Yang Yiqing, who came to power due to Zhu Zhixiu's rebellion, first held the first Ming Dynasty Games after Zhu Shou's time travel, and then was kicked to three sides to fend off the Mongols. Zhu Shou's little wings have already controlled Mr. Yang's life. Fanned beyond recognition.
The same fate as him was Qiu Yue.
At this moment, these two people were sitting in the restaurant, accompanying Zhang Yong and Ma Ang, talking about world affairs.
"After the Holy Lord killed the nine clans in Qinian, it is a rare thing for the rebels to get stronger and stronger." Qiu Yue not only knew the soldiers, but also knew the relationship between the big bosses in the court. What he said was also very clear. Extraordinary.
Yang Yiqing was his old superior. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "One is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer. What's so strange about it?"
During the battle at Liujiazhuang on the banks of the Hutuo River, Hejian general Zhang Yunlin led his troops to break through, and the supervisor Du Yu surrendered to the rebels.
After Zhu Shou met Zhang Yunlin who rushed over in a hurry, he not only did not punish him, but even comforted him. He also transferred 5,000 cavalry troops from the regiment camp for his command. Qin, who was appointed as the new supervisor of the cavalry army, Yong is also an old friend of Zhu Shou's when he was the crown prince, and he is from Ganzhou Wuwei. Counting that, he and Zhang Yunlin are actually fellow villagers.
Among the three young generals overseeing the army, two were fellow villagers. This kind of harmonious colleague relationship was unprecedented in the Ming Dynasty.
Not only that, Zhu Shou also summoned the chief military officer of the thieves, Hui'an Bo Zhang Wei, and the admiral of military affairs, and the censor of the right capital, Tu Jian, to Zhending Fucheng. He was called the Counselor of Painting. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhang The two beast tamers, Commander-in-Chief and Admiral Tu, were put into cages by the emperor, but instead they completely released the three tigers.
Sure enough, within a few days, the rebels, whose number expanded to 8,000, marched from Shulu County, crossed Baichikou, southward to Shenhe and Nangong, and finally captured Qinghe County in Guangping Prefecture. Not only did they not disturb Zhu Shou. They were staying in the palace, and they had no intention of heading westward at all.
On June 24, the fourth year of Zhengde, the Ming army and the rebels fought at Jiamaying in Wucheng County. This place is close to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and is an important place for Dongchang Prefecture in Shandong Province. It is also the east entrance of Beizhili. The only way to pass through Shandong.
Baoding Shenjiang Qian cast in this battle and became famous in the first battle. He broke into the siege of the rebels with a thousand heavy-armored infantry troops, fought bloody for two hours, and firmly dragged the rebels to the north bank of the canal. Zhang Yunlin and Song Jixian's double team bought time for victory.
The battle of Jiamaying was the first cooperation between the three generals. The leader of the rebels only escaped with his life, and thousands of rebels were killed on both sides of the canal.
Du Yu, the former supervisor who had just surrendered to the rebels, was captured alive on the battlefield. But surprisingly, the three generals did not kill him, but sent him to Zhu Shou's temporary palace.
At this time, Zhu Shou had already arrived at Baoding Prefecture from Zhending Mansion. The emperor, who had been playing outside for more than half a year, was finally returning to Beijing, which was the only good news in the war.
Just when everyone thought that Du Yu would be cut down by a thousand cuts, Zhu Shou actually pardoned his death penalty and exiled him to Yizhou, which caught the attention of many onlookers.
When Du Yu went to Yizhou, it was not called exile. Everyone knew that he and Luo Xiang were besties who wore the same pair of trousers, and they betrayed Liu Jin and Boss Liu together.
When he went to Yizhou, he obviously went to enjoy the blessings!
Not only the supervisors who surrendered to the enemy before the battle were able to enjoy the blessings, but even the leaders of the rebels, who were like lost dogs, also made a comeback in Pingyuan County, Jinan Prefecture.
Not only did they defeat Zhang Yunlin who was following closely behind them, but they also expanded their army to more than 3,000 men.
