Chapter 1,000 discusses why the army is reckless
"When I talk to Lord Wang, I always feel that everything I have learned and seen in the past is useless, and I always feel terrified!"
Wang Xijue had such feelings, Wang Tong said: "The superintendent is laughing", but this topic did not continue. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
On February 17 of the 16th year of Wanli, Shenyang City became the camp of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, and the news of Liaozhen and all the soldiers and horses was reported to Shenyang for disposal.
The news of the great victory in Shenyang came back to Liaoyang, Li Chengliang's condition immediately improved, and when the news of the great victory in the Taizihe arrived, Li Chengliang could already ride a horse and move slowly.
In this case, if Wang Tong has any orders here, Liaozhen can make the best cooperation at the first time, which is very convenient.
Before the arrival of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, the two most urgent places were the siege of Shenyang, and the second was the danger of southern Liaoning, because these two places were tense, and the beacons of Liaozhen were everywhere, some of which were of course small groups of Tatars entering the country to harass, and some were local wealthy clans colluding with bandits to take advantage of the fire to rob. Now these two places have turned into safety, and the rest of the places have also quieted down, and some people don't know what to do, waiting for them is the encirclement and suppression of the army.
Before the news of Shuerhaqi's defeat could be reached, Fushun, the gateway to the east of Shenyang, was reoccupied by the Ming army of Liaozhen.
There are still small groups of ancient people in the north and northeast of Liaozhen, but the Jurchens are shrinking across the board, and according to the news reported by Tielingwei, they have killed some Jurchen thieves, but they are all Haixi Jurchens.
Now the situation in Liaozhen has actually returned to the level before the defeat of Jiefanzhai, the purpose of the Eastern Expedition has been achieved, and it is already possible to return to the dynasty, at least Wang Xijue thinks so.
"Supervisor, although Liaozhen has recovered, the war is not over yet, and it is too early to consider retreating."
Wang Tong said directly, Wang Xijue, who has always not interfered with Wang Tong's decision, is also very direct this time:
"Lord Wang, now that it is done, there is no need to use the sword and soldiers, it will cost the country's money, although the Huwei army is brave, it can run long distances, and it is also tiring, Lord Wang thinks about the soldiers, and he should also return to the customs as soon as possible to rest!"
In the end, it has been decades of ups and downs in officialdom, Wang Xijue, who has always been smiling and smiling, and speaking straightforwardly, is really unambiguous, and he is unhurried and official.
Wang Tong glanced at Wang Xijue, but said again:
"Inspector, this time the battle of Shenyang City killed all the Haixi Jurchen and the Gate G Ancient Tartars, although the Taizi River along the Jianzhou Jurchen Department has killed and injured the vitality of Jianzhou, but it has not hurt the fundamentals, and now the Jurchen departments outside the border wall are broken, and the Gate G Gu departments are suffering heavy losses, but it has given the Nanu chief a chance to integrate, if he is allowed to do it, it will inevitably become a great harm to the Ming Dynasty."
Wang Xijue's face was calm, but he took the lid of the tea bowl and skimmed the foam in the tea bowl, and said with a smile:
"The general's fame comes from the battlefield, this old man also knows, but what kind of climate can the chief of Nanu become now, Lord Wang is so persistent, he is really a killer, he can't do it, he can't do it, such a trivial matter, let the soldiers of Liaozhen do it."
"Now how can Liaozhen and other soldiers and horses still beat the Jurchens, if there is no more than twice the strength, Liaozhen does not even have the certainty of victory, if it is defeated again, the situation is erosive, and it will take a lot of effort, then why bother, and the superintendent, you see, the Nu chief asked the Ming for the corpse of his father and ancestor, and unified the Jianzhou Jurchen, this time he formed an alliance with the barbarians, recruited the Haixi Jurchens, recruited the savage Jurchens, quite strategic, these talents can not give him time to recover, if he really let him breathe, and make a situation outside the side wall, it is really a big trouble."
Wang Tong said sincerely, Wang Xijue just shook his head and smiled, although Wang Tong has been giving orders from Guannei to these wars, it has always been the dominant position, but in legal theory, Wang Xijue is the commander of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, and the next action, although Wang Xijue's attitude is not indicated, may see the meaning of opposition.
If Wang Xijue doesn't agree, the army really can't move, even if Wang Tong can take away the Huwei Army, it will become a big sin, and he will cause trouble, Wang Tong looked at Wang Xijue who was the old god, and he also understood in his heart that Wang Xijue did and thought so, and consciously did it for the country and the people.
If it is really intrigue and jealousy, it is also simple, and Wang Xijue also has faith and persistence in his heart, and now the Shilin literati are so hostile to Wang Tong, Wang Xijue dared to let Wang Tong go in the early stage, and now Wang Tong wants to go further, but Wang Xijue resolutely refuses.
