Chapter 252
In any dynasty, there is a strict handover system for officials when they take office or leave office, and the Ming Dynasty is of course no exception.

But this necessary procedure is now in Liaodong, but it is intentionally omitted, because it is clearly written in the transfer order of the Ministry of Officials, there is no need to wait for someone to take over, and you can report to the new post by yourself with the transfer order from the Ministry of Officials.

Yuan Yingtai's temporary residence, study.

Yuan Yingtai didn't hide it from Ye Xun, and there was no need to hide it. Someone would report this matter to Ye Xun without going to Shenyang, and now it's up to Ye Xun how to accept the move.

After hearing Yuan Yingtai's words, Ye Xun was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "When is Master Yuan going to leave?"

Yuan Yingtai sighed. To be honest, he disapproved of the decision of the imperial court and transferred all the officials from Liaodong. What was he doing?Abandon Liaodong?
Although Ye Xun is also a minister of the Ming Dynasty, the court's move is undoubtedly forcing Ye Xun to go further and further on the road of self-reliance.

The soldiers and civilians of Liaodong, who had experienced Jurchen's persecution, were already full of resentment towards the court, but they were grateful to Ye Xun. Now that the court suddenly came to such a move, it was tantamount to completely pushing the soldiers and civilians of Liaodong to Ye Xun's side.

If the land was taken away by the Jurchen, it can be said that the war is unfavorable, but if the land is handed over to an outsider who does not have the surname Zhu, to put it bluntly, this is giving up the foundation of the ancestors. Zhu Youxiao died After that, how could he have the face to meet Zhu's ancestors?

"The order from the imperial court is very urgent. I will set off in two days, but you don't need to worry too much about Ye Gonggong. I will definitely report to His Majesty, so that His Majesty will accept his order. Moreover, I also believe that those people of insight in the court will never won’t sit idly by.”

Ye Xun believed what Yuan Yingtai said. Zhu Youxiao's enthronement time is too short to talk about completely controlling the court. If Ye Xun's guess is correct, this matter must have been secretly carried out by those Donglin party members and Zhu Youxiao Yes, otherwise those trolls in the court would have sprayed Zhu Youxiao and the others bloody.

Now it is a normal transfer of officials. If there is no intention to investigate, no one will know that all the officials in Liaodong have been transferred.

This move was sinister enough, and it really hit Ye Xun's vitals, but Ye Xun didn't intend to keep people, saying that twisted melons are not sweet, let alone people, it's better to let them make trouble than to keep them in trouble. Get out early.

Smiling and waving his hands, he said, "It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. Some things can't be forced. Don't just put yourself in if you don't solve any problems at that time. That's fine, I'll save trouble."

"Actually, I really don't want Lord Yuan to leave. If Lord Yuan doesn't want to stay in the capital one day, the door of Liaodong will be opened to Lord Yuan at any time."

Yuan Yingtai can be said to be very emotional at this moment. He has not worked with Ye Xun for a long time, but he admires Ye Xun's mind and ability from the bottom of his heart. If possible, he really does not want to leave Liaodong. It is hard to disobey, he can only choose to obey against his will.

Ye Xun did not eat at Yuan Yingtai's mansion, but went directly to Liaoyang camp. No matter under any circumstances, controlling the army is the top priority.

There are still 5000 troops in the Liaoyang camp, and the officers are all promoted by Ye Xun. There is absolutely no problem with loyalty.

On the way, Ye Xun told Cheng Yu what happened, and then both of them thought of a serious problem at the same time, that is the army.

The army in Liaodong did support Ye Xun, but after all, most of the generals were appointed by the previous court. It is no problem for these people to leave, but if they want to take the army with them, it is absolutely impossible.

After discussing with Cheng Yu, Ye Xun issued several orders to the generals stationed in various places, with one meaning, that is, whoever wants to leave can leave, but he must not take any soldiers with him, otherwise he will be Ye Xun's enemy.

It is definitely not enough to do these things alone. At the same time, some rumors must be spread among the armies. For example, the imperial court intends to abandon Liaodong, but Ye Gonggong insists on protecting the soldiers and civilians of Liaodong. Liaodong army, and all military dependents are also moved away and so on.

It is hard to leave the homeland. When Ye Xun was here, each family had a lot of land, and because of Ye Xun's existence, the lives of the people in Liaodong have become more and more stable. Under such circumstances, who would want to leave their hometown? Living in a strange place?
The scary thing about this rumor is that it will lose its shape as the number of people who know it increases, and it will become more and more evil.

After doing this, Ye Xun and Cheng Yu's eyes were fixed on one place at the same time, which was Guangning.

Any army entering or leaving Liaodong, in addition to Shanhaiguan, the only way to pass, Guangning must also pass through, so Ye Xun must firmly control this place.

Li Guangrong, the commander-in-chief of Guangning, was also appointed by the imperial court, and when Ye Xun passed by him when he came back from the grassland, he asked Ye Xun if he would be Wang Zhen. It should be said that this person is still loyal to the imperial court.

If that was the case, the defender of this place would have to be replaced by Ye Xun's direct lineage. Not only that, but in the process of changing generals, a bloody conflict might be inevitable.

Time was running out, so Ye Xun immediately ordered Cao Bianjiao and Zhang Qi to gather troops, and he wanted to take down Li Guangrong himself.

The men and horses were assembled, and before they left the camp, a team of men and horses came outside the camp. This team had only a few hundred people, and the leader was Li Guangrong.

Hearing that it was Li Guangrong who came, Cheng Yu couldn't help laughing and said, "Elder-in-law is worrying too much."

Ye Xun nodded and said, "I hope so"

After finishing speaking, he went straight to the outside of the tent. Li Guangrong's coming here in person should have shown his attitude, so Ye Xun wanted to greet him in person, and this was Ye Xun's attitude.

Seeing Ye Xun coming out from a distance, Li Guangrong quickly threw the stool off his horse, then knelt down on one knee and gave Ye Xun a standard military salute.

Ye Xun rushed forward, pulled Li Guangrong up with his own hands, and said with a smile, "Could Zongbing Li be able to pinch and count, knowing that I'm going to find the general?"

Li Guangrong smiled wryly and said: "The general is afraid that when Eunuch Ye goes, he will not be able to explain clearly."

Li Guangrong also received a transfer order from the Ministry of War. It is also a wealthy place in the south. Li Guangrong is a veteran soldier. How can he not see the tricks in it?The court's move was obviously aimed at Ye Xun.

If I were an ordinary person, I am afraid that I would go to the post happily, but Li Guangrong did not, because he is from Liaodong, there are his fathers and villagers here, and he has deep feelings for this land, so he does not want to go to any rich place. .

On the other hand, Li Guangrong is also an aspiring general. The value of a general is reflected on the battlefield, rather than going to the south to be pampered, so he resolutely tore up the imperial order and brought his own soldiers to Ye Xun to express his heart.

Following Ye Xun to the big tent of the Chinese army, before Ye Xun could speak, Li Guangrong took out the letter with the soldier seal from his arms and handed it over.

"Father-in-law, the last general requests to go to Kuandian to obey General Cao's command, please grant your father-in-law's permission."

Guangning has [-] troops stationed because it wants to guard against Mongolia. With this soldier talisman, the Guangning garrison can be mobilized. Li Guangrong obviously wants to hand over power by doing this.
