How fanatical are the Nine-Sided Warlords?

Take Liaodong commander-in-chief Li Chengliang as an example, led his nephew and his headquarters from Liaoyang to the northeast to advance thousands of miles, this guy spent ten years in Liaodong to build six forts in Kuandian, for the Ming Dynasty to occupy eight hundred miles of rivers and mountains, this time all the way to the east to build forts, to build six fortresses for the imperial court, the recent report back to the Beijing division is that he is repairing the hometown of Tashanwei.

General Ningyuan General Zu Ren was not idle, and took his son Zu Chengxun, the deputy chief soldier of Liaodong, to sweep all the way behind Li Chengliang's troops who had surrendered and rebelled, and restrained the troops who had surrendered safely, which shocked the hearts of the local troops who wanted to make trouble.

The Tulun city lord Nikan Wailan has met many border generals and warriors in Liaodong Jinyin Kailu over the years, and intercepted a leader named Atai who wanted to rebel in the right guard of Jianzhou, and took this opportunity to lead the way for the guerrilla generals who were eager to make meritorious contributions in Zhenwu Fort.

This guerrilla's name is Tong Yangzheng, the origin of the Liaodong General, his father Tong Dengguan worships the chief military officer, and he cultivates literature and martial arts, and is a martial artist in the eighth year of Wanli.

This town Wubao guerrilla is his first official position, this time is particularly urgent, the march out of the large army, only with twenty-six brothers all the way to the right guard of Jianzhou, a single arrow did not send a word to the city people ran to the surrender, he just ran to the city leader Atai was killed by his subordinates to sacrifice the head.

Until the telegram sent by the imperial court to give him a promotion and a reward for silver, Tong Yangzheng was still in a dream, and he probably couldn't understand how he could capture more than 1,400 people with 27 people in his life.

Just these war reports are sent back and forth, what happened to the palace report along the nine sides of the wire all day knows, who can still hold it?

The soldiers of Liaodong Town saw Qi Jiguang leading the troops to raise their prestige outside the Saiwai, they couldn't sit still, and each took out the ability to fight, and there was a garrison named Shi Ru under Zu Chengxun's hands, leading three hundred cavalry to be the vanguard to attack the enemy's infantry formation.

The soldiers and horses stepped into battle, and the mount left him, the officer, in the enemy formation, rushing left and right, no one knew how this person survived in the enemy formation, anyway, in the end, the enemy army lacking decent armor and weapons was scattered, and this man was paralyzed on the ground and still holding a knife and waving it left and right as if shouting to kill.

After a fight, two ribs were broken, and the spine was displaced, and he was carried back to Fucheng to be massaged by the doctor, and I don't know if I can stand up again in this life.

But these things are invisible in the eyes of others, they can only see the tailwind, and they don't need to ask who the enemy is, and it is impossible to lose.

Others don't say it, Yang Siwei, the chief soldier of Jizhen, and Zhang Jue, the deputy chief soldier of Jizhou Middle Road, were the first to jointly play a book to invite them to fight, and the emperor was not surprised that they asked for a battle - originally Jizhen and the two of them should have fought at home, but the court was worried that Qi Jiguang would not be able to defend after leaving the fortress, and they were also afraid that Yang Siwei would be defeated by the bald man who jumped out casually and ruined their morale, so they didn't let them go.

It's not that I underestimate Yang Siwei, the main thing is that the general soldier of Jizhen after taking over Qi Jiguang's expedition, it's really not good to fight, it's okay to restrain the guards from training, and the biggest trait in addition is honesty.

It's so honest that even if you can't beat it, you won't run.

In this era, this trait basically belongs to the second echelon of the Ming generals, and the first echelon is the fire captains of the Ming Dynasty, regardless of the people who are fighting everywhere; The tailwind can fight steadily against the headwind, and dare to fight, which is undoubtedly a good general, after all, it is the previous generation; In the last generation of generals, as long as they run honestly, they can be regarded as burning high incense, and more often they neither dare to fight nor flee, and finally bribe the enemy to let me answer to rob the land guarded by others.

That's really a shameless thing.

So even if Yang Siwei's ability is a little insufficient, and the imperial court knows this deficiency, no matter whether it is Zhang Juzheng or the emperor or even the military department and soldiers, no one has ever said that Yang Siwei is not.

Even as soon as I heard that someone in Mongolia was going to enter the army, or when Changbald led the troops to knock on the pass two years ago, Zhang Juzheng and Feng Baoyi combined, and felt that Yang Siwei, who was guarding Changping, couldn't do it for a long time, so what should I do?

Then he transferred Dong Yiyuan, who was able to fight, to Changzhen to hang the deputy commander-in-chief, and Yang Siwei was transferred to the chief officer of Baoding, and he was transferred back after the battle.

And because of his loyalty, he never complained with the transfer of the imperial court, and he was promoted to a first-class martial honor when he went back.

