.Chapter 777 The West Wind

"The negotiations are open, and this is all about the Ministry of Rites." After hearing Zhang Juzheng's words, Xu Jie looked at him silently and said, "What is your attitude, the Minister of Rites?"

"The teacher has just told me about his past experiences, so I forgive my students for saying frankly that without military preparation is not enough to speak and do things. If I can't win on the battlefield, I can't win at the negotiating table." Chen Si swept away Piriyangqiu's behavior and clearly expressed his own point of view: "Now the Tartars are invading, destroying my city, slaughtering my people, and insulting our country. I attempt to use force to force me to open border markets. If we are weak at this time and seek peace, it will only make them think that they are self-scheming. Even if we retreat this time, if we are not satisfied in the future, we will definitely send our troops back and again, and again, and we will never be polite to us. There are no wolves in this world who are full, only bored hunting rifles, and we will negotiate without fighting. I would rather not do this Minister of Rites."

"Well said," Zhang Ju shouted, "I think so too. I have to fight a war. Even if I can't win, I must let the Tartars know that my Han man will be determined to repay any insults."

Seeing the two students getting excited together, Xu Jie could only smile bitterly and said, "You two are so light-hearted. If you lose, I, the chief assistant, will lose my face at most, but you advocates must pay for your career..."

"Master, sometimes you can't be too jealous of your body." Zhang Juzheng said something, and people vaguely saw the passionate Lord Zhang more than ten years ago: "No matter what the consequences, I am willing to write a letter to ask for a fight."

"So too." Sinister stood up and walked to Zhang Juzheng, but his attitude was even more relaxed: "Teacher, it's just a big battle. Winning will be a huge profit. Even if you lose, it will not be harmful and will not be so serious."

Xu Jie fell into deep thought. In his impression, silence was determined to win every time he was so determined... If this time was no exception, that would be good. After all, Xu Jie also wanted to use a victory to distinguish himself from Yan Song and take off the hat of "Licorice Country Old".

Of course, he must consider what to do if he fails. As for the same sentence, he should be in this position, not seeking merit but seeking no mistakes. It is not that easy to make up this decision.

In the end, Xu Jie did not nod, but did not say anything to death. He just said that he wanted to 'consider' and asked the two to go back first.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After coming out of the Forbidden City and walking on Chang'an Street, Zhang Juzheng asked silently, "Do you think the teacher may agree?"

"Everything has been 'considered'." Chen Si shook his head and said, "What else is hope?"

"Not necessarily." Zhang Juzheng said: "Based on my understanding of the teacher, he was really moved this time." He paused: "However, with the teacher's personality, it is probably because hesitated and everything will be the same."

Doesn’t this mean that I didn’t say anything? I rolled my eyes in silence, but didn’t say anything.

"I mean, at this time, we need to help the teacher make up our minds." Zhang Juzheng said with a smile.

"Do you have a good idea?" Chen Si looked at him.

"Come here." Zhang Juzheng smiled mysteriously. Chen Si had to turn his head over, and then he heard him say this, and his face changed: "You... aren't that authentic?"

"Don't worry, if the teacher blames me, I will take all the responsibility." Zhang Juzheng patted his chest and changed his mind after speaking: "But you have to give me a brief explanation. How sure are you to win this battle?" As he said that, his eyes shining and said: "You are not 70% sure that you will never say that."

"Haha..." Chen Si was fighting again, and he was a little bit of a deal. He shook his head and said, "Who can tell the truth about war?"

"That's the 55-5K?" Zhang Juzheng smiled and said, "The 55-5K in your eyes in Jiangnan is much more reliable than others." Without asking what he was going to do, he bowed and said, "It's settled, don't forget to write a letter tomorrow. The words should be exciting and not make people feel excited." After that, he got into the sedan chair first and left.

Seeing his sedan chair walking away, he was silent and said that Zhang Taiyue was much better than me than courage. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, shook his head, shook his sleeves, and got into the sedan chair, and went home.

