choke element

Guo Ning led his army north this time. His original idea was to wander around the main battlefield of Zhongdu. On the one hand, he contained the Mongolian army to ensure the safety of Zhongdu and Zhigu Village. Get some benefits in the process.

But Guo Ning really didn't expect that the Jurchen's weakness fell to an extent that he could never dream of, and the Ding Navy continued to increase investment to make up for the Jurchens' weakness, and the final result became what it is now.He himself called Gao Zhuqiang Guangjiu for two years, but inadvertently entered Zhongdu himself.

Now that you have come, you have to sit still, and you cannot retreat.Walking on this road, Guo Ning's pace does not represent him alone.Take a step back and be humble, maybe there will be thieves and ants gathering to rape the eagle, and everyone who follows Guo Ning will fall into the abyss and die without a place to die.

Therefore, it is necessary to build a hegemony.

This is not an easy task.According to common sense, to establish a foundation for hegemony, one must try to be as comprehensive as possible, and even consider the methods of the past.But this hegemony came very quickly and fiercely, and the powerful enemy is still on the side.Although the Mongols suffered heavy losses, they will attack sooner or later after three or two years.If Genghis Khan is full of dominance, he will reintegrate the grassland in a blink of an eye, and go south to graze horses again this autumn, that is not impossible.

In such a situation, if Guo Ning wants to ensure the immediate advantage and integrate Zhongdu, Hebei and other places, he must act quickly.To be fast, we have to rule according to the custom, and minimize the setbacks in the process.

Guo Ning's close staff discussed behind closed doors several times, and finally felt that resetting the Marshal's Mansion in the capital in the early years of Dajin's founding was the most suitable choice at present, and it could just meet Guo Ning's military and political power needs.

In the past few years, because it has become a habit for the emperor to appoint officials and make wishes, there are often several people in the court with the titles of Marshal and Marshal.Leaving aside those who were defeated and died one after another, Gao Qi, Wanyan Chenghui, Pu Sanduan, etc. have all served as marshals of the capital since this year, and they have no subordinates to each other, so the number of soldiers and horses under their tents may not necessarily be more because of this.As for the other scattered left and right deputy marshals, left and right supervisors, and left and right supervisors, there are even more.

However, the position of Marshal Du was more than ten times or a hundred times more important in the early years.

When Dajin founded the country, he ran across the world with an army of tens of thousands, annihilating the Liao Dynasty and the Song Dynasty in one fell swoop, and then won the territory.Because the headquarters is still in the state of tribal alliance between the white mountains and the black waters, it is very barbaric and backward, and it suddenly seizes a vast territory, with hundreds of millions of people, the central government cannot govern at all.

Therefore, in fact, it is the newly established Marshal Du and his subordinate organizations that represent Daikin and govern the domain.

The first Marshal of the capital of the Dajin Kingdom was the younger brother of Emperor Taizu, and as the state reserve, Man Banbo was extremely strong and Wan Yangao; Lai Bo was very strong, Wanyan Zonghan; the third Marshal Wanyan Zongbi, who was in charge of the central, local and military powers, was an extremely human minister.

The three Marshals themselves are almost on the same level as the emperor, and they are the ones who can make decisions about military and state affairs.In the name of Marshal Capital, they sign the army, appoint and remove officers at all levels, and start wars. They are the military center of the Dajin Kingdom.At the same time, their Marshal's Mansion was able to issue decrees, select and appoint officials, and even select scholars through imperial examinations. It was the highest administrative authority in the Central Plains.Under the Marshal's Mansion, the Yunzhong and Yanjing Privy Councils, managed by the left and right deputy marshals, are the institutions that specifically implement government affairs. They were once commonly known as "Eastern Court" and "Western Court" among the people.

At this moment, Guo Ning proposed that Wan Yan Chenghui be appointed as the left deputy marshal of the Marshal's Mansion.Wanyan Chenghui immediately noticed that the key lies in the words "Marshal Du's Mansion". With Marshal Du's mansion, Deputy Marshal Zuo is not only an honorary title, but also a direct subordinate of Marshal Du.

