Where should this start?
By the way, let's start with October of the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1627), when the Chongzhen Emperor had just taken up his post for more than a month.
The Chongzhen Emperor was still very capable, and after more than a month on the post, he seized power from the nine-thousand-year-old Duke of Wei, and then began to clean up the castrated party members all over the world.
Therefore, on the day of October of the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1627) (the above months are all lunar months), Mao Wenlong, the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town, who was full of ambition, received an official letter from the household department. After reading this official document, Mao Zongbing was like five thunderbolts.
Just four months earlier, at the Battle of Ningjin, Mao Zongbing, who was watching from the sidelines of Tunbing PiDao, had traditionally played the imperial court to boast of his efforts to contain himself after Houjin had retreated from Jinzhou. This will castrate the party because of the Battle of Ningjin, and the eunuch of pi dao, who received the court commendation order, was happy and assured Mao Zongbing that the nine-thousand-year-old Duke of Wei had already issued a message to raise his annual salary in Dongjiang Town from 700,000 taels of silver to 1 million taels!
However, four months have passed, and there is no wind of salary increases. Just when Mao Zongbing thought that this matter was yellow, who knew that the Household Department sent him a notice of salary adjustment - the annual salary of PiDao Town was reduced from 700,000 to 300,000 and 21 years!
Obviously, this official letter was the Chongzhen Emperor, who punished Mao Zongbing and the castration party too closely. In doing so, he was somewhat forcing Mao Zongbing to withdraw from the town at his own request, forcing the Dongjiang Army to withdraw to Guannei.
But will Mao Zongbing sit still and wait?
After Mao Put Down the Official Documents of the Household Department, He Ordered His Subordinates: "Please ask Deputy General Wang to come."
Wang's deputy commander-in-chief was named Wang Zideng, who was originally Hou Jin's deputy general, and he had just defected to Mao Zongbing's command anyway, so Mao Zongbing asked the imperial court for an official position as a deputy general soldier. Originally, Mao Zongbing was lukewarm and lukewarm towards this prince, but since receiving an official letter from the Ministry of Household, Prince Deng often went to the General Soldier's Mansion at night to meet with Mao Zongbing.
So what did Prince Dengdu conspire with Mao Zongbing?
To talk about this later, let's first look at a copy of the recital handed to the Chongzhen Emperor by Mao Zongbing:
The subjects could not bear to bear the burden of receiving the favor of the country, and they tried their best to complete the Liao, and seeing that this March will be exhausted, the grain will not reach a penny in the future, and the cries of disease are full of white bones, and there are more than one people who defiled the subjects, and the ministers are also bitter about this island and invite people to slander and destroy it.
Judging from the time revealed in the sonata, this recital should have been issued at the end of March of the first year of Chongzhen, at this time, five months had passed since Mao Zongbing received the notice of salary reduction. This Chongzhen Emperor was also ruthless enough, he not only cut the salary of Dongjiang Town, but also directly dragged it out.
But is Mao Zongbing really short of food as stated in the song?
Mao Zongbing sent the above letter to someone through Wang Zideng.
'The officers and men of Taiwan and Taiwan, the cloth and other things they use are not enough to worry about, and everything is not a mouthful of ears', this Mao general soldier cried to the Chongzhen Emperor and cried that the disease was full of white bones, and on the other hand, in the third letter sent to Huangtaitai through Prince Deng, assured Huangtaitai that the cloth of his army was all covered!
HuangTaitai is no one else, it is Huang Taiji.
Mao Zongbing had the ability and financial resources to get cloth for the Later Jin tens of thousands of troops to spend the winter, but he did not have the ability to get grain for his 30,000 or 40,000 Dongjiang Town soldiers and civilians?
What is the reason for this?
Just when Mao Zongbing was currying favor with the two ends of houjin and mingting, Chongzhen sent an official letter deciding his fate in May of the first year of the first year, sent out from the city of Beijing, and rushed south to Guangzhou for six hundred miles.
