"Weichen thinks that Wang Cheng, the commander of the fifth field army, is mature and prudent. He has fought against Han Hai many times, and he is familiar with Han Hai, so he is qualified to be the commander of the first field army."
When the imperial emperor Chen Ziang threw out the candidate for the commander of the first field army for everyone to recommend, Qin An, chief of staff, spoke first.
Qin An is an old minister of the former court, and Wang Cheng, the commander of the Fifth Field Army, is also an old minister of the former court.
So Qin An also wanted to recommend Wang Cheng as the commander-in-chief of the First Field Army. Wang Cheng would definitely be grateful to him and remember this friendship.
"The Commander Wang Jun is a veteran general in the army, and he has contributed to the empire, but after all, he is old. Now the first field army has to deal with the entire Hanhai Dynasty. I am afraid that the Commander Wang Jun is not competent." Li Qiye, the chief of the military department, said shook his head.
"Although the mutiny at Baima Pass has subsided this time, it has also had a serious impact, which shows that the commander of the Wang Army is not strict." Yue Shan, the chief of the criminal department, also echoed.
He looked around the crowd and said: "Now the commander of the Wang Army is so powerless to control an army alone. If he controls an army, he doesn't know how much trouble he will cause. So I think the first army in the field Commander, you should choose some generals who can stand alone."
After Yue Shan, Chief of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, finished speaking, everyone nodded in succession, thinking that what Yue Shan said was good.
The mutiny at Baima Pass was investigated by the Intelligence Investigation Institute and Jin Yiwei. Although it was not related to Wang Cheng, as the highest officer of the garrison, he was also to blame.
The imperial court did not hold him accountable because of his meritorious service in guarding Baima Pass and resisting the invasion of Hanhai in time.
However, the Baimaguan mutiny incident also became a stain in Wang Cheng's career.
"Hu Ziyang, the commander of the Fourth Field Army, has outstanding military exploits and the ability to take charge alone. I feel that he is qualified to be the commander of the First Field Army."
Song Zhi, chief of the Ministry of Industry, originally objected to a large-scale war with Hanhai, but Chen Ziang had already made a decision, so he had no choice but to obey. He also had his own ideas about the position of commander of the first field army.
Although both Song Zhi and Hu Ziyang were former officials and generals in the previous dynasty, they did not have much intersection.
This time Song Zhi took the initiative to recommend Hu Ziyang, the commander of the Fourth Field Army, as the commander of the First Field Army, out of publicity.
After all, Hu Ziyang served as Marshal of the Imperial Guards and Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses in the previous dynasty, commanding hundreds of thousands of troops at most.
Hou Hu Ziyang knew current affairs and surrendered to the Qinghe Army, and has since become a senior general in the Qinghe Army's battle order.
Therefore, in the view of Song Zhi, the chief of the Ministry of Industry, Hu Ziyang has the ability to act alone, so he is also competent as the commander-in-chief of the first field army.
"The leader of Hu Ziyang's army is both brave and brave, but after all he is not familiar with the vast sea and has no combat experience in the vast sea. It is too risky to lead the army rashly against the Hanhai dynasty." Miao Cai, the head of the household department, shook his head.
Miao Cai, as the head of the household department, is actually not good at marching and fighting, but he knows that Hu Ziyang is an important general in the previous dynasty, and rashly handing over the army to him is the biggest risk.
Chen Ziang naturally heard the implication that Miao Cai, the head of the household department, said that the risk was too high, and nodded slightly.
The Far East Empire has not been established for a long time now, and it is facing many problems and difficulties both internally and externally.
During this period of time, more than a thousand corrupt officials were arrested in various provinces and counties, many of whom were retained from the previous dynasty.
Now that the Far East Empire is facing external threats again, under such circumstances, Chen Ziang is really worried about entrusting the task of commanding the army to a former general.
It's not that Chen Ziang doesn't trust Hu Ziyang, but that he has a lot of people in his belly. For the sake of the overall situation and stability of the empire, he has to consider these issues.
If Hu Ziyang, the commander of the Fourth Field Army, was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the First Field Army, he would not only face resistance from the court, but also some resistance from the army.
In particular, some generals of the former Qinghe Army's direct descendants are Chen Ziang's most solid backing.
