Chapter 415: Preparing for War
The mansion of King Fu of Kaifeng covers the most extensive area, with a grand pattern and exquisite architecture. The palace is still the same, but the plaque on it has been replaced with a new, neat three big characters: Liao Wangfu!
Gu Zhenhua was named the king of Liao and stepped on the peak of the power of the Ming Dynasty, and there was no need to hide what he did. The back of the palace is still the residence of the family, and the front is to imitate the regulations of the imperial city and establish the yamen of various ministries, which is only specific and subtle compared to the capital.
In An**'s system, the two most powerful yamen are the General Staff and the Government Affairs Yuan! The two yamen are on the central axis of the palace, one on the left and one on the right, and the staff headquarters is on the right, occupying a total of more than 20 houses. The General Staff Department has a chief to assist Gu Zhenhua and take charge of the overall situation of military affairs. There are three deputy chiefs, who are responsible for three main tasks: operations, equipment, and logistics.
The position of the chief is comparable to that of Shangshu, and the second chief is the squire, Gu Zhenhua also had the power to open the government and build teeth, but most of the officials appointed were grass platform teams, and most of them were regarded as subordinate officials of the palace. But now it's completely different, and the gold content of these official positions seems to be greater than the six Shangshu in Nanjing!
The chief of staff was served by Li Jibo, and for the first time the chief fell on Wu Kaijie's body, and there were two big words on the door of his office, right B. The simple two words are the representatives of status in the security **.
Sitting on the wide official hat chair, Wu Kaijie was complacent.
Old man Li is more than 30 years older than me, the master can afford to wait, sooner or later the chief will fall on my head, the eldest husband will be famous and fortune in life, and his name will go down in history when he dies. It seems that the master is not far away!
He hummed a little song as he pondered.
Bang bang bang. There was a knock at the door.
Wu Kaijie hurriedly said: "Come in!" ”
The door opened, and two people walked in, one was Ma Wannian. One is Li Dingguo.
Looking at these two people, Wu Kaijie suddenly smiled: "I just changed to a new place, I am dizzy and dizzy when I am busy, is there anything wrong with the two of you?" ”
Ma Wannian bowed down and said: "Lord Wu, I brought two thousand white-pole soldiers to Kaifeng the day before yesterday, and the prince promised us that he would let the white-pole soldiers fight with the Tartars. But there is no news at the moment, do you think we can not be in a hurry! ”
Wu Kaijie did not rush to answer, but glanced at Li Dingguo with a smile. He asked, "General Li, what do you mean by coming?" ”
"Back to Lord Wu, these days, when I think about it, the establishment of An ** is very different from the other armies of the Ming Dynasty. Tactics of warfare. All of them are quite novel, so Dingguo is brave and wants to ask for permission from adults, so that Dingguo can start from the bottom and work for An**. ”
"Hahaha, the two generals don't have to worry, the prince has already arranged this matter, you can rest assured!"
is between words. Footsteps outside pushed the door open. Gu Zhenhua walked in.
Wu Kaijie and the others hurriedly bowed and saluted, and Gu Zhenhua smiled and waved his hand.
"You're welcome, this king came to see if there were any negative slacking off, and I also wanted to see if anyone was promoted to a higher temper and became more arrogant!"
When Wu Kaijie heard this, his little face turned pale, and he hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, my subordinates are conscientious, they forget to sleep and eat, and they dare not have the slightest slackness!" ”
"If you are in a hurry to justify, it will show that you have a weak heart, listen to this king, don't care how big an official is, work hard, otherwise there are countless people who want to be officials."
After Gu Zhenhua finished speaking, he sat down on the chair, Wu Kaijie trembled, his eyes rolled wildly, and he stood aside with his hands down. Gu Zhenhua didn't pay attention to him, but smiled at Ma Wannian and Li Dingguo.
"The white pole soldiers fought bravely and were elite. However, there are many disagreements between the establishment and the main force of An**, and some people have broken up and incorporated them into various armies. ”
When Ma Wannian heard this, his face was inevitably embarrassed, the white pole soldiers had poured the efforts of several generations, and it would be a pity if it was dismantled. However, he didn't dare to disobey, so he could only nod and say: "It's all up to the prince to decide." ”
"Hahahaha, the white pole soldiers were originally trained to deal with the Sichuan operation, and if they were scattered, they would lose their advantages. This king decided to set up a separate mountain regiment, and for ten thousand years, you will be the head of the regiment first. In the future, they will have to fight in more places, and the mountain troops will also expand. ”
When Ma Wannian heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, the prince will definitely live up to his mission!" ”
Gu Zhenhua set his eyes on Li Dingguo again, and said with a smile: "General Li, this king heard that you have a lot of nicknames in the Great Western Army, what a small lieutenant Chi, ten thousand enemies, and so on, you can be called both wise and brave. ”
"The prince praised it falsely, the villain is just a rogue, not worth mentioning!"
