"Although Huang Taiji beat Lin Danhan away and cleared one of his enemies, he carried a heavy burden."

Chongzhen smiled proudly: "Although there are tens or 20 million Mongolians who defected to him, they seem to be strong, but under the strong blockade of the Qing traitors in our country, the mouths of these and 20 million people have become a huge burden for him."

"Yes, no matter who it is, the ultimate goal is to follow the boss and drink spicy food with him. As a result, you can't even drink cold water now. So why are you doing with him?"

This is true. The Mongolian grassland only produces cattle and sheep, but does not produce anything else.

Those herders eat beef and mutton all day long, which is definitely not the kind of enjoyment that modern people imagine, but is deadly.

Eating beef and mutton all year round will make your body single and you will eventually die of bloating.

In order to solve this problem, the tea, salt, and even dried pickles in the Central Plains were really blocked this time under the control of several capable frontier generals.

It is precisely from this blockade that the great power of economic war is reflected.

Now, from North Korea, it extends to Xinjiang in later generations. Whether it is land or coastal, it has really been possible that there is no grain of food or tea, even a green leaf, and it cannot be spread to the north.

Zhao Xing ordered the soldiers who strictly guarded this line of defense: "I will give you enough food and salary, and you will fulfill your responsibilities. As long as one person lets a lost merchant out of the border, I will chop your head; as long as one person dares to put a caravan out of the border, I will chop your whole family."

Under the shock of carrots in one hand and butcher knife in the other, no one dared to let those smuggled people out of seclusion. Economic blockade depends on national strength and on the other party's economic dependence on the country.

It is precisely their unfortunate that the Ming Dynasty's court not only occupied 70% of the world's industrial output value, especially the bitter and cold surrounding areas, which occupies their absolute lifeline. This is the foundation and advantage of natural economic sanctions.

Such an economic blockade made those grassland people feel extremely painful. Based on the principle of finding a boss in difficulties, they could have begged for mercy from the Ming Dynasty, but now they must have the only one to ask Huang Taiji for help.

"Where are the areas where Huang Taiji can solve these urgently shortages of materials? There are only southern Liao and central Liao. If we destroy these two pieces, we don't have to deal with Huang Taiji. Those Mongols who converted to them will eat him."

Chongzhen clapped his hands: "Yes, if we destroy his supply base and completely let him collapse financially, it will be twice the result with half the effort."

Chongzhen empathized with the financial collapse and the huge harm.

"You must have a new idea, let's talk?"

"Weichen is preparing to arrive at Dongjiang Town in the beginning of next spring and launch a plan to regain Liaodong. It may not necessarily regain Liaodong, but as long as it recovers Liaonan, they can cut off their material production base."

Chongzhen clapped his hands: "It's great. This not only regained our territory and cut off their material production bases, but also made it impossible for them to extract strength and invade the capital again. This is really a killing of one fell swoop."

Then he asked solemnly: "What should I do when you go there?"

Zhao Xing also solemnly proposed: "Faced with the domestic situation, the emperor, what you should do most is not to do anything. The bandits entering Henan will delegate power to Chen Qiyu. You must not overstep your command, and you must not believe in the words of those villains who impeach him. People will not fail, and you must allow Chen Qiyu to fail."

He was giving Chongzhen a vaccination.

"I listen to your advice. I am only responsible for coordination and not personally directing it. This is a complete set."

Zhao Xing bowed to Chongzhen: "What is the responsibility of the emperor? It is to use people, use the right people, and the rest is to delegate power and let them play freely. It's like I go to Dongjiang Town at the beginning of next spring to launch an attack on Huang Taiji. If you sit in the capital, even a small flag of mine will be directed and asked about it, I will never win this battle."

Chongzhen laughed: "The failure of the Song Dynasty's wars was because the emperor was far away from the sky and had no idea what terrain and condition was ahead. But he had to strictly take out a formation map and let the soldiers in front execute it. This is like the micro-super master Jiang Guangtou you mentioned, who eventually lost all his money."

Zhao Xing breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as the emperor understands this principle, does not talk about military affairs on paper, truly believe in the abilities of those chief officials and the loyalty of military generals, he will be invincible."

"So how will it work after you arrive in Liaodong?"

Zhao Xing solemnly replied: "It's just a decision before the opportunity, but the empress may have to do it. The emperor will not accept the orders of the outside king! Then please understand."

Chongzhen took the chopsticks and knocked on the table: "Yes, yes, yes, I just said, don't talk about it on paper. I've made another mistake and I'm fined three glasses of wine."

Then I promised solemnly that I will no longer interfere with the details, I will only wait for your victory news.

This meal will bring joy to the king and his subjects.
