"Mi Sihan's previous title book said that the imperial court should send two to three hundred and eight banner soldiers and thousands of green battalions for his use... I think about it, he is indeed a polished imperial envoy. Pingnan Prince's Mansion The vassal army did not listen to him, and most of the green battalion generals in Guangdong were self-organized, which was indeed difficult to command. Most of the reasons for the previous defeat in Jieyang were due to this. If he could have Wan'er 8,000 reliable and available Soldiers, then Jieyang County will not be lost in any case."
Kangxi talked eloquently, and the meaning behind his words was obvious.
The first is to excuse Mi Sihan - this Mi Sihan was Kangxi's confidant and very actively supported the withdrawal of the vassal state. He also worked hard to go south to Guangdong to suppress the Third Prince Zhu, and he also had the mission of taking advantage of the opportunity of suppressing the Third Prince Zhu to control Chaozhou and lay a nail between the Shang and Geng vassals.
To be honest, this problem is indeed difficult to handle, and it is inevitable to suffer some setbacks. But Kangxi knew Mi Sihan's loyalty and ability, so instead of punishing him at this time, he also supported him!
And he didn't let the people below to guess or take the blame, he directly made his position clear!
After hearing what Emperor Kangxi said, those ministers and servants who had originally planned to add insult to injury and read Mi Sihan's book immediately changed their minds and did not dare to trick Mi Sihan again. Not only did he not dare to cheat Mi Sihan, but he also had to help him figure out a way.
Grand Bachelor Tu Hai has the most tricks up his sleeve, how else could he be the Chief Grand Bachelor? As soon as Kangxi finished speaking, he went out to play in class.
"Your Majesty, I think that the Third Prince Zhu is just a clown. There is no need to use the Eight Banners heavenly soldiers. If you transfer some green soldiers from the north who can fight, and send one or two generals who can fight, you can naturally defeat them in one fell swoop. .”
Emperor Kangxi nodded, Tu Hai's words came to his heart.
The Heavenly Soldiers of the Eight Banners cannot be dispatched casually. It is natural for the Heavenly Soldiers to go out and win this time, but what if they are defeated?
It's a small thing to be embarrassed, but it's absolutely impossible to lose the paper tiger that shocks the world!
"Let's first mobilize five thousand green battalion soldiers from Zhili, Shanxi, Henan, Shandong, Shaanxi and other places, and put them under the control of the Imperial Envoy Mi Sihan!"
Kangxi did not ask for advice again, but immediately made a decision.
However, Emperor Kangxi was in a bit of trouble when it came to leading the troops... It seemed that he had no good generals!
On the Manchu side, the old generals are really dying now. The old generals who followed the late emperor into the Pass either got smallpox and died early, or were killed by Dorgon, Azig, and Obai or were implicated in their deaths. . Even those who have survived smallpox and various factional disputes and are still alive today are mostly old.
Of course, it’s not like there are no Bao family members... There is also Prince Yue Le of Heshuoan who is very powerful. He followed Haoge and defeated Zhang Xianzhong. In the tenth year of Shunzhi, he also served as General Xuanwei. He went to fight the Khalkha Mongols, and he was not old either. He was only in his forties this year, so he was not fifty anyway.
But Emperor Kangxi can't use him yet!
The reason is very simple. When Shunzhi was about to "die", he didn't know which tendon was wrong. He actually thought that Xuan Ye, who was only eight years old, looked stupid and not like a wise king, so he wanted to let Yue Le Be the emperor!
Although this matter was discussed, it was over, but after Emperor Kangxi ascended the throne, Yue Le had no choice but to leave.
It’s not that it must not be used, but it cannot be used unless absolutely necessary.
Now there is only Prince Zhu San, who is entrenched in the four counties of Chaozhou. It is not Wu Sangui who has rebelled, so there is no need for Yue Le to come out.
Moreover, Yue Le would not be able to help Mi Sihan when he came out of the mountain. Instead, he would have to take charge of the military affairs of Guangdong and Fujian instead of Mi Sihan.
"A thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find," Emperor Kangxi said eloquently, "Who can assist Mi Sihan in commanding these five thousand green battalions?"
"Your Majesty," the one who made the suggestion was University Scholar Tu Hai, "I recommend Sun Sike, the Commander-in-Chief of Gansu Province."
Sun Sike is a slave of the Han Army's Zhengbai Banner, and his father is the famous traitor Sun Degong!
Guangning City was sold by his father. Among the slaves of the Han army in the Qing Dynasty, his father Sun Degong and Li Yongfang were the highest. But now these two are no longer here, so Sun Sike is now one of the highest-ranking slaves in the Qing and Han armies. He is basically the same generation as An Da Gongshang Zhixin.
