It won't work if you don't fight, and it won't work if you fight slowly. You can't beat one against three. If you feel powerless to fight against two, then grit your teeth and hit one one at a time, defeating them one by one. This is Chang Yu's initial plan. At this time, the northern soldiers and horses
The most prosperous, so he wanted to be the first to operate on Li Zicheng after the beginning of spring.
"It's cheaper to sacrifice the thief and let him thrive in peace of mind. Once Sichuan is stabilized, it will be even more difficult to send troops to attack him in the future." Qin Liangyu frowned and sighed, but there was nothing he could do. The current situation was such that the imperial court was unable to start a war on two fronts.
"With General Qin here, how can the Xian thief be allowed to thrive with peace of mind?" Chang Yu turned his head and looked at Qin Liangyu with a sincere face: "In contrast to the second half of the year, once the intruders are defeated, they will immediately go to Sichuan to attack the Xian thief. In this half year, Sichuan will
I’m sorry to trouble General Qin.”
Looking at Chang Yu's sincere and expectant eyes, Qin Liangyu suddenly became excited, and his lofty ambitions revived, but in the end it turned into a long sigh: "I am old, I can protect myself by leaning on a corner of the stone, but if I want to contain it,
I'm afraid that the traitor is far away, but even Chongqing, right under his nose, is powerless."
The desolation of the general's unfulfilled ambitions in his old age spread instantly, but was broken by Chang Yu's words: "Although the general is old, he can still make a living, and his tiger's power is still there. When he climbs high, his followers are like clouds, and the general's family is rich in talents.
When the descendants are born in large numbers, they are still young and strong, and it is the time to make achievements. There is no need to worry about the injustice of Sichuan if there are successors to the general!"
Oh my gosh, this guy is so good at talking. Qin Liangyu has a new understanding of Chang Yu, but he heard it in his heart and was very happy. He naturally knew what this eunuch meant. Now the imperial court is particularly special in the southwest.
There were no soldiers in Sichuan, but we wanted to contain Zhang Xianzhong so that he could not stop. We had to recruit someone to serve the court at this critical and difficult time. There was no one in Sichuan who was more suitable than Qin Liangyu of Shizhu.
Qin Liangyu was loyal to the Ming Dynasty. Even if the imperial court just ordered her to act, she would not refuse. What's more, Chang Yu now wears a high hat in front of his face, and his words also show that he will never treat your descendants badly.
Her husband, brother, and son were all dead, leaving only four nephews and one grandson. Should he just remain unknown and become a local chieftain, or should he carry forward his family tradition and prefer a phoenix tail to a chicken head? Qin Liangyu chose the latter without hesitation.
!
The prosperity of Shizhu began with her, but its decline cannot end with her!
The family tradition of loyalty and righteousness must continue! She decided to let her grandson and Zhi continue to make contributions and continue to serve the Ming Dynasty!
"Mr. Chang, have you met my grandson and nephew?" Qin Liangyu mentioned Ma Wannian with light in her eyes. This was her only grandson, the only descendant of the Ma family, and she placed too many hopes on her.
Chang Yu nodded: "I met Ling Sun and General Qin Yiming in Fuzhou."
"Can Mr. Chang's Dharma Eyes be penetrated?" Qin Liangyu asked with a smile. After just over an hour of communication, she spoke highly of Chang Yu. He is a talented person with both wisdom and courage. This kind of person naturally also has discernment.
"Sun Puyu is a master of craftsmanship, but his achievements in the future will not be as good as yours. Qin Yiming's general is more than prudent, but lacks courage and courage."
Qin Liangyu was shocked. This eunuch had only met the two of them once, and had never seen his behavior on the battlefield with his own eyes, but he could see his weakness directly. You must know that several of her nephews had followed him in military campaigns since they were young.
No one knows everyone's strengths and weaknesses better than her. Qin Yiming's biggest shortcoming is cowardice!
As for what he said about Ma Wannian, it means that his basic skills are good, but not enough. He still needs training and experience! He hit the nail on the head.
Qin Liangyu smiled bitterly and said: "That kid Wannian is ambitious and hard-working and can endure hardships, but he does have too little experience. But if you say that his achievements will be as good as his father's in the future, I still don't believe it! To be honest, that kid is also like a unicorn.
ah!"
