Chapter 252: Handing over power
In any dynasty, officials take office or leave office, there is a strict handover system, and the Ming Dynasty is certainly no exception.
However, this necessary procedure is now in Liaodong, but it has been deliberately omitted, because it is clearly written in the appointment order of the Ministry of Officials, there is no need to wait for someone to take over, and you can just report to the new post by yourself with the appointment order of the Ministry of Officials.
Yuan Yingtai's temporary residence, study.
Yuan Yingtai didn't hide it from Ye Xun, and there was no need to hide it, if he didn't have to go to Shenyang, someone would report this matter to Ye Xun, and now it will be up to Ye Xun to take it.
After listening to Yuan Yingtai's words, Ye Xun was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "When does Lord Yuan plan to leave?" ”
Yuan Yingtai sighed, to be honest, he didn't agree with the decision of the imperial court to transfer all the officials in Liaodong, what was this for? Give up Liaodong?
Although Ye Xun is also a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, this move by the imperial court is undoubtedly forcing Ye Xun to go further and further on the road of self-reliance.
The soldiers and civilians of Liaodong, who had been brutalized by the Jurchens, were already resentful of the imperial court, but they were grateful to Ye Xun, and now the imperial court suddenly came to such a hand, which was equivalent to completely pushing the Liaodong soldiers and civilians to Ye Xun's side.
If the land was taken away by the Jurchens, it can be said that the war was unfavorable, and if the land was handed over to an outsider who was not surnamed Zhu like this, it would be difficult to say that this was giving up the foundation of the ancestors.
"The court's order is very urgent, and the old man will set off in two days, but Gonggong Ye doesn't need to worry too much, the old man will definitely play it to His Majesty, so that His Majesty will be reinstated, and the old man also believes that those people of insight in the court will never sit idly by and ignore this matter."
Yuan Yingtai's words Ye Xun believes that Zhu Youxiao's ascension to the throne is too short, and he can't talk about completely controlling the imperial court, if Ye Xun guessed correctly, this matter must have been secretly carried out by those Donglin Party members and Zhu Youxiao, otherwise those trolls in the court would have sprayed Zhu Youxiao and their bloody heads a long time ago.
Now it is a normal transfer of officials, and if there is no intention to investigate, no one will know that the officials in the entire Liaodong have been transferred.
This trick is enough to damage Ye Xun, and it really hit Ye Xun's vital point, but Ye Xun doesn't plan to keep people, they all say that the twisted melon is not sweet, not to mention people, instead of keeping the trouble and pulling the hind legs, it is better to let them get out of the way as soon as possible.
smiled and waved his hand and said: "It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, there are some things that can't be forced, don't solve any problems at that time, and then put yourself in, that's fine, I won't save trouble"
"Actually, I don't want Lord Yuan to go, if one day Lord Yuan is unwilling to stay in the capital, the gate of Liaodong will be open for Lord Yuan at any time."
Yuan Yingtai can be said to have a lot of emotion at the moment, he has not worked with Ye Xun for a long time, but he admires Ye Xun's mind and ability from the bottom of his heart, if possible, he really doesn't want to leave Liaodong, but the king's fate is difficult to disobey, he can only choose to obey his fate against his will.
Ye Xun did not eat at Yuan Yingtai's mansion, but came directly to the Liaoyang camp, no matter what the circumstances, controlling the army is the first priority.
There are still 5,000 men and horses in the Liaoyang battalion, and the officers are all promoted by Ye Xun, so there is absolutely no problem in terms of loyalty.
When they were on the road, Ye Xun told Cheng Yu what had happened, and then the two of them thought of a serious problem at the same time, that is, the army.
Liaodong's army does support Ye Xun, but after all, most of the generals are military generals appointed by the previous imperial court, and it is no problem for these people to leave, but if they want to take the army away, it will definitely not work.
After discussing with Cheng Yu, Ye Xun issued several orders to the generals of the garrisons in various places, with only one meaning, that is, anyone who wants to leave can leave, but he must not bring a single soldier, otherwise he will be his Ye Xun's enemy.
It is definitely not enough to do these alone, and at the same time, it is necessary to spread some rumors among the various armies, such as the imperial court intends to abandon Liaodong, but Ye Gonggong insists on protecting the Liaodong army and civilians, in order to prevent Ye Gonggong from having the ability to resist the Jurchen army, the imperial court is ready to transfer the Liaodong army and move all the military dependents away, etc.
The homeland is difficult to leave, when Ye Xun was there before, each family was divided into a lot of fields, and because of Ye Xun's existence, the life of the people in Liaodong has become more and more stable, in this case, who wants to leave their hometown to live in a strange place?
The terrible thing about this thing is that it will go out of shape as the number of people who know about it increases, and it will become more and more evil.
After doing this, Ye Xun and Cheng Yu's eyes were fixed on one place at the same time, that is, Guangning.
Any army entering and leaving Liaodong, in addition to the Shanhaiguan Pass, which must pass, Guangning must also pass through, so Ye Xun must firmly control this place.
Li Guangrong, the general soldier of Guangning, was also appointed by the imperial court, and when Ye Xun came back from the grassland and passed by him, he also asked Ye Xun if he would be Wang Zhen, and it should be said that this person was still loyal to the imperial court.
If that's the case, the guards of this place will have to be replaced by Ye Xun's lineage, not only that, but in the process of changing generals, I'm afraid a bloody conflict will not be avoidable.
Time was pressing, Ye Xun immediately ordered Cao Bianjiao and Zhang Qi to gather people, and he wanted to take down Li Guangrong in person.
The men and horses were assembled, and before they could leave the camp, a group of men and horses came outside the camp, this team of people and horses only had a few hundred people, and the leader was Li Guangrong.
Hearing that it was Li Guangrong who came, Cheng Yu couldn't help laughing and said: "My father-in-law is too worried"
Ye Xun nodded and said, "I hope so"
After saying that, he walked straight out of the tent, Li Guangrong came here in person, which should show his attitude, so Ye Xun had to greet him in person, and this was also his Ye Xun's attitude.
Li Guangrong saw Ye Xun coming out from afar, hurriedly threw off the stool and dismounted, and then knelt down on one knee and gave Ye Xun a standard military salute.
Ye Xun stepped forward, pulled Li Guangrong with his own hands, and said with a smile: "General Li can not pinch and calculate, knowing that I am going to find the general?" ”
Li Guangrong smiled bitterly and said: "The last general is afraid that when Gonggong Ye goes, he will be unexplainably clear."
Li Guangrong also received an order from the Ministry of War, and it is also a rich land in the south, Li Guangrong is a veteran oilman, so he can't see the greasy in this? The imperial court's move was obviously aimed at Ye Xun.
If he were an ordinary person, I am afraid that he would happily go to work, but Li Guangrong did not, because he was from Liaodong, and there were his fathers and fellow villagers here, and he had a deep affection for this land, so he didn't want to go to any rich land at all.
On the other hand, Li Guangrong is also an aspiring general, and the value of a military general is reflected on the battlefield, rather than going to the south to be pampered, so he resolutely tore up the order of the imperial court and brought his own soldiers to Ye Xun to show his heart.
followed Ye Xun to the big tent of the Chinese army, and before Ye Xun could speak, Li Guangrong took out the soldier seal letter from his arms and handed it over.
"Father-in-law, the last general asks to go to the command of General Cao of Kuandian to obey orders, please ask for father-in-law's permission"
Because Quang Ninh wants to guard against Mongolia, there are 20,000 troops stationed, and with this talisman, the Quang Ninh garrison can be mobilized.
