Chapter 1054
In the eighth year of Wanli, the letters sent by the emperor to the three sides of the middle and the three sides of the east were read by telegrams.

In the Forbidden City, the young emperor held the arm of Buta Shili, the little Mongolian prince, and told Fang Fengshi, the governor of the three sides, to ask his governor to hold Alda for the empire.

The lantern at the gate of Zhang Juzheng's house has not been extinguished since Wu Dui, the servant of the Ministry of War, entered the capital's mansion next to the tiger's house in the capital.

Until the evening of the third day, the big Han general in armor like golden scales and Jin Yiwei rode to the door, and the chief assistant personally led the horse to send Wu Shilang out of Beijing.

After that, the Minister of the Ministry of War was stationed in Datong Youwei, looking across the Qingshui River on the Great Wall, Guihua City, which was built and built last year.

Cooperating with Wu Shilang to drive to the frontier, it was the Beiyang Army who would have boarded the warship and traveled to Asia at this time. They caught up with the best time and formed an army with the Tengxiang Second Guard who was personally trained by the emperor. Lead by Ye Mengxiong, an important minister of Beiyang, and supervised by Xu Jue, the governor of Jinyiwei, the army is called Wanli Army, which means that the emperor came in person.

The Wanli Army was the biggest concession made by the court to the emperor's insistence on conquering Alda himself.

As for the expedition to England and France in the Atlantic Ocean, let's put it down!Where in the world is there anything that the officials care about more than holding down my answer?Didn't you see what the emperor said to Qi Jiguang, the important minister of Beiyang and the governor of the left, in the telegram?The five-character emperor's order was clear: I want Wu Lianghai.

Because of these five words, the weeds that grew wildly beside the official road in Saibei fell to the direction where the ruts and iron hoofs stepped. It was the Wuliangha that this generation of Ming people had never heard of, and it was also the Wulianghai in the hearts of Emperor Wanli.

Qi Jiguang rode his horse and passed the silent marching queue of chariots and horses, looking back at the frontier fortress of the Great Wall shrunk into a line on the stretching green hills behind him, his blood boiled.

What made his blood boil was not because this battle was a decades-long battle for Da Ming, and it was not because Emperor Wanli, who was full of truth, cheerfully pulled out his swollen chest when he sent him to the Meridian Gate before the expedition. An imperial edict was issued and said: "If the battle is won, I will give this to Marshal Qi."

What really made his blood boil was that Emperor Wanli put the imperial edict in his arms again, sighed and said: "I know myself, although I am wise and powerful, but my combat skills are not my forte, so I won't make trouble for you. Ji Liao's appointment Liang Menglong, who has delegated power to the side wall, will not let you have the slightest worries, just let go and fight, once is not twice, twice is not three times, if you lose, I will keep you safe, as long as I win."

Liang Menglong's official title is very long. He is the governor of Jiliao Baoding and other departments of military affairs, and also manages food and payment. Ten thousand and forty feet, one enemy tower 110, and shoveling and shoveling slopes of 640 and two feet, there is only one main thing now: wherever Qi Jiguang's battle is fought, the supplies will be supplied.

The young Wanli Emperor had unique insights into the art of war. With Qi Jiajun, Nanyang Army, and Beiyang Army Zhuyu in front, everyone said that quantity is not as good as quality, but the emperor said to Qi Jiguang: Quantity is quality.

The quantity of luggage is the quality of the Ming army.

The quantity of luggage is controlled by a number of basic conditions, such as the integrity of officials and officers, the greed and courage of the dignitaries in the middle, etc., but the most important factor, the emperor believes that he can control it and has a huge advantage - silver quantity.

This is what really makes Qi Jiguang's blood boil, such trust, all worries are eliminated layer by layer, and only the enemy and his own abilities are in front of him.

Having such treatment is the greatest blessing of being a general.

