If you don’t kill me, you can still keep it for the New Year
Chapter 075
Don't look at it now that Sun Yuanhua has compromised with Cheng Shijie and has given in.
Cheng Shijie also knew very well that as long as Sun Yuanhua was given a chance, as long as Cheng Shijie fell into Sun Yuanhua's hands, it would not be as simple as eating millet porridge for a few days and sleeping in a utility room for a few days.
Sun Yuanhua is actually a proud man. He has never lost such a big person in his life. Since the second year of Tianqi, the defense of Liaodong has been tight. He submitted two strategies to the imperial court: "Beijing Preparation" and "Border Defense", which received the attention of the imperial court.
.At that time, Sun Chengzong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, went to Jiliao to oversee the division. He accompanied the army as counselor and military affairs, which was why he was serving as an official.
In ten years, he went from being a civil servant to a second-grade governor, reaching a ceiling that countless officials could not reach in their lifetimes. In these ten years, no matter what kind of ups and downs he experienced, he never gave up his reserve and pride.
The powerful Wei Zhongxian and Eunuch Wei never asked him to bow his head. When it was time to fight, he would not give in at all. Jane was in the emperor's heart, so what could the popular Yuan Chonghuan do, he still refused to offend him.
From Sun Chengzong to Yuan Chonghuan, everyone regarded him as their right-hand man. In the second year of Chongzhen, the slaves broke through the pass and threatened the capital. In the predicament of isolation inside and outside the pass, Sun Yuanhua united his soldiers and garrisoned eight cities and twenty-four forts with the help of Western cannons.
Standing still. He advocated using Guangning as the front line and taking the initiative to attack the slaves. When all the Ming officials were afraid that the slaves would be like tigers, he was experienced, calm and confident. He has always been praised by everyone inside and outside the court.
However, Sun Yuanhua, who was like the proud son of heaven, was shattered by an unbelievable accident. He could not imagine that Cheng Shijie, a Ninghai navy with only three thousand soldiers, no, no, this was not from Cheng Shijie.
The real mastermind of the plan was the short man Song who was less than four feet tall.
He never imagined how Song Xiance would control Penglai Water City and Dengzhou, a major military town with more than 20,000 water and land troops garrisoned, overnight.
Even though he was not able to swim, he did not panic when he fell into the cold sea water. Facing the Guangning front line where Jiannu attacked and arrows rained like rain, he remained motionless as a mountain. He was thrown into the utility room directly.
For the first time in my life, I felt fear.
Until he saw Cheng Shijie again with a sincere smile on his face, Sun Yuanhua instinctively felt that Cheng Shijie did not want to hurt him.
The reason why he doesn't want to hurt himself is actually very simple. He wants to get more things from his own hands. Sun Yuanhua knew from the first moment he saw Cheng Shijie that no matter sooner or later, Cheng Shijie would definitely come to him for negotiations.
.
Sun Yuanhua was also very confident that he would take the initiative. So in this situation, he acted very tough. It is a pity that Cheng Shijie turned out to be such a rogue.
A body weighing more than 200 kilograms presses on my small frame of more than 100 kilograms. Is this something humans do?
A grown man actually cried in front of him. Is this something that the leader of an army can do?
Sun Yuanhua did not want to let Cheng Shijie succeed easily, nor did he want to compromise easily. Unfortunately, God's calculations were not as good as those of man.
Relatively speaking, Cheng Shijie adheres to principles and bottom lines, while Kong Youde and Dongjiang Army are the factors that are least controllable.
Choose the greater of the two benefits, choose the lesser of the two harms!
Under this principle, Sun Yuanhua could only compromise with Cheng Shijie and solve the problem of Kong Youde and the Dongjiang Army's rebellion first.
At this time, Cheng Shijie did not get carried away. He was now sober in the world. He believed that Sun Yuanhua would never forget the insult and pain. One day, when he was ready for everything, he would definitely take revenge.
As long as Cheng Shijie falls into his hands, it will definitely not be as simple as eating millet porridge for a few days and sleeping in a utility room for a few days.
As the deputy director of the agency office, Cheng Shijie is very familiar with the way of thinking of his superiors. On the surface, Cheng Shijie was unjustly accused this time, and he was indeed unaware of it. However, his superiors and leaders definitely did not believe that Cheng Shijie was innocent, at least what Cheng Shijie had done
Similar planning and deployment.
