Chapter 286
Those who could stand in this hall, except for one Du Shisheng, were all Tu Danyi's confidantes.
Everyone knows that a few months ago, Tu Shanyi overturned the situation with one hand and replaced the emperor on the throne.Everyone also knew that the talent of the new emperor Wanyan Xun was indeed far superior to that mediocre person before him, but facing the current severe situation, the actions of the new emperor were extremely inappropriate.
The simplest one is that the new emperor came to power at the same time as the Mongolian army was going south, so what everyone expected of the emperor was nothing more than to inspire the army, choose generals to authorize them, fight fiercely with the enemy, and stabilize the majesty of the great country under the city of Zhongdu.
First do the things on the table well, stabilize the external situation after the new emperor ascends the throne, and then you have to take power from the important ministers, and you have to make a difference in the big politics, and even what is the strategy for the Mongolian army? Thoughts, it's all normal.As an emperor, as long as the prestige is achieved, many things will come naturally.
After all, the nearby clan clans in central Beijing were withered, and even if the important ministers wanted to start anew, there was no suitable one.Between the emperor and the ministers, it is entirely possible to cooperate closely and get what they need.
But the emperor's approach was just the opposite.
The threat of the Mongolian army was imminent. He should have selected generals to train troops and granted full powers, but in fact he focused his energy on weighing the status of the leading generals, and forced them to contain each other with political means.
When he came to the throne that day, Guo Ning, Shuhu Gaoqi, Pu Sanduan, Pu San Anzhen, Zhang Rou, Miao Daorun, and more than a dozen other generals were elected.Among them, Guo Ning immediately led the troops to go out. The rest of the people have their own strengths, and they are not incompetent.
Shuhu Gaoqi is a veteran general, who has the rest of the original Jinshan Province, and has the strongest military force; Pu Sanduan has the most seniority and is also a leader in military and political affairs; Pu San Anzhen is a promising rookie who is unanimously optimistic Zhang Ruan and Miao Daorun, on the one hand, followed the emperor closely, and on the other hand, he wooed Hebei heroes.
These few people, no matter who the emperor likes or wants to use, not to mention repelling the Mongolian army, at least the surrounding situation is stable and there is no problem.
But the emperor probably lacked a sense of security.He seems to be very close to each of the generals, but in fact he doesn't really entrust his confidant to him. In just a few months, he re-promoted Wanyan Chenghui, Wanyan Bi, Wugu Lunqingshou, etc. People are all generals, and there is no subordinate to each other, and everything is governed by the emperor.
Is the emperor himself a veteran general or a famous general?of course not.
Does he have the ability to command the armies to confront the Mongolian army head-on?of course not.
Under the emperor's control, the battle situation around the central capital can be described as going from bad to worse.Since the veteran Ugusun Wutun, who was left behind in Beijing, was defeated in Zhuozhou, the military stronghold of the imperial court in Xishan was also forcibly removed by the Mongolian army, thus losing the barriers on the west and north sides.
But the emperor continued to appoint officials and make wishes, and split up the military power, so that in the middle of the month, there were more than ten thousand in the capital from the capital to Mouk, and everyone wore gold and silver medals on their waists.However, everyone dared not and could not go out of the city to fight the enemy.
At this moment, the Mongolian rangers have swaggered around outside the capital city, so that it is difficult to collect firewood in the city, the farmland is barren, and the water transportation is cut off.The military situation has become extremely bad, the price of grain in the central capital has increased fifty times, and people in the city have begun to change their children for food!
At this time, the emperor of Dajin suddenly had a new idea.
He said that firstly, the central capital is short of food, and the millions of soldiers and civilians are no longer able to support it; secondly, because the central capital is isolated from surrounding areas, the central government's ability to control the region continues to decline... Or, let's beg for peace with Mongolia?After the begging is successful, I will take everyone to hide in Kaifeng Mansion, Nanjing, and everyone will suffer if I am not here!
How about it?What do you guys think of my idea?
As soon as this remark came out, some people in the court were delighted and praised.
However, the more discerning ministers, including Tu Danyi, were all furious.
