Liao Wenguang understood in his heart.
It is impossible for Liu Tie, the general soldier, to continue to stay in Datong. In all likelihood, he will be sent to Liaodong or to the south. Otherwise, Liu Tie will continue to stay in Datong. Liu Tie, who has a heavy army, can still dominate Datong without any People can be cured.
"What? You haven't thought about it yet? Still can't say it?" Liu Heng chuckled.
Liao Wenguang looked hesitant.
Naturally, it was not something that he could decide as a political envoy and councillor. However, as long as the other party accepted the idea of recruiting, it would be a good thing.
He thought for a while and said: "No matter where you go as a general soldier, you will be at ease. You don't have to worry about the imperial army coming to suppress you. The most important thing is that General Liu may not have a wife in the future. This is the envy of others." Not coming."
"Don't be too pretentious, let's be practical. Just tell me where you want me to be the commander-in-chief?" Liu Heng asked bluntly.
After hearing this, Liao Wenguang cursed in his heart, but said: "As long as General Liu is willing to accept the recruitment, it is not out of the question where he can serve as the commander-in-chief. Maybe he will have the opportunity to go to a flowery place like Jiangnan to do it." The general army is a hundred times stronger than a bitter and cold place like Datong."
"Xuan Da is in my hands. Which place in the south do you think has a comparable general, or do you think you are going to let me go to the south to be the governor of a place." Liu Heng said with a smile.
There are two general soldiers in one Shanxi province.
One in Taiyuan Prefecture, one in Datong Prefecture, and one in Xuanfu Prefecture.
Xuanda has two more generals, two governors and a governor. Now that the Tiger Character Banner occupies Xuanda, Liu Heng is already the de facto governor of Xuanda.
Liao Wenguang laughed and said: "General Liu has never been to Jiangnan."
Liu Heng nodded with a smile.
He has indeed never been to Jiangnan in his life.
Just listen to Liao Wenguang continue to say: "Jiangnan is a good place. Literati and poets have been here since ancient times, and there are countless good works. I wish I could go to Jiangnan to be the county magistrate, drink by the lake every day, and appreciate the pink and green willows flowing over the small bridge. There are also the colorful flowers and colorful shadows in the boat, General Liu doesn't want to experience such a picturesque scene?"
"I'm a rough person and I can't enjoy the poetry and paintings of Jiangnan that Councilor Liao said, and I can't stand the beautiful women eroding my bones. Besides, I think Xuanda University is pretty good. I can live in peace and quiet on the territory I conquered." Liu Heng said with a smile.
Liao Wenguang frowned slightly and said, "So General Liu only plans to stay in Xuanda University?"
"I think Xuanda is pretty good."
"General Liu should know in his heart that it is impossible for the imperial court to appoint you as the governor of Xuanda. Even if you stay in Xuanda, you can only be a general soldier at most."
"Governor Xuanda is just a title. It doesn't matter to me whether he has it or not. I don't care about it at all."
Liao Wenguang understood that Liu Heng was determined to stay in Xuanda.
This shows that even if Liu Heng accepts the recruitment, he will still be the local emperor here in Xuanda.
"If Counselor Liao can't make the decision, you can go back and discuss it with the person who can make the decision. It's best to let the person who makes the decision come to Datong Town. This will save Senator Liao the trouble of running in both directions." Liu Heng picked up the tureen at hand and blew in the hot air inside. , put it to your mouth and sip gently.
The Tiger-Character Banner is located in Xuanda and other places. There are no less than 50,000 troops in Xuanfu and Datong alone. One of the armies is directly approaching Juyong Pass and can break through the pass and go south to attack Shuntian Prefecture at any time.
Therefore, he knew that if he wanted to recruit the tiger-character flag, it was definitely not something that a councilor of the Provincial Envoy could make a decision. At the very least, it would require someone like the governor-general. The idea of recruiting troops even came directly from the capital.
Liao Wenguang was unwilling to give up and still persuaded: "If you have the opportunity to go to Jiangnan, why would General Liu stick to a bitter and cold place like Xuanda? People all their lives just want to keep their wives and shadows. Now that there is such an opportunity, Liu Why should the general risk beheading his head to confront the imperial court?"
"Drink tea, drink tea." Liu Heng motioned to Liao Wenguang to drink tea, but did not answer his question.
Liao Wenguang was anxious in his heart, but he still picked up the tureen at hand.
If Liu Heng can be persuaded to accept the position of commander-in-chief and give up Xuanda and other places, with this credit, he may not be able to make further progress after returning.
The Councilor of the Provincial Envoy and Chief Envoy looks good, but there are also the Councilor and Chief Envoy of the Proclamation and Administrative Envoy above, and there are also high-ranking officials like the Governor.
And he is not the only one who has promised to be the Councilor of the Provincial Envoy, there is also another Right Councilor.
In Taiyuan Prefecture, his role as a councilor was nothing, and the power in his hands was not as good as that of a prefect.
He brought the tureen to his mouth, but before he could drink it, he took it away again, looked at Liu Heng and said, "Since General Liu is here to see me, I don't think he would object to the recruitment. If you have any requests, why don't you just tell me?"
Not wanting to beat around the bush, he wanted to know what the conditions were for Liu Heng to accept the recruitment.
Liu Heng put down the bowl in his hand and said with a smile: "There are no conditions, only two requirements. As long as the court can agree, Tiger Character Flag will immediately accept the court's recruitment."
"General, please speak!"
"First, neither Hu Ziqi nor I will leave Xuanda. Second, the imperial court does not allow officials and garrison troops to come to Xuanda."
"This is impossible."
After hearing these two requests, Liao Wenguang's expression changed on the spot.
He knew that it was impossible for the court to agree to these two requests, because once agreed, it would be equivalent to ceding Xuanda from the territory of the Ming Dynasty, which had never happened in the Ming Dynasty.
Even in Liaodong, they were all forcibly occupied by slave thieves, and Ming Dynasty never recognized it.
If Xuanda was to be ceded to Liu Heng, he, the political envoy and counselor who came to Datong Town to recruit people, would be infamy for thousands of years. Not to mention being promoted, he might not even be able to keep his current position.
"Senior Liao, don't get excited." Liu Heng comforted Liao Wenguang in a soft voice, and then said, "Even if the court does not agree, I will still be in the hands of the tiger banner, and the conditions I mentioned are not at all What condition is it? It’s just a statement of fact. I don’t think Senator Liao doesn’t understand this truth.”
"Impossible, the imperial court will never cede Xuanda University." Liao Wenguang shook his head vigorously. He could not imagine how much of a sensation it would cause in Datong if Xuanda University was really ceded.
Hearing this, Liu Heng laughed and said: "Consultant Liao was wrong. No one has ceded the land of Ming Dynasty. Xuanda is still Xuanda of Ming Dynasty. Even I am also a minister of Ming Dynasty."
"No, this is different." Liao Wenguang shook his head.
Even if Liu Heng is openly a minister of the Ming Dynasty, and Xuanda is also the territory of the Ming Dynasty, if he really agrees to Liu Heng's conditions, Xuanda will become a de facto cession to Liu Heng.
Liu Heng picked up the tureen again, put it to his mouth, blew on it, and said: "Xuan Da is already in my hands. If the court has the ability to take it back, I don't think they will send you to me."
"The imperial court has hundreds of thousands of troops in Liaodong. General Liu thinks he can stop them?" Liao Wenguang said threateningly.
