In the early Ming Dynasty, the positions of governor of Liaodong and commander-in-chief of Liaodong were almost not changed for decades because the situation he faced was different from that in the mainland.
Due to the complicated relations between various ethnic groups, the governor has to deal with a series of affairs involving Mongolia and women.
But the general soldier must be prepared to fight frequently and win more than he loses.
If the governor and commander-in-chief make no serious mistakes, the court will not change them easily.
But in the late Ming Dynasty, the battle in the court became fierce, and the land of Liaodong became particularly important, resulting in the farce of eight commanders in ten years.
In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, in order to firmly secure the position of Liaodong Commander-in-Chief, there must be someone in the court, which also led to its uncontrollability over the Jianzhou forces.
Li Chengliang and Qi Jiguang stayed in Liaodong for decades relatively smoothly because the court system of the Longqing Dynasty was relatively stable and there was a big tree like Zhang Juzheng behind them.
Zhang Juzheng fell and Qi Jiguang also fell. Li Chengliang's son Li Rusong was deeply loved by Emperor Shenzong and could be said to be the number one general.
Historically, the evaluation of his father and son was very bad.
Raising bandits turned into raising tigers.
Nurhaci was raised by the support of father and son.
But this is not all the factors. The most important of the many factors is that the Ming Dynasty has been in chaos, and the defenders of Liaodong can no longer focus all their attention on dealing with the Jianzhou Jurchens. They still have to protect themselves.
When Liaodong was just recovered during the Hongwu period, Emperor Hongwu set up the Liaodu Guards, which took charge of the Liaodong guards and horses. He advanced step by step to eliminate the remaining Mongolian and Yuan forces. He set up in Liaoyang, Shenyang, Guangning, Jinzhou, Haizhou, etc. Guards and builds cities.
The early guard system was coordinated with the farming system. Almost all the people had the identity of military households. They farmed the land in their spare time and took up weapons to fight when they were on guard. It was indeed able to suppress the foreign races at the beginning.
Since the Xuande period, the military household system has been unable to meet the deteriorating situation. Especially in recent years, the corresponding rise of the Mongolian ministries has begun. From the first year of Zhengtong, the Ming Dynasty began to build border forts and city walls in Liaodong, establishing a gateway from Shanhaiguan to Guangning. , Liaoyang, and Shenyang's military reporting stations began to integrate Liaodong's defense system.
Liaoyang is the commander-in-chief of the Liaodong capital, and is the residence of the deputy commander-in-chief of Liaodong.
Guangning is the governor's office and the headquarters of the general army.
At first, Liaodong Capital Commander Shi Si was the highest command place for the military towns established in Liaodong. However, since Liaodong's position has become more and more important, Liaodong is no longer a simple military town. People's livelihood yamen have begun to be established, and governors and general soldiers have It replaced most of the power of the Liaodong capital commander. At the beginning of its establishment, there were thirty military guards, more than one hundred thousand household guards, more than one thousand hundred household guards, and more than three hundred Jisi guards.
What is Jisi Guardhouse?
"Historical Records: Biography of Sima Xiangru": "Restraint refers to a horse's head; 縻 refers to an ox and an earthworm."
This is a way of ruling by the Han dynasty over ethnic minorities. The native official system in Yunnan and Annan is also of the same nature as Jisi Guards.
These more than 300 Jisi Guards are the administrative divisions established by the Ming Dynasty for the Jurchens. Usually, most of these guards are tribal leaders appointed by the court as commanders, with official positions such as Thousand Households, Hundred Households, etc., and are equipped with official seals. Hereditary, no taxes are levied, but tribute is paid annually.
At the beginning of every spring, the commanders of these guard posts, Qian Hu, and others would go to the capital to pay tribute, then kowtow three times to the dragon chair that no one was sitting on, and then go back to receive their rewards.
The most famous among these guards is Jianzhou Guard.
It was also the famous Jianzhou Jurchen in the future. His power during the Zhengtong years was already very powerful.
Jurchen origins are very broad.
The earliest traceable origin is Su Shen. The imperial history of the Qing Dynasty records that Su Shen sent people to congratulate the King of Zhou after King Wu successfully defeated Zhou. They originated from Changbai Mountain.
