Doctors in the late Ming Dynasty

"Four years ago, we finally captured the Gule Mountain City and solved the Atai rebellion. The next step was to solve the issue of statehood once and for all. However, the imperial court returned the land and people of Takshi to Nurhaci, so that he could inherit it.

The title of Commander-in-Chief."

"It's good now. In the past four years, Nurhaci has carried my Minghu flag, fought everywhere, and conquered a large area of ​​land. In time, he may be the next Atai."

It turns out that Atai is the son of Wang Gao, and Nurhachi's father Takshi is Wang Gao's son-in-law. Wang Gao is the Jurchen leader of Jianzhou. He has repeatedly invaded the border for thirty years. In the third year of Wanli, Li Chengliang led his army to attack Jianzhou. Wang Gao

Gao was captured and imprisoned in Beijing. Atai was able to escape and continued to cause trouble.

In the eleventh year of Wanli, Li Chengliang conquered Jianzhou again. Takshi and his father Jue Changan went to Gule Village to persuade the Ming army to surrender. Due to the emergency of the war, they were besieged in the village. After the city was broken, they were accidentally killed by the Ming army. Originally, if Nurhachi was killed,

And resolved, the thirty years of Jianzhou Rebellion disappeared.

But the court was reasonable and believed that Jue Chang'an, Takshi and his son died for the Ming Dynasty, so they rewarded Takshi's clan land to Nurhachi, Takshi's son.

In the same year, Nurhaci raised an army with only the thirteen armors of his ancestors and father, and campaigned against various ministries in Jianzhou. After four years, he had basically taken over the old land of his ancestors and fathers, but he still did not stop his troops.

This left Li Chengliang with nothing to do. Although he knew that indulging Nurhaci would cause trouble in the future, Nurhaci had the court's resignation and did not want to attack the court like his grandfather and uncle. In addition, all the ministries in Jianzhou were ordinary goods, so Li Chengliang could only stare.

Thirty years later, under the guard of Li Chengliang, Liaodong, a once absurd place, is now prosperous. Although later generations criticized Li Chengliang, saying that he sat back and watched the Jurchens in Jianzhou become powerful. In fact, without Li Chengliang, who would have had Nurhachi unify the Jurchens?

Wang Gao, Atai and his son fulfilled their destiny of unifying the Jurchens.

It can be said that Li Chengliang delayed the unification of the various Jurchen tribes, delaying the process for at least thirty years. Li Chengliang himself was criticized by court officials a few years later and was dismissed.

Since Li Chengliang left Liaodong, eight coaches have changed in the past ten years. In addition, the seven-year aid to Korea and the anti-Japanese war has continuously transferred material personnel from Liaodong, which has gradually weakened Liaodong's border defense and provided an objective basis for the rise of Nurhaci.

Conditions.

Now, Li Chengliang's life is at its most difficult. When Zhang Juzheng was in power, not only did he not have any constraints, but Qi Jiguang and others also helped him share the burden. He did not live up to expectations, and repeatedly attacked Mongolia, guarded Liaodong, subdued the Jurchens, and prospered.

Liaodong can be said to have delivered a perfect answer.

But just after Zhang Juzheng died, everything changed. Li Chengliang had been targeted since the tenth year of Wanli, not only in dealing with Nurhaci, but also in the fear of Li Chengliang and his son.

In the eleventh year of Wanli, Li Rusong was promoted to the chief military officer of Shanxi. However, the court officials believed that Li Chengliang and Li Rusong and his son should not be in charge of the important town together. Fortunately, Shen Shixing came forward to ask the Wanli Emperor to protect Li Rusong, so he summoned Li Rusong to Beijing to serve as the governor of the Right Army.<

/p>

Now Shen Shixing is Li Chengliang's only support in the court. Zhu Guozuo is a disciple of Shen Shixing, and Zhang Jiebin has a good relationship with him. This is why Li Chengliang sent him back to Beijing.

