Chapter 98

: Advising to win Jinzhou

I felt a little uncomfortable before, thinking that I was angry with the young master for being humiliated by others, but why did the young master talk about his fault? But now seeing Tang Feng comforting him, I threw this unhappiness aside and said softly: "Young Master, I..."

Tang Feng just thought he wanted to explain something, and then patted his shoulder on the shoulder to stop him and said, "I know that this is not the fault of you. Don't I understand your character yet? If they hadn't really provoked you, you wouldn't have taught them a lesson. Moreover, you were responsible for your actions and did not really hurt them." He did not look at the expression of solving the problem and continued, "But this time I can't speak for Bi. You should still remember that I told you that you should respect those people, and they are using their lives to defend the boundaries of my Ming Dynasty."

I knew that Tang Feng was comforting himself because he was afraid that he would get stuck in the horns. He felt moved. When Tang Feng had just finished speaking and could not find anything else, he hurriedly said, "Young Master, I understand your intentions very well. I did make a mistake this time. If you really want to punish me, just do it and don't have to hold back for me. As long as you don't have a hard time, you can do it!"

Tang Feng was also a little moved. After he woke up, he helped him a lot. Although he caused trouble this time, he was also for himself, so he would never punish him. After being stunned, he said: "I think Lord Yuan has also seen this. He is a righteous and impartial person and will not make things difficult for you and me. But those soldiers will inevitably feel a little confused. When I meet General Zu tomorrow, I will just avenge him." Thinking of the prejudices Zu Dashou has always had against him, Tang Feng felt that it was still a little tricky, but if Yuan Chonghuan said Xiang aside, there should be no problem.

However, the development of the matter was somewhat beyond Tang Feng's expectations. When Tang Feng came to apologize, Zu Dashou was not only not angry, but also his arrogance in the past was restrained. Seeing Tang Feng coming, he hurried out to greet him, and even brought him into the hall with his arm and poured him into the hall. This made Tang Feng a little confused, but he still had to say what he should say.

After hearing Tang Feng explain his purpose, Zu Dashou laughed and said, "Master Tang, you are too concerned about such a small matter. It's just that there are some conflicts between the people below, which is always inevitable in the army. And I also heard Gao De talk about the incident. The fault is indeed his fault and it has nothing to do with this little brother. Why do you have to come to apologize?" As he said that, he glanced at the answering questions around Tang Feng, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

When Tang Feng saw that he was relaxed when he spoke, he looked like he was not as fake as if he was fake. After a few greetings with the other party, he raised his questions in his heart. For generals like Zu Dashou, it was better to ask questions straightforwardly, otherwise he might not be able to understand the meaning. Zu Dashou touched his beard under his jaw and said, "Sir, I really looked down on you before. This is because I am a rough man, and I am angry when I see those literary scholars. But from this incident, I learned that the real person does not show his appearance. This little brother put dozens of brothers under my ancestors and my subordinates to the ground with one force, which shows that they are not as skilled as humans. I will only respect such people. How can I still hold a grudge against such people?"

Tang Feng was a little stunned, and it took him a long time to react: it turned out that the other party had a sense of understanding the ability to understand the confusion and respect him. If I had known that this would be the ending, I would have let the confusion and fight with you. I thought that although I thought so, Tang Feng would not show it. It was just that Lian Zan Zu Dashou was broad-minded and was a man.

Zu Dashou was a little embarrassed by Tang Feng's praise, and he smiled and said, "If you really respect your ancestors, don't be so disgusted. Call me ancestors from now on, I'll call you brothers!"

Tang Feng was happy with his simplicity, so he called out without refusal: "Old Ancestor!" After Zu Dashou responded, he smiled and took a big sip of tea, and then said: "Since you and I are brothers, then the ancestor wants to ask you something. This, I see that your book boy is really great, and the bastards under my command don't even have half of his ability. Can you let him teach them a few tricks?"

It turned out that this guy who looked reckless and honest would also plot against others. Tang Feng felt funny, but his favor for Zu Dashou still increased a little. Then he looked at the puzzle and said, "If you don't mind his martial arts skills, of course I won't refuse. Are you willing to teach them to solve the puzzle?" The following words were asked to solve the puzzle.

When he solved the doubts, he saw that Zu Dashou had not made things difficult for Tang Feng, he was also a little happy. Now that the young master spoke again, he certainly would not refuse, so he nodded and said, "Of course this is not a problem. But I have learned a lot of martial arts of close-fitting fighting, and I am afraid it will not be of much use in front of the two armies." After he fought with those people, he knew their characteristics, so he spoke like this.

