Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 1262 Restoring Ningxia (End)
"It is better to get Jibu Yinuo if you get a hundred catties of gold." - "Historical Records: Biography of Jibu Luanbu".

Throughout the ages, Ji Bu is not the only one who promises a thousand gold?High pragmatic commitment is also well-known.This point has been spread all over the world as early as his childhood in Wei Hui's feat.Borrowing 30 taels in empty talk and returning it without a penny is far more than "a hundred catties of gold". According to normal conversion, it is 3 taels of gold.

What makes people unable to say a word of doubt is that he borrowed the 30 taels at that time for the relief of the victims, not for personal gain.Even if it was later discovered that Gao Yushi spent the 30 taels without suffering a loss at all, it can only be said that he managed it properly.

Even a rebel general who had long thought that he had committed a sin of treason could not help but be moved by the remarks made by such a well-known and dignified court official.

Maybe this is really a lifeline?

Everyone can see the current situation in Ningxia. Although Dabai has always boasted that Ningxia's city defense is indestructible, everyone is a military commander. A dead end.

Is the army capable of besieging the city for a long time?The answer seems to be self-evident, the huge Daming certainly has such ability.

Even if everyone knew that the imperial court was short of money, everyone knew that the lack of money in the imperial court was caused by the opening of the ban.Who is more important to open the ban and rebellion?Obviously everyone thinks that it must be more important to suppress the rebellion, so if the court is really forced to help, in fact, as long as the ban on feudalism is suspended, or the scheduled completion time is greatly extended from three years, it is absolutely possible to squeeze out money for long-term siege of the city.

Since the imperial court has the ability to besiege the city for a long time, it also means that Ningxia will be finished sooner or later, and the father and son will become losers sooner or later.As for their so-called "waiting for the world to change", most of the generals are now not optimistic.

This truth is actually obvious. The reason why the original reason for the worship to persuade them seems to be sufficient. The key lies in the bright prospects that Burihatu specially outlined: Chahar cleans up Tumet; Ordos helps Ningxia stabilize the situation, both sides Waiting for the opportunity to divide Shaanxi; Huoluochi brothers annexed Gansu, connecting Qinghai, Gansu, and Songshan into one.

According to this grand blueprint of Burihatu, the four families can work together to surround the west and north sides of Daming in the future, basically forming the situation when the Mongolian Empire rose.Once such a great cause is completed, not only the achievements of the Great Khan of Tumen will catch up with Genghis Khan, but even Boshuoketu, Dabai, Huo Luochi and others, which one is not the Great Khan?It is not impossible to rebuild the new "Four Khanates"...

I have to say that Burihatu's agitation ability is indeed very strong, and I believe that this prospect is completely promising and has always believed in it.

But what about the fact?The generals in Ningxia really returned some hope at the beginning, but unfortunately the reality was too cruel, and the original plan was shattered with a short battle of Huri Huliang.In the blueprint of Burihatu, the main force of the Ordos Department's sweat tent, which was at the pivot position, was defeated by the Ming army - of course, the Ming and Mongolian coalition forces - and even Boshuoktujinong himself was killed on the spot. captured.

Immediately afterwards, the Ordos Department changed its body and became an accomplice of the Ming army. It turned its guns and started to attack Tu Wenxiu.

There's a fart hope for this?No matter how optimistic the estimate is, it seems that there is only one possibility to reverse the trend, and that is to take advantage of the Tumen Great Khan to quickly launch a large-scale western expedition, defeating Tu Mo with lightning speed. In particular, the entire situation in right-wing Mongolia has been completely reversed.Otherwise, all grand plans and hegemony will be nothing more than a mirror image, and there is no possibility of realizing it.

Of course, maybe we can count on Huo Luochi and Shilitu brothers. I hope they can defeat Tuotuo and Ilduqi by taking the advantage of waiting for work. If this is the case, the situation in Ningxia will probably be stable for a while. .

Perhaps it was because the Tumen and Huoluochi brothers hadn't given up completely. Although all the generals in Ningxia had received a letter--in fact, it might be a letter of persuasion to surrender--no one acted immediately, and they just kept in touch with each other quietly. , and what was said specifically, outsiders simply do not know.

However, the actions of the generals alarmed the father and son, and they began to worry about their own safety.

Gao pragmatic's statement actually means very simple, it is a typical "only punish the first evil, the rest will not be punished", but unfortunately for the father and son, this attitude is like a reminder, because the two of them are the "first evil" defined by Gao pragmatic. ".All the generals have their way back, but only their father and son have no way to retreat, behind is the abyss, and they can only go one way to the dark.

However, the father and son only found out that their views were actually the opposite.

