Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 1367 Private talk about Nancha storm ([-])
Although the attitude of the imperial court is the attitude of the emperor, the attitude of the emperor depends on the views of the cabinet most of the time. As the chief assistant of the cabinet, Shen Shixing fully understands how the cabinet usually thinks about this matter. Wang Xijue wants to confuse Li Chengliang. The nature is difficult.

It’s not that the imperial court didn’t understand people, and the cabinet was full of people. The reason why the imperial court ignored Chahar’s acquisition of materials through resale trade and pretended to be confused was because resale trade would increase the cost of Chahar’s acquisition of materials. .Under the circumstances that it is impossible to wipe out all the surrounding forces that trade with it, this situation can be temporarily tolerated, which can be regarded as an expedient measure.

However, if the resale trade ceased to exist, then Ming's "trade sanctions" against Chahar would become meaningless, and it would be unacceptable for Chahar to obtain what it needed at an affordable price.

What's more, Li Chengliang's problem this time is that the traded products are too sensitive, and they are gunpowder banned by the imperial court.

Shen Shixing explained his worries, and then said: "Zhang Xinzhai used to be Liaofu, Wu Huanzhou Jiuli was in the military department, how could these two people not know the advantages and disadvantages? What's more, Gao Qiuzhen has only been back as the capital for more than a year. He is well aware of the situation, and once it is found out that Li Yincheng did it, it will be very difficult for him to escape the scruples."

After Wang Xijue returned to Beijing not long ago, when he heard that the matter was so complicated, he couldn't help frowning, thought for a while, and said: "If this is the case, then we can only start from Li Yincheng for eighteen years. Come to write an article."

It's hard to say whether Li Chengliang cannot live without Li Chengliang for a day, at least Shen Shixing thinks that Gao Wushi doesn't think so.However, Shen Shixing speculated that Wang Xijue's words actually meant something else: it might not matter whether Li Chengliang was the person who controlled Liao.

Among other things, can't Ma Gui be the commander-in-chief of Liaodong?Even if most of the Liaodong generals come from this town, then Cao Yu can also take the top.

What Li Chengliang was truly irreplaceable was not his status as a famous general, but his [-] cavalry.Even if Li Rusong brought [-] troops with him when he became the general army in Shanxi, there would still be as many as [-] left in Liaodong.

These [-] cavalry are the capital for Li Chengliang to settle down, and the real reason why he is "irreplaceable".

Not only is the ability of these 3 cavalry to deter and fight against the outside world irreplaceable, but more importantly, if Li Chengliang is moved, how will these [-] people deal with it.If one fails, there may be a mutiny.

It was common for soldiers in the Ming Dynasty to argue about their salaries, and it was not uncommon to cause "a certain camp riot" at every turn.A few years ago when the Nanjing Zhenwu camp rioted, Xu Pengju, the Duke of Wei at that time, almost spooked himself. Two years ago, when Li Rusong went to Taiyuan to take office, he also encountered it. Easy.

But this kind of commotion was done by the soldiers of the guard, which was different from the riots caused by the elite servants.There is a recent example of elite servants making troubles: the Northwest Rebellion was, to some extent, related to the rioting of the elite servants of Yibai.

The real elite of the Cangtou army that worships is only 4000 people, and a trouble can drive tens of thousands of troops.This is what would happen if Li Chengliang's Liaodong Cavalry was replaced?The [-] troops in western Liaoning may have to change their banners tomorrow.

If such a thing happens, who can afford it?
Therefore, the reason why Li Chengliang is irreplaceable is not that no one in the Ming Dynasty can control Liaodong, but that more than half of the [-] or [-] Liaodong army is bound to him, and many of his cronies have already "owned the city", which is very difficult to control. Li Pinghu, Li Ning, Li Xing, Qin Deyi, Sun Shoulian and others each have their own divisions.

With such a force in Liaodong, how could he not understand if the court wanted to move him?The unfinished meaning in Wang Xijue's words probably refers to this point.

But Shi Shihang felt that this was wrong and unsafe.Although Li Chengliang is powerful, the authority of the imperial court has not been shaken at the moment. If it is just a matter of wages, the [-] troops in western Liaoning may move under Li Chengliang's order, but if they really want to make a fuss in the name of rebellion , I am afraid the situation will be very different.

The point is, even if the [-] troops in western Liaoning were really messed up, would the imperial court really have nothing to do with them?not necessarily.

Gao Yushi was lucky to be his chief minister in the capital. Since he was the "No. [-] literary commander in the world", it was impossible for the three towns of Xuanda, Jizhen, and Caoyu in Liaodong to be afraid of Liaoxi.

