Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 653 It's time to go home and have a look
"Lu Qing has fought for Ming Dynasty for many years, and I have long wanted to transfer him back to take a good rest." Emperor Chongzhen looked at Sun Chuanting and said, "It just so happens that North Korea has already fought a big battle with Japan. I thought it would be good , Qing dispatched troops from the Qin and Jin Dynasties, the Guanning Army, and the Beijing Camp to replace the current army in North Korea and complete a change of guard. How about it?"

Sun Chuanting was a little surprised when he heard that, he didn't expect that the emperor's opening was not about the war in Yunnan, but something far away in North Korea.And what he also noticed in particular was that the emperor said that there had just been a big battle with the Wa country.Then if I go, is there still a battle to fight?
He was not outside Shenyang at that time, otherwise, Emperor Chongzhen told Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng that time that the Wa Kingdom must be occupied.In this way, it is only a big battle in North Korea, and there will be more battles to fight in the future.

However, Sun Chuanting didn't know. After hesitating for a while, he replied to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, since the Japanese nation has already fought a big battle, and the Japanese kingdom is bound to be defeated, can there still be wars in North Korea?"

"Hehe!" Emperor Chongzhen laughed when he heard this, because Sun Chuanting was worried that there would be no more battles!If there is a chance, Ming Dynasty will conquer the whole world in the future. Are you afraid that there will be no battles to fight?
Thinking of this, although he didn't smile anymore, the smile still stayed on his face, and he said to Sun Chuanting: "Wo Kingdom has coveted my Daming several times, and I will not spare him the ambitious man. Even if Wa Kingdom no longer dares to attack North Korea Province, as long as there is a chance, I, Da Ming, will take the initiative to attack and destroy the Wa country!"

"Your Majesty's words are very true!" Sun Chuanting replied with a hint of joy when he heard that he had achieved the goal of destroying the country, "The Japanese pirates have always brought trouble to my Ming Dynasty. !"

"That's the reason!" Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said, "In the current situation over there, I, Ming, have already taken the initiative. In the future situation, after Qing has gone, I can make a decisive decision. Do you understand?"

"Wei Chen understands!" Sun Chuanting was very happy to hear this. This gave him the right to make decisions on the spur of the moment, so he immediately said firmly and forcefully, "Wei Chen accepts the order!"

So, it was settled.Emperor Chongzhen immediately drafted an order to send Lu Xiangsheng and his troops back to Daming to rest.There are five reasons for doing so.

First, since Lu Xiangsheng became the governor of Baoding in the 12th year of Chongzhen, he has been fighting for the country in the Liaodong Peninsula. He has not returned home once for seven years. No matter what, it has been long enough, and he should be allowed to Went home to visit relatives.

Second, the Dongjiang Army is composed of volunteers from the original bandits who killed captives.Emperor Chongzhen remembered very clearly that only a small number of rogues were willing to atone for their past in the battle of Nanyang.

In the original battle of Pyongyang, many people were killed and injured, and those who are still alive are still fighting for Ming in North Korea.Emperor Chongzhen also intended to allow these Ming soldiers to take their glory and give them a chance to return to their hometown.

Thirdly, among the officials of Ming Dynasty, Lu Xiangsheng can be regarded as the most prestigious military commander.And his style is that he loves soldiers like sons, in other words, he can effectively unite the soldiers at the bottom.In this way, let him be responsible for the reform of the military system of the southern guards. I believe that he will not be emptied by those old officers, nor will he provoke any mutiny, and he can effectively deter the local guards.

Fourth, the army in North Korea can be regarded as an army that is good at fighting. After being transferred back and stationed in various places, it can also effectively intimidate various places.And in the reform of the garrison military system, these troops can be used as the backbone to expand the field regiment.Not only can the old be brought in with the new, but it can also give these veterans room for improvement.

Fifth, Sun Chuanting replaced Lu Xiangsheng. With his style, he would not be polite to the Japanese.And this is what Emperor Chongzhen himself meant.

Conquering the Wa country, then the people of the Wa country are also the people of Ming Dynasty, and this kind of treatment is very good.Emperor Chongzhen felt that this would not work.If it is a colony, it is not what Emperor Chongzhen wants, and it is likely that it will not become the permanent land of Ming Dynasty in the future.

Therefore, Sun Chuanting should not be merciful to those who have opinions on Daming.In the process of conquering the Wa country, it is okay to kill some enemies.Only the Japanese who made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty's conquest of the Wa Kingdom, and those who obeyed Da Ming's words and were able to be a good citizen of the Ming Dynasty, were eligible to become the people of the Ming Dynasty!

There is a lot of experience that can prove that if it is just a brain, accepting the territory as if it is a peaceful conquest, there will definitely be many problems.That being the case, it is better to directly break and rebuild.

On the Jiangnan side, although the ruthless Sun Chuanting is missing, Yang Tinglin and Lu Jiude are still there, and after so many years of experience, Zhang Pu is already familiar with the things he is continuing to rectify.Sun Chuanting's departure will not have much impact.

