Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 163 Liaodong Layout (2)

"Wen Qing, sit down."

Emperor Chongzhen stretched out his hand to signal, and said with a slight smile: "Some of what you have said is something I have already thought about, and some are still under consideration.

I called you here this time because I have a few things to do, and I want Wen Qing to do well, so that Daming can stay in a relatively stable situation in the Liaodong area. "

If you want to simply promote Liu Xingzuo as the general officer of Dongjiang Town and realize your layout for the front line of Liaodong, it is not simply to promote Liu Xingzuo.

What Emperor Chongzhen wanted was to create chaos in Liaodong, but Dongjiang Town alone would not be enough to plan this 'chaos'.

Looking at the problem from a realistic point of view, after all, Dongjiang Town is an isolated island outside Liaodong, but this island has a unique location and a relatively large area.

However, if you want Dongjiang Town to achieve the strategic positioning of the advance base for attacking Liaodong, you must be inseparable from Denglai's support.

At the same time, it was decided to launch a sea raid on southern Liaoning. If the Denglai Navy can cooperate with the operation, it will have the effect of one plus one greater than two.

Therefore, the position of governor of Denglai must be replaced. At least the new governor of Denglai will not discriminate against Dongjiang Town in his heart, and he can cooperate with Sun Chengzong who came out of Liaodong.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen wanted to ask Sun Yuanhua, who had stayed in the Liao Dynasty, to serve as the governor of Denglai, and effectively cooperate with Dongjiang Town to provide military supplies to Liu Xingzuo's troops.

However, considering that the big chess game in Liaodong cannot be supported by Sun Yuanhua alone, even if he transfers Chen Jisheng, Mao Chenglu, Kong Youde and other Mao Wenlong's old minions to the capital, if the situation in Shandong cannot be stabilized, it will not be able to Play a positive role in Liaodong.

So Emperor Chongzhen thought of another person. This person served as the governor of Denglai in the Tianqi Dynasty, effectively cooperated with Sun Chengzong's strategy in Liaodong, and had a relationship with Liu Xingzuo, and that person was Yuan Keli who was at home.

When Wen Tiren listened to Emperor Chongzhen's words, he felt a burst of horror in his heart, surprise in his brows, he might not be able to withstand so many people being moved at once.

"Wen Qing, I will hand over the matter of promoting Liu Xingzuo to Wang Qing and Li Qing." Looking at Wen Tiren with a look of surprise on his face, Emperor Chongzhen who tapped on the dragon case with his fingers smiled slightly and said, "However, Governor Denglai, Regarding the governor of Shandong, I still need you to share my worries.

I don't look at the process, as long as the result, if Wen Qing can do this, I will leave the position of cabinet assistant to Wen Qing, is Wen Qing willing to share my worries? "

The original intention of setting up the Military Aircraft Department was to check and balance the cabinet, and to grasp the military command power, so that it would be easier to deal with the internal and external wars of the Ming Dynasty, without getting involved in turmoil.

But this does not mean that Emperor Chongzhen had to ignore the existence of the cabinet. He really wanted to reverse the political ecology of "the gentlemen are noble and the martial are cheap", but he didn't think about overcorrecting.

At this stage, the political ecology that promotes top-level military and political checks and balances is to better control Daming. In the future, the situation will become clear. In addition to the military and government, the judiciary must also be independent.

If you want to solve the corruption of officials and strictly enforce the Ming Dynasty's laws and regulations, the status of the Ministry of Punishment must be improved, but it will be a long time later if you want to facilitate this.

Looking at Wen Tiren who was deep in thought, Emperor Chongzhen was not in a hurry. After all, this matter is easy to say, but it is also somewhat difficult to do.

Even Wen Tiren had to weigh the pros and cons. If he really expressed his attitude too early, Emperor Chongzhen would be suspicious.

Wen Tiren, who hesitated again and again, stood up, bowed his hands respectfully to Emperor Chongzhen, and said, "I... would like to share your majesty's worries."

"Okay, Wen Qing is worthy of being Daming's buttocks, and worthy of being my brawny thigh."

Upon seeing this, Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile: "So, Wen Qing will go down and think about how to implement this matter as soon as possible, and I will wait for the good news."

As the emperor of Ming Dynasty, he can't do everything at the front, he must know how to weigh the pros and cons, and he must know how to take advantage of the contradictions between the court and the court.

The result of the simple and rude administrative style is that the courtiers have no intention of political affairs, and they only focus on figuring out the holy will, and get into the vicious circle of scheming and scheming.

Governing the country is like cooking a small dish. When to put it in the pot, and whether the heat is high or low, all of these are exquisite. If you blindly work hard and blindly, it is purely a pot of stewing.

Looking at Wen Tiren who left with his mind on his mind, Emperor Chongzhen who was sitting up stood up, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and walked towards the place where the map was hanging beside him.

'If these plans of mine can be completed one by one, then Dongjiang Town has Liu Xingzuo, Denglai has Sun Yuanhua, Shandong has Yuan Keli, Liaodong has Sun Chengzong, plus Lu Xiangsheng, the strategic defense line around Liaodong is basically finalized. '

Pointing to the geographical map in front of him, Emperor Chongzhen secretly said: "Liaodong no longer regards regaining the lost land as its strategic goal, but has turned to a strategic defensive posture, constantly weakening the foundation of Jianlu from the flanks, which gave Daming a breath of relief to win gas.

The heavy burden of Liao's salary can be reduced from the people of Ming Dynasty, and the intensified class conflicts can be correspondingly alleviated. '

During the Little Ice Age in Daming, disasters occurred frequently in various places, the taxation system was very bad, the government’s income and expenditure were unbalanced, and various local taxes were exorbitant. , that day is farewell.

Why did the uprising of the rogue bandits in the Chongzhen Dynasty intensify, and they couldn't be culled?

Isn't the fundamental reason still that the people at the bottom have no way out?
The scholar class, headed by civil servants, has never seen them as human beings, they are pure means of production, and clay figurines still have some vitality, let alone living people?
"My lord, the Secretary of General Administration has passed on many memorials to the Supervisor of Rites, most of which are about Yuan Chonghuan." Seeing that his lord no longer handles government affairs, Pang Tianshou stepped forward cautiously and said in a low voice.

The fact that Yuan Chonghuan was sent to prison has always tied the hearts of ministers in the court, and Emperor Chongzhen could think of this.

"Don't worry about it, stay here."

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "It's getting late, I'm going back to the harem to rest, what's the matter, let's talk about it tomorrow, it's not too late."

Emperor Chongzhen didn’t even need to read the memorandums written by the Secretary of General Administration. He could guess what was written on them. It was nothing more than to persuade himself that even if Yuan Chonghuan was guilty, he should not be handed over to Jin Yiwei for investigation. to do it.

But if Yuan Chonghuan is really handed over to the Sanju Judiciary for investigation, is the initiative still in the hands of Emperor Chongzhen?
The ass decides the head. Since Emperor Chongzhen wanted to use Yuan Chonghuan's incident to frighten the court and achieve some of his follow-up deployments, Jin Yiwei must participate, otherwise some things are not easy to do, which will also affect the layout of Liaodong.
