Chapter 361 Calling Dayong to Beijing

Wen Huadian had a war of words with all the ministers, once dismissed Ke Dao and vice constitution, and after the ex-assistant Zhou Yanru was imprisoned, Chongzhen became more and more majestic in the hearts of officials. At this time, he was angry. Silent, no one dared to speak so as not to touch the tight string in the emperor's heart.High-quality updates are in

In the end, it was Xu Guangqi who felt that it was not a problem to be so quiet, so he said: "Your Majesty, Cao Wenzhao has led 500 people to fight against more than [-] bandit troops in Huozhou since the Yansui General Army moved to Shanxi General Army. , Killed the first bandits, Zhuantian Harrier and Shangtianlong, and the bandits collapsed. Immediately, they sent their troops to the north, and beheaded the bandit leader Hunshiwang in Shouyang, and wiped out the bandits in Wutai, Dingxiang, and Yushe one after another. Then they went south and entered Henan. They also successively recovered Shexian County and Huaiqing, beheaded the leader of the bandits, Gundilong, etc. He Huchen, the commander-in-chief of Ningxia, also wiped out the leaders of bandits such as Yicheng, Xue Hongqi, Kaishan Axe, etc. Zuo Liangyu, the deputy commander-in-chief of Henan, also killed Feitian Sheng, Hun Hailong captured Shangshan Tiger, and Li Bei, Ai Wannian, Tang Jiuzhou and others also led their troops to join forces. I thought that the bandit army escaped from Shanxi to Henan and Hebei because they had gained a foothold. Compared with last year, this bandit force It will never be the same again, so don’t worry too much.”

"Mr. Xu Ge is right," He Ruchong nodded repeatedly, and said, "Cao Wenzhao and others used troops too ruthlessly in Shanxi, forcing them to kill all the way without stopping. , don’t worry about it at all.”

These words completely misinterpreted Xu Guangqi's original intention, Wen Tiren glanced sideways at Heru Chong, and said: "Your Majesty, Cao Wenzhao from Shanxi, Zuo Liangyu from Henan, Tang Jiuzhou, etc. are all first-class good generals, how can the thieves be opponents? After the defeat, the army was defeated and fled to Henan and Hebei. Those who approached Jifu were only a small group of rogues who were in a hurry and were vulnerable. Your Majesty can rest assured."

But Chongzhen snorted: "It's easy for you to say, but I don't think it's necessarily true!" [

All three of them were taken aback, not knowing what Chongzhen meant.

Chongzhen said sullenly: "I think this thief was not driven to Henan and Hebei, but was killed there! First, Zhang Zongheng's five thousand soldiers chased and suppressed them every day, and they attacked east and west. However, Li Bei, Ai Wannian, and He Renlong were kept on the sidelines. Later, Xu Dingchen surrounded the Linxian bandits, but Zhang Zongheng transferred Li Bei and Ai Wannian away, leaving only 2000 people in Zhang Yingchang. Then Zhang Zongheng was in Henan Two thousand "Mao" soldiers were recruited and planned to join the joint suppression campaign in Shanxi. However, Xuanmo, governor of Henan Province, refused to move on the grounds that he did not fulfill the purpose of the joint suppression campaign and did not dare to cross the border. The high-quality update was followed by Xuanmo's suggestion that the three provinces join forces to encircle and suppress In the west of Shanxi, the soldiers of Shanxi chased and suppressed from the east, in the east of Jin, the soldiers of Yu went west, and in the middle of Jin, the soldiers of Jin invited to attack. Do you understand?"

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Wen Tiren observed the Holy Will, and roughly understood what the emperor wanted to say, "The governors guard the counties and towns, with the intention of keeping the city safe, so that they can avoid responsibility for accidents."

"More than that, what they want is to protect the environment and harm the neighbors, and to attract the disaster! Huh, that bandit plundered the forest, why attack the city! This kind of anti-theft is really the same as a burglary! Also, it is just a cover-up! Xu Dingchen said With 30 bandits, five out of ten will be wiped out, three out of ten will be disbanded, and the remaining two tenths will be settled in a short time. Zhang Zongheng said that he will return to his death and that Zijin Liang will be seriously injured. I know this is all a false report!"

"Your Majesty is holy." Wen Tiren said, "Suppressing thieves and reassuring the people, the governor, the governor, and the commander-in-chief all have responsibilities, and it was not appropriate to divide them among each other. Since they are called thieves, they were originally oriented, and they only regarded our soldiers as brave and cowardly. Sit on the sidelines because of responsibility and division of things? Supervising and approving the division of troops will not be distracted."

"They thought I didn't know their intentions, hmph, they really underestimated me." The dark cloud on Chongzhen's face persisted, "The cabinet drafted an order to reprimand them early, and let them know that I am not a fool."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will prepare it now." Wen Tiren hurriedly agreed.

