Chapter 508: It's all human spirits
After Chen Xin finished the incense, he bowed to Mao Wenlong to express his gratitude for saving the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Liaodong.
After a very simple worship, Chen Xin came to the courtyard on the mountainside under the guidance of the person in charge of the clothed mound, and went directly to the main courtyard.
Chen Xin naturally sat on the main seat, and then, several military leaders of Dongjiang Town came in again to make a formal visit.
Of course, this time, because they were waiting outside the door, they had already been trained by the Privy Council secretary next to Chen Xin, so they did not kneel down in a panic.
This is next to the mound of clothes, used to house the temporary residence of the passers-by, there are no relevant service personnel at all, and the adjutant ran over to make tea for everyone.
Mao Chengzuo, as well as Shang Kexi, who made Chen Xin feel very familiar, were extremely respectful.
Mao Chenglu looks tall and big, almost the same height as Chen Xin, but if you compare it horizontally, Mao Chengzuo's size is at least one lap bigger.
He is Mao Wenlong's own nephew, even if Mao Wenlong has received countless righteous sons in his life, he Mao Chengzuo is also the most trusted cronies of Mao Wenlong, and let him be responsible for leading Mao Wenlong's family team.
Therefore, Mao Chengzuo himself has always regarded himself as the orthodox heir of Dongjiang Town after Mao Wenlong was beheaded.
He was not accustomed to the surrender faction of Houjin Surrender, nor was he accustomed to the airborne officers like Huang Long, who were sent by the Liaodong Governor.
Compared with the officers of those chaotic factions, Mao Chengzuo still prefers the people of Mao Wenlong's adopted faction.
During the Apocalypse of the Ming Dynasty (that is, during the Later Jin Heavenly Mandate), these people followed Mao Wenlong to fight guerrillas everywhere on the Liaodong Peninsula, and they have always lived and died together.
As the commander of the most elite family team under Mao Wenlong, Mao Chengzuo and Mao Wenlong's Yizi have a very high degree of mutual recognition.
This is the most important reason why Mao Chengzuo participated in the rebellion with Kong Youde and others in the original history.
Now, on the Korean Peninsula and the coast of Denglai, the power of the Chen Shin faction has suddenly emerged, and it has the most powerful power in the entire East Asian seas.
In addition, the Huaxia Navy also continued to attack the Houjin forces in the surrounding areas, so that Mao Chengzuo's subordinates, who lived on the island, had no chance to rebel in Shandong.
Although Mao Chengzuo's fate has been changed, Mao Chengzuo's resentment towards Ming Court has not been eliminated for many years.
After Yuan Chonghuan was executed, Mao Chengzuo also asked his officers to submit a letter to the Ming court, asking for the rehabilitation of Mao Wenlong and Mao Marshal and the restoration of the relevant reputation.
But in order to maintain the face of the Ming Court and himself, Emperor Chongzhen did not agree to this request, but only agreed to let Mao Wenlong's bones be transported back to his hometown and buried on the edge of the West Lake.
However, in Chen Xin's view, this way of dealing with it is obviously an extremely comparative decision, and it is also very lacking in practical significance, because the grievances of all the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Dongjiang Town from top to bottom have not been eliminated at all.
From this point of view, Emperor Chongzhen's handling methods are very immature. From a political point of view, the best way to deal with it at that time was to put all the blame on the military department secretary at that time.
It would be good if the secretary of the military department who knew everything, but didn't do anything, was charged with a related crime, and then it would be logical to rehabilitate Mao Wenlong.
If you do this, you will receive the military heart of the soldiers and horses in Dongjiang Town, and Chongzhen himself will not suffer losses as the emperor's dignity.
It's a pity that the idea of emphasizing literature over military force in the Ming Court, as well as the immaturity of Chongzhen himself, has turned an easily solvable problem into a big problem. Thus planting the seeds of hidden dangers in the follow-up chaos in Dongjiang Town.
After that, conflicts within Dongjiang Town, or between them and other military towns and regions in the outside world, happened one after another.
This made Mao Chengzuo's resentment towards Ming Court deeper and deeper, and what he especially hated was those outsiders who messed around in Dongjiang Town like Huang Long.
Mao Chengzuo thought that Ming Ting suddenly sent these people into the Dongjiang Town system from outside, which was ill-intentioned, and the Liaodong Governor wanted to use these people to destroy the army of Dongjiang Town, which his uncle had worked hard to build all his life.
In the past two years, there have been many rebellions, which also gave Mao Chengzuo a very bad inspiration, and later Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng and others launched a rebellion on the Shandong Peninsula, and Mao Chengzuo thought that this was a very legitimate thing.
It's a pity that these soldiers and horses of Dongjiang Town are different from Kong Youde and other soldiers and horses who were pulled away by the governor of Shandong, and they are still staying on various islands. When Shandong was in chaos, the Huaxia Navy immediately blocked the sea off Shandong, recruited a large number of refugees, and intercepted the careerists in Dongjiang Town. This prevented them from participating in the Shandong Rebellion as they did historically.
The most tricky thing for Mao Chengzuo was that later, the Huaxia Navy, together with the Marine Corps, quickly defeated Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng, who ran to various islands to win over their former colleagues in the army.
Even in the end, the Huaxia army actually surrendered the Ming army in the Lushun area and occupied the southern city of Lushun.
This series of operations of the Huaxia Army made Mao Chengzuo extremely panicked at that time, and it was not until the Huaxia Foreign Ministry sent someone to send him a message with the intention of appeasing him, and Mao Chengzuo was a little calm.
When he came to Huaxia to accept the appointment at the beginning of the year, Chen Xin was busy dealing with it and did not see him, only Song Wenxian came to receive him, and later Geng Zhongming also came with a letter, so he was not worried about the court dealing with him.
???? Chen Xin slowly retracted his thoughts and smiled at the few people in front of him and said, "Several generals have made meritorious contributions in this Fuzhou campaign, this time to attack Liaodong, I heard that everyone has captured some Tartar heads, this king heard about paper paste, and he is also very happy for several generals, but I don't know if it went well on the way to this raid?" Did you run into any trouble? ”
Mao Chengzuo was not stunned by the sudden incident this time as before, and after being mentally prepared, he immediately bent down and said to himself respectfully.
"The ministers thanked the soldiers under his command for their concern, this time it was really thanks to the main force of our army to attack Fuzhou City, so that most of the Tartars in southern Liaoning went to Fuzhou City.
Therefore, on the way to the raid, there were very few opportunities for the minister to even encounter the Houjin Tartars to fight, and the ministers broke through two forts along the way, and the real Tartars were at least fifty people who were killed.
Since Mao Dashuai was unjustly killed by the hateful Ming Court and the criminal governor Yuan Chonghuan, the minister has really not had such a comfortable day of chopping off the head of a tartar for a long, long time.
The minister is here, hundreds of people from the Mao family, as well as the whole of Dongjiang Town, once again thank the king for everything he has done for the marshal. ”
