Chapter 1231 The tiger is big, and the people who raise it are also afraid
Wei Liangchen was not on a whim about talking to Yang Hao about the implementation of "changing customs and customs" in Liaodong. He had a purpose because he needed to get the support from the civil servant system.
Regardless of which dynasty or which policy is implemented, specific executors and advocates are required.
The two are nothing more than civil and military affairs.
But eunuchs were independent of civil and military affairs in the Ming Dynasty.
In the past two hundred years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, I have never heard of any eunuch who gave any national policy.
Therefore, Wei Liangchen, who was a "insider", was limited by his identity and had no way to jump to the front desk. No matter how much he promoted it, people in the world would only regard him as a "evil inflicted on evil sayings" and would only call him eunuchs interfering in politics.
This is called natural original sin, and it doesn't matter whether his statement is right or wrong.
Then, in order to successfully implement the policy of changing customs and customs in Liaodong in the future, Wei Liangchen must have a group of civil and military officials who serve as his "white gloves" for Eunuch Wei.
Just like the second uncle, there are also civil and military officials such as "Five Tigers", "Five Biaos", and "Ten Childs" who waved flags and shouted for him, gave him advice, and handled specific affairs for him.
Yang Hao and Xiong Tingbi are future partners that Wei Liangchen tends to be.
There are many similarities between the two. One is from a Jinshi; the other is familiar with the Liaoshi; the third is to be hostile to the Jianzhou Jurchens; the fourth is to have bad tempers, or to act extremely fiercely.
The most important thing is that neither of them is the Donglin Party, and they have become famous border ministers in Liaodong one after another. At the same time, they are not dissatisfied with Li Chengliang and are extremely dissatisfied with his policy of "raising bandits" in Liaodong.
Sadly, these two people were also killed one after another.
Xiong Tingbi's death may be due to party disputes, while Yang Hao's death was purely due to Chongzhen's sake to establish his authority or to inspire propaganda.
What's ridiculous is that Yang Hao was killed, but the Ming Dynasty's record against the Later Jin Dynasty was getting worse and worse. Many Sarhu were not as defeated as Liaodong year after year, nor did it bear the huge losses caused by the Later Jin army's entry into the pass again and again.
You should know that Sarhu was defeated, Yang Hao was still in charge of Shenyang, except for Kaiyuan, Liaodong, and Tieling, two important towns near Jianzhou, were not lost outside the fall. The fall of Kaiyuan and Tieling was not a battle, but was the reason why the Jurchen spies were seized. As for Fushun, it was also because Li Yongfang surrendered.
Even so, Nurhaci's Jianzhou Eight Banners still circulated in Heituala after the great victory and did not dare to raise troops to attack Shenyang. After the disastrous defeat, the Ming army in Liaodong still had an advantage over Jianzhou.
Emperor Wanli of Beijing City was not concerned about this defeat. After receiving the news of the defeat, he was not furious, nor did he pursue Yang Hao's crime of defeat. He only asked Yang Hao to reorganize his troops and clean up the mess.
But Kedao grabbed Yang Hao and kept writing a letter every few days. The censors wanted to kill Yang Hao as if they were trying their best. Wanli could not bear it and had to order Yang Hao to be imprisoned.
Unfortunately, at this time, Wanli's life had reached its end. He died before he could make the latest arrangements for the situation in Liaodong.
Then Yang Hao was imprisoned, and Liaodong became like a domino, instantly deteriorating, which led to Xiong Tingbi's departure from the custody and the subsequent governor Yuan.
Wei Liangchen believed that if Wanli could withstand the pressure of Kedao and temporarily hold Yang Hao up for his defeat, he would still make Yang Hao clean up the situation in Shenyang, and the Liao affairs would not have collapsed into such a situation in the blink of an eye.
Yang Hao is not a qualified Bianshen. Wei Liangchen can see this clearly. Combined with Yang Hao's life, he concluded that this cheap teacher is an excellent logistics officer.
