Chapter 167 The grand rules of the founding of the country, drawn on the security
The Ming Dynasty sent Tan Lun, the secretary of the military department, to Daningwei, nominally as a reward, but in fact to inspect the military merits, which is the work of the imperial historians.
"Who took the imperial historians to check the first-level merit?" Tan Lun looked at Liang Menglong, Liu Yingjie, Ma Fang, Ma Gui, Yang Wen, Chen Dacheng and others, and asked with some doubts, the heads and brains of the Jingying and Jizhou army are on his side, and he wants to go to Taotu Mountain to check the reserves of bentonite, and everyone is there, so who is receiving Yushi?
"Li Rusong." Ma Fang kept her face as serious as possible.
When the Beijing camp selected the generals, Li Rusong said that the generals of the Beijing division were subject to the civil officials like slaves, he was not happy to stay, and wanted to return to Liaodong, after being taught a lesson by Qi Jiguang, he was beaten hard by Tan Lun, and Li Rusong's arrogance was slightly restrained.
It's like boiling an eagle, Li Rusong is the eagle, the more he doesn't like civilian officials, the more Qi Jiguang sends him to contact, to a large extent, the biggest enemy of the Ming generals and the Ming army is not Beiyu Dongyi, but the people behind it.
Qi Jiguang has high hopes for Li Rusong, so when cultivating him, he spares no effort, only contact can he understand, can he skillfully deal with their mouth, and also know the horror of their mouth.
"Okay." When Tan Lun heard this, he showed a smile, Tan Lun is also one of the eagles, which can bring out Li Rusong, an unruly eagle, and he can be regarded as a successor.
Qi Jiguang took Tan Lun to Taotu Mountain, this is a mountain, the amount of bleached soil in the Ming Dynasty is indeed very large, but for a mountain, it is very small.
This is also the key to the Seven Camps Fort outside Daning Weiwai.
"There are a total of three camps and forts from the north of Taotu Mountain, not Xinglong Fort, Qingshan Fort and Xingshu Fort, these three camps and forts are all west of the Laoha River, the time of the Beiyu attack is very certain, all in the autumn, the Laoha River is fast and fierce in autumn, it is not easy to cross the river, these three camps and forts, hearing the news of the captives, can resist the enemy and light the wolf smoke, and Daningwei can attack to intercept the enemy." Standing on the top of Taotu Mountain, Qi Jiguang introduced the deployment of Daning Wei.
Xinglong Fort is surrounded by mountains on three sides, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack the place, so it only needs less than five miles of city wall, it can be garrisoned, from Xinglong Fort to the north, it is Apricot Tree Fort, because there is an apricot forest growing here, so it is named, and the North Captives come from the east side, and will hit the Apricot Tree Fort head-on.
Qinglong Fort is on the north side of Yuanbao Mountain, it is the most frontline, it is also a mountain pass, two camp forts, occupy the main road of transportation, any enemy who wants to attack Daningwei must break through Xingshu Fort and Qinglong Fort.
After getting out of Xingshu Fort and Qinglong Fort, the terrain began to become flat, and it belonged to the place of Quanningwei, which was also the area under the direct control of Hu Lu now.
And breaking through a camp fort, for the Ming Dynasty with artillery, all need to be reduced by one force, and it is even more difficult for the northern captives.
These two camps and forts are a kind of irregular bunkers, which are the first weapons of Qi Jiguang to defend the city in Jizhen, and they are hollow enemy platforms.
The enemy platform needs to protrude outwards outside the side wall about four or five feet, protrude inward about five feet inside the side wall, the hollow enemy platform is three layers in the void, the middle layer is equipped with artillery, lookout windows, arrow windows, etc., the design of the bunker outside the city is the experience and summary of the long-term battle with the northern captives.
With this kind of irregular bunker, if you want to capture one, you need to pay great casualties.
"He who is good at attacking, the enemy does not know what he is defending; Good defenders, the enemy does not know what they are attacking, attack and defense is the spear and shield of war, only can flexibly deal with this contradiction, in order to calm down and resist the enemy, can be called a good fighter, obviously Qi Shuai is a good fighter. Tan Lun listened to Qi Jiguang's arrangement and said sincerely.
According to Qi Jiguang's arrangement, it cannot be said that Daning Wei is impregnable, it can only be said that it is indestructible.
