Chapter 481: Hong Chengchou Appointed Governor of Shaanxi!

In the end, Zhu Zilong still planned his ideas and various plans to the idea of vigorously rescuing the victims. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"As the saying goes, sharpening knives is not wrong for woodcutters, and if you don't have time, you have to squeeze out time. First solve the trouble of building slaves and extorting targets in the north, and then calmly turn around and completely exterminate the thieves. ā€

"Civil strife and natural disasters first let the country's side hold on, gritting teeth. When there is some time, it will be possible to promote the cultivation of red and potatoes in large quantities in the north. An acre of grain field can only harvest more than 300 catties of wheat a year, but an acre of dry land, or even an acre of mountainous land, can easily harvest two or three thousand catties of sweet potatoes a year. ā€

"In addition, there are potatoes and corn, which are drought-resistant and high-yield grains, and it is easy to harvest thousands of catties of grain per acre, as long as there are two or three years. The Ming Dynasty didn't even have to travel thousands of miles to transport grain from the south of the Yangtze River to Shaanxi, and only half of the grain from Shanxi and Beizhili could easily appease the remaining hungry people in Shaanxi. Completely eliminate the hidden danger of hunger riots! ā€

Zhu Zilong muttered to himself, as if he had made up his mind about something.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zilongjue, according to the current situation, the candidates for the two positions of trilateral governor and governor of Shaanxi are very important.

It is not possible to choose a random person to take office, and several conditions must be met.

First, they cannot be current close relatives and new officials, because according to the current situation. No matter who is in power, their counterinsurgency and anti-thief action is doomed to fail, and at most they can only break up the anti-thieves. It is also destined to become the target of the accusations of the official Yushi Khan!

Second, the ability should not be too bad, at least it must be able to fight, be able to organize the local people to train the new army, and exterminate the traitors.

Thinking about it, Zhu Zilong thought of a person.

Hong Chengchou!

Hong Chengchou (―), the word Yanyan, the number Hengjiu, is a native of Nan'anyingdu, Quanzhou, Fujian.

In the forty-fourth year of Wanli (1616), he was a Jinshi, and now he is tired of being a political envoy to Shaanxi to participate in politics.

In the original unchanged history, he eventually became a famous traitor. Well, speaking of which. In fact, in ancient China, there was no word for traitor.

The appearance of the word traitor was at the turn of the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Some of the officials from the Ming Dynasty surrendered to the Manchu regime for various reasons. Later people called this part of the people traitors.

There are four types of traitors in the late Ming Dynasty:

The first type is the active refuge type. The representative figures are Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming. The second type is forced to be helpless. The representative figure is Zu Dashou!

The third type, extremely special, is represented by Wu Sangui.

The last one is to want to set up a memorial arch and want to be a **** type. The representative figure is Hong Chengchou!

Although in the history of the current changes, this product may not have the opportunity to become a traitor, but because of his character, he can cherish himself for the sake of unclean clothes, and he will eventually become a traitor.

This kind of person has the ability but will not make people look up too much, just like for a time-traveler who knows history.

Because of the interest relationship with the eunuch group, they stand relatively close.

At this moment, Zhu Zilong's body in the Ming Dynasty, in addition to being famous abroad, can lead troops to fight, but also has won the title of a copycat eunuch!

It's a copycat eunuch party, so naturally Zhu Zilong has to stand on the opposite side of the Donglin Party whether he wants it or not.

Unfortunately, Hong Chengchou, a somewhat unpleasant figure, is a cadre in the Donglin Party.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zilong felt that the candidate for the governor of Shaanxi was none other than Hong Chengchou.

Take this opportunity to let him go to Shaanxi to suffer a little! If you have the ability, as long as you don't change your mind, you will continue to use it, and if you don't have the ability, you will be sent home.

So whew, this moment.

The corners of Zhu Zilong's mouth crooked and laughed: "Comrade Hong traitor, don't say that I won't give you a chance, the difficulty of suppressing the peasant uprising in Shaanxi is much smaller than in the original history." ā€

"At the very least, you don't have to worry about that Chongzhen, who is more neat at killing ministers than chickens, pulling you back. Brother has the heart to play with you, but he knows some of the truth that the emperor is not a hungry soldier, and there is also a way to get money and food for the front line. Your military salary, food and grass are still guaranteed, and whether you can show it or not depends on your own ability. ā€

The next day.

