Sword Stirs the World

In the Jinluan hall, Emperor Chongzhen leaned back against the Dragon chair and closed his eyes.

His face was a little pale, his brows a little more melancholy, his cheeks were covered with fine wrinkles, he was not old, but he was old and tired.

After listening to the report of the Ministry of war, Emperor Chongzhen was silent for a long time, which made the atmosphere of the Jinluan palace more dignified.

"Ah Jiu, according to you, Wuzhou has already fallen. Is it your royal guards who are supporting the final situation?" Emperor Chongzhen frowned.

The ninth princess, dressed in a vermilion official robe, first glanced around the circle of ministers, then said in a crisp voice: "it's true to report back to your father! LAN Mingyu, the governor of Wuzhou, was rebelled by the Nuzhen people and offered the city secretly. He was killed by the royal guards under my command. Together with him, Yin Brody, the national teacher of the Nuzhen people, and two Wanfu commanders were killed on the spot. "

"Oh? Did the national master of the Nuzhen also kill him? " Emperor Chongzhen was slightly surprised and asked.

Nine princesses quickly report a way: "father emperor, the Nu Zhen clan has eight Zhen Guo Xian Shi, that Yin Brodie is really one of them."

"Oh! There are eight Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said.

"I gave the royal guards to you. You did a good job! The national master and commander Wan of the Nuzhen nationality can be killed. We can see that the tiger power of the Ming royal guards is still there! " Chongzhen emperor's face finally showed a rare smile.

"My father, now Wuzhou City is besieged by the army of Nuzhen, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city are in danger. Please order to send troops to relieve the siege of Wuzhou." Nine Princess highness strike while the iron is hot.

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, then asked the officials below, "Taifu, what do you mean?"

Taifu Li Chengliang was the first person in the military of the Ming Dynasty. In military affairs, his opinions are absolutely the most important, and no one dares to ignore them.

Li Chengliang, the Taifu, stepped out of the ranks of ministers, bowed his body, and said faintly: "tell your majesty, Wuzhou is the gateway of Southern Xinjiang, and you must not lose it! However, this time is not the best time to reinforce Wuzhou. "

"Oh? What's Taifu's point of view? " Emperor Chongzhen's brows were slightly extended. Every time he saw Li Taifu speak, he would feel that he was not sure.

Li Chengliang nodded and said in a loud voice, "Jurchen has come on a large scale. She is very aggressive, and she is secretly planning to rebel and alienate. It can be seen that this is not just for plunder, but for long-term occupation of the southern border of Ming Dynasty. "

"According to this idea, if I were the commander-in-chief of the Nuzhen people, I would encircle Wuzhou City but not attack Wuzhou City, attract Daming reinforcements, encircle the sites to help, maximize the mobility of the Nuzhen cavalry, and defeat every Daming army that came to help."

"Every additional effective force of the Daming army is a safe addition to Nuzhen's rule in southern Xinjiang." Li Chengliang is very eloquent.

All the civil and military officials around were shocked by this remark.

"Is it true that Taifu doesn't need to rescue Wuzhou City?" The Minister of the Ministry of war was full of consternation and couldn't help saying.

"No! Wuzhou City is the gateway of Southern Xinjiang. Without Wuzhou City, southern Xinjiang of Ming Dynasty will fall into the enemy's hands, and the situation will only become more and more passive. " Li Chengliang said faintly.

Emperor Chongzhen quietly listened to the comments of the ministers below, and his frowning eyebrows became a knot unconsciously.

"Taifu, in your opinion, what should we do in Wuzhou?" Emperor Chongzhen finally couldn't help it and asked in a deep voice.

Li Chengliang, Taifu, nodded and said, "first of all, we must not send troops to rescue Wuzhou City according to the rhythm of the Nuzhen people, because it's just a fire and oil, it doesn't help."

"Then, Wuzhou City is not without rescue, it is not yet the time. At present, Wuzhou City will not be broken, because the Nuzhen people still need to rely on it to attract reinforcements, so I will let the border forces out of the posture of rescuing Wuzhou, but in fact, they will hold still and wait for the consumption of the Nuzhen people. "

Li Chengliang's words made many ministers nod their heads.

Instead of risking sending troops to rescue, it is better to wait for the best time. After all, fighting is not a joke. If the Nuzhen army stays outside Wuzhou for one more day, it will consume one more day's food and grass. Only by then can it win safely.

Only the ninth princess, young and vigorous, dared to challenge the authority of the military God. She coughed twice and arched her hand and said, "Taifu, if you don't care, Wuzhou City will be broken and the whole situation in southern Xinjiang will be passive, we will still be unable to continue."

Li Chengliang nodded and said, "not bad! The frontier army can't move, but Wuzhou city must be saved! And if we can make use of Wuzhou City to consume the Nuzhen army to the maximum, we will have a chance to drive it out of Southern Xinjiang at one stroke. "

"Therefore, I think that we should send an elite team to Wuzhou City, expand Wuzhou city defense, and hold up the Nuzhen army for one more day, so that we have a better chance of winning in southern Xinjiang." Li Chengliang resolutely said,

This statement, even the nine princesses did not speak, because the presence of all officials and officials have already heard that, too much Fu Li Chengliang, this is to take the city of Wuzhou and the cost of this eccentric, in the way of changing the son of the Nu Zhen army expelled from the southern Xinjiang.

If this strategy is carried out, it means that Wuzhou City will not have a real sense of reinforcements. The deviant troops who break the whole into parts and sneak into Wuzhou City will bear the most fierce attack of Nuzhen people together with Wuzhou City.

When the Nuzhen found out Daming's strategy and no longer believed that reinforcements would come, it was time for them to attack Wuzhou City.

Maybe Wuzhou City will not fall into the hands of the Nuzhen people in the end, but the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in this city, I'm afraid that few people will survive this battle.

"According to Taifu, which army can sneak into Wuzhou to share my worries?" When Emperor Chongzhen said this, he basically agreed with Taifu's strategy and began to consider the candidates.

After emperor Chongzhen finished speaking, the officials below looked around one after another, especially the ranks of the generals, who were afraid to look up.

Leading the troops to sneak into Wuzhou City is absolutely a matter of near death. The fighting power of the Nuzhen nationality is unparalleled in the world. Who dares to smooth its edge?

Taifu Li Chengliang was silent. His eyes quickly swept over the generals in front of the hall. Seeing that they all looked like turtles, he had to sigh in his heart.

Since ancient times, it has been said that civil servants do not love money, and military generals do not spare their lives to make the world peaceful.

These generals in front of the hall are all powerful, but they are as timid as a mouse. They are really useless.

"In return to the emperor, this army is not expensive. It requires everyone to be proficient in martial arts, flexible in changes, and the most important thing is loyalty. Only the most loyal warrior is qualified to undertake this important task."

When Li Chengliang spoke, descendants of royal families could not help but look at the royal highness of the nine princesses of the royal family.

Nine the princess's royal highness and Li Chengliang's eyes touched each other immediately, and they understood each other's meaning immediately.

Sometimes, there is no need to communicate with each other in advance. As long as everyone knows their position, they will stand up when they should.

"My father, the royal guards under my children's ministers, can shoulder this heavy responsibility!" Nine the royal highness of the princess's resolute voice.
