Chapter 647 The Chess Game of the War of Thousand Miles
Yang Reform won Sun Chengzong's four-character evaluation of the two, and he couldn't make up his mind. He was worried about this matter for several days. A decision now may have a great impact on his overall layout, especially Northern layout.

Yang Reform did not quite understand Sun Chengzong's words at the time.After thinking about it carefully for a few days, I finally figured it out.

Regarding Lu Xiangsheng's evaluation, sincerity is easy to understand, Yang Reform is also very relieved, a person can get other people's evaluation of sincerity, which is enough to show the person's character, and there are "historical achievements" to testify, Yang Reform is very good to Lu Xiangsheng Relieved.

Yang Reform is worried about Hong Chengchou, his own history is not good, and he got a calm evaluation, think about it, and only a calm person, no matter what happens, will calmly think about the problem, only a calm person will Calm down to assess the situation, presumably in history when Hong Chengchou rebelled against the Ming, he must have been unusually "calm" and did not touch his neck or go on a hunger strike.

It's not that Yang Reform doesn't know Hong Chengchou's history, but after learning about his past, he is even more impressed with this person's ability. He is a traitor, a founding minister, and he can die well. This person must have the ability.

There is no doubt that Yang Reform wants to use Hong Chengchou's ability, and he also believes that he has the ability to control Hong Chengchou, but the grudge in his heart always exists.

Yang Reform was troubled for several days, but decided to put the importance of these two people on the agenda. The situation in the north has gradually become clear, and it is time to play chess pieces. Embarrassed, he had to gradually immerse in the west, while Lin Danhan struggled to resist the invasion of the eastern captives, but it was destined to be a tragedy, with constant losses of soldiers and generals, and loss of population territory.The Imperial Association Army outside the Great Wall also has a certain combat power, because it can benefit from its special status, and the chain of this benefit has gradually become clear. Whether it is fighting because of the pressure of the Ming Dynasty or fighting for its own interests Well, in short, the friction with the Mongolian right-wing tribes is getting bigger and bigger. If this continues, the friction will escalate sooner or later, and there must be a battle with the Mongolian right-wing.

All these signs have shown more and more that the decisive battle is coming.For the Ming Dynasty, it is necessary to make a comprehensive consideration from Liaodong Korea to Gansu, and even Qinghai, and even involve Xinjiang and Tibet. Once a decisive battle is to be fought, it must be launched on a long front. Solve several enemies outside the pass.Such as Donglu, Lin Danhan, and Mongolian right-wing tribes.To conduct a decisive battle on such a long front, it is bound to require that the Ming Dynasty can cooperate well and coordinate well on this tens of thousands of miles of front.

Undoubtedly, this thousands-of-mile battle requires several people who can cooperate closely to preside over the battle. Without close cooperation, one cannot understand the meaning of this decisive battle and cannot trust one's "teammates". Impossible.

Except for Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan, Yang Reform allocated personnel for this battle of thousands of miles. Almost all the others were military generals. According to the rules of the civil servants leading the army in the Ming Dynasty, at least a few more civil servants had to be brought in to the team. Otherwise, Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan They have all reached the central government. In this place, there is no reliable civil servant to lead the army. The reliable civil servant is not only about whether the character is reliable, but mainly about whether the military ability is reliable.

Ordinary civil servants have no problem with their character. Even if they lose the war, they generally would not consider joining Houjin. Only Hong Chengchou, who has military talent and is reliable in military affairs, would do this. Yang Reform looked depressed.

However, at this time, Yang Reform also thought about it. He is not the Chongzhen in history. With his own ability, it should be no problem to control Hong Chengchou. With Hong Chengchou's ability and his knowledge, he should naturally know his own energy. However, even if he intends to rebel, he still has to weigh his weight and the power of the emperor himself.

After thinking through all this, Yang Reform decided to treat these two civil servants as "teammates". Let them know what they should know. With their abilities, they should be able to complete the plan well.

Just like what Sun Chengzong said, a person who is sincere must cooperate closely with other people is no problem; a person who is calm, after looking at his own means, if he is still not "calm", then the evaluation of his calmness given by Sun Chengzong is in vain .

"Big companion, deliver the decree! Call Shaanxi Counselor Hong Chengchou and Daming Prefecture Prefect Lu Xiangsheng to meet me on the platform. In addition, please also invite Master Sun to be present." Yang Reform figured it out and decided that now this game of thousands of miles of chess should be played early. No matter how late it is, it will delay things.

"Slave obeys the decree!" Wang Chengen waited on the emperor, seeing that the emperor frowned for a long time, and was still worried about what happened. Seeing that the emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief, he was also relieved, and went to deliver the decree instead.

