Padang.

After listening to the report of Turg and Niu Wancheng, Mu Lima kicked the chair in front of him angrily and said angrily: "I treated him kindly, and he swore in the Guandi Temple that he dared to break his word and bully me!" ”

"General, he has more than 2,000 Manchurian disciples in his hands, and the last general and the general Niu are afraid of accidents."

Turge, the deputy commander of the Zhenglan Banner, looked aggrieved, it was not that he was ineffective, but that the other party had more than 2,000 Manchurian disciples in his hands, and he could only come back first to report it.

Niu Wancheng, the general soldier of Yunyang, was even more aggrieved, if it weren't for Tutaijun's rebellion, how could he be easily handled by the surnamed Wang.

But he didn't dare to pour this bitter water on the general.

In fact, he is also alone.

The people below are all called the surname Wang to buy it, and even the captain of his own personal soldiers is a fifth master, what can he do.

Tu Taijun clearly has a leg with the surname Wang, so it's best not to give advice to the general, otherwise he will probably be sold by Taijun again.

"What did Zhang Changgeng say?"

Mu Lima's face was pale, but he didn't expect Wang Yaowu to dare to "be full of self-respect".

And he must protect the lives of these Manchurian children, otherwise he will not be able to explain to his eldest brother or the imperial court.

After hesitating, Turg said honestly: "Your Excellency the Governor asks the general to think twice, the matter of appeasing Wang Yaowu has been reported to the imperial court, if the general forces this person, I am afraid that someone in the court will use this to impeach the general." ”

"Think twice? Zhang Changgeng clearly accepted the benefits of Wang Yaowu. ”

Mu Lima flicked his sleeves angrily, but he didn't expect Zhang Changgeng to also speak for that kid, and sat there sulking.

Seeing this, Turg said cautiously: "General, this matter is related to the lives of more than 2,000 Manchurian disciples, if you don't agree, in case"

The implication is that it is better to agree, otherwise Wang Yaowu will kill all the Manchurian disciples and re-confront the Qing Dynasty, and this matter will not be able to be cleaned up.

Mu Lima snorted slightly, how did he not know that the more than 2,000 Manchurian disciples could not die, the question was that if he agreed like this, wouldn't he be too faceless for the dignified General Jingxi.

"Master, let the slave tell the truth, the master promised him to be the chief soldier, and now he is given to the deputy general"

Niu Qi sometimes says a few fair words.

This is the way things are, if you Mulima don't break your word, how can his surname be like thunder.

There is a cause before there is an effect.

Not mentioning it at all has something to do with him.

It was precisely because of his bad idea that Mulima had the idea of "counteroffering".

Mu Lima frowned slightly, regarding the demotion of the Jingzhou General to the deputy general of Changde, he didn't think there was anything wrong with what he had done.

If Wang Yaowu can persuade the Western Mountain thieves to agree to accept the Qing Dynasty's appeasement, why should a Jingzhou general soldier be reluctant, the problem is that Wang Yaowu did not persuade the old thieves in the mountains to negotiate peace, so it would be a bit too much to pay Jingzhou as the actual general soldier.

After all, Jingzhou is unlike any other.

The location is so important.

If it were somewhere else, maybe it would have been a mouthful.

To give or not to give?

Is face or lining?

Mu Lima was a little hesitant for a while, and finally worried about the lives of the more than 2,000 Manchurian disciples and had to agree to hand over Jingzhou to Wang Yaowu.

What the letter said made Mulima change color.

Four days ago, the Empress Dowager convened a meeting of the princes and ministers in Beijing without the consent of the auxiliary ministers.

At the beginning of the meeting, the Empress Dowager expressed her dissatisfaction with him Mulima through the mouth of the little emperor who had not yet been in power, and his brother Ao Bai argued with him not to hesitate to confront the little emperor in person, and quarreled again with Sukh Saha at the meeting.

