to hold back his approach to Chongzhen, and aimed at Sun Jie.

Class enemies are the biggest.

First clean up Sun Jie, and then rely on the gentry all over the world to slowly grind Chongzhen to death.

Compared with Zhou Yanru, Chongzhen didn't have so many worries.

He also received the news from Shaanxi. Sitting in the middle of the imperial study, he read the news over and over again.

A pair of eyes narrowed into a slit.

"This Sun Jie, really don't understand that the gentry is the cornerstone of the world? Anyone in the world can be killed, but these gentry cannot be killed.

You, you are still too young, and you still have some unclear things! " Chongzhen shook his head and leaned back on the chair, much more relaxed.

Sun Jie has not openly raised the flag of rebellion, and has not openly rebelled.

But in Chongzhen's eyes, he was a rebel.

Rebellion is not based on names, but on actions.

They almost scooped up the court officers and soldiers. Isn’t this a rebellion?
After being the emperor for so many years, he has a clear understanding of the power structure of the Ming Dynasty.

Although the emperor is high above, but in this world, the most powerful people are these gentry.

Taxes in Jiangnan are getting less and less every year, but what can he do, don't he have to endure it?

If there is any dissatisfaction, these gentry will shout "compete with the people for profit".

After being the emperor for so many years, he knows very well what these gentlemen in the world look like.

In his opinion, Sun Jie now is tantamount to digging his own grave and cutting his own way of life.

If you can take advantage of his unpreparedness at this time, and attack him by surprise, there may be unexpected surprises.

Thinking of this, he was in trouble again.

In the current Ming court, there are really not many people he can command.

Unless you wait for Huang Degong, Cao Bianjiao and other armies to arrive, during this period, there is no ability to change.

To this day, he still believes that there is no problem with the method he set out at the beginning.

He still believed that letting Sun Jie fight with the gentry was the best way.

When he knew the news, Chongzhen even had the idea of ​​ordering to appease Sun Jie.

After thinking about it, he dismissed the idea again.

It has already reached this point, where is there any room for redemption?
People who know the news, besides Chongzhen and Zhou Yanru, there is also Huang Taiji who is far away in Liaodong.

When he knew about Sun Jie's situation, his resentment relaxed a lot.

The ice and snow on the east side of Liaodong hadn't been unblocked yet, and Huang Taiji stood on the somewhat dilapidated city wall of Shengjing, looking to the west from afar.

He was thinking whether he should fight again, whether he should lead the soldiers to Shaanxi for a collision.

"Should go, should go."

After a long time, Huang Taiji finally made up his mind.

If you don't go, it's a pity to miss such a good opportunity.

However, he wouldn't just run over carelessly like this and have to pull Daming up.

The wind on the top of the city made his forehead ache, and Sun Jie's blow to him made him haggard a lot, and he walked down the city wall rubbing his temples.

Going back to the study, writing a personal letter.

It was written to those civil and military officials in the imperial court.

He didn't want to fight alone, he always had to drag Daming.

As the saying goes, a long distance makes a near attack.

According to common sense, Huang Taiji should attack Daming together with Sun Jie.

But Huang Taiji didn't have this idea at all, it was because Sun Jie was too vicious, and he didn't give him a way out at all.

If there are tens of thousands of people involved, if you cooperate with him, let alone whether he agrees or disagrees, these people under him will be in chaos first.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to unite with the Ming court.

In order to express his sincerity, he even wrote a personal letter to Chongzhen.

The attitude is very low, even willing to take Daming as the suzerain state, willing to be a vassal state.

This is just a stopgap measure.

If Chongzhen agreed to send troops to Shaanxi together, then Huang Taiji's soldiers and horses would be able to enter the hinterland of Daming.

When the time comes, take Shaanxi and fight back.

How do these officers and soldiers resist?

At that time, what kind of suzerain country will be cut down with a knife.

No matter how you calculate it, it is cost-effective.

As for taking advantage of the danger of Ming Dynasty and taking the capital first, he never thought about it.

Judging from the current defensive strength of the capital, Huang Taiji does have this strength.

But what if you take it down?
When Sun Jie raised his troops to go north, didn't he want to go back to Liaodong?
Therefore, we must first unite and kill Sun Jie.

In order to express his sincerity, he sent a large team of envoys to the capital.

This emissary team, led by Fan Wencheng, entered the capital mightily.

In the past, Chongzhen would definitely have sneered at Huang Taiji, and would have made the "great Confucians" in the court scold him a few words.

But now it's different, at least not so resistant.

Huang Taiji wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, but Chongzhen didn't want to use Huang Taiji's soldiers and horses to wear down Sun Jie's strength?

They all use each other, and no one is better than the other.

After all, the current Sun Jie is too big to lose, and Huang Taiji has lost so many people in Sun Jie's hands, the threat is not as good as before.

