Chapter 209: Recommendations

Wang Zaijin's conservative strategy made it difficult for him to win much support in the court, and many people below him were dissatisfied. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In August, he was transferred out of Liaodi and transferred to the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, and was replaced by Sun Chengzong, who is now a scholar of the Dongge University, a scholar of the military department, and an imperial teacher.

After Sun Chengzong took office, he made great moves against the army in western Liaoning, dismissed some of the old, weak, sick and disabled, organized and trained many new troops, and at the same time, promoted a large number of young generals, integrated the Guanning generals more closely, and the prototype of the Guanning army has been formed.

Among them, the one who benefited the most was Zhao Shujiao, who recovered the 'great achievement' of Qiantun.

Under the protection of Sun Chengzong, Zhao Shujiao has become the chief soldier.

At the same time, Sun Chengzong sat in Liaoxi, Tianjin Governor Li Banghua sat in Tianjin, and Denglai Governor Yuan Keli sat in Denglai, and the Ming Dynasty's inherent defense system against the Houjin Army was basically formed.

At this time, Sun Chengzong was inspecting the defense in Qiantun, and Li Yuanqing rushed directly to Qiantun by boat.

Mao Wenlong's conservative posture also made Li Yuanqing understand more and deeper things.

Although Li Yuanqing can also be regarded as Mao Wenlong's pro-soldier sequence, there is still a difference between pro-soldier and pro-soldier......

Along the way, Li Yuanqing was also thinking carefully, why did Sun Chengzong want to see him? What is his specialty that can make others notice?

From Shenyang all the way to the present, Li Yuanqing has almost crawled out of the pile of dead people, and the Tartars he has killed are at least 1,800, if not many.

In terms of merit, I am afraid that I can get rid of Zhao Shujiao for dozens of streets.

But the fact is that Zhao Shujiao has become the chief soldier, while Li Yuanqing is just a guerrilla.

Of course, Zhao Shujiao's background is hundreds of times more noble than Li Yuanqing, and he also has the meaning of Sun Chengzong's 'daughter buying horse bones', but Sun Chengzong's support can't help but make people think.

Dongjiang, the pattern is too small.

Big fish, only in the big river, will live better.

But if you jump directly to Liaoxi, it is absolutely unwise.

Let's not talk about the intricate entanglement of Jiangmen, at least, in the Dongjiang River, Li Yuanqing still has Changsheng Island, his Changsheng Island, but the dilemma of Liaoxi, what can he do with this bit of land?

The journey was smooth.

Li Yuanqing has been here several times and is no stranger.

It's just that, compared with the previous time, Qiantun has changed a lot, the original scattered refugees have disappeared, outside the fort, there are a lot of newly built houses, although the people in the past still have vegetables, but compared with before, there has been a huge change.

Entering the fort, the streets are also very neat, the shops on both sides look quite prosperous, although the flow of people is not much, but it is more regular.

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but nod secretly.

The reason why Zhao Shujiao is famous in history is indeed because he has the ability.

Of course, it may also be that Sun Chengzong is here, and there are a lot of face projects.

When he came to the official hall, Li Yuanqing directly reported his name, and soon, he got a message, and the elder let Li Yuanqing in.

Facing Sun Chengzong, a giant, Li Yuanqing also packed up his thoughts, briefly sorted out his appearance, followed behind the servant, and walked into the house quickly.

Before, Fang Zhenru had feasted Li Yuanqing, Zhang Pan and Chen Zhong in this official hall, Li Yuanqing was no stranger, at this time, although the indoor scenery had not changed much, but Sun Chengzong's name was here, and Li Yuanqing couldn't help but start to be a little nervous.

"General Li, please stay here for a while, and the elder will come over later." After the servant finished speaking, he left softly.

Li Yuanqing dared to really sit down, and hurriedly gave it up.

A glimpse of the whole leopard can be seen.

