The 148th chapter Daming, it depends on the ministers (1)

Listening to Yuan Chonghuan's hoarse roar, Emperor Chongzhen shook his head slightly. If it weren't for Yuan Chonghuan, the local generals in Liaodong would not have formed a 'quasi-warlord' force.

The Liaodong generals headed by the ancestral family can be said to be spread throughout Liaoqian. They have their people in Shanhaiguan, they have their people in the Liaoxi Corridor, and they have their people in Jinzhou and Ningyuan towns.

Faced with such a known cancer, although he knew that they were domestic thieves and that if they were not eliminated, the situation in Qian Liao would not be clear, the current Emperor Chongzhen could not take immediate action.

If during the arrest of Yuan Chonghuan, the generals of Liaodong are captured, I'm afraid it won't be long before the guys who control the means of production and the elite private army in the pre-Liao Dynasty will switch sides.

'Zu Dashou, I think you are very lucky. If you wait a little longer, I will definitely make you spit out everything you have eaten!'

Looking at Zu Dashou kneeling on one knee in the crowd, Emperor Chongzhen, who was full of thoughts, calmed down and sighed softly: "I'm tired, Sun Qing, please follow my previous decision that military aircraft should be stationed in front of the edict.

Read it out. Then ask those generals who have been transferred to come to the commander-in-chief's tent to see me."

"I am waiting for your order!"

Sun Chengzong, Wang Qia, and Li Banghua hurriedly raised their hands in response.

Ignoring the relatives and generals gathered in front of him, Emperor Chongzhen walked slowly towards the Chinese army commander's tent, surrounded by Zhang Shize and other imperial army vanguards.

After such a long period of time, numerous plans, and many battles with Jianlu, Yuan Chonghuan, a politician who involved many groups, was finally captured without damaging his own prestige.

In the context of mainstream public opinion and the control of the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty, executing Yuan Chonghuan simply and crudely without fully investigating the matter will definitely bring infamy.

Labels such as indecisive and suspicious must not be used on oneself again, otherwise it will be too unfavorable for him to deal with this messed up Ming in future situations.

What he wanted to do was to overthrow Yuan, and what he wanted to do was to kill Yuan, but how to maximize politics was also something that he, the emperor of tomorrow, had to consider.

Han'erzhuang is just the beginning. This time he threatens to win a great victory. After returning to the court, he will use Yuan Chonghuan's case to start a just war, liquidate a group of mediocre officials involved in the Liao Dynasty, and confiscate their homes!!

"Your Majesty, drink some tea and rest your mind."

Wang Chengen carefully handed over a cup of tea, looked at Emperor Chongzhen who was sitting in a chair in a daze, and said, "Your Majesty, you must take care of your dragon body."

"I'm fine."

Taking the cup of tea, Emperor Chongzhen took a sip and said calmly: "Wang Banban, you said that this time when our master returns to the court, how will those ministers react if they know that I have arrested them and the benchmark they have set up?"

"Slave... I don't know very well either."

Wang Chengen was stunned for a moment and said carefully: "Perhaps he will advise the emperor... not to ask the Jinyi Guards to supervise Yuan Chonghuan, but to ask the Sanfa Department to take charge."

"Wang Banban knows very well, doesn't he?"

Emperor Chongzhen smiled, put down the tea cup in his hand, and said to Wang Cheng'en: "This Yuan Chonghuan failed to live up to my expectations of him and deceived me into the lies he spun to achieve his personal goals.

If the Sanfa Division is really asked to be responsible for supervising the affairs, I'm afraid there will be a lot of problems with officials protecting each other. I know the virtues of the ministers in the DPRK very well.

Had it not been for the Jianlu invasion of the Ming Dynasty this time, those self-righteous guys would have deceived the superiors and deceived the inferiors as they did before, and colluded in private to help Yuan Chonghuan overtly and covertly, and not to expose the "Five Years of Ping Liao".

