Chapter 834: Unable to Stop

Yang Sichang, the first assistant of the cabinet, felt irritated, and the attack carried out by Liaodong, in his opinion, had a certain necessity, which at least showed that Liaodong was completely stabilized, and the imperial court had the initiative in Liaodong.

But Yang Sichang is indeed dissatisfied with Chen Xinjia as the coach and leading this attack, he and Liu Zongzhou have exactly the same understanding, such a large-scale attack, the coach should be Su Tiancheng.

Yang Sichang is not a layman, military knowledge is rich, under the influence of his father, he has read military books since he was a child, and after his father was removed from his post because of the wrong decision to conquer the Liukou, he also conducted a multi-faceted analysis, thinking that the appeasement policy adopted by his father is not completely wrong, but when dealing with the leader of the Liukou, he should take a different approach, if he follows Su Tiancheng's approach, he will never forgive the leader of the Liukou, and for the following sergeants, adopt a pacifying policy, the outcome will be completely different.

On this basis, Yang Sichang did not feel strange at all in terms of military deployment.

It's a pity that he is the first assistant of the cabinet, it is impossible to compare with the former cabinet chief assistant Sun Chengzong, Sun Chengzong has a wealth of experience and unparalleled prestige, once fought in Liaodong, single-handedly created the Guanning Jin defense line, and became the backbone of the defense of the Houjin Tartars, so many years can not be completely broken, Sun Chengzong spared no effort to support Su Tiancheng, let Su Tiancheng lead the Jiangning battalion, completely wiped out the rogue who had plagued the emperor and the court for many years, and stabilized the interior of the Ming Dynasty, from these contributions, Sun Chengzong can be regarded as the first person in the cabinet.

It's a pity that a meritorious minister like Sun Chengzong finally resigned from the position of chief assistant to the cabinet.

After Yang Sichang took office, he had to be extra careful.

Cabinet assistant Tang Shiji. has received the attention of the emperor, and in the cabinet, he is the only person who can compete with Yang Sichang, which Yang Sichang does not care, if the power in his hands is too great, so that no one can compete. I am afraid that it is also time to resign from the post of first assistant to the cabinet.

All the arrangements and arrangements in Liaodong were carefully studied by Yang Sichang, and some of his suggestions also reached Liaodong through the emperor's will, for example, in terms of the opinion of a cautious attack, Yang Sichang's opinion played a decisive role.

Yang Sichang knows Chen Xinjia very well, and if he recommends Chen Xinjia, the original intention is not to let Chen Xinjia completely govern Liaodong. In terms of dispersing Su Tiancheng's power, Yang Sichang's views are consistent with the emperor's, in public and private, Yang Sichang feels that his recommendation is no problem, but unfortunately the development of things is not something he can control.

Yang Sichang will never forget his father's dying entrustment for the rest of his life, and his father believes that leading the army to fight and kill. It is by no means child's play, Wenchen serves as the coach. There are too many flaws, so Wenchen serves as the commander, and there must be a general who has experienced a hundred battles by his side, so as to ensure the victory of the battle, otherwise, the scholarly spirit will kill people.

It's a pity that the situation in Liaodong is now. There is such a danger loomingly.

Chen Xinjia's ability was recognized by Yang Sichang, but unfortunately Chen Xinjia was also a standard civil servant, who had not experienced large-scale conquests, let alone led so many troops to conquer. Originally, there was Hong Chengchou in Liaodong and Lu Xiangsheng in Yulin, these people could become Chen Xinjia's right-hand man, but unfortunately Chen Xinjia was useless, but took Qian Qianyi with him, and the two Wenchen led the army together, who can know what kind of situation will occur.

Over the years, the emperor has strengthened the imperial power, his prestige has been much greater, and the power of the cabinet has been weakened to a certain extent.

Chen Xinjia was directly recommended by Yang Sichang, and if there was any problem in Liaodong, Yang Sichang would be unable to escape the blame.

When Liaodong's emergency was delivered, Yang Sichang couldn't wait to open it.

After reading the folds, a smile appeared on Yang Sichang's face, and he breathed a long sigh of relief, and he immediately summoned many cabinet ministers to report on the folds.

The Temple of Nourishing the Heart.

Zhu Youzhen looked at the fold and smiled.

"Okay, I'm just waiting for the news of Liaodong, Chen Aiqing's victory in the first battle is worth celebrating, it only took more than an hour to take the city of Montenegro and exterminate two thousand Tartars, so it seems that the big thing in Liaodong can be decided."

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, everyone had a smile on their faces, and Tang Shiji, who insisted on Chen Xinjia as the coach, was even more happy, which proved that his recommendation was extremely correct.

"I see that I can give encouragement to the army, and I hope that Chen Aiqing will make persistent efforts to take Yizhou and Guangning in one fell swoop, so that the strategic deployment of my Ming Dynasty and the Houjin Tatars to fight the Liaohe River can be realized."

