Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

One after another, civil officials related to the Donglin Party were dismissed and investigated, and the government and the public mourned.

This sudden turmoil lasted for more than two months before Zhu Youjian finally showed up to stop the turmoil from spreading.

However, everyone knows that the party struggle has already begun, so it doesn't mean that it can be stopped by stopping!

For Zhu Youjian, it is not an easy task to grasp the balance.

The trend of history is bifurcated again, and it is beyond recognition. No one knows where this ruined and rotten ship will eventually go, whether it will collapse suddenly, or rebuild a new life...

……

Chapter 133 I know it well

The torrential rain came very suddenly, as if the god was angry, the rain poured down, and the raindrops hurt painfully.

In this pouring rain, the marching sequence that stretches to the sky is like a long dragon entrenched between the mountains.

The coir raincoat covered the face, and the horseshoes stepped on the muddy rain and mud, splashing muddy water and staining the area. From time to time, there were bursts of shouts, while maintaining the order of the march, more people were urging the army to deliver food and grass. .

This is on the official road leading to Shaanxi. Naturally, this large army is part of the Yongwei Battalion that marched from Zhending Mansion to Shaanxi.

To be precise, now, it has arrived at the junction of Shanxi and Shaanxi, and is about to enter Shaanxi.

A heavy rain is naturally an incomparable annoyance to the marching soldiers, but to the local people, it is like nectar from the sky, relieving part of the severe drought.

But the torrential rain came suddenly, and disappeared very suddenly. In just a moment, the rain was over and the sky cleared up. After losing the coolness of the rain, the venomous sun swayed its venomousness on the earth wantonly.

The wetness that invaded the ground was also evaporated by the scorching sun very quickly. Just as the rain was cooling off, it was immediately replaced by the scorching sun and steaming heat. This change is really helpless.

"Decree, set up camp on the spot today, let the Huotou army prepare the decoction for the summer heat, and make sure that every soldier is safe and sound."

"Also, ask the cavalry battalion to check the condition of the horses."

On the side of the horse, Li Xiu felt the steaming heat, and gave the order decisively.

The ordering soldiers galloped forward, and the accurate general's order was transmitted to every soldier's ears, and the army that was moving slowly came to a standstill.

"Drive! Drive! Drive!"

During this rest period, several fast horses came galloping. When the army was mobilizing and resting, it was normal for the fast horses to gallop, but when Li Xiu glanced at one of the knights who was different from the brave guards After wearing Jia's clothes, his brows suddenly frowned.

About two hundred steps away from Li Xiu, the galloping horse was stopped, and then a personal guard galloped over.

"General, the Trilateral Governor's Mansion has sent someone."

"Bring him here."

Soon, under the "protection" of several guards, a middle-aged civil servant in a fifth-rank official robe walked up to Li Xiu with his head held high.

"Military Order of the Trilateral Governor!"

With his hands on his back, the civil servant spit out a sentence in an unhurried manner.

"Ok?"

Li Xiu was about to listen to the arrangement of the three governors' mansions, but there was no more to say. Looking at the high-spirited civil servant in front of him, Li Xiu couldn't help being a little unresponsive.

"Military Order of the Trilateral Governor!"

Just when Li Xiu was puzzled, the civil official saw Li Xiu still sitting upright on his horse without any movement, and repeated the sentence with a gloomy face.

Seeing the official's expression, Li Xiu didn't know what the official meant.

Looking at the Ming Dynasty, since the Tumu Fortress was changed, it was manipulated by Nazhu Mingmen, resulting in the pillars of honor and honor being almost wiped out. After the civil officials took power completely, the status of civil and military affairs was completely out of balance.

It has become a fact that the culture is noble and the military is inferior, and it has become more and more serious with the development of time.

Up to now, when a high-ranking military officer sees a civil servant of the fourth or fifth rank, nodding and bowing is regarded as civil official courtesy, and even kneeling is the norm!

But right now, what this pretentious civil servant is going to do is obviously very clear.

"What kind of bullshit military orders, say what you have to say, let go of what you want to fart, what kind of bastard are you pretending to be here!"

Erwazi is obviously a violent person. Seeing that the civil servant was putting on airs, he immediately drew his sword and cursed viciously.

The guards on the side, at this time, also looked at the civil servant viciously at this time, and the gleaming blade was also a little eager to try.

"Presumptuous! What do you want to do? To defy the military order, are you going to rebel?"

The civil servant seemed a little lacking in confidence, but he still had a strong momentum and shouted loudly.

stomping on...