Guo Ning is naturally the only candidate for Marshal Du, and since he established Marshal Du's Mansion, he will definitely use Marshal Du's Mansion as a tool and put aside the imperial court to manage military affairs; The court governs civil affairs.If you wave your sleeves lightly, all the power of the court will be wiped out!In this way, there is nothing to do with the Dajin court in the Dajin Kingdom, and the civil and military affairs of the whole dynasty will become decorations!

It is said that Guo Ning was born in a reckless family and acted fiercely without any restraint, so he was nicknamed a vicious tiger.Looking at it today, he expressed his own thoughts so directly, without any concealment, it can be seen that this person is not only a vicious tiger, but also a hungry tiger, with a big appetite!
However, the Jurchens have no way to object, and they have no strength to object.

Wanyan Chenghui's thousands of people in Tongzhou couldn't even cope with the subordinate army on Beijing Road. When they were most embarrassed a while ago, they had to rely on the Ding Navy to open up Lushui and transport food for support.If this army is against the elite soldiers of the Dinghai headquarters, it will be light to say that the chickens and dogs are light.

As for the nobles in Zhongdu...

Wanyan Chenghui was even a little worried, the Jurchens who were in the abandoned hall at this moment, don't let any of them jump out to object.

Guo Ning's Dinghai is based in Shandong.Wanyan Chenghui had served as an envoy to the Shandong Army, and he knew how deep the hatred between the Han'er and the Jurchens in that place was.This may be the retribution for slaughtering Han'er when the Great Jin was strong. When Shandong bandits arose, they searched for the Jurchens, spared no effort, and slaughtered them at every turn!
Since Guo Ning raised his army, he has been staring at Mongolia, and rarely mentions the hatred between Haner and the Jurchens. I heard that he has many officers of the Jurchens under his command. For example, when Wanyan Chenghui was in Tongzhou, the deaf old man he knew Wan Yan Kui is now serving for the Ding Navy in Zhigu Village.This is also one of the important reasons why Wanyan Chenghui is unwilling to break up with Guo Ning.

However, if the Jurchen family committed suicide without knowing the seriousness, and angered Guo Ning here... This vicious tiger jumped violently and made a change in Heyin, would his subordinates from Shandong object?

The poor Jurchen nobles in the capital city have withered a lot in the past few years; they were killed by the Mongols in the city before, and most of them died tragically again.If Guo Ning gets tricky again, I don't know how many famous families that originated from the bank of the mixed river will cease to exist!

Anyway, now the Jurchens in Zhongdu City don't have the ability to make trouble, and the only thing that is useful is their mouth, and the ability of the mouth is only talking and eating.Guo Ning's meaning is obvious, if you speak well, you will have food; if you speak badly, you will not have to eat.That being the case, how many choices does Wanyan Chenghui have?

He chuckled twice and remained silent for a long time.

Guo Ning didn't urge him, and chatted and laughed with Yila Chucai beside him.

After a while, Wanyan Chenghui said again: "The envoy asked me to be the deputy marshal of the left. I dare not refuse. It is nothing more than a cover for the envoy. Not everyone is qualified to be a cover like me. Well. However, the Privy Council of Zhiyidu seems to have a lot of power, I'm afraid I... ahem, I haven't taken over civil affairs for a long time, in case something goes wrong..."

Guo Ning laughed: "My lord, don't worry too much."

He pointed to Chucai who was beside him: "This Chucai, whose name is Jinqing, is the son of Mr. Shangshu Youcheng Ludao. In the past few years, Jinqing has been the arm of my navy, and he will be in the future. Served as a member of the Privy Council of Tongzhi Yidu. With his help, the boss doesn't have to worry about anything."

Yicha Chucai stood up with a smile and saluted Wanyan Chenghui.

Wanyan Chenghui returned the gift dumbfounded.

Well, I wanted to ask about the functions and powers of the Privy Council of Yidu, but I don't need to ask now.With Yira Chucai as his deputy, Yidu is there, is there anything else I need to worry about?
This post of Privy Council member of Zhiyidu is a cover just like Deputy Marshal Zuo.The treatment of me as a middleman is not as good as that of Yuan Tianmu.

However, the pretense is so glamorous, and the status is so noble, can you still refuse?
