203 The Hussar General of the Ming Dynasty
After Liu Xingzuo finished all the lines he was going to talk about yesterday and said it a little quickly, he asked the commander of the Jinyi Guard beside him to continue to explain in detail the layout and significance of the Daming Martyrs' Hall. And he himself left quickly and headed for the Forbidden City.
At this time, in the Imperial Palace, a number of meritorious soldiers have been rewarded, and vacant positions have also been arranged. There is still no arrangement for the general army of Datong and the general army of Xuanfu, as well as the post of governor of Liaodong.
In the deliberations of the day before yesterday, the previous official positions had been discussed and determined, so the cabinet drafted the decree, and the emperor used the seal to complete the process of the decree. The remaining official positions are quite special, so they were not immediately announced.
For example, the drought in Shaanxi has been repeated for many years, and there have long been thieves, and there is a tendency to intensify. Although Yang He, the governor of the three sides, made an understatement in the report, other officials did. If it weren't for Jianyu's invasion of Gyeonggi in October, I'm afraid the center of gravity of the imperial court would have shifted to Shaanxi long ago.
And Fugu County, where Shaanxi and Shanxi meet, has been captured by Wang Jiayin. The flow of thieves is likely to jump into Shanxi. Datong is not far from Shaanxi and is one of the nine important towns of the Ming Dynasty. The general army of Datong not only has to defend against the Mongolian Tatars on the steppe, but also has to be distracted to suppress and exterminate the thieves who may have flowed over, so the selection of the general army of Datong needs to be cautious and has not yet been determined.
As for the general soldiers of Xuanfu, when they were discussed, Emperor Chongzhen directly disagreed and skipped it. Except for Cao Huachun and Liu Xingzuo, who knew that the Xuanfu General Army was concerned with the investigation of the Jin merchants, no one else knew or knew what the emperor meant by this. However, they can probably guess that the emperor already has a candidate for the general army of Xuanfu in his heart.
In addition, after Bi Zisu, the former governor of Liaodong and the main battle, was humiliated by the mutinous soldiers and committed suicide, Yuan Chonghuan, the former Liao governor of Ji, asked the then Chongzhen Emperor to say that his five-year plan to level Liao would be restricted by the governor of Liaodong, thus successfully allowing Emperor Chongzhen to revoke the post of governor of Liaodong.
Now it seems that Yuan Chonghuan really did not lie at that time, removed the governor of Liaodong, and drove the eunuchs back to Beijing, so that his peace was no longer restricted. As a result, he killed Mao Wenlong, was captured and integrated with the Mongolian tribes, and made a detour through the Mongolian steppe to invade the land of Gyeonggi.
Therefore, when Hu Guang was deliberating, he proposed to restore the post of governor of Liaodong. This is not to say that Sun Chengzong, who has already been designated as the governor of Jiliao, but the necessity of power restraint. Even the eunuchs of the prison army will be sent out in the near future.
It's just that the governor of Liaodong is really special, and ordinary civil officials don't have the courage to take office. Of course, Hu Guang did not look down on ordinary civil officials, and what he asked was the governor of Liaodong who could do a good job. For Sun Chengzong, we must grasp the proportions and not pull the hind legs; It is necessary to have unique views on the military and political affairs of Liaodong and be able to do a good job in the corresponding work. Such a talent, after discussing a few people, I felt that it was not good, and in the end I had to hang it first.
After the eunuch read out the holy decree, he retreated to his position, so that the Wenchen generals who were looking forward to it couldn't help but be a little disappointed, why was it gone?
Ma Shilong's brows were also furrowed, and he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, he worked so hard, but in the eyes of the emperor, he didn't even have any credit? With so many elite families, doesn't the emperor pay attention to it?
At this moment, he very much hoped that someone would come out to remind the emperor that he, the general who held a heavy army and was given the sword of Shang Fang, missed the reward!
However, it is a pity that there are no allies in the DPRK and China.
He was a little hesitant, not knowing whether to go out of the ranks by himself and recommend himself to His Majesty Mao Sui to go to Liaodong.
At this moment, outside the palace, it was reported that Liu Xingzuo, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, had an urgent military situation and asked for an audience.
When Hu Guang heard this, he thought that it was good to come in time, otherwise he couldn't be cold, and it would be bad to continue.
Thinking so, he immediately issued a loud order: "Xuan! ”
After a while, under the attention of hundreds of civil and military officials, Jinyiwei commanded Liu Xingzuo to stride into the Huangji Palace, his expression seemed to be a little excited, and as soon as he saw the salute, he said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has just received a secret report from Jinyiwei, saying that the Guanning army garrisoned Wu Sangui and led 800 cavalry troops, went out of the pass to kill the 3,000 Mongolian troops who invaded the land of Gyeonggi, returned with looted materials, and built Jingguan on the way back to Jianyu. ”
"In addition, Wu garrison led a thousand miles of surprise attacks, wiped out the two major tribes of Zarut and Bahrain, and erected flags in the place where the two tribes were exterminated. Now that it has arrived in Yongping, the casualties of the whole army are not more than 100, and they will arrive in Beijing in a few days! ”
Hearing this, there was an uproar in the Imperial Palace.
This...... Is this really the Ming army? Eight hundred against three thousand wins, and a thousand miles of strange attacks to exterminate the clan, even if this is not as good as Han Zhihuo's disease, it is not far behind! Who is this Wu Sangui, who is so powerful?
Of course, there are also people who know who Wu Sangui is, and immediately turned their heads to look at Zu Dashou. Sure enough, Zu Dashou was also stunned, and then his face was full of joy.
Among them, some people were not convinced, and secretly said in their hearts: "If I am also from Jiangmen, my father is a general soldier, and my uncle is also a general soldier, it will not be too easy to make up the eight hundred most elite cavalry." Isn't it just to fight the Mongolian Tatars, what's the big deal! The Zarut and Bahrain tribes were also not strong among the Mongol tribes.
No matter what he thought about below, after Liu Xingzuo finished playing, Hu Guang seemed to hear the news for the first time, his face was shocked, he stood up from the throne, and asked loudly: "Is the news true?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, it's a Jinyi Wei Tian-level secret report, it's confirmed!" Liu Xingzuo replied loudly, a little puzzled in his heart, why did the emperor let him say a heaven-level secret report? Could it be that in addition to the heaven level, there are also earth level and human level?
Other people who heard it also wondered, Jinyi Weitian-level secret report, what is this? Why haven't you heard of it before? Could it be something that the new commander of the Jinyi Guard made up? Listening to this tone, it seems that this heaven-level secret report is very powerful!
Hu Guang continued to act, and after listening to it, he was overjoyed and said, "Is it a heaven-level secret report?" Good, not bad! Then I can rest assured! ”
As soon as he said this, it immediately made the civil and military officials more curious about this heaven-level secret report. Endorsed by the emperor, this heaven-level secret report must be the highest level report of Jinyiwei!
They turned their heads to look at the Jinyi Guard's commander, and found him standing there with a proud face, as if this heaven-level secret report was the pride of the Jinyi Guard!
turned his head to look at the emperor again, but saw that the emperor seemed to be very happy, and even rubbed his hands, and then raised his head and repeated appreciatively: "Those who commit great wisdom will be punished even if they are far away!" Those who commit the Ming Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away......"
After saying a few words in a row, it seemed that he was savoring the taste in this sentence. Then he suddenly clapped his hands and said: "This Wu garrison is really my Hussar General of the Ming Dynasty, well said, those who commit the Ming Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away!" I want to reward him! ”
