Chapter 503 Fan Wencheng's words of heart-killing

Liaodong.

night.

Outside Songshan Fort.

The Later Jin Khan Treasure.

The lights in the sweat tent were very dim. From the dim lights, you can see that Huang Taiji's face was gray.

In the darkness, Fan Wencheng looked at Huang Taiji numbly. Since he received this letter in the daytime, Huang Taiji locked himself in the tent of sweat, and no one saw him.

Huang Taiji locked himself in the sweat tent, and since he received the news, he also locked Fan Wencheng in the sweat tent, staring at Fan Wencheng from time to time with wolf-like eyes. Fan Wencheng knew that he had seen something he shouldn't have seen. From the initial fear to the later fear, to now, he has become numb.

"...well...um, cough..." Huang Taiji finally spoke, his vague mouth, because of inaccurate pronunciation, he couldn't understand what he said.

"..., cough, Wen Cheng, then read the letter. After reading it, tell Ben Khan what to do..." Huang Taiji said lightly, his voice was very light and lifeless.

"Zhe..., I obey the order..." Fan Wencheng said numbly and whispered. In his mind, there was no longer the courage and pleasure that was commensurate with Huang Taiji's monarch and ministers. Now there is only numbness and fear.

Fan Wenchen picked up the letter on the table and read it carefully with the dim light. Although he had seen some of the contents of the letter and was already prepared, he was even more shocked when he opened the letter. It was a fear that Huang Taiji put him more pressure. The Ming Dynasty emperor had successfully resolved the salt merchants and reached a compromise with the salt merchants. The Ming Dynasty was already in harmony. The consequence of this news was that they wanted to use the internal strife of the Ming Dynasty and then use external force to oppress the Ming Dynasty, so that the Ming Dynasty's defense would be flawed. The Ming Dynasty emperor had already expected that they would come to attack Jinning and had already made arrangements. Jinning and others had also strengthened their defense early, and it was not easy to defeat.

What's even more terrifying is that the letter said that the Ming emperor successfully obtained the family wealth of the salt merchant for 200 years. The silver money alone was as high as 30 million taels, and the other family wealth was not included. What's even more terrible is that the Ming emperor had received half of the salt class this year, and this half of the salt class was as high as 5 million taels... What's the consequence of these news? That is, the Ming emperor had countless silver to fight them. If calculated based on their 200,000-yuan population, the 30 million silver was replaced with 50 taels of silver ingots, even if they were smashed with silver, each of them would have to be hit at least three times on their heads... The more Fan Wencheng looked, the pale the pale and the worse his face. He finally understood why Huang Taiji was like this. This news was a bolt from the blue.

"Back to my master, I've read it." After reading the letter, Fan Wencheng's face was darker than Huang Taiji, and his eyes were full of fear and numbness.

"...Well, how does Xiandou view this news? Is it true or false? If it is true, how should I deal with it? If it is false, how should I deal with it?" Huang Taiji's face was gray, and his gentle and stiff tone sounded particularly vulnerable under the dim light.

"...30 million taels of silver..." As soon as Fan Wencheng spoke, he couldn't help but say 30 million in silver. This astronomical silver was astonishing. Fan Wencheng felt dry and his heart was full of powerlessness and fear. In his big gold, if someone could steal dozens of people and hundreds of horses, they would be praised by others. But what is that? Fan Wencheng suddenly had a deeper understanding of the words "Guo, Man and Yi" for the first time. The Ming Dynasty regarded itself as the Heavenly Kingdom, and it was not without reason to use these words with contempt, including his big gold. People have enough capital and strength to say this, and it is called this.

"...Well, then, Xiandou thinks that 30 million is true?..." Huang Taijina asked faintly in the dark.

"... Go back to the master, I thought this should be true. According to the usual habits of Emperor Ming, I will never be aimless. Now the new salt law has been released. If the old salt merchants have not settled it, how could the new salt law be born? Those salt merchants will definitely fight with Emperor Ming to the death. Therefore, I think this should be true. Even if there is some water, the moisture will never be too large..." Fan Wencheng said with difficulty. He was also very reluctant to believe it was true, but he had to believe it.

