After dark, dozens of people gathered in the gatehouse of the Fang Mansion.

All of them are square-winged black yarn, black satin-faced official boots, red or blue official clothes with supplementary clothes, and everyone has a close-fitting servant to serve, from time to time to add tea and water, or send some snacks...... The Fang Mansion did not entertain guests, and the people who waited in the gatehouse were not big people...... Even if there are a few red-robed officials who came out of Leng Cao Xian's yamen, most of the key officials with real power are waiting in the outer living room or the outer study at this time, and the really powerful henchmen have already been directly invited to the study.

When the news of Liaodong came, not only did the people in Jingshi shake, but the officialdom was also shaken.

Originally, all parties had plans to impeach Fang Congzhe, but later in the evening news came out from the cabinet that Emperor Wanli had sent a eunuch to pass on the decree, and the other party reprimanded him without a word, but on the contrary, he faintly expressed the support of the other party's first assistant. In this way, the impeachment of Shoufu will definitely not be done, and with the white enemy, he will still be disgraced in the end.

The expulsion of Shoufu in Daming is not the first time, nor will it be the last, there are successes and failures, the most important thing is the timing of the launch or figuring out the emperor's intentions.

There are the emperor's support for the first assistant who is still leaving the post, because of the trouble, all the forces of the court are opposed, even if the emperor supports him, he can only leave gloomily, and there are also cases where the ministers figure out the emperor's thoughts, and a few letters can be called to resign.

Fang Congzhe's foundation was still solid at this time, and most of the final firepower of the parties would fall on the heads of Shangshu of the Ministry of War and Yang Ho of Liaodong Jingluo.

The soldiers couldn't be defeated for a while, but Yang Hao was beaten by everyone who broke the drum, Fang Congzhe also made it clear that Yang Hao's sin this time was not light, and after the new Jingluo took office, he would find out the evidence in front of him, and then deal with it on the spot.

By the evening, the selection of the new economic strategy of Liaodong had become the focus of competition among the various parties.

"Liao affairs are very easy to do!"

Most of the guests in the concierge are local officials who have resigned from His Majesty, and they come to see the first assistant before leaving, and some are middle and lower-level officials who are ordered to do things, and they have political affairs related to the cabinet and the prime minister, and then find an excuse to come to the private residence to ask for a meeting, and some friendship. There are also protégé disciples, but the relationship is relatively estranged, so they are arranged to wait in the concierge, but this kind of person is mostly seen, Fang Congzhe will recite some incense.

The most common ones are those who come to hit the wooden bell to ask for errands, and the middle-aged officials who talk big are one of them.

When the news of Liaodong spread, the officials in the concierge living room of the Fang Mansion couldn't help but join in the fun, chat a few words about the affairs of Liaodong, and care about the current situation, although most of the people did not know about the affairs of Liaodong.

This person is not striking, short and thin, but when he speaks, he holds his head high, showing a strong sense of self-confidence and an overly ostentatious and proud look.

Such people are generally narrow-minded and hold grudges, and the people in the hall are not familiar with this person, but no one refutes his reply.

Some people recognize this person as Yao Zongwen in the former Hanlin Shu Jishi and then transferred to the household department to give the matter, giving the matter a low position, basically in the Ming Dynasty belongs to a group of people who walk sideways, and will be promoted very quickly in the future, Yao Zongwen is too flamboyant and exaggerated, not liked by Shangguan, two years ago his mother died of illness, Yao Zongwen Ding worried about returning to his hometown, at this time it should be just Ding worried and wanted to return to Beijing to reinstate, but well-informed people know that this person has many problems, and the matter of filling the vacancy and reinstatement has not been followed. This time, Fang Zongwen came to the Shoufu Mansion to ask for reinstatement.

No one was interested, Fang Zongwen didn't care, and said arrogantly: "Liao affairs should be used by Liao people to defend Liao soil, and there is no need for the imperial court to dispatch a large army, only need to select people, and select more strong people in the Liao military household to enrich the soldiers. ”

Someone laughed and said: "Lord Fang is confident, and he really knows how to fight." ”

This person was sarcastic, but Fang Zongwen said calmly: "I like to read military books since I was a child, but I am also called a soldier. If the imperial court releases me in Liaodong, the actual grain salary, the selection of strong men, and the actual camp, the Liao matter can be determined in an instant. ”

"Ignorance is mad!" Everyone present made a judgment in their hearts.

……

Fang Congzhe was waiting for a few important guests, he had already met the people of the Chu Party and the Qi Party before, and the candidates proposed by the two parties were the same, now as long as the people from the Donglin Party arrived, if there was no accident, the candidates for the new Jingluo could be decided tonight, and most of them were estimated to make the emperor feel satisfied.

At this moment, a long entourage walked in and held up the name of the person waiting to be seen in the gatehouse.

Fang Congzhe glanced at it casually, and motioned to leave the posts of a few protégés who were quite familiar, telling them to wait and wait, and the rest of the people would return it together, and they would not see any outsiders tonight.

"Master," Chang Sui reminded, "This Master Fang is in the middle of the matter." ”

The people of the prime minister should learn to recognize the importance of the official and give the master a proper reminder. It is only seven or seven in the matter, but it is well functioned, and the power is not even under the ministry.

"He's here to get back on his feet." Fang Congzhe said: "This person has a bad reputation, wrapping a few people to sell his name and hang him, and I'll talk about it later." ”

"Yes." The chief bowed in response, and said what Fang Zongwen said in the gatehouse.

