Chen Xinjia is not a vegetarian, he has been preparing for such a long time, since he has done it, he must give full play to his ability, after all, the importance of Liaodong is self-evident, if he can't control the situation in Liaodong well, and blindly rely on the support of the emperor and the cabinet, he will also be looked down upon by the officials and soldiers of Liaodong.

After Qian Qianyi took office, Xu Eryi left Liaodong, Chen Xinjia convened the officials of the Governor's Mansion and the Governor's Yamen, as well as the officers above the general military officer of Liaodong, and held a meeting, at this meeting, he announced that Qian Qianyi was responsible for the people's livelihood in Liaodong, including the expenditure of the army's food and salary, Liaodong land jurisdiction and many other aspects, and announced that Hong Chengchou was directly responsible for the deployment of the Jiangning battalion.

This decision caused a small fluctuation for a while, Hong Chengchou, as the secretary of the military department, the governor of Tongzhi, and the commander of the Jiangning battalion, was actually responsible for the deployment of the situation in the entire Liaodong, and actually had jurisdiction over the Jiangning battalion, the border army, and the officers and men of the Yulin battalion, but Chen Xinjia's adjustment indicated that Hong Chengchou could only be responsible for the affairs of the Jiangning battalion, highlighting Hong Chengchou's official position as the commander of the Jiangning battalion.

According to the arrangement made by Su Tiancheng when he left Liaodong, Qin Sande was not only the supervisor of the Jiangning battalion, but also directly responsible for supervising the affairs of the border army and the Yulin battalion, and Chen Xinjia acquiesced to such an arrangement.

The officials and officers of Liaodong all understand the meaning of this, which announces that Chen Xinjia has begun to make decisive moves and grasp the overall situation in Liaodong. Chen Xinjia was able to make such a decision directly and send Xu Eryi back to the capital. It shows that the emperor and the imperial court support Chen Xinjia, and it shows that the affairs of Liaodong are under the direct jurisdiction of Chen Xinjia from now on.

Chen Xinjia took over and began to take charge of the border army and the Yulin battalion, but did not immediately start to govern the Jiangning battalion, on the surface, it seemed that he respected Su Tiancheng and Hong Chengchou and others. In fact, it is so that Su Tiancheng and Hong Chengchou have no room for argumentation, this handmade is very beautiful, in everyone's opinion, it is a matter of time before Chen Xinjia governs the Jiangning battalion soldiers in Liaodong.

Chen Xinjia's position in Liaodong is not particularly solid, and he wants to establish absolute prestige among the troops. Then it is necessary to lead the troops to win the battle, so that they can win the sincere admiration and support of the soldiers.

In this regard, Chen Xinjia cannot be compared with Su Tiancheng.

In the minds of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, Su Tiancheng is the absolute commander, no one can shake Su Tiancheng's status, Hong Chengchou can't, relatively speaking, in the hearts of the border army and the sergeants of the Yulin battalion. It is a kind of reverence for Su Tiancheng, not a support in the real sense. Su Tiancheng's time in Liaodong is not very long, it can be said that he is still in the process of running-in, and Su Tiancheng has ruthlessly rectified the border army, and the benefits of this rectification need time to be slowly realized.

Chen Xinjia took advantage of such an opportunity, and Su Tiancheng rectified the border army. After Chen Xinjia came to Liaodong, Chen Xinjia was very satisfied with the quality of the Liaodong army, and ordered and forbidden, obeying the command. Needless to say, it is needless to say that such an army fights a war, and its morale must be high, so he does not need to worry about the construction of the army.

However, Su Tiancheng is not a fairy, in the construction of the Liaodong army, there are also deficiencies, the biggest problem is the problem of military salaries, the salaries of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion are generally higher than those of the border army, after Su Tiancheng came to Liaodong, he was determined to rectify the border army, a large number of sergeants, and vigorously develop agriculture, that is, to think of at the right time, to increase the military salaries of the border soldiers, but at every turn, it is more than 100,000 people, want to increase the military salary, but it is not a matter of lip service, but in the process of operation, Dengzhou and Laizhou have accidents, and changes have followedUnder such circumstances, Su Tiancheng did not have time to raise the military salaries of the border army.

Su Tian became an increase in the salary of the sergeant of the border army, and all the efforts he made were also benefited by Chen Xinjia.

After the autumn harvest, the Governor's Mansion harvested a lot of taxes, including a part of the grain paid by farmers, and the imperial court did not collect any taxes in Liaodong, so the grain tax and commercial tax were directly collected by the Governor's Office, and this large amount of grain and salary was directly allocated by Chen Xinjia, plus the imperial court did not reduce the military salary in Liaodong, it can be said that Chen Xinjia had grain and silver in his hands.

