In the memorial, Hong Chengchou proposed to the court that Wu Shigong and his Runing Army should be brought under his own account. Wu Shigong should also be severely punished for his disrespect to Hong Chengchou.

In fact, what Hong Chengchou proposed is a paradox. If Wu Shigong and Runing's army are to be brought under Hong Chengchou's account, then Wu Shigong must be given an official position and included in the Ming Dynasty bureaucracy; but if Wu Shigong's crime is to be punished, those fines

, methods such as reducing officials cannot be adopted. The imperial court may not necessarily promote Wu Shigong first, and then remove all Wu Shigong's official positions. Isn't that child's play?

In fact, of course Hong Chengchou also knew that his proposal was a paradox. He just handed over this thorny problem and let Emperor Chongzhen and the important officials in the court worry about this thorny issue.

But then the memorial from Xuan Mo, the governor of Henan, came again, and in his memorial he mentioned the issue of Wu Shigong and Runing's army.

Xuanmo first explained to the court how he and the Henan officers and soldiers dealt with the second peasant rebel army that entered Henan. He also explained to the court emphatically that because he had to protect Kaifeng, Luoyang and other important cities along the Yellow River, Xuanmo had no choice but to

The main force of the Henan official army was placed along the Yellow River.

Then we talked about the Runing Army. Of course, Xuanmo also explained that under his command, the Runing Army overcame difficulties such as a small number of troops and a large defensive area. It defeated the peasant rebels several times and won the victory.

Fruitful results. Only because the peasant rebel army was really powerful and created a defensive gap, they escaped from Runing Mansion to Fengyang.

Here, Xuan Mo said something fair for Runing Jun: Those who made some mistakes in the work will be criticized, but those who did not work will be fine. Then who will be willing to work for the court in the future? Of course, Xuan Mo

Mo Ye unceremoniously took the credit for commanding the victory of the Runing Army on himself.

At the end of the memorial, Xuanmo also proposed to the court that Wu Shigong should be restored to official position and included in the bureaucratic system, the number of troops in the Runing Army should be increased, and the military personnel should be fully paid according to their treatment.

Xuanmo's reason is also very simple: the fall of Fengyang this time was due to Xuanmo's poor command of the Runing Army. If Xuanmo could directly command the Runing Army, then the Runing Army might have time to react and respond in time.

Fended off the peasant rebels and saved Fengyang.

Of course Xuan Mo knew about the impeachment of Wu Shigong by his subordinate officials. He was giving timely help and showing favor to Wu Shigong. Of course, Xuan Mo was not willing to give up the Runing Army to Hong Chengchou. He wanted Wu Shigong to lead the Runing Army to pacify Henan.

.

It's strange that Wu Shigong at this time was like a piece of fragrant steamed bun, which caused a fight between Hong Chengchou and Xuan Mo.

The memorials from these two heavyweight ministers made Emperor Chongzhen and the important officials of the imperial court hesitate. Could it be that after Wu Shigong had committed so many crimes, if he still wanted to be promoted to a higher rank, wouldn't that encourage his misbehavior?

At this moment, the impeachment memorial of King Chong arrived. Emperor Chongzhen took a look: Seal the temple, rob the princess, and beat the people in the palace. After looking at it, even Emperor Chongzhen took a breath. This is probably the son-in-law of Xue Hou

He was so bold that he even did such lawless things, which angered the feudal lord who had previously monopolized this industry.

However, Emperor Chongzhen was also puzzled. What did Wu Shigong want to do with such a frenzied mind? He had never noticed that he had lost his mind before. If something goes wrong, there will be a monster.

It was Wang Chengen who solved Emperor Chongzhen's doubts. He simply said: "Then Xuehou's son-in-law is deliberately committing a crime. He wants to escape back to the capital!"

Emperor Chongzhen suddenly realized that according to the normal procedures, Wu Shigong should be severely punished according to the charges. However, Wu Shigong had not committed any crime that warranted imprisonment or beheading, so Wu Shigong should be taken back to the capital and detained in his own house for supervision.

.

Especially the princess. She has never been canonized in the first place, and she is an unreachable relative of Emperor Chongzhen. It was okay to ignore it. But now as soon as it is made public, the court has to canonize the title of the princess of the county.

, and out of royal dignity, Wu Shigong was asked to find a way to reveal that the matchmaker was marrying her.

As for how Wu Shigong should prove to the matchmaker that he is marrying, let’s not talk about it for now. The most important thing is that the court had to give Wu Shigong, the guest of honor, a honorary position. Doesn’t this mean that Wu Shigong will still have the official position that he just deprived of? Oh! That’s right! Then

Wu Shigong was originally a white man, so wasn't this a gift of honor to him?

More importantly, Wu Shigong could finally escape war-torn Henan through this conviction and return to the capital to enjoy his happiness.

It turned out that the son-in-law had this kind of wishful thinking! Emperor Chongzhen was immediately furious, and he immediately decided that not only could he not punish Wu Shigong, but he would also be promoted. So Emperor Chongzhen immediately discussed with the cabinet and the six ministers and decided

: All the things Wu Shigong committed were equal to their merits and demerits, and Wu Shigong was awarded the title of deputy general based on his remaining merits.

