I really don't want to be emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 76
Chapter 075

Don't look at Sun Yuanhua's compromise with Cheng Shijie now, and he has softened.

Cheng Shijie also knew very well that as long as Sun Yuanhua was given a chance, as long as Cheng Shijie fell into Sun Yuanhua's hands, it would not be as simple as drinking millet porridge for a few days and sleeping in the utility room for a few days.

Sun Yuanhua is actually a proud person, he has never lost such a big person in his life.Since the second year of Apocalypse, the defense of Liaodong has been strained. He proposed two strategies of "preparing Beijing" and "defending the border" to the imperial court, which received the attention of the imperial court.At that time, Sun Chengzong, Minister of the Ministry of War, went out to the town of Jiliao to supervise the division. He was a military counselor with the army, and he was an official.

In ten years, he has grown from a juren to a second-rank governor, and he has achieved a ceiling that countless officials cannot reach in a lifetime. In ten years, no matter what kind of wind and rain he has experienced, he has never let him give up his reserve and pride.

Wei Zhongxian, who has power all over the world, and Eunuch Wei never let him bow his head. When it was time to hate him, he would not be cowardly at all.Jane is in the emperor's heart, so what about Yuan Chonghuan, who was so popular for a while, he still doesn't like him.

From Sun Chengzong to Yuan Chonghuan, they all regarded him as his right-hand man.In the second year of Chongzhen, Jiannu broke through the pass and threatened the capital. In the predicament of isolation inside and outside the pass, Sun Yuanhua united the soldiers, and with the help of Western cannons, the garrisoned eight cities and 24 forts stood still.He advocated taking Guangning as the front line and actively attacking Jiannu.When all the officials of the Ming Dynasty were afraid of building slaves like tigers, he was sophisticated, calm, and free and easy, which had always been praised by everyone inside and outside the court.

However, Sun Yuanhua, who is like the proud son of heaven, is now shattered by an unimaginable accident.He couldn't imagine Cheng Shijie, a Ninghai army with only [-] soldiers, no, no, this was not planned by Cheng Shijie, the real mastermind was that short Song who was less than four feet tall.

In any case, he never imagined how Song Xiance could control Penglai Water City and Dengzhou, an important military town with more than [-] land and water troops stationed there, in one night.

Even though he was not good at water, he didn't panic when he fell into the cold sea water. Facing the Jiannu attack and the front line of Guangning where arrows were raining like rain, he didn't move like a mountain. He was thrown into the utility room directly. For the first time in my life I felt fear.

Until he saw Cheng Shijie with a sincere smile on his face again, out of his own instinct, Sun Yuanhua felt that Cheng Shijie didn't want to hurt himself.

The reason why he doesn't want to hurt himself is actually very simple, he wants to get more things from himself.Sun Yuanhua knew from the first moment he saw Cheng Shijie that no matter sooner or later, Cheng Shijie would definitely come to him for negotiation.

Sun Yuanhua is also very confident that he will take the initiative.So in this situation, he acted very tough. It's a pity that Cheng Shijie is so rascal.

A body weighing more than 200 kilograms is pressed against a small body weighing more than 100 kilograms. Is this something humans do?

A big man was crying loudly in front of him. Is this something the leader of an army can do?

Sun Yuanhua didn't want to let Cheng Shijie succeed easily, nor did he want to compromise easily, but unfortunately, people are not as good as heaven.

Relatively speaking, Cheng Shijie insisted on principles and the bottom line, while Kong Youde and the Dongjiang Army were the least controllable factors.

Two benefits are balanced whichever is greater, and two evils are compared whichever is lesser!
Under this principle, Sun Yuanhua can only compromise with Cheng Shijie first, and first solve the problem of Kong Youde and the Dongjiang army's rebellion.

At this time, Cheng Shijie was not complacent, he was sober in the world now, he believed that Sun Yuanhua would never forget the insult and pain this time, and one day, when he had prepared everything properly, he would definitely take revenge.

As long as Cheng Shijie falls into his hands, it will definitely not be as simple as drinking millet porridge for a few days and sleeping in the utility room for a few days.

As the deputy director of the agency office, Cheng Shijie is very familiar with the way of thinking of his superiors. On the surface, Cheng Shijie was wronged this time, and he really didn't know it. However, his superiors and leaders absolutely do not believe that Cheng Shijie is innocent. At least Cheng Shijie did Similar plans and deployments.

