Chapter 111: Emperor Taihe's Arrangement (II)

"Your Majesty, if you only go out to fight with the Eagle Yang Army of the Foreign Mansion, there is still a chance of winning this battle, but the army of the Inner Palace, with all due respect, I am afraid that this battle will not be won. And it is also necessary to consider whether the Yonghe Yingyang Mansion Army can willingly accept the will of the DPRK and China and do their best. ”

Qin Ye and Mei Changqing were silent for a while, and then Mei Changqing solemnly opened his mouth to dissuade him.

The inner government is hawkish, not to mention that it has basically not been in war for decades, although there are drills, there are also transfers such as suppressing bandits in peacetime.

But these are just small fights, enjoying peace for decades, ninety percent of the Yingyang Mansion Army in the Inner Mansion has never seen blood, has not experienced serious fighting, just some 'new pawns' who have been practicing for a long time.

Moreover, the ten battalions of the Yingyang Mansion Army are not affiliated with each other, and there are also the influence of the nobles and families in various places, among which there are many large and small factions, and it is okay to fight privately in peacetime, but once they are forcibly screwed together into an army, it will inevitably make many contradictions further intensified, and they will be scattered.

What's more, this time, there are still the Yingyang Mansion armies from the internal and external provinces that have merged into one army, and there will inevitably be many more contradictions and conflicts.

Coupled with the delicate relationship between the court and the four kings, even if the Yongwang Mansion does not obstruct it, the soldiers of the Yonghe Mansion Army will feel in their hearts, and whether they will work and contribute to the expedition are not controlled.

From the most practical point of view, the candidate for this general is not so easy to finalize.

With the generals of the Yingyang Mansion Army in the Central Government or the Inner Prefecture, if they are sent to the Yonghe Mansion Army to attack the fortifications, they will inevitably be thought to be targeted by the Yonghe Mansion Army, and they will be consumed to send them to death.

Vice versa.

And the soldiers of the Hao Dynasty, in the past few decades, the battle has not stopped, and it cannot be said that all of them are elite, but the veterans of the battlefield, the elite of a hundred battles, at least occupy four to sixty percent of the Hao army.

With such an army that is extremely difficult to unify its thoughts and voices internally, to deal with the army that has been baptized by a hundred battles, there is no hope of victory.

And in this battle, Daqin is invincible and invincible, and even must seek a quick victory, and give the Hao army a painful blow in a sweeping posture in order to have the desired effect.

Once it is a little weak, or it can't be attacked for a long time, then not only the Xuan Dynasty, but also the Rin Dynasty, whether it is the Haixi Dynasty, or the various ethnic groups in Haixi, those who have a little strength will begin to salivate over the fat of Daqin.

The first time it may be to see, the second time is to smell it, but the third and fourth time, after tasting the fragrance, some will not be satisfied, but more unquenchable greed.

Therefore, he very much agrees with the master's practice of being blinded and giving the law army a severe blow head-on.

Recently, the Rin Dynasty, which had already received the report of the visit, was about to move, and then it disappeared, and the conflict and temptation between the two armies of Qin and Rin in the south decreased sharply, and the Rin army even retreated on a large scale.

It all stems from the resoluteness and ruthlessness shown by Meng Wei in this battle outside Zhenbei Pass.

The Beilu Chinese army was broken, and it was not only the Beilu side that was hit and deterred.

What they should do now is to add firewood to this foundation, further consolidate and publicize Daqin's arrogance, and subdue the four provinces.

In this way, we can solve internal problems more calmly.

Instead of dismantling the stage at this time, Daqin has not been appeased internally and external troubles are coming.

However, Mei Changqing still underestimated him, or he couldn't understand Emperor Taihe's self-confidence and arrogance, and he directly set himself on fire, huh...... No, if he doesn't take it, the fire will fall on him.

Otherwise, it would be meaningless for Taihe Emperor to promote him to be the secretary of the military department and summon him here.

Taihe Emperor Yingmin's self-confidence is not only in his belief that he can do everything, but also in his ability to recognize and employ people.

