The Soul of the Han Dynasty in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 156
That night, Sun Chengzong's camp also sent many memorials to the capital, and the civil officials and military generals with direct access to heaven all wrote the memorials. This is their right and their obligation.

Yushi and Geshizhong usually need to make a report when they hear the news. Now that such a big event has happened, the civil servants and generals present did not report the report. If it is light, it is negligence of government, and if it is serious, it is dereliction of duty.

The next day Liubaili urgently sent a copy of the memorial to the Forbidden City. Of course, the diligent emperor would not let go of any Liubaili urgent memorial. He turned pale with anger just after reading the two sealed memorials.

Chongzhen murmured: "Zhuzi dare! There is no law."

Wang Chengen, who was standing by the side, heard the emperor's anger and shrank his neck in fright, not even daring to breathe.

Chongzhen suppressed his anger, read the memorials sent one by one, and finally read the memorials of Zheng Guochang and Qin Liangyu carefully three times, thoughtful, and gradually calmed down.

To be on the safe side, he dug out Ma Shilong's memorabilia and looked at it carefully, and he had a steelyard in his heart.

The appearance of the "Red Banner Army" in front of Chengtianmen came to mind that day, and those sturdy knight emperors have never been forgotten.He said to himself: "Checks and balances are very important! The 'Red Banner Army' has too few troops, and it is not enough to check and balance Liao Town."

He looked at Wang Chengen and said, "Wang Banban, there are only a thousand men in the Yongping garrison who dare to disrespect Zu Shaobao. What if he has thousands of troops under his command in the future? I can still entrust him Is it a heavy responsibility?"

Wang Chengen is so smart, how could he dare to answer such a sharp question, he immediately knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, slaves dare not discuss government affairs indiscriminately."

Chongzhen needed someone to discuss it urgently, so he lost his sense of propriety for a while, and actually asked Wang Chengen's opinion, he smiled and said nothing.

The next day, Chongzhen immediately convened the platform of important ministers to discuss the matter. The cabinet ministers and the six ministers had already learned about the conflict between the "Red Banner Army" and Liaozhen.

There are also people who think that Liaozhen should be taught a lesson. Most of them are ministers who did not or disdain to get a share of Liao's salary. Wen Tiren, Liang Tingdong, etc. are the representative figures.

The Son of Heaven spoke up: "Dear dear ones, there was a conflict between the Yongping Garrison Camp and Liaozhen at noon yesterday, and there was a big fight, killing hundreds of soldiers. How should we deal with this matter?"

Liang Tingdong, who had already prepared the draft, immediately played: "Huang Han was young and frivolous, and he was indeed biased in handling things, but there was a reason for his loyalty and bravery. He is not afraid of power. Liaozhen's coquettishness is now too big to lose. Few people dare to look coldly at Zu Shaobao. There are very few of them."

Chongzhen said calmly: "It's not just cold-eyed? He dared to meet with soldiers. It's a fact that Liaozhen lost a lieutenant general!"

Liang Tingdong said: "No, no, last year Zu Shaobao was coerced by his subordinates and ran out of Shanhaiguan without knowing it. This shows how confused this person is. This year, Deputy General Zu was also confused, and was accidentally built as a slave post." The horse attack was in vain. Your lord supervisor has already explained the situation."

Liang Tingdong's words were rather humorous. If these important officials hadn't already cultivated to become elites, they might not be able to hold back their laughter.

But everyone understood the voice, which caused Chongzhen and many ministers to think deeply, and Zu Dashou's actions came to everyone's mind one by one.

At the end of last year, Dongnu soldiers approached the city, and the capital panicked. It was the time when the imperial court needed elite soldiers to fight to the death, but Zu Dashou ran away with the [-] to [-] Guanning troops that the imperial court relied on most. I can't accept it.

At this time, Liang Tingdong brought up the old incident intentionally or unintentionally, which naturally pushed Zu Dashou to the opposite side of the court.

Wen Tiren, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, in the whole world, is it the land of the king, and the shore of the land, is it the king's ministers. I think Zu Dashou is really confused. After this lesson, he must be more sober.

Sun Dushi handles things vehemently.This matter should not be investigated in detail, His Majesty can order Huang Shoubei to punish him accordingly, but he will never be lightly forgiven if he commits a crime again. "

Zhou Yanru, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, came out of the class and said: "The minister seconded the proposal. It is not uncommon for the friendly army to be indistinguishable from the enemy when the incident suddenly occurs. It is not uncommon for a chaotic battle. When the state employs people, Sun Dushi handles state affairs in this way. , very kind. As for how to deal with Huang Shoubei, I think it is most appropriate to demote him and keep him."

Chongzhen thought for a moment and said: "Huang Hanmu has no respect and fined his salary for one year, and dropped it three times in a row to warn others. This matter will not be discussed anymore."

Many ministers understood the emperor's attitude. Although Huang Han was only punished, the intention of partiality was clearly revealed. After all, the losses of the "Red Banner Army" were limited.

Although Huang Han has changed from the third rank to the fourth rank, what does it matter?He is still on Yongping's defense, and he is also the general of the 'Red Banner Army'.

Zu Dashou died, a lieutenant general's cousin was beheaded, and hundreds of Ding Ding lost all his face.

Wen Tiren and Liang Tingdong were more aware of the emperor's attitude towards Liaozhen, and understood that gradually weakening Zu Dashou's strength in the future should be able to cater to the holy will.

The top priority of the imperial court is to regain the lost land. At this time, the efficiency of military affairs is quite high. The punishment for Huang Han will arrive on the third day. If he caused such a disaster, he will only be fined and demoted for one year. This shows how much the emperor favors the "Red Banner Army" ".

Qin Liangyu and Zheng Guochang breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the imperial decree. They really didn't want to see Tiqi come to arrest Huang Han. Now that the dust has settled, the catastrophe of the conflict with Liao Town has finally come to an end.

Zheng Guochang had figured out the attitude of the Holy Son of Heaven towards Liao Town, and even Qin Liangyu knew it.

Huang Han felt that wage deductions and demotions were superficial, and that the vested interests of the "Red Banner Army" were not harmed in the slightest. Such a punishment showed that the Holy Son of Heaven still valued himself very much.

When Sun Dushi assigned the task, he didn't make it clear that Zheng Guochang's troops would be the main attack. After all, Zheng Guochang's troops were less than half of the main force. Yongping Fucheng was a big city with high walls and thick walls.

Sun Chengzong did not demand to seize the city in one fell swoop, but only asked Zheng Guochang to restrain the Houjin army stationed in Yongping from rushing to help when the main force attacked Luanzhou.

On May 5000, the Baigan soldiers, the Sichuan army, the "Red Banner Army", and the [-] troops originally stationed in Fengrun County were all dispatched and moved to Shaheyi to approach Yongping Fucheng. The total number of people was less than [-].

All the existing troops of the "Red Banner Army" went to Shaheyi, and the more than [-] infantry who had been stationed in the refuge were led by Huang Yong to Kaiping Town.

All the people in the refuge have gone down the mountain. Most of them have followed Huang Yong to settle in Kaiping, and a small number of them have taken risks to take care of their own fields.

The common people who are harvesting and planing in the soil have big eyes. They not only have to sweat like rain, but also always guard against the shooting and killing of the stragglers of the Jin army.
