Chapter 1056 The Old Man Is Much Better Than Lian Po
The extremely cold place in Mobei is naturally far less fertile than the Hetao grassland, and now it is because of the great Ming Dynasty's vigorous development of the Hetao that it has become a granary integrating planting and grazing.This territory is a temptation for any Mongolian tribe.

Set up a naturalized governor in Hetao and garrison heavy troops to prevent Hetao from being coveted by others.Originally, the focus of defense was on the Bushi rabbit who fled to the west. After he was destroyed and the western Mongolia surrendered to Ming Dynasty, the focus of defense shifted to the Khalkha Mongolia in Mobei.Although it was separated by the Daqing Mountains, Hong Chengchou still sent Yebushou to monitor the movement of Khalkha.

If it weren't for Hetao's ruins, everything was in the early stages of creation, and he even had plans to send troops to Mobei. After all, using offense instead of defense is the best defense.

Of course, having said that, even though Western Mongolia surrendered to Daming, they had to guard against it.However, this is the main responsibility of Yang Sichang, the governor of Baotou. He also sent Yebu to the western Mongolia, and because of this, he was able to quickly know the news that Gushi Khan led the troops to leave.

After everything was explained, Hong Chengchou led a cavalry army of nearly [-], and marched mightily towards the eastern Mongolian grassland.His army is all cavalry, this is the confidence of Hetao, there are plenty of war horses!

On Shanhaiguan, Sun Chengzong, the governor of Jiliao and the assistant minister of the cabinet, led the civil and military generals on the front line of Guanning, and stood on the top of the city overlooking the direction of the capital.

As the sun rose gradually, Zuo Yingxuan, who participated in the military affairs, said to Sun Chengzong: "If you don't accept it at night, you will report in the future. The emperor should be far away from Shanhaiguan. Why don't you go to the archery tower to rest first!"

"Yes, Mr. Ge, you can go and rest for a while!" The other officials listened and persuaded them one after another.

After hearing this, Sun Chengzong looked away, turned his head to look at them, and said with a smile: "Why, do you think this old man is too old? Tell you, this old man is much better than Lian Po! Some of you don't even eat as much as this old man !"

After speaking with a smile, he turned his head and looked at the distance of the official road again, his smile disappeared slowly, revealing an incomparable solemnity, and he said slowly: "Jianlu is raging in Liaodong, but my Daming can only retreat to Ningjin On the front line, the entire Liaodong is lost, facing this situation, I really can’t sleep at night. Unexpectedly, now it’s time for the emperor’s personal conquest to completely recover Liaodong!"

Hearing his emotion, these subordinates of Sun Chengzong also fell silent one after another, and turned their heads to look at the distance of the official road, feeling full of emotion in their hearts.

When they faced the ravages of Jianlu, they felt really great pressure.Sometimes, I even wondered whether Guan Ning could keep it?After Master Ge supervised Liaodong, the method he came up with to deal with Jianlu was to take advantage of Daming's strengths in defending the city and build the city all the way from the Daling River, hoping to use this fortress tactic against the raging Jianlu.

But why don't they know that, firstly, whether this method of building the city can be successfully built is a problem. After all, Jianlu is not a fool, so how can he let you calmly build the city; secondly, the cost of building the city is very high, no one It can be felt that the imperial court can really afford to build cities one after another.

However, if this method of building the city was not used, Daming would not be an opponent of Jianlu in the wild.If you are passively beaten, you will only lose one city after another.It is more likely that Jianlu once again bypassed the natural dangers of Shanhaiguan and went to plunder the pass.At that time, those officials who were stationed at Shanhaiguan mainly to guard against Jianlu must be responsible for this.

In the past, who would have expected that in such an unsolvable situation, the emperor used a series of methods to beat Jianlu, who was arrogant, and now he can only defend passively, just like the Guan Ning army back then.What is different from Jianlu back then is that Daming holds a siege weapon in his hands, that is, the Hongyi cannon.If Jianlu wants to defend the city like the Guanning Army did before, it will only end with the city being destroyed and the entire army wiped out.

Thirty years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, it is precisely because these civil servants and military generals on the head of Shanhaiguan City have experienced the ravages of Jianlu, and now they are compared with each other, and they are full of emotion.It is also for this reason that Sun Chengzong is willing to stand on the top of the city, thinking about seeing the scene of Yu Jia appearing in the field of vision.Otherwise, with his status as a veteran of the four dynasties and the teacher of the Emperor Tianqi, he would wait until the emperor arrived at the city of Shanhaiguan before coming out to greet him, and no one would gossip.