Kuaibai thinks that although the generals have a way out, he is very good at attracting them, as long as there is no bad news from the Tumen Khan and the Huoluochi brothers - just like the capture of Boshuoketu That kind of - then for a while, they will not listen to the deceit of high and pragmatic, and turn to the official army.

Therefore, even if the position of the generals is shaken, it is not yet time to "clear the door".After all, at this time, Gao pragmatic has tens of thousands of troops outside. If there is such an internal turmoil, it will be very dangerous. This kind of civil strife may be used by Gao pragmatic.

On the other hand, Yan Chengen's attitude was just the opposite. He believed that since Gao pragmatically dispatched troops, the officers and troops had gone too smoothly.In particular, after the main force of Boshuoktu Khan, the closest and strongest reinforcement to Ningxia, was defeated by the official army and instead became the lackey of the Ming court, the confidence in their father and son will definitely be greatly shaken. It is impossible to conclude at this moment. Zhu will not be tempted by the high and pragmatic letter of persuasion, and take risks to do "big things".

Therefore, Chen Chengen insists on preemptive strikes. Even if considering the current enemy, there should not be too much internal turmoil, then at the very least, there should be a warning, and the head of a general should be used to warn the rest of the generals and let them know How serious the consequences of betraying the family are.

After listening to his son's opinion, Dabai fell into a dilemma.What Chengen said is not unreasonable, especially for a military group, if the rebellion is not contained in time, the consequences will sometimes become unimaginable.

However, he believed that he knew the intention of Gao pragmatism very well. He must have wanted to make civil strife in the city of Ningxia, and then took the opportunity to violently attack the city and seize Ningxia in one fell swoop.

If I act as a warning to the monkeys as my son hopes, it will be fine if it goes well. If there is a little accident, the Gao pragmatism outside the city will definitely fan the flames and cause civil unrest to break out, and it will no longer be out of control.At that time, he can directly reap the benefits of the fisherman without even having to attack the city.

It is good to kill chickens to warn the monkeys, but at this moment, it is really difficult to control the fire.

After thinking about it, Xie Bai still rejected his son's proposal, but he still gave a suggestion, saying to wait and see, to see the result of the battle between brothers Huoluochi and Tuotuo and Ilduqi, and also look at Tumen. Will the Great Khan send troops?

Yan Chengen was not satisfied, and after asking for a while, Yan Bai had to tell him more clearly, that the Tumen Khans were far away, and when I learned that the news might be delayed, then it would depend on Brother Huoluochi's performance.If the Huoluochi brothers are defeated, we will immediately kill the chickens and show the monkeys, lest Gao pragmatically use this victory to continue to coerce and lure the generals.

Yan Chengen reluctantly accepted this statement and returned to his residence with a sullen face.

Only when he returned to his own house, did Chengen know that there was a guest.This guest Zhang Chengen had never met, but he had heard of his name - none other than Zhou Zhe, who once defended against the rebels in Ningxia Zhongwei.

Yan Chengen was angry when he heard it, and he wanted to kill Zhou Zhe on the spot, but Zhou Zhe laughed and said, "I came to save you, but you want to kill me, it's really a strange story in the world."

Chen Chengen's heart moved when he heard it, and he asked Cangtou Jun's family to move slowly and said coldly: "My family has an army of more than [-] people, even Li Yincheng in Tieling is far behind, He Xuer and Cao help!"

Zhou Zhe laughed and said: "Li Yincheng's military exploits are the head of the border marshals of this dynasty. How noble is his status and status, can it be compared to your generation's rebelliousness? Your generation claims to have a large number of troops, not to mention the so-called more than ten. How much of the Wan army is true, so let me ask you: in this army, how much do you have in your family and how many generals do you have?"

Chen Chengen's heart froze, but his face became colder and colder, and he snorted softly: "My family has extended kindness to the generals, and the soldiers of the generals are the soldiers of my family."

Zhou Zhe sighed: "In this case, the heads of tomorrow's Er and others should hang high above the head of Ningxia city... What a pity, what a pity! It's a pity that Gao Shutai originally thought that your father and son were also detained because of military pay, and the military's morale was unstable. I had to do such a thing, and being killed like this is a waste of my ability..."

Chen Chengen felt chills in his heart, and the generals flashed in his mind, and asked, "Gao Shutai... What do you mean by that?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth." Zhou Zhe spread his hands: "Gao Shutai sent many lobbyists to come to Ningxia city to lobby, but the students are only one of them, and because they are old and infirm, they come the slowest... , I wonder if the rest of the generals can tell you this time?"

