Chapter 24: Surveying the World

Li Qianqian nodded, he could think about the problem from the perspective of transportation and logistics, and it was much better than those ignorant military blind scholars, who said that wherever Wang Shi went, it was much better for the thieves to abandon their weapons and surrender, so he said: "This also makes sense, Li Zicheng will not be able to stabilize the situation if he does not go south, so even if he does not care about the back road, he will quickly send troops south, but after all, he still has the big enemy of Pingxibo Wu Sangui of Shanhaiguan on his flank, doesn't it mean that Li Zicheng has already raised troops and attacked him a few days ago." ”

"yes." The delay speed from Nanjing to BJ news is almost half a month to twenty days, and this time difference is almost torturous to death, Wu Meicun replied: "The latest news, presumably at this time, Li Zicheng and Ping Xibo are fighting at Shanhaiguan, but I don't know what the outcome is at this time." ”

Li Xiangqian smiled: "Yes, but if you want me to say, if there is no external force, it will be difficult for Ping Xibo to resist Li Zicheng's army." ”

Wu Meicun sighed and said: "That's true, now, Ping Xibo is defeated, Li Zicheng has no opponent in the Central Plains, and he will inevitably go south, the so-called four towns in Jiangbei, in my opinion, but four horses, it is difficult to be a big task, only when I look forward to the sky, this year it will be rainy in the north, and the road to the south is difficult to walk, so there will be a glimmer of life." ”

Li Xiangqian's heart suddenly moved, and said: "Isn't there still the Eight Banners, since they are in Liaodong and bordering Li Zicheng, aren't they going to have a conflict." ”

Wu Meicun said: "It's difficult, where would Li Thief let me not take the land of Jiangnan Plaster, but go to fight the bitter cold land of Liaodong?" And the Eight Banners, speaking of which, are of course extremely vicious, but they lack food, and they lack a foundation in the north, so they can't enter the Central Plains. ”

Li Xiangqian doesn't like to hear this, what is it called, those hundreds of thousands of ordinary people who were plundered, and even rich girls, were slaughtered like cattle at every turn, and they became real slaves afterwards.

"What I said is a pity that the land of Liaodong is about to be reduced to a bloody body, and I am wailing, and the same is true of those people who have been plundered."

He carefully observed Wu Meicun's expression, if this person is a bit of a bit-bit-the-word ability, and the heart is a scumbag who doesn't treat ordinary people as people, not only can he not use it, but he also has to be on guard and take precautions, establish a file for him, and don't want to enter the civil service sequence for the rest of his life, this is not only a matter of moral principles, but also some conventional guarantee relationships brought about by bringing a person into the system, in case it is a time bomb, it is not good to blow yourself up.

Wu Meicun looked very annoyed and said: "Then we can only wait until the new monarch ascends the throne, refreshes politics, integrates the army, and then goes north to the Central Plains." ”

Li Xiangqian shook his head and said: "How many years will you have to wait, if it goes on like this, it will be the end of the Southern Song Dynasty for better, and if it is bad, it is likely to be ......" Wait, why didn't this person think about it, after the Eight Banners entered Beijing, they occupied the Central Plains, and finally conquered the possibility of the world.

Li Xiangqian suddenly asked: "By the way, Brother Wu, what if this Liaodong Eight Banners enter the customs, then although Li Chuang is a thief, but he is still a Chinese Miao descendant, although there are many killings in SXHN, it is also a war, the sword has no eyes, just look at him After entering SX, he surrendered and rebelled, and he was considered to have no crime all the way, at least he would not kill too much, and once the Eight Banners soldiers came in, when the mountains and rivers were broken and slaughtered everywhere, it would be like Meng Yuan, causing a huge disaster." ”

"This ......" Wu Meicun fell into thought, and said: "That Mengyuan is completely different from today's Eight Banner Soldiers, but it is completely different, that Mengyuan, his own clan has millions of people, and there are also the color eyes army recruited from the Western Regions, its momentum has been completed, and it is also a few times three wars, fighting hard for decades, and in the world, the Eight Banners, the soldiers do not exceed tens of thousands, and the grain cannot be self-sufficient, if it really enters the Central Plains, the gentry will not really cooperate with him, how can there be a chance, difficult, as for some losses, it has been the case for thousands of years, once the Central Plains has a clear master, Naturally, it can be like plowing the court and sweeping the holes, destroying the stubborn enemy, from the Huns, the Turks, to the Jurchens, it is better to be, so Brother Li does not look at the eight banners that are rampant today, and sooner or later there will be a day of destruction. ”

It turns out that this is the case, Li Xiangqian understands a little, it turns out that due to the inertia of history, these scholars did not put the corpses killed in Liaodong all over the field, and the gang of people who killed the Han people in Liaodong in their eyes, for them, it is just a trivial matter, and the Chinese people's favorite thing is to record a small ledger, and when it is developed in the future, it can be directly called back, which may be why the Nanming ****** want to make the wrong decision to unite and capture the Kou in the future.

They ignored that the Eight Banners were also a robbery group with a large number of traitors and traitor literati, and they also had various tricks and postures, and after entering the customs, they first played the famous slogan of borrowing the division to help suppress this kind of division, stabilized the ****** of the Southern Ming Dynasty, and then concentrated their forces to continuously attack Li Zicheng, poor Li Zicheng's army of millions, and he never had the opportunity to rectify the team, and every time he wanted to find a place to rest, he would be directly penetrated.

This is a matter of ability, but also a matter of vision, after all, people are still regarded as ignorant barbarians, but there is still salvation, Li Xiangqian said: "This is the legendary Hu people without a hundred years of national fortune, so to say, there is still some truth." ”

Li Xiangqian sighed, understanding that it was this mentality that led to the discoloration of the world and the depletion of everything, but there was still salvation, and after thinking about it, he said: "By the way, speaking of which, Nanjing City seems to have either supported King Fu's accession to the throne or supported King Lu's accession to the throne, which side are you." ”

Wu Meicun lowered his head and said: "Neither side is the appearance of Mingjun, it can be said that neither side is suitable." ”

Li Xiangqian couldn't imagine that he was so bold, but if you think about it carefully, it is also very reasonable, in the Ming Dynasty, scholars were so bold that even the emperor could scold, not to mention the princes who were discriminatory and hostile in their eyes, those princes were often full of food and fun all day long, and couldn't do anything else, so they were also discriminated against, these two people had not been emperors after all, so it was okay to evaluate them.

Li Xiangqian didn't plan to ask him, where was not the appearance of the Ming monarch, just look at the history books, the destruction of the Southern Ming ****** was basically not a good military and political talent, but his purpose was not to find Zhang Zhao with a political power of 100, or Zhou Yu with a ruling power of 99.

He just came to take a trip to get the grain business done, and by the way to scare the people in Nanjing who planned to "go it alone", during this period, basically he couldn't spare his manpower and strength to put it in the south, so he could only use such a little influence to scare it.
