Chapter 0519 Difficult Decision(1/2)
As the saying goes, a wise man will make a mistake in a thousand thoughts, and a fool will make a mistake in a thousand thoughts.
In the civilization of China five years ago, every common saying and proverb has its origin and is philosophical.
Take Zheng Changsheng as an example. On the day of his expedition, Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Empire, personally delivered a toast.
Although it was not in front of all civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty, the place where the official pavilion was ten miles away was the north gate.
The North Gate usually goes to war or receive surrender, which is where the emperors of a country are activated.
The significance contained in Lao Zhu was able to send Zheng Changsheng to the expedition in the north gate, which can be seen.
Ten miles away from the official pavilion, Jinyi Guard had already set up a post of three miles away.
Of course, this is not just the Jinyiwei, but also Lao Zhu's close guard.
It can be said that it is three miles and one gang, two miles and one whistle.
The defense is airtight.
For ordinary people, don’t even think about it. Within ten miles, there are all forbidden areas.
Lao Zhu held a glass of imperial wine in his hand: "Yue Dan, after this, we will travel thousands of miles, and we will hand over all the dispatch rights to you.
You can mobilize all the troops south of the Ming Dynasty with the gold medal we gave you.
Our will has been issued long ago, and we hope that you can achieve success in one battle and thoroughly evaluate the country.
Maitreya Buddhism is our biggest concern.
Over the years, more and more suppression has increased. I don’t know if our governance measures cannot meet the needs of the people, or if our virtues are really a loss.
We thought about it for so long, but we couldn't figure it out.
Why, Maitreya, the disaster of such a country, and so many people believe in them.
This time, we can say that we want to exorcise the country's strength and we must destroy it.
Don’t let our high expectations down, try to wipe out it in one fell swoop.
The people of our Ming Dynasty were already suffering enough. The Central Plains have been wars for years and finally had a foundation for the stability of the country.
We don't want any more unrest.
This time, we will allocate all the three thousand camps of Jinyi to you for command, hoping that the world will be settled in one battle.
It can stabilize the country and free up hands to deal with the rebellions of the Northern Yuan and Yunnan and Guizhou.
Alas!! The people of my Ming Dynasty have been fighting hard for a long time!"
Lao Zhu's words were really like a sharp steel knife inserted into Zheng Changsheng's heart.
The concepts of Lao Zhu and Liu Bowen and Zheng Changsheng can be said to be unanimous.
The only difference is that Zheng Changsheng traveled through time, one king and one minister, both of them tried to quell the riots at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and allow the people to live and work in peace and contentment.
Of course, this may be Liu Bowen's real political philosophy, and Lao Zhu may have seen the situation in the world, and he also wanted the antenna to be stable, but the most of it was the successive generations of Zhu Ming's country.
However, for now, the political ideas of the three people are overlapping.
Zheng Changsheng came through time, and he definitely did not want the Chinese ethnic group to be divided into pieces. In addition, the historical writing is like a knife, and it is recorded with a clear stroke by stroke.
He doesn't want to change history too much.
Not to mention that it is the idea of the Han people who are thinking, it is good that they can reduce internal strife and consumption even for the sake of the failure of the Chinese ethnic group.
Therefore, no matter whether Lao Zhu understood Zheng Changsheng or not, or what kind of thought he was using Zheng Changsheng, Zheng Changsheng was already determined to eliminate the Maitreya Cult and stabilize China.
Three cups and two cups of light wine are common descriptions, but wine is actually good wine.
It is the good wine brewed by Zheng Changsheng.
Zhu Xiaosi, no matter what, after having good things, he still thinks about Lao Zhu.
The son is thinking about me, and I also think about my son. Father and son are on blind dates and descendants love each other. This is Lao Zhu’s most beautiful fantasy.
But later it changed its taste, that's another thing.
At least, for now, Zhu Xiaosi is still thinking about his father Zhu Yuanzhang.
In Yanjing, northern China, good wine was brewed, but it was still necessary to send it to his father Zhu Yuanzhang for tasting.
Otherwise, so many censors in the court would have a single book that would be enough for him to drink a pot.
The wine is fragrant with the bottle, and Zheng Changsheng knew it as soon as Lao Zhu opened the bottle.
This must have been sent to Lao Zhu from Yanjing.