The Cao Yu tribe in Liaodong may at best be on the defensive in the face of Li Chengliang, but the four towns of Xuanfu, Datong, Taiyuan, and Jizhou have 60 troops. In addition to Jizhen, which also faces the threat of Chahar, the three towns of Xuanda It is absolutely possible to draw a large number of troops eastward to Pingliao.If it is really a last resort, 20 troops can be drawn out, so what is high pragmatism afraid of?
Regardless of the fact that Li Rusong was temporarily transferred to serve as the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi after the Northwest War, he felt that Shaanxi would also be unstable.Shaanxi has just finished the Northwest War, and it is also in a state of gathering elite troops. After all, Li Rusong's headquarters has only 5000 people, and he is not familiar with the place in Shaanxi. It is impossible for him to cooperate with Li Chengliang in the northwest.What's more, with his personality, it's hard to say whether he is willing to follow him as a traitor.

Of course, the imperial court has its own problems, and the difficulty lies in the lack of money.But counterinsurgency matters are above all else, just like the suppression of the northwest rebellion this year, if you have money, you have to fight, and if you don’t have money, you have to fight.If Liaodong is really in chaos, the ban will be reopened later, or the expected three years will be extended, and it will be ten or eight years or something.

Shen Shixing explained this, and then said to Wang Xijue: "Although I don't know why Gao Qiuzhen is so anxious to solve the Chahar matter, I think Brother Yuan Yu also knows that with the age of the Holy One and Gao Qiuzhen, there is no need to deal with this matter." Impatient. If Emperor Sui Yang built the Grand Canal in accordance with the advice given to him at the time and spent 15 years building it, how could the Sui Dynasty die in the second generation?"

In fact, the Sui Dynasty did not die as the second generation, but it can be counted as the second generation, so Shen Shixing said this.

His metaphor is actually a bit taboo, but Wang Xijue obviously won't pick words with him, but smiled contemptuously, and said: "Can't Yuanfu see it? Gao Qiuzhen is a guy who is eager for quick success. After the battle of Chahar, it will be enough to serve as imperial guard."

After a pause, Wang Xijue narrowed his eyes slightly, and continued: "So, he won't let anything affect the battle against Chahar. For this battle, he was able to take the initiative to take the risk and go straight to Hetao during the Northwest War. Therefore, we can temporarily tolerate Li Yincheng's actions."

This sounds reasonable, and Shen Shixing also felt that during the Northwest War, Gao Pragmatic went straight to the interior of the Hetao, which was a bit risky, unlike his previous fighting style.Originally, Shen Shixing only thought that Gao Yushi did this because the court did not give him enough time, and he had to do so.But after Wang Xijue explained it this way, he realized that Gao Yushi might really be because he didn't want to delay the battle against Chahar.

After all, no one can say for sure what will happen on the battlefield. It is said that it will be a month or two to suppress the rebellion, but it is not impossible to delay it a little bit. As long as the battle situation is well controlled, with his highly pragmatic family, it is impossible for the emperor to treat him for this reason. angry.

In other words, high pragmatism is really "eager for quick success" and is eager to make a huge contribution early so that he can join the cabinet. That's why this series of recent actions took place?
Shen Shixing was a little shaken, and asked ponderingly: "Brother Yuan Yu, what does he mean, is that Gao Qiuzhen won't do anything to stir up troubles in Liaodong before chasing Chahar?"

Wang Xijue said affirmatively, "Not bad."

Shen Shixing asked again: "Then how do you explain Cao Yu spreading this matter out? If Gao Qiuzhen intends to calm down the matter, but Cao Yu jumps out and leaks the word, isn't it causing trouble for Gao Qiuzhen?"

Wang Xijue shook his head and said: "There are two possibilities for this matter. One is that he seeks the truth and is greedy for profit. Although he intends to make peace with others, he still can't help but make a fortune; Really agree."

Shen Shixing frowned: "Did Cao Yu dare to do this without Gao Qiuzhen's consent?"

"It's hard to say." Wang Xijue shook his head again: "Cao Yu is a martial artist, Yuanfu shouldn't think too much of him, he may not realize that doing so is against Gao Qiuzhen's will. Even Cao Yu may feel that he is so clever. It's smart to hold the pipa and half cover your face, you can advance or retreat."

