  Chapter 2605 Hidden worries behind the scroll

  Nurhachi didn't dare to think any further.

  How many Jurchens are there in Jianzhou, and how many Han people are there?

  Choose hundreds of thousands of people casually, and the Jianzhou Jurchens will be wiped out, and judging by this posture, if it continues, if two or three million people come, will there still be Jianzhou Jurchens?

  If this situation continues, Jianzhou Jurchen will have no chance of survival.

   To break the game, when the opponent has this kind of advantage, just put up some tricks and traps, they will definitely not be hooked, and there must be something that can impress the opponent.

Da Zhou also has Fu Zi's hidden clues on the Jianzhou side. Nurhachi knew it long ago, otherwise Shuerhaqi and his son could not be easily bribed by the other party. A Jianzhou right guard commander coaxed Shuerhaqi and his son into not knowing Last name.

  Finally, Shuerhaqi and his son were dealt with, and Chu Ying was being targeted by Da Zhou again, and Nurhachi couldn't hide it.

Even Chu Ying confessed frankly that someone had approached him quietly and wanted to support him in escaping from prison, but firstly, the risk was too great and the conditions were not mature, and secondly, Chu Ying never gave up on her ability to take over the position of her father Khan. , so it didn't work out.

   It was precisely because of this antecedent that Nurhachi pondered to see if he could use Chu Ying to catch Da Zhou out.

  But if Chu Ying is released suddenly and entrusted with a heavy responsibility, it will definitely not be hidden from the other party, so this still needs a gradual process.

Using his defeat in these two battles as an excuse to make the internal dissatisfied with him, various "contradictions" and "internal strife" began to appear. Some people even began to think that Chu Ying was better at fighting than Daishan, Mang Gurtai and Huang Taiji. He was better able to lead troops, and started appealing in front of himself. He was under pressure, or was a little "guilt", so he released Chu Ying again, and slowly granted certain positions to create this situation.

   It’s just that such a process really takes too long, and Nurhachi dare not pin all his hopes on such a seemingly flimsy “trap plan”. What if Da Zhou doesn’t believe it or doesn’t take the bait?

  This can only be said to be a possibility. It is of course best if it can be done, but if it cannot be done, there must be other backup strategies.

Nurhachi was a little disappointed with the Chahar people. In fact, the Chahar people are the most threatening to Liaodong. The front line of the Liaoxi Corridor, except for the Horqin people, is the sphere of influence of the Chahar people. The rumors in the Liaoxi Corridor can force the Liaodong side to be unable to procrastinate in an orderly manner like this.

In fact, the position of the Nekhka people is farther than that of the Chahar people, but Lindan Batur has too weak internal control over Chahar, but Zaisai has a great control over the five parts of Nekhka. Zai Saiken joined in, and there was still room for the situation to be reversed.

  The North Koreans have already been discouraged and ignored the people they sent over. No matter how much they lobbied, they kept silent, neither agreeing nor opposing, but it was absolutely impossible to get them to take action.

  The Japanese also responded, but Nurhachi knew very well that the long-distance water could not quench the near-thirst. No matter how refreshing the Japanese were, they were also enthusiastic. They were alone at sea and could not help Liaodong at all.

  Inner Kalkha talent is the key.

   But the key is that the Nekhka people refused to board the boat easily.

  Clearly knowing that once Da Zhou really defeats the Jianzhou Jurchen, his Nekhka people will not fare well in the end, but Zaisai is unwilling to change his current attitude easily.

Nurhachi also has a rough idea of ​​the doorway inside. In the past few years, Dazhou has tied the Neikha people together with material trade. There are materials, such as iron and ironware, tea ceramics, cotton cloth and silk, spices and salt, and all kinds of southern goods. If these materials are lost, the Neikha people will be in chaos.

   Even Zaisai, he did not dare to ignore the attitude of the five parts of Nekalka. There are still many people who are not convinced by the five parts of Nekalka, so he has to think twice.

  The problem is that Jianzhou Jurchen can't wait any longer.

  Even if it is an adventure, he must take action.

  ********

   "Is Ziying's style of play too slow to take effect?" When Guan Yingzhen stepped into Wenyuan Pavilion, he heard Li Sancai discussing this issue with Tang Binyin.

"It has been a year and a half, and four border towns have been used for reinforcements. The loss of troops has exceeded 40,000, and the cost is huge. Last year, Dongjiang Town and Denglai Town had already reached Gushan Fort, but a year has passed, and the battle lines are still there. In the battle between Gushan Fort and Alkali Field Fort, Datong Town lost more than 4,000 people in the last month alone,..."

   "The cost is also quite huge, the household department..."

  Guan Yingzhen frowned, Li Sancai was showing more and more signs of tearing his face apart, and he was a bit out of tune with Qi Yongtai.

It turned out that the two could still maintain a basic harmony, but as Gu Bingqian became more and more powerful after serving as the second assistant, Li Sancai became more and more angry, thinking that it was Qi Yongtai who deprived him of the opportunity to be the second assistant, and Gu Bingqian was not qualified at all. Taking over as the second assistant was purely a private grant and acceptance by Qi Yongtai.

