On October 25th, in the large tent of the Chinese army at the Biao camp of Xuandadu in Changping, two lanterns shed a deserted light. Lu Xiangsheng, who was wearing linen clothes, looked coldly at Yang Sichang, the minister of the Ministry of War opposite.
"I will tell you the truth today. Should the troops in the capital be united or divided? Where should the military orders come from?"
Yang Sichang's face didn't look good either. He pondered for a while and then said, "When the platform was called, the Holy One had already stated that the troops did not need to be divided. The old Gongzu (the honorific title given to Lu Xiangsheng) was the governor of King Qin's troops, so the military orders should have come from here."
Lu Xiangsheng took out a page of paper from his sleeve and put it on the table in front of Yang Sichang. "On the 12th, Lu asked Guan Ning to jointly attack the Miyun Qing army at night. This is the reply from the director to ." Yang Sichang picked it up and glanced at it hastily.
, Gao Qiqian did not simply refuse, but the words in the letter were quite rude. He first quoted the allusion of Caizhou on a snowy night, satirizing Lu Xiangsheng for choosing to attack on a moonlit night, and then said that Jiannu's cavalry moved their camps quickly, implying that Lu Xiangsheng even joined Jian's army.
The slave camp was nowhere to be found, and he ended up with the comment "It's a futile journey back and forth, but it's still a shame." Not only did he not mean to obey the order, he didn't even give Lu Xiangsheng, the aid governor, any face. No wonder Lu Xiangsheng was so angry that he couldn't calm down.
.
"But when it comes to the troops and horses of Liao Town, the troops and horses of Liao Town commanded by the director are different from those of other towns. You should know about Jian Du." Lu Xiangsheng's tone increased, "Since Lu received the sword seal, why did he still order more troops? Ji Dou
Did Chen Guowei, the commander-in-chief of the Santun Camp of the town, also belong to Liao Town? Lu originally ordered him to go to Changping to join the camp and join forces to attack the Qing army's Miyun camp at night. The troops marched outside Andingmen.
The march was ordered to be terminated. I still don’t know who issued this order? Is it the Ministry of War? Is it the cabinet? Yesterday, I got a letter from the commander-in-chief, and the department immediately transferred to Tongzhou. What is the reason for this? Which department is feasible for Lu’s military order?" Lu Xiangsheng paused for a moment.
Looking at him, he continued, "Who is Gao Qiqian, the director of the town? Why did he dismiss the soldiers and horses of Ji Town without receiving the sword seal? Today, the Ministry of War issued another order asking Lu to go to Tongzhou to meet with the director in person. What is the reason for this?
The enemy is present,
It is a taboo for military strategists to have different powers. I wonder if I think so?" Yang Sichang was a little embarrassed, but he still advised, "Today's order is an oral order from the emperor. I also feel that it is debatable, so I immediately made it clear that my father-in-law is leading the troops outside.
, traveling to and from Tongzhou is time-consuming and will inevitably delay the military situation. Fortunately, the emperor has recovered the money.
I was ordered to come to the camp one night specifically to inform you of this matter."
Lu Xiangsheng stood up and said, "My soldier, please don't evade the important and take the easy. Where do you find the military order?"
Yang Sichang was still sitting on the chair, "Don't be angry if you want to fight. The army of King Qin is elsewhere, and the military order must have come from my ancestors. As for Liao Town, I have not received a confirmed order." "Then Lu asked me again, An Ding.
During the military meeting, although it is said that there is no need to divide the troops, if the slave power goes south, one will pursue the south and the other will stay in the north. Now they are not affiliated. Which of the governors and governors will pursue the south and who will stay in the north? Or should they all pursue the south or both stay in the north? Now
slave
The two roads seem to be converging. Once they go south, it is still undecided. Will we ask for orders again?"
"This matter really needs to be decided by the Emperor..."
Lu Xiangsheng said angrily, "Since you are a soldier, it is your duty to be diligent and suppress slaves. You must submit everything to the emperor for decision. It takes several days to report back and forth. During the confrontation, the situation changes with every breath. How can you not seal the border by mistake?" Yang Sichang still did not get angry.
He just smiled bitterly and said, "Jiandou's words are unreasonable. I am in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of War, so he is just a minister of the Ministry of War. Governor Jiandou is diligent in the king's troops and horses. This is the emperor's clear decree. 'The troops do not need to be divided' is the emperor's golden mouth."
It turns out that the words "Governor-general meets and suppresses" is also approved by the emperor himself. If you and I change places, what should I do? A certain person came all night to ask what he meant and what troops were available in the capital.
