Ming politicians

When Tang Haitai came to visit, Hong Chengchou was still paying attention.He didn't know the entanglement between Tang Haitai and Su Tiancheng, but he knew that Tang Haitai's identity was very special.

Although Tang Haitai is only the governor of the governor's yamen, he is deeply trusted by Chen Xinjia, and he is also the nephew of Tang Shiji, the second assistant of the cabinet. No one will underestimate the aura behind him.Tang Haitai was in charge of uploading and delivering, and was also responsible for a lot of supervision and implementation work. In many cases, Tang Haitai's attitude probably represented Chen Xinjia's attitude.Liaodong officers basically understand this.

Hong Chengchou's impression of Tang Haitai was mediocre. He felt that Tang Haitai had nothing special about him, and he also had some dandyism about him. He believed that Tang Haitai didn't have much ability, and that he could rely on Tang Shiji to reach his current status.From this point of view, Tang Shiji probably loves Tang Haitai very much.

"Lord Hong, following the order of the governor, I am here to inform you that tomorrow morning, please come to the governor's yamen to discuss matters."

"Understood, does Mr. Tang know, what is the purpose of the discussion tomorrow?" [

Hong Chengchou was a little strange. In the past, Tang Haitai also came to inform him of such meetings, but he usually said what was discussed, but this time he didn't. Subconsciously, Hong Chengchou asked.

"My lord, I don't know very well, I guess it has something to do with the emperor's imperial decree."

Hong Chengchou nodded, feeling a strange feeling in his heart.

Tang Haitai didn't leave immediately, and then spoke again.

"My lord, I admire the bravery of the Jiangning camp. The emperor issued an imperial edict, and I think that this battle must be the time for the Jiangning camp to make great achievements."

Everyone loves to listen to words of praise, they wear it for thousands of times, but they don't wear it for flattery.

Hearing what Tang Haitai said, a smile appeared on Hong Chengchou's face.

"Mr. Tang is over-rewarded. I also hope that Mr. Tang can help to say in front of Mr. Chen and Mr. Qian that after the conquest of the Golden Tartars, the Jiangning camp is waiting for death."

Having said this, Hong Chengchou was also determined. Although Su Tiancheng emphasized it, he believed it.The bravery of the Jiangning camp is to be reflected on the battlefield. If they are huddled in the city and they have made great achievements, they will also laugh at the Jiangning camp, let alone.After such a long time, the Jiangning Camp has been doing nothing, and its influence in Liaodong has gradually weakened. This situation cannot continue.

"Don't worry, my lord, I must have said it in front of the governor. I admire Jiang Ningying's bravery."

After Tang Haitai left.Hong Chengchou was very happy. He knew that tomorrow he would go to the Governor's Yamen to discuss matters. It must be related to the Golden Tartars after the expedition. Although it was only March and it was also the busy season of farming, many things needed to be arranged in advance. It also needs to be deployed, Dalinghe City, Jinzhou, Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan.It still needs to stick to it, in case the Houjin Tatars suddenly attack Guan Ningjin's defense line.

All the officers above the commander of the Jiangning battalion and guards have gone to Dengzhou, and there are few people around Hong Chengchou to discuss with.Under such circumstances, Hong Chengchou had to make decisions on many things alone, and the important task of commanding the [-] soldiers of the Jiangning Camp fell on his shoulders alone.

Hong Chengchou has always believed that after this expedition, the Golden Tatars were able to complete their mission. The total strength of the frontier army, Yulin camp and Jiangning camp stationed in Liaodong reached 18. After the conquest, the Golden Tartars dispatched a hundred thousand troops. The scale is large, and the remaining [-] soldiers will stick to the Guan Ning Jin line of defense, so that both ends can be taken care of. If Hong Chengchou is to command this battle, he will definitely dispatch all [-] Jiang Ning battalion soldiers, all Yulin The soldiers of the battalion, part of the frontier army, were given the task of guarding the Guan Ningjin line of defense. Naturally, they were entrusted to the frontier army, so as to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army to the greatest extent.

After Tang Haitai returned to the governor's office, he naturally reported the situation to Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi.

As for what Hong Chengchou said, he definitely wouldn't say it. In his heart, he didn't mean to speak for Jiang Ning Ying at all. When he thought of Jiang Ning Ying, he thought of Su Tiancheng. , he didn't even dare to come to Liaodong, and if Su Tiancheng hadn't left Liaodong, he didn't even dare to meet Su Tiancheng.

Tang Shiji wished that Su Tiancheng would lose all power. He couldn't think of Jiang Ningying for such a meritorious service, and he wouldn't do it even if he said something nice by the way.

Chen Xinjia was discussing matters with Qian Qianyi, and the two were also preparing for the meeting the next day.

After Tang Haitai reported, he waited for Chen Xinjia's order and did not leave immediately.

"Tang Haitai, tell me about how you met Master Hong." [

Tang Haitai froze for a moment, and immediately thought of something, he thought for a while, and then spoke quickly.

