After hearing what Li Lu said, Yang Zhen first looked at Li Lu, and then at the other people around him.

He found that the expressions of other people around him were basically the same as Li Lu's, and they all looked at him in confusion.

It seems that Li Lu's words expressed what all of them felt!

Thinking of this, Yang Zhen couldn't help but sigh secretly.

To this day, officials within the Ming Dynasty, including the officers and generals of the Liaodong Frontier Army, still have insufficient understanding of the wolfish ambitions of the Manchu Tatars.

At this moment, outside the Great Wall, there were already a pack of wolves, and the evil spirits were already lining up to call the door. However, inside the Great Wall, the officials and people of the Ming Dynasty were still unaware of the seriousness of this matter.

In the court, some people were so overwhelmed by the peasant army that was resurrected that they had no time to care about the situation outside the customs.

Some people just ignore things that don't concern themselves and are completely indifferent to things outside Shanhaiguan. They can't tell the difference between subjugating the country and subjugating the world. Anyway, the world belongs to the Zhu family, and the Zhu family has to worry about it.

.

Of course, more people, including officials in the court and generals in border towns, seriously underestimated the ambition and appetite of the Manchu Tatars.

They thought that what the Manchu and Qing Tatars wanted was only the land east of the Liao River, and at best, the land north of the Daling River.

Even though the Tatars repeatedly sent large armies into the pass to plunder, they only robbed some people, livestock, gold, silver, and property.

None of them expected that the Manchu Tatars would dare to have the huge ambition to swallow up the entire Ming Dynasty headquarters, two capitals and thirteen provinces!

In their view, although the current Ming Dynasty is in decline and a bit different from what it used to be, it is still vast in land, rich in resources, and has a large population. Where can those barbarians who live in a remote corner of Liaodong occupy it?!

In the future, if the imperial court is unable to continue fighting, the most it can do is hold back and admit that the Tatars occupy Liaodong and recognize the Tatar state established by the Tatars.

At most, in the future, we can follow the example of the former Song Dynasty and bribe the Tatars with some annual coins, gold and silk. Could it be that the mighty Ming Dynasty could really be taken away by the Tatars living in a remote corner?!

Now, it is already the twelfth year of Chongzhen, and ten years have passed since the Jurchen Tatars broke through the border for the first time.

However, people from top to bottom of the Ming Dynasty, regardless of whether they were scholars, peasants, industrialists or merchants, including most of the civil servants and military generals, still held this view towards the Manchu Tatars.

The tragedy of destroying the world is already approaching, but these people are still unaware of it.

Whenever he thinks of this, Yang Zhen feels a kind of sincere depression in his heart.

The Art of War says that if you know yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger.

The reason why the civil and military officers of the Ming Dynasty suffered repeated defeats against the Manchu and Qing Tatars was, fundamentally speaking, that they neither knew themselves nor the enemy.

They neither know their current weakness, nor the vicious nature of their enemies, nor do they know that the catastrophe of overthrowing the country and the world is imminent. They are like a blind man riding a blind horse, approaching a deep pool in the middle of the night, which is extremely dangerous.

Yang Zhen felt it was necessary to explain clearly the wolfish ambitions of the Manchu Tatars.

At that moment, he looked at everyone and said seriously: "The Jurchen Tatars are extremely greedy! Judging from the fact that they changed their clan name and country name, we can see that the ambition of this generation of ugly Tatars is beyond imagination!

"They not only want western Liaoning, they also want the interior of the Guan pass! And they not only want the land of Yanzhao and Beijing within the pass, they also want the entire Central Plains and Jiangnan!

"In fact, in the final analysis, they want to seize the Ming Dynasty and completely occupy the country of the Han people! They want all the Han people in the world to be their covering for the Tatars!"

"What a wishful thinking! Go ahead and have your fucking dream!"

"The Manchu Tatars are just a bunch of ugly pirates from Jianzhou. How dare they think so?!"

"There are more than hundreds of millions of Han people in the Ming Dynasty?! There are only a few Tatars in total, and they dare to think of occupying my powerful Han family!?"

After Yang Zhen finished speaking, it was like a stone causing a thousand waves. Xu Changyong, Zhang Degui, Li Lu, Pan Wenmao, Yang Zhan'ao and others were all shocked and shocked.

