Chapter 138: Biography and Nine Sides

Shanhaiguan, also known as Yuguan, Yuguan and Linluguan, is one of the northeastern passes of the Ming Great Wall. It is known as the "No. 1 Pass in the World". It echoes Jiayuguan thousands of miles away and is famous all over the world.

The Governor of Ji Liao, Wang Xianggan, has been moving to the mountains and seas for more than a month. The war in Guangning ended, and he felt relieved. There was no need to worry that Jiannu would knock on the gate.

A few days later, the court issued an imperial edict, saying that Wang Xianggan had stepped down and returned to Beijing, and waited for Wu Yong to come and hand over the handover in Shanhaiguan.

Wang Xianggan didn't want to do this Governor of Ji Liao.

Although the Governor of Ji Liao is very powerful, the responsibility is also very serious. Many officials in the court saw it as a daunting place in frontiers, including him.

After receiving the imperial edict, Wang Xianggan felt quite relieved and waited for Wu Yong to take over. He returned to Beijing with great ease.

Today, Wu Yongxian rushed to Shanhaiguan with his people. The speed was so fast that Wang Xianggan was surprised.

Zhu Youxiao is not optimistic about Wang Xianggan. After the war started in Guangning, he was not good at changing players at the last minute, so he could only make a temporary decision.

When the Guangning war ended, Zhu Youxiao discussed with Sun Chengzong and others to reorganize the northern arms, including the replacement of the governor of Ji Liao, Wang Xianggan.

According to the "Da Ming Hui Dian", the full name of the Governor of Ji Liao is the military affairs of the Governor of Ji Liao Baoding and other departments, and also manages food and money. It also controls the four towns of Shuntian, Baoding, Liaodong, and Baoding.

When Wu Yong first arrived to hand over and took over the imperial edict, Wang Xianggan learned that the court had already set aside the Liaodong Governor and Liaodong Town controlled by the Governor of Ji Liao.

Wang Xianggan was a little surprised at this, but Wu Yongxian disagreed.

Moreover, Wu Yongxian was not afraid of difficulties. He didn't know whether he was loyal to the state or pretending to be in front of Wang Xianggan.

"Mr. Wu stayed in his home for eight years because of illness. He was just called the Minister of Works. He heard that he was the young minister of Jin (the Minister of Personnel), but why was he changed his order to the governor of Ji Liao?" Wang Xianggan was indirect and wanted to inquire about the political trends of the capital.

Wu Yong smiled first and said, "This is recommended by Lord Sun, Minister of War. Maybe you can see that someone has made little achievements when he was in Sichuan!"

Wu Yongxian was considered an unknown figure, but he also started from the grassroots level. When he was governor of Sichuan, he quelled the riots of Miao chiefs, and was more familiar with military affairs among civil servants.

Since Zhu Youxiao proposed the Jiliao branch, the court has discussed several times and introduced Wang Zaijin and Yan Mingtai, which were all rejected by Zhu Youxiao.

Historically, although Wang Zaijin was a consenting strategic contraction, he did not have a far-reaching strategic vision, but believed that "it is better to protect the mountains and seas if you can achieve broad peace and cannot defend it, and it is better to protect the mountains and seas than to protect the mountains and seas."

This is very different from Zhu Youxiao’s perspective of God, and it is also very different from the real intention of strategic contraction. Contraction is not to fear the enemy, but to accumulate strength, consolidate the army and prepare for a smooth wave.

Needless to say, Yan Mingtai has no talent, and he annoyed Zhu Youxiao when he sees the name.

Zhu Youxiao was also helpless. Although Jian had extracted some talents and reorganized the cabinet, young people needed experience. The elderly could not trust them much, but they only found that there were still fewer ones when they were used!

Especially important officials like the Governor of Ji Liao, who cannot serve without a certain level and qualifications.

The third court recommendation was Wu Yongxian, who had just recovered from illness and was appointed as the Minister of Works at the time. He had experience in managing the army and quelling the rebellion.

Zhu Youxiao didn't know him, and it was difficult to judge just by looking at his resume, so he adopted a new approach. He sent Wu Yong to Ji Liao first to walk around, and then finally confirmed the memorial on how to manage the previous path.

Wu Yongxian was very happy and immediately took people out of Beijing. Within ten days, he experienced Ji and Chang and submitted memorials to express suggestions.

"...According to what I have seen, it is not a difficult situation outside the pass, but also a difficult situation inside the pass. The three internal cooperations take the selection of generals and training troops as the key, and the construction of walls and platforms as the urgent task; the need to ease the general and suppress the general, and the mutual use of war and defense is the decision; the official is to respect simple and keep the agreement, cherish the army and love the people..."

Zhu Youxiao was not surprised or disappointed with Wu Yongxian’s memorial. He was just average and was basically qualified!

As long as you can stabilize the northern defense line first, change the new army's training and uniforms, and build muskets and cannons, it will be considered that Zhu Youxiao's goal will be achieved.

Seeing that Wu Yong didn't say much, Wang Xianggan stopped asking questions in depth and handled the normal handover. Seeing that the several staff members Wu Yongxian were very young, he asked casually when he was curious.

"Mr. Wang doesn't know that these young talents are learning from their officials to observe politics."

Wu Yongxian smiled and called several young people over, and introduced them one by one: "The new science and technology is the second most popular in martial arts, Peng Hua, and Zhang Jingping, the third most popular in the science and technology are the first in the science and technology..."

Lu Xiangsheng and others paid a visit and said, "I have met Lord Wang."

"No need to be polite." Wang Xiang nodded with a dry smile and said, "Young people are terrifying, but you are terrifying! They are all pillars of the country chosen by the emperor. You must be diligent in the king's affairs and serve the court."

Young talents bowed to the teachings and went to work hard.

Wang Xianggan watched the few people leave, stroked his beard and said, "The emperor attaches great importance to this imperial examination! The promotion of martial arts is something that this dynasty has never seen before."

Wu Yong pondered for a moment and said, "That's true. The teaching and teaching of the palace were all the questions and the emperor personally gave the test papers."

Wang Xianggan was disappointed again, and the court reported that he had read it. For more than a month, the number of officials in the capital had been resigned, demoted, and imprisoned was really shocking.

But Wu Yong didn't say much and didn't reveal any more things at all. He could only let Wang Xianggan guess and figure out the direction of the capital.

In fact, Wu Yongxian was also confused and was difficult to figure out how the court would move in the future. But he was a serious person. Since he had assigned a job, he would do his best to do his best.

At the time of handover, soldiers came to report that the vehicle carrying the rebel general Sun Degong's head was closed.

The whole family was executed and the heads were passed on to the nine borders. This was Zhu You's handling of the rebel general Sun Degong, and it was also a shock to the Ming border army.

Wang Xianggan and Wu Yong suspended the handover first, or Wang Xianggan ordered the troops from Shanhaiguan to gather together to watch the fate of the rebel general.

When the horse-drawn wooden cart creaked and walked into the schoolyard, a shocking, miserable, and creepy picture was presented in the eyes of the officers and soldiers.

The heads that were pickled with lime were placed in wooden cages and placed on the car, presenting various terrible expressions before death, pale and full of death.

There are also wooden signs nailed to the wooden cage at the top of the table, which shows the relationship between the beheaded and Sun Degong.

The white-haired one is Sun Degong's mother, and the one who loses her charm during her lifetime is Sun Degong's daughter, Sun Degong's son, wife and concubine.

In the cars behind were the heads of the rebels who followed Sun Degong's rebellion, including officers and soldiers, showing various ugly and horrifying appearances.
