Chapter One Hundred and Seventy-Fourth: Liting Sweeping Points

Zhang Jingyi’s idea is very simple.

The problem in Liaodong is a wound that continues to bleed.

This wound will not stop bleeding for a day, so the internal and external troubles of the Ming Dynasty will never be able to be solved.

Therefore, we must not only be good at defending, but also attack.

War is a war of attrition. If you blindly defend, then the Jiannu from Liaodong will always take the strategic initiative!

When they don't beat you, they can rest and take advantage of the fertile Liaodong, which has a thousand miles of fertile land, so that the Liao people can cultivate for them, and at the same time subdue the Mongolian tribes and North Korea, and look at the Ming Dynasty.

Once they attacked, the border town of the Ming Dynasty would fall into a Jedi and had to continue to fight with the Jiannu people to consume.

In order to defend, you have to draw a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources into the pass, all of which are meaninglessly consumed in the border town.

The Jiannu people failed to attack once, and at most they could retreat and continue to grow stronger.

But as long as they succeed once, countless people will be captured by them, and the piles of money and food will become a force to strengthen them, and even the capital will be threatened by them.

If you continue to consume this, the only thing the Ming Dynasty could do at this time was to hold on.

In this period of frequent natural disasters, the economic foundation was continuously consumed. Even if the Ming Dynasty was not destroyed by the Jiannu people, it would be within the pass... In order to maintain the Liaodong front, military salaries were constantly being collected and sent, and natural disasters and man-made disasters would also collapse.

The reason why Zhang Jingyi proposed these was that he believed that the conditions were ripe, and there were a large number of Guanzhong strong people who could endure hardships and work hard, and could organize a army of wars.

Guanzhong has always been a tough people and honest people. This is the condition for establishing an elite soldier who can fight in the field.

Only with an elite soldier who can fight in the field can he penetrate into the heart of the Later Jin at any time. This means that the originally safe Later Jin will have to bear the pressure of the continuous destruction of its economic foundation by the Ming Dynasty at any time.

Otherwise, the Later Jin Dynasty will become stronger and stronger, and the Ming Dynasty will be dragged to death by this endless war of attrition.

But what shocked Emperor Tianqi and Sun Chengzong was that.

Since the Battle of Sarhu, dozens of battles between the Ming and the Later Jin have proved countless times that the Ming army has no ability to fight in the field! Even defense is difficult, let alone putting the army in the field without the protection of the city walls, this battle cannot be fought.

Because of this, the strategies they requested by countless governors and general officers in Liaodong were generally the same, namely, to defend.

This is true for Xiong Tingbi.

This is true for Wang Huazhen.

Then to Yuan Keli later.

And Sun Chengzong later.

This is true for Yuan Chonghuan now.

However, some people believe that this line of defense should be repaired, while others believe that the other side of defense should be strengthened.

Some people also believe that as long as we keep this line of defense, we can prevent the Later Jin from continuing to advance.

Some people are very arrogant and think that as long as we keep this line of defense, we can pacify Liao in three years.

Emperor Tianqi was not Emperor Chongzhen. He didn't like bragging. He had his own opinions on military matters.

So when Yuan Mouhuan claimed to be able to pacify Liao for three years, Emperor Tianqi beat him without hesitation, and then told him not to dream in the daytime, work hard and keep it for me.

Good guy.

Now there is a guy who actually said to Your Majesty... I think it is not a solution to defend like this. Otherwise, I will push and pull the Later Jinping down with just one wave. Just like when Emperor Wanli was there, my Ming Dynasty took the initiative to attack and plow the ground to sweep the holes.

What did you think about Emperor Apocalypse?

Emperor Tianqi already felt that Yuan Mouhuan was very naive, but as a result, his confidant and humeral minister proposed a more naive strategy.

Emperor Aoki was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

In the shocked eyes, it seemed to be saying: Dog, no, Zhang Qing, you have changed, you have not been so floating before.

As for Sun Chengzong, he still smiled. He was a tolerant person. As for a person, he had advantages and disadvantages. A young man like Zhang Jingyi had great ambitions and was not undesirable.

Of course... Sun Chengzong, who had personally guarded Liaodong, did not agree with Zhang Jingyi's strategy. Only those who had been to Liaodong could unforgettably realize the terrifying combat effectiveness of the Jiannu people. It would be better to say that a sheep entered the tiger's mouth than a decisive battle in the wild, which was purely a search for death.

After a long silence in the public housing.

When Zhang Jing saw that everyone's expression was a little wrong, he said, "My advice is like this. The Jiannu people's field battles are indeed powerful. Mr. Chen also realized the shortcomings of the Later Jin people from the information of the factory guards..."

Emperor Aoki actually felt very embarrassed at this time.

He kept smiling because he didn't want to hurt Zhang Jingyi's self-esteem, after all... this is his own person.

But it is actually a bit uncomfortable to continue to maintain such a smile of encouragement!

So, he hopes to eliminate such an embarrassing situation as soon as possible: "Zhang Qing, how many people do you need?"

Zhang Jingyi said seriously: "First recruit 300 people and be regarded as the backbone."

Emperor Tianqi said proudly: "I'm sure."

Zhang Jingyi said: "Your Majesty, my suggestion is..."

"You don't have to say anything more. I'm sure about your request." Emperor Tianqi breathed a sigh of relief.

Sun Chengzong also breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately... only three hundred people.

If the lion spoke up and said we should give us tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands first, we would turn against each other.

So Emperor Tianqi waved his hand generously and promised generously: "Everything is correct, there is no need to submit a request. You are my heart. I naturally trust Zhang Qing. Zhang Qing is the country's hard work, so all you need to study hard."

As soon as this statement comes out.

Everyone will understand what it means.

So Huang Liji, who was embarrassed and numb, said first: "Yes, yes, Zhang Baihu is loyal and loyal. Such a minister who is fighting against each other is admirable."

Sun Chengzong also nodded and praised: "This young hero."

Emperor Tianqi then laughed: "I got Zhang Qing, like a fish in water."

“Hahahahaha…”

With a cheerful laughter, Emperor Tianqi stood up: "It's getting late, I'm going to escape... I'm going to get back to the palace. The state affairs are so irritating, and I'm not capable of clones."

Zhang Jingyi: “…”

Before leaving, all the officials in Xinxian County came to see him off.

When Emperor Tianqi climbed into the sedan chair, he glanced at Guan Shaoning with a meaningful look, and then entered the sedan chair.

Seeing the Holy Driving away, Zhang Jingyi sighed.

Only then did Lu Xiangsheng come up and say, "Zhang Baihu, is your Majesty approved?"

"Yes, it's right." Zhang Jingyi's voice was a little deeper.

He seemed a little overjoyed.

So Lu Xiangsheng said, "Then... why is Zhang Baihu depressed?"

Zhang Jing frowned and said, "I don't know either. I can't say it, I just think... it seems strange."
