Chapter 2269 Gui Zi Juan is getting better and better, and he can control it with moderation

After being busy for several consecutive days, Feng Ziying felt like a spinning top. Almost every day when she arrived at the Ministry of War office, she had to throw herself into complicated affairs, and everything was urgent and needed to be dealt with. There was no room for him. There is respite.

Only then did he realize that it was really difficult to be the Minister of War, especially in the absence of financial support from the Ministry of Household Affairs. Many things he could only think about were beautiful, but when implemented, they were stretched, and he could even just put them on hold and wait. .

However, Feng Ziying still enjoys this kind of enrichment and busyness, because she can feel her own efforts to achieve her own ideas and goals, even if it is accumulated bit by bit, she also has a sense of accomplishment.

 Every day, dinner can basically only be eaten at the public house, and it is usually almost midnight before we can return home.

Xue Biao is reassuring in his work. He helped the driver to raise enough ships within the specified time, and the transportation plan he formulated also made the driver full of praise.

Feng Ziying also specifically reviewed the plan drawn up by Xue Biao, and transported the Northern Front Army Corps and related grain and grass supplies to Niuzhuang from Dagu and Yuguan respectively. Yuguan mainly transported people, while Dagu mainly transported grain and grass materials. Lord, a small number of soldiers will also start from Dagu.

The plan also included a land route plan from Niuzhuang to Shenyang. If this could be achieved, it is no wonder that You Shilu highly praised Xue Biao, saying that Xue Biao's plan saved at least five to ten days for the mobilization.

Sun Chengzong also admired Xue Biao's performance very much. He bluntly said that even if such talents did not come from the imperial examination, they could definitely work in the driving department. If Xue Biao was willing, he could start by donating officials from a low-ranking position and gradually accumulate in the future. Of course, if you reach the level of principal, it will definitely not be realistic any higher.

Even so, this made Xue Biao inexplicably excited, but he also knew what Sun Chengzong said, but it was definitely not realistic to gain a foothold in the Ministry of War with this action alone.

From Xue Biao's point of view, he would rather continue to serve as a partner for the time being and continue to serve the Ministry of War. If one day the Ministry of War feels that it cannot do without Xue Biao, then it will be logical for him to join the driving department. After a few years, after obtaining an official status, even if he resigns and goes to power, it will be different.

 With the three-year political watch period expired, the Jinshi scholars in this subject finally began to take up their respective positions after the three-year political observation period.

As expected, Sun Chuanting stayed in the Ministry of War, which could fill the gap after Zheng Chongjian left. Chen Qiyu did not come to the Ministry of War, but went to the Ministry of Works. Fu Zonglong also came to the Ministry of War. In addition, Ma Shiying entered the Hanlin Academy, and Song Shixiang went to the Ministry of Household Affairs. Xue Wenzhou went to the Ministry of Commerce, while Xu Qixun went to the Ministry of Rites.

Sun Chuanting, Fu Zonglong, and Wang Yingxiong from the previous department have all arrived at the Ministry of War. According to the custom, after the three-year term of Jinshi Guanzheng, they are awarded the sixth rank of chief. For Sun Chuanting and Fu Zonglong, such a position is considered their best. Opportunity to exercise.

"Sit down." Seeing that the three of them were still a little reserved, Feng Ziying laughed, "First of all, let me make it clear that I am just a classmate today, no matter how high or low I am, so I will call me Ziying. What I will be called in the future is another matter. "

Feng Ziying's initiative made the three of them breathe a sigh of relief. If they really wanted adults to come over, it would be awkward, especially when there are no outsiders.

Wang Yingxiong was still bold and said, "Ziying, this is what you said, so it is better for us to obey your orders than to be respectful."

Feng Ziying waved her hand, signaling that she didn't need to worry about this matter, "Okay, I'm here to talk to you three about serious matters. Feixiong, you are considered a senior now. You came earlier than the rest of us. You have a better understanding of the situation at the Ministry of War." I am more familiar with it and should understand the current situation in the Ministry of War. Although there are many dark sides, don’t ruin Boya and Zhonglun’s good expectations here.”

Seeing Sun Chuanting and Fu Zonglong looking over at them curiously, obviously not understanding what Feng Ziying was referring to, Wang Yingxiong quickly raised his hand and said, "Ziying, don't be rude to me. I'm just a small boss, and I just want to keep my head down." I have to do my job well. As for other things, I don’t have the energy or mind to think about it. If you want to know anything Ziying, or if you want me to give you a suggestion, I will tell you."

"Well, let me be blunt. The Military Selection Department is the most important department of the Ministry of War. In other words, this is the soul of the Ministry of War. In the final analysis, the Ministry of War is built around fighting. Although the Military Selection Department seems to have a high position, the selection of officials is We still have to see what is possible in fighting, so all the focus must be on fighting.”

 Feng Ziying spoke in a long voice.

"But the staff department is doing very poorly now, or it is seriously lagging behind the needs of the situation. It only knows a little about Liaodong, but it is only superficial. Nurhachi can use Li Yongfang to collect intelligence within us, win over military generals, and then in the war Showing off his skills, what happened to Jin Yuhe? He suddenly switched sides and attacked. If he hadn't reacted quickly, Zhao Shujiao would have been hit. How many people here were pulled over by Li Yongfang, waiting for the opportunity to explode, we don't even know Know,…"

The words made Sun Chuanting and Fu Zonglong feel horrified.

