I want to be emperor

Chapter 36
Huang Guangmao was very dissatisfied with King Jida of Lushan County.

That bastard with a goatee beard doesn't know anything except his book head, and it's fine if he doesn't understand. He also likes to point fingers, Huang Guangmao yells at the slightest neglect, and always says he wants to write a letter to impeach Huang Guangmao.

"This old bastard, why didn't he get hacked by the thief when he came here?" Huang Guangmao looked back at Wang Jida who was sitting in a sedan chair behind him.

This person actually let himself quickly lead troops into the mountains to suppress the bandits, either because he was out of his mind, or because he wanted to trick him...

They don't even know where the bandit army is on the mountain, how many people there are, and how equipped they are.

I also don't know the roads in the mountains, the terrain, and the location of the village, so if I rushed in with the main force so stupidly, I might capsize in the gutter.

If this led to a disastrous defeat by advancing lightly, Wang Jida would be able to turn around and leave the mountain with a slap on his ass, and then continue to be his Lushan County Honor. War and so on, in short, all the responsibility will be pushed on his head, Huang Guangmao.

At that time, even if Huang Guangmao was tragically killed by the bandit army, he would be charged with the defeat of the bandit army and ruin the army.

After all, Wang Jida, that bastard, wanted to cheat himself.

Regardless of whether there is a pit in the brain or malicious intent, the result is the same.

Regarding this, Huang Guangmao naturally wouldn't do what the stupid Wang Jida said!
On the surface, he is respectful and will not even postpone the things Wang Jida ordered, but when he actually acts, he will find various reasons to delay.

For example, Wang Jida asked him to rush into the mountain.

Although Huang Guangmao would not directly object, he would raise a lot of opinions.

One will say that the soldiers are tired and need time to rest.

After a while, it was said that the food was not available, and we needed to wait for the next food to arrive.

In short, Huang Guangmao wouldn't just listen to Wang Jida's words foolishly, and just rush in...

He doesn't want to die!
But, he will not directly refute Wang Jida's order, even though this Wang Jida does not actually have the authority to command him.

Wang Jida is only the county magistrate of Lushan County, and now he is relying on the name of a civil servant and landlord to dictate to Huang Guangmao, but strictly speaking, Huang Guangmao is not under his control. After all, Huang Guangmao is a pure general, and his immediate boss is in charge. Chen Zhibang of the entire Ruzhou defense.

Huang Guangmao was only sent by Chen Zhibang to Lushan County to suppress the surrounding areas and guard the rear of Luyang Pass.

It has nothing to do with local officials like Wang Jida and the local guard system.

So Wang Jida couldn't control him.

But, that's what I said, but Huang Guangmao couldn't really ignore Wang Jida.

Although Wang Jida is the Lushan county official, it seems that he is only a seventh-rank sesame official, but this person's political energy is much stronger than Huang Guangmao, a fourth-rank military general...

Because Wang Jida is a civil official, or a civil official with Jinshi background, a group of relatives, friends, teachers and friends who are also civil officials beat Wang Jida, and they can pull out a group of people to beat him up.

Nowadays, the Ming court is a typical example of a strong man and a weak man. He is a mere chief who was born as a guard commander. As long as it is not too much, he has to give Wang Jida face.

If Wang Jida was offended, he would directly launch a big move, write dozens of letters, and get a group of people to impeach him, Huang Guangmao really couldn't stand it...

So, if you can avoid provoking this kind of person, don't provoke him!

Although he was upset, the status of military generals in the country is now a common situation, and Huang Guangmao himself can't change anything, unless he dares to mutiny...

In today's general situation where Wen is strong and military is weak, don't say that Huang Guangmao is just a small commander of the guards. In Henan this place can be regarded as Chen Zhibang who holds a heavy army in his hands. He also has to be timid in Ruzhou.

Because Ruzhou also has a right councilor Tan Zhengling who was sent by Henan governor Xuanmo to guard Ruzhou's military affairs.

Ever since this Tan Zhengling arrived in Ruzhou, Chen Zhibang has had a lot of headaches because he is dishonest...

Tan Zhengling wanted to make meritorious service and get promoted, so he asked Chen Zhibang to suppress the bandits. In the past few months, Chen Zhibang had forced Chen Zhibang to fight with his elite cavalry and a group of bandit elite cavalry, causing Chen Zhibang to lose dozens of elite cavalry under his command. , but it made Chen Zhibang's heart ache.

But even so, Chen Zhibang still kept a smile on his face, taking Master Tan one bite at a time...

Because Tan Zhengling is a civil servant with four grades of red robes, and he is deeply trusted by the governor of Henan, Xuanmo.

And there are rumors that this person will be promoted soon...

Many officials in Ruzhou were not surprised by this. Through contact with Tan Zhengling for more than half a year, everyone also got to know Tan Zhengling.

At the same time, he is willing to search for money, and even more willing to spend money.

It is normal for such a person to be promoted.

However, once this person continues to rise, he is likely to become Chen Zhibang's real immediate boss.

Because Tan Zhengling had served as the magistrate of a certain place before, and now he is the right councilor, guarding the military affairs of Ruzhou by the way, and relying on guarding the military affairs of Ruzhou, he has made himself the name of a soldier, and it is said that he is very appreciated by his superiors...

