Chapter Seventy-Five: The Right to Secret

If the family is in Liao, it seems that there is no burden to surrender. Anyway, the family and property are all there, it's just a change of hairstyle and a change of loyal master.

As for the guest soldiers, isn't it because their families are far away and surrendering will implicate their families, so they dare to fight, or do they have to fight desperately?

Watching the secret letter ask questions in an inquiring tone and write down his own analysis and judgment, Xiong Tingbi was extremely pleased.

In the forty-seventh year of Wanli, the famous Battle of Salhu occurred, and the 470,000 troops commanded by Yang Hao of Liaodong were defeated.

After the court discussion, Xiong Tingbi was promoted to the right attendant of the military department and the right to the imperial history, replacing Yang Hao as the Liaodong Economic Strategy, so that the Liaodong war situation of the Ming Dynasty was revitalized, "from the people's hearts to be solidified." ”

Summoned to move and pacify Shenyang, and entered Fushun on a snowy night, Xiong Tingbi used the tactics of resisting the enemy to defend the city, so that Jiannu could not be found.

At that time, there were also attacks on Xiong Tingbi in the court. But Emperor Wanli trusted Xiong Tingbi, gave him the sword of Shangfang, sheltered him from the wind and rain, and raised food for him.

But all this changed after the death of Emperor Wanli. In the first year of Taichang, Ming Guangzong ascended the throne, and Yao Zongwen and Liu Guojin, the director of the military department, began to slander and slander Xiong Tingbi because of personal grudges.

Subsequently, Yao and Liu instigated a group of people to rise up and attack, and Xiong Tingbi had to be dismissed. As a result, the imperial historian Gu Yu, Feng Sanyuan, and Zhang Xiude, gave Wei Yingjia in the matter, and took advantage of the loss of the Puhe River to attack wantonly.

Xiong Tingbi was helpless and sad, returned Shang Fang's sword, resigned, and Emperor Tianqi allowed it.

Then, in less than a year in the first year of the Apocalypse, Shenyang, an important town in eastern Liaodong, and Liaoyang, the capital of eastern Liaodong, fell one after another, Yuan Yingtai committed suicide in fear of crime, and all east of the Liaohe River fell into the possession of Houjin. At this time, the ministers in the court remembered Xiong Tingbi again.

Xiong Tingbi was activated again, but the Donglin Party pushed Wang Huazhen as governor again. After discord and disagreement, the current situation has been reached.

In the period of being excluded, attacked, and decentralized, Xiong Tingbi missed Emperor Wanli very much, and missed the time when he was unreservedly supported and trusted by the emperor.

In history, Emperor Wanli once impeached the Yanguan and gave Xiong Tingbi a very meaningful will.

"The corruption of the Liao affair is caused by the local officials' playfulness, Xiong Tingbi is bent on revitalizing and restoring the feudal territory, and I rely on it deeply. Today, the situation is very urgent, how can I give up my previous efforts when I am relieved of my shoulders! Loyal to the work, and the ministers work together, without being hindered by people's words. ”

Looking at this passage, it can be said that he is serious and extremely trusting.

"Unhindered by people's words" is even more reassuring, showing Wanli's determination, let others say go, I believe in you, do it according to your ideas, I am optimistic about you.

From this point of view, Wanli is still wise, has some talents who know people, and does not doubt the use of people, stabilized the situation in Liaodong with Xiong Tingbi, and gradually began to counterattack.

It is a pity that once the son of heaven and a courtier, this is one of the characteristics of Chinese dynasties. Wanli died, and Xiong Tingbi's good days came to an end.

Since the first year of Taichang, the remarks attacking Xiong Tingbi have increased suddenly, "slandering Tingbi for abandoning the collective strategy and being independent and wise". A lot of the content of the attack is a rehash of the same old tune, but the key is that the emperor has changed.

As a result, the situation in Liaodong was very bad, and Xiong Tingbi had to take over this mess again.

After years of whirling and fighting with Jiannu, Xiong Tingbi knows the strength and weakness of Jiannu.

At this time, it was not the Wanli period, with the fall of Shenyang and Liaoyang, the plan of "building borders and forts, and defending as a war" that he once advocated was out of date.

