Hong Chengchou did not dare to refuse Zhao Xing's request. The two teams joined forces to continue westward. However, although the two Shangguans seemed extremely intimate, the two teams were clearly separated. Although the Tiqi tried to be as low-key as possible, Hong Chengchou's subordinates still respected them like ghosts and gods. The only one who had only met He Caizi was afraid of the heavens and the earth, he didn't know where he hid. Zhao Xing wanted to dig Hong Chengchou's corner, but he could not find anyone.

Faced with this recognized intellectual and military personnel of the Ming Dynasty, the pillars of the Ming Dynasty, and the later traitor Hong Chengchou, Zhao Xing was full of sympathy and humbly seeking advice.

There are actually various versions of Hong Chengchou's treason, some say he is afraid of death, and some say he is lustful, but Zhao Xing always believed that Hong Chengchou had to surrender to the Qing Dynasty out of his despair of the Ming Dynasty and even more so that he had to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. This is exactly the same as the Sanshun King, and is completely opposite to Wu Sangui, and is essentially different.

The Sanshun King surrendered to the Qing Dynasty out of his loyalty and dissatisfaction, and used the Qing Dynasty to avenge his adoptive father Mao Wenlong.

Hong Chengchou was captured and on a hunger strike. Finally, he heard Chongzhen sacrificing himself as a living person. When he knew that he was not dead, he was angry and embarrassed and killed his whole family, and finally surrendered in despair.

But after he surrendered, he took advantage of the opportunity to be highly valued by Huang Taiji. After being promoted to Grand Secretary, he was responsible for the war in the south. He adopted the march strategy of "fostering the main and suppression as the auxiliary" to pacify the south of the Yangtze River at a relatively low cost. At the same time, he suggested that the Manchus "learning Chinese and learning Chinese" to downplay the differences between Manchu and Han. Under the promotion of Hong Chengchou, the continuity of traditional culture was guaranteed, and all ethnic groups gradually lived in harmony.

Sun Yat-sen, the founding father of the country, deeply felt his achievements, praised him with a poem: "The five tribes compete for the great festival, and China will be shining. No one knows the great achievements of life. On the day of returning to the Central Plains, the Han dynasties remained for a long time. Wen Xiang made a strategy and An people changed their clothes."

For this person with a tragic and sad fate, Zhao Xing hopes that he can change his destiny history.

I have missed a Mao Wenlong who has changed his destiny, so I must not miss this person anymore.

Along the way, of course we should talk about the trilateral military and Yang He’s policy of treating bandits.

"I don't agree with Yang He's policy of simply dealing with Shanxi and Shaanxi bandits. Too kindness means being weak. At the same time, it is also unrealistic and cannot solve the real problem." Zhao Xing said his views on the chaos in the northwest.

Hong Chengchou felt a kind of tacit understanding of Zhao Xing like a soulmate.

"But Lord Hong's blind killing is too tyrannical by Xiaguan. After all, they are all from the Han people. You should be in love with blood. Now you and Lord Yang He are just two extremes, one goes over the right and the other goes over the left."

After hearing this, Hong Chengchou could only smile bitterly: "Don't I know that this method can harm the world and kill too much? But I am helpless, so I am so sorry."

Zhao Xing nodded with a smile: "I understand the lord's difficulties."

Hong Chengchou asked curiously, "How do you understand the difficulties of being criticized by me?"

Zhao Xing's expression became serious and heavy, and he looked at the land that was barren for thousands of miles away: "The reason why the northwest has been so troubled to this point is a natural disaster. In the eyes of the Xiaguan, natural disasters can be saved by themselves, and ** is the most fundamental. The harsh government is more powerful than the tiger, and this is the key."

Hearing Zhao Xing's statement, Hong Chengchou sighed and expressed his acquiescence. "Has I not put forward my idea of ​​the current Northwest policy? But the entire Northwest officialdom is actually rotten, and he is even more controlled by Geng Ruqi, and he is unable to support himself. If it is too intense, it will be incompatible with the entire officialdom and will be incompatible. At that time, the official will be kicked out of the Northwest and will be completely powerless to do anything about this situation."

Zhao Xing nodded: "Sir is a good official, but he is not a stubborn man who is not a cliché. Only those who are good at adapting and protecting themselves can do something real for this dynasty and the world."

Regarding this evaluation, Hong Chengchou looked at Zhao Xing and suddenly felt like he wanted to cry. He grabbed Zhao Xing's hand and murmured with his lips tremblingly: "Thank you for understanding."

Zhao Xing shook his hand: "You and I fell in love with each other at first sight, and they all want to struggle to do something for the court and the people in this dark and corrupt officialdom. They can be said to be a soulmate. In this way, please let me respectfully call you brother."

Hong Chengchou nodded sincerely: "See the wise brother."

After the two of them were closer, Zhao Xing said again: "Although my brother's methods are based on supplementing Yang He's policies, it is my brother's vision. But brother, those so-called bandits are actually people of the Ming Dynasty. They were forced to survive and took the path of rebellion. In fact, they have no intention of rebellion at all, so you must admit this."

Hong Chengchou smiled helplessly: "Jianxian is right, but these people have been surrendered. After eating all the food we gave him, they are still desperate. When they get used to rising up, they will still rise up again. This repetition will not only prevent the situation in Shanxi and Shaanxi, but also strengthen them. In the end, one day will reach a point that will be out of control. Can't Brother Jianxian see this?"

Zhao Xing smiled: "Don't I know? Those people cannot survive and rise up. After recruiting the people, they still cannot survive. They can only rise up again. Is that true?"

Hong Chengchou nodded heavily: "Yes."

"But what if we give them a way out after we recruit them?"

Hong Chengchou smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Brother, don't you know that as long as those refugees can survive, even if they can have half a bowl of porridge every day, they will not go on the road of rebellion. Unfortunately, we have no way to live for those refugees, so that they can become the people of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhao Xing smiled confidently and said, "You don't have it, but I have it, brother."

When he heard that Zhao Xing had a way to let the people who were recruited have a follow-up livelihood, Hong Chengchou looked at Zhao Xing with the words "Don't believe it": "I have been in the northwest for many years and have a clear understanding of the current situation in the northwest. I have been thinking about it day and night but can't think of a way to implement it. Do you have it? How could you have it?"

Zhao Xing smiled and asked back: "I guess my brother wants to stabilize the situation in Shanxi and Shaanxi. One is to release refugees into Zhili, Henan, Hebei."

Hong Chengchou nodded calmly: "But the officials in Shanxi and Shaanxi firmly disagree with the emperor in order to show their political achievements. However, officials in Zhili and Henan and Hebei impeached me for the crime of harming their neighbors and firmly disagree with the entry of refugees. What can I do?"

"The second one is to transfer grain from Jiangnan into the northwest to provide relief and disaster relief."

"After all, I have been in Jiangnan for many years and have some understanding of Jiangnan. Although the north has a severe drought, the weather is strange, and the south has been ripe for many years. Now the brown rice in the south is only four cents per stone, and some places are three cents. The phenomenon of low grains in the grains have occurred. If the grains in the south are transported to the northwest and complement each other, it will actually benefit the world."

Zhao Xing smiled and shook his head: "But the South firmly rejected your idea, because you can't afford that much money, but you don't have money, and the South will just save several times, right?"