Only the husband and the director
"Is it better to join forces or divide them?" "The director-general first wrote in his handwriting to stop my night attack, and then dispersed our troops. If we work together like this, it will not be as good as dividing our troops, but the ownership of each department must be clear and not ambiguous. The relationship between military and state
Things were no joke, Lu shouldered the responsibility of victory and defeat. If he did not fight for a day, rumors would spread. It had been more than thirty days since Jiannu entered the pass. The officers and soldiers had not fought a battle. The court and the wild people were arguing fiercely, saying that Donglu would stay in the north of Beijing.
Who is to blame for not fighting just to be treated? Is this soldier going to fight or make peace? He might as well fight with
Lu said bluntly, "If we want to make peace in the end, don't drag Lu in this quagmire." "If you don't want to drag your husband to stay in this quagmire, when Wu Aheng was surrounded by the wall, I went to Shuhuang.
, he asked himself to be the commander of Jizhen, and asked my husband to stay in the central center as a soldier. The emperor did not give permission, and now my husband is the commander of the army.
In this quagmire, you and I both know that Chen Xinjia is recommended to serve as the deputy governor. Does Chen Xinjia really know how to fight? Don't pretend to be confused and go away just to escape. The lives of tens of millions of people in the capital are entrusted to you.
with him?"
Lu Xiangsheng stared at Yang Sichang for a moment, "Chen Xinjia is also in charge of the care, so why do you need to know the soldiers? They can complement each other perfectly with my soldiers."
Yang Sichang's face twitched twice, "Yang never had anyone to caress him."
Lu Xiangsheng suddenly took a step closer, "I don't know who sent Zhou Yuanzhong to Shenyang!" Yang Sichang's face turned red and he looked at Lu Xiangsheng with anger, "Zhou Yuanzhong was sent by Fang Yizao.
Foolish man has rumored that he is trying to drag Mr. Yang away. If this is true, if you send a copy of the book to the public this spring, is this also evidence of collaborating with the enemy?
! Then Huang Daozhou said that the border ministers are in the wind and evening, and they are like deer and horses. Doesn't he specifically refer to Chen Xinjia? You are not in this game?" Lu Xiangsheng said with a stern voice, "Whether Lu is in this game, my soldier's heart
I know full well that the alliance under the city is ashamed of the Spring and Autumn Period. I don't know it. I should also know that only by fighting can we make peace. Jiu Nu entered the border several times, but they all got nothing and retreated wholeheartedly.
How can we talk about peace? Lu led his troops to Beijing and wanted to fight several times, but if others blocked it, what was his intention? In order to negotiate for a peace, he didn’t even care about the country’s border closures!” “Huang Daozhou, Yang Tinglin impeached Yang, is it wrong?
A loyal and unfilial man, Guo Jingchang petitioned the emperor to have Sichang punished for his crime of harming the country. These Chang'an councilors don't know how to fight, so they just say these words. Today, my father-in-law also thinks that Yang
You are wronging the country." Yang Sichang suddenly stood up and slapped the table, "There is no need for Jiandou to go to this book to ask for orders. I have Shang Fang's sword in my hand, so I will behead Yang, who is wronging the country now!"
Lu Xiangsheng also slammed the table, "Shang Fang's sword was passed around his neck first. If he fails to kill the slaves, he will not be able to add more people. If he gives up war and talks about care, and brings disaster and humiliates the country, it is beyond anyone's knowledge!"
The two people's faces were red, and they looked at each other like cockfighting cocks in the tent. When the two soldiers at the door heard the movement, they both looked over and took a look. Then a friend of the curtain came over and lowered the curtain. Yang Sichang took a breath, and the red color on his face gradually faded away.
, he glanced at Lu Xiangsheng again, and then slowly sat back on his seat. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Why would I want to stop you from carrying out a large-scale suppression? But with the reinforcements gathering, the only available troops in the capital are two governors and generals.
Rely on these two soldiers to protect the capital. If you fight with them openly and openly, once they are defeated, the world will be shocked. You will be caught in their tricks and their poisonous intentions. When the platform summons you, the emperor urges you to be safe.
That's what I mean. The only plan right now is to force the camp at night, and when the veterans of the Jiannu Division are tired, they will naturally go out." Lu Xiangsheng was still angry, but his tone was slightly calmer, "Lu agreed to force the camp at night, but my soldiers
It is completely unreasonable to use the word "poor people who sacrifice their lives". Night battles must use capable soldiers to be effective. And if you attack at night today, he will be prepared tomorrow.
, how can it be used again and again? To prevent the slaves from advancing further, we still need to have simple and powerful troops to attack the enemy in a big way, and we have to defeat the slaves in one or two formations."