Yan Chengen's complexion changed greatly, and he quickly asked, "You said that other people have already had lobbyists there?"

Zhou Zhe didn't answer, but laughed instead: "It seems that no one told you... Alas, it seems that you can't keep your handsome head."

Duan Chengen was a cold-hearted person, and when he heard this, he became furious, and said bitterly: "I already knew that these bastards were unreliable! I have not turned over any of the written documents, and it can be said to be calm, but The government went to a lobbyist, but no one reported it, I really thought that I would not dare to kill!"

Zhou Zhe curled his lips and said, "What's the use of killing people at random? Even if you kill Liu Dongyang or Xu Chao, will the rest of you be frightened? Don't even think about it. Qi, Taihuhan, and 8 men from the three routes went to encircle Huoluochi and focus on the two rabbits. Will they still come? As for Tumen, how dare he send troops to the west if he doesn't take down Daning? Chahan Is Hote gone?

And what about my army?In addition to the [-]-[-] troops on the three sides of Shaanxi, there were also tens of thousands of reinforcements from Shanxi and [-] from Sichuan. The total was at least twice that of Ningxia, and they were all elites from various towns, not the rabble who were temporarily recruited in Ningxia.

Under such circumstances, who can save Ningxia Gucheng?Since no one can save them, who would not plan for themselves among the generals in the city, unite and sell your father and son, and change the court's past, and even become rich for a lifetime, wouldn't it be good? "

Yan Chengen's face changed greatly, his breathing was heavy, and he asked after a while, "Gao Wu... How does Gao Shutai plan to treat me?"

Zhou Zhe was stunned when he heard it, and suddenly discovered a key point: Chen Chengen didn't mention his prayers, he just asked himself.

"Gao Shutai said..." Zhou Zhe said slowly: "Whoever opens the city first and asks for surrender will be regarded as the first merit. If there is an action to kill the enemy and fight for points in the city, the merit will be added one level. On the emperor's side, Gao Shutai can guarantee that he will be punished for his merits, not only will he not cause harm, but also reward his merits.”

Chen Chengen rolled his eyes and asked, "How to reward?" He reminded: "Although my father and son don't have an army of more than [-], they also have [-]."

Zhou Zhe said indifferently: "The hereditary general soldier of Ningxia."

Yan Chengen was overjoyed at first, and then a little disbelieving, he doubted: "I never heard that the general army can also be hereditary."

Zhou Zhe shook his head and said, "Why not, isn't Duke Qian a hereditary military commander in Yunnan?"

Chen Chengen opened his eyes wide and said incredulously: "Gao Shutai can make my father and son of the family be the same as Duke Qian? I don't ask him if he can..."

"You want to know why he did this, don't you?" Zhou Zhe smiled and shook his head: "What's the doubt? Daming has only one enemy right now, and that is Tumen. As long as Tumen can be eliminated, Daming will No worries. Compared to this, Ningxia, a mere world town, is nothing. Do you think the emperor would care? Besides, the general army of Ningxia gave you a hereditary inheritance from your father and son, just according to the old system in Yunnan, and it has nothing to do with the civil service, Gao Shu Why do you need to be stingy?"

Chen Chengen was overjoyed, he patted his chest and agreed, and by the way, he showed his loyalty, saying: "If this is the case, if Gao Shutai goes to Chahar in the future, my family will invite you to be the vanguard, and pay Gao Shutai this kindness. !"

Zhou Zhe smiled, responded generously, and reminded: "This matter is already on the line. If the 'those people' take the lead, I didn't say these words just now..."

A murderous intent flashed in the eagle-like eyes of Yan Chengen, and he nodded slowly: "Since they are not benevolent, don't blame me for being unjust, Mr. Zhou can sit in my house for a while, and I will go and get things done quickly. already."

Zhou Zhe shook his head and said, "I don't want to sit anymore. I have to quickly inform Shutai of the news here, or Shutai still doesn't know who is the loyal minister and good general."

Upon hearing this, Yan Chengen hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, this matter really can't be delayed, then there is Mr. Lao Zhou."

Zhou Zhe smiled and got up to say goodbye: "The general is busy with the military, so I won't go far. In the future, there is still time for students in Ningxia to come to the general's house to ask for help... farewell."

Chen Chengen said politely, and when Zhou Zhe left, he took a deep breath and said to the servants beside him: "Go, mobilize the Cangtou Army and the headquarters in Ningxia, and say that I have been secretly ordered by my father, and I have important things to do right away. "

PS: Control the space. The matter of how Chengen killed Ningxia's non-direct line generals is basically left blank. In tomorrow's chapter, we will only briefly explain, and we will immediately enter the follow-up aftermath.
