- Cooperate with each other and complement each other's advantages.
——This is Wu Sangui’s purpose. He knows the Qiong Navy very well and knows the advantages and strengths of this army. He believed that in a face-to-face battle, no army in the world could be a match for the Greenskin Army. The short-haired sea power is also unmatched in the world. Their only weakness, or the weakness they still have at the moment, is their lack of cavalry.
In the dense forests of the south and Liaodong, cavalry is of little use. But when fighting on the great plains of the north and Mongolia, the side with cavalry has a great advantage. Just being able to choose fighters at any time gave him the greatest initiative. It was precisely because Huang Taiji realized this that he decided to fight a decisive battle with the southern greenskins near Beijing.
“Wu Sangui also saw this, so he felt that if he came to Short Hair to discuss cooperation at this time, he would not be rejected. After the Battle of Lushun, their Liao Town soldiers and horses no longer dared to compete with the Qiong Town greenskins in terms of the army's combat effectiveness, but Wu Sangui believed that his own cavalry could somewhat make up for the short-haired army's weakness in mobility and reconnaissance - you guys Qiongzhen's firearms are indeed powerful, but our Liaozhen cavalry is not bad either. Although we dare not fight the Tatars alone, they can be used as auxiliary forces to cover the battlefield and protect the flanks of the infantry. This aspect can always play a role.
As long as Qiong Haijun can win the next battle, the Liao Town troops and horses that cooperate with it will definitely be able to share part of the credit. When the time comes, they will use this as a reason to argue with the Ming court. Have you been cleared of the crime of avoiding war?
So Wu Sangui was indeed sincere in cooperating, but after hearing his intention, Pang Yujiexi only glanced at each other, and there was no need to discuss. Both of them immediately understood each other's thoughts - no way!
Are you kidding, fighting together with Liao Zhen? Maybe even Wu Sangui himself doesn't know what is the most famous deed of the Liao Town Guan Ning Army in later generations - he transferred to sell his teammates before the formation! In the history of the late Ming Dynasty, anyone who cooperated with Liao Zhen in fighting was unlucky in the end. Even the cunning and cunning Hong Chengchou could not escape - in the Battle of Songjin, which determined the fate of the Ming Dynasty, it was Wu Sangui's escape that led to the complete collapse of the Ming army's war situation and the capture of Hong Chengchou himself.
“Perhaps Wu Sangui was not so tactful and cunning at this time, perhaps he sincerely wanted to cooperate with Qiong Haijun. But Jie Xi and Pang Yu would not agree with this strategy in any case. They don't want to have a group of "friendly troops" around them who may run away at any time or even turn against them.
"However, we cannot refuse this matter directly. After all, Comrade Xiao Wu is still, at least on the surface, a good boy who is striving to pursue "loyalty and filial piety" and wants to be a loyal minister and general of the Ming Dynasty. Breaking his illusion prematurely and triggering his "evolution" or darkening would not do Qiong Haijun any good.
As for how to evade, it is not difficult for a veteran like Pang Yu and Xi - after all, Wu Sangui is only in his twenties now and has little experience, so it is not difficult to fool him. Jie and Pang have been partners for a long time, and they have a tacit understanding at the first glance of each other. According to the old rules, Pang Yu still comes out to play the bad guy:
"General Xiao Wu, if I'm not mistaken, you hope to join forces with us and obtain military exploits against the Jin Army to exonerate your father-in-law who fled the battle - is this what you mean?"
The words were very clear, leaving no room for excuses. Wu Sangui’s face changed color from red to white for a while, and finally he gritted his teeth and nodded:
"exactly!"
"So, there is such a problem"
Pang Yu had a smile on her face, but the words coming out of her mouth were as sharp as a knife:
"What kind of image does our Qiong Navy have in the Ming Dynasty? General Xiao Wu, you should have some idea. The Liaodong military town took the initiative to seek cooperation without the permission of the Ming Dynasty court General Xiao Wu, do you think the princes in the DPRK are concerned about this?" What do you think?"
Wu Sangui was stunned for a moment, and then his face that had just calmed down began to change again - the young man was still young after all, could not control his emotions, and was not too confident. When Pang Yu said this, he immediately hesitated.
What was Qiong Haijun’s image in the Ming Dynasty? ——The army's food and salary are all handled by oneself, and the court cannot intervene, and the so-called "obey the seal but not the declaration", then it is a standard vassal town! Under normal circumstances, this kind of group should have been suppressed long ago, but Qiong Haijun has been able to survive to this day. The reason is very simple - the court cannot defeat or destroy it, so it can only admit their existence.
What did the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty think of short-haired people? ——There are still a bunch of rebels, but because we can't help them, we have to temporarily recruit them and give them some good treatment. But "sooner or later this group of people will have to be dealt with in the future" - although Wu Sangui was a military general, he also knew that there were many people in the court who held this view.
The Shorthairs themselves know it very well, but they don’t seem to care. Sometimes they even deliberately talk about the word "anti-thief"to frighten opponents who try to use "court rules" to threaten them. Not to mention that this trick is very effective, at least so far, those civil servants have never been able to get any advantage from short hair unless they are willing.
But the Shorthair dared to be so arrogant because they relied on the powerful Qiong Navy behind them and their stronger economic strength. They had little dependence on the Ming Dynasty, and of course they did not need to look at the court's face. But can Liaodong Town do this? Liao Zhen's military force is said to be very strong, but it was entirely provided by the imperial court with money and people. Up and down the Liao Town, tens of thousands of soldiers, armor, food and pay were completely dependent on the supply from the Ming court. The officers in Liao Town dared to embezzle, defy, and even escape from the battlefield, but after all, these people did not have the courage to say "our army and the court have no control over it."