In other words, Yang Hao was a capable civil affairs official, not a commander who led troops. His strengths were military farming, military troops, organizational systems, and winning people's hearts, rather than personally commanding the battle.
This can be seen from North Korea and the Battle of Sarhu that Yang Hao was defeated in both field battles, which shows that he lacked the ability to organize large-scale corps operations.
The situation in Liaodong after Sarhu's defeat was just a chance to show his talents. The reason why he made his fortune in Liaodong was because he helped Dong Yiyuan do a good job in logistics and civil affairs. He continued to do so, and eventually became a famous "border minister" in the court's eyes.
Unfortunately, Yang Hao didn't have a chance.
Now, Wei Liangchen, a cheap student, plans to give this cheap teacher the opportunity, not to let him lead troops to fight, but to let him play to his strengths and be the best "white glove" to implement a good strategy of national integration for him, Eunuch Wei.
Yang Hao was an authentic civil servant. If he could come forward to implement the policy of changing customs and promoting the policy of accumulating customs and replacing the development and service reform in Liaodong, it would reduce a lot of resistance from the court and the local government.
Don’t underestimate Yang Hao’s influence in Liaodong, nor do you underestimate his weight in Wanli’s mind. If Wanli really didn’t value him, he wouldn’t have appointed him to command the army in a few years.
Seven years later, regardless of whether the Battle of Sarhu will happen again, Wei Liangchen hopes that Yang Hao can take the four words of changing customs and customs into his heart.
If you want to destroy a country, your history will be destroyed.
If you want to destroy a clan, you must change the style and change the customs.
War and murder are the worst strategy and the last resort. As a peace lover, Wei Liangchen believed that changing customs is the best strategy.
If this policy is to be implemented in Liaodong, it must first be recognized and supported by the civil servant system.
Yes, Yang Hao, and Xiong Tingbi can do it.
The two of them were very influential in the current court of the Liao Dynasty and their actions in Liaodong. In particular, the latter had just pulled Li Chengliang off the horse. Although there was part of Wei Liangchen's contribution, if Xiong Tingbi had not been the first to participate in the incident, how could the Chu and Zhejiang and other parties work together?
However, at this time, Xiong Manzi seemed to have become a bad temper, as if he had died of a batter and beater. He returned home after checking the incident. His comeback was like Yang Hao, and he waited for seven years, but he took over Yang Hao's stint.
History has a dramatic scene today.
Two figures who had a huge influence on Liaodong and the Ming Dynasty were both impeached and returned home.
In order to further strengthen Yang Hao's understanding and understanding of "changing customs and customs", Wei Liangchen decided to further elaborate on his own point of view.
"Students think that the court should not treat the people of all ethnic groups in Jurchens and their leaders as one, but should treat them differently..."
Wei Liangchen believed that the people of all ethnic groups in the Jurchens and the reactionary minority headed by Nurhaci should never be regarded as one. He believed that most of the Jurchens still love the Ming Dynasty and were sincerely willing to naturalize themselves as members of the Ming Dynasty and become members of the Han nationality. This can be seen from the fact that there are many "mature Jurchens" who speak Chinese language, wear Hanfu and write Chinese characters in Liaodong.
For example, Wei Liangchen's mistress Guarjia's family is very good in Chinese? Before becoming Shurhaqi Fujin, the Guarjia family was no different from the Han people, and even looked down on those compatriots with the rat tail of money "bringing Jurchens".
Even the Nurhaci family had a very high degree of sinicization. During the Ming Dynasty's war against the Later Jin Dynasty, many Jurchen generals and soldiers fought to the death for the Ming Dynasty.
Advanced civilizations are always attractive to backward civilizations.
The historical process should be the integration of advanced civilizations into backward civilizations. If the so-called civilization that cannot keep up with the development of the times, it should be left to fend for itself and eliminated by the times, rather than saving, discovering, and diversifying.
However, even the backward civilizations have a privileged class. In Jianzhou, the current reactionary group led by Nurhaci.