So, just like that, after Emperor Chongzhen finished arranging this matter, he didn't take any more rest, and continued to lead the army northward along the Yangtze River, marching towards Yunnan via Sichuan.

Of course, he wasn't just on his way.In front of the army, he has let the rumors spread all over the place, saying that Emperor Chongzhen led [-] imperial troops to conquer Yunnan personally.

At the same time, he also issued an order to the factory guards to publicize the series of victories that Daming had achieved in the north.He also ordered the governments of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan to start publicizing these.

Before the army arrives, the offensive strategy comes out first.

…………

The current situation in Yunnan can be said to be full of war.Except for the capital Kunming and several nearby states and counties, many other places under the jurisdiction of chieftains have raised flags to rebel.Even some of them were under the jurisdiction of imperial officials and were captured by neighboring chieftains.For a while, the chieftain's arrogance was the most in Yunnan's history.

For this situation, Qian Guogong Mu Tianbo was very dissatisfied.In other words, his dissatisfaction has actually been accumulated for a long time.

First of all, the current emperor violated the ancestral system and even abolished the hereditary system of princes.Even the emperor's sons have to be downgraded every generation, not to mention, of course, it is impossible for them to keep their original hereditary titles, and they have to be downgraded every generation.

In other words, after Emperor Chongzhen issued that decree, Mu Tianbo was the last Duke of Qian.This is the same as in the original history.But regarding this, at least on the bright side, Mu Tianbo had absolutely no way of objecting.Because the emperor even wants to do this with his own son, how can you, a foreign minister, make irresponsible remarks on this?

At this time, Mu Tianbo was only 28 years old, but he inherited the Dukedom of Qianguo when he was ten years old, so he had been Duke of Qianguo for 18 years.This has been in power for a long time, and I really hate this power.

In the original history, he should have had such an idea from the very beginning.The small imperial court of the Nanming Dynasty came to ask for help, but he didn't give anything away, and finally took advantage of Sha Dingzhou.

Later, the rest of the Western Army wanted to enter Yunnan, and Kunming was occupied by Shadingzhou. In the end, Mu Tianbo, who was knighted by Daming, stood with Daming, and finally died for Daming.

Of course, on this plane, these things are impossible.Mu Tianbo's dissatisfaction, besides the downgrading of the title every generation, is also his inaction towards the Baigan army.

For a long time, this area of ​​Yunnan has been jointly managed by successive generations of Guizhou Dukes and governors of Yunnan.But also because of this, there have always been conflicts between the Duke of Guizhou and the governor of Yunnan.

The White Pole Army represents the imperial court.However, I have been in Yunnan for several years, but I have been unable to put down the chieftain's rebellion.What made Mu Tianbo even more dissatisfied was that the Baigan Army finally retreated to Kunming, causing chaos in Yunnan.

Although he knew that this was Emperor Chongzhen's will, but this will was contrary to his interests, he did not dare to be dissatisfied with the emperor, because it was passed on to the white pole army.

No, in the lobby of the Duke of Guizhou, Mu Tianbo and the governor of Yunnan Wu Zhaoyuan sat on the left and right seats respectively, and Qin Liangyu, the commander of the white pole army, sat on the side next to Wu Zhaoyuan.Her son Ma Xianglin stood behind her.

Mu Tianbo said dissatisfiedly: "When did the imperial court start to suppress the chieftain's rebellion?"

"Didn't the Duke know? The emperor has transferred Xuanda Governor Chen to serve as the Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and now he is preparing troops, horses, food and grass in Guizhou." Wu Zhaoyuan turned to look at Mu Tianbo who was younger than him and said, "Three sides The governor-general, Mr. Zheng, has also led troops into Sichuan, and even the emperor has personally led troops to Yunnan..."

Having said this, he paused and then said: "As for Kunming, with Old General Qin watching over him, nothing will happen. The Duke can just wait with peace of mind!"

Mu Tianbo knew all these news.However, he felt that the imperial court only thundered but never rained. He had never heard of the chieftain's rebellion. Although the imperial court also sent white-armed troops, it had no effect, which annoyed him a lot.

At this time, he glanced at the white-haired Qin Liangyu, turned back to Wu Zhaoyuan, and said with a bit of dissatisfaction: "I heard that those chieftains are meeting for an alliance, not to mention that the imperial army has not arrived, this Kunming..."

Having said that, Mu Tianbo turned his head to look at Qin Liangyu and said, "General Qin is really old at this age, could something be wrong!"

At this time, Qin Liangyu was already 72 years old, and in the eyes of 28-year-old Mu Tianbo, he was indeed very old.Even Ma Xianglin is over 50.

Obviously, he was worried that the Baigan Army would not be able to keep Kunming.In his opinion, if the Baigan army had the ability, they would have wiped out the rebellious chieftains long ago, instead of following the emperor's secret decree and deliberately not destroying them.

When Ma Xianglin behind Qin Liangyu heard this, he was furious and wanted to bypass the front to speak, but was stopped by Qin Liangyu.She just heard her say to Mu Tianbo nonchalantly: "If the Duke is worried about the strength of my white army, how about entrusting the important task of city defense to the Duke?"