"The matter in Henan should be decided by Xuanmo early. The lost land of Weihui's three mansions must be regained as soon as possible, and the bandits from all over the country must not be allowed to join together. The place should be peaceful as soon as possible, and this year's tax will be exempted."

"Chen Qiyu has been in office for a few months, why has there been no movement for so long? I saw a few governors shouting there, but he, the governor of the five provinces, is calm. If it continues like this, what do I want the governor of the five provinces to do? But the plan he submitted last time, I think it is feasible, and I will transfer all the elite soldiers and generals he needs. Tell him, just draw up a complete charter according to this plan, and I will look at it again."

"The cabinet drafted it directly, and I didn't read it. I'll ask the supervisor of ceremonies to approve it directly."

Chongzhen issued two more verbal orders, and Wen Tiren also wrote down them one by one.

After making three orders in one go, the dark clouds on Chongzhen's face began to dissipate, and he felt a lot more relaxed in his chest, "Well, not only Liaodong soldiers can fight, but Shaanxi soldiers are also brave and good at fighting. Cao Wenzhao did not live up to my expectations. Zuo Liangyu has also done a good job. What Daming lacks today is good generals. These two should be of great use. High-quality updates are here.”

Seeing Chongzhen's cheerful tone, the three of Wen Tiren couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and echoed a few words.Chongzhen was delighted to hear this, and suddenly frowned again, "It's just that southern Hebei is an important throat, and Shunde is a large plain. There is no danger of rivers and mountains as a barrier, and you can go straight to the capital for thousands of miles. The thieves who have reached Xishan, Shunde, and Zhending what to do?"

"I thought we could send the Beijing camp to help." Wen Tiren had already thought of a countermeasure.

"I think we should urge Cao Wenzhao to move his army to suppress it." He Ruchong followed up and said, "Or Hong Chengchou can send out a group of elite soldiers. Anyway, the territory of Ningxia has been established, so it is useless to keep so many elite soldiers."

"The daimyo should be ordered as soon as possible, and the prefectures and counties of Baoding should dispatch troops to intercept the bandits in Xishan, Shunde, and Zhending. Yang Sichang can be responsible for it." Xu Guangqi added.

Chongzhen thought for a while, nodded and agreed: "That's it, order all parts of Henan to deploy defenses quickly, and ask Cao Wenzhao to go to Beijing quickly, and let Ni Chong and Wang Pu of the Beijing camp lead [-] Beijing battalions to aid with the rank of governor-general. .”

After hearing this decree, Wen Tiren, He Ruchong, and Xu Guangqi hesitated at the same time. After the Lantern Festival at the beginning of the year, the court ordered Ni Chong and Wang Pu to lead five thousand soldiers from the capital to northern Henan to suppress the bandits at the request of King Lu. However, the men and horses did a lot of damage to Northern Henan. They never fought a battle with the bandits.Now that the emperor is going to send them again, the three of them really have no idea, but they dare not directly say that the Beijing camp is not good, and the second general is not good.

In the end, Wen Tiren said: "Your Majesty, Ni Chong has made great achievements in the frontier, so he can be made a commander in chief. Wang Pu only inherited his father's prestige and shared his merits. He has only been in the Beijing camp for half a year, and he has been promoted to the rank of commander in chief. I am afraid he will never tire of popularity. Zuo Liangyu, Zhang Yingchang, and Tang Jiuzhou have all fought hundreds of battles, but their rankings are far below them, and they are afraid to hear about it and slack off.”[

"Well," Chongzhen thought it was reasonable, "Zuo Liangyu and Zhang Yingchang are the commanders-in-chief of the military affairs department. And" Chongzhen thought about it briefly, "Yang Jinchao, the eunuch of the Qianqing Palace, and Lu Jiude, who supervised the army."

He also ordered the eunuch to intervene in military affairs, Wen Tiren sighed softly, not wanting to be heard by Chongzhen, and asked him: "Why are you sighing?"

How could Wen Tiren dare to say it clearly, and he said in a hurry: "Your Majesty ordered the ministers to supervise the army to record merits and demerits, to urge food and pay, and to supervise the army's horses and horses. But in front of the two armies, there are human hobs and guns. The general rushes to kill, how can he care about the ministers? But if I don’t care about my ministers, once something happens, how will I explain it to the sage? I’m afraid it will be difficult to win the battle if I care about one and lose the other. So I think that the army that is facing the enemy can delay the dispatch of the supervising army.”

"Huh! Which army doesn't fight? What's the use of raising it if it doesn't fight?!" Chongzhen didn't like people to make irresponsible remarks about the inner ministers and supervising the army. There were not one or two officials who were dismissed for this. Hua Dian also talked a lot, and now Wen Tiren, the chief assistant, wanted to express his dissatisfaction with the ministers and supervisors in different ways. He couldn't help raising his eyebrows in anger, and said coldly: "The thieves must be wiped out within three months!" After finishing speaking Throwing down a booklet, "Do it, return it!"

