Chapter 582 Can't Be Calm

A month has passed.

However, the days were not peaceful. During this month, two major events happened, which shook the whole of Sichuan and even extended to the imperial court.

The news of the disastrous defeat of the white soldiers quickly spread throughout Sichuan, and the memorial was also reported to the imperial court. Although officials at all levels in Sichuan looked down on the white soldiers and believed that they did not belong to the direct line of the imperial court, they still recognized the white soldiers It is unexpected that the Baigan soldiers encountered the rogues and were defeated. If it were not for the timely rescue of the Jiangning Camp, the Baigan soldiers might have been wiped out. This made many officials have different views on the rogues, and they were able to defeat the Baigans. Bing, indicating that the rogues are very powerful.

The imperial court has no performance, no imperial decree, and no imperial edict.

It is said that the white pole soldiers suffered such a disastrous defeat, losing nearly [-] sergeants, and the court would definitely reprimand them. Unfortunately, there was no reaction this time, and it seems that they will not show any performance in the future. [

The army of the Sichuan Guards Office is even more afraid of the bandits. Those guard commanders are very aware of the combat effectiveness of the sergeants. Their combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of the white soldiers. The white soldiers have suffered disastrous defeats, let alone them. Confronting the rogues directly is almost like courting death, so after the news spread, the guard army became even more passive.

At this time, Qin Liangyu began to issue orders, as the commander-in-chief of Sichuan, requiring the troops of the guards in various places in Sichuan to take the initiative to attack and control important passes. The most important places are Kuizhou Mansion and Long'an Mansion. , Baoning Prefecture, Tongchuan Prefecture, Chongqing Prefecture and other places, and some places in Chengdu Prefecture were also involved.

After Qin Liangyu's military order was issued, it was basically not implemented, and some guard commanders directly blocked it.They didn't give any reason. Some guard commanders had a slightly better attitude and even found reasons, saying that they were facing many difficulties.In short, it is impossible to complete the order.

In Qin Liangyu's view, it was quite normal for the issued order to be directly blocked. In the past, when encountering such a situation, the past was over.Some guard commanders have a good relationship with many local officials, but they can do nothing about it. Besides, over the years, the guard army has basically been in charge of government alone.Unless it is an edict issued by the Ministry of War, even an order issued by the provincial capital commander may not be well implemented.

But this time the situation was different. Qin Liangyu issued a military order. If he was unable to command many guard commanders, losing his life was nothing, and his fame would be ruined.

It's a pity that many guard commanders don't know this situation.

Qin Liangyu first came to Kuizhouwei.

The commander of the guards was not even prepared to meet Qin Liangyu in person.He only sent a commander to deal with it, and only showed up under Qin Liangyu's strict request.The conversation between the two sides was also very unpleasant. Although Qin Liangyu was the commander-in-chief, his focus was still on managing the white soldiers, and he rarely communicated with other guard commanders, let alone commanding these guard commanders.

The commander of the Kuizhou Guards even showed some sarcasm towards the white soldiers in his words, and asked himself to send troops to defend the fortress after suffering such a disastrous defeat.

This situation.It was within Su Tiancheng's expectation, so Qu Qingze was also the one who followed Qin Liangyu to Kuizhouwei.

Qu Qingze did not reveal his identity, but just followed Qin Liangyu.So the Kuizhou Guard Commander did not notice him.

Seeing that Qin Liangyu was at a loss and the Commander of the Kuizhou Guards was arrogant, Qu Qingze finally stepped forward.

His status has long been different, even the governor cannot underestimate his status as the imperial envoy of the Zuoqian capital.

Qu Qingze did not directly reveal his identity, but reprimanded the Kuizhou Guard Commander.

For Qu Qingze who suddenly spoke, the Commander of the Kuizhou Guard seemed annoyed, and even Qin Liangyu couldn't say that about him, not to mention Qin Liangyu's subordinates, who became angry at the Commander of the Kuizhou Guard, questioned Qin Liangyu directly in a bad tone, meaning When Qin Liangyu's subordinates didn't know the rules and had to cut off Qu Qingze's head, Qu Qingze revealed his identity.

Ignoring the pale-faced Kuizhou Wei, Qu Qingze reminded Qin Liangyu that it was time to use Shangfang's sword.

Qin Liangyu, who was hesitating, still considered convincing Kuizhou Wei, but Qu Qingze couldn't control that much anymore, he always kept in mind Su Tiancheng's order, and when necessary, he must kill people to build power.

When Qin Liangyu invited out Shangfang's sword, Kuizhou had already collapsed on the ground.

Qin Liangyu beheaded the commander of the Kuizhou Guard, and ordered Commander Tongzhi to temporarily act as the commander, and complete all deployments in accordance with the requirements of the military order. [

The beheading of the commander of the Kuizhou Guard caused a huge repercussions in Sichuan.

