Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

The whole territory of the guards in western Liaoning was recovered, and the Jian captives who invaded western Liaoning withdrew, and the war between western Liaoning and southern Liaoning came to an end.

But Emperor Chongzhen did not relax his vigilance.

It seems that the pattern of Liaodong has changed, but whether the pattern can be stabilized is the most critical thing.

To this day, the Dongjiang Army led by Liu Xingzuo is active in the area of ​​Zhenjiang Fort and Kuandian Fort, and has not submitted any new battle situation to the capital.

Emperor Chongzhen was most concerned about the reasons for the retreat of the Jianlu army led by Daishan and no longer invading western Liaoning.

What's more, there are still many problems to be solved urgently in retaking Liaoxi from Jianlu.

"Your Majesty Xu Guangqi, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

While Emperor Chongzhen was meditating, Xu Guangqi, who was out of breath, rushed to Qianqing Palace and bowed his hands.

make.

The situation in Liaodong has changed, and some things have to be done.

The Liaodong Governor's Mansion led by Sun Chengzong is the most cutting-edge link, but from a strategic perspective, Emperor Chongzhen wants to set the tone for the Liao Dynasty.

Containing the forces of Liaodong generals, clarifying the stability of the order in Liaoxi, and blocking the follow-up conquest of the Jianlu Eight Banners must be clarified as soon as possible.

"Xu Qing, read this military newspaper first."

Emperor Chongzhen calmed down, picked up the military newspaper, handed it to Wang Chengen, and said to Xu Guangqi: "The Jianlu army that invaded western Liaoning has withdrawn. The stalemate in the past can be said to be over."

"!!!"

When Xu Guangqi heard this, he showed a look of astonishment. Xu Guangqi couldn't believe what the emperor said. It was all true.

Holding the military newspaper in his hand, Wang Chengen walked towards Xu Guangqi quickly, but Xu Guangqi didn't go to get it for a long time, for fear that what he just heard was false.

Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting firmly on the dragon chair, saw the scene in front of him and did not urge him. Xu Guangqi's reaction was normal.

After all, under the frequent battles between Liao and Jianlu, the Ming Dynasty won too few victories. Most of them were rubbed on the ground by Jianlu, so that the city and territory continued to fall, and countless civil servants, generals, and athletes were killed.

Time passed minute by minute.

The East Nuan Pavilion was extremely quiet.

Holding the military newspaper in his hand, Xu Guangqi read it line by line carefully, for fear of missing a single word, but the agitated look on his brow betrayed his heart at the moment.

"There is no need to say congratulations."

Seeing that Xu Guangqi was about to raise his hand in a bow after reading the military newspaper, Emperor Chongzhen said, "I called Qing's family here to discuss matters concerning the orderly withdrawal of the guards and the establishment of the government in the newly recovered Liaoxi guards.

All the land under the rule will be compiled into official land, and in the form of low-interest leasing of Xuntian, so that all the soldiers of the various armies participating in the war can lease the corresponding acres of land. What do you think of the Qing family? "

Xu Guangqi: "..."

Xu Guangqi was a little taken aback by what the emperor said.

This is to abolish the Liaoxi Weisuo and govern the Liaoxi with prefectures and counties, but if this is the case, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble.

However, thinking about what the emperor said before, the Liaodong generals existed before Liao, Xu Guangqi also knew that the emperor did this to contain them, and at the same time maintain the stability of Liaoxi in another form.

"West Liao was occupied by Jianlu for nearly ten years. Now the imperial court has recovered this area, promoted the withdrawal of guards and set up a mansion, and organized the land into official land. There is no dispute."

Xu Guangqi pondered for a moment, then frowned and said: "After all, all the groups in the west of Liao, who did not escape to the front of the Liao Dynasty, betrayed Ming Dynasty and served under Jianlu's command. The court must pay close attention to the punishment of such groups.

It is necessary to confiscate their property, land and other things to offset the food and salaries consumed before the Liao Dynasty.

However, if this matter is really done, the various armies defending the Liao Dynasty, including the imperial court, will cause a lot of controversy and opposition.

After all, in the area of ​​the Gyeonggi Garrison, when the Military Aircraft Department promoted this matter, although it was proceeding step by step, there were still many opponents.

