Chapter 305 has its own rules and regulations, not much to say
Emperor Chongping closed the memorial, and for a while he was a little undecided.
"That's all, it's just one camp. Let's wait until the Beijing camp is sorted out and then we can make further calculations."
Thinking like this, he picked up a memorial, which was about Yangzhou Salt Affairs, and called Dai Quan: "Go to the cabinet to call Elder Yang Ge, and Elder Han Ge will go to the side hall to discuss the matter."
Dai Quan bowed and responded.
Not long after, Yang Guochang and Han Huang, the cabinet academicians, entered the palace and bowed with their hands in hand.
Emperor Chongping said: "Where are the two imperial envoys now?"
Half a month ago, Jia Heng stated that Lin Ruhai had been secretly murdered. At that time, Emperor Chongping was busy rectifying the capital camp, so he assigned Yang and Han to the cabinet and selected capable officials as imperial envoys to investigate the matter.
Of course, it wasn't that they didn't take it seriously. They secretly sent internal guards south to secretly investigate the mastermind behind this incident.
Yang Guochang cupped his hands and said: "Back to the Holy Spirit, Liang Yuan should be in Henan at this moment."
Emperor Chongping frowned and said, "Liang Yuan?"
He remembered this man, but he had bad moral character and could be regarded as an official.
Yang Guochang explained: "Liang Shilang is proficient in property auditing. With him as the leader, he can detect the shortcomings of the salt affairs and make suggestions for the Yangzhou Salt Institute."
Emperor Chongping turned to look at Han Huang and asked, "Where is Han Qing?"
Han Huang replied: "I am afraid that there is corruption here. Yude, the censor of Youqiandu, has volunteered and is willing to go south to supervise this case. He should be in Henan now."
Emperor Chongping looked blank and pondered for a moment, thinking quickly in his mind.
One is the Qi Party, the other is the Zhejiang Party, one is the third-level official, and one is the fourth-level official. They are all responsible for the salt affairs.
Nowadays, the imperial court and the Qi and Zhejiang parties are all competing for performance over the salt affairs. Of course, as long as the official business is not delayed, he has no intention of blocking it.
"The most urgent task now is to reorganize the Beijing camp. Without a soldier who dares to fight to protect Shenjing, he can't sleep well at night." The coldness in Emperor Chongping's eyes flashed away, he suppressed other thoughts in his heart, and put the majestic
His eyes fell on Yang and Han.
"Yang Qing, it's been three months since the pay was owed to the capital camp. Now that Prince Teng has cleared the vacancy, he can allocate the arrears of pay to the Ministry of War in advance to help him organize the army."
Emperor Chongping used the factory guards as his eyes and ears, and he was actually aware of some changes in military morale. This was the strategy Emperor Chongping came up with to appease Prince Teng.
When Yang Guochang heard this, a smile appeared on his old face, and he said: "Early in the morning, I allocated money to the Ministry of War to eliminate nearly 100,000 soldiers. This alone saved the imperial court more than 3 million taels a year.
The silver pattern does not reduce the fighting power, and Wang Jiedushi is really the country's chief city."
Emperor Chongping couldn't help but feel a little excited, and said: "Once the army is reorganized, next year we will vigorously rectify the local capital offices and garrison offices to eliminate the accumulated shortcomings!"
As for the Nine Sides, why not mention it?
First of all, the Jiubianjiangmen tree has big roots and deep roots. It is responsible for guarding the border and must not be tampered with. Even the court just keeps adding sand.
Secondly, after Li Zan, the great scholar of Wuyingdian, passed through the northern territory, there was bound to be an adjustment and rectification, so there is no need to say more.
Han Huang, the Second Assistant to the Cabinet, looked at the monarchs and ministers who had mixed expressions of joy on their faces. Their fair and elegant faces had an expression of indifference, and he secretly shook his head.
He doesn't know how to organize the army, but he knows about personnel. Wang Ziteng is so radical, and there seems to be no good way to arrange military generals. These people really won't be resentful and will cooperate honestly?
There is also the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, although the Holy Sage has completely obtained the acquiescence of the Supreme Emperor of Chonghua Palace.
Today's Han Dynasty is in danger of destroying the country if it does not organize its army and strengthen its military power.
But are the nobles of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion really willing to surrender?