Tan Lun is not a literati and ink writer, he personally holds a knife and has worked hard with the Japanese for more than ten years, standing in the perspective of the northern captives, attacking Qi Jiguang's defense area, it is better to run directly to find Altan Khan to come desperately.
Liang Menglong took Qi Jiguang's words and continued: "At present, Daningwei has more than 11,000 acres of land, more than 20,000 hectares of forest farms, and 8,000 hectares of pastures. ”
According to the calculation of five people in a household, it is about 150,000 people.
The reason why Liang Meng wants to say these things is actually to tell the court that guarding this place is not as expensive and costly as he thought, and that Daningwei was set up at the beginning of the Hongwu period, which directly filled up 80,000 troops, and these 80,000 troops are 80,000 households.
30,000 troops are more than enough.
As long as there are 30,000 troops nailed here, it will be impossible for the northern captives to invade the border again, and this place is of extremely important strategic significance.
Liang Menglong continued: "If Daning Wei is lost, then Kaiping Xinghe will be lost, and only the eight cities of monoliths will be left. Daning Wei is in, then the North Captives cannot go south, Daning Wei is not there, then the North Captives can break through any point of the Ming Dynasty from the long Great Wall, the Ming Dynasty hoards heavy troops, but takes care of one and the other, and the Daning Wei is in, and the North Captives are not allowed to enter Gyeonggi, this is the grand rules of the country, and the security is drawn above. ”
After Liang Menglong finished speaking, he looked at Tan Lun, Tan Lun has always advocated Fuhetao and Daningwei, and now Daningwei has been captured by the Ming army.
"What is the public opinion of the wind power in the court?" Qi Jiguang asked with a solemn face.
"It's still the same, the long-winded ones don't have a straight word, it's not them who fight, it's not them who fight on the border, it's not them who are held accountable, they can naturally nag, have you seen the twelve imperial histories? It was sent by His Majesty, according to His Majesty's meaning, it is a slippery beast on the outer road. Tan Lun talked about the wind power in the middle of the court, and a smile appeared on his face.
"You can't do that." Qi Jiguang also laughed when he heard this, and when dealing with civil officials, the most important thing is that he must not fall for civilian officials.
Take these twelve imperial histories as an example, they are disgusting, they must not be in any danger, otherwise, the Ming Jingying and Liaodong soldiers will immediately fall into a trap of self-respect and the danger of the town, and then it is difficult to extricate themselves from this trap.
Qi Jiguang won't do anything to them, they can't eat and drink well, they like to watch what they want.
Tan Lun, as the secretary of the military department and the great Sima of the Ming Dynasty, came to Daningwei in person, of course, Tan Lun himself was bored in Beijing and wanted to come out to breathe, and he also took the imperial history with him, looking at the imperial history to prevent them from making false accusations, false accusations are equivalent to hurting people with sharp weapons, and they will be punished.
There is a deeper meaning, this Beijing camp that can fight well, whether it is the Beijing camp of the Ming Dynasty or Qi Jiguang's Beijing camp, this is very, very important, for the imperial court, and for Qi Jiguang.
His Majesty didn't doubt Qi Jiguang at all, but the courtiers in the court were a little afraid.
Qi Jiguang is too capable of fighting.
Tan Lun looked at Qi Jiguang and the others, thought about it very solemnly for a long time, and said after thinking about it again: "Your Majesty's treatment of the Kedao Yan official is becoming more and more severe. ”
"At the beginning, when Jia San approached them, His Majesty patiently explained, but later Jia San was nearly out of power, and His Majesty directly dismissed him and made him not sign official business; Later, in the case of Lu Guangzu's seizure, His Majesty directly beat the official court staff on false accusations; And now Fu Yingzhen, Liu Tai, Yu Maoxue and others are in prison, His Majesty directly opened the public trial of the Imperial Palace, Liu Tai Yu Maoxue was beheaded, Fu Yingzhen escaped and went home. ”
"In the face of the sophistry of the courtiers, His Majesty has found a way to deal with it, the first is the one who does it, the practice is real, not based on the truth, it is also hypocritical, for example, a man is a man, a woman is a woman, some of the singers in recent times, feminine and ghostly, women, women, makeup is especially better than prostitution, can not distinguish between men and women, the decline of customs, has become a trend."
