Chapter 627: The Urgency of Zu Dashou

(Thanks to the scarecrow for voting for the precious monthly ticket, thank you.) )

Su Tiancheng served as the supervisor of Jiliao, and Zu Dashou's feelings were unclear.

A long time ago, he heard of Su Tiancheng, from the mouth of his nephew Wu Sangui, at that time, Su Tiancheng was a role model for the palace test, did not stay in the capital, did not enter the Hanlin Academy, and chose to be released, Wu Sangui said that this Su Tiancheng is not simple, he is admirable at a young age, and he has a faint demeanor of a general, Zu Dashou disdains it, although the court is noble and martial, but Zu Dashou has always regarded himself very highly, nothing more than the defeat in the battle of Daling River and the surrender of Houjin, but for so many years, the hardships paid by Houjin in the fight against Houjin, Someone saw it.

Later, Su Tiancheng personally created the Jiangning Battalion, and within a few years, the mighty Ming Dynasty, at this time, Zu Dashou began to pay attention to Su Tiancheng, but he always felt that Su Tiancheng was young, perhaps relying on the courage of the soldiers of the Jiangning Battalion, so he could have such a reputation, as for the rebel Liukou, Zu Dashou never looked at it, he remembered very clearly, Cao Wenzhao once led the cavalry, and the Liukou who fought lost their armor and abandoned their armor, and those Liukou belonged to the rabble, and the Houjin Eight Banners could not be compared.

The biggest shock came from the Jiangning battalion to exterminate 30,000 Liukou, Chongzhen's ninth year of the battle, had to stick to the Guanning Jin defense line Zu Dashou, was not able to participate, when the news came, it was said that Houjin Azig led 100,000 troops, from the Xifeng Pass into the pass, wanton plundering the land of Gyeonggi, the Ming army fled, did not dare to contact at all, let alone fighting, only the Jiangning battalion led by Su Tiancheng, and the Liukou fought face to face, and the defeat of Azig fled, lost 30,000 people, Zu Dashou couldn't believe it at all, I only went to the palace of the imperial court to report it. The above news is real, including Azig's love general Aduoga, who was captured alive.

From this time on, Zu Dashou completely changed his opinion, and asked Wu Sangui several times about the details of Su Tiancheng.

Everything about Su Tiancheng after that. Zu Dashou paid special attention.

When Su Tiancheng arrived in Shaanxi, he led the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion to go deep into the Hetao area, defeated the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe, launched mutual markets in Anningbao and Jingbian, and at the same time vigorously reduced the guards in Shaanxi, which completely disturbed the situation of the Mongolian tribes and greatly reduced the rule of the Later Jin in Mongolia.

From this time on, Zu Dashou understood. Su Tiancheng is in the layout, and the direct opponent of the layout is Houjin.

Su Tiancheng's age, not only Wu Sangui is younger, what kind of young man is this.

When Su Tiancheng was the governor of the military affairs of the five provinces, the news of exterminating the Liukou and capturing Li Zicheng came out, and Zu Dashou knew that Su Tiancheng was about to come to Liaodong. According to the prestige of Su Tiancheng's military exploits, he must be appointed as the governor of Jiliao.

So when repairing the Jiliao Governor's Mansion. Zu Dashou personally supervised the formation.

It is better to be famous than to meet, and the Jiangning battalion was stationed in Jinzhou and Ningyuan, which made Zu Dashou really see hope.

It is not complicated to see if an army has a strong battle, the first time I saw the Jiangning battalion, the ancestor who fought for most of his life. There was a big chill, which was caused by the fierce aura embodied in the soldiers of the Jiangning Battalion, which far exceeded the aura of the Houjin Eighth Banner Army.

This is an iron-blooded army.

After that, Zu Dashou wanted to see Su Tiancheng as soon as possible. He had something to say, and because of the urgency of waiting, he even instructed Wu Xiang to visit the capital first.

Seeing Su Tiancheng today, Zu Dashou's feeling was warm.

Su Tiancheng's body does not have an aggressive atmosphere, but it gives people the feeling that it is a low-key decision revealed, which is a rare atmosphere, a temperament that can't be learned if you want to.

When Su Tiancheng saw him, he didn't mean to despise him, this is what Zu Dashou can feel, the difference in status between him and Su Tiancheng is too big, it can be said that today's Su Tiancheng has more power than Yuan Chonghuan back then, you must know that Su Tiancheng not only has the sword of Shang Fang, but also can act cheaply and arbitrarily, which means that Su Tiancheng can deal with everything in Liaodong and even Jizhou, Shandong and other places according to his own ideas.

Although there was only a short sentence, Zu Dashou was completely relieved, and he felt that Su Tiancheng would definitely be able to create a miracle if he served as the governor of Jiliao and guarded Liaodong.

Zu Dashou's heart, for Yuan Chonghuan was killed, there is a lot of indignation, he is not a scholar, he has always been in Ningyuan, he joined the army at a young age, his ancestors are the Wang clan of Liaodong, his cousin Zu Dale and his younger brother Zu Dabi, both served in the Guanning Jin defense line, and they were all named generals by the imperial court, especially his younger brother Zu Dabi, who was called Zu Er's madman, and he didn't want to die when he started a war.