If this person really continues to be promoted, according to the unspoken rules for promotion of officials in the Ming court in recent decades, coupled with his so-called Zhibing name, it is estimated that he will be changed to the deputy envoy of the inspector, and he will inevitably add a sentence of patrolling. In a certain place, supervise a certain army.

And there is a high probability that they will patrol Ruzhou, Nanyang and other places, and at the same time supervise the troops of Chen Zhibang's department and Chen Yongfu's department.

That is to say, if this person is really promoted, maybe he will really become Chen Zhibang's immediate boss.

If this person's luck is better, if he takes credit for suppressing the bandits, he might be able to transform himself into the censor of the capital and the governor of Henan.

At that time, let alone Chen Zhibang, even Zuo Liangyu and other arrogant soldiers will obediently lie down and listen to Tan Zhengling's lecture.

By the way, during this series of promotions, Tan Zhengling's rank will not change at all, they are all fourth rank.

When he was the magistrate before, he was the fourth rank, and now he is also the fourth rank when he is the right councilor. The subsequent promotions to the deputy envoy of the inspection and the censor of the capital are still the fourth rank.

However, although they are all of the fourth rank, there is a big difference between the four ranks. The status of officials in the Ming Dynasty cannot be judged by ratings alone. After all, the university scholars are only the fifth rank. Guys, it refers to these bachelors who are no more than five ranks.

And those who only have a mere fifth-rank bachelor of servants and bachelors of servants can often directly serve as ministers of various ministries.

As for Chen Zhibang's immediate boss, Xuan Mo, governor of Henan Province, he is just a fourth-rank censor. Examiner.

But, what is the official position of Zheng Qipin?The official department is in the middle of the matter, the famous official of the department!

What they were playing back then was a party struggle with Gao Dashang...

By the way, he is still a house teacher who voted for Chongzhen's four-year Jinshi.

Therefore, in the Ming Dynasty, it was useless to judge the status of an official, simply by grade, but by dispatch.

This is still the case within civil officials, let alone the ranks of civil and military officials, which is even less comparable.

Even if it is a second-rank or first-rank military general with real power in his hands, he has to obediently obey the orders of the governor who only has the fourth rank.

As for those military generals who don't have heavy soldiers on hand and are just ostentatious generals, they are three points short of civil servants, and any county magistrate of the seventh rank with a Jinshi background can handle them to death.

It was precisely because of this huge difference between civil and military skills that Chen Zhibang was always polite to Tan Zhengling.

As for Huang Guangmao, who was at the bottom, he also dared not speak out against Wang Jida, the magistrate of Lushan County.

He didn't want to offend Wang Jida, but he also didn't want to go straight to the mountain to die.

Therefore, Huang Guangmao has been suffering these few days. While bearing the pressure of Wang Jida, he also has to keep the army and his own life.

He wanted to delay as long as possible and wait for Chen Zhibang's reply.

He needs to wait for Chen Zhibang's reply and the corresponding disposal before he can decide his next move.

If Chen Zhibang really intends to encircle and suppress the Funiu mountain bandit soldiers, then reinforcements will come, and then he will just follow the trend.

If Chen Zhibang didn't plan to encircle and suppress, then there is a high probability that he would not send reinforcements, and if Chen Zhibang didn't send reinforcements, Huang Guangmao was incapable, and he didn't have enough troops to encircle and suppress the bandits in Funiu Mountain. Just drive them away.

It just took time to wait for the news, and Wang Jida was in a hurry, which made Huang Guangmao very irritable.

After suffering so much for two days, Huang Guangmao finally waited for Chen Zhibang's reply.

But after reading the reply, Huang Guangmao was in a bad mood.

Chen Zhibang said that there are many thieves in Ruzhou now, and he has to be busy suppressing thieves everywhere, so there is no reinforcement for Huang Guangmao for the time being.

And let Huang Guangmao first inquire about the reality of the Funiu Mountain bandit army. If the bandit army is not strong, you can just expel it. Well, you can expel it to the west or south. The west is the territory of Henan Prefecture, and the south is the territory of Nanyang Prefecture. The thieves rushed over and let Chen Yongfu, Zuo Liangyu and others deal with it.

If the thief army is too strong, then slow down, stop for a while, and discuss later...

In short, don't count on reinforcements, the other troops under Chen Zhibang are very busy now.

Tan Zhengling asked him to send troops to encircle and suppress the refugees in the hinterland of Ruzhou every three days. He said it was to protect the environment and the people, but Tan Zhengling almost told him: I am waiting for a large number of people to be promoted. Be quick and don't delay me. !

Tan Zhengling wants a large number of heads from the so-called thief army to be promoted. In this case, if Chen Zhibang mobilizes a large number of troops to fight those old thieves in the mountains, he may not be able to get a few heads in ten days and a half months. By then Tan Zhengling Don't get mad.

Therefore, a large number of troops under Chen Zhibang's hands now have to hang around in the hinterland of Ruzhou to encircle and suppress the bandits who are easy to win the battle.

What, you said that the main force of the thieves has already crossed the river, and now there are no large-scale thieves for him to fight in Ruzhou.

How is this possible, without seeing where the army has passed, the bandits are like mushrooms, popping up all over the place?
I can't finish killing...