"Can a man still be a woman? The words that these officials say all day long are hypocrisy, and behind them is just profit. ”
"The second method Your Majesty has found is a sharp blade, and sometimes, a sharp blade can make things easier."
"And the Beijing camp led by Qi Shuai is a sharp blade in the hands of His Majesty."
Tan Lun has dealt too much with the generals, and even his own political spectrum is more like a military general than a civilian official, so he knows that he must make his words clear, not twisted and rounded, specious, once the army understands wrong, then Tan Lun will be to blame.
"What Your Majesty is referring to is the place where the capital camp has been broken." Qi Jiguang was very calm, as if he was expounding a natural fact.
Qi Jiguang's vermilion imperial party, the political spectrum of the Zhang Party and the Zhejiang Party on his body is fading.
Ma Fang breathed a sigh of relief, he stopped Qi Jiguang's idea of continuing to go north, in fact, he was more worried, once the public opinion of the wind force in the DPRK really formed a decision, and finally led to this outburst operation, it was the last swan song of the Daming Jingying, so how did Ma Fang face the soldiers of the Beijing camp?
Now he is not worried, the little emperor has punched hard in the court, and even cut two of the officials, which is a good signal.
Ma Fang has a strange and reasonable set of standards, he observes the reversal of public opinion in the DPRK, it depends on whether the civil officials, especially these powerful people, will be unlucky, if these powerful people are unlucky, then the emperor has to hold the knife, and the Beijing camp will inevitably continue to attack.
As for the negotiation of peace and tribute, Ma Fang has been in battle for a long time, and he doesn't think it can be done at all.
War is a thing, either side can only decide the beginning of the war, but not the end of the war, to put it more simply, the Ming and the barbarians have not fought enough, and then they will fight.
Qi Jiguang and Tan Lun chatted for a long time before returning to the Daning Acropolis, after Ma Fang and the others left, Qi Jiguang took out a letter from his arms, this letter, Qi Jiguang did not show anyone it, it was His Majesty's secret decree.
said that it was a secret decree, and there was Zhang Juzheng's book on it, apparently Yuanfu knew it.
"Wow!" After reading the letter, Tan Lun looked at Qi Jiguang's frowns, looked up and down for a long time, and then asked with a little suspicion: "Qi Shuai's surname is Zhu?" ”
"Why is Da Sima talking so nonsense!" Qi Jiguang was not happy when he heard this, and immediately retorted.
"You are in Daningwei, you have more power than King Ning at the beginning, and you still say that your surname is not Zhu." Tan Lun pointed to the four words of cheapness, nodded vigorously and said: "At the beginning, King Ning was in the big town of Ning, and he was stuffed in ninety cities, with 80,000 armor and 6,000 leather cars, how majestic? If you make a slight move, you have to send a book back to Beijing to ask Emperor Taizu. ”
"Huh?" Qi Jiguang frowned and looked at Tan Lun and asked, "His Royal Highness King Ning was in Daningwei at the beginning, couldn't he act conveniently?" ”
Tan Lun slapped the table and said with a smile: "Back then, the 80,000 soldiers of Daning Wei belonged to the Daning Division, and it was not under the management of King Ning's mansion, and the soldiers and horses that King Ning could mobilize were only 200 Tielin Army, and now Qi Shuai's elite soldiers are 30,000, and the Beijing Division is 500 miles away. ”
"Nonsense." Qi Jiguang laughed, and Tan Lun also laughed.
Tan Lun's words are actually repeating some unobtrusive remarks, which is a typical thing that can only be said without joining the army, the Ming Dynasty is not without a feudal town, the Northwest Jin Party, the Northeast Li Chengliang, the Southwest Qianguo Mansion, and the Southeast Yin Zhengmao.
If Qi Jiguang really rebelled from Daningwei, he was cut off by Ma Fang, Ma Gui and others before he led his troops south.
Here, it is necessary to mention the beginning.
Qi Jiguang sent a list of selected generals, on this list, the deputy chief soldier is Ma Fang, and the generals Ma Gui, Ma Jin, Li Rusong, and Yang Wen are all there, at that time, Zhu Yijun asked Qi Jiguang if he wanted to operate in a black box and replace Ma Fang, Ma Gui, Ma Jin and others, Qi Jiguang's answer was no.
