Chang Yu continued: "In addition to the difficult mountain roads, there is also a long detour! If the Tatars want to enter the pass from Xifengkou, they need to go over the mountains from Chaoyang along the Daling River and other valleys. From Gubeikou, you have to go north from Shenyang to the Horqin Sandy Land, follow the Xiliao River (Xilamulun River) westward to Chifeng, then go south along the Laoha River to Pingquan, and then cross the Luanhe River to Luanping. It will take at least five to six hundred miles of mountain road walking.
To walk through Juyongguan, you have to go west along the Liaohe River from Shenyang to the Inner Mongolia Plateau to Zhangjiakou and then go south to Juyongguan. This road has to go around thousands of miles.
The mountain road is difficult to travel, and the long detour is too long to provide logistical supplies, so this is why the Tatars, especially Huang Taiji, want to fight against our Guanning defense line!"
Now it was Zhu Cixiang's turn to sigh, looking at Chang Yu and shaking his head: "How do you know so much? You should be lecturing for the East Palace. Look what those great scholars have taught me."
Chang Yu smiled: "You do what you do and love what you do. When I was just a little eunuch doing odd jobs in the palace, what I thought about most was how to get some money and how to please my master. But since the war with the warlord, I have started to crazily supplement this aspect. "Knowledge" said, looking at the due north and sighing: "The impregnable Liaodong defense line now only has a brick left."
Zhu Cixiang's face became heavy again.
Chang Yu raised his hand and pointed to the north: "Both Emperor Taizu and the previous dynasties had no shortage of far-sighted people. After the rise of the Tatars, they saw that their power was irreversible, so they changed their strategy to use defense as offense, and turned this After the Western Liaoning Corridor was put into operation, the Guanning-Ningjin Defense Line was established. Although it was not invincible, it was enough to maintain an invincible position. Who would have thought... In the end, it is not as good as God, or God's will is difficult to violate..."
"Chang Yu, let me tell you in detail about the Western Liaoning Corridor and the Guanning-Jin Defense Line." Zhu Cixiang gritted his teeth and clenched his fists with bulging veins.
Chang Yu knew that the child was extremely angry again.
The Western Liaoning Corridor is bounded by the sea to the east, and to the west are Yanshan Mountain, Qilaotu Mountain, Nuruerhu Mountain and other continuous high mountains. This narrow, relatively flat passage is about 200 kilometers long, with the widest point being only more than ten kilometers. The narrowest place is only a few kilometers. At the southern end of the Hexi Corridor, the narrowest place is Shanhaiguan, which is equipped with a fortified city. It can be said that one man can guard the pass and no one can open it. The narrowest place in the middle section of the Liaoxi Corridor is Ningyuan City. The northern end of the Liaoxi Corridor The first line of defense is Jinzhou. With these three strongest cities guarding the Western Liaoning Corridor, they are dangerous and have enough depth. As long as the defenders are not too stupid and there are no internal problems in the Ming Dynasty, the Tatars will be able to break through. The entire line of defense is almost impossible.
"It's almost impossible, but we ended up like this... Is it because the court is incompetent or the general is incompetent!" Zhu Cixiang looked ashen.
"Maybe they are all, or maybe the Tatars are too strong." Chang Yu said and laughed suddenly: "No matter how strong they are, even Huang Taiji's head was beaten to a bloody head on this line of defense. We can only go over mountains and ridges again and again and take long detours to enter the pass and loot and vent our hatred!"
As he spoke, he sighed again: "I think how magnificent and strong this defense line was back then." He raised his hand and pointed: "A few dozen miles outside the pass is the Guangning Guards Front Guards, and further north is the Guangning Front Guards Center and Rear Guards. So, Ningyuan Guards Center Right Post, then Ningyuan Guards, then North Ningyuan Guards Center Left Post, Tashan, Xingshan, Songshanbao, Guangning Zhongzuo Tun Guards, then Jinzhou... Yizhou Guards, Guangning Guards, Shenyang Wei" said and pointed to the sea to the east: "There are also Haizhou Wei, Gaizhou Wei, and Fuzhou Wei in Liaodong Town (Liaoyang) on the other side! It's a pity that Liaodong Town was lost first in Wanli Year, Tianqi lost Shenyang again, and Song Dynasty lost it the year before last. After the Battle of Jin Dynasty, the entire Liaodong defense system completely collapsed. It had 25 guards, 120 forts, and 107 castles. Only Ningyuangu City remained, and all the defense posts were destroyed! From the 46th Wanli Period, It has been less than 30 years since Nurhaci rebelled against the Ming Dynasty. Almost all the territory outside the Ming Dynasty has been lost. And these territories were conquered inch by inch by our ancestors with their blood and lives."
