1468 Kill it

People from several aspects of the court were entangled, and no one could come up with an overwhelming opinion. The final compromise was to send a team of messengers to the north to determine the authenticity of Liu Pei's defeat of Li Zicheng, and at the same time, touch Liu Pei what he thought?

However, although everyone has been unified in sending an envoy team, who will take over the matter has led to endless competition in several aspects! So there is no clear opinion at all!

After the intelligence officers introduced the above, the officers present were stunned! They did not understand how this situation occurred in the Nanming side?

Just as they were sighing, a young officer slapped the table and said, "Everyone, this is a good thing! It means that the temples in the Ming Dynasty are full of wine bags, so we should be the general of the world!"

His words were immediately warmly agreed by the officers, and they all said that the stupider the opponent, the better! But Nan Ming was so stupid that it was rare in the world! So there was no need for them to keep it anymore, so they just showed off their cars and horses, erected up to counter-bud, and seized the world!

When the officers expressed their opinions and looked at Liu Pei with eager eyes, Liu Pei slowly said: "Don't consider going to war with the Ming Dynasty for the time being, give priority to annihilation of the Daxi regime! After all, we were born in the Ming Dynasty, and defeating them in the end was considered to leave them the last sympathy! What's more, you can tell from the way they show in the temple that they can't become a great man even if they survive for a while!"

The officer of the Intelligence Bureau stood up and asked, "Master, how can we deal with the envoy team that will be sent out?"

Liu Pei said without hesitation: "Kill it! It is a fake that you will encounter water bandits or rioters. You must do it cleanly!

An insured officer stood up and said, "But we must guard against the sudden dispatch of troops northward in the Ming Dynasty! After all, they still have 500,000 troops in the Jianghuai area! Although the organizational training of these people is very bad, the number of people is huge after all! Once they go north, we will be in trouble!"

Liu Pei asked: "How many people are we stationed in Xuzhou now?"

An officer immediately stood up and said

"Go back to the Grand Marshal, we have 30,000 people on the front line of Xuzhou. According to current estimates, there is no problem in defending Xuzhou. But it is just a matter of just defending it."

Liu Pei thought for a while and said, "We still have some people in Shandong, and we will draw 10,000 people to strengthen Xuzhou. As long as they can defend Xuzhou."

At this moment, a messenger walked into the conference room and said, "Master. I have emergency information."

The guard immediately took the document and handed it over to Liu Pei. After a rough look, Liu Pei handed the document to the officer of the Intelligence Bureau and announced: "Now it can be confirmed. This time the Ming Dynasty has clarified the date of sending the mission, and the leader should be Shi Kefa."

An officer said: "Will your Intelligence Bureau be wrong? Shi Kefa is the Chief Secretary, how could he do something? This is very strange!"

Liu Pei said: "The information should be correct. This should be the result of compromise between several parties. Or simply say that none of the people in the Ming Dynasty won the victory, which is a result of compromise."

It is not surprising that Liu Pei came to this conclusion at all! Because in history, Shi Kefa, the chief minister, was forced to run to Jiangbei to supervise the army!

In fact, Shi Kefa is a very slow person in politics and has made no achievements in military affairs! Politically, he stood in the wrong team when he was supporting him at the beginning! This is a big mistake!

Originally, there was room for remedy for the matter, but Shi Kefa wrote letters to express his opposition! It was not until Emperor Hongguang ascended the throne that Shi Kefa had to pinch his nose and admit it. And at the last moment, Shi Kefa won the title of Chief Secretary for his qualifications!

But then Shi Kefa caused a new wave! He believed that Gao Jie, Ruan Dacheng and others who supported Emperor Hongguang were all "villains" and should be expelled from the court and let the "righteous people" occupy the court!

His behavior will inevitably be resisted by these people who hold actual power, and even the vested interests of Emperor Hongguang did not support him! So after several twists and turns, Shi Kefa had to go to Jiangbei as the chief minister, which actually means completely expelling him from the court's decision-making circle!

But Shi Kefa did not even come to Jiangbei

What effective response was made? The only thing he did was to pay military salaries to Gao Jie and others!

In history, in just four months after the Hongguang regime was established, the four towns in Jiangbei received 3.6 million yuan in salary! This was equivalent to four months of payment of salary for one and a half years! However, when it was necessary to send troops, Shi Kefa's Biao camp and Gaojie Town Biao were owed military salary!

At that time, Shi Kefa said that the soldiers on the Yellow River this month were still owed food, and the soldiers suffered from hunger and cold! At the end of the year, they could not celebrate the holiday in order to ask for a penny of silver!

This is the case with Shi Kefa's model soldiers, and the soldiers of each town can be imagined! Moreover, Shi Kefa did not control the military power of Jiangbei in time with his own status. The military power was still independently controlled by Liu Liangzuo, the four towns of Jiangbei. Of course, this is also related to these people's efforts to preserve their strength!

Although Shi Kefa did not hold military power, he could always send several reconnaissance troops. However, he still did not send people to investigate north! He just commanded all the troops to station in the local area, and had no idea about Dorgon and his movements.

At that time, when the people of Shandong discovered that the Qing army was weak, many uprisings occurred in various places! However, due to the lack of organization and logistics of the rebels, they never formed a scale and did not connect them in groups.

Shi Kefa's retardation gave the Qing army the opportunity to move calmly! In the following period, the Qing army successively dispatched a large number of Eight Banners soldiers and Han army flags from Shaanxi and Huguang areas to return to Shandong, extinguishing all the uprising troops in Shandong one by one. At this point, the Southern Ming took the opportunity to join the rebel army to fight against the Qing army together!

Although Shi Kefa has the above shortcomings, his integrity is still admirable! To this day, whenever he thinks of his deeds, it is always exciting to be excited! But in this world of great struggle, being honest is not enough, and more things are needed!
