After Mu Ying praised Li Wei, the generals still refused to agree. Although they did not have any life-or-death feud with Li Wei, the banquet given by Zhengdan and the incident of Lan Yu made them very hostile to this new rising star. of civil servants.
"Your Majesty, Shenji's profit lies in firearms. The general thought that it would be enough for us to bring firearms and go on an expedition. There is no need for Mr. Li to accompany the army!"
Hu Hai said, of course the generals like them knew the advantages and disadvantages of firearms, and they were also very greedy. However, whether or not to give firearms to anyone depends on His Majesty's wishes.
Moreover, under the guard system, soldiers and generals are separated, and it is useless for them to come, because the troops they lead this time will not be commanded by anyone next time. Of course, except for Li Wei's Shenji Battalion, the Shenji Battalion has always been commanded by him. The admiral is responsible for operations and commanding operations.
This is also something that makes the generals very jealous.
"I'll give you the firearm, can you use it?" Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly and displeasedly.
"I thought..." Hu Hai was about to agree when he suddenly remembered that the firearms in the Shenji camp were different from the previous ones. He really didn't know how to use them. He paused and said with a guilty conscience: "The general can learn them."
"How can we not have time for you to learn? Why don't we let the army wait for you to learn before setting off?"
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately shouted loudly.
Facing the angry Zhu Yuanzhang, the generals suddenly felt awe-inspiring and shut up one after another. Hu Hai also quickly lowered his head, not daring to speak anymore.
Zhu Yuanzhang shocked everyone and snorted dissatisfied, and then arranged the specific matters for the expedition.
"In this expedition, Fu Youde will be the general in the southern expedition, Mu Ying and Wang Bi will be the left and right deputy generals, and the others will go with the army. There must be no mistakes!"
"I obey the order!"
Fu Youde and the generals immediately bowed to receive the order. Li Wei was stunned for a moment and did not react. Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes immediately swept over.
"I obey the decree." Li Wei quickly shouted after him.
Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a displeased look, and then ordered someone to get the map and formulate a strategy himself.
The map of Kantu was unfolded. Zhu Yuanzhang left the dragon chair and came to the map of Kanmap. In an instant, he transformed from a majestic emperor into a victorious general on the battlefield. He directed the map of Kanmap and said:
"If you want to capture Yunnan, you must first conquer Qujing. The land of Qujing is the throat of Yunnan. Once Qujing is conquered, Yunnan will be destroyed..."
Zhu Yuanzhang talked eloquently, and all the soldiers nodded repeatedly, very convinced.
Every time the army went on an expedition, he would formulate a combat strategy, and the facts proved countless times how wise and powerful his arrangements were.
In the Battle of Lingbei in the fifth year of Hongwu's reign, the strategy he formulated was to use Xu Da's middle route army to move slowly to lure the enemy, and to surprise the east and west routes, and to attack together with three routes.
However, Xu Da violated this strategic arrangement. Under the leadership of Lan Yu, a human-headed dog, he underestimated the enemy and rushed in. He was ambushed and was defeated miserably.
Even Xu Da, the number one hero, was not as good as Zhu Yuanzhang. Naturally, these generals did not dare to look down upon him and listened carefully to Zhu Yuanzhang's arrangements.
But Li Wei didn't even know the names of these places. Listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words was like listening to the history teacher's lectures, and he was confused and confused.
In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang's idea is easy to understand. The general idea is to send a general to lead his troops from Yongning to contain the chieftain's troops from the north, while the main army will follow the river, land and occupy key areas along the way, and then go straight to Qujing.
It will be simple from now on, Qujing is gone, and King Liang cannot defend Yunnan.
"After Yunnan is pacified, you can divide your forces and capture Dali. With the early warning, Dali will be destroyed. The remaining tribes can just send envoys to surrender. It is best if they can use their swords. If there are those who are stubborn and resist, Send more troops to take it!"
Zhu Yuanzhang arranged the war clearly one by one. Before the battle started, the overall situation was already clear.
When Li Wei heard the word Dali, his eyes suddenly lit up. He finally heard a familiar place name!
"Dali, is it the Dali of the Duan family in Dali?" Li Wei asked excitedly.
Dali Duan's Yang finger, he knows this!
The generals and Zhu Yuanzhang who were thinking about it all looked at him one after another. Seeing his excited look, Zhang Yi said in a strange way: "Master Li is really knowledgeable and talented, and he even knows about the Duan family in Dali."
When the generals heard this, they all showed sarcastic smiles. Who doesn't know this? What can you get excited about?
Li Wei rolled his eyes angrily and closed his mouth. Of course he would not tell these people that he was excited about Yi Yangzhi and Wang Yuyan.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him and continued: "If you have anything else to add, tell us and let's discuss it!"
Although he is confident, he is not blindly arrogant. The generals still have to listen to their opinions.
As the commander-in-chief, Fu Youde naturally had to be the first to speak. He stepped forward and bowed his hands before talking about some additional matters.
There is no doubt that Zhu Yuanzhang's general strategy is OK. Fu Youde mostly talked about the arrangements of some soldiers and the marching route.
Li Wei was not interested in these. He only knew that he was assigned to Mu Ying's command as expected. Several governors such as Guo Ying and Chen Huan were sent to Yongning to mobilize the surrounding garrison troops to form the North Route Army. They all followed the main force up the Yangtze River, passed through Dongting Lake and entered the Yuanjiang River in search of land.
Others also occasionally spoke and asked a few questions, but Li Wei listened and nodded, remembering what he could, and when he was ready, he went back to ask his subordinates in the Shenji Battalion.
After the war meeting, the generals retired, except Li Wei and Mu Ying.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes fell on Mu Ying and said calmly: "You should understand what is the most important point of this battle, right?"
After hearing this, Mu Ying secretly glanced at Li Wei beside her, and said with some resentment: "I understand, your Majesty, don't worry! But the leader of this expedition is General Fu, will your Majesty give him instructions as well?"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly: "Well, don't worry about this, I have my own arrangements."
Li Wei was confused as he listened to their conversation, but there were many things he didn't understand today, including this one.
"By the way, before this expedition, we will reward the soldiers. You can figure out how to deal with the money." After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he turned to Li Wei and said.
Li Wei was slightly startled: "Your Majesty, what do you mean? Shouldn't you go to the Ministry of Revenue to ask for money?"
"Humph, why should we ask you if the Ministry of Accounts has money? I heard that you made a lot of money from Minghuang Bank, which can be used to pay for the military expenses."
Zhu Yuanzhang was not polite at all and said directly.
Li Wei was startled and quickly reminded: "Your Majesty, the money of the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce is not yours alone!"
"Haha, we are all one family, why bother about this?" Zhu Yuanzhang chuckled.
Li Wei was stunned for a moment, "Good guy, I'll provide the money and fight the battles. Is this how you treat my family?"
"What about the meditative portion?"
"If he doesn't want to, let him tell us!"
Li Wei was speechless, asking Shen Jing to settle the score with you, the emperor? What a joke! (End of chapter)
