Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

The officials present knew that Wu Shigong must have something to point to, and this point to a certain official or military attache, so they remained silent, no one was willing to do such an offending thing.

But the scene couldn't go on like this forever, and only Mrs. Hou came forward. He coughed and said to Wu Shigong, "Long respect! Be careful!" Mrs. Hou reminded Wu Shigong not to say anything that would affect the unity of the officialdom.

At this time, the most uneasy person in my heart was Yu Zilian who was sitting at the bottom.When he arrived at Fucheng with Yao Liang's militia group, he heard that his county town was besieged and attacked by a peasant rebel army, so Yu Zilian immediately knew something was wrong.

After Yao Liang learned about it, he begged in every possible way to take his militia back to Ningling County for rescue.Of course, it is impossible for Guide Prefecture City, which is besieged by the army, to let this powerful army go.

But other places are okay, Yu Zilian is the magistrate of Ningling County!As long as the county falls, and he leaves the county before the army of peasant rebels arrives, even if he is successful in rescuing the prefecture, he will be responsible for losing the land anyway!

So Yu Zilian has been in fear for several days.When he later heard that the Runing Army had defended the county with all their might, Yu Zilian felt as if he had knocked over a five-flavored bottle.I really don't know how to thank Wu Shigong's Runing Army?Still keep a certain distance from Wu Shigong, the enemy.

But now that Yu Zilian heard Wu Shigong's questioning again, he suddenly became restless, for fear that Wu Shigong would turn his anger on him.And at this time, if it is to appease Wu Shigong's anger, it is very likely that his little magistrate will be abandoned.So now he couldn't help but tremble all over his body.

But Yu Zilian never thought that Wu Shigong had no interest in questioning Yu Zilian, a small county magistrate, and he always liked to make matters worse.Otherwise, Wu Shigong would never have brought up such a topic on this occasion.

"Grandpa! The younger generation has always been open-mouthed. So I can't vomit some things. The Shaanxi bandits are indeed powerful, but they can only enter our Henan province with 60 to [-] people. Rely on our Henan officials and troops to wipe out or drive away the Shaanxi bandits. The bandits may not be able to catch them, but it is very possible to keep the key cities and restrict the activities of the Shaanxi bandits."

"Originally, the younger generation also wanted to sweep the snow in front of the door. Together with Commander Zhao and Li Zongbing, they had to defend the southern part. However, the governor gave thirteen gold medals and sent Zhou Shenshi to urge the younger generation to lead the Runing army to the north. Fight against the bandits together with the governor."

When talking about this, Zhou Junwu, who thought he had nothing to do, suddenly heard that Wu Shigong was going to point the finger at Xuanmo, governor of Henan.He stood up and wanted to argue.But Mrs. Hou and all the officials present pointed their eyes at him, which made Zhou Junwu swallow what he wanted to argue after muttering.

Wu Shigong went on to say: "Whether you take the initiative to meet the thief, no matter whether you win or lose, at least you are loyal and brave to serve the country. The younger generation was also moved by the righteousness of the governor. Regardless of the strong opposition from the officials of the Runing Mansion, the Lord Zun and other officials, he led the main force of the Runing Army to the north to meet the enemy." Thieves. To be honest, the Runan Mansion is just an empty lot at this time. As soon as the Shan bandits show up, the younger generation will give up Runan."

"Of course, for the overall situation of suppressing bandits in Henan, the younger generation is willing to sacrifice their own Runing Mansion. But halfway there, they met 30 Shaanxi bandits in Ruzhou, but what about the governor's promise to meet the bandits together? He led the Henan What about the officers and soldiers? Nothing! No matter! The governor wants to keep Luoyang and Kaifeng. He wants to give up these broken places in the south of us. But you are the governor of Henan! Can't you send someone to tell us the news of the Runing army? "

"Okay! You are a noble person, so you forget things! We, the Runing Army, are alone to meet the bandits. Although we, the Runing Army, cannot get food from the imperial court, we are still willing to be loyal to the emperor."

"But our Runing Army is only in the early 30s! What we are facing is more than 30 Shaanxi bandits! His son Lang fought hard and finally trapped the [-] Shaanxi bandits. To put it bluntly, as long as you Give the junior a month. Our Runing Army can at least leave half of the Shan bandits behind. But what did the junior hear at this time? The other two groups of Shan bandits came to our Guide mansion."

"The younger generation can only give up the Shaanxi bandits and come to help in a hurry. But do you know? How rare is this opportunity to wipe out the Shaanxi bandits? That's really letting the tiger go back to the mountain! Let the tiger go back to the mountain!"

"It's a great pity, but in order to protect one side of the border, the Runing Army rushed more than [-] miles on snowy roads to Guide for rescue. Originally, the younger generation arranged heavy troops in Ningling County. As long as the Zuo Zongbing who guarded the Yellow River prevented the bandits from crossing the river, wait until The Runing Army has arrived, and Guide Mansion is in a dangerous situation."

"But what was the result? Zuo Zongbing feared the enemy like a tiger and let the bandits cross the river. The disaster moved eastward and let the bandits enter our Guide. The heavy soldiers guarding Ningling County had to be transferred to the capital, which almost made Ningling County fall. This is the road to the rescue of our Runing Army."

Speaking of this, Wu Shigong glanced at Yu Zilian intentionally or unintentionally, making Yu Zilian feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.Fortunately, Wu Shigong didn't mention his name on this occasion, he just mentioned it and then continued.

"Now that the Guide Mansion is so dilapidated, are parents so indifferent? I hope that all the adults and the late students will study in the court, and they must go to the court to argue with the governor and Zuo Zongbing!"

Those officials understood that Wu Shigong wanted to drag them, the officials of Guide Mansion, together to impeach Xuan Mo and Zuo Liangyu.But none of you present here are newcomers to the officialdom. What happens on the battlefield is what the public says is right, and what women say is right.

As long as Xuan Mo and Zuo Liangyu have an eloquent aide beside them, who can tell or even fabricate a few decent reasons, the court will not be able to tell who is right, and in the end they will basically fall into a trap. In the midst of a wrangling lawsuit.

For example: Xuanmo and Zuo Liangyu insisted that only 50 peasant rebels went south to Nanyang and Guide, and the remaining [-] to [-] were to storm Luoyang and Kaifeng, but Xuanmo and Zuo Liangyu desperately resisted.

So, can the Emperor Chongzhen and the important officials in the court who are far away in the capital distinguish the authenticity?It might not be necessary to send an imperial envoy down to let the official army and peasant rebel army in Henan go back to the original place and re-enact it again?

So it’s okay for the officials of Guide Mansion to report their difficulties to the imperial court in order to protect themselves, but to impeach them with the Governor Xuanmo and the Chief Soldier Zuo Liangyu?That's fine.Therefore, none of these officials is willing to be the first to express their views and be the first bird.Of course, they didn't want to offend Wu Shigong now, so they still kept silent.

And Wu Shigong actually knew in his heart that those officials were unlikely to be impeached, and even if they were really impeached, it would have little effect.But Wu Shigong still wants to say these words here.In addition to some reasons for venting bad breath, the main reason is to give an explanation to the local gentry in Guide Mansion!