The content of this official letter is roughly as follows: Order (Yuan Chonghuan) to bingbu Shangshu and right deputy capital Yushi, superintendent Ji Liao, concurrently oversee Deng lai, Tianjin military affairs... So the priest urges the way!
Why is there such a rush?
No hurry, no, Jinzhou lost!
In May, Xin Wei, the Ming people abandoned Jinzhou. Belle Abatai and others led 3,000 troops to the three cities of Kuijinzhou, Xingshan, and Gaoqiao, destroying the pier platform 21 east of the thirteen stations.
I don't know why the History of ming did not record this event, but the Draft History of the Qing Dynasty recorded it. According to the Qing History Manuscript, this was the second time that the Ming army abandoned Jinzhou after the First Battle of Jinzhou in the third year of the Apocalypse (1623).
According to the Records of the Qing History, in February of the third year of the Apocalypse (1623), Nurhaci sent Daishan and Amin to lead an army to attack Buke, Jinzhou. This was the first recorded defeat of the Later Jin Army since Nurhaci rebelled against the Ming Dynasty. However, somehow the "History of Ming" does not record this battle, and various historical materials of the Ming Dynasty do not mention this battle. However, as a pile of "Qing History Drafts" compiled by the posthumous, there is no reason to fabricate defeats for Hou Jin, so the victory of the Ming army in this battle is a fact.
However, in the "Biography of Yuan Chonghuan in the History of Ming", it is recorded that in the fifth year of the Apocalypse (1623), Yuan Chonghuan proposed to restore Jinzhou, so after the Battle of Jinzhou in the third year of the Apocalypse, the Ming army should have abandoned Jinzhou. The first abandonment of Jinzhou, which has not been seen in the annals of history, should have been given up by Sun Chengzong on his own initiative. There is no historical record of chongzhen's second Abandonment of Jinzhou by the Ming Army in the first year, and it seems that the Ming Army mutinied and abandoned the city and fled.
Yuan Chonghuan rushed back to Beijing, and when he bargained with Chongzhen in Beijing for the defense of Liaodong, Mao Zongbing sent another good news to the city of Beijing. This time, Mao Zongbing did not falsely report his battle achievements, and the little prince of Houjin was captured on Phi Dao during reconnaissance!
However, such a great achievement, whether it is the "History of the Ming Dynasty" or the "Draft History of the Qing Dynasty", it is not mentioned at all, as if there is no such person as Kuoke!
So how did the codeword know about this?
It was the North Koreans who said it.
Hu Cha's five men and one escorting Tang Cha (Ma Tongshi) will carry light goods from Snake Island, straight to Yizhou, and ask the Tang people (Dongjiang Army), then the secret is not clear. Mao communicates with the captives, and the result seems to be clear for the future. The Yellow Household Department is on the island, and it is necessary not to secretly communicate the situation to the Household Department, so that it can be silently observed and responded.
This is the relevant record of this matter in the Korean official history "Injo Shilu" (Injo Lee, the 16th monarch of the Lee Dynasty of Joseon).
However, the Koreans did not know what happened on Phi Dao, but fortunately, the Manchurian Old File collected the letters of Wang Zideng explaining the matter to the Emperor Taiji, which allowed us to see the whole process of the incident.
Koko arrived at Phi Dao first, but he did not speak Chinese, and in order to accurately convey the meaning of Huang Taiji, Hou Jin sent a messenger (translator) surnamed Ma to Phi Dao.
When the general and five bodyguards walked to Uiju, North Korea, they encountered several Han slaves who had escaped from Houjin. These Han slaves saw that ma Tongshi and his party were all dressed as Han Chinese, and they also carried a few horses of goods, thinking that they were Han caravans, so they went forward to ask for help.
Who would have thought that the five Hu bodyguards had not yet made any moves, and this Ma Tongshi rushed to the Han compatriots who were facing him, and Zhang shot and killed two Han compatriots in succession with a bow and arrow. The other Han slaves quickly scattered and fled, and this Ma Tongshi remembered what he had come to do, so he did not continue to pursue and kill the fleeing compatriots, but continued to hurry.