Window paper, I'm afraid I'm still foolishly hoping for the dream of pacifying Liaodong."

Emperor Chongzhen laughed at himself and shook his head. At this stage of the Ming Dynasty, there are too many talkers and too many pragmatists. In such an environment, those who really do practical things are excluded.

Why did my predecessor change so many cabinet ministers and so many senior officials at the ministry level in just a dozen years?

The fundamental reason for this is that the beautiful blueprint drawn up by the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty was so damn good that his predecessor would definitely be frightened and angry when faced with something that he couldn't handle.

Taking countless amounts of money and food, he went to Pingliao to quell the rebellion, but what he got in exchange was a crisis-ridden situation, which was not pleasant for anyone.

"Your Majesty, the ministers in front of the military aircraft department led some generals outside the tent to ask for an audience."

Zhang Shize walked into the commander's tent with an indifferent expression. When he saw Emperor Chongzhen who was deep in thought, he respectfully clasped his fists and saluted.

"Um."

Emperor Chongzhen, whose thoughts were interrupted, looked at Zhang Shize and said, "Xuan and the others come in."

"Here."

Yuan Chonghuan has been arrested by his own design, and his disguise has been stripped off, but the days have to move forward, whether it is the layout of the Liaoqian period or the layout of the Gyeonggi area, all must be done.

"I and other generals/generals, please pay homage to Your Majesty!"

"No gifts."

Emperor Chongzhen tapped the desk, making a "ta, da" sound, and looked at Sun Chengzong and others, observing the changes in their expressions.

It was obvious that Yuan Chonghuan's arrest had a great impact on many people, especially Zu Dashou, Zhao Lijiao, and He Kegang. The impact was huge.

"Although Yuan Chonghuan was arrested by me, no one can take responsibility for this Liaodong matter."

Emperor Chongzhen showed no joy or sorrow on his face, and said coldly: "Faced with the current situation, without prestige in Liaodong and unfamiliar with Liaodong, it is impossible to stabilize the situation in Liaodong in the shortest time. Sun Qing, you have such a heavy responsibility

, are you willing to carry it for me and the country?"

As early as when Zhou Yuji, Chen Jisheng and others "invited" Yuan Chonghuan to come over according to his own oral instructions, Emperor Chongzhen had gone to the front with the military aircraft and discussed in detail his follow-up layout before Liao Dynasty.

Therefore, when these words were spoken, compared to the generals such as Mangui, Zu Dashou, and Zhao Shujiao, who looked surprised and stunned, Sun Chengzong, Wang Qia, and Li Banghua behaved very calmly at this time.

'Your Majesty really wants to reuse Sun Chengzong.'

Even Wang Qia and Li Banghua felt a little emotional in their hearts.

Under the gaze of everyone in the tent, Sun Chengzong took a few steps forward, bowed his hands and said: "I am willing to share your Majesty's worries, and I am willing to curb the arrogance of the captives for the country."

According to Emperor Chongzhen's conception, Liao Qian could no longer spend more money, and the previous money and grain, or the Liao pay assessed, could never be supplied endlessly to Liao Qian.

Until a cancer like Liaodong Jiangmen is eradicated, the practice of throwing money at it will only drag down the already fragile finances of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, stabilizing the situation in front of Liao is the top priority, and at the same time advancing the deep tunnel defense line in front of Liao, and launching a harassment war on the southern flank of Liao. After the situation stabilizes, we can gradually eliminate those cancers, causing Liao to fall into a strange circle.

In the future, we can correct the chaos as soon as possible and return to an active strategic defense posture.

Although Sun Chengzong gave the Ming Dynasty a bad start in quelling the Jianlu rebellion, for Emperor Chongzhen, he still had to use Sun Chengzong. The reason was that this man also had prestige in the Liao Dynasty, and he was the leader of the Liao Dynasty.

The policy of action is also in line with the Pingliao deployment he planned.
