Chapter 34 Xiong Tingbi

Xu Guangqi stood up and said yes.

Zhu Youxiao took Guo Hu who was ordered to enter Beijing from Wei Zhongxian, and Qin Liangyu and his group looked at the list.

Looking at the names of these people, Zhu Youzhai felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

As far as Zhu Youxiao knows, many of these people will die in battle in the future because of fighting against the Donglu.

Among them, Qin Liangyu's family is the most sad.

Almost all the people of the tribe have given their lives for the Ming Dynasty.

It can be said that there are all loyal and martyrs in the family.

Chen Ce also made great sacrifices in the cause of the Qing Dynasty.

In history, Chen Ce went to Liaodong to kill the enemy in the first year of Tianqi, and successively killed powerful generals such as Jialaerzhenbuha, Shiertai, and Niuluezhenlangge.

However, later Chen Ce and his family were surrounded by 50,000 cavalry and suffered heavy losses. He was injured more than ten times and died heroically.

Therefore, when Zhu Youxiao saw these names, he felt heavy in his heart.

Zhu Youxiao hopes that through his own efforts, these people can no longer write the tragic song of the Ming Dynasty's demise at the hands of foreign races with their passion.

Even if you want to shed blood, you should use your passion to forge the monument of the great cause of the Ming Dynasty to unite the world and unify the world.

For a moment, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help looking outside the hall.

At this time, the Forbidden City was shrouded in fine snow from early October. Outside the silent red wall, no one knew when the jackal outside the pass would open his fangs again.

But Zhu Youxiao knew that as the prosperous and exquisite lord of the Ming Dynasty in this glazed world, he needed to let this empire that had been peaceful for more than two hundred years to complete his transformation in the best way, rather than letting him die in the hands of the wild boar skin and sink into a tragedy of civilization.

"In this life, I want you to be granted the title of marquis and split the land, and I want you to open up your territory for me to the world!"

Zhu Youxiao said something secretly.

...

"The snow in winter has begun to fall, and the days of wild boar skins are probably getting harder. It is best to freeze all of them to death! In this way, I will lead the troops to recover the lost land for the court!"

Xiong Tingbi was wearing a red robe, squinted his eyes and looked at the snow outside Shenyang City, and started talking.

At this time, Xiong Tingbi had just repelled Nurhaci's 60,000 troops in June of the 48th year of Wanli, and then repelled Nurhaci's 20,000 troops in Puhe, an outer stronghold in Shenyang in August, which forced the Later Jin army, which had always wanted to break the dilemma, to remain trapped in the middle of the tide, and could not get money and grain to replenish.

Xiong Tingbi was also very energetic and realized that the Liao territory would be stable in the future, and the opportunity to regain lost territory, trap Jiannu in a narrower space and then solve the problem of the Eastern Captain was not far away.

After all, he had restored the Liaodong Ming army's strength to 160,000 through the method of general training, and built cities everywhere, which kept the Later Jin army trapped in the wilderness.

Therefore, in Xiong Tingbi's view, when this winter passes, Nurhaci's strength will be greatly reduced due to hunger and cold, and will give him the opportunity to defeat the Donglu and recover the lost territory.

But when Xiong Tingbi thought of the disputes in the court, he couldn't help but frown.

He already knew about Feng Sanyuan's impeachment of himself.

Moreover, Xiong Tingbi had learned from Wei Yingjia that the censor Zhang Xiude was also going to impeach him.

With the previous impeachment of Yao Zongzhong, Liu Guojin and other Beijing officials, Xiong Tingbi could sense that the court had more and more dissatisfied with him.

Therefore, Xiong Tingbi didn't know whether he could still get the chance to defeat the Donglu at least once.

In fact, Xiong Tingbi was not very confident.

Because Xiong Tingbi knew that many people in the court did not want him to solve the problem of the Donglu as soon as possible.

"Ministry, our people wrote to us that many censors in the court were preparing to continue to submit memorials to impeach us, saying that we should send money to resolve these matters as soon as possible, and send it to Wei Yingjia, the official department clerk who contacted us, and ask him to help us with some help!"

Xiong Tingbi's aide Liu Huainan came and talked to Xiong Tingbi.

Xiong Tingbi was very upset after hearing this and said in a loud voice: "I want money again! There is so much money in the main hall to put them in their mouths! Sooner or later, the affairs of Liaodong will be broken in the hands of these censors! Not the fault of the civil and military officials in my border town!"

"Don't calm down, for the sake of the overall situation, you should bear it."

Liu Huainan persuaded him.

Xiong Tingbi sighed: "Well! You can handle everything. There are so many affairs in Liaodong waiting for me to deal with. I am still too busy to be busy. How can I have time to take care of these matters? However, the court has just changed the emperor, and the foundation is not stable and people are not at ease. These censors will inevitably take this opportunity to make trouble. I cannot be idle. I also submit a memorial to explain this matter to the emperor. To clarify his thoughts, you can ask them to take my memorial back at that time!"

"Late life receives the order!"

Liu Huainan's sentence.

...

Zhu Youxiao also received Xiong Tingbi's confession from the cabinet ministers on the day he learned that veterans such as Guo Hu, Chen Ce, Qin Liangyu came to Beijing.

"...The Liao land has now turned into danger, but my ministers are going from life to death. If the court really thinks that my ministers are timid people, I am willing to hand over the Sword of Shangfang and be dismissed by Your Majesty!"

After reading Xiong Tingbi's memorial, Zhu Youxiao asked, "Do you all the beloved ministers don't know how to vote on this matter?"

This time, Liu Yifeng took the initiative to stand up and said first: "Your Majesty, the court officials are very dissatisfied with Xiong Tingbi's actions of not losing territory in Liaodong and just building cities and training troops. The censor Zhang Xiude also submitted a memorial to impeach him to destroy Liaoyang, not accept refugees, and blindly drive away refugees. Therefore, the ministers and others dare not make a mistake. In the opinion of the minister, Liao affairs should not be underestimated. A general is incompetent and exhausted the three armies. Is Xiong Tingbi's incompetence? Should the strategy be changed? Should he plan to everyone, and he will discuss and decide! This must be fair."

After Liu Yiyin finished speaking, he looked up at Zhu Youxiao. He just wanted to let Xiong Tingbi step down and complete the mission assigned to him by the Liaodi Military Town and other forces. Therefore, he now had to reveal that he wanted to replace Xiong Tingbi and test the emperor's attitude.

Zhu Youxiao nodded his head and did not make a clear statement, but he sneered in his heart: "I didn't expect that you, Liu Yiying, also meant to replace Xiong Tingbi!"

Fang Congzhe stood up at this time and said, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, Xiong Tingbi has not made any major mistakes since he took office as the Minister of Management, and there is no defeat. It is not appropriate to change it suddenly. If Xiong Tingbi really failed, it will really make the Liao incident worse. He should change it. However, Xiong Tingbi still still has Liaoyang and Shenyang, and even repels Jiannu twice in a row. Therefore, I believe that it is not necessary to change the Minister of Management now, let alone convene a court discussion and discuss the appropriate candidates for the Minister of Management."