During the Tang Dynasty, a country called Bohai State was established, but it was destroyed by the powerful Khitan, and then all of them were moved to Liaodong. At that time, they were divided into two Jurchen tribes.
In the last years of the Liao Kingdom, the Jurchen Wanyan tribe in the Songhua River Basin rose to prominence, and the following story is about the establishment of the Jin Empire.
After a brief period of glory, it was destroyed by Genghis Khan.
But at that time, the Jurchens had spread all over Liaodong, and the Jurchens who entered the pass had long forgotten their lineage.
After the Ming army defeated the Meng Yuan Dynasty, they marched into Liaodong in large numbers.
The Jurchens have ushered in a new master.
In fact, the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty did not follow Wanyan Agu, but migrated from North Korea after the Ming army entered Liaodong. Among them was a very powerful tribe led by the ancestors of Aixinjueluo.
At first, the Jurchens were very loyal to the Ming Dynasty. According to Qing history, the direct ancestor Mengge Timur paid tribute to Emperor Yongle eight times and was allowed to lead 600 tribesmen and more than 3,000 women and children. He returned to Huining and farmed. , hunting around.
In addition, Meng brother Timur also led his tribe to follow Zhu Di in conquering Mongolia. Later, during the Yangmu Awu Incident, Meng brother Timur was killed, his son Dongshan {Tongcang} was captured, and his younger brother Fancha fled and became Dong. After Shan escaped through hardships, he found that his uncle Fancha had gone to Beijing to pay homage to Zhu Zhanji, and obtained a new seal, becoming the commander of Jianzhou Jurchen.
But Dong Shan still had the old seal left by his father in his hand. For a while, Dong Shan and Fan Chaxiu were fighting over the old seal. Zhu Zhanji began to separate the Jurchen family of Jianzhou and the Jurchen family on the basis of Jianzhou Wei. For the two guards on the left and right, Fancha succeeded the commander of the right guard of Jianzhou, Dongshan succeeded the commander of the left guard of Jianzhou, and the commander of the Jianzhou guard. The commander was Li Manzhu. This was also the origin of the three guards of Jianzhou, and was also later led by Nurhachi. core group.
Dong Shan is different from his father and has changed his attitude towards Ming Dynasty.
When he was also harassing the border area, Dong Shan attacked Shenyang.
In Liaoyang, Ye Xian was defeated. Dong Shanshan reported that he was coerced by the Mongols. However, the Ming Dynasty had just ended the defense of Beijing and did not hold him accountable.
But there are still small frictions.
Who is Dong Shan?
Aixinjueluo*Dong Shan is relatively easy to understand.
He is the fifth generation ancestor of Nurhachi.
Nurhaci’s father’s name is Takshi, Takshi’s father’s name is Juechang’an, Juechang’an’s father’s name is Fuman, and Fuman’s father is Dong Shan’s youngest son Xibao Qipenggu. . M.biQuge.biZ
In the real history, Dong Shan made a series of tricks and teased the Ming Dynasty from time to time. In the third year of Chenghua, Zhu Jianshen couldn't bear it anymore, but there were still two groups of forces in the court, one was for war and the other was for peace. The great eunuch Wang Zhi took the lead in the battle, which Zhu Jianshen liked very much.
Wang Zhi went to Liaodong and became a eunuch to supervise the army, and he also became the most capable eunuch in the Ming Dynasty. With the cooperation of North Korea, Chenghua Liting was determined to destroy his lair and eliminate his species.
The saying that the Han Dynasty looked at his relatives and the Ming Dynasty looked at the eunuchs also extended from Wang Zhi.
Why is Dong Shan not afraid of death to offend the Ming Dynasty? In one word, poor.
Once the year is bad and an accident occurs, hundreds or thousands of people will die. To the north are the mortal enemies of the Barbarian Jurchens. Although they are poorer, they still have a mouth to eat, while the Barbarian Jurchens can't even drink soup. Life at that time was even worse than mine. It would be better if they didn't come to rob us. And to the west is Mongolia. Mongolia is a better fighter than we are. If we rob them, we might have to answer for the three ounces of meat we have. .
So their goal is Ming Dynasty and North Korea.
The most prosperous Ming Dynasty also became the primary goal.
Outside Guangning City.
As the night grew dark, Shi Biao looked at his uncle and said, "Is nothing going to happen to Sundu Yushi? We will all stay here for the whole day."
