Chapter 476 Appointment
The ministers below saw that the emperor had decided, so the major policy was decided, and there was nothing to change outside the north to resist the enemy's country, so they knelt on the ground together and shouted long live, which was considered to have agreed to this decision.
Only Jia Ke stood there alone without saying a word, and the emperor was about to get angry when he saw Jia Ke, but immediately seemed to remember something again, so he endured it.
The Emperor was now like Jia Ke was an invisible man, and he didn't see him at all.
When the other ministers stood up, the emperor asked, "Where are you going to transfer troops from?" How many people are transferred? ”
Lei Ying, the secretary of the military department, stood up first and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the sooner you can mobilize troops and horses from several provinces near the capital, the better, and it is enough to gather 300,000 horses. ”
Liu Yu also stood up and said, "The minister agrees with Lord Lei's opinion, this time is very different from the last time. Last time, the men and horses of the provinces had to leave a large part of the defense, and the Tatars went south in case they defeated the reinforcements, and now there is no need to think about directly concentrating all the men and horses to go north. ”
The Emperor nodded, "You're right, now is the time to use these troops. Drop them all north and go outside the Gubei Pass to fend off the Tatars. Even if this army is defeated, there is still Gubeikou, and hundreds of thousands of horses in the capital, it will not be a big deal. ”
Jia Ke felt a cool breeze blowing on the back of his neck right now, making him shiver. At the same time, I was also alert in my heart, and it seemed that this time things were not ordinary.
Listening to the emperor's meaning, he wanted to leave all the soldiers and horses in the capital, and none of them went north, and all the soldiers and horses were mobilized from the surrounding provinces.
Thinking of this, Jia Ke already understood that the emperor was going to get rid of himself, and it seemed that they were going to appoint themselves as the commander of the north.
If this is done by the emperor, leaving his descendants behind, and taking the generals who don't know if they listen to themselves or not, I am afraid that before they meet the Tatars, they will be cut off by these people and sacrificed to the emperor.
The emperor then asked Lei Ying: "Since you have decided to transfer people near the capital?" So how many ministries should there be, you have an idea. ”
Lei Ying stood in the middle and said confidently: "When this matter came, the minister already had an idea in his heart. It can be ordered that Taiyuan Jiedu will make Wang Zuo lead 60,000 horses, Baoding Jiedu will make Chun Yuhua lead 50,000 horses, Qingzhou Jiedu will make Huangling command 30,000 horses, Laizhou Jiedu will make Guo Min lead 30,000 horses, Shandong general Lin Feng will lead 20,000 horses, and Henan general Lu Bin will lead 20,000 horses. That's more than 200,000. After these horses gathered, they went north to defend against the enemy. ”
The emperor then asked, "Then what should the Tatars do if they attack Gubeikou at this time?" ”
Hearing this, Lei Ying said confidently: "Your Majesty don't panic, you forgot that there are 50,000 horses from the Xiao Cavalry Battalion in the north, let the Xiao Cavalry Battalion go north in advance to assist in the defense of Gubeikou, so that the Tatars will not be able to break through Gubeikou for a while." ”
After hearing this, the emperor happily walked down the imperial steps and came to Lei Ying, grabbed his hand and said, "Sir is really my ovary, and I have no worries about him." ”
Jia Ke watched their monarchs and ministers interact there, and somehow wanted to laugh, this one was already bad in the TV series when it was on Earth. I didn't expect to be able to see it alive now.
The Emperor sighed and returned to his throne. Then he said: "In this case, now there is a short commander of the army, what candidate does Zhong Aiqing recommend?" ”
Jia Ke stood below and felt very leisurely, it seemed that this drudgery would fall on his head no matter what, and he didn't have to fight or grab, the emperor would send these hundreds of thousands of horses to his hands.
Sure enough, as Jia Ke expected, Lei Ying stood up and said solemnly: "Weichen sees that the Manchu Dynasty civil and military can lead the army, and it is none other than the Minister of Military Aircraft Jia Ke who can resist the Tatars. ”
After hearing this, the emperor's face immediately became gloomy, as if he was very reluctant to Jia Ke to command the army, "Jia Aiqing is the foreman of the military aircraft department of the imperial court, and he is in charge of the world's major affairs, and I can't do without him for a moment, so you can choose someone else." ”
After listening to the emperor's words, Liu Yu stood up, knelt down in the center of the hall and said: "Your Majesty, when there is no more suitable person to lead the troops than Lord Jia today, please put the emperor first." ”
Sun Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, saw Liu Yu kneeling down and admonished the emperor, Sun Yan has always been the head of Liu Yu in the military aircraft department, so he also came out to admonish the emperor: "Lord Jia has been in battle for a long time, and he has never lost the war against the Tatars. There is no one else in the court who is more suitable, please ask the emperor to focus on the overall situation. ”
After listening to Sun Yan's words, Liu Yu couldn't help but nod in his heart, this person follows him very closely, and he can be regarded as his own team. After a period of time, in addition to Jia Ke, he became the foreman of the Military Aircraft Department, and he could let Sun Yan be his assistant, which could be regarded as his promotion.
