Zhang Jing’s anger was all within Zhu Pingan’s expectations, as Zhang Jing’s character was notoriously rigid.
However, the angrier Zhang Jing got, the deeper his impression memory would be, and the better that effect would be.
So seeing Zhang Jing angry, Zhu Pingan was not only not nervous, but was instead somewhat excited.
“Lord Zhang is overstating the case, how would my humble servant seek pleasure from Your Excellency, and how would I dare to amuse Lord Zhang.” Zhu Pingan shook his head vigorously, looked at Zhang Jing, who was clearly showing a huffy look, and explained earnestly, “My humble servant is truly congratulating Your Excellency and wishing Your Excellency good luck.”
Again!
You kid really thinks that I, Zhang Jing, am a clay Bodhisattva with no fire! Zhang Jing’s face pulled even longer!
“This official has been dismissed from his post, and for you to come and congratulate me, Lord Zhu, is this not still an amusement to me, Zhang Ren Ren?!”
Zhang Jing looked at Zhu Pingan with a cold face, his eyes seemed to be bursting with sparks, and his words carried a fire that he could not suppress.
“Please calm your anger, Your Excellency, there’s nothing to do around here, so why don’t you listen to my explanation.” Zhu Pingan smiled and said softly.
“Hmph, I’ll see how you can weasel your way out of this.” Zhang Jing grunted, indeed there was nothing to do, everyone at the table was busy toasting Chen Hong and the others, he was ignored like air, there was no harm in listening to this kid.
“Does lord Zhang still remember that more than a month ago, my humble servant went to the Ministry of War to visit his lordship, flipping through the detailed dossier of the Japanese invasion at that time, his lordship inquired about my views on the Japanese invasion today, and asked me about my plan to exterminate the Japanese invasion, why is it my first priority?”
Zhu Pingan put down his wine glass and asked softly.
Zhang Jing heard Zhu Pingan’s question, his thoughts could not help but be guided back to more than a month ago ……
“Can your regiment see a battle nowadays? ” “Back to
the Lord, under the command of my official Zhejun only trained for more than half a month, only the army prototype, has not yet become an army, the combat power is limited, it is difficult to survey a battle …… In spite of this, but the next official with his life guarantee, Zhejian army have called must return, there is a war must answer, sworn to die to complete the mission! ”
Think of this, Zhang Jing’s face is more unpleasant, at that time he also felt that this kid is very honest, is a simple and honest responsible person …… Now it seems, hum, is their own blind eyes! This kid’s name is ZiHou, actually not ZiHou.
Zhang Jing “hmph” a sound, thoughts continue to down, well, think of it, he asked him to destroy the Japanese plan, the first priority why?
This question, he also asked Hu Zongwan, Hu Zongwan’s answer is very pragmatic, the deployment of troops.
This kid’s answer is different from Hu Zongxian, he answered the unity of command, huh, but also said that the only way to appoint a Governor, but also said that the Governor of Zhejiang is not enough to appoint the Governor of Jiangnan, giving the Governor of the military and financial power ……
Hmph, at that time, I thought this kid is too young, too whimsical, too unreliable!
Now it seems that, as expected, this kid is really unreliable!
However, what does this matter have to do with today’s matter, is this kid trying to change the subject?!
“So what if I still remember, what does this matter have to do with you amusing old me?!” Zhang Jing said unpleasantly.
“Sir, at that time, my official replied that the first priority of eradicating the Japanese is to unify the command, and to do so it is necessary to set up a governor to oversee the military affairs and finances of all provinces in Jiangnan. Today, a little more than a hundred Japanese landed from Shangyu, across Zhejiang, South Zhili thousands of miles, breaking the city destroyed countless doors, along the way, the local government to fight separately, all grey, heavy losses, so that fifty-seven Japanese ware Zhang domineering to attack the capital of Yingtian, so that my face of the Ming Dynasty lost face! His holiness, has determined the reward and punishment of officials around, must have seen around the respective fighting, dispersal of troops, command is not unified problem; now, Jiangnan increasingly serious Japanese, north to Shandong, south to the two guangzhou, qiongzhou, all in the scope of the Japanese attack, has become a threat to my great Ming dynasty of the heart of the great dangers, relying on a place is not able to fight against the Japanese attack, His holiness has seen the problem, will not be not solved the problem. Therefore, it is inevitable to establish an additional governor of Jiangnan.”
