Chapter 408 The generals are dissatisfied
He Tengjiao was indeed good at judging the superior intentions. He could see that once the anti-Qing war was victorious, the contradictions between the world would become, the contradictions between the emperor's autocracy and the local vassal states.
He Tengjiao is the supervisor, who controls the commander seal and tiger talisman, and the 200,000 troops must obey his orders.
He Tengjiao made up his mind to see the Qing army and the Zhejiang faction fight. Du Yinxi was very sad and angry, but he had no choice but to do anything to him.
After Du Yinxi left the military tent, He Wenrui was a little worried: "Father, Du Yinxi is quite familiar with military affairs, and his concerns may not be unreasonable. If his father does not send troops, if the Zhejiang Army is defeated by the Qing army, the court will be unable to support it!"
He Tengjiao looked quite unhappy, "What do you know? It's not that you don't send troops to your father, but the time is not yet ripe. In recent years, the Zhejiang Army's army has become too popular and its prestige has vaguely surpassed the court. If the lord is strong, it is not a blessing for the country. If the father is just using the hand of Jiannu, he will weaken the Zhejiang Army. When it's time to take action, the father will naturally take action."
"Father, what's the time to wait?" He Wenrui asked with a frown.
"I just said that Zhao Bo'an is very capable of fighting, and the Zhejiang-Governors are all arrogant soldiers. This time, we must wait until the Zhejiang-Governors and Jiannu are both defeated. When the Zhejiang-Governors are unable to collect Nanjing, it will be the day to send troops to their father." He Tengjiao said in a deep voice: "You don't understand my painstaking efforts. For your father, this is for His Majesty, and he is also helping Zhao Bo'an. He should thank me. If he has been so strong and the Zhejiang-Governors recovered Nanjing, he will definitely not have a good end in the future, but another Huaiyin Marquis."
If the Zhejiang regime recovers Nanjing, the power of the vassal states will be further expanded and threatens the Longwu court. In the future, the imperial court will definitely be a bloody storm.
He Tengjiao thought that with the help of the Battle of Jiangnan, he could weaken the Zhejiang clique and exhaust the Qing army, which was a god-given opportunity.
If the Zhejiang Group suffered a great loss this time and was unable to advance to Nanjing, the imperial court would support the Qing army to take Wuchang and go to Jinling again when it suffered heavy losses.
In this way, the court can not only defeat the Qing army, but also reshape the majesty of the court and avoid the separatist situation of vassal states. The most important thing is that Emperor Longwu said that the two capitals would be restored to the king first, and He Tengjiao would become the only living king of the Ming Dynasty court.
After hearing this, He Wenrui understood He Tengjiao's painstaking efforts and hurriedly saluted: "My father is far-sighted and admires me."
He Tengjiao waved his hand, "If you don't talk about this, let's talk about the important matters."
He Wenrui hurriedly bowed and acted respectfully.
He Tengjiao said: "You have been in the court for a while. For your father, you decided to let you go out, practice for one or two years, earn some political achievements, and then transfer you back to the court. In this way, if you have the qualifications and operate you into the cabinet, you will be convinced."
He Wenrui bowed and said, "It's all arranged by my father!"
He Tengjiao nodded with satisfaction and said, "There are two places now. One is to serve as governor of southern Gannan, and the other is to serve as governor of eastern Sichuan. Southern Gannan is a place controlled by the court, with the King of Tang and Wan Ji. After you go, you don't need to do anything. You can come back for two years. Eastern Sichuan is now controlled by the Western thieves. Although the Western thieves are nominally sanctioned to the court, they are actually like an independent kingdom. If you go here, you need to be very careful. Where are you willing to go to these two places?"
He Wenrui thought about it, then clasped his fists and said solemnly: "Father, my son is willing to go to eastern Sichuan to create a foundation for the court."
He Tengjiao looked solemn when he heard the words, took a deep breath, was silent for a while, and sighed, "I am worthy of being my son!"