"Once the melee starts, these close abilities will be useful. If you have more skills, don't suppress yourself. Since you agree, then the ancestor will thank you on behalf of the brothers. When those people are injured, I will ask them to apologize to you!" Zu Dashou did not refuse to explain his confusion, and immediately confirmed the matter, which made Tang Feng laugh secretly.

After this small conflict, Tang Feng also formed a little friendship with the generals headed by Zu Dashou and got the desired result in Ningyuan City. After Sun Chengzong learned about this, he also smiled and said that he was lucky. He originally planned to go back in the next few days, but since he had to teach the soldiers martial arts, Sun Chengzong decided to stay for a few more days.

On this day, in order to try how much Tang Feng knew about military affairs, Sun Chengzong asked him and Yuan Chonghuan to try to simulate the battle on the map. Although Tang Feng was eventually defeated by Yuan Chonghuan, Sun Chengzong was still very satisfied with his progress. At least in this manual simulated battle, Tang Feng no longer looked like a man who just understood military affairs. However, Sun Chengzong knew that this was not accurate after all, so he said to Tang Feng earnestly: "Yizhi, although I have given you all my knowledge, if you really want to talk about military use, what you know is still very limited. The real battlefield is completely different from the ones in this way, so when it comes to that time, you must learn to calm down and think twice.

Tang Feng knew the allusion of "talking about war on paper", so of course he didn't want to be Zhao Kuo anymore, so he nodded and said: "The officials have been taught, and the way of using war is mostly accumulated experience. The officials have never been on the battlefield, so of course they won't be too clear about this."

"If you think so, I will feel at ease." Sun Chengzong pointed to the map in front of me and said, "Now Jianlu has occupied most of my territory in Liaodong. If you want to get it back in the future, you have to rely on young people like you. I, an old man, can return to my hometown to enjoy my old age."

Tang Feng just wanted to comfort the old general, but suddenly found that there was a place on the map that made him feel a little touched. He looked carefully and found that it was Jinzhou City hundreds of miles away from Ningyuan. "Jinzhou... Jinzhou..." Tang Feng said several times in his heart before remembering that this place was occupied by the Ming army in history, but why is it still under the control of the Jurchens? Of course, he couldn't remember that Jinzhou was captured by Sun Chengzong in the fifth year of the Tianqi period, but he remembered one thing, that is, it was not difficult to capture Jinzhou City. So he immediately mentioned it: "Sir, Brother Yuan, although the number of troops in our Ming Dynasty in Liaodong now may not be the opponents of the Jurchens, they can't always defend themselves and wait for them to attack, right? I thought we should take advantage of the opportunity when the Jurchens did not come to invade this time."

"Oh, let's talk about it, what should we do?" Seeing that Tang Feng suddenly made this point, Sun Chengzong was also interested and asked. Tang Feng pointed at Jinzhou and said, "This is a transportation hub in Liaodong. If we can occupy this place, we can advance, attack, retreat and defend, and not in the current situation. I wonder what you two think?"

Yuan Chonghuan's eyes lit up when he heard this. Of course, he knew the importance of Jinzhou's location and had made up his mind. However, Sun Chengzong has always been just seeking stability, so he couldn't say it. Now that Tang Feng said it, he agreed.

Sun Chengzong could see that the two people in front of him had such plans, but he was always cautious and did not rush to answer them. Instead, he looked at Jinzhou on the map and became stunned. After a while, he said: "We can see the key location here, and he can also see that Jianlu can see it. I'm afraid it's not that easy to take him off. Now the border is rare. If Jiannu invades this, it will be a waste of money."

Tang Feng knew that after Sun Chengzong took Jinzhou in history, although the Jurchens sent troops to attack, they eventually returned in disgrace. He did not agree with his point of view. However, he could not convince the other party with such reasons. After thinking about it, he had an idea: "Sir, this Jinzhou is worth it! I remember when I interrogated the Jurchen spy that day, he once said that although the Jurchens occupied most of my Liaodong territory, they were just people who lived with water and plants, and did not pay much attention to the role of the city. I am afraid that this Jinzhou would not be taken seriously by them. Even if there were many defenders in it, there would not be too many."

Sun Chengzong also knew about this situation. He couldn't help but become interested and nodded, "If this is the case, we can take the opportunity to take Jinzhou to deal with Jianlu. However, this matter is so important that we have to check it carefully before ordering it."
