Chapter 161: It's Done!

It's November, and the weather is getting colder. This year has been an easy year for Yansui Town.

The biggest reason is that the northern captives are relatively quiet, and only in August did the thieves tentatively attack Gaojiabao. The rest of the time and other places are mostly calm, and it is a rare peaceful year.

Every year, I shout to prevent autumn, but this year I am relaxed. The border people should be grateful to Wang Yue and Yu Zijun, the two old men who once presided over the overall situation of the northwest.

A few miles north of Yulin City, there is a key place called Hongshi Gorge, where a pass is built and heavily guarded, which is an important part of the border wall defense line. On this day, the envoy of the Northern Captives, Po Huluo, appeared outside the pass again, and the defenders of Hongshi Gorge, who had already been instructed, did not dare to make a mistake, and reported to Yulin City on flying horses.

At this time, Governor Yang was discussing with Master Cui and Fang Yingwu about sorting out the military tun, and suddenly received an urgent report from Hongshi Gorge, saying that the Tartar envoy Po Huluo had come again.

Fang Yingwu was overjoyed, and couldn't help but pat the case: "If Mandulu refuses our conditions, then Pohuluo won't waste time running again." Since he is here, it means that Mandulu is probably going to accept our terms. ”

Fang Yingwu slapped the table and looked a little out of shape, but he was really excited. If his plan becomes a reality step by step, this kind of satisfaction of strategizing is very exciting, and it greatly increases his face. What's more, as a planner, he will also have a lot of light and dark benefits.

Fang Yingwu originally just put forward countermeasures with the idea of only coming up with ideas and not being responsible for the success rate, which became a good thing, and there was nothing to lose if it didn't work - most of the dog-headed military advisors were of this trait.

At this moment, I know that there is a high probability of success. Fang Yingwu said to himself proudly: "I was just talking casually"

Governor Yang was also very excited, since he became a border minister. Who doesn't want to make a difference? But according to the imperial court system, the governor had a transcendent status. He is a civil servant, so he will not be guilty of defeat, but at the same time, even if he wins the battle, he will not record his exploits.

Therefore, although the governor of the border town is extremely powerful, it is not easy to make some eye-catching achievements, and not everyone has the ability to repair thousands of miles of border walls like the former governor Yu Zijun.

But this time Governor Yang felt that the opportunity had really come, and if Mandulu, the Khan of the Northern Captives entrenched in the Hetao area, accepted the canonization, then his performance would be no less than that of the former governor Yu Zijun. Now Lord Yu has become the secretary of the military department

Having said that, although the political significance of the canonization is greater than the practical significance, Mandulu is probably just a superficial errand. But even if it's a faΓ§ade. That's a great feat.

After the Tumubao Incident, the Ming Dynasty turned from offensive to defensive against the northern captives, and generally lost the upper hand, and the northwest border recovered hundreds of miles.

With this situation in recent decades, I am afraid that no one dares to think that the Northern Khan will accept the canonization of the imperial court, which is simply whimsical. But it was done in his appointment as governor of Yang Hao, what is this performance?

In the midst of joy, Fang Yingwu thought of the opening of the border market again. Only a few people in Yulin knew about this, if they hoarded a batch of goods in advance. You can definitely make a fortune - it's so easy to make money from policies.

However, it was said that this was the second time that Pohuluo entered Yulin City, and the treatment he had been left hanging out for the second time was very different, and Governor Yang received him as soon as possible, which was regarded as an official contact between the envoys on both sides.

Sure enough. As Fang Yingwu had predicted, Pohuluo passed on Mandulu's words, saying that they could make peace with each other. Stop fighting, and at the same time you can also accept the golden seal canonization of the Ming Dynasty. And warmly welcome the opening of the border city to communicate with each other.

But Mandulu also made his own request, if one day he led his troops to crusade against the Taishi Ji Kathlan. I hope that the Ming side will send troops to attack together.

Governor Yang couldn't make up his mind about this other condition, and he didn't agree or disagree. After sending Po Huluo to the mansion to rest, he hurriedly called Fang Yingwu to consult.

At this time, Governor Yang's trust in Fang Yingwu had reached the point of no return, and in his heart, Fang Yingwu's judgment was most likely correct. To say something rebellious, it is like Zhang Liang of the Han Dynasty.

"Of course you can't agree to this condition!" Fang Yingwu replied without thinking.

Governor Yang asked shamelessly, "I would like to hear about it." ”

Fang Yingwu pointed out: "Now that Mandulu is being oppressed too much by Gangaslan, he is not out of his own heart when he makes peace with us, it is likely that he is just forced by the situation. Then let's go with the flow and provoke the Mandu Lu tribe and the Gan Kaslan tribe to fight.

If we send troops to flank Kathlan, there is no benefit in defeat, and even if we win, what will we gain? A hard work is to take advantage of the fire for others, except for some military exploits on paper, there is very little affirmation, and most of the head goes to Namandulu.

It is conceivable that if the Jiaslan is completely defeated, the area around the Monan Hetao will be dominated by the Mandulu family. People's hearts will change, and when Mandulu is no longer restrained, it is difficult to say what his mind will become, who knows if he will become another first?

The most fundamental principle of everything we do is to adapt measures to the time and provoke infighting in the north. In order to achieve the purpose of reducing the pressure of border troubles, not to help Mantulu.

Even the opening of the border city with the Mandu Lu Ministry alone is not really for the purpose of communicating with each other, but in order to let the Gan Kaslan Department see that the Mandu Lu benefits and blush.

All in all, in my opinion, the best strategy is to let Mandulu himself and Gasilan fight each other, we can just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, there is no need to shoot by ourselves. ”

After listening to Fang Yingwu's penetrating analysis, Governor Yang made up his mind in his heart. He asked again: "Then do you think that if you don't agree to this condition, Mandulu will still accept it?" ”

Fang Yingwu sneered a few times, "Love comes or doesn't come and rolls!" This time he asked for us, not for us. Having said this, Governor Yang was relieved, and chatted with Fang Yingwu for a few more words.

At this time, the sergeant who was ordered to escort Pohuluo back to the mansion came into the house to report: "Just now after leaving the yamen, I walked through a street, and suddenly a person from Eunuch Wang came to invite the Tartar envoy. ”

Governor Yang smiled bitterly, this Wang Zhi still couldn't hold back. Fang Yingwu slapped his forehead and shouted, "It's broken"!

He then explained to Governor Yang: "That Wang Zhisheng is very obsessed with Bian Gong, and he is very short-sighted. If he heard that there was an opportunity to flank the Gathlan Division, he probably wouldn't let it go! ”

Fang Yingwu remembered that in the history books, Eunuch Wang was extremely keen on martial arts, patrolling the border all the year round, and he did whatever it took to do anything for the sake of his merits, and even killed foreign envoys and took risks. Now that there is such a good opportunity, Wang Zhi will not let it go.

This kind of military exploit is of little use to Governor Yang, because the governor does not tell about his military exploits, but he may not be able to tell others. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
