Chapter 738: Strategizing
.I don’t know how magic the book is, or whether the silent words are full of temptation, but it seduced Wang Yin, who has been pure and weak for many years, into the group. However, the three of them kept silent about the issue at the same time, and they would not even mention it for a long time. Everyone has experienced great storms and ups and downs, and they know the most about the severity. Instead of thinking about things that seem out of reach, it is better to talk about the difficulties in front of them first.
After all, Wang Yin and Zheng Ruozeng returned to their old careers and soon got into the state. When they heard Chen Mo say that Zhang Nie was seriously injured, they sighed together, "I don't use people properly..."
I am so depressed that I thought I had no eyes on the battlefield, so why didn’t I understand anything? I just said that I was not good at employed people?
The two saw that he was not convinced and smiled at each other. Zheng Ruozeng said, "Sir, you used to be in charge of government affairs and have a good attitude towards people. But I forgive the students for saying frankly that it is the first time I have experienced in military affairs?"
I picked up a chopstick in silence and steamed silver carp, dipped it in the soup and said, "I have surrendered Xu Hai in Suzhou; I have fought Huang Taiji in Xuanfu. I wonder if this is military affairs?" After that, the three of them laughed together.
After laughing, he wiped his tears silently and said, "Yes, I happened to fight two battles before. Once, the Qi family army was with me, and the blind cat met a dead mouse. He planned and won a thousand miles. This is indeed my weakness."
"No one is perfect," Wang Yin said with a smile: "If you can do anything, what's the use of us?" He spoke slowly, not as aggressive as Zheng Ruozeng, which made the silence feel instantly.
"Yes, you're just about to give me some advice." Silent swallowed his fish and said, "Why do I say I'm not using people?"
"The Art of War says: Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles." Zheng Ruozeng said: "How much do you know about the situation in Ganzhou, how much do you know about the rebels in Sanchao, and how much do you know about your own generals? If you are a little vague, you can't even dispatch troops."
"Zhang Nie has a deep experience and has the experience of suppressing bandits in Guangdong and Guangxi," said silently: "This appointment has also been unanimously recognized by the generals in Southeast Asia."
"This Zhang Nie has been suppressing bandits in Guangdong and Guangxi for more than ten years. Liu Xian, Yu Dayou and other large gangs of generals came from his command." Zheng Ruozeng kept shook his head and said, "As for those governors and generals, the final responsibility is borne by the Lord, and it is no wonder they are."
Seeing that his silent face was not very good, Wang Yin said, "In fact, it's not that anyone wants to make it ugly for adults. It's just that he is not in his position and does not plan his own affairs. No one really cares about it. He feels that Zhang Nie is almost the same, so he follows the crowd." He sighed and said, "It's convenient for others and for many years of convenience to the officialdom. It's impossible to change it for a while."
"If it is in the officialdom, it is understandable. Who wouldn't make a mistake? Everyone can cover it up, and this official can continue to do it." Zheng Ruozeng said, "But how can it be similar on the battlefield? A slight difference will lead to a thousand miles of mistakes.
One mistake is a bloody lesson, and I can't cover it even if I want to." As he said that, he grabbed a mouthful of Xinghua Village and said, "Why is it not appropriate to say that Zhang Nie is? The older others are getting worse, but the older this old man is getting more and more impatient. He did have extraordinary achievements when he was young, but after he was demoted from the Minister of War to the Governor of Guangdong, he kept his anger in his heart and wanted to make great contributions and restore his official position!"
"But over the years, seeing that everyone around him has made contributions, he has not made any contributions. He has returned in a defeat after attacking the island several times, making him look dirty." Wang Yin poured wine for silent wine and continued: "This time Liu Xian and the others praised him, most of the time, they didn't want the old master to regret it for the rest of their lives, so they asked him to take charge and fight this last battle!"
