Chapter 706: Changes in Jiashen (2)
At the end of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao’s 800,000 army went to the south of the Yangtze River. He wanted to hunt Wu with Sun Quan. Sun Quan’s officials were afraid. Zhang Zhao and other officials all said to surrender. Only Lu Su said to Sun Quan: "Suitable for Zhang Zibu, etc., and Advise the Lord to suspend the army and urge the submission to the meeting. All this is the minister who protects his wife and is a self-scheming. The original Lord does not listen."
Persuading Sun Quan to stay, Sun Quan asked Ji Yu Zhou Yu again, Zhou Yu said that he led Wu Jun to defeat Cao Cao in Chibi, and then he was divided into three countries.
This is what happened now. The ministers wanted to surrender, but the king could not be arbitrary, and left the choice of life and death to the ministers, and there would be no day to death!
In fact, before the move to the capital, Daming still had a glimmer of life.
At the end of last year, Li Zicheng saw that his family was about to become a major event, and he was overjoyed.
General Liu Zongmin said: "Now that Daming has no warriors, Zong Min is willing to be a pioneer, break Beijing for the General Marshal, and cut off the head of the Emperor Dog and give it to the Marshal!"
Everyone praised it unanimously, and Song Xian, the unique military commander, was cautious.
Compared with those military men who didn't know the three characters, Song Xiance had another opinion. He believed that the North of Ming Dynasty was not enough to worry about, but the South of Ming Dynasty still has money and army, and there are two powerful enemies watching!
Li Zicheng asked urgently what is sacred?
One is the northern captives; the other is the Southeast Mansion!
The northern captives are known as "the Jurchen is invincible", and they are the formidable enemy.
However, the Southeast Mansion has a huge power, and the army is completely firearmed, which is not easy to deal with.
"If our army enters Beijing, it will be attacked by both the northern captives and the Southeast Mansion!" Song Xiance thought.
Everyone was laughing at Song Xiance, but after Li Zicheng thought about it, he sent someone to contact Chongzhen to make peace with the Ming Dynasty.
However, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't accept his conditions.
Li Zicheng asked him to cede the Shaanxi-Gansu region and the Central Plains in the northwest and make Li Zi the king. How dare Emperor Chongzhen agree!
The Ming Dynasty was a well-known dynasty that "does not cede lands, reparations, and does not seek peace". The cession of lands was considered a shameful shame. At the beginning, the emperor of Tumubao was captured, but the Ming dynasty immediately established another emperor and did not accept threats!
Without precedent, Emperor Chongzhen would never allow Li Zicheng to become independent.
Yan Changwu, the southeastern government, sees this very clearly, so his Taiwan is not independent and recognizes the rule of Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, even if the local officials of the Ming Dynasty are greedy for money, they will not dare to trade with chaotic officials and thieves.
Another condition of Li Zicheng was that Emperor Chongzhen should give him one million taels of silver, which he would use to calm people's hearts and do a good job of spring ploughing.
According to his thoughts, Emperor Chongzhen was a great tomorrow's son, rich in the world, and a mere one million taels worth of money!
That’s how it happened. Emperor Chongzhen’s treasury was as empty as a drum, and you could race horses in it. It’s really poor!
Speaking of him, he was bitter enough. After he became the throne, either the northern captives, the bandits, or the natural disasters, the Emperor Chongzhen couldn't sleep at night.
In fact, Daming has talent, and there are so many!
Hongmaofan and Waguo's silver flowed into the southeast of Ming Dynasty like a flood, but Emperor Chongzhen couldn't collect the tax!
The relevant people are all grateful to the Donglin Party. Without them to prevent the emperor from collecting taxes, there would be no HAPPY of everyone!
If neither of these conditions could be met, Li Zicheng sent troops immediately!
Emperor Chongzhen, who was eager to jump over the wall, issued two big moves.
King Qin from various places: The northern army has been defeated, and the only relevant external team, Wu Sangui's servant, said that he could not leave, otherwise the Qing army would enter the customs. The southern army said that it was not ready and asked the emperor to pay for it!
The emperor can't send hungry soldiers, give money to money!
Does the emperor have an outlay fee? I don’t have any hair!
