Chapter 110 Wang Huazhen
Chapter 110 Wang Huazhen
When Wang Huazhen rushed to Liaodong, the court's intention was sent by the Ministry of War to Liaodong. In addition to the new Liaodong governor, they also sent a rebuke to the original generals. Since Wang Huazhen was to replace Sun Chengzong, of course, he had to say bad things about Sun Chengzong, and of course he would also bring generals like Zhao Shujiao who had been under Sun Chengzong's command for many years. Of course, this rebuke was mostly just a gesture, so that these generals could understand that the court had dismissed Sun Chengzong from now on, and it was very good that you could not be implicated. Next, we should assist Wang Huazhen and manage this area in Liaodong well.
This was just a threat from the eunuch party to these old subordinates of Sun Chengzong, which was to establish a power for Wang Huazhen. But they made a mistake and backfire. After seeing this, even Yuan Chonghuan, who had always been very stern, couldn't help but curse a few times. They knew how difficult it was to be able to defend these cities now. The court not only did not reward them, but instead made the general punishment, which made them a little annoyed. When they knew that Wang Huazhen was coming, they felt even more disdainful.
You should know that although Wang Huazhen got the help of the eunuch party and pushed all the mistakes to Xiong Tingbi, thus making himself a wronged person. However, this can only be used to deceive those who do not know the truth. In Liaodong, many people have experienced the failure of Guangning. Wang Huazhen's various mistakes were naturally spread by them. Everyone knew that he was just a person who was eager for quick success and had no real talent and knowledge. In addition, he replaced Sun Chengzong with the help of the eunuch party, which made the soldiers more prejudiced against him. Therefore, before Wang Huazhen arrived in Liaodong, he had completely lost the trust of the Liaodong soldiers.
Tang Feng sat upright in the hall of the command post, watching Zhao Rujiao walking around in front of him, and finally said with some patience: "Brother Xilong, don't you be impatient. Now that Wang Huazhen comes to my Liaodong to do this strategy, it is impossible to change. Why do you have to be so anxious again?"
Zhao Rujiao stopped suddenly, and then sighed, "Yizhi, you don't know the character of this person. I have seen his eagerness for success back then. Back then, he was just the governor of Liaodong, and he could disregard Xiong Tingbi, the Liaodong governor, and sent troops without hesitation, which led to the fall of Guangning and the death of tens of thousands of troops. Now that he has become the Liaodong governor, this is not a blessing for us. If he wants to compete for success again, I am afraid that everything the commander has done over the years will be destroyed in his hands. How can I calm down?"
Although Tang Feng didn't know much about Guangning's failure, he also understood that there was a big mistake in Wang Huazhen, otherwise he wouldn't have been shameless to ask for the eunuch party. Now that he came to Liaodong again, it was indeed a disaster. Seeing that Tang Feng didn't speak, Zhao Shujiao rubbed his hands and said, "Yizhi, I know you have always been very wise. Can you think you can come up with an idea to drive this person out of Liaodong and then you will take the position of management temporarily? In this way, my Liaodong will feel at ease."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Rujiao was so optimistic about him, which made Tang Feng feel a little moved, but he could only hit the other party's kindness. Because Tang Feng knew his identity as an embarrassing person, in the eyes of the eunuch party members, he was still a chess piece they arranged in Liaodong. If he took the lead in making things difficult for Wang Huazhen and the eunuch party members to know, he might immediately follow Sun Chengzong's footsteps. He does not have the deep foundation of Sun Chengzong, and Wei Zhongxian and others have to deal with him. So Tang Feng knew that not only could he not take the lead against Wang Huazhen, but also had to stand on his side on the surface.
"Yizhi, you're replying." Seeing that Tang Feng ignored his words, Zhao Rujiao called out again. Then he pulled Tang Feng out of his thoughts. He smiled bitterly: "I am just a military supervisor now. How can I control this military power? Moreover, Wang Huazhen came with the will. If you and I become enemies with him as soon as he came, the charge of despising the court will be confirmed. In order for me, Liaodong, there will be no more damage, I think we should not have conflicts with Wang Huazhen on the surface, unless he resurfaces and acts to disrupt my overall situation. However, I think after that Guangning defeat, he should have learned a lesson. The problem of eagerness for quick success and instant benefits should have changed, right?"
After thinking about Tang Feng's words, Zhao Rujiao felt that it was still right. First, he could not afford to take on the charge of despising the court, and second, if Sun Chengzong, who had no military power, would have gone to see Sun Dashen again because of their actions. So after thinking for a long time, Zhao Rujiao nodded and said, "Yizhi, what you said is really, I am indeed too extreme. As long as Wang Huazhen came for my Ming Dynasty, I will definitely not be embarrassed again."