Gu Zhenhua smiled slightly, didn't say anything, but went to the wall of Wu Kaijie's office, on which the battle map of North China happened to be hung.
"General Li, this king is preparing for a decisive battle with the Tartars, what do you think?"
Li Dingguo's face was embarrassed, and he said: "Lord Wang, the major affairs of the military state are not ...... generals."
"Li Dingguo, it's not good to be too modest, if you can't say anything, this king can only let you start as a small soldier, I'm afraid that in the upcoming war, the role will be limited, are you willing?"
The grandson will be willing!
Li Dingguo suddenly showed a look of pride in his eyes, and he strode to the front of the map, and looked at it carefully. When he was in Sichuan, in addition to training the army in his spare time, he constantly paid attention to the war situation in the Central Plains, and even sometimes put himself in his shoes and changed to An **'s position, how should he fight!
Gu Zhenhua asked him at this time, Li Dingguo was not stage frightened.
"Lord, if you want to go on a northern expedition, hit the Tartars, restore the old capital, and set the country to think that you should use dignified soldiers to win with righteousness."
"Sounds normal!"
Li Dingguo smiled slightly: "Lord Wang, your real cards can win Tartars, why fake!" If it's self-defeating, it's not beautiful! ”
Gu Zhenhua laughed, and even Wu Kaijie on the side couldn't help but stroke his palm and said: "General Li, I've been thinking hard about the Northern Expedition these days, but I didn't expect your words to make my efforts in vain!" ”
"Lord Wu, Dingguo thinks that An**, regardless of the source of troops or materials, is not under the Tartars, not to mention the successive battles, the hearts of the people in the north are in me, and the decisive victory is very big. But...... There are two things to note! ”
To tell the truth, Gu Zhenhua and Wu Kaijie did not have the combined time of military contact with Governor Li Ding, he has fought in most of China over the years, and his experience should not be underestimated.
"General Li, just say what you think."
"Yes." Li Dingguo said: "Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Northeast has been in turmoil, and it has been peaceful and repeated. If it weren't for the generals' carelessness, it was really vast and bitterly cold, and it was impossible to garrison the army. Therefore, the first point of the decisive battle with the Tartars is to ensure that they are completely annihilated, so as to prevent them from escaping back to the gate and causing trouble again! ”
"Reasonable, but what about the second point?"
"Watch out for Mongolia! Dingguo thought that after the great battle between Northern Henan and Lianghuai, the available army had dropped from 300,000 to more than 100,000. Compared with An**, there is no superiority in troops. Dingguo saw the sharpness of An's firearms in Chongqing, and with such firepower, the Tartars did not have twice the strength of the army, and there was no chance of winning at all. After calculation, the only people who can vigorously support the Tartars are the Mongol tribes, they have a deep relationship with the Tartars, and the Tartars also have the rhetoric of the Manchu and Mongolian families, and this group of people may not want to enter the Central Plains. ”
Li Dingguo talked eloquently, and Gu Zhenhua's heart couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
As the so-called bystander Qing, Li Dingguo's reminder is too precious, and it is indeed necessary to guard against the Mongols entering the war.
In the original history, the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not allow them to enter the customs in order to prevent the Mongols from snatching the fruits, but now it is different, and the Tartars may really adopt this method in order to save the crisis!
Gu Zhenhua nodded, "General Li's reminder is reasonable, if the general is willing, he will stay in the General Staff, be a senator, and assist Vice Minister Wu in formulating a plan." When you are familiar with the system of An**, let's lead the guards again. ”
There is no doubt that Gu Zhenhua greatly admires Li Dingguo, a famous anti-Qing general. This arrangement can also play a catfish effect, so that the staff department can move, killing two birds with one stone.
Li Dingguo has also learned about the rules of the country these days, and Gu Zhenhua's arrangement is already an exceptional promotion, and he is also very grateful.
After arranging Ma Wannian and Li Dingguo, Gu Zhenhua stared at Wu Kaijie with grim eyes, and snorted coldly in his nose.
"Zhou He, the old eunuch, returned to Nanjing, cried bitterly in front of His Majesty, and fiercely participated in the king's book, saying that I was flying and domineering, and many officials also followed up. This is you getting into trouble, wiping your own ass, is there any way to deal with it? (To be continued......)