Yang Sichang's tone has returned to gentleness, "You must be cautious when fighting. The money and food for the troops in the capital are limited to this amount. If the capital is shaken, the world will be shaken. Don't throw it away rashly because of the pressure of rumors." Lu Xiangsheng closed his eyes for a moment and said, "Lu
With the seal of the sword, Chang'an's tongue is as sharp as a sword. If only Wei only obeys, Yuan Chonghuan's disaster will come. Even if he has not lost his master, so what. By then, he will neither be able to fulfill his filial piety nor serve his country. What's the point of losing both loyalty and filial piety?
Come."
"Loyalty, filial piety, and integrity throughout life, don't you know that, Yang?" Lu Xiangsheng sighed deeply after hearing this, and slowly returned to his seat to sit down. Both of them were motivated by love. Yang Sichang came to Beijing last year and was impeached this year.
He is an unfaithful, unfilial and unlucky villain. The so-called loyalty and filial piety are out of the question. Lu Xiangsheng refused to seize love, but was forced to accept the position of aid governor. His situation was similar to that of Yang Sichang last year, but it was even worse.
It's urgent. Once the governor's errand is not handled well, the outcome will be even worse than that of Yang Sichang, so
I was quite touched by these words. Yang Sichang was silent for a moment and continued, "In today's court situation, the leader of peace means letting thieves go. He wants to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin. He wants to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin. If he can't win the battle, he is duplicitous. Those who don't know the war are talking nonsense.
In matters of military affairs, it is necessary to have a complete policy at the top and a knotty policy at the bottom.
I have a clear stream of bullets and medals beside me. I have timid generals under my command. In front of me are tigers and wolves. We have the hopes of hundreds of millions of souls on our shoulders. The situation is difficult and we have to make sure everything is perfect within the space of an inch. Who else can we sacrifice for our ancestors?
This is such a big responsibility." Lu Xiangsheng said no more. The two of them sat there for a long time amid the flickering lights. Finally, Yang Sichang stood up and said, "Jiandou mentioned last time that Supervisor Biaoying still owes sixty-nine thousand taels of pay this year. Yang
Try your best to raise money, elite soldiers are not easy to come by, so we must prepare for them
The national security force is a strong force." "It's sixty-nine thousand, five hundred taels." Lu Xiangsheng's tone was low, and he did not respond to Yang Sichang's hint that he did not want a war. "The governor Biao and the three towns of Xuanfu, Datong, and Shanxi only brought
Two months of food supply (Note 2), half of which has been used now.
Please also ask me to make plans early."
Yang Sichang nodded, "If Jiandou insists on recommending talents to replace him, Yang will not be able to stop him, but please think twice, Chen Xinjia is not a man who knows how to fight..."
"There is no need to mention this matter again. Since the Ministry of War wants to keep him in Changping to guard the mausoleum and supervise three of the five battalion heads, he is the new governor of Xuanda. He was originally his troops, so Lu will only lead
"Central Camp and Left Camp" Yang Sichang hesitated for a moment. The Dubiao Camp was directly under Governor Xuanda, with a total of five battalions of about 7,000 people. Such a division would make the strength even more insufficient. Both Yang Sichang and Lu Xiangsheng understood that the Qing army
They are here to grab money and food. There are almost no people who specially go to the imperial mausoleum. The troops guarding the mausoleum are wasted, but no one dares to say that they will not defend. Just like the garrison in Fengyang, Jiangbei cannot mobilize it no matter how urgent it is.
Because no one can bear the responsibility for that crime, so in the end
After all, a force had to be detached. Chen Xinjia was the governor-general of Xuanda who succeeded Lu Xiangsheng. It was decided that he would guard the mausoleum in Changping, so Lu Xiangsheng had to divide the Supervisory Biao Battalion to him.
"The current situation is unstable. Everything here is entrusted to my ancestors. Don't waste your time fighting."
After Yang Sichang said this, he walked to the door and opened the door curtain. A burst of snowflakes flew into the tent with the wind. Just as he was about to lift his feet and go out, he heard Lu Xiangsheng saying behind him, "I'm going to test the Shinto inscription first. I thank you here."
." Yang Sichang turned around and the two of them looked at each other. In the dim light, their faces were not very clear. Lu Xiangsheng was the official of the Nine Frontiers, and he and Yang Sichang, the Minister of War, exchanged letters frequently. He had already thanked him in the letter for this matter.
, mentioning it again on this occasion of separation, seems to have another meaning. Lu Xiangsheng in the tent was sitting solemnly, with no intention of sending him off. Yang Sichang stared at it for a moment, his throat rolled twice, but in the end he did not say anything.
He buried his head and walked out, swinging the door curtain back and forth a few times to isolate the inside and outside of the big tent again.
