Chongzhen killed Yuan Chonghuan to self-destruct the Great Wall? Mao Wenlong's beheading is a tragedy, and retribution comes so quickly

author:Economic History Words

Rank, welcome to reading history according to the calendar.

When Yuan Chonghuan was mentioned at the end of the Ming Dynasty, many people said that Yuan Chonghuan's death was the best manifestation of Chongzhen's self-destruction of the Great Wall, and if Chongzhen had not won the reverse plan of Hou Jin and killed Yuan Chonghuan, then the situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty might not have been so unbearable.

If Yuan Chonghuan is left, it is very likely that the rise of Houjin is just a bubble, but looking carefully at this history book, we can't help but say that it is Not so much Chongzhen who self-destructs the Great Wall, but rather that it is Yuan Chonghuan himself who self-destructs the Great Wall. It's stubbornness.

Chongzhen killed Yuan Chonghuan to self-destruct the Great Wall? Mao Wenlong's beheading is a tragedy, and retribution comes so quickly

In today's terms, this person is really special and has a special personality, and he can't rub sand in his eyes, and many commanders like such soldiers very much.

Everyone thinks that only capable people have character, capable people you can stubbornly get up, if you don't have any ability, who do you stubbornly show, who can tolerate your stubbornness.

Therefore, in the workplace, there are also many business elites who feel that I only need to do my business well, as long as I do a good job in the business and can pull a lot of orders, then I can walk sideways in the company, I can be stubborn, and I can not put anyone in my eyes.

But let's talk about it this way, often because of such low emotional intelligence, these people have a very sad ending, and even drag your entire unit, the entire company's entire group will usher in a huge disaster because of your stubbornness.

Many people admired Yuan Chonghuan's answer with Chongzhen at that time, and Chongzhen asked Yuan Chonghuan, saying that Houjin has been rising for a long time, and the military expenditure we spend on Pingliao every year is a few million taels of silver, do you have any way?

Yuan Chonghuan said to Chongzhen at that time, "Your Majesty, you can rest assured, if you use my words, I promise to pingliao for 5 years, and I will solve all the Houjin for you in 5 years."

Chongzhen told the truth at that time, not long after becoming emperor, he was not yet 20 years old, and although he said that as soon as he came to power, he solved the Wei Zhongxian group, but this did not mean that Chongzhen had a very rich experience in governance.

If it is an old-fashioned monarch, such as Zhu Di, Yin Chan, hearing Yuan Chonghuan's words, then immediately have to ask the left and right staff to blame twenty to drive out of the gate, what you said is nonsense, Hou Jin has risen for decades, the strength is very strong, why do you say that 5 years will be pacified, your boasting of Haikou, not only is it not beneficial, but it is harmful.

However, at that time, Chongzhen was young and vigorous, and did not have much experience, thinking that if he engaged in a loyal minister and a capable minister, he would be able to avoid his merits in a battle and completely solve the Houjin.

Therefore, listening to Yuan Chonghuan's words was Longyan Dayue, so that later Yuan Chonghuan wanted what to give, the official made a wish, by your full power of the chief Pingliao, give you the title of Bingbu Shangshu, give you the Sword of Shangfang, give you all the support, is to let you pingliao for 5 years.

However, did Yuan Chonghuan, who had all the support of Chongzhen, do anything above Pingliao? The biggest thing he did, we can say, is to self-destruct the Great Wall, and it is precisely because of this matter that Yuan Chonghuan was sent to the dead end.

What did Yuan Chonghuan do? Beheading Mao Wenlong, Mao Wenlong gathered tens of thousands of horses at that time, claimed the throne on Phi Dao, and already had the feeling of this warlord, and almost all the generals under Mao Wenlong's tenure were surnamed Mao, all of whom were his own family.

It was no longer the army of the Ming Dynasty, but Mao Wenlong's personal army, which also consumed hundreds of thousands of silver taels in the imperial court every year, and such a person should not be killed, of course, it should be killed.

But the question is whether mao Wenlong can kill Liang Mogong at that time, whether it is collusion with Hou Jin or not, Chongzhen knows it or not, he knows it, he knows it, but the problem is that Mao Wenlong's existence has a very, very huge effect on containing Hou Jin, so even if Chongzhen is the emperor, you have to endure.

Remember, being a politician has a very, very important job, that is, forbearance, no haste and forbearance, what is politics? Politics is about making more people and less people.

Sometimes you know that this person is not dealing with you, and sometimes you know this person, and the ideological outlook on values and outlook on life is different from yours, but the problem is that even if he has any use, you should pull him to your camp, because he may not be able to play a good role in your camp, but he will definitely play a bad role in other people's camps.

Chongzhen basically understood this truth, so even if he knew that Mao Wenlong had such and such problems, he still tolerated it, but Yuan Chonghuan couldn't bear it.

Yuan Chonghuan meant that I and the emperor boasted about Haikou, 5 years of Pingliao, then the whole Affairs of Pingliao, the matter of attacking Houjin, I am the supreme commander, how can I tolerate you Mao Wenlong on Pi Island, on the one hand, do not listen to my dispatches, on the other hand, I heard that I followed Houjin and frowned.

