Seeing that Pang Yue was a little confused, Emperor Longwu smiled and took the initiative to explain: "This is the crown prince, he has always wanted to meet you." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

The crown prince Zhu Linyuan, the eldest son of Emperor Longwu, was born in the second year of Longwu. In the original time and space, this child died on the way to the escape of Emperor Longwu. And in this life, because of Pang Yue's timely welcome, this child was also spared.

Pang Yue bowed again: "Weichen knocks to see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Linyuan had jumped off the chair, jumped up and walked to Pang Yue, and then put his hands behind his back, straightened his waist, pretended to be an adult, and said crisply: "General Pang, please get up, I have heard my father talk about General Pang's reputation before, and when I see it today, the general is really heroic and handsome!"

Haha, a little child, but also called a lonely widow, it's really funny. However, it is not easy to remember such a long list of words at the age of two or three

Pang Yue couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your Highness has won the award, and Weichen is panicking. How dare you enter the ears of His Royal Highness? ”

"General Pang doesn't have to be modest," Zhu Linyuan shook his hand decently, "If General Pang hadn't rescued him in time, Gu and his father and queen mother would have let Tartar catch up with him." The grace of saving lives will never be forgotten. ”

When he had finished speaking, he was going to bend down.

Pang Yue hurriedly supported him and said with a smile: "I can't help it, I can't help it!" That's all the work of the micro-ministers, His Royal Highness has tormented the micro-ministers! I remember that at that time, His Royal Highness was still in infancy, but now he has grown into a heroic young man, which makes people have to sigh that time flies, like a white horse passing through a gap! ”

Zhu Linyuan grinned and giggled. It seems that no matter what identity it is, as long as it is a child, there is no one who does not like to listen to other people's praise.

While smiling, Zhu Linyuan also picked up Pang Yue's words just now: "General Pang has won the award!" Overpraise! ”

Pang Yue finally couldn't help it and laughed.

Emperor Longwu also twisted his beard and laughed: "Okay, Huang'er, General Pang, you have also seen it." Father and General Pang still have important matters to discuss, so you can go down first. ”

Although Zhu Linyuan is small, he is also obedient and sensible. He saluted and said goodbye to Emperor Longwu, and his own eunuch hugged him down.

"This son is stubborn, which makes Pang Aiqing smile."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very smart and knowledgeable at a young age. In the future, there will be a Dao Mingjun. ”

Emperor Longwu smiled, and then, the two monarchs and ministers stepped into the main topic.

This time, Emperor Longwu summoned Pang Yue into the palace, and what he was talking about was naturally about rescuing Jiangxi.

Emperor Longwu first asked Pang Yue what were the chances of sending troops to rescue Nanchang this time. Pang Yue said that no matter what the odds are, we must do our best, and we must not let the people with lofty ideals in the world think of the Ming Room to chill their hearts, and we cannot laugh at the Ming Dynasty without anyone. Emperor Longwu pondered for a moment and nodded approvingly.

Next, some details about the preparations for war, as well as how to defeat the Qing army in the future, and if not, how to do it, Pang Yue introduced them one by one, and talked about them very late. After listening to this, Emperor Longwu also let go of most of his heart, and gave Pang Yue the greatest right to dispose of the opportunity.

While discussing this series of issues, Emperor Longwu also said that the imperial court was now in a difficult situation and could not give Huguang Town too much support on the issue of food and salary, and hoped that Pang Yue and the soldiers would understand. He also said that if he could return victoriously in this battle, the court would definitely reward him.

Pang Yue didn't even dare to say it.

The topic then shifted to Huguang.

"The Imperial Court has appointed Hong Chengchou as the strategy of the five provinces and is stationed in Wuchang, and Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming's two troops have also arrived in Wuchang, does Pang Aiqing know?"

"Yes."

"Then what do you think of the next situation in Huguang in the future? Will the Qing Lu take advantage of the stalemate in Jiangxi to go south? ”

Regarding this question, Pang Yue had also considered it before, and he had his own opinions, and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that with the presence of the Marquis of Xingguo and the generals of the loyal battalion in Jingzhou, the Qing prisoners will have some scruples and will not go south easily. But then, if the captives go to Hubei to increase their troops and send another army to contain the loyal battalion, there is a chance that the Wuchang Qing captives will take advantage of the weakness to go south. ”

Emperor Longwu nodded: "When I discussed with Lord Zhu before, I also thought of this possibility. In Pang Aiqing's opinion, once the Qing Dynasty in Hubei goes south, how can our dynasty use Hunan's soldiers and horses to reject it. ”

"If our army quickly opens up the situation and gains the upper hand in the future battle of Jiangxi, then Huguangzi can be assured."

