Chapter 1967 Nothing to say the truth
When the generals started to listen to Wu Zheng's words, they were still depressed.
But after hearing this, they all laughed.
"Abide by the orders of His Highness the Superintendent!"
Wu Zheng smiled bitterly. It seems that no matter how hard he works in his life, he will not be able to be a gentleman!
The generals went back with satisfaction.
Only Chen Zhiyuan, who is stubbornly reluctant to leave.
"What you said just now is true or false?"
Wu Zheng was a little impatient, "Whether it is true or false, you will know then!"
"Do you have to make some preparations?"
"What preparation?" Wu Zheng looked at Chen Zhiyuan in confusion.
"You...!" Chen Zhiyuan looked angry at him, "Many people in the Northern Expedition Army have a close relationship with important officials in the court or the ministers of the General's Office... They can't let the news spread, right?"
Wu Zheng was angry, "What's wrong... do you still want to cleanse the army?"
"If you don't clean it, how can you ensure that there will be no mutiny at that time!" Chen Zhiyuan argued with reason and glared at Wu Zheng without fear, "Unless what you said just now is fake!"
Wu Zheng sat down slowly, looked at Chen Zhiyuan for a while, then raised his hand and pointed out the door, "Get out!"
"Huang Changping, from today... I don't want to see this person!"
....
People are sometimes strange.
It seems that this earth will stop turning away from someone.
But I really think that this person is gone, and life is the same, singing and dancing.
The Jianxing Dynasty lost the Emperor Zhu Lianbi. The war has been fought until now. In fact, the court and the opposition have been much smoother.
The Yongli Dynasty also lost the emperor Zhu Youlang, and Li Dingguo led his army with injuries to pacify the northwest of Ding.
I didn’t see all the important officials in Yongli’s court, so I couldn’t live a life.
According to this, what is "a country cannot be without a king for a day" is just a false saying, cliché, and scene words!
But Wu Zheng knew in his heart that this was true. The reason why the Jianxing Dynasty did not collapse due to Zhu Lianbi's death was that he was a "strong minister" and the "powerful minister" were in charge of the government affairs.
From top to bottom in Jianxing Dynasty, who doesn’t understand it in his heart like a mirror?
Since His Highness of the King of Wu can be called a ruling country in one word, when will he be in a good mood and become an emperor in one sentence?
Therefore, no one thinks that the Jianxing Dynasty has no emperor.
Naturally, the Yingtian Prefecture court and the people would no longer have the intention of being overly active. Even if there were, they would have to measure themselves first and whether they were good enough to compete with His Highness King Wu.
As for the Yongli Dynasty, it was just a mess.
The Yongli Dynasty was entirely supported by the Daxi Army. It was previously relied on Sun Kewang, but now it relied on Li Dingguo.
The civil officials of the Yongli Dynasty were originally of some kind. For example, Wu Zhenyu, Li Yuankai, Hu Shiduan, Jiang Yuchang and others, who were not famous?
Let’s talk about Wu Zhenyu, who was a Jinshi in the 16th year of Chongzhen.
After Zhu Youjian hanged himself, King Fu Zhu Yousong ascended the throne in Yingtian Prefecture, and Wu Zhenyu was appointed as the head of the Ministry of Revenue.
After Emperor Hongguang was defeated, Wu Zhenyu surrendered to the Longwu Dynasty and was the head of the Ministry of Personnel.
After Emperor Longwu's failure, Wu Zhenyu Yuzan supported King Gui Zhu Youlang, which is the Yongli Dynasty. Wu Zhenyu was promoted to Taichangqing, and then his official position was like a rocket launching... The Left Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, the Minister of Revenue, and the Grand Secretary of the East Pavilion (received as Prime Minister).
No wonder, in the troubled times, not only are military promotions quickly, but civilian positions the same.
After all, Wu Zhenyu has become an "old minister of the four dynasties". Although the two dynasties have been together for less than three years.
