Chapter 074: Zhu Yijun's irritability

Zhu Yijun's guess was not in-depth, but he subconsciously guessed that he was probably fighting the idea of discord, or to put it more bluntly, the idea of dividing and disintegrating.

Gao pragmatic's idea is basically in line with his guess, but he thinks a little more. But just as Gao Shishi was about to explain clearly, he heard footsteps outside, and he and Zhu Yijun glanced at each other, but they were temporarily silent.

"Emperor, the celebrant has just received a letter from Gao Guangxian, the governor of the three sides, do you read it now?"

This voice is Chen Ju's voice.

Chen Ju knew that Gao Pragmatic was here, and he was a cautious person, so he still came to present Gao Guangxian's sparse essay, which means that this sparse essay must be very important.

Zhu Yijun and Gao Shishi both understood this, so the two looked at each other slightly, and after making eye contact, Zhu Yijun said, "Take it in." ”

Chen Ju then came in and presented a book of sparse texts with both hands.

Zhu Yijun looked at it, this sparse text should have passed through the cabinet, and there was a draft of Shen Shixing's vote on it, but the draft vote was written extremely simply: "It will be covered by the military department." "—just wait for the Ministry of War to answer.

Zhu Yijun snorted lightly, didn't say anything else, opened the sparse text and looked at it, frowned as soon as he read one or two lines, quickly swept the whole text, and handed it to Gao Pragmatic without saying a word. But when Gao pragmatically took it with both hands, he couldn't help but say: "You are also the official of the military department, so after reading it, you will directly represent the military department." ”

Hey?

Gao was a little surprised in his heart. Although I am also an official of the Ministry of War, the actual work of I, the Zuo Squire, is in charge of the Beijing camp, how can I represent the Governor of the Three Sides of the Ministry of War?

But thinking about it, before he saw the content of the sparse text, he didn't want to speculate, so he silently opened the sparse text and read it.

This article is written in a bit verbose, first of all, it is said that the budget of the three sides this year has been greatly reduced, and all kinds of errands are not good - no wonder Zhu Yijun frowned when he saw the beginning just now, after all, he personally made the decision to temporarily reduce the military salaries of the three sides this year.

Then, Gao Guangxian changed his conversation and talked about the fall of Xining. In fact, there is nothing to say, in short, one sentence: all mistakes are Yongchangwei's fault, Yongchangwei commanded the crime to deserve death - he has already taken it first.

Of course, the trilateral governor took the command envoy as easily as drinking cold water, but Gao Guangxian's writing was only afraid that there were some problems—not that there were problems with the choice of words and sentences, but that there were some problems with the attitude he showed. In his sparse text, no one is responsible for this matter, only Yongchangwei is responsible, so everything will be fine after punishing Yongchangwei's commander.

This style of high pragmatism is very familiar, but it is also not very familiar - prevarication is a very familiar officialdom routine, but how can you, the governor of the three sides, also Yongchangwei's number one boss, he Yongchangwei committed a crime, how can you mention that you want to "take leadership responsibility", how can it be completely non-touched? No wonder Zhu Yijun's face is ugly.

Gao Pragmatic sighed in his heart, but his face was as calm as ever, and he continued to look down.

Then Gao Guangxian finally began to get down to business, and as soon as he mentioned that the news of his loss in Xining reached Guyuan, he reacted and ordered Cao Zideng, the governor of Gansu, and Liu Chengsi, the general soldier of Gansu, to immediately deploy the opportunity to lead the army to suppress and wait for the opportunity to recapture Xining.

This article is actually not a big problem, after all, in the eyes of the imperial court, the trilateral governor must first find the governor of Gansu and the general army of Gansu if there is something to do.

One level presses one level, and this has always been the case in all dynasties.

However, the problem lies below, Gao Guangxian said that he originally wanted to mobilize Guyuan's troops to "help suppress", but Guyuan was barren, and after cutting military salaries this year, the usual drills have been greatly discounted, and if he wants to dispatch nearly a thousand miles to help suppress Xining, it is almost an impossible task, so he can't send troops now, but is doing his best to dispatch money and materials, and strive to get enough money and materials for the expedition as soon as possible, and then he can set off.

At this moment, even Gao Pragmatic couldn't help frowning.

What's going on with Gao Guangxian? You are a trilateral governor, and if there is such a big thing on the border, it is normal to behave in a hurry, okay?

As a result, you're good, you won't use that much authority at hand? Dispatch? Dispatch a fart, at this time, how much treasury silver has to be taken out first.

