Sui means to appease and calm down.
Wang Sui looked at Li Fangyuan with firm eyes without fear.
After studying hard for twelve years, he finally entered the Imperial College, studied at the Military Academy for three years, and successfully graduated. The Ministry of War sent him to Liaodong for training, but after coming to Liaodong for more than a year, Wang Sui had only one feeling:
emptiness!
There is no battlefield in Liaodong to make achievements, no stage to display strategies and plan the overall situation.
Yes, recruiting girls was a major event for the court, but it did not require one's participation, and there was no opportunity to display one's talents and wisdom. When the imperial court recruited various Jurchen tribes, it geniusly tied together aid, setting up guard posts, and setting up garrisons. Wang Suiji was so impressed that he gave a twelve-character judgment on the recruitment of Jurchens:
The difficulty is not great, the progress is not fast, and the roots are far-reaching.
Because the Jurchen tribes are scattered, weak, with a small population and no large ethnic group, this determines that when faced with the imperial court's appeasement, the Jurchen tribes have limited ability to resist. No matter how long they struggle or wait and see, they will choose to surrender.
Wang Sui knew very well that recruiting girls was a tedious but not very difficult matter. It was also something that could not be rushed for immediate results. He had to do it step by step, gradually dismantle and differentiate it. If he wanted to make political achievements and join the court, there would be no one. Five or even ten years simply won’t work.
The ordinary road is long.
Very roady and adventurous.
Now, he is taking a risk and betting on his own future.
If you succeed, you will take credit.
If you fail, you will die.
Wang Sui recalled the teachings of the Guozi Military Academy. King Yan said that the best art of war is to attack; Gu Pu said that the art of war can be seen everywhere in life; Zhang Fu also gave a lecture and said that the art of war is to kill them by any means. But none of these are as profound as what Zhu Yunwen said. Zhu Yunwen said that the best art of war is no art of war.
Of course, Zhu Yunwen did not teach the students of the Military Academy not to study their homework, but advocated that "the mind should not move and act randomly." To achieve these eight words Zhu Yunwen said, one must learn all the art of war and strategies. , integrated into one, only in this way, when faced with sudden changes, can we be like a skilled swordsman, using moves to defeat the enemy!
Now is the time to "act randomly". Wang Sui looked at the majestic North Korean King Li Fangyuan and said unhurriedly: "Can't you see the painstaking efforts of the Ming Dynasty?"
Li Fangyuan was angry with doubts. Daming's painstaking efforts? What pains could the Ming Dynasty have? They obviously wanted to bring North Korea and North Korea into the water and jointly attack the Japanese country!
Seeing that Li Fangyuan was speechless, Wang Sui couldn't help but lamented, and solemnly saluted Li Fangyuan with a sad face: "Since you can't see through it, just pretend that I didn't say anything. It's just that this time of farewell, no more than ten Year, North Korea will be subjugated. When the time comes, don’t forget my reminder today.”
Looking at Wang Sui, Zhang Bi and others who wanted to leave, Li Fangyuan's heart was full of turmoil.
In ten years, North Korea will be destroyed?
Is the young man in front of me trying to gain fame, or is he a kind warning?
There are no enemies outside North Korea and there is no civil unrest within the country. How can there be talk of death?
Li Fangyuan suppressed his doubts and shouted: "Please let the envoy stay and explain the matter clearly. If it is just scaremongering and rhetoric, the royal family will not allow you to be presumptuous and will definitely report it to the emperor of heaven!"
Zhang Bi secretly complained and wanted to plead for Wang Sui, but Wang Sui stopped Zhang Bi, turned to Li Fangyuan and said: "Whether it is alarmist or not, it depends on whether the king can listen to it."
"Tell me!"
Li Fangyuan was a little impatient.
Wang Sui confidently took two steps forward and said solemnly: "What did you see in the Ming Dynasty report? Yangjiang, the Ming sergeant, Chen Zuyi, the Japanese sergeant, declared war? No, you all ignored one of the most fatal words. .”
Li Fangyuan stared, and He Lun, Li Shufan and others were also full of doubts. Isn’t this just introduced in the credential, what else is there? Wang Sui took a deep breath and gave the answer: "The most terrible thing is the shipwright you ignored!"
