Feng Ziying's words made Han Xu and Wang Yongguang's faces darken, and they felt very unhappy, but they also knew that what the other party said was the truth.
With a sword, an ax and a neck, how many people can be strong enough not to bow their heads?
Besides, this is a family matter of the Zhang family. Shilin Wenchen can express his attitude. If it doesn't work, you can resign and step down. If you want to earn this backbone with your life or even the life of a family, I'm afraid there are really not many people.
When Prince Yi Zhong was the crown prince, he followed the Supreme Emperor to the south of the Yangtze River many times, and got along well with the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River. This is also where Prince Yi Zhong's basic foundation and confidence lie. Ye Fang and others were constrained by their righteousness and could not turn to Prince Yi Zhong, but what about the others?
?
What about Liu Yishen, Huang Ruliang, Gao Panlong, Gu Bingqian and others? Even if these few can handle it, what about other officials such as ministers, ministers, and foreign ministers?
Who wouldn't want to take this opportunity to climb the dragon and the phoenix and get a chance?
What if officials from the Six Ministries of Nanjing and Jiangnan nationality move south in large numbers?
"Ziying, your worries are groundless now. Besides, what can we do if you and I are trapped in the palace? Or can we only wait until the cabinet ministers arrive before we can make plans?" Han Xu couldn't help it.
"Mr. Han, by the time the clues are revealed, I'm afraid that the army will have already arrived at the capital city. Even if we have evidence at that time, what can we do?" Feng Ziying said bitterly: "At that time, we will have no choice but to wait and die."
"Ziying, what do you think we should do?" Wang Yongguang seemed to hear something. He didn't know much about military affairs and couldn't intervene, but it was still possible to set up a step between Feng Ziying and Han Xu.
"The Jizhen Army was mobilized to fight the eastward advance of the Xuanfu Army. It must be isolated to the west of the capital city. Niu Jizong was dismissed from his post as Governor of Xuanda, and Ma Gui was appointed Governor of Xuanda. In addition, he ordered Datong Town and Shanxi Town not to obey Niu Jizong's orders anymore.
The order also ordered Yang Yuan to control Sun Shaozu's troops, and Chai Guozhu to send troops to attack Xuanfu Town..."
Feng Ziying's series of suggestions made Han Xu and Wang Yongguang stunned.
These demands were too outrageous. To hastily issue such an order before Prince Yi Zhong and Niu Jizong were sure that there was any change would almost force the other party to rebel.
"Ziying, these demands of yours are so ridiculous. How can this be done? How can you convince the public by acting like this regardless of your deeds? That's not how the court does things..." Han Xu and Wang Yongguang both shook their heads, "Besides, it's inconvenient.
Gui Zao has already retired due to illness and returned to his hometown. It is neither appropriate nor appropriate for him to resume his duties now and it is difficult for him to shoulder this responsibility."
Ma Gui retired due to illness a few years ago and returned to his hometown. Feng Ziying also knew that this was not a suitable candidate, but several members of the Ma family held military positions in Shanxi, Xuanfu, and Ji Town, and they had great influence.
In the situation of living in the North, it is an expedient measure to let Ma Gui serve as the commander-in-chief of Xuanda, but it can also stabilize a large number of people. You can't let your father come to Xuanda to put out the fire, right?
Even if Ma Gui is not appointed, as long as this appointment is made, the Xuanfu can be stabilized to a great extent. The soldiers of Datong and the three towns of Shanxi, plus the Feng family's influence in Datong, can break up with Niu Jizong.
It's an arm-wrestle, but it needs to be quick.
"Ziying, the key now is that we don't understand the situation in Xuanfu. You keep saying that Niu Jizong will march eastward, but there is no basis..." Han Xu said in a deep voice: "We can talk to Xu Dahua.
Ask him to immediately arrange for people from Ji Town to investigate in case of any unexpected events."
"I'm afraid it will be too late until the verification is clear. Mr. Han, before I came, I had already persuaded Mr. Xu and asked him to order the Youshi power army still in Shunyi to garrison in Gonghua City, just in case." Feng Ziying said calmly.
.
Both Han and King were surprised, "Xi Huan (characterized by Xu Dahua) really agreed? This is impossible!"
"Second Duke, King Zhongshun and I came to persuade Lord Xihuan Xu. He is the left minister of the Ministry of War. He may know some situations better than you." Feng Ziying said calmly: "In fact, in the past month, the Xuanfu army has been secretly mobilizing
, the Yanqing Guard garrison has at least tripled to more than 10,000 people, which is obviously beyond the scale. The Huailai Guard and Baoan Prefecture garrison have also been adjusted very vigorously. Has it been reported to the Ministry of War? I think not, but I don’t believe it.
The Ministry of War and Long Jinwei know nothing about it. I don’t know why they ignore it, or are they deliberately condoning it?”
Yanqing Guard, Huailai Guard, and Baoan Prefecture are the areas under the jurisdiction of Xuanfu Town extending from northeast to southwest along the line of the Great Wall. However, these places are not defense areas against the Mongolian tribes. They are equivalent to Xuanfu Town.
The hinterland of the city is, on the contrary, adjacent to the Inner Great Wall, and the Inner Great Wall is the defense area of Ji Town garrison, and there have never been many garrison troops.
Another difference is that although Yanqingwei is under the jurisdiction of Xuanfu Town, it is south of the Inner Great Wall. This is also a historical issue.
Originally, Yanqing Guard belonged to Ji Town, but when Wang Ziteng was the governor of Xuanda, Yanqing Guard was placed under Xuanfu Town. Mainly because of the lack of reserve soldiers in Xuanfu Town, Yanqing Guard was an adjacent garrison.
