Chapter 156: Three levels in a row
That night, Sun Chengzong's camp also sent many recitals to the Beijing Division, and the civil and military generals who had the authority to directly listen to the heavens all wrote the recitals, which was their right and their obligation.
Imperial history, to the matter usually need to play things, now that there is such a big thing, the civil officials and military generals present do not play the book, at least it is negligent government, and to investigate it is dereliction of duty.
The next day, the six-hundred-mile expedited was sent to the Forbidden City, and the diligent emperor certainly wouldn't let go of any six-hundred-mile expedited recital, and his face turned pale with anger just after reading the two secret recitals.
Chongzhen muttered: "Vertical son dare! Lawlessness. ”
Wang Chengen, who was standing on the side, heard the emperor's anger, and shrunk his neck in fright, and he didn't even dare to come out.
Chongzhen pressed the anger in his heart, looked at the recitals sent one by one, and finally carefully read the recitals of Zheng Guochang and Qin Liangyu three times, thoughtfully, and his emotions slowly calmed down.
For the sake of safety, he turned out Ma Shilong's recital and looked at it carefully, and had a scale in his heart.
The appearance of the "Red Banner Army" in front of Chengtian Gate on that day came into mind, and those fierce knight emperors have not forgotten it to this day. He said to himself, "Checks and balances are very important! The 'Red Banner Army' is still too few, and now it is not enough to balance Liaozhen. ”
He looked at Wang Chengen and said, "Wang Companion, there are only more than 1,000 people in the Yongping garrison, and they dare to be disrespectful to Zu Shaobao, what if there are thousands of troops under his command in the future?" Can I still entrust him with the task? ”
How smart Wang Chengen was, how could he dare to answer such a keen question, he immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the slave and maid dare not discuss the government in vain. ”
Chongzhen urgently needed someone to discuss, and he lost his sense of proportion for a while, and actually asked Wang Chengen's opinion, he smiled and stopped talking.
The next day, Chongzhen immediately convened the important ministers platform to discuss the matter, and the ministers and the six Shangshu had already learned about the conflict between the "Red Flag Army" and Liaozhen, of course, there were manpower to support Liaozhen, after all, they shared a lot of Liaozhen.
There are also people who think that Liaozhen deserves to be taught a lesson, and most of them are ministers who have no or disdain to get a piece of the Liao's salary, and Wen Tiren, Liang Tingdong, and so on are among the representatives.
The Son of Heaven spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday at noon, there was a conflict between the Yongping garrison camp and Liaozhen, and there was a big fight, and hundreds of soldiers died, how should this matter be handled?" ”
Liang Tingdong, who had already had a draft, immediately played: "It is indeed biased that Huang Han is young and rash in handling things, but there is a reason for it, and his loyalty and courage are commendable and he is not afraid of power. Liaozhen Jiaozong is now a big tail, and there are very few people who dare to look at Zu Shaobao coldly. ”
Chongzhen said silently: "Isn't it just a cross-eyebrow and a cold eye? He actually dared to meet each other in battle, and it was a fact that Liao Zhen folded a deputy general! ”
Liang Tingdong said: "No, no, last year, Zu Shaobao was coerced by his subordinates and ran out of Shanhaiguan unconsciously, which shows how confused this person is." This year, Vice General Zu also made a mistake and was accidentally attacked by the Jiannu sentry horse and lost his life. The Overseer has already explained the situation. ”
Liang Tingdong's words were more funny, if these important ministers had not been cultivated, I am afraid they would not be able to hold back their laughter.
But everyone understood the words, which caused Chongzhen and many ministers to think deeply, and what Zu Dashou did came to everyone's mind one by one.
At the end of last year, the Eastern slave soldiers came to the city, and the capital was in a panic, just when the imperial court needed elite soldiers to serve the dead, Zu Dashou ran away with the one or two thousand Guan Ning troops that the court relied on the most, so even the officials who shared the salary could not accept it.
At this time, Liang Tingdong intentionally or unintentionally brought up the old things, which naturally pushed Zu Dashou to the opposite side of the imperial court.
Wen Tiren, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, came out and said: "Your Majesty, under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister." The minister thought that Zu Dashou was indeed confused, and after this lesson, he must have been more sober.
Inspector Sun is always spicy in dealing with things. It is not appropriate to investigate this matter deeply, and His Majesty may issue an order to punish Huang Garrison and punish him accordingly, but he will not be spared if he commits another offense. ”
Zhou Yanru, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, came out of the class and said: "The minister seconded the proposal. It is not uncommon for friendly forces to be indistinguishable from each other when an incident occurs suddenly, and it is not uncommon for them to fight in a chaotic battle. When the country employs people, Inspector Sun handles it in this way because he attaches importance to national affairs and is very good. As for how to deal with Huang Shoubei, the minister thought that it was most appropriate to demote and retain. ”
Chongzhen thought for a moment and said: "Huang Hanmu has no respect for the long and will be fined for one year, and he will be demoted three levels in a row to set an example. The matter is no longer discussed. ”
Many ministers understood the emperor's attitude, although they only punished Huang Han alone, but the intention of favoritism was obvious, after all, the losses of the "Red Banner Army" were limited.
Although Huang Han has changed from the third product to the fourth product, what does this have to do with it? He is still a Yongping garrison, and he is also the chief general of the 'Red Banner Army'.
The ancestor of the family died of a deputy general's cousin, and one hundred and ten families lost a lot of money, and the face of the family was completely lost.
Wen Tiren and Liang Tingdong knew more clearly the emperor's attitude towards Liaozhen, and understood that in the future, the strength of Zu Dashou should be able to cater to the holy will.
The top priority of the imperial court is to regain the lost territory, and the efficiency of handling military affairs at this time is quite high, and the punishment of Huang Han on the third day will arrive, and it is only a one-year demotion to cause such a big disaster, which shows how partial the emperor is to the "Red Banner Army".
Qin Liangyu and Zheng Guochang were relieved to see the holy decree, they really didn't want to see Tiqi come to arrest Huang Han, now that the dust has settled, the catastrophe of the conflict with Liaozhen has finally turned the page.
Zheng Guochang had already figured out the attitude of the Son of Heaven towards Liaozhen, and even Qin Liangyu knew it.
Huang Han felt that deducting wages and demoting grades were superficial articles, and the vested interests of the "Red Banner Army" were not harmed in the slightest.
When Inspector Sun assigned the task, he did not make it clear that Zheng Guochang's men and horses were the main attack, after all, Zheng Guochang's men and horses were less than half of the main force, and the city of Yongping Mansion was a big city, with high walls and thick walls, and it seemed to be difficult to attack without artillery.
Sun Chengzong did not demand to seize the city in one fell swoop, but only asked Zheng Guochang to do when the main force attacked Luanzhou, and the Houjin army garrisoned by Yongping must not be fully helped.
On 10 May, the White Pole Army, the Sichuan Army, the "Red Banner Army," and the 5,000 men and horses originally stationed in Fengrun County were all dispatched, and the garrison was moved to Shaheyi to approach Yongping Fucheng, with a total number of 20,000.
All the existing men and horses of the "Red Banner Army" went to Shaheyi, and the more than 400 infantry who were originally stationed in the shelter were led by Huang Yong to enter Kaiping Town.
All the people in the shelter have descended the mountain, most of them have followed Huang Yong to settle in Kaiping, and a small number of people have already taken the risk to tend to their fields.
The harvest is very big in the eyes of the common people who dig in the soil, they not only have to sweat and work like rain, but also always guard against the shooting of the stragglers of the Houjin army.
