Chapter 332 Landing operations
The scorching sun burns the earth, and straw shoes step on the stone slabs, and they will catch fire in a short while. When workers see water, they will pour it into their stomachs like animals. They will stumble into their stomachs, and they will hear the sound of water in their stomachs, but their mouths will be thirsty.
The young boss shouted loudly at Liba: "You little guys, all work hard for me. You can still have wages and eat. When the Tartars come here, I don't know if they have this life!"
"Hey, maybe we're exhausted before the Tartars came."
"Dare to be swearing!" The young boss raised the fan in his hand and was about to whip Liba.
Suddenly, a group of beggars came from afar. While running, they shouted loudly: "Go and have a look. The big traitor Hong Chengchou has been arrested. It would be too late to not look at him!"
"Hong, Hong Chengchou? Being arrested!"
Everyone was shocked, and the young businessman grabbed the beggar child.
"Tell me who caught me?"
The beggar rolled her eyes and stretched out her dark little hands.
"I haven't eaten yet, I don't have a good memory, I forgot!"
"Little devil, this is for you!"
Two bronze coins were obtained, and the beggar was energetic and said with a smile: "Can there be a second Hong Chengchou in this world? It was Hong Chengchou, a traitor who was captured in Songshan and surrendered to the Tartars, willing to be a shameless lackey. Duke Ji took action and captured the old thief. He beat him so miserably. His mouth was beaten away and his body was covered with flies. If he didn't hurry up, he might be chopped off his head in a few days!"
"Ah! Where is it?"
"Is this still necessary? Isn't it enough to follow the crowd!"
When the young businessman heard this, he ran away.
"Boss, don't just go by yourself, we're here too!"
These libas looked at each other and immediately ran away, stealing chickens and letting the dog chase them away. They ran away and were covered in sweat. Finally, they squeezed to the side of the road, with dense crowds everywhere watching the fun. Everyone jumped and looked inside.
I saw a carriage slowly coming. No one in the carriage could lie down and could only support it with a wooden frame. All the limbs were wrapped in gauze. Blood was soaked out, and there was no good piece of meat on the front, chest and back. Flies were flying back and forth around me. If it weren't for the soldiers watching, I would have probably taken the person away.
Looking at my face, it was even more swollen like a pig's head, all of my teeth were gone, blood foam was flowing from the corners of my mouth, and a fishy smell was pungent!
The young businessman glanced at it and couldn't help vomiting.
While spreading the sourness, he slapped hard.
"Okay. It's a good catch, a traitor, this is the end!"
"Yes, it's best to crush Hong Chengchou's bones and ashes, burn them into toilet bricks, and then place them next to Wu Sangui." Liba also smiled and said, "Boss, why don't you be good at it? Each of us will pay one tael of silver. Then go and enjoy it. What do you think?"
"Dream!" The young businessman glared at him: "One person, one liang, how much money is that! At most, let you cut ten kilograms of meat tonight, and the braised tube is enough!"
"Hahaha, my boss, I've been so generous!"
Liba and the others laughed and laughed, and the whole of Nanjing also swept away the haze.
Every time Duke Ji sent someone to come, he would send a big gift, which was the best reassurance!
With Duke Ji here, why are you afraid of Tartars?
The firecrackers, the dragon and lion dance, Nanjing was immersed in the joy.
Compared to the people's elation, there is a different scene in the officialdom. They do hope that Gu Zhenhua will take action, but they don't want Gu Zhenhua to take action in this way.
Faced with the idea of the three major legions, no matter how stupid the person is, he understands that as long as he agrees, Gu Zhenhua will swallow the entire four towns in Jiangbei, plus the previous Zuo Liangyu tribe. Gu Zhenhua alone takes over the military power of the Ming Dynasty and kills it. It is just a matter of a moment. If this person is happy, it is not impossible to change the dynasty!
To be honest, these high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty were not unwilling to accept the change of dynasties, but Gu Zhenhua's policies were too poking their lungs. They were completely digging the ancestral graves of gentry and bureaucrats and digging out their privileges.
In comparison, the Qing Dynasty treated bureaucratic landlords with stronger attitudes towards Gu Zhenhua than that of Gu Zhenhua. This is the so-called barbarians with kings, which is worse than the demise of Xia!
Because of this, Ruan Dacheng, the leader of all officials, firmly opposed handing over all military power to Gu Zhenhua.
In front of the little emperor, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, my Ming Dynasty uses civil and military control, how can we change it easily? What's more, although Duke Ji is a good general of our dynasty, he will inevitably attract slander and slander. By that time, neither the court nor Duke Ji will be a good thing. Please put the country first and must not act like this!"
Although the little emperor Zhu Cixuan believed in Gu Zhenhua, he also knew that what Ruan Dacheng said was not unreasonable. He immediately lowered his head and didn't know what to do.
At this time, Su Quanhe stood up tremblingly. The old man arrived in Nanjing at the beginning of the year and was not adapted to the local conditions and crawled for about a month, but fortunately he survived.
As the saying goes, he is very cunning. If anyone underestimates the flesh of this coffin, he will be at a loss. When he saw that he was about to speak, Ruan Dacheng laughed first and said, "Mr. Su, the war is tense now. Are you in a hurry to follow the power?"
"There is also such a saying, Lord Ruan, what do you think!"