Zu Dashou's self-reliance family's performance in the battle is still good, because during the Apocalypse, twice in Ningyuan to resist the attack of the Houjin Tartars, Zu Dashou established meritorious service, so he was promoted to the chief soldier by the right servant of the military department at that time, Liaodong Governor Yuan Chonghuan, in his opinion, Yuan Chonghuan is able to fight, much stronger than many civil servants in the court, but such a person, not honored by the court, was killed by the force.

Of course, Zu Dashou also knows a little about the struggle within the imperial court, but he doesn't care about those things, and he can't reach that height, so he can guard in Jinzhou and Ningyuan with peace of mind.

"I will meet you at the end."

"General Zu doesn't have to be polite, sit down and talk."

Zu Dashou was also bold, Su Tiancheng asked him to sit down, and he sat down, this is the demeanor of a soldier, but Zu Dashou didn't expect that Su Tiancheng had not had time to watch the situation in the backyard of the Governor's Mansion, so he sent someone to call him.

"Zu Jiangjun is a native of Ningyuan, and he must be very familiar with the situation here, can you briefly introduce it."

"Obey the order, the last general is indeed a native of Ningyuan, a rough person, the family is here, the family is also here, the last general has grown up here since he was a child, familiar with the grass and trees here, the last general thinks that Jinzhou, Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan are each other's horns, guarding the Beijing Division, if Houjin wants to harass my Daming, avoid the Ningjin defense line, the first few times, Houjin chose to enter the customs from Mongolia, avoiding the Guanning Jin defense line, but also the Guanning Jin defense line is helpless, they also have to worry about the army of the Guanning Jin defense line all the time, The imperial court arranged heavy troops in the Guanningjin defense line, and if it was flanked from the front and back, Houjin would inevitably suffer from the enemy on his back, and it would be difficult to take care of the guards. ”

"Well, it makes sense, the official also thinks that the Guanning Jin defense line is very important, since the Wanli period, Liaodong has gradually become the focus of the imperial court, but the hateful Houjin Tatar is always harassed, so that I am not at peace, and the situation is getting more and more serious, in the long run, it will definitely not work, the official is appointed as the Jiliao Governor, the pressure is very great, you must rely on General Zu, the official knows that General Zu is from a prestigious family, cousin Zu Dale and younger brother Zu Dabi are both serving in the army, and now they are stationed in Jinzhou, Zu Dabi has a nickname Zu Er Madman, He Renlong in the Jiangning camp, nicknamed He Madman, it seems that the Zu family is indeed a general. ”

"The last general will not dare, the last general will be stained, all these years, has been shameless, although it was forced to do so, but the last general failed to repay the country with death, it is really ashamed."

"Hehe, the past, don't mention it, the battle of the Daling River, the situation at that time, the official also knew the way, to the point of cannibalism, General Zu was also helpless, in that case, it was very good to be able to surrender, return to Jinzhou to strengthen defenses, and repel the attack of the Golden Tartars."

Zu Dashou was dumbfounded, how old was Su Tiancheng in front of him, in just a few words, he said the tragic situation of the Battle of Daling River, how do you know that Lu Dao is so clear, the hobby of the Battle of Daling River, Su Tiancheng is not as old as the weak crown, and he is still studying at home, how can he know these situations.

"The great man is martial arts, and the general will admire it to the end, and he will follow the adults in the future and listen to the teachings."

"General Zu said that he is not a scholar, how can he speak so literately, although this official is a scholar, he also knows the rules in the army, he eats meat and drinks wine, and he doesn't welcome those practices of literary crepe."

Zu Dashou blushed a little, Su Tiancheng is a euphemistic criticism, he has been in the officialdom for a long time, and he has learned a lot of flattery words, Yuan Chonghuan in the past loved to listen to these words, and he didn't think that this young supervisor was not interested in this set.

"The last general knows that the way is wrong, and the last general has a reluctant request, and I ask for your permission."

"Let's hear about it."

"The last general thought that the Guanning Jin defense line, with Jinzhou as the frontier, Ningyuan as the center, and Shanhaiguan as the backing, in fact, the most cutting-edge place should be in Dalinghe City, but unfortunately it was lost that year, if you want to completely stabilize the Guanning Jin defense line, it poses a threat to Houjin, and you must recapture Dalinghe City.

"This official has just taken office, General Zu is so anxious, this official sees, this matter is put aside for the time being, don't worry, wait until the official understands the situation in detail, and then make a decision."

Seeing that Zu Dashou was a little disappointed, Su Tiancheng smiled slightly.

"Since the Wanli period, my Ming Dynasty in Liaodong, all the time in a defensive situation, this situation has lasted for many years, so that many soldiers are used to it, Liaodong stationed in my Ming Dynasty many elite soldiers, the strength is even stronger than the Beijing Division, in this case, our understanding is not to change, this official looks at this Ningyuan City, during the Apocalypse, more than 50,000 military and civilian households, now less than 20,000 households, such a situation, what does it mean, need to consider, the current focus, We don't care about the gains and losses of a city and a pond for the time being, we need to muster up the morale of the vast number of soldiers and civilians, there is nothing to fear after the Golden Tartars, the soldiers will block the water to cover the earth, the terrible thing is that we are used to being afraid, so that we dare not do anything, for many years we have been cowering in the city, unable to protect the people, unable to guard the safety of my Ming territory, so that the people are disappointed in us, this is the core of the problem.