As for the fact that there is no punishment for losing a battle, is the emperor's statement true or false?The generals across the north and south don't care, and these promises will never have a chance to be fulfilled.

Because he is Qi Jiguang, since the Ming Dynasty, the most costly victory was called the Battle of Cengang. At that time, the Qi family army had not yet been born, and the tens of thousands of Ming troops finally defeated more than a thousand pirates at the cost of [-] casualties in half a year. The general who led the army was Qi Jiguang .

After that, the Qi family army formed an army, and the least expensive victory since the Ming Dynasty was called the Battle of Wangcangping. Five thousand exhausted soldiers who participated in the Battle of Xianyou met with more than [-] Japanese pirates, and finally defeated the enemy without any casualties.

The morale of that battle was inspired by Rulong, the prison tyrant of Guangfu. He was not a prison tyrant at that time.

Qi Jiguang has never lost a battle.

The car rode out of Xifengkou and went up the Kuan River, passing through Huangya and Jiujuling to Songting Pass. The news brought back by the galloping horse made Qi Jiguang change his intention to attack Chahar Tumen Khan directly. Chang Ang sent a distress letter from the northwest battlefield. Taining Wei is gathering troops to attack Duoyan, asking the Ming army to protect his tribe.

"Commander, we found the hoofprints of the Taining guards. I'm afraid they have already set off, seventy miles away."

General Bao Yiping of the Zhejiang Army was Geng Zongyuan's subordinate. If he hadn't been transferred to the north that year, he would have died together with Geng Zongyuan in the assassination of rebel general Zhou Yunxiang.

At this time, the Song Pavilion was closed, and the generals who had charged into battle under the command of Geng Zongyuan and Qi Jiguang frowned, looked at the three ink circles on it according to the map, drew a line to Qi Jiguang, knelt on one knee and clasped his fists according to the military law: "Daddy!" Handsome, if we travel all night, our cavalry and infantry can catch up."

Difficult March is spoken in a declarative way, and no one knows what it means.

The Ming army and Chang'ang of the Duoyan tribe had no basis for mutual trust. Especially in the first year of Longqing, Dong Hu from the Duoyan tribe joined forces with Chang'ang's father Yingke and the Chahar tribe to attack Jielingkou. Chang'ang's father died in the In Qi Jiguang's hands, now that the imperial court has released private letters in order to make them civil strife, it will definitely offend them.

Not to mention that the mixed Qi family army chased the fast-moving Taining cavalry on the grassland, even if they managed to catch up, it would be difficult to have any combat power left. Chang'ang is not reliable enough, so it is not worth the risk for the Ming army.

Qi Jiguang shook his head and rejected this idea, saying: "The exhausted army, even relying on Checheng, can't fight Taining cavalry, Duoyan can't save, Chang'ang can't ignore...it's better to fight each other."

With his hand, he drew a line from Tainingwei to Duoyanwei on the map: "If Chang'ang's request for help is false, Duoyan must have ambushes, and Taining is mostly empty; if the request for help is true, Taining is also mostly empty. Whether it’s true or not, we don’t know, but the people in Taining must know.”

The situation is a bit tricky. Duoyan is the most powerful of the three guards. Although he still cannot compete with the barbarians, with them as surprise soldiers, the chances of winning this battle are very high; if Duoyan falls to the barbarians, together with Taining , except for the Qingbadu Taiji of the Harqin tribe, they will no longer have any eyes and ears north of the Great Wall.

Qi Jiguang sighed in his heart, pressed the sword on his waist lightly with his palm, and said: "Whether the Duoyan tribe surrendered or rebelled, you can only find out when you go to the Taining tribe."

"Beat the jiegu, send troops to Taining, spread the news to all the ministries, and anyone who shoots an arrow at the heavenly army will be regarded as a disobedient minister."

　Good morning, I'm finally home. I was exhausted after a long day of driving yesterday. Let's take a rest first. There are two updates today, and tomorrow I will start to make up for the updates owed in the previous few days.