What Ma Tongshi did not expect was that a few days later, when he stepped out of the gate of the General Soldier's Mansion on Phi Dao, he was crushed to the ground by a group of people and tied up, and the people who kidnapped him were the Han slaves who had escaped a few days ago! These Han slaves escorted Ma Tongshi into the Phi Dao General Soldier's Mansion and testified in front of Mao Zongbing that he was a traitor to Houjin.
As soon as Mao Zongbing heard this, he was furious, and he angrily rebuked: "You have come to talk to Marshal Ben about the internal affairs of the Tartars!"
Then Mao Commander-in-Chief ordered the left and right to fight these slaves out to Marshal Ben!
After these slaves were beaten out of the General Soldier's Mansion, they did not stop there with their blue noses and swollen faces, and they escorted Ma Tongshi to the yellow and medium-colored residence sent by the household department to Phi Dao to complain about their grievances. The Huanghubu mentioned in the PreviousLyuk Records of Injo refers to the yellow medium color.
After Huang Zhongse interrogated Ma Tong, he got the news that Koko was on the island, so he immediately sent troops to arrest Koko and his party! Mao Zongbing, who was originally reluctant to mix with the internal affairs of the Tartars, quickly sent the previous recital to Beijing after learning that Koko had been captured.
What did everyone see from koko's capture?
The code word anyway looks like a bunch of question marks in the heart.
Who brought these slaves to Phi Island?
Who brought these slaves to block the ma tong at the gate of the Phi Dao General's Mansion?
Who made Mao Zongbing so jealous that he did not dare to kill these slaves directly in the General Soldier's Mansion?
Who took these slaves to the yellow-middle-colored dwellings?
Who controlled Koko so that Huang Zhongshi could successfully capture him?
There is no doubt that Huang Zhongse colluded with some real power figure on Phi Island, and they performed such a play for Mao Zongbing to see. Judging from the situation that Mao Zongbing obediently followed the script, it seems that Mao Zongbing has been controlled by this mysterious person and has to accompany the play to finish.
After Koko was escorted to the city of Beijing, it was said that he was also a greedy person who was afraid of death, and he honestly confessed everything. However, in the end, the Chongzhen Emperor gently spared it as if this did not happen, and he not only suppressed the impeachment of the officials in the capital, but also gave Mao Zongbing a commendation for this matter.
Why is that?
Is it true that, as some articles have defended Mao Zongbing, he is trapping Koko?
From a small matter, perhaps we can see the reason why the Chongzhen Emperor handled it this way.
Ma Tongshi died, died on Phi Island. As one of the most important protagonists of this incident, this Ma Tongshi died mysteriously on the eve of being escorted to Beijing.
What does this mean?
This shows that the form of Phi Dao has been reversed, and Mao Zongbing has regained control of the situation. Koko was a noble prince of The Golden Age, and Mao Zongbing did not dare to make him shut up, but the Ma Tongshi who knew the most had to shut his mouth. Mao Zongbing's handling of this is also a signal to the Ming Court - don't force me too much!
The Chongzhen Emperor weighed it up again and again, and finally chose to pretend to be confused.
Then, in his letter to Emperor Taiji, Prince Deng reminded Emperor Taiji how could he abandon the world for this small reason?
What does this world's great event refer to?
Fortunately, Mao Zongbing directly gave us the answer in a letter to Emperor Taiji explaining how he was going to rescue Koko.
Er take Shanhaiguan, I take Shandong, if the two sides attack, then the big thing can be fixed.
This is really a big deal!
However, in this letter, Mao Zongbing's old mistake of opening the river was committed again, and he wrote the letter to The Emperor Taiji directly as his own Tang Bao. Kuo Ke and his gang were soon after the interrogation was taken to Caishikou for execution, Mao Zongbing's letter and the secret letter that the Houjin secret agent in Beijing reported that Kuo Ke was killed, I don't know who arrived first in the hands of Huang Taiji, but Mao Zongbing has been in The Emperor Taiji's heart has become untrustworthy from this time on.
