Chapter 356: These Rebels and Thieves!
"What is this for? No one listened to me? ”
Yang Qing said very unhappily.
This incident made him very shameless, at least with Princess Kunxing, although he knew that his cronies were also surging, but it was still a bit too much to be so rampant and openly intercepted, what was this for? Do you want to develop into recruiting nuclear staff? Obviously, the generals of the northern front, especially Gao Dejie, who have been resident for many years, have been developing towards the pride of soldiers!
This guy has indeed been based in the north for many years.
He is a cavalry army, there must be enough nomadic space, how much arable land does it have to waste in the south to feed a cavalry army? It is said that his cuirassier brigade is one person and two horses, and the entire army adds up to nearly 30,000 horses, and the two mansions of Weihui and Huaiqing, which happened to be received from Li Zicheng, could be grazed by the cavalry after moving south. The Yellow River water transport ensured the supply of supplies, and the Heyang pontoon bridge to the south could provide a land connection between the cavalry and the rear, and this cavalry became the greatest threat to the Qing army on the flank.
"You go to Guide and follow the Tang King to Luoyang."
Yang Qing said to Yang Yong.
With this Jinyi Weibei Town envoy to follow, it is enough to show his attitude, and those generals will sober up.
"Also, transfer Gao Dejie back and let Wu Guogui replace him, Liu Shixun is not effective in protecting the envoy, he will be relieved of the guard of Guide Town, and transferred back to his hometown The First Army of the Guards will arrange a commander for him! Send an order to Zhengzhou, I don't want any more Jiannu attacks in the future! ”
He then spoke to a staff officer.
It's not just these two bastards, it's clear that he's going to have to swap the northern guards with the south. Unlike the rotation system of the Ming army's garrison armies, these town guards rarely rotate, and the combat troops can not be familiar with the situation, after all, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army is very balanced. In addition to the three armies of the Guards, which are indeed the strongest in combat, there are also restrictions on the use of the northern chariot infantry and the southern mountain infantry, and the other chariot infantry corps are almost the same as the mountain infantry corps. No matter where it is changed, as long as the brigade-level formation is opened, it is basically the same, but as a theater commander, you must be familiar with the situation, which also leads to the fact that those commanders and town guards are rarely rotated, for example, Zheng Chenggong has always been the commander of Dengzhou, and Liu Shixun has also been a town guard envoy for four years.
Of course, it is impossible to become a feudal town.
After all, combat units are constantly rotated between the first and second lines.
But it is impossible not to snake.
It is impossible to rotate the militia brigades under the command of these people, and the militia brigades along the Yellow River whose duty is to maintain the river are all permanently resettled along the river, and in fact, most of them have fled from the north and south and are resettled on the spot to maintain the Yellow River.
"Believe in the anger of the public!"
Li Yutian said with a smile.
Then he watched Yang Yong and those staff officers leave.
"Xingong, they are indeed reckless, but they are all out of loyalty, our Daming is very good now, and they don't want to have twists and turns."
He went on to say.
"You have a share, too?"
Yang Qing looked at him and said.
"Uh, Xiaguan is just guessing!"
Li Yutian hurriedly said.
Of course, it is difficult to say whether it is a part or not, Yang Qing's cronies are also divided into factions, and he and Gao Dejie happen to be the same faction, these old Wu Sangui departments led by Gao Dejie and Wu Guogui back then, but he was the one who masterminded Yang Qing. These Liaomin groups, which moved south that year, have developed into the largest faction under Yang Qing, and there are also Zhang Mingzhen, who are from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Ma Shiying, and those from the southwest, in short, there are many factions.
This kind of thing is also unavoidable.
Any force will have factions, Yang Qing's party itself is a collection of interests, it is strange if there are no factions, these factions are also not very harmonious with each other, and there are many open and secret fights. For example, Ma Shiying and Li Yutian disagreed, Song Quan didn't like the Zheng family very much, Gao Dejie didn't like Liu Zhaoji very much, and Zhang Mingzhen didn't agree with Huang Binqing, although they were actually from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. With the increasing scale of his subordinates, there has also begun to be a competition for interests, to put it simply, the benefits that Yang Qing can give cannot catch up with the expansion of the team.
It's like when a monkey unifies the Wa Kingdom and finds that the Wa Kingdom is not enough.
However, they are all consistent in thinking about letting Yang Qingmou usurp the throne.
This is like a monkey choosing to expand outward, if the internal interests are not enough, then expand to grab more interests and then divide, so that it is enough. In the eyes of Yang Qing's internal cronies, the Donglin Qunxian and the official positions under their buttocks, the gentry of Jiangsu and Zhejiang and the wealth they control, these are all directions of expansion. Therefore, in terms of resisting and welcoming the driver, it is not only out of fear that the emperor will come back to liquidate, these generals are no longer afraid of the emperor's liquidation, they want to use this incident to push Yang Qing to the throne, and then purge those hostile forces to seize the things in the hands of the latter. So Yang Qing had a hard time suppressing them, he cultivated a powerful force of his own, but this force was too big, it was like a giant beast that had grown up, and it was no longer satisfied with the cage that Yang Qing gave it.
It wants more space.
At the very least, it had to be a bigger cage.
