Chapter 918: Mixed Fish and Dragons

At the same time, the thieves under the command of King Gao Yingxiang fled again and again, and did not dare to meet the officers and soldiers who were advancing westward, and also let these Gan army generals and the newly formed regiments train the generals and colonies, and they had the intention of despising the thieves and the battalions.

Because in early September, as the Musu barbarian rebels in Gannan in Longxi abandoned the west of the city one after another, the Shaanxi official army advanced triumphantly, and the situation was fully advantageous.

The troops of Dong Zhiyi and Han Yiliang of the Hanzhong official army entered Luozhou from Jiezhou without a major war;

Wang Chengen, the commander-in-chief of the Shaanxi army, also sent troops from Tianshui in Qinzhou to take the city of Gongchang without a big war;

The Shaanxi army Yang Shien's troops also pursued the rout of Cao Cao's battalion and Xiaoxi's battalion, and advanced all the way to Tongwei Fort.

In addition, the fourth town of the newly formed Guards Army was stationed in Zhuanglangshui Luocheng, and received reorganization training according to the standards of the Guards Governor's Office;

Jing Yuanbo, the chief military officer of Shanhai Town, led the cavalry of the Jiao Institute, and followed the side of Li Banghua, the minister of military aircraft of the Qincha, as a strategic support force in the rear;

The cavalry of the Wulie Battalion under the command of Cao Wenzhao, the commander of Shuofang, also after several easy pursuit battles, were stationed in Jingning City on the orders of Yuan Chonghuan to rest and replenish.

The whole situation is simply a great situation for the officials and troops in the northwest, and no one expected that at this time, the team of thieves who had been chased by the officials and soldiers before would dare to secretly play the idea of the officials and soldiers.

Just as the Jinyi Weixi Town Fusi took the opportunity of expanding the thieves' battalions after they set up their own portals, and planted a lot of details in the thieves' battalions, the Trilateral Governor's Office issued a proclamation to recruit the Northwest Yimin Township to practice bravely, which also allowed Gao Yingxiang and others to see the opportunity.

Of course, they will not miss the opportunity to insert some detailed works into the training team of the officer corps.

Therefore, in September, the various regimental training teams under the command of Mao Yujian, the deputy envoy of the trilateral regimental training, were not only mixed with good and bad, but some of them did not know how many thieves' meticulous work was mixed in.

This kind of thing existed to varying degrees in the original history, and some teams were officials and soldiers today, and tomorrow they were thieves, wearing the skin of officials and soldiers, receiving the salaries of officials and soldiers, and also giving news to thieves.

Now, the same situation is happening again.

This is also a result that is difficult to avoid by the incorporation of township soldiers and militia regiments in various localities.

With such a large population in the Ming Dynasty, it stands to reason that there is no source of soldiers, but the Chongzhen Emperor in history has no soldiers.

Later, a special levy was even levied, with more than 2 million taels of silver levied every year, specifically for the training of troops in various governors and towns.

But the group training that has been practiced is basically like this.

Now the three sides of the northwest are facing such a situation, there are good and bad among these people, and it is difficult to strictly distinguish who is good and who is bad, but if Emperor Chongzhen does not let the official army absorb these township soldiers and people, they are very likely to be absorbed by thieves and become thieves.

But if the imperial court accepts them, maybe any of the teams they are incorporated will be spies deliberately planted by the thieves.

After repeatedly reading the reports of Li Banghua and others and the secret reports of Jinyiwei, Emperor Chongzhen was very sure that there must be thieves in the regimental training team under the command of Mao Yujian, the deputy envoy of the trilateral regimental training.

Otherwise, the thieves would not be so clear about the movements of the official army, and they would not have mobilized so many men and horses in advance to set up an ambush on the road where the official army marched west to pursue the Musu barbarian army.

However, it is useless to say anything now, and the people involved in the whole matter, whether it is Zhang Jiamo, the chief military officer of Gansu Town, or Mao Yujian, the deputy envoy of the trilateral regiment, have all been defeated and died.

At the same time, the defeat of the Gan army also brought about a chain reaction, that is, the fall of Lanzhou City, and the fall of the official army in the city and the Su Wangfu.

However, despite this, the order previously issued to the trilateral governor's office ordering it to incorporate the Han regiments in the northwest border areas for armed training could not be changed overnight, let alone abandoned.

After all, although it is risky to co-opt the local Han armed forces, it is not possible not to do it.