The people of Jianzhou fished and exploited the people of their own nations, and in order to gain greater wealth, they did not hesitate to kidnap the people of Jianzhou to launch a war, causing the lives to be miserable, and hundreds of millions of people were buried under the butcher knives. Their existence hurts the people of Jianzhou and the people of other ethnic groups, so they must be severely cracked down on them.
Changing customs and customs is a good policy for the people of all ethnic groups in the Jurchens to achieve a well-off life. Whoever dares to oppose this policy is the public enemy of the Jianzhou people!
"Students imagine that when changing customs and customs, they would build sanctuaries at intersections in Liaodong. They would erect a flagpole next to the shed, and hang official documents of "Haida and Reform Coupons" to be read to the people of all ethnic groups and let them know. To increase publicity, not only should we accumulate development and reform Coupons, but we should also change the surnames of Han, recognize Chinese characters, and speak Chinese. The government should treat these Jurchen people who are sincerely naturalized and willing to learn, and treat them equally. They should truly regard them as my Ming people... But whoever dares not raise their hair or incites the people to cause trouble and resist the government will have to cut off their heads and hang them on the flagpole..."
"…In the countryside, villages, and mountains and forests... we should send people to the public. When they see those who shave their hair, they would hold their heads down and chop them down without asking any questions. At the same time, we should mobilize those Chinese-styled personnel who have been integrated into the Ming Dynasty, give them power, grant them officials, and let them mobilize them... At the same time, we should encourage the people of Liaodong to intermarry with these naturalized Chinese people, so that their descendants can receive education and take exams to become officials..."
Wei Liangchen was so casual that he even said some of the specific implementation methods, which made Yang Hao stunned. But after careful consideration, what Wei Liangchen said was actually the policies that had been in history. There were relevant provisions of this policy at the beginning of the founding of the country, but the more he went, the less he could not continue to implement them.
The reason is still the word "interest".
Even if the Jurchen tribe is gone today, all Han people will be Han people, and there will be other tribes in the future.
Of course, Wei Liangchen also knew that there was not a single Jurchen in the world. If one Jurchen was solved, it would not mean that one Jurchen could be in peace and stability for a long time and would be boundless.
But he believed that as long as the Ming Dynasty was closely united under the banner of the "eunuch party" led by him, actively integrated into the trend of the times, and looked at the world, no matter how many border troubles were, it would not be enough to shake the foundation of China.
"Of course, these are all random thoughts of students. If the teacher can make a comeback in the future, there will be a more secure way." Wei Liangchen realized that he had said too much, which was really impatient. Once the bastard policies of the new Liaodong Governor Zhang Tao were implemented, it will only further encourage the Jurchens to escape from the Ming Dynasty and will also quickly make the people of Liaodong Han feel disappointed.
There has never been a country in this world that suppresses the main nation and can maintain long-term stability.
Yang Hao did not comment on what Wei Liangchen said, but only shook his head, but did not know that he had no chance to make a comeback, but that Wei Liangchen's method was not good.
"It is rare for a teacher to come to Beijing. Let's continue to arrange the students. The teacher will stay in Beijing for a few more days."
Wei Liangchen knew that Yang Hao had many old friends in the capital, so he wanted to take the opportunity to get to know these people, get familiar with each other first, and make friends with everyone.
Unexpectedly, Yang Hao said that he would not go to Beijing and would go back to his hometown in Shangqiu tomorrow.
"Why are the teacher so anxious?" Wei Liangchen was puzzled.
"I'm just a teacher who has left the burden. I'm going to Beijing. Kedao still has to hold on to me and refuse to let go. Why? Do you, Eunuch Wei, still want to go to the imperial prison for your teacher?"
Yang Hao laughed at himself. Although the emperor didn't care whether he left or not, he gave up his official position without authorization in the process. If no one grabbed you, there was no one to force you. If someone really wanted to take the lead, he would have to go to the prison.
The famous artifacts of the imperial court are you who want them and who want them if you say you don’t want them?
"I know that you have some insights into Liao affairs and are particularly concerned about Liaodong affairs, so I have to tell you something for you."
