Chapter 165 Shenji Camp goes to Shaanxi
Although Emperor Chongzhen knew in his heart that under his intervention in his plan, he issued an edict in the name of the Military Affairs Office, and sent Zhou Yuji to lead his troops to Shaanxi, promoted Hong Chengchou to the governor of Shaanxi, and promoted Chen Qiyu to the governor of Yansui, etc., which would change the situation of rebellion in Shanxi and Shaanxi, but he did not expect that the change would be so great.
Xi'an Prefecture and Hanzhong Prefecture cannot be called a breakthrough in the bandits.
Once they break through the defense line and break out of the barren land of Shaanxi, whether they go to Henan or jump to Sichuan.
The consequences that brought to the Ming Dynasty will surely be endless.
Because of these rebellions, the Ming Dynasty overdrawed too much of the people's power, and the levy of Liao, suppression and training of the money made the local people miserable.
Once these bandit forces start to roam in advance and play mobile wars with the Ming Dynasty, the longer the stalemate, the weaker the Ming Dynasty will be.
"Your Majesty, the most urgent task at present is to condemn the army as soon as possible and rush to help Shaanxi urgently." Zhou Yanru walked forward and bowed and said.
"Just as far as Wang Jiayin and Gao Yingxiang and other rebellious thieves are concerned, their strength should not be underestimated. If they are asked to break through the layers of siege and break out of Shaanxi, then the Ming Dynasty..."
Emperor Chongzhen did not listen to what Zhou Yanru said at all.
At this time, Emperor Chongzhen was thinking in his mind about the current troops stationed in Shaanxi and the overall situation of suppressing the rebellion.
With Hong Chengchou, Zhou Yuji and the others, even if Wang Jiayin and Gao Yingxiang perform like this, no matter how eye-catching the stalkers, the stalemate for several months is still more than enough.
Emperor Chongzhen never believed Yang He, the appeaser, from beginning to end, but this person is well-known in the court and the opposition. If he had been rashly dismissed at that time, it would not be beneficial to the entire rebellion.
But the situation is different now. The war that has been suppressing the rebellion has not made any progress, and on the contrary, the situation is becoming increasingly corrupt.
If Emperor Chongzhen did not replace Yang He at this time, it would be called a donkey.
‘Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang were spent on the capital and driven out of the three camps. Mao Chenglu and the others were about to arrive in the capital.’
Emperor Chongzhen thought secretly: "In terms of the current situation, the opportunity to comprehensively rectify the three camps can be said to be a natural result.
If this is the case, one army should be selected from the three major camps to leave Beijing and go to Shaanxi. The strong army must be baptized from the war before it can gradually grow into a strong army.’
Although the current situation has begun to chaotic for Emperor Chongzhen, the more under this situation, the more stable the mentality is.
"The Military Affairs Bureau issued an imperial edict, ordering Cao Wen to the Shenji Camp to go to Shaanxi urgently!" Emperor Chongzhen's eyes became brighter and brighter. He looked at Wang Qia and others and said loudly.
"Since the army in Shaanxi is not enough to curb the rebellion, I will send elite troops in the Beijing camp to Shaanxi to participate in the rebellion.
I don't believe it anymore. How rampant can a mere gang of traitors be?
In addition, the Shenji Camp led by Cao Wenzhao was under the jurisdiction of the bandits before quelling the rebellion. Local authorities shall not interfere. The Military Affairs Bureau must ensure that the army belonging to the country should provide food, pay, military supplies, etc..”
Wang Qia: "..."
Zhou Yanru: “…”
The two showed a look of surprise on their faces. They never expected that the emperor would condemn the Shenji Camp and rushed to Shaanxi to participate in the rebellion.
This is something that has never been done before.
"Your Majesty, will you discuss this matter again?"
Wang Qia went up and bowed, "From the capital to Shaanxi, the terrain is complicated. Even if Cao Wenzhao has outstanding abilities, he really wants to ask Shenjiying to go to Shaanxi. Is it too late to do this?
