"This is really driving a wolf into a tiger, it's beyond stupid!" Chen Xiliang said horrified: "The lesson the Tang Dynasty learned from the Tibetan soldiers is still vivid in my mind. Those who are not of my race will harm our people!"
"It's ridiculous that Yu Wuxi is so famous, but so ignorant. "Well, I have strictly ordered Yu Jing that when the Jiaozhi people step into the national border, it will be the day their heads fall to the ground!" Di Qing said proudly: "The Great Song Dynasty
Fan Yi has no right to interfere in this matter!"
"Yes!" Chen Ke couldn't help but praise: "Those monkeys don't even have the qualifications to know!"
"Hahaha." Di Qing laughed loudly and said: "Well said!" He stood up, walked to the handsome case, picked up an appointment letter, looked at Chen Xiliang and said: "I want to use Chen Daling to praise the shogunate.
Paintings, I wonder if you are willing to give in?" The so-called shogunate's praise of paintings is not an official official position. This official is appointed when the commander-in-chief opens the government, and will be removed from the post when the shogunate returns to the court.
But in the future, when the master returns to the court, it will be the capital to reward him based on his merits.
Chen Xiliang was not aware of Di Qing's good intentions, but he said very honestly: "I don't know anything about military aircraft praise paintings, and I am afraid that I will miss the marshal's important event."
"If you don't understand, you can learn slowly." Di Qing didn't expect him to do anything, and said with a smile: "Although the warriors in the Song Dynasty have no status, the literati are good at military affairs, and their official career is much better than others..." This is natural.
Not to mention the distance, the current Prime Minister Pang Ji and the Privy Councilor Han Qi both led troops in the northwest.
"Please ask the Marshal for more teachings in the future." In this way, Chen Xiliang accepted the order happily.
Di Qing looked at Chen Ke again and said, "If you want to beat up Yu Wuxi, I support it, but his reputation is too great and it might damage your reputation."
"I'm the best at this." Chen Ke smiled and said, "I'm sure it will make him speechless."
"Well, you go back and talk to your father," Di Qing said with a smile: "As long as he agrees, I will let you go south with the army."
"Here. The latest chapter of the Holy Church." Chen Ke and his son stood up and left.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chen Xiliang couldn't sleep at night, and when he saw Chen Ke, he didn't sleep either: "What's wrong?"
"It's frustrating." Chen Ke said in a dull voice.
"Well, me too." Chen Xidian nodded and looked at the dark tent roof.
"The officials are well-deserved for their reputation for benevolence, but I disagree with his words." There has been equal communication between father and son for many years.
"Yeah." Chen Xiliang whispered: "The officials saw the problems of the Song Dynasty more clearly than we did, but they were afraid that it would get worse and kept accommodating them temporarily. In this way, it would indeed prevent big troubles, but redundant officials and redundant soldiers would
The redundancy will inevitably increase from this, and sooner or later there will be a day when it becomes unsustainable."
"I heard that when a country encounters this kind of institutional dilemma, there will be three situations." Chen Ke whispered: "One is the right reform, and the country will get out of the predicament and embark on a prosperous road, such as Shang Yang's reform and King Zhao Wuling's reform.
Reform. One is to try your best to ease the conflict, delay the outbreak of conflicts, and prolong the period of the country; the other is to mess around, the more problems you change, the more problems you have, and you will be tortured to death."
"Of these three situations, the first one is of course the best. But unfortunately, the bigger the country, the more complex the structure, the more difficult it is to cure the disease with medicine." Chen Ke continued: "So since the Qin Dynasty, there has been no
A successful reform."
"Well. Now it seems that those so-called successful reforms are just the second kind." Chen Xidian nodded and said: "But that is better than the third kind."
"This is exactly the mentality of the officials." Chen Ke said: "It's not like he hasn't tried the first one, otherwise there would be no Qingli New Deal. But the New Deal disappointed him so much that if it continues, the third result will only occur.
So he decisively called for a stop, and then he firmly followed the second route without wavering... The handling of this incident, as well as previous issues on several issues, are all manifestations of this attitude."
"Well said, my father's heart has become brighter," Chen Xidian nodded and said, "It's not that the official family doesn't want to change, it's just that he doesn't have a good strategy, so he would rather stay the same. ("")"
"..." Chen Ke was speechless and thought to himself, this is really a loyal fanatic. But after talking about it, he felt relieved... The rise and fall of the world is a matter for the emperor and his father-in-law. We, ordinary people,
, why should you just eat carrots and worry less? After beating Yu Wenshuai, he went to Ouyang Xiu's place to get gold plating. It would be fun to travel around the world. Maybe he wouldn't have to spend money to visit the brothels... Speaking of visiting the brothels, he thought that he would be eighteen soon.
According to traditional Chinese medicine, the essence has been solidified and you can break the fast... Hehehe, should we use the first time to save the women who lost their feet in the Song Dynasty? This is really a question...
All kinds of thoughts came out, and all the thoughts of concern for the country and the people rushed to Java.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Binzhou City on Guangnan West Road is only a hundred miles away from Yongzhou, Nong Zhigao's hometown.
Now it was re-captured by the Song Army, and a victory report was sent to the capital. But in fact, it was Nong Zhigao's army who had robbed enough on both sides of Guangnan. When they were tired, they heard about the famous General Mian Ni.
