Chapter Ninety-Five

He Xi didn't want to offend Feng Sheng.

What does it mean to have less success than to fail?

In the entire Goryeo war, Feng Sheng was quiet as if he didn't exist. It seems that the Japanese battlefield in Goryeo is not about Feng Sheng.

This is not the case, right or wrong.

That's right, that is, when Feng Sheng didn't interfere too much in the Goryeo battlefield, it was indeed like this. It's not right, it's easy for Feng Sheng to do something. After all, Feng Sheng, the prince of the country, was not given for nothing. Feng Sheng and his brother had deep roots in the Ming army.

Let's put it this way, Feng Sheng's brother, when Feng Guoyong led the team to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang appointed Feng Guoyong to lead the pro-army. That's right, Zhu Yuanzhang is a pro-army, and Feng Guo created it single-handedly. Needless to say, the influence. Of course, it is not as good as Xu Da. But it's not a blue jade, comparable to Fu Youde.

And pulling back the legs, there is no need for any technical content. He didn't even need Feng Sheng to come forward, he just sent someone to pass on a few messages.

Of course, Feng Sheng did not do this without a price.

Who is Your Majesty today? Zhu Yuanzhang. That's a man who doesn't tolerate sand in his eyes. Feng Sheng's actions were impossible to conceal from Zhu Yuanzhang. Feng Sheng will definitely pay the price in the future. But Feng Sheng felt that he could afford to pay the price.

If he didn't seek the merits of the Northern Expedition, what fun would he have if he Feng Sheng was the general? Ordinary guarding skills, for Feng Sheng, there is no difference at all.

But at that time, Feng Sheng was certainly not happy. But He Xi is better. Even if Zhu Yuanzhang is protected, He Xi will be hostile to a considerable number of nobles. And He Xi also knew that it was not Feng Sheng alone who coveted the work of destroying the Yuan. There are a lot of people behind this.

He Xi is not in the way of one person, but the way of many people.

In politics, it is not about making more friends and less enemies. In He Xi's opinion, Feng Sheng is not yet an enemy. It's always hard to make the relationship a mortal enemy.

He Xi hurriedly got up and said, "Guogong, don't be impatient, don't be impatient, let me speak slowly." ”

Feng Sheng was unceremoniously, picked up the tea bowl, and said, "Say it." ”

In an instant, He Xi suddenly understood Feng Sheng's intention to come over this time, the previous ones were all fake. That's true. It's nothing more than relying on the old and selling the old, so that He Xi can choose, or break with the surname Feng and have a good fight. Or, just give me a way and give me a clear statement on the Northern Expedition. Naturally, there will be some concessions.

He Xi secretly said in his heart: "It's really soft and hard." ”

He Xi also had to admit that he had to eat this set.

It's not that He Xi was afraid of Feng Sheng. It's a small ninja who is plotting big, and he has a huge plan in his heart. Feng Sheng and the strength behind Feng Sheng are what He Xi needs to fight for. Naturally, it is impossible not to express something.

He Xi said: "Guogong, the imperial court's policy has always been to seal the territory of the domain, and this territory is both overseas and outside the territory. What I mean is clear. Now in the Yuan Court, the cavalry is only 100,000, and it is no longer the overlord of the outside world. There are tile thorns in the west, Tatars in the east, and as for Uliangha and so on, the group of heroes rose together, and the Yuan court was only the nominal suzerain. ”

"That's why it's time to make a decision." Feng Sheng said: "Destroy the Yuan Court, and divide and conquer the rest." Not for the Central Plains. ”

He Xi said: "It's just that it's not for the time being. Future? No matter how much it is divided and ruled, there will eventually be a male lord on the grassland. Therefore, in addition to the feudal domain, a large number of people must accompany and settle down. Establishment of a state outside Cyprus. So what I want is not tens of thousands of cavalry, running thousands of miles, but millions of people, rooted in the grassland. ”

"The Yuan Court is not a problem at all."

Feng Sheng nodded and said; "Good idea. In this way, when the old man dies. This battle hasn't started yet, has it? That's it. I went back. Hello for yourself. ”

He Xi naturally sensed the tone in Feng Sheng's words, and hurriedly grabbed Feng Sheng and said, "Guogong listens to me." This is a grand strategy, how can I be a junior who can preside over it. Naturally, it is the national government that presides over the overall situation. It's just that today's war has not been extinguished, and the north cannot start a war lightly. ”

When He Xi said this, Feng Sheng suddenly "snorted".

