Chapter 4 xi wen

Because Niu Jinxing is telling the truth, at present, it can be said that there is no water and fire between them and the court. The court has long regarded their Xing Tianjun as a sworn enemy. If not, the emperors and officials in the court may hate them even exceed their hatred for Jiannu. Now they will go north and go. To fight Jiannu, I'm afraid that without waiting for them to meet Jiannu, they will work with the officers and soldiers halfway.

Originally, they intended to help the officers and soldiers, but if they didn't do it well, they would become self-defeating. Instead, they helped Jiannu. Therefore, after Niu Jinxing said it, everyone felt that what they said was indeed reasonable. Even if they were angry with Jiannu's entry into the bandit, they could at most be on the wall and let the court go and Jiannu a high score. Get off.

Xiao Tianjian nodded and said, "Mr. Niu is right! Reasoning! It's really reasonable! We really can't send a large army to the north. In that case, not only can we not help, but we may also help Jiannu!

But this doesn't mean that we really can't send any soldiers! In this case, I think so. Let's have a good discussion today! ......”

The whole discussion lasted for a day or two. In the end, when the big guy was tired, he sat on the ground and was greeted by Xiao Tianjian. A group of people sat on the floor and discussed. When he was hungry, he asked someone to send in some miscellaneous noodle cakes and mutton soup. The big guy said while eating with miscellaneous noodle cakes dipping mutton soup.

Luo Ru's self-discipline of Xiao Tianjian can now be said to have developed from disapproval from the beginning to admiration. Xiao Tianjian's current business, not to mention eating and drinking spicy food, he can have whatever he wants, but until now, Xiao Tianjian has also married a wife and a concubine, and lives It's also very simple. He eats what the big guy eats. He rarely opens a small stove. Every time he goes to the barracks, he runs to eat with the soldiers in a pot. He also wears cloth clothes. The cloak is also an old cloak. Only the armor is better, and he found that it was Xiao Tianjian's style, but He is deeply loved by the soldiers of Xing Tianjun. You should know that he is also a leading army. The strict military discipline of Xing Tianjun is something he has never heard of before. When he was a soldier in Xing Tianjun, before them, he was forced to the extreme. It was simply self-abuse, but because Xiao Tianjian set an example, he was in the army. It has become a good style of work, and officials will naturally be strict and self-disciplined. In this way, although it is harder to be a soldier, it is balanced in the heart, and the officials are serious. When they go into battle, they are even more brave to move forward. I'm afraid this is also one of the sources of the strength of the Xingtian Army!

So much so that after more than half a year of adaptation, Luo Rucai has also become self-disciplined. He will be in line with other military generals as much as possible. He doesn't do anything special. Even his lustful habits have been forcibly curbed. In the past, his wives and concubines were driven to Luoyang City by him and arranged a The house was set up, and only when he came back, did he go back to his house.

Now looking at Xiao Tianjian sitting on the ground and following everyone chewing this rough and difficult miscellaneous cake, Luo Ru really admires him more and more. He thinks to himself that if this person does not achieve great things, then it is really unreasonable. Let's go! Now it seems that he made a wise decision to turn to Xiao Tianjian.

At the end of October, the government around Henan suddenly felt that their local atmosphere was much more relaxed than before. Originally, the Xing Tianjun in Henan was pressing and expanding the jurisdiction of the surrounding government during this period, but at this time, the collective suddenly He chose to stop the expansion operation, stopped the troops and horses, and stopped launching offensive operations in the states and counties controlled by these surrounding governments.

At the beginning, the local government was even more nervous about this. They couldn't figure out what had happened. They also speculated that it was probably the performance of Xing Tianjun before launching a bigger attack. They were so scared that they all trembled and desperately rushed to the peak and asked for more troops to help them defend themselves.

But in a few days, these officials received a letter from Xing Tianjun, which clearly showed them the attitude of Xing Tianjun. That is, during this period, Xing Tianjun will no longer launch any new offensive against the surrounding government. There is only one purpose, that is, because Jiannu and Tazi invaded, Xing Tianjun. They are willing to stop military operations, so that the imperial court and local government can concentrate all their energy to resist the enslaves of the invaders. At the same time, they also require these court officials and officers and soldiers to stop launching military operations against the Xingtian Army, and the two sides will stop fighting and resist foreign aggression.

