Chapter 45: The Heart of the Man

The ships were taken and the soldiers were killed!

In the lobby of the Xuanfu Division of the Daimyo Mansion, Wang Song sat on a chair, his face was ugly, and he didn't say a word.

"Xianggong, this is something that Cai Wu asked his brothers to bring back. You must be in charge of your brothers! ”

Chen Jianghua, who was kneeling below, both had sad faces, and Li Bao handed over the oil bag.

Ma Kuo untied the oil bag and gave it to Wang Song.

Wang Song opened the oil packet, which was densely marked with the situation of the islands around the Ryukyu Islands, including Taiwan, which had reached the vicinity of Kyushu Island in Japan.

Wang Song closed the paper, nodded, and gestured. Ma Kuo asked Chen Jianghua and Chen Ping to go down to rest.

"Xianggong, don't raise troops out of anger!"

Afraid that Wang Song would be angry because the ship was seized, Ma Kuo hurriedly persuaded him. Only a little more than a month after the Shaanxi War, the loyal and righteous army lost more than 30,000 soldiers and soldiers. At this time, it is probably not wise to send a large army.

"The soldiers were killed, the goods were seized, such a provocation, if you don't fight back, you think that my loyal army can be bullied!"

Wang Song snorted coldly and frowned slightly.

The ships were taken and the soldiers were killed, but he did not burst into a rage. From the day of the confrontation between the Loyal Army and the Jin people, the confrontation between the Loyal Army and the Pseudo-Qi has been an inevitable occurrence.

The Great Song Dynasty held the south of the Yangtze River, the puppet Qi was stationed north of the Huai River, and the Loyal and Righteous Army fought for a place in the gap between the Lianshui Army's outlet to the sea. The loyal army and the puppet Qi meet on the sea, and it is inevitable that there will be a battle.

Now it seems that it is time to wave troops eastward, destroy the pseudo-Qi, and seize Shandong, so that we can wave troops overseas.

Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and even the distant world. Southeast Asia, the American continent, the Australian continent, and even Europe at this time.

China must have a greater living space.

"Xianggong, if you want to cut off the Jinren sea route to the south, tired and pseudo-Qi, the best way is to annihilate the pseudo-Qi sailor and occupy Jingdong East Road. Otherwise, there is a pseudo-Qi water master, and the Jin people can go south from the sea at any time. Once the transportation is blocked, our army's rear road will be blocked, and the enemy will be attacked on the back of the abdomen. It is better to send troops early, defeat the pseudo-Qi water division, and never suffer in the future. ”

Li Ruoxu stood up at this time, but with a completely different attitude, he pulled Wang Song back from meditation.

In terms of effect, the pseudo-Qi water division was defeated, Jingdong East Road was seized, and Laizhou, Dengzhou and other places were occupied, and it was difficult for the Jin people to go south. The navy and the infantry went hand in hand, and with supplies on land and reliance on the sea, they could firmly control the area around the sea.

"If you don't punish you, won't my loyal army be ridiculed by the world."

Zhang Heng said loudly: "Xianggong, south of the Yellow River, there are still more than 30,000 people in my loyal army, and without the need for more troops in the two rivers, you can also destroy the pseudo-Qi water division and occupy Haizhou, Dengzhou and other places." The villain is willing to lead his troops to the conquest, and the prince is sitting in Hebei. ”

Since the Loyal and Righteous Army sat in Lianghe, with the increase of generals in the army, he obviously had the opportunity to go on the expedition.

"Xianggong, generals can't raise troops out of anger, this is a taboo for soldiers. After the war, the soldiers need to rest, and the expedition is pseudo-Qi, and the labor division is mobilized, and the other party waits for work, which is not a good strategy. Be cautious. ”

Ma Kuo remained skeptical about sending troops. He remembers the tragic situation of the First World War in Shaanxi, and now that he thinks about it, he is also terrified.

If they go through one or two terrible battles, I am afraid that the loyal army will be greatly damaged. He didn't want the tragedy in Fuzhou to happen again, and he didn't want the Loyal Army to be in a worse situation.

"Li Bao, to fight the pseudo-Qi water division, we need our army's water division to dispatch, what do you think?"

Wang Song raised his head and looked at his naval general.

