Seeing that no one spoke for a while, Wang Zaijin, the minister of military aircraft, said: "Your Majesty, the establishment of a military control zone in Jizhou is still a minister's proposal, but the minister is now more interested in the Bohai Naval Region, and the minister hopes to go to the Bohai Naval Region as a military overseer." ”

Wang Zaijin wanted to go to Jizhou at the beginning because he didn't want to be with Sun Chengzong, whether it was too far from the relationship or eloquence, plus there were some festivals before, it was better to be a soil emperor far away, but after hearing that the Bohai Naval Region was going to be established, Wang Zaijin's heart was alive again. At the end of last year, Wang Zaijin once took people to inspect the border affairs, and had an intuitive understanding of the difficult environment along the Great Wall, and it was a little gloomy to think that he would have to go to the mountains to bump in the mountains when he was old, and the seat of the Bohai Naval Region was in Tianjin, and he didn't have to go to Jizhou to cross the mountains and mountains near his home, and it would be stupid not to fight for it.

There is also a reason why Wang Zaijin dared to fight for the post of overseer of the Bohai Naval Region, he had served as the political envoy of Jiangxi, the right deputy of the imperial history, and the squire of the military department, and he had a certain say in the coastal anti-Japanese affairs and canal affairs.

Sure enough, seeing that no one was arguing with Wang Zaijin, Tianqi nodded and said: "I have read the books written by Lord Wang, such as "Tongcao Class Edition" and "Compendium of Coastal Defense", although the books are not very detailed, but there are some insights, Lord Wang is indeed suitable for the position of Bohai Overseer, so let's decide first." ”

Among the few people in the Military Affairs Yuan who are qualified to compete with Wang Zaijin, some are afraid of seasickness and don't want to have anything to do with the sea, but more are afraid of provoking Sun Chengzong's unhappiness, everyone knows that Sun Chengzong also wants Wang Zaijin to leave early, since both of them want to see each other, it is boring for others to make trouble from it.

The new Minister of Military Aircraft Yuan Keli once lectured on the history of the Apocalypse with Sun Chengzong, although he did not teach for two days, and he did not know a variety of advanced teaching modes such as heuristics and interactions like Sun Chengzong, which won the love of the Apocalypse, but it was also suitable for teachers and students with the Apocalypse. Seeing that Wang Zaijin was designated as the Bohai Overseer, he said: "Your Majesty, the minister also has some experience in the establishment of the Naval Division, since the Lord Wang is appointed as the Bohai Overseer, the minister is willing to serve as the Liaodong Overseer, and then the Liaodong Naval Division and the Bohai Naval Division cooperate with each other to annihilate the Jiannu." ”

Tianqi thought for a while and asked Gao Di, the governor of Liaodong: "Lord Gao, after Liaodong appoints the overseer, the position of superintendent will be revoked, I don't know if Lord Gao wants to be on the front line or want to go back to Beijing?" ”

Gao Di stayed in Ningyuan for half a year, he didn't exercise much power, but he was angry a lot in the open and secret, and his arrogant generals respected him in the open, but they looked down on him in their bones and thought he was honest, and civil officials like Yuan Chonghuan felt that he didn't understand bullshit, and even looked down on him. The last time Hou Sui came to visit, he felt that he was not as respected in Ningyuan as he was even a little imperial history, plus Liaodong was cold and dangerous, and the sea was going to freeze, not to mention that the Jurchens could appear under the city with knives and guns in a blink of an eye, so he had long wanted to leave that place of right and wrong.

Seeing the heavenly inspiration, Gao Di knew that he couldn't hide it, so he said: "Your Majesty, as long as you can serve the imperial court, you can be anywhere, but the minister's old cold legs were sent again a while ago, and Lord Yuan is willing to go to Liaodong, so the minister will go back to Beijing to recuperate his legs first, and then listen to the emperor's dispatch." ”

Tianqi nodded and said: "Lord Gao has worked hard for half a year, go back to Beijing to recuperate, then the post of Liaodong Overseer will be given to Lord Yuan, who wants to go to the rest of the Jizhou Overseers?" ”

Sun Chengzong saw that Gao Di was going back to Beijing to recuperate, and the only ones left were Zhang Weiying and Wang Yongguang, and it was not good for either of them to go. Zhang Weiying was not the material to go to the front to lead the troops, and the Military Intelligence Department and the Military Justice Department in the Military Affairs Yuan could not do without him. Wang Yongguang is mainly responsible for contacting the Ministry of War, and he usually respects Sun Chengzong, and it is not easy for Wang Yongguang to find someone so informed and interesting if he goes to his side. Thinking of this, Sun Chengzong said: "Your Majesty, the minister Baoju is qualified for the post of Jizhou overseer. ”

Hearing that Sun Chengzong had a candidate, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Jizhou itself is also cold, and there are many mountains around, and the young man can also say that he is interested in the strong capital, and the elderly are too irresponsible for their bodies if they want to go. When Tianqi heard Sun Chengzong say this, he asked, "Who is Mr. going to protect?" ”