When I returned home, I changed into casual clothes silently and walked to the front yard. I saw a tall figure standing at the door of the hanging flowers, looking in from time to time.

"Import the city, is there anything wrong?" Chen Si walked over and asked with a smile.

It turned out to be his son's teacher Li Chengliang bowed and said, "Ministry Hall, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Is there anything wrong?" said silently.

"I heard that there were Tartar soldiers at the city..." Li Chengliang said: "Today I went to the Ministry of War to inquire, and said that the army lacked officers. Regardless of whether they passed the exam, as long as they were willing to enlist in the army, they would immediately allow them to take over the military post."

"Yes." Silent nodded and said, "But this is for life, I have to go to the battlefield."

"Yes, the sword has no eyes. Maybe I haven't even received my salary once, so I will pass the position to my son." Shen Mingchen came over from the front. He came to see if he had returned from silence. When he heard the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but interrupt.

"Mr. Ju Zhang's words are wrong," Li Chengliang said calmly: "Isn't the duty of joining the army just to defend the country? Why should he be a soldier when he is afraid of war?"

It made Shen Mingchen very embarrassed and said embarrassedly: "I'm talking too much, I'm talking too much." He said, looking at Chen Si and said, "Sir, they asked me to see if you are back."

"I'll go here now." Silently nodded, turned to Li Chengliang and said, "Since you are interested in attracting the city to serve the country, let's come together."

"Yes" Li Chengliang's body shook, his domineering aura was revealed, and the original sour scholarly spirit disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The three of them came to the study, and Wang Yin and Yu Yin were already waiting there. As soon as they entered, Li Chengliang was attracted by the several maps hanging on the wall. Seeing that he could see it, Shen Mingchen joked, "Can you understand?"

"Of course." Li Chengliang pointed at the map of Jingji, this is from Shanxi, this is from Zhili, this is from the full map."

"I'll have a chance..." Shen Mingchen said with a smile.

"Stop being poor." Wang Yin said lightly: "There are talents of flying generals in the city, but you are usually blind."

"Thank you for your praise from Shi Yuegong, I'm afraid." Li Chengliang felt very proud when he heard Wang Yin compare himself to Li Guang. At least so far, he had never imagined that his achievements could match the famous flying general.

Sitting silently in the main seat, holding the hot tea that Yu Yin had just presented, and smiled and said, "Feng Tangyi Lao, Li Guang is hard to be granted. I think you, Li Chengliang, are much luckier than them."

Li Chengliang's heart trembled when he heard this, and he said to Chen Silence: "I won't let the adults down."

"Okay, okay." Chen Mo nodded with a smile and said, "You sit here first and listen to Shi Yue Gong and the others' speeches."

Li Chengliang sat upright like a student, just sitting in front of the door with his back to the door.

"Let's start." Chen Si leaned his body on the back of the chair and said to several friends: "Tell me the conclusion first." Last night, he told the three of them that he wanted to take on this hot potato. Let them study it carefully and see if they are sure. Now they have found themselves, and obviously they have reached a conclusion.

Yu Yin stood up, saluted respectfully to Chen Si, and then said in a deep voice: "Sir, Lord, the three of us have deduced the entire situation and agreed that we can fight."

"Oh?" Chen Si couldn't help but sit up straight, and his expression focused on listening.

Yu Yin said jokingly: "The art of war should be analyzed and studied from five aspects and compared the various conditions between the enemy and us, and we can predict the outcome of the war. One is Tao, the second is heaven, the third is earth, the fourth is general, and the fifth is law. The so-called 'Tao' is the morality of war. Only by standing on the side of morality can the army be born and died and not at risk. This time, the Taurus invasion, we defend our country, so morality is on our side; and the so-called 'Tao' is the time of heaven, and we must adapt to the times and follow the time of heaven. Recently, autumn rains have been going on for ten days, war horses are prone to illness, bowstrings will lose their elasticity, and the road will be even more muddy. The riding and shooting that the Mongols rely on will inevitably be greatly reduced, so the time of heaven is also here..."

