Chapter 433 Sun Chuanting's Promotion

I just listened to him play: "Your Majesty, General Zhenglu became famous in the first battle, which was the battle with the grassland tribes. I think that he can be transferred to be the general of Datong to fight against the Chahar tribe!"

General Zhenglu, that is, Wu Sangui, the commander-in-chief of Jinzhou, led 2000 cavalry at the beginning, and built a barricade for the return of captives in Jingguan with more than [-] Mongolian troops. Then he raided the grassland and took revenge on the two tribes. Not much to lose.

Recalling Wu Sangui's achievements, Emperor Chongzhen nodded with a smile and said, "General Wu has the vigor of a newborn calf. He dares to fight and fight hard. He is indeed a fierce general. Dear friends, what do you think?"

The emperor clearly agreed to the nomination of the chief assistant, and as long as other people were not interested, who would come out and find reasons to oppose it.But it was Min Hongxue who reminded: "Your Majesty, if Ning Jin transfers a commander in chief, the force will be weaker."

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "Let the Ning Jin army take the initiative to attack Jianlu, but a while ago the two general soldiers sent troops to encircle and suppress the poor Jianlu, but they didn't do their best, and Jianlu escaped. Afterwards, they blamed each other, and there was no tacit understanding between them. If I want to recover Liaodong, I am afraid that I will not be able to count on them. The existing troops are used to defend the city, but it does not have much impact, so let’s decide, adjust General Zhenglu will serve as the commander-in-chief of Datong."

These courtiers did not expect the emperor to have such a bad impression of Guan Ning's army, but thinking about it, the previous battles were fought like that, and the two general officers blamed each other afterwards. Maybe it is not as good as a general It might be even better if soldiers are stationed there.

They were thinking about it when they heard Emperor Chongzhen say again: "As for Wu Xiang, as the commander-in-chief of the army, he ran away before the battle, and the circumstances were bad; he also let go of about five thousand thieves, which had a great impact. They should be severely punished as an example to others..."

Hearing his verdict on Wu Xiang, the subordinates immediately focused their attention, and they all sighed in their hearts why Wu Xiang didn't insist on it, or calm down a little, the thieves broke up, not attacked, so As the largest military force of the imperial court, the Datong Army is on the battlefield, and its military achievements will definitely not be low, but in the end, because of the timidity of the general, it has evolved into this situation, and it really deserves it!
"But I think he raised a good son for Daming. His crimes are reduced by one class. He seized the earl's position and became a Datong guerrilla. He has committed crimes and made meritorious deeds. If he commits a crime again, he will not be forgiven lightly!"

Hearing Emperor Chongzhen's final sentence on Wu Xiang, many of his subordinates came to their senses.Your Majesty is forcing Wu Sangui to be the commander-in-chief of Datong!Otherwise, if his son hadn't served as the commander-in-chief of Datong, as long as Wu Xiang, a guerrilla, failed to fight well, he would have no mercy!

Thinking about it this way, Min Hongxue couldn't help but look at the fellow's back, and then look at the Emperor Chongzhen above, and understood another layer of intention: Is the emperor holding Zu Dashou responsible for his collapse and returning to Shanhaiguan?

At the beginning, Zu Dashou was able to lead the army back to Shanhaiguan from the capital city, which shows that most of the Guanning army was controlled by Zu Dashou.Before Zu Dashou was transferred to the capital, then Wu Xiang was transferred to Datong, and now Wu Sangui was transferred to Datong. In this way, the original forces in Guan Ning's army were replaced.These measures are interlocking and come step by step, and each step makes the original Guanning forces have to abide by it.This means...

He was thinking in surprise, but Emperor Chongzhen was telling Wen Tiren: "The cabinet should draw up the order according to this. For the general who conquered the captives, the young heroes must be encouraged, and the court's strategy can be properly disclosed. It is ready to fight against the Mongolian tribes in Tumochuan!"

"I obey the order!" Wen Tiren and Emperor Chongzhen already had a lot of tacit understanding, and immediately responded.

At this moment, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, who had not spoken all the time, came forward and said: "The former governor of Datong, Zhang Zongheng, has been promoted to the governor of Xuanda, and now the position is vacant. Since your Majesty has decided to send troops to Mochuan, I think that this position should not remain vacant!"

In the original history, Zhang Zongheng did not become the governor of Xuanda until the fourth year of Chongzhen, but now because of the butterfly effect, it has changed.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard it, he found it very reasonable, and immediately thought of a candidate, that is, Sun Chuanting, the former doctor who made great contributions to exterminating the thieves.He has the ability to lead troops and has courage, so it should be appropriate to serve as a governor and sit at the border.

Thinking of this, when he was about to make an announcement, he heard the first assistant Wen Tiren come out and say: "Your Majesty, I just received the report from Fujian, please read it!"

Isn't this still talking about Datong, but Wen Tiren suddenly referred to Fujian, what the hell is this?

Emperor Chongzhen didn't understand what it meant, but he knew that Wen Tiren would not be indiscriminate, so he nodded and asked the servant to present the memorial and read it first.

This memorial was naturally written by He Qiaoyuan. Emperor Chongzhen understood Wen Tiren's intention at a glance. He wanted to take the opportunity to transfer Fujian governor Xiong Wencan to be the governor of Datong.

After reaching this conclusion, he immediately took the opportunity of reading the memorial to think about it.

After a long while, Emperor Chongzhen put down the memorial and said with a smile: "During the governorship of Fujian, Xiong Wencan, the governor of Fujian, recruited thieves and pacified maritime affairs. , He has rich experience in dealing with thieves, and he was specially transferred to serve as the governor of Datong, what do you loves think?"

Xiong Wencan has nothing to do with these bigwigs. In the original history, he has always stayed in Fujian and joined forces with Zheng Zhilong.Later, because of the merits of suppressing the bandits and pacifying the maritime affairs, when the bandits ravaged the Central Plains and there was no one available, he was recommended to Emperor Chongzhen to be the governor and exterminate the bandits.So, under the circumstance that he couldn't refuse again and again, he recruited Zhang Xianzhong and others with his good recruiting methods, but Zhang Xianzhong cheated him to death!

These bigwigs in the court didn't object to the emperor's intentions, but it was a little strange. The emperor just said that the key duty of the governor of Datong was actually to pay attention to the grasslands, so that he could use his troops in the future.But at this time, it is said that the governor of Datong wants to pacify the bandits. In the middle, the emperor has other intentions, right?
They didn't see He Qiaoyuan's memorial, so they naturally didn't know the reason why Emperor Chongzhen did this. In fact, it was to allow the ban on opening the sea to be implemented smoothly, so Xiong Wencan had to be transferred.

With the holy will already decided, the matter of transferring Xiong Wencan was decided in this way.Therefore, the fact that the Fujianese took over as the governor of Datong in history remained the same, but the people changed.

Emperor Chongzhen then announced: "Sun Chuanting, the former Jixun Lang, made great contributions in the battle of Balipu to suppress the bandits, and I am very relieved. Such a pillar of the country should not be left in the court and the public. According to my decree, Sun Chuanting was appointed as the deputy censor of Zuodu, Governor of Fujian!"

　More tomorrow!