He didn't think he was angry with Mei Changqing's words, but glanced at Mei Changqing with interest, and then said: "Since Mei Qing can see these problems, there must be a way to solve them." The same food and salary, you can't always pay for one person, Mei Qing thinks so. ”

Mei Changqing sighed and smiled bitterly in his heart, but he had to get up and respond, "Your Majesty Shengming." It's just that it's difficult for the minister to have a proper strategy for a while, can you allow the minister a few days to gather the wisdom of the troops, set a good policy, and then play to Your Majesty. ”

"Hmm. You will be granted three days. Emperor Taihe was satisfied with the deduction and gave Mei Changqing three days.

However, Mei Changqing didn't feel any easier.

The application of grain and grass on this expedition, how to march and supply along the way, what is the situation of the Hao Dynasty, where is suitable for sending troops, how many generals should be selected, how to match, whether the army of the four prefectures is fighting separately, it is better to divide the troops into multiple roads, or to gather into one army, how to stop the troops when they get the results, what to do in case of stalemate, and so on......

Big and small things, all kinds of possible situations, only three days to deduce and prepare, how can it be considered too hasty.

However, this is not over, and without waiting for his command, Emperor Taihe said again: "This battle will be led by you, and the remaining auxiliary generals will also be dispatched according to your needs, and all the generals south of Zhongzhou will be unavailable, and twenty will be limited." ”

"In addition, the third army of Zhenbei will bring Qin Yu with you, and I will order him to be assigned to join you in Yonghe. Young people, recklessness is reckless, but this courage is still commendable. You take the sharpening and sharpen it for later. ”

This time, Mei Changqing's heart was a little more relaxed, and he let him go to lead the troops by himself, so he would have the advantage of controlling and regulating many things, and his actions would be much simpler.

It's just that he couldn't help but glance at Qin Ye, Emperor Taihe's words, although he revealed some signs that he might be entrusted with a heavy responsibility to Qin Yu, but just after leaving the north and entering the Western Mansion, he couldn't get out of this whirlpool, and it was difficult to say whether it was a blessing or a curse.

Due to fate, it has always been determined by people, each person chooses differently, and the final result is different, no one can say.

And Qin Ye didn't know what to think in his heart, anyway, the expression on his face was still the same, and he got up and saluted Emperor Taihe first:

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Then he turned to Mei Changqing and bowed, "The dog is immature, and I hope that Mei Shangshu will discipline and teach more, in order to be useful to the country and live up to the grace of the saint." ”

Mei Changqing returned the salute lightly, "My own nephew, Wuyang Hou can rest assured." ”

After the two were polite, Emperor Taihe didn't want to keep the two more, and the two quickly retreated.

Soon after, several wills came out, and when the DPRK and China were in an uproar, many people were thinking about it.

But at the moment, there is no possibility of changing this result.

Without the court's discussion, the two departments of household and rituals, even the three provinces were only quietly notified and the holy order was conveyed, which was in vain.

This is today's Daqin Dynasty Hall, the real Yiyan Hall of Taihe Emperor Yingmin, which is rare in ancient times.

It was night, not to mention how many ministers, they each gathered privately, Wuyang Hou Qinye was also invited by Mei Changqing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and rarely left the house after the next office, and went to Mei Changqing's place for a banquet.

The two are actually old acquaintances, but they haven't had much contact for a long time.

Even if Mei Changqing is now in the position of the secretary of the Ministry of War, the Marquis of Wuyang Mansion has not sent a congratulatory gift, and the sound of Jingzhong thinking that the two have completely parted ways has been noisy for a while.

But this night, as the carriage of Wuyang Hou stopped outside the gate of Mei Changqing's mansion, the latter was waiting outside in person, which made many people stunned at the same time, but also looked calm.

"Brother Qin, you and I will be in the same boat for a while today, and we will really be in the same boat in the future, and we won't be able to get off again."

Mei Changqing greeted Qin Ye and entered the mansion side by side, and couldn't help but smile lightly, but there was no smile in his eyes.

And Qin Ye just said noncommittally: "After coming to this Yongning, you and I will not be able to get off this ship." ”