Yang Zhen looked at the shocked and uproarious reactions of everyone, and just sighed for a long time, as if he wanted to get rid of all the depression that had been accumulated in his chest for a long time. Then he looked into the distance and said no more.

"Brother Yang! Do you really think that the Jurchen Tatars really have the intention to enter the customs and destroy our Ming Dynasty?! With their little knowledge, these people also want to occupy the beautiful country in our customs?!"

In the past, Xu Changyong was only a mediocre general in Zu Dashou's Liaodong Army. He didn't have much ability, nor much scheming. In the army, he only obeyed military orders and rarely used his own brains.

Think about the "military affairs" Yang Zhen talked about today.

However, this does not mean that this person has no brains and scheming at all.

After all, he had been "dealing" with the Manchu and Qing Tatars on the borders of Liaodong and Western Liaoning for so long. He had seen the number of Tatars fighting more and more in the past twenty years, and the power of the Tatars increasing in the past twenty years.

The bigger the fight.

He just didn't think about it before, but now that he saw Yang Zhen saying such words in an unprecedented serious manner, he couldn't help but murmur in his heart, and couldn't help asking Yang Zhen for confirmation.

Now Yang Zhen, with his performance these days, his status in the hearts of Xu Changyong and others is many times higher than when he was in Ningyuan City before.

No matter how outrageous the words sounded in the past, now that they were spoken by Yang Zhen, they immediately had a different meaning. Xu Changyong and others couldn't help but think about them seriously and treat them carefully.

"There are not many real Tatars! But there are so many Tatars! There are Li Yongfang and Sun Degong in the front, Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming in the back, and Shang Kexi and Tong Yangxing. Are there not enough traitors like these two Tatars?

!?"

After listening to Xu Changyong's question, Yang Zhen didn't look back and directly said what he was thinking: "Let me say something that I shouldn't have said. If one day, the Tatars enter the country and ask us to shave our heads and braid them, and learn how to make money like them."

Rat Tail, serve as a covering for them! Can’t you do this?!”

As soon as Yang Zhen finished speaking, Xu Changyong immediately shouted: "How can such a thing be done!? There is no way to bury the ancestors of the old Xu family!"

"That's it! Our parents have given us our bodies, hair, and skin, and they want us to learn from them by shaving our hair, braiding it, and making money rat tails. Grandma! Let's fight with them!"

"Don't say that it is impossible for the Tatars to take over the Ming Dynasty. Even if there is an eventuality in the future, and they really take over western Liaoning, we will fight them to the end! We will fight to the death!..."

Yang Zhen's words caused a commotion among the crowd around him. Xu Changyong, Zhang Degui, Li Lu, Pan Wenmao, Yang Zhan'ao and others all intervened to express their opinions.

What Yang Zhen said now are actually facts that happened later in history, but no one knows it yet. After he said it, not only did no one believe it, but in the ears of the people around him, it was simply unbelievable.

These people were discussing, and in the end, they all fixed their eyes on Yang Zhen, trying to figure out what Yang Zhen meant by these words and what he wanted to do.

Seeing this, Yang Zhen was also worried about causing misunderstanding among them. He sighed and said to everyone: "I say these words to remind you that the Tatars' withdrawal this time is temporary! They will come back sooner or later!"

"Before, the Tatars have entered the pass several times to plunder, and they already know everything about the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty's pass! Since they already have the intention to seize the prosperous place in the pass of the Ming Dynasty, then they will attack the Guanning area

, especially for the land of pine and brocade that hangs alone in the north, you must be determined to win it, and you will never give up!

"This time we are lucky enough to have solved the siege of Songshan, but it is only the beginning! The more difficult battle to defend the city and defend the territory is still to come! Our preparations will begin from now on!"

After Yang Zhen finished speaking, he paused briefly as he looked at the confused crowd, and finally said categorically: "You all know what kind of person I, Yang Zhen, am! I would rather die standing as an upright Han man than take any easy steps.

Ignorant slaves live on their knees!——

"How can we, dignified Chinese men and Chinese nobles, serve as slaves and aha to the Jurchen Tatars who have turned into barbarians? If the Tatars enter the country in the future, Yang will have no choice but to fight to the death! This intention is clear, and the sun and the moon can
