Traitors of the Manchu dynasty, why do you make me an emperor through the ages Chapter 301 Chaos in North Korea and China, Good News Arrives in Beijing
Chapter 301 Chaos in North Korea and China, Good News Arrives in Beijing
Not only Zhao Kuangyi, but also the surrounding Zuo Weiwei generals looked at this military report with different expressions, ranging from hidden anger to confusion.
At first glance, this military report is indeed completely correct, but after reading it through, everyone felt uncomfortable.
If you want them to find fault, they really can't find fault...
Qin Hui looked at Zhao Kuangyi and said calmly:
Zhao Kuangyi deliberately ignored him and wrote a memorial himself, but after hesitating for a moment, he gave up the idea.
If he wants to write it himself, the report he submits must be different from Qin Hui's.
Because if the superiors and subordinates have different opinions, then according to the ministers of the DPRK, it is probably because the superiors embezzled or concealed the military exploits of the subordinates, and the subordinates have to avenge themselves.
But if the report written by Zhao Kuangyi himself is the same as what Qin Hui described... then in the eyes of the people above, it would be just looking for trouble.
They obviously didn't treat you badly, but you still haven't signed a letter with the superior, so you have to write one yourself and submit it to me. It's obvious that you're full and stuffed.
And for this kind of prick, no matter what, I will not have a good impression...
Zhao Kuangyi hesitated for a moment and then looked at Wu Sangui on the other side.
Zhao Kuangyi's eyes were slightly threatening.
Now that Wu Sangui and the others have lost so many border crossings in Northeast China, they have made a big mistake and their future is uncertain.
And his brother Zhao Kuangyin has quite a voice in the court. If he could speak for Wu Sangui and the others... then his situation would suddenly be much better.
But if the situation is reversed, if Zhao Kuangyin has a bad impression of these border soldiers and creates a stumbling block for them, then these people will definitely have no future.
Now Zhao Kuangyi was using his brother's name to bet that Wu Sangui would not dare to offend them.
But the result was completely opposite to what he expected.
When Wu Sangui looked at the military report, his eyes almost gleamed. He picked up the pen on the table and wrote his name at the bottom of the military report.
Zhao Kuangyi was choked. If he joined forces with Wu Sangui to oppose, it would be possible to force Qin Hui to write another military report that was beneficial to their Zuoweiwei.
But Wu Sangui didn't buy his fault at all.
Not only Wu Sangui, but also the frontier generals behind him had the same attitude.
Although no one said anything, the expressions on their faces showed their support for their commander-in-chief.
Zhao Kuangyi was not his brother. Besides, even if he really offended Zhao Kuangyin, it would not be as harmful as offending Qin Hui.
By cooperating with the Right Prime Minister to submit this military report, not only can they win such a military honor and improve the court's impression of them, but they can also cultivate some tacit understanding with Qin Hui, their temporary boss.
The county magistrate is not as good as the current one. Now everyone's future is almost closely related to Qin Hui. How dare they relax?
If you still stupidly help Zhao Kuangyi at this time, without even asking for military merit, if Qin Hui thinks you are ignorant of good and evil, it will be over.
Wu Sangui encountered a soft nail, but Zhao Kuangyi couldn't do anything to them for a while, but he was not willing to just swallow this hidden loss.
Zhao Kuangyi did not receive the military report from Wu Sangui, but frowned and looked at Qin Hui, and asked in a deep voice:
He listed many items in succession, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone:
Qin Hui seemed very surprised when he heard this. He pointed at the written military report and said doubtfully:
Zhao Kuangyi looked at his innocent expression and wanted to jump up and strangle him to death.
But he definitely couldn't do this at this moment, so he had to argue with reason:
A smile suddenly appeared on Qin Hui's face, he shook his head and interrupted:
Qin Hui's words left Zhao Kuangyi and all the Zuoweiwei generals speechless.
The military newspaper is going to write about things that the court doesn't know about. Now if you retell the things that were ordered and report them back, isn't that because you are full?
Seeing them like this, Qin Hui continued to smile and said:
I am actually a chief officer, and I didn’t even write my name on it. You people have the nerve to come here and complain.
Zhao Kuangyi and the others naturally understood the meaning of Qin Hui's words. Qin Hui's personal soldiers did participate in the preparations for the battle, otherwise he would not be able to let Qin Hui take responsibility for the broken bridge, so he really could not refute this.
He couldn't say anything, and the Zuoweiwei generals below were even more speechless. Some honest people even blushed.
Qin Hui shook his head and stood up:
On the other hand, if I mistreat you, it's His Majesty's business. Anyway, I reported it to you and it has nothing to do with me.
Zhao Kuangyi gritted his teeth secretly, feeling that Qin Hui was slippery and slimy, but now he seemed to have no other choice but to sign his name.
Now that he had reached this point, Zhao Kuangyi stopped struggling and picked up his pen and wrote his name in the military newspaper.
Qin Hui glanced at him, with a smile on his face:
When it comes to reporting a victory, no one wants to delay. After the battle ended in the afternoon, the battlefield was not even cleaned, and the documents reporting the victory had already been sent to the capital.
Of course, sent along with this document was a letter written by Zhao Kuangyi to Zhao Kuangyin...
In the capital, since the edict appointing Wang Anshi was issued, the attention of ministers has gradually shifted to the war in Jizhou.
You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.
Unknowingly, the Jin people had crossed the entire Jizhou, and this time they arrived at the southernmost tip of Jizhou with the imperial troops!
Doesn't this mean that an entire state of the imperial court has fallen into their hands?
This is what the bosses thought at first, but after calming down and thinking about it carefully, they will find that the situation is obviously not so exaggerated. How could the Jin Kingdom swallow Daqian's Jizhou in one bite?