The three of them came out, went back to the cabinet, and opened the booklet to see that it was a proposal from the Ministry of War, "Henan soldiers stationed in Zezhou can assist Gaoping and the eldest son in the north, Lingchuan and Lu'an in the east, and Yangcheng and Qinshui in the west. Although Qin, Jin, and Henan are divided into land and people, they are still one body and cannot be seen from each other. Qin soldiers, Jin soldiers, and Yu soldiers attack from three sides, and it is safe." The three planners have seen this plan before, and the following is Chongzhen's Zhu Criticism , is just written:

The governor and Fu are ordered to hunt down the thieves. Wherever the bandits and thieves gather to succeed, they are all responsible for annihilating and suppressing them. Where can they be divided?But since the thieves are divided into shares and entrenched, they should use their troops according to the situation and win by flanking.Work hard and make detailed plans, plan simultaneously at the same time, attack together, and clarify early.In case of bandits running away, they still have to pursue and help each other, and attack and sweep with all their strength.The merits and crimes of all civil and military officials in the industry are integrated, and there is no way to shirk the blame, so that they are wrongly convicted!If you protect the environment and harm your neighbors, you will be punished for the crime of indulging a thief!

Wen Tiren closed the booklet and said admiringly: "The emperor is the emperor after all. Although he is young, he has sharp eyes and sees these courtiers in his heart."

Xu Guangqi was puzzled, and asked in confusion: "How does the emperor know that Xu Dingchen and Zhang Zongheng are falsely claiming meritorious service?"

Wen Tiren laughed twice, and said: "Naturally, it was reported secretly by the ministers of the supervising army, so Lord Shoufu proposed to delay the dispatch of the supervising army, and he was very displeased."

"The emperor is thinking about the goodness of the internal ministers to supervise the army, so we can't be too contradictory. Fortunately, the situation is acceptable, and it will not be a bad thing to send some internal eunuchs." With Zhou Yanru's lesson, He Ruchong didn't want to be here anymore. Whatever mistake the prisoner made, the emperor can do whatever he wants. The phrase "I have a ghost in my heart" is not a momentary statement of the young emperor.

"But what about Denglai? Gao Qiqian needs a class teacher."

When He Ruchong mentioned Denglai's matter, Wen Tiren sighed distressedly, "It's up to the Emperor to decide on Gao Qiqian's side, so let's not interfere. This Shi Dayong is a headache."

"A few excerpts came over, and Zhu Dadian also spoke for him. This conspiracy of treason is unlikely to exist. According to the rules, we will be rewarded for it." Xu Guangqi looked at Wen Tiren, "The credit for Jinzhou's great victory has not yet been paid. Reward him, this time he has made a great contribution, and the credits add up, how will the imperial court reward him?"

"What does the emperor say?" He Ruchong was more concerned about the emperor's thoughts.

Wen Tiren shook his head, smiled wryly and remained silent.

Seeing this, He and Xu knew that this matter was still on the cabinet's shoulders, and they couldn't help but feel headaches.

After a while, Xu Guangqi thought of an important matter, and asked He Ruchong: "Have the people sent to Liaodong come back?"

He Ruchong shook his head and said, "No."

"Have you found anything?"

"It doesn't matter if they can't be found out. Once Zu Dabi dies, what hope does the Zu family have?"

"Then call them back in the name of the cabinet, so as not to chill Shi Dayong."

"Where is the emperor?" It was the emperor's order to send people to investigate the cause of Zu Dashou's death outside the customs, but Wen Tiren wanted to withdraw the people, He Ruchong couldn't help but feel a little worried. [

Wen Tiren didn't care and said, "I'll talk to the emperor myself."

Wen Tiren is the first assistant, he said so, He Ruchong couldn't object, so he kept silent.

Xu Guangqi also agreed to withdraw the people, nodded and said: "It's good to transfer people back, there is still time, anyway, the Jinzhou Army will stay in Dengzhou for the time being, and the rest of the rebels must be wiped out before they can go back to Liaodong. Time, the court will not be too passive."

He Ruchong hesitated for a while, and said hesitantly: "Since Li Kong and Erni are dead, the rest of the party will not be able to make a fortune if they think about it, should Shi Dayong go back to Beijing to have an audience?"

This proposal was a bit sudden, and Wen Tiren was taken aback, but thinking of the gossip circulating in the capital recently, he nodded and said: "Alright, Denglai's affairs are really a bit 'messy', and asking him to return to Beijing to explain will also help the outside world. As for reward or punishment, it is up to the emperor to decide."

Xu Guangqi had no objection either, so He Ruchong drafted an order and handed it over to the Supervisor of Rituals. Presumably the emperor would not stop Shi Dayong, a hero, from entering Beijing.
