"It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord."

Su Tiancheng said such words before the Jiangning camp marched into Tianjin, so that Hong Chengchou and others felt surprised, although Su Tiancheng had written some poems that have been sung to this day, but since he entered the imperial court, he has not continued, it is said that this kind of poetry against the behavior, Su Tiancheng is very disdainful, thinking that it is all a matter of the peaceful period, in the troubled times, the capital of life still needs a strong army and enough wisdom.

Of course, Hong Chengchou and others also understood that this was the emperor's good mood, the bloody battle of Cangzhou, although the Jiangning battalion also suffered great losses, but this time the battle completely crushed the momentum of the Ming army, so that the Houjin Tartars fled, which has exceeded the expected results, from the perspective of the entire campaign, this start is very exciting.

Lu Xiangsheng led the army, rushed to Cangzhou, it is needless to say that the wind and food along the way are sleeping, after coming to Cangzhou, Lu Xiangsheng is still very regretful, did not be able to catch up with the war, he led the 40,000 Jiangning battalion soldiers, when they marched into Henan, they almost did not encounter any decent resistance, even Kaifeng Mansion, were easily taken down, Henan's guard army, long since heard the wind and fled, there are also direct surrenders.

Lu Xiangsheng was able to leave Henan smoothly, regardless of local stability, which also benefited from Su Tiancheng's arrangement, and it was Yang Sichang who followed Lu Xiangsheng into Henan Province as the prime minister. The former cabinet chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty, Yang Sichang naturally knew what kind of arrangements to make, in fact, after Yang Sichang entered Henan Mansion, some officials in Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces had already begun to secretly contact Yang Sichang, some of whom were officials. was originally Yang Sichang's protégé, thinking that he could directly join the Great Jin Dynasty and seek a way out for the future.

The army rested in Cangzhou for two days.

The two days were very intense, but we could not continue to delay, and we had to speed up the pace of the campaign.

In the course of the discussion of the next move, it was suggested that Tianjin should be bypassed and attacked the capital directly, as long as the capital could be taken, the Ming army in Tianjin would be leaderless. The meaning of resistance has been lost.

But Su Tiancheng denied this opinion, although this expedition to the Ming Dynasty has been somewhat smooth, and has not encountered too many twists and turns, but how it will develop in the future, this is unclear to anyone, there are always some people who have a very strong desire for power. It may even take advantage of this opportunity to set himself up as king. Establish the so-called dynasties, because these people have an army in their hands, once these short-lived dynasties are established, it is the common people who suffer, and the local construction will also suffer great damage, and there will be a scene of thousands of miles of no people. It's not unusual.

The Jiangning battalion must completely exterminate the Ming army, and the Great Jin Dynasty founded by Su Tiancheng does not allow other armies to exist.

After Su Tiancheng said this point of view, everyone's understanding was quickly unified, and it was precisely because of Su Tiancheng's statement. Let many officers of the Jiangning battalion understand that even if they take the capital and exterminate the Ming army, the Jiangning battalion still has a very heavy task, at least before the Houjin Tartars are completely wiped out, don't think that they can live in peace and stability.

On December 13, the army of the Jiangning battalion set out from Cangzhou.

The intelligence detected by the scouts, as well as Sun Chuanting's many reports, have made it clear that the location of the Ming army's distribution is mainly concentrated around the city of Tianjin, and a large number of Ming troops are stationed in the city.

This situation was expected by Su Tiancheng, and the frightened Chen Xinjia and Wang Daozhi could only choose to be stationed in the city, and if the field battle continued, the Datong border army would not be able to resist the attack of the Jiangning battalion.

In fact, after the battle of Cangzhou, the situation has long changed, the Daimyofu, Guangping Mansion, Shunde Mansion, as well as some places of Zhending Mansion and Hejian Mansion to which Beizhili belongs, have been controlled by the Great Jin Dynasty, and there are not many places that the Ming Dynasty can control, nominally Shaanxi, Shanxi, Ningxia and other places remain, but the orders of the Ming Dynasty, that is, can be conveyed to Shuntianfu, Baoding Mansion, Yongping Mansion, Xuanfu Town and Liaodong area, Zhu Xianxuan, Yang Sichang and Fan Jingwen and other figures, must be able to seize all opportunities, Shaanxi and Shanxi belong to many prefectures and counties, many officials have made it clear that they have taken refuge in the Great Jin Dynasty, this kind of refuge is not an ugly thing in their opinion, anyway, the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty Su Tiancheng is also a Han Chinese, and he was once the leader of the palace test, and Su Tiancheng's influence in Shaanxi and Shanxi is huge, and the people of Shaanxi will not forget Su Tiancheng so far, it is when Su Tiancheng served as the governor of Shaanxi, they can eat enough, and will not be displaced, Shanxi is Su Tiancheng's hometown, and the hometown has an emperor, The hearts of the people were filled with pride.