Moreover, in this letter, Mao Zongbing's tone is so great that he and Huang Taiji sit on an equal footing, and it is not a taste to change any leader to see it. In this letter, Mao Zongbing is arrogant and arrogant, and has an attitude of what you can do with me.
How can such an arrogant person be willing to live under others in the future? How could Emperor Taiji tolerate him?
Moreover, this letter is also very special in the seven letters of Mao Wenlong to Huang Taiji recorded in the "Manchurian Old Files", which is likely to be closely related to his death!
After the Koko incident, Mao Zongbing completely let go, and if it is not soft, it will be hard!
Also in July of this Chongzhen year, the King of Deng Lai Dao tried to verify the ruling of the Dongjiang Army at 28,000 people. Mao Zongbing has always claimed that he has 200,000 troops, and when the eunuch party came to power, he did not think about the number of soldiers mao zongbing, anyway, according to the annual salary approved by Dongjiang Town for one year, more than 60% of the 700,000 taels of silver were paid.
During the castration period, Mao Zongbing's life was indeed comfortable, and it should be known that from the fifth year of the Apocalypse (1625) to the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1627), during the three years of Wei Zhongxian's reign, his old man owed a total of 4646641 two to the nine sides of the salary. In the eighteen years from the thirty-eighth year of the Wanli Calendar to the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1610-1627), the Ming court owed a total of nine sides of the silver to 9685571 two.
Therefore, when Dongjiang Town was in power under Duke Wei, it was definitely a border town that received preferential treatment. This data also shows that those who say that Wei Gonggong will fish for silver are not wrong, and he is very good at fishing in his own pocket. As for what Gonggong Wei attaches importance to the big head soldiers who are desperately working the frontier, and the money is to pay the soldiers, please explain the code word first.
As soon as Mao Zongbing heard that he had only calculated 28,000 people for himself, he immediately caught fire, so a suspense case was born in August of the first year of Chongzhen.
In August of the first year of Chongzhen, a large number of warships suddenly appeared on the surface of the Denglai Sea, and the flags on the warships were clearly the banners of the Dongjiang Army! These warships kept floating on the water, and finally disappeared into the blue waves of the Yellow Sea without doing anything.
However, the Ming Dynasty had clear regulations, and without the transfer order of the military department, the troops of each town were never allowed to leave the scope of the town. Therefore, why the warships of Dongjiang Town appeared on the surface of the Deng Lai Sea, this Mao general soldier had to give an explanation to the imperial court.
However, Mao Zongbing's explanation did not come for a long time.
Mao Zongbing's explanation did not arrive, and in November, Yuan (Chonghuan) was in charge of the Dongjiang Army's salary. Originally, the Dongjiang Army was paid according to the standard of the inland garrison, but because the Dongjiang Army had territory in Uiju and could grow its own grain, its life was still passable.
However, with the first month of the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1617), the Dongjiang Army was driven to the sea by the Houjin Army, and the area of the Dongjiang Army's self-cultivation of grain was greatly reduced. Yuan Chonghuan, who understood the difficulties of the Dongjiang Army, then asked the household department to stabilize the military heart of the Dongjiang Army according to the nuclear salary of 40% higher than Guan Ning, that is, 470,000 taels. However, the Ministry of Households did not accept his opinion and only agreed to pay 350,000 taels of salary according to the standard of the mainland.
The two sides quarreled and finally could only hand it over to the Chongzhen Emperor, who was impatient to wait for the return of Mao Zongbing, so he made a big move to determine the original standard of salary - that is, 70% of the inland, or 240,000 taels a year.
Inspector Yuan saw that the emperor could not open the golden mouth and could no longer harden the top, so he played a rogue and slandered the people's Wang Ting to try to calculate the posts in Dongjiang Town, and wanted to report more Posts in Dongjiang Town to Dongjiang to win as much money as possible. As a result, Inspector Yuan not only touched the ash on his nose at the Chongzhen Emperor, but also offended his young master for the first time because of dongjiang town's salary.
