Chapter 138: Liaodong Needs a Strong Man

Compared with Shen Yi's Spring and Autumn brushwork, Jinyiwei is much more straightforward, and because of the natural antagonistic attributes of factory guards and officials, Guangning's Jinyiwei Qianhu is eager to give Liaodong's civil and military some eye medicine, and naturally will not hide anything for them.

Shen Yi can also be regarded as a capable minister, quite capable of skills, known as "upright and strong", "famous and virtuous"; The chief military officer Cao Yi did not have any outstanding achievements, but the imperial court thought that he could guard the border and keep it more than enough.

But when the military report of the Tatar invasion and the intelligence of the Jinyi Guard reached the general army, Shen Yi, Cao Yi and others were unbelievable, thinking that it was just a bluff and did not take any precautions.

If it weren't for the high walls of Quang Ninh City, I am afraid it would be ......

After reading it, Kuang Yu's face turned blue, and he handed the report in his hand to the next person.

It wasn't until several people in the hall had seen it that Zhu Qizhen said coldly: "Let's talk about it, I remember that when Shen Yi took office in Liaodong, many people said that he was talented and could protect the country and the people."

As a result, this is how he protects the territory and the people of me, and governs Liaodong like this? ”

The ministers looked at each other, and then they pleaded guilty.

"Okay, I'm not asking you to ask for guilt, I'm discussing Liaodong matters with you, this Shen Yi ......"

Zhu Qizhen paused, the meaning was very clear, he wanted this Shen Yi's information.

"Your Majesty", the one who spoke was Wang Ao, the secretary of the Ministry who had just taken office.

"Shen Yi is a thirteen-year Jinshi in Yongle, and he was first awarded the Dali Temple Zuo Sizheng.

In the early years of Xuande, he was promoted to the imperial history, and after His Majesty succeeded to the throne, he was promoted to the right of the imperial history, assisted in Jiangxi, punished corruption and treachery, and was quite effective.

Later, he was transferred to Shanxi as the envoy and the political envoy of Shandong Zuobu, and the assessment was all first-class.

In the tenth year of orthodoxy, he was appointed to patrol Liaodong and supervise the military and political affairs of Liaodong. ”

In just one sentence, Wang Ao put Shen Yi's experience in the past 30 years in front of everyone.

Judging from his resume alone, Shen Yi can indeed be said to be quite capable and capable, after being released from Beijing, he was transferred to various places, and stepped into the position of a feudal official step by step.

"This Shen Yi, has he ever rectified military affairs?"

Zhu Qizhen asked.

Wang Ao thought for a while, "During Shen Yi's time in Shanxi, he led the local guard to exterminate the local bandits for many years, and the imperial court also issued a special decree to reward him. ”

In Wang Ao's eyes, this can barely be regarded as having been in contact with military affairs.

At this moment, it is not difficult for Zhu Qizhen to understand that in the eyes of the imperial court, Neng Chen is like this bear in Liaodong.

Suppressing bandits and fighting wars, can that be the same thing?

The full name of the position of governor of Liaodong is the governor of Liaodong and the results of military affairs, a governor who has never been in contact with military affairs, he can do a good job, hell.

Being good at governing the people doesn't mean that you can fight.

Of course, it can't all be Shen Yi's responsibility, this fiasco has a lot to do with the abolition of Liaodong's armaments.

The issue of armaments in Liaodong is not a day or two.

As early as the end of the eighth year of Xuande, Shandong Inspector Zhang Cong reported to the imperial court after returning from his inspection of Liaodong, saying that there was a huge shortage of Liaodong Wei and private service became a practice.

He had secretly inspected 100 households, and the original military quota of 130 people was originally set to be only five old and weak, and as for where the others were, the leading officers could only say "all are sent" to support me.

But at that time, neither Xuanzong nor Sanyang had any intention of pursuing it.

This matter will not be settled.

At that time, Xuanzong's health was no longer good, and he didn't have the time and energy to make a big move in Liaodong.

As for the famous Sanyang, in their eyes, the status of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division is far less important than that of the provinces in the Daming Pass.

I'm afraid that the Liaodong Dusi is already rotten, so why do you have to poke and splash yourself with this pus?

In the first year of orthodoxy, Sanyang invited the Empress Dowager Zhang, who was in charge of the government at that time, to make minor repairs and make up for it, and set up the post of governor in Liaodong, which strengthened the management of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, which can be regarded as an explanation.

This is not to blame the imperial court for despising Liaodong, after all, the basic plate of the Ming Dynasty is Guannei.

Finance and taxation are taken from the southeast, and most of the troops are in the northwest, and the enemy of the Ming Dynasty is recognized as the Mongolian steppe.

As for Liaodong, it is located in the bitter cold, the property is poor, the population is sparse, and there is almost nothing else except the military households.

Enemy?

Are they the uncivilized Jurchens in Liaodong or the vassal Korea?

Now only Zhu Qizhen knows in the whole world that the henchmen of the Ming Dynasty in the future are the Jurchens who no one can look down on now.

In addition to the Jurchens, the local military leaders of the Liaodong Prefecture, Zhu Qizhen was also extremely uneasy about them.

Their descendants are the gang of warlords in Guanning in Liaodong at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

"The battle of Liaodong, Shen Yi, Cao Yi is the head of Liaodong's civil and military affairs."

Zhu Qizhen set the tone for the two.

"Your Majesty means ......"

A trace of sweat oozed from Wang Ao's forehead.

"Governor Shen Yi was demoted to the prefect, and the chief military officer Cao Yi was demoted to a guerrilla, and he was waiting to fill the vacancy."

Zhu Qizhen said coldly, and did not hesitate to demote these two people.

Those who can go up, those who can't go down, if they don't do well, the governor will become the prefect, and the general mutiny will be guerrilla.

The ministers had no objection to this decision.

With the excuse of Liaodong's defeat, it is not an exaggeration for His Majesty to dismiss these two people and send them to prison.

Now it's just a demode, which is good, at least it keeps the official body, leaves room for it, and has a chance to turn over in the future.

Then the top priority now is the selection of the governor and the general army of Liaodong.

Especially the governor of Liaodong, Zhu Qizhen wants a place to live in the town and someone who has done practical things.

Liaodong needs a strongman.

Zhu Qizhen asked them to apply for suitable candidates in the next few days to clean up the mess in Liaodong as soon as possible.

Just when Zhu Qizhen thought it was okay, Wang Zuo suddenly mentioned something.

"Your Majesty, in the twelfth year of orthodoxy, Your Majesty went to the West again, and to this day it costs 200,000 taels of silver every year.

Go to the West......

This is an expense that Wang Zuo has managed to find that can be cut, and he feels that His Majesty will definitely support it.

Go to the West......

Zheng He's voyage to the West in the early Ming Dynasty can be the pinnacle of ancient China's maritime and naval work.

The last time Zheng He went to the West was in the eighth year of Xuande.

Later, on the grounds that the court was overwhelmed by the huge amount of money, Xuanzong finally made concessions and stopped this great cause.

There are few records in the history books that during the Ming Yingzong period in history, he also went to the West again.

It's not for anything else, Zhu Qizhen, who wants to be a character like his grandfather, feels that going to the West and coming to the court from all countries is very dignified.

Of course, this scale can no longer be compared with Zheng He's period, in the eyes of hundreds of officials, it is just that the young and vigorous emperor is bent on doing things for the sake of face.

I don't object, I'm just afraid that I will be hated by the emperor.

Now that His Majesty is becoming more and more stable and mature, and coinciding with the sharp increase in spending this year, it is a good time to bring it up.