At this time, Sun Chengzong had white hair and white beard, and the wind above the city was a bit strong, making his white beard flutter under his forehead.Today, he is over 70 years old. If in the original history, he had been disarmed and returned to the farmland because of the defeat of Daling River, and soon after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs and attacked Gaoyang, he led his family and the people in the city to resist.After the city was broken, the whole family died together.Of course, on this plane, his fate has been completely changed.

Suddenly, Zuo Yingxuan pointed to the official road and said loudly: "Hey, it seems that the royal driver is here!"

After all, Sun Chengzong was old, so he looked intently for a while before he saw a fast horse galloping towards the official road.So fast, it must be that Yu Jia has not far away and rushed back to report.

Sure enough, the fast horse galloped there, and before reaching the city of Shanhaiguan, he straightened his upper body on the horseback and shouted loudly: "The army led by the emperor is less than five miles away from Shanhaiguan! The army led by the emperor ..."

Hearing this, the civil servants and generals on the top of the city couldn't help but get excited.Your Majesty, we are finally going to Shanhaiguan!Many of them, under normal circumstances, would never have had the chance to meet the emperor, and now they will finally meet.Thinking of this, they became even more eager to see the emperor as soon as possible.

This is not to say that when they see the emperor, they will be promoted and get rich.It was the current emperor who impressed them too deeply.They really wanted to see what this young emperor, who reversed the situation in Liaodong with one hand and suppressed Jianlu with no power to resist, looked like.
Even Sun Chengzong, who had already met the emperor, had the same thought.The position is different, and he knows far more things than his subordinates.The same is true, even though he has gone through four dynasties and has read a lot of books, he still admires this young great son of heaven very much.

The most critical move in the situation in Liaodong is actually to cut off the sources of military supplies and intelligence for Jianlu in Liaodong.This is easy to say, but it can only be done by an emperor with great courage and great wisdom.Even with Sun Chengzong's own senior qualifications, he couldn't do this.

Thinking of the fact that the emperor didn't move, and when he moved, from the top of the court to Shanxi, he was as noble as Shoufu and Zuodu Yushi, and as humble as those Shanxi merchants and border guards, and secretly mobilized the white pole army thousands of miles away. Uproot them all together.This method is so high that it has never been seen in all dynasties.

You know, if such a big matter is not handled properly, the counterattack of these people will be very powerful. Even the emperor may not be able to withstand the desperate counterattack of these people.

However, in the end, the emperor did it. Not only did he get a lot of money, but he also temporarily solved the problems of the frontier army's salary arrears, and Jianlu became blind, deaf, and short of food. One point, in the past few years, we have continued to attack these weaknesses of Jianlu, with half the effort, and we have achieved the great situation in Liaodong today!
Sun Chengzong was recalling the past when he heard the people around him saying in surprise: "Here we come, we come, see?"

Hearing the sound, he came back to his senses, looked intently, and indeed saw an army approaching in the distance of the official road.The big flag fluttering in the wind, although it is far away, can be seen clearly, it is the national flag of Ming Dynasty appointed by the emperor.Behind the national flag is the canopy used by the emperor.The bright yellow color can be seen even from a long distance.

"Let's go, follow the old man down to greet you!" Sun Chengzong said without hesitation, and then strode away. With this walking speed, even the young civil servants behind him had to take small steps to keep up. .At this time, Sun Chengzong was no worse than any young man!

Ever since leaving the capital, Emperor Chongzhen's imperial driver has been at the forefront of the army.Of course, in front of him, there will naturally be no warning marches at night.But it was also because of this that the cities along the way knew about the emperor's personal conquest.

The land of Gyeonggi was severely harmed by Jianlu once, and because of this, the people in Gyeonggi deeply hated Jianlu.I heard that the emperor's personal expedition to Liaodong, all of a sudden, thousands of people were empty, and almost all the people ran to the sides of the official road to wait. They wanted to see the army of the imperial conquest with their own eyes, and they also wanted to see their emperor!

Originally, the magistrates were afraid, because they were afraid that there would be uncontrollable scenes when there were too many people.But how could Emperor Chongzhen allow them to prohibit the people from watching, and finally the local army and yamen servants maintained order.