"Shipmaker?"
Li Fangyuan frowned, and even Zhang Bi felt bad. The person who was taken away was a Ming Dynasty shipbuilder and had nothing to do with North Korea. Wang Sui, Wang Sui, you have caused a big disaster!
Sure enough, Li Fangyuan asked sharply: "What does this have to do with the survival of North Korea?"
"What does it have to do with it? Haha, what you are ignoring is killing North Korea! May I ask your Majesty, what does a shipwright do?"
Wang Sui is very grateful for his time in the Imperial College, where there is magical and novel knowledge that will benefit people for life.
Li Fangyuan was speechless: "Of course it's shipbuilding!"
Wang Sui continued to ask: "Ask me again, Your Majesty, the Japanese country colluded with Chen Zuyi and sent out thousands of troops to plunder the Yangjiang shipbuilders. Who was it to build ships for? It was the Nanyang Sea that had no fixed abode and could only wander on the sea. Thief, or the Japanese country with a dense island? Is it Chen Zuyi who has been crippled by the Ming Navy, or is it Ashikaga Yoshimitsu who dominates the Japanese country? "
Li Fangyuan was shocked. The answer to this question was self-evident: "Japan!"
Wang Suisan asked: "The Japanese country was small and narrow, so they robbed shipwrights and built ships. Is it for boating in rivers and lakes, enjoying themselves, fishing on the seashore to fill the belly, or is it to build sea-going ships, travel overseas, and expand wildly?"
Li Fangyuan was stunned.
Yes, what did the Japanese use to rob shipwrights?
Building a riverboat?
There is no need for the Ming Dynasty shipwrights. Just find a piece of wood or a dog plow in the small area of Japan, and there is no need to risk revenge from the Ming Dynasty.
Building a small sea boat?
Didn’t the Japanese have small bamboo boards? What's more, they can still build small sea boats, so fishing on the beach is not a problem.
Could it be that, as Wang Sui said, he wanted to build a large sea ship?
Wang Sui didn't speak anymore. He had said everything he needed to say, and they needed to leave some room for themselves.
The combination of these factors, including shipwrights, the Japanese nation, and sea-going ships, formed a signal: the Japanese nation wanted to build a naval fleet capable of long voyages.
As for the destination of the Japanese voyage, I believe Li Fangyuan has a clear judgment.
Li Fangyuan's face turned a little pale, and he finally understood Wang Sui's worries and the reason why he said that North Korea would be destroyed in ten years.
Japan, are their ambitions finally going to expand?
Li Fangyuan gritted his teeth!
The first time the Japanese invaded North Korea was during the Tang Dynasty more than 700 years ago. At that time, Japan supported Baekje and directly sent troops to fight against Silla, which was vassalized by the Ming Dynasty. In the end, Japan was defeated and withdrew from the Tang Dynasty army!
More than seven hundred years!
Li Fangyuan once thought that the Japanese would never invade North Korea again. But six years ago, this idea changed.
At that time, the Japanese nation Ouchi Yoshihiro had not yet fought the final decisive battle with Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. He was the guardian of the six kingdoms of Shubo, Nagato, Iwami, Bunzen, Izumi, and Kii. He was in charge of the trading port of Sakai City and controlled the east-west route of the Seto Inland Sea. .
Ouchi Yoshihiro claimed that he was a descendant of the Baekje royal family and asked Li Chenggui to give up the territory that originally belonged to Baekje in North Korea, otherwise he would send troops to take away his own territory.
Later, Ouchi Yoshihiro fought a decisive battle with Ashikaga Yoshimitsu and died in Sakai City.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was a more formidable enemy than the Ouchi clan. He was not a monarch who could live on one-third of an acre, but continued to expand until he completely controlled the entire Japanese country. As a strong man of the generation, will he be willing to stop here?
Li Fangyuan was not sure and could not guess what Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was thinking.
If Ashikaga Yoshimitsu is really preparing for the northern expedition to North Korea, then ten years later, it may really be time for North Korea to survive!
Li Fangyuan looked at Wang Sui with solemn worry in his eyes: "So, are you helping us?"