Otherwise, Ning Haijun will not easily take Dengzhou City and control Dengzhou City smoothly.

Leaders don't need evidence, it's enough for them to have a suspicion.

In the past, Ninghai Prefecture was the blessed land of Ning Haijun, and it could also use Ninghai Prefecture to develop, but the problem is that now Ninghai Prefecture can no longer stay, and if it continues, it will be a dead end.

Sun Yuanhua didn't even need to make any big moves. He only needed to do one thing, to tear up the promise he had made with him, to cancel the power of Ning Haijun to reclaim wasteland, and Ning Haijun, who could no longer get the land, would immediately fall apart.

Even if he accepts this promise while pinching his nose for the sake of his own face, he will really dismember Ning Haijun, find a vacant place to raise Cheng Shijie, and surrender, whether he is thrown to Dengzhou Wei, or Throwing it to the Commander Si Yamen of Shandong, or the capital of Beiwo in Shandong, he would say that every day should not be done, and that the land would not work.

As for the saying, reunion after breaking the mirror, turning hostility into friendship.

Don't even think about it, it's simply impossible.

The relationship between a leader and subordinates is like a relationship between a man and a woman. Once you cheat, you will never be trusted again.

During this period of time, Cheng Shijie had been thinking about where Ning Haijun and him should go. This unexpected mutiny completely disrupted his plan.

Cheng Shijie took the teapot and poured Sun Yuanhua a cup of tea.

Sun Yuanhua said lightly: "Master Cheng, you don't need to be so courteous, just tell me what you want!"

Cheng Shijie said with a smile: "Master Futai, although you have a teacher who is the Minister of Rites, you must be a smart person from a juren to a second-rank official in ten years."

"What do you want to say?
Sun Yuanhua smiled lightly: "Is it still useful to flatter me now?"

"Master Futai, then, Cheng will speak directly. Ning Haijun did not launch a mutiny, nor did he rebel!"

"and then!"

"Four days ago, Zhang Tao, a general of the Dengzhou Army, suddenly launched a rebellion. Tens of thousands of people in Dengzhou City will be wiped out. You, Futai Lord, are wise and decisive. You see thousands of miles away and decisively order the Ning Navy to guard Cheng Shijie. The army quelled the rebellion, and Cheng Shijie led the Ning Navy with two thousand tigers, and after a fierce fight, the rebel Zhang Tao was wiped out!"

When Cheng Shijie said this, he pondered: "Afterwards, after your investigation, Mr. Futai, it was found that ten days ago, Zhang Tao, a general of the Dengzhou Army, had a conflict with Zhang Huairen, the grandson of Zhang Mengli of the Zhang family of Laiyang, in Laiyang County. Insulting and seizing Zhang Tao's concubine, in front of Zhang Tao, Zhang Huairen took Zhang Tao's concubine Chen family by force. Zhang Tao was very angry, and then led his troops to raid Zhang's ancestral house in Laiyang, slaughtering all six members of Zhang's family in Laiyang. More than a hundred mouths. Zhang Tao knew that he was going to die, so he intentionally launched a rebellion in Dengzhou, intending to capture Dengzhou, capture the naval ships of Penglai Water City, and flee to the sea..."

What Cheng Shijie said was calm and calm, but Sun Yuanhua was terrified when he heard it.

Cheng Shijie did not dare to admit that Ning Haijun launched this mutiny. He had expected it a long time ago. Zhang Tao was the only general of the Dengzhou Army who died in this mutiny. What he expected was that Cheng Shijie actually slaughtered all the Zhang family in Laiyang.

Although it is said that during his tenure as the governor of Denglai, Sun Yuanhua dealt heavy blows to the local tyrants, but he never did anything to destroy people's families.

This smiling tiger is too cruel.

"In order to avoid Master Futai going back on his word, please write an Announcement for the People, explaining Zhang Tao's uprising to the common people, and announce it in nine counties and one prefecture in Dengzhou Prefecture, five counties in Laizhou Prefecture and two prefectures in Qingzhou Prefecture. Thirteen counties and two prefectures, only in this way can Cheng believe that Master Futai will not settle accounts after the fall!"

