Chapter Forty-Eight: Mu Xia's Offer
After Mu Tianbo finished speaking, seeing that I didn't reply to him for a long time when I looked at the map, he asked in a low voice and said, "Your Majesty, don't you want to send troops to relieve my siege of Yunnan?" ”
Nima, why am I unwilling to rescue Yunnan!
Although Yunnan is not completely controlled by me now, how can I, as the king of a country, not know its strategic importance.
I sighed and said, "Tianbo, your Yunnan Mu Wangfu is loyal to the imperial court, how can I leave Yunnan alone?" But my current situation is that it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice! ”
After hearing my words, Mu Tianbo asked a little unpleasantly: "What did the emperor say this?" ”
I pointed to the military map and said: "Now all the areas north of the Yangtze River are under the control of Li Zicheng, and Hangzhou, Nanjing, and Suzhou, these important towns south of the Yangtze River, are still occupied by Wu Sangui. Although Wu Sangui is now going north to help Li Zicheng resist the Manchus, if I take away the troops and horses of the five southern provinces along the Yangtze River, once the Manchus do not attack Shanhaiguan, Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng can go south at any time. In this way, there is no barrier in the south, and the two of them can easily cross the Yangtze River, and the consequences will be unimaginable! ”
I'm telling the truth, the current situation in Daming is so difficult.
When I moved the capital to Fuzhou before, I never thought that Zhang Xianzhong would develop so fast, take Sichuan, Chongqing and other places in just half a year, and then attack Yunnan.
Seeing me say this, Mu Tianbo sighed in frustration and said, "Is the sky going to kill me in Yunnan?" ”
Listening to his helpless sigh, buddy, I blamed myself in my heart.
Although he didn't blame me on his lips, he definitely had an opinion about me in his heart.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened, and then a rude voice said arrogantly: "Big brother, you don't come to me when you come to Fuzhou, what do you mean?" ”
As he spoke, Mu Xia rushed in and hugged Mu Tianbo.
Mu Tianbo said angrily: "Can you be a little polite?" I'm talking to the emperor about things, you hurry up and get me out!" ”
"Yo yo yo, you still dare to murder me, do you know that the lord of this county is now a big celebrity around the emperor, and the emperor has to call me Master when he sees me, what's so great about you as a little prince of Qianguo!"
Nima! Originally, I was still anxious, but when I heard Mu Xia, the little girl, say this, I immediately wanted to laugh.
But after Mu Tianbo heard this, he became even more angry, scolded Mu Xia, and said: "How can I have such a rude and rude loser in my Yunnan Mu Wangfu, dare to pretend to be the emperor's master." Get the hell out of here! ”
Seeing this, I hurriedly explained to Mu Tianbo, Mu Tianbo suddenly lost his temper after hearing this, and Mu Xia kept counting him.
After counting Mu Tianbo, Mu Xia grabbed the map on the desk and asked, "Big brother, how is the situation in Yunnan now?" Have you already beaten away the earth overlord Zhang Xianzhong? ”
"If I defeat Zhang Xianzhong, I won't come to Fuzhou to find the emperor. Now Kunming is in danger......"
Mu Tianbo couldn't continue, because besides, the responsibility came to my head again, and he was saving face for me.
After hearing this, Mu Xia's unruly county lord asked me about the situation in Yunnan, and I was helpless to tell the difficulties of the imperial court.
After I finished speaking, the girl picked up the military map and looked at it, and then pointed at it in a similar way, looking very understanding.
Mu Tianbo saw that she hadn't left for a long time, so he snatched the map over, and then said, "You go out quickly, I still have something to say to the emperor!" ”
"Do you have something to say to the emperor's brother? What else can you say? Let the emperor's brother transfer all the soldiers and horses from the five provinces south of the Yangtze River to Yunnan? How can it be! ”
"You ......" Mu Tianbo was directly speechless.
"Little county lord, get out quickly!" I'm getting a little impatient.
"Brother Emperor, didn't you criticize you for the teacher, you read the military book every day, but you didn't even know 'Wei Wei to save Zhao', are you worthy of the teacher's teaching?"
I grass! Hearing this, my buddy was half angry and ready to scold her.
As a result, just as I was about to speak, it dawned on me that she had a very reasonable point.
Without waiting for me to ask, Mu Xia took the lead in asking, "Big brother, how many people are in Zhang Xianzhong's army?" ”
"It is said that there are 230,000. Why do you ask this? ”
"Two hundred and thirty thousand?" Mu Xia muttered to himself, pointed to the map and said: "Now Sun Kewang has brought 40,000 people on the Jinsha River, and Li Dingguo has 150,000 people in the Zhaotong Military and Civilian Mansion, which means that Zhang Xianzhong only has 40,000 people left in Chengdu." There are only 40,000 people in Chengdu, and the imperial court can transfer 50,000 people, if these 50,000 people bypass Li Dingguo's troops and go north from Guizhou to Sichuan to besiege Chengdu, then Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang, the two bastards, will definitely collect their troops and return to Chengdu, so that the siege of Kunming will not be solved? ”
After Mu Xia said this, Mu Tianbo, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, was instantly speechless, and could only stare at his rude sister.