Li Xiu urged him to move forward, and finally, he stopped slowly in front of the civil servant, raised his blade lightly, and directly lifted the civil servant's chin. Seeing the man's terrified expression, Li Xiu's eyes were full of disgust, he raised his hand, and grabbed it The so-called military order in the civil official's hand glanced at it, but he couldn't help chuckling.

This Yang He played with a good plan, the order to deploy troops throughout the article, but there is no logistical arrangement at all, the allocation of food, grass and military equipment!

Although he had already made preparations for a white job, but the appearance of eating was too ugly.

"Go back and tell your governor that I will lead an army from a long distance. We are short of men and horses, and there is a shortage of food and grass. I hope your governor will allocate enough food, grass and military equipment as soon as possible to strengthen the morale of the army!"

Yang He's eating was ugly, and Li Xiu's attitude was also very obvious. Since he came to Shaanxi, he naturally needs to fulfill the responsibility of suppressing thieves.

Food for the king, loyalty to the king.

The emperor treats him favorably, so naturally he cannot disappoint the emperor.

However, the suppression of thieves belongs to the suppression of thieves, and everyone does not violate the river water. If you want to dictate, it is not impossible. With enough food, grass and weapons, he can naturally respond to the orders of the trilateral governor's office and maintain a superficial relationship.

"Get out of here, and stare at the young master to gouge out your eyeballs!"

After Li Xiu's voice fell, Erwazi raised his saber and cursed viciously. The civil servant, who was still angry at first, ran away under the threat of this blade.

"What the hell, you're pretending, you're really treating yourself as someone else, Brother Xiu, just say something, I'll bring someone to kill him and feed him to the dogs, and I'll make sure no one notices it!"

"You talk too much nonsense, stay in the cavalry battalion if you have nothing to do, when the cavalry goes wrong, your legs will be interrupted!"

As soon as these words came out, Erwazi, who was still aggressive at first, suddenly became silent, smiled awkwardly, and hurriedly disappeared from Li Xiu's sight.

"General, you have completely offended him. When he goes back to slander you, General, you will completely tear yourself apart from that Yang He!"

At this time, Sun Xian spoke out with some worry.

"Even if he doesn't tear his face, he can't live in harmony with the general."

Li Xiu is very free and easy. In fact, the governor of the three sides, the governor of the three sides military affairs, means that the three sides of Shaanxi, and any military force, are under the jurisdiction of the governor of the three sides.

However, the Son of Heaven is close to the army and obediently obeys the orders of the three governors?Where to hit?Just do what you say?

Is this possible?

Among other things, Zhu Youjian might be the first to be unwilling!

Not to mention, Li Xiu knows it well, he is now a thorn in the side of many civil servants.

It is also unknown whether Yang He will push the boat along the way and regard himself as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh.

However, yes, it should be very likely.

Otherwise, it is impossible for this first military order to go through the entire order without seeing the slightest supply of military pay and food...

Chapter 134 Deduction

The place where the army is stationed is located in Luliang County, which borders Shanxi and Shanxi. The temporary camp is surrounded by mountains and rivers. Although it is not a good place to camp, it is not bad to choose in a hurry.

The procedure of setting up the camp has been carried out countless times in the Yongwei Camp. Everything has long been a routine, and each performs its duties in an orderly manner.

In the tent of the Chinese army commander, the picture of the universe of the Ming Dynasty is still hanging high, and it has already completely occupied Li Xiu's entire field of vision.

It can be said that it is only a stone's throw away from Shaanxi, and Yan'an Mansion, which is only more than a hundred miles away, has a large group of rebels looting, but Li Xiu's attention, from the beginning to the end, never paid too much attention to those so-called rebels.

As usual, his gaze was once again fixed on Jizhou Town, north of the capital.

Although he has never been to Ji Town or border gates in person, he can already simulate every city gate and every important place in Ji Town in his mind!

Li Xiu is even more familiar with the route of Hou Jin's breakthrough and entry in history.

For this upcoming war, Li Xiu has already deduced it in his mind for countless times.

It is also true that Li Xiu's expectations are getting lower and lower.

At the very beginning, he wanted to rewrite history, and even cut off the possibility of Hou Jin's detour.

But to do this, one condition must be met, that is, the Ming Dynasty must have a great influence on the various ministries of Mongolia.

Mongolia is uncertain, even if Nurhachi is very courageous, he would not dare to take a detour to break through the barrier at the risk of being cut off from the back.

But obviously, during the past few months, with Huang Taiji's conquest of Mongolia, the tribes that had been vacillating between Daming and Houjin were suppressed one by one by Houjin, but the Ming Dynasty Hall died because of the death of the emperor, and the new emperor Ascension to the throne, the party struggles endlessly without doing anything, the possibility of this has become almost impossible!

