Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Huang Degong knew that such an army could no longer fight, so he immediately arranged to defend the camp and sent an urgent letter to Nanjing, requesting reinforcements.

As soon as this request for help arrived in Nanjing, it caused an uproar in the entire Jinling City.Unexpectedly, at the beginning of the heavy fighting, the Ming army was in a hurry all the way.That bandit army is so powerful!So scary ah ah ah!

So the two giants who were still in Nanjing called the chief officials of the Sixth Department of Nanjing for an emergency discussion, but as soon as the negotiation started, a fierce quarrel broke out between the two giants.

The Minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing believes: Since the bandit army is so powerful, let's focus on defense!Let Huang Degong find a way to withdraw his troops and defend Nanjing City.

He also believed that if reinforcements were sent, the city of Nanjing would definitely be empty.Besides, who can guarantee that after the reinforcements are sent out, the official army will be able to stop Liu Guoneng's department?In case of a defeat, that is, there will be one less official army and one support army, and the city of Nanjing will also be empty. If Jinling is taken down by the bandit army, and the tomb of Taizu will not be preserved, who will bear the responsibility?Don't steal the chicken, you can't break the rice!

And Wei Guogong Xu Hongji thought: If Huang Degong's department is withdrawn, then Liu Guoneng's bandit army will be completely freed.

At that time, Liu Guoneng's Ministry can cross the river and attack Lu Jiude's flank, completely defeating this most important mobile force in the Jiangnan area; it can also cross Chuzhou and enter Yangzhou to cut off this node on the Grand Canal.You know, autumn grain will soon be transported to the north. Is it possible to let the millions of soldiers and civilians in Beijing and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the nine sides drink the northwest wind?

The most frightening choice is to go straight to Nanjing. Whether there is an offensive and defensive battle in Nanjing, or the bandit army bypasses Nanjing and enters the Jiangnan area, it will ruin the wealth of the Ming Dynasty.Who can clean up this mess?Could it be that the imperial court should pay attention to their heads and ignore their backs, and what kind of money will they use in the future to pacify the bandits in the Central Plains and reject the barbarians outside the pass?

Wei Guogong Xu Hongji didn't say a word.In the Ming Dynasty, Nanjing was just like the city of Beijing. Because of its huge population and developed commercial activities, the city of Nanjing was no longer limited to the city walls. A large number of industries, if they are smashed by the bandits, will you pay me for it? [

In the final analysis, this is a dispute between the interests of the officials and the local nobles.

Since no one can convince anyone, let's compare the size!The Big Three in Nanjing.The guarding eunuch represents the imperial power, of course it is the greatest, but Lu Jiude is not here now, so he has to be abstained.

Don't look at Wei Guogong Xu Hongji as a super-ranked top honor, but he represents a military officer.According to the tradition of gentlemen being noble and martial being humble, the Shangshu of the Ministry of War in Nanjing had the upper hand.In addition, the chief officials of the six ministries are all civil servants.Xu Hongji also suffered a disadvantage compared to the leader, so the result of the negotiation was one-sided.

But Wei Guogong Xu Hongji will never be willing to fail, but he can't fight in the officialdom, so what should he do?So Xu Hongji immediately mobilized the masses and created public opinion, using the vast ocean of the masses to completely submerge these civil officials who wanted to be named!

So under Xu Hongji's deliberate publicity, the news immediately spread throughout Jinling City.The entire Jinling City immediately boiled.

"Brother Chaozong, is Jinling in danger?" a scholar asked Hou Fangyu in the eyebrow tower.Although the war is imminent, the entertainment activities of the scholars cannot be stopped.He really has the demeanor of a minor injury!

"Would a ten-foot-high wall not be able to stop the rebel army?" When it comes to military issues, Hou Fangyu, a "military expert" among Jinling scholars, is in high spirits. In the two invasions, grandfather and family Yan tried their best to protect them, and Wu Changjing galloped to block them, and surrounded and wiped out the bandit army twice, which made the bandit chief fearful when he heard Guide, and fought against Baohe."

While talking, Hou Fangyu talked about the great achievements of his Hou family.The scholars on the side knew that if Hou Fangyu didn't stop in time, Hou Fangyu could talk about this topic for a long time, and he could write three or five articles in the style of stereotyped essays, so they quickly interjected: "Brother Chao Zong, do you think we should Shouldn't reinforcements be sent?"

In fact, those local scholars were also very conflicted in their hearts, that is, like Wei Guogong Xu Hongji, they were afraid that their family's property would be lost if the peasant army came to the city;

"Of course we have to send!" Hou Fangyu's answer was loud and clear, "Whenever there is a big war, the generals need soldiers and food. Together, the geese are in a hurry? It's not the fault of the war, it's just "nature". It's ridiculous that I don't know how to fight, and I was deceived by the warrior. It's really..." Hou Fangyu shook his head, with a look of unfinished thought.

Of course, those scholars understood, commenting on the gains and losses of the minister of the Ministry of War in public would not do such an unwise thing for scholars who wanted to go to the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty.Hou Fangyu's half-sentence has already been said quite thoroughly.

However, those scholars were also relieved. It seemed that the situation on the front line was not that bad, so someone asked: "Since the war is in trouble, why send troops?"

Hou Fangyu despised the person who asked the question from the bottom of his heart.Isn't this simple enough?In case the battle is lost because no reinforcements are sent, won't the officials in Nanjing have to suffer?How can this kind of nerd who is dead on reading compare to the official family of the Hou family, with a long history of family education?

Of course Hou Fangyu didn't know, the reasons he analyzed were all wrong.The top officials in Nanking did have the right information.Otherwise, the Minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing, who has been in the officialdom for many years, would not have thought of Hou Fangyu, a son of an official who has not faded his hair?

However, this did not prevent Hou Fangyu from talking freely. [

Hou Fangyu maintained an unfathomable demeanor, and then said: "Just be careful! What if Mr. Huang loses a little? Besides, you didn't realize that there is a good opportunity to defeat the bandits?"

Seeing those scholars all pricked up their ears, Hou Fangyu complacently closed his mouth and acted like a fool.Li Xiangjun on the side was listening wonderfully, she couldn't bear it immediately, and urged in a crisp voice: "Young master, hurry up! My heart is itching!"

Li Xiangjun's words immediately aroused a burst of good-natured laughter.The face of the beauty still has to be given, so Hou Fangyu went on to say: "As long as the official army blocks the bandit army and puts it in a dilemma, you can let Runing Wu Changjing devote his entire army to defeat the bandit army, and then wait for the two armies to meet before smashing the bandit army. Eunuch Lu is in charge of the tigers in the capital camp, and the Wu and Zuo divisions are elite soldiers with hundreds of battles. If the three armies work together, how can the bandit army be stopped?"

Hou Fangyu said these words in high spirits, but Wu Shigong and Zuo Liangyu were both excavated by Hou Fangyu's father, so the current Hou Fangyu is also honored! (To be continued..)