Otherwise, Ning Haijun would not easily capture Dengzhou City and control Dengzhou City smoothly.
Leaders don't need evidence, it's enough for them to have a suspicion.
In the past, Ninghai Prefecture was a blessed land for Ning Haijun, and Ninghai Prefecture could also be used for development. But the problem is that Ninghai Prefecture can no longer stay. If it continues, it will be a dead end.
Sun Yuanhua didn't even need to make any big move. He only needed to do one thing: tear up the original promise he made with him and cancel Ning Haijun's power to reclaim wasteland. Ning Haijun, who could no longer get the land, would immediately fall apart.
Even if he pinches his nose and accepts this promise for the sake of his own face, he will really dismember Ning Haijun, find a free time to raise Cheng Shijie, and rise and fall covertly, whether it is throwing him to Dengzhou Guard, or
Throw it to the Yamen of the Shandong Du Commandery Department, or to the Shandong Beiwa Dusi Department, and he will cause the sky to respond and the earth to be inoperable.
As for the saying, broken mirrors are reunited, and conflicts are turned into jade and silk.
Don't even think about it, it's simply impossible.
The relationship between a leader and his subordinates is just like the relationship between a man and a woman. Once he cheats, he will never be trusted again.
During this period of time, Cheng Shijie had actually been thinking about where Ning Haijun and he should go. This unexpected mutiny completely disrupted his plan.
Cheng Shijie took the teapot and poured Sun Yuanhua a cup of tea.
Sun Yuanhua said calmly: "Master Cheng, there is no need to be so attentive. Just tell me what you want!"
Cheng Shijie said with a smile: "Master Futai, although you have a teacher who is the Minister of Etiquette, you must be a smart person because you have gone from being an official to a second-rank official in ten years."
"What do you want to say?
Sun Yuanhua smiled faintly: "Is there any use in flattering me now?"
"Master Futai, let me tell you straight. Ning Haijun did not launch a mutiny, nor was there any rebellion!"
"Then what!"
"Four days ago, General Zhang Tao of the Dengzhou Army suddenly launched a rebellion. Tens of thousands of common people in Dengzhou City were destroyed. Mr. Futai, you are wise and wise, and you see thousands of miles. You decisively ordered the Ning Navy to guard Cheng Shijie, who is the leader of the army.
The army put down the rebellion, Cheng Shijie led Ning Haijun's two thousand tigers, and after a fierce fight, the rebel Zhang Tao's troops were completely wiped out!"
When Cheng Shijie said this, he pondered: "Afterwards, after your investigation, Mr. Futai, it was discovered that ten days ago, Zhang Tao, the general of the Dengzhou Army, had a conflict with Zhang Huairen, the grandson of Zhang Mengli of the Laiyang family, in Laiyang County. Zhang Tao was wantonly raped by Zhang Huairen.
Insulting and seizing Zhang Tao's concubine, Zhang Huairen seized Zhang Tao's concubine Chen in front of Zhang Tao. Zhang Tao was extremely angry and then led his troops to raid the Zhang family's ancestral home in Laiyang and slaughtered all the Zhang family in Laiyang.
More than a hundred people. Zhang Tao knew he was going to die, so he deliberately launched a rebellion in Dengzhou, planning to capture Dengzhou, seize the navy ships in Penglai Water City, and escape to the sea..."
Cheng Shijie said it calmly, but Sun Yuanhua was frightened when he heard it.
Cheng Shijie did not dare to admit that Ning Haijun launched this mutiny. He had already expected it. Zhang Tao was the only Dengzhou Army Staff General who died in the mutiny. The dead man could not open his mouth to defend himself. He had also expected it in his mind to frame Zhang Tao, but he did not do it at all.
What came to mind was that Cheng Shijie actually slaughtered all the Zhang family in Laiyang.
Although it is said that Sun Yuanhua dealt heavy blows to local powerful people when he was the governor of Denglai, he never did anything to destroy a whole family.
This smiling tiger is too cruel.