"General Xiao Wu, you also know what kind of virtue those civil servants have. You still have to pick out a bone from the egg. If you are not careful enough this time, even if your Liao Town has achieved great achievements on the battlefield, I am afraid it will not be the same." They can't help but fan the evil wind behind their backs and light up the will-o'-the-wisps, saying 'have different aspirations'."
Pang Yu smiled and said, Wu Sangui was stunned and couldn't help but ask:
"Aren't you afraid?"
Pang Yu laughed:
"Of course we are not afraid, because we don't expect the Ming Dynasty to believe that we have no deviant ambitions. We are a foreign vassal, so the court must be gentle and appease us, and you are the Ming Dynasty's own people, so we must be careful with you. Can you understand the difference?"
?? Wu Sangui mused. If he continued to express himself at this time, his "loyalty" to the Ming Dynasty would be greatly reduced. However, this was not Pang Yu's goal, so he did not say more. Without waiting for Wu Sangui to respond, Pang Yu pointed at himself again:
"Besides, this matter is not only related to Liao Town, but also to General Xiao Wu yourself - don't you want your bright future in the future?"
Wu Sangui had already been frightened by Pang Yu. When he heard that he was involved, his face suddenly became solemn, he cupped his hands towards Pang Yu and said:
"How do you say this? Do you still want Military Advisor Pang to give you advice?"
Pang Yu laughed, but first asked:
"Who had the final say in the military affairs of Liaodong?"
"It belongs to Uncle Ning Yuan's family."
"Yes, Uncle Ning Yuan, Li Chengliang, and his many good sons: Li Rusong, Li Rumei, Li Ruzhang, Li Rubaithe stars are like clouds. Liaodong was originally the domain of the Li family army, but unfortunately it has fallen now. Li Yongfang has lost all of them. The ancestor’s face has completely lost the glory of the Li family army.”
"Today's Liao Town is the ancestral army. Zu Dashou, Zu Dalue, Zu Dabi, Zu Kuan there are many brave generals. It's a pity that my uncle failed to last to the end in the battle of Daling River and surrendered to the Tartars. son."
"That was just a stop-gap measure! Then he escaped back!"
Wu Sangui immediately argued that Zu Dashou was both his uncle and a core figure in Liaodong Town, and he had to defend him both publicly and privately. However, Pang Yu did not argue with him and just said calmly:
"I heard that the emperor summoned him to the capital for an audience. Did he go? Or let's put it more directly - does he dare to leave Jinzhou City now?"
Wu Sangui stopped talking. The short-haired people knew everything about Liaodong, and it was pointless to hold on in front of them. It was just embarrassing. This group of people had no loyalty to the Ming Dynasty anyway, and proving to them that their uncle's loyalty to the imperial court was meaningless.
And what Pang Yu said next made Wu Sangui prick up his ears:
"Although General Zu Dashou saved his life after this disaster, his control over the armies in Liao Town must have been greatly reduced. And Zu Zerun and Zu Zefu will obviously no longer be able to represent Liaodong generals in the future. Among the next generation of generals in Liao Town, it seems that you, General Xiao Wu, will be the leader at the moment. If nothing else happens, it will only be a matter of time before the Zu Family Army becomes the Wu Family Army."
"Stopstop talking nonsense!"
Wu Sangui almost jumped up in shock, pointing his finger at Pang Yu, his face twisted, but he just said this sentence and there was no more.
Pang Yu ignored him and still smiled to himself:
"Courageous champion of the three armies, filial piety to all sides - General Xiao Wu, keep this reputation well, this is your greatest advantage. The Ming Dynasty court needs a leader of Liao Town who is both loyal and filial, but also brave and good at fighting, and for the ancestors For General Dashou, a close nephew is more trustworthy than an outsider who is not related by blood. Grasp the balance and your future path will be broad."
Pang Yu’s words sounded incomprehensible, but in fact they were all nonsense - he didn’t need to say it at all. Wu Sangui in history was originally like this.Along the way, Shunshun Dangdang became the commander-in-chief of Liao Town. But Wu Sangui didn't know it at this time. When he heard it, he just thought it made sense and nodded involuntarily.
But Pang Yu went on to say:
"However, if General Xiao Wu takes the initiative to collude with our Qiongzhen rebels, then the big guys in the court may have some doubts in their hearts. Will they recognize your 'loyalty and filial piety'? It’s hard to say.”
After finishing speaking, Pang Yu looked at the other party with a smile. Wu Sangui was stunned for a long time. After all, he was not an ordinary military commander, and he did not completely believe Pang Yu's words. After thinking for a moment, he snorted and still said unwillingly:
"Aren't many nobles from the capital also married to you? Aren't they afraid of the imperial court's taboo?"
Pang Yu chuckled lightly:
"You also know that they are nobles. What do these people have besides the titles and wealth passed down from their ancestors? Their titles are with the country. In essence, like the old Zhu family, they are also part of the Ming Dynasty. Their marriage to us means that the Ming Dynasty royal family is wooing us, how dare you, Liao Town, think so?"
Looking at Wu Sangui who was stunned, Pang Yu smiled and suddenly said something he couldn't understand at all:
"The monk can touch it, but you can't."
