Chapter 51 The appearance of the Ming officialdom can be regarded as the emperor Li Weigong
Lichen looked at Zhu Zaikai, whose eyes were shining, and sighed helplessly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info The little guy is still too small. There are too many things he doesn't understand. It is estimated that he only regarded leading the troops as a game, and did not know that leading the troops to fight was a big gamble with the lives of countless people, including his own.
This is not an outing of spring flowers and snow!
But the opportunity is rare, and not everyone can learn from the side of the Datang military god. And the time is only one year.
For this opportunity, Lichen owes a great favor to the earth.
The favor of a cultivator is really not so easy to owe.
The army below packed up the battlefield and prepared to return with their own victories as if they had dreamed of victory.
Victory is the best way to grow the army, but I don't know what kind of attitude the Ming officialdom will have towards this incredible victory.
"Master, when am I going to be a general?" Zhu Zaikai didn't feel that he had any problem with leading troops. Confidence is quite high. This point came out of the same mold as his father Zhu Houzhao.
"Wait until you grow up. Wait until you have enough conditions. Standing above the clouds, Lichen replied.
"Master, are you lying to me?" The little guy Zhu Zaikai was not happy, his mouth was so upturned that he could hang up the oil pot, and his eyes flashed and began to brew the doomsday flood, obviously, if he couldn't get a satisfactory answer, the little guy really dared to cry loudly to the dust.
Lichen didn't see it well, and immediately comforted: "It's not so easy to be a general, you have to learn the ability to lead troops to fight first!" ”
When the little guy heard it, he thought too! Hurriedly asked, "Where to study?" ”
The dust finally blocked the that was about to collapse.
"There," Lichen pointed to the Great Army Road that was heading away in triumph at his feet.
"Zaikai" suddenly squatted down, looked at Zhu Zaikai as highly, and said: "One day, your father and emperor will finally leave, and you will become the master of this country, you have to know what your people are thinking and needing." When you stand high above the clouds like you do today, you may be able to see farther, but you also have to bend down to see better. Only by knowing all this can you truly become a good emperor loved by the people, you know? ”
Zhu Zaikai nodded as if he didn't understand, it was the first time he had seen his master speak to himself like this.
"In the far west, there is a kingdom similar to ours, but they have been divided, but civilization has remained. They have a word that you should keep firmly in your heart. "If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight" means that the throne is not only a right, but also a responsibility! Lichen admonished word by word.
"In the West, is it as far away as the Tianshan Mountains?" Zhu Zaikai asked cautiously.
"A place farther than the Tianshan Mountains," the dust solemnly returned.
"That's so far!" Zhu Zaikai actually didn't have much sense of distance, but at least he heard his father say that the Tianshan Mountains were very far away. But Shigong said that it is farther away than the Tianshan Mountains, how far should it be?
"Little one, when you sit in your father's place, you will be able to see them, they are almost at the door of Da Ming's house," Lichen sighed lightly.
"Then I must personally lead the army, and they will rush back!" Zhu Zaikai clenched his little fist very firmly.
"Of course, but rush back and hurry back, at least they have a lot of things to learn. They will all be your teachers, role models, and enemies. The Ming Dynasty is the overlord of the East and the master of Asia, and it is necessary to have a master of all rivers and rivers to absorb and learn the temperament, understand? ”
"Oh!" Zhu Zai Kai obviously didn't understand.
Lichen smiled and said, "Then let's go home first, you will know a lot of things later." ”
Zhu Zaikai may not have too many opportunities to really lead the troops, but at least he must know the soldiers, so that he will not be fooled, and he will not command blindly. Only such an emperor can really win the support of the army and consolidate the country. An emperor without the support of an army is a puppet of officials, and an emperor with an army is the real king. For example, the little guy's ancestors, Emperor Taizu and Emperor Yongle.
The little guy's time is running out, and Emperor Zhengde reversed his fate, but I'm afraid he can't wait for the day when he can really smooth the handover with the crown prince.
The little guy's path is destined for intrigue and blood. But only in this way can the little guy really grow into an amazing emperor.
Lichen can't help him, and won't help him. The little one has to go his own way. Where can he go, the dust will quietly watch in the blessed land of Qingcheng Mountain.
