"Hey, how can your Majesty order these two people to accompany you?"
"Could it be that I, Dafeng Chao, can't be a decent normal person?"
Qi Yu's self-questioning made Yu Hai, who was listening, fall into thinking.
Needless to say, he really analyzed it.
Master Yu felt that the emperor used them both out of helplessness, while the other did it deliberately.
Just listen to what he said: "Since the Song Dynasty, the imperial court has developed a political system that values civility over military affairs. Under the constraints of this system, it is difficult for generals to get a chance to get ahead. Except for the years of war and chaos, generals basically Don’t have any say.”
"And the same is true for this dynasty. Apart from the founding fathers who have been dead for decades, how can there be any good military generals? With no choice, the emperor has no choice but to appoint Wang Zhifan and his like. Unless, he is willing It is a perverse act to revive the deposed vassal king again."
This is true.
Practical generals not only need to be carefully selected, but also need a certain amount of time to grow, and there is absolutely no rush.
In other words, at present, we can only choose generals from among the cripples.
Oh no, I heard that Wang Zhifan is now a lame man.
And based on the principle of using the familiar rather than the raw, it was natural to choose him. And this is the helpless move that Mr. Yu mentioned just now.
As for the use of Sandoku, he thought it was intentional.
Any civil servant can hold the post of supervisor of the army. In that case, why must he be appointed as an eunuch?
Qi Yu shook his head and sighed: "As far as eunuchs are concerned, although most of them are loyal to the royal family, their abilities are seriously lacking. There is almost no second person in history who can take on big responsibilities like the Sanbao eunuch." ."
Putting aside secular prejudices, Qi Dalang still made an objective evaluation.
Eunuchs are not unavailable, but there is a prerequisite, that is, you must have this ability.
He is a man of three virtues, even if he doesn't know a few characters in Douda, how can he talk about supervising the army?
Yu Hai smiled and said: "The reason why the emperor appointed him may be because he was unwilling to use civil servants."
"Oh? Why?"
"Since the emperor wants to establish his authority, he just wants to show his courtiers that this battle can still be fought even without them. Of course, his confidence mainly comes from the superiority in military strength."
Well, that seems to make sense! It seems that this time is not only a display of martial arts, but also a sense of competition.
Ranwen
The mentality is not right!
Qi Yu stroked his beard and said quietly: "Marching and fighting is like playing a military march. It requires a calm heart to control the rhythm. If the mind is confused, the sound will be noisy, if the mind is calm, the sound will be pure; if the mind is flustered, the tone will be wrong. Tai Ze's voice is clear. But the emperor's mentality is too eager for success and so impetuous, it is difficult to interpret! An unhealthy mentality is a taboo in the use of troops, which is definitely not a good sign!"
"Hey! Why are you so worried?" Yu Hai smiled nonchalantly, and then mocked: "There is a road but you can't go there, and you have to cross the river through muddy water. The emperor insists on this, and even if he loses his life, he can't blame others."
This is indeed true.
He clearly had the best resources available to him, but he took the bean bags instead of dry food and didn't even take a whiff.
The bean bags here naturally refer to myself and Qi Jing.
If the late emperor had acted, he would have asked himself or Brother Qi to take the lead, and when the time was right, he would have jumped out to clean up the mess.
This method not only consumes the effective strength of the local army, but also gets the military glory in the hands, why not do it?
Yes, there is no need to use such a good borrowed knife to kill people, and I have to take the lead alone.
Do you think I am smart now? Or stupid?
No matter what, the matter is firmly established and cannot be changed.
The rest is just to wait and see.
The news of Emperor Da Feng's personal expedition not only shocked the country, but also aroused strong concern in the international political arena.
The one with the biggest eyes is naturally the Fuso Kingdom across the sea.
They never thought that the monarch of Dafeng would personally participate in the war.
Could it be that there is some unknown super conspiracy hidden in this?
Well, it's possible.
As the saying goes, when something goes wrong, there will always be a monster, and there will never be a wave without wind.
Unable to figure out the truth, Fusang Kingdom settled down because of caution.
In this way, a military tense was formed in which all parties participated and watched the personal performance of Emperor Da Feng.
…
Three days later, new military information came.
This information is all about one's own side.
It is said that the imperial army that went on an expedition to Goryeo was composed of temporary recruits from various places. The preparation period was extremely hasty, and there was basically no form of coordinated training.
From a military point of view, this army is a rabble.
Because the emperor sent out troops too hastily, the preparations for food and grass were not particularly sufficient.
I can only do it reluctantly and keep cooking.
However, the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance has stepped up his dispatch and will try to make up for the void in the fastest way possible.
Ten days later, new news came.
But this time, it was real military confrontation information.
According to intelligence, Da Fengjun relied on its superiority in numbers to defeat Goryeo's vanguard troops and fled in panic.
The sharp momentum is like a heavenly soldier descending to earth, making people feel unstoppable.
In the emperor's own words, this battle not only fulfilled his expectations, but also demonstrated the supreme power of the Holy Dynasty. The effect was not ordinary.
"Is there a clear location for this battle?"
"Master Hui Qi, the details are not clear yet. We only know at the moment that this was a sudden encounter in the wild, not an attack and defense between the two sides with their backs to the city."
"Then...did you seize the enemy's money and food? Or the corresponding military equipment?"
"Sir, there are none of these!"
nothing?
This is a bit strange~~
Moreover, it’s not just weird!
When Goryeo went to war, how could they not bring food and baggage? If you take it, you will definitely be captured by me. This is common sense in war, and no one can escape it.
Unless Goryeo deliberately did not carry it.
The failure to seize armaments is equally unreasonable.
Since you are running away, you will definitely abandon your armor to reduce your own pressure. How can you continue to carry the burden even though you know you are losing?
Weird!
Qi Yu thought about it for a while and couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's bad, tell the emperor quickly, tell him that there is a fraud, and ask him to stop the army immediately!"
Peng Wenchang, who was listening on the side, was stunned when he heard this, and showed a confused expression.
How can we tell that there is fraud based on this little bit of information?
Where does this come from?
Qi Yu didn't bother to explain to him and still said to the scout: "Go quickly! Make no mistakes! For the convenience of movement, I allow you to use all transportation resources!"
"Yes! Sir!"
"Hopefully, our information can catch up!"