"I returned to Beijing yesterday and met Brother Li Shi. I heard that Shao Shu was impeaching the two brothers again."

The Li Shixiong mentioned by Zhang Jiebin were brothers Li Rusong and Li Rubai. Not long after Li Rusong became the governor of the Right Army, he was impeached and transferred to admiral to patrol the capital. He is still being watched and impeached continuously.

And Li Rubai is now the deputy commander-in-chief of Jizhen. Compared with his eldest brother Li Rusong, although he was also impeached, he has been commanding Qianshi all the way from the Tieling Guards to Miyun guerrillas and Huanghualing general, and now he has become the deputy commander-in-chief of Jizhen.

Official positions continue to grow.

The pressure on him is still smaller. The main targets of impeachment by the court officials are still Li Chengliang and Li Rusong. Perhaps their fault is that they are too capable of fighting, and they prepare the army for war without giving any face to the civilian officials.

"Li Rusong will leave Xuanfu and serve as the chief military officer of Xuanfu." Zhu Guozuo said with a smile, giving Zhang Jiebin an accurate reply.

When Zhang Jiebin heard this, he was immediately mixed with joy and sorrow. He was happy that Li Rusong finally had a role to play, but he was worried that more violent impeachments would continue to come. It is conceivable that there will be countless impeachment memorials against Li Chengliang, Li Rusong and his son.

Come.

"Well, maybe only if Uncle Dingyuan retires, brothers Rusong can live a more stable life." Zhang Jiebin thought in his heart.

"Okay, your matter has been solved. You have to pay more attention to the hospital's affairs." Zhu Guozuo said with a solemn expression. This epidemic has made him very worried.

"Don't worry, I can risk my life." Zhang Jiebin promised.

"With your words, I feel relieved. If you want to save your life, a dead Zhang Jiebin is of no use. You can only play a role if you are alive."

Zhang Jiebin smiled, but he was not as nervous as Zhu Guozuo. For him, war has never been a problem, whether it was the battlefield in Liaodong or the upcoming epidemic. These can all be solved by manpower. What really made him feel powerless was Qia Qia.

When it comes to court disputes, one word can activate someone, and the same word can remove a general.

Whether it is Qi Jiguang or Li Chengliang, their appointment or dismissal can only be decided by the thoughts of the court officials.

"You seem very confident?" Seeing Zhang Jiebin's relaxed look, Zhu Guozuo was very surprised.

Zhang Jiebin said with a smile: "The capital has the best medical conditions. If this cannot quell the epidemic, I think no place in the Ming Dynasty will be immune."

Zhu Guozuo was still worried: "Having said that, you have also seen that the Imperial Hospital only has so many manpower, so how can it be enough?"

"Two hundred years have passed, why do you think there is not enough manpower now?" Zhang Jiebin found it funny. Previously, the hospital had fewer people, with only ten medical officers and dozens of doctors. The number of people was not too small, and now it has expanded several times.

, but I feel that there are not enough manpower.

Zhu Guozuo explained: "There are hundreds of thousands of people in the capital, plus at least one million refugees. How can these few hundred people be enough?"

"Who said there are only a few hundred people? There are at least two to three thousand doctors in the five cities. Don't underestimate them. Back then, Master Jin led the doctors in Xicheng to quell the big head plague in and outside Xicheng." Zhang Jiebin thought that the doctors in the city could be of great use, so he promoted them.

Jin Ying’s example.

"Mr. Ke Mengshi is no longer in the capital. What's more, five years ago, not only Shi Ren Tang, but also doctors from Yi Yi Tang came to help, but now they are gone." Hearing what Zhang Jiebin said, Zhu Guozuo became even more worried.

Seeing this, Zhang Jiebin smiled and said: "The capital is a good place, and there are many people who are willing to help. If you are worried, I will give you an idea and keep it for you. Hundreds of doctors can be transformed into you in a moment."<

"What did you say?" Zhu Guozuo looked at Zhang Jiebin with confusion, thinking he heard wrongly.
