Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1320 Mobilizing Zhang Liao to the North
Once the Ming Dynasty is established, the harem cannot be empty.

The master of the harem, for the tens of millions of people in the southwest, needs to be the mother of the world, no matter in terms of appearance, temperament, or origin, they want the best.

Otherwise, how to win the trust of the people.

Once someone is dissatisfied with Mujing's harem, even public opinion will be dissatisfied with Mujing, the monarch.

This is the relationship between husband and wife.

It has always been a prosperity for all, and a loss for all.

This is also the reason why Mu Jing dared not push Zhang Ning up. Zhang Ning's background cannot help but be investigated. When it comes out, it may be the first scandal in the Ming Dynasty.

Especially now that there are such things as newspapers, public opinion has gradually formed. Many things have a good side, but naturally there will be a bad side.

Public opinion can be guided, but not controlled. Whoever wants to control public opinion will inevitably be backlashed by the so-called public opinion in the end. This is an inevitable result.

So even if the people nowadays are not open to people's wisdom, they are still relatively ignorant, Mu Jing dare not be careless.

"My sister was the first to join the Mufu. She is talented and famous. She is gentle and virtuous. In the past, Nanxiang guarded the city to show her masculinity. She is very suitable to be the master of the harem of the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhang Ning smiled faintly: "Perhaps no one in the world is more suitable than my sister!"

"younger sister!"

Cai Yan glanced at Zhang Ning, not knowing what to say.

In fact, she always thought that she was the third party who came in. Mujing knew Zhang Ning first, and Zhang Ning fell in love with Zhang Ning first. If it weren't for the guidance of the world, she might not be the one who joined the Mufu.

"Sister, don't worry, my sister has already seen through all these years!"

Zhang Ning said softly: "Even if my sister becomes the queen, I believe that with my sister's character, we are still a family, and this table for eating will not change!"

She is also greedy for the family's time, so she is a little jealous, which can be let go. If the family can stay together warmly, it won't matter who will be the queen.

"In the future, I will be the assistant sister and manage the harem!"

Diao Chan and Huang Yueying also expressed their opinions quickly. They entered the room as concubines, and they didn't even have a chance to fight. If they don't express their opinions at this time, what are you waiting for?

"A man's life is nothing more than power, money, and beauties!" Mu Jing looked at their pretty faces and said with a smile: "In this life, I don't know what the hegemony will be. The journey in the future must be difficult, but with you Waiting by your side, no matter whether you succeed or fail, you will have no regrets!"

Sometimes Mujing can't figure out what makes Liu Bei and other heroes abandon their wives and children, so what if they get it, if there are few people to share, and only loneliness is left, it's better to let it go.

Of course, everyone has everyone's choice.

This is the will that no one else can control.

As for Mu Jing, he was very clear about his choice. If one day, he really came to this point, he would just fight hard and live or die.

........................

The matter of establishing the country has caused waves of disturbance in the southwest, and even covered the raging Central Plains war outside.

Once the Ming Kingdom is established, the Southwest will be the people of the Ming Kingdom. This is a matter that is actually related to them. They care more about themselves than the so-called general trend of the world.

Things like the general trend of the world are only considered by the princes and kings who are in charge.

"My lord, Zhang Liao is back, and I ask for an audience!"

Mu Jing was processing several playbooks that Liu Jin sent up quickly, when he heard Jin Jiu's voice outside.

"Please come in!"

When Mu Jing heard the words, his eyes moved slightly, and he said.

"promise!"

Jin Jiu took the order, and soon a burly figure appeared in Mujing's office room, standing in front of Mujing's work, still wearing a battle armor.

"The armor hasn't been removed yet?" Mu Jing raised his head and took a look. The pen in his hand was still circled with some key points in the playbook.

"I just arrived in Yudu, I haven't had time yet!"

Zhang Liao said firmly.

"Come here, take off General Zhang's armor!" Mu Jing shouted in a low voice.

"promise!"

People from left and right personally took off Zhang Liao's armor. Wearing this armor on such a hot day is equivalent to suffering alive. After taking off the armor, he felt much easier to breathe.

"Thank you, my lord, for your compassion!" Zhang Liao cupped his hands and said.

"Sit down for a while and have a sip of tea. I'll talk to you after I finish these notebooks!" Mu Jing lowered his head, and continued to compete with the notebooks in his hand.

"promise!"

Zhang Liao nodded quickly, and sat down carefully. Someone had already served him a cup of tea. He took a sip, moistened his throat, and waited quietly.

The memorabilia in Mu Jing's hand is all from Liu Jin's secret melodies over the past few days.

