For Yang Bo, secretly preserving his strength and slowly developing and growing is the right way, but he has no way, there are two things in the early years of Chongzhen that have profoundly affected the trend of history, it is no exaggeration to say that these two things were announced to the sixth year of Chongzhen, and the Ming Dynasty officially entered the middle of the building.

The first is to kill Mao Wenlong,

Someone once commented: "Mao Wenlong seized Zhenjiang with 200 people, captured the rebels, and sacrificed it to his majesty, without spending the country a handful of iron, a bunch of grass, and a bucket of grain." This miracle is really wonderful, and you can send it to the side! Is it easy for a husband to be so bold? So that now there are three dragons, slaves can be captured, Liao can be restored, Yongfang, and the surname can sit and be restrained and provoked. ”

Some people also said: "The battle of Ningyuan, those who enslave the crowd and eventually have internal worries, the power of Wen Wenlong to contain it"

Some people even commented: "The person who is relying on the Great Wall overseas today is not Mao Wenlong?" ”

After Mao Wenlong's death, Dongjiang fell into a situation where the inner bar and the dragons were leaderless, which was one of them.

The second is the Dengzhou rebellion until the end Kong Youde surrendered to the Tartars, although Yang Bo knew that the Ming Dynasty finally achieved victory, but the consequences were extremely serious, the situation in Dengzhou was completely erosive, Deng, Lai and other places were ravaged, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the towns of the Ming Dynasty were destroyed, the total soldiers of all roads were lost, dozens of generals, other population losses, equipment, money and food are countless, after the battle, Denglai was barren, the Dongjiang River was shaky, and the sea clamp was forced to give up completely......

There is also a serious problem that Kong Youde threw himself into the Tartar, which not only interrupted the use of Daming firearms, but also destroyed the two major naval divisions of Daming Dengzhou and Dongjiang Battalion.

Yang Bo knows the course of history, but there is no solution, Kong Youde's cavalry, infantry, naval army and artillery are not what Yang Bo can compete with now, his only chance is to seize the temple island, with the cooperation of the naval division, use the city wall to block Kong Youde's road to tartar, in addition to him has no possibility of success. Yang Bo himself knew that if Dengzhou agreed to send the Jimo Battalion to protect the salt team, it was still a question of whether he could come back alive after this battle.

But as a person, he can ignore the life and death of the natives outside the people around him, including the brutal treatment of smelling incense bandits, soldiers, ruffians, etc., but in the face of righteousness, he can't be silent. In addition, Yang Bo also has a selfish motive, to defeat Kong Youde, that is, to delay or even cut off the time for Jiannu to use firearms on a large scale as much as possible.

Seeing that the staff officer was silent, Yang Bo smiled and said, "What's the matter, scared?" We still have the people and horses of Shijiu Santun, if you really pull it up, you may not lose, you hurry up and send this letter out, quickly, I will write a letter to Huanglong, the general soldier of Dongjiang. ”

After the letter was sent, Yang Bo was still uneasy two days later, so he wrote another letter to Yan Kunzhi, explaining the significance of a victory to the governor of Denglai from Yan Kunzhi's own point of view, and repeatedly assured Yan Kunzhi that he was confident that he would leave Kong Youde behind.

After writing, Yang Bo sent another message to Xiao Mochou, asking Shijiu to make preparations before the war, including ordering 2,000 stone of rice grain from the Yao family in advance, building firearms, swords, guns and armor, animal transportation, conscription and other logistical preparations.

Xiao Mochou was shocked after hearing the news, Yang Bo told him a thousand times before leaving, this year's spring ploughing is the top priority of Shijiu Santun, even if the sky falls, it can't interrupt the cultivation plan after the spring, at that time Xiao Mochou nodded frequently, thinking deeply, he knew that with Yang Bo's financial resources can no longer support a longer time, these displaced people from all over the country must be self-sufficient in the summer harvest season.

I didn't expect it to be a few days, huh? Yang Bo is actually going to war!

