Chapter 413: The Warlord Is Also a Veteran General

Soon, Hong Niangzi, Zhu Dadian, Yang Tinglin, Bi Jie and others came to Wuying Hall one after another.

At the same time, Zhu Mei also asked someone to set up the video projection and asked Li Yan, who was in Chengdu, to lead important military officials to participate in this very important military meeting.

This is the first time that Zhu Dadian and Yang Tinglin participated in this kind of meeting to communicate with Chengdu through video projection. Even though they have seen many other "treasures" in later generations, they are still shocked at this time.

As important officials, they were all informed that Zhu Ma went to "later generations" rather than "immortal world".

They could not understand how this incredible creation could have been seen. It was only three or four hundred years later that the future generations could have created so many magical and incredible things.

Their Ming Dynasty was three or four hundred years away from the Tang and Song dynasties, but the environment in which people live today is not much different than that in the Tang and Song dynasties.

I really don't understand...

"In June, Liu Wenxiu led two battalions of imperial guards to Hangzhou, and was received and resettled by Zhejiang Governor Zhang Bingzhen, officials of the General Secretary of the General Office, as well as officials of Hangzhou Prefecture.

This shows that the main officials in Zhejiang are still willing to obey the imperial court's orders, at least on the surface.

However, last year, some official generals in Zhejiang were indeed arrogant and did not obey the imperial court's orders, and they imply separatist.

This time, I ordered Liu Wenxiu to elect and reorganize the officials and troops of Zhejiang in Hangzhou to test these people to see who is still loyal to the court and who has two hearts.”

Zhu Mai first talked about the background of this military meeting.

After pausing, she said again: "Liu Wenxiu wrote a memorial about the situation of Zhejiang officials through a month of visits and the situation learned from some Zhejiang officials. You can take a look."

When Zhu Mai was speaking, Lian Qiao distributed a copy of Liu Wenxiu's memorial to Hong Niangzi, Zhu Dadian, Yang Tinglin and other important members of the Military Council.

As for Chengdu, Zhu Mei also brought several copies of the memorials to Li Yan, Ma Ke and others for reading.

After everyone finished reading it, Zhu Ma said to the end: "Taowen, you are following Liu Wenxiu to handle this matter, so you will talk about the various government troops in Zhejiang."

After all, I knew that Zhu Ma was using her as a guard at the guard of the guard department, but she entered Zhuque Camp for a month or two and her thoughts were different from the time she had before.

At first, she still did not trust the Ming court very much, and was vigilant, and did not want to shed blood and sacrifice for Daming as her father did.

But now she felt that the Ming Dynasty court formed by Zhu Mai was really different from the past, and was changing in a positive direction in all aspects, which was exciting.

Therefore, she also ignited her blood and wanted to build something as a woman.

She was wearing the Zhuque Camp's military uniform and stood in front of the Zhejiang Province map. Because she was nearly 1.8 meters tall, she looked heroic and heroic.

"Zhejiang's official army can be roughly divided into three categories. One is the garrison army of coastal garrisons, the second is the garrison army of mainland garrisons and local Zhejiang recruitment, and the third is the guests who have entered Zhejiang for various reasons and stayed there until now. military.

Because the coastal areas of Zhejiang are often invaded by Japanese pirates and pirates, the guards along the coast of Zhejiang are slightly more capable of fighting than the guards in other places. Among them, the Dinghai Guards, that is, the Zhoushan Islands, are the most numerous.

However, the strongest person on Zhoushan Island was not the military army, but the troops of Huang Binqing, the deputy general of the Zhoushan Navy Division.

Huang Binqing was from Putian, Fujian. Because his father died in the rebellion of She Chongming during the rebellion of the Tongzong of Chongqing, he became the 100 households of Xinghua Wei.

Later, he participated in the quelling of She Chongming Rebellion, and made contributions to resisting pirates. He was moved to Shaotai General and was appointed as the deputy general. He led nearly 10,000 navy troops to station in Zhoushan.

Last year, the pseudo-Emperor Hongguang was promoted to him as the general of Jiujiang, but Huang Binqing has been entrenched in Zhoushan and has not taken office.”

Although his words only made an objective description of Huang Binqing's experience and current situation, Zhu Dadian, Yang Tinglin, and Li Yan couldn't help but frown when they heard it, thinking: Isn't this a warlord?

Although Hongguang was a pseudo-emperor, Huang Binqing did not know about the last emperor's will at that time. For him, Hongguang was the righteous thought of the Ming Dynasty, but he did not listen to the orders and entrenched Zhoushan to be a hero. What is it that he was not a warlord?

Zhu Mai Ze learned more about Huang Binqing through Hao Guangming.

Speaking of this person, he has made a lot of contributions to the Ming Dynasty.

In the She'an Rebellion, Huang Binqing avenged his father and was just a low-ranking officer at that time, so there was nothing worth talking about.

Afterwards, he went to Xuanfu and Fujian as generals, and joined forces with Zheng Zhilong to defeat the Dutch and pirate Liu Xiang who invaded Fujian and made great contributions.