Therefore, many people understand that if the battle of Tianjin is won, the whole battle will basically be over, after taking the capital, the Ming Dynasty will be completely destroyed, as for the Liaodong border army, facing a dilemma, give up Liaodong, let the Houjin Tartars occupy, or even directly attack the capital, the Liaodong border army will be scolded by 10,000 people, stick to Liaodong, the imperial court will be destroyed, what army do they belong to, and where is the way out in the future.

Su Tiancheng thought about it enough.

Chongzhen three years of crossing, to Chongzhen sixteen years, founded the Great Jin Dynasty, became the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, fourteen years, it seems not to be long, but the ups and downs, Su Tiancheng himself is very clear, his crossing, it can be said that the biggest secret of the Great Jin Dynasty, it is impossible to leak it in a lifetime.

In fact, he has read a lot of history books, and he also has some understanding of ancient things, but the overall backwardness of the dynasty can be said to be the backwardness of the entire world, but it is not something that Su Tiancheng can change, even if it is his personal understanding, he may not be able to reach the peak.

In any case, in terms of education, or from his own growth experience, including the work he was engaged in before the crossing, Su Tiancheng has a deep-rooted understanding, that is, the people must be able to eat well, to be able to dress warmly, this is the minimum requirement, officials can let themselves live a good life, but not because of the pursuit of personal interests, and damage the interests of the people, as for whether it damages the interests of the country, Su Tiancheng does not dare to guarantee in this regard, In fact, no dynasty has been able to eradicate corruption completely.

In order to establish a new dynasty in just fourteen years, Su Tiancheng has also analyzed, I am afraid that his advanced ideas have played a decisive role, don't think that the ancients are very stupid, people will not be much worse than you, but the understanding is limited.

As far as the construction of the Jiangning battalion is concerned, Su Tiancheng starts from two aspects, the first is sufficient military salary, which is the most basic guarantee, and it is the basis for the soldiers to have a sense of honor.

The second is the supreme sense of honor, which can stimulate the maximum ability of an individual, not to give him how much gold and silver treasure, but to let him show his own value, so that he feels that the goal he is fighting for is noble, it is worth sacrificing his life to do, and only when this is done can the army become infinitely stronger.

Of course, in the process of army construction, Su Tiancheng is very aware of the important role of silver, which is mainly reflected in the construction of artillery battalions, it can be said that over the years, the silver used for the construction of artillery battalions has been astronomical, but in this regard, Su Tiancheng has never been stingy with silver, and he resolutely invested when he should invest. Artillery is known as the god of war, it has been the case for hundreds of years, its importance is self-evident, although after so many battles, the Ming army and the Houjin Tatars also understood the importance of artillery, but unfortunately they have no foundation and cannot build a powerful artillery battalion.

This advanced concept is the result of the knowledge accumulated before the crossing.

No one is perfect, no gold is barefoot, Su Tiancheng knows that he also has shortcomings, and he will be content with pleasure, people are inert, so many emperors in ancient times, to say that people have no level, it is impossible, there are only a few saints in Lu, and what dynasty is always from prosperity to decline, and it has become a curse that cannot be bypassed, there are a lot of truths in it, and I can't finish it in a few days and nights, but the basic reason is probably that after a few hundred years, the emperor's power is too great, and he decides everything, You can violate the law, you can do whatever you want, up and down, the officials below are also like this, if the emperor and officials can control themselves, the dynasty will begin to prosper, if the emperor is absurd, the officials are greedy for ink, then the dynasty is bound to fall.

What Su Tiancheng is trying to do is to change this situation, otherwise the Great Jin Dynasty will also have the same fate, after the glory reaches the top, it will fall into the bottomless abyss, in order to avoid such a situation, what he needs to do, it is simple to say, two things, one is to establish a strict system, everything is done with the system, some basic systems, the emperor can not violate, for example, someone has a capital crime, Dali Temple or the criminal department trial is confirmed, even the emperor can not overturn this decision, the second is to vigorously establish a school, To improve the quality of the common people, and in the education of the school, these views are instilled, what can be done and what cannot be done, even if you are a nobleman, what you can't do, you still can't touch.

As for advocating the concept of equality for all, including the concept of human rights, Su Tiancheng will not do it for the time being, asking for complete equality between people, Su Tiancheng himself does not believe it, even after a few hundred years, such a goal has not been achieved, the amount and size of money, wealth, power, etc., can completely determine the inequality between people.
