Chapter 783: There is no other use than clamoring

Wang Tong went to Shanxi to investigate the matter of Zonglu, and the ministers of the court and the central government were dissatisfied, not to mention the officials and scholars, such matters were the authority of the civil ministers, and a Jinyi guard commanded the same knowledge to intervene.

However, there are too many things that Zong Lu can't figure out about this matter, and it is also true that everyone is unwilling to touch their hands, and Wang Tong has been in Beijing for a day, and the person most trusted by Emperor Wanli is him.

The most important reason is that Wang Tong is in Beijing, and there are too many people who are not used to what he does, but he has done everything right, which is very beneficial to Jiangshan Sheji, which makes people helpless.

Let Wang Tong investigate Zong Lu, firstly, it will be an eyesore to leave, and secondly, it will allow him to suffer a little loss in the matter of Zong Lu, which will also affect his status in the court and the emperor's heart.

Things are always so unexpected, Wang Tong didn't stay for a few days after he went to Shanxi, and the news came back from all over Shanxi, saying that Wang Tong didn't know how to investigate at all, and actually asked those clan disciples one by one, which was really ugly.

This son of heaven, cold and starving, has never seen the world, isn't this kind of thing a shame on the face of the heavenly family, and the emperor's face is also dull, you Wang Tong actually did this, isn't it an intention to deceive the king.

As for why the civil officials did not rule the sect on weekdays, and why the princes of the court and the central government did not reform such absurd policies, there was no money in the locality, and the children of the clan suffered and suffered poverty, so they could only rob and steal, and besiege the government, no one mentioned it.

But if the officials wanted to attack like this, they were immediately scolded by their colleagues and elders, and if this performance went up, I am afraid that there will be nothing to do on Wang Tong's side, and the local officials on the Shanxi side will have to fall a batch, and the Shanxi Township Party, which is an official in Beijing, will definitely not agree, and will attract enemies for themselves.

This matter came to an end, and suddenly, the situation changed, and suddenly outside the border wall of Datong, horse thieves were rampant, traveling to and from merchants, and were repeatedly robbed and killed.

Originally, those officials and ministers who wanted to make trouble for Wang Tong on Zonglu saw the foresight of not doing it at the beginning, and the Shanxi officials of the Beijing Division and the officials who were kind to them made noise one after another, asking for troops to be sent to suppress the thieves and bandits, and Zhang Xueyan, the secretary of the military department, was also overwhelmed.

Pingsuri Shanxi and Shaanxi were harassed by the Tartar cavalry, the people were killed, the soldiers were defeated, and they never saw what these people said or did, and there were even those who criticized the poor training and the cowardice of the soldiers, and said that they should not use the sword and soldiers in vain, and that peace is precious, and that since the peace agreement with the Ministry of Peace has been reached, it will be maintained for thousands of years and ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Now it's different, everyone is impassioned, and they all say that in the three hundred miles of the border of the Ming Dynasty, horse thieves are so rampant, where is the majesty of the Celestial Empire, if you don't go to exterminate it, you will definitely not be able to conquer all directions.

Some people also wonder if they have anything to do with Wang Tong about the rampant horse thieves, but it's too ridiculous, Wang Tong went to investigate Zonglu, and he has nothing to do with horse thieves.

can't say that, if you can give Wang Tong more trouble and let him take more responsibility, when something goes wrong, it will be easy to impeach, and some people think like this.

But Wang Tong led the troops out of the fortress quite brilliantly, if Wang Tong made a great contribution, it was not for him to make a wedding dress, some people hesitated, but hesitation is not possible, and some people simply played a neat play, saying that Wang Tong is in Shanxi, just to supervise the extermination of horse thieves.

This time in the palace is really "good as a stream", and after going up, he immediately has a will to go to Shanxi, so that Wang Tong can take on the heavy responsibility of exterminating the horse thief.

There are so many things in the world, but at this time, Shanxi and Beijing have become the focus and center, there are fast horses in and out every day, and there are letterheads every day.

When Wang Tong presided over the extermination of horse thieves, the activities of horse thieves were still frequent, and even the cavalry of the Tatars came out in large groups, and the side walls also reported more dangers.

Wang Tong exterminated the horse thieves in vain, and provoked the Tartars, isn't this wrong, I don't know what ridiculous things he did, to provoke such a disaster, this is almost the most desired result of the officials, and the impeachment of the twists and turns immediately swarmed out.

At this time, those who were sparse were often those who were seeking fame, or talking about the distinction between civil and military, the righteousness of the world, or the relatives and friends of the cadres who had been punished by Wang Tong.

There are some things that low-grade officials may not know, but when they reach a certain position, many things are naturally clear, Wang Tong is outside the Xuanfu and outside the Gubeikou, the two big victories are real, and he has such a talent to lead the troops in combat, but he is a horse thief outside the fortress, how can he spend so much effort, I don't know what is behind it.

is in a high position, he is much more cautious in what he says and does, he doesn't know the truth, and no one dares to act rashly, which makes Jingshi's words very strange.