Zhu Zilong's body was sent 800 miles in a hurry, and he wrote to the Beijing Division, and pulled a group of officials from Shandong to sign it.

recommended Sun Ge Lao to serve as the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, and at the same time, with the reputation of being virtuous and not avoiding hatred, recommended Hong Chengchou to serve as the governor of Shaanxi.

Sun Chengzong, as a veteran of the Three Dynasties, the emperor of the current dynasty, the former secretary of the military department, the envoy of Liaodong Economic Strategy and the governor of Liaodong. Zhu Zilong recommended him to come back as an official, and the governor of Ganshan, the military, political and civil affairs, it is impossible for anyone in the Manchu Dynasty to have an opinion.

Even Donglin Party officials rarely stood on the same front as Zhu Zilong and supported this recommendation.

Because, Sun Chengzong can be regarded as one of the elders of the Donglin Party. The Donglin Party members who like to form gangs, of course, hope that their party will have high power in the court and in the local area!

However, Zhu Zilong and Shandong officials recommended Hong Chengchou to be the governor of Shaanxi, but they ran into big trouble, not because the civil and military officials did not want to sell face.

The key is that Hong Chengchou, the two Xicheng Chengcheng, announced that the political left senator was the fifth grade, and he jumped four or five levels in a row to serve as the governor of Shaanxi, which is still very rare in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

What's even more troublesome is that the position of the governor of Shaanxi is too sensitive, and everyone knows that this governor of Shaanxi is not going to Shaanxi to collect taxes and break lawsuits, but to abolish and quell the rebellion.

In later generations, Hong Chengchou made history prove that he was a good civilian official, and he was also capable of leading the army.

But now, no one knows.

Let Hong Chengchou, who has never been on the battlefield and has no military experience, take the position, which everyone feels risky. So there is a lot of discussion among the officials!

The first to stand up and raise objections was the Ministry of Shangshu, who cautiously walked through the soul, opened the clone of Emperor Zhu Zilong of the early dynasty, and said: "Your Majesty, Hong Chengchou also knows this person. Wanli forty-four Bingchen Kejinshi, successively served as the director of the Jiangxi Qing Officials Department of the Criminal Department, Lang Zhong and Xijiang to learn all things, etc., and the work is quite capable, and the official reputation is also good. ā€

"Such an official, if he is promoted to the feudal territory in peacetime, it is not without discussion. However, the current situation in Shaanxi is a little different, and Hong Chengchou has never served in the military department, let alone on the battlefield and led the army, so he dared to serve as the governor of Shaanxi. Is it too risky? ā€

As soon as this remark came out, many officials immediately agreed.

"The minister seconded the proposal."

"The minister also seconded the proposal."

"The minister also seconded it."

Emperor Zhu Zilong, who was sitting on the dragon chair, really didn't expect that so many people would oppose Hong Chengchou as the governor of Shaanxi.

When I thought about it, I was not angry.

I know that these people are not all out of malice, but only limited to insight and historical limitations.

So, the next second.

He looked at the obedient Huang Liji and the others, and asked, "Huang Aiqing, what do you think of so many people opposing Hong Chengchou's appointment as the governor of Shaanxi?" ā€

Under the hint of Zhu Zilong's eyes, Huang Li understood it very much.

stood up and said: "Back to the emperor, when the minister recommended the Dragon Marquis of the Four Seas, there were no fewer people who opposed it than now. But the current situation in Shandong is obvious to all. For Hong Chengchou as the governor of Shaanxi, the minister believes that it is not just superficial. Ministers agree! ā€

As soon as Huang Liji said this, the pro-imperial ministers arranged in the cabinet also came out to express their views:

"Whether Hong Chengchou is qualified to govern Shaanxi or not is out of the will of heaven. From Weichen's point of view, he also has a lot of research on the art of war and military books. With this person to assist Sun Ge Lao in exterminating the thieves, he is not a good candidate. ā€

Well, here's a subtext for reminding everyone.

Hong Chengchou went to cross the gold, mainly to help Sun Chengzong.

As a result, Huang Liji and the minister's cronies came out one after another to express their support.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhu Zilong waved his hand to characterize the matter.

"That's all, well, don't discuss this matter anymore, Cheng'en, you will immediately draft a decree to let Hong Chengchou serve as the governor of Shaanxi, and assist the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu to quell the thieves in Shaanxi."

"The slave obeys." Wang Chengen hurriedly agreed.