Yang Hao told Wei Liangchen that he learned something before he hung the seal, that was that the Jurchen Yehe tribe had sent someone to Beijing to meet Li Chengliang.
"Li Chengliang did not attach much importance to Ye He's tribe during the Liao Dynasty, and only focused on supporting Jianzhou. Jianzhou was arguing against Ye He's several wars. What did Ye He's tribe do when he saw him?"
Wei Liangchen also felt strange. Because of Li Chengliang's pulling and protecting, Ye He's tribe was suppressed by Jianzhou and it was difficult for him to look up. Dong Ge even wanted to assassinate Li Chengliang. What would his Ye He's tribe do when he saw Li Chengliang?
I secretly wondered if Brother Dong is really in Beijing?
Yang Hao sneered: "A tiger is raised, and those who raise tigers are also afraid."
"What the teacher means is that Li Chengliang is now afraid of Jianzhou and wants to support Ye He?" Wei Liangchen asked.
"Li Chengliang is like walking on a tightrope. He wants to raise a tiger as a disaster, and also guard against a tiger to hurt himself. Therefore, he must raise more wolves in addition to raising a tiger. If the tiger backfires, there will be several wolves to help him block it."
Yang Hao's words reminded Wei Liangchen of the Battle of Sarhu that Ye He's troops sent more than 10,000 troops.
"I am not sure about this matter. If you want to know the details, you might as well ask the old lady Ye He." Yang Hao suddenly said.
Wei Liangchen was stunned. He didn't know how Yang Hao knew about Brother Dong. Then he thought that it was Jiang Fangyin who told him that he had introduced Ye He as an important source of goods to Jiang Fangyin and Zhang Guoji.
"You are favored by Your Majesty now, no more than a teacher, a returning home. But you must remember that if you want to accomplish things, you must be strong yourself. Others cannot be able to defeat others, so that you can defeat others."
Yang Hao said as he stood up and asked Wei Liangchen to explain to Jiang Fangyin and the others about the meeting of the people in Jinzhou. Wei Liangchen hurriedly stood up to honor Yang Hao's 3,000 taels of silver bills, saying that it was a way to give to the teacher.
Yang Hao touched his bald head, and took it directly without hesitation, he said, "I am not an official now. It is not a law to collect some money from students. I think I can't impeach me, a person without an official, even if I come to the Department, I know that I can't impeach me."
Wei Liangchen laughed and said a few words. Yang Hao asked him to do his own business, and he was about to see someone elsewhere.
Wei Liangchen hurriedly stepped down respectfully and discussed with Jiang Fangyin, Wang Weidong and Zhang Hu about the matter of taking over the people in Jinzhou.
According to Jiang Fangyin, the guerrilla Shang Xueli of the Zhongzuo Institute of Jinzhou was Yang Hao's old subordinate. Yang Hao had written a letter to him to arrange it, so there would be no problem.
"Eunuch Wei will see when will I go to Jinzhou?" Zhang Hu asked. He was worried that the night would be long and dreams would be too long. If the new Liao Fu Zhang Tao knew that there would be difficulties in this matter.
Wei Liangchen calculated and told the three that he would leave Beijing and go to Tianjin Wei seven days later, and then his fleet headed north and went directly to the Zhongzuo of Jinzhou to pick up people.
In fact, Wei Liangchen did not need to go there personally when receiving someone, because he wanted to inspect Dongjiang Town. There is no town in Dongjiang at present and it is still undeveloped. If possible, Wei Liangchen wanted to set up a base in Dongjiang, thinking that Liao incident will be prepared in the future.
After deciding to take over the person, Wei Liangchen asked Jiang Fangyin to follow him to Beijing, while Wang Weidong, Zhang Hu and others went directly to Tianjin to wait for the marquis.
"By the way, who are the teacher going to meet?"
After leaving Tiancheng Restaurant, Wei Liangchen asked Jiang Fangyin casually.
Jiang Fangyin hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Fang Congzhe."
