Chapter 1264

Chapter 1264 Generals are at odds with each other

[The assistant ministers repeatedly plead guilty, becoming more and more sincere, especially abiding by the law and having fun. Nowadays, rebels are rampant, and the prime minister has been dismissed. With the assistant ministers' talents and knowledge, they can do this with ease, and they can star in the past, and quickly create a demonic atmosphere.

Save the people from water and fire. On the day of triumph, you will be rewarded with a great reward. Still give Shang Fangjian to supervise the division, and the soldiers and horses of each province will supervise themselves, and all the people below the town will listen to the control.

And do it.]

Yang Sichang thought Chongzhen too well.

He thought that Chongzhen reinstated his official position because he was thinking of his hard work.

As everyone knows, Chongzhen is just planning to give him a big blame.

After seeing this instruction from Chongzhen, Yang Sichang's eyes darkened.

He vaguely felt that his end seemed to have come.

Because he serves as an assistant minister, he knows the situation in the court better than anyone else.

The invasion of the Qing army has exhausted the remaining vitality of the Ming Dynasty. Today, the Ming Dynasty court is as empty as the snow in March, which is not far away from melting.

At this time, the rebel army was revived and it was no longer possible to quell the chaos.

Whoever is responsible for quelling the chaos is seeking death.

Yang Sichang knew this, and Chongzhen naturally knew it too.

Whenever something big happens, Chongzhen will do something consciously or unconsciously.

That is to find a scapegoat.

Yuan Chonghuan was the first generation, and Yang Sichang is now the second generation.

Three days ago, Chongzhen retaliated with the imperial edict and asked Yang Sichang to return to the palace to serve as an assistant, but then asked him to leave the capital to supervise the division.

Yang Sichang had no way to retreat, so he was appointed as the Minister of Rites and the Ministry of War, a bachelor of Dongge, and was responsible for supervising the invasion.

"The matter of suppressing thieves has been made clear before. However, there are still some important matters. I specially summoned Ai Qing to inform you."

Chongzhen looked at Yang Sichang at the foot of the steps, and the unbearable feeling in his heart quickly dissipated.

Although Yang Sichang made it easy for him to use it, the situation was like this and someone had to be responsible.

He is the emperor, of course.

Then we had to sacrifice Yang Sichang.

"Zhang Thief once disturbed the ancestral mausoleum, and his crime cannot be forgiven. As for the other bandits, just suppress them and appease them."

Not only did Chongzhen want to trick Yang Sichang, he also set certain conditions for him.

Chongzhen also knew that this time the rebel army would rise again, it would be extremely difficult to control. Since it could not be completely wiped out, he would choose a bright one to deal with it.

Li Zicheng is now missing, and Liang Yue is at home outside the country, so it can only be Zhang Xianzhong who jumped out first.

As for the words "Zhang Xianzhong once disturbed the ancestral mausoleum, so he should not be let go", Yang Sichang did not believe a word of it.

If Zhang Xianzhong really couldn't be let go, why bother to recruit him in the first place?

Being a minister to Chongzhen is so frustrating. I understand everything and can't change anything.

Even though he knew that there was a fire pit in front of him, he could only jump in with his eyes closed.

"Wei Chen understands."

Frustrated, Yang Sichang didn't have much thought to treat the emperor respectfully.

Chongzhen also knew that his approach was a bit cold-blooded, and he could not help but feel hot-skinned, so he quickly made remedial measures.

"I see it in my eyes that I love you, be loyal to you, serve your country, and devote yourself to your country. Before leaving, I have nothing to express, so I wrote a poem to express the friendship between you and me as king and minister."

Chongzhen asked Wang Chengen to bring up a piece of calligraphy and unfold it in front of Yang Sichang.

There is a poem on it, written by Chongzhen himself.

[Yanmei is now a temporary city, and the general is commanding the Xiliu camp. The atmosphere of the bandits has been wiped out, and peace has been restored, and the period has been restored to provide education and improve people's livelihood.]

Yang Sichang was stunned after reading it and burst into tears on the spot.

