Jinyi Night Walk

Xu Jingchang nodded, the son of the general, even if he has never fought a war, he can still understand this sentence.Wenwang>

The three of them sat down again, and Xu Jingchang said: "Duke Fu took the initiative to invite the battle this time, which was indeed beyond the expectations of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. I foolishly thought that it was a bit reckless. The Japanese bandits are difficult to deal with, and the difficulty lies in them. The best protection is to go directly to their lairs, but their lairs are all on the islands near Japan. At most, my Ming Navy has experience in offshore warfare. It’s just that the war itself is so simple, if the command is wrong, even with the full support of the emperor, I’m afraid it will be a feather. The one who defeats the Duke may not be the Japanese pirates, it may also be a natural disaster!”

Xia Xun led the leader and said: "Mr. Dingguo's golden and jade words, Yang will always remember them in his heart. However, I have thought carefully about this call for battle. What I want now is to ensure that my army can work together and be monolithic. There will be no internal problems. Only then can I consider external issues, otherwise, this battle is really unnecessary and will definitely be defeated!"

Ming'er gave him a fat look, and said: "Chizhong is my father's old department, and my third brother is also inseparable, you don't have to worry here, when he arrives in the capital, let Jingchang come forward to host a banquet and help you get acquainted. After all, if you want him to command the entire army for you, if he fails, it will be of no benefit to him, with personal interests, plus my Xu family's relationship, there will be no major problems for Chizhong."

Xu Jingchang also nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Fu, I will do my best to help. As for the Yu family in Chaohu, what is Mr. Guo's plan?"

Xia Xun said: "The Yu family in Chaohu has no choice but to wait for their people to enter Beijing before making contact. I think that since the Yu family is unique in the court, it has never had anything to do with officials from other factions. As long as I treat them with sincerity, It will not be a big problem to think about it. They are from a family of naval masters, and they must cherish their feathers. If they lose the battle, what good is the reputation of the Yu family?"

Xu Jingchang shook his head: "Master, you are wrong to say that. You don't need to worry about Chizhong. The Yu family is the one you should focus on winning over. Don't think that the Yu family is not involved in the affairs of the court. I, the Great Ming Navy, started from the Yu family. If the Yu family is willing to use it for you, there will not be many people who dare to make trouble in the navy. If the Yu family refuses to accept you, hehe, there is no need to intentionally mess with you. , Commanding a fleet that doesn’t move is enough for you to have a headache.”

Xia Xun moved and asked hastily: "How do you say this? To tell you the truth, Yang does not have much experience in the army, and he didn't know about it before. If you have any questions, please ask Mr. Ding. dot.r>

Xu Jingchang saw that he really didn't know anything about the Yu family, so he explained: "That's right, the reason why the Yu family is rarely talked about is because members of the Yu family have never served in the court. The status and power of the Yu family are very important. big.

At that time, Yu's father and son led the dead to defect to Taizu. Afterwards, they fought in Chaohu, Zhanheyang, Zhanyuxikou, and Anyuzhou. , Louchuan, and then defeated Huai Shuai Chen Yexian with 20 people in Luzhai, Fangshan, and made a plan to take Jinling. Taizu then opened the base Jiangzuo based on this. No one can match this kind of credit.

After the founding of Taizu, Yu Tingyu, who had already died in battle, was posthumously named the Duke of Hejian County. His three sons, Yu Tonghai, Yu Tongyuan, and Yu Tongyuan, were named Duke of Guoguo, Marquis of Nan'an, and Marquis of Yuesong respectively. .A family of four fathers and sons, a hereditary powerful family of two princes and two lords, this kind of honor has been rare since ancient times, and this kind of grace cage is no less than my Xu family.

Fuguogong, you are not an outsider. If you say something offensive, I am afraid that you, Fuguogong and the title of governor of the five provinces will not be able to restrain them.Of course, they may not embarrass you, but precisely because they do not belong to any faction, and they do not need to sell the face of any faction, once there is a failure to mobilize, it will definitely affect your prestige, and the general will be weak. No, the order will not work..." The consequences can be imagined."

As soon as Xia Xun heard it, he knew that today's trip was not in vain. If he hadn't got the news early and found out the problem after going out to sea, there would be a big problem.

He already understood Xu Jingchang's words. He was saying that although the Xu family was the first family of heroes of the Ming Dynasty, the Xu family did not rule the world. On the water, the Yu family was the well-deserved first family.It's as if the Xu family is the marshal of the army, while the Yu family is the marshal of the navy, and both families are founding fathers, so it can't be said who is superior and who is inferior.

Moreover, due to the particularity of the Yu family, almost all the disciples, old friends, subordinates, and entourages of the Yu family are concentrated in the Chaohu Navy, forming an independent kingdom of its own, impenetrable by knives and water.It is not a problem for the emperor to send the members of the Yu family to fight alone, but it is very difficult to transfer the members of the Yu family to obey the orders of his assistant Duke Yang Xu.