Liaodong has such a foundation, a lot of merchants, shuttle between the Ming Dynasty and Houjin, risking their lives to trade, this trade belongs to the profiteering industry, these merchants, handed over a large amount of silver to the governor's office, seeking protection, and are also allowed to carry out commercial transactions, this is a fixed source, at the same time, there are also merchants in Jinzhou, Ningyuan City, paid taxes, Su Tiancheng to Liaodong's commercial taxes, carried out reforms, this is also a lot of income, agricultural taxes from scratch, also at the disposal of the governor's office, With such a foundation, Chen Xinjia certainly made some moves.

In October, news came out from Liaodong, Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi made a decision to increase the salaries of the border army and the soldiers of the Yulin battalion, and the implementation began in January of the 14th year of Chongzhen.

This decision caused huge waves, and within a short period of time, the border army and the officers and men of the Yulin battalion expressed their support for Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi.

After Chen Xinjia took charge of Liaodong, the border army has fluctuated, their military salary is different from that of the Jiangning battalion soldiers, and the border army can accept it in a short period of time, after all, the courage of the Jiangning battalion, they have seen it with their own eyes, they have exterminated the Liukou, recovered the Dalinghe City, and the Jin Tartars dare not be arrogant after fighting, such military exploits, the border army does not dare to imagine at all, the treatment of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion should be higher in terms of military merits, but with Su Tiancheng leaving Liaodong, many border troops began to complain in private, and everything for Lu is to serve in Liaodong, The military salary received is different, which is too unfair, and there have been officers of the border army, who directly reflected such a problem to Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi, Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi are both doing work, asking the border army to be stable, and the governor yamen will find a way to solve it.

Some people also look at it, such a problem is very tricky, if it is not done well, there will be an unstable situation in Liaodong, and in today's situation, Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi are not careful, it may cause fluctuations in Liaodong, resulting in an unfavorable situation, such a problem will be troubled in the imperial court, and Su Tiancheng may also suffer, for example, Tang Haitai, who is not long in Liaodong, is very concerned about this problem, and he also exchanged views with some officers in private.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi made such a decision, and in the shortest possible time, they calmed down such fluctuations, and received the support of the border army and the soldiers of the Yulin battalion, which greatly stabilized their position in Liaodong.

Tang Haitai admired it very much, from the measures taken by Chen Xinjia, he felt that he had learned a lot of things, after all, in the past few years in the capital, Tang Shiji taught by word and deed, Tang Haitai still has some progress, in terms of figuring out people's hearts, there are some understandings, in Tang Haitai's view, Chen Xinjia came to Liaodong and served as the governor of Liaodong, it is impossible to do things under Su Tiancheng's reputation, and all the credit is still Su Tiancheng's, Chen Xinjia must have his own highlights.

Tang Haitai will not be so kind, after coming to Liaodong, he is also temporarily relieved, anyway, it is impossible to leave Liaodong in a short period of time, just stay honest, what should you do, try your best to do it, Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi are very good to him, this is okay, can mix some qualifications in Liaodong, why not, at the same time, he also observed that Chen Xinjia admired Su Tiancheng on the surface, but in fact it was not the case, this was reflected in doing things on weekdays, ecstatic Tang Haitai, Thinking that at the right time, slandering Su Tiancheng in front of Chen Xinjia would at least cause some contradictions between Chen Xinjia and Su Tiancheng, and he would be able to do such a thing.

Tang Haitai had long noticed the difference in salaries between the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion and the border army, and he heard such a reaction when he was supervising the work.

originally thought that Chen Xinjia would complain to the imperial court, but he didn't expect that Chen Xinjia would solve this problem by raising the salaries of the soldiers of the border army and the Yulin battalion.

Through such measures, Chen Xinjia gained support, at least the border army and the sergeants of the Yulin battalion were supported and supported, which also knocked the Jiangning battalion from the side, making Hong Chengchou not taste, and the greater benefit was that he slowly eliminated Su Tiancheng's influence in Liaodong, reduced Su Tiancheng's influence, and improved his prestige.

This is the method of killing people without seeing blood, which makes Su Tiancheng have a hard time, compared to those frontal collisions, this method has a much better effect, there will be no direct conflict, but it warns the opponent.

Understanding these truths, Tang Haitai felt his uncle's painstaking efforts, and finally felt that coming to Liaodong was not necessarily a bad thing.

Su Tiancheng from Dengzhou, after receiving this information, looked at the information in his hand, and did not speak for a long time, he finally understood that Chen Xinjia has the ability, and has a strong ability, has a clear mind to do things, and is relaxed, and can find a breakthrough in the shortest possible time and quickly grasp the situation.

It would have been a good thing for such an official to go to Liaodong, as long as he could comprehend the general situation in Liaodong and make the right choice, but unfortunately Su Tiancheng knew that Chen Xinjia went to Liaodong, and it was impossible to settle down, in this case, the shrewd and capable Chen Xinjia went to Liaodong, it would be a disaster.
