Borrow the day to change the day

After Zhong Jinwei laughed, he said coldly: "The army of the kingdom of heaven, all of them are brightly armored, and their number is larger than that of the Jian captives, but they are bullied to their own door. They don't think about making progress, they only know how to protect themselves, and they are not as good as ordinary people." .What is the use of such an army, I will definitely tell the Emperor Ming to reduce your military pay and food, so as not to raise a bunch of waste in vain. "

After Zhong Jinwei finished speaking, he turned his head and said to Gu Baichuan who was standing behind him, "Let's go." After speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave.

When Sun Chengzong heard this, he quickly stood up, stopped Zhong Jinwei and said, "Boxiu Zhongxing is leaving, if you have something to say, talk about it."

Among the people here, Sun Chengzong is the one who knows Zhong Jinwei's energy best. Not only does the emperor trust him, but he is also responsible for the planning and salary of the army in the future.

Although I also have the trust of the emperor, the basis of this trust comes from Zhong Jinwei's actions.If he had a conflict with Uncle Zhongxing and had to choose between the two, he could be sure that the emperor trusted Zhong Jinwei more. [

And according to his observations, the relationship between Chief Assistant Wen Tiren and Zhong Jinwei is also extraordinary, and the relationship between the admiral of the East Factory and Zhong Jinwei is also very good.Before he knew it, Zhong Jinwei had already become a very important role in Daming's officialdom.

Sun Chengzong didn't dare to let Zhong Jinwei go away in anger, not only because of Zhong Jinwei's threat, but also for another reason.Whether or not the people of Changli can be saved cannot be clearly stated. If Zhong Jinwei is to be let go in this way, and if this matter is spread to the outside world, those censors will not try their best to impeach them. They are most willing to do it in the name of justice. They will not consider that you, Sun Chengzong, are thinking about the overall situation.

Zhong Jinwei didn't really want to leave, but when Sun Chengzong stopped him, he stopped smoothly.But he still said angrily: "How can I say it well? The people of Changli do not have the protection of the army, and they do not surrender to the Jian captives. They insist on resisting tens of thousands of Tartars, and are desperately looking forward to the reinforcements from the court. Now you just throw them to With the capture of the Jian captives, the people of Changli lost their chances of life."

When Zhong Jinwei said this, he was not sure where Changli was, so he pointed in a random direction and said, "Can you hear the pleas and expectations of the people of Changli for the imperial reinforcements; can you see that Changli has been reduced to ruins, dead bodies All over the country. Our fathers and villagers are lying on the ruins, and there are still expectations for you in their eyes. But they didn't expect reinforcements until they died. Can you empathize with their despair?"

He Kegang listened to Zhong Jinwei's emotional accusation, and scenes of villages and towns that had been ruined by Jianlu that he had seen before appeared in front of his eyes.He is from Liao, and he has experienced this kind of grief before. Listening to Zhong Jinwei's questioning at this time, he can empathize with him more than anyone else.

In grief and indignation, He Kegang took a step forward from the back of Zu Dashou, clasped his fists to Zhong Jinwei and said: "Supervisor, the last general is willing to go!"

All of a sudden, He Kegang's actions attracted everyone's attention.Zu Dashou secretly scolded He Kegang for being as naive as before, but he didn't dare to stop him in front of the supervisor.

Zhong Jinwei was very surprised that Zu Dashou would stand up behind Zu Dashou. Although he didn't know who he was, Zhong Jinwei was very happy and said, "Okay, real man! I am the supervising army, representing the emperor. I will go with you, Let the people of Changli understand that the emperor did not abandon them, and the court did not abandon them. Yes, neither abandon nor give up, this is the attitude of Ming Dynasty to the people, and also the attitude of the emperor."

From a historical point of view, many people criticized Emperor Chongzhen for not being determined enough to suppress the peasant uprising in the Northwest.This actually proves from one aspect that Emperor Chongzhen never abandoned or gave up on his people. It's just a pity that no one in history could really help him.

After hearing Zhong Jinwei's words, the general behind Zu Dashou already felt the same way, especially for what Zhong Jinwei said about never abandoning and never giving up.Because he was not from Liao, he was often squeezed out by the Liaodong family in the Guanning army, and he often felt a sense of loneliness of being abandoned and abandoned.

Now that he saw that the supervising army had to go in person, and that he was going on behalf of the emperor, he couldn't help admiring him. He didn't have the fear of Jianlu that ordinary Ming soldiers had, so he stood up immediately, clasped his fists and said to Zhong Jinwei: "Supervisor Army, the last general is also willing to go."

"The villain is familiar with the terrain around Changli, and is willing to explore the way for the army." Hu Hao also stood up.

Zhong Jinwei looked at the three of them, and suddenly remembered a sentence, a raging soldier, a raging nest.If the leader is capable, no matter how capable the generals are, most of them will be buried.It's not that Ming Dynasty has no warriors who dare to fight, it's just that they are restrained from fighting.