  Ziying is Qi Yongtai's favorite student, and this expedition to Liaodong can be regarded as a solution for the imperial court.

When I first went to Liaodong, Li Sancai supported it with both hands, and Feng Ziying also explained the strategy when he went to Liaodong, that is, it may take three to five years to see results, and we cannot expect to achieve the goal in one or two years. It's all clear, but I didn't expect Li Sancai to start acting like a monster again now.

  Li Sancai was not like this in the past, Guan Yingzhen is very clear, but now Li Sancai, who is out of balance, seems to be a little bit indifferent.

Seeing Guan Yingzhen coming in, Li Sancai didn't care, "Dongxian, I'm afraid it's not an option to continue the stalemate in the Liaodong war. Ganning Town and Datong Town have passed tens of thousands of troops, and Denglai Town has not withdrawn. Now The 200,000 troops are suppressing Liaodong, and the people eat horse chews every day, and the imperial court may not be able to bear it."

Before Guan Yingzhen could respond, Huang Ruliang who was at the door also stepped in and said, "The Ministry of Household Affairs is indeed difficult, but Liaodong is still distributing according to the standard set at the beginning, and there is no extra penny. As for Liaodong's current huge expenditure, Ziying will find a way on her own, which is what she said at the beginning, otherwise she will give up halfway, or rashly intervene in the front line, I am afraid that the gain will outweigh the loss."

Huang Ruliang is actually not too optimistic about Gu Bingqian, but Gu Bingqian is a scholar in the south of the Yangtze River after all, and has been in the position of Minister of Rites for many years, with deep qualifications. Even Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe could only recommend Fang Congzhe when they became officials. Maybe he rushed ahead of Gu Bingqian, so he had to maintain this scene.

Li Sancai snorted softly, "Tomorrow, you can't say that. I know that Ziying benefited from the help of those businessmen in Liaodong. They rioted, relocated people, and built bridges, roads, and workshops. They did a lot of things." But this is also a policy given by the imperial court. I heard that he stated that those rebellious people will be exempted from tax for five years in Liaodong. After ten years of continuous cultivation, the land will be owned by those rebellious people. I am afraid that this is not appropriate. This is the land of the imperial court ,..."

"Daofu, yes, these lands are theoretically owned by the imperial court, but there are too many lands in the imperial court, and the land in Dongfan is also owned by the imperial court. Is anyone willing to go? Anfu merchants paid for transporting people, and they are not willing. .Also, in the west, Guazhou and Hami are also theoretically the land of the imperial court, but so what? The Yarkand people occupy it, or just leave it uncultivated, is that good?"

  Huang Ruliang was extremely disdainful of Li Sancai's views.

  Sovereignty is in the imperial court, but no one has asked about it for decades, so what are you doing with it?

   Now it’s hard to coax these rioters to settle in Liaodong to reclaim wasteland, so what about five years of tax exemption and ten years of ownership?

  The land rent is gone, but taxes are indispensable. Huang Ruliang wished he could go to tens of millions of rebels to reclaim land, no matter if it was Liaodong or Dongfan or Luzon and Kuwu and Eizo.

  Don't worry about the petty profits in front of you, as long as people can gain a firm foothold there and take root, the source of taxation will naturally be cultivated slowly.

  How could Li San not understand such a simple truth?

  Huang Ruliang didn't believe it, it was just a deliberate pick on Feng Ziying.

   "Since the Ming Dynasty, Dongfan, Western Regions and Liaodong cannot be compared..." Li Sancai did not expect Huang Ruliang to be so serious, and argued with some reluctance: "That is the land that has always been in the hands of the imperial court..."

"It has always been in the hands of the imperial court, but has it ever been used by the imperial court? In the past, the Nuer Gandusi in the Ming Dynasty was a prisoner. This dynasty simply set up a military town, and the guards were limited to the corridor in the west of Liaoning. The east and south of Liaoning are basically a wilderness. , This also led to the logistics support of Liaodong having to be transported from our customs, which was a huge waste. It is also now that Niuzhuang and Jiulian City have been opened and built, and the sea transportation has developed. These rioters can rely on roads to reclaim wasteland and the promotion of potatoes. Without these, southern Liaoning would be a wilderness for thousands of miles. It is really necessary to wipe out the Jianzhou Jurchen. After thousands of miles of land, there is still a wilderness. The court still lacks that. Is it a little bit?"

  Huang Ruliang was not polite, he saw the tricks, and Li Sancai's words were full of loopholes. If he wanted to use this to target Feng Ziying's strategy in Liaodong, Huang Ruliang could not agree.

"But tomorrow, do you know that for more than a year, there have been continuous wars in Liaodong, and the casualties of soldiers have been huge. There are six border towns on the border. How long will it take to fight like this? Generally speaking, there is a saying that the fight cannot be continued endlessly. Even if those businessmen support Ziying, Ziying still relies on the land of Liaodong All kinds of monopoly rights to offset the issuance of Liaodong bonds will eventually fall to the imperial court to repay the principal with interest..."

   Li San dared to make such an attack, so he naturally had something to rely on.