It can be said that up to now, the early strategic preparations for the Houjin detour to Mongolia and conquer the Ming Dynasty have basically been completed.

Li Xiu's expectations were naturally shattered.

And if the possibility of enemy invasion cannot be cut off, then, under normal circumstances, what to do is naturally to keep the enemy out of the country.

The Nine Frontiers of the Ming Dynasty was originally established to defend against the disasters in the frontiers, but now, counting the disasters in the northern borders of the Ming Dynasty, Hou Jin is naturally the leader.

Only in this way did Liao Town have a special status.

Of course, if it is purely for the capital, besides Liao Town, there are also Jizhou Town and Xuanfu Town.

And these two, if only for Houjin, Jizhou Town is undoubtedly the most important.

The so-called guarding Liao must guard Ji is the regulations set by Qi Jiguang when he was the commander-in-chief of Ji Town.

And the biggest reason for saying this is because once a bandit enters from Jizhen, it can directly cut off the connection between North China and Liaodong, making the Liaodong army instantly become a lone army.

Of course, this possibility is very small, after all, the other armies of Ming Dynasty are not blind.

However, it can also be seen from this that for Hou Jin, who is trapped in the bitter cold land of Liaodong, Ji Town is the best choice when Liao Town is difficult to break.

Naturally, Li Xiu would not think that all the court officials would not be able to see this.

Moreover, it was still in the case that almost all the arguments were clearly stated in his memorial book.

It's just frustrating that even though the facts are in front of them, many people choose to ignore them, or look at them with great suspicion.

Not to mention, since Emperor Tianqi's death in today's court, there has been a surge of undercurrents, but Zhu Youjian, who has just ascended the throne, has no foundation at all to suppress this situation.

The only thing he can do is to accumulate foundation little by little and cultivate strength in this kind of party struggle through the technique of balance.

Even if there are a small number of insightful people, it is difficult to do anything under the general trend of this party fighting against dissidents!

Home country country, home first, country after!

National affairs are not worth mentioning in front of the interests of individuals and cronies!

This is a common phenomenon in the Ming Dynasty Hall today.

Just like in the memorial book that Li Xiu played, the most direct way to deal with Houjin's detour is to strengthen and improve the military equipment of Jizhou Town.

Up to now, although the court has discussed this matter, once it involves such issues as position changes, food, grass and military pay, the discussion has become an endless wrangling.

Until now, there has been a lot of thunder and little rain, but now that Donglin and the eunuchs are fighting again, and after their own interests have been violated, the only thunder has disappeared...

Up to now, the possibility of defending against the enemy outside the country has become almost impossible!

After all, Li Xiu is very clear about the current situation in Ji Town.

Food and salaries have been in arrears for a long time, the quality of soldiers and generals is low, morale and morale are almost non-existent, and the fortress defenses have been in disrepair for a long time.

Coupled with the reason for staying in the border for a long time, it is even more necessary to find a side door, so it is inextricably related to the Mongolian grassland...

How can such an important defensive town take on the important task of defending the enemy from outside the country!

Up to now, Li Xiu has no more unrealistic ideas.

What he wants to do is how to make Hou Jin lose his soldiers and generals in this war, instead of leaving in a cool way that has been called a great victory in history!

And to achieve all this, all he can rely on is the Yongwei Battalion.

Of course, among them, Zhu Youjian's support is also indispensable.

However, for this war, Zhu Youjian can provide very little support.

After all, Zhu Youjian's enthronement time is too short, and he only has the name of the emperor, so he doesn't have much say in the court. The current Zhu Youjian, above the court, is more concerned with observing politics rather than Governance!

In fact, every successor emperor ascends the throne, at the very beginning, is also at this stage. Of course, if it is the kind of prince who has been a prince for more than ten years, or even decades, and the power of the direct line spreads all over the government and the public, it is naturally different...

Of course, to a certain extent, Zhu Youjian's full support is the most important thing to Li Xiu.

One must know that even with the early warning from Li Xiu's memorandum, the attitudes of the ruling and opposition parties towards this matter are mostly skeptical.

But Zhu Youjian, since the playbook came into his hands, he firmly believed in it, and he did his best to support him without reservation, which is Li Xiu's greatest confidence.

It's ridiculous to say that in the past, Li Xiu never thought of himself as a good person. Everything he did was for himself to gain a better foothold in this era. He even changed day by day and got his hands on artifacts.

But good luck is always so tricky, let him meet Zhu Youjian, and what is even more tricky is that because of his arrival, Zhu Youjian actually ascended the throne of the emperor in advance.