Sun Yuanhua looked at Cheng Shijie, feeling angry in his heart, but the problem was that this matter was related to his future, and he could not care about his future or even his life.But the problem is that, as one of the few capable leaders of the Western French Party, he is even more afraid that this matter will affect his teacher Xu Guangqi.

This is the deadliest.He is very clear about Shandong's problem. Now that Kong Youde has rebelled, his Denglai New Army, Navy, Dengzhou Guard and Shandong Beiwa Capital are all locked in Dengzhou City by Cheng Shijie's men, unable to move.

If there is no army to suppress it quickly, Kong Youde's department will expand rapidly like a snowball.

Although he is very angry now, for the sake of the overall situation, for the West Fa Party, and for the teacher, he must endure it.

Even, in order to pretend to be relaxed, Sun Yuanhua said with a faint smile: "Is it that simple? You have the upper hand now, even if you want to Dengzhou City, this constitution still has to be considered!"

"Look, Master Futai, you still don't believe Cheng, this matter really has nothing to do with Cheng!"

"Tell me, what do you want?"

"Cheng wants a name!"

"Name? What name?"

"Master Futai, please order that Ninghai town be moved to southern Liaoning!"

"what?"

Sun Yuanhua stood up suddenly: "What did you say?"

"Master Futai, now Ninghai Prefecture, Ning Haijun can't stay any longer. After thinking about it, Mr. Futai has lost such a big face. No matter what, even if Cheng digs it out, you won't believe it." Cheng is innocent!"

Cheng Shijie said with a wry smile: "Cheng has the only way to go now, to kill Liaonan and survive!"

Cheng Shijie's choice at this time is to cooperate with Sun Yuanhua for a win-win situation, not to take advantage of all the advantages.The main problem is that even if Sun Yuanhua is released, Sun Yuanhua will not consider his affection, and the revenge will definitely be revenge.

But the problem is that Sun Yuanhua is not a pure person, he has his own ties, which is the Xifa Party, that is, the hard work of Xu Guangqi.

As Xu Guangqi's best student at present, the cadre of the Xifa Party, Sun Yuanhua's greatest wish is to promote his teacher to the cabinet and become a cabinet minister of the Ming court. Only in this way can the Xifa Party replace the Donglin Party and become the largest party in Ming Dynasty. The parties can also vigorously develop the West French party.

It can be said that Sun Yuanhua was one of the leaders of the Westernization Movement in the Ming Dynasty.

However, the Xifa Party is not like the Qin Party, the Jin Party, or even the Chu Party, let alone the flourishing Donglin Party. If you want to push Xu Guangqi into the cabinet, you must have dazzling military exploits.

However, Sun Yuanhua's relationship with the Guan Ning Army was doomed that he would not be able to win over the Guan Ning Army, because the Guan Ning Army was already a giant, and it was not something he could win over as a governor.

Ning Haijun did not launch a mutiny, which can be fully explained by Cheng Shijie's rhetoric.As for the truth, who knows, does it matter?
Sun Yuanhua guessed that Cheng Shijie was not a bloodthirsty person who was easy to kill. He said that Zhang Tao slaughtered more than [-] family members of the Zhang family. Sun Yuanhua didn't believe this. Only in this way can Cheng Shijie have the strength to expand his army and have a way to seize southern Liaoning.

Why in history, on October 28th in the fourth year of Chongzhen, when Zu Dashou first descended to Huang Taiji, Sun Yuanhua also sent Kong Youde's department to Liaodong by land?

Because Sun Yuanhua is a person who knows how to fight, not the kind of nerd who talks about soldiers on paper.

On the surface, Huang Taiji led an army of 680 troops, including three months before and after Dalinghe City, and achieved a lot of victories. He wiped out more than [-] elites of the Guanning Army in three battles, and wiped out more than [-] troops under Zhang Chun's army. , and forced the surrender of only [-] of the [-] officers under Zu Dashou's command, and achieved great results.

This is actually just a superficial phenomenon. If you peel off the surface of the cluster of flowers and look inside, you will definitely find that Huang Taiji didn't really take advantage of it this time.

What is the real cheapness? It is food, ordnance, and territory.