"Use Liao people to defend Liao soil", this slogan is carried forward in the hands of Sun Chengzong, and later it was regarded as a guideline by many people, in fact, it is a huge pit, Fang Congzhe knows that the origin of this rumor is not without reason, there are many sneaky things, he did not comment more, only said softly: "Foolish!" ”

……

It has been more than ten days since the end of the Battle of Salhu, and the excitement and fatigue of the Eight Banners have gradually precipitated.

Hetuara regained calm on the surface, and each Niu Lu distributed a lot of booty, from the grain in the Ming army's baggage to the silver taels, to the war weapons on the battlefield, clothing, boots, robes, and of course, more armor and weapons, as well as a large number of war horses.

Zhang Han saw smiling faces all over the Eight Banners, the pain of the injury or death of his loved ones had been far away from these Jurchens, and all that remained was the joy of getting the spoils of war.

The spring color is also obvious, the surrounding mountains have been faintly covered with a layer of green, and a layer of fine green grass has grown on the black soil everywhere, and the originally lonely landscape has suddenly added a lot of spiritual color.

However, Zhang Han couldn't embark on the return journey for a while, his team was already anxious, Zhang Han himself couldn't see anything, only his closest people knew that Zhang Han was also very anxious, and he couldn't wait to leave immediately.

The reason for the temporary ban is that the Jurchens are suppressing Horqin, from last year to March, the Ming Dynasty has been preparing for a large-scale expedition, and the Fried Flower Department is also ready to move, and then somehow the Fried Flower Department calmed down the covetous heart of Guangning in the Ming Dynasty, and added pressure to the Horqin Ministry.

In order to stabilize the situation, Nurhachi sent Yang Guli to ride 1,000 people out of the fortress to put more pressure on Korqin, and in Nurhachi's own words to Zhang Han was to ensure the safety of his return trip, and the pressure was not only on Nenjiang Korqin, but also on Alu Korqin and the Five Divisions of Inner Khalkha.

Zhang Han expressed his gratitude on the surface, but in his heart he also understood that Hou Jin's behavior was to get close to the relationship between the two sides, which was equivalent to using a loudspeaker to explain the alliance between the two sides to the Mongols.

In addition, the Jurchens have decided to use troops against Kaiyuan and Tieling.

If Liaodong is the shoulder of the Ming Dynasty, Liaozhen and Jizhen are one, the prevention is the left-wing Mongolia and Jurchen, has always been the most important link in the Ming Dynasty's nine-sided defense body, Kaiyuan and Tieling is the hinterland of a town in Liaodong, these two places are the barrier of Shenyang and Liaoyang, especially Kaiyuan, as long as Kaiyuan is in, Qinghe Fort and other key passes have strong backup, and at the same time, the Yehe Department of Beiguan can also be moved and transferred, and the Ming side forms a horn mutual assistance trend.

As soon as Kaiyuan is lost, Ye He will definitely not be protected, Nuerhachi solves the last problem in the heart, and can use all his strength to use troops against the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time lay Kaiyuan and Tieling, which is equivalent to destroying the barrier north of Shenyang and Liaoyang, plus Fushun Pass has been broken, and then take Kai and Tie, the Jurchen can launch an attack on the two cities of Shenyang and Liaoyang at any time.

Capture Liao, Shen, the entire Liaozhong and Liaodong plus Liaonan are all in the hands, the Ming Dynasty in Liaozhen is only left in Liaoxi, and there is almost no danger to defend, and there is even a danger of retreating all the way to Shanhaiguan.

Houjin is stepping up the deployment of troops internally, the situation seems to be calm, but in fact, the undercurrent is surging, and Zhang Han is indeed adding chaos to this moment, so he can only endure it.

Zhang Han and his entourage went all the way southeast from Hetuala, passed through Niumaozhai, and arrived at the place of Abu Daligang.

Liu Ling was also wiped out by the whole army, and only a few thousand dynasties and fresh soldiers survived, and were later released back by Houjin.

Waiting was boring, Zhang Han decided to go all the way south and turn back after arriving at Kuandian.

Kuandian is also one of the famous tourist attractions in later generations, the terrain in the territory is mountain forest, in autumn when the layer of forest is dyed a piece of golden, the mountains are many strange and strange, stretch into pieces, the woodland is very dense, unlike the south after years of development the mountain forest is almost cut down, even if there is woodland is planted later, and the pure natural forest in the northeast can not be compared at all.

In addition, the river and waterfall are wrapped around the mountain like a jade belt, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.

It's just that when passing by Abu Dali Gang, when they saw the dense corpses of the Ming army on the hillside to the top of the mountain, everyone's mood was not very good.

Liu Ling was ambushed in the middle of the plan, and the Jin soldiers had a large number of Ming army armor, and after putting it on, they lied that the Ming army of the Juniper Department came to help, and as a result, Liu Ling was in the plan, and the Ming army's position was washed out at the beginning, and later after Liu Ling's death, thousands of Zhejiang soldiers were defeated on the mountain, the Jurchen cavalry galloped up, the Zhejiang soldiers collapsed, and there was no more than enough fighting between them, Zhang Han and others saw the battlefield when it was not many days, the weather was cold, the corpse almost remained in the state when it was killed, and even the blood stains on the ground were still very obvious, this is a mountainous area where people are rarely visited, The Eight Banners just stripped off the armor of the dead Ming army, picked up the weapons, and threw the corpses on the ground without asking, there were already some traces of wild beasts gnawing, when Zhang Han and others passed by, a group of red-eyed wild wolves were howling on the hill, and Chang Wei, who was angry, took the fire gun, and killed several of them with a bang, and finally drove the wolves away-

It's been a mess these days, and we'll see if we can return to normal time updates tomorrow.
