    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1058

    "The governor of Beichuan Province was revoked, and he was detained in the capital to wait for disposal!"

    The rebel army suddenly swept across most of Beichuan Province, causing a large number of towns to fall into the hands of the rebel army.

    Emperor Long Jun was furious when he got the news, and immediately dismissed the post of Governor of Beichuan Province.

    The Far Eastern imperial court now not only has to fight fiercely with the rebels on the front line, but also fights with the Qinghe army.

    Whether it is the rebels or the Qinghe army, they are good stubble. The Far Eastern court has already fought on two fronts, and there are many difficulties.

    At this time, the fire in the backyard naturally made Long Jun very angry, because if the rear is unstable, it will definitely affect the front line.

    Now the areas that the Far Eastern imperial court can control are the western and southwestern regions, which are supported by soldiers, food and grass in these areas.

    If there are problems in these areas, they will immediately lose the supplies of food, grass and soldiers, and will not be able to maintain the current situation.

    It is precisely because of this that Lord Long decided to remove him from his post and bring him to justice to appease his anger when he learned that the rebel army in Beichuan Province was gaining momentum and the governor was not doing enough to suppress it.

    You must know that the governor of a province can be regarded as a great official in the frontier. At this critical moment, if it is said to be revoked, it will be revoked, and the impact will be quite huge.

    Removing a governor is a one-sentence matter, but the situation is constantly deteriorating, and the new governor still needs time to adapt.

    Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing originally wanted to advise Emperor Long Jun not to revoke the post of Governor of Beichuan Province, but to give him a chance to redeem himself.

    After all, it is a taboo for military strategists to change generals just before the battle. If you are not familiar with the situation, the new governor may not be better than the old governor.

    But in the end, when the words came to his lips, Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing swallowed them back into his stomach.

    That's because the current governor of Beichuan Province has always been unimpressed with Prime Minister Zuo, who stepped on him as a teacher, and even embarrassed the officials promoted by Yan Jing many times.

    Moreover, Yan Jing is also a person who likes to observe words and expressions. Seeing the emperor's anger, if he speaks for the Governor of Beichuan Province at this time, he will get burned instead.

    "My dear friends, who do you think will be the governor of Beichuan Province, who should take charge of the overall situation?"

    It is easy to revoke the Governor of Beichuan Province, but in the face of the rebel army in Beichuan Province, one person is urgently needed to deal with it.

    The stability of Beichuan Province is related to the overall situation. If it is not handled well, it will make the Far East court worse.

    "Your Majesty, Huang Zengming, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is talented and courageous, and he can be of great use."

    ?Sun Dong, Minister of Rites who has been crowned Prince Taibao, stood up and spoke.

    After Sun Dong, Minister of the Ministry of Rites and Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing overthrew Su Chong, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, his power also increased greatly. Now he concurrently holds more than a dozen prominent and important positions in the imperial court, which can be said to be a high position.

    Seeing Sun Dong recommending his own person to be the governor of Beichuan Province, Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing couldn't help but frowned.

    Sun Dong's power continued to rise, and he had already vaguely threatened him, the left prime minister.

    If someone from Sun Dong went to serve as the chief official of the frontier, it would be a great disadvantage to him.

    You know, Yan Jing regards the far east and west regions as the last refuge.

    Once the Far Eastern imperial court was unable to sustain themselves under the attack of the rebels and bandits, they could hide the emperor and retreat to the west, where they could live in a quiet corner and continue to live a luxurious life.

    If the Beichuan province is controlled by Sun Dong's people, it will be bad for him if the court moves westward in the future.

    Therefore, Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing decided to block the candidates proposed by Sun Dong, but to push his own people forward.

    "Your Majesty, extraordinary people should be used in extraordinary times. The situation in Beichuan Province is corrupt. I think a general who can fight the enemy should be appointed as the governor of Beichuan Province to stabilize the overall situation." Yan Jing also stood up and said.

    Yan Jing, Prime Minister Zuo, blocked all of Sun Dong's people as soon as he opened his mouth, because Sun Dong's people were all civil servants.

    But he is different. Not only civil servants but also military generals are attached to him, Prime Minister Zuo.

    After hearing the words of Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing, Emperor Long Jun nodded involuntarily, thinking that Yan Jing was still thinking carefully.

    At this time, what is needed is a general who can hold the scene to serve as the governor, so that the rebel army can be wiped out.

    And if you choose a powerless civil servant to serve as the governor, you don't understand military affairs, and you will make a mistake.

     "Your Majesty, civil and martial arts have different ways. It's okay for a general to charge forward, but it's not good enough to preside over the overall situation. Moreover, it is against the ancestral system to let the general be the governor of Beichuan Province."

    Sun Dong continued: "I think it is appropriate to let Huang Zengming be the governor of Beichuan Province, and then appoint a general to go to Beichuan Province to suppress bandits full-time."

    Yan Jing also insisted on his own opinion: "Your Majesty, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. If a new governor of the province appoints a general to suppress thieves, it will be a mistake to restrain each other."

    Emperor Longjun is also in a dilemma. According to reason, a civil servant should be appointed as the governor.

    But now most of Beichuan Province is occupied by the rebels, and the civilian officials don't know about military affairs, so it is difficult to stabilize the overall situation.

    But sending a general to serve as the governor can wipe out the bandit army, but it violates the ancestral system.

    After hesitating and struggling for a while, the Emperor Longjun quickly made a decision. He felt that what Yan Jing said was right. During the extraordinary period, it is still necessary to employ people without sticking to the formalities.

    After all, his throne was won by force, and the ancestral system is nothing to him.

    "Yan Aiqing, is there a general who can be good at fighting?" The emperor asked Yan Jing.

    After Yan Jing heard the emperor's words, he also knew that his opinion had been adopted, which was considered a small victory over Sun Dong.

    "Reporting to Your Majesty, Li Xingba, the former general of the imperial guards, is worthy of great responsibility." Yan Jing cupped his hands.

    "Let Li Xingba see you." Emperor Longjun nodded.

    Although Li Xingba was a former general of the imperial guards, he had secretly attached himself to Prime Minister Zuo Yanjing's sect.

    Therefore, with Yan Jing, Prime Minister Zuo's recommendation, the emperor personally summoned Li Xingba and saw that Li Xingba was tall and powerful, with the style of a general, so he was immediately appointed Governor of Beichuan Province.

    Because the current situation in Beichuan Province continued to deteriorate, after receiving the order, Li Xingba personally selected 2,000 elite cavalry from the Imperial Guards, and immediately rushed to Beichuan Province overnight.

    Emperor Longjun also placed high hopes on Li Xingba, the new governor of Beichuan Province, and hoped that he could quickly stabilize the situation in Beichuan Province and stabilize the rear.

    However, what Emperor Longjun never expected was that Li Xingba, the new governor, had just set off for a few days when another bad news came.

    That is, something happened in Nanchuan Province again. The bandit army who came out of the mountains captured more than ten towns in Nanchuan Province within five days, and the capital of the province was in a hurry.

    The matter in Nanchuan Province has not been resolved, and the barbarians in the mountainous areas of the western provinces have also been transferred due to the large number of local garrison forces. The barbarian tribes also rebelled again one after another. More than 3,000 Zhenxi troops stationed on the western border were brutally slaughtered.

    The main force of the Zhenxi Army has been transferred eastward, and is currently deployed on the front line of fighting the rebels, so there are not many remaining troops in the western provinces.

    And the sudden rebellion of the barbarian tribes attacked the towns, which immediately put the western provinces in a hurry.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
