Chapter 1301 The battle between the government and the courtyard
The atmosphere in the hall seemed to solidify.
With Wen Yanbo's series of guilt, the round table was suddenly full of tension.
The emperor reached out and picked up the teacup. The newly brewed red robe exuded a refreshing fragrance.
The Minister of War, Qin Qiong, couldn't help but question, "Since Cheng Yaojin followed His Majesty, he has made countless achievements in every battle. Previously, he led Tiele and other troops to break the Shokui and pacify the Western Regions. After that, he was in charge of Anxi, protecting the surrender of the Western Regions and ensuring the smooth flow of the Silk Road."
"This time, the Prince of Kucha robbed the Silk Road, and Monk Xu sent troops to capture it. A large army rebellion broke out in Kucha. Cheng Yaojin was urgently in power and was able to mobilize troops to quell the chaos, but there was no mistake."
Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin have a good relationship, but now he is standing up to speak for him is not just a private relationship.
When soldiers are leading troops outside, they must have the privilege of using troops in an emergency.
"Isn't it a crime for Cheng Yaojin to destroy the country and kill more than 300,000 people in Anxi? Isn't it a crime for him to rob soldiers?" Wen Yanbo asked.
"Although Cheng Yaojin killed the rebel rat Nishi, he did not withdraw a penny or a sheep."
Wen Yanbo refused to let it go like this, "I didn't withdraw a penny, but it couldn't change the fact that others slaughtered blood and killed people, or the fact that he slaughtered the city and destroyed the country. More than 300,000 people, without asking the court, directly slaughtered Guang, and was arrogant! He was guilty!"
The originally quiet hall was echoed by the sound of Wen Yanbo's sudden rise.
Zhang Xutuo from the Privy Council also spoke out.
"According to the facts, Monk Xu captured the Prince of Kucha. Although he went beyond the defense zone, the Prince of Kucha was serious. He rushed to the cavalry camp out of boundary to capture the enemy, and he was not responsible. The first mistake was the Prince of Kucha, who was bold and arrogant to rob us of the Silk Road Qin Shang, and the second mistake was the general of Kucha, and the mistake was that Kucha had the first mistake, but he still dared to raise an army to intercept and attack our Qin army. This was a battle undeclared! Monk Xu fought back from then on, which was reasonable and there was no problem."
Another Grand Secretary Yu Shinan joined the battle group, "The Anxi Army is used to being domineering. Monk Xu is good at Yue Defense Zone. When he commanded the cavalry camp without asking for instructions, he not only directly mobilized the entire patrol camp, but even summoned the city to the Fanzi, the patrol children, and the military militia, and directly summoned 3,000 people, ran to Dunduo City with a swagger. Not only did he cross the border to capture the prince of Kucha, he also massacred the Dunduo City, and several thousand people."
"Monk Xu crossed the border, was good at transferring and massacres the city. The same was true for Cheng Yaojin. As soon as he was in the West, he dared to pass the military orders to Hexi, Qinghai, and Yili, and he dared to transfer the Turks to the marquis. He did not ask the court for instructions, and transferred several tens of thousands of troops. Who gave him the power? Where is the tiger talisman? What about the transfer order?"
"They have any other solutions. If they want to catch the Prince of Kucha, do they have to cross the line and force it to be arrested like this? Even if they cross the line and force it to be arrested, can't they ask the court first? After arresting people, do they have to massacre the city?"
"They just deliberately provoke the battle and then gain military merits!"
Song Laosheng, deputy envoy of Privy Councillor, said, "How did you deliberately provoke border wars to achieve military merits? The Anxi frontline is not much more complicated than the innermost part of the Central Plains. Therefore, the court used the governor and prefect and served as the prefect as the military general, so that they could have the greatest advantage in the event of emergencies and could react quickly. Cheng Yaojin and Monk Xu and others responded quickly, and it was clear that the court's system allowed. This time, Anxi counterattack was very beautiful and quickly annihilated the rebellion. If everything was as the Grand Secretary said, and asked the court for instructions, it would take more than 8,000 miles apart, and one round trip would take half a month on the way, and all the fighters were delayed. Could it be better to delay the matter?"
Feng Deyi, the censor of the Censorate, finally ended up.