Ruan Dacheng sneered: "Mr. Su, I just got the news. I heard that Gu Zhenhua sent soldiers to dig the Fuling and Zhaoling of the Qing Dynasty! What a matter of this, he dared to make good decisions. Don't he know that there are more than a dozen imperial tombs in the capital? If the Tartars used this as an excuse to dig them all, where will His Majesty be and be filial? Such a king and fatherless person, who is brave and acted like a fool, even if he has great military achievements, he cannot entrust a big deal, otherwise my Ming Dynasty will be insured!"
Ruan Dacheng said as he lifted his robe and knelt in front of the little emperor, crying bitterly: "Your Majesty, I can't believe what Gu Zhenhua did. Is this still the Duke of our dynasty? It's clearly a bandit who ignores it!"
Zhu Cilang frowned and waved his hand and said, "Yuan Fu, this is a bit too much. Duke Ji is loyal to the emperor and serve the country. Who doesn't know! Besides, the imperial tomb was dug by the righteous people, so what does it have to do with Duke Ji? Do the Tartars dare to dig my Ming Dynasty's imperial tomb?"
"Your Majesty, the imperial tombs of our ancestors are related to the dragon veins of our dynasty. If they are damaged, who can bear this crime? Your Majesty, don't indulge Gu Zhenhua anymore. Such people hold great power, that is a disaster for the Ming Dynasty!"
"Hahaha, Lord Ruan, you're right!" Su Quanhe suddenly bowed to him: "The chief minister thinks about the country and has the country in mind. I really admire him. But you regard Duke Ji as a great traitor, that's a bit too much. I also know that Duke Ji started from a small matter, trained troops and fought, and was the best in the world. He might not have considered the rest of the matter. Please give me more suggestions, but you can't destroy the Great Wall by yourself!"
Ruan Dacheng was surprised when he saw Su Quanhe taking the initiative to admit his mistake. Could it be that Gu Zhenhua would admit defeat?
"Mr. Su, everyone knows the contributions of Duke Ji, but it is probably inappropriate to let him take charge of all the troops!"
Su Quanhe smiled and said, "The Chief Supervisor's words are reasonable. I also mean this."
The little emperor Zhu Ciyang suddenly became anxious and asked hurriedly: "Mr. Su, now the Tartars are struggling to attack the city. If the Ming army cannot clench into one fist, wouldn't it be a risk of defeating each one?"
"Your Majesty is wise, so the old minister has a suggestion. The chief minister said just now that he should use culture to control martial arts, and the old minister deeply agrees with it."
Ruan Dacheng heard Su Quanhe's words and suddenly felt something was wrong. The old man looked at him meaningfully, and then smiled and said, "Your Majesty, when Lord Sun Chengzong was in charge of Ji Liao, Shi Kefa also supervised Jiangbei, Duke Ji was a master of great achievements and high titles, and it was not an ordinary person who could rule the commander. The chief assistant Ruan Dacheng was in charge of the Ministry of War and was familiar with the war. He was the best candidate for the supervisor. The old minister thought..."
Speaking of this, Su Quanhe also raised his voice and said with great energy: "Duke Ji can be the governor of the Central Plains, commanding the army of Jiangbei. Ruan Dacheng is in charge of Jiangbei. He controls all kinds of people and military commands. This kind of civil and military control is also agreed by Lord Ruan. Ji Duke uses troops like a god, Lord Ruan is familiar with the court strategy, and with his supervision, he will ensure that there will be no mistakes. The expulsion of the Tartars is just around the corner, and Your Majesty can rest assured! "
What does it mean to be a picture of the dagger? This is the cruelty of the old fox Su Quanhe!
Don’t you, Ruan Dacheng, want to check and balance? Then let’s go with the flow and drive you to Jiangbei to see what you can do!
Ruan Dacheng also felt something was wrong. This was clearly a trap. He had no soldiers, no generals and no money. Why did he fight with Gu Zhenhua? If Gu Zhenhua's eyes were low, he might not even know how he died.
"Your Majesty, I..."
Before Ruan Dacheng could speak, Zhu Cilang slid his hands and smiled: "Mr. Su is really a matter of planning for the country. Ruan Shoujiao, the country is in danger. You can take this burden! I will join Lord Ruan's young master, the prince and grand tutor, and I hope that Ruan Qing's family will not let my expectations down!"
The little emperor made the final decision. Ruan Dacheng was speechless now, and the raw rice was cooked into cooked rice!
Not only did Gu Zhenhua obtain military power, but he also solved the stumbling block of Ruan Dacheng. From the inside out, Gu Zhenhua's power expanded a lot!
The storm in Nanjing immediately reached Yangzhou. Gu Zhenhua received the news that Dai Ying sent it, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Jiang is old and has done a good job. Tell them that it's time to work!"
Fang Jianming excitedly passed on the message. Soon after, Yan Yingyuan, Ma Jinzhong, Shen Tingyang, Liu Zhaoji and others were all here.
Yan Yingyuan smiled and said, "Duke, I want to congratulate you on your advancement! From now on, I will finally be able to follow the Duke. I feel so comfortable!"
"It's not easy to follow my master. There is a big battle right now. We have to find a way to eat Boluo and others, and then break the siege of Xuzhou and drive the Tartars back north of the Yellow River!"
Everyone nodded excitedly. In the past, they had been pressed and beaten by Tartars, and they were filled with resentment in their stomachs. Now they can finally vent their anger and they are clenched in their fists.
Gu Zhenhua said and looked at Shen Tingyang and smiled: "The navy has been in an army for so long and has not officially fought a big battle. This victory or defeat will fall on you!"
