Chapter 541: Dilemma
The civil and military forces of the Ming Dynasty echoed in unison: "The Nanguo Gong played for the benefit of the country and the people, and the ministers seconded it." ”
The young emperor saw that Nanguo Gong had no population on Hainan Island, and asked the imperial court to exile the criminal officials and his family to the poor countryside to increase the population, which he thought was feasible.
promised: "Yes, the Criminal Department records that in the future, all major crimes of rebellion will not be executed, and the three ethnic groups will be exiled to Qiongzhou." ”
Although Xu Guangqi is a scientist, he is not a fool, and he was overjoyed to see Huang Sheng's grace of asking for the saint, so he knelt down and said: "The old minister thanked the saint for the grace of the saint for not killing the student Sun Yuanhua, my emperor Shengming." ”
"Why did Aiqing say this......?" Chongzhen didn't react for a while, but he woke up in a blink of an eye. At this time, several officials who were good friends with Sun Yuanhua also came out of the class to kneel and thank them.
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department came out and said: "Your Majesty, will the officials Sun Yuanhua and Zhang Tao be sentenced to exile to Hainan Island without an edict for the rest of their lives?" ”
These two people are not a major crime of rebellion, of course, they are the criminal officials of Emperor Chongzhen who has just been exiled to Hainan Island for the crime of capital crimes, how could the emperor turn his eyes and slap himself in the face.
Chongzhen promised: "It's feasible, and I will do it in the future." ”
Huang Sheng made it an understatement to encircle Sun Yuanhua and Zhang Tao's direct family members to live on Hainan Island, and they could not leave for the rest of their lives if they were not pardoned by the imperial court.
Seeing that all his goals had been achieved, Huang Sheng didn't care whether he was scattered or not, and retired on the grounds that he was about to send troops and had a lot of affairs.
Seeing that Huang Sheng was in a hurry to work, the emperor was even happier and let him take care of himself.
Huang Sheng walked out of the Forbidden City and looked back at this majestic and solemn imperial city, and said in his heart, farewell, I will never come here again in the future, unless I become the master here.
This time, he brought people and horses to relieve the siege of Jinzhou in a high-profile manner, and if he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, he would be too long. The Huang family already has a population of several million, how could he, the leader, risk his life.
Huang Sheng will never tear his face with the imperial court, but just in case, he will never come to Jingshi again.
This can be done completely, Zu Dashou, Zuo Liangyu, Zheng Yiguan, etc. have done it in history, their own level is much stronger than them, and they are even more traceless to do it.
Huang Sheng was ready to set off to fight for the country, Xiong Mingyu, the secretary of the military department, Zhang Fengyi, the secretary of the household department, Gao Di and Wang Zhichen all came to discuss the matter of salary, and the main topic was how many families the Duke of Nanguo would bring to the expedition.
The salary given by the imperial court to the families of civil officials and military generals is two taels and two dollars per month for ordinary family soldiers, and one stone of rice and grain in their true colors.
Huang Sheng solemnly stated that he would not falsely report a family, now do not empty words, tomorrow the army will be pulled, today let's check the soldiers Ma Anshi salary, Huang Sheng also told several important ministers that their families are cavalry.
Xiong Ming, the secretary of the Ministry of War, met Huang Sheng, and immediately took everyone to check the soldiers and horses, thinking that it was inappropriate, and it was reasonable to give Nanguo Gong some time so that he could pull people to make up the number of military salaries.
He said: "Don't worry, how about arranging for a camp outside the city to inspect the grandfather's family in three days?" ”
Seeing that the military department is still not careful, several bigwigs are of course adults, and they echo in unison.
Huang Sheng Zhengse said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the family members of this lord are all the strongest, none of them are indiscriminate, the soldiers are fast, and the army will be drawn tomorrow, please go out of the city immediately with this lord to check the people." ”
Yes, Nanguo Gong didn't know what to do, and a few adults had to set off, hugging hundreds of riders and more than a dozen cars.
Coming to the solemn Huang family's private army camp, it can really be said that people are like dragons and horses, and several important ministers of the state were stunned, looking at the military appearance of the Huang family, looking at their equipment, and then looking at the angry horses as strong as calves, the adults were convinced.
