Chapter 248: The Dumbest Decision
Lao Liu Tou taught Jiang Hao how to use a gun next to him, in fact, Jiang Hao could use it, but he also pretended to be in contact for the first time, and Jiang Hao learned it in time, and when he came to the place where the gun was tested, after loading gunpowder, he shot at the target twenty meters away.
"Boom~"
After a loud bang, he saw that there was a round hole the size of a finger on the wooden target, Jiang Hao nodded with satisfaction, the strength and accuracy were very good, it could be said that it was already the best gun in this era.
This gun is the most exquisite equipment in this era, but for Jiang Hao, it is very backward, it can only be fired once, and it takes one minute to reload gunpowder bullets, which cannot be compared with the firearms of later generations, and the practicality is too poor.
Develop modern guns yourself?
Forget it, the entire industrial technology is simply not up to scratch.
Quality is not enough quantity.
Jiang Hao said to Lao Liu: "According to this size, can you build a double-piped?" ”
Lao Liu Tou immediately said, "Yes, it's just more troublesome, the gun body is larger, and two sets of trigger mechanisms are installed side by side, so you need to be careful when firing." ”
"Then build me two more according to the size of this one." Jiang Hao commanded.
Lao Liu Tou immediately agreed.
It's good to be a supervisor, and he doesn't need to notify King Ning, he has the right to order these craftsmen to do things.
......
Time flies, and it has reached the spring of the fourteenth year of Zhengde.
For more than a year, Jiang Hao has become the most respected and trusted person around King Ning, and King Ning is also very good to Jiang Hao, and he rewarded Jiang Hao with a beautiful Ji Muxue, who is also a beautiful woman.
And Jiang Hao also completely mastered the entire logistics system of King Ning.
On this day, Jiang Hao had just gotten up, Min'er and Mu Xue were waiting for Jiang Hao to get dressed, when a guard from King Ning's side came, "Master Jiang, the prince has something urgent, please come over." ”
"Do you know what's going on?" Jiang Hao asked.
"I don't know, but the prince was very angry and smashed a few beloved vases." The guard said.
Jiang Hao nodded.
When he came to the main hall on the second floor, he saw that the ground was full of broken porcelain, King Ning stood still in front of a map of the Ming Dynasty with his hands behind his back, Jiang Hao went over and saluted, and asked, "Lord Wang, why is it unhappy." ”
King Ning turned around, with an angry look on his face, and said, "My previous plan failed. ”
Jiang Hao pondered for a while, and then knew what the plan was that King Ning was talking about, "What the prince said is to let the prince pass on to His Majesty." ”
"That's it, I spent a lot of money on Yang Tinghe and Qian Ning, they all said it in Zhu Houzhao's ear, Zhu Houzhao was also a little moved, which Cheng wanted Jiang Bin and Zhang Zhong to mix up next to him, and slandered me and ruined my good deeds, so that I fell short."
Speaking of this, King Ning pointed to the map of the Ming Dynasty and said with a hideous face: "I think that back then, when Zhu Di fought the world, he still raised troops under the persuasion of the ancestor Ning Wangquan, and sent the strongest Duoyan Sanwei to assist, Zhu Di said that he had won the equal division of the brothers in the world, but what was the result, the ancestor was stripped of his military power and thrown to Jiangxi to retire, but he became the emperor." ”
"Now Zhu Houzhao has no virtue and no way, and what is even more ridiculous is that there are three thousand beauties in the harem, but he can't even give birth to an heir, doesn't this indicate that he Zhu Di's line is going to be cut off, I sent my deceased son to be the prince, which happened to be the same thing back then, but Zhu Houzhao directly refused, which is really infuriating."
Jiang Hao looked at the angry King Ning, and only felt funny in his heart, what happened a hundred years ago, now you take it out as a rhetoric, whoever listens to you is originally a lie, several generations of emperors have passed, and no one remembers those anymore, so you use it as a reason for yourself.
"How is the prince ready?" Jiang Hao asked.
King Ning slapped the table, "He Zhu Houzhao is unkind, don't blame me Zhu Chenhao for being unjust, Zhu Houzhao has no virtue and no way, I will overthrow him and take the throne myself." ”
Jiang Haoxin said, haven't you always thought so in your heart.
"I'm afraid it's not easy." Jiang Hao said.
"If it was easy, I would have done it a long time ago, why should I endure it for more than ten years." King Ning said angrily, "You are my confidant, you can tell me if there is any good plan." ”
"I don't know how many soldiers the prince has." Jiang Hao asked.
"In addition to the 3,000 palace guards, you can also gather 30,000 people, and these people can be issued with equipment when the time comes, which can also be used." Ning Wang said.
Jiang Hao pondered for a moment and said, "I have three strategies: upper, middle and lower. ”
King Ning was overjoyed, "Hurry up and listen to it." ”
"The best strategy is to be a light teacher, take it by surprise, and go straight to the Beijing division. The prince told me that many eunuchs around the emperor have accepted the benefits of the prince, and there are many court officials, as long as the prince successfully controls the Jingshi, it should not be difficult for these people to change their ways. ”
King Ning frowned after hearing this, and said after a while: "This method is good, but it is too risky, what about the middle strategy." ”
"The middle strategy is to take Jinling directly, control the north and south of the river, advance to attack, retreat to defend, and wait for the army to move north." Jiang Hao said.
Hearing this, King Ning's eyes lit up, and he nodded: "This is good, Jinling's defense is lax, but the geographical location is very important, and it is indeed a good strategy to take Jinling." By the way, there's a plan. ”
"The next strategy is for him to sit in Nanchang and fight steadily."
After hearing this, King Ning did not immediately veto, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Actually, this strategy is okay, it is better for us to take Nanchang as the foundation, and then seek Jinling." ”
After hearing King Ning say this, Jiang Hao could only shake his head in his heart,
said the upper, middle and lower strategies, but you fancy the lowest policy, from this point can also be seen that although King Ning is arrogant, he is a person who is unwilling to take risks.
In this way, it is even more difficult to achieve great things.
A hundred years ago, the rebellious old-timers of the Zhu family demonstrated that after three years of rebellion, they only fought for territory in the north, but they were getting weaker and weaker, and in the end there was no way, seeing that it would be over if it dragged on any longer, and a blitzkrieg came to a desperate fight, and he rushed thousands of miles to penetrate the Beijing Division, and finally let him succeed.
Jiang Hao believed that the clan war and the peasant war were completely different.
The clan war can't be confined to the gains and losses of one city and one place, most of the civil and military officials don't care who is the emperor in your family, besides, most of the current ministers of the court and the central government don't like Zhu Houzhao either, and they can't wait to change it.
Only the rebels occupy the Beijing Division, as long as the interests of the officials can be guaranteed, they will recognize whoever wins, because they know that even if another Zhu family member comes to power, they will not be able to change them, unlike the peasant war, which is a complete reversal and a big change of blood from top to bottom.
In fact, if Zhu Chenhao agrees to take Jinling directly, forming a north-south confrontation, and then propagating what is the case today, when there is no way to go today, and there is no heir in the sky, Zhu Chenhao still has a chance to succeed, even if he does not succeed, he will not lose as quickly and so miserably as in history.
It's a pity that this fool chose the most unsuccessful strategy, announced a rebellion in Nanchang, and then attacked Anqing all the way, Anqing couldn't attack for a long time, but the nest was raided by Wang Shouren, and then Zhu Chenhao made a more brainless decision, waved Nanchang to rescue, and finally was wrapped in dumplings.
Therefore, success and failure are self-inflicted, and I can't blame others.
