Chapter 549 Closed World Line (At the beginning of the month, ask for a monthly pass)
"Men are mixed in the court, although they have their own pursuits, but they can't escape a promotion and salary increase, this promotion is impossible for me to promote, but the salary increase has been obtained, in this case, what is there to be disappointed?" Yang Mansion, Yang Ming lazily said to Meng Tian, who came to visit directly after leaving Xianyang Palace.
"Ninety percent of the people in the court are looking for something that may really be like this, but you are definitely not, you are not among those philistines." Meng Tian looked at Yang Ming and said solemnly.
Meng Tian has a lot of ideas about Yang Ming's current situation, when he was in Xianyang Palace, he was not the only one who was summoned by Qin Wangzheng, but also the general Wang Jian and Feng Quji, who was promoted from the imperial historian to the prime minister of Zuo not long ago, as well as several generals in charge of military power in Qin, discussed the matter of attacking and destroying Chu in the coming year, but in such a military event, there was no Yang Ming, and this matter itself should not be.
"You think highly of me, and that's what I'm after." Yang Ming smiled casually.
"The world is very big, even after the destruction of the Six Kingdoms, there are still many places that need you, whether it is the king or you, it shouldn't be like this." Here in Yang Ming, Meng Tiandao, who didn't know what the taboo was.
"It's over, it's over, the Qin country has a lot of talents, except for the king, everyone who leaves it will run the same way, don't take yourself too seriously, it's very dangerous." Yang Ming waved his hand.
"Let's talk about the attack on Chu, can we negotiate the result?" Yang Ming turned away from the Chinese road, Meng Tian is indeed a sincere person, and the person who can make him say such things is probably only Yang Ming, after all, the two have also been friends for nearly 20 years, and Meng Tian's biggest capital now, the formation of the Golden Fire Cavalry, also relies on Yang Ming, not to mention anything else, among the 13,000 Golden Fire Cavalry, there are 2,000 people who are the former Dragoon Forbidden Army, and the former Dragoon Forbidden Army constitutes the skeleton of the current Golden Fire Cavalry.
"The general thinks that attacking the state of Chu requires an army of 600,000, and the king still has doubts about this." Meng Tian said.
"600,000! Fortunately, no one has come forward and said that I only need 200,000 yuan. Yang Ming smiled, obviously thinking of the joke that he only understood himself.
"How can anyone dare to say that 200,000 troops can take the state of Chu, after all, the state of Chu is a big country second only to the state of Qin, although because it is difficult to unite the feudal monarchs within the state of Chu, so that the performance of the Chu army composed of private armies from all over the country has always been very good, but once we attack, under the crisis of the collapse of the country, the state of Chu can still be united, and the state of Chu with one heart can be regarded as our fierce enemy." Yang Ming's joke was exchanged for a solemn explanation here by Meng Tian.
"It is indeed a strong opponent, and there is no chance to take advantage of it, only to crush the past with the general momentum is the best answer." Yang Ming said.
Now the national strength and military strength of the Qin State have an absolute advantage over the Chu State, and if you want to rely on the behavior of the saucy operation to make a trick, if you are not careful, you will steal the chicken and lose the rice, but now Li Xin has been sent to Longxi, although the official position is not low, but the battle against the Chu State is no longer his business.
"Do you also think that it is necessary to destroy the Chu State with an army of 600,000?" Meng Tian asked.
With an army of 600,000, since the founding of the Qin State, there has never been a war with such a large-scale army, especially if it is far away from the Qin State and conquers the enemy country, and all the military strength of a country is held in the hands of one person, it is probably difficult to reassure people, right?
You must know that even in the Battle of Changping that year, the soldiers and horses dispatched by the Qin State did not exceed this number.
"The general said that it must be an army of 600,000, not because 600,000 is enough, but because 600,000 is the largest force that Qin can mobilize, what he wants is to fight steadily and steadily, and he will not worry about too many troops." Yang Ming said.
"But among the 600,000 troops, you also have one, this time you can lead the army alone, right?" Yang Ming then asked.
Under the 600,000 army, there are more Qin generals, in this war to destroy the Chu State, it can be said that it is the last carnival of the Qin State military merit group, it is difficult to deny that Wang Jian wants to exhaust the military strength of the Qin State in this battle, there is no such consideration.
"Well, as the Eastern Route Army, with the Golden Fire Cavalry as the core, I led 100,000 troops, attacked Ludi from Dongjun and Dangjun, and then went south to attack the land of Dongchu." Meng Tian said.
"100,000 troops, after this battle, you are also a famous general." Yang Ming said.
Leading 100,000 troops can be described as a watershed for the people who lead the troops, the more troops, the greater the pressure on the generals, and 100,000 people are one of the barriers, and the gap between 100,000 is already a qualitative gap.
"This is indeed an opportunity for me, but the pressure is not small, after all, it is a 100,000-strong army, and I have never commanded such a large scale of soldiers and horses before." Meng Tian groaned, with a dignified look on his face, this is a steady person.
"Don't be presumptuous, your ability is definitely more than just 100,000." Yang Ming said.
