Chapter 164 Liaodong Private Army?

Opposing the construction of a city is just an excuse, and replacing talents is the goal.

Wang Qia went out and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

"Tell me."

"Someone reported that the generals in Liaodong deducted military salaries and privately raised soldiers."

Wang Qia took out a report letter, and Wang Chengen presented the things in his hand to the emperor.

Chongzhen opened it and took a look at the memorial of Chen Xinjia, the former military officer of Ning, Liaodong.

Where is Ningqian, Liaodong?

Jinzhou, Songshan, Xingshan, Youtun and Da and Xiaolinghe areas.

This area is the area after the Liaoxi Corridor has been released.

And what is the military chief?

Officials of the Censorate are responsible for supervising local troops, such as soldiers, horses, money and grain, farming, and maintaining local public order.

It is somewhat similar to the later military district discipline inspection and supervision bureau, but it also holds some responsibilities of the Military Control Commission.

During the Apocalypse period, Yuan Chonghuan was in this position.

At that time, he was Ning Qian's army prepared for the Tao, and Wei Zhongxian was in power.

Wei Zhongxian was already in power at that time and was most afraid of two people, one was Sun Chengzong and the other was Yuan Keli.

One of these two people is in charge of military and political affairs in Liaodong, and the other is in charge of military and political affairs in Denglai, Shandong, and they are both imperial teachers.

In order to solve these two people, Wei Zhongxian recalled Sun Chengzong and let Gao Di go.

As a result, when Gao first came up, he said he wanted to throw away the door and retreat across the board.

At that time, Yuan Chonghuan shouted, "I am Ningqian Dao. The official should die here and he will not go." This means that I am Ningqian Dao. When the official reaches this level, he will die and will never return to the pass.

This is why I am alone guarding Ningyuan City.

Now Yuan Chonghuan is the commander of the army, so naturally the military preparations will be replaced.

In the early years of Chongzhen, Chen Xinjia prepared the road for Ningqian troops.

Chen Xinjia is also a person who does things.

Did the memorial he wrote wrongly accuse some generals from Liaodong?

Not!

There are many factions in Liaodong, and no general is good at it.

It is said that in history, there were 3,000 subordinates in the Zu family, and the Wu family also privately raised 2,000 people.

The salary of Guanning Army is 1 tael and 4 cents per month (1.4 taels). The Zu family can take 8 cents or even 1 tael, and the rest is given to the grassroots soldiers.

Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui and his son also operate the same thing.

This is a typical beginning of warlordization.

After Yuan Chonghuan's death, basically no one could suppress it, and warlordization became increasingly serious.

Does Zhang Chen know about this?

Of course he knows!

He was a time traveler, the warlordization of the Liaodong army and the warlordization of the Dongjiang Town were all recognized in the late Ming Dynasty.

Chongzhen put it away and said, "I understand. It's a big deal at this time. Let me think about it carefully."

Wang Qia said: "Yes!"

Everyone stopped talking.

Obviously, this one can cause a lot of shock.

Since the Song Dynasty, the power to recruit soldiers, transfer military power, and command military power to divide the power to command military power, the most feared thing about the central court is that military generals support their families in the local area, which is regarded as a rebellion.

The disaster of martial artists in the Tang Dynasty left scars that could not be healed for thousands of years on China.

"Do you have anything else?"

“Nothing happens.”

Originally, everyone was thinking about the development of the Liaodong incident, but Wei Zhongyun had been retorted by the emperor, and no one else dared to mention it again.

"Then the discussion will end today."

"I'm going to leave."

After the ministers left, Chongzhen looked at Chen Xinjia's report letter.

Chen Xinjia is such a naughty man!

Such a thing, poking it at this critical moment, not only does not have any benefits, but will make the situation worse.

Sometimes, there are some things that need to be integrated in the middle when there is not enough resources in your hands.

For example, Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang support their families alone, and Chongzhen could not thoroughly investigate this matter.

Because there will be a great war in Liaodong this year.

Zu Dashou, at least he is still loyal to the court, and is still willing to snipe Jiannu.

Moreover, Yuan Chonghuan has always checked and balanced these Liaodong heroes, which can at least delay their warlordization.

Isn’t it a way to move them at this time to shake the morale of the army?

To move, it is to wait until the Central Army becomes stronger and the Liaodong military is stable, and then move in the name of implementing new military and political affairs.

There is no perfect boss, and there is no perfect subordinate.

Similarly, there is no perfect situation.

Cards are played one by one.

I have to transfer Chen Xinjia back, otherwise it would be bad if this matter is going to be a big deal.

In the afternoon of the same day, Chongzhen issued an imperial edict, allowing people to speed up their trip to Liaodong and recall Chen Xinjia.

Yuan Chonghuan was having a headache about Chen Xinjia.

Of course he knew the troubles of the people below, but many things cannot be easily taken to the table under specific circumstances.

The important task now is to build a city, rather than to carry out military reform.

Liaodong is a very special place. The situation has been turbulent over the past decade, and the Ming Dynasty has been defeated one after another.

The Liao people also paid a heavy price, and the imperial army was defeated here.

They witnessed the separation of their wives and children, and witnessed the hell on earth.

Their feelings are unimaginable to people in the Guan area.

For example, if you see your daily neighbors, even brothers and sisters, killed in front of you, and your call is not effective, how do you feel?

despair!

That's right, it's despair.

Despair of this world.

The Liao people have been in this state for more than ten years. In the era of Nurhaci's massacre, blood flowed into a river at every turn.

What can Liaodong have?

Of course, it is the most reliable person for you!

This is human nature, human nature that is not diverted by the will of the court.

Similarly, Mao Wenlong was in a chaos in Liaodong and experienced so much turmoil. He also understood this and began to become a warlord.

The implication is that others are not reliable, and you must take the gun into your own hands and save yourself is the right way.

Therefore, Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang, Mao Wenlong and other military generals all wanted to raise private soldiers.

This is also reflected in Zhang Chen: there are always unruly people who want to harm me. I want to form my own army, and no one else can trust me!

In troubled times, trust itself is the most valuable.

Yuan Chonghuan was different. He was from the court, and his position as Minister of War and his salary were all given by the court.

For the Liaodong Army, he will always be an outsider. After his term of office expires, he will return to Beijing.

For him, the Liaodong Army was just a helper to complete the task itself.

The butt determines the head.

His mission is to recover Liaodong and manage the Liaodong Army well.

If you have different positions, find the intermediate balance point.

Chen Xinjia's letter of reporting is obviously to break the intermediate balance point.

This matter must be handled coldly.

After someone asked someone to recall Chen Xinjia, Chongzhen did another very important thing.

What's up?

Find a way to kill Sanshun King to avoid any trouble during the Battle of Dalinghe this year.

Where is Sanshun King now?

In Denlai!

In orthodox history, the governor of Denglai this year was Sun Yuanhua.
