Chapter 409: Ambition Unpaid
Shangguan Qing ignored Man Gui's ridicule, and looked at Zhou Zheng covered in blood, and his pretty face was worried.
Although the days in the barracks are not short, Zhou Zheng's foundation is still a little worse, and he can't feel it during the war, but now he is relaxed, his whole body hurts, his shoulders can't be lifted, and his face is pale.
"It's fine." Zhou Zheng and Shangguan Qing smiled, then looked at Man Gui, Zhao Shujiao and others, and said, "Arrange the soldiers first." ”
Man Gui and Zhao Shujiao both smiled and nodded, this time they won a big victory over Jianyu, and they let out a vicious breath, although they also suffered heavy losses.
Wu Xiang's expression was a little stiff, his in-law ancestor Dashou was treasonous, his identity was very embarrassing, and he didn't know what to do with it later.
A group of people quickly settled down and gathered at the official residence of Youtun.
Zhou Zheng's upper body is covered with bandages, and Shangguan Qing is almost used to medicating Zhou Zheng, wrapping bandages, and wiping bloodstains.
Man Gui, Zhao Shujiao, Wu Xiang, Song Wei and others all came, sitting opposite Zhou, drinking spirits to keep out the cold.
Man Gui had a comfortable expression on his face, wiped his beard, and looked at Zhou Zhengdao: "Brother, I was crazy when I saw you under the capital before, but I didn't expect you to be even crazier this time, I can't even imagine that those people in Jianyu hate you to death!" ”
Zhao Shujiao had a lot of Sven, and then said with a smile: "This time, we not only defeated Jianyu, but also gained a foothold in Youtun, at least we also fought out 30,000 or 40,000 Jianjiao, which is enough for them to feel distressed for several years......"
Wu Xiang and Song Wei both had reserved smiles on their faces and did not interject. One is embarrassment, and the other is not enough identity.
Zhou Zheng got dressed and felt much more comfortable, but he still said with some pity: "Let Huang Taiji go." ”
Hearing this, Man Gui's face was suddenly full of anger, and he said in a deep voice: "This matter must not be settled!" When I enter Beijing this time, I must participate in Qiu Hejia in front of the emperor, such a bad military event, he will not be redeemed! ”
Zhao Shujiao was also angry, and said: "Such a good opportunity is missed in vain, the emperor, the court will definitely not give up, Qiu Hejia, it is difficult to escape death!" ”
Zhou Zheng listened to the words of the two, but he didn't think so in his heart. Qiu Hejia is not Man Gui, Zhao Shujiao is such a martial artist, straight to the point, Qiu Hejia is an old bureaucrat, but when he decided not to cooperate with Sun Chengzong to send troops, he must have thought of a way out, he can't say, the impeachment of Sun Chengzong is already on the way to the capital.
After saying this, Zhao Shujiao began to talk about this war again.
Man Gui looked surprised, looked at Zhou Zheng with a sigh, and said: "From the beginning, I felt that there was a problem with our tactics, but I couldn't figure out where it was, until the start of the war, the overseer gave us the answer, I said brother, when did you have such a tacit understanding with the superintendent?" ”
The joke that Man Gui said actually pointed out that the strategy and tactics of this war were the 'conspiracy' of Zhou Zheng and Sun Chengzong.
Zhao Shujiao took a sip of wine and said excitedly: "I have to say that although this arrangement is thrilling, it is indeed the best." After this battle, there will be no war in Liaodong for at least five years, if the superintendent continues to plan and continue to advance northward, Pingliao is a matter of time! ”
Now Jianyu's vitality is greatly damaged, and without external supplements, he will continue to weaken; And the Ming Dynasty will be able to continue to strengthen, eliminate one and the other, and completely eliminate Jianyu, as if it is already in front of you!
Zhou Zhengke does not have the optimism of Man Gui and Zhao Shujiao, and the trouble of the Ming Dynasty is not on the outside but on the inside. In history, every great victory of Jianyu was based on the death of the Ming Dynasty inside and outside the court, and whether it was Li Zicheng and other robbers, or Jianyu stealing artifacts, it was the Ming Dynasty himself who died.
