Can you live forever

Chapter 375 Use the tricks, the new army organizes and trains

Why have these scholar-bureaucrats liked foreigners since the Song Dynasty?Is it cheap?Do you have to find yourself a master?
otherwise.

This is the emperor's orthodoxy of more than 1000 years since Qin Shihuang, and the monarchy's orthodoxy of 8000 years since Dayu.

When the imperial power cannot be controlled, directly destroying the imperial power is the best way.

however.

Like Tumubao, the mutiny has reached that level, and the soldiers still dare not kill Yingzong. They dare to kill civil servants and eunuchs, but they dare not kill the emperor.

No one thinks that mutiny can overthrow Ming Dynasty and seize the world.

Therefore, even if they were coerced and killed in front of the emperor, they knew that there were certain things that they could never do.

Even if there are civil officials who guarantee cooperation and can deal with the funeral, they will not be too hot-headed, because in the eyes of the soldiers at the bottom, the so-called mutiny is nothing but... a party struggle if the emperor is not hurt.

No matter how angry the emperor is, he will not spill it on these big soldiers, not to mention that there are princes in the court.

and so.

Back then in Tumubao, the rebels killed all the eunuchs and ministers around Yingzong, and killed Yingzong as a lonely family, but they didn't touch Yingzong.

Yingzong wandered alone in the wild for several days, and finally met Yexian, and after all the hardships, he was finally sent back.

And Yingzong's return to Beijing was also a political contest.

Who let Yu Qian go?It's fine if you strictly guard against Yingzong's return, but if you hold the power alone, surpassing the six ministers and the cabinet, isn't it a bit too much?
Therefore, Zhu Qiyu's son died.

Therefore, Yingzong was taken back, and Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian were caught off guard.

That's why Zhu Qiyu died, that's why Yingzong was restored, and that's why Yu Qian also died...then they began to cleanse the dead and make Yu Qian a saint, and Yingzong would never stand up again.

Everything is profiting from the civil service group.

Yingzong was captured, "killing heroes in vain", and so on, the weakening of imperial power continued until the Zhengde period, so that Wuzong had to set up another leopard room, drill new troops, go out of the nine sides without authorization, enter the barracks, and repel Mongolia .

Although the word "Wu" is not very good for the temple title of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, it does reveal Wu Zong's military talent.

It did break through the influence of the civil fortress, and resumed the restoration of imperial power.

But, it's too sloppy.

If you dare to go to Nanjing if your foothold is not stable and the palace is not cleaned up, what if you escape to the Leopard Room after returning to the capital?Damn, still die.

All of the above are insidious means to maintain the influence of the civil castle.

And the Mutiny of Tumubao also blamed Yexian, and did not dare to really kill the emperor, let alone break through the capital.

All these are the limits of what can be done without the cooperation of foreign races.

If they really cooperate first, then what will be staged is not a civil castle, but Jingkang shame.After carefully studying the Jingkang Change, you will understand how outrageous it is.

Starting from the Jin Army, calculated according to the mileage of modern highways, there is a distance of 1600 miles, and the Jin Army arrived in Kaifeng in 20 days, without luggage, without navigation, and the lonely army went deep...and broke through the capital of the Song Dynasty.

So much so that the history books can only write that Song Qinzong believed in Taoist priests, opened the city gate, and scattered beans into soldiers to deal with the Jin army...

They never thought about the concept of marching eighty miles a day in the enemy's territory.

Moreover, it is necessary to open roads across mountains and build bridges when encountering water...

These are not important, what is important is the shame, the majesty of the imperial power is worthless from now on, the civil official group headed by Qin Hui can directly treat Song Gaozong as a puppet, and can directly kill Yue Fei for no reason.

If it wasn't for party disputes, if someone hadn't overturned the case, Qin Hui wouldn't have become a traitor...

and so.

Whether it is Jingkang or Tumubao, they are unsatisfactory, and they know it all too well. Whether it is Jinren or Mongolia, these are not capable of truly ruling the Central Plains. Even if they are in charge, they can only be governed by them.

However, the population of foreign races is small, so as long as they lose their barbarism and want not to be overthrown, they can only rely on them. Over time, they will become puppets.

Why did Zhu Yuanzhang not hate Mongolia?

Various marriage benefits after defeating Mongolia?
Because he has never been bullied by the Mongols since he was a child, and those who bullied him were all gentry.

Zhu Yuanzhang could see clearly, and of course the scholar-officials themselves knew better.

and so.

Xia Yan tried every means, and planned to come to Jingkang or Tumubao again, but the Mongols knew that there were only three things. They conquered the Central Plains with their own strength, and Kublai Khan also wooed the northern princes and southern gentry. They tried, but even The Yuan Dynasty was also unable to rule China, and was later dumped, which made Mongolia unable to fully trade with Ming Dynasty after Tumubao.