When the [-] troops surrounded Dalinghe City, how much food did they need to consume every day?Anyone who knows a little bit about military affairs can figure it out. During the war, a war horse needs to eat [-] catties of forage and [-] catties of concentrate every day.For more than three months, [-] forage and [-] catties of concentrate are needed.

This is just a war horse, how many war horses does Huang Taiji have?At least not less than [-] horses.

A soldier needs three liters of food a day, and more than 100 soldiers need 15 shi a day, and [-] shi in more than [-] days.

Where did Huang Taiji get so much food and grass?

Although part of it was seized from the Ming army, neither the Guan Ning army nor the Ming army under Zhang Chun's command had enough supplies for more than half a month. This war paid more than it gained.

That is to say, at this time, Huang Taiji is just looking good on the surface, but actually weak, otherwise Sun Yuanhua would not have ordered Kong Youde to lead more than a thousand troops to Liaodong. .

"Cheng is guilty, please please Mr. Tai, and allow Cheng and Ning Haijun to take the crime and make meritorious service."

Sun Yuanhua saw the reality of Huang Taiji, while Cheng Shijie was on the shoulders of a historical giant, and it turned out that Huang Taiji was very weak at this time.

You know, if Huang Taiji is strong, Guan Ning's army will suffer heavy losses, and Zhang Chun's more than [-] soldiers and horses will be wiped out, and Jinzhou City will only have more than [-] defenders. Wouldn't it be a good thing for Jiannu to go down to Jinzhou, an important town?

However, Huang Taiji knew his own business, so he didn't dare to bet.

Hearing Cheng Shijie's suggestion, Sun Yuanhua was really moved.

Cheng Shijie is willing to take the initiative to attack Liaonan. If he wins, the credit is his. If he loses, Cheng Shijie really died at the hands of Jiannu, then he deserves it.

"It's ready!"

Sun Yuanhua was very excited in his heart, but kept his expression on the surface: "What do you want?"

"Master Futai is really smart!"

Cheng Shijie smiled and said: "If the name is not right, the words will not go well, and if the words don't go well, nothing will happen. Cheng, a Ning navy, does not have the power to conquer one side. Since the Dongjiang Army took office as the general soldier of Huanglong, the Dongjiang Army has been in chaos. The generals are renounced, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Chen Shishi, Li Jiucheng, Shen Shikui, etc. have defected to Lord Futai, which shows that Huanglong is unable to win the hearts of the Dongjiang army."

"Impossible, the appointment and dismissal of the general of a town is not something that the governor, Ben Xian, can appoint!"

"Master Futai, don't want to lie to Cheng. Mao Wenlong, the garrison of Kuiyang, was promoted to the commander of the Dongjiang Army by the then governor of Denglai, Yuan Keli and Yuan Lin, by virtue of his meritorious service in Dongjiang Town Fort. soldiers?"

"What credit do you have?"

"Is it enough to put down the Kong Youde rebellion?"

Sun Yuanhua sighed and said, "At this time, Dengzhou City has also been raided by you, right? What's left of this Constitution?"

"Of course there are leftovers, you are still the governor of Dengzhou!"

Compromise is like that, the clothes of chaste women, as long as you take off the first one, the next one will be easier.

When Sun Yuanhua couldn't bear Cheng Shijie's weight of more than 200 kilograms, he chose to compromise, and the result was already caused.Compromise will become a habit, so Sun Yuanhua began to compromise, and at the end of the compromise, Cheng Shijie turned him into an empty shelf.

At this time, Sun Yuanhua's direct descendants, that is, the [-] elites of the Denglai New Army, Cheng Shijie will definitely not leave it to Sun Yuanhua. He needs to reorganize the Dengzhou New Army and the Dengzhou Navy.

As for the group of wine bags and rice bags commanded by Dengzhou Wei and Shandong Beiwadusi, Cheng Shijie didn't like it, and he didn't collect garbage.

After Sun Yuanhua completed the Anmin Announcement, Cheng Shijie asked people to copy more than [-] copies, signed the name of Sun Yuanhua, Governor Sun, and affixed the seal of his Youqian Capital Censor, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Governor Denglai.

Then, Cheng Shijie took his Ning Haijun confidant, first entered the Denglai new army camp, summoned all the officers, and used Western foreign instructors.

