The first wind and rain drifted away

The Duixiu Mountain in the palace garden has always been a good place to climb the Double Ninth Festival in the palace.

The stacked stones in the garden are unique, the road is coiled, there is a stone carving dragon spraying water under it, and the Yujing Pavilion is built on it, and you can overlook the beautiful scenery around the capital.

Emperor Chongzhen, Sun Chuanting, and Lu Xiangsheng were three people who had a cup of tea and talked about it here.

"Hong Chengchou, the governor of the three sides of Sichuan and Shaanxi, has extraordinary ability, acts decisively and ruthlessly, and is a capable minister to solve the chaos.

But he is too tactful, too utilitarian, and calculates.

Lu Aiqing has dealt with him and should know a thing or two.

And Sun Aiqing is dealing with him for the first time, and he is his subordinate, working together, and it is better to keep an eye on everything in the future.

But it's nothing, when Hong Chengchou I have other uses, his position will be yours sooner or later. ”

Emperor Chongzhen closed his eyes slightly, sniffed the teacup, looked very comfortable, and explained to Sun Chuanting lightly in his mouth.

What is a henchman?

That's it!

Things are explained to you thoroughly and thoroughly, and everything that should be said should not be said, rather than being in the clouds, let you figure it out and experience it yourself.

"Thank you for the emperor's mention, thank you for the emperor's love, and the ministers should pay attention to it in the future."

Sun Chuanting leaned over slightly to thank him, and his heart was really moved.

Jane is in the emperor's heart, and I am afraid it is difficult to show the emperor's importance to himself.

In addition to serving his life to Xie Junen, Sun Chuanting couldn't think of any other way to repay the emperor.

"Lu Aiqing took office this time, and he must be vigilant against the military officials under his command.

Shanxi Jin merchants smuggled Tartars and Jiannu, and the huge profits were heavy, and it was impossible to eat alone, and there must be border generals involved.

Among them, special attention should be paid to Wang Pu, the deputy chief soldier of Datong, and Jiang Huang, the general of Zhenshuo, and Jiang Huang, the general of Datong.

However, for the sake of safety, you should ignore it for the time being, and just recruit and train the army. ”

Turning his head, Emperor Chongzhen began Lu Xiangsheng's instructions again.

The Jin merchants were so rampant in smuggling, because everyone knew that this place could not do without the support of the border army generals.

Just like the *** of Yuanhua in later generations, how many people escorted him to create a huge smuggling empire.

Now, the Jin merchants can occupy an important position in the Ming Dynasty, and can become the only merchant gang that competes with the Jiangnan merchants, and even exceeds the trend, ranking first in the Ming Dynasty.

Behind this, it is inseparable from the support of the court bigwigs and the border army.

Officials, businessmen, officials and businessmen have always been officials in the front and businessmen in the back, and only by colluding with each other can they be powerful, which is really a natural wolf and embarrassment.

Lu Xiangsheng leaned over to obey the order, raised his head and asked, "How many people does the emperor think is appropriate?" ”

In fact, his subtext is, how many silver taels do you have prepared for the old man?

Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly, his heart was boiling, and his eyes were beating with fiery light.

"Lu Aiqing, for a long time, your Tianxiong army has been limited by salary, and it has never been able to expand into an army on a large scale.

This time, you can let go of your hands and feet and go around to select excellent soldiers, as many moves as you want.

I will be responsible for all the necessary salaries.

I only hope that Aiqing can carry forward the Tianxiong army of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, and recreate an invincible iron army with great prestige for the Ming Dynasty. ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers will live up to their mission!"

Lu Xiangsheng left the table and knelt on the ground, tears of excitement crossed the bridge of his tall nose, and he couldn't help but cry.

Rebuilding the Tianxiong Army and protecting the Ming Dynasty has always been his lifelong dream.

Now, there is finally hope.

