Chapter 901: A Return to Man Gui (Thanks to the Monk Hulu for the Reward)
"The last general Datong General Mangui knocked to see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "In the Qianqing Palace, a military general's official uniform of Mangui paid homage, and the mountain shouted long live."
"Aiqing is flat, Wang Chengen, give General Man a seat." Li You said gently, now that Wang Chengen has become an upstart in front of Li You, the daily affairs of serving with him will be handed over to him, and Cao Huachun has been busy with the affairs of the sect recently, and it often takes several days to have time to report in front of Li You.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Man Gui saluted again, he stood up and sat on half of his buttocks, and then asked in a daze, "Dare to ask why Your Majesty summoned the last general?" As soon as these words came out, Wang Chengen and other eunuchs who were waiting left and right couldn't help but change color, the emperor summoned you to come, and you came, and you dared to ask why, this is too unruly, right?
"Haha, General Man's temperament is really straightforward." Li You didn't get angry, he saved himself a lot of time by asking like this, so he also said straight to the point, "Now that the Guanning Army and Dongjiang Town have been reorganized, their strength has increased greatly, and the Xuan Army is also a strong army that I have in the Ming Dynasty, presumably General Man doesn't want to see the Xuan Army being left far behind by the Guanning Army and Dongjiang Town, right?" After the training of the Xuan army is completed, it will be the turn of the soldiers of Shanhai Town, Taiyuan Town, Yansui Town, Ningxia Town, Guyuan Town, Gansu Town, Changping Town, Zhenbao Town, Lintao Town, and other towns. ”
Daming in the east from the Yalu River, west to Jiayuguan, stretching thousands of miles of northern frontier defense line has set up Liaodong Town, Jizhou Town, Xuanfu Town, Datong Town, Taiyuan Town, Yansui Town, Ningxia Town, Guyuan Town, Gansu Town nine frontier towns, known as the "Nine Border Town" in history, and then added Changping Town, Zhenbao Town, Wanli years and from Jizhou Town to Shanhai Town, from Guyuan Town to Lintao Town, so the name of nine sides, in fact, it is thirteen military towns.
As soon as he heard that all the military towns of the Ming Dynasty were to be reorganized, not just for his own Xuanda Town, Man Gui's heart suddenly felt a lot more comfortable, and then recalled the many persuasions that he had sharpened in Macao before entering Beijing, Man Gui hesitated for a moment and said, "The last general is the military general of the Ming Dynasty, and he should obey His Majesty's orders, and His Majesty will do whatever His Majesty asks Man Gui to do, but I don't know how Your Majesty will place the soldiers in the Xuan Army?" ”
"Like the Guanning Army and Dongjiang Town, all officers and soldiers need to be re-examined, and if they can pass the audit, they will continue to stay in the army for training, and they will still return to Xuanda Town to serve as soldiers after completing the training." Of course, there will be changes in the specific arrangements after going back, and the previous results will definitely not be continued, "If they cannot continue to serve in the army because of the old, weak, sick and disabled, the imperial court will not let it go, and will give them different amounts of severance pay according to the number of years they have served in the army, positions, etc., and allocate land to them for resettlement, so that these soldiers who have served the country for many years will not have nowhere to go." ”
The location of the Xuanda army is also inhabited by the vassal clan, this time the clan was eliminated, and a large amount of land was taken back from them, coupled with the results of the previous extermination of the eight families of the Jin Shang Dynasty, there is almost no problem in placing these soldiers, "Of course, if they don't want to continue to stay in Xuanda, the imperial court also has other arrangements, if they are willing to go to Liaodong to reclaim the famine, the Chaoting Court will allocate seed farming tools, if they are willing to go to Liuqiu, the same is true." ”
Liaodong and Liuqiu now have a big gap in human resources, if they can be lured there, the local officials will definitely welcome them, with these veterans with rich combat experience to join, it can also add some martial arts to these two places, whether it is to deal with those thieves in Liaodong or the natives of Liuqiu, it will be more convenient.
"Xuanda has been dry for many years, and the land is scarce, while Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and it is not a good thing for them to go to Liaodong, but it is not clear how they will end." Man Gui also went to Liaodong to participate in the war, and he also had some understanding of the local situation, which was undoubtedly much better than Xuanda.
"General Man, don't worry, when the time comes, I will arrange for people who have been to Liaodong and Liuqiu to tell them about the local situation, and let them choose for themselves." Hearing this, Man Gui seemed to have accepted this decision, so Li You's mood also improved, since he was so knowledgeable about current affairs, then he should also give Man Gui a little benefit, so after explaining this matter, Li You continued, "After the re-training of the Xuan army is over, it is time for me to understand Daming and Jiannu, I originally planned to let Lu Xiangsheng lead the troops to take this important position, but if General Man is willing, he can also go together." ”
Man Gui was originally a small people in Xuanhua, and today's achievements are inseparable from Jiannu, he first served as an officer because he was recommended by Yang Hao, the right attendant of the Ministry of War, and then because of the appreciation of the governor Wang Xiangqian, he successively promoted him to serve as a guerrilla on Shitang Road, a general at Xifengkou, and when Sun Chengzong came out to guard Shanhaiguan, he promoted Man Gui to serve as a deputy commander-in-chief, and worked together with Yuan Chonghuan to build the city wall, making Ningyuan an important town in Liaodong, and accordingly defeated the attack of Jiannu many times.
Man Gui and Jiannu have been fighting for many years, and have already formed a deep hatred that cannot be resolved, the first two wars in Zunhua and Liaodong have not caught up, and they have always felt deeply regretful, and now they have heard that they have the opportunity to participate in the final battle with Jiannu, and they are excited at the moment, and they quickly got up and knelt down to thank them, "The last general will live up to Your Majesty's expectations, and I am willing to personally take off the head of the slave chief Hongtai and dedicate it to Your Majesty." ”
"General Man is now the governor of the capital, right?" After all, this is a long-term pie, or to give something more substantial, "Come on, the proposed purpose, promote General Manchu to the right governor of the five armies, and reward five thousand taels of silver." "Promoted Man Gui's official position and rewarded him with money, but he did not grace his sons and nephews as officials as before, which is also a long-term plan, and entrusting people who do not have quality to important tasks can only harm others and themselves, and it is never advisable.
"After the extermination of Jiannu, if General Manchu makes another meritorious service, I will not hesitate to be rewarded with knighthood." Man Gui first stood up and obeyed the orders of the imperial court, which can be regarded as setting a good example for solving the problems of other border towns in the future, Li You naturally wanted to be rewarded heavily, so after Man Gui thanked him, he encouraged again.
With the support of Man Gui, the reorganization of the Xuan army was carried out smoothly, Yue Yun sent his capable manpower, and Li You also transferred Li Zicheng and other young talents from the new army to participate in the reorganization of the Xuan army, I believe that it will not be long before this army will be reborn from the ashes and its combat effectiveness will be further improved.
