309 Rectify Qin Land

Afterwards, Du Yinxi strode into the Chinese army tent without saying a word.

This situation surprised He Renlong and others. After taking a sudden look, he stood up and followed in.

Du Yinxi went to sit in the coach's seat, then looked at the generals who followed him and shouted in a cold voice: "Where is He Renlong?"

He Renlong was a little confused about the situation and felt a little uneasy. When he heard the question, he stepped forward and clasped his fists again and replied: "Where is the general?"

Du Yinxi saw him, stared at him, and didn't speak immediately, which made He Renlong feel a little scared.

After a while, he heard Du Yinxi shout and ask: "Do you know your sin?"

Are you here to ask questions? When He Renlong heard this, he was shocked and his heart skipped a beat.

If we really follow the Ming Dynasty's laws, he has been guilty of escaping from battle more than once, and beheading the capital is a minor crime.

Will He Renlong be captured without hesitation? Of course it is impossible!

Therefore, after he reacted, he felt that since you wanted to accuse him, he would break up with you!

However, He Renlong recalled what Gao Jie had told him, which was to plead guilty to the new governor and strive to embrace the new governor's lap. Only in that way would he have a bright future!

When he thought of this, he immediately remembered that the governor only brought a dozen guards here. If he really wanted to punish him according to the Ming law, wouldn't he be looking for death?

In other words, the Governor will definitely not want him to die, otherwise he will not go to the military camp alone! Maybe he will not even be punished severely, otherwise, with the dignity of the Governor, he will not worry about falling out.

?If that is really the case, with the governor's rich body, wouldn't it be up to him to have the final say? Who dares to come to the military camp like this?

Thinking like this, He Renlong had some concerns in his mind.

But before he could speak, Du Yinxi said to him in a cold voice: "The strong commander returned from Kaixian County and lost his army alone. The two thieves Cao Cao came out and have not been pacified so far. When the enemy abandoned the commander, he collapsed first.

As a result, Xincai and Xiangcheng lost two governors (referring to Fu Zonglong and Wang Qiaonian). Can you plead guilty?"

Upon hearing this, He Renlong was suddenly shocked and felt a chill in his heart.

This Governor-General shows no mercy at all and sentences crimes according to the law without mercy. Does this mean he wants to punish himself with death?

If he really wanted to die, he would naturally struggle to his death!

However, when He Renlong subconsciously raised his head and saw Du Yinxi, he suddenly came back to his senses. Behind him were his trusted generals. This was also his military camp. It was impossible for Du Yinxi to be a civil servant.

I'm out of my mind, so I'm going to give an order to kill him, right?

Thinking of this, He Renlong hesitated for a moment and decided to take a look at the situation. He quickly knelt down on one knee and replied: "The general will finally be convicted!"

If the Governor dares to talk about taking people, he will not care. Saving his life is more important, so he will just do the opposite.

Of course, this is not a road he wants to take. He only takes it when he has no choice but to go.

Just when he felt a little uneasy and didn't know what would happen next, he heard Du Yinxi say to him: "Such a serious crime should be executed according to the law! But your majesty is wise and knows that you have fought for the country and made many achievements, so you can't do more."

You are a good general, and even last year your son died fighting for the country. The crimes you committed were all due to Yang Sichang's unclear rewards and punishments, which chilled your heart. Therefore, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. The penalty is twenty army sticks.

, can you accept the crime?"

Although He Renlong defeated Li Zicheng in the Battle of Lingbaoshan in the 14th year of Chongzhen, his son He Daming died in the battle. He Renlong felt that he had paid too much but was still suppressed by the old cunning Zuo Liangyu, whom he despised.

With one head, they will no longer use their own strength and save their strength to deal with the war.

At this time, Du Yinxi said that Emperor Chongzhen remembered his past achievements and his eyes suddenly turned red when he thought of his son.

From a mere garrison, how many life and death fights, it can really be said that for so many years, I have been fighting in the north and south, and I have experienced many days and nights of life and death. I have accumulated merit and been promoted to the rank of commander-in-chief step by step. All the achievements in the past, it turns out that the emperor has

I remember it!

Some people, even though they are usually fierce, have a soft side in their hearts.

The same is true for He Renlong. All along, especially after comparing with Zuo Liangyu, he always thought that he was a stepmother's child who worked hard but failed. Unexpectedly, the first person in the world actually remembered

His good deeds and achievements!

At this time, after listening to Du Yinxi's words, he immediately knelt down with his knees weak, knocked hard, and replied with a bit of gulp, "The last general will take the blame!"

This penalty did not kill him, it was just a slap in the face. This pain was normal for a soldier fighting on the battlefield. As for the demotion, he didn't care. As long as he was treated fairly, he believed that he could be promoted back to the rank of soldier.

, or even higher.

Of course, if he was to beheaded, even if Emperor Chongzhen remembered his merits, he would be unlikely to plead guilty.

When Du Yinxi saw it, he nodded secretly in his heart. He had originally prepared two plans.

It mainly depends on He Renlong's attitude towards pleading guilty. If you think he is still redeemable, then this matter will be over after the punishment; if you find that he is already like Zuo Liangyu, the kind of person who is hopeless.