Xiao Mochou visited Yun Niang that day, took Yun Niang's letter, and gathered all the people who could speak in front of Yang Bo, and rushed to Jimo overnight......

Xiao Mochou was very unwilling, seeing that spring ploughing was about to begin, Yang Bo's plan to send troops was clearly self-destructive, but Yang Bo's determination was firm, and everyone did not listen to it.

The Jimo battalion also intensified its training, and those recruits screamed so badly that they fell asleep every day when they hit the bedboard, and they no longer had the extra strength to curse.

On the sixth day after the letter was sent, Yang Bo finally looked forward to Yan Kunzhi's reply, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath and took a closer look......

However, what disappointed him was that Yan Kunzhi first severely reprimanded him for his audacity, especially the matter of leading troops to Aoshanwei to arrest Lu Zhiliang without authorization, and then talked about the squire of Aoshanwei jointly writing a letter to impeach Zhou Guangbi and Yang Bo, and finally the conversation changed, but he told him to keep his duty, concentrate on rectifying the camp affairs, and not to live up to Lord Wen and his expectations, etc., Yang Bo read the letter three times, and there was not even a word in the whole article mentioning his request for war!

Yang Bo was disappointed in his heart, and after tearing up the letter, he beckoned his relatives and said, "Send someone to send a letter to He Jiu, and ask him to visit Yan Kunzhi in person, and by the way, inquire about the matter of asking for war." ”

On January 12, He Jiu returned to Jimo Camp and reported the ins and outs of the matter to Yang Bo in detail, and He Jiu's words broke Yang Bo's last illusion.

It turned out that Yan Kunzhi was not as unbearable as Yang Bo imagined, he abandoned his previous suspicions, proposed to Zhu Dadian to increase troops on Tunmiao Island, and proposed to transfer the Jimo battalion nearby for reinforcements, Zhu Dadian couldn't bear the unhappiness, asked about the general situation of the Jimo battalion, when he heard that the Jimo battalion was only 800 new recruits, Zhu Dadian laughed loudly, and the generals under the battalion had indignation on their faces

The Liaodong army was strong, and the soldiers and horses in the towns of Shandong, Tianjin, and Zhejiang were miserable, and Kong Youde once said wildly when he was in turmoil: "Cleaning up the Lu army is like chopping melons and vegetables, and only worrying about the soldiers outside the pass"

Zhu Dadian's subordinates are mostly Guan Ning military horses, and they are not used to being unruly, and they have the meaning of Lao Tzu being the first in the world, and now they see Yan Kun's mouth talking wildly, and humiliating Guan Ning Tieqi with eight hundred Jimo battalion soldiers, all of them are full of anger, if it is not for the identity of the big guy behind Yan Kunzhi, I am afraid that it will blow up at that time.

Yan Kunzhi stubbornly explained that Yang Bo had led 800 people to break more than 10,000 smelling incense teachings, Zhu Dadian walked away without grace, and the generals and colonels under the camp dispersed in a hurry, leaving Yan Kunzhi alone in the camp and ashamed, and the matter was over......

After listening to it, Yang Bo was speechless for a while, and the letter he wrote to Huang Long, the commander of the Dongjiang River, was simply a stone sinking into the sea, without even a ripple.

Yang Bo was originally born arrogant, and he has always regarded the law of the imperial court as nothing, but he did not dare to do one thing, that is, leaving the flood land without permission, which is the most taboo thing in the imperial court.

The next day, Zhou Guangbi came to the camp in person, and there were a few people who looked like family members and subordinates around him, they made an appointment to come to the staking field, since there was no hope of sniping Kong Youde, Yang Bo could only clean up his mood and do a good job of the enclosure first.

There are a lot of abandoned land from Jimo County to Daying, but many of them are owner, and now they are the first to use the knife are officials at all levels, and the land occupied by hundreds of households in the general banner of the whole and small flags is privately occupied, under the deterrence of nearly 100 heads hanging in Jimo County, not many people dare to jump out to die, Zhou Guangbi regardless of his fat body, he ran with Yang Bo and others, he waved his big hand, nearly 3,000 acres of cooked land was rowed for him, Yang Bo could only look at the rest of the wasteland in a daze.

