Chapter 23 Slap in the face
When Xiong Tingbi came to Liaodong Jinglue Yamen, there were already people waiting here.
In addition to the current Liaodong Governor Yuan Yingtai, there is another person who is also waiting for Xiong Tingbi. This person is Liaodong Governor Xue Guoyong.
Xiong Tingbi also had no favorable impression of Xue Guoyong. This person and Yuan Yingtai were fellow Shanxi fellows, which meant that the two were township party members.
Although Xue Guoyong's Donglin Party attributes are not that strong, he has a close relationship with Yuan Yingtai, otherwise the Donglin Party would not let him partner with Yuan Yingtai.
Xue Guoyong did not care about any of the things Yuan Yingtai did in Liaodong, and he did not impeach Yuan Yingtai.
You must know that Xiong Tingbi and Wang Huazhen of the Donglin Party were causing a lot of trouble. The feud between the governor and the governor was not a small matter.
Now that Xiong Tingbi has driven away Yuan Yingtai, how can Xue Guoyong look good on Xiong Tingbi?
Xiong Tingbi didn't care much about Xue Guoyong. He walked up to Yuan Yingtai expressionlessly: "Master Yuan!"
"Master Xiong!" Yuan Yingtai said coldly. Naturally, he and Xiong Tingbi were on the same page. This enmity was not due to the Liaodong strategy, but because Xiong Tingbi himself was a member of the Chu Party, and Yuan Yingtai was a member of the Donglin Party.
Now that the Donglin Party has come to power, the Zhejiang Party has been defeated, and Fang Congzhe has returned to his hometown in despair. Xiong Tingbi is like an ink dot on a piece of white paper, and the Donglin Party always wants to reach out and grab it for him.
This is what the Donglin Party thought and did. They did take Xiong Tingbi off as a black spot, but who knows why Xiong Tingbi was taken back again.
The letter from the capital also arrived, and Yuan Yingtai also learned the reason why Xiong Tingbi was appointed. It was said that it was because of a dream of His Majesty the Emperor.
How ridiculous?
Of course, the subsequent letter made Yuan Yingtai very worried, because the person who interpreted His Majesty's dream was a Taoist priest named Han Li, and this Taoist priest was actually brought into the palace by an eunuch named Wei Zhongxian. Under such circumstances, Xiong Tingbi was resurrected.
, this is naturally caused by the Taoist priest named Han Li.
Obviously Xiong Tingbi has taken refuge with the eunuch, so Yuan Yingtai is even more displeased with Xiong Tingbi!
It is a shame for a scholar to take refuge in an eunuch!
Facing Xiong Tingbi like this, Yuan Yingtai naturally couldn't give him a good look. After saying hello, he waved his sleeves and left.
Xiong Tingbi's face also darkened. Although the two sides were not fighting each other, they were not at the point of breaking out. I let you go because you were stupid. It was His Majesty's decree. Who are you showing off your face to?
Xiong Tingbi snorted coldly, turned around and walked in. This time he could get the position of Liaodong Manager. As for Yuan Yingtai, just let him go!
The handover was completed quickly, and Yuan Yingtai did not do anything in this matter: "Master Xiong, the handover is completed, Yuan Mou left."
"Master Yuan, go slowly." Xiong Tingbi said expressionlessly: "Commander Li, order the guards to drive all the refugees from Shenyang and Liaoyang out of the city. Anyone who resists will be killed."
Xiong Tingbi said this very loudly. In fact, he meant it to Yuan Yingtai.
Aren't you going to recruit these people? Then I'll get rid of them all. Although this was what was meant to be done, Xiong Tingbi said it in front of Yuan Yingtai. This is revenge.
Xiong Tingbi is not big-hearted either. If you try to shame me, I will slap you in the face.
When Yuan Yingtai heard this, the flesh on his face twitched, and his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He looked at Xiong Tingbi and said, "Master Xiong, this is too much!"
"What's too much?" Xiong Tingbi said with some confusion: "This is our affairs in Liaodong, and it is under the jurisdiction of our Liaodong Economic and Strategy Office. When I exercise the power granted by His Majesty, is it possible that I still need Mr. Yuan to make the decision? Although this land in Liaodong is remote
, but it is also the land of the Ming Dynasty, under the rule of His Majesty. So Mr. Yuan, I don’t need to explain this matter to you, right?"
Listening to Xiong Tingbi's words and looking at his proudly raised head and the sneer on his lips, Yuan Yingtai was trembling with anger.
However, Yuan Yingtai also knew that he could not quarrel with Xiong Tingbi here now. Once he quarreled, he would be the only one who would be embarrassed.
Thinking of this, Yuan Yingtai flicked his sleeves and strode outside, feeling furious in his heart. After returning to Beijing this time, he must make Xiong Tingbi look good, he must make him look good!
Looking at Yuan Yingtai's back, Xiong Tingbi snorted coldly, his voice full of disdain, and then said to Li Rongguang next to him: "General Li, do as I say!"
"Really?" Li Rongguang was stunned. He thought that Xiong Tingbi did this just to make Yuan Yingtai angry, but he didn't expect that Xiong Tingbi would really do this.
Xiong Tingbi glanced at Li Rongguang and said with a wry smile: "Although I am angry with Yuan Yingtai for his arrogance and incompetence, I will not anger him with big things. Do you know why your majesty is attacking me this time? Because Yuan Yingtai got a title
This book details what he did in Liaodong, which was his recruitment of Mongolian refugees as soldiers."
"This question book was sent to me as a token of merit, but after reading it, His Majesty became very angry. He realized that Yuan Yingtai was too talented and too embarrassed to hold such a great responsibility, so he came to terms with me."
Li Rongguang was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that there was such an inside story. He said slightly excitedly: "My emperor is a wise man!"
"It's a sage!" Xiong Tingbi also sighed with emotion, and then said: "There must be boar skins among those Mongolian surrenderers. Once the boar skins come over, these people will definitely make noise in the city, or even switch sides. So we must
These people must be driven out of the city, but they must not be left idle, as freeloaders do not want them.”
"The wild boar skin is definitely coming. What we have to do now is to stabilize Liaoyang and Shenyang. As long as Liaoyang and Shenyang are not lost, we still have something to do in Liaodong."
"Let the Mongolians send troops to dig trenches and moats, and send people to watch them. If they resist, they will be killed. One thing you have to remember is that they must not be allowed to enter the city. In addition, call all the generals
Come, I want to make arrangements. There is only one thing we have to do, and that is to defend Shenyang and Liaoyang. If Boar Skin wants to attack the city, let me see how many lives they have to fill it!"
Xiong Tingbi was very confident in defending the city. There were hundreds of thousands of Ming troops in Shenyang and Liaoyang. It was definitely impossible to go out to fight. The Liao people were timid, but the wild boar skins were brave. Once they left the city, they would be defeated. Some people were even afraid of fighting and collapsed first.
But defending the city is different. Inside the city, the risk factor is low and there is no place to run. The wild boar skin is not good at attacking fortresses. If you want to capture Liaoyang and Shenyang, you have to risk your life.
Xiong Tingbi knew exactly how difficult it was to siege the city and how great the damage was. If the wild boar skin had to be filled with life, Xiong Tingbi would jump up for joy. How many people would fill the wild boar skin? Even if it was two for one, Xiong Tingbi would be willing to do so.
Trade it for boar skin!
He still remembers the copy of His Majesty's secret decree that Chen Hong gave him:
Chapter completed!