Facing all the soldiers, Cheng Shijie announced Sun Yuanhua's appointment to him. Of course, he was not the general of the Dongjiang Army, but a second-rank deputy general. Cheng Shijie will lead the Denglai new army as a deputy general and lead the Denglai new army to attack southern Liaoning.

The formation of the Denglai new army is actually very simple, but adopts the formation of the Spanish phalanx, although at this time, most of his mercenary instructors are Portuguese.

Cheng Shijie also wanted to understand that Spain at this time is the real empire on which the sun never sets. The king of Spain, Felipe IV, the king of the Spanish Habsburg dynasty, is known as the "king of the earth".He also served as King of Portugal, Emperor of Mexico, King of Hungary, Grand Duke of Austria, King of Bohemia, Holy Roman Emperor and Grand Duke of Italy, occupying almost half of Europe.

However, the problem is that the Habsburg dynasty did not establish unity. Although he was the king and grand duke of so many countries, he did not twist these countries into a single rope.

However, although the Armada of the Spanish Empire was wiped out at this time, it was still the most powerful country in the world.

Sun Yuanhua organized the Denglai New Army into three regiments, each of which had five companies under its jurisdiction, with 300 people in each company, plus a regiment headquarters and troops directly under it. About [-] people were organized into a musketeer regiment.

There are three musket regiments plus one artillery regiment, with 88 field guns under its jurisdiction, and the army has a total of more than [-] people.

Whether it is the heads of the regiments or the staff of the Denglai New Army, they are all Westerners. In addition to 27 officers, there are more than 100 craftsmen who are responsible for the repair and maintenance of artillery.

After the order was read out, the officers of Denglai's new army checked the order again and again. The handwriting on it was written by Sun Yuanhua himself. It was not only stamped with his official seal, but also a private seal, which meant that the order was genuine.

As a mercenary, he is not as greedy for power as the officers of other armies, and directly handles the handover with Cheng Shijie.

When the news spread, all the soldiers of Denglai's new army were blown up.

"how can that be?"

"Didn't Ning Haijun mutiny?"

"How did he become our commander?"

"This Cheng Shijie is not the illegitimate son of the governor, is he?"

"The ages don't match. Our governor is fifty, and this Cheng is 35!"

"It's not surprising that a 15-year-old married man has a son!"

"This old man has a grandson at the age of 37!"

"That's quite possible!"

"But Mr. Cheng and Mr. Sun look different!"

"It's also possible for the child to resemble its mother!"

After the handover was over, Cheng Shijie said, "Bring it in!"

Several large vehicles drove into the barracks.

Cheng Shijie directly opened a large box, only to see the silver light shining inside.

Seeing the silver, the eyes of the soldiers of Denglai's new army went straight.

"Everyone in the army, your military salary will be increased by two yuan on the original basis!"

Cheng Shijie already knew that the soldiers of Denglai's new army could get one or two taels of silver every month, but as the value of food in Dengzhou rose rapidly, these soldiers felt the pressure of life.

Although there are not many silver coins, it is for nothing, isn't it?

With Yinzi clearing the way, Cheng Shijie's reorganization of Denglai's new army went smoothly.

The staff composed of 27 Western military officers was retained. Of course, they were no longer the staff of Deng Lai's new army, but the staff of the Ning Navy.After all, the Ning Haijun at this time is a grass-roots team, while the Denglai New Army is a professional army in the true sense.

Sun Yuanhua believed too much in the Spanish army and technology. The Spanish navy is strong, but the army, their musketeers on land, and the Ning Navy's crossbowmen can shoot them down.

Secondly, these Western military officers are only professional mercenaries, and they still have professional ethics. In history, they did not fight Kong Youde to the death. It is very likely that Kong Youde also adopted this method.

Cheng Shijie quickly reorganized Denglai's new army, and directly used the establishment of Ning Haijun, with 12 people as a team and four teams as a sentry.

A total of 260 people from four sentries plus five teams is a division, and there is one hundred generals.

The four divisions form a general manager, and there is one general manager.1000 people per total.

The three musket regiments of Denglai's new army were organized into five generals.

The 88 artillery units were directly reorganized into an artillery department with one commander.