Not only Mu Tianbo was stupid, but even buddy I didn't think of this strategy of "encircling Wei to save Zhao", if it wasn't for Mu Xia, a little girl, who suddenly broke in, I really don't know what to do.
After a long time, Mu Tianbo said with a happy smile: "Xia Xia, you are too smart, this strategy can be used!" ”
"Hmph, the lord of this county can be the emperor's master, can he do it without two spoons?"
As she spoke, her hands were put on the shoulders of Mu Tianbo and me, and then she said: "You two big men, one is the Great Tomorrow and the other is the Duke of Qianguo, you don't even have this knowledge, bah blah!" ”
Forehead......
Mu Tianbo and I looked embarrassed, in front of this unruly little county lord, it was really embarrassing.
And at this moment, Shuang'er walked in with two bowls of ginseng soup, and when she saw Mu Xia hugging my shoulders, there was a sense of vinegar on her face in an instant, but Mu Xia didn't notice it at all, and continued to hug me.
Seeing this, I hurriedly put her hand down, and was about to explain to Frost.
As a result, Shuang'er put down the ginseng soup and turned around and walked out, without even looking at me.
I don't care if anyone gets angry when I cross over, but I can't ignore Shuang'er, after all, she is the most desperate person for me.
But Mu Tianbo and Mu Xia were here, and it was impossible for me to run out to find Shuang'er immediately, so in the end, I could only drink ginseng soup aggrievedly and continue to discuss with Mu Tianbo how to "encircle Wei and save Zhao".
I looked at the map and felt that there was no major problem with the strategy Mu Xia just talked about.
And I remember that the historical records record that after Zhang Xianzhong took Sichuan, he set himself up as the emperor, named the country Daxi, became the emperor of the soil in Chengdu, lived an arrogant and lascivious life, and did not care about the government at all, relying on Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang's two righteous sons to help him fight the country.
Therefore, the strategy of "encircling Wei to save Zhao" can indeed solve the siege of Yunnan.
However, Fuzhou is more than 2,000 kilometers away from Chengdu, and once Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo know my intention to go north to Chengdu, they will inevitably intercept them in Guizhou first.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but fall into a state of sorrow again.
Mu Xia saw that I didn't speak for a long time, so she asked me what was going on.
I was ashamed to tell her my worries, she frowned at first, then clapped her hands, and said in surprise: "Brother Emperor don't worry! Aren't you afraid that Li Dingguo will intercept you in Guizhou, let me tell you, you can completely let the Yi native soldiers in Shuixi bite Li Dingguo in Zhaotong! ”
"That's right! The native soldiers of the Yi nationality in Shuixi can indeed be used. Your Majesty, this plan is feasible! Mu Tianbo said excitedly.
Forehead......
The two of them said that the head was the truth, but the buddies listened to it with a blank face, and they didn't know what the Shuixi Yi soldiers were.
So I asked shyly and said, "Where is this Shuixi Yi native soldier sacred, and why do they obey the call of the imperial court?" ”
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten?" Mu Tianbo looked at me with some surprise, and then said: "Emperor Taizu sent Fu Youde and ancestor Mu Ying to conquer Yungui in the south, and it was because of the help of the Yi people in Shuixi in Guizhou that he easily eradicated the Mengyuan forces remaining in Yungui. Later, Emperor Taizu also named Ai Cui, the leader of Shuixi, as the Xuanfu envoy of Guizhou, so that his family could live in Shuixi! ”
As soon as Mu Tianbo said this, Lao Tzu suddenly realized.
If I'm not mistaken, the Yi people they are talking about are actually the Yi ancestors who now live in the Bijie and Liupanshui areas of Guizhou.
And the history books do record that when Mu Ying went south to conquer Yungui, he received the help of the Yi people in Shuixi.
It is precisely because of such a historical event that the Ministry of Culture later filmed a TV series about the Yi people in Shuixi, called "Mrs. Luxiang", and invited "Phoenix Legend" to sing the theme song of the TV series.
And this lady of luxury fragrance was the wife of the Guizhou Xuanfu envoy Ai Cui at that time.
After Ai Cui's death, Xiang Xiang took charge of the government for her husband, governed Guizhou, and took care of Guizhou only in an orderly manner.
It is said that she was extremely loyal to the imperial court, and she had personally visited Zhu Yuanzhang in Nanjing, and Zhu Yuanzhang praised her even more.
Thinking of this, all the doubts in the buddy's heart were dispelled, and he excitedly took Mu Tianbo's hand and said: "Tianbo, Yunnan is saved, Yunnan is saved!" ”
Seeing this, Mu Xia said arrogantly: "Oops! Brother Emperor, it's obviously a plan I came up with, what are you doing holding my eldest brother's hand! ”
