Chapter 68: Adjust Qi Jiguang to Beijing

Yu Dayou's funeral was held very grandly, and Zhu Yijun also gave Yu Dayou enough mourning after his death, but even so, Zhu Yijun was still in a bad mood. Yu Dayou's death made Zhu Yijun feel more urgency.

"Your Majesty, it's time to have a meal!"

Zhang Jing looked at Zhu Yijun with some concern and said, bent down.

After looking at Zhang Jing, Zhu Yijun nodded, and then said, "Take it over!"

Zhu Yijun has been trying his best to adjust his mood these days. Although Yu Dayou's death made Zhu Yijun very sad, some things still have to be done, such as selecting a new admiral for Zuo Long Wugu.

This candidate must be chosen from among young people. Zhu Yijun thought about it for a long time and finally thought that Zhang Weixian was quite suitable.

He has a good background, a British Duke's Mansion, and is also very capable. He is young and has been in the academy. In recent years, he has followed Liu Xian in the Beijing Camp and has made good progress. It is reasonable to improve one step.

Zhu Yijun was not too confused, so he quickly issued the imperial edict and sent it directly to the Governor's Office of the Five Army.

There is nothing to hesitate about this matter. Yu Dayou trained Zuo Long Wuwei, but the commander Zuo Long Wuwei cannot rely on veterans, otherwise he will be replaced in a few years. It is time for Zhang Weixian to go to the front stage, and Zhu Yijun is very optimistic about this.

There was nothing else before the New Year, so Zhu Yijun relaxed.

She stayed with Queen Wang every day, and since she became pregnant, she has been more careful in and outside the palace. Now she is pregnant, and Zhu Yijun also wants to spend the New Year with more things to accompany her and do her best to be her husband.

Queen Wang is in a good mood these days. Although she is inevitably troubled by her body, Queen Wang can feel Zhu Yijun's love for her and his love for the children in her belly.

During the Chinese New Year, nothing happened to the court, and everything was peaceful.

"Sir, General Ma is gone!"

Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Jing, was slightly stunned, then smiled bitterly, shook his head helplessly, and sighed. Some things in this world are really helpless. Yu Dayou just left, and Ma Fang went again. When people are strong and poor!

After the winter, I still couldn't stand it and Ma Fang died.

Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said, "Let me order the cabinet to treat the funeral!"

This time Zhu Yijun did not go to Ma Mansion, but he also gave him a lot of rewards. Zhu Yijun also gave Ma Fang's posthumous title to Wu Yi and posthumously named Pingxi Hou, which was considered to give Ma Fang a mourning honor. Ma Fang's death made Zhu Yijun's mood worse again when he got up.

This time Zhu Yijun needs to find a new admiral for the Xiying in Jingying, who is no better than Zuolong Martial Guard.

Xiying was trained by Ma Fang, and it is mainly aimed at grassland cavalry. In recent years, with the expansion, Xiying has 15,000 cavalry. In recent years, Zhu Yijun has invested a lot in this area and has also had a good effect.

Originally, in this Oirat incident, Zhu Yijun was planning to ask Ma Fang to take Xiying to the grassland for a walk.

Now that people are dead, it is difficult to find Ma Fang's successor. You need to understand the grassland and fight with the Oirats. Otherwise, it would be really terrible for outsiders to command the insiders. Zhu Yijun's first thought was Qi Jiguang, but when he thought of his Qi family army, Zhu Yijun hesitated again.

It is naturally fine to command Xiying, but what should he do if Qi Jiguang does?

Liaodong still cannot live without him. If he is allowed to enter Beijing, will the Qi family army be abolished? Zhu Yijun is reluctant to abandon the Qi family army, which has a strong combat effectiveness, which makes him have to consider this matter.

Zhu Yijun thought about it and finally came to Xu Wenchang.

"Go and find Xu Wenchang for me!" Zhu Yijun glanced at Zhang Jing and said.

Xu Wenchang has basically been with Hai Rui'er these days. During the Chinese New Year, other people's families are happy. These two widowed old men have more comfort. They have studied the new Daxin County together and have a very pleasant life.

When Xu Wenchang heard the emperor's summons, he naturally did not dare to delay and followed Zhang Jing to the palace.

The king and his ministers were very familiar with each other, so Zhu Yijun was not polite and said directly: "Xu Aiqing, Ma Fang and Ma Aiqing gave up my son and left. In less than a month, I lost two beloved generals. Now the admiral in the West Camp in Beijing is vacant. I wonder who I think can be a successor?"

Xu Wenchang was stunned. It turned out that the emperor was asking this, and then he smiled and said, "Your Majesty just let Qi Jiguang enter Beijing."

After looking at Xu Wenchang, Zhu Yijun did not expect that Xu Wenchang would actually transfer him back to Qi Jiguang. He glanced at Xu Wenchang, and Zhu Yijun hesitated and said, "Qi Jiguang is in charge of Ji Liao, and transfer him back. What should the Qi family army do?"

After hearing Zhu Yijun's words, Xu Wenchang suddenly smiled and looked at Zhu Yijun and said, "Your Majesty, the army led by Qi Jiguang is called Qi's army!"

Zhu Yijun was stunned when he heard this. Well, he seemed to have made this mistake.