The first battle was won, and it was a matter of course for the imperial court to issue an order, Liaodong was not far from the capital, and the will could be reached soon, but Yang Sichang had a different opinion.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this will will not go down for the time being, the border army has just begun, and the victory in the first battle is certainly worth rejoicing, but the city of Montenegro is garrisoned, only two thousand Houjin Tartars, perhaps the Houjin Tartars were caught off guard, which led to the smooth attack of our army, in this case, Lord Chen should be more cautious, and must not be in a hurry, if the order is made at this time, the minister is afraid that it will backfire."

As soon as Yang Sichang finished speaking, Tang Shiji spoke.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this holy decree can be issued, Chen Xinjia led the army, the first battle was victorious, the second is the gospel of my Ming Dynasty, and it is the embodiment of the emperor's wisdom and wisdom, the emperor's decree can boost morale and promote Lord Chen to achieve greater victories, as for prudence, the minister thinks that the emperor is in the holy decree, which can be specifically mentioned."

Yang Sichang looked at Tang Shiji and did not refute, the reason he put forward for not being able to issue the holy decree was a bit far-fetched, which was also a faint worry in his heart, in fact, whether it was a holy decree or not, not the most important, the key was the deployment of the next campaign, which was the most important, Yang Sichang had a feeling, I am afraid that Chen Xinjia would not be satisfied with taking Yizhou and Guangning, if there was really such a move, it would not be a trivial matter.

Zhu Youzhen nodded.

"I still want to celebrate the victory in the first battle, but what Yang Aiqing said is also reasonable, the battle of Liaodong must be cautious and not negligent......

Liaodong, Dalinghe City.

Hong Chengchou received letters from Chen Xinjia and Zu Dale.

In fact, he had known about the victory of the border army's attack on Montenegro, and the scouts of the Jiangning battalion had already detected it.

In Chen Xinjia's letter, there was not much mention of the battle to capture Montenegro, but only mentioned that 10,000 border troops were stationed in Montenegro to stabilize the defense of Montenegro, and the garrison of Dalinghe City and the garrison of Montenegro took care of each other.

Hong Chengchou just hurriedly read Chen Xinjia's letter, and his attention focused on Zu Dale's letter.

This is Qu Qingze's arrangement, when Qu Qingze saw Zu Dale and put forward a request, asking Zu Dale to report the situation of every battle to Hong Chengchou in detail, whether it is victory or defeat, seek truth from facts.

Looking at the letter written by Zu Dale, Hong Chengchou's face became a little dark, and his smile had long since disappeared.

The border army captured the city of Montenegro in an hour and a half, and the Houjin Tartars stationed in the city of Montenegro only had two thousand people, which is too strange, it is said that the Houjin Emperor Taiji would not be stupid to this point, even if the heavy troops were not arranged to handle the city of Montenegro, at least there were more than 10,000 Houjin Tartars who were fortified, but now there are only two thousand people, which is unlikely.

Hong Chengchou walked around the house and began to think about why such a situation had happened.

The attack of the army, and the defense of Dalinghe City, Jinzhou City and even the Guanning Jin defense line, has a great relationship, Su Tiancheng said in the letter, the more fierce and cruel the initial battle, the more stable the Guanning Jin defense line, the easier the initial battle, the greater the pressure on the Guanning Jin defense line, the reason is also simple, the initial battle is easy, that is, the Houjin Tartars are preserving their strength, they did not let go, there may be a bigger scheme, the initial conquest is cruel, that is, the Houjin Tartars are determined to fight with the border army, But judging from the current situation, the battle against the city of Montenegro is too easy.

Hong Chengchou has his own analysis, no one dares to underestimate the strength of the Houjin Tartars, so many years of competition, everyone knows that the strength of the Houjin Tartars is much stronger than Liukou, if the Houjin Tartars are weak, when Su Tiancheng came to Liaodong, he would not be so cautious, after capturing Dalinghe City, he could take Montenegro, Yizhou and Guangning and other places, but Su Tiancheng did not do so, it turned out that Su Tiancheng's decision was correct, Dolgon led more than 10,000 Houjin Tartars, rampant in Dengzhou and Laizhou, There is simply no army to stop it.

Victory in the first battle, this is a good thing, it is said that there should not be much worry, if you can be able to step by step, attack at the same time, do a good job of defense, then no matter what the Houjin Tartars have, it doesn't matter, to respond to all changes, this is the royal road of conquest, as for the Houjin Tartars' field combat ability is not ordinary, the border army that has been trained for many years is not weak.

But after working with Chen Xinjia for more than a year, Hong Chengchou felt that Chen Xinjia might not adopt a step-by-step strategy, not only Chen Xinjia, but also the imperial court would not agree to this slow conquest, so next, Chen Xinjia will definitely attack Yizhou and Guangning immediately, which is shown from the letter written by Chen Xinjia, Montenegro City is a hundred miles away from Dalinghe City, and the two places want to be able to take care of each other, such a possibility is not large, and Montenegro has been occupied by the Houjin Tartars for a long time, and the local people, who are the spies, It is impossible to know the Dao, and it is impossible to screen, there are not many soldiers stationed in Dalinghe City, and it is impossible to pay attention to the situation in Black Mountain City.

Chen Xinjia pinned the safety of Black Mountain City to Dalinghe City, how could this be possible. (To be continued......)