Since that time, His Majesty the Emperor has shown a high degree of trust in Qi Jiguang, and it is also from the beginning of the selection of military generals that he has decided on the Beijing camp, which has never been Qi Jiguang's word, so, from the point of view of affairs, the Beijing camp has no conditions to rebel, and it can unite as one in the face of the northern captives, what if the gun is turned at the emperor?
This is not a technique of checks and balances, Zhu Yijun never believed in that set, when selecting military generals, he was afraid that the Jin Party would be tied, and the emperor would have to operate in a black box, Qi Jiguang refused to agree before giving up, and now he directly gave Qi Jiguang a secret decree to act cheaply, which is a typical employment without suspicion and suspicion.
More than 10,000 people in the entire Beijing camp, people eat horses and chew, all need grain and grass, Daning Wei hoarded grain and grass but only ten days needed, all from the rear a steady stream of arrival, Beijing camp is the capital camp of the Ming Dynasty, not Qi Jiguang's Beijing camp alone, once an army, financial independence, will be the same as the power of the tycoon, have their own political demands, this is a very dangerous thing, from the logistics point of view, the Beijing camp is born without the conditions for rebellion.
When the emperor asked for advice, Qi Jiguang resolutely opposed the abolition of the military garrison, because he clearly knew that it was impossible to complete the heavy task of the resurgence of the Ming Dynasty by only recruiting troops and guest soldiers.
The source of recruiting soldiers and guest soldiers is divided into two kinds, one is the landless tenants, the ruffians who have fallen to the ground, and the other is the soldiers of the military garrison, and the Beijing camp belongs to the latter.
Those who have constant production have perseverance, and the soldiers from the Ming Army should have been called Liangjiazi in the past.
In terms of the basic composition of the army, in terms of soldiers, it does not have the conditions for rebellion.
The Northwest Jin Party showed the essence of a feudal town, that is, the interests of the feudal town were higher than the dynasty and the Ming collective, and when the interests of the feudal town conflicted with the collective interests of the Ming Dynasty, the feudal town would definitely choose to resist by any means.
The emergence of the Jin Party is a concrete embodiment of the weakness of the Ming Dynasty; Moreover, the Jin Party continues to grow, which is a concrete embodiment of the continued weakening of the Ming Dynasty. The conquest of ceremonies and the punishment of celebrations and rewards from the princes are the concrete manifestations of the imperial court's inability to control the place, and the loss of cohesion and prestige.
And Jingying, on the political spectrum, does not have the attributes of a feudal town.
The Ming Dynasty raised 3,000 guest soldiers in Luzon, Lin Afeng and 6,000 Haikou soldiers, Yin Zhengmao and others were highly financially independent, and still had a deferential heart to the imperial court. Li Chengliang raised 3,000 guest soldiers, and today, when the imperial court camp is becoming stronger and stronger, Li Chengliang has all the conditions of the feudal town, but he still stagnates and chooses to believe in His Majesty the Emperor.
Even the Northwest Clan, which has formed a feudal town, Wang Chonggu has become a powerful chief priest, trying to get rid of his feudal attributes.
"Your Majesty has grown up slowly, and after the class next year, you should merge the afternoon martial arts practice time into a review, and turn it into a daily parade of military horses, instead of a review, so that some courtiers can also dispel their doubts." Qi Jiguang put forward his opinion to Tan Lun.
His Majesty is young, so it is a reading, not a reading.
"Qi Shuai has suffered a loss for so many years, do you still have to suffer this loss?" Tan Lun said something inexplicable.
"Didn't Da Sima also suffer losses for so many years, and he didn't have a long memory? I believe in Your Majesty as Your Majesty believes in me. Qi Jiguang nodded at the four words on the secret edict, and smiled very cheerfully.
has been in the army for so many years, since the first year of Wanli to lead the Beijing camp, it is the easiest three years for Qi Jiguang, a general, just need to study how to win the enemy, this is a beautiful thing?
Tan Lun said that he suffered a loss, it is not difficult to understand, Hu Zongxian died, but the Northwest Jin Party became a behemoth by virtue of his tribute, entrenched in the court, if Hu Zongxian had played the trick of raising his own respect, Yan Song died, Hu Zongxian would not have any, and Xu Jie had to slap Hu Zongxian.
