Chapter 235 The First Movement of the General Staff

Nan Zhili reversed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This is the latest news from Wei Zhongxian, which is transmitted through flying pigeons, which is very accurate.

After Luo Sigong went south, Wei Zhongxian also followed, of course, quietly, he went on the emperor's orders, the purpose was very simple, to secretly watch the work of Jinyiwei and report his every move.

"Wang Chengen, this news is right, right? Wei Zhongxian's old man didn't have a stroke, right? Zhu Youxiao asked in a trance. This is the seventh report in the past few days, and every time a report comes, one or two Nanzhili mansions will rebel, and the continuous reports will make him wonder if his year name is still the apocalypse, why are there so many state capital rebellions.

"Long live the Lord, the slaves and maids have sent messages from the people buried in Jinyiwei and Dongchang, these messages are right, they are all true, except for Fengyang Mansion, Nanzhili has reversed other mansions." Wang Chengen replied with a calm face.

For the two intelligence organizations under his command, he naturally did not have a little precaution, and he buried some nails in it, not for anything else, but just to control the internal dynamics of the two organizations. The emperor is a creature with a strong desire to control, and he will never allow himself to smear the two organizations in the dark, so he naturally has these nails.

These nails don't need to do anything, they still follow the orders of the top and do their own thing, just need to report what they see. And the person who controls these nails is naturally Wang Chengen, whom Zhu Youxiao trusts very much, the chief of the palace in charge of the inner house, and the popular eunuch.

With Wang Chengen's repeated confirmation, Zhu Youxiao accepted this reality suspiciously, this is not modern, there is no telephone, no Internet, no video, he wants to understand the situation in the following states and counties, he can only pass the report of his subordinates, but this ridiculous report, although after countless confirmations, he has accepted the reality intellectually, but it is still difficult to understand emotionally.

How could it have developed into what it is now. Zhu Youxiao was puzzled.

In Zhu Youxiao's eyes, in fact, he didn't do anything, didn't he just change the system of Beizhili and become a province. As for the northeast, it has little to do with Kannai, so it can't be affected.

It's just that he didn't expect that the things he did, for the people of the Ming Dynasty, which were not earth-shattering, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Dali Temple, the abolition of agricultural taxes, and some of the words he had written down as data storage were all in the eyes of people with intentions and were widely disseminated.

After all, no one in this world is stupid. The best example of this is the great families of Nan Zhili who gathered to rebel, who wanted to return the government to the old track, and they still lay on their privileges and lived a leisurely life.

"Long live Lord, Lord Shoufu asks to see me." Just when Zhu Youxiao was still in a trance, Li Ruhua came.

"Let me in." The young emperor said weakly, such a big thing has happened, and even if the cabinet is sluggish, it has received the news at this time.

"Your Majesty has a decree to announce Li Ruhua's visit."

"Xuan Li Ruhua is here."

A series of voices were transmitted, and then, when the first assistant of the court, Li Ruhua, a scholar of Dongge University, walked in with an anxious face.

As soon as he came in, as soon as he finished saluting, he couldn't wait to ask, "Your Majesty, ...... Nanzhili over there?"

"It's all true." Zhu Youxiao still looks half-dead, he still hasn't figured it out, how could things develop like this, it stands to reason that he won the battle and destroyed the Jurchen Eight Banners, shouldn't it be the rhythm of stable internal affairs and prosperous Datong next.

"Your Majesty, the old minister didn't ask this, almost the entire territory of Nanzhili is opposed, naturally there is no doubt, the old minister is just puzzled, the banner over there is true......." Glancing at the emperor, Li Ruhua's voice gradually decreased, and finally he was silent.

"I say it's false, do you believe it?" Zhu Youxiao was in his position, and he glanced at him angrily, "You are also an old fox in officialdom, how can you ask such a childish question?" ”

"Your Majesty's lesson is that the old minister is confused." was scolded by the emperor for being an old fox, Li Ruhua was not embarrassed at all, but laughed, smiling at the whole fox who stole the chicken.

It's not that Li Ruhua doesn't know that there is no answer to this question, and what he cares about is not the answer, but the emperor's attitude towards this question. And the result naturally made him very optimistic.

"Old fox." Seeing the other party's reaction, Zhu Youxiao was stunned at first, but after thinking about it, he immediately understood that the other party was testing him.

"Okay, okay, go down if you get what you want to know, go back and maintain the situation, anyway, this rebellion has nothing to do with the cabinet." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, he didn't want to continue to see this old fox now.

The emperor's words were a bit out of Shoufu's expectations, and he asked in astonishment, "Your Majesty, how can this rebellion have nothing to do with the cabinet, you must quickly send troops to quell the rebellion, and you can't delay ....... Xia" Speaking of this, he was suddenly stunned and couldn't continue.

"What, you see?" Zhu Youxiao glanced at him.