"These martial artists are purely nonsense." Zheng Ruozeng slapped the table in anger and said, "It is difficult to suppress bandits in southern Ganzhou, whether it is easy to say it is easy or not. It is like a mess, allowing the kind of careful general to judge the situation and find a clue, and it will be pacified in a year or two; but the irritable old general is eager to make contributions, which is exactly what he said..." Desire is not fulfilling."
The two of them said something, and I said something, and they scolded the silence, which made Sanfoe standing next to them disapprove. They thought to themselves that there was no one to give advice, so they did everything well? Why do you have to find two people to chat here?
I was silent but my family knew my family's affairs. I didn't realize it at first, but since I became the Southeast Administration, I felt very nervous and felt my shortcomings. Now someone can give me some advice, so I really want it, so how could I feel offended?
"I know I'm wrong." He raised his hand and surrendered, "Let's talk about what to do next? How should Gannan respond and how should the imperial court deal with it?"
"Do we still have to worry about the court?" Zheng Ruozeng said with a funny look: "Let's not show off."
Silent smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, let's talk about Gannan." He knew that the Quzhou rebellion, the three-chao rebellion, and the uninterrupted rogue Kou Dongnanjie's position were like a hot potato for the officials in the court. Besides, his old master could not deny himself because of one thing; and Gao Suqing would not easily offend him, so it should be fine.
However, if something goes wrong, I am afraid that I will be sang and beheaded.
"There is a saying in the officialdom, "South Ganzhou is difficult to do," Zheng Ruo once scooped a spoonful of fish soup and tasted it: "There are four provinces in this area, and the mountains and streams are steep and endless. The traitors are in the middle. They chase east and run west, and they catch south and run north. They are known as ghosts and sad. The legend of the officialdom, no matter how capable officials are, they will be the end of their careers when they come here."
"Yangming Gong also governed southern Gannan", and interrupted with a silent smile: "It seems that the later son is still growing."
"Just about to talk about Yangming Duke." Zheng Ruo once said: "He is an ordinary person who has become a saint. He is really beautiful in southern Gan. If he criticizes him, he will be a little unkind.
"With that being said, he said without hesitation: "But it was his improper handling decades ago that caused the current situation."
Sanchi, who was beside him, felt even more disdainful and said to himself: "It's so crazy that even Yangming Gong doesn't let him go."
Silent but not superstitious about authority. He just wants to listen to the truth and then make independent judgments, and then said: "I hope to hear the details."
Very satisfied with the silent reaction, Zheng Ruozeng said: "Let's start from the beginning slowly. After hearing this, he must be in a clear mind." He then fiddled with the cup and plate on the spot and said: "The so-called Three Nests refer to the strongholds established by Li Wenbiao, Xie Yunzhang, and Lai Qinggui. Originally, Xie Lai two bandits were tiptoed in Longnan and Dingnan counties in Jiangxi; Li Bandit was close to Bengang, Guangdong, Jiangxi, but after Li Wenbiao's death, his sons Li Zhen and Jiang Yueyao competed for the power of the bandit army. The two looked apart and each took their headquarters to join the two bandits, and they had become vassals, so it would be fine if they didn't mention it."
"So let's just talk about southern Ganzhou, which refers to Ganzhou Prefecture and Nan'an Prefecture in southern Jiangxi. There are 16 counties including Ganxian, Yudu, Xinfeng, Anyuan, Longnan, and Dingnan Chongyi." It is worthy of being a monster who wrote "Jiangnan Jinglu". Everything in southern Gan was long in his heart. He only heard him talk: "The poor mountains and rivers here are a typical mountainous terrain. Until the beginning of the country, this area was still sparsely populated. Yang Shiqi, a great scholar in the Xuanzong Dynasty, once described: "Gan was a county, located in the upper right river of the river, and the ten cities under his control were remote.
There are few people and scattered among mountain streams, or there are no houses for dozens of miles. However, after so many years of reproduction, there are indeed more people here. But what is not the only one is that it is not us Han people, but She people. They speak Hakka dialect that we cannot understand, and live in the mountains with blood clan relationships. They often have one surname or one surname, and their customs are also very similar to our court..., undoubtedly, the power of the government is the weakest in this kind of place, and it is very easy to be called by the bandits..."