"Xianggong, there are 100 naval warships and tens of thousands of soldiers, and the soldiers are already eager to try to defeat the pseudo-Qi. As long as the prime minister gives an order, all the soldiers of our sailor division will have no hesitation and setback

Its edge struck the pseudo-Qi water division. ”

In front of Wang Song, Li Bao naturally would not show weakness. Moreover, he now has hundreds of warships and tens of thousands of sergeants under his command, and he has long been impatient and wants to fight with the pseudo-Qi sailors.

"Xianggong, most of our army's sailors are perennial people on the water and sea, and the foot soldiers are even more elite divisions, which are more than enough to deal with the pseudo-Qi sailors."

Zhang Heng glanced at Li Bao and nodded slightly, obviously appreciating Li Bao's attitude.

"Training alone can't make a tiger and wolf army. Li Bao led the sailors, attacked the warships of the puppet Qi in Yangzhou, and then went south to Quanzhou, occupied Liuqiu, and crusaded against pirates, which has been tempered a little. If you don't fight a few battles, how can you become a strong army? Xianggong, as long as your military order is issued, I am willing to make a military order, attack the pseudo-Qi water division, and take Haizhou and Dengzhou! ”

Ma Kuo shook his head slightly. The loyal and righteous army has sharp weapons and elite soldiers, and all these generals in the army want to make war achievements. Shaanxi won the war, and everyone in these guys is full of energy, scrambling to be the first, and no one wants to be pulled down.

"Xianggong, if you can occupy the land of Haizhou, not to mention the sea route that cuts off the Jin people to the south, but also controls the Huainan East Road, and the sea salt of the two Huai accounts for half, the pros and cons are self-evident. Please be considerate. ”

Li Ruoxu's words reached the hearts of everyone.

Attacking the pseudo-Qi water division, once to strike at the opponent's sea power, the Jin people went south with many difficulties, and the sea salt that could control the Huainan East Road was a huge supplement to the financial endowment. In addition, it can ensure the smooth flow of the canal, and grain and other goods from the south can be transported to the two rivers.

At the same time, the Loyal and Righteous Army also had a trading port to the sea, and the glass, porcelain and other items of the two rivers could be sold. The benefits are numerous.

Ma Kuo still wanted to speak, but Wang Song waved his hand slightly, it seemed that he had made up his mind.

"Since you're already going to fight, why not make a big one. Now that the imperial court has ceded the north of the Huai River, we don't need to be polite. ”

Wang Song looked at the generals and staff below, and his voice suddenly raised a few degrees.

"Mobilize 30,000 soldiers and horses from the Daimyofu, Tokyo City, Nanjing, and Xuzhou, and cooperate with the naval division to seize the Huaiyang Army, Haizhou, Mizhou, Laizhou, and Dengzhou. Zhang Heng commanded the whole army, transferred Niu Gao and Liang Xing to lead the armies, and advanced with Li Bao's naval division by sea and land, annihilating the opponent's naval division in one fell swoop and capturing the coastal states. ”

He looked at Zhang Heng and said, "Zhang Heng, if you can destroy the pseudo-Qi, you should take a credit."

Zhang Heng, Li Bao and others were overjoyed, but Li Ruoxu was a little nervous.

Wang Song looked at everyone in the hall and said solemnly:

"An army of 30,000 and more than 10,000 water divisions assembled in the Lianshui Army. Troops were dispatched in March. First captured Haizhou and Dengzhou, and then attacked the Jin people from the sea and used troops overseas. Zhang Heng, Li Bao, please leave this battle to the two of you!"

Zhang Heng and Li Bao are both beating wildly. Wang Song's ambition made everyone in the hall blush, and they were all worried.

Ma Kuo and Li Ruoxu glanced at each other, and then looked at Zhu Mengshuo, Huang Zong and others next to them, and everyone could see the uneasiness and restlessness in their hearts.

Winning the Central Plains, the army is in the world, Wang Song's goal is already a glimpse of the leopard from today's words.

Just like what was published in the newspapers, the Chinese civilization and nationalism, I am afraid that the dynasty that Wang Song would dream of establishing, is a huge empire watered by Chinese civilization. Otherwise, why would he open up territory and use troops overseas!

Whether it is Cheng Zhu Lixue or Lu Wang Xinxue; Whether it is "learning from things", or "people's hearts are only in danger, the Tao is only subtle, but the essence is the only one, and it is allowed to be persistent"; Whether it is "rule by propriety", "rule by virtue", or "rule by benevolence", Wang Song seems to have been pursuing a kind of moral purity for people, but the governance method adopted is "rule of law".