Too much involvement is not a good thing. Now as long as I teach the little prince to grow up slowly, at least the little prince will have a lot of knowledge that will not be available in this era, and he can also see a lot of things that cannot be seen in the palace.
Most of the Ming monarchs in the world are immediate emperors, why?
Because only such an emperor who has grown up will know the suffering of the people, and only such an emperor can have the ability to control the officials of the world. No matter how many Confucians are invited in the palace, they will not be taught to be an excellent king. There is a good chance that the King of the Dead Kingdom will appear.
When Lichen returned to Nanjing with Zhu Zaikai, Nanjing had not yet received the news of the victory, and the whole city was still panicked, but the military horses that reported the victory should have already arrived on the way, right?
In the next few days, the dust in Jinling City took Zhu Zaikai to watch a wonderful drama.
The good news flew in, and the whole city should have celebrated, but what Zhu Zaikai didn't expect was that the people of Jinling panicked even more. If it weren't for the officers and soldiers who strictly guarded the four gates, maybe Nanjing would have become an empty city.
This is not only because of the plague, but also because the people really don't have even the slightest confidence in the army around them.
If it weren't for the notorious Japanese who came this time, and there was no possibility of dividing the river in Nanjing, maybe there would have been people who were ready to open the door to welcome the surrender.
The people of Jinling don't believe it, and the officials won't believe it. The generals of the Ming Dynasty made false reports, lied reports, and killed too many good people. So much so that the Nanjing Military Department didn't even make a move to verify it.
So the army, which had been in high spirits with a triumphant victory, suffered the first blow.
Stern reprimands and strict orders to stop advancing.
The soldiers naturally did not do it, and continued to march towards Jinling regardless of the anger of Yingtian.
The officials of Jinling were furious and soon regarded their army as enemies.
Not only was it reprimanded more severely, but it also hinted that the local government had stopped supplying the army with food and grass.
"Shigong, why doesn't Nanjing's military department believe it?" Zhu Zaikai heard about this in the dusty study, and asked very puzzled.
"Because it's incredible! It's even more because of inertia! Lichen replied.
"Then they're not going to check it out?" Zhu Zaikai asked strangely.
"The official master thinks no, they trust their own judgment," replied with a smile.
"What if the truth is revealed?" Zhu Zaikai asked.
There is no one in Jinling who knows the truth of the matter better than him and Lichen, and Zhu Zaikai will naturally believe that there will be a day when things will come to light.
"The official master will not be wrong, the fault must be that army." Liao Chen replied meaningfully: "Even if those armies arrive in Jinling, there are so many heads and war examples of the same thing. Until your father himself asks for it."
"But that's the truth!" Zhu Zaikai muttered incredulously.
"There is no need for facts, whether the people believe it or not, they just believe it themselves," Lichen smiled.
Things in officialdom have never changed for thousands of years. Zhao Gaoneng refers to the deer as a horse, and the officials of the Ming Dynasty can do the same.
Just when Chen and Zhu Zaikai were talking about the officials of Jinling, countless pieces of news finally came into Jinling City.
Countless officials looked shocked and couldn't believe their ears, and at the same time, many officials instantly turned white.
It's a big oolong, and there is such a mistake in a good achievement, how can this be good?
It is very difficult, very difficult to make officials know their mistakes and correct them. Officials are not saints, and the first thing that comes to mind must be to cover the lid.
In any era, in any country, people in officialdom will consciously or unconsciously begin to compile a wide net for the sake of self-preservation or progress. Protecting officials is not a joke. The Ming Dynasty's teachers, fellow villagers, the same year, and the relationship between colleagues have long been blatantly built an unbreakable net within the Ming Dynasty. Touch the whole body and move the whole body, otherwise a single civil official, without the backing of the big net behind them, do they really dare not be afraid of death and the emperor will open the brush?
The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty is a wonder, and what is even more strange is that the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty has never been a secret.
The officials thought that they could cover the real news tightly, but they didn't expect that when they were busy in order to top Wusha and sit down the official chairs, everyone in Jinling City who should know the news knew it.
But so what?
When the army had not yet arrived in Nanjing, the Nanjing Military Department deprived the military god borrowed by Chenchen of military power, and then sent money in the name of reward for the soldiers to return to the station, waiting for the imperial court to reward them.
Officials in Nanjing have to say that they are all masters, and they can turn bad things into good things.
