The Strongest Simulator In the Sky

Chapter 43: Confucian gambling

The capital city has been expanded since it became the capital of the Liao State. During the Northern Song Dynasty, the Khitans of the Liao Kingdom had become accustomed to the living habits of the Han people. In fact, the capital could already be regarded as the capital of the country. In the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties, it became the capital of the country directly.

Afterwards, except for Zhu Yuanzhang's short-term capital in Nanjing during the Hongwu period, the capital became the capital of the Ming Dynasty again during the Zhu Di period. It has been fortified for more than 100 years, and this capital is almost the most unlikely city in the world today to be captured. one.

At this time, on the city wall of the capital of the Ming Dynasty, officials were looking coldly at the Tatar cavalry raging outside.

Those Tartar cavalrymen have been raging outside the city for more than half a month, and the hundreds of kilometers around the capital are almost bare.

Of course, the officials of the Ming Dynasty above the city walls would not care about the life and death of those ordinary people, they only care about the survival of their own families.

For more than half a month, the food supply in the capital has reached the limit.

Although these officials still have good clothes and food in their homes, as the rulers of the huge empire of Daming, these officials are by no means idiots. What happens to the military's daily needs.

Howling, mutiny...

These are all possible. Daming's military power can be seen as a hump. From the founding of the country to Tumubao, it was a hump. Then, Qi Jiguang was born and trained a new army to the three major expeditions. It was a hump, and Apart from these two humps, the rest of Ming's military power is truly heartbreaking.

Why Zhu Houzhao mobilized the forbidden army and the frontier army to change the defense is because he saw that the current military power of the Ming Dynasty was unbearable.

Therefore, there is no doubt that if the capital cannot gather the rations for the defenders at this time, this huge city will have to be finished in minutes.

That's why so many officials ran to the city walls, they were all praying that the Tartar cavalry would retreat sooner.

Yang Tinghe was standing in the middle of the crowd. At this time, the first assistant, like the other officials, was staring at the Tatar cavalry outside the city.

It's just that this first assistant is different from the others. He didn't care about the fact that the capital couldn't keep up. On the contrary, seeing those Tartar cavalry flamboyant, a faint smile flashed in the eyes of this first assistant.

"Your Majesty lost his virtue, so that the Tatars went south. Now, although there are rumors that His Majesty is in the south to deal with rebels and get food for the capital, but the rumors are not credible. The new king will be enthroned immediately..."

A solemn voice came out of Yang Tinghe's mouth.

The chief assistant turned his head and glanced coldly at the officials above the city wall.

Some of the officials here are Confucian disciples, some are not, and even if they are Confucian disciples, not everyone is on his side.

However, no matter what other identities these officials have, one thing is the same, each of them can see the crisis in the capital at this moment.

In fact, even Yang Tinghe is not without a sense of crisis in his heart. He does have a secret connection with the Tatars outside the city, but not to mention that the connection is not in his own name.

Even if the contact was made in his own name, if the Tartars invaded the capital, they would never let him, the chief assistant, be free.

In the final analysis, the reason why he secretly contacted the Tatars was just to take advantage of these Tatars, to have a dispute with Zhu Houzhao, and to be able to control the change of the throne.

In this original history, his descendants, those Donglin parties, were afraid that they had the same idea as him, which would eventually lead to the rise of Dongnu and destroy the Ming Dynasty and enter the Central Plains.

"Electing a new monarch is a very big matter. Even in the reign of Emperor Yingzong, it was only to ensure that the monarch was captured by the enemy. Therefore, this old man does not agree with the proposal of Shoufu..."

On the side, an old man spoke decisively.

The Shoufu of the Ming Dynasty, most of the time, can make a decision on state affairs. Sometimes, even if it is the emperor's imperial decree, if the Shoufu feels that there is a problem, he can stay in the middle. However, this time involves the change of the throne, the Shoufu The authority is obviously not enough for everyone to agree with.

"Then what do you say, the capital has been trapped for more than half a month, and the food from Jiangnan has not been delivered. It is rumored that the emperor has suppressed the rebellion, but no one knows the trace of the emperor so far. I'll wait until I die, and then the Six Divisions of Nanjing will find a suitable vassal king to inherit the throne..."

Yang Tinghe looked at the old man with cold eyes.

In order to be able to change to a more controllable emperor, in order to prevent Zhu Houzhao from restoring the present Great Ming court to what it was in the time of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, these days, he basically tried his best, and at first It went well. Zhu Houzhao foolishly took a team of Jinyiwei and ran to the south. Seeing that the Confucianists could easily kill Zhu Houzhao and put the blame on the grass on the rivers and lakes.

Who would have thought that Cao Mang would meet Zhu Houzhao, and killed a large number of Confucian masters in one go.

This forced Yang Tinghe to take advantage of the Tatars to take risks. Now, UU reading www.uukanshu. The com Tatars have swept through a large area around the capital. Yang Tinghe thinks that he can no longer control the situation for long. Once the food in the capital runs out, the Tatars will really take **** luck and capture the capital.

At that time, it would still be a trivial matter for the capital to be irreversible. These officials, and even the Confucian disciples, were afraid that they would suffer. Others didn't know it, but Yang Tinghe knew that the little prince of Tartar was accompanied by a master of shamanism.

"The boat will naturally straighten when it reaches the bridge, there will always be a way..."

The old man who spoke before interrupted Yang Tinghe coldly.

He naturally knew that what Yang Tinghe said was likely to become true, and he knew even more that at that time, the Six Nanjing Divisions would not be effective at all, and the feudal king's struggle for the throne would be enough for Daming to finish.

However, although this old man did not know that Yang Tinghe had connections with the Tatars, he also knew that the biggest culprit of Zhu Houzhao's absence in the capital was Yang Tinghe, so he was not willing to compromise with Yang Tinghe at all.

"Is there any way, can you retreat the army outside the city, or say, the army of Jiubian can listen to you and me to come to rescue, without the emperor's order, who would dare to move the generals of Jiubian, without the emperor's order, Now, only those vassal kings who can provide food to the Nine Sides are the only ones who can instruct..."

Yang Tinghe looked at the old man with a sneer and said.

For more than half a month, he admitted that the capacity of the capital and those of these officials had reached the limit.

He had been passed down by flying pigeons a while ago about the incident in the south, and something happened. The Taoists didn't seem to have killed Ling Tian, ​​but now he needs to cut through the mess and sort out the capital.

In this way, even if Zhu Houzhao comes back later, he doesn't have to be afraid anymore. After all, the change of seizing the door is just as contingent as the Xuanwu Sect, and it is not something that can be done casually.
