Chapter 88: The Yuan Emperor to the Ming Emperor
Chapter 88 Emperor Dayuan to Emperor Ming
Master Xiao said, "Khan, and now the commander of the Ming army, is our old friend, Qiuluan, Hou Xianning."
Altan said, "It's him. Or is it wise. If Qiu Luan had defeated him before, how could I come to the city of Beijing step by step? If I had sent someone to contact him, we can also talk. Talk about the price of His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty in Beijing. I would like to talk about it slowly, and I am very sincere."
Master Xiao smiled and said, "The Khan overestimated him. With Qiu Luan's ability, he could not do great traitors and evil. I have sent several people to seek Qiu Luan. But this marquis seemed to be willing to avoid suspicion. No one who went to see him came back. But when he saw the city of Beijing, Qiu Luan was also brave."
When Altan heard this, although he was laughing, he couldn't help but look at the Beijing city walls.
Nothing else, Beijing City is too strong.
Even if Altan laughed at the incompetence of the Ming army, with the powerful city of Beijing, the Ming army did not need many elite troops at all.
Altan said: "Mr. Xiao, before Ben Khan came, he had never thought about capturing Beijing. However, when he arrived at the city of Beijing, he couldn't bear to leave. This is the most dreamed of countless Mongolians. If he didn't try to fight, Ben Khan was unwilling to accept it. What did you teach me?"
Master Xiao hoped to capture Beijing City more than anyone else. But when he saw Beijing City, his heart was also cold. The sturdyness of Beijing City is not something he said.
However, he still did not give up on his efforts.
Master Xiao had already made many plans in his heart. He heard Altan’s question at this moment and immediately said, “Khan, I’ve actually said the point. Beijing City is a powerful city, but the soldiers are all weak. The key point of breaking Beijing is that the Ming army went out of the city to fight.”
Altan said: "How do you lead the Ming army out of the city?"
Master Xiao said, "I have been agitating generals. I have heard that Emperor Jiajing is stubborn and cannot tolerate any disobedience. Xia Yan has made great achievements, but because of his disobedience to Jiajing, he ended up in a different body and head. Today we will see if this Emperor Jiajing can calm down. From the perspective of a minister, it is better to write a letter to Emperor Jiajing to make him happy."
Altan said thoughtfully: "How should I write this letter?"
Master Xiao said, "If the Khan can believe it, I am willing to write for you."
Altan said, "Then Mr. Luck will be a huge pen."
Master Xiao Wen Sifeiyang immediately took a look. After a while, he blew the ink and handed it to Altan. When Altan saw it, he laughed and said, "Mr. Xiao's writing is really satisfying. It's just a little bit too." Altan pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Xiao adds a few words. If Emperor Jiajing is willing to open and close the tribute, it will not be impossible for our two countries to stop the war from now on."
I have to admit that Qiu Luan still has some skills.
He saw Altan's weakness. The opening and closing of the tribute was a problem that the Mongols were thinking about. Perhaps the Mongols had some advantages in terms of force, but in terms of economic issues, the Mongols had no advantage at all.
During the Longqing period, Altan was granted tribute, and since then, the two countries have had decades of peace. It is Altan's idea. The only difference is that without force balance, there will be no economic balance. When Longqing was granted tribute, the Ming Dynasty had passed the military lows. Instead, because of the war against Japanese pirates, a large number of generals were trained, led by Qi Jiguang, and even if it was placed in history, it could have a place.
This is why Altan awarded tribute later.
Master Xiao heard Altan's words and paused slightly. He actually didn't want to add these sentences. But he felt that he had written all this and it would be good that Jiajing was not angry to death. He would never agree. So he added these words without hesitation, copied them again, and found a captured Ming army soldier, and asked him to bring this letter to the city.
Soon, the letter came to Jiajing.
Jiajing opened the letter and looked at it, not looking at anything else. Just looking at the beginning, his face turned red and his anger was aggravated.
The beginning is the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty and Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
In Jiajing's opinion, this sentence was just a slap in the face.
The Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty had long disappeared. In the history books of the court, after fishing, the Northern Yuan Dynasty's imperial system no longer existed. The subsequent Mongolian Khan were all from the orthodox emperors of the Yuan Dynasty. They were just Borjijin, which was quite far from Kublai Khan's lineage.
The court has always recognized this.
The Ming Dynasty was built on the legal system that destroyed the Yuan Dynasty. Now, Altan, who claimed to be the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, was a naked humiliation of himself in Jiajing's view.
The Yuan Dynasty, which Emperor Taizu had long been destroyed, was revived in his hands. How could Jiajing, the emperor who was worthy of face, deal with it?
Not to mention, this is just the beginning. There are more rude words below.
I have been sweating so much that I have been seeing Your Majesty for a long time. Today I have whipped my whip and advanced eastward. I have fought dozens of battles to defeat Datong, Xuanfu, and Jizhou. Today I will hunt down the city of Beijing with Your Majesty. Please do not make me futile.
Your Majesty is afraid of the power of heaven and loses the heroic spirit of Taizu Chengzu, and is afraid of overthrowing the mistakes of Yingzong. My Khan is not very good for himself. Your Majesty just needs to allow me to make a few things, and I will stop the army, share tribute, pay money, and marry relatives.
If Your Majesty refuses to follow, the great Khan will definitely surrender to Dadu. Please think about Yongjia of Jin and Jingkang of Song, and do not say that you are not prepared for what you say.
So that's it.
Jiajing was so angry that his blue veins burst out. He felt that the temple was like a drumming, and his whole heart was about to jump out. Jiajing pressed it on the sword, and his knuckles turned white.
What a face-saving person in Jiajing.
After so many years, although he knew that the underground life was not very easy, he had been careful to maintain the peaceful and prosperous era. From this perspective, Yan Song wanted to whitewash the peace, it was clearly Jiajing himself who wanted to whitewash the peace.
Now I was slapped in the face by Altan.
If there is still some excuse for military failure, for example, the court was unprepared for the time being. But now, the letters brought by Altan are treated as a child, just like a plaything in his palm, how could Jiajing not be angry? It was simply furious.
Jiajing is still a bit cultivating.
He tried to take a deep breath to calm his anger a little bit so that he would not lose his composure. But the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, the more angry he became.
The Ming Dynasty never had a precedent for marriage, nor was there a possibility of paying for money, nor did it have an alliance under the city. Jiajing was definitely not able to agree. If he just refused, Jiajing would not be so angry. The most people get angry is to be angry.
The same is true for Jiajing now.
After so many years of Jiajing, those who follow me will prosper and rebel against me will perish. Anyone who makes him unhappy will definitely end up with his own consequences. For example, Yang Tinghe, Xia Yan, etc.
No one has ever dared to live happily after violating the dragon's power.
Therefore, after reading this letter, Jiajing's first thought was to take revenge. Revenge, and to ask Altan to leave his life.
It was just something that made Jiajing helpless. He was powerless to Altan now. He was incompetent. Now the strategic initiative is in Altan's hands. The younger generation who had never been seen by Jiajing before, but now he was bullied on his head and shit and pee, but he had no choice.
Calculate the time, Altan is actually at least about ten years old.
How could Jiajing bear this?
Jiajing couldn't help but draw his sword in his hand, and hit the pillar on the side hard, saying, "Sir, dare you."
Huang Jin, Lu Bing, Zhou Mengchen, and others fell on the ground together and said, "His Majesty, calm down."
Jiajing took the letter and read it directly, but had not discussed it with the cabinet yet. So Jiajing only had three of them around him.
Jiajing used too hard and actually stabbed the long sword into the pillar. The pillars were all very strong and strong. Jiajing was just angry and only played very long. In addition, the long sword in Jiajing's hand was also a sword, so he stabbed it in, but Jiajing couldn't pull it out.
Jiajing swung his sword hard, and the sword made a buzzing sound on the pillar. He said, "Stop the anger, how can I calm down my anger? I have never had such a great shame in my life. A mere dog Tartars asked me to hunt under the city. Do you think I am sure, or not?"
"Accurate, what should I do if I can't win?"
"No, what kind of face do I have? I am the lord of the world, and I dare not fight against mere barbarians?"