Shi Heng was in a state of confusion and was uncertain, but he still showed no mercy when he scolded his nephew.
"What can happen? We are standing in the land of the Ming Dynasty. Who dares to tamper with the imperial censor who delivers the decree? The nine tribes don't want it anymore. I tell you that you are not the same outside as you are at home. You can't keep your mouth shut. Otherwise next time I won’t take you out.”
After finishing speaking, Shi Heng also frowned and muttered in a low voice: "That's not right, it takes so long to deliver a decree. This, this should be back."
"Uncle, why don't we go to the city? It's too cold in Liaodong at night. Our elders can bear it, but this kid can't." Shi Biao said, looking at the man who was sleeping on the rocks. boy.
The cloak he was wearing belonged to Shi Heng.
"Give us the order to set up camp on the spot. The censor of Sundu has said that he will make arrangements after he comes back to join us. They scholars know how to cater to the will of the Holy Spirit and how to be officials. You are right to listen to him."
Shi Biao looked troubled: "Our tent can't withstand the cold."
"Then let the brothers huddle together. They will keep you warm. Hurry up and do it. Don't force me to kick you."
After hearing this, Shi Biao sighed. He still suspected that Sun Xiang was a popular drinker in Guangning City. Maybe he drank too much now and fell asleep, so he had long forgotten that he was the 100th person.
Shi Biao thought well. Sun Xiang really drank too much and fell asleep. He also had a dream...
Little does he know that in the cold Liaodong, the brothers who came with him to Liaodong are still suffering from the cold in the south of the city...
Capital, in the Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Jianshen looked at the Liaodong survey catalog that Zhang Bao got from him.
He could clearly see the locations of the three Jianzhou guards divided by the imperial court, and he could also see the locations of other Jisi guards.
But at this time, the accuracy of this map is difficult to measure.
Zhang Bao only found three, one was from the twelfth year of Yongle, one was from the first year of Xuande, and one was from the sixth year of Xuande. This proved that since the Xuande dynasty, his father had never been in power during his reign. No one has been sent to check the distribution of guard posts in Liaodong and the Jurchen tribe.
Watching Zhu Jianshen lying on the map and looking at it in detail.
Zhang Bao, who was standing aside, said softly: "Your Majesty, do you understand?"
Zhu Jianshen glanced at Zhang Bao, who was he looking down on? Qiu Begonia Ye Tu was the dream in his heart in his previous life.
You can draw it with your eyes closed. If you look at a small survey map of Liaodong, it's not something you can grasp at your fingertips.
Of course, Zhu Jianshen's goal is not just a picture of autumn leaves and begonias, his goal is the stars and the sea...
"Zhang Daban, do you think I am too old and have lost a lot of children's fun?" Zhu Jianshen put down the map and sat on the dragon chair.
"Slave, do you think His Majesty cannot be described as mature?"
"What should I use to describe it?"
"Your Majesty's proud son must be different from others. It is more appropriate to describe him as brave and agile."
"Does Xu Youzhen have another memorial?" Since the Qianqing Palace memorial, Xu Youzhen has been writing two memorials a day, all in an attempt to establish a deeper revolutionary friendship with the little emperor.
Zhu Jianshen approved every letter, and the two of them became close friends.
"Yes, your majesty, Xu Youzhen asked your majesty to come to the Huagai Hall to give a banquet in person on the first day of this year. I also want your majesty to come out of the palace to see the spring festival." Zhang Bao said quickly.
"Xu Youzhen's memorial, how did the cabinet vote?"
"This letter does not contain the opinion of the cabinet. According to Li Fuchen, it is for your Majesty's Holy Judgment." Zhang Bao continued.
Another year has passed, the first day of the lunar calendar is the Lunar New Year, and welcoming the spring is also a ceremony to welcome the spring. "Welcome to the Spring" outside the East Zhimen of Beijing. Nobles, ministers, senior officials, and the emperor can all come to welcome the spring.
Zhu Jianshen thought for a while: "The Huagai Palace is giving me a banquet. I can participate. It's not necessary to welcome the Spring Festival. It's always troublesome for me to go out of the palace. I bother the people and spend money in vain. Just like in previous years, Duke Cheng will do it for me." Stop it."
Who has ever seen a little emperor who doesn't like to play? I, Lao Zhang, have seen...