"... Thirty million taels of silver are not the most terrible. What is terrible is that Minghuang can have tens of millions of salt course silver every year, which is the most terrible. Even if it is a mountain, it will be spent quickly. But the detailed account of flowing water is available every year and can never be spent. This is the most terrible..." Fan Wencheng swallowed, trying hard to suppress the boiling fear in his heart, and spoke along with the words of the 30 million tons of silver.

After saying that, Fan Wencheng spread out another thing delivered with the letter, several Ming Dynasty residence newspapers stacked into small squares. The residence newspaper has already mentioned the matter of tens of millions of salt in detail, including what is the ticket and salt method, how to implement it, who takes over the world's salt making, how to pay taxes, etc. Through this ticket and salt method, it is not difficult to judge the true situation of this matter.

"Master, look at the contents of this newspaper, it is very detailed. I am afraid that Emperor Ming Huang has really done it. Even if he does not have the wealth of 30 million salt merchants, just the five million taels of silver he has obtained is still a considerable amount of money..." Fan Wencheng swallowed and continued.

"...Well, Ben Khan knows, Xian Dou makes sense, that is to say, this ten million is true, and this 30 million is true, and the Ming Emperor solved the internal problems, which is also true. This, Ben Khan has to admit that Ming Emperor is indeed powerful. Such a difficult problem has been solved within such a short time. It makes Ben Khan want to intervene but cannot even leverage his power. This Ming Emperor is so powerful! Perhaps, it is the master beside Ming Emperor..." Huang Taiji sat in the dark, listened to Fan Wencheng's explanation for a while, and then he began to get angry. Although the matter was extremely unfavorable to him, the facts were facts after all.

"..." Fan Wencheng stood there with his hands, not daring to breathe.

"When I see, what should I do now?" Huang Taiji tried hard to cheer up. Huang Taiji, who had been silent for a day, began to regain his vitality at this time. In his words and tone, the calm and calm Huang Taiji seemed to be back.

"Return to the master, I see, I think you might as well take two paths now..." Fan Wencheng thought for a long time before responding. Huang Taiji's calm voice made him feel relieved, and his mind was no longer as stiff and fearful as before.

"Tell me about Xiandou." Huang Taiji said.

"Return to the master, first of all, it should be said that peace should be made. Now the Ming Dynasty is in great power. Whether it is true or false, it should send envoys or write to the Ming Emperor to negotiate with the Ming Emperor. It would be best if it can impress the Ming Emperor. Second, it would be good if it can disrupt the inner vision of the Ming Dynasty court and cause trouble for the Ming Emperor. Perhaps the Ming Emperor likes merit, and this is also an opportunity. If it is said that peace with the Ming Dynasty, whether it is true or false, it should make some concessions to lure the Ming Emperor or the Ming Dynasty court to have differences. In this way, it will be beneficial to our Dajin..." Fan Wencheng began to use his brain again in Huang Taiji's calm and slightly vital words to give advice to Huang Taiji.

"Oh, what should I do with the real and the harmony? So what should I say about the false harmony?" Huang Taiji asked calmly. [Let's talk about it, the peace and harmony policies of the Later Jin and Ming dynasties have always existed, especially during the Huang Taiji period. Of course, it was mostly fake actions.]

"Return to the master, true harmony means to split the earth and submit to the vassal. Like Korea, respecting the Ming Dynasty as the presidency, but it also controls itself. Civil and military officials, ancestral temple sacrifices, etc.; false harmony should be based on attractive conditions as bait to lure the Ming Dynasty to be deceived. If it can cause internal conflicts or fights within the Ming Dynasty, that would be better. If it can be contacted to contact some people in the Ming Dynasty court to talk to me about the Dajin, it would be even more beautiful. As long as the Ming Dynasty is in chaos, it will inevitably be implicated outside the pass. Once a loophole occurs, it can be taken advantage of by my Dajin..."

"It makes sense. According to Xianfen, if it is Zhenhe, I, Dajin, will I, have to do that step to get the Ming Dynasty to agree?" Huang Taiji did not get angry at all because Fan Wencheng said the peace talks, but instead talked seriously with Fan Wencheng.

"...This..." Fan Wencheng was embarrassed, and this sentence became increasingly difficult to say. Even though Fan Wencheng made up his mind, he hesitated at the moment.

