Chapter 220: The Rebellion of Luxury, Hong Chengchou Enters Beijing (2nd Update)

Huang Liji is the first assistant in the end, and his subordinates naturally have henchmen, who have gone up and started a fierce battle with the impeacher. It's just that the number of people is far smaller than that of the adversary, and they are relatively weak.

In this case, even Zhu Youzhen is not easy to handle.

Of course, he can leave all the impeachment notes in the middle and not do anything with Huang Liji. But for Huang Liji, so many people impeached him, if he didn't fall in love again, he would inevitably be spurned by Manchu officials, saying that he was greedy for power.

At this moment, another incident suddenly broke out, causing the attention of the court to shift all of a sudden.

Zhang Heming, the governor of Sichuan, came to report that Yongning Tusi Xuan Chongming and Shuixi Tusi An Bangxian were in chaos again, raising 100,000 troops to cross Chishui and enter Zunyi.

In September of the first year of the Apocalypse, Yongning Tusi Xuan Chongming rebelled, led the territory to occupy Chongqing, trapped Zunyi, and besieged Chengdu, and then Guizhou Shuixi Tusi An Bangxian also followed the rebellion, occupying more than 40 prefectures and counties in Sichuan and Guizhou, and the military department Shangshu right capital Yu Shi Zhu Xieyuan Governor Yunguichuan and Guangxi Provincial Army encircled and suppressed for several years, Luxury Chongming and An Bangxian were driven out of Sichuan, but they were still entrenched in Guizhou Shuixi and other mountainous areas, and they were not eradicated for a long time, and it has been nine years now.

In the sixth year of the Apocalypse, Zhu Xieyuan resigned from his father's funeral and served his funeral, and was replaced by Zhang Heming, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, who was responsible for defending the Tusi soldiers of Luxury Chongming and An Bangxian, but they did not expect that Luxury An and the two sent troops to attack Zunyi again.

Zhu Youzhen immediately convened the cabinet and the military department to discuss how to deal with the matter. Although the first assistant Huang Liji was at home to be investigated, he was still summoned into the palace by Zhu Youzhen.

"Your Majesty, since Zhang Heming is sparse, he should be powerless to suppress it, and the minister suggested that Zhu Xieyuan be appointed as the governor of Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Guangxi, and Huguang provinces, and be fully responsible for encircling and suppressing luxury Chongming and An Bangxian." The king of the military department is in Jindao.

Huang Liji also nodded in agreement: "Wang Shangshu is right, Zhu Xieyuan has been fighting with Hao Chongming and An Bangxian for many years, and he is most familiar with them, and it is most suitable for him to be surrounded and suppressed by the governor. ”

Zhu Youzhen sneered: "From the first year of the Apocalypse to the present, the Lu'an Rebellion has lasted for nine years, and the provincial armies of Governor Zhu Xieyuan have also been six or seven years, but they have not been able to exterminate it for a long time. How much money was spent? If you use Zhu Xieyuan again, will you be able to exterminate the extravagant Chongming An Bangxian and them? ”

Who can guarantee this? Huang Liji and Wang Zaijin were silent. The place of Sichuan and Gui is full of mountains and dense forests, and the subordinates of Xuan Chongming and An Bangxian are all Tusi wolf soldiers who are good at mountain warfare, and it is not easy to completely exterminate them.

"However, if you don't use Zhu Xieyuan, who can you use?" Huang Liji sighed.

"In my opinion, the fundamental reason why the Lu'an Rebellion has not been extinguished for a long time is that the soldiers of Chuangui and others are weak in combat. In this way, the Beijing battalion soldiers have been reorganized for more than a year, and I heard that the combat strength has recovered a lot, Da Sima, I will appoint you to supervise the division, supervise the armies of the five provinces, and take 30,000 Beijing battalion soldiers to Guizhou, and be fully responsible for the encirclement and suppression? Zhu Youzhen smiled at Wang Zaijin.

"Huh?" Wang Zaijin was messy, he never expected that the emperor would let him lead the troops.

"This, Beijing is thousands of miles away from Guizhou, and it will take at least four or five months for the army to arrive, and I am afraid that the minister will not have time to delay the military situation!" Wang Zaijin shirked.

"Nine years have not been settled, and there is nothing to delay in months. In this way, first seize the favor and enable Zhu Xieyuan, let him replace Zhang Heming as the governor of Sichuan and Guizhou, resist first, and wait until you arrive in Guizhou, and then mobilize troops and horses from several provinces to annihilate Yu Chongming and An Bangxian in one fell swoop. This time, I don't want to expel me, but to completely occupy Shuixi, occupy all the territories of Lu Chongming and An Bangxian, abolish Tusi, set up prefectures and counties, and change all the places where the rebels are located!