Although He Tengjiao hoped that He Wenrui would go to southern Gansu and would be transferred back to the court after two years of being transferred, as an old man who had been through official struggles for a long time, He Tengjiao knew in his heart that if He Wenrui did not let He Wenrui experience it, He Wenrui would definitely find it difficult to become a talent and would definitely not be able to survive in the officialdom in the future.
In the next few days, the 200,000 army remained unmoved, and the soldiers were conserving the pain of heat. He Tengjiao devoted his energy to He Wenrui's work as a governor in eastern Sichuan.
The situation in the east of Sichuan was quite complicated, including the Qing army, the Western army, and the chieftain armed forces of the Ming Dynasty.
It is not impossible to do well in this place, be able to make achievements or not, and die, but He Tengjiao naturally does not, so he really let He Wenrui take risks.
Therefore, He Tengjiao first sent his confidant to east Sichuan to pave the way for He Wenrui, and then dispatched soldiers to prepare to give He Wenrui a team of elite soldiers to escort him to east Sichuan to take office.
While He Tengjiao was busy with his son's work, Haoge, who had been waiting for He Tengjiao in Yuezhou for many days, was a little impatient.
The 200,000 Ming army in Huguang were in a state of great momentum, which made Haoge cheer up and prepare to fight the battle. As a result, he waited for a long time but didn't see the Ming army. If someone else didn't come to attack me, it would be just right. However, Haoge was the son of Huang Taiji. Although he was a little indecisive in the event of trouble, he was relatively strong in fighting.
If the Ming army did not come, Haoge ordered the Qing cavalry to go south to investigate, and at the same time, he kept mobilizing troops and preparing to go south to find the Ming army to fight.
Qing army scouts appeared on the north bank of Miluo River, and more and more, began to make Ming army soldiers feel uneasy.
The weather was hot, and the army was exposed to the sun every day, and there were many mosquitoes, which made the soldiers miserable. However, He Tengjiao drank with his staff every day and dispatched 5,000 elite soldiers to escort He Wenrui to eastern Sichuan, which made the generals in the army dissatisfied with He Tengjiao.
The Qing army scouts were peeking at each other, which made the general uneasy. They remembered the previous few times that He Tengjiao's army was defeated by the Qing army.
Although He Tengjiao used the emperor's trust in him and his many followers to hide his defeat, the generals who participated in the war and suffered defeat with He Tengjiao were still scared and nervous.
In Du Yinxi's tent, a group of generals gathered together, with resentment on their faces.
Chen Mingyu felt gloomy and said in a deep voice: "The Zhejiang army has several rescued Huguang. Now that we are in trouble, we should have worked together to attack the enemy, but He Zhishi cannot stay for a long time. Now the army does not move, but the enemy soldiers are gathering. If this continues, we may be defeated!"
Li Guo also said: "Last year, the food was not collected. Nowadays, the people are poor and the military food is scarce. The soldiers can only eat bran and vegetables. The supervisor did not take advantage of the fact that there was still food in the army and led the troops north to eat Hubei. He attacked the enemy with all his strength, but sat on the wall to watch, which was really chilling."
Yan Yingyuan raised his head and looked at Du Yinxi with a serious expression: "The army of Fu, the army of the army, wants to send troops again when Jiannu is exhausted. However, I think that with the strength of Jiannu, the army of the army in a corner of the Zhejiang army, if the court does not cooperate, the Zhejiang army will be defeated by Jiannu. If the Zhejiang army is defeated, the morale of Jiannu will be boosted and will only be stronger. What kind of bad will the army of the army have to bear? Moreover, it is now the opportunity for the country to make contributions. The revival of the Ming Dynasty is here, and the army of the army does not care about the soldiers and is used to help the private sector. I think that the army of the army is not a minister of the country. If it continues to lead the army, it may cause a great disaster. Please ask the army of Fu to take on the great responsibility!"
Yan Yingyuan's words resonated with the generals. Li Guo, Hao Yaoqi and other generals stood up and clasped their fists, "Please take responsibility for the Fujun!"