Not to mention anything else, the numerous counties and counties in Jizhou and the countless common people would not be able to let them do it.
But the ministers could not rejoice because of this. In fact, almost everyone was frightened into a cold sweat.
In less than a month, the Jin's troops crossed a state in Daqian, bringing Jizhou to the point of almost falling.
The imperial court only controls a few states in total. If they continue with this attitude, if they are given some time, won't those Jin people want to come to the capital?
The pampered elders were scolding the frontier troops for their vulnerability and corrupt generals, while at the same time they were nervously paying attention to everything about Jizhou.
At this time, the edicts issued by His Majesty the Emperor were naturally revealed again.
At that time, when Li Qian issued this edict, most of the civil servants were busy fighting for the position of minister, and no one cared about side affairs at that time.
Now they are
When he was in a hurry, someone else jumped out and told His Majesty that His Majesty the Emperor had made a hasty and haphazard decision without consulting his ministers at all.
Moreover, this statement is still very popular in the DPRK and has been recognized by many ministers.
In the eyes of many people, it is not possible to act effectively without talking about anything, not to mention that His Majesty the Emperor is still a young boy who has not left the palace. He may not even have read a few military books, let alone go to the battlefield.
This kind of person dares to remotely control the imperial troops and horses. Isn't this nonsense?
What if something goes wrong and the army is defeated? Who will bear the responsibility?
After scolding Li Qian, some officials and ministers seemed to feel that it was not enough, and turned their attention to the Ministry of War, saying that these people were not worthy of being ministers at all, and they would only flatter themselves and cooperate with the emperor's mischief without any limit.
There were also military commanders in the DPRK and China who were also criticized by them.
What kind of battle is ineffective, what kind of soldiers are exhausted, what kind of nothing...
No matter who reads or hears such memorials and rumors, they will be furious, and Li Qian is no exception.
It's not like I haven't asked you before. Everyone was so busy at that time that they didn't even have the time to take a look. Now it's better, I'm starting to think twice.
However, after the initial anger, Li Qian calmed down and discovered the true meaning behind the incident.
The people who jump out and scream at this time are almost all troublemakers, the kind of pig teammates who can't win against the headwind. Once they fall into the disadvantage, they start to look for someone to blame.
Now Li Qian, the Ministry of War, and the generals have become the targets of their blame.
After thinking about this, Li Qian no longer bothered to waste energy with these people, because if there were no hard facts in front of these people, it would be impossible to convince them no matter what.
Unless Li Qian gives them little shoes and clears these people out of the court...
But wouldn't this make people think that Li Qian has a guilty conscience?
Although Li Qian does have a guilty conscience and is not very optimistic about the outcome of this internal war, how can this idea be seen by others?
Instead, he had to remain confident and let the ministers below think that this war between the Yellow River and the Yellow River was almost certain to win, so as to stabilize the situation.
As for these people who like to jump up and down...
If the Nei Huangzhi is defeated in the end, then keep them in the court, for no other reason than to humiliate them with facts a few more times.
If the war between the inner and yellow is defeated in the end, and it is related to Li Qian's decision...then Li Qian will find a reason no matter what, and clear out a few of these people.
Otherwise, if these people succeed once, wouldn't they be even more aggressive and jump up even harder to ridicule him as the emperor?
Staying in the court and watching will only make Li Qian more upset. Naturally, he will kill the chicken to scare the monkey...
Li Qian did not investigate in depth this time, but he ignored the hidden truth behind the matter.
This kind of news spread so fast, and so many people suddenly believed that it was not spreading naturally, but that someone was behind it, adding fuel to the fire.
One is, of course, the Cai Party, which is now dead but not dead. Deng Xunwu and Gao Xun were unable to complete the tasks ordered by Cai Jing and could not interfere with the situation in Jizhou, so they spread this kind of news to deal with the problem.
As for the second one...the composition of this group of people is much more complicated, and it can be said that they include almost everyone.
Some of them have people in their own families who are presiding over the situation in Jizhou, such as some officials from Zhongshu Province and some military generals from the DPRK...
If the battle of Neihuang was defeated by the Jin people and Jizhou was defeated, their people would definitely take the blame.
But now that there is an edict from His Majesty the Emperor, there is naturally one more person who can be responsible for the defeat. Naturally, everyone needs to publicize it well.
Others are a little wary of His Majesty the Emperor's performance in the past year since he ascended the throne, or simply don't wish him well.
These people are too complicated.
The dark side of a person's heart may be difficult even for him to imagine. Basically everyone may have such thoughts, but some people suppress them while others express them...
Ministry of War.
Since the Dingyongguan military report was sent back to the imperial court, the Ministry of War has been in constant rotation, and it has been going on for two months now.
But for everyone at the Ministry of War, today is still a special day.
Li Jing, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who had been bedridden for two months, finally returned to the Yamen of the Ministry of War.
Today's Li Jing is emaciated and has a haggard face. He is almost completely different from the handsome and prosperous Li Jing two months ago. Anyone who sees his appearance would not associate the two with each other.
Just now Li Jing came to the entrance of the military department, and almost no one recognized him.
If it weren't for the second-grade scarlet robe he was wearing, he might even have been kicked out as a beggar.
When the two ministers of the Ministry of War heard the news of Li Jing's arrival, they hurriedly ran out of the Yamen.
With tears in their eyes, the two stepped forward to support Li Jing.
Li Jing's voice was unusually hoarse as he walked into the Ministry of War with the two of them.
Walking on the road, he sighed:
Pei Ji and Lu Yin looked at each other, not knowing how to comfort him.
It wasn't until the three of them walked into the Shangshu's duty room that Pei Ji said:
Li Jing shook his head and sighed. Just as he was about to say something else, there was a commotion outside the door.