Even Taiwan has an angel who has arrived, asking the southeast government to send troops to the king, and his status is not low.
The **** goes high and dives!
This person was Lu Xiangsheng’s supervising army, which led to Lu Xiangsheng’s death in battle. When he arrived in Tainan, he wanted to see Yan Changwu many times, but Yan Changwu avoided seeing him.
Just say that the army is being prepared, and there is nothing to do with it!
What about the emperor, the army is in my hands, how can you allow you to comment!
The entire South did not send an army, let alone Yan Changwu, who had long been double-minded.
Emperor Chongzhen issued an edict to the ministers to make donations to serve as military pay, and a farce happened.
He put aside his nine-five-five-year honor and asked the ministers to pay. Daming's chief assistant Wei Zaode donated five hundred taels of silver. The dignified chief assistant, not to mention the other officials, pretended to be mad and stupid. The actor, some **** the family's property donations, some sell the money for donations, and some declare that they are borrowing money to make donations. If they don't pay the official salary next month, the family will be hungry...
When Emperor Chongzhen saw that it was not the way, he changed his method and asked someone to take the lead in donating.
Who will be a model?
State head Zhou Kui, his son-in-law, the Emperor hopefully asked him to donate one hundred thousand taels. Zhou Kui tremblingly said, "The old minister has more money!"
His acting skills are so good, his colleagues all turned their faces to one side and didn't want to watch his performance.
He cried poorly, so he was only willing to donate 10,000 taels. The emperor asked him to donate 20,000 taels. He said that he had no silver. So Queen Zhou, who was his daughter, gave him 5,000 taels. This state head was so wonderful that he deducted them. After the two thousand taels came down, he donated his own ten thousand taels and his daughter's three thousand taels.
When Li Zicheng entered Beijing, more than 400,000 taels of cash were found from the former Guo Zhangye's house...
Emperor Chongzhen seemed shrewd for a while, but he was actually confused. He didn't know how much he had in Mount Tai. Wouldn't Zhou Kui's colleagues know?
As a top minister, foreign officials and businessmen pay more than tens of thousands of taels of filial piety to him every year!
Guo Zhangye has done this~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He has no money, will I have money later?
Even if you have money, you can’t donate, otherwise after you donate, the clear streamers will immediately impeach you and say you are corrupt!
evidence?
It’s the money you donated. Others don’t have money. You have money. Is this corruption or something?
Therefore, the poor Emperor Chongzhen went to death by himself. The money he got was so little that he threw it in the army and didn't even make a bubble.
The fate of him and his dynasty has been determined. After Li Zicheng led the peasant army to Taiyuan and occupied Datong, on March 11, according to Xuanfu, Xuanhua, Hebei). On the fifteenth, break Juyong. The next day, he fell in Changping. On the 17th, the Dashun Army surrounded the capital and attacked nine gates. Li Zicheng stationed in Gonghua City (now Shahe) and sent General Liu Zongmin as the commander-in-chief of the siege. On the 18th, soldiers of the Dashun Army climbed into the wall and captured the outer city.
Emperor Chongzhen went out of Xuanwumen (Shenwumen), climbed Meishan (Jingshan), looked at the beacon fire all over the outskirts of the city, returned to the Qing Palace, knocked the bell to summon the officials but did not come, accompanied by only the loyal old **** Wang Chengen.
In this extremely sad moment, he finally understands who treats him best!
Civil officials have no virtue, but the **** has the heart!
He said to Wang Chengen: "The ministers mistaken me, the monarch died in the world, and the world of 277 years, once abandoned, it will be the mistake of the traitorous officials, so that this."
"I am not the king of the subjugated country, and the ministers are all the ministers of the subjugated country!" He furiously said.
That night, Emperor Chongzhen forced Queen Zhou to hang herself, cut the arm of the eldest daughter Princess Le'an with a sword, and killed several concubines.
On the morning of the 19th, Li Zicheng's army broke through the inner city. Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself to death in Meishan.
In the afternoon, Li Zicheng felt his clothes, rode a horse, and entered the Chengtian Gate (today's Anmen), and went to the Huangji Hall (today's Taihe Hall) to proclaim his emperor, which was the Dashun dynasty.