No wonder Nanguo Gong is not afraid of building slaves, and if we have such a family, we are not afraid of building slaves!
At the beginning of the inspection of the soldiers and horses, the final number was actually a full 6,000 elite cavalry, and the three thousand private soldiers here were of course not all cavalry, and there were more than 1,000 musketeers and more than 2,000 auxiliaries who could only be regarded as mounted infantry.
In order to improve the mobility of the war, you can ride a horse, but you have to dismount to shoot in a real battle, and no one can ride a front-loading musket on a war horse to reload calmly, and the shooting will lose accuracy.
The adults were dumbfounded, no wonder the Duke of Nanguo didn't need to pull Lang to match, the number of his family members was enough to scare the Duke of Gong, and the number of Li Chengliang's family members who used to support his own troops in Liaodong may not be stronger than that of the Duke of Nanguo!
Knowing that Huang Sheng had 6,000 ironclad family members, Emperor Chongzhen had mixed feelings and worries for a while.
The emperor knew that Huang Sheng had silver, and he also knew that his enmity with Jiannu was as deep as the sea, and he knew that he would train private soldiers, but he didn't expect that there would be so much.
No wonder Huang Sheng is full of confidence in solving the siege of Jinzhou, it turns out that he has enough strength. But what happens after Jinzhou?
The emperor, who was thinking about it in front of the imperial study, muttered to himself, "Blessings and misfortunes? After the incident in Jinzhou, this person must not be used again, let him be in a safe corner! ”
Wang Chengen, who had been waiting, overheard it, and was so frightened that he didn't dare to make a little sound, for fear that the emperor would find out that he heard this.
He is a eunuch and a royal eagle dog, and he must unconditionally choose to be loyal to the royal family, of course, it is impossible to pass the news to Huang Sheng, so he naturally chooses to rot the emperor's unintentional gaffes in his stomach.
The next day, Nanguo Gong waved his army north, and the civil and military forces who came to see off the Jingshi were unknown.
The British Duke, the Chengguo Duke, and other nobles naturally have no shortage of them. Zhang Weixian knew that his son-in-law's dispatch of troops this time was not to find the marquis, but to go to the Ming Dynasty, and the son-in-law's strength of 6,000 ironclad family members had been spread in Beijing.
It can also be said that Zhang Weixian, who has led soldiers all his life, was shocked today, and the same is true of those nobles, only Wu Xiang is not surprised.
It was the first time that everyone had seen those fierce family members of the Huang family, most of whom were under the age of twenty, and they were all full of vitality.
What is particularly striking is that they are like being made in a mold, their movements are neat and uniform, and the order and prohibition can no longer describe this strong army, it is simply like a heart.
I have never seen such an army, no one knows how to train such a strong army, the nobles are impressed one by one, and everyone smacks their tongues at the civilian and military generals.
The other nobles who saw them off were all happy, only the old man was worried, and even Zhang Zhiji, who had always been heartless, couldn't be happy.
They were not worried that Huang Sheng would not succeed in going to Liaodong to relieve the siege of Jinzhou, but they were worried about what would happen to Huang Sheng, who had already made great achievements, after winning again?
It was sent to the ten-mile long pavilion, and the civil and military nobles turned around and returned to Beijing, and the British father and son refused to go back and insisted on sending another ride.
Seeing that there were all his own people and the British public family left around him, Huang Sheng smiled and said: "My father-in-law sent one trip after another, and I am afraid that if I send it again, I will go to Shanhaiguan." ”
The preoccupied British justice: "Alas! O virtuous son-in-law! It's hard for you to still laugh. Haven't you thought about what happened to Jinzhou afterwards? ”
Zhang Zhiji said: "Brother Xian, you should never let the court know that you have so many family members, don't you know that people are terrible?" ”
Huang Sheng was happy to see that his brother-in-law and father-in-law were worried about his future.
said: "I don't know what my father-in-law has to do?" In fact, no matter whether the son-in-law exposes the strength of the family or not, the result is the same, unless he is defeated and killed in Jinzhou City, as long as he wins and returns to the court, the strength of the Huang family will naturally be revealed, and it will be completely impossible to hide. ”
The British Duke thought so, and said: "Rao is so, what a dilemma!" ”