Later, he participated in the quelling of the Zhang Puwei Rebellion of the Demonic Dao in Jiangxi. Ten years later, Chongzhen went to Zhejiang to lead the navy, and either recruited or suppressed the pirates in Zhejiang, so that the coastal areas of Taizhou, Shaoxing and Ningbo in Zhejiang would be safe.

It can be said that Huang Binqing, as the son of a civil servant, was transferred to a low-level military officer, and had been fighting for the Ming Dynasty in more than 20 years. This resume was really good.

But Zhu Mai also knew that Huang Binqing was even more domineering in later history, but it is controversial whether he became a substantial warlord.

After the Hongguang court was destroyed, he was in Zhoushan, and was the righteous man in Emperor Longwu. Therefore, when the king and minister of Lu came to Zhoushan to gain a foothold, he refused to accept it, and even attacked the King of Lu's troops, which was eventually designed by Zhang Mingzhen and others. Kill it.

After Hao Guangming and Zhu Mai analyzed this person, he felt that it was not right to say that he had become a substantial warlord after the Hongguang Dynasty.

Judging from the later history, if Zhoushan and eastern Zhejiang were not influenced by the Lu court and were all under the jurisdiction of the Longwu court, the Qing Dynasty might not have been able to defeat the Longwu Dynasty so quickly.

Although Zhu Yihai, the King of Lu, was considered good among the royal family in the late Ming Dynasty, his actual ability was average and he was definitely not as good as Emperor Longwu.

Although Zhang Mingzhen and others were loyal and fierce, they were definitely not as good as Huang Binqing who had been fighting in various places for more than 20 years. Huang Binqing was designed to be killed in Zhoushan, rather than being defeated head-on by Zhang Mingzhen and others.

If Zhoushan is really handed over to Huang Binqing, it may not be so easy to be captured by the Qing army. Of course, the premise is that Huang Binqing should not surrender to the Qing Dynasty.

But Huang Binqing died before contacting the Qing army, so it is impossible to judge whether he will surrender to the Qing army.

Based on the above analysis and ideas, Zhu Mai finally decided to give Huang Binqing a chance.

So, after finishing his words, Zhu Mai said: "Zhoushan Navy, I have ordered the Second Town of the Navy to go to Zhoushan to select and reorganize the navy troops of Huang Binqing and others.

If he cooperates with the integration, he will be given the position of general of the Eighth Town of the Navy. What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, since this person is suspected of separatism, how can he let him lead his troops and entrust him with important tasks?" Yang Tinglin was the first to speak.

Although he was transferred to a military civil servant, Yang Tinglin obviously still had the traditional civil servant's idea and was extremely vigilant against such military generals who tend to become warlords.

Ma Ke didn't say anything, both Hong Niang, who was also a military general.

Zhu Dadian, who started his career by quelling the rebellion and served as the governor, looked at Zhu Mai and pondered: "This Huang Binqing is a long-time general. He has made many contributions, so it is okay to give him a chance."

Of course, if he is unwilling to cooperate with the reorganization, the court should send people to arrest and wipe out his subordinates."

On the other side, Li Yan heard a voice through the projection video, "Your Majesty, it is best to conquer such generals. If you send troops to suppress them, even if you win, it will be a loss for our Ming Dynasty. If you let him escape to the sea, then the coast of Zhejiang will definitely Being disturbed.”

Zhu Ma asked a group of important members of the Military Affairs Council to speak, just to understand their ideas and integrate them.

Since she had Li Yan and Zhu Dadian's support, she didn't say anything more and said directly: "This person's arrangement is like this."

After hearing Zhu Meiyu's instructions, he continued to preach: "The soldiers of the Dinghai Guard are now recruiting troops together, and are nominally led by Liu Shixun, the assistant general of the Dinghai Guard.

Liu Shixun was a martial arts Jinshi in Chongzhen for the tenth year and was also well-versed in poetry and history. He is said to be quite strategic, but he is not trusted by Huang Binqing."

Hearing this, Yang Tinglin actively advised: "Your Majesty, this person may be able to separate Huang Binqing's power."

Zhu Mom nodded, not commenting.

Liu Shixun was also a loyal and savage fighter against the Qing Dynasty and had a good reputation. According to Hao Guangming's analysis, this person did not have much experience in actually leading troops to fight wars. Later generations led troops to fight against the Qing Dynasty and were soon defeated. Therefore, before Liu Shixun came out of training, , probably only suitable for being a consultant.

However, this person's potential should be greater than that of Huang Binqing and more worthy of cultivation.

After finishing his sentence, he continued: "In addition to Dinghai-Zhoushan, the troops on the coast of Zhejiang are Wang Zhiren's troops, the general of Haining Guard between Jiaxing and Hangzhou, and Zhang Mingzhen's troops who are actually appointed as the general of Shipu, Taizhou.

It is reported that Wang Zhiren's army currently has more than 20,000 naval and land officers and soldiers, while Zhang Mingzhen's army has seven or 8,000 naval and land officers and soldiers."
