Chapter 134: Change
Pro~ The domain name of this site: the abbreviation homonym of "166", which is very easy to remember! Good-looking highly recommended: Zhu Youzhen was still very surprised, he didn't expect Liu Yuliang to be so responsible, which made him very satisfied, after all, he still hoped that Daming could have a Shoufu who dared to take responsibility.
"Aiqing's loyalty, I understand, pass on the decree, and give the first auxiliary python suit! Allow him to ride in a sedan car in the Forbidden City! ”
Zhu Youzhen said at this time.
Liu Yuliang was pleasantly surprised, and secretly thought that Lu Yuan was really right, His Majesty really likes to listen to big words, and when he said some impassioned words, His Majesty really gave himself enough courtesy.
You must know that the emperor has not given a python uniform to a cabinet minister for a long time.
Except for Yang Sichang.
It can also be seen from this that the emperor is not very satisfied with the cabinet ministers, especially himself, the head of the cabinet.
Now he suddenly wants to give himself a python suit, and he is allowed to ride in a sedan chair in the Forbidden City, which is undoubtedly officially acknowledging his status as the first assistant of the cabinet and officially beginning to value himself.
Although, Liu Yuliang knew that Chongzhen was treating him so politely now because he was going to suffer for the emperor in the future.
But the glory at the moment still flattered him a little.
"Lu Yuan is right, he has to suffer for the emperor anyway, it is better to take the scenery now and do his best!"
After Liu Yuliang thought so in his heart, he hurriedly thanked him.
Next.
Under Lu Yuan's suggestion, Liu Yuliang did enough to be a supervisor, began to inspect the soldiers and horses of King Qin, and personally lectured and delivered a speech.
"Inspector, the last general has made the staff have made a deduction for the next war to pursue Jiannu, the specific strategy should be to take the Xuanda soldiers led by Lu Duchen as the vanguard and main force, and from the perspective of the first three customs entry of Jiannu, the main purpose of Jiannu's entry into the customs is to rob the population and money and food of my Ming Dynasty, destroy the source of taxes and soldiers of my Ming Dynasty, and at the same time eliminate the elite soldiers of my Ming Dynasty who are still worthy of a war, so this time Jiannu will definitely do this, and naturally will not let go of Lu Duchen's Xuan soldiers, so from the perspective of the last general, once Lu Duchen's department is the vanguard, will definitely attract the main force of Jiannu to fight with it, we can take advantage of the fierce battle between Lu Duchen and Jiannu, and immediately send reinforcements to help Lu Duchen, and the reinforcements are naturally the last general and other officers and soldiers who dare to fight!
As long as it can be ensured that Lu Duchen is not completely wiped out and the main force of the slaves is recreated, even if the combat mission of repelling Jiannu and recovering the lost territory is half completed, after Jiannu suffered heavy losses and robbed a lot of money, the morale will definitely drop compared to when entering the customs, and the marching ability will also decline due to the increase in baggage, and they will also be more eager to get out of the customs. ”
As he spoke, Lu Yuan said to Yue Changgui: "Yue Changgui, on behalf of the General Staff, you can report in detail to the Inspector on the battle plan and arrangements. ”
Although Liu Yuliang is a civilian official and does not understand military affairs, after hearing Lu Yuan's words, coupled with a detailed explanation from Yue Changgui and other staff departments, he also roughly had a plan in his heart, and even began to have some expectations for defeating Jiannu.
"Just do this, Lu Yuan, the old man listens to your arrangement!"
Liu Yuliang said a word, but still asked with some curiosity: "What exactly does this staff department of yours do, it seems to be very useful now, similar to the staff." ”
"The Inspector is wise, and the General Staff Department is this role, similar to several military divisions organized together, also known as a think tank, specifically for the main general to make some strategic deductions and war plans based on some important intelligence and comparison between the enemy and us, so as to avoid the judgment of the main general, and it can be regarded as a collective effort."
Lu Yuan replied with a smile.
