Chapter 591 Is it necessary for the universe to be arbitrary? (fourth more)

Upon hearing this, Shen Yongmao, Minister of the Ministry of War, immediately objected: "Your Majesty, absolutely not!"

"Why?" Emperor Chongzhen frowned when he heard this, and asked, "Are you doubting the strength of the new army and can't defeat Jianlu's city?"

Regardless of whether the emperor was unhappy or not, Shen Yongmao bowed and said, "Your Majesty, what I mean is that if you want to attack the cities in the hinterland of Liaodong, I am afraid that the army is still on the way. Jianlu has already detected the news and sent the army over. Intercepted!"

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he didn't continue to act arbitrarily, but began to think.At this time, Wang Chengen also said: "Lu Zhongcheng thought that the main reason why he was able to sneak into the hinterland of Liaodong to steal Liaoyang last time was because the Jianlu army invaded North Korea, and the feigned attack of the Guanning army attracted the remaining Jianlu in Liaodong. If you have this opportunity, you can sneak thousands of miles without anyone noticing, and the Jianlu will not be aware of it."

The meaning of these words is actually an expression of attitude, and it supports Shen Yongmao's statement.

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Xingzuo went on to say: "Sun Ge always thought that now that the Jianlu army is all in Liaodong, even if the Guanning army pretends to move again, it may not be able to attract all the Jianlu. What's more, the Jianlu has already learned a lesson. , I will definitely not suffer the same loss again!"

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen had to admit that what they said was indeed reasonable.If the new army is stopped by Jianlu on the road, although he is confident that the new army can defeat Jianlu.But that was fighting in Jianlu's house, even if they won a team of Jianlu, there would be a steady stream of Jianlu coming to kill them later.In the end, I am afraid that the new army will die in Liaodong.Just like the alliance between the Baigan Army and the Qi Family Army, they were surrounded by Jianlu and died in Hunhe in the end.

Thinking of this, he nodded immediately, and immediately admitted: "Your loves are right, I am indeed a little on paper!"

As soon as he said this, he was very surprised if he seemed to be very familiar with his acting minister of rites, Sun Yuanhua.He didn't expect that the emperor would be so broad-minded. After being told by his courtiers, he would not become angry from embarrassment. One is one, and the other is two.The former emperor would not admit that he was wrong so simply!
He didn't know that for the surviving ancient emperors, it was naturally the one he thought of.But today's Emperor Chongzhen has the concept of later generations, so it is naturally different.

At this moment, Liu Xingzuo said again: "Mr. Sun Ge thought that it might be possible to capture the city of Linhai. In this way, he could take it with lightning speed and before the Jianlu reinforcements arrived, for example, Gaizhouwei!"

Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen immediately remembered the geographical location of Gaizhouwei in his mind.However, the ministers present may not know it, so with a wave of his hand, he asked the servant to send a large map of Liaodong, which was hung on the screen, so that all the ministers below could know where the Gaizhou Guard was.

At a glance, Wen Tiren and other ministers all nodded.This Gaizhou guard, Linhai, can indeed attack by surprise.

"Your Majesty, I think Gaizhou is okay!" Shen Yongmao bowed to Emperor Chongzhen and said, "If the Jianlu army comes to attack, our army can also withdraw from the sea!"

When everyone heard this, they all nodded repeatedly, and some even commented in a low voice: "This time, the freedom of advance and retreat is indeed the first choice!"

But at this moment, Wang Cheng'en said again: "Lu Zhongcheng said that Liaodong is bitterly cold. In the current winter, the sea must freeze. How can we retreat?"

Hearing this, the relaxed atmosphere in the Wenhua Palace disappeared immediately.Yes, this year's winter is getting colder every year.The sea in the northeast is estimated to freeze very early.And Jianlu would definitely not allow Gaizhou to be occupied by the Ming army. After all, it is not far from Haizhou, and not far behind Haizhou is the important town of Liaoyang.

But if Gaizhou is not chosen, are there other places?It's winter along the Liaodong coast, but everything will freeze!

All of a sudden, the Wenhua Palace fell silent.Everyone is a little helpless, as if there is no good choice.Even Wang Chengen and Liu Xingzuo were silent. Obviously, Sun Chengzong and Lu Xiangsheng had no good countermeasures.In winter, it is really unfavorable!
However, when no one else spoke, Emperor Chongzhen said: "Based on my estimation of the new army, as long as the supplies are sufficient, it is no problem to stick to Gaizhou for a whole winter!"

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.Just kidding, with such a small number of troops, without reinforcements from outside, under the offensive of Jianlu, is it possible to hold out for a whole winter?

Seeing their expressions, Emperor Chongzhen could not help but smile and said: "I am sure of this, the new army will not let me down."

"Your Majesty, is the new army really that strong?" Shen Yongmao, Minister of the Ministry of War, could not help but confirm with suspicion.

This time, before Emperor Chongzhen could answer, Bi Ziyan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, replied with a tone of unwillingness: "The supplies consumed by the new army are almost catching up with the Beijing camp!"

Hearing this, everyone in the Wenhua Hall was shocked again.You know, the new army has only more than 5000 people, while the Beijing camp has nearly 5 people.The material consumption of the two is about the same, so...then this new army is completely piled up with money!

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, as if confirming the words of the Minister of the Ministry of Hubu, and seemed to be answering the question of the Minister of the Ministry of War.He then raised his voice and said confidently: "The officers and men of the new army were originally the elites of the frontier army who were really selected, and now they are trained with Marshal Qi's art of war. His teacher, Cao Bianjiao, assures me that he will never disappoint me!"

Hearing Emperor Chongzhen speak so affirmatively again, the ministers in the Wenhua Palace looked at each other with surprise on their faces. They didn't expect that the emperor could really forge a strong army?
For a long time, there have been training and strengthening soldiers.But in the early years of Chongzhen, Xu Guangqi had trained troops according to the order, but it was nothing; in the original history, Sun Yuanhua also trained troops, but finally trained a rebel army.The so-called military training does not mean that if you practice, you must be a strong army!
When everyone was thinking this way, they heard Liu Xingzuo say: "Mr. Sun Ge said that training and combat are completely different things. Whether His Majesty's new army can hold on for a whole winter, Mr. Ge reserves his opinion!"

Upon hearing this, several courtiers nodded in unanimous agreement, thinking in their hearts: Mr. Sun Ge is old and experienced in leading troops, so he has the prestige to say these words!

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help frowning. He believed in the new army, but these ministers didn't seem to believe it. Could it be that he had to make his own decisions?

At this moment, Bi Ziyan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, said again: "Your Majesty, if the new army expedition to Liaodong intends to capture Gaizhou and stick to it for a whole winter, I am afraid that the imperial court will not be able to produce so many supplies."

Speaking of this, he saw the emperor looking at him, and immediately added: "The main thing is grain and grass. Nowadays, all parts of Daming need food. There are too many monks and too little porridge!"

　There should be another update tonight, so let's go out for dinner first.
