Chapter 067: Decisive Battle in Sand City
Although the Ma family originated early, it is really a top general, but it has to start with Ma Lu, Ma Jin, Ma Fu, and Ma Gui brothers after Ma Lu are the backbone of it, and the third generation is not bad, Cheng En, Cheng Zhao, Cheng Xun, Cheng Xun, Cheng Xuan, Cheng Zong, etc., the worst in history has also mixed with the generals, and there are several general soldiers.
Ma Chengxun is still very young this year, he is only a 27-year-old general, and his future is bright.
For this battle, the Ma family attaches great importance to it, from Ma Jin to Ma Gui, and then to him Ma Chengxun, they all regard this battle as an excellent opportunity for the Ma family.
Dong Li Xima, Li Chengliang is already Ning Yuanbo, and he killed Su Jianghai not long ago, so he can't get mixed with the world, but what about the Ma family? There is no one of the fart lords, the highest Ma Jin did not get the opportunity to fight this time, no matter how much the dispatch merit is done, the dispatch of this kind of thing, in the end, it must mainly fall on the head of the civilian officials, and the military generals will take credit, only on the battlefield.
Fortunately, Gao Shizhong adhered to the Gao family's consistent support for Shanxi Jiangmen, although Ma Jin as the general soldier could not go out to fight in Monan, but deliberately transferred Ma Gui to his side, as long as the battle of Monan was won, not to mention that Ma Gui had merit in defending Shacheng, even if there was no merit, it is estimated that Gao Shizhong could also find out a credit for him, and the promotion of a general soldier was basically ironclad.
Ma Chengxun's heart is hot, although he is the third in the clan, but since he was a child, he prefers cavalry, and worshiped Ma Fang as a teacher very early, and later because of the lack of cavalry generals in Shanxi after Ma Fang Zhishi, he was able to guard the key pass of the monolith fort under the recommendation of Ma Fang, and was promoted to a general, leading 3,600 cavalry There were almost 5,000, and later some of them were cut and strengthened to Liaodong, leaving less than 4,000.
I thought that according to this trend, the cavalry strength of Shanxi Xuanda might gradually decline, but unexpectedly, as soon as the high servant came, he was able to control almost all the remaining iron cavalry of Ma Fang as a mere general, and participated in the battle to strangle Tumen Khan!
It's an honor, it's exciting!
Ma Chengxun is a young man with a great reputation, and because he is the third line, he was naturally pressed by his eldest brother, and he wants to become the first person in the clan with his own efforts, so he attaches more importance to this battle.
In the original history, Ma Chengxun pit was in this fame heart, because the origin of the money to Zheng Luo to give him a birthday greeting was unknown, and he was impeached by the local governor according to the imperial history, and he fell into bad luck.
But in fact, there was a background reason for that incident, Zhang Siwei, the head of the Jin Party, cooperated with Emperor Wanli to calculate against Zhang Juzheng's party at that time, but it didn't take long for Zhang Siwei to go to work, Zhang Dang was still a hundred-legged insect at that time, but he didn't stiffen, and he slapped the Jin Party with his backhand.
But although Zhang Siwei went to work, he was protected by the emperor, and Zhang Dang had nothing to do with him. So Zhang Dang went to attack Zheng Luo, but Zheng Luo, a civil official and a feudal official, was not afraid of that little trick at all, and he was stunned that there was no, but it was Ma Chengxun, an unlucky general, who bumped into N and suffered from the pond fish.
In fact, few of the generals in that year were clean in terms of money, whether they were greedy for themselves or had to be greedy for the sake of the army, they would inevitably have a bad debt, even Qi Jiguang was like this, not to mention him Ma Chengxun?
In the final analysis, this problem is caused by the financial system and military system of the Ming Dynasty. But in the matter of the family, the system of the imperial court is extremely imperfect, forcing the military generals below to only cross the sea to show their magical powers, whoever can make money, who can afford to raise elite soldiers, who can fight well.
Qi Jiguang is because he can be a man and an official, and Li Chengliang wants to get money in the imperial court because of his clever means, and he almost changed the entire Liaodong from Zhu to Li, and he can get money, so they defend and attack one by one, and the two main forces are basically not short of money, and the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers in the department is also very hard.
But the Ma family is worse here, although Xuanda Shanxi is the descendant of the Gao Party and the nest of the Jin Party, but under the national policy of "West Huaidong System", they can make money a lot less, so that they have to find ways to make money to maintain the use and morale of the department.
Historically, whether it is Ma Jin, Ma Gui or later Ma Chengxun and others, almost all have been impeached, of course, part of the reason is because of the political dispute, but they have to make money is also a key to it.
There is no doubt that the Majiada soldiers can fight, but there is a "heavenly rule" in this era: being able to fight means swallowing gold.
Whether it is Qi Jiajun, Li Jiajun or Ma Jiajun, they can fight if they can, but who is not a gold-swallowing beast?
And it is easy for Qi and Li to make money, but it is difficult for the Ma family to make money, so what's so strange about accidents?
What's even more ridiculous is that in this situation, the emperor is not worried about the generals doing this kind of thing, anyway, if something happens, he will first dismiss the official and refrigerate, and then when there is a need for war, the emperor will use it in a grand manner, and let them make meritorious contributions.
It can not only let the generals under him know the majesty of the emperor, but also let them know the majesty of the emperor.
It was just perfect.
Ma Chengxun doesn't understand this truth very well, this young general who is less than thirty years old is now bent on winning a big battle, hoping to be able to touch the threshold of the general army before standing up, even if it is a deputy general soldier, although the deputy general soldier and the general seem to be only a little different, but the actual difference is not for many people, it is even a threshold that cannot be crossed in a lifetime.
Ma Chengxun's grandfather, Ma Lu, didn't he retire honorably in the position of general? His old man is lucky, God favors him, and his three sons can fight more than one another, so the Ma family has risen.
Now it's his turn Ma Chengxun, who knows if his son will be able to do it in the future? Therefore, he must work his own, and he must be the chief soldier in this life!
As for the present, you might as well set a small goal first, for example, I will earn it first, and I will be promoted to deputy chief first.
At that time, if Uncle Ma Gui is also promoted from deputy chief soldier to chief soldier, then the Ma family will be a brother and a double chief soldier, and he Ma Chengxun will be a deputy chief soldier, which sounds amazing.
In this kind of thinking, Ma Chengxun's department moved extremely quickly, even if the Tumen's movements were very fast, and even arrived at the scheduled battlefield at least six hours in advance, Ma Chengxun's department still arrived at Danan Mountain on time.
When he was anxiously waiting for the report from Ma Fang, the skills he learned from Ma Fang did not fall behind at all, and he arranged the preparations for the battle meticulously, and did not forget this and that because he was in a hurry to fight, he did not insult the reputation of "Ma Taishi".
Just as he was almost unblinking as he watched the hourglass calculate the time, the Tanmalay reported: "The Chahartu troops have entered the preset battlefield, and the Tumut tribe has already started a battle with it. ”
Ma Chengxun Huo Ran got up and shouted, "It's a good time!" ”
Then he looked around at the generals, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Gentlemen, my generation has made meritorious contributions and sealed his wife and son, just now!" ”
"Capture the figures alive!"
"Swear to take the dog's head!"
"Destroy Chahar and settle Mongolia in one battle!"
Ma Chengxun stood proudly and waved his big hand: "Okay!" Fight! ”
Tomorrow is Monday again, begging for a subscription and tickets.
