Chapter 1068: Cavalry Tactics

The news of Concubine Min's brother and sister-in-law entering Beijing reached the Jiangcheng Marquis Mansion.

"I wanted to fight with Jungar back then, and I fought with him."

Bai Yan gossiped with the eldest princess, and said while drinking tea: "That is a majestic prairie man, born rough, what do you know when you see our first sentence?" ”

Princess Celestia said, "What? ”

Bai Yan couldn't help laughing, "He said, you little white-skinned, weak southerners!" I don't know who he learned the word weak from him, it's awkward to say. ”

Princess Celestia couldn't help but laugh when she imagined that scene, and suddenly realized something, "That's not right." The last time they entered the palace, I happened to go to greet the imperial sister-in-law, and I caught a glimpse from a distance, and Concubine Min's brother didn't seem to be tall. ”

"That's why it's funny."

Bai Yan said: "When we fought, we were all on horses, and I only saw his thick figure, thinking that he was a very tall man. When the war was over, he became our prisoner, and we dismounted and found that he was much shorter than me. ”

At that time, he was also surprised, and said that I looked white and thin, how could I be so much taller than him? I thought it was funny, so I opened my sleeves and told him that we like men who look thin in their clothes and have flesh in their clothes. ”

The eldest princess was amused by him and giggled, and Tuan Tuan and Yuanyuan on the bed didn't know when they woke up, watching their father and mother talking and laughing.

Laughing so much that my mouth watered.

The eldest princess couldn't help but laugh even more, "In this way, you and him are still old acquaintances. It's a pity that they met on the battlefield and were still enemy soldiers, and this friendship was inevitably delicate. ”

Bai Yan waved his hand, "There are no enemy troops, and now everyone is a family." I have ordered someone to invite him to come to the camp of the Jiangcheng army in two days, and I will compete with him in archery, horseback riding, and wrestling. Although Jungar was defeated by us, the cavalry tactics of their steppe nomads should not be underestimated, and they could learn from it. ”

When the eldest princess heard this, she thought deeply, "Since this is the case, it is better to persuade them to stay longer." I've heard Concubine Min mention one or two, and now Jungger is sincerely afraid, and he wants to please the court. If they could have sacrificed their cavalry tactics without reservation, the court would have been less suspicious of Zhungar. ”

"It's still a smart lady, this method can be described as a win-win situation."

Bai Yan said: "Then I will write tomorrow to ask the emperor to leave Zhungeer to make an envoy, but I am afraid that the other armies will complain again when they hear this, saying that our Jiangcheng army is relying on the eldest princess to do nonsense and take advantage of it." ”

Princess Celestia lifted her chin, "Who isn't convinced?" Let him come to me! ”

Bai Yan sneered.

He found that the current eldest princess has more and more of the momentum of the queen mother......

In the early morning of the next day, Yuanzhi focused on talking to the ministers about Bai Yan's letter.

"I immediately wrote a letter, asking me to keep Jungar to envoy, and ask Zhungar to teach the steppe cavalry tactics to our army, what do you Aiqing think?"

The war in Jungar has only been subsided for a long time, and the ministers of the DPRK and China are quite taboo when it comes to this.

But yes or no, you have to have an attitude.

Everyone's eyes were staring ahead, one was the first assistant Su Zhiming, and the other was the regent Prince Yong, and looked at the attitude of the two of them.

Su Zhiming stood up first, "Your Majesty, this is a good thing. Now Jungar is also our subordinate territory, that is, we have steppe cavalry. Let the cavalry of the steppe and the cavalry of the Central Plains learn from each other and communicate with each other, so that our forces can be stronger. Of course—"

He added, "Jungar has just been regained, and it is not enough to be trusted too much for the time being." If the emperor is wary in his heart, he only needs to let our generals learn the tactics of the steppe cavalry, and don't expose our core tactics too early. ”

Yuan Zhi nodded after hearing this, and looked at others again.

But a military general stood up, "Your Majesty, I'm just afraid that this matter is inappropriate, right?" Our army defeated Zungar, which means that our tactics are better, so why bother to learn Zungar? After all, they are barbarians. ”

Listening to the tone was quite disdainful.

When Bai Yan heard this, he couldn't help but stand up, "General Qi's words are wrong. Our tactics are naturally good, and we can't do without the right time, place and people, so that we can win a big victory over Zhunger. Jungar is a remnant of the army, and it may not be a tactical defeat to us. If you can learn from his strengths and improve yourself, won't you have to worry about the rebellion of the steppe tribes in the future? ”

General Qi became angry, "The horse is so keen to make friends with Zhungeer, I don't know why?" Could it be that if you fight a battle, you will become friends? Or are you friends in the first place? ”

This is an astonishing statement, and his heart can be punished.

Bai Yan usually hears people jealous and sarcastic Jiang Chengjun behind his back, he doesn't want to hear it in the court today, he has the heart to refute, and he is afraid that it will not look good in the court to argue.

It doesn't matter if he loses his face, as a colt, it's not good for him to lose royal face.

"General Qi's words are excessive."

One person stood up among the officials, it was Sima Hu, "What, do you mean that you still say that the horse can't collaborate with the enemy?" Where is the evidence? You give me the evidence, and we will impeach you on your behalf, so you don't need to accuse Sang and scold Huai here! ”

Evidence......

General Qi flinched.

Where did the evidence come from, he was just a mouthful.

Sima Hu let out a sigh of relief in his nose and eyes, "In my opinion, this proposal of the colt is indeed a little inappropriate. The Jiangcheng army defeated Jungar, so there was no need to learn. General Qi should be allowed to study hard, after all, if you lead the army, you may not be able to defeat Jungar! ”

I don't know who was snickering underneath, and for a while, low laughter swept through.

Motoji couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly, and quickly pulled it back, lest people see him smile.

Fortunately, at this time, Prince Yong stood up, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the proposal of the concubine is good. In addition to exercising the physique and skills of the soldiers, the art of war is also very important. Only by continuous learning and progress can we remain invincible. Although there is no war now, there is nothing wrong with being prepared for danger in times of peace. ”

The ministers all expressed their opinions, and Yuan Zhi opened his mouth to make peace, "The opinions of the secretaries are reasonable, so let's take the Jiangcheng Army as a pilot and organize the cavalry of the Jiangcheng Army to learn the grassland cavalry tactics." Don't reveal the secrets of our army in the process, don't give them a secret. It's not that they don't believe in the Dzungars, it's that they've just been annexed, and time will test their loyalty. ”

"Yes."

Bai Yan suddenly rejoiced, with Yuanzhi's words, this matter would be implemented more smoothly.

Yuanzhi said: "I will tell the envoys of Zhungeer to come and ask them to stay in the capital for a while longer. If this can be done, I will reward it. ”