Fortunately, the men and horses of the reserve camp also arrived, taking advantage of the winter leisure to overhaul water conservancy, take care of the land, fertilize the fields, etc., the harvest of abandoned land is not high, and Yang Bo does not ask them to pay rent or anything, as long as this year's cultivation can support themselves.

Unless the military households of these reserve battalions are fighting, they usually say that they have no food to take, Yang Bo pays his own money to support them, and every time he is full, he will collect some rent depending on the situation when the year is good.

Han Yan'er was busy with his feet not touching the ground, and he had to do everything big and small, what to purchase rice and grain, plough cattle, seeds, build water conservancy, ridge fields, compost, turn over the barracks, etc., he had to supervise, and finally he was really busy, transferred some people from Maojiatun, and asked Liu Lao Donkey to make a batch of farm tools over, seeing a lot of white silver flowing out of his hands, Han Yan'er was distressed and helpless.

On January 27, He Jiu sent someone to send an urgent report that Temple Island was lost!

The military household who sent the letter thought that Yang Bo would be furious, but he didn't expect Yang Bo to be quiet, Wen Yan said to him: "Get up, drink saliva first, and explain the details of the situation." ”

Junhu nodded, he was originally in the top thirty of Maojiatun Private School, and was later transferred to the Intelligence Department by He Jiu, but unfortunately Yang Bo didn't know him, he decided to behave well in front of adults today, so he didn't care about drinking tea, and first sorted it out in his stomach before saying

"Eighteenth, the rebels prepared dry food in advance, took advantage of the night to open the water gate, sent Geng Zhongming's department to feint to contain the besieging officers and soldiers, Kong Youde with 5,000 infantry troops, 1,000 horse troops with artillery and more than 100 ships to the temple island, Gong Zhengxiang was caught off guard, the initial battle was unfavorable, and most of the ships were broken, Gong Zhengxiang wanted to retreat to Huangcheng Island and the Sichuan soldiers merged to hold on, but he did not expect the death of the Dongjiang Naval Division, the two men and horses chased one to the evening, the sea suddenly hurricane rose, the Dongjiang Naval Division was desperate, and could only rush forward hard, and the ship was destroyed and people died, Except for a small number of the 4,000 officers and men who were captured, most of them sank to the bottom of the sea, and even Gong Zhengxiang fell into the sea and was captured. ”

Yang Bo sighed when he heard this: "Heavenly Death Water Master, that's a good point!" ”

The military household looked at Yang Bo carefully, and the adult didn't seem to have an angry expression, so he boldly said: "But it is so, Kong Youde saw that the wind was strong, and retreated to Temple Island that night, and early in the morning of the 20th, he led troops to Huangcheng Island, and the general Bai Laiyu led the Qianerchuan soldiers to be unable to resist, and they were defeated, and they had no choice but to descend Kong Youde, and Huangcheng Island was lost."

"Twenty-two said, Kong Youde ran to Dangji Island, a thousand soldiers guarding the island, most of the five hundred Yiding were killed in battle, and the guard Mao Ying died together, so far, the three islands are lost, and the Dengzhou portal cave is opened......"

Yang Bo turned his head to Wang Xiaoyu and said, "Spread the map"

Then he asked the soldier who reported the news: "Where are the soldiers of Kong Youdetun now?" ”

"Kong Youdetun soldiers and double islands, echoing with Dengzhou Mao Chenglu and Li Yingyuan"

Yang Bo waved his hand: "Go, thank you for your hard work"

Wang Xiaoyu looked at the map for a long time, and suddenly asked: "My lord, why did Kong Youde garrison the two islands?" Isn't he afraid of being chased by officers and soldiers? ”

Yang Bo shook his head and said nothing, but pointed to a point on the map, and all the people in the staff department were curious and surrounded him.

The place where Yang Bo pointed is ---Lushun!