In addition to the letters received from Xing Tianjun from local officials, in many places in Shanxi, Shaanxi, Huguang, Nanzhili, Shandong and Beizhili, the list posted by Xing Tianjun also began to appear. Xing Tianjun's "Pausing Civil War" was posted everywhere, and even in various places. This leaflet appeared. In short, Xing Tianjun took the initiative to stop military operations and supported the Ming court to resist the invasion of slaves. Within a very short time, it was publicized by Xing Tianjun in several provinces.

These leaflets and notices are not only handwritten, but also specially printed. According to the situation, they were distributed by Xing Tianjun's intelligence system, which immediately caused another uproar in Daming.

There are practical actions for this statement of Xing Tianjun, and the reactions of officials and people in various places are also different. The officials are relieved and think that God has eyes. It is really great that Xing Tianjun chose to rest at this time. Otherwise, they will really face the choice of life and death immediately. Now they It can be a little easier.

And the people praised this a lot. They felt that although Xiao Xingtian was a thief, he was a person with a deep understanding of righteousness. At the time of building slaves and entering the bandit, he would rather give a good opportunity to stop using troops against the government, so that the government could take a chance to breathe, and concentrate on dealing with the entry of slaves outside the customs. It is really A man with an extraordinary heart, even some literati who were very hostile to Xing Tianjun, had to support Xiao Tianjian's decision when they learned the news. Suddenly, the news was spread by countless people and quickly spread all over the country.

When Xing Tianjun released this news, Xiao Tianjian even sent a letter to the officials and officers and soldiers in the prefectures of Hebei and Shanxi, showing an attitude that if they are unable to stop Jiannu from entering the invasion, Xing Tianjun is willing to go north with his division to resist Jiannu and retreat Jiannu with the officers and soldiers. After that, Xing Tianjun can return to the original control area and will never be in their jurisdiction.

This letter was also quickly made public in the form of posting notices and distributing leaflets everywhere. At that time, it also caused an uproar in Shanxi, Hebei Province. The people welcomed it with their hands, because they all knew that most of the officers and soldiers of the court were unusable and could not get up at all. What's the responsibility of defending the land? They already have a conscience if they can defend the city. There is no hope for them to go out of the city and enter the wild war of the slaves. Xing Tianjun expressed his willingness to send troops to help the army and help the officers and soldiers defend the land to protect the people from the scourge of the slaves. Of course, the people are welcome.

However, for the government, it is not good news. They immediately collected the bulletin leaflets distributed by the Xingtian Army everywhere, and sent Pegasus to send the news to the capital and report it to the current Saint Zhu Youjian and the officials in the DPRK.

A few days later, the court also received the news that it was sent to the capital from all over the country. After hearing the news, whether it was Chongzhen or Yang Sichang, they were slightly relieved in their hearts, but then Chongzhen was furious and threw away these memorials about the criminal Tianjun's release of foreign insults. Under the dragon case.

"Absurd! It's ridiculous! This is nonsense! I am today. Xiao Tianjian is just a thief! But he kept saying that he invited the world to resist foreign aggression, where did this put me? Is it possible that these thieves can be guarded in this world? Chongzhen was furious in the hall. Many objects on the dragon case were thrown to the ground by him and smashed to pieces.

The servants in the hall were all so silent that they didn't dare to make a sound. Even Yang Sichang, who was recruited into the palace, was scared. He knelt under the dragon case and didn't dare to take a breath.

Chongzhen lost his temper in the hall for a long time, and then calmed down a little. Looking at the mess on the ground, Chongzhen suddenly felt weak and fell on the dragon chair.

This time, Xiao Tianjian issued a message to the world to resist foreign aggression, which hit him a lot. Originally, Chongzhen didn't want to fight with the Jiannu who entered the invaders this time. In his opinion, although Jiannu was fierce, after all, he just wanted to grab some money, food and materials, and abaku took some people back to be slaves. For Daming, it was not It was a disease of scabuse. After grabbing enough, they still had to go out of the customs.

On the contrary, people like Xiao Tianjian and Li Zicheng inside are the big troubles of his Daming. Maybe he will be replaced by the dragon chair. Therefore, in his heart, it's okay not to fight, but he must get rid of domestic thieves like Xiao Tianjian and Li Zicheng, so this time under his hint. Gao Qiqian, a slave, as well as Yang Sichang and others, want to secretly reach a secret contract with Jiannu, cut Liaodong to Jiannu, recognize the status of Jiannu, give Huang Taiji another 600,000 taels of silver every year, and sell a Jiannu and no longer break through the border. In this way, he can draw out the elite soldiers from the north and go with all his strength. Deal with these thieves who are "raging" in the Central Plains.