Shen Shixing couldn't help snorting softly: "These people can't lead troops to fight honestly, they have to get involved in things they don't understand at all." But after a pause, he said: "Cao Yan may have made it up on his own. Advocating that he did something wrong, but judging from the high-spirited style of doing things, it cannot be ruled out that he will make mistakes and make mistakes, and he really intends to use this to make a fortune. We still need to prepare early.”

Wang Xijue hesitated for a moment, and said with some displeasure: "Actually, what if we don't get blackmailed by him? His bottom line is there. As long as he doesn't dare to stir up turmoil in Liaodong, we can ignore his blackmail."

Shen Shixing shook his head and said, "Brother Yuan Yu, don't be angry. No one wants to see a deadly situation. Besides, Gao Qiuzhen doesn't have other ways to deal with Li Chengliang's matter."

Wang Xijue frowned slightly: "What can he do?"

Shen Shixing said indifferently: "Li Yincheng is sixty-two this year, logically speaking, he can also become an official, and his eldest son Li Rusong has just made great achievements in the Northwest this year, so it is logical to call back to Liao Town to replace Naifu."

Wang Xijue choked slightly, but immediately said: "But the Tieling Li family was originally a father and son, and now there is one less person, so they are still suppressed?"

Shen Shixing shook his head and said, "What's so difficult about this? Li Rubai is not dead, he is also a general. Give him a deputy commander in chief and let him see the hope of the commander in chief. By then, will others have anything to say? Who? It cannot be said that the court has treated the Li family badly."

Now Wang Xijue really has nothing to say. Li Rubai is definitely not comparable to Li Rusong in terms of military achievements, and it can even be said to be far behind. Out of the emperor's care for their Li family in Tieling.

Coupled with the fact that Li Chengliang himself had a previous life, this treatment is completely reasonable, and it can even show the emperor's generosity and nostalgia.

Wang Xijue frowned and said, "Since there is such a way...Yuanfu, do you think Gao Qiuzhen will just make a fake show and use it to get rid of Li Yincheng and cut off my arm in Liaodong?"

"This is exactly what I am worried about, and it is also because of this that I feel that even if Gao Qiuzhen wants to extort money, it is not impossible to talk about it. The key now is that I don't know what Gao Qiuzhen wants, and I have to wait for him to make a move Just do it."

Wang Xijue frowned and said, "If Gao Yushi didn't intend to cause turmoil in Liaodong, or even considered Li Rusong to replace Li Yincheng, I think this matter will still fall above the Beijing inspection."

Shen Shixing frowned and said, "Take Li Yincheng for Jingchazhong and we give in to him?" As he spoke, he also felt that there was some truth, so he couldn't help hesitating: "It depends on how he wants to exchange."

Wang Xijue said calmly: "The specifics are still unknown, but if I'm not wrong, the focus of the Real School should be on the southern inspection instead of the northern inspection."

Shen Shixing was surprised and said, "How can you see that?"

"How can you kill a chicken with a sledgehammer." Wang Xijue sneered: "This time, even Haigang Peak was sacrificed in the southern inspection, which is obviously no small matter. As for the northern inspection, it is pushed layer by layer. In the end, the person in charge is nothing but a rootless Gu Xiancheng——Yuanfu, haven’t you noticed that the bureaucracy as a whole has been silent recently, and only Gu Xiancheng is jumping up and down alone. If this is not intentional by the Real School, what is it? What is Gu Xiancheng, he can also be in Beijing Sing a unicorn among them?"

Gu Xiancheng couldn't say that he was nothing, but he was really nothing in front of Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue. Wang Xijue despised him because of his status and reputation, but also because of Gu Xiancheng's criticism of his mind.

But in any case, Shenshixing cannot object to his point of view. Gu Xiancheng is not even counted as an official, but because the official of the Real School is "sick", he unexpectedly became the principal of such an important Beijing inspection. Man, is there no problem with this, no conspiracy?

Whether others believe it or not, Wang Xijue did.Now it seems that Shi Shihang also believed it.

Shen Shixing took a deep breath, and pondered, "Nancha...Gao Qiuzhen has been obsessed with Jiangnan for a long time. I don't know if he can't help but want to do it this time."

Wang Xijue sneered and said: "Of course I can't help it. He is an invincible opponent in Jinghua, but he can't use it in the south of the Yangtze River. With his success in these years, how can he swallow this breath? Why don't you take this opportunity to hurry up?" What are you waiting for?"

"Let's do it. I have to know where he plans to go." Shen Shixing looked troubled: "Jiangnan Xinxue officials are everywhere, he can't change them all, that's unrealistic, we It seems that he must have something special to pay attention to, but he can't think of it for a while."