Therefore, Yuan Chonghuan's eyes are not able to rub sand, at this time, let's say so, if a commander with high emotional intelligence is sent, he may use all kinds of ways to persuade and absorb Mao Wenlong, instead of killing him in such a simple and bright way.

But unfortunately, Daming met such a Yuan Chonghuan, Yuan Chonghuan did this very beautiful thing, into his camp to kill his marshal, when Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, Mao Wenlong's side of more than a dozen generals were around, that is both his deployment and his relatives, but no one dared to resist, even the intercessor in the end.

Yuan Chonghuan did this job perfectly, Cang lang lang pulled out the Shang Fang sword, and told Mao Wenlong's deployment, if any of you think I should not kill Mao Wenlong, you can come up, I commit suicide to show you whether it is good or not.

Who dares? To oppose Yuan Chonghuan is to oppose the imperial court, Yuan Chonghuan also wrote a letter to Chongzhen after killing Mao Wenlong, and at the end of the letter, he also said, according to the reason, I have no right to kill this general, and people also hold the Shangfang sword given by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, but I have a promise with the emperor, 5 years to pingliao, so after 5 years if I can't ping Liao, how can I kill Mao Wenlong, please how the Chongzhen Emperor kills me.

Chongzhen received this letter, it is said that he was furious, what happened to you Yuan Chonghuan, you want centaurs to give people and horses, you want silver two to silver two, you want power I even give you the Shangfang sword, the first thing you did, you killed Mao Wenlong first, even if you escort him to the capital, you let me make a decision.

But the situation chongzhen faced at that time was that he had no choice, he gave power to Yuan Chonghuan, Yuan Chonghuan gave him the expectation of 5 years of Pingliao, and Mao Wenlong, this wood has become a boat, people have died, then what can you do? Tie Yuan Chonghuan to Beijing, kill Yuan Chonghuan again, then who will fight Hou Jin.

Therefore, Chongzhen was really called knocking down his teeth and swallowing blood at that time, not only could not punish Yuan Chonghuan, but also had to order him to praise him, but Chongzhen had written down this matter, and this thorn had already been pierced in his heart.

And more importantly, Mao Wenlong's death not only caused Chongzhen to be estranged from Yuan Chonghuan, but more importantly, it made Emperor Taiji completely worry-free.

Emperor Taiji easily did not dare to leave the old nest at that time, he knew that as soon as my brigade went out, Mao Wenlong came to sneak attack, Mao Wenlong had twenty or thirty thousand people in his hands, and now it was good, Mao Wenlong was killed, although Yuan Chonghuan seemed to have appeased Mao Wenlong's many deployments on the surface, and also made a wish to seal the officials, and also rearranged the army, and also said that the grain would definitely be given in the future.

But the question is, the soul of an army is dead, and it is so inexplicably dead, can you expect Mao Wenlong's deployment to do anything else?

Later, after the Manchu Qing entered the customs, a total of several Han princes were sealed, except for Wu Sangui, there were three people who were all Deployed by Mao Wenlong, if it were not for Yuan Chonghuan's killing of Mao Wenlong, these people would not have died for the Manchu Qing.

Moreover, the retribution came so quickly, Yuan Chonghuan had just killed Mao Wenlong on his side, and the Emperor Taiji's side immediately made a deployment, and the soldiers bypassed Shanhaiguan and came from Inner Mongolia to directly attack the capital.

Although it is said that after learning of the crisis in the capital, Yuan Chonghuan struggled to return to the division to rescue, and finally fought a bloody battle with Huang Taiji under the city of Beijing to protect Chongzhen's safety, but Yuan Chonghuan's tragedy began, if it were not for you killing Mao Wenlong, would Huang Taiji have the courage to directly attack Beijing? If Mao Wenlong is still there, do you Yuan Chonghuan need to return to The King of Qin for thousands of miles?

What is more crucial is that for Chongzhen, all these events were caused by Yuan Chonghuan, who originally took over the great treasure, drove away Wei Zhongxian's people, and worked very diligently as emperor every day, and the government and the public praised him a lot, just because you Yuan Chonghuan, a person, let the whole city of Beijing be shrouded in the threat of being destroyed by people.

So later some people said that this emperor Taiji was very clever, read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, read the chapter of Jiang Gan's book theft in the "Heroes of the Crowd", thought of a divisive plan, and released the eunuch, telling the eunuch that he and Yuan Chonghuan had reached an agreement, which eventually led chongzhen to take Yuan Chonghuan into custody.

But the question is, do you really think that Daming, the Manchu Dynasty, is eating dry food, and such a clumsy counter-plan can fool Chongzhen? What is more crucial is that from the arrest of Yuan Chonghuan to the real sentence of Ling Chi to death, the time has passed for more than half a month and a few months, no matter what kind of anti-plot it is, it can be investigated clearly, for Chongzhen, this thorn has long been rooted in the heart.

If you can really pingliao for five years, then it is enough, you not only do not have five years of pingliao now, but also led the soldiers to the city of Beijing, although you fight to the death, but the problem is that if you do not kill Mao Wenlong, where is such a thing, so it is not Chongzhen who self-destructed the Great Wall, it is Yuan Chonghuan who first self-destructed the Great Wall and killed Mao Wenlong, which doomed him to the tragedy of this life.