"Don't always think crankily, I made it very clear, I have already arranged everything, and you will disrupt my plan if you do things again, I don't want this kind of thing to happen again, Your Majesty's must be carried out normally!"
Yang Qing said.
After speaking, he threw down Li Yutian and left.
Li Yutian sighed slightly in the back.
Of course, Yang Qing didn't want to tell them that an empress was ready for the time being, not that he was afraid that they wouldn't be able to accept it, in fact, this matter was also an opportunity for him to test his subordinates. Although this is too much like a politician, in fact, the spies of Jinyi Wei Nanya are closely monitoring the government and the opposition, including his cronies. The reactions of these people to the incident will be summarized by Yuanyuan, and then he will distinguish between his radicals, neutrals, and wall-to-wall factions, which is simply a good opportunity to screen his subordinates.
It was inevitable that his team would expand too quickly, and there would be some opportunists among them.
He also needs to clean up internally.
Opportunists are the best at hiding, and once they lurk and enter his core, they hide like a virus and give themselves a fatal blow when it matters most. But he can't play like steel, and would rather kill three thousand by mistake than miss one, after all, his team is limited and can't withstand such a toss. So he needs to clear them more precisely, that is, to create a critical moment for these people, and then let them be exposed.
Now is the best opportunity.
From the moment the Son of Longxing stepped into the area controlled by the Ming army, all those speculators would be exposed with the footsteps of His Majesty returning to the capital.
So Zhu Cihong must come back.
I have to say that His Majesty is a tragedy, Li Zicheng pushed him to be cannon fodder, Donglin Qunxian pushed him to be a gunman, Zhang Xianzhong and others pushed him to be cannon fodder, and Yang Qing just wanted to use him as a stepping stone and touchstone to complete the modern nationalization of the Ming Dynasty and test the loyalty of his subordinates by the way. I'm afraid that only His Majesty the Emperor himself is really full of ambition as the king of a country, but he doesn't know that he is a pawn for the entertainment of these bastards......
"These rebels and thieves!"
Yang Qing said with emotion.
Then he walked back with a worried look on his face.
His troubles are in the back.
He still has to explain this matter to Princess Kunxing, but fortunately, if the language does not make sense, he can also use strong means to explain it physically, after all, the nearest road to a woman's heart is below, and the advantage of Xinguo Gong is still obvious at this point.
Of course, this is not enough for outsiders.
Immediately afterwards, Jinyi Weibei Town Fu envoy, Yang Yong, who was like Yang Qing's slave......
He is Yang Qing's slave himself.
It's just that after being a Jinyi guard, Yang Qing burned his deed of sale, in short, as he rode a stagecoach relay to Guide at full speed, the team finally set off again. In order to ensure the safety of the escort, he also rushed to Wei Hui urgently, replaced Wu Guogui, the new commander of the cavalry army who replaced Gao Dejie, and released two hussar brigades to sweep on the north bank. In addition, the infantry under the jurisdiction of the two town guards of Zhengzhou and Guide also crossed the Yellow River, guarded the north bank of the Yellow River, and even recruited four militia brigades to participate, and finally sailed safely through the Tongwaxiang under their strict protection.
Immediately afterwards, the Ming cavalry encountered a Mongol cavalry south of the Eastern Ming Dynasty and fought fiercely, and the latter fled in a hurry after being defeated.
It is estimated that they attacked the caravan.
After all, the escort team carried 400,000 gold coins, and Dolgon was almost crazy at present, and it was difficult to endure in the face of such a huge sum of money, and it was normal to send troops to try to rob it, in short, the attack on the escort team was thus reasonably explained.
As for how the Mongol cavalry robbed the boats on the Yellow River more than a mile wide......
Don't worry about the details!
Zhu Yujian and Mu Tianbo, who were rafting up, finally arrived in Luoyang, Yuan Zongdi led 20,000 Shun troops to meet Yu Luokou, these years he took the Shun army stationed in Luoyang has re-dredged the Luo River, Zhu Yujian's fleet entered the Luo River under the tow of the slender man and arrived in Luoyang under the protection of the Shun army. He and Gu Junen, the envoy sent by Li Zicheng, jointly checked the 400,000 gold coins he brought, and the latter officially signed the receipt letter, and the first 4 million dragon yuan Qin Wang's military expenses for the Western Expedition were delivered.
The Son of Heaven of Longxing is still in Nanjing, and the countdown has begun.
The Shun army himself transported the gold to Shaanzhou in a carriage, Zhu Yujian and Mu Tianbo stayed in Luoyang, and Chang Yanling, who was with him, went to Chang'an alone.
The last time he was attacked, he was at the back.
This Marquis Huaiyuan is also the only one among the three envoys who is not injured, Zhu Yujian was more or less slightly injured, although Mu Tianbo was the most seriously injured, but at this time it is also a matter of state affairs, so he had to wrap a bandage and continue to be loyal to the emperor. In short, Chang Yanling went to Chang'an first to prepare, Zhu Yujian and Mu Tianbo continued to wait for follow-up money and food in Luoyang, and Yang Yong, who escorted them, returned to Nanjing immediately after sending them to Luoyang.
There are still a large number of prisoners waiting to be tortured in the prison of Yang Zhenfu's envoy, and there is no time to waste precious time with them.