The mountain breeze blows, bringing bursts of refreshment, but it also opens up the historical memories of the three monarchs and ministers of the Tianxiong Army.

The Tianxiong Army was not created by Lu Xiangsheng, but was created by General Xu Da, and it was the successor General Lan Yu who carried him forward.

is the commander of the Tianxiong Army, the same is the military soul of the Tianxiong Army, and the same is the Anhui Pao Ze that was killed under the Wufeng Slope.

Some people say that Xu Daqian, Lan Yu is crazy. Xu Da slammed the horse spoon, and Lan Yu ate the small stove.

Xu Da Kuanren, Lan Yu is easy to kill. Xu Da is dedicated, and Lan Yu is obscene. Xu Dashan finally pursued him, and Lan Yu was convicted and died.

Two people with very different personalities and fates, but they are close comrades-in-arms for life, gathered under the banner of the Great Ming Sun and Moon War, stepped on the dust one after another, and achieved the reputation of the same god of war.

The young Xu Da handed over the war knife to the young Lan Yu, and the elderly Xu Da handed over the fate of the Tianxiong Army and the unfinished dream to the middle-aged Lan Yu.

Finally, in the wind and sand of the fishing sea, a silent and sharp dagger was inserted.

So far, he has made the invincible prestige of the Tianxiong Army spread to the world.

But at the same time, he also destroyed the Tianxiong Army.

Since then, the Tianxiong Army has been annihilated in the long river of history and has been unknown.

And future generations only know Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army.

All this is because of Lan Yu, a very controversial figure.

Anhui Dingyuan people blue jade. This man says it's complicated but simple.

A cold-blooded and ruthless battlefield general, a cavalry warfare expert who has no division, and a pioneer in several classic battles of the Tianxiong Army.

From a child soldier to a general, from a general to a marshal, an outstanding military strategist who was on a par with Xu Da in the fifteenth century.

It's simple, but it's more complicated, winning a battle has been a basket, and the evil things of robbing men and women have also been done.

He was arrogant enough in front of the enemy, even more arrogant in front of his colleagues, and Zhu Yuanzhang was still arrogant in front of him, and finally he was so arrogant that he was exterminated by his family, and he couldn't avoid spitting when he died.

People who like him say that he is a national hero and a pillar of the country, and those who hate him scold him as a chaotic minister and a thief, and an arrogant general.

The Tianxiong Army led by Xu Da does not take a stitch from the masses, and it is an exception to put it on Lan Yu alone.

It is often the army that does not leave an inch of grass everywhere, occupies Kaifeng, and burns the palace of the Central Plains of Mongolia with a fire.

Of course, all the treasures are robbed and then burned, Kehandan, what if I rob things and rob people?

The daughters of the Mongol princes in the city were all given to the warriors as "common wives".

Personal life is also very corrupt, there are many victories and battles, and there are more national disasters and wealth.

Legend has it that there are groups of wives and concubines in the family, and the ethnic minorities of the Han nationality can form a women's army, and they have to turn over the cards before going to bed every night.

I am happy to turn it over several times in one night, and it is said that it is more moisturizing than that of Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor.

Of course, killing people is even more unblinking, the ancients said: Killing is ominous. Lan Yu replied: Ominous size.

Every time he captured a city, he was busy catching traitors who had been on errands for the Mongols, and when he was caught, he was slaughtered with a knife, and he caught prisoners on the way to the march, and he was afraid that he would be a burden to go, so most of them were pulled out and cut down.

The most jaw-dropping is the Battle of Luoyang, a fleeing Mongol army was surrounded by him, the white flags were hung out, and Lan Yu waved his hand: Don't surrender, destroy on the spot.

On the way back to the court, Lan Dashuai poured two more pots of celebration wine, and actually touched the embroidery room of the captured Mongolian queen at night.

After some clouds and rain, the Mongolian queen was so humiliated that she hanged herself......