"Since the Chenghua and Hongzhi period, a large number of Guangzhe bandits, Fujian bandits, Fujian bandits continued to disturb this place. And often these chaotic bandits came here and stopped leaving, occupying mountains and becoming kings, looting places, making the locals miserable. This kind of chasing chaos became more and more intense in Zhengde and this dynasty, but the government was still in name and was unable to protect the She people at all. The local She people built villages to resist the bandits and gathered their tribes to protect themselves. The siege pool they built was two zhang high and one zhang thick, and it was two or three hundred zhang around, with all the perforated and chassis inside, and built along the mountain, so that ten thousand men could not open."
After listening to Zheng Ruozeng’s story, two words appeared in Shen Mo’s mind, “He once visited the shocking castle-style building in Jiangxi.
"These enclosures, which were funded by the villagers and spent their entire lives, are even stronger and stronger than those of the county town. After they were built, under the management of the clan leader, the whole clan lived in it, usually farming, and in chaos, they defended the enemy within the enclosure. Men, women, young and old have their own affairs, and food and property are distributed fairly. No one is allowed to be lazy, hide privately, fear of death, or introduce foreigners into the clan. If they violate it, they will be immediately removed from the enclosure.
, never return to the clan." Zheng Ruozeng said slowly: "The clans, turtles, and siege houses like this are never scattered in the mountainous areas of southern Jiangxi, especially in the southern border with Fujian and Guangdong. Because the bandits come, they are the brunt of the local clans. For example, in Longnan County, there are more than 50 clans of various sizes, including Taxia Village, Luotuo Village, Niu Nao Village, Yangsheng Village, etc. Almost all villages have their own turtle villages."
Zheng Ruozeng made a long speech, saying that he was dry and dry. He picked up the tea cup and drank a sip of tea, and said to Wang Yin: "You continue."
Wang Yin nodded and smiled. Unlike Zheng Ruozeng, who must be detailed, his speech style is very simple and he will never waste his saliva: "As Brother Kaiyang said, the clan is the heaven of the hundreds of surnames in southern Jiangxi; the walled houses are their cities, so that the county magistrates and county towns of the court will become decorations; and the local garrison troops, like other places, were forced to escape from their livelihoods...", and sighed and said, "Which Lai Qinggui, Xie Yunzhang and others are all local tyrants, and most of the fathers of the She people participated in the rebellion during the Zhengde period...",
Although the words are simple, Yi Gai, at least he understood in silence. His meaning is that the counties in southern Gan have nothing to do, and the army is still dead. The She people live on the mountain villages and all follow the clan command. However, most of the She people have a grudge against the court. When the hatred grows up, if the conditions are right, they will of course take revenge and continue to go against the government.
"This is what I said, the legacy of Yangming Gong," Zheng Ruozeng said in a deep voice: "At that time, the She ethnic group rebelled in southern Gan, Yangming Gong was ordered to extinguish a large-scale rebellion in less than two years. His wise and magical martial arts made many young boys fascinated, including those below." He sighed quietly: "But now it seems that many of his practices are actually endless. First, he insisted on attacking. In his memorial to Emperor Wuzong, he said: "The thieves are too overwhelmed, due to insufficient military force, and due to ineffective rewards and punishments. After obtaining the emperor's resentment, he formulated an overall strategy of suppression as the main and supplemented by the support... and the scope of responsibility was strictly limited, and only applicable to those who followed the people." And, and those who follow the people who follow the heart, he said."
"Under the guidance of this strategy, Yangming Gong sat in Ganzhou and began to suppress bandits. Because the army was corrupt and tyrannical, he could only train troops while using strategies to win over and divide the rebels. The usual method was to buy traitors with great profit and attack the siege houses inside and outside, and it was not prohibited from joining relatives and friends from outside the tribe. Yangming Gong used this layer to infiltrate the spies, and waited for an opportunity to open the gate of the village in the middle of the night to capture the camp. Moreover, the information could not be communicated between the siege houses, so he was conspired by him and sent more than 40 villages in two months. He also used methods such as surrender to lure the rebels to lead them to kill them. Among them, things that turned against others and did not speak of their trust were as usual." Zheng Ruozeng said: "In our eyes, these are real and real, and they are tricks, but in the eyes of the other party, they are conspiracies of the Han people, which are difficult to convince them."
