Chapter 348: It is imperative to raise troops to crusade against Li Jing

Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty has now received two major events about the country in one day, but he doesn't know whether to be happy or worried. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The Tartar soldiers entered the Kou at the end of May, ravaged the interior of Xuanda, intercepted the local military and civilians, the local people were poisoned, and broke through the victory fort and many other places, but recently they returned to the north in a hurry, and Shen Qi, the governor of Xuanfu, went to the city and looked, saw that the Tartar soldiers were defeated, and returned to the north in embarrassment, and then there seemed to be a large army chasing after them.

He rode 300 out of the city to fight, intercepted and killed the Tartar rear team, beheaded the fifth level, captured two Nikans, and got the Tartar soldiers in Datong Yingzhou, Shuozhou was defeated in a generation, with a loss of about 10,000 people, so he retreated in a hurry, this big victory, unprecedented, so Shen Qi heard about it on the starry night, in order to celebrate the National Day.

But there are also worries, that is, where did this army that can defeat the Tartars come from!

"I'm afraid the saint is going to be very worried, Li Jing is already in a big position."

Wen Tiren, who has become the first assistant, has just served as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and used the Sun Yuanhua case to squeeze out Xu Guangqi, who Zhou Tingru tried to woo, and took advantage of the unfavorable gap of Liu Yulie's supervisor in Shandong to take the opportunity to launch the wings of the DPRK and the central government to impeach Zhou Tingru in an attempt to remove him from office.

Moreover, after Xiong Ming, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was vacant, the affairs of the Ministry of War have been temporarily replaced by Zhou Tingru, and the war situation in Henan and Shandong was unfavorable, which made Zhou Tingru lose points in front of the emperor, and what use could he be for the first assistant who could not contribute to the country?

I have to come to summon today, as soon as I heard this news, Wen Tiren didn't dare to be silent, because from the performance of Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, Li Jing has actually supported the army and respected himself, and ignored the chaos in Shanxi, and sat back and watched the officials and soldiers being driven to Henan by the rogues, and continuously lost the city.

"Long live my emperor, this is a blessing for the country, and it should be congratulated."

Shao Zhan Shi Wen Zhen Meng didn't know the inside story. But Emperor Chongzhen summoned him to deal with it, and Xu Yi entered the cabinet to take over Xu Guangqi's position, so he spoke out to show his existence, but the horse's fart was slapped on the horse's leg. aroused Zhu Youzhen's displeasure, if he could really celebrate, he would have ordered the promotion of meritorious personnel to Beijing for the audience.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Li Jing is this person. If he refuses to enter Beijing, his heart can be punished, and he immediately ordered the division to investigate and deal with the crime. ”

Zhou Tingru is still trying to turn the tables at this moment, that is, as long as he goes to Li Jing and gets the 100,000 elite soldiers in his hands, no matter Henan and Shandong, he can be calmed down in the starry night, and his position as the first assistant can be regarded as a stable position.

Shoufu said cautiously. Then Li Jing is a courtier of the court, and he has no merit, so can An easily ask for guilt? ”

Even if he went to the errand of the Ministry of Rites, Xu Guangqi was still a scholar of Dongge University, not to mention his student Sun Yuanhua, who was in Li Jing's army at the moment, and had always exchanged letters, could he not know Li Jing's control of the army? Once it is not good, the imperial court will have to sit on wax, and the society will be unstable.

"This rebellious minister and thief too. Can Ann call him arrogant? ”

Wen Tiren responded unhappily, of course he knew what kind of person Li Jing was, but at this moment, he had to follow the emperor's intentions. Instead of muddy, pretend to be stupid.

"Ladies and gentlemen, don't argue, and come up with the charter, and deal with it quickly, besides. Why hasn't the transcript of Datong Mansion been delivered yet? ”

It is strange to say that the battlefield took place in Datong Town, but the civil and military officials in this place did not have the slightest movement, which is not reasonable.

"Your Majesty, the book of Datong Town, may have cut off the passage due to the raging Tartars, and it cannot be delivered for a while, please let Your Majesty know."

Zhang Tinggong, the governor of Datong, also has connections in the court, and He Wusu, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, said softly that he is also a cabinet minister reserve of Emperor Chongzhen, so he is also qualified to participate in the small-scale court.

But looking at all the people present, most of them were born in Wenchen, and no one from the military department and the governor's mansion of the five armies in charge was present, not to mention a group of nobles in the Beijing camp, most of them were not summoned at this moment, it can be seen that Emperor Chongzhen does not want to go to the point of meeting each other at this moment, perhaps, the Ming court has no confidence to move troops at this moment,

But I believe that soon, Emperor Chongzhen will be able to directly raise troops to fight.

At the same time, the send-off team from Datong to Xuanfu to Jingshi also entered the city directly from Xizhimen, which had 300 guards and more than 1,000 family servants, and suddenly attracted the peeps of the soldiers and civilians in the city.

Where the Ming Dynasty has always been a vassal king without an edict can not leave the fiefdom, let alone enter Beijing, at this time a banner plaque of the four princes opened the way, is there a change in the dynasty, the need for the vassal king to enter Beijing?

