Chapter 1681 Urging to Send Troops
On this day, Xu Hai, Maye, Chen Dong, and Hojo Road's three seals Entai Japanese fried rice, which were entrenched in Tuolin, Chuanshabao, Huating and other places in Zhejiang Songjiang Prefecture, were beaten. "It's a world of difference. Banners such as "General", "Da Sima of Tiancha Pinghai", "Dazhu Kingdom of Tiancha Pinghai", "Da Ming Family Governor of Tiancha Pinghai", etc., roughly integrated the Japanese pirates from all walks of life who came to gather one after another. Four major groups of Japanese pirates were formed.
After the integration, the Japanese in Xu Hai became more and more aggressive, and on that day they attacked Zhapu and Haining counties at the same time.
When the county towns of Zhapu and Haining were on the verge of collapse, the Japanese pirates suddenly changed direction and headed towards Chongde County. Chongde County was unprepared and was killed by Japanese pirates. Chongde County fell.
After a burst of burning, killing and looting in Chongde County, the Japanese pirates swaggered, sang and danced as if they were strolling in their own back garden. They were pulled by horses and oxen, driving hundreds of carriages, and returned to Tuolin's lair with full loads. .
The people of Songjiang Prefecture were miserable. Many people in the streets and alleys cursed the imperial court for its incompetence and inability to protect the people. Some people scolded Jiangnan Governor Zhang Jing for being a wise man. He had so many soldiers under his command, but he stood still and watched the Japanese pirates wreak havoc in Songjiang Prefecture. Loot.
In Yingtian City, there are many similar voices. There are many voices criticizing Governor Zhang Jing in teahouses and restaurants. They all feel that Zhang Jing, the governor of Jiangnan, has the responsibility and obligation to send troops to exterminate the Japanese pirates in Songjiang Prefecture.
After Zhao Wenhua learned the news that the Japanese pirates had breached Chongde County, he went straight to Zhang Jing's restaurant, Heng, and broke into Zhang Jing's office without waiting for notification.
"Governor Zhang, the Japanese pirates are so lawless. They openly attack our county in Ming Dynasty in broad daylight. They even broke into a county. They burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of crimes. The people screamed everywhere. As the governor of Jiangnan provinces, Governor Zhang Responsible for the mission of destroying the Japanese emperor, please also ask Mr. Zhang The governor quickly dispatched troops to eliminate Japanese pirates such as Xu Hai, Maye, Chen Dong, and Hojo Dosan who were entrenched in Tuolin, Chuanshabao, Huating and other places in Zhejiang Province, and eliminated harm to the people. "
As soon as we enter. In the room, Zhao Wenhua directly urged Zhang Jing to send troops to destroy Xu Hai and other Japanese pirates.
In the room, Zhang Jing was arranging deployment work for the officials of the Ministry of War. When he saw Zhao Wenhua barging in without notice, he was already worried. Now he saw Zhao Wenhua bossing him around and ordering him to send troops, just like he was training his subordinates. I was even more worried. You, a person who is not as high-ranking as me, has less power than me, has not as good a name as me, and still regards someone as my father, what qualifications do you have to dictate to me, Zhang Jingyi.
Sending troops to suppress the Japanese? !
I think so too. I want to send troops to destroy those damn Japanese pirates more than anyone else! But we can’t send out troops now!
Nowadays, the soldiers under my command have no ability to suppress Japanese invaders, and the officers and soldiers in various places have no ability to suppress Japanese invaders. Thank God that they can defend their homes.
Although there are several Beijing camps in Yingtian, their military strength and combat effectiveness are quite good, but the main responsibility of the Beijing camps is to protect Yingtian city and the imperial mausoleum. Although I, the governor of Jiangnan, also have the power to command them, but Unless there are special circumstances, it is better not to mobilize the several Beijing camps guarding Yingtian and the emperor's mausoleum.
In normal times, at most one-third of the Beijing camp will be mobilized. Sufficient troops must be left to protect Yingtian City and the imperial mausoleum. Otherwise, if anything goes wrong between Ying Tian and Emperor Ling, he will definitely be guilty of an unpardonable crime and will be held responsible for his death.