"Yangming Gong used troops throughout his life and rarely attacked them with real measures. He prefers to use strategies to earn victory, but in fact he is a little bit crazy." Wang Yin interrupted: "It is no problem to quell Zhu Chenhao's unpopular rebellion like this, but it is a bit frivolous to treat the She rebellion with extremely complicated problems."
This is the first time Chen Si heard that someone criticized Wang Yangming for not being wrong, but then he thought about it. Others knew that their master Chen Lian and Wang Ji were all Wang Xue's school, so they would not talk nonsense in front of him. Since Zheng Ruozeng and Wang Yin were his counselors, they naturally had to speak out and say everything, so that they could provide reliable reference for his decision-making.
Thinking of this, Chen Si calmed down and said softly: "What do you mean by the two?"
"Break it right away!" Zheng Ruozeng turned the stern track: "It proved that the government is absolutely capable of defeating them, but it is just unwilling to do so, not unable to!" As he said, he exhaled a breath of turbid air and said: "But this is only the second.
The most serious problem is that Yangming Gong broke into more than 80 villages in southern Gan and killed more than 10,000 She people. Among them are culprits like Xie Zhishan and Lan Tianfeng, and the strong men who rebelled with them, but there are also old people, women, children and children... Speaking of this, his voice was a little low: "In fact, there is no need to kill so many people at all, but Yangming Gong could not stop his subordinates from plundering after breaking the Tuzhai. Many times, in order to cover up people's eyes, they could only kill all the people and finally set fire to the village."
"This is the fatal weakness of the literati leading troops." Wang Yin said sadly: "Even if a genius and talented person can learn from the war without a command, the binding force on the soldiers is indeed too poor." The military pay is meager, the status is low, and there is no like-mindedness. If you want to control the soldiers by severe punishment and law, you can only force them all to run away." As he said, "A clever wife cannot cook without rice. Don't delve into some helpless actions of Yangming Gong at that time." This was obviously what Zheng Ruozeng said.
"Okay, okay," Zheng Ruo once followed Shanru and said: "Then let's not talk about war, just talk about Yangming Gong's actions after the war, the ten card methods, the village agreement, and the heart-breaking thief. Although the results are good, there are problems."
"The Ten Cards are the Baojia Law that was adopted later. One family violated the law, and ten families even held the seat, so that the She people dared not go out to make a living, and they dared not go to the county government to fight when there is a lawsuit. They are all resolved internally in the clan ancestral hall." Zheng Ruozeng continued: "In addition, the village agreement he used to correct the origin and to strengthen the origin, but because the preacher was a clan old age, it actually aggravated the authority of the clan. There is also the broken heart thief." Zheng Ruozeng was definitely a research party, and each one must be clearly stated before he could stop: "It is to replace the She people with the Han culture, which cannot be accepted by any clan! As a result, the She people hated the government to the core, which made them unprecedentedly cohesive, and the county town that Yangming Gong had worked hard to establish was reduced to the decoration."
"Brother Kaiyang said so much," Wang Yin came out to smooth things out again and said: "It is not to criticize Yangming Gong, but to remind the adults to learn from the lessons of their predecessors and properly handle the Three Chains Rebellion and their relationship with the She people in southern Gan."
"Yes." Shen Mo said with a heavy emphasis: "I understand your hard work."
"That's good, that's good..." He has always been the main speaker of Zheng Kaiyang. He is exhausted now and smiled tiredly, "This generation of She people are all listening to Wang Yangming's story. When Yangming Gong took out his methods, how could he be more effective? Zhang Nieba is most likely to want to take medicine according to the prescription, so how can he not suffer any loss?"
