Chapter 14 The Power of Public Opinion

Even some non-core clear streamers and officials couldn't sit still when they heard the news, so they immediately impeached Yang Sichang, saying that Yang Sichang was a treacherous minister who wronged the country. He asked the emperor to immediately dismiss Yang Sichang and behead him to show the public.

How could Yang Sichang think that the matter discussed in the court could spread to the people in the blink of an eye? How could these people in the city know the worries of the court?

This kind of thing can't be explained to the people. Yang Sichang can't say publicly that Jiannu is not terrible. What's terrible is Yu Xiaotian. Jiannu has now robbed enough and let them go and pull them down.

The key is that Yu Xiaotian may be a rebellious minister. This is the biggest enemy of the Ming Dynasty. If you don't fight Jiannu, you have to fight Yu Xiaotian! If this was said publicly, it is estimated that his family would be demolished by the angry people on the spot.

Yu Xiaotian is a person, and the people don't care. They only know that Yu Xiaotian is a general of the Ming Dynasty. Now what the people hate most is Jiannu. Jiannu has entered the customs several times, killed many Ming people, taken away many Ming people, harmed the Ming people in many places, and robbed how much money from the Ming Dynasty. Rich.

This is not only the property of ordinary people, but also the death of ordinary people. The gentry and dignitaries around Beijing, including Beizhili and many places in Shandong, are all victims and have suffered a lot.

These people can't afford to offend the master. Their family was broken by Jiannu, their money was robbed by Jiannu, their family was killed by Jiannu, and women were ruined and robbed by Jiannu.

These people and Jiannu have a feud with each other. If you hear Yang Sichang say that he wants to let Jiannu go, and in turn, he wants to help Jiannu fight Yu Jiajun who came here to fight Jiannu, how can these people let Yang Sichang go?

As soon as the news was revealed, Yang Sichang's reputation was completely stinky. That night, someone threw the manure into the yard of Yang Sichang's house. On the gate, the courtyard wall was also covered with smelly manure. Suddenly, Yang Sichang's mansion was smelly, and the smell could be spread for ten miles against the wind. .

Yang Sichang also knew that he had completely made trouble this time and rushed to the palace in the morning, but as soon as his car came out of the yard, he became a street mouse.

Along the way, there were scolding everywhere. People hid behind the wall, stood on the street, climbed to the roof, and held radishes, earth blocks, stones and broken shoes.

People can't be angry with the public. Once they are angry, the consequences will be very serious. Yang Sichang is completely angry with the public this time. At the beginning of protecting his own soldiers, how can they drive away the people who pointed to Yang Sichang's sedan chair and curse or throw things, shouting for killing.

But later they also found that things were not good. More and more people joined the ranks of these people, and the curses were full of people, which can be said to go straight to the sky. The messy things falling from the sky were as dense as a shower. Even the attendants who followed Yang Sichang's sedan chair were unlucky and were smashed. His face is full of blood and he wants to use force, but it is difficult for the public to be angry. If they kill people, then I don't know what will happen next.

At this time, they couldn't be arrogant, so they had to quickly protect Yang Sichang's sedan chair and rush into the palace.

However, as soon as Yang Sichang arrived in the palace, Chongzhen split the order and ordered him to immediately stop the campaign against the family army. Chongzhen is the best name and also loves to cherish his reputation. In the first few days, there were rumors that he wanted to make peace with Jiannu, which had scared him half to death. Now Yang Sichang is planning to take advantage of the war between the family army and Jiannu. At that time, he raided the family army from the flanks and the rear, and solved the disaster of Xiaotian once and for all. Originally, he thought it was a good move.

However, when the news came to the workshop and suddenly caused a lot of scolding, the incident quickly came to Chongzhen's ears through Cao Huachun.

Chongzhen couldn't sit still, and even there were people shouting that the Ming Dynasty should die. Finally, such a loyal minister and general came out to lead the army to fight against slaves, but the court wanted to put him to death. This is not make it clear that Chongzhen is a faint king, and he is a faint king who has fainted to the extreme. This Ming Dynasty is really immortal. It's hard to tolerate.

At this time, Chongzhen couldn't sit still and scolded who revealed the news. In an instant, he completely destroyed the image of Mingjun, which had been erected for so many years. At the same time, he also hated Yang Sichang and gave him such a bad idea.

He will not self-self-criticize. If there is any mistake, it is done by the people below. This idea was made by Yang Sichang, so it is time for Yang Sichang to come to top the cylinder, not to mention that the previous Lu Xiangsheng's incident is not over, and he has also learned a lot about the reasons for Lu Xiangsheng's war through Cao Huachun.

This time, Lu Xiangsheng died in the giant deer. It was indeed that Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian and others secretly restrained Lu Xiangsheng, divided Lu Xiangsheng's military power and took away Lu Xiangsheng's control of the soldiers and horses one after another, leaving Lu Xiangsheng only 3,000 or 4,000 weak brigades in the end.

Another person said that Yang Sichang specially sent people to insect the local government to cut off the supply of food and salaries to Lu Xiangsheng. Whether it is true or false, it is really amazing.

Even if he Chongzhen was afraid of Lu Xiangsheng and didn't want Lu Xiangsheng to fight to the death of Jiannu, he did not want Lu Xiangsheng to die. Moreover, he also knew that Lu Xiangsheng should be a loyal minister, and he was good at controlling troops. He could fight and kill, and he was a rare good minister in the world.