Although in addition to the Beijing camp, there are also some officers and soldiers from other places who have been transferred to Yingtian. These officers and soldiers can all be deployed, but the number of these officers and soldiers is less than 20,000, and their equipment and combat effectiveness are not as good as those of the Beijing camp. On the way here, some generals showed their bravery and took the initiative to lead troops to find and fight the Japanese pirates. However, they suffered several defeats in succession and their morale dropped sharply. In addition, there are veteran generals who hold their own seniority and have high status and rich experience, but they are not very obedient to orders.
It is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. In such a situation, how to go out to suppress the Japanese? ! With today's military strength and combat power, they are no match for the Japanese pirates. Failure will only make the Japanese pirates more arrogant, make the people more disappointed, and make the situation worse.
Therefore, we cannot act rashly. We must wait for the arrival of capable troops such as Guangdong and Guangxi wolf soldiers and Shandong spearmen before sending troops to suppress the Japanese.
The wolf soldiers of Guangdong and Guangxi are powerful and capable of fighting. In the past, he served as governor of Guangdong and Guangxi and was deeply loved by the wolf soldiers. He commanded the wolf soldiers like a finger. After the wolf soldiers arrive, after careful deployment, they are confident that they can complete the battle.
If you don't move, it's done. If you move, it's done!
So, Zhang Jing glanced at Zhao Wenhua impatiently and said coldly, "Now is not the time to send troops to destroy the Japanese. Master Zhao can just sacrifice to the sea with his heart. The matter of suppressing the Japanese is my own responsibility. Mr. Zhao doesn’t have to worry about the arrangements.”
Zhao Wenhua’s expression turned ugly, “Not now. When is the time to send out troops?”
“This officer has his own arrangements. The sacrifice to the sea is coming soon, so Mr. Zhao should focus on the sacrifice to the sea.”
< br>Zhang Jing was too lazy to pay attention to Zhao Wenhua anymore, and dismissed Zhao Wenhua with a very official perfunctory sentence.
"What arrangements does Governor Zhang have that I cannot tell this officer? Governor Zhang needs to remember that in addition to the imperial envoys who worship the sea, I also have the imperial envoys who supervise military affairs. I have the right and responsibility to know Governor Zhang's arrangements for the suppression of Japanese pirates."< br>
Zhao Wenhua’s face turned dark, and he said to Zhang Jing angrily. In order to persuade Zhang Jing, Zhao Wenhua moved out of Emperor Jiajing.
"Master Zhao also said that your imperial envoy is to supervise military affairs, not to direct military affairs." Zhang Jing said lightly.
"You" Zhao Wenhua was choked and couldn't speak for a while, but he was also a veteran in officialdom and quickly found a way to break the situation. He said word by word, "Yes, my imperial envoy is Supervising military affairs does not mean directing military affairs, but It is to supervise military affairs, which naturally includes supervising how Governor Zhang and the generals direct military affairs."
"I still have to inspect the military camps. I don't have time to play word games with Mr. Zhao. Please go back, Mr. Zhao."< br>
Zhang Jing stood up and said.
“I am not playing a word game with Governor Zhang, and suppressing Japanese pirates is not a game. Today, Xu Hai, Maye, Chen Dong and other Japanese pirates have conquered Chongde. Countless Chongde people are lying dead and bloody. It flows into a river, and the dead people are waiting for us to save them To avenge the enemy, the living people are waiting for us to destroy the Japanese pirates and bring them safety. The Holy Spirit is also waiting for us to sing our victory song in Xiyuan! Governor Zhang, I only ask today, when will we send troops to suppress the Japanese?" Zhao Wenhua stopped Zhang Jing. In front of him, he asked without giving in.
"I will send troops when the time comes!" Zhang Jing was stopped by Zhao Wenhua, and he was even more unhappy and said impatiently.
"At that time? Haha, Governor Zhang is afraid of the Japanese pirates, and wants to wait for the Japanese pirates to steal their feet and escape, so he can repay the favor by suppressing the remaining pirates, right?"
Zhao Wenhua sneered.
"Fart! I'm waiting for the wolf soldiers from Guangdong and Guangxi to arrive!" Zhang Jing was so angry at Zhao Wenhua's words that he cursed. (End of this chapter)