"It's okay, Xiandou just say it bluntly. Ben Khan still has this little bit of stomach." Huang Taiji said.

"…Shengjing..." Fan Wencheng gritted his teeth, made up his mind and said it out.

"...Shengjing?" Huang Taiji thought he had heard it wrong and asked in surprise. Although he was a little mentally prepared for Yan and, Fan Wencheng's words still surprised him!

"Return to Dahan, yes, Shengjing, if necessary, Shengjing can be given up. If Dahan is Zhenhe, if this condition comes out, it will definitely impress many people in the Ming Dynasty, including the Ming emperor, Zhenhe is very likely to succeed..." Fan Wencheng gritted his teeth and said with difficulty.

Huang Taiji suddenly stared at Fan Wencheng with a beast-like gaze. His eyes were in the dim light, and he was really afraid of people.

Fan Wencheng stood there firmly, his neck stiff, fear and determination appeared on a person at the same time, which was really weird.

"How do you say this?" Huang Taiji squeezed out these words from his teeth in a calm tone.

"When I go back to my master, although it is very difficult to give up Shengjing, my Dajin will have a broader life. The so-called death will lead to life. Master, you can think about who is west of my Dajin?" Fan Wencheng tried hard to straighten his body and tried his best not to let himself tremble due to fear.

"Lin Danhan?" Huang Taiji said casually.

"Return to the master, it is Lin Dankhan, which is Mongolia, and nomadic tribes to the west of my Dajin. The master can think of it. Although it is very difficult for me, Dajin to give up Shengjing, but once peace is discussed with this condition, it will be almost the same as the past of the Ming Dynasty. Without the pressing step by step in the Ming Dynasty, my Dajin can gather strength and eliminate Lin Dankhan from the grassland in one go. Although Shengjing has been lost, if Lin Dankhan's territory can be included in my Dajin, my Dajin will be resurrected again. It can be said that he was born in Mongolia. Although the Ming Dynasty can press against me, Dajin, from ancient times to the present, has the Central Plains dynasty completely solved the nomadic problem in the north? From the Qin and Han Dynasties, to the Tang and Song Dynasties, that is not by the border?

The wall confronts the nomadic tribes? Have you ever truly destroyed these nomadic tribes? The Yuan Dynasty has been destroyed by the Ming Dynasty for two hundred years, but now Lin Danhan still holds the reputation of a common ruler of the grassland, holding the jade seal of the Dayuan Town Kingdom. What can the Ming Dynasty do to him? Now he still has to persuade him kindly. If the Dajin can occupy the grassland instead of Mongolia, the power of confrontation with the Ming Dynasty will be established. The country's fortune will be extended, so you can be without fear of the threat of the Ming Dynasty. Even if the Ming Emperor can enter the grassland in a founding state, so what? Isn't the Ming Dynasty retreating back to the side wall now!... If we can gather some years of strength, it is not impossible to enter the Central Plains of the Cauldron. Isn't the Dayuan like this?" Fan Wencheng gritted his teeth and insisted, expressing his meaning clearly.

"...Huh..." Huang Taiji breathed a long sigh after hearing Fan Wencheng's words. The beast-like eyes changed back and his expression became calmer.

"This is true... Then Xiandou believes that giving up Shengjing can let the Ming Dynasty let me go? Let the war be calmed down? Is Xiandou not afraid of the Ming emperor turning against him? Although the Ming emperor's reputation is indeed good now, how can one rely on the reputation of others for national affairs?" Huang Taiji asked again.

"Return to the master, after withdrawing from Shengjing, there are hundreds of miles of Shengjing on this coast. It is difficult for the Ming Dynasty to go deeper. Even in the heyday of the Ming Dynasty, Shengjing almost reached the limit of the Ming Dynasty. Going north, like Tielingwei, it is almost an enclave. The so-called whip is beyond reach. That's it. If you retreat here, even if the Ming emperor wants to attack me, Dajin, you will probably have to weigh it..." Fan Wencheng was much calmer at this time, and he was not as firm as before and did not let himself tremble.