Zhu Pingan explained with a confident face.
“This is your wishful thinking.” Zhang Jing shook his head, “Jiangnan Governor, such a powerful position, would not be set up just by saying so.”
Zhu Pingan smiled slightly and continued, “My lord, this is not wishful thinking on the part of my humble servant. The next official seat teacher Xu step in a few days ago and the next official have letters to each other, Xu Shi in the letter in the letter Dao saint inquired about the problem of Japanese invaders in the south of the Yangtze River, Xu Shi has to the saint suggested to set up an additional minister of the Governor General, supervise the South Zhili, Zhejiang, Shandong, the two Guang Dongs, annexes and other six provinces of the military affairs, the release of the right to mobilise the troops to raise funds, cheaply, the unity of the command of the scheduling.”
“Heh, Pavilion Master Xu is bold enough.” Zhang Jing couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment at his words and commented.
“Hehe, His Holiness also said that Master Xu is bold, however, His Holiness also said that Master Xu is still not bold enough, and the pattern is not big enough, His Holiness has assigned Hubei and Guanghou to the Governor as well, and has granted the Governor Minister the right to make decisions on the spot, and whether it is troop movements or battles, they can all be acted on the cheap.” Zhu Pingan continued.
“Huh?” Zhang Jing was shocked when he heard this, he did not expect that His Holiness not only agreed to set up a Jiangnan Governor, but also expanded the jurisdiction of the Jiangnan Governor. Your Holiness, truly a great lord.
However, thinking that he was already dismissed from his position, Zhang Jing could not help but shake his head and said with a self-deprecating smile, “Even if a governor is established, so what, what does it have to do with me, I’m just a person who was dismissed from his position.”
“Your Excellency, if we talk about the familiarity and understanding of the Japanese infestation all over Jiangnan, and the familiarity and understanding of the military of the provinces in Jiangnan, who can compare to your Excellency who is the Secretary of the Ministry of Military Affairs in Yingtian? And adults have been the Governor of the two GuangZhou military affairs, pacify the Yao people rebellious rebellion, and then plan to appease the Annan country, and then after that pacify the SiEn nine land tribes and QiongZhou LiRiRi rebellious rebellion, familiar with the military affairs, rich experience, outstanding achievements; if set JiangNan Governor, the first candidate is not adults.”
Zhu Pingan broke his fingers and analysed Zhang Jing’s advantages one by one, and finally spoke out the conclusion with an affirmative face.
Hearing Zhu Pingan’s analysis, as if counting his own achievements, Zhang Jing’s dead-water eyes couldn’t help but ripple, but soon returned to silence, sighing forlornly, “So what if I am familiar with the Japanese invaders and the military in different parts of the country? What’s wrong with having made some insignificant achievements? Lord Zhu, don’t underestimate the heroes of the world, there are many people who are capable of serving as the Governor of Jiangnan. I, Zhang, am just a dismissed person, and the one who is least likely to be able to serve as the Governor of Jiangnan is me, Zhang.”
It was somewhat surprising that Zhu Pingan knew himself so well, and could be as familiar with his past and achievements as if he knew them by heart.
However, so what if he is familiar, so what if he seems to have analysed the situation in a reasonable manner, he has already been dismissed from his post ……
Although I have the intention to serve, but I have been dismissed ah, and then have the intention of what is the use, or go home to spend more time with his old wife.
“It is precisely because Your Excellency has been dismissed that my humble servant is more certain that the Governor of Jiangnan is Your Excellency!” Zhu Pingan said with a face of certainty.
It is precisely because I have been dismissed that I am more certain that the Governor of Jiangnan is me?!
When Zhang Jing heard this, he was stunned and couldn’t help but pull the corner of his mouth downwards, what the hell kind of logic is this!
I am not sure who can serve as the Governor of Jiangnan, but what I am sure of is never me, Zhang!
How can I, a dismissed person, serve as the Governor of Jiangnan anymore.
