Qiming 1158

Chapter 1275 This battle is to be fought

After reading all the relevant information, Xin Qiji expressed his support for Su Yonglin's opinion.

"From the intelligence point of view, this is indeed the case. The main credit for the establishment of the Chengdu court is to be attributed to the military forces led by foreign officials headed by Ma Yongkang and foreign soldiers headed by Wu Lin.

Without the support of these two forces, Zhao Bunyi would never become an emperor, and it would be impossible for Chuanshu to establish a court of its own. Local officials in Chuanshu prefer to protect their own interests, rather than provide a local emperor to fight against the Ming Dynasty. and the resources of Jiangnan.

It was difficult for these two forces to cooperate from the very beginning. The face and heart were not in harmony. The local forces in Sichuan and Shu were mainly intimidated by Wu Lin's prestige and his military strength, as well as the Chengdu court's transfer of political power and status, so they chose to support. Chengdu court.

However, the occurrence of the Sichuan-Shu peasant uprising and the collapse of Jiaozi can be said to have completely destroyed the foundation of cooperation between foreigners and locals. In addition, Zhao Buyi's unbelievable actions may be completely exacerbated this contradiction. "

Su Yonglin nodded.

"Comrade You'an is right, I would like to add that the military forces formed by the four armies headed by Lu Chao and other four people are likely to show signs of localization and warlordization.

Although the information is not clear, I think that since Ma Yongkang and Wu Ting decided to launch a mutiny, there are obviously these reasons. The overthrow of Zhao Buxi is because they can't stand Zhao Buxi's madness, and the liquidation of the local faction is obviously because of them I can't stand this threat.

Zhao Buxi's madness led Lu Chao and the other four to decide to break with the Chengdu court, and they lost the support of the Chengdu court's food and salaries. If the warlord-like army wants to survive and maintain food and grass, it must choose localization, and must choose local forces. Cooperation. "

Su Yonglin's opinion and Xin Qiji's opinion are combined together to form a logical and careful inference, this inference is in line with most people's views on this matter, so soon, this late-night meeting in the middle of the night will be decided for this matter. set a tone.

That is, the forces outside Sichuan and Shu, headed by Ma Yongkang and Wu Ting, really want to surrender to the Ming Kingdom and use the powerful military power of the Ming Kingdom to survive.

Otherwise, they will surely die.

So, Su Yonglin came to a conclusion.

Time does not wait for me, this battle is to be fought.

"If the local storage in Guanzhong is not enough, it will be dispatched from Hedong and Datong provinces. Not to mention the rest, Su Haisheng should immediately discuss the surrender with Wu Gong, and determine the occupation of all the transportation routes and military fortresses in the northern Sichuan area as soon as possible. , this is the premise of everything!"

So the staff headquarters issued an order, Su Yonglin personally signed and sealed, conveyed important orders to Su Haisheng, and gave him the power to arbitrarily.

How to cooperate with Wu Gong, how to determine Wu Gong's sincerity, etc., these must be left to Su Haisheng to judge and deal with.

The Chuan-Shu strategy plan has been deduced many times on the sand table of the staff headquarters for a long time, and this time, it was an unexpected practical operation.

Accidents always come faster than tomorrow. If the opportunity is right in front of you, you must seize it vigorously!
Just one day after this order was quickly passed, the news of the Chuanshu branch was also sent to Zhongdu. Su Yonglin was quite emotional after reading it.

It turns out that Xu Tong, through his intelligence analysis, believes that the situation in Sichuan and Sichuan has undergone major changes. If the previous established strategy is continued, there will be a lot of uncertainty. This kind of uncertainty is not recommended by Xu Tong. .

Therefore, Xu Tong hoped that Su Yonglin's next decision would be to let the Qilu Corps leave the field ahead of schedule, act in advance, and make a final decision before Sichuan and Shu entered the Warring States Period.

"Xu Tong, this kid still sees clearly and has a strategic vision. He is quite right, You'an, I don't think it will be many years before he can even be introduced from the front-line army and come to the staff headquarters. Already working."

"People with a strategic vision should really stand higher and do longer-term things."

Xin Qiji, who was standing beside Su Yonglin, was very amused by this and said with a smile, "Such talents can be encountered but not sought after, and it is difficult to cultivate them, mainly relying on innateness. In fact, the more wars I fight, the more I realize. It really depends on talent for a lot of things.”

Su Yonglin sighed.

"Yeah, diligence can make up for clumsiness, but not talent. There are some things that really cannot help but believe in the word "talent." already."

"It is important to have talented people, but at the national level, an excellent execution system is the most important decisive factor. Compared with a single genius, I think there are thousands of people who have received strict education and training. Executors who carry out court orders are more important."

Xin Qiji smiled and said: "And this has very high requirements for our education, which requires me to invest a lot of money and energy. Of course, even a genius must be educated, otherwise how can you find your own? Where is the genius?"

"It makes sense."

Su Yonglin smiled: "So, education is really a very important thing."

Xin Qiji heard the words, thought for a while, weighed it, and then slowly spoke.

"Since education is very important, why did I hear that you rejected the education popularization plan proposed by the Faculty? This is a very good plan, and it is based on the method you proposed at the previous meeting that everyone agreed upon. Certainly."

Su Yonglin turned to look at Xin Qiji.

"You know that too?"

"It's spread all over the imperial court, and many people don't understand your idea. It is clear that you have always regarded education as very important. No matter how difficult it is in the imperial court, there must be a literacy class, and the public must be able to read and write. .

However, this plan is obviously beneficial to the country and the people. It can cultivate a large number of outstanding talents, and can make people display their talents and talents, so that there is no shortage of talents in Daming. Why do you have to reject it? "

"Well, I plan to explain it at the next meeting. There are indeed many people who don't understand, but I think I'm right."

Su Yonglin said slowly: "Many people only see the benefits of popularizing education, but don't see the disadvantages. In the long run, universal education is inevitable, but the department's plan is to complete it within ten years.

It is the three-level popularization plan that I finally set up. This kind of action is too radical. I must stop it, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous, not only bad for the country, but also very bad for the children who have been raised. "

"This...I don't understand."

Xin Qiji whispered: "What do you think? Letting young people and school-age children read and write is not a bad thing, right? You often say that education is the foundation of the country, isn't this what you want?"

"It's not a bad thing in itself, but all the things in this world are linked together, and things related to the country can affect the whole body. Do you still remember Yuan and Song Jun's defeat of Shuichuan?"

"remember."

"Zhang Yuan is a native of Song and a scholar of the imperial examination. Why did he betray Song and turn to Li Yuanhao?"

"Of course I was disappointed in the imperial examinations, had no way to serve the country, and held my own talents, so... so..."

Xin Qiji was stunned, and before he finished speaking, he looked at Su Yonglin in a little astonishment.

Ten years of popularization, education popularized, Su Yonglin stopped, Zhang Yuan surrendered to the enemy...

Xin Qiji's brain turned quickly, linked these things together, and came to a conclusion that surprised him.
