Chapter 297

To be honest, Emperor Chongzhen was very dissatisfied with Zhang Fengyi, the Minister of War.

When I first chose him, I also chose the tallest among the short ones, which was a product of compromise without the right candidate.

At first, the emperor believed that Zhang Fengyi was a very literary person who was proficient in military tactics. He was very knowledgeable about military tactics. Such a person should have some performance.

However, the performance Zhang Fengyi made during his tenure disappointed Emperor Chongzhen. Although some of Zhang Fengyi's characteristics made the emperor very appreciative, the emperor was also bored with this Minister of War who had been constantly submitting failed transcripts.

The emperor was already looking for a new candidate in his heart. He now urgently hoped that a Minister of War, who knew the army, would preside over the Ministry of War for him and be responsible for the mobilization of troops across the country.

The Minister of War was a civil servant and had always been a member of the Qingliu people. However, the emperor saw that this was not a solution and wanted to change this, but he could not find a suitable reason for the moment. If there was no suitable reason, he could not easily convince the ministers in the court.

This time Feng Yang's loss is the best excuse. If Feng Yang fails to recover it for a long time, he will be ready to use Zhang Fengyi to take action.

But Zhang Fengyi did such a huge thing quietly, which made Emperor Chongzhen overjoyed.

Emperor Chongzhen always believed that Zhang Fengyi was a silent person. A silent man was powerful. He would definitely burst out at critical moments and surprise everyone.

A few days ago, Emperor Chongzhen always despised Zhang Fengyi. He spoke a little unsteady and frivolously. He only knew what he said and could not actually work.

But Zhang Fengyi made this vote secretly and completely held his heart. At this time, he was very happy to hear Zhang Fengyi pointing to the map and talking, and he was very proud of his spirit of urging and giving instructions to the country.

At this time, the official war report also reached the Tongzhengsi Department of the court. When the Tongzhengsi Department saw such a major news, it immediately transferred to the cabinet. The four cabinet ministers of the cabinet immediately came to ask for the emperor and reported the great news to him.

After seeing the news, the cabinet was extremely surprised at the first moment. Secondly, they discovered one thing, that is, this surprise soldier was not deployed by the cabinet, and it seemed that the credit had nothing to do with them.

But there is no problem with this. As long as you win a battle, you will have a contribution from their cabinet.

The emperor put great pressure on them. If the Fengyang issue is not resolved for a long time, someone will have to get out of the cabinet. Wen Tiren's first position in his cabinet will probably be lost. Now someone has done this. No matter who it is, he has finally stabilized the overall situation. Even if it is not due to his problem, such a person is a minister of the court and has retained the face of the court later.

This situation made them overjoyed and immediately reported the good news to the emperor. Who knew that when they reported the good news to the emperor, the emperor just said lightly: "I understand."

The emperor actually found out in advance, which shocked the four masters. Does the emperor have any other information channels besides them?

When they saw Zhang Fengyi, they almost understood that Zhang Fengyi must have received the message in advance.

Wen Tiren and others hurriedly stepped forward to start the report, flattering the emperor, praising him for his good leadership.

Chongzhen said coldly: "What does this have to do with me? It is entirely up to Zhang Aiqing to plan and fight thousands of miles to achieve today's victory. He passed my order and ordered Zhu Dadian, Hong Chengchou and others to lead troops to Fengyang immediately and capture Fengyang within seven days, otherwise military law would be carried out."

The emperor expressed his strength, and Wen Tiren dared not pursue such a problem anymore. Could it be that he still showed in front of the emperor that it was too early to recapture Fengyang in the emperor. The emperor would have to slap him in the face or slap him in the mouth?

As for the court, Liu Bu's surprise attack this time, rushing to Anqing to defeat Zhang Xianzhong and capturing Zhang Xianzhong alive. The encouraging court's prestige is also a very good thing for the court, so they are very welcome and praise. You must know that the current court is worse than the day. They either throw cities here or there, and they have no way to use bandits.

If they did not capture Zhang Xianzhong alive this time, but let him continue to wander around, the attack on the Ming Dynasty court would be fatal. Even those who attacked Fengyang and dug out the emperor's tombs would not be able to bring him to justice. This means that the Ming Dynasty court has completely declined and completely lost control, which will only make the people of the world free from their abilities.

So Xunbu this time has inspired the authority of the court and let people all over the world know that the court still has power and can still deal with these rebellions.

Since people like them are in the court, they hope that the court can continue to maintain their power. If the court does not even have the ability to suppress bandits, where will they become officials?

So the cabinet welcomed Liu Bu's move. If he could recover Fengyang of Zhongdu, he would be even happier. Therefore, the emperor promised such a high reward, and they did not object. Wen Tiren gave a color to the other cabinet ministers, and they immediately nodded in agreement.

Although Wen Tiren did not like Liu Yuanqiao, he even suspected that his disciple Lin Ruonan died at the hands of Liu Yuanqiao, the move Liu Yuanqiao has made is very in his interests.

He is an old politician. The old man knows the most, that is, when playing politics, he must reward if he has made merits, and if he has made mistakes, he must punish if he has made mistakes. There is no doubt about this.

Since Liu Yuanqiao and his son made great contributions, no matter whether they have different political views or are not inconsistent with them, they still have to reward them. Especially when Emperor Long Year made a statement, he would never go against the emperor.

Wen Tiren could have been the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty for many years after overthrowing Zhou Yanru, so he naturally had his own methods. The people did not have a good reputation for him, saying that he was the prime minister who had caused plague, but he felt good, thinking that he was a famous minister of the dynasty, the emperor's left and right arms, leading civil and military officials, and assisting the emperor in achieving great achievements. He himself also had the ambition to resolve the affairs of the king and the world and win the reputation after death.