Sun Chengzong said: "Liaodong passed through Xiong Tingbi, and the minister not only promoted Xiong Tingbi as the governor of Jizhou, but also promoted Wang Huazhen as the governor of Jizhou, I don't know what the emperor wants?" ”

Tianqi thought for a while and said: "Xiong Tingbi has a calm and coarse personality, there should be no problem in defending Jizhou, this is about to be March, last time Wang Huazhen negotiated with Lin Dan Khan of the Mongolian Khan Department, he became the governor of Jizhou and is facilitating follow-up negotiations, if everyone has no opinion, it will be decided." ”

Seeing that the apocalypse agreed, Sun Chengzong continued: "Ningqian Dao Yuan Chonghuan held the city to pacify the army and the people in this battle of Ningyuan, his merits and abilities are obvious to all, according to the requirements of this adjustment of the official grade, the Daotai and the state guard should be abolished, and only the prefect position should be left, and the minister's meaning is to let Yuan Chonghuan serve as the governor of Liaodong, firstly, he has this ability, and secondly, he is also very familiar with the local area, so as not to change people and affect the situation in Liaodong." ”

Hearing that Sun Chengzong was going to promote Yuan Chonghuan, everyone else thought: "There are people in this court who are good officials, and this Yuan Da fooled on the big tree of Old Man Sun, and in less than two years, he was promoted from the seven-rank county order to the third-grade governor, and it seems that he has to find someone to rely on." Only Yuan Chonghuan glanced at Sun Chengzong gratefully while nervously listening to what the apocalypse had to say.

Tianqi thought for a while and said: "I don't look at merit but ability when arranging positions, this governor is a third-grade official, and he must be fifty years old according to the age limit, and the official position of this Liaodong governor belonging to the military control zone can be reduced by one level according to the regulations, and the minimum requirement is forty years old, Yuan Chonghuan, are you forty years old this year?" ”

Hearing Tianqi ask about his age, Yuan Chonghuan said loudly: "If you go back to the emperor, the minister was born in the twelfth year of Wanli, and he is already forty and three this year. ”

Tianqi nodded and said, "Since there is no problem with age and ability, let's be appointed as the governor of Liaodong." ”

Yuan Chonghuan was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you, Emperor!" Thank you, Lord Sun! ”

Sun Chengzong also felt embarrassed when he saw that he had recommended several people one after another, and said with a slight smile: "Your Majesty, the overseer and the governor have been decided, is it better to discuss the positions of the general soldier and the general?" Do you nominate it outright or let everyone compete? ”

Tianqi thought for a while and said: "This civil official is different from a military general, what a civilian official needs to do needs to be meticulous and thoughtful, so it depends on each person's strengths and interests, this military general doesn't need to ask so much, just appoint it directly." A soldier is to have an indomitable momentum to open the road and build a bridge in the mountains and rivers, and it is not a soldier's job to pick and choose, and everyone knows that all actions are under command, and I don't think anyone will say anything. ”

Sun Chengzong listened to the words of the apocalypse and said: "In this case, here is a list that was drawn up only yesterday, and the emperor will see what additions and decreases are good to announce." ”

Tianqi took the list and looked at it and said: "A few days ago, Zhang Jing'an, the general of Ningyuan, played a performance, saying that he was willing to lead the mountain infantry battalion, and I saw that he was very organized when evacuating personnel and carrying materials before the Ningyuan War, and I had promised him a chance to win his title before, so I promoted him to deputy general. I remember that Xiong Tingbi also promoted him a while ago, so let him serve under Xiong Tingbi, and the others will be appointed according to the list. ”

Hearing Tianqi say this, everyone suddenly realized that if they want to be promoted, they not only have to have a good father, but also have to sell themselves.

At this time, Sun Chengzong announced: "There are two general soldiers under the Bohai Naval Region, Zhao Shujiao is the general army of the canal, and Mao Wenlong is the general of the southern Liaoning army, and Zu Dashou is the deputy general. In the Jizhou Military Region, Ma Shilong is the general of Jizhou, Zhang Jing'an is the deputy general, and Cao Wenzhao, Zuo Liangyu, and Zu Dabi are the generals. In the Liaodong Military Region, Man Gui is the general army of Ningyuan, and Wu Xiang and He Kegang are the generals. ”

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Sun Chengzong then announced the responsibilities of each person, Zhao Shujiao, the chief soldier of the canal, led 20,000 troops to take charge of the river defense of the canal, and Mao Wenlong, the chief soldier of southern Liaoning, and Zu Dashou, the deputy general, mainly established the coastal sea division and chose the opportunity to attack and harass the Jurchens. Ma Shilong led 10,000 troops to guard the mountain customs, and Zhang Jing'an, Cao Wenzhao, Zuo Liangyu, Zu Dabi and others trained and expanded the mountain infantry, cavalry, vehicle and artillery battalions, and hammer soldiers in their hands. Man Gui led 20,000 troops to defend Ningyuan Pass and Ningyuan City, and Wu Xiang and He Kegang each led a cavalry and a sailor.

On the third day after everyone had been ordered to leave, one man was fiercely opposed to the current military arrangement, and this person was Hong Chengchou, the senator of the two Zhejiang Chengxuan political left.
