Chapter 426: General Dingyuan
Five days later, news came from Bianjing, Wu Song and others were successfully sealed, Wu Song was named General Dingyuan, plus "Captain of the Cavalry", and led the soldiers and horses of Jingdong East Road and Hebei East Road to command the envoys.
Originally, the imperial court was going to seal Wu Song as the loyal general of the four products, Hebei Chengxuan, but there was Wu Zhi's instructions in advance, Wu Song was naturally very decisive to resign from this high position, the four products of Hebei Chengxuan, that is the high position of the commander-in-chief Hebei Roadless military horse, Wu Song actually resigned, but the Manchu Dynasty was impressed by it.
However, the five-rank military position is also a very high position in the army, General Dingyuan is equivalent to the rank of major general in later generations, and the commander is equivalent to the army commander in later generations.
Wu Song's cavalry lieutenant is a military honor, equivalent to a baron in the title system, and gradually promoted in the future is what people often call the marquis and king!
Although this title is low, it is extremely rare, and it cannot be obtained without great merit, but in the end, Wu Song also resigned.
- Or because of Wu Zhi's prior instructions.
Wu Song was so humble that not only did the emperor be very satisfied with him, but also praised him in the Manchu Dynasty.
The rest of the generals have their own rewards, Hua Rong was named a ranger general, and he was promoted to the head of Qingzhou soldiers and horses; Lu Junyi's name was actually heard of even by the emperor, knowing that he intended to join the army, and this time he made a great contribution to quelling the rebellion, and promoted the original virtual official position of Youwulang to the right military doctor, and promoted the head of the soldiers and horses of the Daimyo Mansion, Suo Chao was crowned as the captain of Zhenwu, and served as the commander of the soldiers and horses of the Daimyo Mansion, and led the soldiers and horses of the Daimyo Mansion together with Lu Junyi.
The golden gunner Xu Ning was originally the envoy of the forbidden army, but now he has been promoted to the position of the commander of the Tianwu Army because of his military merits, and he can be regarded as a senior commander in the forbidden army.
And Lu Zhishen Lin Chong Yang Zhi and them, when they went to Bianjing before, Wu Zhi was worried that they would cause any trouble because they were guilty before, after all, these three people had made a big fuss in Bianjing City, Lu Zhishen uprooted the weeping willows in Daxiangguo Temple, Yang Zhi slaughtered the bully "hairless big worm" Niu Er in the downtown of Bianjing, not to mention Lin Chong, who was originally a senior officer like the head of the forbidden army, committed the crime of bringing a knife into the White Tiger Hall, a major place in the military aircraft, and the ministers and even the emperor in the court knew one or two.
Originally, Wu Zhi wanted to remind them a few words before he went, although their crimes were all pardoned through legal means, but it was not good to show up in the court.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Wu Zhi spoke, he was blocked back by what they had said.
- "Don't the officials know about General Di Qing?" ”
Hearing this, Wu Zhi was stunned for a moment, and immediately laughed.
Yes, Di Qing was assigned to the army because of his crimes, so he made great contributions. In the Song Dynasty, civil officials would definitely be held accountable if their background was not clean, but military generals were different, in the eyes of the imperial court, the military camp was a place to accommodate criminals, and people like Wu Song Huarong who had no criminal record were a bit different!
The sage said: Knowing mistakes can be changed, and good is great. In the eyes of the literati in the imperial court, Lu Zhishen and Lin Chong Yang Zhi are simply too cute, which shows that the court is the truth of the universe to govern the world with benevolence!
Therefore, Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong, Yang Zhi, and they were each awarded military positions of not low grade such as deputy general and captain, and they were still under the direct leadership of Wu Song.
And those generals who were escorted into Beijing, the court was not embarrassed, the culprit Yelu Da Geri was dead after all, Yelu Qi was incorporated into the forbidden army and served as a cavalry leader, and the rest were released.
It is worth mentioning that Ye Liangchen and others who were rescued by Wu Song, Ye Liangchen was very guilty, but because the emperor was hindered by Wang Huang's affection, he left him alive and was demoted to Leizhou as a supervisor, Leizhou is in the southernmost part of the Great Song Dynasty, only a gorge away from Hainan Island, and it will be the most barbaric area in the Song Dynasty.
The rest of the captured generals were not so lucky, and they were all sent to Xining Prefecture in the northwest to replenish the army and fight with the party members.
…………
Knowing this, Wu Zhi's heart blossomed, Wu Songde's positions far exceeded Wu Zhi's expectations, although Wu Song held the five-way army before, but after all, it was a wartime emergency, once the war was over, Wu Song could keep the Jingdong East Road, which was already Amitabha.
But now the imperial court appointed Wu Song to lead the soldiers and horses of Jingdong East Road and Hebei East Road, and these two roads include the entire Jiaodong Peninsula and half of the Bohai Bay, which is one of the few roads in the Great Song Dynasty that has a naval army, which means that in the future, Wu Song can not only build a strong land army, but also build a Great Song Dynasty sailor army!
In Wu Zhi's view, after the Great Song Dynasty, the economy has developed, or various technologies have developed, then they will definitely march to the vast ocean!
On the other side of the ocean, there are countless huge untapped treasures!
…………
The current head of the Qingzhou Army is Hua Rong, Wu Song's future brother-in-law...... Lu Junyi Suochao is in charge of the soldiers and horses of the Daimyo Mansion, Qingzhou is under the Jingdong East Road, although the Daimyo Mansion itself is a "municipality directly under the central government" of the imperial court, but the soldiers and horses in it are under the jurisdiction of Hebei East Road, so they are still Wu Song's direct subordinates.
————
After Wu Song and they were rewarded, the emperor specially ordered them to stay in Bianjing for a period of time before leaving Beijing to take office, firstly, because it was in the scorching heat, and it was inconvenient to hurry, and secondly, the emperor knew that Wu Song, Lu Junyi, and Hua Rong all had superb martial arts and archery, and specially arranged for them to teach the prince and the princes martial arts riding and archery in private.
It's just to teach it in private, you must know that the person who officially teaches the prince to read or martial arts is the future "emperor", who has a formal official position, and is a member of the first and second grades!
But even if this kind of informal teaching is a great benefit, the ancients are the most important teacher, and the prince will ascend the throne in the future, who dares to say that Wu Song is not the emperor?
Later, Wu Zhi also knew that let Wu Song teach the prince and the prince, this suggestion was actually suggested by Tong Guan to the emperor in private, and not only that, according to the secret report, since Wu Song and they entered Beijing, Tong Guan has been extremely enthusiastic about Wu Song and them, and he will invite them with wine at every turn.
And Wu Song did not reject Tong Guan at all, and they went to eat and return drunk as soon as they went.
Although he was puzzled, Wu Zhi couldn't send someone to ask Wu Song about the specific reason, so he could only wait for them to come back and ask them clearly.
Wu Zhi also guessed that Tong Guan was so enveloped, if there was no other purpose, it must be to take Wu Song and them as henchmen.
This will have to be considered in the long run!
In any case, as a general, it is not a bad thing to often go to the boss to eat and drink, it is better than running around, not to mention who Tong Guan is, and the hot point he shows in Bianjing, whoever wants to fight Wu Song in the future must also consider whether he can afford to provoke Tong Guan.
With a wry smile, Wu Zhi shook his head, after all, he was not in the power center of the Great Song Dynasty, and he always had a feeling of seeing flowers in the fog for the center of the imperial court, so he didn't know what Tong Guan's strange behavior was thinking and purpose!
