Qiming 1158

Chapter 869 From this, it can be seen that the Ming Guozuo will not be too long

Although it is a taboo thing to deceive the emperor, but the bureaucrat has never done anything to deceive the top and the bottom?

Zhang Jun quickly found a reasonable explanation for himself, and let himself cross this psychological barrier line with peace of mind.

So the matter was decided.

After this hurdle has been crossed, the front-line matters have to be dealt with.

In Zhang Jun's view, Shao Hongyuan is at least willing to launch an attack. He is willing to organize an attack, complete his mission, and accept the order of the Privy Council, so that he may have the possibility to complete his mission.

Qi Fang, on the other hand, had an ambiguous attitude. He did not enter the army, but only blocked the mountain road, hoping to trap the peasant army...

is it possible?

Even if Zhang Jun's level is very good, he also has basic military literacy. He feels that the peasant army may not be able to be trapped, and the logistics of the Song army are very likely to collapse before them.

Qi Fang, this bastard, is probably just as Shao Hongyuan said, thinking that it is difficult to make a fortune in the country.

Zhang Jun knows a little about these dirty things in the army. He has also led soldiers, and he has also heard about some shameless bastards doing business with the enemy in private.

Therefore, in any case, Qi Fang could no longer influence Shao Hongyuan, who was willing to fight.

However, the sudden victory of Qi Fang, who is highly qualified, may cause instability in the front-line army, and it is easy to cause disaster at that time, so Zhang Jun thought about it and decided to send a civil minister to represent the Privy Council to go to the front-line army to supervise the army to restrain Qi Fang and give Shao Hongyuan supports.

Through the restraint of Wenchen's power, it can somewhat deter the soldiers, so that they dare not have superfluous ideas.

Thinking back to the Huaixi military change, Zhang Jun was deeply concerned. In order not to make mistakes, Zhang Jun also learned to behave, and decided not to follow his own likes and dislikes, but to appoint people with real military talents to supervise the army. Sufficient seniority so as not to be underestimated.

After choosing, Zhang Jun chose Feng Shixing, an old friend he had with him.

Feng Shixing has always insisted on the stance of the main battle, so he was rejected by Qin Hui's party for 17 years, and was even removed from the record of the number one scholar of the Song Dynasty, and was not recognized as the number one scholar.

Fortunately, he was able to keep the clouds and see the moon after all. In the 31st year of Shaoxing, he was reactivated during the chaotic period of the war between Ming and Jin, and then fell silent again with Zhang Jun's frustration, and then was activated again with Zhang Jun. And enabled.

He likes to read military books, has a lot of views on military planning, has a strategic vision, and has deep qualifications and years of age. Qi Fang and Shao Hongyuan will not despise him.

After selecting the candidate, Zhang Jun called Feng Shixing, told him the appointment, and let him make some preparations.

However, Feng Shixing was sick at this time. When he came to take orders, his nose was blocked and he had runny nose. Zhang Jun consoled him and asked him if he could travel.

"The country has a destiny, how dare you not obey? How can a mere ailment be compared with the mission of the country?"

Feng Shixing resolutely took orders.

"Good! As expected of a pillar of the country!"

Zhang Jun praised Feng Shixing, and then instructed Feng Shixing to do some things, telling him that this trip to the Jiangnan West Road Army was a secret trip, with an important mission, and he was also responsible for finding out whether Qi Fang had colluded with the bandit army.

If there is, then find ways to take Qi Fang, deprive him of his military power, and convict him.

The other is to fully cooperate with Shao Hongyuan to attack Luoxiao Mountain and destroy the traitors of Luoxiao Mountain in order to end the war.

Feng Shixing felt that he had a great responsibility, so regardless of the doctor's order to let him rest more, he quickly packed up and went on the road.

A few days after Feng Shixing left, Lin'an received information about the abnormal mobilization of the Ming army in the Jiangbei area, and learned that the Ming army in the Jiangbei area suddenly dispatched and blocked various traffic arteries. The intensity of the investigation was several times stronger than in the past.

What is this big move?

The Lin'an court was instantly tense.

Zhao Tan was so nervous that he couldn't sleep at night and couldn't eat during the day.

Zhang Jun was so nervous that he couldn't even take care of the bandit suppression operation on Jiangnan West Road.

Zhao Gou nervously packed his bags and was ready to run away again.

Perhaps the last time the Ming army hit them so deeply that they almost suffered from PTSD. As soon as they heard the news that the Ming army was dispatched, they immediately thought of the Ming army crossing the river, and the Ming army breaking through the Song army. After many lines of defense, Lin'an City was finally surrounded.

