Borrow the day to change the day

For the next two consecutive days, Zhong Jinwei got up early and returned late to go to the palace to discuss matters.After the third day, the things discussed began to be implemented.

First, Cao Wenzhao was granted the title of Uncle Jingbei, succeeding Duke Xingguo in charge of the Beijing camp.Cao changed Jiao and Huang Degong to deputy generals and became Cao Wenzhao's right-hand man in charge of the Beijing camp.

Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, Li Wenxiu, and Ai Nengqi performed well in this battle and made great contributions. They were also promoted to the post of guerrilla by leapfrogging.

All the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp who participated in the war were rewarded for their meritorious deeds.In addition to the necessary medals, the imperial court also gave the soldiers of the Beijing camp two choices, silver rewards or Liaodong land rewards.

Only a small number of soldiers in the Beijing camp whose ancestral home was in Liaodong chose land, while most of them chose money.After all, the families of the soldiers of the Beijing camp are all in the capital, and money is more convenient for them.

Then the imperial court announced the arrangements for Liaodong. Lu Xiang, the governor of Denglai, was promoted to the new position of governor of Liaodong. He was in charge of the military and political power of Liaodong.

The former acting governor of Yongping Zuo Yingxuan was transferred to the governor of Liaodong to preside over the recovery of Liaodong after the war.The station is in Liaoyang, and it is mainly responsible for the military and political affairs in the south of Liaodong, under the jurisdiction of the Governor of Liaodong.

He Kegang, the former deputy general of Liaodong, was named Kerber and led the army to garrison the Horqin Grassland.Responsible for building Horqin City on the grassland and managing the military and political power of Horqin Grassland.

Zu Dashou, the former commander-in-chief of Liaodong, was granted the title of Zhenbei Bo, and he was stationed in Tlin, where the former Nuer Gandu Commander Sizhi Office was located.Responsible for guarding the northern border for Daming and opening up the territory to the north.

Wu Sangui, the former general of Ningyuan, was finally promoted to General Kerr a few years later than in history. Under the command of He Kegang, he was in charge of the military of Horqin Grassland and opened up the territory of Ming Dynasty to the north.

Due to the excellent performance of the Horqin people in this war, the compulsory military service was shortened to five years, and the first year of compulsory labor was exempted.Among them, the two leaders of the Horqin clan, Wu Keshan and Chahan, the two sons of the former King Darhan, were conferred the titles of Taipingbo and Gupingbo respectively, and they were given a mansion in the capital, where they could enjoy the glory and wealth.

All the meritorious officers and men in the Guanning Army and the Denglai Army were rewarded, specifically in cash, land, and Jurchen slaves. The amount was based on the amount of merit.In any case, these soldiers became the landlords of the Northeast at once.

As for the Han people under the rule of Jianlu in Liaodong, the governor of Liaodong will conduct Jiabei, and the Han people who have no major evil deeds will be allocated a small piece of land.As for the Han people who have serious evil deeds, they will be treated as traitors.

Along with the imperial decree, there were also a large number of Jinyiwei political commissars, led by Chen Yukang, the commander of Jinyiwei, and began to reorganize the Guanning Army and Denglai Army according to the Beijing battalion.

At the same time, the imperial court officially announced the reorganization plan of the frontier army, that is, the existing frontier army will be divided into two types: field army and local army.The frontier armies in Shanxi and Zhili were in charge of Sun Chengzong, governor of Jiliao; the frontier armies in Gansu and Shaanxi were in charge of the trilateral governor Hong Chengchou.The armies in these two places will do some preliminary work first, and after the reorganization of the Guanning Army and the Denglai Army is completed, they will start to reorganize in sequence.

As soon as these decrees were announced, they aroused heated discussions in the capital.No matter which restaurant or tea house, as long as someone is gossiping, you can hear someone discussing some of these things.

"The imperial court is really generous this time, conferring one duke and five earls at once, which is rare in my Ming Dynasty!" said a diner who looked like a scholar shaking his head.

A short man at the table next to him turned his head immediately when he heard this, and said with dissatisfaction: "What's wrong with the Duke, this is already a Marquis. With such great achievements, shouldn't he be named again?"

The other person at the scholar's table saw that the short man looked a little bit annoyed, and quickly explained: "Brother, forgive me, he is mainly lamenting the five earls."

A merchant who was at the same table as the short man also interjected: "Don't look at the five earls, but the court is still making money."

When the strong man at the same table heard it, he asked directly: "Brother, don't pay attention to these sour talents, just talk to us."

When the merchant heard this, he smiled apologetically at the two scholars according to his professional habits, then turned back and said to the strong man, "Don't talk about the duke, and talk about the duke's right and wrong behind his back. I'll tell you Tell me about the five earls."

Many people around him recognized the three brothers, and now that they were starting to gossip again, they all listened with pricked ears, and some simply put down their chopsticks and turned around to look at them.

"These five earls are not hereditary. This is one of them. Second, except for the fact that Uncle Jingbei has great power and is reused by the court, the others are just average. For example, the two earls of the Horqin clan , It’s all about isolating them from the clansmen, and the court paid to raise them in the capital. Do you think the court made money for these two earls?”

Hearing what the merchant said, the short man couldn't help but said, "Who made them come here to harm us back then!"

The merchant knew that the short man still had a trace of hatred in his heart, so he complained.He ignored his second brother's topic and continued: "Let's talk about Kerber and Zhenbeibo. Although they won the earls, they want to expand the territory for Daming in the bitter cold land. It can be expected that the future territory of Daming will be far away. Beyond the most prosperous territory since the founding of the country."

"That's right. Look at the area under the jurisdiction of Nuergandusi, which was abandoned in the ninth year of Xuande, and it was also garrisoned by Zhenbeibo. Compared with before, the level is higher. This is to bring all the bitter cold lands into the Ming Dynasty territory." Another table One of the diners heard this and chimed in affirmatively.

The imperial court's move to open up northern Xinjiang has actually clearly informed the world in this series of measures.Anyone with a right mind can understand this.

Therefore, after discussing this topic for a while, it changed to a new topic.I only heard the strong man say to the merchant: "Brother, you said that Duke Xingguo is no longer in charge of the Beijing camp. Is there any problem here?"

The merchant heard this, glanced at the strong man, and said loudly: "What's the problem? At the time when Jianlu was raging, Duke Xingguo was ordered to rectify the Beijing camp. Yes. Let me tell you, Duke Xingguo resigned from the emperor himself as Admiral of the Beijing Camp, do you know the reason?"

As soon as they heard the big news here, a large group of people gathered around and speculated about the reason for Xing Guogong's resignation.

Seeing so many people gathered around to gossip, the merchant became even more interested, and said mysteriously, "You won't believe the Duke's reason."

When the merchant said this, the people around him became even more curious and stopped guessing. They all surrounded him and urged him to speak quickly.There was even a bold person who patted the table and told the shopkeeper that he had invited the meal for this table.

The merchant bowed his hands to the person who supported him with practical actions, and then stopped entertaining people and said it directly.
