Chapter 205 Dismantling the Guanning Warlord Trend
To be honest, when he heard Liu Wang's report, Hu Guang really doubted whether Wu Sangui had traveled through time, so he would say this sentence?
But looking back, at this time, yelling this sentence and making similar actions really have the effect of boosting the morale of the court, and it is also very disrespectful to Hu Guang's temper.

And Wu Sangui also happens to be the descendant of the general family, who is able to read and write, and it is not uncommon for him to be familiar with historical allusions.In addition, he can leave such a great reputation in history, and his own political sense, even if he is still young, is not low.

At this time, Wu Sangui, like a newborn calf, had a vigor that those veterans did not have, which was especially precious in the late Ming Dynasty when there were so many veterans.

It is up to Hu Guang to choose Wu Sangui and those veterans, even if Wu Sangui is immature now, he would rather choose Wu Sangui instead of those veterans.

Therefore, Hu Guang's first thought after hearing the news was to reward Wu Sangui heavily and use it as a model.By the way, another problem can be solved.

At this time, Zu Dashou who was standing below could not help but smile happily when he saw that Wu Sangui's nephew was so valued by the emperor.

But it is true, this nephew is the most outstanding among the descendants of the ancestors and Wu clans.I have always been optimistic about this nephew and gave him great support.

Zu Dashou smiled and recalled in his heart that he knew the information about the [-] Mongol Tartars at that time, and he gathered the most elite [-] cavalry army here, so there is no doubt that he could win the battle.I just didn't expect that this nephew was very smart, and he did things according to the circumstances, which greatly boosted Ming's morale. It can be seen that it is also very suitable for the emperor's appetite, which is really good!It is estimated that he is at least a general this time, and even a vice general is possible!

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Emperor Chongzhen suddenly smiling, glanced at the ministers, and said loudly: "Defend Wu Sangui, make great contributions, boost my morale, raise my prestige, I am very relieved, and I specially confer Wu Sangui as a conquest General, the commander-in-chief of Jinzhou, hereby!"

In the original history, Wu Sangui's battle of fame was in the third year of Chongzhen, when only dozens of cavaliers rescued his besieged father Wu Xiang from tens of thousands of Jianlu troops.Gained a legendary reputation of "filial piety and hearing of the nine sides, bravely crowning the three armies", and was named a guerrilla for this reason.

And in this plane, Wu Sangui, like Huo Qubing of the Han Dynasty, also only led an army of 17 cavalry to conquer the Tartars and won a big victory.Of course, there are also differences. Huo Qubing's big victory was far from Wu Sangui's comparison this time. In addition, Huo Qubing was one year younger than Wu Sangui at the time, only [-] years old.

No matter what, Wu Sangui, relying on his own ability, was awarded the title of General Conquering Captives at a young age, and became the commander-in-chief guarding one side, which is unique in Ming Dynasty!It can be seen from this, how much Wu Sangui won the Sacred Heart this time, and he really did not hesitate to reward him!
However, amidst the astonishment and envy of a group of civil and military officials, another group of people were stunned, including Zu Dashou himself. This is wrong!
The first assistant, Wen Tiren, was also a little speechless, but he was not sure whether the emperor did it on purpose.As the chief assistant, he still wanted to remind the next one, so he went out and played to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Jinzhou already has Wu Xiang, the commander-in-chief, and Wu Sangui is his son!"

When Hu Guang heard this, he secretly laughed in his heart, but on the surface he suddenly realized, and then said immediately: "This is a momentary oversight. In this way, isn't there a shortage of the general army of Datong, so I transferred Wu Xiang to be the commander-in-chief of Datong! Two people from one family General, the Wu family is really my Ming general!"

Such a change solved the conflict just now, and the emperor's golden words would not be a problem.

However, while Zu Dashou was happy for the Wu family, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

But Wen Tiren was different. He was regarded as the emperor's confidant. When discussing Liaodong's personnel affairs with the emperor several times, he understood that both the emperor and himself were a little worried about the warlordization of the Liaodong generals.

This is mainly due to the fact that Zu Dashou was able to take the army away from the capital city.The root cause is that there is no supervisor in the Guanning Army, and there is no restriction from the governor of Liaodong, and the relationship between the generals of the Guanning Army is intricate, and most of them are relatives or family members of Zu Dashou.

Although Zu Dashou was transferred from the Guan Ning Army earlier, He Kegang, Cao Wenzhao and others were mentioned.But there is Wu Xiang, the veteran leader of the Guan Ning Army, and people from other ancestral lines also have leaders.

Now the emperor temporarily borrowed Wu Sangui's matter, although the Wu family had an extra general, but he was able to take advantage of the situation to transfer Wu Xiang away.Based on Wu Sangui's current age and qualifications, he must not be able to compare with Wu Xiang.

If they didn't do this, if they transferred Zu Dashou, and then directly transferred Wu Xiang, it would definitely cause a backlash from the Zu and Wu families.However, promoting Wu Sangui to the position of the chief soldier took Wu Xiang's position, but it could somewhat alleviate the dissatisfaction of the ancestors and Wu families and appease them.

Thinking of this, Wen Tiren understood the emperor's intention.Immediately, he couldn't help but cast a second glance at the emperor, and then immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty is holy!"

After hearing this, Hu Guang didn't know that Wen Tiren was referring to Shengming, not to solve the problem of conflict, but to initially solve the problem of warlord tendencies in Guanning's army.This was indeed a clever trick he thought of on the spur of the moment, and he felt a little proud of being complimented by Wen Tiren.

But at this time, it is not the time to be happy.Hu Guang thought to himself, and then sat back on the throne, and waited until the sound of the quiet whip sounded and the palace of the Emperor became quiet again.He glanced at the ministers, and suddenly his face became serious.

After a while, after accumulating a little serious atmosphere, Hu Guangda said in a loud voice: "I have said that in this battle, all the cities in the capital, the whole city, must work together to resist, and those who dare to surrender, I will punish all the nine clans, it has nothing to do with false surrender or real surrender! But as long as we can stop Jianlu from attacking the city, all court officials will be promoted by leaps and bounds, and the people in the city will be exempted from tax for three years! Therefore, the people in Changli will be exempted from tax for three years, and I will never break my promise !"

When he mentioned this matter, all civil and military officials in the Huangji Hall knew that what the emperor said was definitely not about the three-year tax exemption for the people of Changli, but something else!

Sure enough, after the emperor said this, his voice suddenly became severe, and he said loudly: "Yongping magistrate Zhang Yangchu, military preparation Dao Bai Yangcui, deputy general Yang Wenkui, guerrilla Yang Shengyuan and other 15 people surrendered to Jianlu, ignoring my will. , causing countless deaths and injuries to the people of Yongping. These traitorous people, I will keep my promise, punish their nine clans, to make an example of others, and sacrifice blood to the people who died in vain!"

Having said that, he stopped for a while, glanced coldly at the ministers, and shouted loudly again: "Even if I escape to the ends of the earth, I will not give up!"
