"What? The Tatar army almost broke through Shanhaiguan?!"
After hearing the news, Lin Xu was shocked!
"Yes! When Sun Kezhong, the governor of Liaodong, heard that the Tatar army was coming, he was so frightened that he fled without fighting. He led his army to hide in Shanhaiguan and ignored the people outside the pass! Therefore, the Tatar army seemed to be in an uninhabited country.
There was wanton killing and looting outside the customs! Hundreds of thousands of Liaodong people were either killed or taken away as slaves! There were corpses floating for hundreds of miles and starvation everywhere. It was simply too horrible to watch!"
Li Jiuyuan was so angry that he slapped the table and continued: "What's even more hateful is that Sun Kezhong, a scum who is greedy for life and afraid of death, later explained the matter to the court on the grounds of lack of military pay. With the support of Yan Dang, Sun Kezhong not only escaped
He was blamed for the crime, and even transferred to the left minister of the Ministry of War!"
"A high-ranking official in a feudal territory has the responsibility to protect the territory!"
"Sun Kezhong lost hundreds of miles of territory and caused hundreds of thousands of people to die. Not only did such a sinner for thousands of years not receive any punishment, he was even transferred to the capital and sat in the temple!"
"The reason is because Sun Kezhong is a fellow villager of Yan Shoucheng and a die-hard Yan Party member!"
"The disaster caused by the Yan Party is already like this!"
"If this continues, is there any hope for this world?!"
After listening to Li Jiuyuan's words, Lin Xu remained silent!
He has also heard about what Yan Dang has done. From the bottom of his heart, he doesn't have a good impression of Yan Dang. However, because of Yan Ning, he can't say anything bad about Yan Dang. After all, Yan Dang's
The core characters are Yan Ning’s father and grandfather!
"As the chief minister of the cabinet, Yan Shoucheng did not think about how to enrich the country and strengthen the army. Instead, he just flattered the emperor and protected members of Yan's party. At the same time, he excluded dissidents and framed Zhongliang! Now, in order to raise money, he is forcing us to
The people of Jiangsu have changed rice to mulberry, completely disregarding the life and death of the people! With such treacherous ministers in power, what hope does our Ning Dynasty have?!"
Yang Dingyuan got even more angry and scolded Yan Shoucheng by name!
"So, the imperial court is forcibly promoting this rice variety in the name of raising military pay?"
Xu Changlin said with a solemn expression.
"According to the information I have learned, although the imperial court has not used this caliber to push this matter, once we Jiangsu people rise up to resist, there is no guarantee that the imperial court will not use this as an excuse to suppress people!"
Li Jiuyuan said worriedly.
"If the imperial court forces this matter in the name of raising military pay, then even if enough raw silk can be produced, woven into silk, and sold to Nanyang merchants! But how much of the final profit can actually be used for military pay?"
Lin Xu asked.
After hearing this question, everyone fell silent again!
After a while, Yang Dingyuan smiled coldly and said, "Humph, with a traitor like Yan Shoucheng in charge, I think the profit from selling silk will most likely go into the pockets of their Yan Party!"
"In all likelihood, it may be a bit exaggerated, but they will definitely take away a lot of profits! As for the root cause of the Yan Party's disaster, it is still in the palace!"
Li Jiuyuan stretched out his hand and pointed upward.
"Sir, do you mean the Emperor?"
Yang Dingyuan is not afraid of heaven or earth, he just opens his mouth and asks! This chapter has been completed!
