Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 427 On the Stage of History

Today happened to be that a pusher from Runing Mansion escorted grain and grass to Lu's, Xuan Mo immediately asked him about the situation of Wu Shigong and the Runing Army.After hearing the introduction, Xuan Mo was immediately taken aback.

The Runing Army has developed to the present, and it can't hide the local officials' intentions, and this pusher has no obligation to hide anything for Wu Shigong, so he told Xuan Mo everything he knew about the Runing Army.

The true strength and huge industry of the Runing Army is certainly impossible for this pusher to know all about, but the pusher can always see the village guards and road guards everywhere, and also find out the possession and reclamation of the Runing Army. Approximately how many fields are there.

The pushing officer couldn't tell the difference between the village guards, the road guards, and the regular soldiers of the Runing Army. In his eyes, those were actually soldiers of the Runing Battalion.And he also told Xuanmo very clearly that what the Runing Camp did in the Runing Mansion was to farm the fields.

But as soon as Xuanmo knew the amount of farmland, my good guy, it was close to [-] hectares.What kind of concept is that?According to the supply of soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, at least [-] troops can be pulled out, and sufficient food and salaries can be supplied.

Xuan Mo lost his composure all of a sudden, and only then did he understand how powerful the Runing Battalion was, and how the Ruzhou and Nanyang victories came to be.It turns out that the number of soldiers in the Runing Battalion far exceeds the number specified by the Ministry of War!

Xuan Mo didn't think that Wu Shigong had a different intention, because at the time of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court gave you these military salaries according to the amount of troops. If you are a military officer with skills, no one will care about you if you raise more soldiers.For example, the Guanning cavalry in Liaodong.

Besides, in order to save military expenses, Emperor Chongzhen had already issued an imperial decree to encourage the local people to be self-reliant and armed to defend their homes and the country.And Wu Shigong's practice of farming just fits this situation.

In addition, Wu Shigong's identity as a noble child and his relatives are all in the capital, so it is impossible to see Wu Shigong's objection.But just to be on the safe side, Xuan Mo asked the pusher in detail.I know that although Wu Shigong is rather domineering in the Runing Mansion, he has basically never dealt with civil servants, that is, some of Wu Shigong's management of the farmland are more domineering, and some officials are almost unable to stand in the Runing Mansion because of the run-on.

The pusher didn't know that the village steward he was talking about was a local official sent by the Runing Army.Therefore, Xuan Mo was basically relieved after hearing this.

But these days, Xuanmo was not the first time to be surprised by Wu Shigong. He also did his homework a few days ago, and learned in detail about Wu Shigong's origin and what he did after arriving in Henan.He was taken aback.

Putting aside Wu Shigong's identity and what happened in the capital for the time being, after he arrived in Henan, he experienced the rebellion of the Holy Spirit Society, Jisi's transformation into King Qin and the recovery of the four cities of Yongping, and the suppression of the Denglai Rebellion.There are also suspected Ruzhou Great Victory, Nanyang Great Victory, and the elimination of Leopard Head rebels.Almost all of these battles were big victories.

Xuan Mo knew that if all these military achievements were counted, Wu Shigong would definitely be able to be promoted to the general army, and if he was lucky, he would be given the title of general.It is even possible to seal a count.

But what is Wu Shigong's current official position?Totally streaking.Xuan Mo only knew that Wu Shigong had once been punished for his disrespect to Shang Fang's sword, but at that time Wu Shigong was only a captain.It's still a long way from the position of the chief soldier.

So there must be something tricky in it.Thinking about it carefully, at that time Wu Shigong and Li Bingbeidao were facing each other in Chen Qiyu's Chinese army tent, and the reason is self-evident.

So Xuan Mo's mind sketched the image of Wu Shigong, a military officer who is very capable but domineering towards his boss.But Xuan Mo thought about it the other way around, and made so many credits.But if he couldn't get a promotion, it was understandable for the military officer to be a little emotional.

Xuan Mo thought he had found the crux of the problem, but he was still very upset. When will the governor be humbled to the military officer under his rule.But it won't work if you don't bow your head.It is not necessary to give up a brave military officer and an invincible soldier before the war?

So Xuanmo sighed, and said to Master Wang: "Write a letter to Wu Runing. Be more polite, and tell him that as long as he comes out this time, I will protect him and restore him to his post. If he makes military exploits, he will be rewarded. And ..." Xuan Mo hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Quite a peaceful place!"

Master Wang was stunned for a moment, knowing that Xuan Mo had allowed Wu Shigong to claim land. Although military officers often looted and ravaged the people after the war, as civil officials, they would always restrict them. few.

It can be seen that Dong Weng, who saw himself, had already made up his mind, and the master Wang, who was an aide, could not object, so he bowed his hands and wanted to write a letter after saluting.

"Wait!" Xuan Mo stopped Master Wang when he saw that he was about to leave, "Oh—! I still write this letter myself!"

In the Ming Dynasty, when there was no turmoil, no disaster, and no major events in a place, if the local officials remained silent, the court would definitely ignore the place.After all, there were too many major events in the world, and there was no news media in the Ming Dynasty that would publicize them. Therefore, except for the fact that the magistrate might pay more attention to this magistrate during the annual imperial court evaluation, the magistrate could be an invisible person at other times.

And although Wu Shigong made a lot of moves in the Runing Mansion before, firstly, what he did was not too outrageous, and secondly, he fully considered the interests of the magistrates, so there was no magistrate of the Runing Mansion to say anything to the court. The real situation of Runing Army.After all, offending Wu Shigong for no reason is also a big taboo in the officialdom.

But now Henan Governor Xuan Mo first noticed Wu Shigong and his Runing Army, so Wu Shigong's strategy of keeping a low profile and biding his time was gradually going bankrupt.With the subsequent campaign of the Runing Army, the Ming court gradually turned its attention to this powerful army.In other words, it was only at this time that the Runing Army truly entered the historical stage of the Ming Dynasty.

In this world of great strife, it is not shameful for civil servants to put down their bodies to win over military officials with strong troops.Xuan Mo also saw the change in the direction of the court.Don't you see, when Hou Xun was inspecting the arsenal, the gunpowder exploded, causing serious injuries and recuperating from illness for more than a year.

But when Hou Xun made a memorial requesting to resign and return to his hometown for retirement, Emperor Chongzhen and the cabinet tried every means to keep him, was it because he had unearthed a military officer capable of recruiting and fighting——Zuo Liangyu?

Now Xuanmo has learned that the Hou family in Guide Mansion has a very good relationship with Wu Shigong, so he has to take another look at Hou Xun's potential power.But fortunately, now that he is in the favorable position of Governor of Henan, Zuo Liangyu has also become his subordinate.If there is Wu Shigong's Runing Battalion again, then Xuanmo is very likely to rise to a higher level after destroying the peasant rebel army.So now it is only natural to write a letter to Wu Shigong, say a few good words, and give some benefits.
