Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 751 Mutiny
Spreading out the rice paper, Zhu Yihai dipped in the ink and picked up a pen, and began to design the governors of the five armies, the governors of the five armies, the new ten guards admirals in the North Yam, the eight towns admirals in the South Yam, and the admirals of the guards and banner bearers. Ten admirals.

Originally, there were four towns in Nanya, guarding all sides of the capital. Later, after Zhu Yihai considered it, he simply divided each town into two and adopted a small town of 8000 people.

"Jingguo Gong Hussar General Wang Xiang is the left governor of the Chinese army's governor's mansion,

Wu Guogong assisted the great general Wu Kai as the left governor of the rear army governor's mansion,
Zhang Mingyang, the general of Jing Guogong Fuguo, was the left governor of the former military governor's mansion,

General Li Chixin, Duke of Xingguo Hussars, was the governor of the right army and the governor of the left
Chen Guogong assisted the national general Zheng Jiwu as the Zuo Dudu of the Zuojun Dudufu
····
Zhu Yihai wrote down the names one by one.

From Wang Xiang to Wu Kai, and then to Zhang Mingyang, they were all Yuan Congxun ministers, and Li Chixin and Zheng Jiwu were also very early from the dragon and made great contributions.

The emperor then wrote down the names of Ruan Jin, Zheng Zunqian, Liu Mu, Liu Kongzhao, and Zhang Pengyi, all of whom were also meritorious generals, and worshiped as the right governors of the five armies.

The twenty admirals of the Imperial Guards in the North and South Yamen are all confidants of Yuan Cong, Yang Boxing, Wang Mingqian, Ruan Jun, Ma Wannian, Qin Gongming, Zhang Mingjia, Wang Zhongyuan, Zhang Jinjue, Zhang Dabiao, Chen Peng, Zhang Quan, Wu Sheng, Wang Meng, etc. .

Wang Zhiren and Zhang Mingzhen are the two leaders of martial arts, one is the second assistant of the cabinet and the other is the co-organizer of the cabinet.

The names of the ten governors and the twenty admirals were appointed.

Shen Youlong, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, asked the emperor to fill in the vacancies of the selected towns in the imperial camp, and Zhu Yihai directly took out a small book, a small red leather book, from his arms.

This is one of the two notebooks that he has always carried with him since he traveled through time, the red and black notebooks, the red notebook records merits, and the black notebook records demerits.

The higher the ranking in the red book, the earlier it is from the dragon. Behind each name, there are some records, which are written in the emperor's notes after their meritorious deeds.

In front of all the ministers, Zhu Yihai looked through the meeting, and then selected some to fill in the vacancies of admirals, deputy admirals, and general soldiers in the towns of the imperial camp.

The ministers knew the names hand-picked by the emperor.

There are even a few ministers who are no strangers to the little red books. They can often see the two little red books of the emperor. Small books are definitely extremely important.

Although the emperor employs people of all colors, in terms of loyalty and ability, the emperor actually requires both loyalty and ability, but if he has to choose among them, the emperor is obviously more loyal, especially at the beginning of the previous uprising. Many woodcutters who collect firewood, farmers who plow the land, tenants, and even long-term workers, domestic slaves, peddlers, and clerks can be reused in the rebel army, and they have become admirals and lieutenants in a short time.

However, some senior generals such as chief soldiers, deputy generals, generals, guerrillas and other senior generals of the original imperial court who joined halfway are difficult to be reused. After a few years, their military positions may be getting lower and lower.

Just like Zheng Zhilong, Huang Binqing, Wang Chaoxian, Jin Shenghuan, etc., when they joined Zhu Yihai, they were already very high-ranking, and they were even leaders of a town. However, they have not been really reused in the past few years. Governor Hou was granted the title of Governor, and was later conscripted into the cabinet as a pilgrim minister, and even served as the governor of the imperial camp, etc., but he had no real power. Up to now, he only holds a few honorary titles.

This time, the ten governors of the five armies' governor's mansion were all unnamed, and the twenty admirals of the imperial guards of the northern and southern yamen were still unnamed. The provincial admirals and imperial admirals in each province were naturally even less likely to use them.