"Then what if the war in Jiangxi falls into a stalemate, or even our army falls into a disadvantage?"

Pang Yue was solemn, got up and bowed again: "Please forgive your majesty for speaking out."

"Pang Aiqing, why is this? If there is anything to say, just get up and say. ”

How to deal with this situation? Of course, Pang Yue also thought about it and discussed it with his staff. Originally, I was going to find an opportunity to talk to Emperor Longwu. When I was asked about it today, I naturally couldn't help but say it. It's just that......

Pang Yue slowed down, and finally spoke: "Please forgive Your Majesty, once this is the case, the situation in Huguang will be threatening." Please also ask Your Majesty to forgive your Majesty for saying bluntly, once this happens, with the current soldiers and horses in Hunan, I am afraid that it will be impossible to hold Changsha. At that time, I hope that Your Majesty will not be stuck in temporary gains and losses, and can avoid entering Guangdong first, save the body of ten thousand gold, and wait for another counterattack in the future. ”

This sounds a bit pessimistic, but when you think about it, it's true. In the future, once the war falls into a stalemate, Huguang Town will be pinned down in Jiangxi, will the existing soldiers and horses in Hunan be able to withstand the southward movement of the Qing army in Wuchang? If Jingzhou's loyal battalion still has spare strength, it would be better to say that the Qing army is always a little jealous. And once the loyal battalion was also pinned down by another Qing army heading south, the situation was a little bad.

At that time, tens of thousands of Qing troops in Wuchang will be fierce, and their commanders will be veterans of Hong Chengchou and Kong Youde.

On the other hand, on the side of the Ming Dynasty, Changsha's He Tengjiao controlled several towns and horses with nothing on the surface, but in fact, they were scattered and embarrassed.

Although Changde plugs Yinxi with both virtue and ability, he can also control the soldiers and horses of Ma Jinzhong's troops under the system, but his strength is limited after all, and he may not be able to return to the sky.

The first garrison battalion in Huguang Town in Yuezhou is a newly built battalion, and there are only a few thousand people, so it is unlikely that they will turn the tide.

Huang Chaoxuan of Youxian County? In the original history, this duke surrendered to the Qing army without bloodshed.

Emperor Longwu didn't know anything about this, and after listening to Pang Yue's words at this time, his expression was even more solemn: "Is there no other way?" ”

"Unless you don't save Jiangxi, all the soldiers and horses will be stationed in Hunan. But this can only be avoided for a while. If you don't save Jiangxi, and wait for the captive court to free up your hand, Huguang will also fall to this point sooner or later, just sooner or later. Therefore, the only way to do this is to make every effort to win the battle of Kiangsi, which is the key to resolving all the crises in our dynasty. Also, as the folk saying goes, stretching out the head is a knife, and shrinking the head is also a knife. So why not stick out and give it a hand? ”

Emperor Longwu lingered in silence for a long time, and finally laughed, and the expression on his face was also relieved, and said: "The life and death of the country is profitable, how can it be avoided because of misfortune and fortune." This is Pang Aiqing's poem. Regardless of personal safety and gains and losses, strive to win for national affairs, this is also Pang Aiqing's style of acting. Good! Good! Good boys are just like that! ”

Emperor Longwu called a series of goodies, then turned back to the dragon chair and sat down: "In this way, it seems that I have suffered too much from gains and losses before. That being the case, Pang Aiqing was relieved to rush to Jiangxi. What is needed, as long as I can do it, I will never pass the buck. As for the Hubei Qinglu, whether they go south or not, I will not leave Xingdu easily. There is a way that enterprising ministers do not do nothing. Pang Aiqing is an enterprising minister, even if I can't do it, I should be courageous. ”

Pang Yue wanted to persuade him again, but Emperor Longwu shook his hand and stopped him.

"Pang Aiqing doesn't want to chill the people with lofty ideals who miss the Ming Dynasty in the world, and I don't want to. I was in this line of work, waiting for the news of the triumph of the army to aid Jiangxi. Although Pang Aiqing is also relaxed, the coming day is long, and in the future, you and I will go to Nanjing to pay tribute to Taizu and Beijing to pay tribute to Emperor Lie. Emperor Longwu's tone was full of confidence. (To be continued.) )