Then suffer from the exploitation of smuggling.

In such a situation, let alone agreeing to conspire, Dahan will not even send tribute during this period, and he will never give these civil servants the slightest chance to frame him.

Mongolia learned to be smart, but Jianzhou did not.

But Xia Yan understood it, and Jiajing understood it even more. In particular, Zhang Zhixiang told the history of Jiajing 500 years later. Jiajing kept Yu Dayou nailed to Liaodong, which made Xia Yan helpless.

Only in today's situation, an opportunity has been found.

Qiu Luan won too hard in the south, and what Jiajing had to do was too thorough. The generals on the nine sides couldn't sit still, so they could only listen to his arrangements and lead an army to "surprise" Jianzhou...

As far as soldiers at the bottom are concerned, if you ask him to rebel with the commander-in-chief of the frontier army, they will not agree.

But if you send them as prisoners first, and then let the surrendered general lead them to attack Ming...they will agree.

It doesn't matter if you don't want to, use some means, fight a few battles, know that you can't go back, you have to make a living, you can be a slave or a soldier, how can you choose?

It's nothing more than coercion.

As for being defeated and captured, it is very easy. For example, in the battle of Sarhu in 47 years and [-] years, it was not because Nurhachi could not continue to operate and was about to collapse. warmth?
The four armies were defeated one by one, leaving only Li Rubai alone.

How many prisoners, how many soldiers, how many weapons and equipment were sent?

These things that will be done in the future are not new at all, just like when they helped the Jin soldiers boast that they were "invincible", just like the Jin Dynasty established the Iron Buddha.

That's all after getting the "supply".

In fact, it is to send warmth, and the superficial defeat can create panic. Even if the imperial decree is false, after the defeat, the public will spread the word that the emperor is confused, and then in order to shirk responsibility...

Attack the emperor's prestige and erect the impression that the enemy is invincible.

Furthermore, various methods were used to destroy the combat strength and morale of the frontier army, but this was not enough, and they had to personally take action to welcome Jianzhou into the capital, otherwise they would not be able to fight on their own, and would have to stay outside the customs for the rest of their lives.

When the false is true, it is also true, and when the true is false, it is also true.

But there is a saying that the organ was too clever in its calculations, and it cost Qingqing's life instead.

"Dream of Red Mansions" has made the history very clear. The Mongols are only three people, and they are unwilling to enter the set. But after they enter the customs, how can they not learn from the lessons of their predecessors?

The Jin Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty... there are only three things.

……

"There are only three things, what else can those civil servants do? It's just a way to lure bandits into the customs. The Mongols have experienced the Yuan Dynasty and Tumubao, so they naturally know how to be smart."

"The only thing to worry about is Liaodong."

"That's why I have been sweeping the acupoints in the courtyard early on, and have been arranging for Yu Dayou to go to Liaodong."

"If you don't open your mouth, you won't be able to enter Jianzhou, so Xia Yan and the others can only take the wrong strategy, which is probably to spread a false imperial decree and let General Xuan lead his troops to detour from outside the pass to surprise Jianzhou, making such an impossible move. Strategy, then defeated and captured."

"Thereby enhancing the strength of Jianzhou."

Yan Song and Yan Shifan entered the palace for an audience. Jiajing sat by the incense burner, holding a volume of alchemy in his hand, and said calmly while reading.

Yan Song listened carefully.

But Yan Shifan was extremely admirable, he never thought that Jiajing could see so thoroughly, and so calm and calm, as if everything was under his control, like a real dragon in the clouds, unfathomable.

After pondering, Yan Song said, "Since Your Majesty has already guessed Xia Yan's actions, why don't you take the opportunity to stop them?"

Jiajing turned the pages of the book, and said leisurely: "I have no soldiers, and I can't stop them. It's better to let them go, so as to get rid of the troubles in my heart. From now on, there will be no nine sides."

"I have asked someone to send a secret letter to Al Dahan, asking him to come to the capital to see him after Xuanda's soldiers leave."

"I named him king, and from then on, Mongolia was officially incorporated into the territory of Ming Dynasty."

"Xia Yan and the others want to fight in Liaodong, so they will fight in Liaodong. Xuanda doesn't need to waste energy. Not only that, I Dahan needs to cooperate with us from the eastern front, and go to Nurgandusi to attack Jianzhou."

"Xia Yan wants to use Liaodong to shed my blood, and it just so happens that I also want to use Liaodong to shed Nanjing's blood."