A group of bandit leaders and three generals marched and fought, leading the war from Beizhili to Shandong! If it were not for Qingzhou Prefecture, the rebels would have been ambushed by Mao Bowen, the magistrate of Shouguang, on the banks of the Juyang River, and fled in embarrassment to
Yishan, and probably the whole of Shandong, will fall into war.
Mao Bowen was a Jinshi in the third year of Zhengde. He was well versed in military affairs and was one of the famous officials of Jiajing in the official history. In the official history, he should have been living freely in the mountains and rivers of Wuyue. Unfortunately, as Zhu Shou traveled through time, his life also changed.
Huge changes.
Compared with Mao Xiangmao, who served as a general and became a prime minister, the military level of the rebels was undoubtedly not good enough. Moreover, Mao Bowen was also deeply supported by the gentry in several prefectures. The men he led were not weak guardsmen, but
He was a well-equipped servant, so it was very reasonable that the rebels were defeated.
But something unreasonable happened again.
Less than half a month after the Battle of Juyangshui, when Zhu Shou's mighty guard of honor entered the capital, a group of thieves rushed out of Yishan again, defeated General Qian Zhuqian who came to encircle and suppress them, and took advantage of the situation to seize the
Yishui County!
Zhang Yong coughed and reminded these two guys that as a big eunuch, he was still sitting in front of them, so he shouldn't say too much.
Ma Ang had no idea about the intentions of these three people, and he was too lazy to meddle in the business of these famous people in the court. As long as his biological sister was around, Ma Guojiu was the Great Wall of Zhengde that could not fall. No matter how strong the wind and rain were, they could not blow it.
onto him.
However, he was the deputy commander-in-chief of Yansui. After all, Yang Yiqing was also his immediate superior. When he was invited as a guest this time, he made up his mind to only drink and not talk.
Since Uncle Ma was unwilling to talk, Admiral Zhang did not take the initiative to provoke him. The two of them were not old friends, nor were they superiors or subordinates, so they had no friendship at all. Besides, given Lao Zhang's status in the palace, he could not fault Uncle Ma.
I am willing to attend the banquet this time purely for Yang Yiqing's sake.
He went to Weiyuan Guards to investigate Yang Yiqing's background, and brought a group of royal guards and the emperor's personal troops, ready to chop off General Yang's head at any time and use it as credit for himself.
Admiral Zhang was aware of General Yang's reputation, but he didn't care. Admiral Zhang, who even dared to beat Liu Jin and Boss Liu, looked at the entire Ming Dynasty. Apart from the emperor, who else could he take seriously?
However, when they arrived in Weiyuan, Admiral Zhang had a good impression of General Yang, because General Yang not only knew soldiers, but was also as resourceful as a sea of strategists.
The most important thing is that this civil servant boss actually looks like a eunuch.
Admiral Zhang of the True Eunuch Party immediately conducted the first test on Mr. Yang who looked like the Eunuch Party: "I heard that someone in the palace has correspondence with Mongolia?"
General Manager Yang really wanted to touch Admiral Zhang's forehead, but he didn't have a fever. How could he prank his political opponents like this? Do you really think Boss Liu is a blockhead?
"It's unreasonable!" Mr. Yang's answer was the same as Qin Hui's hundreds of years ago, with a full official tone.
Admiral Zhang immediately became angry and shouted: "Then the fact that you had correspondence with Mongolia, is it possible that it is groundless?"
President Yang shamelessly asked, "I'm sitting on the same boat with you. If I sink, you will sink as well. What can I do?"
Admiral Zhang sneered and said, "I don't think so?"
Mr. Yang sighed: "The Holy One has been deceived by the wise men. Eunuch Zhang does not want to serve the Emperor, but he is entangled with me here over trivial matters. It is unwise."
Admiral Zhang was not annoyed. Instead, he became interested, turned his anger into a smile, and asked: "Who is the admiral?"
However, President Yang stopped talking. He excused himself because he was busy with official duties and left.
