Chapter 503 Xuanwei Bo Demin's Delight (4)
The population gap in Liaodong is not something that can be satisfied with just 25,000 people. Zhu Cilang was also inspired by the example of the collapse of the Wu army. It seems that no matter which era, once the people's hearts are dispersed, the team will be difficult to lead.
The next thing to move is the army stationed in Liu Liangzuo, Shou County.
Liu Liangzuo was under Li Zicheng's command in his early years, but later he was captured by Cao Bianjiao and surrendered to the officers and soldiers. Because he often rode a flower horse, he was known as Huama Liu. In the original historical time and space, after Zuo Liangyu promoted his troops eastward, he hurriedly surrendered to the Qing army without fighting with Zuo Liangyu. Later, he attacked Jiangyin and was sentenced by Yan Yingyuan: "The Ming Dynasty had surrendered generals, but no surrender history" was firmly nailed to the pillar of shame in history.
It was not easy for Zhu Cilang to mobilize him, because the Liu army did not send capable instructors, and the mountain division was also exterminated Zuozhen riots in Huguang. The Jianghuai area was a power vacuum zone of the East Palace system, but it was also a key node for national taxation and transportation. If the Liu army caused chaos, the country would definitely suffer a lot.
Now Liu's army claims to be 100,000 yuan. Apart from the empty salary, the 30,000 to 50,000 yuan under his command still has combat power. If these people say they want to enrich the Northeast, both Xiao Donglou and Chen De will rush to ask for it.
Zhu Cixuan's method was very simple. He first gave Liu Liangzuo a position as the deputy governor, and let him go to Beijing to receive office. Then he left him in Beijing, and then sent a trainer and staff officer to slowly divide his troops, and finally put him in vain and dragged his troops to Liaodong or Lushun, settle down there, and consolidate border defense.
Facts have proved that Liu Liangzuo is a very eye-catching person. This unlucky person who has never read books is more able to change his mind than those literati who are well-read in poetry and books, and has no psychological pressure, and does not care about face.
After Liu Liangzuo entered the capital, he found that his "General Governor" was a short position, without any explanation of his position, and he already knew what the Crown Prince meant. He quickly put his position on the right hand and said that his talent could not be the General Governor. He also suffered from illness and pain in fighting for the country all year round. In addition, he had a younger brother named Liu Liangchen, who ruined his family and was determined to follow the Tartars. He had no face to see anyone, so he begged the Ministry of War to allow him to get rid of his armor and return to the field. It was his last wish to let his son enter martial arts.
After Sun Chuanting personally met Liu Liangzuo, he determined that he was not a test of the court, so he focused on appeasement first, and at the same time, he sent back the news that Liu Liangzuo was about to be discharged from the army. When the generals of the central army received this news, they naturally had to find a way out for themselves. In this way, the morale of the army was naturally loose, and even if Liu Liangzuo regretted it, it would be too late.
The way forward for these generals is simple: either surrender to His Royal Highness, wear new clothes, and walk a new path. There may not be any problems in the next few decades. However, this road is the most difficult to walk at the beginning. Not only do you have to count the number of troops, but you have to hear that all the benefits will be gone in the future, but you will also be constrained by the military supervisor, the Psychic painting and the military judges.
The second way is to learn from Liu Liangzuo, the master of the school, so he simply asked to get rid of his family and return to the land. Now the land price in An (Qing) and Hui (Zhou) is cheap, and the best paddy fields are only one or two acres. In recent years, I have been secretly requested in the army. It is not a problem to buy a thousand acres of land. It is better to be a landlord in the second half of my life. It is better than anything else. But in this way, my whole body will end. There will be no chance to call the wind and rain in the future. At most, I will be a gentry. Although it is stable, I always feel a little down.
The third road is a dangerous road. I simply wrote to the court and took the troops to Liaodong, and completed the best intentions. I could also maintain my strength. Even if I reclaimed wasteland in Liaodong in the future, that large area would still be my own territory. Maybe I could really just gossip and become a local dominant!
Character determines destiny, and different candidates have different paths.
Very few people really want to stay in the army to make a name for themselves. There are very few people who are willing to lead troops to Liaodong, but most of them want to be placed on the spot are occupied. Most of these military generals are from Shanxi and Shaanxi. Compared with their own bitter cold, drought and barren, the Yangtze River is like a fairyland in Tianfu, so they naturally don’t want to go back and suffer poverty.
Sun Chuanting was also satisfied with the result. After making preparations, he submitted a memorial in the name of the Ministry of War, successfully passed the cabinet's ticket and sent it to Zhu Cixuan.
Zhu Cilang was busy day and night about internal affairs. After seeing this memorial, he quickly wrote: "Good. Continue." He sent a military department to the supervisor.
After the military department is returned to its hometown, a copy will naturally be sent back to the department and handed over to the official. Every five days, the military department staff will send the undergraduate case files to the cabinet for filing, and also supervise the progress of the ministry's handling. After the project is completely completed, all case files should be left in the cabinet, and the one in the department staff will be burned and cancelled after verification.
Now Liukelang is like a young wife suppressed by a bad mother-in-law. She is no longer as arrogant as she was back then. Although she is still cold to the ministry, she has finally restrained her. This is the "Science and Instrument" power left by her ancestors, but she does not say that it cannot be removed.
When he was in Shandong, in order to avoid disputes and sue, Zhu Cixuan limited the authority of the six departments to matters involving "money and grain", and could only review the legality of the various departments, but not the rationality. In this way, the six departments had almost nothing to do and their authority was greatly reduced.