After seeing the one-year salary approved by the Chongzhen Emperor for himself, Mao Zongbing finally stopped sitting on the Diaoyutai.
In December of the first year of Chongzhen, Mao Zongbing gave a belated explanation for the appearance of the Dongjiang warship on the surface of the Deng Lai Sea in August.
Mao Wenlong, the commander-in-chief of Pingliao, landed on the island because of his former boat, and Xu Yuqing, a soldier, said that his tracks were suspicious and ordered him to return. Wen Long's words were neglected, because the wind was drifting in, and the soldiers heard that the sand was both suspicious and rebellious, and their hearts were salty and angry. Congratulations.
As a folk version of the Chongzhen Record, the Chongzhen Long Edition was recorded in December of the first year of Chongzhen.
Mao Zongbing this is tough to the end, the front said that it is because of the typhoon, followed by a sentence, the soldiers heard that therefore suspected of being rioted Oh. Where this is explained, it is simply a threat of force.
So the Chongzhen Emperor once again endured and ordered Mao Wenlong to be comforted.
Was the Chongzhen Emperor such a generous man?
Of course not!
This side issued a decree to comfort Mao Zongbing, and that side began to settle accounts!
The Chongzhen Emperor ordered the Hubu to thoroughly investigate the problem of the previous false military titles of the Dongjiang Army, and asked the Hubu to recover the salaries that the Dongjiang Army had fraudulently received since the fourth year of the Apocalypse (1614)!
According to the will of the Chongzhen Emperor, the household department worked overtime overnight to calculate that the Dongjiang Army had received nearly 900,000 taels of silver in the four years from the fourth year of the Apocalypse to the seventh year of the Apocalypse. Therefore, the Chongzhen Emperor decreed that the Dongjiang Army's military salary should first make up for the hole, when to pay off the 900,000 taels of silver, and when the household department could pay the Dongjiang Army!
Hey?
Combined with the approved annual salary of 240,000 taels of military salary, is it not the 470,000 taels per year that Inspector Yuan asked to give to the Dongjiang Army?
Therefore, no matter how many troops Mao Zongbing said he had, in fact, the Ming Court had always been clear about the amount of silver he needed.
Hearing the news that he wanted to return the 'impersonation' of the silver, Mao Zongbing became angry, and this was not a break in pay!
In the spring of the second year of Chongzhen (1629), a large group of 'pirates' suddenly landed on the seashore of Deng Lai. These 'pirates' are well-equipped and well-trained, and the local Ming army is not their opponent at all!
But what exactly this group of pirates did, there is no historical record. Only the official documents documenting this matter are the surviving mao jiuhua of Jiangxi Province. Mao Jiuhua recorded in this article that "now the soldiers landed on the shore, killing and seizing the end of the gap", "and then let the troops go around, roaring and gathering in Mangzhong, rushing to Zi Mo Yuan, and the area around Deng Lai was slaughtered by him for the first time."
Jiangxi is far away from Shandong, so this article must have been published after Mao Jiuhua heard about this matter. From this, it is not difficult to deduce that at that time, the impeachment of Mao Zongbing's song was definitely full of sweat and cattle! However, only one of these shangshu has been preserved to this day, and it is obvious that some people do not want to pass on this matter. However, who would be such a 'cat shit' who destroys the ability to official documents in large quantities?
However, the most interesting thing about this matter is the chongzhen emperor's handling method!
Although the History of Ming says nothing about Chongzhen's second spring, when the Dongjiang army plundered Deng Lai, it still showed its feet. For this incident, this record in Yuan Chonghuan's biography illustrates the results of Chongzhen's handling.
Chonghuan stayed in Zhenningyuan. (Bi) Since zisu was dead, Chonghuan asked to stop (Liaodong) Inspector, and Deng Lai Inspector Sun Guozhen was spared, and Chonghuan asked to be dismissed. The emperor also repays.
Inspector Sun Guozhen of Deng Lai was deposed because of his inability to guard against 'pirates'!
What about Mao Zongbing?
It's still the same as before.