As for the princess, she was retained in King Chong's memorial because there was no real evidence. At this time, Wu Shigong and his Runing army were needed to fight, so King Chong would not cause trouble.

The world is really big and full of wonders! Wu Shigong was promoted because of the emperor's anger. This is the first time in history. You all tell me how many records Wu Shigong has set and how many firsts he has? Wu Shigong himself

Unexpectedly, when I wanted to be promoted, I was pushed to the end. I no longer wanted to be an official, and my deputy general hat fell from the sky.

All other officials were impeached, and the governor of Ruzhou also returned to the Ministry of Personnel to select officials as usual. Because Ruzhou is also an important place, let Wu Shigong's number one enemy Yu Zilian not go back to the Ministry of Personnel, but go directly to succeed him. Anyway

This time Yu Zilian is also going to be promoted, so he should supervise the perimeter of the Runing Army. Therefore, the imperial court will never relax its vigilance against military attachés.

At this time, Wu Shigong had no idea that this was a pie in the sky. He was waiting for Hong Chengchou's army to go to Xinyang.

From the moment they entered Runing Prefecture, Hong Chengchou's army felt strong hostility. Although local officials, led by Runing Magistrate Guan Kesong, greeted them at the border, even though Guan Kesong presented five thousand stones as military rations.

, but along the march, groups of people wearing civilian clothes monitored every move of the army, always reminding Hong Chengchou's army not to violate discipline.

"His grandma! Look at me like a thieves. I don't believe they really dare to use the knife." A Qian Boss finally couldn't help but get angry. He took dozens of his own soldiers and wanted to cross the border.

A team of "Minzhuang" who are monitoring the situation are going to go for a walk and hunt for grass and other things if there is a chance.

"Stop!" the "Minzhuang" leader who led the team immediately shouted to stop the approaching of those people, "Fellow soldiers, please understand that it is the period of young crops, and the fields cannot be trampled, so please keep walking along the main road!

"

"What young people are you?" President Qian suddenly became angry, "I am going to fight the traitors. If anyone dares to stop me, I will treat him like a traitor!"

The other generals in Hong Chengchou's army watched the conflict with cold eyes. President Qian was just testing the situation. As long as the "strong people" in Runing Mansion softened, they would immediately let go and go wild.

This "Minzhuang" team had a small number of people, just over 200 people. As soon as they saw General Qian approaching, they immediately formed two square formations and prepared their weapons.

"What? You want to take action?" Although Mr. Qian still had an arrogant tone, he still stopped with his soldiers.

The leader of "Minzhuang" on the opposite side was not moved at all. He held a whistle in his mouth and waited coldly for President Qian's move.

"Come back!" shouted a lieutenant in the back.

The Chief Qian was a subordinate of the deputy general. After hearing the order, he immediately retreated and returned to his own team. However, the Chief Qian was still tough. He muttered: "Sir, please wait for me."

Go up there and try their skills. Even though they look like dogs, they will definitely have diarrhea when they see blood."

The deputy general snorted and said, "It's not certain who has diarrhea. Didn't you see that? They are soldiers!"

Only then did Mr. Qian notice the demeanor of those "people strong". They had no intention of retreating at all, and there was still a desire for battle in their eyes. Mr. Qian couldn't help but shudder. These people

Not only soldiers, but also veterans who have fought in wars and seen blood.

"Fuck! Where did this damn place come from with so many soldiers!" President Qian cursed angrily.

"We'd better not be the first to take the lead. Just wait! Those brazen brats from Liaodong are going to fight the local soldiers sooner or later. We'd better fish in troubled waters on the sidelines!" said the lieutenant.

During the march of Hong Chengchou's army, such phenomena occurred one after another. However, due to the restraint of both sides, no conflicts occurred. At most, they were stopped by their respective generals after the two sides took a stance.

Hong Chengchou also turned a blind eye to this. If his army went too far, of course he would stop it; but proper testing is also a way to judge the strength of the Runing Army. And Hong Chengchou also believed that the most likely conflict with the Runing Army was

The three thousand Guan Ning cavalry led by Zu Kuan.

However, to the surprise of Hong Chengchou and other generals, the always arrogant Guan Ning Cavalry was like a good baby. They all moved along the march route obediently without doing anything wrong. They were all old acquaintances of Wu Shigong.

, how dare you take action on the territory of the Runing Army?

Think about what Wu Shigong did in Denglai! He fought with friendly troops, decapitated friendly soldiers to claim credit, competed with Guan Ning's cavalry for trophies, beat Wu Sangui, the rising star of Guan Ning's cavalry, and blatantly resisted the commander Zhu Dadian's surrender of captured military orders.

.... With all this being said, how could the Guan Ning Cavalry Army not be frightened even if they knew about Wu Shigong?

And now we are still at the home ground of the Runing Army. The Guan Ning Cavalry has gone crazy before provoking Wu Shigong. To sum it up with Zu Kuan’s words: "Then God will bless us if Madman Wu doesn’t come to provoke us!" (To be continued.