Wang Sui nodded calmly: "If Emperor Jianwen hadn't attached great importance to North Korea and didn't want you to suffer the disaster of swordsmanship, and didn't want you to have trouble sleeping day and night, he would have already stated it in the document. We hurriedly came to you to discuss the Ming Dynasty and North Korea. We jointly fought against the Japanese, but you used the Amu River incident as an excuse to refuse. When the Japanese attack in a large scale in the future, can our country use this as an excuse and choose to stand aside? "
Li Fangyuan felt that his Adam's apple was dry and couldn't help but swallow his saliva: "Come here, give me a seat and a banquet!"
Zhang Bi looked at Li Fangyuan, who was getting enthusiastic, but he still hadn't turned around. Wang Sui said a few words, but why did Li Fangyuan's attitude change drastically? Are all the supervisors in the Imperial College so powerful now? These two words, which were so inconspicuous, have actually reached strategic heights, the height of national survival?
Could this Wang Sui be a big liar?
But no matter what, Li Fangyuan stopped talking about the Amu River, and instead promised to fully support the Ming Dynasty navy in fighting the Japanese, whether it was sending ships, troops, or food.
Songjing Palace became lively, with wine, food, singing and dancing coming.
Ming Dynasty, capital.
Zhu Yunwen bid farewell to Meng brother Timur.
Timur, the fierce brother, was very satisfied with this trip. Although he did not directly surrender to the Ming Dynasty or pay tribute, he still got the permission of the Ming Dynasty. As long as he resigned from the "Ten Thousand Households" official position in North Korea, he would send envoys next time. At that time, it was the time when the Jurchens of the Odoli tribe declared themselves ministers and paid tribute.
"Thank you to the emperor for your hospitality and gift. I will never forget it."
Meng brother Timur expresses his gratitude.
Zhu Yunwen did not doubt the sincerity of Meng Brother Timur at this time, and said with a smile: "I also hope that the Oduoli tribe will become more prosperous, and I look forward to the leader coming to the capital again."
"must."
Meng brother Timur guarantees.
Zhu Yunwen arranged for someone to see him off. Looking at Meng Brother Timur and others leaving in the distance, the smile on his lips gradually faded. He said to Liu Changge on the side: "Do you still remember Ji Gang?"
Liu Changge was a little surprised. He hadn't heard this name for a long time, but he still nodded: "I won't forget it."
Zhu Yunwen saw the fierce brother Timur in the distance turning back and waving, so he also raised his hand: "Transfer Ji Gang back to the capital. I have another appointment."
Liu Changge agreed without thinking too much.
Zhu Yunwen returned to Wuying Hall, examined the maps of Liaodong and Northeast China, and made up his mind.
Meng brother Timur can't live, and Oduoli can't live!
Who is suitable to do such a sinister thing?
Liu Changge, forget it, he is not suitable yet.
Tang Buping, this person is somewhat decent.
Pang Huan is a good candidate, but he should be busy collecting information for Chen Zuyi at this time and has no time to come back.
After thinking about it, Ji Gang seems to be the most suitable guy who has means, is obedient, and wants to climb up by any means.
In this case, let's use this guy.
Suzhou, Taicang Prefecture.
Ji Gang stood on a high slope looking at the sea, feeling depressed and frustrated.
Although Zheng Annan made great military exploits and was promoted to command the Taicang Guard, the Taicang Guard was an idle place with nothing to do. Its main responsibility was to ensure the safety of Taicang Prefecture and Liujiagang. But now the Ming Navy is almost invincible, and the Japanese pirates have also been If there is no trace left after the fight, what danger can there be in Taicang Prefecture?
Every day, get up and look at the sea.
Every night, I watch the sea before going to bed.
Although he is the leader of a guard, he has no use for it. There is no merit here, so naturally there is no way to get promoted!
Ji Gang lamented endlessly, could it be that his destiny could only stop here? If he wanted to be a master, to have the power to kill, and to be drunk in the lap of a beautiful woman, could it only be a dream?
I can not be reconciled!
Ji Gang glanced at the sea, and there must be a lot of grievances and bitterness in it.