They have heard about the situation in Liaodong, but they don't know much about it. After all, they have just entered the Ministry of War. Sun Chuanting is still observing the government in the Ministry of War, while Fu Zonglong is observing the government in the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, and they know even less about the situation in the Ministry of War.

Li Yongfang and the others all knew about him because he was so famous.

Fushun Pass suddenly rebelled and surrendered to the Jianzhou Jurchens, which directly stabbed Liaodong Town in the back. If Feng Tang had not responded in time, the entire north and east of Shenyang Zhongwei would have fallen.

 But that was a few years ago. Unexpectedly, Li Yongfang would jump out again and hit Liaodong Town in the middle, and then blinded Liaodong Town.

"Ziying, Li Yongfang has become a monster again?" Fu Zonglong couldn't help but asked: "It's not enough to suffer a loss. Didn't Cao Wenzhao take some precautions?"

Sun Chuanting knew more than Fu Zonglong and shook his head: "It's not that simple. Li Yongfang has been operating in Liaodong Town for decades. At that time, he was with Li Rusong, Li Rubai, Zhao Lejiao, Liu Wei, Du Song, and the Zu brothers. Li Chengliang was a general under his command, in the same camp, in the same system, and had very close contacts. He was a gentle and cautious person, especially sociable, and had a close relationship with the middle and lower-level military attachés. So now you want to say how many of those military generals back then had something to do with him. Who can find out clearly? And now that Zhao Shujiao and the others have a bad relationship with Cao Wenzhao, how could they easily hand over the matter to Cao Wenzhao?"

Fu Zonglong said angrily: "Wouldn't that mean that we are ignoring military and national affairs and only caring about the interests of these regional groups? If the Jianzhou Jurchens launch another attack, wouldn't it mean that we will lose troops and territory again?"

Wang Yingxiong shook his head: "That's why the imperial court adjusted Cao Wenzhao and let Zhao Lejiao take office. The Liaodong Gang was unwilling to hand over the handle to Cao Wenzhao for fear that Cao Wenzhao would kill someone with a borrowed knife. But now that Zhao Lejiao is one of his own, how can we clean it up?" There are not so many taboos in dealing with it. The ministry must have sent letters to Zhao Lijiao and Liu Wei. Long Jinwei should also be there to be responsible for dealing with this. However, even so, it is still difficult to trace. , some people hide it very deeply, and before there is conclusive evidence, they can easily move people, and it will also dampen morale, so this question is very difficult to answer."

The phrase "Liaodong Gang" made Feng Ziying a little confused. Now this is actually said in the Ministry of War? Zhao Shu teaches them that they are the Liaodong Gang, so what kind of gang are Dad, Cao Wenzhao, He Shixian, and You Shigong? Datong Gang or Northwest Gang?

Feng Ziying took a deep look at Wang Yingxiong. It seemed that she would have to talk to Wang Yingxiong alone after coming down. There was a lot of water in the Ministry of War.

"No matter how difficult it is, you have to do it." Feng Ziying calmed down and then continued, "Who is willing to face the danger of having a knife stabbed in the back at any time? This is what Zhao Lijiao, Liu Wei, Du Song and the Zu brothers If your family doesn’t understand, then you are really asking for your own death.”

The three of them also nodded. Everyone understands this truth. They are not afraid of strong external enemies, but are afraid of internal problems. If it is an internal response, it will be even more scary.

"Compared with Nurhachi's ability, our military department's performance is mediocre. I'm not bragging on my father's behalf. When my father was the governor of Jiliao and the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, he still brought Shuerhaqi and his son over. It also shows that Jianzhou Jurchen is not impeccable internally. Of course, we have to admit that Nurhaci’s control is stronger than a few years ago, but isn’t there no chance at all? Nurhachi’s eldest son Chu Ying is now said to have been relegated to the sidelines and idle. Does he have any grievances or ideas? Can we send someone to contact him? "

Wang Yingxiong hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Ziying, the staff department has not been sorted out internally. The staff and intelligence are somewhat intertwined. Should it be based on war and region, or staff and intelligence? It turns out that There was also a big debate. Mr. Yuan and Yang Wenruo also had different opinions after they came, so..."

According to Feng Ziying, staff and intelligence must be separated, but once a war breaks out in a certain area, a special intelligence team must be formed to provide support. However, in daily situations, they must still have separate branches. .

 The principle of division of labor but not of family should also apply here.

Feng Ziying put forward his own point of view. After careful consideration, Wang Yingxiong also felt that Feng Ziying's opinion was more comprehensive. It not only divided the labor, but also did not separate the families. Once needed, they would immediately merge into one and concentrate their efforts, like Liaodong now. When the Tumut people all need to concentrate their efforts, they naturally have to stick together.

Of course, Feng Ziying didn't just talk about this when he came to meet the three people today. He would explain this to Yuan Huazhong and Yang Sichang. On the one hand, he wanted to learn from Wang Yingxiong about the deeper situation in the department, and on the other hand, he also wanted to tell Sun Chuanting and Fu Zonglong Give instructions and instill some of your intentions into them.