Therefore, Xiong Tingbi proposed a tripartite layout strategy: to contain most of the enemy's forces with Quang Ninh; The ports of Tianjin, Deng, and Lai set up naval fleets to attack the enemy's rear by taking advantage of the sea to attack the enemy's rear, causing Jiannu to take care of one thing and lose the other, and fall into passivity.

Although the imperial court approved Xiong Tingbi's strategy, the tripartite arrangement was time-consuming and laborious, and it could not be achieved in the short term, which caused criticism and opposition from the officials of the DPRK and China.

Wang Huazhen is an example, she never mentioned defense, and she bragged about the bulls, but she was appreciated and supported by the bigwigs in the DPRK and China, and Xiong Tingbi was left out in the cold.

Frustrated, frustrated, coupled with a natural stinky temper, Xiong Tingbi's suspicion with Wang Huazhen and Zhang Heming is deeper, and it is also a helpless move to lead troops out of the customs this time.

When Zai Tunwei received the secret decree of the saint, he threatened and encouraged, gave Shang Fang the sword, sent Jinyi Wei to accompany him, seized the power of Wang Huazhen, and Xiong Tingbi had full authority to control Guangning.

Although it was the fiasco of the Ming army in Shaling, Xiong Tingbi also had the intention of cheering up, no longer with his bare hands, but with unified power.

Xiong Tingbi, who is familiar with the operation process of the imperial court, also has a good understanding of the secret decree of the saint, and admires the decisiveness of the saint.

When he entered Guangning, captured and killed the rebel general Sun Degong, imprisoned the governor Wang Huazhen, and issued a series of holy decrees of rewards and punishments and incentives, even Xiong Tingbi was shocked by the emperor's careful planning, and once again refreshed Xiong Tingbi's cognition.

Although the emperor is young, he is wise and decisive, vigorous and resolute, and has an accurate understanding of the battle situation and the strength and weakness of Jiannu.

The imprisonment of Wang Huazhen and the handing over of all the command power to Xiong Tingbi also clearly showed the emperor's tendency in the "economic discord".

Therefore, Xiong Tingbi, who was trapped in Guangning City, was not desperate and depressed, but he was excited and excited because the dust fell and was reused.

As the holy decree said: At this time, stick to Quang Ninh, even if he sacrifices his life to seal the territory, isn't it a Jielieqi man?

What's more, the young emperor also gave him as much support and help as possible, and he was very sure of holding Guangning, but he was not sent to death.

Now, reading the secret letter of the saint again under the lamp, Xiong Tingbi seems to have returned to the time when the Wanli Emperor spoke to him seriously and trusted him.

The Holy God ordered him to defend Quang Ninh, but he inquired with a secret letter, that is, he believed that he could complete the task and survive to state his views to the Holy Lord.

The contact password illustrates this point even more, and it is clear that in the future, if there is a secret note in Liaodong and Liaoxi, it will be written in a password, and it will be handed over to the Jinyi Guard to the Holy Hearing.

What does it mean, as soon as the war in Guangning is over, Xiong Tingbi is the real strategy, the real power is in hand, and the secret can be played.

In the Ming Dynasty, there was no tantric system at all. Xiong Tingbi was surprised at first, but when he thought about it carefully, he was shocked and deeply impressed by the young emperor's methods.

You must know that once the secret music is formed into a system, it is equivalent to greatly weakening the functions and powers of the government affairs center and strengthening the imperial power.

This is only one of them, in Xiong Tingbi's view, the secret music goes directly to the emperor, the turnover link is reduced, and it can be quickly handled, which is very efficient.

On the other hand, Xiong Tingbi also thought of it, but he didn't dare to comment.

That is, the secret system will make officials spy on each other, dare not act arbitrarily, and act recklessly, which is conducive to controlling officials and purging officials.

The reason is very simple, Xiong Tingbi has the right to play secretly, but he doesn't know if others have it. Maybe the officials around him will also have this right, so what he does can be hidden from the emperor?

After thinking about it for a long time, Xiong Tingbi took a pen and wrote on the paper: "Secret, the minister Xiong Tingbi is careful to play......"

Do not write official titles, all formulas and phrases are not used at all, big and small things can be reported, and they must be completely confidential, and they must not be leaked, which is also Zhu Youxiao's strict requirements for the secret performance of his courtiers.