After arriving with the elite troops of the Song Dynasty, they took the initiative to return to Yongzhou for repairs, allowing the Southern Army to take the opportunity to recover a large area of lost territory.
Although the number of enemy kills in the merit book is still zero, the civil and military personnel in the Pennsylvania camp do not believe that the current situation is caused by Nong Zhigao's active contraction, but call it a major victory for their own side and are celebrating vigorously.
The highest officer in the camp, Yu Jing and Yu Wenshuai, rarely put down his arrogance and had fun with the generals. But his uncertain expression revealed the gloom in his heart at the moment...
The imperial court did not dismiss him from his post as the pacification envoy to Hunan and Guangxi, but sent Marshal Di to take full responsibility, and clearly ordered the southern officials to have the dictatorship of Marshal Di in all major military and political affairs. Where did this put him as a military commander?
Yu Jing felt like there was a thorn in the handsome chair under her butt.
The Song Dynasty had been using culture to control military affairs for nearly a hundred years. How could it be reversed when it came to his own fault? Yu Jing felt deeply ashamed.
What made him even more angry were the two stern military orders sent by Di Qing - one was to order him to immediately prevent the Cochin people from entering, otherwise he would be punished by military law. The other was to order the general not to go to war, otherwise he would be punished by military law.
What does military law mean? It means decapitation!
You are a common man, but a thief with military ears, yet you dare to bark like a dog in the sun!
You don’t know that the Song Dynasty did not kill scholar-bureaucrats? Let’s see how you kill me, the four remonstrators of Qingli!
"The great achievements of Pingnan should belong to me, Yu Jing. Why should I give you a thief to serve as an army?" Full of anger and jealousy, Yu Jing completely went to his head. At the banquet, he looked at the commander-in-chief of the Lingnan military, Guang Guang.
Chen Shu, armed with soldiers and horses from the two southern routes, raised his wine glass and said, "Since the Nong bandits started the rebellion, General Chen has been fighting for a hundred days, right?"
"Hui Wenshuai, it's been almost four months."
"How's the performance?"
Chen Shu said slightly proudly: "In the past four months, General Mo has led his army to fight in Guangdong and Guangxi and regained thirteen states. Now only Yongzhou is left!"
"It's a pity, it's a pity that the credit for the peace of Guangdong and Guangxi still has to be picked off by others." Qingli's four admonitions were indeed well-deserved for their venomous tongue skills.
But when he saw Chen Shu, his expression suddenly changed... Before Yu Jing arrived, he was appointed as the chief general in countering the rebellion. Because the siege of Guangzhou was successfully solved, Nong Zhigao quickly withdrew from Guangdong. Not only did he not lose his official position,
Instead, he concurrently served as the commander of the Guangnan West Road and became the first person in the Lingnan Army. Strangely enough, when he was dragging the Guangdong troops into Guangxi, Nong Zhigao began to retreat in large strides, and finally the entire army shrank.
In Yongzhou City, people around him began to praise him as a 'famous general in the world'.
It's just that this general has never fought a tough battle.
Amidst the praise from everyone, Chen Shu was a little confused... He believed that as long as he captured Yongzhou and restored Guangdong and Guangxi, the credit would fall firmly on him. Regardless of Di Qing's fame, he really didn't
Such great achievements - it can be said that whoever conquers Yongzhou will be the first in the Song Dynasty army.
Thinking of the unrivaled honor enjoyed by Di Qing, Chen Shu was filled with jealousy and sighed heavily: "He is the generalissimo, but he is obviously using his power to suppress me. What can I do?"
"His former army has just arrived in Guizhou, and you still have time to go to war." Yu Jing said quietly.
"Go to war..." Chen Shu's heart skipped a beat. It's not that he didn't have such an idea, but he was afraid of the strict military law and kept suppressing it. Now that Yu Wenshuai gave the order, his desire to strive for merit suddenly stopped.
Contained.
Chen Shu's mind was spinning rapidly. Yu Wenshuai's order was also a military order. What else did he have to worry about? As long as he won this battle and conquered Guangdong and Guangxi, he would become a national hero, and Di Qing would not dare to touch him.
Even if we can't win, it's not a big deal. Since Taizong ascended the throne, we haven't heard of military law for many years. Besides, when the time comes, Master Yu will still be responsible for his general orders. How dare Di Qing, a martial artist, refute his reputation as a super civil servant?
?
After thinking about it, Chen Shu felt that this plan was feasible. The plan was certain, and without further delay, two days later, he ordered all the troops and horses, and brought all the shrimp soldiers and crab generals who could go out into the battle, gathering together 50,000 troops and horses... known as 150,000 troops.
Attack with all your strength.
As a result, he was killed by Nong Zhigao without even seeing Yongzhou City, and fled back to Pennsylvania with the remaining defeated soldiers.
Two days later, Di Qing's army also arrived in Pennsylvania after a long march.
Before entering the city, Di Qing learned the news that the army went out to fight without permission and was defeated like a mountain. His expression was stern, without any trace of anger, but his big hand grasped the handle of the knife.
Under the city gate, the civil and military personnel who came to greet him waited and waited until they received his general order: 'The general has raised his tent, and all the civil and military personnel will meet you at the camp outside the city!'
Chen Shu was already worried, and when he saw this, he became even more timid. He looked at Yu Jing and said, "Wen Shuai..."
"Do you think that is the dragon's den or the tiger's den?" Yu Jing sneered: "What are you afraid of? I'm here for everything!"