Now that the country is stable and the Central Plains are restored, Zhu Yihai will obviously treat those generals more and more differently, from Long Yuanxun will be further reused, and those who have surrendered halfway, even surrendered to captives, bandits and chieftains, etc., if these people start a family like this Those who have performed well for several years and have outstanding abilities will be observed by the emperor.

And if the warlord's habits do not change, or the ability itself is not outstanding, it will be gradually eliminated by the emperor.

The Shaotian Dynasty is neither short of soldiers nor generals. What it lacks now are generals who are loyal to the emperor, loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and able to fight and obey the imperial decree and military orders and understand the rules.

The Wufu model in the past in the late Ming Dynasty does not work now.

Be smart, follow the trend and current situation, and support the present, then even if you transfer to the provincial camp, village town, or even group training, or even downgrade to use, as long as you behave better in the future, you can still be safe and sound, and the past is over.

If you really have the ability, even if you are demoted, you can always shine brightly and be reused.Or if you have self-knowledge, simply resign voluntarily, or transfer to a civil position, or simply go home, and the court will give you a severance payment, and the emperor will naturally give him an extra reward so that he can become a rich man at home. Next, you can also win some opportunities for your children and grandchildren, and become an official or an internal guard.

In the past few years, the emperor has always paid attention to the cultivation of his direct descendants. Although he also accepted the surrender of various people such as Shunying, Xiying, Tuzhai, Yijun, Tuanlian, Tusi, Jiangjun, etc., he treated them cautiously. , Even if you confer high officials and noble titles, you still have a distinction in your heart.

It's like Jin Shenghuan, who belonged very early, returned with half of Jiangxi and tens of thousands of horses. Naturally, he has never been able to become the direct line of the emperor.

When the emperor became stronger and stronger, he finally took action against Jin Shenghuan, Zhang An, Wang Deren and other ministries in Jiangxi. From the beginning of the siege on all sides, at the end they directly disbanded their troops and scattered these small hills.

Jin Shenghuan and the others are typical representatives. There are still many people who are not as strong as him. They are basically recruited first, then mixed with sand, and then disbanded. Finally, they are completely annexed by the imperial camp, and the mountain is flattened.

Such as Jin Gongyu, they were originally Huzhou Rebel Army, Zheng Jiwu was Haining Rebel Army, and Lu Xiangguan was also Taihu Lake Rebel Army.

The emperor integrated their troops into the imperial camp through various means, and they were relatively cooperative, so each of them has now become the emperor's direct confidant.

And people like Huang Binqing, Wang Chaoxian, Zhang Guozhu, and Gao Jinzhong have never been able to become the emperor's confidantes, because they failed to actively move closer to the emperor, and they always wanted to keep the mountain. His own people on the top of the mountain were rejected by the emperor from his confidantes, and now they are in a rather embarrassing situation.

As for the Zheng Zhilong brothers, his one-official party used to be the hegemony in the southeast sea, but under the emperor's attention, it is now completely disbanded, and the one-official party has been divided. These have basically become the emperor's confidantes. Like Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Cai, Zheng Zhibao and Zheng Zhilong, they basically have only empty titles and no soldiers.

The soldiers and ships of the Zheng family in Fujian were basically reorganized by the imperial camp now. The official party is actually gone, and most of those people are still there, but the mountain is gone.

The emperor has always been like this, and he will not trust those people easily. Whenever he has the opportunity, he will mix sand and so on, and finally level the mountain completely.

Of course, in recent years, although the emperor's military victories have made the emperor's doing these things relatively smooth, it does not mean that every time a decree is carried out smoothly, the game inside is for outsiders to see. less than.

But it is still very complicated, and even provoked countless mutinies.

Huang Binqing once directly confronted the Son of Heaven, and the Zheng family also obeyed and violated. The Wuzhong in Huguang rebelled, the chieftains in Hunan, Guizhou and Yunnan rebelled, and the army chiefs in Guangxi resisted the edict and supported the separatist regime.

There are also too many generals in Sichuan, who led troops to mutiny, and so on.

Yunyang Wang Guang'en rebelled, Longwu's army Zhang Anyu rebelled, and many generals who joined him repeatedly jumped back and forth.

