Chapter 692: Loyalty and treachery are only in a thought

As long as he can resolve this incident and reduce his political risks, Wang Xun does not want to offend the local strong military leaders, let alone the characters who can defeat Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong. He didn't care about Xu Hongji's obvious partiality www.biquge.info the pen, Fun Pavilion, anyway, someone would take the blame, and nodded: "Wei Guogong is right, General Xia took action and resolved Chang Kun's conspiracy, not only has no fault, but also has merit, and these officials will also be written into the compromise." ”

This is a kind of lying with eyes open, but Wang Xun's face does not change and his heart does not beat when he speaks, as if he is stating a certain fact, which is also one of the basic qualities of officials, and it is not easy for anyone who can sit in the position of secretary of the military department.

Xia Nan is not stupid, he knows how to repay the peach, he said righteously: "The crimes of Chang Kun are all the credit of Wei Guogong and Lord Wang, I am just an outsider, but it just happened to be a coincidence, how dare I be greedy?" ”

Wang Xun and Xu Hongji looked at each other and smiled, and it was a pleasure to talk to smart people. In this way, not only did the crisis be successfully resolved, but also a bad thing turned into a good thing. As for the unlucky Chang Kun, he was already a dead man in their eyes, and they didn't bother to care about him. Wang Xun ordered him to take him back to the eunuch's mansion on the left and right, and then send troops to guard it, and no one was allowed to enter or leave, and the power that originally belonged to the eunuch was exercised by the military department and the Guogong Mansion before the holy decree of Chang Kun came down.

With the endorsement of the two giants, Xia Nan's forcible entry into the city will be over, and as for the conflict with the Shenji Battalion, all the responsibility will be put on Chang Kun. Xia Nan is very satisfied with this kind of disposal, and it feels good that someone has wiped her ass when she gets into trouble. There was only one thing left for him to care about, where was Joan's navy stationed?

Xu Hongji patted his chest: "This matter is on me, whether it is the Chihe Camp in the north of the city, or the Shenji Camp and Zhenwu Camp in the south of the city, you can pick whatever you want, and if you fancy that place, I will vacate the place." ”

Xia Nanqian said: "Don't dare to disturb the brothers in Jingying, as long as there is a place, it will be done, and it will be arranged by Wei Guogong." ”

Xu Hongji blew his beard and glared and said: "What bother, you have beaten away the rogues and returned triumphantly, you deserve to be treated." Chang Kun's saying is true, the group of guys in the Shenji Camp are a group of waste, and they can't even hold a stick of incense under your hands. In my opinion, let them make room for you to live in. ”

"Hehe, the Shenji Battalion still has strength, there is a degree of advance and retreat, it comes and goes like the wind, we are lucky to win." Xia Nan snorted, as for whether coming and going like the wind was an allusion to the astonishing speed when escaping, it is unknown.

Xu Hongji didn't get on the horse, but affectionately took Xia Nan's hand and walked forward together, whispering as he walked: "Don't talk about these ruined things." That one...... Brother has a reluctant request, those firearms of yours are very different from the bird guns of the Shenji Battalion, my brother is hot, can you sell some to my brother and use them to practice the pro-army ...... in the house?"

Xia Nan quietly withdrew his hand and replied, "Wei Guo is open, how can he sell words?" I'll have someone send 200 strokes to the house! ”

Xu Hongji grinned: "My brother is a cheerful person, and he also stands out in wars, I appreciate you, in the future, we won't call each other official titles, just call each other brothers!" After Nanjing, if you have something, you will find my brother, there are not many things here that my brother can't do! Although the two are very different from each other in terms of titles, in terms of official positions, one is in charge of the Grand Governor of Nanjing Metropolitan Mansion as a duke, and the other is the Chief Military Officer and the Right Governor of the Metropolitan Office of the Five Armies in Beijing. The two brothers are commensurate and can barely be said,

Xia Nan smiled slightly: "Then thank my brother first." "Many friends and many roads, Wei Guogong, as the No. 1 noble in Nanjing, is also the garrison of Nanjing, there is no harm in befriending him, these two hundred Qionghai-style rifles are worth the price.

After Wang Xun saw the two of them go away, he restrained the smile on his face, turned back to the sedan chair, and said in a deep voice: "Go back to the yamen of the military department." ”

Back at the yamen, Wang Xun went straight to the study and picked up a pen to write a recital. Although today's incident ended successfully, after all, it refers to the deer as a horse, reversing black and white, and there are many loopholes. As long as the emperor believes that Chang Kun is a slave who uses his power to loot huge sums of money privately, and uses the Beijing camp without authorization for personal grievances, it is useless for Chang Kun to explain afterwards.

The first half of the twist and turn is basically what Wang Xun said to Xu Hongji and Xia Nan, putting all the blame on Chang Kun, and the three of them are not only without fault, but also meritorious. It's just that when he wrote the evaluation part about Xia Nan and Qiong Navy at the end, Wang Xun temporarily stopped writing and groaned.

Today's Qiong Haijun's amazing performance and Xia Nan's words and deeds were all seen by Wang Xun. The combat effectiveness of the Qiong Navy is obvious to all, if the defeat of the combined forces of Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong has yet to be confirmed, then the easy defeat of the Shenji Battalion is undisputed. Originally, the Ming army in Guannai had been weak for a long time, and everyone should be happy that such a strong army appeared, and there was no need to rely too much on the border army represented by the Guanning army, but Wang Xuan, the old Jianghu, still saw the problem, that is, Xia Nan, the general soldier who commanded this army.

If you change to other generals, you are blocked outside the city by Chang Kun's envoys, even if you feel aggrieved, at most you will complain to your superiors, and then go around the city, and never dare to break into Nanjing City - this is the capital of the Ming Dynasty, not other ordinary state capitals. And Xia Nan didn't seem to have thought about the political consequences at all, and entered the city brazenly, and his first reaction when he encountered obstacles was to start fighting, completely ignoring himself as an officer and soldier of the imperial court, and he had no concept of superiority and inferiority. Although Chang Kun was later killed as a scapegoat, the crisis was resolved, and Xia Nan's performance also changed one hundred and eighty degrees afterwards, giving each other a step, but in addition to showing that he can bend and stretch, handle things smoothly and sophisticated, and have strong adaptability, it does not prove that he is a military general loyal to the imperial court.

Imagine, if there was no Chang Kun's appearance, would it be the Chihe Battalion and the Zhenwu Battalion that would have started the war with the Qiong Navy, not the Shenji Battalion? And the fate of Wang Xun and Xu Hongji is not necessarily much better than Chang Kun. Thinking of this, Wang Xun felt extremely frightened.

After a long time, he finally thought of the wording, picked up the pen and wrote: "...... The combat power of the Qiong Navy is extraordinary, there is a record of defeat in the past, and now there is the courage to sweep the Shenji Battalion, and the court has such a strong army, which is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty and the luck of His Majesty. However, in the summer, Nan Ji was undisciplined and scheming, loyal and traitorous only in one thought, and if he entered, he was the pillar of the country, and if he retreated, he was a hero in troubled times. The ministers have the courage to speak, they can be summoned to Beijing, given an idle position, promoted and surrendered secretly, and relieved of military power, then the Qiong Navy can be completely used by the imperial court, and if it is properly trained, it can be one of the few strong armies in the Ming Dynasty. But this move is quite risky, if you are not careful, you will force Xia Nan to rebel, and it will be a trouble for the court's henchmen, and the disaster is far worse than Zhang Xianzhong and others, I hope Your Majesty will see it. ”