For a time, rumors spread in the city, and when the team arrived at Fuchengmen, after handing over the waist card task, and then walked to Xi'an Gate by the Beijing camp soldiers and horses, the entire Beijing division was a sensation, whether it was the minister of civil and military affairs, or ordinary people, they all crowded to check the strange things that have never happened in the 200 years of this dynasty.

That is, the four fiefdom kings at one time, like lost dogs, all ran to Beijing, isn't it a joke?

In the past few months, there have been many rumors among the people, the actual situation in the northwest has been eroded, and there are rebellious ministers and thieves occupying the northwest, ready to attack Beijing at any time, but such words, as soon as the civilians hear it, they should also listen to a pleasure, after all, their trilateral governor Zhang Fengyi, but he has won several battles in succession and recovered many cities.

But now that I look at it, my heart suddenly bursts, this is nine times out of ten, I'm afraid it's true, otherwise why would these princes all flee to the palace?

"What? Say it again! ”

After Emperor Chongzhen heard the news, he was immediately furious, when did the princes of the Ming Dynasty be driven out of the fiefdom like this?

What's more, there are still four in a row, how should he, a self-proclaimed saint, deal with himself?

"It's reversed~ It's reversed! This rebel minister and thief, when he is punished, when he is punished, he is the elite of the Beijing camp, goes west to quell the rebellion, and then sends out the elite soldiers, and quickly quells the rebellion~! ”

……

Not to mention how the Jingshi reacted, anyway, the number of fast horses from the Jingshi to Xuanfu has increased a lot in the past two days, but Shen Qi is worried to death, without him, Xuanfu has no soldiers, if there are really elite soldiers, as for letting Huang Taiji enter Kou Wanquanwei?

But the strict order of the imperial court, he had to respect, otherwise it would be the end of immediate dismissal.

"Quickly send someone to invite Lord Yang and Bingbei Dao Ma Shi Yingma to come and discuss."

Coincidentally, in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province that day, Ma Shiying, who was temporarily sent by Zhang Zongheng to be controlled by Yangqu Left Guard, slapped his ass and left after the battle, and still served as his deputy envoy of Yanghe Bingbeidao.

If you want to say that Ma Shiying is not a bad person, otherwise he will not be able to sit as the premier cabinet minister of Nanming in the future, but now, he is just like that, he is tall among the short, in the realm of Xuanfu, if you want to talk about fighting, you have to look at him!

At least this time he entered the Kou, Ma Shiying was not at fault, and he kept it in an orderly manner, but what Shen Qi didn't expect was that if there was no Li Jing in the Tartars this time, then his position as the governor of Xuanfu would be completed, and it was this Master Ma Shiying who took his place.

"What did Lord Futai do to recruit me?"

Ma Shiying is commanding the soldiers and horses under his command to regain lost ground in the past two days, and he has also mixed up some credit, but the front line is too dangerous after all, even if the Tartars are defeated in Yingzhou, but the remaining soldiers and horses are enough to wreak havoc on the entire Xuanfu, no, he is guarding in Xuanfu Town and commanding the front line remotely.

"This is the will of the imperial court, you can take a look."

Shen Qi didn't have too much politeness with him, after all, the stall that burned his eyebrows was too busy to take care of himself, where did he still have the heart to talk to him, he only gave him his will directly, and he didn't say much.

Ma Shiying originally thought that the court's reward would have arrived, and he was immediately happy, but when he took it in his hand and looked at it, he was stunned, and when he saw it, he was unstable and directly dropped the edict on the ground, and his face was even more frightened.

The words in his mouth were indistinct, "This, this~ Doesn't this force me to wait to die?" ”

In Taiyuan, he had learned Li Jing's power, when he only had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, he dared to fight against the imperial court, and now he has 100,000 heavy soldiers, the momentum of secession has been completed, and then let himself lead less than 2,000 soldiers and horses to touch, isn't that self-defeating?

Don't think that these local officials are stupid, what Li Jing wants to do, they all know that the problem can't be beaten at hand, so they pretend to be deaf and dumb, and strive to mix in other places as soon as possible to become officials, this powder keg, as long as it doesn't explode during his tenure, but he didn't expect that the good and bad spirits actually made the court angry and let them send troops to fight, isn't this going to kill people.

So much so that even Ma Shiying said something that forced people to die,

Shen Qiquan didn't hear it, if he said this in normal times, it was okay to ask him directly, which was a great disrespect to the imperial court.

But now, what more can he say? Any commander and soldier of the Xuanfu came over, and that's it, who dared to touch Li Jing's tiger whiskers? Isn't this a matter of obviousness, looking for death?

But he didn't dare to disobey the will of the imperial court, so he directly put on a straight face and frightened, "Master Ma, this is a strict order of the imperial court, Ben Fu should obey it, you immediately lead the troops south to Datong, converge with Gao Xun, the chief soldier of Datong, and crusade against the rebels. ”

"Lord Futai, but the soldiers under my command are not well prepared, the soldiers are insufficient, and the silver allocated is also lacking, and the subordinate officials are afraid that the soldiers and horses will be dispersed before they arrive."

Ma Shiying is not stupid, it is better to let him die, it is better to resign, if Shen Qi insists on persecuting him, he can only do this.

"Money and food are fearless, and the businessmen outside the mouth are sympathetic to the court and are willing to use 50,000 silver ****, how? Even if the southward movement is delayed, there will naturally be a will from the imperial court. (To be continued.) )
