Song Yingchang is Ye Mengxiong's friend, and he has always been a strong supporter of Xiao Ruxun, Xiao Ruxun has not lived up to his expectations, and has repeatedly surprised him, he feels that he needs to give this young general a little help. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Well, I'll leave this matter to the old man, the old man will give you a concert, tell the matter of Iwami Silver Mountain and the court, there should be a difference, there will be many people who support you to take Iwami Silver Mountain, and the household department will definitely support it, and the Ministry of War is about the same, and these departments of the Ministry of Industry will also support it considering their own problems, and three of the six departments will support, plus the support of the emperor, this matter will be nine out of ten."

Yuan Huang frowned, and sighed: "It's just that I don't know how many silver taels can enter the treasury to share worries for the country after the imperial court takes this silver mountain, and those people support the attack on Iwami is nothing more than to satisfy their appetites, and we want to use this to fill the treasury deficit and military needs, and it is not so easy to do, but I have suffered so many soldiers and fought bloodily, and I can't get any reward." ”

Song Yingchang shook his head: "Fan, don't say such things, the current war, you need to stabilize the morale of the army, strengthen your beliefs, and you can't shake it yourself first, understand?" ”

Song Yingchang looked at Xiao Ruxun with an expressionless face again, sighed slightly, and couldn't help but mention again: "Ji Xin, you don't have to worry too much, although the status of military generals cannot be compared with the founding period, but there will be no civil officials who will casually suppress you, this is a matter of moral bottom line, and those who touch the bottom line will cause a collective struggle of the entire military general group, which the imperial court absolutely does not want to see."

A military general, if you want to survive in the imperial court, you must learn to use your strength to fight, Ji Xin, this point, Li Chengliang is your predecessor, you have to find ways and means from his path, he won the title of earl before you with the ten controversial merits, that is, this road is good, right, his backers one after another, the old iron backers of the flowing water pavilion, have never fallen down, there was Shen Shixing Xu Guo before, and now there is a Wang Xijue who is about to return.

By the way, Ji Xin, you have to remember this, the current cabinet chief assistant Zhao Zhigao is only the acting cabinet chief assistant, the real cabinet chief assistant is Wang Xijue, Wang Xijue is an old slippery head, the year before last when the national capital dispute was the most intense, he said that his mother was sick and went home to serve the sick, no one could say anything, he got out.

As a result, in the second half of the year before last, when the cabinet and ministers suffered heavy losses, he was the only one who sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and watched the tiger fight, and now there are only two cabinet elders left in the entire cabinet, and their qualifications are still below him. ”

Song Yingchang's eyes were shining.

"What Song Gong means is that once Wang Xijue returns to the dynasty, he will take over as the first assistant of the cabinet, and Zhao Ge Lao will retire to the second assistant, and Wang Xijue is Li Chengliang's backer, I have a grudge against Li Chengliang, and Wang Xijue will help Li Chengliang deal with me?"

Xiao Ruxun understood what Song Yingchang meant.

"This is the worst speculation, what benefit can a military general get if he offends the head of the cabinet of the current dynasty? Wang Xijue will be able to return to the court in three months at most, Ji Xin, you only have less than three months left to think about countermeasures, although Zhao Zhigao supports your war and has a slight impression of you, but the second assistant cannot disobey the first assistant, back then, even Yan Song did not dare to confront Xia Yan head-on. ”

Xiao Ruxun nodded.

"Of course, you don't have to worry too much, Ji Xin, there is another situation you can take advantage of."

Xiao Ruxun hurriedly asked, "Please Song Gongming." ”

"The battle for the country." Song Yingchang suddenly laughed: "Wang Xijue withdrew when the dispute over the country was at its most intense, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that Wang Xijue did not want to clash head-on with the emperor, and did not want to lose the power in his hands and the black gauze hat on his head, which was a certain blow to his prestige, so in order to save his reputation, Wang Xijue must do something to express his position after returning to the dynasty, and then he can get the support of his ministers." ”

Yuan Huang also understood, looked at Xiao Ruxun, and laughed: "Hahaha, Ji Xin, you might as well guess, what will Wang Xijue do first after returning to the dynasty?" ”

Xiao Ruxun also laughed, nodded and said, "Your Majesty, please make the crown prince." ”

"Then Your Majesty Long Yan was furious, angrily reprimanded Wang Xijue, and began to plot to completely drive Wang Xijue out of the court, at this time, you only need to stand with Your Majesty, you can keep yourself safe, Your Majesty is Your Majesty after all, it may be inconvenient to clean up some small fish and shrimp, but the cabinet chief assistant is a big fish, or just clean it up."

Song Yingchang said everything that should be said, and Xiao Ruxun also understood it.

"This court fight, but it is not easier than you to lead the soldiers to fight, Ji Xin, you also said that when you are the main general, you take the soldiers and horses from all over the country to fight, the most taboo is to be biased, that is, you can't level the bowl of water, otherwise it will make the soldiers and horses in other places very dissatisfied, but if you really treat everyone equally, your own descendants should complain that your elbow is turned outward.

And this court competition is the same, pay attention to a common life and death, you abandoned your comrades-in-arms at the most dangerous time, let them hold on, and went home by yourself, as a result, the courtiers' years of hard work fell short, Shen Shixing, Xu Guo and others lost their officials, and the remaining courtiers had no thoughts about Wang Xijue in their hearts? ”

Yuan Huang is obviously also old in this way, and carefully analyzed the situation of this famous political struggle to Xiao Ruxun.

"If he doesn't take the lead in restarting the battle for the country, he won't be able to appease the people, and he won't be able to get the support of the ministers, and the position of the first assistant of the cabinet will naturally be unstable, and the emperor will be on guard at that time, and the ministers will hesitate, Wang Xijue will not be long before he loses his official position and goes home to retire, if it really comes to that time, Wang Xijue doesn't have the time to pay attention to you, and the emperor's accountability alone is enough to make him anxious."

"So as long as we open up the situation in Japan and win enough silver taels for Daming, Wang Xijue can't do it even if he wants to give Li Chengliang a head!"

Xiao Ruxun clenched his fist.

Song Yingchang promised to pay attention to supporting Xiao Ruxun, then he was destined to go all the way to the dark, blocking his future on Xiao Ruxun's body, Yuan Huang also made up his mind to help Xiao Ruxun complete the largest feat of splitting the enemy country that has never been seen in history, once successful, the benefits will be infinite.

On the fourth day of the first month of February, Xiao Ruxun held a military meeting, decided to leave 3,000 soldiers and horses and 50,000 prisoners of the Korean army, and gradually transported them back to China, and led the main force of the whole army of 35,000 elite soldiers to go to Japan on the ships of the naval division to discuss, destination, Iwami, strategic goals, capture the Iwami region, take Iwami Silver Mountain, and concentrate the main force to thwart Tokugawa Ieyasu's army, and set a victory for the Ming Dynasty!