Zhu Youlang still had some say in such a group of people at that time.
But Sun Kewang refused. He had long been dissatisfied with Zhu Youlang's "brother relationship" with Li Dingguo. He used the excuse of court officials to conspire to rebel and arrested eighteen Yongli civil officials, including Li Yuankai, Hu Shiduan, Jiang Yuchang, etc.
On the same day, the chief assistant of the cabinet, Wu Zhenyu, was given the punishment of "blaming the king and stealing treasures and forging an edict", and the internal supervisor Zhang Fulu, and the three members of the National and Criminal Department were executed by Zhang Juan and the other members, and the rest were executed.
In this way, the civil officials of the Yongli Dynasty were actually empty, and all the people standing in the court were military officials, and almost most of the generals of the Western Army occupied them.
Now, at the invitation of Wu Zheng, Li Dingguo led the Daxi Army to raid thousands of miles into Huguang and Henan, and almost brought all the main generals of the Daxi Army with him, such as Bai Wenxuan, Ma Weixing and others.
This practice is actually the case that when the emperor personally fought, he must bring some important officials and some restless people with him, in order to keep them under his nose and look at them.
Therefore, even if Li Dingguo is in the Yongli Dynasty, he will be as stable as the emperor.
But now, there is another "emperor" in the Jianxing Dynasty.
Regardless of whether Wu Zheng admits it or not, the Jianxing Dynasty has indeed had an emperor again!
This has nothing to do with strength.
As long as it is supported, it is the emperor.
Even if Wu Zheng was angry, he would at most scold the "fake dynasty" and the "fake emperor".
But the problem is that you can't even scold this now.
Because Zhu Yihai was the emperor of the Jianxing Dynasty, and Wu Zheng was the veteran of the Jianxing Dynasty. Isn’t he scolding Jianxing Dynasty as a pseudo-dynasty?
This kind of depression really made Wu Zheng angry.
If it weren't for the experience of these seven years, maybe it would have led the army back to defeat the small ones just like the demands of the generals under his command.
It has been seven years, and time is ripe. Wu Zheng is twenty-four years old and has become a father.
According to this generation, that is a real adult.
What can I do this?
Wu Zheng also asked himself in his heart, but there was only one answer - no!
If you really want to do something for the welfare of the Han people in the world, then you can't.
Who will be beneficial to the Jiangnan prefectures that were broken and managed in seven years?
Anyway, it's useless to yourself!
At the beginning of this battle, Wu Zheng did expect something to happen in the future, so he also made some deployments and countermeasures.
However, Wu Zheng did not expect that they would use this method to constrain themselves.
It is firm to deny that their intention to fight the Northern Expedition is to be firm, but in fact, these people are indeed dragging the Northern Expedition.
Because they were afraid that Wu Zheng would regain Shuntian Mansion in one go.
In this way, wouldn’t it be natural for His Royal Highness, the already famous King of Wu to ascend the throne as a superintendent?
Who else can stop him and who dares to stop him?
OK, so there were things like not enough preparation, insufficient food and grass, the output of military workshops could not keep up, and so on.
As long as the Northern Expedition Army stagnates in Yanzhou, even south of Jinan Prefecture, it will not be considered a great achievement.
By then, the Qing court would have enough time to deploy a confrontation with the Northern Expedition Army.
These people are real people. They feel like they are clearly mirrored. If the war is over, the Qing court will be defeated.
So, what's the point of delaying it for a while? Seven years have passed, and I'm still afraid of delaying it for seven months?
Zhang Guowei went to Xuzhou to meet Wu Zheng, but ended up in unhappy ways.
Why is it happening?
Isn’t it just for the sake of whether to do something in one go and recover the Shuntian Mansion immediately?
But Wu Zheng's decisive rejection left these people hopeless. Since they were too soft, they would be tough.
So the coup happened irreversibly.
In fact, after all, it was because of no hope, and I had to start immediately.
Chapter completed!