The extermination of horse thieves is not good, that is, it hurts the interests of Shanxi border merchants, and the Beijing officials from Shanxi and their friends will naturally not give up, and they are the ones who make the most noise, but after a few days, they also immediately died down, and after a few days, they suddenly quieted down, which is very shocking.

Originally, Li Sancai and Gu Xiancheng thought that they had judged the general trend, Wang Tong was not in Jingshi, and he couldn't reach the movements here, and Jingshi's remarks were violent, if they could take advantage of the situation to incite them, they could completely bring down Wang Tong.

They watched for a few days, and when they were about to move, the *** of the Beijing division suddenly cooled down, and there was an official from the Shanxi department who said in the court: "Lord Wang is not familiar with this after all, if you want to rectify the soldiers and horses, it will take time to exterminate the horse thieves. ”

The person who spoke never had anything good to say about Wang Tong on weekdays, thinking that he was a traitor who brought disaster to the country and the people, but today he said these words, which is really surprising and inexplicable, and what is even more strange is that there are many people who echo it.

I asked someone to inquire, and the truth is very simple, the businessmen who have border trade have suffered heavy losses, but the big businessmen who are close to Wang Tong are buying materials in Shanxi, and the accumulated materials of each family are sold at a good price, Wang Tong was a traitor at the beginning, but now he is the God of Wealth, if he is offended, Lord Wang will not buy it, then who to find.

Those who want to make a fuss have also died down, and now if they want to attack Wang Tong, they have to clash with officials in Shanxi, so why bother, there is no benefit to take it, and it is not good to provoke yourself.

But since October of the 11th year of Wanli, that is, Wang Tong was ordered to go to Shanxi to investigate Zonglu, the situation has changed too quickly, and the matter of horse thieves has not stopped, and suddenly there is an urgent report into Beijing, saying that the cavalry of the Tartar brigade is dispatched to threaten the side wall, and Datong is in danger!!

Suddenly, the situation was critical, and all the people in the Jingshi City who knew about the military affairs and those who did not know about the military affairs were immediately anxious.

Since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the invincibility of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, and the bravery of Zhu Di's several Northern Expeditions of the Ming Dynasty, the rest of the time, almost all of them were passively beaten, and the Tartars were not beaten under the city of Beijing once.

Now Datong is in an emergency, doesn't it mean that today's Jingshi is also in danger, everyone in Jingshi is panicked, but after all, it is just an emergency, and the Tartars are active outside the border wall frequently, but they have not yet entered it.

Why is there nothing for a year, your king is in a hurry by going to investigate and deal with the horse thief, whose fault is this, it is naturally very clear, and immediately there are words and officials who are sparse and attacked, Wang Tong mishandled things, provoked border provocations, this is nothing, but there are scheming people who think that if Wang Tong is allowed to preside over the defense of the Tartars, such a responsibility is greater.

Although Wang Tong has had a big victory outside the Gubeikou, but that is mainly the credit of the famous general Qi Jiguang, there are no good generals in Datong, the border soldiers of Datong have always been weak, they are facing the Wangcheng of the Ministry of Response, the Ministry of Response is the overlord of the grassland, and the war of the Ming Dynasty for so many years has never been lost.

At that time, as long as Wang Tong makes a slight mistake on his side, or if there is any small mistake, it will definitely be a provocation and endanger the community, and such a big crime will be killed.

This time, the imperial court was "obedient to the will of the people", and soon there was a will, ordering Wang Tong to be the governor of Datong to supervise the matter of guarding against the Tartars.

If there is a person in a high enough position in Datong to be the governor and give him the right to decide, in this way, no matter what the situation in the future, you can pass the responsibility over, Emperor Wanli originally thought that he was a lot more mature, but this time it seems to be a little naïve, if Wang Tong is really regarded as a close courtier, then it should not be proposed to let him serve as the governor of the position, what is even more strange is that Zhang Cheng, Zhang Whale and others did not remind him.

The cabinet has been downward since the time of the declaration, and naturally will not have any opinions on the decision of the Wanli Emperor, but he sighed in his heart, even if the emperor wants to promote Wang Tong, it is not at this time, Governor Datong, this title is indeed good, and after Wang Tong is in office, it is much more convenient to be promoted and knighted in the future, but at this time, making such an appointment is not to help Wang Tong, but to harm him.

Since it is the will of the Son of Heaven, everyone is eager to find someone to take responsibility, and the eunuchs in the palace are silent, so why bother to remind them.

Next, it was to transfer the forbidden army from Tianjin, transfer troops from Jizhen to support, the household department allocated silver, and the military department made all kinds of documents.

Then, Wang Tong led the army out of the fortress to exterminate the horse thieves, and some people said that at this sensitive time, the army came out lightly, which was an unauthorized provocation, what if it caused a big disaster, wouldn't it be a disaster to countless people.

Then, Jingshi got the news that Wang Tong led the army to go deeper, and there was a big uproar