Lu Xiangsheng's death is undoubtedly a huge loss for Daming. Lu Xiangsheng can indeed be said to have been killed by Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian this time. At least Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian have an inescapable responsibility.

What's more abominable is that Cao Huachun also found out that Gao Qiqian did lead tens of thousands of elites of Ming army at that time. Chen Bing was less than 50 miles away from Lu Xiangsheng's headquarters. He sat watching Lu Xiangsheng's headquarters surrounded by the construction slave army, but said that he did nothing to rescue him. After the construction slave army destroyed Lu Xiangsheng's unit, he immediately fell. The head attacked Gaoqi Submarine's headquarters. As a result, Gao Qiqian led people to escape first, resulting in the collapse of the army. Now the tens of thousands of officers and soldiers under the jurisdiction of Gaoqiqian have already been dispersed by Jiannu, running everywhere, leading to the north and causing chaos everywhere in the south.

At this time, Gao Qiqian had not appeared yet, and I didn't know where to hide.

Now that such a thing has happened again, Yang Sichang has caused public anger, and if it goes on like this, the people's anger will cause chaos at any time. How can Chongzhen not be angry?

The biggest problem of Chongzhen is that he seems to be very responsible on the surface, but in fact, he likes to shirk responsibility in his heart. Now that things have happened like this, he has vented all his anger on Yang Sichang.

Now it is the idea proposed by Yang Sichang to jointly build slaves and kill Yu Xiaotian, which has aroused the anger of the people of the world. This matter can only be handled by Yang Sichang.

It is obviously not appropriate to continue to mobilise troops and horses to take the opportunity to enter and suppress the family army. Otherwise, the spitting stars in the world would be enough to drown the court. Therefore, Chongzhen hurriedly panicked and immediately ordered Yang Sichang to stop this action and change to Chen Xinjia and Shanhaiguan. The officers and soldiers who came closely monitored the movements of Yu Xiaotian's troops.

Yang Sichang listened to Chongzhen's scolding and knew that the emperor had changed his mind this time. He couldn't help sighing. This time, he was afraid that he would completely miss the opportunity to eliminate Yu Xiaotian. At the same time, he also guessed that he was afraid that the position of the first assistant had also been achieved.

What's more terrible is that another piece of news came out at this time, which was even more unfavorable to Yang Sichang. The matter was that the Jinan government was destroyed by the construction of slaves.

At the beginning, Yan Jizu, the governor of Shandong, did not concentrate Shandong's heavy troops to the area of Dezhou, but left a considerable number of officers and soldiers in Jinan.

However, Yang Sichang mistakenly estimated the march route of the Jiannu army and believed that Jiannu would definitely go through Dezhou to enter Shandong to attack and plunder, so he directly ordered Yan Jizu to concentrate most of the troops of Shandong officers and rushed to Dezhou to deploy defense, preparing to prevent the Jiannu army from entering Shandong in Dezhou.

However, I never thought that the Jiannu army would bypass Dezhou, first enter Beizhili, attack Shanxi all the way, and then suddenly return to Beizhili, go east into Shandong, directly enter Shandong from Linqingzhou, and ** go straight to Jinan Prefecture with empty troops.

As a result, Yan Jizu was caught off guard and had no time to lead the army back to Jinan. One day, Jinan was conquered by the Jiannu army, resulting in Zhu Youshu, the king of Germany, and Zhu Enshang, the general of Fengguo, being captured by Jiannu and finally killed by Jiannu.

Before this incident, Yang Sichang completely shifted the responsibility to Yan Jizu, saying that Yan Jizu's improper handling led to the empty military strength in Jinan, which eventually led to the destruction of Jinan Prefecture by the construction of slaves.

Chongzhen was very sad about the destruction of Jinan government by Jiannu. It was not only because the king and other relatives were captured by Jiannu, but the key is that Jinan and other prefectures and counties are different. Jinan is the capital of Shandong Province, an important town of the Ming Dynasty, and is located in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, but it was broken by the Jiannu in one fell swoop. This is for him. The emperor's face was really like slapped him a few times, which embarrassed him.

At the same time, Jinan Prefecture was conquered by Jiannu, which also greatly shook the confidence of the people of the Ming Dynasty, and made Jiannu personally feel the weakness of the Ming Dynasty. For Daming, the evil fruit caused by Chongzhen can be conceivable.

Therefore, although Chongzhen has not given an order to deal with Yan Jizu now, he has put a label on Yan Jizu. This person should be responsible for this matter and talk about it after Jiannu comes out of the customs.

But now it suddenly came out that although Yan Jizu should be responsible for this matter, the culprit is Yang Sichang. If Yang Sichang hadn't insisted on ordering Yan Jizu to transfer troops to Dezhou, it would not have emptied the defenders of Jinan. As a result, Jinan was taken advantage of the construction slaves. Attack in one fell swoop.

Chongzhen was even more angry about this matter. This time when Jiannu entered the customs, Yang Sichang could be said to be a series of faint moves and did more and more obscene things. For the sake of the festival between him and Lu Xiangsheng, he actually ignored the Ming Dynasty and made things like this. After that, he pretended to be confused, deceived the top and the bottom, and turned the shit basin. Put it on other people's heads and shirk his responsibilities.