But the emperor is obviously in a mood at this time, and no one can guarantee that something like this will cause trouble. If the prince has a good plan and everything goes smoothly, wouldn't it be a wise act for him to warn him?
In fact, Wang Ziteng still thought of a way to resettle it, but... he had no money.
To resettle generals, it's not like everyone is given two taels of silver and that's the end of the matter. Do we need to pay the back pay? There are also resettlement expenses. In total, they are a huge amount of money, in the millions.
Wang Ziteng initially followed Jia Heng and plundered the generals' belongings to settle the soldiers, but he soon discovered that it was easier said than done, and it was just an unrealistic fantasy.
The reason is that Wang Ziteng cannot determine how many shortfalls the generals have taken over the years, let alone recover the shortfalls?
In addition, Wang Ziteng knew that the Prince of Nan'an and other nobles from the Fifth Army Governor's Office were involved, so as not to cause a backlash from the Fifth Army Commander's Office, he tacitly agreed not to pursue him.
This is just like the promise of "controlling large capital and equalizing land rights" suddenly stopped being mentioned as the situation improved.
Because they were keenly aware that they had too many enemies and too much resistance to doing things, they had better concentrate on doing one thing well. The Han landlords worked together to overthrow the Manchu monarchy and move towards republic first, and then talk about other things.
Just when the emperor and his ministers were full of ambition, an eunuch from outside entered the palace and reported: "Your Majesty, Jia Yunhui has handed over the sign and wants to see the Holy Emperor."
As soon as these words came out, not only Emperor Chongping looked surprised, but Yang and Han also looked slightly paused, and their minds kept guessing.
He secretly thought, this favorite minister of the emperor is no longer organizing an army at this time, so why is he coming to the palace at this time?
Emperor Chongping was surprised. He originally considered waiting for a while to summon Jia Heng to discuss Guo Yong's camp, but unexpectedly he took the initiative to meet him.
"Announce him to come in." Emperor Chongping said.
Not long after, a tall young man wearing the official robe of a second-grade military attache entered the study room in the palace under the guidance of the internal eunuch. He cupped his hands and said, "I am here to see you, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty."
"Ziyu is here." A smile appeared on Emperor Chongping's face.
Seeing this, Yang and Han sighed in unison.
This is the emperor's favored ministers, such as Emperor Qin's Meng Yi, Han Wu's Huo Qubing, and Emperor Tang's Wang Zhongsi. They are all extremely favored and trustworthy, which is different from ordinary people.
Jia Heng cupped his hands and said, "I have something to report to your Majesty."
When Emperor Chongping heard this, he looked surprised and asked, "What is this?"
Jia Heng said: "Just now, nearly a hundred generals who have been eliminated from the Beijing camp gathered in front of the military department."
Emperor Chongping looked calm and asked: "There is something going on in the Ministry of War Yamen? How is the situation now?"
In fact, in the past few days, he had also received letters from the internal guards reporting several disturbances in the Ministry of War Yamen and the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, but these were what he expected.
"The Five Cities Military and Horse Division led by Chen Ti has sent soldiers to control the situation and persuade the generals to return." Jia Heng said with a serious expression on his face.
On the way before entering the palace, Shen Yan sent someone to report quickly that the troublemakers in front of the Ministry of War Yamen had been dispersed and the matter had calmed down for the time being.
When Emperor Chongping heard this, his face turned cold, and he said: "Those generals who have been eliminated are mediocre and cannot help the country. Now that they are disarmed and still harbor resentment, do I still expect them to go to northern Xinjiang to fight against the Eastern Han Dynasty?"
Fight?"
When Jia Heng heard this, his expression was indifferent.
Emperor Chongping calmed down and said: "If this happens again in the future, I will severely punish the crime and will never tolerate it."
Jia Heng said: "Your Majesty, the generals and soldiers have as many as 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers, and many of them are gathered in the capital. I am afraid that if this continues, the number of people will increase, and the city of Shenjing will become increasingly unrest."
When Emperor Chongping heard this, he paused.
Instead, Yang Guochang took over the conversation and said: "Jia Yunhui, you were ordered by the Holy One to appoint troops and horses in the five cities to maintain order and stability in the capital and suppress the streets. It is your duty. Now these soldiers who have been laid off are causing trouble.
You should plan a solution, but how can you turn around and ask the Holy One for advice?"
