After Min Xingzhi hurriedly went out, Wang Ning did a simple combing of Fang Cai's affairs, and then didn't pay much attention to it. The New Year is approaching, so let's talk about these things until the New Year. Of course, you should also find some time to understand the situation with Su Wenji.

This was arranged in advance and in this way.

Even though he has been back for a few days, he has seen the same people who should be seen, and the things that need to be dealt with urgently at the moment are basically straightened out, and Wang Ning felt bored for a while.

Closing the door and ignoring the messy things outside, I must have suddenly felt a little uncomfortable because of the experience in Hangzhou.

Because of Su Yuan's strong request, Su Xiaoyan's mother and son must not come back here before the Chinese New Year, Wang Ning can understand, after all, this is not a safe place, especially after he comes back, I don't know how many people are hiding in the shadows, and they want to borrow him to do something.

Su Xiaoyan's mother and son can't stand it at all, and they shouldn't have to endure this kind of toss.

Therefore, he didn't say anything more about Su Yuan's decision.

The second year of Shenwu came to an end in such chaos.

At the end of the year, the long-standing culture deeply rooted in the bones seems to offset some unpleasant experiences, and everyone in the world prepares in the best way they think, and for the time being, some pain is taken to heart, even if there is some suspicion of self-deception.

The porridge shack outside the city has been erected, and under the impetus of some people secretly, this atmosphere has reached a certain extreme.

Only after seeing these down-and-out people outside the city can we realize how miserable the world has become.

However, there are only a few people who think like this.

Recovery after the war is a long process, and even if the new dynasty is too strong to heal itself, it will probably take a long time. At least that's the situation in the north.

Xingzhou, in the Zhizhou Yamen, Qin Ruihe summoned the surviving civil officials and generals, and in the hall of the group distribution, everyone's faces faded slightly, but they couldn't hide their expressions.

Xingzhou played an extremely important role in the Battle of the Northland, and less than a third of the people survived before the war. The loss of the Anguo army is more than two-thirds, and the loss of Xingzhou's elite labor is also as high as more than half.

As the chief official of Xingzhou, Qin Ruihe had mixed feelings about this.

The only thing to be thankful for is that Xingzhou was preserved in the end.

Qin Ruihe coughed twice, his voice was a little hoarse: "The news from Beijing has been transmitted, and arrangements have been made for the current situation in Xingzhou. ”

"In addition, the defection of the Pingxi Army of the Guide Prefecture has been dealt with in Jingli." Speaking of this, Qin Ruihe looked at Gu Hongyi on the side, "From now on, Gu Hongyi, the commander of the Anguo Army, will be transferred to the command of the Pingxi Army. ”

Gu Hongyi looked at it and was very surprised, and everyone present also looked at it curiously and talked in a low voice.

The generals who originally survived were even brighter at this time, expecting something.

Qin Ruihe raised his hand to signal quiet, and only after a moment did he continue: "As for the Anguo Army, the current structure is incomplete, and there are no clear instructions in the capital. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a basin of cold water in the afternoon, but everyone also understood that even if they really wanted to recruit troops, they should be sent by the capital, and it was absolutely impossible to delegate this right to the people of Xingzhou.

followed Qin Ruihe and said: "Tang Tong, the former deputy general of the Jingbian Army, was transferred to the command of the Xingzhou Military Garrison, and the Anguo Army was temporarily assigned to the command of the Xingzhou Military Division. ”

As soon as Qin Ruihe's voice fell, someone below stood up and asked: "Your Excellency just said that the Anguo Army will not make arrangements for the time being, why is it assigned to the Xingzhou Military Division now?" ”

Gu Hongyi's eyes turned over, and he was about to interrupt, Qin Ruihe had already spoken: "This is an expedient measure for the imperial court, after the relevant matters of the Anguo Army are decided, it will naturally be divided into the Xingzhou Military Division, and the current situation is not quiet, and the imperial court has no choice but to do so." ”

Speaking of this, Qin Ruihe paused, got up and said: "The imperial court allocated 50,000 forbidden troops to the north, except for those who rushed to the northwest, there are still more than 20,000 people left in Taiyuan Mansion, more than 20,000 people, I am afraid that they will not go south to return to Beijing in a short time, which means that the garrison army of Guide Mansion, Taiyuan Mansion, and Zhending Mansion has exceeded the quota, and at this time, the imperial court is helpless!" ”

"My lord should know that after this battle, the garrison army of the original border three provinces has been weakened to two or three percent, even if 20,000 forbidden troops are added, it is less than half of the pre-war period.

Gu Hongyi knocked on the table and stood up: "The court has its own arrangements for this matter, and we will wait for the army to obey orders." ”

Gu Hongyi spoke, and the voice in the hall weakened. Gu Hongyi immediately looked at Qin Ruihe and motioned for him to continue.

Qin Ruihe got up again and said, "Yan Qi, the former deputy general of the Anguo Army, was transferred to the command of the Armed Forces Division of the Daimyo Mansion on the same day. Speaking of this, Qin Ruihe glanced at the general who had just spoken, and although the other party said that he was surprised, he did not mean to be happy.

Qin Ruihe followed a series of remarks and sent a few resignations, and the generals present were basically transferred everywhere, and everyone understood what the imperial court was thinking.

But everyone also understands in their hearts that the Anguo Army is no longer an Anguo Army from now on.

Although all of them have been promoted, it is not easy to become an official in a place where they are not familiar with life, not to mention, how can those civil officials who are always pressed on the heads of military generals make them happy.

After the meeting was dismissed, they each left, and only Gu Hongyi and Qin Ruihe were left in the hall, the two of you look at me, I will look at you, and finally Qin Ruihe took the lead in breaking the silence: "General Gu should understand what the imperial court plans to arrange like this, so there is no need to look at me like this." Then Qin Ruihe picked up the document that he had been reading for a long time from the table and handed it over, "I'm the same, after Xinzhizhou comes over, I will go to Xiliang." ”

Gu Hongyi took it, "This is...... Degraded? ”

Qin Ruihe smiled: "The affairs in the capital, although you and I are not here, we both know it, at the moment Xingzhou is saved, but so many people have died, how can those few waste this opportunity?" I haven't resigned, but I'm lucky. ”

Gu Hongyi stood up, and in the end, it was Qin Rui and this chief official who had an accident, thinking about this, he also understood Qin Ruihe's efforts in this.

He is a military general, and this identity does not mean a scapegoat, anyway, this time, it must be Qin Rui and one person who took the responsibility.

Gu Hongyi hugged his fists and bowed, and Qin Ruihe greeted him with a smile: "You and I work together, there is no need to be like this!" ”

The words in the hall did not come out, but the wind came in from outside!

A big mess!