"It makes sense, this is true." Huang Taiji nodded after hearing what Fan Wencheng said. When he was struck by Tieling, the Ming Dynasty people themselves dared not send troops to rescue the siege, but asked Lin Danhan to help rescue the siege. Tieling was indeed too far from the center of the Ming Dynasty. Even if the Ming Dynasty wanted to save it, it would be quite difficult. Even if it turned against the Ming Dynasty, it would not be difficult for him to take back cities like Tieling. On the long road, the Ming army that could be ambushed everywhere.

"Master, I'm going to say something to heart-stricken. If I lose my fortune in the future, my way out should be in the West, and I should take the Mongolian grasslands as my retreat..." Fan Wencheng said this, his face flushed.

"Well, it's right, Xiandou is right. I have recorded it. I have to consider this matter." After Fan Wencheng's guidance, Huang Taiji's thoughts became broader and his vision became broader. He still has some skills. He still has to think about what he said, and carefully considers it. Although he thinks it makes sense, Huang Taiji also feels that there are always some things that are inappropriate. As for where it is, he can't think of it for a moment. Although there seems to be many hidden possibilities in this statement, after all, it has indeed greatly expanded Huang Taiji's thinking and vision. Huang Taiji attaches great importance to himself, as a counselor.

"Thank you, Master!" Fan Wencheng wiped his sweat. His words finally touched Huang Taiji. If his words did not touch him, the best ending would be to be assigned to the current slaves.

"Xiandou does not need to be so cautious. Ben Khan said before that in front of Ben Khan, Xiandou can just call his name or name, and there is no need to be with a slave, which seems to be alienated." Huang Taiji finally squeezed out some smile and said to his adviser "kindly".

"I thank my master Long's kindness." Fan Wencheng quickly knelt down and thanked him.

After saying a rude and polite words, Huang Taiji asked again: "So, from Xiandou, what should I do if I do this?"

"If you are a khan, you just need to give in step by step and don't agree in the end. This bait needs to be released step by step. At the beginning, you only need to promise to surrender. If the Korean law is the best, the Ming Emperor will definitely not agree. In this case, you can lower your identity slightly, speak your words more sincerely, and give up some territory. If you disagree, you can say the words more small, and give up some territory. If you can pretend to be pitiful and sincere, you will surely confuse some ministers of the Ming Dynasty. If you can ask them to help me talk to you, then this matter will be done. There will be constant disputes within the Ming Dynasty and there will be internal strife. In this way, my Dajin opportunity will come. Even if there is something internally arguing between the Ming Dynasty, I Dajin will not admit it, and it will not hurt my Dajin..." Fan Wencheng said.

"Well, it makes sense, Xiandou continued, what is the second way?" Huang Taiji nodded and asked again when he heard this.

"Returning to the Khan, the second strategy is what we are doing now. We will continue to adapt to changes and strive to gather a group of elite Ming dynasty near Songshan Fort, change the situation of both sides, and make the Ming dynasty unable to press on them anymore. I, Dajin, free up my hands and speed up the removal of Lin Dankhan. Judging from the current situation, Songshan Fort must have made sufficient preparations. A strong attack is probably not possible. The loss is too great. In this way, we can only surround us. Wen Cheng thought that even if Songshan Fort has made sufficient preparations, the food will not last long. If we can surround for a year or two, the food in Songshan Fort will always be eaten. Therefore, the Ming army will always come out..." Fan Wencheng analyzed.

"...Huh..." Huang Taiji breathed again. He understood that the ultimate goal was not Songshan Fort, but to encircle and annihilate a group of elites from the Ming Dynasty, so that the Ming Dynasty could no longer force him to force him to Jin outside the pass. He could calmly deal with Lin Danhan and incorporate Mongolian tribes. This idea was very good. But when Huang Taiji thought that the Ming Dynasty emperor had just obtained 30 million taels of silver and countless wealth, and had a salt class of up to 10 million a year, he could only breathe a long sigh. Even if he could destroy a group of elites from the Ming Dynasty every year, he could not resist the Ming Dynasty's emperor training elites every year! As long as there was enough silver and money, he was afraid that he would not be able to recruit people in the Ming Dynasty? The Ming Dynasty had a natural disaster, so how many people were waiting to eat! Thinking of this, Huang Taiji felt that the brighter sky had just become darker again.