"In order to prevent Lord Futai from going back on his word, please personally write a notice to calm the people, explain Zhang Tao's rebellion clearly to the people, and publish it in nine counties and one prefecture of Dengzhou Prefecture, five counties and two prefectures of Laizhou Prefecture, and Qingzhou Prefecture.
Thirteen counties and two states, only in this way can Cheng trust that Mr. Futai will not settle the scores!"
Sun Yuanhua looked at Cheng Shijie and was so angry. But the problem was that this matter was related to his future. He didn't care about his future or even his life. But the problem was that as one of the few capable generals of the Western French Party, he was even more afraid of this.
The incident will affect his teacher Xu Guangqi.
This is the most fatal thing. He is very clear about the problem in Shandong. Now that Kong Youde has rebelled, his Denglai New Army, Navy, Dengzhou Guards and Shandong Beiwa Dusi are all imprisoned in Dengzhou City by Cheng Shijie's people and cannot move.
.
If there was no rapid military suppression, Kong Youde's army would expand rapidly like a snowball.
Although he is very angry now, for the sake of the overall situation, for the Spanish Party, and for the teacher, he must endure it.
Even, in order to pretend to be relaxed, Sun Yuanhua said with a faint smile: "Is it that simple? You have the upper hand now. Even if you want to go to the city, I have to consider it!"
"Look, Mr. Futai, you still don't believe Cheng. This matter really has nothing to do with Cheng!"
"Tell me, what else do you want?"
"Cheng wants a name!"
"In name? What name?"
"Please give the order, Master Futai, to move Ninghai Town to Liaonan!"
"What?"
Sun Yuanhua stood up suddenly: "What did you say?"
"Master Futai, Ning Haijun can no longer stay in Ninghai Prefecture. Cheng Mou has thought about it. Master Futai has lost such a big face. In any case, even if Cheng Mou digs it out, you won't believe it.
Cheng’s innocence!”
Cheng Shijie said with a wry smile: "Cheng has only one way to go now, kill to Liaonan and survive in death!"
Cheng Shijie's choice at this time was to win-win cooperation with Sun Yuanhua, rather than taking advantage of him. The main problem is that even if Sun Yuanhua is let go, Sun Yuanhua will not care about his affection, and he will definitely retaliate when he should.
But the problem is that Sun Yuanhua is not a pure person. He has his own ties, which is the Western French Party and the hard work of Xu Guangqi.
As Xu Guangqi's best student at present and a general of the Western French Party, Sun Yuanhua's greatest wish is to promote his teacher into the cabinet and become a cabinet minister of the Ming Dynasty. Only in this way can the Western French Party replace the Donglin Party and become the largest party in the Ming Dynasty.
party, we can also vigorously develop the Western French Party.
It can be said that Sun Yuanhua was one of the leaders of the Westernization Movement in the Ming Dynasty.
However, the Western French Party is not like the Qin Party, the Jin Party, or even the Chu Party, let alone the Donglin Party, which is at its peak. If Xu Guangqi is to be promoted to the cabinet, he must have dazzling military exploits.
However, Sun Yuanhua's relationship with Guan Ningjun destined him to be unable to win over Guan Ningjun, because Guan Ningjun was already a behemoth and he was not someone he could win over as a governor.
Ning Haijun did not launch a mutiny. It can be explained by Cheng Shijie's rhetoric. As for the truth, who knows, is it important?
Sun Yuanhua guessed that Cheng Shijie was not a bloodthirsty and murderous person. He said that Zhang Tao massacred more than 600 members of the Zhang family. Sun Yuanhua did not believe this. He even believed that Cheng Shijie wanted to rob the Laiyang Zhang family of their lifetime wealth.
Only in this way did Cheng Shijie have the strength to expand his army and the means to seize southern Liaoning.
Why historically, on October 28, the fourth year of Chongzhen, when Zu Dashou first surrendered to Huang Taiji, Sun Yuanhua also sent Kong Youde's troops to Liaodong by land?
Because Sun Yuanhua is a person who knows military skills, not a nerd who talks about military affairs on paper.
On the surface, Huang Taiji led an army of 50,000, including the three months before and after Dalinghe City, and achieved numerous results. He annihilated more than 14,000 elite Guan Ning troops in three battles, and annihilated more than 40,000 troops under Zhang Chun.