Zheng Changsheng knew all the wines in the imperial capital at present, and some were used for medical treatment in Yuhua Academy, and some were in stock.
He owned a part of it, and he knew the changes in the quantity of all this bottle of fragrant and strong wine.
Since there is no change in the capital, there is only one possibility, which is sent by Zhu Xiaosi from Yanjing.
Three large glasses of wine and strong wine, Zheng Changsheng had three drinks of wine and didn't even eat anything.
When I came out of my home, I was in a mess of melancholy.
I ate nothing and had three cups of fun with Lao Zhu on an empty stomach.
Lao Zhu was dizzy after drinking, and the imperial carriage accompanied him to the palace to rest.
But Zheng Changsheng is different.
He wanted to rush to go, and after three glasses of strong wine, he drank it like the usual way of sending out wine in the Ming Dynasty.
No matter how much you can drink, you are still drunk.
But Lao Zhu really invested a lot this time. Zheng Changsheng not only notified all the officials in the south in advance, but also the generals at the garrison, all of them were strict.
Everything is subject to Zheng Changsheng's order.
Perhaps Zheng Changsheng was really careless too.
The three thousand camps of Jinyi are in charge. This can be said to be the most powerful firearm unit in the Ming Dynasty?
If it really comes to the battlefield, the North Yuan troops of three to five thousand will be no problem.
Zheng Changsheng was sure of this in his heart.
He is confident in his combat power. As the main battle general on one side, Zheng Changsheng has so many guards under his command.
He didn't take it seriously at all.
Along the way, along the prefectures, there were responses and supplies from local officials.
Wherever the army went, there were responses.
The destination of this trip is the Yunlong Dong area where the old nest of Maitreya Buddhism is connected to Xiang, Guizhou and Guizhou.
I have to say that Zhang Heihu is cunning. He also has his own considerations when he set up the Maitreya Cult's nest in the Yunlongdong area of Hunan, Guizhou and Qian.
In this area, most ethnic minorities are ethnic minorities, especially the Dong people.
He can attack and retreat or defend. If he advances, there will be a large number of believers in the heart of the Central Plains. If he retreats, he has already greeted the Dong people in Hunan, Guizhou and Guizhou.
It's also an offensive and defensive alliance?
Wu Mian, the famous uprising leader in the early years of Hongwu in history, launched a movement against the Ming Dynasty that he launched can be said to have shocked Hunan, Guizhou and Guizhou.
It took many years to mess up the southern part of the Ming Dynasty.
This is also what Zheng Changsheng is worried about. Although none of the current situation and intelligence are directed at Wu Mian, this has to be taken precautions.
Wu Mian's stirring up wind and rain can be said to have shocked the southwest half of the Ming Dynasty.
If this is really a problem if Zhang Heihu and Wu Mian get together in Maitreya, it will be very troublesome to evaluate it in one fell swoop.
However, judging from the information Zheng Changsheng has received so far, he is not in a convergence situation.
Now I am afraid that the forces from both sides will merge. This is the confidant of the Ming Dynasty.
Grandma's, I don't know if it's a bad year or something.
Zheng Changsheng carefully calculated the scope of activities of Wu Mian and the Maitreya Cult in this era.
I felt a little panicked for no reason.
But he still set it with the best idea now. Of course, he also has the worst plan.
Both aspects need to be considered, this is the talent for generals.
It is said that a general is incompetent to exhaust the three armies. Zheng Changsheng does not want to cause so many soldiers from the Ming Dynasty to die tragically because of his own fault.
Otherwise, if you don’t have to do anything, you don’t do anything if you don’t have the position.
Now Zheng Changsheng is in his position and has to do his own politics.
Everything must be done, prevent problems before they happen, and everything must be done to predict the enemy's initiative. This is a qualified commander.
Speaking of this day, the marching days were mixed with Zheng Changsheng's deliberate training of the Three Thousand Battalions in the Brocade.
Sixty miles a day was already the limit of ancient marching, but Zheng Changsheng didn't know what he was thinking. He might be thinking about the Red Army, the People's Liberation Army or the Volunteer Army under the leadership of our party in the future, and marching hundreds of miles a day was the norm.
He also came with this idea and tried his best to reach the limit of the army.
To be continued...