He impeached Cheng Yaojin, Monk Xu and other Anxi generals with dozens of charges, which were more than Wen Yanbo mentioned before, and each charge he mentioned had a basis and source, such as being good at dispatching troops, going out of defense and crossing the border, etc.
Several major yamen were quarreling.
However, the emperor can still drink tea leisurely. For the emperor, if the ministers below are all harmonious, it is quite dangerous, and the emperor will be extremely likely to be undermined.
If you have a different opinion, this is what you think about the matter.
He allowed different opinions, as long as he could reach an agreement in the end, it would be fine. If he could not reach it, he would be able to accept obedience.
He just looked at Zhang Yichen and Feng Deyi from the bottom of his eyes.
Feng Deyi was the deputy of the Censorate, and Zhang Yichen was the chief official, but now Zhang Yichen has not made any statement, Feng Deyi responded quickly.
In addition, the secret letter from Feng Deyi before said that the Censor Zhang Yichen and the Minister of War Ping Zhang Shi Qin Qiong were son-in-law and son-in-law, so he should avoid suspicion. The father-in-law should not be regarded as an official in supervising the son-in-law.
This obviously means that Zhang Yichen should avoid suspicion and be the chief of the Censorate.
The minister of the Zuo Zhongshu Hou Mo Chenyi stared at Feng Deyi.
"If Feng Zhongcheng, if everything is followed by the laws and regulations, there is no need to hold the imperial meeting of Xuanzheng Hall today. The Anxi Army has made contributions to quelling the rebellion. Now you have to focus on those rules and regulations to ask for crimes. Wouldn't it be a shame to the hearts of heroes? The soldiers on the front line are still waiting for rewards. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there is no result yet, but you still want to punish people?"
"I am the chief censor of the Censorate. The Censorate is responsible for supervising all officials and correcting violations of discipline. The Anxi Army is guilty. I should point out the impeachment, otherwise it would be my dereliction of duty." Feng Deyi refused to give in at all.
"Don't you know that the front line leads troops to fight, sometimes you need to follow the power of the important matters? You have the scriptures and power. Those who have the scriptures are constant; those who have the power are changeable. Those who have the scriptures and power cannot be neglected!"
The debate over the merits and demerits of the Anxi Army in this war was actually the final argument for the attitude towards the martial arts group.
The civil officials headed by the Hanlin Academy and the censors of the Censorate, their collective impeachment of the Anxi Army General this time was because they were dissatisfied with the increasingly high-ranking military group of the court.
The Privy Council naturally supports military personnel. Half of the political affairs halls are prime ministers who are military generals, and naturally they also support the legitimate rights and interests of military personnel.
The emperor finally put down the teacup at this time.
The teacup made a very slight sound on the table, but the ministers immediately stopped and looked at the emperor.
Luo Cheng smiled.
"The Chinese New Year is coming soon. If you have any objections, don't be so angry. First of all, I will ask a few questions. The battle in the Western Regions is a great victory, a battle to promote our country's power and suppress a small boy. It should be affirmed."
As soon as the emperor said this, it was undoubtedly about setting the tone.
"Not to mention the controversial Cheng Yaojin and Monk Xu, I will first talk about the Anxi soldiers, the soldiers of the Second Cavalry Tour, the Turkic soldiers from the two counties of Wulei, Nishi, and the princes in Yili's fiefdoms. They are all loyal to the king's affairs and sent troops to quell the rebellion, and have made contributions!"
The word "merit" is very direct.
"If you have merits, you should reward them. The Ministry of War is responsible for military affairs. The promotion and promotion of these military personnel below the fifth rank will be subject to the Ministry of War. Therefore, this time, the Ministry of War should check the merits and achievements of soldiers as soon as possible and give a merit assessment. Those who deserve to be awarded the merits and award the merits and promotions. The Ministry of Civil Affairs will immediately receive the merit rewards as soon as this evaluation is made. The Ministry of Personnel will be responsible for the promotion of officers above the fifth rank, and you will also evaluate and implement them as soon as possible."
The emperor divided the matter a few words. The only ones to be controversial were Cheng Yaojin, Monk Xu and others. They did not care about the matters of the soldiers and generals below. The soldiers and generals made contributions.
If you should increase, you should increase; if you should reward, you should reward, and you should not delay any further.
