The 163rd chapter layout of Liaodong (2)
"Wen Qing, come and sit."
Emperor Chongzhen stretched out his hand to signal, smiled slightly and said: "Some of what you have mentioned are things I have already thought about, and some are still under consideration.
I have called you here this time because there are a few things I want Wen Qing to do well, so that the Ming Dynasty can be in a relatively stable situation in Liaodong."
If you want to remove Liu Xingzuo as the chief military officer of Dongjiang Town and realize your layout of the Liaodong front line, you don't need to simply promote Liu Xingzuo.
What Emperor Chongzhen wanted was to create chaos in the Liaodong area, but this "chaos" plan simply relied on Dongjiang Town, which was definitely not enough.
Looking at the problem from a realistic perspective, Dongjiang Town is, after all, an island isolated outside Liaodong, but this island has a unique location and a relatively large area.
However, if we want Dongjiang Town to achieve the strategic positioning of the advance base for conquering Liaodong, it must be inseparable from Denglai's support.
At the same time, it was decided to launch a naval raid on southern Liaoning. If we could get the coordinated operations of the Denglai Navy, we could have the effect of one plus one being greater than two.
Therefore, the position of Governor Denglai must be replaced. At least the new Governor Denglai will not discriminate against Dongjiang Town in his heart, and he can cooperate with Sun Chengzong who is out of town in Liaodong.
Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen wanted to ask Sun Yuanhua, who had stayed in the former Liao Dynasty, to serve as governor of Denglai to effectively cooperate with Dongjiang Town and provide military supplies to Liu Xingzuo's troops.
However, considering the big game of Liaodong, Sun Yuanhua alone cannot support it. Even if he transfers Chen Jisheng, Mao Chenglu, Kong Youde and other Mao Wenlong's old troops to the capital, the situation in Shandong will not be stable if it cannot be stabilized.
Play a positive role in Liaodong.
Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen thought of another person, who served as the governor of Denglai during the Tianqi Dynasty, effectively cooperated with Sun Chengzong's strategy in Liaodong, and was related to Liu Xingzuo, and that was Yuan Keli, who was idle at home.
When Wen Tiren listened to what Emperor Chongzhen said, he felt panic in his heart and surprise in his brows. He might not be able to withstand so many people being moved at once.
"Wen Qing, I will leave the matter of promoting Liu Xingzuo to Wang Qing and Li Qing." Looking at the shocked Wen Tiren, Emperor Chongzhen tapped the dragon case with his fingers, and said with a slight smile: "But this Governor Denglai,
Regarding the governorship of Shandong, I still need you to share my worries.
I don’t care about the process, only the result. If Wen Qing can accomplish this, I will leave the position of Second Assistant to the Cabinet for Wen Qing. Will Wen Qing share my worries?"
The original intention of establishing the Military Aircraft Department was to check and balance the cabinet and to seize military command power, so as to facilitate the response to wars inside and outside the Ming Dynasty without getting caught up in the turmoil.
But this does not mean that Emperor Chongzhen should ignore the existence of the cabinet. He did want to reverse the political ecology of "the noble man and the lowly man", but he never thought of overcorrecting.
The current political ecology that promotes top-level military and political checks and balances is to better govern the Ming Dynasty. When the situation becomes clear in the future, in addition to military and political affairs, the judiciary must also become independent.
If you want to solve the corruption of officials and strictly enforce the Ming Dynasty's laws and regulations, the status of the Ministry of Punishment must be improved. However, if you want to promote this, it will be a long time later.
Looking at Wen Tiren who was deep in thought, Emperor Chongzhen was not in a hurry. After all, this matter was easy to say but somewhat difficult to do.
Even if it was Wen Tiren, he still had to weigh the pros and cons. If he really expressed his attitude too early, Emperor Chongzhen would be suspicious.
Wen Tiren, who hesitated again and again, stood up, respectfully raised his hands to Emperor Chongzhen and said, "I... am willing to share your worries for Your Majesty."
"Okay, Wen Qing is worthy of being the great Ming Dynasty's brawn, and worthy of being mine."
Emperor Chongzhen saw this and said with a smile: "In this case, Wen Qing will go down and think carefully about how to implement this matter as soon as possible. I will wait for the good news."
As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, you cannot rush ahead in everything. You must know how to weigh the pros and cons, and how to take advantage of the contradictions between the DPRK and China.
The result of a simple and crude governance style is that the courtiers have no interest in political affairs, and are preoccupied with trying to figure out the holy will, and fall into the vicious circle of political intrigues.
Governing a country is like cooking small delicacies. When should each dish be put into the pot, and whether the heat should be high or low, these are all very particular. If you just do it blindly and blindly, it is just a pot of random stew.
Seeing Wen Tiren leaving with his thoughts on his mind, Emperor Chongzhen stood up, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and walked towards the place where the map was hung.
'If these plans of mine can be completed one by one, then with Liu Xingzuo in Dongjiang Town, Sun Yuanhua in Denglai, Yuan Keli in Shandong, Sun Chengzong in Liaodong, plus Lu Xiangsheng, the strategic defense line surrounding Liaodong will be basically finalized.'
Pointing at the map in front of him, Emperor Chongzhen secretly said in his heart: "Liaodong no longer takes the regaining of lost territory as its strategic goal, but instead turns to a strategic defense posture, constantly weakening the Jianlu base from the flanks. This gives the Ming Dynasty a chance to win."
gas.
The heavy Liao salary burden can be lifted from the people of the Ming Dynasty, and the intensified class conflicts can be correspondingly reduced.'
The Ming Dynasty, which was in the Little Ice Age, suffered from frequent disasters in various places. There were great maladministrations in the taxation system, the imbalance of the court's revenue and expenditure, and various local exorbitant taxes. These all caused an extremely heavy burden on the people of the Ming Dynasty.
, those days are finally over.
Why did the bandit uprising in Chongzhen Dynasty become more and more intense and could not be extinguished no matter how hard they were killed?
Isn’t the fundamental reason that the people at the bottom have no way out?
The scholarly class headed by civil servants have never regarded them as human beings. They are just pure means of production. Clay figures still have three elements, let alone living people.
"Your Majesty, the General Administration Department has forwarded many memorials to the Supervisor of Ceremonies, most of which are about Yuan Chonghuan." Seeing that his emperor was no longer handling government affairs, Pang Tianshou stepped forward cautiously and whispered.
The fact that Yuan Chonghuan was sent to prison has always worried the hearts of the ministers in the court, which Emperor Chongzhen could have imagined.
"Ignore it, stay in China."
Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "It's getting late. I'm going back to the harem to rest. If there's anything else, I'll talk about it tomorrow. We won't miss this time."
Emperor Chongzhen didn't even need to read the memorials to the General Affairs Department to guess what was written on them. It was nothing more than admonishing himself that even if Yuan Chonghuan was guilty, he should not be handed over to the Jinyi Guards for investigation. The imperial court has three law departments, and such important matters should be handled by the three law departments.
Come and do it.
If Yuan Chonghuan is really handed over to the Three Laws Division for investigation, does the initiative still lie in the hands of Emperor Chongzhen?