In the era of Sun Yuanhua, the commanders and deputy commanders of the Dengzhou New Army were all Westerners, and some of the company commanders were also Westerners. With the reorganization of Cheng Shijie, a large number of 21 generals, generals, etc. were promoted in the Denglai New Army. Six generals, a total of 130 officers above the seventh rank, and more than [-] post chiefs from the seventh rank.

This is also a happy moment.

Sun Yuanhua has never trained the Denglai new army on the issue of loyalty. In this regard, the Ning Navy has done a very good job, but with more than 100 officers of the Ning Navy serving as instructors, they have ideologically educated the Denglai New Army.

At the same time, Cheng Shijie also announced to Denglai's new army, no, it is now the sixth to No.11 generals of the Ning Navy, with [-] soldiers, announcing that they will enjoy all the benefits of the Ning Navy soldiers from now on.

"Soldiers and soldiers, from now on, the food supply will no longer be limited. As much as you can eat, this general will let you eat as much as you want!"

Cheng Shijie didn't feel distressed at all, the military pay for rewarding the army was seized from Sun Yuanhua's treasury, taking Sun Yuanhua's money to appease the army, Cheng Shijie had no psychological burden.

"Those who died in battle will be given 20 taels of silver as a pension, and one hundred acres of land can be passed down to the family. Beheaded one level, rewarded ten acres of land, and captured an enemy, rewarded fifteen acres of land. Injured silver, and Ning Haijun will be responsible for medical treatment. ten taels of silver"

Following the promulgation of these policies and regulations, more than [-] officers and soldiers cheered loudly from the new Denglai Army and the newly formed six generals of the Restless Navy.

Cheng Shijie heaved a sigh of relief. From now on, the Denglai New Army will be named Cheng.

Cheng Shijie left Shen Mingyu as the commander, responsible for commanding the new Six Generals.

Of course, Cheng Shijie couldn't help it, he had no one to use.

With the completion of the Denglai new army, Cheng Shijie asked people to bring the money and went directly to the camp of the Penglai Navy and the Dengzhou Navy.

Like the Denglai New Army barracks, Sun Yuanhua's order was announced first, and then the silver cleared the way, and then reorganized, but it was different from the army organization.

Navy officials come according to the ship, four hundred gunboats, the full crew is only 37 people, and the captain is also at the level of the captain, and enjoys the treatment of the captain.

But the five gunboats were too small, and Cheng Shijie didn't understand naval battles anyway, so he just announced to all the soldiers that they would enjoy Ning Haijun's treatment in the future.

For the rest, these navy officers and soldiers all know. After all, they have heard the most during this period, that is, Ning Haijun's benefits are particularly good.

From morning to night, Cheng Shijie had a preliminary grasp of the Dengzhou Navy and the Dongjiang Navy, with a total of more than 300 warships.

After finishing all this work, Cheng Shijie returned to the Governor's Office of Dengzhou City again.

"How does it feel to be the owner of Dengzhou?"

Seeing Cheng Shijie's tired face, Sun Yuanhua felt secretly refreshed.

"Tired... Tired to death!"

Sun Yuanhua was a little proud: "You kicked Ben Xian away, but you think you can sit up in this position?"

"Master Futai, you are wronged!"

Cheng Shijie sighed and said, "Believe it or not, Cheng really doesn't have the intention to replace Mr. Futai!"

"Tell me, what do you want Ben Xian to do now!"

"Convict Kong Youde of treason and order Cheng to suppress the rebels!"

Cheng Shijie wanted to attack Liaonan, so naturally he would not allow Kong Youde to wreak havoc in Shandong, anyway, how could he allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?
What's more, he is still a big traitor.

If you don't kill Kong Youde, can you keep it for the New Year?
PS: I want to talk about two things. Last night I worked overtime until four in the morning. I went back to the rental house and wrote more than 1000 words. I couldn’t bear it anymore, so I had to sleep for a while.I'm very sorry, the second thing, it's a bit disgusting, No.2 in the fan list, changed his nickname to TX Cheng Zhiba and left, I reported it, and now he has restored his original digital nickname.The writing is not good, you can raise your opinion, and you can take it off the shelf if you don’t want to read it, but don’t use this method. Although Lao Cheng is a piece of money, he would rather not give a reward like this.Jokes are jokes, don't make fun of your family, no one jumped out of the cracks in the rocks.
