Chapter 312: Decision

"From a practical point of view, I should have given the abbot a pardon and threw him to Siberia to cut down trees. In Zhang Cheng's office, Zhang Cheng, who looked indifferent, took a sip of tea with a teacup, "And in doing so, I can maintain the fragile alliance between me and the emperor, so that everyone is still in a tacit level."www.biquge.info I need his name, he needs my strength. Our common enemy is still strong, and starting infighting now is not something a mature politician should do. ”

"From a practical point of view, it is." Wang Yan, who was sitting on the sofa opposite Zhang Cheng, raised his hand and touched his gray hair, and said, "Now is not the time to turn your face with the emperor." Wang Yan, who was originally in the prime of life, has gradually shown his old age at this moment, and his busy work and huge pressure have made him suffer from insomnia, and his mental state has become worse and worse.

Zhang Cheng glanced at Wang Yan and said with a smile, "Have you been too tired lately?" How about I give you a vacation to spend some time with your family? ”

"Forget it." Wang Yan smiled and glanced at Xiao Hongbao, who was sitting beside him without saying a word, and said softly, "Wait until the war is over before you go on vacation, at that time there is time to rest." It's not time to rest yet. ”

"Your Excellency." Xiao Hongbao waited for a while, then looked at Zhang Cheng: "How should this matter be handled?" ”

"Everything else is easy to say." Zhang Cheng's face suddenly turned cold when he heard this. He put the teacup in his hand on the table in front of him, leaned back on the back of the sofa, crossed his legs and said coldly, "They sent arms to the Japanese Resistance Army, causing many casualties among the officers and soldiers stationed in Japan, and this matter cannot be let go no matter what." ”

Wang Yan heard the killing intent in Zhang Cheng's words, and after a moment of silence, he spoke softly, "Really moved that Jing Haihou's words, what did the emperor say?" ”

"It's the same for everyone." Zhang Cheng shook his head, a fierce color flashed in his eyes, and he raised his finger and shook it gently, "No matter what, don't forget your heart." ”

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Cheng stood up and slowly walked to his desk, raised his hand to caress the globe on his desk, and said in a deep voice, "What are we doing all this for?" What are we sitting in our current position for? And what is this war for? Not for personal enjoyment and fame. We are for this country and nation to be able to stand at the top of the world forever! ”

Zhang Cheng's words moved Wang Yan and Xiao Hongbao at the same time, and the two stood up together.

"To achieve this goal, we will not fear any enemy. Even if the whole world unites against us, we will bring them all down. An excited look flashed in Zhang Cheng's eyes, "No matter who it is, no matter what his identity is." Everything he has is given by this country and this people. As long as he does something that harms the interests of the country and the nation, then his identity and everything he has no longer matter. Because he has turned his back on his foundation. ”

Zhang Cheng turned around and looked at his henchmen, took a deep breath and calmed his mood, "It doesn't matter if he is the national ruler or Jinghaihou." It doesn't matter whether it forced the emperor to the point of turning his face. None of that is something I want to consider. Since I am the supreme commander of the Ming Dynasty, I am responsible for the entire Ming Dynasty and all the people of the Ming Dynasty. The officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were killed by the Japanese resistance because of this incident, and those who provided weapons must pay the due price! This matter will definitely not change because of personal identity and other concerns. That's why we're in the position we are in. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency!" Wang Yan and Xiao Hongbao spoke in unison.

"Shot."

......

The storm that began with the gambling incident of the Japanese town defenders soon came to an end. Almost all the people on the line were swept away. Except for He Zhengtao, who took the initiative to confess everything and turned into a tainted witness, basically none of the other people involved in this matter had a good end.

All those who participated in the delivery of arms to the Japanese resistance were sentenced to death, and their actions were already treason, and Zhang Cheng could not let them go regardless of their status.

The law of the land is also the only option. The rest of those who helped to collect money were sent to cut wood in the vast forests of Siberia. It is estimated that it is absolutely impossible for these people to return to the Ming Dynasty in their lifetime.

As the leading core of Jinghaihou, the father-in-law of the Ming Emperor did not escape. Whoever intercedes, regardless of whether it will cause a break with the emperor. Zhang Cheng didn't care about this. The bottom line in my heart cannot be crossed, and the crime of treason can only be washed away by death. Zhang Cheng finally saved a little face for the emperor, and after the execution of Jing Haihou, he did not announce his crimes, but only said that he died of a violent illness. It was kind of giving him the last bit of face.

