Hong Chengchou naturally understood the meaning of the emperor's words. At his prime, he was certainly unwilling to waste his life as a minister. His ultimate goal was to be ranked in the court in the court.

The emperor had already told him clearly that not only could he be promoted to the Wu family with a generous title, but as long as he could handle the Liaodong affairs beautifully, there would definitely be his seat in the cabinet.

"Hong Qing, if Ning Jin is done this time, I want to launch a large army to attack Jianzhou after the beginning of next spring. Then you will be the commander of the army. What do you want?"

After Hong Chengchou gave a gift to receive the order, Zhu Youjian continued to ask.

"Attack Jianzhou? Is this the Lord's intention or the advice of my soldier? Where is the Lord's intention to use? How many people are there? What is the purpose of this battle?"

Hong Chengchou asked unexpectedly.

Zhu Youjian repeated what he said to Lu Xiangsheng, and finally said: "Since Hong Qing and others pacified the bandits last year, the various officials and troops have been recuperating for a long time. This year, they will be integrated and trained. With strong soldiers and horses, they should be enough to fight against the slave thieves in Jianzhou. As long as Jianzhou is attacked and destroyed, most of the internal and external troubles of the Ming Dynasty will be eliminated. In the following years, the court will focus on living with the people and improving people's livelihood. As long as you work together with me and plan to advance, within ten years, you will see a new Ming Dynasty that is rich and strong in the country!"

Hong Chengchou was not moved by the emperor's passion. He hesitated for a while and said, "Since the saint's will has been decided, I should obey it; but I have heard that Jiannu's army is strong and has tens of thousands of cavalry of the tarrant, and his power cannot be underestimated. There must be a complete plan in the battle next year, otherwise if you are not careful, it will damage the power of the court! This is not my fear of the enemy, but my sincere voice is my sincere voice!"

According to Hong Chengchou's original intention, after he took over as the Governor of Ji Liao, whether it was against the Ningjin Group or the Jianzhou Jurchens, he should take the strategies adopted by Sun Chengzong at that time as the main body, make every step forward, make steady progress, implement different methods in stages, and gradually differentiate and encroach on these two separatist zhèng    quán; take advantage of the increasingly abundant finances of the court, and strive to completely weaken the power of the two major armed groups within five to ten years, and then gather heavy troops to give a thunder blow, completely eliminating these two problems that threatened the Ming Dynasty for many years.

But Zhu Youjian suddenly proposed to solve the problem of Liaodong border next year, which caught Hong Chengchou off guard.

"The emperor was still anxious. He fought with Lu Jian, Sun Baigu and others, commanded tens of thousands of official troops, and it took nearly ten years to kill all the bandits. This is a pity that most of the bandits were farmers who had not been formally trained, and their weapons and armor were far inferior to those of the official troops. If they were against Jiannu and the tarry captives with sharp weapons, the results of the battle would be unpredictable!"

Zhu Youjian knew what Hong Chengchou was thinking, and knew that he had doubts about the combat power of the official army, for fear that he would be defeated after leading his troops out of the pass, which would destroy his reputation for life.

But Zhu Youjian is more aware of Jiannu's combat power. After the Guanning Army's intentional or unintentional exaggeration, Jiannu's combat power has been praised a lot. In fact, Jiannu is not as brave and good at fighting as imagined by later generations. The so-called Jurchens are not as satisfied with ten thousand people, and they are invincible, which is purely self-promotion.

The Battle of Hunhe in the first year of Tianqi is a clear proof.

The bloody battle in Hunhe not only had 3,000 Zhejiang soldiers, but also 10,000 white-rod soldiers. Both troops came to rescue Shenyang.

However, before the Zhejiang soldiers and the Baigang soldiers arrived in front of Chenyang, they set up an internal bar. The two armies fought first, and then they exhale the anger, and then the Zhejiang soldiers even bombarded the Baigang soldiers with artillery. Many of the civilian houses next to the Baigang soldiers were knocked down. During the internal fight, Chenyang was already broken by the Later Jin army. When they learned that the rescue target was gone, the two armies began to retreat, and were chased by the Eight Banners Army on the way to retreat.

The Eight Banners Army first attacked the Baigang soldiers, and then the Zhejiang soldiers watched and did not rescue them. The 10,000 Sichuan infantry equipped with simple equipment gave the Eight Banners Army a large number of killings and injuries. First, the Red Bajia La army was defeated by the Baigang soldiers, and Nurhaci's rear army was repelled several times by the Sichuan army after reinforcement. The Eight Banners Army led the Eight Banners Army, the Eight Banners Army led the Sifxian, the Zuo leader Sirtai, the Gran and the Three Thousand Eight Banners soldiers were killed.

