325 The Emperor Adjusts the Northern Forces, Two Trumps Cards Marched into Shanxi
Now there are only a few things that make Zhu Qiyu sad, and Wang Ji's attitude is one of them.
After all, people's abilities are limited, and Zhu Qiyu doesn't understand what Wang Ji will do.
The most pessimistic situation, after Wang Ji defeated Yexian and welcomed back Zhu Qizhen, he directly supported Zhu Qizhen to restore the throne with an army of 100,000 in his hand, and it would be fun to have a Fengtian Jingjing.
Although this possibility is very, very low, and it is unlikely that Wang Ji would do such a stupid thing, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, he has to guard against it.
This kind of thing has happened more than once in history, and there are always people who think that others can't do such stupid things, but the reality is that someone really does it for you.
It's like Guan Yu firmly believes that Sun Quan can't be stupid enough to destroy the Sun-Liu alliance and let Cao Wei take advantage of the fisherman. But the reality is so magical, Sun Quan did not hesitate to choose to cross the river in white and backstab his allies.
Similarly, Zhu Qiyu also firmly believes that Wang Ji will not risk the world's disapproval, and he will run to rebel inexplicably if he has a good military department.
However, the heart of harming others must not be had, and the heart of guarding against others is indispensable.
The Marquis of Ningyang pacified the 100,000 troops of the southeast people's rebellion, and more than half of them were drawn from the elite of the northern border army. Zhu Qiyu returned 20,000 of the elite of the Ganliang border army to the Shaanxi Xingdu Division, which was led by Li Xuan, the Duke of Cao Guo.
In addition, the 8,000 Baoding officials who were transferred from the original Daning Capital Division were also given to the Fengtian Capital Division and incorporated into the Yingzhou Guard.
The three battalions and three guards of Zhu Qiyu's lineage, plus the elite border troops of Shaanxi and Gansu, were all concentrated in the capital and the important towns in the northwest, with a total of nearly 200,000.
If Wang Ji forcibly supports Zhu Qizhen's restoration, it is unreasonable, it is neither in line with human feelings nor legal principles, and it belongs to the unknown teacher.
Zhu Qiyu occupies the position of righteousness, occupies the center of the imperial court, and has an army of 200,000, so he can easily control the situation.
However, if in Nanjing, Hu Hui, Wang Ao, Yu Qian, Chen Mao, and Zhu Yi raised troops at the same time and echoed Wang Ji, it would be a real trouble.
200,000 troops against 200,000 troops, one side fighting on two fronts will be defeated.
Although it was a bit like a persecution paranoia, Zhu Qiyu still decided to impose some restrictions on the south.
One is to reorganize 100,000 reserve Japanese troops in Shandong who obey the emperor's orders, and even simply form another naval division.
Another one, Xu Chengzong, the Duke of Wei, had to be the leader of the Nanjing military, that is, the Nanjing garrison, and the governor's mansion of the Chinese army.
Thinking of this, Zhu Qiyu sighed heavily. Not to mention the new recruitment of 100,000 troops in Shandong, it is better to say whether you can afford to raise the three guards of the pro-army in your hands.
One hundred thousand pro-soldiers is a real gold-containing giant beast, and two million taels of silver per year can barely survive.
If you vigorously update some weapons, armor, bows, crossbows, and artillery, it will cost money like water. It's really a cannon that goes off, and the gold is ten thousand taels.
Won't you have to learn Wanli in the end and send eunuchs to collect mining taxes in various places, right?
The more Zhu Qiyu thought about it, the more he felt that he was not much stronger than Wanli. Wanli is to catch the wool of the whole country and work hard, and he is holding down the sheep in Shanxi to knock the bone and suck the marrow.
The more he thought about it, the more worried he became, Zhu Qiyu looked left and right, and now on the third floor of his own, He Yi was left alone, so he smiled helplessly and said with a wry smile: "Xingyi, call Yang Jie up in a while, you talk to him, I don't want to talk." ”
He Yi nodded: "Then what should Yang Jie do?" ”
Zhu Qiyu gritted his teeth and replied: "Knock on the bones and suck the marrow, and dig out all the wealth of Shanxi for me." The Yang family has been entrenched in Shanxi for decades, and the entire chain of smuggling from Shanxi to Wara is clear.
Let Yang Jie go to Shanxi to make money for me, I will let Yang Jie's family have a way out, and give him the title of Earl of Yingyang.
The Yang Jie family here only refers to Yang Jie's mother, wife, and children.
Yang Hong and Yang Jun's family members don't need to continue to live. ”
He Yi nodded, expressed understanding, and sent someone to invite Yang Jie upstairs.
Yang Jie came early in the morning and had been waiting for a long time with apprehension.
Now that it was easy to see the emperor, he immediately bowed and bowed, and he did not dare to raise his head on the ground.
"Get up, sit."
Zhu Qiyu turned his back to Yang Jie and looked at his Yuquan Mountain through the window. Just said one word to let Yang Jie get up, and then didn't speak again.
Yang Jie stood up tremblingly.
The next specific things are all arranged by He Yi.
From beginning to end, Zhu Qiyu has never met with Yang Jie.
As the emperor, Zhu Qiyu felt that it was time for him to start maintaining a sense of mystery.
Originally, now he is a mountain hermit who farms the land, and if he doesn't maintain a sense of mystery, he should lose his awe in the field.
Seeing Yang Jie away, He Yi asked, "Your Majesty, is just one Yang Jie enough?" ”
"Almost, now Shanxi Wen has Liu Zhongfu and Li Bing, Wu has Xu Heng and Tao Jin, and there are 20,000 Shenji Battalions and 20,000 Xiao Cavalry Battalions. And the 20,000 brocade guards I sent newly.
In addition, I sent a trusted person to act in secret. ”
He Yi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, no matter what, you have to secretly ambush a hand, and you can't prevent it." ”
When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he smiled with a confused face, and asked in a chattering voice: "The women I gave you, are they still useful?" ”
He Yi was taken aback: "Huh? It's easy to use, but it's easy to use, could it be that these women were also ambushed by His Majesty in advance? ”
"Not really, I'm not that bored. Those people were sent to you because they couldn't be raised.
At first, I could have sent a little more, fifteen women, I couldn't even serve them with exhaustion.
Don't you see that I don't even dare to go home now? ”
Speaking of this, He Yi suddenly remembered: "Your Majesty, the celebrant has reported that the few nobles who served in Beibei before the Emperor Taishang have now been sent back to Beijing for a long time.
Recently, a few of them have been asking for a higher ranking.
After all, the Jinyi guards who served by the emperor's side before, and the envoys who delivered the news, all had promotions.
These nobles feel that they have also experienced the bitter cold outside the Seychelles, and there is no merit, but also hard work. It really should go up a liter. ”
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "What people say is also reasonable, just use their bodies and deprive them of their dignity, but don't give them corresponding treatment, then they can't feed you medicine." ”
"Then promoted to a concubine?"
"Rise, rise, rise. Anyway, there are already so many concubines of the emperor, it doesn't matter how many there are or how few. ”
He Yi reminded: "Your Majesty, if you are promoted to a concubine, these people are qualified to live in the east and west six palaces." How should these palaces be distributed then?
These newly sealed people will not be compatible with the old concubine of the Emperor Taishang if they can't do it.
Moreover, two of the West Sixth Palaces were burned down, and one was inhabited by Empress Qian. Therefore, there are a total of nine palaces left in the east and west palaces where concubines can live.
Does Your Majesty want to let the old and new concubines live together, or readjust it so that the old concubines live in several palaces and the new concubines live in several palaces? ”
