When Xu Huizu entered the palace, he happened to bump into the three pavilions, and the latter three of them greeted him first, "I have seen Wei Guogong." ”

The three of them gave up, Xu Huizu hurriedly returned the salute, and then asked, "Three pavilion elders, is it for the sake of the southwest?" ”

The three nodded, "Exactly." ”

Xu Huizu hesitated a little, "What does Your Majesty mean, is this battle to be fought or not?" ”

Storm Zhao glanced at Xu Huizu meaningfully, "Your Majesty has his own holy judgment, and we can't figure it out as courtiers, but Wei Guogong, with all due respect, the old man said bluntly, Guogong is the head of the martial arts, and he still has to strictly discipline his subordinates on weekdays. ”

After speaking, Tyrant Zhao gave another salute and went straight down the steps of the palace, Fang Xiaoru followed, leaving only Yu Xin alone, and ordered Xu Huizu, "Although the generals of the Five Armies Governor's Mansion have contributed to the country, they must also remember the way of monarchs and ministers, Your Majesty took the initiative to retreat this time in order to take care of Wuxun's feelings." ”

Sange left, Xu Huizu suddenly smiled bitterly, this time Mu Chun's matter, he was burdened with a heavy black cauldron.

Zhu Yunwen didn't want to fight, how could he Xu Huizu not know in his heart, who knew which of the martial artists in the Wufu was crazy, he had to shout to avenge Mu Chun, and stepped on the Luchuan River, Xu Huizu blocked it, and they even dared to go directly to the book to enter the big house!

If Zhu Yunwen doesn't fight, it will be too frustrating for Daming's backbone, this group of martial artists will hold the holy will hostage this time, won't they be afraid of being liquidated in the future?

Xu Huizu sighed, stepped into the hall of the body, and bowed respectfully, "Minister Xu Huizu knocked to see my emperor's holy bow." ”

At this time, Xu Huizu didn't dare to salute, and kowtowed on the ground in a proper manner.

"I have said it, Wu Xun is exempt from kneeling, get up quickly."

Behind the imperial case, Zhu Yunwen's voice was very brisk, Xu Huizu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, looked up and looked carefully, Zhu Yunwen looked relaxed, not like angry.

Zhu Yunwen glanced at him, "Do you have flowers on my face?" ”

Xu Huizu smiled, quickly looked at the ground, and arched his hand, "I don't know what Your Majesty summoned me?" ”

"It's not for the Duke of Dian State." Zhu Yunwen sighed, "The Duke of Dian has made great contributions to the court, and this death festival is really painful, so I just discussed the war in the southwest with the three pavilion elders, and I plan to send troops to the southwest and summon you, because I have some considerations and want to discuss with you." ”

Xu Huizu's heart jumped, the emperor said personally, it seems that this battle is decided, and he can't help but worry, the battle in the southwest, I'm afraid the scale is not small, the new army in Beijing has just been established, and I don't know how to practice.

"Your Majesty, according to the ministers, the scale should still be controlled." Xu Huizu organized the language, "Luchuan territory, the army can't let go of it even if it goes too much, it's better to order the troops of Sichuan and Guizhou to enter Yunnan, and Mu Sheng will lead them to Luchuan to stay for a year and a half, and come back after steadily gaining some results, which can be regarded as an explanation." ”

Senior soldiers talk about politics, Xu Huizu is the head of the martial arts, of course, he thinks more about how to keep the same political position with the emperor at all times, fighting and killing, opening up territory and everything is no longer important to him, other generals are looking forward to fighting and making meritorious contributions, he is already high in the country, what is the use of credit to him?

The emperor really crowned him a king when he was alive, and he should consider choosing a good coffin for himself, Xu Huizu only thought about how to follow Zhu Yunwen's mind and prevaricate this matter into a small matter.

Zhu Yunwen chuckled and said, "You thought of it with me in the front, but you guessed wrong in the back, the battle is naturally going to be fought, and it must be fought to the end, according to my meaning, since you want to use the knife, it is best to cut off the heads of the knife Gan Meng and Hu Jili, so that it can be regarded as comforting the spirit of the Duke of Dian in the sky." ”

Xu Huizu was a little embarrassed, "Your Majesty, Annan is a country after all, and if you want to destroy a country, you have to have a large army." ”

"That's why I called you to come over and discuss, I have an idea in my heart, it's not very mature, you can listen and see where you need to add."

"Your Majesty, please."

Zhu Yunwen got up, Xu Huizu hurriedly stood up, but found that the former walked straight to the map hanging on the wall on the side.

"Come and see."

Zhu Yunwen took the whip handed by Shuangxi, and pointed at the positions of Luchuan and Annan, "At the beginning of Luchuan's rebellion, why couldn't the army of Dao Ganmeng defeat Mu Chun?" ”

Xu Huizu replied, "It's just a barbarian, and if you don't know the military formation, where can you have the ability to command an army of 200,000?" ”

"In my opinion, this is only one of them."

Zhu Yunwen waved his hand, "The army of Dao Ganmeng said that it was an army, but it was just a group of indigenous farmers, talking slowly, even bows and arrows, guns and spears were not ready, I read the book at the beginning of the year, most of them were used in the field of farm tools, such a group of rabble, where can I win the Ming Jing Cavalry."