Now that we have returned to Beijing and the country has been on track, Zhu Cixuan has gradually let go of the shackles on the neck of the six departments, allowing them to perform their duties as subjects again, supervise the work progress of the department - including the work discipline of officials coming late and leaving early. To a certain extent, the six departments are even allowed to question the "reasonability" of the matters and decision-making of the department, and write a report to the Ministry of Transport.
As for the most important power of "refutation", Zhu Cilang was unwilling to let go, and no one in the Six Chronicles dared to ask for it at this time.
When he thought that what he wanted to do was repeatedly pushed back by a group of radical young people, he could only stare at him... Who would be such an emperor? From this point of view, Zhu Cixuan can be regarded as a new strengthening of the imperial power and pushing the Ming Dynasty's dictatorship to a new one.
Sun Chuanting was indeed a person who was in charge. After dealing with Liu Liangzuo, he sent a doctor and led more than ten people to drive south to Zhejiang to explore Fang Guoan's foundation. Fang Guoan was at this time with troops from Zhejiang, and his military discipline was not in order, and the people in Zhejiang suffered greatly. However, as in the Xiafu Town today, his military strength was the largest, and he was known as a 100,000 troops on weekdays, so he could not be dealt with accidentally.
...
"Big Father, grandson pays homage to Dafa and sees that his father is healthy and strong, his grandson feels very comforted." Liao Xing bowed his hands, shook his head, took a step forward, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed.
Mr. Liao was so happy: After years of not seeing each other, this kid has learned to call him "Big Father" in a literary way. He pretended to be serious and stepped forward to support his grandson: "You are in your official uniform, so it is not convenient for you to give this great gift."
Liao Xing, who was wearing a fourth-rank official, originally had this purpose, and was secondly to show his might in front of his neighbors. At present, the students and officials in the family also came forward to greet him and surrounded Liao Xing in the middle like stars surround the moon.
Mr. Liao grabbed his grandson's hand and said, "Why are you back when you have time this year?"
"Now officials have a rest and annual leave. The grandson joined the officialdom in the 16th year of Chongzhen. The second year is five-day annual leave, and then one more day will be added every year, which will be exactly seven days this year. It will be almost seven or eight days after returning from Kaifeng. It is just the time to go home to worship ancestors during the Winter Solstice." Liao Xingdao.
Mr. Liao nodded, turned his head and asked, "You won't go back to Kaifeng?"
"My grandson was ordered to go to Beijing to resume his posts, and then went directly to Beijing from Jinan." Liao Xingdao.
After Liao Xing became the magistrate of Pingdu Prefecture, the Liao family moved from Henan to Jinan. This is also believed that Liao Xing would not be the magistrate for a long time, and would mostly serve the emperor. Later, Liao Xing became the magistrate of Kaifeng, and several juniors of the Liao family took the diploma and were requisitioned by Jinan Prefecture to work as clerks in the official office, so the family simply took root in Jinan.
Last year, the scene of worshiping ancestors in the Winter Solstice was not very big. This year, the ancestral hall was built, and the genealogy was also continued with the hometown of Luoyang. The Liao family officially scattered its branches and leaves in Shandong, so the scene of worshiping ancestors in the Winter Solstice was quite big.
Anyone who has an official position in a family must come back to support the scene at this time. Liao Xing usually has two or five days of 5 days of vain, and he still understands the issue of major issues. So he took seven days of annual leave and came out of Kaifeng seven days in advance. He happened to go on the way to Jinan for the Winter Solstice Festival, and then set off for Beijing after worshiping ancestors, without delaying both ends.
Grandpa Liao took his grandson's hand into the inner room, and looked at the grown-up grandson and laughed. The grandson also smiled foolishly. The old and the young smiled for a long time before they could speak well.
"You are the most successful deal in my life, grandpa." Old Master Liao shook his head with relief, touched Yun Yan on his grandson's chest to replenish his clothes, and cried with joy: "My Liao family has finally made a promising career, and finally can shine with their families."
"Grandpa, where am I? It's not a big deal!" Without outsiders present, Liao Xing stopped pretending and laughed: "After going to Beijing to resign, it may not be of great use."
"Oh? But what news?" The old man leaned forward, with a teardrop on his face.
Liao Xing deliberately kept it a secret for a while and said with a smile: "The people from the Ministry of Personnel Examination Department probably hinted at me, wanting to see if I am willing to go to Zhejiang to supervise the political education or to participate in politics in Huguang."
"That's good!" Mr. Liao smiled: "All local officials are here!"
"But there is also news from the Ministry of Works that said Mr. Jiang wanted me to join the Ministry and be a minister, who was responsible for the management of the Yellow River in Henan." Liao Xing said proudly: "Hehe, it's annoying that he is too capable and has too good political achievements."
"This is not good." Mr. Liao shook his head and said, "The river workers are the most troublesome. They are so fat that they are so fat that they will be ruined if something happens. And I also see that it is not easy to take advantage of the situation in this highness."
"If we have a family business, the money to remove the two money is not worth it." Liao Xing himself knew very well and said, "The grandson wants to go to Zhejiang to governors of the academic affairs department."
Mr. Liao nodded and said, "Although the power is not as good as Huguang's participation in politics, I would like to recommend a student and get some promising students, and there will be a helping hand in the court in the future."
"That's going to be miserable!" Liao Xing shouted exaggeratedly.
Mr. Liao was so scared that he leaned back and his beard started to blow. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