This problem is not limited to the ancient times, even in the modern army, both the discipline and the ideological quality of the army have been greatly improved. , A general with a high status, he will instinctively resist emotionally, he does not need any specific purpose, and it is enough to disobey you.

What's more, the power of the Yu family, such an old family of founding fathers, a new aristocrat, can he hold it down?

This is what Xia Xun is worried about. He is not worried about the constraints of the court. He has the supreme command of the five coastal provinces, the support of the emperor, and the prestige of life and death. He is the eldest prince Zhu Gaochi's man, and the second prince Zhu Gaoxu's faction will not make a fuss about this matter even if they want to kill him one by one, otherwise, if there is a handle in the hands of the emperor, they will make mistakes again and again. I can't turn over.

What Xia Xun was most worried about was the army. He originally thought that the little-known Yu family had nothing to do with the factions in the court and would be easy to deal with, but unexpectedly, it was the most difficult to deal with.The reason why the Yu family has nothing to do with the various factions in the court is not because they are not powerful enough, on the contrary, the Yu family is an independent faction, which is indeed a difficult problem.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Jingchang mentioned another matter that caused him even more headaches.

"Hey, Fu Guogong, there is one more thing, I think you don't know. When the current sage was in trouble, there was a big battle in Baigou River. The battle was extremely tragic. Several generals were lost in the court. Among them was a general , is Yu Tonghai.

Xia Xun was startled, and lost his voice: "Is there such a thing?"

Xu Jingchang said: "That's right, Yu Tingyu died in battle when he followed Taizu to conquer the world. Among the three sons, Yu Tonghai, Duke of Guoguo, and Yu Tongyuan, Marquis of Nan'an, are dead now. Among them, the old Sanyue Songhou Yu Tongyuan was the only one left, and he died in the battle of Baigou River, at the hands of the emperor's Jingnan army.

At that time, each was their own master, and the Yu family would not resent the emperor because of this, but after all, Yu Tongyuan is the oldest member of the Yu family, and it has only been three or two years since the incident happened. It is inevitable that the heroes of the army will have a grudge, and then the officials of the Jingnan hero department will command them..." Fu Guogong, the Yu family is brothers in battle, father and son soldiers in battle, and the relationship between the generals and the school in the army is no better than that of Yu Yu. If you use this army well, it will be your most handy force, if you don’t use it well, it will backfire.”

He looked at Yang Xu with a wry smile, and asked, "Duke, who gave you such a bad idea? It's not good to choose anyone, but the Yu family."

Ming'er's pretty face blushed, and her big eyes gave the ignorant Xu Jingchang a hard look: "So, your aunt, I'll settle the score with you later!" Then she stared at Xia without blinking. Xun.

Xia Xun's expression straightened, and he said solemnly: "The person who advised me is smart, cunning, and wise. Duke Ding also said just now that this army will be my greatest help if used well. It can be seen that choosing Yu There is nothing wrong with everyone, as for the various difficulties, I think, maybe this wise man deliberately tested me, if I can't even solve these difficulties, how can I solve the great Ming disease, the Japanese pirates in the East China Sea?"

Halfway through Xia Xun's speech, Ming'er was already smiling like a flower. Who doesn't like compliments from his sweetheart?

Although Ming'er is young, due to her different family background and status, her starting point is higher than that of ordinary girls. If you praise her for her unparalleled beauty and gentle temperament, which are the things that ordinary girls like to hear most, she may not be happy, but praise her for her outstanding learning and strategy. Superman, even a proud girl like her likes it from the bottom of her heart.

Especially..., he complimented himself in front of his own face, covering his stupid nephew..." "This big liar is cheating again, huh... "This time, it felt sweet.

Xu Jingchang said: "Well, Jingchang naturally believes in the Duke's ability, but I'm worried that time waits for no one!"

Xu Jingchang is now also a member of the eldest prince Zhu Gaochi's faction. He is close to Yang Xu, and now he doesn't need to be afraid. Everyone knows that I could have asked the eldest prince to revise a letter, but the identity of the eldest prince has not been determined, and he has not even seen much advantage in the competition with the second prince, so I am afraid that if the eldest prince comes forward, it will be self-defeating."

"Hey, there are some things where it's inconvenient for a man to come forward, but it's actually more appropriate for a woman! I'm feeling bored in Beijing and want to go for a walk, why don't you let me accompany the Duke to live in Chaohu!"

The sweetheart defends himself so much, so he can't make him anxious anymore, he is already older than himself, and his hair is grey, so standing together will become..." Besides, Ming'er already had this idea when he first offered the proposal. For private use, she intends to be with her sweetheart justly. So Ming'er stood up...to stand up.

"Auntie?" Xu Jingchang said in surprise, "Auntie, you are a daughter's family, how do you deal with those arrogant men of the Yu family?"

Xu Ming'er smiled and said, "Who said I'm going to meet a man?".Brothers and sisters, the more recommended monthly tickets, the better, please support! (To be continued.
