At the end of October, Su Tiancheng returned to Ningyuan.

The border pass has always been very peaceful, nothing happened, Houjin was completely quiet, did not make any offensive moves, Jiangning battalion and border army, also in strict accordance with Su Tiancheng's requirements, did not attack, a few months have passed, the situation from Dalinghe City to Shanhaiguan has slowly changed, a lot of land has been reclaimed, the Han people and military tun households who work here slowly began to get used to it, their lives are still hard, but their future is full of hope.

The situation in the steppe has also been stabilized for the time being, but changes are quietly happening, and there are more Mongolian tribes who are courting the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe, and the interests of some tribes are closely linked to the interests of the two tribes, and the dominance of the Houjin tribes in the Mongolian tribes is slowly being weakened, and the degree of this weakening will not be reflected for a while, but after a real large-scale war, it will soon be reflected.

Dai Shan went to Mongolia, did not do anything good, Dai Shan loves money, after arriving in Mongolia, he accepted a lot of property, even Huang Taiji knows the Tao, thinking that Dai Shan went to Mongolia to collect money, but such a thing, Huang Taiji will not look at it, as long as Dai Shan has no dissent, everything is easy to say.

As everyone knows, the behavior of Dai Shan has formed a very bad influence in Mongolia, and some supporters of the Houjin hardcore are difficult to justify themselves, look at the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe, and the Ming Dynasty has dealt with these years, there has never been a Jiangning battalion soldiers blackmail, in the mutual market transactions, the same is protected, there are Ming profiteers, Jiangning Camp is the same severe punishment, never protect the short, this is the fair and fair approach. Because of Dai Shan's behavior, Su Tiancheng's fame in Mongolia is getting bigger and bigger. Many tribal leaders know that Su Tiancheng is the soul of the Jiangning battalion, and he is strict with the sergeants, and the Jiangning battalion has strict military discipline and is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and Su Tiancheng leads the Jiangning battalion. After defeating the Xibe and Daurian tribes, instead of killing or plundering property, they started a mutual exchange with the two tribes.

The rapid rise of the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe is the result of Su Tiancheng's support.

In this process, because of their own strength, the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe want to expand their territory and conquer the steppe tribes. was ruthlessly denied by Su Tiancheng, and the other tribes of the grassland knew that if Su Tiancheng agreed, the grassland would definitely set off a bloody storm, and the two powerful tribes would definitely conquer countless tribes in the grassland.

These are all in Su Tiancheng's planning.

"My lord has been in Dengzhou and Laizhou for so long, and Xia Guan really misses it."

"Lao Qu, why do you have a little daughter mentality. By the way, the border has been in the past for a while. Is there anything unusual? ”

"There is no special action, but some generals of the border army seem to be unconvinced, and they always complain behind their backs, probably because the border army has been cut too much, and there are not many sergeants left. The interests of these officers were affected. ”

"Oh, then tell me what Wu Sangui is and what he says."

Qu Qingze was a little surprised, looking at Su Tiancheng, it was unimaginable. In fact, the situation he detected, the problem really appeared in Wu Sangui's body, the place where there was the most resentment was Shanhaiguan, in comparison, Zu Dashou, Zu Dale, Zu Dabi and others, were much better, and accepted them calmly, especially Zu Dale, who was a straight-tempered person, got along well with He Renlong, and had already revealed his thoughts, thinking that he could enter the Jiangning camp, even if it was a hundred or a thousand households.

"My lord, pay attention, General Wu is really a little resentful, maybe his own interests have been affected, Shanhaiguan shows the greatest resentment, I often hear private discussions, but these discussions are within the scope of control, and there will be no problems."

"Do you really think so, a thousand-mile causeway, destroyed in an anthill, if there is something wrong, always have to find a way to solve it, let the border army of Shanhaiguan complain, after a long time, the resentment has accumulated too much, and it is going to explode."

"My lord, the subordinate officer thinks that it will not be for the time being, although there are a lot of complaints, but these complaints are all from the officer, and the sergeant has no opinion, so the subordinate officer thinks that the general situation is stable and nothing will happen."

"Then tell me, if there is such a situation, how should we deal with it, we can't watch it spread, Zu Dashou and others, the current mood is stable, but you have to be clear that the relationship between Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui is not ordinary, in case of conflict, the border will be dangerous."

"This, my lord, Xia Guan really hasn't thought about it."

"Then you want to see what you can do to solve the problem."

Qu Qingze lowered his head and thought for a few minutes.

"My lord, the lower officials think that the best way is to disperse the garrison of Shanhaiguan, and now the border troops stationed in Shanhaiguan are all under the command of General Wu, and the sergeants stationed in Ningyuan, Jinzhou and Dalinghe City have all changed, or they have adjusted their defenses, or they have adjusted their officers, so their emotions are stable, and the border troops in Shanhaiguan have not been adjusted, and they are prone to problems when they get together for a long time."