Everyone at the scene who heard Tu Danyi's recitation today also thought it was absurd.
Begging for harmony and moving the capital are two things that ordinary ministers can talk about.It is not impossible for important officials of the imperial court to hold this opinion in case there is a turnaround.But how could the emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom openly make such a claim?
The basis of the founding of the Dajin Kingdom is not to cultivate one's own culture and virtue, and to come to court from afar, but to have real martial power.The emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom must ensure that his own martial power will not fall.What's more, Shandong has already won battles, and it is obvious that the Mongols will also lose!
If the country does not move, the Luan does not move, the might of the Dajin Kingdom will still be there, and the status of the master of the domain will still be there.No matter how difficult the current situation is, as long as the Mongols retreat a little, the court will always be able to relax, free up their hands, and there is always the possibility of reorganizing the place.
But if the emperor didn't dare to stay in Zhongdu, what would countless officials and soldiers think in the vast territories of Liaodong, Hebei, and Shanxi?The emperor is afraid, but are the officials and soldiers not afraid?The emperor is gone, how can the officials and soldiers fight?
This is obvious, when the emperor moves, the hearts of thousands of people within the territory of the Dajin Kingdom will be scattered!
In Han'er's history books, there are indeed records of many dynasties that avoided the enemy and moved their capitals.For example, the Southern Song Dynasty at this time was established after the Central Plains changed hands, and the nine kings Zhao Gou crossed the river.
That's because Zhao Song still has a vast territory in the south of the Yangtze River, with billions of people. Even if half of the country in the north is lost, it is still a big country!
If Dajin loses Northeast, Hebei and other places, what is left?By the way, Yang An'er has rebelled in Shandong, and Guo Ning, who didn't rebel, has no good intentions!
Not to mention Song State in the south and Xia State in the west, how would they react?The terrible situation that followed was simply unimaginable!
Taking ten thousand steps back, the emperor himself feared the enemy and avoided war, what is this?
Many civil and military officials took such a big risk to replace the new emperor just to let you make such a decision?Wanyan Yongji won't do this?Even if you put a fool on the emperor's throne, he will do it!
Do you have to show up Wanyan Xun?
Such a situation made Tu Danyi unable to sleep all night.
Tu Shanyi did not doubt his vision because of this, nor did he blame himself for it.The emperor's ascension to power was the result of the loss of confidence of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty in the previous emperor Wanyan Yongji, and the result of the common choice of the political enemies Tu Danyi and Wanyan Gang.
His political methods and power tactics at least meet the minimum standards of an emperor.
The sad thing is that Tu Danyi did not expect that Wanyan Xun would be so weak and timid; the sad thing is that such Wanyan Xun is already the most outstanding person in the near branch clan of the kingdom. King Yonggong of Yue, King Kui Yongsheng, King Huo Congyi and others who were killed before enthroning were even more stupid.
So, what to do?
The emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty should defend the central capital and fight fiercely with the Mongolian army to the end. However, how can we stop the emperor's absurd attempt?
Everyone present knew Tu Danyi's unwavering opposition, and everyone held their breath, waiting for Tu Danyi to come up with a way to reverse the situation.
Many people bowed their heads and waited, and couldn't help but go to see Du Shisheng again.
Is it possible that the navy will enter the capital again?Do you want to change the emperor again?Could it be that the massacre in Zhongdu a few months ago will happen again?I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right?The Mongol army is right in front of us. If there is another civil strife in Central Capital, the city will be lost!Some people hesitated, wanting to say something to Tu Danyi, but they didn't dare.
Just listen to Tu Shanyi's slow voice:
"It is only natural for the emperor to want to go to Kaifeng Mansion in Nanjing. After all, Nanjing is rich, prosperous, and has gorgeous palaces. According to this, the Xiongcheng city blocks Changhuai in the south, the river in the north, and Tongguan in the west for self-defense. Temporary stability... This is the only safe place in the territory of Dajin today. Apart from this, there is absolutely no place for the emperor to stay. Therefore, as long as we prevent the emperor from going to Nanjing, we will also prevent the emperor from leaving the central capital. "
Finally someone couldn't help asking: "How to stop it?"