The emperor sat on the top with a gloomy face, and finally seemed to be very reluctant to say: "Since this is the case, let's appoint Jia Aiqing as the commander of the army this time." ”
Jia Ke did not agree immediately, but said to the emperor: "The minister has been away from the army for a long time, and his martial arts are also a little rusty. ”
After Jia Ke said this, he stood aside again, which meant that it was impossible for me to go north.
Liu Yu is a little anxious to Jia Ke, but don't you be sad, isn't my plan just a waste of all my efforts? So he stood up and gave his hand to Jia Ke.
"Master Jia, I think you still don't want to shirk, don't you know the generals in this world? You are the only one who can fight the Tatars in the field, and this time you will go out for the country, and you will surely be immortalized in the future. ”
Jia Ke showed a sarcastic smile on his face, "I don't dare to be a meritorious person." After looking at Liu Yu and said: "If I can save my life and enjoy my old age in peace, I can't ask for it." ”
Lei Ying listened to Jia Ke's words beside him, and already knew that he was afraid that he had seen that something was wrong with the situation this time, so he hurriedly came out and said: "Lord Jia, this time the army is indeed very urgent to go north, you just look at the emperor's promotion grace, please don't shirk." ”
After Jia Ke heard these words, he was annoyed in his heart, it seems that they are going to let themselves go north no matter what, and the kindness of the Emperor Taishang has been pulled out, since this is the case, they have followed their wishes, and it can be regarded as repaying the last kindness of the Emperor, and from now on, the two will not owe each other.
So Jia Ke, with a gloomy face, stood up again and said to the emperor: "Since Lord Lei has said that he wants Weichen to repay the emperor's promotion, then Weichen can no longer shirk, Weichen I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman, and this time I will go north by the minister to take command." ”
When the emperor heard this, he couldn't see the smiling eyes on his face, "Then there is Lao Aiqing, so it is decided, this time Jia Qing will go north to take command." ”
Then all the people of the temple fell down together and shouted three times, long live. And Jia Ke continued to kneel there after the others stood up, and said a lot of words of gratitude to the emperor above. Only then did he stand up and retreat to the middle of the class.
After appointing Jia Ke as the marshal, the emperor continued: "These hundreds of thousands of troops are going out to fight, and according to the rules, there must be a supervising army, who do you think is suitable?" ”
At this time, everyone was embarrassed, and finally Lei Ying stood up and said: "Since Master Jia has left the Military Aircraft Department, then the Military Aircraft Department cannot leave people, and the minister recommended himself to serve as the supervisor." ”
Liu Yu nodded and felt that Lei Ying was more suitable, firstly, because he was the secretary of the Ministry of War, and he was still familiar with things in the army. The second is that this time I went not only to monitor Jia Ke, but also to have more important tasks, which also needed to be done by him, a person who was familiar with the Jiedu envoy.
So Liu Yu also came out of the class and said: "The minister also thinks that Lord Lei is more suitable, please ask the emperor for permission." ”
The emperor nodded, and then said, "Since everyone recommended it, then I will not violate the consensus of the people." Lei Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was appointed as the supervisor of the Northern Expedition. I will issue a holy decree, and then your military aircraft department will transfer troops from all over the country, and you must go north as soon as possible, and you will not use the Tatars to wreak havoc on the Central Plains. ”
Jia Ke saw that the emperor appointed Lei Ying as the supervisor of the army this time, and knew that the emperor was not at ease with himself, this time Lei Ying was monitoring himself, and secondly, he was afraid that he would have to remove himself in the military camp if he had the opportunity.
Jia Ke sneered continuously on his face after thinking about it, since this is the case, let you be happy for a while.
Soon, Xia Shouzhong, who was next to him, prepared the holy decree on behalf of the emperor, and then knelt there according to the rules, holding his hands up and even letting the emperor look at it.
The emperor stood there and looked at it carefully, and it was written that Jia Ke was appointed as the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses to lead the army north to defend against the Tatars. Lei Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was the supervisor of the army and monitored the movements of the army.
After reading it, the emperor nodded, and Xia Shouzhong immediately sent the holy decree to the emperor's imperial case.
"Go and get the Emperor's letter to Baolai."
After listening to the emperor's words, Xia Shouzhong slowly withdrew from the Heart Cultivation Palace, and after a while, he took a yellow cloth package, came to the emperor's imperial case, opened it gently, and took out a pair of white jade jade seals.
The emperor took the jade seal, saved it on the ink, and then covered it with the holy decree.
After the emperor used up the jade seal, he even rolled it up into the hands of Xia Shouzhong, who was on the side of the tunnel.
After Xia Shouzhong received the holy decree, he came to the jacket and raised his hands high.
Jia Ke had no choice but to kneel down again and take the decree with both hands. Then he stood up again and held the Divine Decree in his arms.
When the emperor saw that Jia Ke had received the holy decree, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but he said with a smile on his face: "Jia Aiqing, this time I will work hard for you." You must take care of your health this time, the court can't do without you. ”
Jia Ke looked at the emperor's smiling appearance, and felt very tired in his heart, but he had to kneel down again and said: "The minister will definitely live up to the emperor's expectations this time, defeat the Tatars, and return triumphantly." ”