, then after stabilizing He Renlong, you still have a chance to kill him when you turn around.

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen did indeed say so, but Du Yinxi naturally didn't know that this was not what Emperor Chongzhen himself meant, but what Liu Weichao gave him as his adviser. Otherwise, He Renlong's son died in the battle.

It is impossible to go to Datian to listen to it. It was Liu Weichao who found out and analyzed the story based on He Renlong's deeds.

At this time, Du Yinxi turned to look at the others, and immediately shouted: "Where is Gao Jie?"

Gao Jie and the others had been watching, and when they saw the Governor-General congratulating Renlong in such a dejected manner, they felt confident in their hearts, and they all stepped forward to obey the order very neatly.

It was no surprise that these generals were given military sticks and demoted, and were allowed to perform meritorious service for their crimes.

After all the generals in the Chinese army's tent knelt down to accept their punishment, Du Yinxi looked at them and said in a deep voice: "Starting from tomorrow, each army will conduct self-checks on their numbers, verify and report, and severely punish those who are found to be untruthful. In addition, in the future, the army will

There are no private soldiers among them, and they are all listed on the list and reported to the official! When the imperial ordnance and armor arrive, they will be distributed according to the list!"

The so-called private soldiers are actually the servants of generals at all levels.

Normally speaking, generals at all levels, especially those with many retainers, are definitely opposed to abolishing retainers.

However, the military system of servants is actually not justified in name and cannot be put on the table. The most important thing is that Du Yinxi said later that after the imperial ordnance and armor arrived, they were distributed according to the roster.

Needless to say, what the imperial court's weapons and armor are like, just look at the army directly under the Governor-General.

He Renlong and others imagined that if they could lead a truly elite army, wouldn't it be commonplace to win battles? Why do they need to support servants? Isn't it just a method of fighting that they came up with out of desperation? The ultimate goal

, it’s all about making military exploits to win over his wife and son!

Therefore, after hearing what Du Yinxi said, He Renlong and others had no objection and immediately agreed loudly.

Then, the execution began.

The entire army under He Renlong gathered together to announce Du Yinxi's verdict. A group of generals headed by He Renlong slapped their military sticks in front of the entire army.

During this process, the entire audience was solemn and solemn. Even though most of the He Renlong army was filled with thieves, they were all solemn and quiet at this moment.

Five days later, all military leaders, including He Renlong, submitted the new military roster to the Governor's Mansion.

Du Yinxi looked at the generals below who had been punished to some extent, and said in a deep voice: "I was ordered to reorganize the Jingying Camp and the Yongwei Camp, and then the Jingying Camp and the Yongwei Camp fought for more than ten times in the Battle of Jizhou.

Wan Jianlu's army was almost wiped out. Now I am appointed as the governor of the three sides, and I also want to reorganize the Qin army and quell the rebel rebellion in Qin!"

Having said this, he paused and glanced at the generals below. Seeing that they all showed excitement, he continued: "The imperial court also knows that pacifying the rebellion is the basis of people's livelihood. However, the capital is too far away and it is difficult to transport food to the west.

Reality. Therefore, starting next year, Qin will also promote sweet potato crops as a supplement to food. In addition, I will visit several vassal kings according to the order and ask them to provide some money and food. In addition, you have to eat outside. You guys

In addition to quelling the bandit rebellion in the areas under our jurisdiction, people from all walks of life must also send out cavalry to fight in the Hetao!"

In the surprised expressions of He Renlong and others, Du Yinxi sneered and said: "How many times have the Mongolian Tatars entered the pass with the Jianlu and plundered them? Your Majesty has a decree, and it is not polite to come and go. You wait until you come out of the pass, so

The spoils of war will be divided equally with the imperial court, and the military merits will be counted separately!"

The grassland outside the Qin Dynasty is the famous Hetao area, which belongs to the Tumut tribe of Mongolia.

This tribe was once glorious during the Jiajing period. Their leader Ada Khan even led his troops to the capital, and later made peace. The Ming Dynasty named Ada Khan the King of Shunyi and opened the border market.

However, by the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Tumote tribe had declined. It was defeated by Lin Dan Khan of the Chahar tribe and fled westward. The Hetao area fell into the hands of Lin Dan Khan. However, within two years, Lin Dan Khan was defeated by the Jianqi again. Not only did he go west

He died of illness while escaping, and his wife and son were returned to Huang Taiji and other slave chiefs.

Later, the Tumut tribe returned to Hetao, surrendered to the Jianlu, and was divided into left and right banners by the Jianlu, further weakening their strength.

Dealing with the Tumut tribe, which had been weakened again, He Renlong and others had no pressure at all. Not only could the spoils be divided in half, but the battle merits would also be counted separately, which immediately aroused their ferocity. If it hadn't been for Du Yinxi

uniform, I'm afraid I'll scream on the spot.

So, they all waited until the New Year was over and the weather got better before preparing to leave the customs.

……………………

On the capital side, news about the fall of Wuchang, the murder of King Chu, and even the founding of the country by Zhang Xianzhong finally reached the capital in the last few days of the year.

Suddenly, the ministers were furious. These bandits actually wanted to establish a country. They could not be destroyed!