The guard commanders in Long'an, Baoning, Tongchuan, and Chongqing did not dare to slack off in the slightest. According to Qin Liangyu's military order, they started the relevant deployment. No matter whether they did a good job or not, they must do so.

Only the Commander of the Chengdu Guard still said so.

This commander of the guard is very old, and he has a very good relationship with the governor of Sichuan and other officials. Although Qin Liangyu said that he killed the commander of the Kuizhou guard, he still said that Qin Liangyu dared not do anything to him. Sample.

It can only be said that the Commander of the Guards is stupid and seeks death on his own. He doesn't even think about who is behind Qin Liangyu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Governor of the Five Provinces Su Tiancheng, so killing him as a Commander of the Guards is nothing.

The result was the same. When the commander of the Chengdu Guard was beheaded, the governor of Sichuan and other officials did not dare to intercede at all.

After beheading the commanders of the Chengdu Guard and the Kuizhou Guard, the other commanders of the Guards in Sichuan did not dare to take any chances and acted in full accordance with the requirements. It is stronger.

Qin Liangyu's actions also caused a small discussion in the court. Some Shizhonghe Yushi proposed impeachment, thinking that Qin Liangyu did not have such power, and the impeachment memorial also vaguely pointed to Su Tiancheng. The Shangfang sword was bestowed on Su Tiancheng by the emperor. How could Qin Liangyu use it directly.

This time, Shizhong and Yushi, who wrote the impeachment memorial, did not expect that their ending would be as tragic.

The emperor Longyan was furious, he threw the memorial directly on the ground, and directly ordered Jin Yiwei to put Ge Shizhong and Yushi in prison, directly cut off their positions, and demoted them to civilians.

Shizhong and Yushi were also in a state of confusion. They didn't want to think about it. The matter of exterminating the rogues was ordered by the crown prince. The matter of beheading the commander of the guards and letting Qin Liangyu use Shangfang's sword was generally the order of the crown prince. Didn't they propose to impeach directly against the prince?

Of course the emperor was angry, and it must not be tolerated.

There is also a reason why Zhu Youjian supports Su Tiancheng in this way.

Zhu Ci has written several letters, all of which are reports of his daily study and familiarity with handling things. Looking at these letters, Zhu Youjian is deeply moved. He obviously feels that Zhu Ci has made great progress. , not only familiar with the people's conditions, but even have a good understanding of how to deal with some subtle things.

A recent letter by Zhu Ci even caused Zhu Youjian to think deeply.

Zhu Ci wrote about the dignity of civil and military officials, citing how he and Su Tiancheng dealt with Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin, and believed that the dignity of civil and military officials was the most important.

Zhu Ci's progress indicates that the Ming Dynasty has a good successor, and Zhu Youjian is of course happy.

Therefore, Zhu Youjian did not reprimand him for the disastrous defeat of the white-armed soldiers. He impeached Shizhonghe Yushi, and Zhu Youjian severely punished him.

Sun Chengzong, Liu Zongzhou and other cabinet officials realized more clearly how wise it was for Su Tiancheng to implore His Royal Highness the Prime Minister to exterminate the rogues. After doing so, the matter of exterminating the rogues would be free from any interference, which is convenient Unified command and coordination.

What happened in Sichuan, what happened in the imperial court, all the officials in Sichuan knew about it very quickly, and it was clearly written in the mansion newspaper. At this time, everyone finally realized that the situation had changed. If you think your relationship is good, If the root is hard, you can disobey the order, and you will definitely suffer a big loss. The commanders of Chengdu and Kuizhou were beheaded by Shang Fang's sword. The fate of the rest of the guards who disobeyed the order must be the same.

This kind of understanding quickly spread among officials at all levels in Sichuan.

From the governor to the county magistrate, it is very clear that the imperial court has made up its mind to completely wipe out the bandits, and this time it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who personally supervised the extermination of the bandits. All military orders can be regarded as issued by the emperor himself. The decree issued is even stricter than the edict of the Ministry of War. If you are a little slack, losing your official position is a trivial matter, and you will lose your life if you do not do well. [

In a short period of time, the situation in Sichuan began to undergo major changes.

When Qin Liangyu went to Fuzhou County to inspect, the magistrate, magistrate, and magistrate officials greeted him personally, and the commander of the guard waited at the border of the garrison, for fear that he would be caught if he did not do something well.

At the beginning, Qin Liangyu was still a little uncomfortable with this situation, but he gradually got used to it. When he gave orders, his tone became firmer, and the deployment became more detailed. On the map marked by Su Tiancheng, some places also belonged to the key points For defense, Qin Liangyu also made arrangements.

In just one month, such a big change has taken place in all parts of Sichuan, and the guards have begun to become stricter. Although the combat effectiveness of the guard army is still not good, they are stationed in pass or fortress places, relying on the favorable terrain , can still barely resist the attack of the rogues. Besides, the Jiangning battalion has already moved out and entered Kuizhou, Baoning and other places. If there is a dangerous situation somewhere, the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion can quickly help. (To be continued.
