Yang Tinghe's attitude towards Xie Shen was very complicated. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

If it weren't for Xie Shen's persuasion, he might have been waiting for the opportunity to enter the cabinet now.

But the reason given by Xie Shen was difficult to refuse, and Yang Tinghe finally decided to serve as the governor of the three towns.

Now that Xie Shen said such an intriguing thing to Yang Tinghe, it is no wonder that Yang Tinghe meditated hard.

"Haha, don't talk about that."

Xie Shen smiled and waved his hand and said, "Shi Zhaigong, Your Majesty is coming to Xuanfu, it is indispensable to stay here for some time, you have to ensure the safety of Xuanfu." ”

Seeing that Xie Shen took the initiative to change the topic, Yang Tinghe finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Ge Lao rest assured, this Xuanda defense line is impregnable, and the Xuanfu is even more impregnable. Even if the Tatars attacked in a big way, they would definitely return in vain. ”

Xie Shen believes Yang Tinghe's second half of the sentence, but what about the first half of the sentence......

Rather than Xuanfu, the Tatars preferred to attack from the direction of Datong. Of course, this has something to do with the fact that the Xuanfu city is more solid, and it also has a lot to do with the topography.

If the Tatars wanted to enter the customs, they could attack from Datong. The terrain was relatively flat, and once Datong was conquered, it was possible to march quickly. And if it is to directly take the Beijing Division, you can also start from the Juyong Pass, and if the Juyong Pass is broken, the Beijing Division is a fish that can be slaughtered. Or march from the Gubeikou between Juyong Pass and Shanhaiguan, which can avoid the main garrison of the Ming army.

In Xie Shen's impression, the attack in the 29th year of Jiajing was to bypass the Xuanda defense line and go to Gubeikou.

On the other hand, Xuanfu, after the breakthrough, you have to take the Taihang Mountain Road Flying Fox Trail, which is too cost-effective.

For the Ming court, it is acceptable for Datong to be conquered, and it is absolutely unacceptable for Xuanfu and Juyong Pass to be conquered.

"I don't know how many troops there are in Xuanfu now?"

Xie Shen has some understanding of the military system of the Ming Dynasty, but it is not so clear to the end.

"Returning to the old pavilion, the town and the castles were originally equipped with horses and horses, and 58,062 new officers and soldiers, sheyu, Tuzhuang, and brave soldiers were recruited."

Yang Tinghe, as the governor of the three towns, still knows the strength of the Xuanfu very well.

Nearly 60,000 people, that's a lot!

Xie Shen was secretly surprised in his heart.

Although in Xie Shen's opinion, many of these 60,000 people are militia and other secondary combat forces, but it is better than nothing.

Xuanfu has 60,000 soldiers in one town, which is enough to show that the imperial court attaches great importance to its status.

"Shi Zhaigong, how many people are in the military register?"

"Returning to the little pavilion elder, there are a total of fifty-four thousand nine hundred and nine people."

Yang Tinghe said unhurriedly.

Xie Shen said in his heart that this Yang Tinghe is really a good memory, and he can remember it so clearly.

This number is a lot more than he thought, and it seems that most of the nearly 60,000 people are the main force.

"Well, how many horses are there?"

"There are forty-five thousand five hundred and forty-three horses in this town!"

Yang Ting and Yun said lightly.

No way!

So many horses! It seems that Ma Zheng near Jingshi still has an effect.

You must know that one of the major problems that plagued the Ming Dynasty was the shortage of horses.

This is also the inevitable result of the enmity with Mongolia and the loss of the Western Regions.

Therefore, the imperial court had to retreat to the next best thing and implement horse politics in Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Hebei.

The so-called horse politics refers to the private raising of horses.

Although these horses are not as good as the war horses in the northern and western regions, they are better than nothing, at least ensuring that the horses of the officers and soldiers are matched.

"I often hear people say that the Xuanfu school, the Datong mother-in-law, and the city wall of Jizhen want to see it this time."

This sentence is a common saying often spoken by Ming people, and Yang Tinghe has naturally heard it.

The so-called Datong mother-in-law refers to the fact that there are very many prostitutes in Datong, and they are famous for "heavy households".

And the city wall of Jizhen refers to the fact that the wall of Jizhen is very strong and indestructible. Only the walls of Xuanfu can barely be compared.

As for the Xuanfu campus, it means that the Xuanfu campus can accommodate more than 100,000 people to practice at the same time, which is six times that of the Beijing Normal School!

Although this is an exaggeration, it is enough to see the size of the Xuanfu campus. As far as Xie Shen knew, the Xuanfu at its peak could indeed garrison more than 100,000 troops.

"Haha, I'm afraid that the little pavilion elder is going to be disappointed, I'm afraid that the school field of this Xuanfu is no different from that of Jingshi."

Yang Tinghe stroked his beard and said quietly: "However, in the past year since the official took office, he has indeed felt that the people of the Xuanda generation are fierce, which is still very different from that of Jingshi. ”

Xie Shen nodded lightly, agreeing with Yang Tinghe's statement.

Xuanda needed to face the Tatar attack for a long time, so it was necessary for all the people to be soldiers and have a martial style.

Xie Shen took another sip of tea and said lightly: "I heard that Shi Zhaigong's strategy for governing the army is 'be cautious, distant scouts, armored soldiers, and diligent exercises', and now it seems to be very effective." ”

"Uh......"

Yang Tinghe's face froze, not knowing how to answer.

"This decree is indeed made by the lower officials, and it is also the result of the appreciation of His Majesty and the elders of the small pavilion today, plus the lives of the three armies."

This Yang Tinghe is quite modest.

Regardless of whether he is really modest or falsely modest, in short, Yang Tinghe has made it clear that he has made his attitude clear, that is, I am relying on the support of the Son of Heaven and Xiao Ge Lao to do all this.

Just go on the road.

"After Your Majesty rests, it is indispensable to review the army on the school grounds, and then Shi Zhai Gong will have to put more thought into it."

"This is a matter within the duties of the lower officials, please rest assured."

I have to say that Yang Tinghe is indeed a person who does great things.

His answer to Xie Shen this time was neither humble nor arrogant, and he had the style of Confucianism.

Xie Shen is quite satisfied with this. With Yang Tinghe sitting in Xuanda, he is at ease.

This time the Son of Heaven toured the north, Xie Shen was not dissuaded. But the Son of Heaven insisted on this, and Xie Shen was not good at admonishing him.

Now that you are here, you must think about everything properly, and there must be no accidents.

The Ming Dynasty could not withstand the second Tumubao Change.

"Xiao Ge Lao, Xiao Ge Lao is not in it. Don't stop our family, don't stop our family. ”

A shrill voice sounded outside the hall, and Xie Shen couldn't help frowning: "Who is this person?" ”

Yang Tinghe smiled bitterly: "Naturally, it is He Shan, the eunuch of Xuanfu's town." ”

"Oh."

Xie Shen replied lightly and said lightly, "Call him in." ”

said that He Shan was let in, and when he saw Xie Shen, he immediately changed his flattering face.

"I said, Xiaoge Lao, why don't you know if you come here to Governor Yang. The slave maid has heard the name of the old man of the small pavilion for a long time, and wants to meet it. ”

Xie Shen dealt with eunuchs a lot, and estimated that this He Shan should belong to Liang Fang's kind of person who relied on fear of sycophancy, so he also had a way to deal with it.

"This is the eunuch He Gonggong of Xuanfu, I heard about it when I was in Beijing."