Although it hit Jianyu hard and bought time for the Ming Dynasty, this did not change the Ming Dynasty's court, and they will continue to do it, even intensify it, until the Ming Dynasty dies!
Zhou Zheng also took a sip of wine, jumped away from the topic, and said, "Let's clean up, and then go to Jinzhou to see the superintendent and summarize the war." ”
Man Gui immediately continued: "No need, the superintendent said before, if he wins, he will come to Youtun in person." ”
Zhou Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then nodded slightly, the current Youtun is no longer dangerous, and Sun Chengzong is fine.
Zhou Zheng, Man Gui, Zhao Shujiao and others are reviewing this war, and they are also imagining this reward and the future prosperity of Pingliao!
Cao Bianjiao in Youtun, He Kegang and others were doing a post-war inventory.
The Ming army's style of attack this time was to fight hard, consuming the living force of the Jianyu at any cost, and its own losses were even greater.
In the evening of the next day, Sun Chengzong came to Youtun under the escort of Ouyang Sheng and others.
This battle not only thwarted Jianlu, but also allowed the Ming Dynasty to gain a foothold north of the Daling River, which was a great strategic victory, reversing the offensive and defensive relationship with Jianlu, and even related to the fortunes of the country.
Sun Chengzong was naturally very happy, and chatted with Zhao Shujiao, Man Gui and others for more than an hour, until everyone saw that he was tired, and he was ready to retire.
"Zhengyun stays, and the others go." Sun Chengzong said with a smile as he looked at a group of people.
Man Gui, Zhao Shujiao and others knew that this battle was a joint plan between Sun Chengzong and Zhou Zheng, and knew that the two had something to say, so they retreated one after another.
Sun Chengzong leaned on the chair, the old man who hadn't slept for a few days and nights was still in good spirits, looked at Zhou Zheng with his eyes, and said with a smile: "Yuan Chonghuan also mentioned you to me before he was imprisoned. ”
Zhou Zheng was stunned, but he didn't expect Yuan Chonghuan to mention him before he died.
Yuan Chonghuan is now a troublesome figure in the Ming Dynasty. During the Apocalypse, he was a great hero who defended the Ningjin defense line twice, and he looked forward to it from afar, and his reputation was grand, and he was unparalleled for a while. In the second year of Chongzhen, Chongzhen placed high hopes on him, and his prestige reached the extreme. But it didn't take long for him to be imprisoned for Jian's capture, and the hero became a street rat that everyone shouted and beaten, and he was sentenced to death.
At first, there were still people arguing for Yuan Chonghuan, but now, whoever dares to mention Yuan Chonghuan is a big crime! Emperor Chongzhen of the Qianqing Palace, it is called a ruthless!
Sun Chengzong looked at Zhou Zheng with bandages on his body, and there was a strange look on his tired face, and said, "What do you think of Yuan Chonghuan?" ”
Zhou Zheng looked at Sun Chengzong, didn't know the meaning of his words, thought about it, and said, "The ambition is unpaid." ”
Sun Chengzong listened to these four words, his expression moved, and he was speechless for a while.
At first glance, 'unpaid ambitions' seems quite tragic, bleak, and embarrassing. A careful taste, but it seems to be a rhetoric and a mockery. If you think about it, it doesn't seem to be interesting.
Sun Chengzong was silent for a while, and suddenly asked again: "Who do you think is the most suitable person to replace Jiliao Supervisor?" Don't be sloppy. ”
Zhou Zheng smiled cooperatively, and then groaned.
In this battle, it stands to reason that Sun Chengzong has made great contributions, because whether it is strategic, tactical or results, Sun Chengzong has won a great victory and is the one who reversed the fortunes of the Ming Dynasty. But the imperial court will not look at it from above, and will only grasp some things in the process of the war, nitpicking, and infinitely magnifying.
It is conceivable that this time, Sun Chengzong will be able to get out of the country with his whole body, even if he is not good, he will even be imprisoned.