Jia Heng stared at Yang Guochang with a pair of bright eyes and said loudly: "Mr. Yang Ge, although I have appointed the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to be in charge of the security of Shenjing City, I also supervise Guo Yong's army. Now on the 11th
In the regiment camp, the generals and soldiers were eliminated due to being selected as vanguards, and the morale of the army was turbulent. Naturally, they were worried. As for the calamity caused by the dismissed soldiers in Shenjing City, the subordinates did not dare to shirk their responsibilities. However, Mr. Yang Ge, these soldiers cannot be ignored.
They are ordinary people who originally belonged to the army. Once they cause trouble, it will be a serious matter."
He used a neutral word, making trouble, not causing chaos.
Yang Guochang said in a loud voice: "I don't know much about military affairs, but I know that all our ministers must fulfill their responsibilities and fulfill their duties to achieve peace in the world. Since Jia Yunhui is in charge of the military and horse divisions of the five cities, he only needs to work diligently and fulfill his duties."
Jia Heng frowned, this old man, is this the end?
This is clearly accusing him of having a hand in everything.
Han Huang saw the two arguing at this moment, his eyes moved slightly, and he smoothed things over and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that this matter requires the court to properly arrange the Beijing camp and reduce the number of soldiers, and to explain to the generals who have been disarmed.
, it’s about moving with emotion.”
These words are of course talking nonsense.
Emperor Chongping nodded slightly and ignored the exchange of words between Jia Heng and Yang Guochang. He said: "What Han Qing said is true. We must not stop eating because of choking. Moreover, if we follow the strategy of the Beijing camp, we will only be able to eliminate 40,000 to 50,000 old and weak people in the end."
The impact of the army will not be too great. Yang Qing, your household department should also think of ways to arrange it and try to prevent it from causing trouble in Shenjing City."
At this moment, Emperor Chongping just thought that Jia Heng had raised the troops of the Five Cities, and the appearance of these eliminated generals and soldiers had caused unrest on the ground in Shenjing, so he made this statement.
"Old minister, I will obey the holy words." Yang Guochang's expression did not change, but his heart was extremely angry.
The Ministry of Household Affairs also has no money. How much money should be prepared for these generals who have been eliminated?
They are rude and disrespectful and don't know justice. They gave money and said that their desires are hard to satisfy. Should we arrange a military department and then place them in the local capital and garrison?
After Jia Heng finished speaking, he sighed softly in his heart, looked at Emperor Chongping calmly, and said slowly: "I obey the decree."
The emperor's words were more like giving both parties a step up, and reminding him not to stop eating because of choking.
Of course, the Holy Scroll is not actually weakened, it can also be said to be protected.
Therefore, he only reminded me up to this point.
To say too much is to pour cold water on the emperor's head.
Moreover, he only had a gut feeling that something was going to happen, and there was no conclusive evidence for the time being. It was more like a leaf knowing the autumn, and he saw some signs. In the eyes of the emperor, it was probably that the wind was trembling, the grass and trees were all soldiers.
This is different from the previous Lin Ruhai incident. Now this is vaguely questioning Wang Ziteng's army strategy.
For example, at the time of financial innovation, you said at the executive meeting that P2P supervision would definitely lead to thunderstorms. Isn’t this blatantly contrary?
Jia Heng cupped his hands and said, "If there is nothing else, I will leave."
Those who need to be reminded have been reminded, and the rest he can only secretly monitor the development of the situation, wait for thunderstorms, and then protect himself so as not to blow up himself.
Emperor Chongping was about to nod when he suddenly remembered Wang Ziteng's previous memorial and asked curiously: "I heard that Ziyu has also been organizing an army recently. How are the training of the twelve recruit camps going? Are they ready for a battle?"
Jia Heng's face paused, and he cupped his hands and said: "They have just joined the army as refugees and have just become familiar with the formations. They still need to practice military formations. I estimate that we will not be able to train a strong army for the Holy Lord until at least the spring of next year."
Military training cannot be achieved overnight. Of course, after half a month of training, bows, swords and guns may not be enough, but the new army under his command has already begun to show its impressive appearance.
Not to mention anything else, with a little training, you can do the split type.
Emperor Chongping smiled, took a deep look at Jia Heng, and said in an encouraging tone: "You know what you are doing, and you have your own rules when it comes to training soldiers, so I won't say more."