"This staff department is good, the old man also has to form one by himself, if this time he can really repel the Jiannu and make a small contribution, the old man will also suggest that the imperial court set up such a staff department! The old man doesn't know how to fight, so just find a few more people who know the art of war to come up with a safe method, and then the old man suggests that you come to manage this staff department for the imperial court. ”
Liu Yuliang said excitedly.
"The last general has thanked the Overseer first!"
Lu Yuan would be very willing to see that Daming could have a general staff department for planning and strategy, after all, this is better than letting a bunch of civilian officials make up some strategies now, even if it is better to ask someone who specializes in military affairs to serve as a staff officer and let a civilian official manage the staff than to only let the civilian group manage the empire now.
Of course, Lu Yuan also knows that this thing seems easy to do, but in fact it is difficult, maybe Liu Yuliang, who doesn't care about power, doesn't mind, but the entire civilian group will definitely not agree to let the power of strategic planning be vested in the General Staff.
Unless, the staff officers of this staff are all civilians.
Therefore, Lu Yuan did not discuss with Liu Yuliang for long on this, and only continued to calculate for Liu Yuliang the terrain of the location where he might fight with Jiannu in the future based on the information he obtained through the intelligence department at the liaison stations of various places.
And Liu Yuliang gradually began to have a preliminary understanding of the entire war situation from a cabinet chief assistant civil official who didn't know anything, and even after being summoned into the palace by Zhu Youzhen to discuss matters, he began to talk about it.
But just when Liu Yuliang and Lu Yuan were wholeheartedly preparing to go south to pursue Jiannu, the Xuanda Governor Chen Xinjia's report to Beijing was transmitted to Liu Yuliang and Lu Xiangsheng and other officials through the Di Bao.
"Governor Lu sent a note to His Majesty, saying that since Chen Xinjia reported that a large number of Jiannu had attacked and disturbed Xuanda Border Town, please allow the general soldier Wang Pu to lead his troops back to help Xuanfu and Datong."
Liu Yuliang said to Lu Yuan, if it was changed to before, Liu Yuliang would give full authority to Lu Xiangsheng to command the general army, and let Lu Xiangsheng arrange it, anyway, he himself does not understand military affairs, and Lu Xiangsheng has just obtained the merit of exterminating most of the thieves, and his prestige is like the sky, even the emperor has to consider his opinion, and he naturally can't put his beak in his beak.
But this time it was different, Liu Yuliang had his own strategic concept because of Lu Yuan's support and Lu Yuan's influence, so he naturally began to mind Lu Xiangsheng's behavior of directly asking the emperor for orders and transferring the commander-in-chief military attache on his behalf.
"Dare to ask Master Inspector, why did Governor Lu do this?"
Lu Yuan asked.
"Chen Xinjia, the governor of Xuanda, came to report that there were a large number of Jiannu near Xuanda, intending to knock on the pass, and Lu Xiangsheng must be worried that Xuanda would lose."
Liu Yuliang replied.
"The decision cannot be easily changed, now Lu Xiangsheng's department is only 20,000 people, and Guan Ning's soldiers have no intention of fighting, if Wang Pu is transferred, Lu Duchen's department will be reduced by nearly half of the soldiers and horses, once this is the case, in the future, Lu Duchen and Jiannu will fight, even if the last general desperately saves it, it will be difficult to repel Jiannu, Lu Duchen will definitely be wiped out, and even let the last general increase casualties, and all your calculations will be in vain!"
Lu Yuan didn't expect that there would be such a change when the army was about to set off, but he didn't want to see Lu Xiangsheng bring fewer soldiers and horses with him at the moment, because in this case, it would lead to a decrease in the number of allies who would fight with Jiannu together, even if Lu Yuan wanted to open up a second battlefield when Lu Xiangsheng and Jiannu were about to fight a decisive battle, it would not be able to change the situation of Jiannu's victory.
Therefore, Lu Yuan rejected Lu Xiangsheng's decision in his heart. 166 Reading Network