In other words, there is no problem with this matter strategically, the problem is only how to operate it.

In order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past, what Emperor Chongzhen could do was to send an edict to Gao Shiming and Hu Yikui as soon as possible, so that the Jinyi Weixi Zhenfu Division could share the information from within the thief team with Li Banghua and the Trilateral Governor's Mansion.

In the future, we can continue to incorporate the Han Chinese contingent in the northwest frontier areas, but we must strictly control and examine the leaders and men among them.

As for how to strictly control and strictly review, that is the matter of Jinyiwei and the new deputy envoy of the regimental training of the Trilateral Governor's Palace.

After Emperor Chongzhen thought of this, one after another wills were naturally transmitted to the northwest by Jinyiwei and Dongchang's men and horses in mid-October.

Emperor Chongzhen, the Minister of Military Aircraft, and the Military Aircraft Department and the Ministry of War did not announce the news of the defeat of the Gan army, the fall of Lanzhou, and the destruction of the palace of the clan vassal king Su Wangfu at the hands of thieves, but by the middle of October, these news still spread, just like boulders falling into the water of the imperial court, which caused an uproar in the court of the Beijing Division.

Those who knew more about Emperor Chongzhen's mind naturally continued to remain silent.

And those officials who did not understand Emperor Chongzhen's mind wrote a book to impeach Li Banghua and Yuan Chonghuan, especially the voice of demanding the removal of Yuan Chonghuan was unprecedentedly high.

And these people, if Emperor Chongzhen carefully compares them, he will find that it was the same officials who wrote to the emperor again and again, asking the court to reinstate Yuan Chonghuan and asking the emperor to reuse Yuan Chonghuan.

It's just that the Qingliu officials who led the book at the beginning, such as Qian Longxi, Liu Hongxun, Zhang Shenyan and others, are no longer above the court.

Therefore, although there are many people who have written to request the recall this time, the impact between the government and the opposition is not so great.

However, these things are in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen now, but he immediately knows a little bit, this Yuan Chonghuan is afraid that he can only be a lonely minister in the future.

Because now, whether it is his huge fame before, or the many fans and mass base he had before, it no longer exists.

Even Li Banghua, the Minister of Military Aircraft, has now suffered a heavy setback in his reputation as a good soldier with this new change in the northwest.

Regarding the situation where everyone in the court shouted at Yuan Chonghuan and shouted to kill, Emperor Chongzhen remained silent again.

For the current Emperor Chongzhen, you can continue to impeach whoever you want, but after the recital of your impeachment arrives in Ouchi, I will accept it.

At most, at some point, maybe when Yuan Chonghuan returns to the court, it will be enough to send all these twists and turns to Yuan Chonghuan himself to see.

For Emperor Chongzhen, if most of the people in the government and the opposition say good things about someone in unison, then this person must not be used in the court.

Because if such a person is used in the court, he will quickly become the leader of those Qingliu civil officials in the court, thus clashing with the imperial power and restraining himself.

This kind of ruling technique may be unfamiliar to Emperor Chongzhen at first, but after more than three years of tempering, it is now becoming more and more handy.

For the current Emperor Chongzhen, his prestige among the government and the opposition is no longer as important to him as it was when the foundation was unstable at the beginning of his accession to the throne.

In the Forbidden City, there are not only Tiance Guards and Yulin Guards who are loyal to themselves, but also the Imperial Attendant Military Attache Office and the Internal Affairs Office that are more loyal to themselves.

In the inner and outer cities of the Beijing Division, in addition to the most well-equipped Shenji Battalion, which has always been loyal to the royal family, there are now the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division that are firmly controlled by their cousin Liu Wenbing and Wu Zhuangyuan Yan Yingyuan.

In addition, there are the first town of the Guards stationed in Tongzhou, the second town of the Guards stationed in Baoding, and the third town of the Guards stationed along the Juyong Pass.

In particular, after the restructuring and reorganization, the new five armies of the border army, the guard, the internal guard, the navy and the reserve have all been governors.

Not to mention that between the government and the opposition, there are also Gong Yonggu, the commander of the concubine, who is under the control of the Jinyi Guard, and the Dongchang under the control of the eunuch Fang Zhenghua, who is loyal to him, are staring at it openly and secretly.

With these powers, today's Emperor Chongzhen is simply going to be an absurd emperor like Emperor Zhengde, and no one can stop him in the current Ming Dynasty.