In such a situation, all Wang Tong can do is convince:
"Supervisor, the ancient Men G and the Jurchen are different, the Gate G ancient Tatar nomadic steppe, there is no fixed place, the invasion of the Ming Dynasty is not for this territory, only for the property and population, otherwise when the Ministry of Answers dominates the grassland, there is the ability to go south to herd horses, why just settle in the naturalization city, this Jurchen is different, the white mountains and black waters are thousands of miles away, whether it is the Jianzhou Jurchen or the Haixi Jurchen, they are all gathering villages, farming and trade, if they are integrated and developed, they must covet my Ming Dynasty's thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, From the bitter cold land outside the gate to the Central Plains Jiangnan anointed place, they are not there farming trade, occupy a territory, they will never quit, but to operate for a long time, how do the nomadic people on the grassland know the people who govern the farming, if the ancients enter the territory of the Ming Dynasty, it will not be long before the beacon fire is everywhere, and the people rise up, if the Jurchens occupy the territory of the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that it will not be long before the population of the fields occupied by them will be used by him, and this power is also snowballing and growing. ”
Seeing that the calm expression on Wang Xijue's face became solemn, Wang Tong knew that his words had an effect, and he said while the iron was hot:
"Although Wang is a martial artist, he can read history and have experience, Sui invaded Goguryeo with poor soldiers, returned several times without success, the world was in turmoil, the country died, Tang won the world, it is said that there is a lesson from the past, Li Tang Gaozu to Gaozong is also a virtuous monarch, why the world began to conquer Goguryeo as soon as it was stable, why from Taizong to Gaozong for nearly 40 years, the war against Goguryeo has never stopped, until the destruction of the country"
Speaking of this, Wang Xijue groaned, Wang Tong talked about reading history in front of him, it was really a class axe, why did the Sui and Tang Dynasties conquer Goguryeo, of course he understood this meaning, but he didn't expect Wang Tong to actually associate Goguryeo and Jurchen together, and Wang Tong said so, thinking like this, the two are indeed similar.
"Inspector, the Jurchens are different from North Korea, the Korean people are weak, but the Jurchens are strong and barbaric, if"
Wang Tong wanted to say more, but Wang Xijue interrupted and said slowly:
"Lord Wang, your current status is already a supreme minister, but you are still so eager for your work, what is your picture?"
Wang Tong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, laughed out loud, and was a little nervous when he stated, so he simply sat down and said:
"Inspector Wang originally meant this, do you think that Wang Mou is so constantly seeking war, and he is constantly able to win, and he is constantly making meritorious contributions, this is ill-intentioned!"
didn't expect Wang Tong to say it so directly, Wang Xijue was also stunned, and then said slowly:
"Lord Wang is quick to talk, the old man is indeed unknown, everything has a plan, the old man has been cold for several years, jumped into the dragon gate into the official career, step by step to today, there is also the heart of the country and the people, but there is also a private desire to seek glory and wealth, Lord Wang is a confidant of the Son of Heaven, and has great martial arts, rich and rival the country, have reached such a point, but still so belligerent, the old man reads the book of sages, but also knows the affairs of the world, and must ask for something, but what does the king ask, what else can be asked, but the old man can't understand, can't understand, and has been fighting for many days, The soldiers are also homesick and want to rest. “
After Wang Xijue finished speaking, he leaned back on the back of the chair, but waited for Wang Tong's answer, this meaning is very clear, if Wang Tong can't give a reasonable explanation, the result can be imagined.
Wang Tong looked at Wang Xijue and smiled:
"Supervisor, if Wang said that he was warlike and had a great ambition to sweep away the Tartar barbarians around the territory of the Ming Dynasty and expand the territory for the Ming Dynasty, would this reason work?"
Wang Xijue shook his head with a smile, Wang Tong also smiled, and said:
"In this world, no one wants to believe the righteous and awe-inspiring words, saying that they are seeking profit, but everyone is serious."
After saying this, Wang Tong took out a fold from his arms and handed it to Wang Xijue, and continued with a smile:
"Inspector, take a look, I didn't want to take it out so early."
Wang Xijue opened the fold and looked at it a few times, but his expression was solemn, but Wang Tong took Wang Xijue's pen and ink inkstone by himself, sharpened the ink by himself, and after grinding, he picked up the brush and wrote a few words on the fold, and then stamped his own private seal, handed it to Wang Xijue, and then asked:
"Inspector, will the Jianzhou Jurchens fight or not?"
Looking at the fold in his hand, Wang Xijue was silent there for a long time, and when he looked up at Wang Tong again, his expression was already quite complicated.
On February 25, the superintendent Wang Xijue, the chief general Wang Tong, the superintendent Chen Ju, and the general of Liaozhen Li Chengliang summoned the Eastern Expeditionary Army and the generals of Liaozhen.
Inspector Wang Xijue thought that the evil was exhausted, and the Tartars could not be allowed to have a chance to breathe, so he ordered the eastern expeditionary army to all directions, and Liaozhen had 5,000 elite cavalry and 30,000 foot soldiers, and sent troops to build a state.
This time did not leave the foot soldiers of Ji Town to guard, but set off together, Liao Zhen also used the old foundation this time, but this foot soldier is basically used for the people, Lin Lin finally counted, the total number of troops who went out to Jianzhou this time was nearly 70,000, and they were all the elite of the Ming Dynasty, and the scale was amazing.
When Wang Tong led the troops to fight, Wang Xijue sat in the rear, on the one hand, this matter is trust, on the other hand, it is not close and harmonious with each other, you must know that other civil ministers command the army, but they have to sit in the army, but when they are in Shenyang, Wang Xijue and Wang Tong often talk deeply, and this relationship seems to be very close, and everyone is wondering-
