Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 40
Beginning in the 47th year of Wanli, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't count the battle of Saerhu that destroyed the dignity of Ming Dynasty. How many times did Ming Dynasty be pressed and rubbed on the ground repeatedly by the murderous Jian captives on the border of Liaodong.

Even in the days of Tianqi, the great victory in Ningyuan, where Yuan Chonghuan became famous, in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, was a complete disastrous defeat, not a great victory!

Although Ningyuan City did not fall into the hands of Jianlu, but Juehua Island, a strategic maritime location, had Jianlu steal the tower, and all the strategic materials hoarded were lost, and Ming's naval forces on the Liaoxi Sea suffered heavy losses.

Liaodong, unknowingly, has become a dungeon for some people to gain fame and accumulate background, but the imperial court spends real money every year!

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Zhou Yanru said loudly, then walked forward quickly, cupped his hands and said: "If you hit one punch, you can avoid a hundred punches, this is undoubtedly a very appropriate conclusion in my opinion.

I thought that sending several elite divisions to Shimen Town in advance to threaten Jianlu who entered the pass would indeed strengthen our great power of the Ming Dynasty! "

Emperor Chongzhen's expression was indifferent, looking at Zhou Yanru who had expressed his opinion in advance, there was an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth, no wonder Zhou Yanru's official career was outstanding, his ability to figure out what he wanted and express his attitude was indeed extraordinary.

Sun Chengzong, Wang Qia, Li Banghua, and Xu Guangqi frowned slightly, and fell into deep thought with different expressions.

On the one hand, they were shocked by the sentence that Emperor Chongzhen said: Hit with one punch, and avoid the deep meaning of a hundred punches.

On the other hand, I was thinking, if this is really the case, should I send those worthy soldiers and generals to station in Shimen Town under the current turbulent situation?

"Sun Qing, what do you think?"

Emperor Chongzhen didn't know either. He looked at Sun Chengzong and said, "Since it is to discuss the general policy, let's speak freely. Don't have any scruples. Like Zhou Qing, you can speak out if you have different opinions."

Zhou Yanru's flattery should be encouraged, not discouraged. After all, the current military aircraft department cannot be regarded as a military aircraft department that completely obeys his will, and it still needs time to adjust and beat him.

"Your Majesty, I think what you just said is very good!"

Sun Chengzong thought for a while, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "It is a big blow for me, Ming Dynasty, to build the frontier of the barbarians and enter the pass.

Since Jianlu ravaged Liaodong, this is the first time Jianlu has entered the hinterland of Ming Dynasty. The more dangerous the situation is, the more we must express our position and attitude.

Of course, which army to send over and which general to call over is the key. If we really want to enter Shimen Town, I, Daming, must be able to bite off a piece of flesh from Jianlu! "

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

Wang Qia, Li Banghua, and Xu Guangqi stepped forward one after another to answer the question.

"These ministers and I have the same attitude."

After Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he nodded slightly and said: "I am already in the process of rectifying the soldiers and horses stationed in Shimen Town, and we will discuss this matter in detail after a few more days.

Next, let's discuss in detail how many reinforcements should be transferred from Xuanda and other places, and which generals should be given the right to act cheaply.

But on the main road to Shenjing, strengthen a few lines of defense to ensure that the invaders will not attack all the way from Zunhua and kill them under the rule of Shenjing? "

In Emperor Chongzhen's mind, he had been prepared to fight with the Jianlu who invaded Ming Dynasty for several months, and through this battle, he would achieve the goal of rebuilding the defense of Gyeonggi.

Yuan Chonghuan was bound to be taken down, but definitely not at this moment.

The generals of the Liao faction need to be divided and dismantled.

Ji Miyong Sanxie needs to re-plan and deploy...

There are many things that need to be done by Emperor Chongzhen, so he must be cautious and steady. If he can't fully control the capital when he builds the border with captives and bandits, he can just lie down.

After all, the roots of Ming Dynasty have been rotten. It is by no means empty talk that the imperial power will not go to the countryside. The basic disk is almost taken away.

On the other hand, Sun Chengzong, Wang Qia and the others expressed that they could not keep up with the leaping thinking of Emperor Chongzhen. Isn't this back to the starting point?

