Chapter Ninety-Eight: Balance
Chapter Ninety-Eight: Balance
Only then did Zhu Qizhen realize that Wang Yu, who dared to enter the Luchuan army alone and seek information, was much older.
In fact, if you talk about age alone, Wang Yu is not very old.
But a person's physical condition is not just because of age.
Wang Yu has no foundation. When I was young, I did a desperate hookup. Alone in the grassland to find out the situation, find out the direction for the army, what assassination, and even the secret hookup between Emperor Xuanzong and the King of Han, he has also done it.
The fighting he had ever seen was fierce, even more tragic than the war.
Because once you do it, you never leave a living mouth.
Don't leave each other alive, and don't leave yourself alive.
According to the practice of the Jinyi Guard, such a person may have always sat on the commander of the Jinyi Guard. His ascension to the throne was, in a sense, an accident.
But Wang Yu's ability to persist in this accident depends on his ability.
In the past few years, Wang Yu has been conscientious and conscientious in the position of commander of Jinyiwei.
It was precisely because he knew that he was not relying on all sides, Wang Yu did not dare to slack off.
If the Jinyiwei in the Ma Shun period has not yet departed from the characteristics of the royal police, then the Jinyiwei in the Wang Yu period has become a military intelligence agency. Most of the internal surveillance is done by the East Plant.
At the same time, the two sides did not divide in too much detail, but they just emphasized each other.
There are also checks and balances between each other. But Jinyiwei has always pressed the East Factory.
Then it is useless for Fan Hong to be in the background of the East Factory.
In such a high-intensity work, Wang Yu's injuries when he was young broke out again and again, and he still supported his sick work.
I've been sick several times in the past two or three years.
Wang Yu's current appearance really can't be supported.
Zhu Qizhen sighed and said: "I know, it will be arranged in the next few days, you and I will have a courtier, I won't say anything else, even if your heirs report it, I will arrange it for you, you can live and recuperate at home." ”
Wang Yu trembled and kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Then he retreated.
After Zhu Qizhen saw Wang Yu leave, he also had a headache for the people in the position of Jinyiwei.
Generally speaking, Jinyi Weidong Factory is loyal first. Ability second.
There is one person who is very suitable, and that is Shi Jing.
Although Shi Jing also went through the battle array, after the battle of Montenegro, Princess Shunde ran to the palace to cry to Zhu Qizhen, and she couldn't bear it.
In the battle of Montenegro, Shi Jing was covered in injuries and almost died. Princess Shunde really doesn't want her husband to work hard anymore.
Zhu Qizhen also knew that in fact, it was rare to fight a battle like the Battle of Montenegro, where everyone from the main general to the small soldiers fought to the death, but Shi Jing also flinched a little.
After all, Shi Jing's ability also has an upper limit.
It's not as good as Shi Heng and others. Nowadays, in the Ming Army, generals with a level like Shi Jing can't talk about the number of trucks, but there is no problem with counting dozens or hundreds.
Therefore, Zhu Qizhen also obeyed the princess's wishes, transferred Shi Jing back, and used his military exploits in the Battle of Montenegro to get a Yan Shanbo.
It's kind of special care.
Not long ago, he was placed in Shaofu to serve.
is in charge of the affairs of the Shaofu, otherwise it would not be bad to let Shi Jing enter the Jinyi Guard.
However, then Zhu Qizhen secretly dispelled this idea in his heart, without him, Jinyiwei's professionalism is too strong now, and ordinary people can't play it at all.
Zhu Qizhen still decided to pick people from the lower echelons of Jinyiwei.
It is better to have someone who has no horizontal connection with all the forces.
In this way, Zhu Qizhen's kung fu will be wasted. But the importance of this position also made Zhu Qizhen have to be cautious.
However, this matter is not urgent, you can let it go first, Zhu Qizhen immediately summoned Meng Ying, and without saying a word, he showed Meng Ying the information of Jinyiwei.
Meng Ying squinted her eyes slightly, looked at it little by little, and said, "I didn't expect the situation in Guangxi to become like this." ”
Zhu Qizhen suddenly remembered that Meng Ying had also been in Annan at the beginning, so she naturally passed through Guangxi. We should have a better understanding of the situation in Guangxi.
Zhu Qizhen didn't talk nonsense, and said: "Guogong, how is Tian Zhen?" ”
Meng Ying said: "It's a veteran, he was born in Huaixi, and he followed Shanyunjiu Town in Guangxi, but he is not a few years younger than the old man, I'm afraid it will be useless." ”
Zhu Qizhen said: "As Guogong said, the generals of Guangxi are not compatible, and I have already ordered Liu Pu to be transferred to Beijing. Guangxi lacks a general, and I don't know who Guogong thinks can do it. ”
Meng Ying listened to Zhu Qizhen's words, and his focus was on Liu Pu's return to Beijing.