But it is also this group of rebels, when the battlefield is pulled into the hills and dense forests, they can be ghostly, using traps, cold guns and arrows to frequently harass our army, including attacking our army's logistics, and in the end, causing Mu Chun's army to be unable to advance or retreat, tired of running for their lives, so that Hu Jili took advantage of it and lost his life. ”

Zhu Yunwen finally sighed, "This is the mold of guerrilla warfare." ”

Guerrilla warfare?

Xu Huizu was confused, "What is guerrilla warfare?" ”

Zhu Yunwen glanced at him, "A tactic of fighting more with less and resisting the strong with the weak, can be summed up in sixteen words: the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbs me, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I chase!" ”

Xu Huizu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he exclaimed, "The minister has been immersed in the army for decades, but it is the first time I have heard that Your Majesty is a scholar and a celestial, and such a subtle military strategy can be said, and the minister admires it." ”

This sycophant.

Zhu Yunwen muttered in his heart, but still shook his head, "This tactic is really powerful when used well, but the limitations are also very great, and it is very dependent on the combat location and mobility. ”

After a pause, Zhu Yunwen continued, "Luchuan, Annan, the terrain is hilly and dense, my Ming army is not adaptable, the dignified and upright division is introduced, the formation will naturally disperse, giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of, if you want to defeat the enemy in this kind of place, according to my opinion, you should train the new army."

From Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou three health centers, pick the body short and flexible, good at trekking mountains and rivers to form an army, throw into the Luchuan boundary training, with five or six people as a small team to cooperate with the exercise, after being familiar with the geography of Luchuan, with short-bladed fine armor, handcuffs and gunpowder, at that time, it should be much easier to break the enemy. ”

Zhu Di's Yan Wangwei gave Zhu Yunwen inspiration, according to local conditions, the southwest can't pull thousands of troops and horses, but you can train a mountain battalion!

Daming Kyushu, there are athletes in the north, there are mountain people in the south, what kind of military branch you want to train is not short of people, just a Luchuan, Annan, can you still stop the Heavenly Empire?

Xu Huizu was dumbfounded, looked at Zhu Yunwen in disbelief, and said convincingly for a long time, "My emperor's talent, minister, convinced!" ”

Zhu Yunwen frowned, "Don't be busy patting your ass, I didn't ask you to praise me, stand up for me, think about it, if there is anything that needs to be added, the military is important, you must be foolproof." ”

Xu Huizu hurriedly got up, "Your Majesty's thoughts and thoughts have been leaked, the minister is incompetent, and he can't be attached, in terms of courage, the minister feels that if you want to train this new army, the number of people should be less than more, and 30,000 people should be enough." ”

Zhu Yun shook his head, "Yes, it is inevitable that the command will not be smooth, in the mountains and dense forests, the military orders are not clear, and more often than not, it is necessary to command independently according to the time and place, so I plan to only pick 20,000 people, every 2,000 people are an independent battalion, not under each other, at that time, after scattering into the Luchuan territory, the commander of each battalion is the main general, and there is only cooperation between the battalions and the battalions, and there is no master and slave."

As for logistics, during the training of the army, the logistics supply was provided from Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guizhou with 100,000 guards, and in wartime, the mountain battalions went deep into the hinterland of Luchuan and Annam to collect food on the spot. “

Collecting food on the spot, that is, robbing the local people, indulging military discipline, and not knowing how many bloody cases will be committed.

Xu Huizu hesitated and spoke, "Your Majesty, do you want to think about this, I am afraid that there will be corrupt rumors at that time, which will hurt Your Majesty's holy name." ”

Zhu Yunwen waved his hand, "The enemy attacked me with guerrillas, I should return it with guerrillas, the army went deep into the enemy's belly, and I was elusive, where can I find the logistics?" If a stronghold is set up, won't it become a frontal battle again? It's better to die them than to die to my Daming Erlang, you will draw up a training brochure in the past two days, and after I read it, I will go to the southwest to form a new army, and I will order Mu Sheng to be the deputy, and you two will train this new army for me. I'm giving you a year. ”

Xu Huizu was stunned, "A year? ”

Zhu Yunwen nodded, "As long as the army enters the Luchuan territory, it will be regarded as a conquest, and my ears will be able to calm down, and when the new army is trained, it will not be too late to fight, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, and wait for 20,000 elites to be trained, although I dare not say that Annan is leveled, a sword is Ganmeng, and I don't think it should be a big problem." ”

The equipment of the Ming Dynasty was the most sophisticated in the world during this period, with fine armor, steel knives, and muskets. This kind of disparity in equipment is like the US military fighting Iraq, and if it can't win, it can really die.

Xu Huizu clenched his fists, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the ministers will live up to their grace, and on holidays, take the sword Gan Meng, Hu Ji Li, and offer the head of our emperor." ”

"Go ahead, hurry up and prepare the training booklet, and I will send the Ministry of Engineering to print it, and at that time, the new army must have at least ten copies for each battalion."

"Obey the holy decree, and the minister will retire."

Xu Huizu came down at this time, saluted with his head held high, and slowly withdrew from the main hall.

"This is my first battle as an emperor, Lao Zhu, you have a spirit in the sky, bless your Daming."

Zhu Yunwen sighed in his heart, the matter in the southwest finally set the tone, and the pressure on his body during this time suddenly dropped, hit him!

As for the future, whether he can win or not, Zhu Yunwen has already seen it, since he has decided to fight, he will learn while fighting, even if he doesn't fight well this time, then he will continue to fight in the future.

Towering Ming, the national strength is in full swing, can you still crush two little bed bugs?