"In the bitter cold land of Liaodong, more than [-] people eat and drink, all relying on sea supplies. Their east road is blocked by Mongolia and Nurgan Dusi, and the front is blocked by the Liaodong Capital Command Division. In the North Korean area, a navy can be set up to copy at any time. The road behind Jianzhou."

"I would like to see how rich Nanjing is and can afford such a war."

Yan Song listened and said with admiration: "Your Majesty's holy plan, but is it wrong to abolish the nine borders? It's fine if the abolition is announced, but if the towns in the west and Jiayu are abolished, the Western Regions may not be abolished." stable."

Jiajing said: "There is no big war, and the local capital can deal with it for the time being."

"When Qiu Luan returns to Beijing, Annan and other young people with ambitions after the country's average land will join, and the new army will be reorganized. The fifth army battalion will be reorganized, and the fifth army commander's office will shoulder its due responsibilities."

"Daming will be divided into five theaters, which will be under the responsibility of the five military commanders' offices."

"The Western Regions were handed over to the Governor's Mansion of the Western Army. Although there are important towns at the border, heavy troops are not placed at the border on weekdays. Instead, they are in the corresponding military area to cooperate with local production and construction."

"For example, the capital of the Northern Army will move its center of gravity to the grassland."

Jiajing's words made Yan Song hesitate for a while, but Yan Shifan had already asked: "Your Majesty, with such a change, is it too powerful for the local army? There may be suspicion of separatism in the town?"

"And if you don't guard the nine sides, once you rebel..."

"You can go straight to the capital."

"This... I think it's inappropriate."

Jiajing glanced at Yan Shifan and said, "You are smarter than your father. From now on, you father and son will be father and son soldiers in battle, so you should share your father's worries."

"It's good to be bold, but with depth and insight."

"Since you asked, then I will test you. In your opinion, how to prevent the rebellion of the five armies' governor's mansion?"

Yan Shifan didn't expect Jiajing to say such a thing. Sweat broke out on his forehead all of a sudden. He was nervous and even more excited. He used to help his father with things in private. bring in.

But when Jiajing said this, it was obvious that he was going to be used.

Not through Yan Song's power, but directly to him...

After thinking for a while, Yan Shifan said: "The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies should be directly under the imperial court and cannot be divided into local troops. In addition, the Governor's Mansion needs to be restored to command the Five Armies."

"Although the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is in command of the army, it does not command and train troops, but is only responsible for strategic command and dispatch."

"Your Majesty is training the new army. To wait for Qiu Luan's squadron to return to the court, in addition to the elite of the Southern Expeditionary Army, what is more important is those young people with aspirations who will fight for the great cause after equalizing the land and exempting them from taxes."

"The new army should have corresponding ideological construction, and the soldiers' beliefs must be changed ideologically."

"Let them know why they are fighting."

"In this way, we will not be able to be commanded by the frontier generals at will like those frontier troops in Xuanfu Datong, or even carry out mutiny activities such as civil fortresses."

"In addition, the Chinese Army's Governor's Mansion is supposed to protect the capital."

"We also have the Shenji Battalion and the Three Thousand Battalion, which should also be special elite troops, capable of suppressing rebellion."

Yan Shifan was very smart, and he immediately grasped the essence of the new army, which lies in ideology, not in systems or equipment. The difference can be seen from the source of troops selected by Jiajing.

In religion, there is a saying called convert fanaticism.

But in fact, there are also other fields. The Ming Dynasty's war on the peninsula has made the people of Annan and other countries deeply understand that the rise and fall of Ming Dynasty is related to the rise and fall of the world, and the direction of Ming Dynasty is related to the direction of the world.

Today they can equalize the land and exempt from taxation, but tomorrow they may carry out feudal restoration because of the change of Ming Dynasty.

and so.

If they want to protect their achievements and their homeland, they must come to Daming and fight for the reforms of Ming Dynasty. Those who will come to Ming Dynasty are pure idealists and great fighters.

Jiajing wants to reorganize the Fifth Army Battalion and reset the Five Army Commander's Mansion.

The first batch of new troops is expected to be 10 people, and the people from the peninsula are almost half of them.

In the follow-up training of the new army, the capital of the five armies will probably maintain the establishment of 50 troops. At that time, the proportion of foreigners will drop to less than [-]%.

Therefore, each stage has its own needs and advantages.

As for the issue of army rebellion, Jiajing believes that the new army does not rebel out of self-interest. For the construction of the new army, he will follow the core idea of ​​"building branches on the company".

Since then, the problem of military rebellion that has plagued China for thousands of years will be solved.

Only when soldiers know what they are going to do and why they are fighting, will they not follow the generals to rebel.