Huang Taiji's emissary team is very distinctive, and it's hard not to be noticed by walking the streets of the capital in such a mighty manner.

The intelligence personnel Sun Jie stayed in the capital also quickly reported the news back.

Sun Jie saw their plan at a glance.

However, it is also an opportunity.

Since all the ghosts and ghosts from all walks of life gathered in one place, it would be easier to let the fire burn more violently and cook them all with one spoonful.

On the fourth day of April in the 13th year of Chongzhen, "Rebels" were everywhere in Fengxiang Mansion, Weinan Mansion, and Yan'an Mansion, and all the cities were "recovered".

On the seventh day of April, Sun Jie "led the army to conquer", and was defeated by the "rebels".

These news spread throughout the entire Ming Dynasty in a short period of time.

Even the southeast coast is full of such news.

The whole world is excited about it!

All of a sudden, the mountain rain was about to come and the wind filled the building.

……

The night quietly enveloped the earth, and the temperature was a bit chilly.

It was already late spring, and it rained again yesterday, standing on the city wall, feeling a bit gloomy and cold.

Looking at the lights of thousands of houses in and outside the city, Sun Jie felt much more relaxed.

"What you do is for peace. If you can exchange your own body for eternal peace, that's enough." Sun Jie said.

Where does it look like it is seriously injured?Lively and vigorously, active to the extreme.

Sun Chuanting, who was standing behind him, had a worried face.

"My lord, aren't you afraid of capsizing in the gutter with your dangerous move this time?"

It's not that Sun Chuanting is cursing him on purpose, it has never been done like this since ancient times.

No matter when, internal stability is always the top priority.

Those heroes in history, or those founding emperors.

On the road to entrepreneurship, if they encounter something that makes them difficult, there is a high probability that they will make concessions.

There are not many people like Sun Jie who show the enemy's weakness and deliberately lure him.

This is not to say that this is not possible, but the risk is too great, and the result is unpredictable.

"Why are you afraid? What's so scary?" Sun Jie said calmly.

Sun Jie's control over the army has reached a very terrifying level.

The system team established before firmly controls the current army.

Sun Jie can even directly bypass those generals and issue orders up to the level of a hundred households.

History has never seen such a level of terror.

The rights of the leading generals were cut again and again by Sun Jie.

Not only has the combat effectiveness of the army not declined, but it is still improving.It even avoided the failure of the battle due to the negligence of the general.

With an army in his hands like an arm, why should Sun Jie be afraid?

Besides, Xi'an Prefecture and Fuping's surroundings are still stable, and the basic market is still there, so it can't be turned upside down.

There are also radio stations and walkie-talkies everywhere, and there is no communication gap at all.

Sitting in Xi'an Mansion, control the affairs of the world.

"Well, let's release a few more news outside.

In other words, the sun thief was seriously injured in mid-April, and he was in a coma, and his life might not last long.

In addition, the general granary of the Xi'an Prefecture caught fire, and there was not a single one of the hoarded military rations.

By the way, send some people to Shanxi and the Central Plains to buy nanmu and funeral supplies.

By the way, get some junk equipment and sell it.

Acting, naturally do a full set! "

Sun Jie's voice kept echoing in Sun Chuanting's ears.

Sun Chuanting was full of worries.

Unless you are absolutely confident in your own strength and your subordinates, otherwise, you will not do this kind of thing.

This kind of news is a great test for people's hearts.

One careless move will result in a total loss, and it will be a fake show for real.

The night passed, and the day rose.

The capital is celebrating with each other, and there are peaceful scenes everywhere.

The sharpness of the previous days seems to have completely disappeared.

Sun Jie was originally a sharp sword hanging over their heads, making everyone tremble with fear.

But this time, it is "soon to die".

People like the courtiers and Chongzhen basically believed it.

There are soldiers selling things outside and buying funeral supplies, how can this be fake?
Even Huang Taiji from Liaodong felt that this was a good opportunity.

The capital is peaceful and peaceful, but this is just a superficial article, full of evil intentions.

Similar to the previous time, they all wanted to get benefits from Shaanxi.

What Chongzhen wanted was to receive soldiers from Shaanxi, regain control of the military, and then lead the troops to kill civilian officials.

The civil officials changed their previous thinking and no longer went south, but had the same thoughts as Chongzhen.

As for Huang Taiji, it was the same. He wanted to make a fortune in Shaanxi, and then took the opportunity to fight back and win the northern part of Daming.

What is there in Shaanxi?In addition to the invincible soldiers and horses in the world, there are also the money of Shanxi merchants and Jinling Jiangnan, as well as the population he brought back and the food he hoarded.

Even if you only get a part of it, it is one of the best wealth in the world.

This is a big fat pot of fat, and no one does not salivate.