The imagination of the emperors and ministers of the Song Dynasty is only at this level is it particularly prominent.

Because of the extreme importance, Zhao Gou and Zhao Tan together requested that the information be changed every day, and the latest information should be sent to Lin'an every day.

Because this request was outrageous, it was tantamount to funerals for the spies who had finally been planted in the Ming Kingdom in the Southern Song Dynasty, but they had to obey the order and could only send information once a day.

As a result, Lin'an City continued to learn that the Ming army blocked the main traffic roads, and the inspection of the checkpoint was several times stricter, and there were even news that many people were directly arrested by the Ming army when they passed the checkpoint.

As these news were sent, the Southern Song spy was targeted by the Skynet Army in the Lianghuai area. In the following days, the Skynet Army eliminated more than a dozen Southern Song spies one after another, destroyed three Southern Song spy stations, and made the Southern Song Dynasty better. It is easy to destroy seventy-eighty-eight spy stations established in the Lianghuai region.

Those who survived were so frightened that they no longer dared to rashly transmit news, so the sources of information in Lin'an City were interrupted for a while.

This made Zhao Gou and Zhao Tan extremely uneasy. They urged the news several times a day, causing the officials of the relevant departments of the Privy Council, who were responsible for intelligence reconnaissance, to get angry and festered.

However, the emperor's requirements still have to be satisfied. If they are not satisfied, they can only continue to send people to sneak into the territory of the Ming Kingdom, and use a very risky way to go deep into the territory of the Ming Kingdom to inquire about the news and find out the movements of the Ming army, so that Zhao Gou can decide whether he wants it or not. Run again.

At the beginning of May, Lin'an got the exact news, it was a news that exchanged the lives of three spies.

It turned out that the Ming Dynasty was not engaged in any military operations. The reason for the mobilization of the army was because the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Su Yonglin, carried out an anti-corruption campaign in Shandong, arresting a large number of corrupt officials and landlords and gentry who assisted them in corruption, and arresting a large number of people throughout Shandong. ,kill.

Shandong officials, landlords, and wealthy businessmen were startled overnight, could not sleep well, eat poorly, and even fled in large numbers, so Su Yonglin dispatched the army to arrest them.

The Ming army's blockade of major traffic routes, strict checkpoint review, etc. are all measures taken by Su Yonglin's anti-corruption campaign, not a military action against the Southern Song Dynasty.

When the news was sent to Lin'an, the monarchs and ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Tan breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Jun heaved a sigh of relief.

Zhao Gou also breathed a sigh of relief, and then gave up the preparations for running away, and quickly asked Lao Wu Bao's team to enter the palace to perform for him, spend some money, and convene powerful relatives to hold a banquet to suppress the shock.

As long as the Ming Kingdom doesn't mobilize the army to fight, that's fine. As for what's going on inside, they don't care much, and they can't change anything if they care.

However, after they were relieved, they would have more room to dictate the policies of the Ming Kingdom and have a good opinion.

The emperor of the Ming Kingdom is cruel and unkind, the emperor of the Ming Kingdom is terrifying, and the emperor of the Ming Kingdom is extremely incompetent, etc. Zhao Tan is also a little comfortable to hear.

Zhang Jun couldn't help but express his opinion again.

"Emperor Ming, relying on the military might, abused the people, tyrannized and ruthless, slaughtered officials and people, and caused great chaos. Although his army was stronger than it was for a while, it would eventually weaken. The ancients said that the offensive and defensive situation is different when benevolence and righteousness are not exercised. It can be seen that the Ming Kingdom will not be too long."

Good guy, this time everyone seems to have forgotten about Zhang Jun's prophecies, and they all applauded, thinking that what Zhang Jun said was right.

Su Yonglin is so tyrannical and inhumane, and his anti-corruption campaign in the Ming Kingdom is destroying his foundation, which will only make the hearts of the Northern Kingdom chaotic and miss the old master.

This will be of great benefit to the Song Dynasty's future Northern Expedition to the Central Plains.

Zhang Jun also gave a secret performance to Zhao Tan for this purpose. It was mentioned that Su Yonglin’s actions had gone to the extreme, and it would definitely cause a change in the minds of the people in the Ming Kingdom. The gentry will also be at odds with the Ming regime, which will be of great benefit to the future Northern Expedition of the Southern Song Dynasty.

In the future, the Song army will go all the way to the north, and the powerful gentry along the way will definitely meet the king of the Great Song Dynasty. At that time, the entire Central Plains will be turbulent, and the Ming regime will be overthrown at the touch of a finger.

In the secret performance, he is full of pride, pointing the country, and he seems to have a thousand strategies in his heart.