Liu Jin was in charge of the secret mission of Mujing, mainly to investigate the officials of the four directions. Regarding the matter of making himself a king and the establishment of the Minghou Mansion, he did a survey of the last wishes of the officials. The reactions were mixed, and there were many people who supported him. However, some people maintained their opinions and believed that This time too anxious.

What is the opinion of the people, we need to be guided.

The morale of the army can be measured. After all, most of the soldiers are warriors. A warrior who inherits the ideas of the previous dynasty has always followed orders blindly.

The former soldiers always had a style, that is, whoever gave the money, worked for whom, and served as a soldier for food. It was more of a survival, not a belief in loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.

Even now, the quality of the soldiers has not changed much. Even the Mujun is only the initial establishment of an instructor system. It will take more than ten or twenty years of effort to form a belief in the army, and the efforts of generations. There is hope.

So in this regard, Mujing is not worried.

The opinions of the officials are fundamental. Those who can be an official are mostly scholars. If you read wisely and understand wisdom, you will involuntarily have more self-thinking.

The more they think, the more things they think about.

It is not easy to fool them.

But as long as they have enough support, there will be no internal problems. After all, the local officials rely on these local officials for their support.

However, the current situation is still very good. First of all, during the Mujing New Deal, batch after batch of officials have been replaced. Now these officials, no matter they are practical or flattering, they are all inclined to the general direction. On the aspect of the New Deal, we can stabilize our position.

Otherwise, he would have already been squeezed out of his position.

This is no joke.

Now the general trend is the New Deal, and the officials of the New Deal and one party are at the height of the sky, and Shen Mujing is highly regarded. If you stand in the way of the New Deal, you might be wiped out by them.

No matter when, those who can stand in the officialdom are not extraordinary people, who doesn't have a few brushes.

This is one point.

In addition, whether it is about taking concubines or other matters, Mu Jing has expressed that he wants to ease the relationship with Shilin, and the relationship with scholars has gradually eased.

This also made many neutral officials not have much objection to the establishment of Mujing as king and the establishment of the Ming Dynasty.

There is another reason here.

That is the influence of the big man, which has already fallen into the lowest ebb in 400 years, and has even reached a point where it doesn't matter anymore.

The 400-year heritage has been almost consumed.

At this time, not to mention that Mujing founded the country in the name of the king of the Han Dynasty, even if he established his own family, broke away from the Han Dynasty, and ruled the world separately, it is estimated that his internal influence would not be very great.

Of course, it is difficult to say in the Central Plains, Guanzhong, Central Plains, and even Hebei, the identification with the Han Dynasty is still very strong, after all, there are more scholars.

There were also objections.

For example, Jingxiang Wuzhou.

Originally, this place was rich in academics and had more scholars. At the beginning, there were many people who stood up against Mujing for Jingzhou, and many people stood up against Mujing for the New Deal.

Nowadays, for the sake of the Han Dynasty, there are quite a few people who stand up against Mujing.

At this time, Mu Jing is not afraid anymore.

It has to be said that his move of marrying Huang Yueying was indeed of great help to his rule of Jingzhou. There are many things, but there is a lack of a ladder.

For example, Sima Wei, Pang Degong, and Huang Chengyan did not intend to be enemies of the Minghou Mansion, nor did they want to block Mu Jing's journey, but they stood in their position, but they could not turn their backs on Jingzhou Shilin.

Having Huang Yueying's buffer zone is a good thing for both parties. They have a chance to step down, and Mu Jing has a reason to move them.

"Zhongheng!"

Mu Jing handed over a copy of the manuscript that had been reviewed in his hand, and said, "Quickly use the channel of Jingwu Division directly, and send it to Xiangyang as soon as possible, directly to Sima Wei!"

Founding a country is an opportunity.

He brought Sima Wei in and became a member of the Ming Kingdom. This person is capable. The worst thing is that he can contribute to the education of the Ming Kingdom by virtue of his influence alone.

"promise!"

Huo Yu, as Mu Jing's assistant to the first secretary, is the chief steward of Zhaoming Pavilion, and these matters are basically handled by him.

………………

After Mujing basically finished processing the memorabilia in his hand, he came out, walked to the bamboo mat in front, knelt down, took a sip of tea, and said to Zhang Liao, "When did you come back?" ?”

"Just arrived this morning!"

Zhang Liao said: "Walk by water, the speed is very fast, thousands of miles in a day!"

Waterway is now one of the most important transportation channels between Bashu and Jingxiang. Compared with land, it is faster and can travel day and night.

