Shouyang Maharaja Li Yao is also a heroic figure, and when he sees the opportunity, he has to fight with the great tomorrow, and he also speaks eloquently:

"It is impossible for the main elite of the Ming Dynasty to come, you only know that we can't afford to lose, but you don't know that the Great Tomorrow can't afford to lose.

Annam, Burma, Siam, Chenla, and Lancang in the south, Warat, Usizang, and Chagatai in the west, Tatar in the north, and even Japan in the southeast have declared war.

Within the Ming Dynasty, there are still Miao Rebellion, Yao Rebellion and provincial uprisings, as well as King Yi waiting for restoration, and the crown prince waiting to succeed to the throne. There are still many people in the government and the opposition, civil ministers and military generals, who are unwilling to be loyal to today.

I went to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and I was secretly wooed by some ministers.

Between Seoul and Beijing, there are more than 2,000 miles apart, and the big tomorrow will go crazy and send all the main elites over regardless of other directions.

At such a distance, even if the Great Tomorrow goes crazy, its supplies can support an army of 100,000 at most.

The Korean border is 2,000 miles from north to south, with 5 million people and more than 100,000 soldiers with armor. ”

Quan Wei reminded: "But we have always been a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and if the vassal state and the suzerainty go to war, even if it will not be destroyed in the short term, but in the long run, how can I deal with myself?"

What's more, the Ming can completely cut off trade with us. ”

Lord Shouyang waved his hand and interrupted the right to say: "We can transfer the goods from Japan, and we can also learn from Japan and send people to the coast of Daming to be a Japanese robber."

You believe me, starting from Xuanzong, the Ming Dynasty has already been strong in the outside world. The Liaodong Army is a group of straw bales and rice buckets that waste the grain of the Great Tomorrow.

I have made up my mind, let's send troops, fight a battle first, and then we will bear the guilt if we lose, and if we win, we can negotiate terms with Daming. ”

Quan Wei and the others all got on the thief ship of the Shouyang Lord, and there was no way to resolutely oppose it. Besides, it shows that the army has been killed under the city of Pyongyang, and everyone directly surrenders and asks for guilt, which will definitely not end well. Therefore, I can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and I will talk about it first.

North Korea's 30,000 elites had already assembled in Kaesong, and they did what they said they would do at the moment, and secretly sent troops on the third day.

The march from Kaesong to Pyongyang was more than 400 miles.

On 13 April, the Korean naval division attacked Xuanju north of Anju, cutting off the Ming army's return route.

On 14 April, 30,000 elite Korean heavy infantry launched an attack on the 20,000 Ming Liaodong Army besieging Pyongyang.

The Liaodong army was unprepared and collapsed at the first touch, and then fled north all over the mountains.

This rout didn't matter, it also brought the 10,000 Liaodong troops who were besieging Anzhou.

So the 30,000 Liaodong army converged in one place, looked at the wind and fled north, until Xuanzhou was blocked by the Korean sailors.

Xuanzhou is backed by mountains and faces the sea, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Liaodong Army naturally cannot rush through.

Jiang Yuan and Fang Ying led 10,000 cavalry to garrison in the east of Anzhou City, and they were dumbfounded when they watched their battle line continue to move north.

Jiang Yuan was really anxious, the first time he led his troops to fight, he was originally happy, thinking about competing with Xu Youzhen, but as soon as he came up, he was defeated like a mountain, this Liaodong Army was not commanded at all, and there was no trace of wanting to serve the country.

Fang Ying had already thought of a way out for his 10,000-strong army, and he didn't care about the outcome of the battle. It's just that the combat power of the Liaodong Army is so strong that it is really eye-opening and dumbfounded.

Sure enough, Jiang Yuan, who was already completely panicked, asked Fang Ying for advice: "Nanhe Hou, the matter has come to this, how to redeem the defeat?" ”

Fang Ying said with a smile: "Before I left Beijing, Your Majesty instructed that if our army's first battle was unfavorable, we could lead the army straight to Hamgyong Road.

In the past few days, I have sent soldiers to inspect the mountain road to Hamxing.

Anzhou is more than 300 miles away from Xianxing, and you can reach it in seven or eight days by walking on a mountain road. We joined forces with Li Chengyu, and although we couldn't fight south, it was not a big problem to hold the city. ”

As soon as Fang Ying said this, Jiang Yuan had a lot of questions to ask: "Our ten thousand people are all cavalry, is it suitable for walking mountain roads?" ”

Fang Ying said with a smile: "We people have been fighting in the south for many years, don't you know, the south is full of mountains. We may not be good at other things, but it's not me to brag about it, just these small hills in North Korea are not much different from flat land in our eyes. ”

Jiang Yuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and continued to ask, "What about the 30,000 Liaodong Army?" ”

Fang Ying spread her hands: "Your Majesty said, if you are not willing to fight bravely for the country, let them go." Besides, the 20,000 troops behind me are also about to arrive, let them rescue the Liaodong Army. ”

Jiang Yuan is a civilian official, and although he may not understand much about military affairs, he can hear the black language clearly and clearly. What is 'Camera Rescue'? In its practical vernacular, if you don't save it, you can't love it.

But Jiang Yuan couldn't figure out whether this was Fang Ying's own meaning or the emperor's meaning, so he could only continue to ask, "What about after we go to Xian'an?" ”

"Stay in Xian'an, wait for the opportunity, wait for reinforcements."

After the discussion was decided, Jiang Yuan completely handed over the command of the army to Fang Ying and quickly marched in the direction of Xian'an.

Jiang Yuan has an advantage, that is, he understands that he doesn't understand military affairs, so he doesn't do it, and obediently hands over the command to Fang Ying, who is proficient in military affairs.

Early in the morning of April 27.

Zhu Qiyu got up in a daze, and after many days of hard work, the results of the examination finally came out.

As soon as he got up, Qianxue came over and reported: "Husband, the tribute of the new department, there is a man named Kong Gongsui, who is the fifty-eighth grandson of Confucius, he heard that his mother was seriously ill, and he ran home directly, and he didn't participate in the palace test. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "The Kong family also has a filial son, send someone to call him back, it's not easy to study hard for decades, so let's finish the palace exam."

Let's treat the courtiers humanely, send personal guards to pick them up, and allow Kong Gongsui to change fast horses at the post stations along the way.

The palace test was held on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, and from Qufu to Beijing, it was almost possible to catch up. ”

Lin Xiangyu asked on the side: "Who are the champions, Bangyan, and Tanhua of this subject?" Did you have a choice in your husband's mind? ”

Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "It's hard to say, it's really hard to say this year, I still have to pass the palace test and observe again."

Although I have read all the examination papers, most of the marking papers are the responsibility of the cabinet, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Officials, and I have not interfered too much.

I don't know if there are any great talents in this session, but there are quite a few sons of ministers.

I just watched a part, and there are He Wenyuan, Tan Jiuchou, and Liu Qiu's sons in this Jinshi, and the great-grandson of Wei Guan. ”

Lin Xiangyu asked curiously, "Liu Qiu?" Is that Liu Qiu? ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Hey, yes, it's that Liu Qiu." Hmph, and this Wei Guan, it's even more difficult to do.

When Zhang Shicheng occupied Suzhou, he changed the Suzhou prefect's yamen into a palace. When Wei Guan was the prefect, he changed the palace back to the Suzhou prefect's yamen.

Taizu quit, gave Wei Guan a hat to miss Zhang Shicheng, and cut them off.

Now it's okay, the great-grandson of the family is a jinshi again. You said that I should rehabilitate Wei Guan, or should I be rehabilitated? ”

Thanks to the evil Taoist for the reward of 101 coins