On the original trajectory, Meng Tian was a fierce man who could command 300,000 troops to chase the Xiongnu north, and his ability, even considering his age, was no problem to control an army of 100,000 at this time.
In the small talk between Yang Ming and Meng Tian, another guest had already come to the Yang family, it was Wei Wei's widow Yun Niang, but as a female dependent, it was Concubine Yan who received Yun Niang, and the startling salamander was responsible for bringing gossip to Yang Ming.
"Yun Niang? Her little guy is still young, so he shouldn't need it now, right? Yang Ming muttered to himself.
Twelve years ago, Yang Ming only got this guy and Yun Niang from Wei Fu and had a ten-year-old illegitimate son, Wei Ming, who was old enough to have a son, was a lot of tricks in front of Yang Ming, of course, it was a miracle, because whether it was Wei Qi or Yun Niang, the age was not young at that time, and before Wei Qi died, Yang Ming also promised to take care of Yun Niang and his son.
As a person who has seen the world, Yun Niang also cherishes Yang Ming's promise very much, knowing that she has never asked Yang Ming for anything, even if she herself is not rich.
But at this time, Yun Niang came to the door, obviously encountering something that could not be bypassed.
"You invited Yun Niang, Concubine Yan shouldn't be able to help her with anything." Yang Ming turned his head sideways and said to the startled salamander.
"Okay." The salamander nodded, then turned to leave.
Not long after, Yun Niang and Concubine Yan appeared in front of Yang Ming and Meng Tian.
"Aunt Yun has encountered something that can't be avoided?" Yang Ming asked straight to the point, when Wei Mu was alive, Yang Ming would not call Yun Niang like this, because even Wei Fu did not get any honorific title from Yang Ming, but after Wei Fu died, Yang Ming was willing to call Yun Niang Aunt Yun instead.
"It's the son of the Wei family, that is, the grandson of the old man, and now he has returned from Taoism and asked me to find a position for him." Seeing that Yang Ming did not mean to be estranged, Yun Niang, who knew that Yang Ming was most disgusted with those hypocrisy, also directly explained her intentions.
"Taishi also knows that before the old guy died, he lured me into the door of their Wei family, and now they ask me to come here, and I can't refuse." Yun Niang explained.
"Taoist disciple, that should be good, Taoism is still very particular about accepting people, not like a farmer, everyone accepts it." Yang Ming said.
Taoist apprentices have the highest requirements for heart and talent, and those who can learn from Taoism can be regarded as talents among ordinary people.
"You must still be short of a pro-soldier there, right? You might as well take him with you and see where it can be used in the future. Yang Ming said to Meng Tian.
"Taoist apprentice, when a pro-soldier is subservient, is this grandson of Wei's predecessor willing?" Meng Tian asked Yun Niang, Yun Niang he also knew, but he just knew.
"Being able to be a personal soldier by General Meng's side, such an opportunity cannot be asked for by many people, and how can there be any condescension." Yun Niang smiled.
The general's pro-soldier is the easiest to get ahead, not to mention anything else, just the opportunity to break into the inner circle, which is difficult for ordinary people to get in their lifetime, as long as they mix well in the position of the pro-soldier, the future will be there, officialdom, in the final analysis, is still a big net formed between people, only by breaking into it can you get more opportunities.
It's just that time flies really fast, and the young man back then is now the Taishi of the Qin State, and he can already decide a person's fate in a word. Yun Niang thought in her heart, while she was happy that Yang Ming had today's achievements, she also had a sadness about the rush of time, although the old man liked memories the most, he was also the most afraid of memories.
"Then it's settled." Yang Ming said.
"Of course, when the master speaks, do I dare not listen?" Meng Tian was also joking.
After leaving Meng Tian and Yun Niang to have dinner, Yang Ming sent the two out of the house, and in the cool evening breeze, Yang Ming and Concubine Yan strolled by the pond in the backyard.
"If you don't go to rest, I'm afraid some people can't wait, right?" Concubine Yan stroked her long hair that was blown by the evening breeze and teased Yang Ming.
Before getting married, Concubine Yan was only worried that Yang Ming was not good enough, but after getting married, Concubine Yan found that it was also a problem that her husband was too good, but now this family is too big?
"Aren't you waiting for me?" Yang Ming said with his support to Concubine Yan's waist, which was not too obvious.
"Now?" Concubine Yan held Yang Ming's palm on her waist and said, the meaning was already self-evident.
"Wouldn't it be nice to sleep together and wake up together? Do you have to do those things? I didn't expect my sister to have such thoughts. Yang Ming joked.
"You ......" Concubine Yan's face puffed up instantly, what kind of words are these, but after all, it was she who lost her words first, and then Yang Ming grabbed the handle, but she was helpless.
"By the way, Aunt Yun has a granddaughter." Concubine Yan said.
"So what?" Yang Ming asked.
"So I wonder if it is better to include her granddaughter in the Yin-Yang family, and the woman should enter the Yin-Yang family." Concubine Yan said.
"You look at it, I can't control the Yin and Yang family." Yang Ming said.