Who doesn't know the financial system of the Ming Dynasty? Although the center has no money, and the local government is not very rich, but after all, the local yamen also has a large amount of taxes under their own control, and now it is only the beginning of the year, is last year's money bottoming out, do you have to take it or can't get it?

Haven't you heard of the priorities of things?

Gao Shishi held his breath in his heart and continued to look down, but he almost had to turn his back on this look.

Gao Guangxian said that the treasury of Shaanxi and other places is not sufficient, and the local officials are unwilling to mobilize money and grain, and the princes of the northwest regions such as King Qing also said that the army should not move lightly, because it seems that it is not good to cut off Huangtaiji now, in case he dies after the Ordos Department Koubian, the Guyuan army is gone, then what should I do if Ningxia, Guyuan and other places are lost?

Gao Guangxian thought that the princes' worries were also very reasonable, so he decided to wait and see if he would die or not. In addition, as for money and food, he will still try his best to urge it again......

After reading it, Gao Pragmatic was speechless.

You are especially the governor of the three sides of the imperial court, and the princes are a fart to you, and you actually listen to them? And the local officials of Shaanxi refused to allocate money and grain?

I've got your ghost! How old a magistrate can speak with a straight waist in front of you, a master with the rank of secretary of the military department? If they refuse to give, you will have no choice? Are you going to be a governor or a householder?

Zhu Yijun rolled his eyes angrily when he saw Gao Shipra, and couldn't help but snort coldly, "What do you say?" Is this Gao Zhengtai unable to come up with the money, or is he unwilling to take it at all? ”

The emperor's words have obviously brought anger, and even said the word "Gao Zhitai" - the term "Taiwan" is actually no problem, after the period of the Great Rites Discussion, the court, including the people, still called the governor "Taiwan", the emperor is not unaware, but he will not pursue it. After all, the change of the "general system" to the "governor" had the background of the times, and it was the Great Rites Discussion.

However, it is not normal for the emperor to call him so, because normally the emperor should call his courtiers by their first names. Of course, in practice, the emperor sometimes addresses the ministers who are close to him, and the ministers and cabinet elders who have served as his ministers may also be called "sir".

In any case, however, the emperor would not usually be referred to by the title of the officer, and if he did, it would be mostly sarcastic or angry, and only in rare cases it might be a joke.

Zhu Yijun is definitely not in the mood to joke now, so he must be sarcastic with anger.

But what he said...... Gao pragmatic is not very easy to reply, because Gao Guangxian is from the Jin Party after all, if he speaks according to Zhu Yijun's meaning now, it is not good that Gao Guangxian will lose his official position on the spot.

For Gao Pragmatic, Gao Guangxian's official does not mean that he must not lose it, but that he cannot lose it so simply and in such a hurry, because he is not ready for any contingency now. In case Gao Guang loses his official position first, and the cabinet is in trouble again, and as a result, the imperial court sends a minister of the Heart School to take over as the governor of the three sides, wouldn't the Shi School be at a loss and vomit blood?

Take 10,000 steps back and say that this situation did not happen, but it is not necessarily reliable to send a neutral minister over. The three sides of Shaanxi have been in power for all these years, and suddenly a governor of the non-real school was parachuted in the past, and who knows if the town can control the scene?

At present, the military situation is urgent, if this kind of thing happens, this Xining City is only afraid...... At least don't want to get it back this year.

Take another 10,000 steps back and say, the above two situations did not happen, but the emperor asked Gao Pragmatic to recommend a person to go, which is also troublesome, because Gao Pragmatic does not have this kind of preparation at the moment, and he can't find an absolutely reliable border minister henchman at hand for a while.

So Gao Pragmatic had no choice but to say with difficulty: "The barren three sides of Shaanxi must be barren, but if you want to say that you can't make up any money, the minister thinks it's impossible." Judging from Gao Wenchuan's sparse writing, I am afraid that he is neither unable to take the money, nor does he dare to take the money, but he has not realized the danger of the current situation, so he is still dealing with it according to the ordinary situation......"

"Normal?" Zhu Yijun snorted lightly: "What is the usual situation?" Is it common for the governor to not get the money to send troops? ”

"No, it's not that you can't get it, but you have to go through some rip-offs first." Gao pragmatic spread his hands: "The minister has also been an official in the border area, and he knows the thoughts of the border officials, generals and border troops at this time. ”

After all, Zhu Yijun still believed in Gao Pragmatic, and when he heard this, he slowed down his tone slightly, and frowned: "What do you think?" ”

"Refusing to leave." Gao pragmatically said: "When the emperor looks at this sparse text, he may only see the prevarication, but because the minister has worked in the border area for several years, he can guess the local situation." At present, the situation in Guyuan and other places is probably like this: they are seriously ill, Ordos is unstable, the main battle faction may even have the upper hand, and the officials in Guyuan and other places feel that Xining has nothing to do with them, and once the army leaves, they will definitely not be able to return for a while and a half, and once the Hetao changes, they will be in danger......"