No, it wasn't entirely fine, because emperor Chongzhen's arrangement meant that Inspector Yuan had become Mao Zongbing's direct superior!
The Inspector of the Ming Dynasty was the highest military and administrative officer in a region, and the Inspector and Jingluo were nominally higher than him, but not his superiors. Therefore, before Sun Guozhen was deposed, Mao Zongbing had always been a direct subordinate of Inspector Deng Lai, and was not subordinate to the Jiliao Governor!
This is the official system of the Ming Dynasty, and the current management is more useful than the county officials.
Therefore, originally, if the Jiliao Governor wanted to behead the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town, he had to report to the imperial court for approval. However, with the Jiliao Overseer directly in charge of Deng Lai, the general soldier of Dongjiang Town became a direct subordinate of the Jiliao Overseer, and the Jiliao Overseer only needed to ask out the Shangfang Sword to cut first and play later!
The level of Shang Fang's sword was also different, and Mao Zongbing's Shang Fang Sword was two levels worse than That of Yuan Doushi! Therefore, Inspector Yuan used the Shang Fang Sword to slash first and then play Mao Zongbing, and there was no problem in the procedure!
In other words, this arrangement of the Chongzhen Emperor was obviously to let Inspector Yuan go and collect Mao Zongbing!
As for why Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, the reason given in the Biography of Yuan Chonghuan in the Ming Shi is just a headless and brainless sentence that "when he first suffered something, he wanted to curse Mao Wenlong", saying that Inspector Yuan was in a hurry to kill Mao Zongbing as soon as he took office.
However, the strange thing is that from the course of events, Inspector Yuan does not seem to be in a hurry to clean up Mao Zongbing.
In the leap april of the second year of Chongzhen (1629), Inspector Yuan officially set up a salary division on Juehua Island, and the grain in Dongjiang Town was no longer transferred through Deng Lai, but was transported directly to Juehua Island by Tianjin Wei, and sent to Phi Island after review by the salary division.
Just this month, Mao Zongbing ran to Juehua Island and said that he would go to Ningyuan to see the Overseer. In this regard, Inspector Yuan said, you don't have to be too lazy to run, let's meet at the Juehua Island Food Division.
Is Inspector Yuan's attitude quite anti-thief?
According to the Chongzhen Long Compilation, Mao Zongbing sought out Inspector Yuan for one thing, he wanted money in Dongdongjiang Town for grain, and he said that he went to Deng Lai to purchase grain. I don't know if Mao Zongbing is old enough to have a bad memory, so quickly forgot the fold he gave to the Chongzhen Emperor a year ago, 'crying disease white bone full of ditches'.
When Inspector Yuan heard Mao Zongbing's request, he didn't know what it was like. The reason why Inspector Yuan did not transfer the grain and salary of Dongjiang through Deng Lai was because Yang Guodong, the chief soldier of Shandong, had always been unable to deal with Mao Zongbing, and used his power in his hands to pinch the grain and salary of Dongjiang Town in various ways.
I have separated you from the two wrongdoers, but you want to run to get together?
Moreover, exchanging grain for money was also not in line with the rules of the imperial court, and it was easy for Yushi to catch wind and catch shadows and think that Inspector Yuan had embezzled military food.
I don't know if Mao Zongbing has been a king at sea for a long time, and this absurd demand dares to be mentioned. However, Mao Zongbing was a man with a tendon, and Inspector Yuan did not agree to him, and he kept grinding hard and not leaving, looking like he wanted to celebrate the New Year on Juehua Island.
The general insisted on not returning, not to pretend to pay and deceive the king!
Finally, Inspector Yuan was on fire and directly issued an eviction order. Even if Mao Zongbing's face was thicker than the city wall and the fort, he couldn't wear this big hat of deception.
By the way, here is a clarification, there is a saying that Mao Wenlong is higher than Yuan Chonghuan, and Yuan Chonghuan killed him as a criminal.
Did the person who said this read the book seriously?