It can be seen that Qin Liangyu is very proud of his son Ma Xianglin, and Ma Xianglin is indeed worthy of his pride. Even Chang Yu's evaluation of Ma Xianglin is quite high: "A dragon and a phoenix among men, a general who is born once in a century with both loyalty and righteousness! He is worthy of heaven and earth."
As expected of our ancestors, what more could I ask for?"
One sentence made Qin Liangyu's eyes wet with tears, "You deserve to be worthy of heaven, earth, and your ancestors! Well done to my son!" As he said this, he bowed his hands to Chang Yu and said, "I am so honored by Mr. Chang. If we are here, we should be equal to Mr. Chang.
Drink three glasses of wine."
"I wish we could meet each other, I'm deeply sorry!" Chang Yu quickly said with his hands, Qin Liangyu really liked this young man so much at this time.
But as much as she likes it, what this young man asked her to do was extremely difficult. Containing Zhang Xianzhong and making him sleepy and sleepless was no longer as simple as the previous simple matter of restraining Zhang Xianzhong from sending troops to Yunnan.
"It's not me who can shirk it, but Shi Ling has only a few soldiers. It's really an embarrassing task! Master Chang, is there any other way?" Qin Liangyu means, I can take over the job, but I really can't handle it myself. Can you find me another helper?
Something like that.
"How many soldiers and horses do the general have under his command?" Chang Yu asked with raised eyebrows.
Qin Liangyu pondered for a while and said: "There are more than a thousand elite soldiers and three to five thousand new soldiers." Then he laughed and said: "You can get tens of thousands of people with just one shout from a high place, but it's okay if a mob of people shouts and cheers, but if they start a fight...ah."
Chang Yu couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. Zhang Xianzhong entered Sichuan and nearly wiped out Qin Liangyu's entire army. Some historical data say that her 30,000 elite soldiers were wiped out at that time, and she fled back alone. Although this has some water content, it is estimated that the most people escaped back.
Hundreds to thousands. The more than a thousand elite soldiers she is talking about now refer to the fierce white-armed soldiers. The remaining thousands of new soldiers may have been recruited again in the past year.
"General, you are not fighting alone." Chang Yu smiled: "As long as you have soldiers in the hands of the general, there is no need to worry about training elite soldiers. If you don't have experience, just go out and fight a few times. You only need to hold Puzhou and Fengdu in your hands."
In his hands, he has the opportunity to train his troops for actual combat, and the general does not have to worry that the thieves will gather heavy troops to attack the stone pillar, he does not dare!"
Oh, Qin Liangyu raised his eyebrows: "Why did Mr. Chang expect that he would not dare? This is exactly what I am worried about. If his military strength in Chongqing alone is not enough to pose a big threat to me, I am afraid that he will swarm me."
"Yunnan and Guizhou will not just watch indifferently."
Qin Liangyu understood immediately!
First of all, at this time, Zhang Xianzhong had just defeated Sichuan and was trying to maintain overall stability. It was impossible to use all his strength to attack her. That would outweigh the losses. Moreover, the terrain of Shizhu was particularly steep, not much worse than that of Chongqing. Moreover, he could not give up other places to attack a Tu County.
, once he dares to do that, other local officers and soldiers in Sichuan will take advantage of the opportunity to regain the lost ground, and Chang Yu's meaning is also very clear. At that time, troops from Yunnan and Guizhou will also enter Sichuan immediately. If they are allowed to directly fight Zhang Xianzhong and attack the city,
Land grabbing is not an opponent, but it is possible to send troops together to contain them.
Therefore, Zhang Xianzhong will definitely not and will not use all his troops to deal with Qin Liangyu, so that Qin Liangyu can torment him vigorously.
Since Chang Yu said this, he must have communicated with Yunnan and Guizhou.
"In addition, there is Zuo Liangyu from Wuchang outside Sichuan. He can send troops south to Sichuan at any time to provide reinforcements. With these three helpers, what else does the general have to worry about?" As soon as Chang Yu finished speaking, Qin Liangyu frowned.
"Zuo Liangyu?" Then he sneered and said: "Master Chang, you are a smart man. You should know that except for the dog Tatars, our Ming family thieves are not just two thieves." These words were vague but it was clear at first glance.
.
Chang Yu chuckled and nodded: "There are more than one thief looking around, but as long as Chang Yu doesn't die, no one will dare to rebel again!" These words were domineering and confident. Qin Liangyu nodded slightly with admiration on his face: "If you knew this, this matter could be serious
Why, I just need to ask Mr. Chang to give me some advice on how to play this game of chess."
