Chapter 647: Yu Long Qi Hu of the Ming Dynasty

Xu Hai's luck was not good, because the momentum of the Japanese robbers led by him was too great, so the imperial court transferred two generals for Hu Zongxian, namely Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang, who were known as "Yu Long and Qi Hu".

Yu Dayou was born in martial arts, fought in the south and north for the Ming Dynasty, and made outstanding achievements, and wrote military and martial arts works such as "The Art of War", "The Book of Swords", "Recent Matters of Washing the Sea", "Continuing the General Essentials of the Martial Arts", etc., which can be called an all-round talent in civil and military affairs.

There is no perfect person in the world, and the same is true of Yu Dayou, this person has a righteous personality and is not good at flattering officials, so he has been repeatedly punished and degraded by the imperial court.

The Japanese invaded eastern Zhejiang, and Zhu Houxi of the Ming Dynasty issued an edict to transfer Yu Dayou as a general of Ningbo and Taizhou. At that time, the Japanese invaders broke through the Ningbo Changguo Guard, and Yu Dayou led his troops to repel the enemy, but was stopped by the imperial court as a wreck. Later, Yu Dayou defeated the Japanese at sea and burned more than 50 Japanese boats before resuming the distribution of the Yulu.

The Japanese invaders occupied Putuo, Ningbo, Yu Dayou led the army to the crusade, the soldiers attacked to the middle of the mountain, the Japanese invaders suddenly opened the city gate and killed, Yu Dayou's army was caught off guard, and three hundred people including Wuju people Huobin were killed, Yu Dayou was convicted, but the imperial court still let Yu Dayou continue to attack the Japanese invaders. Soon after, Yu Dayou defeated the Japanese at Wusong, was exempted from sin, and was given silver coins.

Then Yu Dayou defeated the Japanese who attacked and plundered the Jianjiao, and Yu Dayou led less than 300 troops, the mobilized soldiers and horses have not yet arrived, but the Japanese have 20,000 troops, Yu Dayou is outnumbered, defeated by the Japanese in Jinshan, the governor Zhang Jing let Yu Dayou fight, but Yu Dayou insisted on holding the army, and waited until Yongshun, Baojing's reinforcements arrived, Yu Dayou went to war, and defeated the Japanese in Wang Jiangjing, but the credit was attributed to Zhao Wenhua and Hu Zongxian, and Yu Dayou was demoted because of the defeat of Jinshan.

The Japanese robbers of Sanbansha robbed the fishing boats of the local residents and tried to escape, but Yu Dayou led his army to pursue them, defeated the Japanese at Maji Mountain, and captured the leader of the Japanese invaders. After a fierce battle, the nine ships of the Japanese were gathered in the Chuansha Valley, and more than 40 other lost Japanese ships were entangled, and the strength of the army has not stopped. Governor Cao Bangfu impeached Yu Dayou for indulging his enemies, and Emperor Jiajing was enraged, depriving him of his hereditary privileges, saying that he should be guilty of capital crimes, and making Yu Dayou make meritorious service to atone for his crimes.

After Wang Zhi's death, when Li Nan and Wang Ao attacked the island country, a large number of pirates and pirates fled to Fujian and Guangzhou. Yu Dayou successively killed four or five thousand Japanese pirates, almost quelling the Japanese troubles, but because the official army could not break through the Japanese pirates for a year, Hu Zongxian felt that it was more advantageous to let the Japanese escape, so he secretly let the enemy flee and did not supervise the pursuit of the troops. When Li Hu impeached Hu Zongxian on this matter, Hu Zongxian put the blame on Yu Dayou, and the emperor was furious and ordered Yu Dayou to be arrested, once again depriving him of the privilege of hereditary patronage.

In the end, it was Yu Dayou's friend Lu Bing who bribed Yan Shifan with his own money, and Yu Dayou was released from prison.

I have to say that Yu Dayou is really loyal to Daming, if he were to bear so much unfair treatment in another person, I am afraid that he would have lost his heart a long time ago, but he did not care about his previous suspicions.

When Xu Hai led tens of thousands of Japanese invaders to invade several places in the south of the Yangtze River again, several state capitals were breached by the Japanese invaders, killing and injuring countless people, and the imperial court had no choice but to use Yu Dayou as the chief military officer of Fujian and ordered him to lead his troops to pursue and suppress the Japanese invaders.

Compared with Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang, whose military talent is no less than his, is obviously better at being a person.

The Ming Dynasty was similar to the Song Dynasty, in that it was the civilian officials who held power, while the military generals had a relatively low status. A military general, no matter how capable you are, no matter how outstanding your martial arts are, and no matter how much you want to serve the country, you often have to submit to the governor and governor served by civilian officials. Without the support and reuse of civilian officials, it is very difficult for military generals to kill the enemy, make meritorious contributions, and become famous.