The two of them traveled westward together from Weiyuan Guard to Yulin Guard. Admiral Zhang suddenly became patient and no longer wanted to behead President Yang. He chatted with Yang Yiqing all day long, focusing on Liu Jin.
.
How could Yang Yiqing easily board Admiral Zhang's pirate ship and risk his bright future on an unknown conspiracy?
He is not afraid of Zhang Yongcha himself, because he also has a trump card, which is enough to make Admiral Zhang his most loyal ally at any time.
No one would reveal their trump cards easily, and neither would Yang Yiqing.
He is still investigating Zhang Yong: Can this powerful old eunuch defeat the established emperor?
There is only one trump card, and there is only one chance. You can only succeed. If you fail, not only will Yang Yiqing's head be lost, but the whole world will probably be shed with blood.
Admiral Zhang kept testing Yang Yiqing, and General Yang also kept checking Zhang Yong.
The first thing is to be a human being.
Zhang Yong was domineering and had a bad temper, but Yang Yiqing did not value this. The standard of conduct in his eyes was different from that of ordinary people. What he valued was Zhang Yong's political personality.
Eunuchs are also human beings, with emotions and various shortcomings, but in politics, these shortcomings are not shortcomings. The only indicator of political personality is where you stand.
Position is all about political personality.
Yang Yiqing is also one of the Great Walls of the civil service group, and his stance determines his words and deeds. Unlike Wang Shouren, a saint who has no external things in his heart, Yang Yiqing cannot yet have no external things in his heart. He hopes that Zhang Yong can defeat Liu
In this battle, he stood firmly in the camp of the civil service group.
There are no eternal enemies and no eternal allies. Zhang Yong, the boss of the eunuch group, seemed to understand Yang Yiqing's intentions. In the following days, his party members never impeached any civil servant boss.
Even in the Xu Mu case in May of the fourth year of Zhengde, he stood on the side of the civil servant group, started a battle with Liu Jin, and saved the lives of more than ten civil servants.
Yang Yiqing was very satisfied with Admiral Zhang's wise move, but it was not enough for him to be a qualified person. He also had to look at his temperament and means.
Admiral Zhang was a gangster, he was good at fighting, he was good at robbing people's fields, and he occasionally killed a few good people out of interest. These qualities were not within the scope of Yang Yiqing's investigation.
It wasn't until he saw that Zhang Yongtong's army was strict and strictly prohibited his soldiers and guards from disturbing the people, and any offenders would be beheaded! Then Yang Yiqing clapped his hands and laughed: He is indeed a great husband!
Zhang Yong's bad moral character is a matter of personal morality.
Since ancient times, politicians have never valued virtue. What really ruined them was not only being in the wrong position, but also not being ruthless enough in their methods and resolute in their character.
Zhang Yong was able to restrain the imperial guards and the emperor's personal troops very well. No one dared to violate Admiral Zhang's orders along the way. You must know that these gentlemen have always walked sideways in the Ming Dynasty.
It is normal to kill dozens of people if they say that they are disturbing the people.
This is the embodiment of Zhang Yong's character and methods.
Yang Yiqing nodded with satisfaction again.
But these are not enough. A battle with Liu Jin is a huge gamble. Both sides are betting on their own lives!
"Admiral Zhang gave all the money he earned to his soldiers!" One day, a deputy commander said jokingly in front of Yang Yiqing.
Admiral Zhang's method of making money is no worse than that of Boss Liu. Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, based on this skill, he can at least be ranked among the top ten.
So much money was given to soldiers? Yang Yiqing was a little suspicious, so he investigated secretly.
The truth is always shocking. Zhang Yong not only pocketed all the money, but also strictly ordered his subordinates to engage in corruption and bribery.
This is a genius!
At this point, General Manager Yang finally fell in love with Admiral Zhang, and their love blossomed on the land of northern Shaanxi.
However, love seems not enough. There is too much ambiguity in front of them. There is always a lack of someone between Admiral Zhang and President Yang to pierce the window paper.
In ancient China, every epic love story had a matchmaker.
Ma Ang and Qiu Yue, who had just returned from a mission to Mongolia, became Zhang Yang's matchmakers.