The alluring fragrance even made Chongzhen and his courtiers put down their disputes.

It even acquiesced in Jiannu's participation.

The bait has been thrown down, and the next step is to wait for the fish to take the bait.

The first one who couldn't sit still was Chongzhen.

He thought he was the emperor and had a righteous name, so he sent an eunuch to Shaanxi with several imperial edicts.

These imperial edicts were addressed to Chen Hu, Zhao Dading, Liang Wu, and various officials of the Qin and Shang Dynasties.

Feng Chenhu and others are various generals, and Feng Liang Wu and other civil officials are various high-ranking officials.

In short, all kinds of high-ranking officials and generous salaries have made promises.

This eunuch is none other than Gao Qiqian who killed Lu Xiangsheng in history.

Not long after Gao Qiqian left, Huang Degong, Cao Bianjiao, Qin Liangyu and others' troops were also in place.

Chongzhen appointed Minister Fu Zonglong as the governor of the bandits and horses, the governor of the army and horses of the world, and went to suppress the "thieves" in Shaanxi.

This person is a loyal courtier of Chongzhen. In history, he quelled the Anbangyan Rebellion in the Southwest, and was later promoted by Chongzhen to Minister of the Ministry of War.

But he was upright, stubborn, and repeatedly disobeyed Chongzhen, and was thrown into prison by Chongzhen.

In the 14th year of Chongzhen, the situation deteriorated. Only then did Chongzhen think of him, and released him again, making him the governor of Shaanxi's trilateral military affairs. Later, he fought with Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others and died in battle.

He is a minister of flesh and blood, affection and righteousness.

Governor Fu Zonglong's army has only 5 to [-] people, and most of them are settled in shabby guards.

The real elite are only servants of generals at all levels.

In addition to the soldiers and horses who fled back from Shaanxi, they made up, and there were only more than 6 people and less than 7 people.

When all the soldiers and horses had not yet arrived, Gao Qiqian finally arrived in Shaanxi.

When entering Tongguan, nothing unusual was found.

The defenders here were lazy, they didn't even check Gao Qiqian's identity, they asked him a few casual questions, and then let him in.

Gao Qiqian, who thought nothing had happened, speeded up and headed for Xi'an Mansion.

As everyone knows, his whereabouts have long been watched.

The soldiers guarding Tongguan are only superficially lazy, and they are all Sun Jie's elite.

Naturally, one can see the difference in Gao Qiqian, even though he is dressed as a businessman.

But with that sharp male duck voice and Beijing accent, it was hard to deceive these soldiers.

Before he arrived at Xi'an Mansion, Sun Jie got hold of his whereabouts.

Acting in a full set, Sun Jie asked people to hang white flags all over Xi'an Mansion, crying again and again for a while.

Among the white flags all over the city, Gao Qiqian entered Xi'an Mansion.

Being quite cautious, he first inquired about Sun Jie's real situation.

As everyone knows, he has been stared at.

The few "street people" or "green-skinned hooligans" who were asked were all hidden threads in the city.

After getting the accurate information, he stayed in Qinxiang Tower with ease.

Sitting in the room of Qinxiang Building, looking at the night outside, drinking fine wine.

"I've heard about the fine wine of West Wind for a long time, but I tasted it today, and it really lives up to its reputation."

Put down the wine glass, pick up the dishes, and chew slowly.

"It's this dish, the heat is almost interesting, not as good as the cook in the palace.

Not very tasty, rough and hard to swallow! "

While eating, he shook his head.

The entourage behind hurriedly flattered him, "Elder-in-law said that Shaanxi is a poor place. Where can I find good food? It can't be compared with ours."

"Indeed, alas, it's also for official business, otherwise, why would you suffer this?!" Gao Qiqian held his airs and squeezed his throat.

The night passed like this, and on the second day, he went to the streets to inquire about news, and even went to Sun Jie's residence for a walk.

The tree pit at the door is full of boiled medicinal residues, and a strong medicinal smell can be smelled from afar.

From time to time, at the door, you can see guards in a hurry to buy medicine, or doctors who come to see a doctor.

At this point, he no longer has any doubts.

That night, he found Chen Hu.

This is Sun Jie's number one guard, he has a great reputation, so of course he should be attacked first.

In the dark study room, Chen Hu paced back and forth, his brows were sometimes furrowed, and sometimes worried.

After hesitating for a long time, he looked at Gao Qiqian who was sitting on the side.

"Elder-in-law, if I abandon the dark and turn to the bright, may I be reused?!" He asked anxiously.

But he scolded the eunuch Gao Qiqian as a beast in his heart: "You are the eunuch, and you still want to win me over? If it wasn't for the order of the adults, I would have chopped you up and fed you to the dogs!"

Of course Chen Hu would not betray Sun Jie.