Although Emperor Chongzhen did not show the emperor's ceremonial guard, a canopy can already explain his identity.And he was wearing a golden helmet and gold armor. He looked as majestic as a god at first glance. Compared with other people around him, he looked extraordinarily eye-catching.As long as the common people are not blind, they should know who their emperor is!
As a result, along the way, Emperor Chongzhen gained countless achievement points, and even he doubted whether the display of achievement points would overflow due to insufficient digits.Looking at the massive achievement points in the lower left corner of the chat group, Emperor Chongzhen was relieved that the achievement points could be used casually in this battle.

Seeing the No. 300 pass in the world from a distance, Emperor Chongzhen was riding on horseback, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: So what if it is the No. [-] pass in the world?Defending the enemy from invading and defending the country has never been something that can be solved only by defense.In the original history, the Manchu Qing finally entered the Central Plains from this pass, and finally poisoned the world.As a result, Huaxia has been occupied for nearly [-] years. Whether it is technology, military or other things, it has been abandoned by the whole world. In the end, even a small island country like the Wa Kingdom can ride on China's head and do its best. It is really sad and sad!

Thinking of this, as they got closer, Emperor Chongzhen looked at the civil servants and military generals standing on the side of the official road at the foot of Shanhaiguan City. is compelling.He naturally recognized that this old man was Sun Chengzong.

At the same time, Sun Chengzong also led the civil servants and generals of Liaodong, and they were all looking at Emperor Chongzhen.Their first impression is just one word: wise and powerful!Especially the emperor is young, wearing a golden helmet and armor, riding on a tall horse, he is really a dragon among men!
"Veteran Sun Chengzong, welcome long live, long live, long live!" Sun Chengzong took the lead to welcome the emperor.

"My minister Liaodong Brigade and Dao participated in politics and left to be elected, welcome..."

"The last general, Ningyuan Commander He Kegang, welcome..."

"..."

Sun Chengzong didn't need to report his official name, but others reported their official positions one after another and saluted the emperor together.

Emperor Chongzhen saw him, and with a smile, he jumped off his horse vigorously, walked quickly to Sun Chengzong, stretched out his hands and said, "Sun Qing, please get up quickly!"

After helping Sun Chengzong up, he told the others: "Everyone is safe!"

Sun Chengzong didn't expect that the emperor would get off his horse and come to help him in person, so he didn't dare to be pretentious, he got up quickly following the emperor's gesture, and then played again: "Your Majesty's army and horses are exhausted, the old minister has arranged for the camp, please rest well and take care of the dragon's body! "

"I'm in good health, it's okay!" Emperor Chongzhen listened, looked at Sun Chengzong with a smile and said, "It's Sun Qing, I want to know, Lian Po is old, can he still eat?"

Hearing this, Sun Chengzong also laughed, and immediately raised his head and played back: "Your Majesty has an order, and the old ministers can raise their swords and mount their horses, enter Shenyang City, and take the head of the slave chief!"

Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen laughed, and the other courtiers also laughed.Unknowingly, a few words of dialogue between the monarch and his ministers melted away the strangeness of these courtiers when they first met the king.

Emperor Chongzhen then looked at Zuo Yingxuan, smiled and said: "Although Zuo Qing was born in Juren, I often hear about Zuo Qing's talents. I am so relieved! The imperial examination is just a means to select talents, but it cannot Determine the pillars of the country. Zuo Qing is an example, when this war is over, I will not care about my background, I will definitely reward you for your merits."

To be honest, Juren's background made Zuo Yingxuan feel inferior when he met his colleagues who were Jinshi.At the same time, those who came from Jinshi, although their official positions may be lower than him, still have their pride and circle.

Although he was promoted to the army and participated in politics because of his contribution in the defense of Changli, he was also grateful for the grace and conscientiously worked hard and fulfilled his duties, but the identity of Juren was ultimately a pain in his heart.But what he didn't expect was that the emperor would come to talk to him after Mr. Sun Ge under the watchful eyes of everyone, and he didn't care whether he was a successor or not, and even encouraged him so much. Suddenly, he felt his own strength. The hard work is worth it, why don't you care about Juren's background, with the emperor's kindness, this life is enough!
Thinking of this, he wanted to be grateful for the ceremony, but was stopped by Emperor Chongzhen, so he asked with a smile: "I sent a group of scholars to come here to follow Qing to learn the local governance of Liaodong. Now, I want to ask Qing , is it possible to use it?"

In these words, there is a strong confidence that Liaodong will definitely be recovered in this battle, and this group of officials will be used.