In the leap april of the second year of Chongzhen (1629), Yuan Governor was rewarded for his exploits in recovering Jinzhou and appeasing the thirty-six families of Ha Lazi, 'Xu Chunqiu Two Defensive Merits, Plus Prince Taibao, Python, Silver Coins, and Yin Jinyi Thousand Households'.
Mao Zongbing's Zuo Du Du was an honorary title, and so was Yuan Doushi's Crown Prince Taibao, but Prince Taibao was one of the three divisions. Therefore, according to the habit of calling the largest official position, the people of the world at that time should have called Yuan Taibao the Inspector of Yuan.
Back to the point.
It is reasonable to say that if Inspector Yuan wanted to deal with Mao Zongbing, in fact, detaining him on Juehua Island was undoubtedly the best choice, but Inspector Yuan was instead anxious to drive Mao Zongbing back. This move was obviously contrary to what the Ming Shi claimed, that Inspector Yuan wanted to curse Mao Wenlong from the beginning.
However, less than two months later, on June 5, Inspector Yuan killed Mao Zongbing at Phi Dao.
Why was it so sudden, how did Inspector Yuan turn his face faster than he could turn over a book?
Moreover, Inspector Yuan ran to Mao Zongbing's territory to behead Mao Zongbing, so how could he be sure that Mao Zongbing's subordinates would not make trouble?
Codeword believes that this is because in addition to Chongzhen, there is another person who wants Mao Zongbing to die! Moreover, he provided Inspector Yuan with the means to suppress Mao Zongbing's subordinates!
Do you remember this letter, as I said before, it is a little different from Mao Wenlong's other six letters preserved in the "Old Archives of Manchuria".
This letter only has a Manchu translation, not a Chinese original!
So where did the original Chinese go?
Codeword believes that Huang Taiji is not playing a game of peace with Inspector Yuan, and the original of this letter, Huang Taiji gave it to Inspector Yuan as a gift to show sincerity in peace talks. Only this kind of ironclad evidence could force Inspector Yuan to act immediately! Only such ironclad evidence could suppress Mao Zongbing's men!
After all, most of Mao Zongbing's subordinates have a bloody vendetta against Hou Jin, and mao Zongbing and Hou Jin's exchanges are not unheard of and witnessed, but they only do business when they do business, and they also make a lot of silver. However, this letter confirmed the treason of Mao Zongbing, and even the nature of taking them to do business with Houjin was very different. Whether to rebel or draw a line with Mao's general soldiers, they must make a choice.
Presumably, Inspector Yuan also promised to kill only one of Mao's general soldiers, and the rest would not be prosecuted. In order to gain the trust of these generals in Dongjiang Town, the original of this letter was destroyed by Inspector Yuan after it was passed on.
This bridge section, Cao Cheng should be very familiar.
The reason why Huang Taiji did this may still be that he believes that the death of his brother Kuoke was intentional by Mao Zongbing. According to historical data, Huang Taiji is a person who attaches great importance to feelings, and this little brother Kuoke was arranged by him to contact Mao Wenlong, and it is obvious that Huang Taiji wants to give Kuoke the opportunity to make great contributions.
In addition, Mao Zongbing's letter to Emperor Taiji after the defeat of Jin's men was more arrogant than the other. Mao Zongbing's tone clearly regarded himself as a lord on an equal footing with the emperor Taiji, and his letter also revealed his intention to divide one side and establish himself as king.
For Huang Taiji, who is bent on sweeping away the world, how can this be tolerated?
Moreover, Huang Taiji was already planning to bypass the (Shanhai) Guanjin (Zhou) defense line and directly attack Beijing at this time, and the unruly guy on the side of Mao Zongbing was always a time bomb. Therefore, it would definitely be better to dismantle him before leaving, and wouldn't this also create some chaos for the Ming army in Liaodi by the way.
Mao Wenlong is dead, anyway, there will be no loss to Hou Jin, why not emperor Taiji?
Therefore, Mao Zongbing's death was because he was too crazy to know how many pounds he had, and he offended the two biggest bosses of the Later Jin and Ming Dynasties.
He doesn't die who dies?