At that time, the court situation was so sparse, and it was completely different from the court pattern at this time.
Being a gentleman is a tiring thing.
"I've sent a messenger, and the Native Khan should be willing to have someone come and talk." Qi Jiguang said with a fierce look in his eyes: "However, the conditions proposed by the barbarian Khan, I am afraid that it will be difficult for Daming to agree." ”
Tan Lun shook his head and said: "It was originally a gesture to make Altan Khan have points in his heart, and the wool is not sold by his family." ”
"It's okay, fight until the brute sweats." Qi Jiguang is very confident in this matter, and destroying the enemy's will to resist and making the enemy completely surrender to his will is what Qi Jiguang is best at.
At this time, Daningwei was still the front line of the grass and trees, and the scouts had a fierce confrontation on the vast snowfield, fighting for key passes, ferries and bridges, and finally after a heavy snowfall, everyone was quiet, the snow was so great that even the rats of the grassland no longer haunted.
And the Tuman Khan, at the beginning of December, sent his conditions.
First, never be crowned king, crowning the king is surrender, Altan Khan is a traitor to the Central Plains in the grassland, and it is a shame for the immortal world, so for the conditions of the imperial court to be crowned king, the Tuman Khan said that it is absolutely impossible.
"Does Altan Khan have such a bad reputation in the steppe?" Qi Jiguang looked at this first article, stunned for a long time, in this first condition, all of them scolded Altan Khan for surrendering, in the perspective of the Ming Dynasty, Altan Khan fought with the Ming Dynasty for so many years, and finally achieved the strategic goal, the king and the tribute.
But in the steppe, it doesn't seem to be the case.
"Yes, otherwise it wouldn't be the third lady who came out to take power, and pushed all the dealings with Daming on the head of the third lady." Tan Lun shook his head and said: "Altan Khan was canonized by the imperial court and is regarded as Altan Khan, a betrayal of the Golden Family. ”
In Altan Khan's narrative, the guilt of Altan Khan's tribute from the beginning is the woman Sanniangzi.
There was a key figure in Altan Khan's tribute, the grandson of Altan Khan, who put Hannaji.
Altan Khan attacked the Warat Department and forcibly married the three ladies, and the Wanhu of the Ordos Department said that the three ladies had a marriage contract with themselves, and asked Altan Khan to return the three ladies, but Altan Khan was reluctant to give his grandson Hannaji's daughter-in-law to Ordos Wanhu.
Of course, Hannaji was not happy, and took his daughter-in-law to the Ming Dynasty, and for the sake of this grandson, Altan Khan had to agree to the conditions of the imperial court.
It's all the three ladies, this woman has brought disaster to the country and the people!
In fact, everyone knows that they are all tired and can't move, and no one can help anyone, just find a chance to meet and give each other a step.
The world is almost the same, the Central Plains likes to blame Bao Xi, Daji, and Yang Guifei, and the same is true for the grassland, which is the fault of the three ladies.
Qi Jiguang looked at the second condition, Daming unconditionally withdrew from Daningwei, returned this place that belonged to the grassland to the grassland, the grassland returned to the grassland, and the Central Plains returned to the Central Plains, without intruding on each other.
"If you have the ability, come and get it, I'm here, not convinced? What's the use of not being able to call, it's snowing this year, and coming back next year. Qi Jiguang sneered, it is indeed a disadvantage to fight low and high, but Qi Jiguang won, and winning is winning.
This Daningwei is the land of the Ming Dynasty, and in the Jingtai period, the Ming Dynasty is still stationed here, and the three guards of Wuliangha cannot enter the range of 200 miles of Daningwei.
The third article is to exchange markets, refuse to accept the canonization of the Ming court, and trade with the Ming Dynasty, and also formulate some regulations in detail, which looks good.
Tributary trade is the law of the ancestors, even now, even the trade of the Franc machine people of Taixi is also in the name of the tributary state of Luzon, in the trade division, the Franc machine people effectively occupy the island of Mindanao in Luzon, and trade with the Ming Dynasty in the name of Luzon.
It is also impossible to agree to this third article.
"What does this mean?" Qi Jiguang pointed to the fourth paragraph and asked a little puzzled.