Moreover, Shang Zhixin's slaves were forcibly brought up by Emperor Shunzhi, and this Sun Sike was the real elder among the slaves - his father was a good slave of Nurhachi, and he was a slave of Huang Taiji!
In addition, Sun Sike, the elder among slaves, is also a capable slave! In his early years, he followed Hong Chengchou to attack Yunnan and Guizhou and made many military exploits. After serving as the commander-in-chief of Gansu Province in the second year of Kangxi's reign, he did not complain about hardships and tiredness. Instead, he worked diligently as a slave, took things seriously, and took the lead in fighting. In the past eight or nine years, he has made a lot of contributions. It’s time for him to improve!
That's why Tu Hai recommended Sun Sike to go to Guangdong... With his servants and merits, he didn't become a deputy general or a general in Guangdong. He should be the admiral of Guangdong, and even the governor of Guangdong and Guangdong. !
But Emperor Kangxi, the Little Holy Lord, shook his head, "It's not the time yet... The trouble in Guangdong must be directed at Shang Kexi and Pingnan Palace. Sun Sike is a general of our banner people and cannot be sent out so early. .
It is enough for the assistant assigned by the imperial court to have the rank of deputy general. Do you have any suitable candidates? If you have any, you can recommend them to me. If your recommendation is not good, I won’t blame you. "
"Your Majesty, this servant recommends someone who can definitely restrain that Prince Zhu who looks like Guan Gong!"
As soon as Emperor Kangxi finished speaking, he saw the great scholar of Wenhua Palace standing up to Kaner and the old man.
When Kaner walked into the south study room today, his heart was filled with worry - it was all He Shen who had caused him harm!
Because he is also a Niu Gulu family! Although he couldn't remember who in the clan was named Heshen, but just because he couldn't remember it didn't mean he didn't exist! Don't look back to find out that He Shen is quite close to him. This would be terrible!
Fortunately, Emperor Kangxi didn't even mention Heshen, and he also granted worldly titles to Obai and Mulima. It seems that he will not continue to pursue them.
But I still feel uneasy about the old man, for fear of falling out of favor! If you are used to being a high official, how can you be willing to go home and eat old rice? So he took the opportunity to recommend talents and test Emperor Kangxi's attitude.
"To Kana, who do you want to recommend?" Kangxi's tone was gentle, and he didn't seem to blame him at all.
"Your Majesty, I would like to recommend Wu Sanwei, the general of the Ganzhou city defense camp, to go south to help Mi Sihan."
"Wu Sanwei?" Emperor Kangxi had already thought of this man.
This guy was the top martial arts champion in the third year of Kangxi's reign... He was the best in the world in martial arts!
After winning the first prize in martial arts, Wu Sanwei worked as a bodyguard for Emperor Kangxi for two years. In the fifth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, he was sent by Ao Bai to Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province to serve as a general for five or six years... .. He did a pretty good job and wiped out several groups of bandits under the banner of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty. He should have been promoted to deputy general.
But Emperor Kangxi felt that his reputation was not good, and he looked like Wu Sangui's brothers...all of the "third generation", so he let him continue to defend the city in Ganzhou.
I didn't expect that this guy would recommend him to Kana today.
Emperor Kangxi did not reject it immediately, but asked: "Is this Wu Sanwei good at fighting?"
"If you tell me back to the emperor, he is the number one martial artist, so of course he can fight." He said with a smile to Kana, "This man is brave and good at fighting, and he has a mighty appearance. He has a black face, ring eyes, and a curly beard. He is good at using a snake spear that is eight feet long. A man who is unworthy of courage is nicknamed "Zhang Fei" in the army."
"Compete against Zhang Fei?" Emperor Kangxi also remembered the appearance of Wu Sanwei at this time. He did look a bit like Zhang Fei!
Thinking of this, he nodded and said with a smile: "The third prince Zhu looks like Guan Gong, so I will send Sai Zhangfei to meet him! Let him be... Mi Sihan's imperial envoy and supervising military affairs minister The yamen's army guard and deputy general!"
When he saw that Emperor Kangxi promoted "Sai Zhang Fei" whom he recommended, he felt relieved... Of course, He Shen still had to be found as soon as possible! If you can't find him personally, you have to find his family!
As soon as he thought of this, Suo'etu had already walked in quickly, knelt down to Emperor Kangxi, and then said: "Your Majesty, Wu Yingxiong has been brought here."
Kangxi said with a smile: "Let's all disperse... By the way, Xiong Cilu and Xue Zhang, you two will stay for a while. Suo'etu, go and call Wu Yingxiong and that Mr. Lu in together."
"嗻!"
