Zhu Youjian formally issued an edict, appointing Sun Chuanting as the governor of Liaodong and controlling all the troops outside Shanhaiguan.

On the second day after the appointment edict was issued, Sun Chengzong submitted his resignation, wanting to resign as Minister of War and return home. The painstakingly designed business strategy in western Liaoning was denied, which made Sun Chengzong very uncomfortable and felt that he had no shame to be the Minister of War again.

Zhu Youjian summoned him to the palace to comfort him.

"It's not that I don't want to make progress. It's because western Liaoning involves too much energy in the court that I ignore the others," Zhu Youjian pointed to the location of Jibei on the map, "Master Sun, please see, this wall of Jizhou is more than a thousand miles away. There has been almost no repairs since the Wanli period, and dozens of mountain passes can be easily entered and exited. What if Jiannu detours the grassland and attacks from Jibei? Therefore, I decided to divide the money and grain in western Liaoning to operate Jibei."

Sun Chengzong looked at the map of Jibei and frowned and said, "But outside the border wall of Jizhou is the Mongolian territory, and is separated from the Liaoshen where Jiannu lives, and the journey is thousands of miles."

Zhu Youjian sighed: "Sun Shi is the Minister of War. He should know that the Mongolian Lin Dan Khan has been defeated by Jiannu and moved westward. Almost everyone in Jiannu's banner can ride a horse. What is the purpose of a journey of thousands of miles? Once Jiannu is really The choice to invade from Jibei. Have you ever thought about the consequences?”

Sun Chengzong was silent. What was the consequence was obvious. Jiannu would definitely drive straight into the city of Beijing, and the world would inevitably shake. Although he still didn't think Jiannu would do this, what if Jiannu really did. Doing so, the defense line in western Liaoning will become a joke for hundreds of miles.

"Jibei and western Liaoning are like two gateways of the Ming Dynasty. If you lose any of them, you will endanger the capital. Therefore, I cannot spend all my money and food in western Liaoning. How can I use money to repair the Jibei defense line in western Liaoning?" Zhu Youjian Talk lightly.

Sun Chengzong sighed: "Your Majesty is right, but I am wrong..."

Zhu Youjian comforted him: "I know that Master Sun, you are also dedicated to the country and have no selfishness. If Master Sun, Western Liao would have been decayed for a long time, so how could there be the current situation?"

Sun Chengzong shook his head and said ashamed: "I only saw one place in western Liaoning and did not look at the overall situation. I am really ashamed. Your Majesty, this Minister of War should be done by others. I am willing to go to Jibei to repair the border walls and make a strategy for Your Majesty. Ji Town.”

Zhu Youjian sighed: "I just feel wronged by Master Sun."

The next day, Zhu Youjian issued an order to grant Sun Chengzong the title of Prince Taibao, and rewarded him with python robe, jade belt, and silver coins. He was appointed as the Minister of War, and was in charge of Jizhou, Xuanda, and Shanhaiguan. He appointed Zhao Shujiao as the general of Shanhaiguan. The soldiers, Mangui was the general of Jizhen, and they all followed Sun Chengzong's orders.

This means dividing border affairs into two parts, within Shanhaiguan, Sun Chengzong is responsible for it, and outside Shanhaiguan is under the jurisdiction of Sun Chuanting, the governor of Liaodong.

Sun Chengzong was qualified and experienced, and was good at building castles. He was responsible for it. The Jizhen side wall defense line should be repaired soon. Even if it was not as strong as the Liaoxi defense line, it would be difficult for Jiannu to make it easy as he did in his previous life.

As long as you can defend the enemy outside the country, it doesn’t matter whether you have the strategy of using surprise troops to attack Jiannu’s nest. As long as you can organize the internal forces and accumulate strength to train elite soldiers, sooner or later It can eliminate Jiannu! And the transfer of generals such as Mangui and Zhao Rujiao will make it easier for Sun Chuanting to integrate the Liaoxi army and reduce resistance.

Now that the defense of Jibei, western Liaoning is well arranged, it is time to straighten out the internal situation. The next focus is to prevent civil unrest.

Zhu Youjian had issued an order to reduce the money and grain in Shaanxi for one year, but he just didn't know what the imperial edict would become when he arrived.

After Zhu Youjian thought about it, he issued an order to promote Shaanxi to governor Hong Chengchou to governor of Yansui, and to govern the affairs of Yan'an and Qingyang, and to take charge of Yulin Town.

The refugee riots mainly occurred in northern Shaanxi, namely the Yulin area of ​​Qingyang, Yan'an. Although Zhu Youjian felt very uncomfortable with Hong Chengchou's later surrender, things did not happen now, and Zhu Youjian still trusted Hong Chengchou's ability.

With Hong Chengchou here, even if there is chaos in the people, it will probably be able to be quickly pacified.

As for the thieves Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, they must be dealt with as soon as possible.

The times create heroes, and heroes create momentum. Although Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others can only be considered big thieves and have nothing to do with heroes, if these big thieves did not appear, the civil chaos in the Ming Dynasty in the previous life would probably have been wiped out long ago and might not have ended up in the country.

When he decided to deal with King Fu, Zhu Youjian ordered Xu Xiancun to send someone to deal with thieves like Li Zicheng, and he didn't know how it was going...

In the distant Shaanxi, by the Yellow River, Chang Wu looked at the notes in his hand and silently muttered the three words "Li Zicheng".

He is an ordinary Jinyiwei lieutenant, and he is the lowest class among Jinyiwei. He is honest and always says the wrong things. He is not happy with Shangguan. He is over thirty years old but has never been promoted.

Wei Zhongxian fell, Tian Ergeng was exiled to western Liaoning, and many colleagues were promoted, and Chang Wu was still an ordinary lieutenant. This time, many colleagues followed the new commander Xu Xiancun to Luoyang to handle cases, and Chang Wu got such a person to avoid them.

errands.

I traveled thousands of miles just to kill an unknown soldier, but there was no such thing as going to Luoyang to handle a case! I heard that the Fu Palace had countless silver and could not pile up. I could just grab a little and I would never have to worry about eating and drinking for the rest of my life.

Xu Xiancun, who is the dog god, have you said before that your son looks different from you, and he has not told any lies, why have you been targeting me all the time?

What killing Li Zicheng was told by His Majesty? Oh, what a person His Majesty is, how could he know that there is an unknown man thousands of miles away? It must be that Li Zicheng offended Xu Xiancun, the bastard, and then Xu Xiancun asked himself to revenge and kill him!

Grandma, before killing someone, I must find out clearly and see what is hidden? Maybe I can seize the handle and threaten it!

Don’t think that being honest is easy to bully. It is also scary to get angry with honest people!

Chang Wu cursed and walked northward. He had no money to hire a car, so he could only walk all the way. Because the funds granted by the Jinyiwei Yamen were too small and could not afford to afford to spend. If he was a big deal, he would not have the money to return, so he would only

The reason why he was able to beg for all the way back to Beijing made Chang Wu even more hate Xu Xiancun!

Cross the Yellow River from Yongning Prefecture to reach Suide, then follow the official road and head north. Two days later, we arrived at an inn called Yinchuan Post.

According to Xu Xiancun's account, Li Zicheng was a postman in Yinchuan Post.

Chang Wu did not show his identity as a Jinyiwei, but pretended to be an ordinary passerby and moved into the inn to look for an opportunity to find out who Li Zicheng was. However, to his surprise, there was no one in the inn called Li Zicheng at all.