Tan Lun glanced at it, blinked and said: "That's what you see, the New Year's coin, every year, the Ming Dynasty gives 500,000 taels of silk and silver to the Tuman, as the cost of helping the army, and it will be delivered to the Fumin Post outside Xifengkou." ”
"Didn't Tuman Khan wake up? Or did I, Qi Jiguang, lose the battle? Now it's me riding on his head! After reading the book of alliance in his hand, Qi Jiguang was a little stupid, where did the barbarian Khan get the confidence to mention such conditions.
Right now! It was he Qi Jiguang who was out of the fortress and captured Daningwei, and the Tuman Khan who fought couldn't raise his head, so he could only shrink to Quanningwei, and the Tuman Khan took another step back, and then retreated to the west side of Daxianbei Mountain, withdrew from Liaodong, and retreated to Yingchang!
Tan Lun picked up the book of the alliance and said in amazement: "Fifth, he also wants to make an appointment with His Majesty about the country of his uncle and nephew, His Majesty is young, and he wants to call Tuman Khan his uncle, and future generations will still use this theory, Tuman Khan's courage is not ordinary, Yuan Fu does not dare to let His Majesty call him a middle father, and Tuman Khan wants His Majesty to call him uncle." ”
"Tut-tut."
Qi Jiguang said with a frosty face: "Then you can only kill him." ”
"The battle between the Tuman Khan and Altan Khan on the steppe does not allow the Tuman Khan to say any weak words, so I say so, this letter of alliance is just a statement of a tough position, to calm the people's hearts, this is not said to us, but to the Tuban Khan to their own people, just fight back." Tan Lun looked at the book and shook his head and said.
After listening to Tan Lun, Qi Jiguang also nodded and expressed his approval of Tan Lun, which did not mean that he recognized the alliance book, he said in a cold tone: "Reasonable, throw the messenger out and let them reformulate a letter of alliance, otherwise there is no need to talk about it, this letter of alliance and sent to the Beijing division is the shame of our Beijing camp." ”
Qi Jiguang was very angry, the supreme Ming Emperor actually wanted to be a nephew, and when he couldn't beat Altan Khan, he didn't have such a shame.
Tan Lun's judgment is extremely correct, the Tuman Khan must be so tough, otherwise the speed of the Khalkha Fifth Department should make trouble.
Qi Jiguang stripped off the envoy of Tuman Khan, threw it directly out of Qinglong Castle, and sent the alliance book back, and soon after, Tuman Khan sent a reasonable alliance book.
Will not accept the canonization of the imperial court, to the north side of the Yuanbao Mountain Qinglong Fort and Xingshu Fort as the boundary to determine the boundaries of each other, the imperial court in the Qinglong Fort to set up a mutual market, no longer ask for the cost of military assistance, but require the annual purchase of horses 4,000, the purchase of 8,000 bags of wool, a bag of wool about 120 catties, the price can not be lower than the Altan Khan purchase price, about the country of brothers, the old man Khan is a brother.
Qi Jiguang stripped the envoy naked again and threw it out of Qinglong Castle, and by the way, asked the envoy to bring back a sentence: Take a pee on yourself, and ask yourself if you are worthy!
Qi Jiguang's statement was particularly tough, he took the secret edict, all the general affairs of Daning Wei were under the jurisdiction of Qi Jiguang, and this kind of alliance was sent to Jingshi, which was his responsibility.
Qi Jiguang's toughness made Tuman Khan a little helpless, Qi Jiguang stood in the perspective of strength, so tough, what can Tuman Khan do? I had to revise the alliance again, delete the envoy who could not be lower than the purchase price of Altan Khan and the brotherly country, the barbarian Khan, and successfully passed the Daningwei.
When the envoy of the Tuman Khan left Daningwei, it was also the time when Zhou Liangyin and other twelve imperial historians went to Liaodong.
Zhou Liangyin looked at Tan Lun and asked in surprise, "Isn't Da Sima going to Liaodong?" ”
"I'm just going to Daningwei, you go to Liaodong, I'll go back to Beijing." Tan Lun said as a matter of course.
Zhou Liangyin's imperial history is directly down! They are going to face Li Chengliang's fierce god alone!
I watched a big bustle today, Wagner's big news, continue to pay attention to the follow-up, ask for a monthly ticket, woo!!!!!
