Mercenaries of the Heavens

Chapter 215
In front of the gate of the palace, the messenger was brought into the palace. Emperor Chongzhen, who was reviewing the memorial, heard the noise outside the palace, and hurriedly asked Wang Chengen, the eunuch who was standing beside him:

"Wang Daban, go out and see what is making such a commotion?"

Wang Chengen, who heard Chongzhen's words, bowed and said:
"Yes! Your Majesty!"

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly turned around and left the hall, only to see the messenger brought in.

Seeing that it was the messenger who arrived, Wang Chengen hurriedly asked where did the urgent report come from?

Seeing that it was a big eunuch asking, the messenger didn't dare to neglect, and hastily knelt down on one knee and said:
"Reporting to Eunuch! It's the good news from Wang Zhi and Mr. Wang..."

Upon hearing the good news from Wang Zhi, Wang Chengen hastily stopped him and said:

"Stop talking! Come in with me, and you will play it for His Majesty yourself!"

When the messenger heard that he was going to meet the emperor, his mood suddenly became excited!When he stood up, he staggered and almost fell to the ground!Fortunately, after training in the army for a long time, his skills are not bad, so he lowered his waist and stabilized his figure, and followed Wang Chengen into the hall.

Chongzhen in the hall had already heard the conversation outside, knew that it was the master's good news, and hurriedly stopped what he was doing, waiting for the messenger to come in to report.

When the messenger saw Chongzhen face to face, he hurriedly knelt down on his knees, kowtowed, buried his head and shouted:

"See the emperor! Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Chongzhen suppressed his excitement, hurriedly waved and said:

"Free gift!"

Then he winked at Wang Chengen who was at the side in a subtle way!

Wang Chengen understood, and hurriedly said:

"I haven't passed on Lord Wang's memorial yet!"

Hearing Wang Chengen's words, the messenger hurriedly took off the burden on his body, opened it, took out the memorial and the letter, raised his hands above his head, and waited for Wang Chengen to take it.

Wang Chengen hurried forward, took down the memorial and letters, walked quickly to the imperial case, and handed the memorial to the impatient Chongzhen.

Chongzhen put the memorial aside, opened the letter in his hand, unfolded the letter paper and began to read silently:
apprentice:

The master has already taken down the Shengjing City of the Tartars!Huang Taiji committed suicide when I broke the city. The Tartar Eight Banners leaders captured Dorgon, Mang Gurtai, and Daishan alive. Huang Taiji's subordinate Gu Shan Shuotuo, I will escort them back to the capital, and you personally decree Beheaded as a public display to show off the country's prestige!

The heads of Huang Taiji, Azig, Duoduo, Dai Min, and Aobai will be sent back together later!

The land outside the customs is very fertile, and the people who have no land to plant can come to cultivate it!

In addition, capable officials should be sent to manage. I suggest that the troops who came to support from the nine towns stay outside the customs to assist in governance!
Furthermore, I do not recommend dealing with Wu Sangui, he is still young and has an uncertain temperament, as long as he guides him well, he will be a great help to you.

I will bring him by my side and teach him strictly!
When the officials arrive, I will not go back to Beijing. I plan to take the new army and Wu Sangui's [-] Shanhaiguan cavalry directly to northern Shaanxi to wipe out the rebels. After everything is settled, I will come back!

Master, everything is well, don't read!

After reading the master's letter, Chongzhen was in a complicated mood:

The border troubles of the Tartars that had plagued the Ming Dynasty for many years were pacified by the master, not to mention, and opened up the territory for the Ming Dynasty!Seeing the victory of the war, the master had no time to lead people to eliminate the rebellion in northern Shaanxi and other places.

Thinking of this, Chongzhen couldn't help feeling excited, and couldn't calm down for a long time!

Seeing Chongzhen's excited face, Wang Chengen, who was standing by the side, looked at the letter with fixed eyes, knowing that Chongzhen missed his master, hurriedly asked someone to take the messenger down to rest, and drove out the palace ladies and eunuchs.

After a while, Chongzhen came back to his senses, looked at Wang Chengen, and thought that when he was hanged in Meishan in history, only this eunuch who took care of him since childhood accompanied him to die, if there was no master. . . . . .

Thinking of this, Chongzhen shook his head, dispelled this terrible idea from his mind, and said to Wang Chengen:

"Big companion! The master's letter said: The Tartars have been wiped out! The land outside the customs has also been occupied by our Ming Dynasty! I have gained countless lands in vain! This is really thanks to my master! What do you think?"

When Wang Chengen heard Chongzhen mention Wang Zhi, he hurriedly bowed and said:

"Yes! Your Majesty! It is His Majesty who is so blessed that God sent His Majesty Wang to assist His Majesty! No, he has made such a great contribution to our Ming Dynasty! Your Majesty should reward His Majesty!"

Hearing Wang Chengen's words, Chongzhen knew that he didn't dare to speak too much for his master, so he shook his head and said with a smile:

"You! Hehe!"

After finishing speaking, Chongzhen thought in his heart:
You still don't understand my master!He is an expert outside the world, how could he care about high officials and rich salary in the mundane world!If it weren't for this disciple who wanted to help me, how could he form a new army and go out to exterminate the Tartars!
Thinking of this, Chongzhen continued:

"Big companion! The master also said in the letter that he is not going back to the capital directly! There are rebellions in northern Shaanxi and other places. After he enters the customs, he will take action to wipe out these rebellious officials and thieves! Hey, this general of the Manchu Dynasty can't Can you find someone who can lead troops to fight? You have to work hard for the master!"

Hearing Chongzhen's words, Wang Chengen didn't dare to answer, but just bowed and stood aside, as if he didn't hear it.

On the morning of the second day, Chongzhen ordered people to read Wang Zhi's memorial in public.

After the eunuch finished reading, the whole court was like a frying pan, and all the ministers of civil and military affairs whispered to each other and talked a lot.

Some do not believe in doubts; some worry that Wang Zhi's contribution is too great to be suppressed; and some are sincerely happy for the court!In short, there are all kinds of thoughts, elusive!

Among them, Lu Xiangsheng and other newly promoted officials are convinced of this and are not happy!The Ming Dynasty finally produced a mainstay figure!What is rare is that he is still so trusted by the emperor. This is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty!
Several people stood up one after another, congratulated the imperial court on the great victory, and asked for rewards for those who made meritorious deeds!
Chongzhen smiled and agreed, and ordered the Ministry of War to award meritorious generals as appropriate.

After some discussion, Sun Chuanting was ordered to take the post of governor outside the customs to manage the land outside the customs.

After coming down to court, Chongzhen left Sun Chuanting alone, and gave him face-to-face instructions. After he arrived in Liaodong, he sought Wang Zhi's advice and found the correct strategy for governing Liaodong.

Sun Chuanting knew that Wang Zhi was the master of Emperor Chongzhen, and he admired Wang Zhi's character and ability.

Hearing this, he agreed without hesitation. After leaving Chongzhen, Sun Chuanting went home immediately, summoned his own soldiers, and went to Liaodong with the civil servants who followed him the next day.

But at this time in Liaodong, the monk brought Shen Lian and the others to kill Aobai's men and returned to Shengjing City with his head.

Only then did Wang Zhi heave a sigh of relief, and ordered the army chef to kill pigs and sheep to reward the soldiers.

After ten days like this, Sun Chuanting and his group finally entered Shengjing City.

Wang Zhi led people to greet him without saying a word. Sun Chuanting and Wang Zhi had a private meeting and directly asked Wang Zhi about the governance policy of Liaodong. , trees, animal skins, and medicinal resources.