This incident had a great impact on the emperor. It's not that his relationship with the queen is very good, and he is heartbroken by the departure of his father-in-law. It was this ruler who greatly influenced his planned plans. Many are worried about whether he will be able to wrest power from Mr. Zhang. Even his father-in-law can't be saved, what about the others?

The frustrated emperor accepted Zhang Cheng's opinion, and the traitor really had to die. But the resentment of Zhang Cheng in his heart is increasing day by day. The inability to keep his imperial relatives made his majesty as emperor disappear, and at the same time made those who were willing to go with him suspicious. All this is unacceptable to him.

From this moment on, the young emperor, who originally had the intention of ruling the world with Zhang Cheng in his heart, finally made up his mind. In any case, all the rights that belonged to the royal family must be taken back.

After this incident happened, the entire defenders of Daming Town in Japan began a large-scale thorough investigation. The garrison command ordered the military police units to conduct an all-round inventory of the entire Japanese occupation zone without regard to the differences between the different branches of the armed forces. And the results of the examination were shocking.

From Nagasaki to Sendai, from Kagoshima to Sapporo, from Hiroshima to Akita. Almost all the Ming troops stationed in the first place broke out all kinds of things.

The most common occurrence of various units is that they go out without permission in violation of military discipline, do not return home at night, get drunk, gamble, and so on. In addition, the resale of military supplies and even firearms and ammunition has also been investigated. Not all of them were done by Jinghaihou's family, if they were, their power was big enough to make Zhang Cheng's heart tremble. Many are the problems of the garrisons themselves everywhere.

After the matter was reported to Zhang Cheng, it naturally made him furious. This kind of thing is simply a disgrace for the military. Before the war was over, these people began to degenerate, how could this be done.

Enraged, Zhang Cheng soon signed one order after another. All the officers and men of the garrison involved in the incident, no matter who they were, regardless of their rank, were dealt with by military law.

Ordinary violations of discipline are confinement, deduction of military merits, or even removal from office and reduction of military rank. And those who resold military supplies, even **, were all shot directly by the gendarmes. This large-scale and strict military discipline quickly restored the Japanese town defenders, who had gradually begun to relax, to their military appearance.

Not only were the people involved punished, but also the officers who were directly responsible for the incident. All kinds of warnings, punishments, transfers, and even outright expulsion from the military have emerged one after another. At least three divisional officers were forcibly transferred to the reserves. There are even more colonel-level officers who have been disqualified from the military and transferred to the reserves.

All of a sudden, the entire Japanese garrison was in danger, and no one dared to turn a blind eye to any violation of military discipline. The officers and men are no longer idle and causing trouble everywhere on a daily basis, and all of them have resumed all kinds of rigorous training. The war is not over.

"Since you don't want to live a good life, it's better to go to the front line to vent your grievances." Zhang Cheng was very dissatisfied with these troops, how could the army that was originally brave and fearless on the battlefield become like this in such a short period of time? Zhang Cheng, who was furious in his heart, directly ordered the rotation of troops.

Units stationed in Japan were replaced, and the Marines went to the Hawaiian Islands to prepare for an attack on the American continent. And all the troops of the army were sent to the North African theater to prepare for the upcoming landing operation in Europe.

"Can't wait any longer." At the station of the first regiment, three battalions and one company of the Ninth Marine Division, He Dazui came to Song Tieniu's side and whispered, "I found out the news from the battalion headquarters, and our division will be transferred to Hawaii soon." If you don't do it now, you really don't have a chance. ”

"But now that the troops are watching so closely, it's a problem for us to even go out, how can we do things?" Song Tieniu, whose face was full of hesitation, frowned and spoke. Now, because of the previous events, a large-scale storm of military discipline has been set off in the entire Japanese garrison. All the troops watched very closely, and the soldiers would never be allowed to leave the barracks.

"I can't help it." He Dazui gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "I can only find the company commander together." We don't take the benefits alone, and the brothers share them equally. As long as the company commander joins, it can be done. Besides, we haven't done anything to endanger the country. You should do your brother a hand. ”

After He Dazui married a Japanese concubine, he changed his mind and prepared to be a new person. However, he had already lost all his belongings before, and his body was already clean and slippery. And he owes a lot of money to his robes. Although he has a salary and allowance every month, he has to send money home, support his concubine's family, and return the money he borrowed from his comrades-in-arms, and his life is miserable.

In this case, He Dazui, who was forced by money, thought about doing a ticket to get some hard goods to survive the urgent need. (To be continued.) )