Internally, everything he and Xuanfu Si have done can be said to open up the wisdom of the people, prosper all industries, and let the people live a good life. On a spiritual level, he is always demanding

And what reminds is the martial spirit and dedication of the people.

When it comes to foreign wars, Wang Song is refined self-interest and pragmatism. In some ways, it can seem cold and unforgiving.

"Your Majesty...... Xianggong, according to ...... As the lower officials see, it is better to send a letter of surrender to Liu Yu in the name of the Xuanfu Division, so that the pseudo-Qi can surrender without a fight, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort. ”

Ma Kuo's stumbling made Wang Song can't help but glance at him. Ma Kuo, who is usually a quick talker, how did he become inarticulate today.

Don't you know that as the war progresses smoothly, many generals in the army are already ready to move, and the idea of "persuading them to advance" is already surging in the army.

A faint monarch like Zhao Ji can become the Son of Heaven, and Wang Song, a man like Wang Song who is a man of great martial arts and strategy, is it not unfair to be subservient to others?

"With just a letter, how can you let Liu Yu, a traitor, take the initiative to surrender!"

Where did Wang Song know everyone's thoughts, he shook his head and said loudly.

"Open the door and surrender to sincerity, this is not something that can be solved by letters, but typed. If the loyal and righteous army wants to make the puppet Qi surrender, they can only take the initiative to surrender if the puppet qi is hurt and defeated. Pseudo-Qi is like this, and so are the Jin people and Xia people. ”

"Phase...... The public speaks...... It's ......"

The red tide on Ma Kuo's face still hasn't receded. Up to now, everything Wang Song said, he was just submissive, and there was no disagreement.

Zhang Heng saw Ma Kuo's state and instantly came to his senses. He and Wang Song started from the end of the microscopic end, and naturally hoped that Wang Song would ascend to Dabao and become the master of the world.

"Xianggong, the world is in turmoil, Emperor Song has been spurned by the people of the world, and Jin Xia is eyeing him. It's better to command the world than to do this world......"

"Zhang Heng, Hugh is talking nonsense!"

Zhang Heng hadn't finished speaking, and was interrupted by Wang Song's cold words.

"Don't mention this again!"

Wang Song's face immediately changed, his eyes looked at Zhang Heng in front of him, and his expression was extremely serious.

"Zhang Heng, are you in the water in your brain! Surrounded by strong enemies, lead your troops to fight well, and never make such wild words in the future!"

Ma Kuo's eyes swept over the people in the room whose eyes were flashing, and when he saw Zhang Heng with a red face, he secretly said that Zhang Heng couldn't hold his breath.

"Brother Zhang, don't be impatient. Lead the troops to the battle first, and everything is based on the overall situation!"

Wang Song looked at Zhang Heng, who was red-faced, and said to Ma Kuo: "Ma Xuanzan, in the battle of Shandong, you are on the side of the painting, take a good look at this guy, lest he lose the battle." This time, we will destroy Liu Yu, lest he be hindered by the side and affect the great cause of restoring Yanyun!"

Wang Song brushed his sleeves away, and everyone came over to comfort Zhang Heng for a few words, and then left one after another.

"Brother Zhang, this is a matter of course, you are still too anxious."

Seeing that there was only Li Bao next to him, Ma Kuo said softly: "When we clean up Liu Yu in Shandong, destroy Western Xia, and restore Yanyun, the south will be in chaos for a few more years, and the people of the court will be mourned, won't it be obvious that the lord of the world is the lord of the world?" If you raise this matter now, the public will be pointed out by Wanfu, and it will also cause instability in the morale of the army and the situation in the two rivers is worrying. Do you understand? ”

Zhang Heng was dumbfounded, and it took a while to react.

"Ma Xuanzan, I didn't expect that because of this incident, the Wang Xiangguild would be furious. I'm just worried that the princess and the princess have stayed for a long time, but they are reluctant to kill the killer. ”

"It's clear every day, you don't have to fight and kill."

Ma Kuo shook his head and said in a low voice: "People are doing it, the sky is watching, and the people of the world know it in their hearts." The cycle of heaven and earth is a fixed number. What we have to do now is to destroy Liu Yu first. ”

Several people left the lobby, Li Bao followed behind Zhang Heng, in the winter, he was sweating all over, and his back was already soaked.

Could it be that with the change of dynasties, Wang Song really wants to be the lord of the world?