"It's impossible for the army to all go!" Zhu Yijun raised his voice slightly: "Could it be that Gao Guangxian didn't even weigh this point, and couldn't he take all the 60,000 troops to Qinghai?" Or is it that the local officials in Guyuan are greedy for life and afraid of death! ”

Gao pragmatic shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, this is not necessarily greedy for life and afraid of death, they are actually considering it from the official career - most people who are officials feel that more is better than less, so when the Guyuan army gathers, even if the Hetao is in turmoil and the Ordos Department changes hands, it is unlikely that they will go straight to Guyuan, so they don't have to worry about any losses - Emperor, there will be no punishment if they don't suffer losses, why should they take this risk?" They are the officials of Guyuan, not the officials of Xining. ”

Zhu Yijun slapped the table angrily: "Co-author, I, the emperor, should worry about labor all over the world, and these people only care about their own one-third of an acre?" They don't know that they have the world as their own responsibility? Read to the dog! ”

Gao Pragmatic coughed lightly: "In the imperial court, there are still many ...... who take the world as their own responsibility."

"I didn't scold you, I scolded those local officials...... I, I'm scolding the local officials who don't care about their neighbors! ”

It's also difficult to be the emperor, because he thinks about it halfway through the conversation, Gao Pragmatic has also been a magistrate.

Gao Pragmatic knew that he was not scolding himself, and he didn't bother to care about this, so he pulled the conversation back and said: "So the current situation, in the opinion of the minister, it is probably that Gao Guangxian's judgment is a little wrong - he is the governor of the three sides, considering that the Ordos Ministry itself is not wrong, but he is wrong not to know that the affairs of the Ordos Department are not so simple. ”

"How?" Zhu Yijun was patronizing and angry, and he didn't turn his mind around at once.

"If there is chaos in the Ordos Ministry, the most urgent person should be the King of Shunyi." Gao Shishi spread his hands slightly and said: "The strength of Tumut is mainly due to the fact that its headquarters is strong enough, but the Ordos Department is also one of the key factors. Does the emperor still remember why Han Naji came to vote for Daming back then? ”

Zhu Yijun's mind cleared up a little, recalled it, and said: "It's because his grandfather I promised to marry his fiancée to the one in the Ordos Department......"

"It doesn't matter who it is, the important thing is that even I will send the woman who originally planned to marry Hannaji to Ordos because he was worried about the attitude of the Ordos Ministry." Gao pragmatically said: "This shows that even if it is as strong as my answer, I am afraid that the Ordos Ministry will be separated from him." ”

Zhu Yijun suddenly realized, and then became a little nervous, and asked: "Then if the Ordos Ministry is really in chaos, can Tumut subdue them?" ”

Gao pragmatic groaned: "From the perspective of strength alone, it is still possible. However, this also involves the strategic situation: Your Majesty, please see ......" He pointed to the map and said: "The location of the Ordos Department is probably in the southwest of Tumut, and directly north of it is the direct territory of the Shunyi King Hannaji, in other words, if the Ordos Department is really in chaos, as long as it directly sends troops north of the Yellow River, it will be a knife into the abdomen of the Shunyi King." ”

"Well, and then what?" Zhu Yijun frowned and asked, "Didn't you say that Tumut has the ability to subdue them?" ”

"Yes, but once the Tumut army moves west or simply marches south, then Fengzhou Beach will be empty - although the Ordos Department is slightly weaker than Tumut, but the difference is not as big as imagined, in the minister's personal opinion, its strength is about equivalent to about six or seven percent of Tumut's headquarters, so if Tumut wants to subdue Ordos in one fell swoop, he must also attack with all his might.

However, the problem came, the Tumut army attacked with all its might, and the Fengzhou Beach was empty, and if the Tumen suddenly attacked the west at this time, Tumut would face an unfavorable situation of being a wolf and a tiger. And there is an even worse thing, that is, Tumut was originally relying on my Ming, but now my Ming is unfortunately in a situation where I can't send troops to help......"

Zhu Yijun was a little annoyed when he heard this, and said anxiously: "Why did you lose a Xining and make such a big fuss!" ”