Zhu Xieyuan couldn't afford such a big thing, otherwise he would have destroyed Yu Chongming and them a long time ago, and he would have waited until now? Da Sima, only you can take on this responsibility! Zhu Youzhen said from the bottom of his heart.

"This ......" Wang Zaijin was still hesitating, how comfortable it was to be in the military department in Beijing, how could he be willing to go all the way to Guizhou where the birds didn't to fight the Tusi soldiers?

"Why, doesn't Da Sima want to share my worries?" Zhu Youzhen's face sank.

"The minister obeys the order...... Wang Zaijin can only reluctantly agree.

Huang Li wanted to speak and stopped, looked at Zhu Youzhen's face, and then fell silent.

......

"Your Majesty, the minister is against it!" After hearing this, Li Banghua, the head of the Jingying Rong Political and Military Department, hurriedly entered the palace to meet him.

"In the southern provinces, some of them are armies, so why bother to transfer troops from Beijing to quell the rebellion? Not to mention the hard work all the way, how much food does it cost? Besides, the soldiers in Beijing are all northerners, and they can't adapt to the hot and humid weather in Guizhou. Li Banghua said angrily.

Zhu Youzhen naturally knew that what Li Banghua said was very reasonable, but ......

"Li Shilang, you have been rectifying the Beijing camp for more than a year, and you keep saying that the Beijing camp has changed greatly, are you training a veteran soldier who can only watch and not fight?" Zhu Youzhen asked lightly.

"Jingying is naturally much stronger than before. But Your Majesty, you know that this is not what I am talking about, it is really inappropriate to transfer troops from Beijing to Guizhou for four or five thousand miles. Li Banghua said helplessly.

"What's out of place! Strong soldiers have always been fought in battle, and the Jingying has been peaceful for too long, if you want to glow with the strong combat effectiveness of Chengzu, you have to go through a bloody battle. As for the food and salary you mentioned, according to the usual practice, they are all borne by the prefectures and counties, and the local government withholds so much tax every year, what do you keep it for? Could it be that if the Beijing camp does not go to war, it will not cost money and food to stay in the capital? The Beijing battalion soldiers went to war, and the imperial court saved a lot of money to raise soldiers. Zhu Youzhen said disdainfully.

"Your Majesty, the account is not this algorithm......" Li Banghua cried and laughed.

"Well, I've made up my mind, so I don't need to say more. Even if the Beijing camp doesn't have time to fight, you can also exercise it all the way. Zhu Youzhen said categorically.

"In that case, the minister asks for an order to take the Beijing battalion soldiers out on the expedition." Li Banghua said angrily, "Jingying was trained by the ministers, and no one knows them better than the ministers. ”

Zhu Youzhen shook his head and refused directly: "You are not suitable, Zhu Xieyuan is the governor of Sichuan and Guizhou in the military department, you are the squire, who listens to whom you and Zhu Xieyuan go to Guizhou?" Only Wang Zaijin, the secretary of the military department, can suppress Zhu Xieyuan. Besides, there are 30,000 soldiers in the Beijing camp, and there are still half of the people left, and these people still need you to continue to practice. ”

"Alright, Obey." Li Banghua could only give up.

......

Wang Zaijin led 30,000 Beijing battalion soldiers to set off, the position of the secretary of the military department was vacant, and the courtiers unanimously recommended Li Banghua to succeed him, but Zhu Youzhen refused, but announced the transfer of Hong Chengchou, the governor of Xuanda, to Beijing and serve as the secretary of the military department.

The ministers finally understood that the emperor's intention to let Wang Zaijin go to Guizhou as a superintendent turned out to make room for Hong Chengchou. Hong Chengchou was originally the governor with the title of secretary of the Ministry of War, and now he is temporarily the secretary of the Ministry of War.

In addition, Hong Chengchou has the military exploits of breaking the Karaqin Department, and his achievements are much stronger than Li Banghua, even Li Banghua has nothing to say, saying that Hong Chengchou is more qualified to be this Shangshu than himself.

Li Banghua has expressed his position like this, and the other ministers naturally have nothing to say.

What's more, the energy of the courtiers was still involved in the impeachment of the first assistant Huang Liji, and there was no time to make extraneous branches.