When Jia Heng heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He vaguely felt that there was another meaning behind his words. "It has its own rules and I don't need to say much." Was this a slap in the face to him?
In a flash of thought, I grasped the key.
Wang Ziteng has done well in his errands during this period, and he may have gained more weight in the emperor's heart. His alienation and indifference to Wang Ziteng since returning to the capital must have fallen into the emperor's eyes. Perhaps he thought he was young and energetic.
Do you want to compete with Wang Ziteng?
After all, the delicate relationship between Jia and Wang's family might not be hidden from the emperor's cold eyes.
When Jia Heng thought about this, he did not defend himself. He looked blank, cupped his hands and said, "I thank you, Your Majesty."
In this case, talk too much and make mistakes, just keep your head down and do things.
Emperor Chongping nodded and said with a smile: "I still have something to discuss with the two pavilion elders, so you can go back first."
Jia Heng cupped his hands and said, "That humble minister is retiring."
With that said, under the guidance of the inner prisoner, he slowly left the solemn Daming Palace.
While walking on the road between the palaces and gardens, I looked back at the Daming Palace.
Even if he knew that the emperor's character was such that he would not obey his advice, he still...
"Let's see."
Jia Heng's expression returned to calm. It was already noon, and he planned to go to the Wucheng Army and Horse Department first to inquire about the situation of the generals who were causing trouble in the Ministry of War.
Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division
The official hall was crowded with people.
Xie Zaiyi, the commander of the east city, Shen Yan, the west city commander, Dong Qian, the deputy commander of the middle city, and Fan Yi, the chief clerk, are all there.
Jia Heng asked: "Shen Yan, what happened to the group of people surrounding the Ministry of War? Did they come spontaneously, or was there someone behind the scenes?"
Shen Yan explained: "They are from Yaowu Camp, led by a guerrilla, accompanied by two thousand households. It is said that Li Xun, the governor of Yaowu Camp, not only used the method of selecting fronts to eliminate soldiers, but also threatened to inspect the vacancies over the years.
Threatened some corrupt guerrilla generals, thousands of households, hundreds of households, to spit out their empty salary, otherwise they would not only be kicked out of the military camp, but also have to engage in military law. However, these people collected the money, but Li Xun still kicked them out of the military camp. These people
They went to the Ministry of War to complain."
Jia Heng frowned and said, "Why does Li Xun act like this?"
Taking advantage of the opportunity to rectify the capital camp, although it is for a legitimate purpose to recover the deficit, it will not be established without faith. This move is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire of the generals who are already full of resentment.
Shen Yan said: "But because they were taking advantage of the situation, the Ministry of War didn't care at all, and even wanted to accuse them. However, the Beijing camp had already said that this matter involved generals and schools, so let's forget about it, so the Ministry of War gave up. These guerrilla generals still have thousands of households and hundreds of families.
Over the years, I have suffered a lot of vacancies, and now I have been deceived into losing money from selling my property, and I have been kicked out of the military camp. While drinking, I vowed to give Li Xun a good look!"
After listening to Fang Ji's suggestions, Wang Ziteng came up with some suggestions to reduce resistance. For example, after eliminating the school from the Beijing camp, forgetting the past and letting it go. This in itself was a means to eliminate the trouble, in conjunction with Pang Shili's cavalry and Ni Biao's central guards.
Military deterrence really feels like soft words but a big stick in hand.
But how can the generals of the Jingying camp be easy to deal with? The Eight Immortals crossed the sea, each showed his magical powers, and bribed some of Wang Ziteng and his confidants, but the bribery was not always effective, because the Jingying camp always had to be reorganized, and whoever left and who would not leave?
But if Li Xun used deceptive methods to confiscate the property of generals, it would be a bit hateful.
Jia Heng's eyes were deep and he asked: "Are there many similar things in Yaowu Camp?"
"How come it's not much? I heard that a general gave his daughter to Li Xun as a concubine, and gave him five thousand taels of silver to keep her safe." Shen Yan lowered his voice subconsciously, and then said: "I heard that
The three forward selectors made a lot of money..."
Wang Ziteng appointed a three-person disarmament team including Li Xun, Yue Qing, and Yao Guang.
Jia Heng's face gradually became silent and his eyes flashed coldly.
I'm afraid something is going to happen to Yaowu Camp.