The horse will run to death, but the boat will not be tired.

"You can get away from the border, does it mean that Jiangdong has given up this time's offensive strategy?" Mu Jing asked in a low voice.

Jiangdong has changed his strategy since the matter of becoming a king came out.

Including the Battle of Changsha.

That is to say, there was an encounter. The Second Storm Bear Army and the Jiangdong Army fought a bloody battle outside Changsha City, and then the Jiangdong Army withdrew their troops. I thought that Jiangdong would transfer troops from Jiaozhou, and then Shazhou would be a bloody battle.

But unexpectedly, the matter of becoming a king came out. King Ming of the southeast and King Wu of Jiangdong.

The Jiangdong Army then withdrew its troops.

The border has been kept quiet for more than half a month, including the provocation by the Jiangdong Navy, all of them have retreated to Chaisang.

"Basically, Jiangdong should have given up!"

Zhang Liao said: "I tested it once. Jiangdong avoided fighting, and our army has already made arrangements. Next, even if Jiangdong has the heart, it is impossible to sneak attack us. This time, I came back because of the Battle of Changsha. , and come back to report!"

"What happened to the Battle of Changsha?" Mu Jing gritted his teeth, being beaten so suddenly.

"The main general of the Changsha Battle is Jiangdong Heqi!"

"He Qi?"

Mu Jing's eyes lit up.

It's a character.

"This person is not simple. He is good at surprise attacks. If it wasn't for Xu Shu's quick response, he spared no expense to mobilize the six-door arresters, and spent a lot of money to invite the young and strong in the city to defend Changsha City to the death. Soldiers, if you take the lead, you will be able to keep Changsha City, otherwise Changsha City will definitely be breached!"

Zhang Liao said in shame: "We were too careless. We always thought that Jiangdong was the best at water warfare, so it must be Jiangdong's navy who fought first, but we forgot that Jiangdong was also a fierce tiger in foot combat. They transferred troops from Jiaozhou and from Guizhou Yang came in, and as soon as he tore open the gate, he drove straight in, causing our reaction to slow down!"

"This kind of mistake can't be made in the future!" Does Mu Jing blame them very much, after all, a wise man will make a mistake if he thinks about it, how can there be such a complete person who can do all aspects.

"Yes!"

Zhang Liao nodded.

"Since you're back, don't worry about the border affairs there. Now there are many internal problems. Huang Zhong must sit in command and cannot move easily. I don't have many generals to use. Especially in Guanzhong, we are already Joining the battle, only Xi Zhicai and Huang Shao are single and weak, maybe, at any time, they will eat a bite of them, which will seriously hurt our vitality!"

This is inevitable.

Don't think that Cao Cao and Liu Bei are easy to talk to.

Even if Cao Cao and Liu Bei are staring at Hebei now, they still have the force to attack Guanzhong. Luoyang will be eaten by Mujing because of Hebei's connivance, otherwise Mujing would not have such a chance.

Whether it is Cao Cao or Liu Bei, they have troops in Hedong and Henan. If they fight, Mujing will suffer, and even Luoyang may not be able to keep it.

It mainly depends on their determination.

But neither of these two is good. If you think they are concentrating their firepower on Hebie and don't care about Luo Yang, then you are too stupid, but you will suffer a lot.

Mu Jing said: "Currently, Zhaoming's first army cannot move, and it will take time to reorganize internally. Once the war starts, the army's morale will be unstable, and the combat power will inevitably be insufficient. I have already prepared, and the remaining few that we have frozen are directly under the battle. If the battle in Guanzhong cannot be avoided, then eat it!"

"My lord, now the central and western parts of Guan belong to us. With the barrier of Tongguan, we can defend a little bit. However, if places like Hanoi and Hedong in Henan can be eaten at one bite, whether we can defend it is still a question!"

"Henan wants to eat, and Luoyang has already got it. I don't want to spit it out. He also wants to eat. The trend of going north is already obvious. Now we are stationed in Xiliang and Guanzhong. What is missing is Here in the east of the river is a place where we can gather troops together!"

Mu Jing analyzed and said: "So this time, I need you to go north!"

"What about Jiangdong?"

Zhang Liao thought about it and asked.

"Since you think that Jiangdong has little chance of going to war, with Zhuge Liang and Wenpin Zhang Yun watching, it shouldn't be a big problem!" Mu Jing said.

"When will you go north!" Zhang Liao was a decisive person, and when he heard Mujing say that, he knew there was no room left, so he asked immediately.

"The sooner the better!"

"The last general takes orders!" Zhang Liao bowed his hands and took orders.