He Xi immediately changed his words and said: "But, as Guogong said, it is naturally not okay to make a big move. Small-scale military operations, but they are possible. With the idea of the little nephew, he could send tens of thousands of teachers to go north along the Songhua River step by step. Shallow attack and construction are OK. ”

Feng Sheng pondered for a moment and said, "Is this method feasible?" ”

Feng Sheng's anger was naturally fake. He actually knew that He Xi immediately changed direction and supported the Northern Expedition. It's impossible. But he had to get things done, and he hadn't thought about it before, fighting Goryeo and Japan. I've fought Japan, maybe there's something else.

At the very least, He Xi should support and put the Northern Expedition on the agenda.

No longer delay.

He Xi proposed this method, which made Feng Sheng fall into deep thought. Because the offensive method He Xi thought of was completely different from Feng Sheng's previous strategy. What Feng Sheng thought was that the cavalry would travel thousands of miles and chase the dead to the north. Let's have a big battle.

And what He Xi thinks is that the sun is arching. Bring the Northeast Plain under the effective rule of the Ming Dynasty.

However, Feng Sheng also saw the problem with this plan.

The first is that it is very expensive. This kind of play can be compared to Feng Sheng's dispatch of 100,000 troops, and it will cost a lot to attack the Yuan Court.

Then there is the fact that it will take a long time. There will be a long-term burden.

Finally, there is the population.

People are the root of everything. There is a shortage of people throughout the North. There are not enough people to fill the Northeast Plain, and everything He Xi has done cannot be maintained. Moreover, the Northeast was really a bitter cold place in ancient times, even if it was placed in the world, because of the geographical currents, it was also a particularly cold place.

It's like the extreme weather during the Battle of Changjin Lake, and in many places in the inland of the Northeast, it's not worse than Changjin Lake.

Even in later generations, the population of Northeast China still had a tendency to migrate to Kannai. In this day and age, with poor heating conditions, this is simply not a place for people to stay.

He Xi said: "Yes, the water and soil in the Northeast are bitter cold. But in the summer and autumn season, there are about 100 days without frost, which is enough for one season. There is only a place in the world where we can produce food, and we Han people can live. What's more, the rivers have been opened, from Liaodong to the Songhua River and the Heishui River. All the way is smooth. The waterways are light. Immigration is extremely convenient. The only problem is that the north is sparsely populated. It doesn't matter, though. This is a long-term solution, cowpox has been promoted in the world for several years, according to the 20-year generation, more than ten years later, the available population of the imperial court will be much more. In this way, in just thirty or fifty years, the Northeast has become an inseparable part of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Feng Sheng shook his head secretly in his heart, he didn't approve of He Xi's plan.

The reason is simple.

The plan is too long.

A lot of times, people think they can decide what will happen in a few decades, but in reality they don't, and sometimes, they can't even decide what will happen in a few years. There is never a sense of change in planning. If it is said that according to He Xi's plan, a few castles will be built and some guards will be built. Step by step, it marched to the inland of the northeast.

Feng Sheng felt that it was possible.

It's nothing more than the Liaodong Metropolitan Division taking care of some more health centers.

But He Xi's kind of inclusion of the Northeast under the actual jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty will take decades to complete. It's a dream. 、

However, Feng Sheng did not point this out. On the one hand, young people have some ideals, which is not a bad thing, and when they hit a wall in the future, they will know that they are good or bad. Another reason is that the relationship between Feng Sheng and He Xi has not yet reached the point of pointing out the other party's mistakes.

Feng Sheng only needs to get what he wants.

What does Feng Sheng want?

The Northern Expedition, the Northern Expedition on his own initiative.

As for how to fight? It doesn't matter.

Because, the generals are not subject to military orders abroad, and military orders are still not subject to them, not to mention, just a little bit of He Xi's thoughts. As long as the war starts, the army is in the hands of someone in his Feng. How to fight, just according to his Feng someone's idea.

As long as he can win the battle, even His Majesty has nothing to say. He Xi's thoughts are not important at all, but He Xi's concession is very important.

Feng Sheng said: "Okay. Sure enough, the Yangtze River pushed forward later. I'm old, and the world is yours. ”