As a result, Yue Le, the idle Prince of An three years ago, took the opportunity to ask for a command and lead the army.

It was the Empress Dowager and the four auxiliary ministers who ousted Yue Le from power, and now although Ao Bai has a conflict with the Empress Dowager, both sides know that if Yue Le is allowed to lead the army, there is no doubt that the tiger will return to the mountain, and a young and strong uncle is a nightmare for the Qing Dynasty.

Dolgon and Azig were a lesson from the past.

Once Yue Le rises up again and sets out to make military achievements, it will be difficult for Ao Bai, who is a powerful minister, to suppress him again.

And Sukh Saha, the villain, will inevitably fall to Yue Le, who has come back, in order to fight Aobai, so as to form a new force headed by Yue Le in the court, which is unacceptable to Aobai no matter what.

In order to prevent the Empress Dowager from agreeing to Yue Le's expedition, Ao Bai had to agree to another arrangement against her will, that is, Prince Kang Jieshu would lead the army, while his brother Mulima would step down and return to Beijing as minister.

Compared with Yue Le, Jie Shu, who is only eighteen years old, is obviously very immature, even if he succeeds in pacifying the Western Mountain Thieves, he can't shake Aobai's status.

I thought that this matter would end here, but I didn't want the Empress Dowager to mention at the meeting that the generals of the Ming army who came to surrender before should be given preferential treatment, and named the general Wang Yaowu to imitate Li Sixing, the son of Li Dingguo, the king of the Ming and Jin Dynasty, and Liu Zhen, the son of Liu Wenxiu, the king of Shu, to carry the white flag of the Han army, and reward the capital to the third-class Adaha Fan position, hereditary fourth.

The officers and soldiers who surrendered to their units were also changed to the Han army, and the white flag was stationed in Jingzhou.

The Empress Dowager's decision made Ao Bai very dissatisfied, because he had been presiding over the appeasement of the Ming army, and the rewards for the generals who surrendered to the Ming army were also more than his hands, and now the Empress Dowager stepped in and crossed the auxiliary ministers to directly reward the generals, no matter what the reason was, Ao Bai thought that this was a challenge to his power.

Moreover, Jingzhou is an important town in Huguang, and it is really inappropriate to easily hand over the garrison to a general, so he proposed to set up a Manchurian city in Jingzhou, and selected eight Niu Lu from each of the eight banners of Manchuria and Mongolia to garrison 4,000 officers and soldiers with their families.

With the blue banner of Manchuria, Babur was the general of Jingzhou and was in charge of the banner soldiers.

Jieshu will lead the army to Huguang next month, so Ao Bai instructed Mulima to take out the captured Manchurian disciples before handing over the seal, and appeased the previous return to Ming, especially that Wang Yaowu must be good and not used by Jieshu.

The eldest brother's secret letter made Mulima very angry, but he also knew that the Council of Ministers of the Maharaja had passed it, and he had to hand it over if he didn't hand over the seal.

I really didn't want to cheap Jieshu's kid, so I thought about it again and again and told Turge to go to Xingshan immediately to agree to Wang Yaowu's request, and bring the Manchurian disciples in Wang's hands to Yichang.

"Huh!"

Seeing that Mulima was relieved to agree, Turg breathed a sigh of relief.

After he left, Mu Lima sighed and said to Niu Wancheng: "Niu, I have to tell you something. ”

Niu Wancheng hurriedly bowed and said, "General, please speak!" ”

Mulima shook his head: "Mine, the general's is gone, the imperial court sent Jieshu to replace me." ”

"Jie Shu?"

Niu Wancheng was stunned, "What does this person do, is he bigger than the master?" ”

"Big, much bigger, Prince Kang's work."

Mu Lima stepped forward and patted Niu Wancheng on the shoulder, and said with some guilt: "Niu, I originally planned to take you back to Beijing, but now it seems that you need to stay here, because only you are trustworthy here, and others are not trustworthy." ”