"My lord, I saw Master Hong. Master Hong didn't know what to discuss at the meeting tomorrow. I asked the lower official, but the lower official said he didn't know. My lord didn't give any orders. Master Hong thought that it was very likely that it was the son of the Golden Tartars after the conquest. matter."

"Oh, Master Hong said something else."

"Master Hong also said that the Jiangning camp is brave, and after this conquest, the Golden Tartars will be indispensable."

There was no expression on Chen Xinjia's face. Qian Qianyi couldn't help it, and was about to speak, but Chen Xinjia stopped him with a wink.

Tang Haitai saw this scene very clearly. He was happy for his cleverness. The words he said were not pleasant at all. The meaning of these words, except for the Jiangning battalion, the rest of the sergeants in Liaodong were not allowed. To wipe out the Hou Jin Tartars, one cannot do without the Jiangning Camp, and in a deeper sense, one cannot do without Su Tiancheng, so how could Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi be happy about what position they were placed in.

Back at his office, Tang Haitai hummed a little tune, looking very excited.

"Master Qian, what do you think of this deployment?"

"My lord Chen, I think that if the arrangement is lost, there is no need to make adjustments."

After saying this, Qian Qianyi was obviously a little unconvinced, and then spoke.

"I think this Jiangning battalion is too arrogant. Could it be said that after a victory in Liaodong, everything is inseparable? Not necessarily. Could it be that the frontier army and the Yulin battalion can't fight and fight, if Master Hong is like this Words have spread, and it will have a great impact on the soldiers fighting for it."

Chen Xinjia nodded.

"What Lord Qian said is true. I also thought that there were not many soldiers in the Jiangning battalion stationed in Liaodong. If they want to open up the situation in Liaodong, they must rely on the frontier army. Although there are not many soldiers in the Yulin battalion, most of them are brave and good at fighting. The sergeant can be dispatched this time, as for the arrangement of the Jiangning Battalion, it is still in accordance with the previous deployment and will not be adjusted."

Qian Qianyi nodded.

"I don't know how adults think of Jiang Ning Ying."

"My lord Qian, the bravery of the Jiangning camp is known to the emperor, the adults in the court know it, and you and I understand it too. Otherwise, I wouldn't have won so many victories, but I thought that at one time and another, I came to Liaodong It’s been so long, and I haven’t seen the bravery of the Jiangning Battalion. It’s not because of the daily training and patrols. Besides, the soldiers of the Jiangning Battalion are paid very high. This is also known to everyone. If we didn’t think of a way, I’m afraid Now Liaodong is a little unstable."

"The lower officials also see it this way. Why don't you try to govern the Jiangning Camp? Your Excellency is the governor of Liaodong, and he is responsible for all military and political affairs. Commanding the Jiangning Camp is a matter of course."

Chen Xinjia looked at Qian Qianyi. He and Qian Qianyi cooperated very well. Qian Qianyi was different from some great Confucian scholars. He was very knowledgeable, but he still treated things with a bit of sophistication and sophistication. Knowing why, I have always been a little bit worried about Jiang Ningying, so that I can't make an accurate judgment.

The cooperation between the two was very good, especially Qian Qianyi was able to lower his airs, which was very rare. Great Confucian scholars generally have strong bones, even in front of the emperor, they were unwilling to bow their knees.

Chen Xinjia also decided to tell the truth.

"Your Excellency Qian doesn't know that this Jiangning Camp is very special. It is a title bestowed by the Emperor himself. Besides, Lord Su is still the Supervisor of Ji Liao. When I came to Liaodong, the imperial decree made it very clear. I am assisting Mr. Su to lead the affairs of Liaodong. Mr. Su is far away in Dengzhou, and he has not asked about the affairs of Liaodong. He has given me face, and I can't do too much."

Chen Xinjia's explanation was very clear, but Qian Qianyi was not satisfied. [

"I don't think so. The Jiangning camp is an army of the imperial court, not Su Tiancheng's army alone. If he thinks so, isn't Su Tiancheng going to rebel? My lord should be confident in governing the Jiangning camp. Since the Jiangning camp is in Liaodong, you must obey your lord's order."

Chen Xinjia was slightly taken aback.

He vaguely knew that Qian Qianyi had some opinions on Su Tiancheng, why he had opinions, and the source of the contradictions, he was not very clear, but judging from what Qian Qianyi said just now, Qian Qianyi's opinions on Su Tiancheng It's a big deal, and Chen Xinjia doesn't have much to do with such a thing, but if Su Tiancheng finds out about it in the future, it's not good that Qian Qianyi talks about it in private.

"Master Qian is careful, some things, the opinions of the above are also clear, you and I just follow the meaning of the above, as for other aspects, it is better to say less, I also know that Lord Qian is for my own good, I hope The situation in Liaodong has undergone tremendous changes, so you and I should just follow this idea and do things seriously, and don’t talk about the rest.”

Qian Qianyi's old face was a little red. Although Chen Xinjia said it tactfully, his meaning was very clear. He obviously lost face by talking behind his back like this. (to be continued...)