Debauchery, cruelty, inferior to beasts, for hundreds of years, how many righteous men and gentlemen shook their heads and cursed.

Beasts, plus they dare to be arrogant in front of the emperor, who can tolerate such a domineering general?

In the end, it seems normal to be destroyed by sin.

Later generations of military enthusiasts often shouted about the self-destruction of the Great Wall, but at that time, righteous people and gentlemen commented on two words: deserved.

But it is this unlucky "beast" who has done many good things that upright men and gentlemen can't do.

For example, in the Battle of Hongdu, Lan Yu was ordered to lead the army to intercept the enemy's reinforcements, and on the way to the march, he happened to meet a group of refugees who helped the old and the young flee the famine.

Lan Yu immediately ordered to take out military rations to relieve the refugees, and let the people let go of their bellies to eat.

The weak question of the guards is what do we eat? Lan Yu glared: If you don't eat a meal, you can't fight?

As a result, the rations of 2,000 soldiers were exhausted by the victims, and the soldiers charged the enemy hungry and won a great victory.

Another example is the issue of discipline, they all say that the blue jade is looting, but they all forget that he robbed all the princes and nobles, and the common people never touched it, and whoever touched it would be killed.

Once, a soldier who had saved Lan Yu's life raped and slandered the people's daughter, and the angry Lan Yu scolded: Only those who are incapable bully the people's families. Dragged it out and cut it.

The establishment of Jizenin Temple is even more meritorious!

Everywhere Lan Yu went, he ordered people to search for orphans who lost their parents in the war, set up a charity house to provide for them, eat and drink three meals a day, and asked Mr. to teach him to read and write.

In her spare time, Lan Yu often comes to Jishan Courtyard to inspect, and those who dare to deduct children's food are all redone, and often play with children for fun.

Every now and then, the lively cheers always ripple on Lan Yu's scarred face.

It is difficult for the children in the laughter to think that the amiable "Uncle Blue" in front of them is actually a ruthless death on the battlefield.

As for the war money, it is also worth mentioning, for many years, Lan Yu has robbed a lot, but it can be spent more.

The orphans of the dead soldiers have been provided by him for many years.

The battle of Yuerhai, which destroyed the entire Mongol Empire, before the expedition, Lan Yu ordered to check all the 150,000 soldiers, and if there were unmarried ones, they hurried to Zhang Luo to ask for a wife to marry, and the money was not enough for me to get it.

After tossing before going on the road, the deputy general Wang Bi was puzzled, and Lan Yu sighed: This battle is nine deaths, let the brothers leave a queen for the family.

Hundreds of years ago, 150,000 Han Chinese from the Central Plains invaded Mongolia in the north, followed by sandstorms, strong winds, showers, harsh grassland environment, and then water and food shortages, lost their way, and despair.

However, there was no chaos, no collapse, just gritted his teeth all the way to the end. Walk to the shore of the silent fisher, and then the decisive battle, no miracle.

The soldiers who followed them believed in Lan Yu, who may be cruel or desolate, but he took away a beating heart, and following his gaze, he followed an immortal soul.

Maybe he wasn't a good guy, maybe his ultimate tragedy was the retribution of evil.

But only those who have gone through the sword light and blood shadow will understand: he is a soldier and bears the military soul of the Tianxiong Army.

His sword, always pointed at the enemy's edge. Righteous people and gentlemen don't understand these, and they don't bother to understand them.

Therefore, the gentlemen of the Taoist people do not understand why after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, this beast still asked for the Northern Expedition to Mongolia again and again, they said that this is called "inviting merit and greedy war".

They didn't understand why this beast roared in the court again and again over the pension of the dead soldiers, and they suspected that this beast was eating empty quotas.

They also don't understand why this beast likes to use its own money to help people, they say that it is to buy people's hearts, and they must want to rebel......

With a long sigh, Emperor Chongzhen muttered to himself, "Where is my blue jade?" ”