The soldiers received only a pitiful reward, but the general's immediate superiors were very excited and decided to add two to five, and took the credit into his arms.
After changing the name of the letter requesting merit, it was quickly sent to the Beijing division thousands of miles away, and while the Ming officialdom was celebrating the officials, he would never consider the feelings of the officers and soldiers in that army and the consequences in the future.
After Zhu Zaikai listened to Chen's final information in the study, his little face was full of surprise and anger for a moment, and he shouted that he was going to tell his father.
Lichen smiled and pulled the little guy back and said, "Look at it, and cherish it!" How could such a good drama end like this? ”
As the god of the Tang Dynasty, after being borrowed by Lichen to replace him in a small battle that lost face, what made this Li Weigong even more incredible was the court's treatment of this army that had finally won the battle.
Li Weigong, who is also an old fox, can be regarded as having truly seen what darkness is. Not to mention that compared with the Zhenguan period of Jun Ming and Chenxian, it is compared with the end of the Sui Dynasty, and it has done everything better!
Although Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was indispensable at that time, there was never such a naked deprivation of military merits and distortion of black and white!
Li Weigong is an old fox, although he came in front of himself and looked down on the army he led, but as a general's duty, even if he knew that it was inappropriate, he immediately wrote a defense document and sent it to the military department. He was even ready to sue for the royal complaint.
A few days later, Li Wei was promoted to one rank, but he remained in his post. This is a warning and a reassurance.
Don't toast and don't eat and drink, a little military attache still wants to turn the sky upside down.
Li Weigong got angry, left the army in a fit of anger, and after writing a letter of resignation, he didn't wait for the Ministry of War to reply, and went directly to the dust mansion alone, and came to visit the Taoist real person who got him.
Lichen is very happy, no matter whether the book "Taizong and Li Weigong Ask the Right Question" is apocryphal, this is a rare master of the art of war and a famous general in Chinese history. Zhu Zaikai has his teaching, but it is a rare opportunity.
Li Weigong's actions can be regarded as a taboo in officialdom, but they also fall into the hands of some officials in Jinling. Soon the instructions of the imperial court were issued.
After Dangchen gave Li Weigong the decision of the Nanjing Military Department and the recital of Beijing, Rao is Li Weigong also gasped, and after a long sigh, he taught Zhu Zaikai the basic common sense of using soldiers with peace of mind.
It's a bit of a chicken killing with a knife. If possible, Lichen even wanted this to go to the Daming Lecture Hall under construction to be the headmaster.
However, it is against the way of heaven for Lichen to borrow the soul of the heroic spirit to borrow the corpse to return the soul. It's nice to keep him for three months. How dare Xiao think so much?
Zhu Zaikai has a lot to learn, in addition to the art of war, national politics, power arts, and public sentiment, there are countless homework waiting for him.
Kindness! The tasks are heavy, but they are all necessary. Zhu Zaikai has no right to object.
Fortunately, Zhu Zai seems to be still enjoying it! Hehe.
Lichen wrote what he saw and heard into a letter, and then asked Zhu Zaikai to add a lot of what he wanted to say, and sent it to Jingshi. I believe that Zhu Houzhao will be very relieved and angry when he sees it!
The news that a group of 3,000 Japanese was defeated by an army of the Great Ming Guard is not without shock. It not only shocked the people and gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, but also shocked the Japanese pirates on the sea.
No matter how much hatred there was between the would-be pirates, the scattered pirates finally gathered in a rare way. Under the organization of the Daming maritime merchants, a rare team of 8,000 people landed again and came towards Nanjing.
Right! That's right, it was the Japanese army organized by the Daming maritime merchants who attacked the southern capital of the Ming Dynasty.
This army is not small, and it is even under the banner of revenge, killing continuously along the way, breaking through three county towns in one night, and killing rivers of blood.
After greeting him, he once again aimed at Jinling, and without hesitation, he went straight to Jinling and swaggered to burn and kill.
The Jinling military department is numb to the claws, the six departments of Jinling are numb to the claws, and the entire Nanzhili is numb to the claws.
Urgent documents flew to the capital, and orders flew to all the armies in the south of the Ming Dynasty. The Japanese are clearly coming towards Jinling, this is a big deal! (To be continued.) )