Just looking at the posture of this servant, there is no arrogance of the 'seven-rank official in front of the prime minister', which also makes Li Yuanqing relax a little, the famous Sun Ge Lao should not be a person who likes to put on a show.

Not long after, an old man in a purple python robe about sixty years old walked out of the inner room with the support of a small servant.

Li Yuanqing hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Li Yuanqing, the lowly commander of the Dongjiang Army Changsheng Island, has seen the elder of the pavilion. ”

As he spoke, he kowtowed a few times.

Sun Chengzong smiled faintly, "General Li, please get up quickly." Give General Lee a seat. ”

"Yes." The little guy hurriedly moved a seat for Li Yuanqing.

"Xie Ge Lao." Li Yuanqing stood up cautiously, but he didn't dare to sit down, half of his buttocks touched the wooden pier seat slightly, and looked at Sun Chengzong respectfully.

Sun Chengzong's face is very broad, and a lot of white silk can already be seen in his eyebrows and hair, but he is in a good state of mind, and his eyes are embarrassed.

He looked at Li Yuanqing with a smile, "General Li, the old man has heard of your name a long time ago." Originally, the old man wanted to see you for a long time, but unfortunately, the affairs were complicated during this period of time, and he only had time in the past few days. ”

Li Yuanqing hurriedly bowed his hand respectfully and said, "The elder of the pavilion is in love." Despicable and vulgar martial arts, the work of the end is not enough to worry about. ”

Sun Chengzong smiled, "General Li, you don't have to be too humble, you have done a good job in capturing Huerhan, including the Battle of Lushun some time ago." ”

Seeing Sun Chengzong's kind attitude, Li Yuanqing also relaxed a little.

At Sun Chengzong's request, Li Yuanqing briefly recounted the battle of Lushun to him.

When Sun Chengzong heard this, his brows furrowed, and he was silent for a long time.

Li Yuanqing understood that Sun Chengzong's fortress strategy should have taken shape now, so he attached great importance to the success of the Lushun defense battle.

Li Yuanqing didn't say much, quietly waiting for Sun Chengzong's thoughts.

After a long time, Sun Chengzong smiled and said: "General Li, in your opinion, if you build a fort in western Liaoning, how should you deal with the Houjin offensive?" ”

Here it comes.

Li Yuanqing was clever, and his mind was spinning rapidly.

Sun Chengzong wants to build a fort in western Liaoxi and adopt a fixed-point defensive strategy, I'm afraid, this is already a foregone conclusion. It is also the wish of many parties.

Even if he knew that this would drag down Daming's finances, how dare Li Yuanqing say more at this time?

After thinking about it carefully, Li Yuanqing said: "Returning to the old pavilion, I think that the most important thing in building a fort is to take advantage of the geographical advantage, and several key points of the card master Liaoxi, blocking the only way for Houjin to attack Liaoxi." ”

Sun Chengzong nodded, Li Yuanqing's words did not have much nutrition, he motioned to Li Yuanqing to continue with his eyes.

Li Yuanqing paused and secretly glanced at Sun Chengzong.

If you want to leave a shadow in Lao Sun's heart, you must have some fierce medicine, but you can't make taboos.

"Elder Ge, I think that my understanding of Houjin in the Ming Dynasty actually had a lot of mistakes before." Li Yuanqing cautiously tried and secretly looked at Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chengzong frowned, "Oh? Why? ”

Li Yuanqing continued: "Elder Ge, Houjin is actually not only good at field warfare, but also extremely good at attacking cities. At that time, Shenyang, Liaoyang, Guangning, including Xipingbao, were all descended from Houjinke City. In Zhenjiang and Lushun before, they all faced the siege of Houjin. In the humble opinion, even if the terrain of the city is dangerous, as long as there is time, the Houjin army can bulldoze and fill the ditch to make up for the lack of terrain. And most of these people are slaves of our Han people, and they will not waste the military strength of Houjin at all. So, when the fort was established, it was a big factor for us to consider. ”

Sun Chengzong nodded, sighed and said, "Tartar barbarism, this is the pain of my Ming Dynasty. General Lee, do you have any good ideas? ”

Li Yuanqing said: "To prevent this kind of bulldozing offensive of the Tartars, I think there are two main aspects. First, it is necessary to ensure that the fort is strong, the roads are clear, and in the event of a war, reinforcements can arrive as soon as possible. ”

Sun Chengzong nodded slowly.

