He Yi said with a smile: "The minister speculates that the war in Annan is likely to move closer to the origin of the allusion of 'soldiers and noble gods'. ”

Zhu Qiyu said to himself curiously: "The origin of the allusion? After Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao and killed his eldest son Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi fled north and defected to the Wuhuan leader Badun Shan Yu.

From Cao Cao to the soldiers and ministers, they all had no fighting spirit and wanted to retire and go home.

What does Guo Jiafei want to say: The soldiers are expensive and fast, and now they are attacking people for thousands of miles, there are many burdens, it is difficult to be interesting, and when they hear it, they must be prepared. It is better to leave the baggage behind, and the light soldiers to cover up their surprise.

Then Cao Cao was forced by Guo Jia to throw down his baggage, ran thousands of miles, and ran all the way to death when there was no food, no help, and no way out.

It is said that this battle disgusted Cao Cao, and his heart was more bitter than mine. ”

He Yi nodded: "Cao Cao led the army through the barren mountains and mountains, rushed for thousands of miles, fell into a desperate situation several times, and experienced hardships and dangers, but finally succeeded in the first battle and completely destroyed the Yuan clan.

Even after the war, Cao Cao still did not agree with Guo Jia's strategy, and lavishly rewarded the officials who gave advice at that time.

It wasn't until the defeat of Chibi and the remnants of Cao Cao's defeated army that he felt Guo Jiafei's painstaking desire to destroy the Yuan clan and consolidate the north.

Now the mentality of the saint is similar to Cao Cao, and he feels that Jing Yuanbo is too risky. But Zhang Liao broke the formation and cut down, and the combined forces of Wuhuan and Yuan were defeated miserably, and they completely collapsed in the first battle, and they were all defeated. ”

Zhu Qiyu was thoughtful.

He Yi added: "The minister can only say something behind closed doors, but in fact, the combat strength of the Annan army is far worse than that of Luchuan.

Luchuan is a militaristic system, all the people are soldiers, and there are abundant open-pit copper mines and iron mines, so the armor is extremely sophisticated. Annan is a little more people, but in fact, the combat power is far behind.

Jing Yuanbo has been fighting in the south for many years, and he has a very clear grasp of the combat strength of the armies of the southern countries, so he dares to act like this.

The reason why the saint thinks that Annan is very powerful, and the reason why the ministers of the DPRK and China are afraid of Annan, is because the traitors who brought disaster to the country back then were so unbearable that they lost the national prestige and face of the Ming Dynasty. ”

He Yi didn't dare to say Xuanmiao directly, so he could only use Sanyang and other traitors to the country as a cover, but Zhu Qiyu understood everything.

Zhu Qiyu was convinced, Wang Ji, who fought Tatar in the north and Luchuan in the south, won battles wherever he went, and was indeed very powerful.

"If we defeat the main force of Annan in three or four months, Taizong will fight for seven months. When the time comes, my prestige, oops, a little unthinkable. ”

Gao Yao praised on the side: "After the victory, the Holy Lord will reward Jing Yuanbo, Ningyang Hou and others, and the hearts of the people in the DPRK will become more stable." At that time, the monarch and the minister will be harmonious, and the Ming Dynasty will have a new atmosphere. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded, this is a good word, even Gong let the emperor's most relied on commanders Wang Ji and Chen Mao be reused and rewarded, and the other Gong let the emperor's cronies not have to worry about being liquidated.

Of course, the premise is that you have to fight well and make meritorious contributions.

Zhu Qiyu asked the last question: "If Wang Ji chooses to surprise and attack, will the armies of those vassal states and Xuanwei Division be able to fight against him?" ”

He Yi replied: "Surely, didn't the Holy Lord have already negotiated with the envoys of Zhancheng, Lancang and other countries." Especially in the Champa state, their previous king is still being held captive in Annam.

Such a shame and humiliation, people are much more anxious than us.

Not to mention those Xuanfu officials, Jing Yuanbo's prestige among the southern barbarians is far beyond imagination.

If someone else is replaced as the commander-in-chief, he may not be able to command those barbarians. But Uncle Jing Yuan, they are almost afraid of gods. ”

"Okay, then I'll wait for the victory of Jing Yuanbo's army.