Others only thought that he was in tears of gratitude, but he was the only one who understood that he was really hopeless.

Nowadays, it is difficult to quell chaos, but we still have to take into account people's livelihood?

If you really care about people's livelihood, can you, the emperor, not act recklessly?

Yang Sichang left the capital in despair and went all the way south to Xiangyang.

Xiong Wencan, who was dismissed, eunuch Liu Wenbin, governor Fang Kongzhen, Zuo Liangyu, Chen Hongfan and others had been waiting for a long time.

When everyone meets, they all have different thoughts. But one thing is the same, that is, they are all decadent.

Xiong Wencan was determined to atone for his sins and asked expectantly: "The supervisor has come from afar to uphold the holy will. Please tell me where to start the strategy to quell the chaos."

Yang Sichang had a lawsuit on his mind. After sorting out the current enemy situation, he stared at the burning eyes of everyone and started to make arrangements.

"Now that the bandits are powerful, we must concentrate our forces to change the situation of inconsistent advance and stop in the past. General Zuo, I have requested the Holy Order to grant you the seal of general to defeat the thieves. From now on, we will drive troops to suppress the bandits, all of them will be suppressed."

It’s all under your control.”

Everyone was shocked and had no idea that Yang Sichang would trust Zuo Liangyu so much.

It stands to reason that Zuo Liangyu had lost all his seals, so even if he didn't lose his head, he would still have to be punished with a serious crime. As a result, not only was he not punished, he was awarded the seal of "Plain Thief General" and took over the military power.

This is rising instead of falling, which is really puzzling.

Zuo Liangyu was stunned by surprise.

He fully thought that after Yang Sichang arrived, he would be held responsible for his defeat. He had already secretly prepared a large amount of gold and silver, and was planning to find a suitable opportunity to buy Yang Sichang in order to avenge himself.

As a result, before the gold and silver were taken out, everything was fine and he was promoted to a higher rank.

The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty is really amazing.

Zuo Liangyu accepted the seal respectfully and immediately regarded Yang Sichang as his reborn parent.

No matter what Yang Sichang said, he planned to do his best and live up to the high expectations of his supervisor.

But Zuo Liangyu was happy too early.

He simply didn't know why Yang Sichang had been trusted by Chongzhen for many years in the Chongzhen Dynasty, where changing appearances was like changing lamps.

Just because...

Yang Sichang's temperament was exactly the same as Chongzhen's.

He appointed Zuo Liangyu as his general, not because he wanted to make peace between the generals, but because he wanted to find a scapegoat.

The most similar thing between Yang Sichang and Chongzhen is that they take the blame when looking for someone to take the blame, but they also like to point fingers.

"I have observed the strength of thieves over the years, and it is either Yu or Qin, or Qin or Yu. Now that our heavenly army is overwhelming Mount Tai, the bandits will definitely not be able to gain a foothold, and will abandon Yu and go to Qin. General Zuo, you should lead the army to station in Xing'an (now Ankang)

, all we need to do is send three thousand partial troops to Sichuan."

Zuo Liangyu's scalp felt numb and he immediately said: "I will obey the order."

When Zuo Liangyu left the commander's tent and took charge of the military affairs himself, Zuo Liangyu's face immediately changed.

After he led his army out that day, he did not go to Shaanxi at all, but entered Sichuan directly from Yudu River.

Yang Sichang was originally very proud, thinking that having subdued a tiger general, he could take the blame for himself. No matter how successful he was in suppressing the thieves, his own guilt would be greatly reduced.

The staff rushed in in horror.

"Prime Minister, Uncle Ning Nan... Uncle Ning Nan left Shaanxi, he... he went to Sichuan."

Wow...

Yang Sichang immediately dropped the tea cup in his hand, and his eyesight turned black.

"Bastard, how dare he... how dare he deceive me?"

A feeling of depression lingered in his heart, and Yang Sichang could not wait for a moment.

"If anyone comes, immediately send a message to Uncle Ning Nan, asking him to rush to Shaanxi. If there is any further delay, military law will be engaged."