Qi Jiguang, who has outstanding military talents, also needs a hard civilian backstage, and the most prominent figure in the civilian group is Zhang Juzheng.

Zhang Juzheng lived in the Jiajing, Longqing, and Wanli dynasties, and his career flew Huang Tengda, and Longqing was the deputy assistant of the cabinet at that time, and he was a scholar of the Ministry of Officials and the University of Jianjidian. In the early years of Wanli, Zhang Juzheng served as the first assistant, and all major military and political affairs were ruled by him.

In terms of military merits, Qi Jiguang is not as good as Yu Dayou, but Qi Jiguang's promotion is far more than Yu Dayou.

When the Ming Dynasty reached the Jiajing period, the officialdom was filled with the atmosphere of corruption, and the court, whether civil officials or military generals, gave gifts and bribes everywhere for their own promotion.

According to Shen Defu's "Wanli Ye Ed.", Qi Jiguang often gave Zhang Juzheng a "navel" and let him make soup to drink. The navel, commonly known as the "fur seal", was born in the Bohai Sea area, which is very rare and has a good aphrodisiac effect.

According to the private notes of the Ming man Wang Shizhen, Qi Jiguang "always buys a thousand gold concubines" and gave it to Zhang Juzheng. After Zhang Juzheng drank this soup, he was extremely hot and impotent, and he couldn't wear a hat even if he counted nine cold days.

Anyway, now that the Japanese are rampant all over the country, the unlucky Yu Dayou and the smooth Qi Jiguang began to cooperate to conquer Xu Hai and others.

Li Nan didn't want to get involved in the affairs on land, it was estimated that if he went ashore, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang would not treat him well, so he decided to help them do something at sea.

Why can the Japanese invade the coastal area of the Ming Dynasty repeatedly?

Even if the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are bad, and the matter of empty salaries is more serious, it is not difficult to deal with the Japanese invaders with all their might, but the difficulty is that the Japanese are all in the nature of rogue crimes, and if they miss a blow, they will immediately escape by boat.

Since Li Nan's return from the island nation, the situation has changed rapidly.

After the four battles of Taizhou, Fujian, Xinghua and Xianyou, Xu Hai and other large and small Japanese invaders were repeatedly defeated by the Yu and Qi armies, and when the remnants fled to the beach in panic and prepared to leave, they found that all the ships that had been left on the shore had disappeared.

Dozens of warships flying the banner of Shuanglong slowly sailed to the shore, Li Nan stood on the bow of the ship with his hands in his hands, looking at Xu Hai with a worried face and the leaders of the island countries and sneering.

Li Nan's fame is not small now, Xu Hai and others naturally recognize his Shuanglong banner, so he hurriedly stood on the shore and said loudly: "Ship Master Li, although you and I have no relationship in the past, we are all peers, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Shut up!" Li Nan scolded coldly: "I am walking straight, but I dare not compare with people like you who collude with the Japanese and slaughter compatriots!" ”

Now Xu Hai and the others have pursuers behind them, and there is no way to escape, so even if he hates Li Nan again, he can't be tough.

Hearing Li Nan accuse himself, Xu Hai did not refute, but discussed in a harmonious voice: "Ship Master Li, everyone came out to do things at the risk of killing their heads, maybe we have different concepts, but as the saying goes, money can be spiritual." I, Xu Hai, have also accumulated a lot of treasures over the years, buried in the secret place in the sea, as long as you raise your noble hand and borrow me and other ships, then I will tell you the place where the treasure is hidden. ”

"Money does do a lot of things, and I love money."

Li Nan looked at the many Japanese Kou and Xu Hai who were still dripping blood on the many blades on the shore, and looked up to the sky and sighed: "It's a pity that these silver coins of yours are full of innocent people's souls, I don't dare to ask for them." ”

Seeing the dust not far behind him, Xu Hai knew that Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang's pursuers were about to arrive, so he begged bitterly: "Ship Master Li, as long as you can borrow some boats, I will promise you whatever you want!" ”

Li Nan also saw the movement in the distance, and immediately smiled and said, "It's impossible to borrow a boat, but I can give you something for free." ”

Xu Hai was stunned and asked, "Huh? What is it? ”

"This is it!" Li Nan shouted violently, and his right hand clenched into a fist and swung it down.

"Boom! Rumble! Boom~~~~" After seeing this attack signal, more than 30 warships in the sea that were ready to fire opened fire in unison, and tongues of fire gushed out.