……

Yang Reform has reached the platform early.

When it comes to the platform, Yang reforms the opening sentence.

"Master Sun, I have decided to use these two people. What does Master Sun think? Are they capable?" Yang Reform has already made up his mind to use them, and now he is here to ask Sun Chengzong. Actually, he also wants to ask for peace of mind.The grudge in Yang Reform's heart is always lingering. After all, this decisive battle involves too many things. Yang Reform must care about winning or losing this war.

"Since your Majesty has already decided to use them, you must have thought it over clearly. The minister still has the ability to look at these two people. It is really rare for His Majesty to pick these two people out of this vast crowd. Although it is a bit hasty to take over the military now, But if you want to run in for a while, it shouldn't be a problem. One is sincere, and he will do his best to complete what His Majesty ordered, and he will not think half of himself. It is not difficult to win the approval of the soldiers; It can be regarded as half of the imperial party, if you think about what His Majesty ordered, if you think about his wisdom, he will definitely follow His Majesty's order, and it shouldn't spoil His Majesty's business." Sun Chengzong said, the emperor has always been in the battle of thousands of miles outside the pass. With him planning, Sun Chengzong is also the main participant, the framer, he naturally knows these things, and he naturally understands the meaning of the emperor's words.

"Oh, Master Sun can say that, so I feel more at ease." Yang Reform really wanted to seek peace of mind, since he had already made up his mind to recruit these two "teammates", it would be superfluous to say this.

"...Then Master Sun, where is the best position for these two people?" Yang Reform asked again. Outsiders sounded like no brains, but after hearing this, Sun Chengzong knew what the emperor said. what does it mean.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Your Majesty wants to transfer Yuan Ziru to the capital, and the position of governor of Liaodong must be vacated. According to the ranks of these two people, one is a counselor from the third rank, and the other is a magistrate from the fourth rank. It stands to reason that they should be from the It is more appropriate to be promoted to the third rank..." Sun Chengzong said, the meaning of the emperor, and only those who can understand what it means, these two people are the civil servants selected by the emperor to prepare for the future war, and the civil servants lead the army, naturally the governor Among them, the key governor of Liaodong is naturally one of the two. The official rank of the two, one is from the third rank, and the other is the fourth rank. If two people are treated equally, they will naturally be from the third rank. It is the governor of another place on the front line of thousands of miles. Although they are all governors, it is obvious that the status of Liaodong governors is higher now, and there are also high and low governors.

"Hmm..." Yang Reform said nothing. Logically speaking, it should be what Sun Chengzong said. This Hong Chengchou is like Lin Danhan. If he meets Hou Jin, it will be a tragedy.

"Then what about the other person? Where should he go?" Yang Reform thought for a while and asked again. This is also where Yang Reform hesitated, or in other words, where he had a dispute with Sun Chengzong.According to Yang Reform's thinking, for future expansion, one of them should be arranged to be a governor in a certain place in Shaanxi, preferably Gansu or Ningxia. Khan or Houjin rushed there, just in time to chase after Houjin to expand westward, and also cover the bottom of the Mongolian right wing. If Lin Dan Khan was chased by Houjin, according to history, he happened to be in Gansu, The place in Qinghai happened to be able to get his seal back, and it would be good to give Lu Xiangsheng the credit for this.But what Sun Chengzong considered was to put people in Datong, where he would serve as a governor, support the middle road, and deal with those disobedient Mongolian tribes.

On this issue, Yang Reform did not reach an agreement with Sun Chengzong, but now, Yang Reform thinks that maybe he should listen to Sun Chengzong, and solve the middle road first, and then he can only let go of Jin and the seal after the pursuit Well, whoever gets that seal is the one who gets it. On the front of thousands of miles, they are all their own men and horses. As the saying goes, the palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are all meat, and they are all given to anyone.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I still feel that we should go to Datong..." Sun Chengzong insisted on his opinion.

"Datong? Forget it, now that the magistrate has become the governor, it seems to be justifiable, just not too leapfrogged..." Yang Reform finally accepted Sun Chengzong's advice. actual.There are also large and small governors. The large governors can manage a province or even several important places, while the small ones can also manage a prefecture. There are also differences in job requirements.

"Your Majesty is holy!" Sun Chengzong said, seeing that he finally convinced the emperor, he was relieved. On this issue, Sun Chengzong didn't understand why the emperor was so persistent and paranoid. The emperor either hesitated or insisted on his own opinion. The emperor always hesitated and could not accept his advice, which made Sun Chengzong very worried. Now that the emperor finally agreed to his advice, he was relieved.Of course, Sun Chengzong didn't know that the emperor was thinking about Lin Danhan's death in that place according to history, and he was determined to get his seal.