"The so-called 'terrain' refers to the distance and whether the terrain is conducive to offense, defense and advancement and retreat. The Tartars worked hard on an expedition and went deep into our country for hundreds of miles, and had already violated the taboo of military strategy. When our army was fighting at home, if we knew the terrain, we could calmly spread it, choose favorable terrain, and fight the enemy with a decisive battle." Yu Yin walked to the edge of the map and pointed to the crossbows that were beaten with red pen and said: "These are all decisive battle locations that we think are beneficial to our side. There are 18 places in total. I believe that as long as the front-line commander is fickle at the right time, he will definitely start a battle at a suitable location."

"The above three points together will bring about the right time, place and people," Shen Mingchen continued: "We will fight against invasion and occupy all the right time, place and people. If we can't win this, then what battle can we win?"

He nodded silently and said to himself that there was a memorial for tomorrow. Yu Guang saw that Li Chengliang had a little dissatisfaction on his face, so he said calmly: "Yincheng, what do you think?"

"Mr. Junfang and Mr. Ju Zhang both said very well." Li Chengliang had a Northeastern man's straightforwardness and said bluntly: "But the war is a matter of war, ultimately, it depends on the soldiers and generals. I am forbidden to say that the generals of the Ming Dynasty were futile, went to the door, and bullied the people. They were all good at fighting, but if they really wanted them to fight, they would be blind." As he said that, he smiled strangely and said: "There is a joke that has been circulating for a long time. I wonder if the ministry had heard of it.

Chen Si coughed gently and signaled him to continue speaking. Li Chengliang said, "It was said that the Yellow River was broken. The Lord of Long Live ordered the chief minister Xu Jie to lead the six ministers to block the leak. The Old Master Xu ordered the Minister of Works to jump down and block the leak. The Minister of Works did not say anything and jumped into the break. As a result, he was washed away without a trace. The other five ministers also went down one after another. It was like this. The emperor ordered Xu Jie to go down. Old Master Xu had to tie himself up with a rope and tentatively jump down slowly. After observing the water situation, he immediately climbed up slowly, saying that with the observation of the old minister, only a few generals could be sent down. The Emperor found a few generals and ordered them to jump down, but he knew that he would block the break in a moment..."

"Why?" Shen Mingchen would be better off making up for this kind of fun.

"The emperor also asked Mr. Xu." Li Chengliang said: "Just listened to Mr. Xu's slow words, because the old minister heard that the generals of the Ming Dynasty were all stupid."

"Hahaha..." Shen Mingchen was the first to laugh, and the rest of the people laughed. Even the silent ones couldn't help laughing. He shook his head and said, "Who is so arrogant and even arranged all the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty."

"Although it's a joke." Li Chengliang couldn't laugh and said, "It also explained the current situation of the officers leading the army in the Ming Dynasty. They might have pulled out their hard bows and knew what kind of person Sun Wu and Bai Qi was? What if they were not a fool? Humanitarianism is a soldier, and they were all the generals. Now our Ming army is full of such generals. Even if we take all the right time, place, people will still be their own food when we pull it out, and there is no reason to win."

"Oh..." Shen Mingchen shook his head and said, "Don't be more ambitious in the city and destroy one's own prestige. The generals of the Ming Dynasty are not what you said."

"Yes, this is exactly the fourth point I want to say, 'General'." Yu Yin took over the conversation and said, "The so-called "general" refers to the general's wisdom and talent, trust in rewards and punishments, caresses the soldiers, brave and decisive, and has strict military discipline. The soldiers brought by such generals are reliable troops, and the battle commanded by such generals have hope of victory." As he said, he looked at Li Chengliang and said, "There is not such a general, but there are more than ever before."