Therefore, it was placed under the jurisdiction of Xuanfu Town, mainly to supplement the troops of Xuanfu. However, in fact, Yanqing Guards Station does not usually have troops stationed there, because it is already south of the Great Wall in Badaling, and there is no need at all.
However, now that Yanqing Guards Station is under the jurisdiction of Xuanfu Town, how Niu Jizong adjusts and arranges the deployment of troops is a matter for him, the governor, and Zhang Chengyin, the commander-in-chief. Feng Ziying does not believe that Niu Jizong would just watch such a big gap here without adding anything.
use.
Neither Han Xu nor Wang Yongguang knew what was going on here, but they vaguely knew that there seemed to have been some discussions between the cabinet ministers and the emperor. However, Qi Yongtai did not disclose the specific situation, and only vaguely mentioned the emperor and the emperor.
The cabinet and the Ministry of War discussed possible arrangements for Xuanfu Town in the next step, but they did not bother to inquire further.
Han Xu had long heard of Feng Ziying's willfulness and boldness, but today was the first time he had truly seen it.
But Xu Dahua was old and cunning, not familiar with military affairs, and was a scholar from the south of the Yangtze River. Logically speaking, he should not easily support Feng Ziying, let alone be so impulsive. How could he be persuaded by Feng Ziying with just a few words?
This can only mean that Xu Dahua should know some situations that they are still unclear about, but Feng Ziying should not know about this situation, so how can Feng Ziying predict it?
Han Xu did not believe that Qi Yongtai's style would reveal some information that had been revealed to them to Feng Ziying. Even though Feng Ziying was his favorite disciple, Han Xu and Wang Yongguang were the backbone of the scholars in the North. Feng Ziying was still too immature now.
Some.
"The Yanqing Guard garrison has tripled? Does the Ministry of War know about it?" Han Xu was shocked when he heard this statement. The Yanqing Guard is south of the Great Wall and is only two days away from the capital city. If Niu Jizong is really disobedient,
Heart, that would be really dangerous
"The adjustments and deployments just under the eyes of the Capital City, the Ministry of War's Staff Department is a bunch of dead people, a bunch of blind and deaf people? Even if it's not good, there must be the spy of Long Jinwei." Feng Ziying sneered, "More than 10,000 troops are stationed.
I don’t even know how Niu Jizong managed to force them down at the Yanqing Guard Station. The Yanqing Guard garrison has never exceeded 3,000 people in the past. Who are they trying to guard against? Could it be that Niu Jizong really has the ability to predict things like a god, so he knows that the Mongols can break through?
The border wall is coming to Changping Prefecture, so he wants to prevent his retreat from being cut off. Why don't you trust Jizhen?"
Feng Ziying's question left Han Xu speechless.
Looking around the key passes around the capital, the special nature of the Yanqing Guard is self-evident. It would be abnormal for the Yanqing Guard to have more than three thousand garrison troops. This is a truth that anyone with a little knowledge of military affairs understands. Unless the Chahar people broke through the border wall last year and penetrated deeply.
The situation in the hinterland is another matter.
But now that there is peace, it is difficult to explain why Niu Jizong and Zhang Chengyin suddenly increased the garrison strength in Yanqing Guard, and increased it several times.
Seeing Han Xu's gloomy face, Wang Yongguang also realized the seriousness of the problem, "Yu Chen, the situation is serious?"
"If what Ziying said is true, it would be very serious. Prince Yi Zhong might have a disloyal heart." Han Xu muttered, stroking his beard, "So Xi Huan must know something, otherwise he wouldn't be like this.
He readily agreed to Ziying's suggestion. Who was going to give the order to You Shigong? Without Brother Huaichang's seal, just relying on Xihuan's handwriting, even if You Shigong wanted to receive the order, it would probably take time to verify it, and he might not be able to make it in time.
Already."
At this time, Han Xucai showed his due level. Feng Ziying nodded: "I signed my name as a guarantee and asked King Zhongshun to personally deliver the order. In addition, I also sent a close associate of mine to testify. I hope You Shi can be more sharp and decisive."
"Well, it should be so. It might be better for King Zhongshun to go." Han Xu took a deep look at Feng Ziying. He didn't want to say anything at first, but finally said: "Ziying, I know You Shigong is your father's old subordinate, but this kind of thing is your responsibility
Your status is not suitable, it is best to participate less, and it is against the rules of the court. The Metropolitan Procuratorate knows that impeaching you is absolutely necessary. Even Brother Rujun (Qiao Yingjia) cannot protect you. It is natural to remove you from office on the spot. Besides, it is a temporary change, but
No, this will never happen again in the future."
Feng Ziying was shocked. What Han Xu said was from the bottom of his heart. What does it mean to write a handwritten guarantee for the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War? Didn't You Shigong not obey the orders of the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War, but still wants you, the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, to be your guarantee? This
Could it be that the Jizhen Army is your Feng family’s private army?
Taking a deep breath, Feng Ziying quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, Mr. Han, for reminding me. The student was a little hasty when he was in a hurry. I will never dare to do it again in the future."
Han Xu nodded: "I also know that you are anxious, but Brother Chengfeng (Qi Yongtai), Prime Minister Ye, and Prime Minister Fang should have some plans, but it is indeed necessary for You Shigong to leave Gonghua City immediately, otherwise if Niu
If Ji Zong really wants to march into the capital, Gonghua City will be a hurdle he can't get around."