"Okay, you are all doing well, don't worry, we are definitely not going to die, we are going to rescue the people of Changli!" Zhong Jinwei promised them.

"Uncle Zhongxing, don't be impulsive." Sun Chengzong stopped him.Seeing what Zhong Jinwei said, he told the two generals under Zu Dashou, secretly admiring him.However, due to his duties as a coach and his calm temperament, he still did not agree with Zhong Jinwei's behavior.

"That's right, Uncle Zhongxing, take a long-term view." Zu Dashou was secretly annoyed when Zhong Jinwei took his subordinates away, and spoke in a tone of teaching.

"Shall I take the long view? I think you are short-sighted." Zhong Jinwei looked at the two senior generals of the Ming army and retorted mercilessly.

When Zu Dashou heard Zhong Jinwei say that he was short-sighted, his face darkened. If Zhong Jinwei was not the supervising army, he would have turned his face on the spot.

Although Zhong Jinwei's words were not addressed to Sun Chengzong, his hearing was a bit harsh. [

Seeing Zu Dashou's expression, Zhong Jinwei knew that he was not convinced, so he said: "I think the biggest reason why you didn't save Changli is that you are afraid of Jianlu. Jianlu is invincible against the enemy in the field. That's nonsense. Jianlu Are the captives powerful? Tens of thousands of Jian captives attacked a small county town in Changli, and the inside was completely defended by ordinary people. They couldn’t be defeated even after several fights. How powerful are they?”

When Zhong Jinwei said this, he turned to Sun Chengzong and said: "I really don't know how you fought with Jianlu before. Could it be that they have three heads and six arms, and they have one head and two legs. What is the difference between them and ordinary people. Even after losing battles, Then you are afraid of Jianlu like a tiger, you are all like this, let alone the soldiers below!"

Sun Chengzong couldn't help crying and laughing. In fact, there were many reasons why he couldn't beat Jianlu. Among them, the military discipline was corrupted, and the generals were fed up with empty pay and soldiers' blood, which led to fewer soldiers capable of fighting (only the general's servants could fight), and the low morale of the Ming army was the most important. one of the reasons.Sun Chengzong did not have the ability to change these, and he did not have direct troops, so he could only adopt a defensive and counterattack strategy in the war against Jianlu.

As a result, Jianlu's image as an enemy in the Ming army was aggravated, and morale was lowered. Facing Jianlu, he was timid before fighting, and it was even more difficult to be Jianlu's opponent. Such a vicious cycle led to the fact that the Ming army continued to fight But Jianlu.It was also because of the constant defeats that dragged down Daming's already weak national finances, which was one of the important reasons for the demise of Ming Dynasty.

But now in this plane, with the help of Zhong Jinwei, the weak soldiers in King Qin's army were eliminated, and the army's food and grass were guaranteed again, so the biggest problems in the army before did not exist for the time being.

Now what needs to be solved in King Qin's army is the morale problem, not only the morale of the soldiers, but also the morale of the generals.King Qin's army generally had a weak mentality towards Jianlu, thinking that Jianlu was an enemy and could not defeat Jianlu, which led to the generals at all levels trying their best to preserve their strength and dare not fight Jianlu.Otherwise, they think they can beat Jianlu, and they don't rush to make meritorious service and get promoted.

"Now there is the best opportunity to boost morale, but you have given up on it. Is it wrong to say that you are short-sighted?" Zhong Jinwei was still talking loudly.

"Uncle Zhongxing, are you talking about saving Changli?" Sun Chengzong asked Zhong Jinwei thoughtfully.

"Exactly, the people of Changli are using their actions to show that the Jianlu are not terrible, they are just ordinary people. Why did the Jianlu increase their troops in Changli and must take down Changli, because Changli damaged their military prestige. The slave chiefs know When it comes to this point, how many of us have realized this?” Only Zhong Jinwei’s voice was talking in the Chinese military tent, and no one else made a sound.

In fact, he was not sure whether Huang Taiji sent more troops to attack Changli because of the reason he said.

"We should strive to keep Changli and prevent the slave chieftains from succeeding, and then widely publicize the victory of Changli. This is more worthy of publicity and praise than ordinary victories. When all the generals and soldiers of Ming Dynasty realize that Jianlu is actually as ordinary as themselves When the time comes, dare to attack, dare to fight with Jianlu, then Jianlu's good life will come to an end." Zhong Jinwei said sonorously and forcefully, falling to the ground with a sound.

There was a clatter of crows and birds in the Chinese military tent, thinking about Zhong Jinwei's words.

Zhong Jinwei finished his words here, he stopped trying to persuade Sun Chengzong and Zu Dashou, and said to the two generals who stood up just now: "What are your names, and how many people are under your command?"