"I will tell the emperor that I agree with his idea of moving to the south, but because the Mongolian army is isolated from the north-south water transport and the vehicles are impassable, so even if we want to leave, it will take until next summer and autumn anyway. Before the emperor leaves, in order to ensure the peace of Nanjing, The emperor should send a Zongwang to go first and go out of the Nanjing left-behind department."
"What's the point of doing that?"
Some people asked questions immediately, while others showed thoughtful expressions.
"The emperor's nature is quite suspicious and changeable, and he will regret it soon, but he will find that Yousi has hurriedly passed the imperial edict and appointed you to hold the military and political power of the Nanjing Road. But this king, and you, need to Set off immediately, before the emperor stops you, go to Kaifeng mansion by sea. I have already arranged this route. Mr. Jinzhi represents Laizhou Dinghai, and Daoist Chongxuanzi represents Quanzhen Sect. They will accompany you all the way and guarantee you along the way safety."
Having said that, Tu Danyi took a few quick breaths, obviously a little tired.
Du Shisheng got up at the right time and saluted everyone present, while Chong Xuanzi brought a hot wet cloth to wipe Tu Danyi's face to refresh himself.
After a while, Tu Shanyi slowed down and continued: "Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has always feared that his power will be transferred downwards. What he fears the most is that we important ministers manipulate the government without telling him. If you leave, he will surely The doubts are abnormal. And this point, just happened to be used by us. Before recalling this Zongwang, he will never leave the central capital, let alone set foot in the Kaifeng mansion in Nanjing."
"But, is it difficult for the emperor to recall the Zongwang who left the town?"
"It's not difficult for the emperor to issue an edict. However, it's very difficult to issue an edict to recall you. The important officials in the capital city have a lot of ways to stop him." Tu Danyi chuckled and said slowly: " What's more, even if there is an edict, you are in the Kaifeng Mansion in Nanjing, and you are as wide as the sea and the sky is high, so you don't need to pay attention to this kind of chaos."
"what?"
There was an uproar in the hall.
Hearing this, everyone understood what Tu Danyi meant. How could this be taking advantage of the emperor's suspicion?It is clear that everyone is going to help protect a Zongwang and set up another small court in Kaifeng Mansion, Nanjing.This is tantamount to the fact that all the ministers in the court joined hands to advance the emperor's desired path, forcing the emperor to have nowhere to go!
This idea will completely cut off the possibility of the emperor wavering.Since he couldn't go to Nanjing, no matter how reluctant the emperor was, he had no choice but to stay in Daxing Mansion in the central capital and entangle with the Mongols to the end!
Tu Danyi really deserves to be the number one power minister who single-handedly dethroned and established the emperor. This is really an idea he could come up with!
Once this idea is implemented.The relationship between the emperor and Tu Danyi will be completely torn apart, and the relationship between Zhongdu and Kaifeng Mansion in Nanjing will become extremely complicated.
This idea is cruel enough to the emperor, cruel enough to Tu Danyi himself, and even more cruel to the civil and military officials who responded to Tu Danyi's call to come here at this moment!
But the officials present were all good people, and they immediately thought, if this idea is carried out, at some point, it may bring innumerable benefits beyond words?
The current situation...isn't it just that the bold and the timid are starved to death?
There was a little commotion in the hall, and then it returned to silence, with only dozens of eyes sweeping back and forth.
The two civil servant leaders Meng Gang and Tian Zhuo looked at each other, and Tian Zhuo made a gesture of extending his hand to greet each other.
Mongolia Gang came out and bowed: "Prime Minister Tu Shan, I have something on my mind. If I don't ask clearly, I won't be sure."
Tu Danyi squinted his eyes: "You just talk about it."
"Now that the imperial clan is withered, I don't know who the Zongwang the prime minister is talking about; I don't even know whether this Zongwang believes in us, and whether we can trust this Zongwang."
Tu Danyi patted the soft quilt on the couch with his thin hands, and laughed.