And the soldiers and horses stationed in Shimen Town, the emperor has already selected it?

Is it the new Brave Guard Battalion?
Or the three so-called elites from the Beijing camp?
It's hard to fathom!
Feeling emotional, Li Banghua stepped forward, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I think that what Sun Gong said before, increasing troops to Sanhe is something the court must do.

In addition, Jizhou also needs to send more troops to station.

Surrounding Sanhe and Jizhou in this way, the imperial court could build three front, middle, and rear defense lines to defend Shenjing along the lines of Pinggu, Panshan, and Yutian, Miyun, Shunyi, and Baodi, and Tongzhou and Xianghe respectively. "

"My minister agrees!"

Sun Chengzong cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, according to my opinion, you can order Hou Shilu, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town, to lead [-] elite troops to Sanhe and set up a central defense line.

You Shiwei, the commander-in-chief of Changping, was ordered to lead an elite division of [-] troops to station in Tongzhou to take charge and set up a defense line.

As for the important place in Jizhou, I have one person to recommend. However, this person is rebellious and likes to be arbitrary. Whether he is suitable to sit in Jizhou in accordance with the current situation still needs to be decided by His Majesty. "

"What Sun Qing said was Man Gui, the commander-in-chief of Datong?"

Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while, looked at Sun Chengzong and said.

"Go back to your majesty, it is this person."

Sun Chengzong cupped his hands.

At this time, the military plane was in the main hall, and fell into silence. The people recommended by Sun Chengzong, Wang Qia and Li Banghua, knew that most of them were generals who had been in Liaoqian before.

On the side of the Military Aircraft Department, except for Sun Chengzong who had the experience of going out of Liaodong, people like Wang Qia and Li Banghua did not have such experience.

"I think this person is available."

Emperor Chongzhen pondered for a while, looked at Sun Chengzong and said, "But in my heart, the person who sits in Jizhou is not Mangui, but the Qing family."

Wang Qia, Li Banghua, Zhou Yanru, and Xu Guangqi looked shocked and looked at Emperor Chongzhen in disbelief, feeling horrified in their hearts.

No one expected that the emperor was going to appoint Sun Chengzong to go out of Beijing to Jizhou to be in charge of setting up the front line of defense. This was really beyond everyone's expectations.

"The minister is willing to go!"

Sun Chengzong's expression was flat, and he clasped his hands in response.

Emperor Chongzhen stepped forward, under the gaze of everyone, held Sun Chengzong's arms, and said: "Sun Qing, I intend to ask you to sit in Jizhou and take charge of the front, middle and rear defense lines.

At the same time, the people recommended by the Qing family just now, Hou Shilu can lead his troops into Sanhe, You Shiwei can lead his troops into Tongzhou, and Mangui can lead his troops into Jizhou to assist the Qing family in taking charge of the three defense lines.

And taking advantage of the time when Jianlu did not reveal his invasion of Shenjing, in the name of the Minister of Military Aircraft, he restructured the deployment of the front, middle and rear three defense lines. "

As soon as Emperor Chongzhen said this, everyone present, including Sun Chengzong, was surprised. Under the current situation, the authority granted by the emperor is not insignificant!
"The minister leads the order!"

Sun Chengzong suppressed the shock in his heart and hurriedly bowed his head in response.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Emperor Chongzhen said hello three times in succession, and said with a smile on his face: "The Military Aircraft Department will immediately draw up an imperial edict based on the matter discussed just now, and send it out tomorrow.

Appoint Sun Qing as a special imperial envoy to take charge of the front, middle and rear three defenses, give Fang Jian, Wang Ming flag, and allow to act cheaply.
At the same time, they sent people to Datong, Xuanfu, and Changping, and ordered Mangui, Hou Shilu, and You Shiwei to lead their elite troops to station! "

Wang Qia and the others were a little dumbfounded.

Is the authority granted by the emperor to Sun Chengzong a little too heavy? From the rank of commander-in-chief down, anyone who violates the military order can be killed first and then played.

The key point is that the front, middle and rear three defense lines have also disrupted the previous ownership of the three associations in the pass, but with the Shangfang sword and the Wangming flag, Sun Chengzong can overwhelm everything!