"That's a good idea, so tell me how to adjust it."

"The lower officials thought that some of the Shanhaiguan soldiers who were transferred to Dalinghe City, Jinzhou and Ningyuan, and some of the Jiangning Battalion soldiers who were transferred to Shanhaiguan could slowly resolve these grievances."

"What do you think should be done about those recalcitrant officers?"

"If it really doesn't work, then kill some and make an example of the monkeys, the lower officials believe that they will see the situation clearly."

"Hehe, that's right, capture the thief and capture the king first, you should be clear about this truth, since the spearhead is on Wu Sangui's body, that is, find Wu Sangui first, I will handle this matter, you inform Wu Sangui, come to the governor's mansion immediately."

Maybe it's too tired, or it's too worried, Su Tiancheng has lost a lot of weight, seeing Su Tiancheng's appearance, Chunping shed tears in distress, Su Mingyue hasn't seen his father for a long time, after seeing Su Tiancheng, he also cried, after coming to Ningyuan, because he was always by Su Tiancheng's side, Su Mingyue was still very happy, I didn't expect Su Tiancheng to still leave for such a long time, the child couldn't see his father, plus Ningyuan's conditions, it was impossible to compare with the capital, and he must be uncomfortable in his heart.

Su Tiancheng hugged Su Mingyue, leaning on Chunping by his side, both of them were crying, Su Tiancheng had no choice but to comfort, Su Mingyue was a child, his father hugged him, and he was happy soon, but Chunping was different, he felt sad, although he didn't cry anymore, but the tears kept falling.

Seeing this scene, Su Tiancheng strengthened his confidence, he must be strong, he is not alone, there are too many people around him, and these people need his protection.

A day later, Wu Sangui came to Ningyuan.

In the wing room of the Governor's Mansion, Su Tiancheng and Wu Sangui started a key conversation, Su Tiancheng was very direct, he knew Wu Sangui's character and temper, in the face of such a person, you don't have anything polite.

"General Wu, how is the situation in Shanhaiguan recently?"

"My lord, everything is fine, the sergeant is very stable."

"Oh, what is the situation of the officer, what is your mood, this official has cut off a large number of border troops, and the situation of the guard station, you and I are both clear, most of these military cantonments are the source of income for the officers, and the official has cut off the financial routes of these officers, are they so calm?"

Wu Sangui's body shook and quickly stood up, he knew Su Tiancheng's ability, at this time, quibbling was useless, Su Tiancheng came to Liaodong, attacked Dalinghe City and Black Mountain City, invincible, and forced Huang Taiji to retreat, Liaodong, which has always been desolate, soon began to regain its vitality, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

Wu Sangui knelt on one knee.

"My lord, the last general should die, there are indeed people among the last generals who are talking about it, all this is the fault of the last general, and the last general will definitely correct it to avoid these words from appearing again."

"General Wu, get up, the relationship between you and me is different, I also said it very directly, no matter who it is, as long as he is involved in the peace of the border pass, I will not show mercy, I will punish in my eyes, the border army stationed in Shanhaiguan is good as a whole, but individual officers, it is really not like words, this kind of atmosphere must not spread, I have a list of five people here, these five people, you see how to deal with it."

Sweat drops appeared on Wu Sangui's forehead, he took the list, and after just one glance, he knew that Su Tiancheng had mastered all the circumstances, these people were the people who jumped the most, and they were also his henchmen.

"My lord, the last general thinks that these people should be beheaded, which affects the stability of the border army."

"Very good, then follow what you say, in addition, the border troops stationed in Shanhaiguan also need to be adjusted, you come to Ningyuan, Zu Dashou will go to Shanhaiguan, and the sergeant will also make appropriate adjustments, always stationed in one place, and the sergeant is also bored, and needs to change the environment."

Seeing that Wu Sangui's face was getting whiter and paler, Su Tiancheng changed his tone.

"Brother Wu, you have been stationed at the border for a long time and have made great contributions, I still have to recommend it to the imperial court, the excerpts have been prepared, and you are recommended to serve as the imperial envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and you will be rewarded for your merits, do you say yes."

Wu Sangui was a little dizzy, he was born in a military family, and he never thought that he could concurrently serve as a civilian official, of course, this is a great thing, he can glorify his ancestors, but his own army has been transferred like this, and he is also leaving Shanhaiguan, which is a little unacceptable, but Su Tiancheng has already said it, and it is impossible for him to object, if he really annoys Su Tiancheng, people will move their fingers, and they will be in big trouble, in this case, they are still obedient.

At this time, Wu Sangui was more cautious, it seemed that Su Tiancheng was completely in control of the situation in Shanhaiguan, and he would pay more attention to it when he arrived in Ningyuan in the future. (To be continued......)