Li Yuanqing said again: "Moreover, it is necessary to set up some long-range defensive weapons in the city, which can suppress the advance offensive of the Tartars at a long distance. This is also the experience of the humble duty in the battle of Lushun. Once the Tartars' bulldozing campaign was thwarted, they had little to do but stall for time, using the night or other times to do so. This will give our army more time. It will also give our army more opportunities to stop their offensive. ”

Sun Chengzong looked at Li Yuanqing, "General Li, I don't know what you mean by the long-range defensive weapon?" ”

Li Yuanqing hurriedly said: "Pavilion Elder, I heard that in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, I bought a kind of red-coated cannon from the Yi people in Macao. This kind of cannon is far superior to my Ming earth's cannon, it is powerful, and the firing range can reach one and a half miles away. If you can set up this kind of sharp weapon in the fortress fortress city, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort, so that the Tartars cannot advance half a step. ”

This method was proposed by Inspector Yuan when he was repairing Ningyuan City, and he began to implement it specifically.

At this time, Li Yuanqing told Sun Chengzong directly and straightforwardly.

With Sun Chengzong's energy, what kind of salary and baggage, this is not a problem at all.

Instead of letting these bigwigs of the Guan Ning Army spend their money on a luxurious life, it is better to buy more red-clothed cannons, even if they let the foreign devils earn some silver, but these things are at least useful and will not be wasted.

After Li Yuanqing really stabilized and established a navy, sooner or later he would let these foreign devils spit out what they had eaten in their mouths.

Sun Chengzong pondered for a long time when he heard this.

With his experience, he knows about the red-clothed cannon, and in fact, under his command, there is also a civil servant who admires the red-clothed cannon very much.

At this time, Li Yuanqing, a front-line general, had valuable experience gained from actual combat, which added weight to Sun Chengzong's heart.

"Huh. The old man wrote down this matter. General Lee, what else do you think about the Tartars? ”

Sun Chengzong also asked Li Yuanqing a lot of questions, all of which were about the fighting habits and living habits of the Tartars.

In this regard, Li Yuanqing knew very well and answered Sun Chengzong one by one.

From noon to afternoon, a few hours passed, the two of them didn't eat, Sun Chengzong was still a little unsatisfied, at this time, the little guy ran over and whispered a few words to Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chengzong smiled a little tiredly, "Hehe, what you said was so enjoyable, the old man forgot the time." Yuanqing, you're hungry too, aren't you? It just so happens that there is a dinner party in the evening, so you should come and join it too. ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand and said to the little guy next to him, "Take General Li down to have a good rest." ”

"Yes." The little servant saluted respectfully and said to Li Yuanqing: "General Li, please come with me." ”

Hearing that Sun Chengzong no longer called himself General Li, but called Yuanqing, the corners of Li Yuanqing's mouth curled up slightly, today's saliva was finally not in vain, and he hurriedly said respectfully: "Elder Ge, I will retire first." ”

Back to the book friends all over the world, your skills are very deep, many questions are very clear, and your ideas are also very accurate.

When it comes to pig's feet, there are several main aspects.

One is time, at this time it is only the second year of the Apocalypse, the imperial court is huge, and there are many things that Wenchen can do, but military generals must not do.

Pig's feet think about survival first, then promotion, military merit, and accumulating their own strength.

The second point is the issue of the Dongjiang River.

Pig's feet are from Dongjiang, and it is not difficult to change, but if you want to make meritorious contributions, you are still in Dongjiang.

Falling into an entanglement with Wenchen too early doesn't do much good.
