There are not many people who succeed Wu Sidao, but Zhu Yicheng is only a few people who choose from it, but these suitable candidates are all valued now.

For example, He Xianzu in Ryukyu is one of them. Although Zhu Yicheng did not take He Xianzu seriously at first, he believed that he, a traitor from the Qing Dynasty, did not have the ability to show his ability. At best, he was better at being an official and a person. Therefore, Zhu Yicheng only placed He Xianzu in the Ministry of Rites, and he was not sent to Ryukyu afterwards because he made contributions in the negotiations with the Qing Dynasty.

But who would have thought that He Xianzu shone brightly after going to Ryukyu. In Ryukyu, he not only had a good dancer, but also implemented Zhu Yicheng's intentions well, which made Zhu Yicheng look at him with admiration. More importantly, his mind was very clear. At present, as long as the Ming Dynasty tried hard to completely annex Ryukyu, he directly proposed a slowdown. The suggestions were reasonable and well-organized. Such a clear mind was not something that ordinary officials could have.

However, He Xianzu is not able to enter the Military Affairs Office for the time being, and he is not missing from Ryukyu at present. At least before Ryukyu is officially incorporated into the Ming Dynasty, He Xianzu may not be able to leave.

In addition to He Xianzu, there is another suitable candidate, that is, the current Shuntian Prefecture Order Sun Jiagan. As a Jinshi in the first year of Yongye, Sun Jiagan has been extremely steadily following the steps and has been extremely down-to-earth over the years, and he is even more a capable official Zhu Yicheng has always been optimistic about.

Before putting him in the position of Shuntian Prefecture, Zhu Yicheng not only wanted to examine Sun Jiagan's ability, but also prepared to make great use of him. Although the position of Shuntian Prefecture Order is not high, his position is extremely important. Moreover, when the court returns to Beijing, Sun Jiagan will inevitably rise. By then, it will be absolutely fine to become a minister of the Shangshu or a censor at the left and right. It is natural to enter the military plane next.

Unfortunately, Wu Sidao retreated too quickly, and the time has not yet come yet, so it is impossible for Sun Jiagan to replace Wu Sidao. You should know that Sun Jiagan's work in Shuntian Mansion has just started, and there are still many jobs that he needs to implement step by step. If these tasks are replaced by others, Zhu Yicheng will not be relieved.

In addition, there are several candidates, but if these people were either inexperienced or had problems of one kind or another. After thinking about it carefully, Zhu Yicheng could only temporarily put this matter aside. After all, Wu Sidao has left the job as the Military Affairs Office for a while, so he can think about it slowly.

After Wu Sidao left, Zhu Yicheng invited people to ask about the news about Beijing. When he learned that everything was normal in Beijing, there was no difference between the rest, Zhu Yicheng waved his hand and asked the visitor to go down, and then began to think silently.

It has been a while since Zhang Ran and Dong Dashan went to Beijing. The two of them sent someone to send secret documents, which wrote in detail the investigation results and follow-up arrangements for the Huaian matter.

The contents of the two secret letters are roughly the same. On the one hand, they both confirmed the identities of those aliens. At the same time, they also found out that these people were not ordinary Tsarist Russian mercenaries, but soldiers of regular legions.

In addition, Zhang Ran has sent people to Shanxi, Mongolia and other places to inquire about information to ensure that the origin and number of these Russians are clear. Moreover, for Liaodong, there are spies in the Jinyiwei who are investigating in depth. However, because the scope of the areas to be investigated is too wide, and the Jinyiwei is not strong in these places, it will take some time to obtain information.

As for Dong Dashan, he has adjusted the deployment of the northern war zone. Without affecting the overall tactics of the north and south, he is preparing to use a force to march from Huaian to Shanxi. This can not only restrain the Qing Dynasty's military strength in Shanxi, but also directly recruit the enemy to find out the location of the Russians and the army system.

Not only that, in Zhangjiakou and Shanhaiguan areas, the Ming army also began to gather partially and attack appropriately while doing a good job of defense.

Dong Dashan believes that the best defense is offense. The north is different from the south. The Ming Dynasty's border with the Qing Dynasty was too long in the north. In addition, there were also Mongolians standing on the side of the Qing Dynasty. The Mongols' cavalry were extremely mobile. In addition, the elite of the Qing Dynasty and the Russian troops with unknown numbers, if they were just passively defending, they would inevitably lose sight of one thing.

In addition, Dong Dashan also considered that most of the troops placed on the front line of the Great Wall were second-line troops, that is, the surrendered Green Camp and soldiers, and the subsequent recruitment of reorganized and trained troops in the north. Although these troops were slightly stronger than the previous Qing army and had better combat awareness, once the war began, no one could ensure that these troops could stand alone like the elite Ming army. Therefore, Dong Dashan's arrangement was not only the reason mentioned above, but also the idea of ​​planning to train troops in this way.

Zhu Yicheng finally made a recognized approval for these. Since Zhang Ran and Dong Dashan made corresponding arrangements, let them do it. At present, in addition to the sudden appearance of Russians, Zhu Yicheng is more concerned about the major affairs of the north and south. Although the opening of the north and south is progressing smoothly on the surface, it is still in a stalemate.

The Longkodo division in Henan, Yue Zhongqi division in Jiangbei, and the 14th prince in Shandong. Now the tenth prince leads troops out of Sichuan and is faintly connected with Longkodo. Several divisions continue to compete with the Ming army for the area around the Yellow River.

The 14th Prince Yinzhen is now named Prince Cheng. In history, the title of Prince Cheng belongs to the third brother, that is, the third prince. However, the third prince has been encircled by Emperor Jianxing because of the rumors of Kangxi's death in private, and directly demoted from the original prince to Beizi. The hat of Prince Cheng fell on Yinzhen.

The Tenth Prince Yin has always been a hardcore Emperor Jianxing. After Emperor Jianxing ascended the throne, he promoted his original title of prince to prince, and also gave him a salary as a prince.

Yin, who was promoted to Prince Guo, did not disappoint Emperor Jianxing's heavy use. Although he was called "Ten Bags" before, Yin was actually very capable. After Emperor Jianxing sent people to Sichuan to rectify the military power in Sichuan, Yin took a short time to firmly control the military power of the entire Sichuan. Moreover, he also used the "Shangfang Sword" to win over and divide the various factions in Sichuan, which made the Qing court complete the integration of Sichuan in a very short period of time.

Moreover, the reason why Emperor Jianxing was able to finally hold the throne was Yin? It was a great contribution. If he had not led troops to control Xi'an later, the Qing court might have been in chaos for some time due to the death of Kangxi.