"That's great!" Tang Feng smiled relaxedly. But he felt that things would not be that simple. Although the situation of Wang Huazhen's replacement of Sun Chengzong was different from the facts in history, he still did not think that history would not reappear. But the same thing, Tang Feng would not sit and watch the tragedy happen.
After understanding Zhao Lu Sect's psychology, Tang Feng went to Ningyuan again, told Yuan Chonghuan his thoughts, and asked him to help him persuade the generals of Liaodong. After all, Yuan Chonghuan was not ordinary martial artists who only knew how to fight. After listening to Tang Feng's analysis, he also understood the truth. So he helped Tang Feng persuade the generals who were trying to make things difficult for Wang Huazhen. With the help of Yuan Chonghuan, a person who had been in Liaodong for many years, the generals finally accepted Tang Feng's intention and put the dissatisfaction aside first. Everything was put in the overall situation of Liaodong first.
When Tang Feng persuaded him to return to Shanhaiguan, Wang Huazhen had already arrived one step earlier, which was somewhat similar to when Tang Feng first arrived in Shanhaiguan and Sun Chengzong inspected everywhere.
When Tang Feng saw Wang Huazhen, he felt a little strange. This strange feeling was because of his appearance. Tang Feng thought that he should be around fifty years old, but now when he saw his weather-beaten face, Tang Feng felt that he was not a few years younger than Sun Chengzong. Of course, Tang Feng was also easy to understand. In recent years, Wang Huazhen was imprisoned and suffered afflicted, and it was normal for him to grow old quickly. As for the second point, this person was very respectful to him and called him Lord Tang, as if he had completely forgotten that he was the Liaodong governor. Seeing his respectful and cautious look, Tang Feng felt that the decision he had made before was correct. Now he was afraid that he would not dare to have the thoughts he had done back then.
When the banquet ended, Wang Huazhen still pulled Tang Feng and talked nonstop. Even the Zhao Lu Sect on the side could not stand it anymore. He felt that he and the former governor of Liaodong were completely different. If he really wanted to deal with such an incompetent person, the Zhao Lu Sect felt that he could not take action. Later, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he found an excuse to leave first. When the other generals who were accompanying each other stood up to say goodbye when they saw General Zhao leaving, they all stood up to say goodbye. After a while, only Tang Feng and Wang Huazhen were left in the hall. Tang Feng wanted to leave with them, but it was not easy to refute the other party's face so obviously.
Seeing that all the generals had left, a hint of undetectable pride flashed in Wang Huazhen's eyes. He said, "Mr. Tang, I will ask you to cooperate more in all the military and political affairs in Liaodong in the future."
Tang Feng hurriedly agreed a few times, but he was obviously a little absent-minded. At this time, the flattering look on Wang Huazhen's face suddenly faded and said seriously: "Master Tang, you should know that I came to Liaodong after the order of Eunuch Wei. I hope you can help me more in the future so that you can live up to the importance of Eunuch Wei and others on you and me."
"It turns out that he knew that I was a member of the eunuch party. The reason why I did this was to say a few words to me alone. It seems that this person is not as simple as it seems." Tang Feng thought in his heart, but smiled and said, "Since you are also valued by Eunuch Wei, I, Tang Feng, will do my best to help you. I, Mr. Wang, have anything you need to tell me to do?"
"I dare not take the order." Wang Huazhen said as he approached Tang Feng and whispered: "I know that the generals in Liaodong now have a lot of prejudice towards me. I just hope that Lord Tang can help me say a few good words and eliminate their views on me."
Tang Feng hurriedly said, "I will do this without the help of the lord. It's just that the lords come to Liaodong for only a few months, and it's not enough to affect the likes and dislikes of these soldiers. If there is something missing, please forgive me!"
"As long as you are willing to do your best, I, Mr. Tang, will definitely remember my great help to you." Wang Huazhen said immediately, and then he said, "Your Lord Tang and I will fall in love with you at first sight. Why don't you go to this kind of polite words in the officialdom in the future? How much of my age is you, how about calling you Brother Tang?"
Of course, Tang Feng had no objection to this and hurriedly said, "Since Brother Wang, you are very kind, I have to refuse it. But it's okay to call this title privately. When I arrived in front of the army, I dare not be so arrogant. After all, Brother Wang is my Liaodong manager, and I hold the power of military power."
"Brother Tang, you are too modest. If you are so young, you will be appreciated by Eunuch Wei. You will definitely have a bright future in the future. I would call you brother, but I would be accomplicing you." He laughed as he said that. Tang Feng could only laugh a few times.
After the two of them drank a while, Tang Feng sent Wang Huazhen back to the lower place. After Wang Huazhen thanked Tang Feng for sending him off, he walked into the bedroom. As soon as he entered the room, the smile on his face was closed, and his eyes became deeper, and he had no previous flattering look...