The Sichuan Army was exhausted after a thousand miles of arrival, and its logistics was not guaranteed and isolated. It was defeated in the face of the continuous attacks of the Eight Banners. If the White Barrier Army had as many cavalry as the Eight Banners and had cavalry help, the Later Jin Army would not win at all.

After the Baigang soldiers were destroyed, the Eight Banners Army once again concentrated their efforts to fight 3,000 Zhejiang soldiers. Since Qi Jiguang had passed away for many years, the number and combat effectiveness of the Zhejiang soldiers in the first year of Tianqi were far inferior to before. Even so, the Qi family army still bloomed in the bloody battle of Hunhe.

When the Later Jin army had already captured Shenyang, 3,000 Zhejiang soldiers faced the attacks of tens of thousands of Eight Banners troops in the plains. At first, the Eight Banners troops could not break the defense of the Zhejiang soldiers, but they still waited until the Zhejiang soldiers were exhausted and they used hand-to-hand combat to defeat the Zhejiang soldiers. Although the Zhejiang soldiers were defeated in this battle and almost no one survived after the war, it was good to use 3,000 infantry to face more than ten times the Later Jin army to fight to this extent in the plains.

If the Baigang soldiers and Zhejiang soldiers do not have internal strife, they will not be able to reach Chenyang as soon as possible, and if Chenyang City is backed up, they will not be worried about supply, the Eight Banners will not win at all.

"I know what Hong Qing is thinking about it. Before sending troops next year, it is based on the effective solution of Ning Jin's affairs; millions of Liao gulfs each year are like bottomless black holes, sucking all the taxes paid by the people of the Ming Dynasty, making Taicang unable to take out more money and grain to help the struggling people on the line of life and death. I feel unbearable every time I think about it! This matter is also my initial plan, and no final resolution has been formed. Hong Qing will plan the war next year before privately, and then make plans based on the actual situation. This matter must not be known to others! At present, only my soldiers and two ministers in the attack on Liaodong, Xuan Daluqing, Shaanxi Sunqing, and Cao Governor Chen Qing, and I have not told everyone in the cabinet. Hong Qing remember!"

After leaving Hong Chengchou for lunch, Zhu Youjian personally sent the famous minister out of the hall.

Jizhou Town is located two hundred miles northeast of the capital, and is the closest town to the capital. Therefore, Jizhou Town has to shoulder the functions of resisting foreign aggression and defending the capital, and also to deter rebels and maintain the court. This dual role makes Jizhou Town more important than other border defense centers, so it is also more powerful than ordinary cities in terms of military strength.

The famous general Qi Jiguang guarded here for 16 years during the ten thousand years. During this period, he rectified the border preparations and spent a lot of money and grain to repair the Great Wall, making Jizhou Town safe and sound for decades.

Jizhen General Mansion is located in the center of Santunying Town, west of Qianxi County. It was built by Qi Jiguang while building Santunying City.

There is a thoroughfare outside the front door of the General's Mansion, with secondary doors on both sides, and a tall screen wall in front of the door.

There are Huanbiao on both sides of the front and east sides of the mansion, and there is a square in between, which can accommodate thousands of horses in the field. In the second door, there are a car waiting room and a drum pavilion. Entering the ritual door, there is a corridor leading directly to the lobby. The hall is lined with five pillars, the Henggao platform is wide, and thousands of people can accommodate. There are floors behind the lobby, and behind the building is a fang.

On the left side of the lobby is the place where ordinary officials live, on the right side of the Yasen is the Book Mansion, in front of the trunk, and on the right side of the trunk is the area where the trunk is the area where the trunk is the place where the trunk is the place where the trunk is the area where the trunk is. The entire town mansion is magnificent and decorated in gorgeous ways.

In the den behind the General's Mansion, Wu Xiang, the general of Ji Town, who was over 40 years old, was chatting with his second son Wu Sangui.

"My father, according to the current situation, it is difficult for my Wu family to go to the place outside the pass. It is obvious from the last time that the court is dissatisfied with my ancestors and the Wu family and the Wu family are becoming increasingly cautious. I don't know what regulations will be used to deal with us in the future. I plan to return to Jinzhou in a few days to bring my mother and other families into the pass, so that my parents and their families will not be separated for a long time. I wonder what my father will do about it?"

Wu Sangui, wearing white straight casual clothes, was just twenty-five years old. He was handsome and handsome. He was nearly two years old after being ordered to enter the pass to participate in the war in the eighth year of Chongzhen, and returned to Jizhou Town in March of the tenth year of Chongzhen.

Wu Xiang, wearing a purple round neck, long sleeves, silk and straight body, has fair skin and beautiful eyebrows. She doesn't look like a general who commands more than 10,000 troops, but more like a gentle scholar.

"My son has been in the pass for two years and his horizons have broadened a lot. Let me tell you, where can I see from the Lord and the court intend to deal with my ancestors and the Wu family?"
