Li Biao had a hunch that something big might happen today. He glanced at Qian Longxi, meaning to act according to the opportunity.
Qian Longxi nodded and whispered: "The Qing army cannot be delayed. Your Majesty must make a decision today."
As the ministers filed in, they were all whispering to each other, and all the cronies were preparing for today's firepower. Now the Qing army's affairs have become the top priority. All factions are paying great attention, and each faction hopes to defeat them in this movement.
Others, strengthen your own side.
If you want to control the direction of the Qing army, you must take charge of this matter.
If you have the same opinion on things but different people take the lead, the final results will definitely be different.
"Quiet!" the censor responsible for inspecting discipline shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty has arrived." As the eunuchs sang loudly, the officials collectively bowed down and shouted long live the mountain.
Chongzhen looked beaming with joy, which was a rare sight. He usually had a straight face, as if all the ministers owed him money.
These ministers are all good at observing words and expressions. Suddenly, there was another buzzing discussion below.
Chongzhen sat down and waved his hand. Cao Huachun, the first eunuch of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, began to read out the northwest battle report.
When I heard that Uncle Dingyuan defeated the Tumut and Alxa coalition forces in one day and captured Guihua City, there was a sudden intake of breath below.
They know very well what the state of Beijing Camp is like. Qiu Baye, who was dragged to Nanyuan by Dingyuan Bo for four months, has changed so much. This is really turning decay into magic.
Li Biao and Qian Longxi looked at each other, their hearts filled with turmoil.
To be honest, they don't want His Majesty to have military power in his hands. They have been planning for so long to ask Yuan Chonghuan to come forward and take down the Governor of Jiliao, and to take the military power from Ji Town, Liaodong Town, Dengzhou, Laizhou, Tianjin, and Dongjiang Town.
Gather together.
However, the Beijing Camp has always been a worry for them. Because this army stationed in the capital is the sphere of influence of the nobles. Now the Lu Party controls the Shandong Guards, and the Jin Party controls Datong, Xuanfu, and the three towns of Shanxi
.However, the situation in Ji Town and Beijing is very complicated.
Li Biao and Qian Longxi looked ugly. What they feared most was an emperor who had a powerful army in his hands. And this army had a total of 80,000 people and 24 regiments and battalions. It seemed that the Southern Zhili faction had to be sent
The peasants who went there took action.
Otherwise, looking at this speed, Jiuyuan and Linhe will only take a few days. If Uncle Dingyuan comes back, the affairs of the Qing army may fall into Uncle Dingyuan's hands. He will definitely be granted the title of Marquis when he comes back.
As the most popular upstart among the nobles, if His Majesty asked him to take charge of the Qing army, everything would be ruined.
After Yang Fan clears the army, the military power will definitely fall into the hands of nobles. Maybe they will take the opportunity to attack Yuan Chonghuan.
Cao Huachun had just finished reading the battle report. The ministers immediately paid homage, sang His Majesty's Divine Martial Arts, recovered his coat, and his achievements were directly matched by Taizu and Chengzu. Chongzhen's face flushed with joy. This was the first major event that made him happy since he ascended the throne.
In any dynasty, an emperor who is able to expand territory is an accomplished emperor. At least the weak emperor cannot hold his head. This can leave a name in history.
However, the warm atmosphere did not last long. A censor from Shanxi Province went out to the class and said: "I impeached Dingyuan Bo Yang Fan. Zhang Shize secretly adapted the civilian men sent from various provinces into regiment training. After investigation, at present, the soldiers sent by various prefectures and counties in Shanxi Province
Nineteen thousand civilians were forcibly left in Guihua City, and they were forcibly reorganized into twelve militia groups together with the 20,000 civilians in southern Zhili."
As soon as these words came out, Li Biao and Qian Longxi were shocked. They didn't know that all the people they sent had been looked down upon by Yang Fan. They only found out about it when people from the Jin Party impeached Yang Fan.
Suddenly, the people below were in an uproar. There is a difference between civil and military affairs. These civilians are under the jurisdiction of local states and counties. What Yang Fan did was tantamount to infringing on the power of civil officials. Moreover, what kind of civilians were these people? They were all secret forces raised by them locally.
Many of these people are bandits, local gangsters, and felons in prison. Because they have taken refuge with local forces, they have been assigned to do dirty work for these factions in various places.
In an instant, the court seemed to explode, and there were sounds of impeachment below.
Chongzhen was originally in a good mood today, but his expression changed at this time. Yang Fan made it very clear in the memorial. It was because of the lack of troops that some auxiliary troops were needed to help defend the city. Unexpectedly, the Jin Party and Donglin reacted so strongly
.
At this time, he also saw that something was wrong.
Chongzhen signaled Cao Huachun to give Yang Fan's memorial to Li Banghua, Minister of War. Li Banghua was also surprised at first as to what Yang Fan was doing. He had a strange relationship with Dong Lin. His teacher was an elder of Dong Lin, but he himself was not a core member.
He didn't know that there was something wrong with the people in southern Zhili.
The more Li Banghua looked at it, the more solemn he looked. After reading the memorial, he returned it to Cao Huachun and coughed. Seeing that the situation became quiet, Li Banghua said: "Uncle Dingyuan did go a bit too far in this matter. But it's a matter of urgency.
Right’s approach.”
When everyone heard what he said, they all looked at him.
"We underestimated the Mongolian alliance before. Now the 30,000 troops of the Seven Tumut tribes in Qinghai have passed through Gansu to rescue and defeat Huang Taiji. The Seven Guards of Guanxi also sent 20,000 troops and are currently outside the Helan Mountains. In western Mo
Among the four Mongolian tribes, the Dzungars currently send 20,000 troops, and the Khoshuote troops send 30,000 troops. The situation of the other two tribes is unknown. The Yarkand Khanate is said to have also sent troops, but the number is unknown. Zhasak Tuhan in Mobei sent 20,000 troops, and the Tang Dynasty
The Nuulianghai people may also send 10,000 troops. I heard that Daza also sent envoys to ask for help from the Chechen Khan, the Buryat people, and even the Jiannu."
Following Li Banghua's introduction, there was a sudden silence. Unexpectedly, the troops sent out this time stirred up a hornet's nest. The Mongols were anxious. It seemed that the Beijing camp was probably going to be delayed. Yang Fan was impatient, so he ignored it and started
He has captured a strong man. His troops are seriously insufficient. Now he is surrounded by enemies from all sides. After all, the Ordos are still threatening him in the south.
Chongzhen coughed and said: "Uncle Dingyuan did not consider this matter, but he will not accept the emperor's orders. Everyone understands the principle of obeying authority in emergencies." Of course Chongzhen wanted to support Yang Fan, joking,
If we don't use these civilian workers, we have to use the capital camp to fill it in.
He spent so much money on Jingying. He would rather spend it on team training than on Jingying.
"In this matter, Yang Fan and Zhang Shize will be fined for one year. I will also issue an order to reprimand them. It will not be an example next time." Chongzhen settled the matter in one sentence.
However, the Jin Party and Dong Lin were anxious. They were not fools either. Yang Fan reorganized their people into regiment training, most likely to use them as cannon fodder. Suddenly, there was another noise.