Cao Yi's unit has been stationed in Korea for a long time, and it is impossible to come back within a year or two, even if it is transferred back in batches to replenish new soldiers. Most of them will only withdraw to Beijing after North Korea has stabilized.
Even in the future, it will not be withdrawn, and it has become a fact that the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp are stationed abroad.
As a result, the strength of the Beijing camp is not sufficient.
The Beijing camp can really use only 250,000 troops of the Fifth Army, and after removing 50,000, there are still 200,000, and the soldiers and horses stationed in Daning, Kaiping, Zhaozhou, and Dongsheng cannot all be border troops.
Zhu Qizhen was not very relieved.
There must be a part of the camp in Beijing.
As a result, it will take more than 100,000 cavalry to attack the tile spurs on a large scale, and I am afraid that more than 100,000 infantry soldiers will be responsible for supporting logistics.
And this time in the big war, Meng Ying estimated that he would definitely let Jingying play the home field, and the border army was just cleaning up the battlefield and fighting.
With this calculation, the expansion of the army is inevitable.
The Ming Dynasty will appear, the Sixth Army after the Fifth Army on the left and right. To whom does this Sixth Army belong?
Jurisdiction. This question Meng Ying has been weighing in her heart.
But if it's Liu Pu, he's qualified.
It's just that Meng Ying knows that there is a delicate balance between him and the emperor, and if he knows such a big thing, he shouldn't know it, and he will definitely not speak indiscriminately.
Therefore, he kept his divergent thoughts in his heart and said, "One of the ministers recommended it to His Majesty. ”
Zhu Qizhen said: "Who? ”
Meng Ying said: "Mao Zhong, he is a native of the Western Regions, and he attacked Luchuan from his ministers, and he can be regarded as a person who dares to fight, but he stayed in Yunnan at that time. There are few military exploits, and it is a pity that I did not catch up with these few wars. ”
"He has been in Yunnan for a long time, and he is not a stranger to the southwest terrain, and although he is old, he is a bit of a humble person, and he will not contradict Han Yong in the future."
"There should be no problem with leveling Guangxi."
Zhu Qizhen pondered for a while, thought about it, and felt that this person was okay. First, he believed in Meng Ying, and on the other hand, he vaguely remembered that in some battle reports in Yunnan, he could also see Mao Rui's ability.
Zhu Qizhen said: "Okay, transfer him to the chief military officer of Guangxi." and took a part of the Dian Army to Guangxi. But in this case, what should Yunnan do? ”
Meng Ying said: "The minister thought that the Duke of Qianguo had grown up. ”
Zhu Qizhen heard this sentence, and felt a little emotion in his heart, it turned out that the Battle of Luchuan had been many years ago.
At that time, the Duke of Qianguo committed suicide, and the world was shaken. Now the new Qianguo Gong has reached adulthood.
This Qianguo Gong Mu Bin is a little younger than Zhu Qizhen, probably in his twenties, and has graduated from martial arts, as for the results, needless to say, it must be the top three.
Zhu Qizhen also had to admit that although there were very few founding nobles left behind in the army, they were not completely negligible.
The Qianguo family has always wanted to return to Yunnan.
was sent away by Zhu Qizhen noncommittally, and at this moment Zhu Qizhen also had to think about this matter, when the war was imminent, whether to make some concessions and bridge the internal contradictions.
After all, the local health offices are politically attached to the nobles, and the nobles are generally the founding nobles, the Jingnan nobles, and the orthodox nobles awarded by Zhu Qizhen.
The orthodox nobles seem to be rising day by day, but if you look closely, in fact, the so-called orthodox nobles are constantly connected with the Jingnan nobles and the founding nobles.
For example, Meng Ying was originally a member of the Jingnan Honor, although she was marginalized for more than ten years because of the Han Dynasty. For example, Yang Hong seems to have risen from the bottom, but he is the ancestor of a founding general, and he does not dare to say that he inherited power, but his family history can be said.
In many cases, the relationship between these nobles is inextricable.
Zhu Qizhen is now in control of the overall situation, and he can't be wiped out, it is the time to employ people, showing leniency and winning people's hearts is also an inevitable choice.
It's just that Zhu Qizhen still has some doubts about Mu Bin's ability.