Chang Yu's words completely made Zhu Cixiang collapse. He covered his head with his hands and twisted wildly and shouted: "The inheritance of the ancestors, the inheritance of the ancestors!"
The attendants nearby were shocked to see him lose his composure and all looked at Chang Yu.
Chang Yu shook his head and said not to worry: "It is difficult to conquer a country, but it is even harder to defend a country. Emperor Taizu spent sixteen years to conquer the country. Two hundred and seventy-six years later, the unscrupulous descendants have lost their legs. There are some things I can't say.
I said it in front of the emperor, but you can listen."
"I, I, I don't care, you must fight back, Chang Yu, you must regain the inheritance of your ancestors!" Zhu Cixiang was already a little hysterical.
"If I alone want to regain the inheritance of my ancestors, it will be difficult to reach the sky. It depends on us!" Chang Yu walked up to him and patted Zhu Cixiang on the shoulder. He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to go out and be alone to give this future emperor
Going to class, exerting some influence subtly, sowing some seeds in his heart.
"We?" Zhu Cixiang was stunned.
: "I, the officers, the court, the emperor, and you in the future, together they are called us!" Chang Yu looked into the distance: "If one of them is missing, it will be like them."
Zhu Cihong knew who they were. Sun Chuanting, Hong Chengchou and others.
Zhu Yaluo came back from watching the sea, her little face was pale with cold. She saw Zhu Cixiang came forward with tears in her eyes and whispered comforting words. The two brothers and sisters walked a little further and leaned against the wall and whispered. Zhu Cixiang's mood gradually calmed down, and Zhu Yuluo walked to Chang'an.
Yu stood in front of him and said very worriedly: "Brother Huang, will you be under too much pressure and get heart disease?"
"No, it will only encourage him to grow and become an ambitious and ambitious emperor in the future."
"Actually, you don't have to have much ambition to be an emperor. It's good if you can keep your ancestral legacy, right?" Zhu Aao raised her face and looked at Chang Yu.
Chang Yu saw that her face was pale, and he raised his hand and touched it lightly. It was very cold. Zhu A'ao didn't avoid or reject her, she just trembled slightly and bit her lip gently.
Chang Yu took off his scarf and put it on Princess Kunxing's head to cover her face: "Princesses should not worry about the emperor's affairs."
As he spoke, he beckoned Zhu Cihong to him: "I will give you a few words, and you will slowly understand them yourself."
Zhu Cixiang nodded: "You say it, and I listen."
"The first sentence is that truth is within the range of cannon and bow and arrow. The second sentence is that only war can bring peace."
Zhu Cixiang's eyes narrowed: "This should be similar to what you said before, "It is never morality and reason but fists that convince people."
Chang Yu smiled: "You will understand the truth yourself."
Zhu Cixiang nodded: "I have understood something about what I said before. Let me tell you. To convince others with virtue is firstly that you can't beat others and you have to reason with them. Secondly, you have to fight with them if your fists are strong enough.
Conquer people with virtue, otherwise you will be beaten easily!"
Chang Yu sighed noncommittally: "Your Majesty won't let you learn my methods, but the chicken soup I boil is very nutritious. It will be good for you to drink more."
Chicken soup, the Zhu family brothers and sisters were all stunned, where?
This gag also made Zhu Cixiang gradually calm down, and then the three of them turned around and went up the mountain to tour along the Great Wall.
"The Governor is so powerful. The prince's emotions are completely controlled by him. He laughs when he is asked to laugh, cry when he is asked to cry, and accept when he is asked to accept it!" Wang Zhengnan said in a low voice to Song Luoyu beside him.
"Although the Governor is young, he is a man of great ability and extremely talented. "There is no doubt that the old people around Chang Yu are his biggest fans.
"Extraordinary talent?" Wang Zhengnan was startled: "In what way?" Song Luoyu glanced at him: "You have bruises on the corners of your mouth. Did you really have sex with the governor this morning?"
Wang Zhengnan nodded: "The Governor must show no mercy in actual combat. He hurt me, and he was hurt by me..." He was suddenly stunned: "Hey, the wounds on his face..."
Song Luoyu laughed: "What's this? Just stab him with a knife and you'll know."
This frightened Wang Zhengnan: "Don't harm me, assassinating the governor is a capital crime." Song Luoyu couldn't help laughing: "You can wait until you have the ability to stab him to death."
What did this mean? Wang Zhengnan asked the Chen brothers next to him, but they just laughed and said nothing.
