As Qian Qianyi turned to Zhou Zheng for help, the situation of the cabinet changed. Yang Sichang's attitude was ambiguous. Li Banghua tried his best to remain neutral. If anything happens to the cabinet, Zhou Zheng is already at an advantage in terms of voting ratio.
Coupled with the'two weeks' tacit understanding of not adding cabinet ministers, Zhou Yanru's status has been weakened to some extent.
Among the six ministries, Zhou Zheng had the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Households, which were the same as those of Zhou Yanru's Ministry of Officials, Ministry of Rites, and Ministry of Criminal Affairs. At the local level, there were 13 governors, and Zhou Zheng had seven. In large proportions, Zhou Zheng still had relatives. Advantage.
Qian Qianyi left Beijing as agreed and went to Nanzhili. With his departure, it is foreseeable that the situation in Nanzhili will change greatly.
And Zhou Yanru was not idle either. He set about repairing the government and sorting out various relations in order to'policy order smoothly', centralizing and consolidating his power.
Li Banghua was not idle either. He was busy with things and was quietly accumulating strength.
Yang Sichang traveled through the south to implement the military reform. He went deep into every place and spared no effort to do his best.
And Zhou Zheng went north to Liaodong.
Entering Shanhaiguan, the General Soldier of Shanhaiguan was his old subordinate, Zhang Jinyuan. He was one year older than Zhou Zheng. He came from Tianjin Sanwei. He was an old man adapted from Zhou Zheng. He has followed Zhou Zheng for six or seven years.
Zhang Jinyuan responded to Zhou Zhengjing and said: "My lord, everything is ready. 15,000 people are waiting for your review. Tomorrow, there will be a field vertical piercing performance, cavalry and infantry joint operations..."
Zhang Jinyuan knew Zhou Zheng's temper, and the arrangements were just right.
Zhou Zheng approached Shanhaiguan, and said with some emotion: "How long has it been since I left, there is always a feeling of longevity."
Zhang Jinyuan grinned and said: "The adults do big things, and they are busy all the time. Unlike the general, he eats, drinks and trains every day."
Zhou Zheng glanced at him and said, "Why, I can't sit still?"
Zhang Jinyuan hurriedly bowed, accompanied by cautiously said: "How dare the general. However, many old brothers have reached the north of the Linghe River, and also the north of the Yalu River. My Shanhaiguan pass can't get through the wind and rain, and I feel a little sorry."
These soldiers under Zhou Zheng's hand, following Zhou Zhengnan's march in the North, especially some of their heads and brains, were the masters who could not rest. Last year, after Zhang Yitan was drunk, he was sent to Nanzhili by Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng walked slowly with his hands behind his back, looking at Shanhaiguan, the line of soldiers, nodded, and said: "You can sharpen your knife and chop wood by mistake. You give me a good practice. You have time to play."
Zhang Jinyuan's eyes lit up and said, "My lord, there is war?"
Zhou Zhengdao: "I want to use troops against Horqin to completely wipe out the arms of the prisoners."
Zhang Jinyuan looked solemn, he couldn't do this kind of grand strategy, but he also understood that he didn't have the frivolousness just now, and said, "My lord, do you want to go to the end?"
Zhou Zheng nodded with the soldiers passing by, and then said: "My Ming soldiers are all elite soldiers from Liaodong, and now I have scattered all over the world, and only Liaodong can be called. I'll greet you first, and I'm ready, Listen at any time."
Zhang Jinyuan knelt on one knee fiercely, and said in a deep voice, "The last general will take the command!"
Zhou Zheng kicked him immediately, and said, "Should give me this set, it's not necessarily you."
Zhang Jinyuan immediately stood up with a hippy smile, and said, "It's not a big deal for adults to speak. The soldiers are all lined up, please, adults."
Zhou Zheng smiled and shook his head, heading to the military parade.
Zhou Zheng rode through the front of the queue, looked at the formation, military appearance, and nodded secretly. Zhang Jinyuan didn't disappoint him.
Stayed in Shanhaiguan for one night, and exercised with the soldiers, and rushed to Ningyuan overnight the next night.
General Ning Yuan is Lu Xiangsheng's cousin, Lu Xiangguan.
Lu Xiangguan admired Zhou Zheng very much. It was a passion.
Zhou Zheng carefully inspected it according to the plan and nodded to himself. Lu Xiangsheng is rigorous in ruling the army, but he is not so worried.
In the evening, Zhou Zheng and Lu Xiangguan and others sat in the temple, talking about a series of things in Liaodong.
Everywhere outside the bonfire, all kinds of chatting sounded one after another.
"Zheng Xibo, that's a legend, with the body of a man, I am ranked in the court, and I am not a great man!"
"You tell me something we don't know about Zheng Xibo, which one is not bad."
"Boy, then I'll tell you something that you don't know. Do you know our governor? He was imprisoned by traitorous officials, and everyone dared to speak. It was to ask Seber to take the head of the guarantee. This was released. Do you know? "
"This, I really don't know, what's the matter?"
"Do you think that the reason why Zongbing Lu is so enthusiastic is because Zheng Xibo saved Lu's family. Do you know? Someone once asked us the governor to murder Xibe and promised great benefits. The governor sent people away without blinking. I gave it to Zheng Xibo, do you know why? It's a fateful friendship!"
"So that's it, is there any more? What else do you know?"
"What else do I know? I tell you that Zheng Xibo once said privately that he will retire in the future and this Zheng Xibo belongs to the governor..."
"Really? It's no wonder that our governor listened to Siber's words so much. It turns out that there is still this relationship..."
Lu Xiangtong happened to be passing by at this moment, and when he heard these people talking like this, his face was pale, and he directly shouted: "Come here, pull these nonsense things out of me and beat them with fifty army sticks!"
Everyone was shocked. When they saw Lu Xiangtong, they quickly got up and pleaded guilty.
Lu Xiangtong's face was green and unsympathetic at all.
Soon, the cheers and laughter turned into screams, and the law enforcement screams were merciless.
Zhou Zheng and Lu Xiangguan looked at each other inside and walked out.
The atmosphere was good, Lu Xiangguan frowned immediately and said, "What's the matter?"
Lu Xiangtong turned around, saluted Zhou Zheng, and then said coldly: "These bastards are talking nonsense, give them a better memory."
Lu Xiangguan glanced at Zhou Zheng, and said: "Okay, the adults finally come here and come in for a drink at the bar."
Lu Xiangtong raised his hand to Zhou Zheng and said, "I made the adults laugh."
Zhou Zheng waved his hand and said: "Neither I nor Jiandou care about this, and you don't need to deliberately, instead, let others say nothing."
Lu Xiang was shocked, thinking about it, and said: "Yes, I will write it down."
Zhou Zheng glanced at the several people who had been beaten, and without pleading, turned around with the Lu family brothers and went in again.
The next day, Zhou Zheng inspected Ningyuan's army and set off for Jinzhou in the evening.
Zhou Zheng and Lu Xiangsheng walked slowly in Jinzhou City, chatting while examining the defenses.
Lu Xiangsheng became more and more unsmiling, speaking and taking a sharp look. Zhou Zheng slowed down half a step, saying: "At present, there are 16 castles built around Dalinghe and Dalinghe. They are slowly connected as the first line of defense to defend Liaodong. From the Taizihe River. In the south, three cities are planned to be built on the basis of Guangning Sanwei, to move people, open up wasteland, and make long-term plans. Dongjiang Town, Lushun Guards have sent troops to Phoenix, based on this as the center, build seventeen cities, in order to gradually advance, Consolidate Liaodong..." (End of this chapter)
