Chapter 579: New Ideas
After Lu Ning had taken over all the Ma's farms near Daningwei, Feng Sheng and Zhu Xiongying collected their troops and returned.
Lu Ning and Ma Zhenzhen were also invited into the marshal's mansion on the Daning Acropolis, and saw that the Ming flag was hung on all sides of this ancient city.
He suddenly thought that in his previous life, he once went to the ruins of Daningwei to play, and found that the ruins of that ancient city were still called Daming Town at that time.
At that time, he was a little puzzled, isn't this place a place for nomads, why is it called Daming Town.
Now I see Feng Sheng rebuilding the Da Ning Acropolis and hanging the Ming banner on the city wall, perhaps this is the first time that the Ming Dynasty has raised its prestige outside the pass.
Therefore, in that time and space seven hundred years later, although the ancient city of Daningwei has long been turned into a mound of wasteland, and all the monuments there, only a stele of "Ningwangfu" remains, and three ancient towers that are said to have been built in the Liao Dynasty.
However, the name Da Ming has been retained.
When they arrived at the Shuai Mansion, some veterans had already invited Ma Zhenzhen to another room, and found some local maids to serve.
On the way here, she knocked on the side to ask the old army about Lu Ning's deeds in Daming.
As a result, the old gentleman said some legends of Lu Ning like a few family treasures, and Ma Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment, and said that his vision was not bad, and he had found such an excellent husband.
What worries her is that she has such an excellent husband, so she is naturally unwilling to stay in this small temple in Saibei, how long can she keep him?
Feng Sheng was very polite and asked Lu Ning to sit in the position of the main general.
Lu Ning originally went to the Northeast to develop the economy here, and he was quite reluctant to interfere in the military affairs of the Ming army, so he told him.
"It's all unplanned for me to come here, General Feng, even if you deal with your own affairs, you should be without me."
He deliberately found a chair to sit next to him, and he couldn't make Feng Sheng so maneuvering.
I wanted to give an order to say something, but I didn't know what to say, so I said it to Lu Ning again.
"Your Royal Highness, you are more familiar with military affairs than I am, what are you going to do next? I beg you to command, although you are not the commander of this army, but your prestige in our court is quite great, and you are the most trusted prince of Your Majesty, the last general implores you to serve as a supervisor of the army. ”
Lu Ning sighed secretly, thinking that it was not difficult for this guy, so he nodded and said to Feng Sheng.
"General Feng, now that we have won this battle, what are you going to do with Nahachu, who has fled? Let's send the military order to deploy. ”
Feng Sheng quickly stood up and hugged Lu Ning's fist.
"The last general obeys!"
Then, just like the Super Saiyan in the cartoon, he immediately fought with a twelve-point spirit and issued orders to various generals in an orderly manner.
These people did not have any different opinions about Lu Ning's temporary appointment as the supervisor, and they each took care of their own affairs.
When all the generals had dispersed, the three men did not disperse.
Feng Sheng hurriedly stepped down from the handsome position and said.
"Your Highness, I heard that the Naha Exit Department has retreated to the original Hongjira Department, should we send troops to continue the encirclement and suppression?"
Lu Ning asked him, "What did Your Majesty and the Crown Prince tell about this?" ”
Feng Sheng replied respectfully.
"They told me to clean up the remnants of the Northern Yuan here, and then pass through the north, as for how to go through it, the end will be a mess here."
Lu Ning suddenly asked again.
"What do the scholars suggest?"
Feng Sheng said respectfully: "The scholars and scholars of the various ministries have suggested that Your Majesty drive them all away, and then try to rekindle hatred among these surrendered tribes, so that they hate each other and attack each other. This policy is called divide and rule, and in the end, each is broken. ”
For the enemy country at that time, it was not surprising that the Ming Dynasty made such a countermeasure, but Lu Ning, who looked at the entire history of the Ming Dynasty, did not think so.
"General Feng, you said that my current scientific and technological and economic capabilities are so strong, can you still use this method? Of course, this is my personal opinion, and what the ministers of the DPRK and China have said is not bad, so you just need to do what they say. ”
Feng Sheng heard the mystery in Lu Ning's words, so he said.
"May I ask Your Royal Highness, do you have any other opinions? The last general is willing to listen to him. ”
"Actually, I think one of Du Fu's poems says it well: If you can control aggression, how can you kill more? The cost of fighting a war is quite large, even if I have a bumper harvest every year in the first few years of the Ming Dynasty due to sweet potatoes and potatoes, but we have fought these battles, and they are almost consumed, do you think we can continue to fight him for ten or eight years? ”
Feng Sheng was speechless, to be honest, this time he sent troops to Liaodongwei, and all the military rations were provided by the Shandong Buzheng Division, and until now the people have suffered a lot.
If the fight continues, the army will have to raise food from ordinary herdsmen and civilians outside the country.
Although this area was once occupied by the enemy, a long period of looting will inevitably cause a strong backlash, even if he is the reincarnation of a generation of war gods, he may not be able to bear it.
This is also the reason why Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, had the glory of the Five Expeditions to Mobei, but after the fight, he had to withdraw in embarrassment.
It's not that he wants to withdraw in his heart, it's that the goods and interests there can't support the million-strong army.
The so-called conquest, the spoils of war obtained are the barren desert, and the political significance is more than its economic significance, which is also the reason why the emperors after Yongle are reluctant to fight further north.
Of course, in later generations, there was also a so-called "Ming God of War" Zhu Qizhen, and his "Royal Expedition" was just a joke about giving people heads.
