Chapter 377 376 Maybe it’s not that bad

When Lao Kan mentioned Ouyang Yijing's request, Wei Guangde looked down at the teacup in front of him, and after a while he said, "I haven't had time to think about this in the past few days, but since I've got it all, I have to give it a try."

"The reason why you are staying home because of illness is because of the incident in Datong?"

Now, news of the critical situation in the northern border town has spread in the north. Although most people didn't understand the secret at first, there were quite a few people who understood it. They pointed it out and spread it by word of mouth. Naturally, everyone knew about it.

Wei Guangde didn't hide anything. When he heard Lao Kan talking about it, he nodded slightly, "The trouble in Datong not only failed to assist, but also sold Yansui and Ningxia's troops."

"No way to solve it?"

Lao Kan asked.

Many people are talking about this matter in their spare time these days. Although it seems that the court has not introduced any measures to deal with it, I think the Ministry of War has already considered it. It is just like the last time it sent troops from two towns to sweep the Hetao. I am afraid that it is keeping secrets from the court officials.

.

Lao Kan naturally listened quietly to such a discussion.

He didn't know how to fight, but he also hoped that the north could avert danger and at least resolve Wei Guangde's relationship. Although he couldn't offer any opinions, he could always be a listener.

"Unless the Datong Army performs a miracle."

When the topic came up about the war, Wei Guangde replied with some lack of interest.

In fact, when he was in Xiyuan, Wei Guangde heard Emperor Jiajing asking about Li Wenjin and Liu Han. Wei Guangde was not familiar with them, so he naturally paid attention to Yang Bo's introduction, but was naturally disappointed afterwards.

Although Wei Guangde also thought of Yu Dayou, his current identity was only a assigned prison officer. Even if Li Wenjin trusted him, he would not be able to take over the command of this war.

According to the official document sent from Datong, Wei Guangde understood that Li Wenjin was guarding Datong. After all, he was a civilian official and could not go out to fight with the Tatars. Therefore, the commander of the army would only be the commander-in-chief Liu Han.

This is also written in the official document. Liu Han commanded the war, and the governor Li Wenjin took over.

According to Yang Bo's introduction, Wei Guangde knew that although he didn't know how they planned it in the first place, with Liu Han's methods and without fortifying the city, facing a surprise attack by the Anta army, the Ming army's defeat was almost certain.

When camping in the wild, the defenses are actually relatively simple. According to the standards of the Ming army, wooden fences are erected, and trenches are dug outside the fences to delay the enemy's attack.

The Tatar camp was even worse, and they were not even prepared for the deep ditch.

If a camp in the wild is strong, there are many ways to break it.

As for letting Yu Dayou take command, although Wei Guangde didn't know how high Yu Dayou's military talents were, judging from his performance after arriving in Zhejiang to suppress the Japanese, he won more than he lost, and from his promotion to the rank of chief military officer, his commanding ability was clear.

There should be no shortage.

But after all, this is a war in the south, and the war in the north is still very different from the war in the south.

Moreover, now that Yu Dayou is in Datong, he may not even have a chance to speak at high-level military meetings and is not qualified enough.

However, in comparison, Wei Guangde still felt that Yu Dayou might have a better commanding ability than Liu Han. Didn't Yu Dayou build a unicycle chariot not long ago?

This also shows that Yu Dayou used his brain to fight. He had realized the huge gap between the Ming infantry and the Tatar cavalry, so he wanted to use equipment to change something.

It is a pity that he is an officer in the end.

The only thing that comforted him was that if Li Wenjin defended Datong, then Yu Dazhen should be by his side. After Liu Hancao's original soldiers defeated, Yu Dazhen helped, Datong Town should not be defeated, at least for a period of time, he can still be expected.

The official documents of Li Wenjin and Liu Han did not mention Yu Dazhen's name. It was not to say that they wanted to occupy Yu Dazhen's credit, but could not mention it. One was that he was an officer after all, and the other was the first assistant of the DPRK.

Unwilling to offend.

After fighting, under the premise of winning a big battle, you can make some contributions, and then it is not appropriate. At this time, it is not appropriate.

"well"

Hearing Wei Guangde's words, he sighed, and then asked again: "What do you plan to do?"

"Find a place to see if you can do it."

In the past, if Wei Guangde was transferred to the place, with his saints, he still had a chance to mix a government, although it was very difficult.

But now I dare not think about it, I can rust to Zhizhou, even if it is a good thing.

However, these may now be extravagant. The official positions that are judged by the same type of fear are the most likely to fall on his head, that is, the grade will not be improved.

