Li Rusong, Chai Guozhu.

They are fierce generals, but so what?

Li Rusong and Chai Guozhu are not stupid, no one knows what kind of decision they will make at that delicate moment.

Xiao Ruxun looked at the map and pondered for a while.

"I cut off the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, Shen has always been bound to send the main force south to seek a decisive battle, at this moment, the defense of the capital is not so tight, is it? If I use a naval division to raid Tianjin Wei at this time, I can directly threaten the Beijing Division, and even if I can't take it, I can cut off the retreat of the old thief's troops going south! ”

Yuan Huang and Mei Guozhen were stunned for a moment, then looked at the map and found that it was indeed the case.

"The water master is so clever that I underestimate the water master!"

Yuan Huang sighed a little.

"So what if Shen has always been on guard? He saw that our sailor was attacking the land from the southeast, would he be prepared for our sailor to raid him from Tianjin Wei again? Wouldn't it be nice if he had been on guard? ”

Xiao Ruxun shook his head.

"How can there be a general in the world who can only win a battle by sneak attack."

Mei Guozhen blinked, and suddenly realized that Xiao Ruxun himself was the most capable general in the Ming Dynasty.

"What if Shen has always been on guard? How many troops and horses can he draw to deal with our land and sea attacks at the same time? He doesn't have a water division, except for the Guangdong water division who can still pose some threats to me, how can there be an established water division along the Ming coast that can be compared with my Zhennan water division? He can't stop me at sea, let alone on land! ”

Xiao Ruxun slammed his fist into Tianjin Wei's position and said viciously.

Mei Guozhen and Yuan Huang did not have any objections.

It's just that I feel that in this way, Shen has always been a little vulnerable.

Indeed, compared to Myanmar, the Ming Dynasty is very large and strong, but the Achilles heel of the Ming Dynasty also lies in this, the grassroots government of the Ming Dynasty is too weak to mobilize the huge manpower, material and financial resources of the Ming Dynasty into national strength.

The mobilization ability of the ancient Chinese government was the strongest in the early and middle periods of the Qin and Western Han dynasties, and the mobilization ability of Qin was a unique in ancient China, and it swept through the six countries of Shandong with the power of one country, which is enough to prove that Qin's war mobilization ability reached its peak.

The Western Han Dynasty mobilized the power of the whole country to fight against the Xiongnu Northern Expedition, and the high-intensity war for more than ten years led to the halving of the domestic household registration.

On the other hand, the Ming Dynasty has the special skills of breaking 100 million people and silver black holes, and has such a strong foundation, but it can't use the corresponding national strength to deal with a group of rogues and the Manchu Qing with a population of millions.

And this is precisely the dead end that Shen has always created for himself.

They set up the grass-roots political power of the Ming Dynasty in the local area, regarded the local area as their own independent small kingdom, and acted as the local tyrant and the local rich man, and resisted taxes with the Ming government in the fish and meat township, and resisted taxes with the Ming government for decades.

The only one that can mobilize the power of the whole country is the central government, and when the power of the central government is weakened, can the state mobilize?

Up to now, the local government has been controlled by the gentry, and they are the real local government, but can they mobilize for war? Can they do household registration and manpower organization? Can they protect the country and the people against foreign humiliation?

They just want people to work for them like animals and make a profit.

War mobilization requires the concerted efforts of all departments of the state and local governments, and it is at this level that the gentry class, who control the local land, property, and human resources, hollows out the Ming government, so the huge human, financial, and material resources are their private property and are destined to be unable to be turned into their combat power.

To fight is to make them bleed, will they agree?

The Manchu butcher's knives are all on their necks, and how many of them have put them into action?

Yan Yingyuan counted one.

So they played themselves to death.

This is the fundamental reason why Xiao Ruxun is not afraid of the gentry class, in terms of combat power, they are not Xiao Ruxun's opponents at all.

Although their manpower, material and financial resources are 100 times greater than Xiao Ruxun's, I don't know if there is even one percent of the resources that can be used to confront Xiao Ruxun, just like the ridiculous stupid things they did under the threat of Li Zicheng and the Manchu Qing in the future.

Xiao Ruxun's intensive arrangements and Deng Zilong's joint action with Liu Ling, and in the land of Liangguang, the Heishui sent by Xiao Ruxun also successfully connected with Chen Lan and Cen Dalu.

Chen Lan and Xiao Ruxun fought side by side, made great contributions in the water war, and continued to lead the Guangdong Navy Division after the war, but in fact, he commanded the Guangdong Navy Division as the national water division of the Ming Dynasty.

After the end of the war, the Ming government did not plan to rebuild the naval division at all, so it handed over the hundreds of warships stripped from Xiao Ruxun to Chen Luan, and let Chen Luan take command, because there was no war, so the naval division had no task, and it was gradually abandoned.

Chen Lan was also quite helpless.

Generals are useful only in times of war, and other times they are useless in the eyes of the civilian government.

Obviously, Chen Xuan is now idle, and there is no place for the sailors, if this situation continues, he General Chen will really be depressed and old age.

After a long time, not only him, but the entire sailor was bullied in Guangdong, and it was common for the sailor to be deducted from the salary, the sailor dared not speak out, and Chen Lan himself was also faceless.

At that time, Xiao Ruxun was very popular in Burma, and he was also a celebrity in front of the emperor, and Chen Luan had fought side by side when he was old, so he asked Xiao Ruxun for help, and Xiao Ruxun also promised to help him dredge up.

Dredging is naturally effective, the situation of the sailor has improved significantly, but there is no war, the sailor will continue to decline, and he can't see the future, Chen Lan even plans to find another position, and wants to find a secretary of the military department through Xiao Ruxun's relationship, and is about to write a letter!

And at this time, the situation suddenly changed, and news came from the capital that Xiao Ruxun rebelled and conspired to usurp the throne, but fortunately he was consistently stopped by the then cabinet deputy Shen Yi, and now Xiao Ruxun has been subdued, and the emperor abdicated in shame, gave the throne to his son, and became the emperor.

This news smashed on Chen Lan's head like a thunderbolt from the sky.

Like almost everyone, it took him a long time to realize that it had happened.

The emperor has changed, and Xiao Ruxun is dead.

It is clear that Chen's situation is about to change dramatically.

Chen Lan is not only good at water warfare, but also good at analyzing the current situation, he knows that after Shen Cheng is in power, he will inevitably start to clean up the remnants of Xiao Ruxun's forces, Burma Town is only the first step, and all the remaining generals who have risen in the three major battles will become the target of Shen Zheng's attack, and it is almost impossible for anyone to be spared.

Jiubian may be a little better, after all, it is an important town, and he is a naval commander and does not fight, so he must have been the first to be killed.

Chen Lan began to become panicked.

Until he was contacted by the secret envoy sent by Xiao Ruxun.