However, there are generals and schools such as Ma Shilong, Hou Shilu, Man Gui, Zhao Shijiao, and You Shiwei, who are stationed in various important towns guarding the capital, which also makes the guards under the jurisdiction of the Jimiyong Sanxie, and the officials of the guards think It is unlikely that it will be possible to cause disturbances and cause military chaos to stop what the court has decided. "

"That's what worries me too."

Emperor Chongzhen frowned and said: "The various armies defending the Liao Dynasty, and the group of generals and schools under their jurisdiction, at least half of them are generals and schools from the Liao region.

Even if the imperial court wanted to severely punish those traitors in western Liaoning, they would all be escorted into the customs and sent to various places in the customs to receive reform through labor, so that there would be no disturbances in western Liaoning.

However, if these generals and schools of the Liao people knew that the imperial court was going to withdraw the garrison and set up a mansion, they would inevitably be dissatisfied. Once they did something behind the scenes, it would be difficult for Sun Chengzong to ensure the stability of Liao'an. "

Emperor Chongzhen must severely punish the traitors who served as Jianlu in western Liaoning. Searching family wealth and land properties was the first step.

The simple and rude implicating the nine clans is really too cheap for these traitors.

These are all free labor.

Emperor Chongzhen planned to send these groups of traitors to the Ming Dynasty into Shanhaiguan in batches, and spread them to the prefectures and counties under the rule of Beizhili, and use decades of hard work to atone for their sins.

"If Your Majesty wants to facilitate this, Sun Chengzong's Liaodong Governor's Mansion must actually control enough to deter the troops in front of the Liao Dynasty. In addition, if you really want to withdraw the guards and set up a mansion, this group of local officials must also be added in place."

Xu Guangqi pondered for a moment, then said: "To ensure the stability of Liaoxi, the soldiers guarding Liaoqian must stay in Liaoqian sincerely.

What His Majesty said is that in the form of low-interest leasing of Xuntian, the soldiers of the various armies participating in the war can all lease the corresponding acres of land. This idea is very good.

How many years can be leased.

Whether it can be implemented concretely.

If there is not a group of reliable local officials who are responsible for this matter in western Liaoning, then I beg your majesty not to withdraw guards and set up a government in western Liaoning easily. "

Emperor Chongzhen narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "The Qing family felt that in the Beizhili Disaster Relief Office, a group of officials with outstanding performance should be selected and sent to western Liaoning.

He was transferred to the Liaodong Disaster Relief Office, given corresponding honors, conferred the titles of "trial" county magistrate, master book, etc., and acted as county magistrate.

If you can make achievements under the rule, you will be promoted as appropriate at that time. If you can't make achievements, you will be dismissed from the honor and temporary position. "

Xu Guangqi's face changed slightly, revealing an expression of surprise, and he looked at the serious emperor. If this matter is true, it will definitely cause trouble in the court.

After all, these officials sent to the west of Liaoning did not orthodoxly pass the imperial examinations and obtain corresponding honors before entering the official career of the Ming Dynasty.

"This matter will be done in private first."

Emperor Chongzhen continued: "I will issue a secret decree to Lu Xiangsheng, governor of Zhili, asking him to select a group of outstanding officials and prepare to go to western Liaoning.

At the same time, I plan to send the Four Guards Battalion to the west of Liaoning, and put them under the direct control of Sun Chengzong's governor's office. When the defense line in the west of Liaoning is stabilized, I will ask Sun Chengzong to gradually promote this matter.

If there are any disputes and objections in the court at that time, I hope that the Qing family can help Sun Qing mediate in the cabinet. Since Liaoxi is recovered, it can no longer be taken away by Jianlu. "

"The minister obeys the order!"

Xu Guangqi bowed immediately.

Yan Yingyuan, Chen Mingyu, Feng Houdun, Fang Yizhi, Chen Zilong, Xia Yunyi, Li Yan, Song Xiance, Niu Jinxing, Gu Junen, and Du Yinxi.

You can't just stay in the Disaster Relief Office. Emperor Chongzhen will promote them in batches and let them enter the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty. They will truly be officials and share the worries for him, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. However, the premise of doing this is that they must be tempered. To be completely remodeled.