"Your Majesty, the matter of Nan Zhili is indeed very irrelevant to the cabinet, and the old minister has retired." Li Ruhua gave a salute and left the palace without looking back, the cabinet still has a lot of things to deal with, and he doesn't have time to delay here.

Nanzhili rebelled, all administrative work naturally could not be carried out, so the most important thing was the counterinsurgency work, but this belonged to the military category, but after the emperor promoted the status of the cabinet, he quietly hung up the brand of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, and at the same time issued an order, the military and the government gradually began to separate, and all military affairs were managed by the Metropolitan Governor's Office.

At present, due to the lack of progress, only the two provinces of Hebei Province and Liaodong Province and the Gyeonggi region have been placed under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, but this does not mean that the Cabinet has the right to dictate such obvious military action as counterinsurgency. The authority of the cabinet has risen sharply, and there is no need to report daily affairs, but can be handled directly in accordance with the usual practice.

Obviously, the emperor chose the Dadu Governor's Office, and then the emperor set up the Inner Mansion and controlled the army logistics in his hands. In this way, an interlocking pattern of rights has been formed.

Li Ruhua, who is well versed in the art of balance, has long seen through this, today it is only because Nan Zhili is too big, he didn't react for a while, after a little bit of the emperor, he instantly woke up, and he crossed the line, yes, he didn't say a word, and went back directly.

At this time, what the cabinet should do is to maintain the stability of the government, and at the same time regulate and control the local government, and actively cooperate with the actions of the metropolitan governor's office.

"Hey, what should I do?" After Li Ruhua left, Zhu Youxiao looked at the colorful map of the country in front of him and looked embarrassed. The four headquarters of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion had just been formed, and there was not even a leader, he just wanted to ask questions, and there was no one to ask.

"Cheng'en, what do you say to do?" Nan Zhili's sudden rebellion made Zhu Youxiao upset, and he had no idea for a while.

"Huh?" The emperor's sudden question caught Wang Chengen, who was watching his nose and nose next to him, unexpected, he didn't expect that the emperor would ask him. After stabilizing his mind, he didn't answer positively, "Long live Lord, don't you often say, the professional is to leave it to professionals to do, the slave is just a eunuch, naturally unable to answer this question, Long Live Lord might as well ask the group of young men in the General Staff." ”

Wang Chengen is also very clear about the structure of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

"Leave it to the professionals." Zhu Youxiao muttered to himself, his eyes gradually brightened, "Yes, haven't I always emphasized the division of labor, why do I have to make my own ideas at this time, what I have to think about is not this." ”

"You go and send a decree to the General Staff to draw up a military plan to counter-insurgency. The lads really need to work out and this is a good opportunity. Zhu Youxiao happily ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Chengen responded.

The tone has been set, sending troops to quell the rebellion, the specific thing is how to send troops, this is what Zhu Youxiao had a headache just now, but now he has turned to the General Staff Staff, and it is also called training the ability of young people.

"I'm so smart." Watching the eunuch leave in a hurry, Zhu Youxiao stretched out his waist with satisfaction, but this stretch of his waist was to hook out his sleepiness, yawned, and he staggered towards the dormitory.

"When the plan comes out, I'll put it first, and I'll watch it when I wake up." A series of yawns made Zhu Youxiao's voice a little out of shape.

"Yes." Wang Chengen replied a little helplessly, he always felt that since the imperial driver made a personal expedition, the emperor has changed, and has become a lot more casual, all kinds of actions that make the old pedant blow his beard and stare not uncommon, and there is no longer the serious and solemn feeling before.

After all the emperor's decree was received, there was a flurry of chickens and dogs jumping inside the General Staff, and the young staff officers were dumbfounded, let them make a plan, how to do this? What is the protocol to follow?

The staff officers of the General Staff were all drawn from the General Staff of the Yulin Army, and all the personnel were very young, although each of them was the original 800 officer seeds, and had received half a year of training, but it was the first time that they had made military plans independently.

"Xu Shen, what should I do." Everyone shook their heads and looked at Xu Wen.

"I'm a staff officer here, just like everyone else, and I haven't done it before." Xu Wen waved his hand.

Having said that, these young people are still waiting for him to come up with an idea, not for anything else, just because the other party was the chief of staff of the Yulin Army before, and now, like everyone, he has removed all his positions and been transferred to the General Staff as a staff officer, but the unique rank of colonel in the General Staff still makes everyone look up to him.

"Xu Shen, don't shirk it, everyone worked under you before, and now you are the highest rank, who will pay attention if you don't pay attention." A staff officer said that although he used honorifics, his tone was rather casual.

"Yes, yes, Xu Shen, tell me what Your Majesty's will should be done." The other staff officers were in line with the Tao.

"Okay, I'll make a charter first." Seeing that everyone else said this, Xu Wen couldn't shirk it.