Anyway, Wei Guangde is a little regretful now. If there is no such thing, he will not have to worry about it.

Today, Lao Kanyi came to Wei Guangde. One is to care about this fellow and know that he has some difficulties now. Second, he still wants to see if Wei Guangde can help.

Speaking of which, Lao Kanyi stayed in the Ministry of Criminal Affairs. He heard that the position of the head of the department had to be empty, so he wanted to ask and find Wei Guangde to get an idea.

In fact, Wei Guangde invested in Yuwang's Mansion, and it was already a public secret in Beijing.

There is no way, but Yuwang's Mansion must have it. After all, the principal is only six grades, and it is just an unswerving official position in the middle of the DPRK.

Now seeing Wei Guangde's appearance, Lao Kan chose to shut up, and did not plan to mention it.

After eating and drinking, I talked again for a while, and worked as a result of the rhetoric.

Wei Guangde sent Lao to the door, and then turned back to the inner courtyard. He just entered the house and hadn't said two words to Xu Jianglan. There was a little girl in the outside hurriedly.

"Master, say there is a friend from a friend to visit."

"who?"

Wei Guangde turned and asked.

"I don't know, Zhang Ji only said it was a friend of the master."

That girl answered.

"Then I'll go out and see again."

Wei Guangde showed a bitter smile on Xu Jianglan, who got up and greeted. After all, it was so late, and there were still people who came to the door.

When Wei Guangde returned to the front yard, he already knew from Zhang Ji who was from who came.

Chen Ge.

I was a little wondering, but I also wanted to get through. Eight adults had already arrived outside the door, but I only knew that La Kang was there, so I didn't come in until La Kan left.

"Brother Chen, but you haven't come to sit here for a long time, drink and drink."

Wei Guangde said to Chen Jue when he entered the house.

Chen Jue is still a black hood today. It seems that the whole person is covered with tightness, but now he puts down the hood.

"Early, but I heard that the villagers were there, I didn't come in."

Chen Jue laughed.

After a few words of greetings, after the two sat down, Chen Jue asked seriously: "Is there really no chance of Datong?"

In Xiyuan that day, Emperor Jiajing also asked Wei Guangde. Wei Guangde was just a bitter smile.

I didn't want to come over two days later. I wanted to come to feel that Wei Guangde heard such news at first glance. It must be unable to get an idea. Maybe after two days, I couldn't know how to come up with a way.

However, what disappointed Chen Jue was that Wei Guangde returned the bitter smile.

"Well, then you talk about it, the worst result is that the sister -in -law defeated the Datong Army and Yan Sui, and after the Ningxia Army horse, where will you choose to break the level?"

Chen Jue asked immediately.

"The best place is Datong."

This, Wei Guangde had some considerations, and answered directly.

"What to say?"

"Breaking the wall of Datong, you can go to the back of Xuanfu along the Sanggan River Valley, and then the Xuanfu army can be affected by the enemy."

"What about the worst result? You continue to say."

Chen Jue continued to ask.

"The worst thing is that Datong and Xuanfu were broken, and the sister -in -law occupied the two cities.

When Wei Guangde said this, his expression disappeared bitterly, and he didn't know what his face was now.

When Chen Jue heard the words, his face was ugly.

"You go to Xuanfu, can you keep Xuanfu?"

After a moment of silence, Chen Jue suddenly asked again.

"Can't guarantee, you can only do your best."

Wei Guangde moved at this moment. I am afraid that the Emperor Jiajing would ask.

Throw yourself to Xuanfu, win the calculation of the county, and don't come back if you lose it.

Looking at Chen Jue's silence again, Wei Guangde asked: "Brother Chen, is there any problem?"

"Your opinion is the same as Yang Shangshu. His Majesty wants to hear that the sister -in -law enters Shaanxi from Yan Sui."

Chen Jue said in a low voice, "In the misfortune ten years ago, the emperor didn't want to be embarrassed anymore."

The place is coated with charcoal, and now it seems unavoidable. Naturally, if you want to reduce losses and influence, the land of Gyeonggi cannot withstand the loss.

Wei Guangde blinked, but the body that was a bit stunned just sat upright. Chen Jue thought that Wei Guangde was going to say something, such as how to let him go to Xuanfu, at least let the emperor in Xiyuan feel at ease,

What I don't want to hear in my ears is another view.

"What I just said is actually the worst result, but in my opinion, if the answer department directly breaks Yan Sui, it is their big luck."
