Chapter 895 Those who are good at fighting have no great achievements
In other words, was Ying Guogong really hinting at himself just now about the emperor's ability to command troops?
The more Han Du thought about it, the more he felt that what he guessed was the truth. Otherwise, there would be no need for Fu Youde to give him a meaningful look.
Because, if he was alluding to Feng Sheng, wouldn't it be natural for Feng Sheng to command his troops and win every battle?
Why can't it be stated explicitly but implicitly?
Exhaling a breath, Han Du was ready to find an opportunity to ask questions.
Nahachu and others surrendered, and the Ming army quickly took control of the situation in the city, and the army officially entered the city.
Han Du took advantage of the opportunity to find Fu Youde, bowed his hands and said, "General, I will pay my respects to Duke Ying."
"No gifts." Fu Youde has thick eyebrows, a square face, and a beard, giving him a rustic look. If he were wearing linen clothes, people who didn't know him would probably think of him as a farmer and ignore him.
Before Han Du could speak, Fu Youde said: "When I came here, Tang He specifically asked me to take more care of you. Now it seems that you can do well without me taking care of you."
Han Du naturally understood that Fu Youde was referring to the attack on Jinshan. He bowed his head and smiled modestly, and said, "Duke Ying is so ridiculous. Jinshan City was only able to be conquered because of Tang Ding's command. The last general never made the slightest mistake."
Strength. When it comes to naval battles, the general can still say a few words, but when it comes to land battles, the general knows nothing about it."
"You don't need to call yourself a junior general. I have a very good personal relationship with Tang He. Just think of me as your elder." Fu Youde stroked his beard and said with a smile.
After pausing for a few breaths, he said: "You don't have to be humble. I know all about Tang Ding's abilities. He doesn't have the ability to break through Jinshan in one day."
Han Du smiled and looked at Fu Youde, "Old Duke, you have miscalculated. As the saying goes, after three days of separation, you should look at each other with admiration. Brother Tang Ding really captured this Jinshan Mountain himself."
"Really? It seems that he has become more capable." Fu Youde just smiled and said casually, and didn't say anything more about Tang Ding.
Han Du couldn't continue to talk about this topic, so he turned to ask: "My father-in-law said before that those who are good at fighting have no great achievements. Are you talking about the emperor?"
When Fu Youde heard this, he did not answer Han Du directly. Instead, he smiled and turned away. However, when Fu Youde turned around, Han Du still saw him nodding secretly towards him.
After receiving Fu Youde's answer, his doubts were answered, and Han Du did not ask any more ignorant questions.
Naha surrendered, and the Ming army captured countless people. The number of soldiers and civilians in Naha alone was 340,000. The entire Liaodong and the black land plain of the Liaohe River fell directly into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, completely eliminating the influence of the puppet Yuan in Liaodong.
When the news reached the capital, Lao Zhu was so happy that he stayed up all night, and finally issued an order: Lan Yu led 50,000 cavalry to garrison Jinshan, Fu Youde garrisoned Daning with the newly acquired Han soldiers from Liao, and Feng Sheng returned to the court with his troops.
As for Han Du, who wanted to go back to see his wife and children, Lao Zhu pinned him next to Fu Youde and moved into Daning together.
Now that Liaodong has been conquered, the next step is to solve the problem of governance. Who made Han Du talk so shamelessly in front of Lao Zhu? Now Lao Zhu naturally refuses to let Han Du come back and wants him to be in Liaodong in person so that he can make suggestions.
As for Han Du wanting to know about An Qing and his children? Lao Zhu just wanted to know
I specially added a sentence to Han Du, saying that mother and son are safe, and that's it.
Just four words, not one more.
But just these four words made Han Du feel relieved.
I hope mother and son are safe!
Forget it, I'd better stop thinking about it, finish the mess that Lao Zhu told me quickly, and return to Beijing as soon as possible.
On the second day after Fu Youde entered Daning, he invited Han Du to have tea.
While holding the tea cup, Fu Youde asked with a smile: "The emperor has entrusted you with the civil affairs of Liaodong. What are you going to do?"
Liaodong is a land of fertile fields and thousands of miles. Although it is vast and sparsely populated, there are still hundreds of thousands of people there. Fu Youde was also afraid that Han Du was young and inexperienced. If he messed up, he would inevitably be punished by the emperor.
Therefore, I wanted to test Han Du's tone first and listen to Han Du's plans. If there was anything wrong, he could warn him as soon as possible.
When Han Du heard Fu Youde's question, he put down the tea cup and replied seriously: "I'm going to build the road first."
Road construction? This answer was a bit beyond Fu Youde's expectations, and it immediately made people frown slightly. Now that Liaodong has just experienced a war, and the soldiers and people here have just surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, shouldn't we first find ways to stabilize people's hearts?
However, considering Han Du's face, Fu Youde did not shake his head and refute directly, but continued to ask: "Why build the road first?"
Han Du nodded in response and smiled: "If Ming wants to permanently control Liaodong, it must build roads. Because only if the roads are smooth, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Liaodong will have uninterrupted communication with Ming. As the
With the gradual deepening of communication, they will integrate into the Ming Dynasty from the heart. If the road is not smooth and they are alone for a long time, they will naturally become alienated from the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty will lose the land of Liaodong again. "
"I didn't expect road construction to have such an effect. It seems that it is really the first big thing to be done." Fu Youde nodded one after another after hearing this.
"That's not all." Han Du pondered for a moment and continued: "Now we have hundreds of thousands of surrendered Naha soldiers. These people can't be beaten, scolded, let alone killed. If they are fed all day and have nothing to do,
, I am afraid that over time, some people will have other ideas. It is better to let them build roads now when they dare not resist at all. Road building is a job that requires a lot of physical strength. This way
, they are exhausted every day and fall asleep, naturally they have no mind to think about other things."
"Haha, okay. Building roads is a good idea. I'm still thinking about how to deal with these people. I didn't expect you to help me solve it." Fu Youde laughed happily. Building roads can not only have a close connection with the Ming Dynasty.
After getting up, it was able to solve the most pressing problem in his heart, which was people's peace. Fu Youde naturally no longer had any doubts and nodded directly in agreement with Han Du's plan.
As long as people's hearts are fixed, other things will be easy to handle.
"Then I will give you all these prisoners, and you can do it with confidence and boldness." Fu Youde said generously.
Han Du nodded and ended the topic, chatting and drinking tea with Fu Youde.
The next day, Han Dujian took over all the prisoners.
But now Han Du no longer has to do it personally like when he was building cement roads in the capital. Now that Han Du has arranged things, someone will naturally carry out the execution. In other words, Ying Guogong was really hinting to himself just now that the emperor
The ability to command troops?