Cao Cao's soldiers are fast and unify the north, and I am also fast and unified the south.

When the time comes, Jingyuanbo will be sealed in the hometown of Luchuan, and we will go to mine copper ore in peace and stability, and carry out nationwide currency conversion. ”

After the discussion, Zhu Qiyu was not worried.

After instructing General He Yi to send the report to the military headquarters, Zhu Qiyu went home happily.

As soon as he entered the Hehuan Palace, Lin Xiangyu greeted him. Zhu Qiyu hugged the beauty horizontally and got on the soft couch with a smile.

Lin Xiangyu asked curiously, "Why was my husband so worried when he went out, but he was so happy when he came back?" He Yi loves to fool around, what kind of ecstasy soup did he pour you? ”

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "What else can you fool, but the outnumbered people have ten victories, and the emperor has ten defeats." Where did they go? ”

"Xue'er and Xi'er went to deal with the affairs of the palace, Ning Xiang saw that you were ridden hundreds of times, but she was distressed, she pulled Linglong to stew ginseng soup for you."

Zhu Qiyu teased: "She wants me to eat and drink enough, so that I can be ridden again." ”

"You can know it yourself, but don't say it so directly. Regret it, Xiaofujun, as soon as this daughter becomes a slave, she will never have the light of day. ”

Zhu Qiyu pretended to be stubborn: "The widow is willing to eat and enjoy it." Zifei fish, the joy of Anzhi fish. ”

Lin Xiangyu replied: "What the husband said is unreasonable, the slave family is ridden as a horse every day, why don't you know the joy of fish." ”

Zhu Qiyu was speechless, so he practiced Lao Tzu's teachings and began to roll up his sleeves and start to do it.

……

And a few more days passed.

On the ninth day of April, Siming Mansion, Guangxi.

The 80,000 Beijing troops under the command of Xu Youzhen and Wang Tong were finally assembled and all stationed on the border.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, the local officials of the two provinces gathered.

Not only that, but there are also many cottage leaders regardless of the region.

Even the traitor Huang Xiaoyang appeared in the Chinese army's big tent.

Previously, Zhu Qiyu sent Wang Ao to serve as the governor of Liangguang, responsible for exterminating Huang Xiaoyang.

This Huang Xiaoyang pretended to be the King of Shuntian, and once led more than 300 thief ships to attack the city of Guangzhou, which can be regarded as a sea thief.

At that time, the Tumubao Incident had just happened, and the imperial court did not have the heart to take care of it.

Later, Wang Ao served as the governor of Liangguang, but he did not destroy it, but made Huang Xiaoyang gradually grow up.

There are quite a few civil servants who are like this, and let them govern the locality, and they can still have some political achievements. But to let them fight is like to take their lives.

When is it, Wang Ao still has to play Kou Zizun, which has touched Zhu Qiyu's bottom line. So Wang Ao was transferred to Nanjing to sit on the cold bench, and Xu Youzhen, who was willing to make contributions, came up.

Xu Youzhen ordered people to invite the leaders of the big and small forces in the Liangguang territory, and clearly promised not to harm each other. Not only will it not harm each other, but it will also give everyone a great opportunity to make contributions.

Huang Xiaoyang doesn't want to be a pirate for the rest of his life, the Ming Dynasty is strong, as long as he is more serious, it will be easy to exterminate himself. So in the case of Xu Youzhen taking the emperor's credit as a guarantee, Huang Xiaoyang still came, although he was apprehensive.

Before Xu Youzhen left Beijing, she pestered Zhu Qiyu and insisted on a handwritten letter to persuade Huang Xiaoyang to surrender. Xu Youzhen wants to take Huang Xiaoyang as an example and play a trick wood Lixin.

Huang Xiaoyang can be let go, so others don't have to worry about being settled by the imperial court.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Xu Youzhen set up an incense case, put the holy decree on it, and said to everyone: "Xu Youzhen, the governor of Liangguang, is the governor of Liangguang under the will of the saint, and has full authority to dispose of all military and political affairs in Liangguang, and lead the troops to recover Annam."

There is a holy purpose for this, and you can take a closer look. The Holy Decree expressly promised that if you are willing to serve in the army, the officer has the right to pardon past crimes.

If you make military achievements, the court will reward you heavily. ”