If Hu Ziyang was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the first field army and the former Qinghe army's direct line was separated from him, the impact would be enormous.
"I feel that Yuan Jie, the commander of the 12th Cavalry Corps, is worthy of a great responsibility." Liang Guanlin, the chief of the Ministry of Commerce, said.
"The deputy head of Zhang Bao of the Fifth Field Army has made outstanding achievements in battle. This time he put down the mutiny at Baima Pass, and he knows the Hanhai people well. I think the commander of the First Field Army??, none other than him. "Chen Ru, the chairman of the supervisory committee, also expressed his views.
Chen Ru, the former commander of the Qinghe Army, felt in his heart that Zhang Bao came from the old ninth battalion of the Qinghe Army after all, and he was regarded as a direct descendant of the direct line, so he felt that Zhang Bao was feasible.
"Qingzhou Army Commander Zhou Ting is more familiar with Hanhai's situation, and he is young and promising. We can give him a chance to exercise." Du Jian, the director of the Intelligence Research Institute, also spoke.
Cao Shaowei, the dean of the Overwatch Council, shook his head: "Although Commander Zhou Ting is young and promising, there are quite a few young and promising generals like him in our Imperial Army. Dong Hao, the commander of the Eighth Army, can also be promoted."
Zhou Ting can also be regarded as a hero of the young generation of the Far East Empire. At the beginning, he formed a team with Tang Ping, Du Xiaoniu and others to fight against the enemy behind the enemy.
Relying on his military exploits, he climbed all the way from the head of the banner to the high position of the head of the army, and he was promoted faster than many senior veterans.
Cao Shaowei, the dean of the Overwatch Council, felt that if Zhou Ting was promoted again this time, it would definitely make some senior generals dissatisfied.
At this critical time when foreign enemies are at the head, it is important to maintain the stability and unity within the imperial army.
Both the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty had their own ideas, and there were endless debates over who should be the commander-in-chief of the first field army.
It's just that the public says the public is right and the woman says that the woman is reasonable. Chen Ziang, the emperor of the empire, also feels a headache.
After all, the personnel issue is a major issue. If it cannot be handled well, it will affect unity and affect combat effectiveness.
After all, Chen Zi'ang was the emperor of the Far East Empire. After listening to everyone's opinions, after careful consideration, he knocked on the table to make everyone quiet.
"What you love to say is quite reasonable, and the people you recommend are all outstanding talents of the empire, but there is only one commander of the first field army, so naturally it is impossible to take care of them all."
"I have a candidate here, and that is the commander of the Guards and the deputy chief of the Ministry of War, Tan Feng. What do you love?"
Tan Feng, the commander of the Guards Army, is Chen Ziang's direct descendant, and has the experience of leading an army alone in combat. Moreover, he is also the deputy chief of the Ministry of War now, so he has a stronger view of the overall situation.
Therefore, whether it is seniority or ability, Tan Feng, the commander of the guards and the deputy chief of the military department, is more suitable.
"Your Majesty is wise, I have no objection."
Qin An, Chief of the Ministry of Officials, saw that Chen Ziang had an idea, and he immediately expressed his support.
"The minister seconded the proposal."
Although the rest of the people were disappointed to see that the candidate they recommended was not favored by Chen Ziang, Tan Feng was always better than the other candidates, so they agreed after a little thought.
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of War is busy. If Vice Chief Tan is the Commander-in-Chief of the First Field Army, how about asking Chief Wang Chengjun to be promoted to Deputy Chief of the Ministry of War?" Li Qiye also suggested.
"I agree, Wang Cheng was promoted to the deputy chief of the Ministry of War, and Zhang Bao was promoted to the commander of the Fifth Field Army."
Chen Ziang understood Li Qiye's intention, which was to promote the aged Wang Cheng to the deputy chief, from a real position to a false position, from a first-line to a second-line, to realize the obvious promotion and the secret demotion.
At the same time, the position was vacated for Zhang Bao, the deputy head of the army who had made great contributions this time, and promoted to head of the army.
"Since you all have no other opinions, let's make a decision. Deputy commander Tan Feng will be promoted to the commander of the First Field Army, and Hu Ziyang and Yuan Jie will also serve as deputy commanders." (Remember this site's website: www.hlnovel.com