It's just that none of them succeeded.

The emperor has quelled too many such rebellions over the years. The key is that the imperial camp did not make the mistake of recruiting randomly. Although there are many soldiers and horses recruited, they will actively take some precautions. This is very important.

On the one hand, the emperor recruited troops from all walks of life, gave the attached soldiers a very good official position, even reissued food and rewards, and at the same time transferred some soldiers, sent some confidantes there, and carried out some reorganization. The ability to resist has also become limited.

As for those who were beyond reach, the emperor also tried his best to appease them. For example, in the past, Jin Shenghuan, or Geng Zhongming, He Hongqi, Mi Layin and other foreign towns, first granted them as foreign towns and gave them a lot of autonomy. Send people over little by little.

When the time is right, we will reorganize and collect rights little by little.

The original Shunying was reorganized in this way.

It is impossible to become arrogant warlords like Zuo Liangyu and Liu Zeqing in the Shaotian Dynasty, like in the end of Chongzhen or even the Hongguang Dynasty.

From the very beginning, the emperor rushed to become the largest army leader, so he took extremely strict precautions against other army leaders. He recruited and reorganized them whenever he had the opportunity, and did not allow them to maintain their independence at all.

If the opponent is strong, the emperor will act more gently. If the opponent is weak, he will directly annex and reorganize.

When the emperor dealt with these non-directed forces, he not only wooed them to fight against the Qing Dynasty, but at the same time guarded them extremely strictly, and his intentions were no worse than dealing with the Tartars.

To fight against the outside world, we must first settle down inside, which is what Zhu Yihai believes very much.

If you can't integrate the internal well, then no matter how good the strategy or plan is, it's useless, because it's impossible to execute.

Apocalypse Chongzhen Dynasty's strategic plan to deal with Houjin, many of them are actually very good, but because of lack of execution, they are all castles in the sky.

Whoever wants to play with Zhu Yihai in the separatist rule of the feudal town and the dictatorship of the warriors will have a long life.

Now after the recovery of Guannei, although Zhu Yihai has also begun to discuss with the ministers about the Northern Expedition of the Great Wall and the pursuit of the remnants of the Tartars, but at the same time he has already started to arrange for the reorganization of Guanlonghe Shuowai Town.

He Hongqi, Wu Dading, Wang Yongzhen, Milayin, Ding Guodong and other towns outside Guanlong will complete a comprehensive reorganization in the future, and the imperial battalion will go to Shaanxi and Gansu. To enter the dynasty.

Even if it is a town in various places, this time it is necessary to take advantage of the trend and reorganize it in order to gain stronger control from the imperial court.

The Northern and Southern Forbidden Army, the main generals of the imperial camps, provincial camps, and towns of the provinces underwent a major change, and even directly abolished several troops, and the decree was issued.

Just three days.

Eight hundred li rushed the army to report to Beijing. Because of this decree, more than a dozen mutinies took place in Shandong, Hebei, Liaoxi and other places, basically all of the ten towns commanded by Ma Guozhu and Tu Guobao. Basically all the troops will be cut and reorganized. Many will be eliminated directly. Many generals may be transferred to the second line of the provincial battalion, or even the third line of the township. Some even have to go back to Beijing to study. There are also former veterans who came from the army, and some who were originally recruited by the Qing army from the green battalion. Anyway, the composition is complicated.

The emperor was still not used to the weather in Beijing, nor was he used to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. He hadn't slept well for a few days, but he didn't panic at all when he heard the news of the dozen or so mutinies.

"Unexpectedly, I thought they would jump out two days earlier, but I didn't expect to raise the flag three days later."

"The speed is a bit slow, and there are only a dozen or so troubles, which are a little less."

Originally, a dozen or so mutinies were quite serious, but Liu Chao was still very worried when he reported them. Who knew the emperor was so calm.

Zhu Yihai called Wen Anzhi, the prime minister, and there was no need to discuss anything. He tried a new flintlock gun while confessing, "Let the towns calm down, wait a little longer, let those who want to jump back show their heads, and then we will clean it up together." , once and for all.”