"The Qi family army refers to the Qi family army that was fighting against the Japanese in the southeast. The main soldiers came from Yiwu, which is the famous Yiwu soldiers, and some were also called Zhejiang Army. After the Japanese pirates in the southeast were pacified, most of this Zhejiang army remained in Zhejiang."

"Based on age, these Zhejiang soldiers are at least forty or fifty years old. The youngest one is probably almost forty and can't be killed."

"The Ji Liao army, which was now commanded by Qi Jiguang in Jiliao, was actually the first year of Longqing. It submitted a memorial to the director Wu Shi, suggesting that Qi Jiguang, Yu Dayou and others train soldiers in the Jimen area, but after the court's discussion, it was decided to only appoint Qi Jiguang."

"So the court appointed Qi Jiguang as the deputy general of the Shenji Camp. At that time, Tan Lun had just recruited 30,000 infantry in Liao and Ji areas, and recruited 3,000 soldiers in Zhejiang. The court handed these people over to Qi Jiguang for training."

"Later, the imperial court appointed Qi Jiguang as the general of Ji Liao, and had a rank of governors. He trained soldiers from Jizhou, Changping, Baoding and other places. Officials below the general were controlled by Qi Jiguang."

"Although most of the Ji Liao army are trained by Qi Jiguang, they are not called the Qi family army. If you have to say it, then the three thousand people from Zhejiang are all Ji Liao army."

"But this is also the place where I admire Qi Jiguang. He is becoming more and more like a famous general now."

Zhu Yijun was stunned, looked at Xu Wenchang, and asked with a smile: "How can I explain this?"

"When Qi Jiguang went to the southeast to pacify the Japanese pirates, he was defeated. In the end, there was no choice but to go to recruit conscripts. Let's see who Qi Jiguang is now, who can use them, and who can fight."

"What kind of virtues of those Ji Liao army were like now is a world of difference!"

Zhu Yijun nodded with a smile, but refuted Xu Wenchang: "Qi Jiguang has made progress, but he was in the Southeast back then, so he didn't have time to train him. What he needed was to get out and fight."

"Qi Jiguang went to Ji Liao, and he really spent a lot of time on training."

Xu Wenchang nodded in agreement: "Of course, there is also a relationship between the court. At that time, the court had no money to pay, and now the court has money. Not to mention anything else, when Mr. Zhang was there in those years, Qi Jiguang's military pay had never been owed."

"The rewards for merits are not a discount at all, and even give them more. Only Qi Jiguang can do this in the world."

Zhu Yijun could hear the sadness in Xu Wenchang's tone, and obviously he thought of Hu Zongxian again. Like Qi Jiguang, Hu Zongxian also relied on flattering the powerful and powerful to do things, but one person was Yan Song and the other was Zhang Juzheng.

In fact, Zhu Yijun is also very uncomfortable in this matter, but sometimes, some things really make you so helpless.

"I won't even go back!" Zhu Yijun glanced at Xu Wenchang and said with a smile: "This kind of thing will definitely not happen."

Xu Wenchang glanced at Zhu Yijun and laughed, and the more he laughed, the louder heavier heavier heavier.

Although he went off the wrong way as he talked about the topic, Zhu Yijun knew that the matter of transferring Qi Jiguang to Beijing was decided. The imperial edict was quickly sent out, and Qi Jiguang was transferred to the position of the admiral of the Xiying in the Beijing camp.

As for Qi Jiguang's successor, in Xu Wenchang's words, it would be enough to find someone under Qi Jiguang's hands.

Although Liaodong is now in chaos, Li Chengliang can handle it. Since Qi Jiguang put down Dong Huli, there is no big threat to the Ji Liao land. The problem now is that the Ola in the northwest has impolitely enthroned the son of the third lady, Bu He.

There will be chaos in the Oirat side, which will inevitably affect the northwest. If Ma Fang is there, he can send Ma Fang. Now that Ma Fang is dead, the northwest needs a strong man to go there.

Who is this strong man? Of course it is Qi Jiguang!

Zhu Yijun was relieved when he issued an order to transfer Qi Jiguang to Beijing, and the Xidaying in the Beijing camp could be considered stable.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the court resumed its office, but in fact nothing happened. Although Zhu Yijun did a lot of things last year, the actual major policy, namely, the case of raising scholars and private salt is nothing.

It was nothing more than investigating a private salt case and killing some people, which was not even comparable to the case of the Ministry of War Arsenal Department.

Although the Arsenal Department was split, it was actually just a change in the imperial institutions. With Pan Jixun's ability, everything is now on track. I heard that it is being researched recently in water conservancy stamping machines, and it seems that it will be successful.

Although the raising of the senate is a big deal and the Taxation Department has also established it, but before the time to collect the land tax, I can't see anything now.

However, there is one thing that makes Zhu Yijun a headache, that is his younger brother Zhu Yiliu.

Zhu Yili's title is King Lu, and this has been decided long ago, but he is not young this year and it is time to open the mansion. Zhu Yijun doesn't care, but once he opens the mansion, he needs to reward land and money.

In addition, the recent Queen Mother Li is planning to prepare for her son’s wedding, which must be another huge expense.