If the Shenji Camp has not arrived yet..."
"No need to discuss it anymore. I believe in Hong Chengchou and Zhou Yuji."
Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "Even if there are many thieves gathering in Xi'an Prefecture, there is absolutely no problem if you persist for several months.
Furthermore, when the Four Guards returned to the capital were previously in Shanxi, they all condemned some of their elite troops to escort food and pay to Shaanxi.
I want to see if it is the thief who is strong or the Iron Army of the Ming Dynasty!
In addition, if there are really thieves who break through Xi'an Prefecture, fight along the river and reach Henan, or Sichuan, they must set up defenses in advance.
On the side of the Military Affairs Office, the Military Affairs Office issued an edict to the Henan, Sichuan and other departments, and ordered them to strictly guard all regions and to be responsible for the territory. After discussing the specific matters, the Military Affairs Office will submit them to the imperial front as soon as possible."
Under such circumstances, Emperor Chongzhen must consider it from many aspects, and cannot only look at the area within Shaanxi, the nearby Henan, Sichuan and other places.
Emperor Chongzhen really dared not bet on the Ming Dynasty, and if the troops in Henan, Sichuan and other places were really transferred, would the whole situation continue to be corrupt?
'etc!'
Thinking of Emperor Chongzhen, a strong army suddenly sounded, "Damn it, why did you forget all the white-rod soldiers under Qin Liangyu's command?"
When it comes to Qin Liangyu, he is definitely a man who is as good as a man.
The Baigan soldier even fought against the fierce Jianlu Eight Banners in the bloody battle of Hunhe, Chen Ce, Tong Zhongkui, Qi Jin and other tribes, and called the arrogant Jianlu, and suffered a great loss.
‘But at this time, the She'an Rebellion in Sichuan has not yet been settled.’
Emperor Chongzhen remembered the situation in Sichuan, and the spirit he raised was relaxed again: "If the white-rod soldiers led by Qin Liangyu were drawn out of Sichuan, it would inevitably affect the suppression of the rebellion there.
The chieftain forces in the southwest boundaries were also a stubborn problem of the Ming Dynasty. If you want to solve this situation, the only way is to change the land and return to the current situation.
It’s a pity that the strength of the Ming Dynasty is not enough to deal with these things. Otherwise, once many chieftains in the southwest know about this situation, there will only be more and more rebellions.’
From the rebellion in Shaanxi, to the Qin Liangyu, and to the Sichuan Rebellion, Emperor Chongzhen was in a heavy mood. The northeast, northwest and southwest of the Ming Dynasty were all making trouble. It was really difficult to play with such a mess.
"You will return to the Military Affairs Office immediately and formulate the corresponding charter as soon as possible based on what I have said." Emperor Chongzhen calmed down and frowned and said, "The Shenji Camp led by Cao Wenzhao will first set off the camp and rush to Shaanxi to participate in the fight against the rebellion!"
"I will receive the order!"
Seeing this, Wang Qia and Zhou Yanru hurriedly bowed and responded.
‘No, it’s not enough to rely on a hard camp alone to fight a stupid battle.’ Looking at the two of them leaving, Emperor Chongzhen narrowed his eyes: ‘Since the Shenji Camp led by Cao Wenzhao has also rushed to Shaanxi to quell the rebellion. If the bandit forces cannot be completely wiped out, then we must try to drive these bandits away to the grassland.
If these bandit forces could drive out of the territory of the Ming Dynasty and loot the grasslands, they could also weaken the Mongolian tribes. This matter should be planned well and a secret decree was written to Cao Wenzhao and others. If necessary, they should also be called Hong Chengchou and Chen Qiyu and others.
The current overall situation is to seize time. Even if these bandit forces become stronger in the grassland in the future, the new Ming army will be tempered. The most important thing is that the northern regions can be gradually sorted out.’