The more miserable thing is Dong Yiyuan, who should have been the chief military officer when he was released, but he hung up a deputy chief soldier, and the blind bald man ran to Qi Jiguang and Li Chengliang's defense area to spread wild, but he was captured by the two of them, and he didn't make any meritorious deeds.

Perhaps the biggest advantage is that after the Shanhaiguan War, Emperor Wanli granted Dong Yiyuan a two-month vacation, which happened to be close to Xuanfu, so he went home to rest for two months.

Before the holiday was over, the imperial court began to increase troops to the Xuanda defense line, and the emperor put all the elite soldiers of the Wanli army under his control.

It's all tears when it comes to it, but Dong Yiyuan is comfortable now, and he took the Wanli army to settle in Naturalization City.

But there are many people who are uncomfortable.

Li Chengen, deputy commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town, took over the defense of the Wanli Army after it came out of the fortress, and when he saw that Yang Siwei, who had taken over the defense in Jizhou, was going to fight, he was not lagging behind, and he was shouting anxiously to fight.

Guo Hu of Datong Town is also a great veteran, although the light has been obscured by Ma Fang, but also by virtue of the Tartar cavalry to clean up the plunder, the rebellious Shanxi Tusi started, once in the old camp fort single division to advance, to keep the besieged lonely city, to seize the enemy's grain, grass, cattle and horses without counting but also to win the first level of more than 1,000 merits, with military merits promoted to the governor of the left capital, awarded the Guanglu doctor, the emperor enshrined the descendants of the five generations of hereditary commanders of the fierce man.

This old lady also wants to join this grand event, and Emperor Wanli doesn't know how to refuse.

Wei Shi, the chief military officer of Shaanxi Town, found a unique way, knowing that the young emperor was very happy with his achievements, and asked the guerrilla and hereditary commanders of the Guide Institute located in the territory of Tubo to write a long letter to the emperor to write a long letter to the emperor, and asked the knights of Wusizang, who were going to ride yaks, to go out of the mountains and advance into the Hetao, and he did nothing himself, so he sent the imperial court a strategic plan to recover the Hetao, with a clear goal - and then get a few nitrate pools in the desert from the northwest desert to the empire to present to His Majesty.

Compared with Niu Bingzhong, the chief military officer of Ningxia Town and the general of Zhengxi, he is much more honest, he doesn't send official documents, and he is embarrassed to write a private letter to the emperor: Hetao, the old minister also wants to go.

This is very weighty, Niu Bingzhong has been guarding Ningxia for ten years, he is the only one in the border town of Jiubu who has not fought a battle since taking office, because others heard that he is the one who guards Ningxia, so he did not come to Ningxia, the last time he fought was when he was the deputy chief soldier of Yansui Town stationed in Gushan, he fought several small battles, and the first-level merit was five or six hundred, which was not conspicuous in the endless first-level merit reports of the empire.

If you really want to say that it is special, it may be that more than 100 of these five or six hundred first-level skills were obtained by him alone.

Reading these battle reports all day long, can Wanli Ye's head not be big, he was angry and just wanted to lift the table, but the ship was too heavy to move.

"They all want to send troops, they all want to send troops, but the military will is available, and they do open up the territory, but this is all money, where do I have so much money enough for them to make so many people!"

The angry Wanli purred like an angry cat.

"And this, who is this Zhang Chen? He didn't say anything about his official position, but also said that he was a criminal and wanted to atone for his sins, what did he do? ”

Wanli said that he threw a letter from the military department to Wang An, and Wang An was blindsided for a while when he received the letter, and it took a while before he suddenly realized: "Ah, General Zhang, the slave and maid remembered." ”

"When he was guarding the Xuanfu Dining Chamber, he sang the empty city plan, Jiajing Nian and I agreed to send money to others in the Kou, and finally hit the castle he guarded and surrounded by water, he had few soldiers and could not go to war, so he let the soldiers drink water in the fort for wine, cheering and singing, more than 10,000 Mengqi did not dare to attack outside the city, and they were determined to die at night, and went to the rear to continue fighting, and after the war, they were promoted to guerrilla generals because of their merits."

"Because of merit? That's right, too. ”

Wanli thinks about it, others escape, bribes and bribes, this Zhang Chen can continue to fight after he can get out, and he has merit in comparison with inactivity.

Later, in the fifth year of Wanli, he became the chief military officer of Ningxia, and in the same year, the king of Shunyi wanted to support the army to pass through Helan Mountain, General Zhang did not let it, and the king of Shunyi spoke badly...... In the next three years, no one in Gong City, Gansu Province, dared to make a loud noise. ”

Wanli listened as he tried his best to suppress the urge to applaud, and said, "Then what crime did he commit?" ”

"In the matter, because of his irritability, he blamed him for his cumbersome etiquette, so he impeached and removed him."

This time Wanli really applauded, and applauded in reverse: "I can't see this, it's a cumbersome matter of etiquette?" This is obviously deliberately finding faults, taking the seal, and I have found a talent again! ”