"Oh?" Li Chengliang didn't believe it very much: "I would like to hear it carefully."

"There are at least three in front of you." Yu Yin said: "Listen to me to break it down for you."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After Yu Yin's explanation, Li Chengliang looked much better, but he still said worriedly: "I have no doubt about the first person, but for the second and third person, although they are famous, they are all small mobs in the south. Will the tens of thousands of cavalry of the Tartars come to the north?

"Hmph..." As soon as this statement came out, Shen Mingchen and the other three were a little unhappy. Li Chengliang realized that everyone here was all southerners, and they all participated in the war against Japanese defence. He quickly remedyed: "I don't mean that, I just worry that they will not adapt to the local conditions..."

"Ears are false, and eyes are true," said quietly: "One of them is in Beijing. You will know when you go with me to see it."

"Yes." Li Chengliang swallowed and spitted, and dared not say more.

"The fifth is 'law'." Yu Yin continued: "The so-called 'law' refers to the organization and organization of the army, the distinction between the general management and responsibilities of the officers, and the supply and management of military supplies, etc.," he said, looking at it and said silently, "Is this one, we have full confidence in the adults."

Chen Si couldn't help but shake his head and smiled, "Okay, this is a reason? You have to deduct your wages."

"No, sir," Shen Mingchen shouted: "You are the commander who has successfully managed the six southeastern provinces. Now I'm asking you to take charge of the central army. Isn't that a piece of cake?" It caused everyone to laugh again.

After laughing, Wang Yin, who had not spoken, made a summary statement: "Of course we have disadvantages, such as too few soldiers and generals, there are constraints within, etc., but we can conclude that it is impossible to wipe out the enemy completely, and there are conditions for elite troops to compete for victory on the battlefield, so we unanimously support the adult's proposal." As he said that, he suddenly exposed his fist, waved it in the air, and gritted his teeth and said, "Let's teach those Tartars a lesson so that they can't think that there is no one in China."

"Yes, sir, let's do it," Yu Yin also said with a heavy emphasis.

"**Mom" Shen Mingchen slapped the table and said, "Right, let the city go."

"Oh, yes." Li Chengliang came to his senses and shouted loudly: "**如歌"

The silence was so funny that they could not help but nodded and said, "I'll do my best." Before the strategists came to cheer, they heard him worryingly, "But if this is the case, it's just a fight with Yang Bo..."

"Sir, how can those who do big things be afraid of wolves in front of them or tigers in the back?" Shen Mingchen grinned his teeth and said, "He is the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty and you are also the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty. So what if he does it? He has three heads and six arms or what?"

"Ju Zhang's words are rough and not rough." Wang Yin nodded and said, "Sir, the country is in trouble now, so I don't dare to cut off the firewood. As long as we win this battle, we really don't have to worry about Yang Bo. Everyone is equal in power, what's there to be afraid of?"

"Even if you can't win..." Yu Yin whispered: "It doesn't matter, we try our best to ensure we don't lose." What this said is really hurting morale, but it also makes a clear sense... If you have to make a move, you can do it, but if you can't afford to win, you can't afford to lose, and you won't take risks.

The bag returned to silence, and no matter how lively he spoke, he had to be willing.

Silence is really not used to the word "adventure". Behind him is the Southeast, Huilian number, and countless students of the same year. There are too many people and things that need his power to protect him. Once he falls, everything he has worked hard to establish will be in danger of collapse.

Youdao is the 'Son of a thousand gold, you can't sit in the hall." Silence now, let alone a thousand gold, even tens of millions of gold are worth it, and you must stay away from risks.

"There is nothing to say about national justice." But this time, he said surprisingly firmly: "Those who offend me China will be punished even if they are far away, let alone close to you?"

Seeing that the adults finally made up their minds, the counselors couldn't help but cheer, and then with a hundred times more enthusiasm, they began to give him advice on how to take each step next...
