Chapter 97 Assassination
A fierce palace-torn drama, as soon as the opening gongs and drums were played, Zhu Youlang quickly brought the curtain to the forefront by using thunderous means.
His actions showed people his determination: I must be arbitrary and have great power. No one else can get involved. Eunuchs can do it, and civil servants can't do it.
Loyal ministers think it is very correct. Their pursuit is to be loyal to the emperor and love the people. The emperor has already demonstrated the "people-oriented" idea of governing the country. Following such a monarch and doing something practical for the people is what loyal ministers should do. Moreover, in today's troublesome situation, a strong master is indeed needed, which is easier to make quick decisions and easier to unite all parties.
Those civil officials with ulterior motives were frightened by the emperor's methods - this emperor would kill people if he was unhappy, but he would not be so spoiled by literati. He should do things honestly for his own wealth and life.
...
The situation in the court quickly stabilized, but Zhu Youlang was worried about Dai Yilan's incident.
What's this? I'm about to get it done here and I'm going to enthrone you. You're gone! Isn't this a way to get rid of the firewood?
Alan, a child who is heartless, would definitely not think I was embarrassed. She has always had confidence in me. If she could tell her to start a mountain camp and block the words of those opponents by making achievements, she would probably be bewitched by others.
Don’t think too much, it must be Zhao Yuqiao, and Chen Zizhuang’s idea behind it.
It is not possible to say that Chen Zizhuang did the wrong thing. In that case, if the civil officials cannot theoretically refute the civil servants, it would be good to think of a way to remove the firewood from the bottom of the pot.
After all, he did not explain his real idea to Chen Zizhuang. Chen Zizhuang used this method to share his worries. Although it was a bit sleek and not as straightforward as Qu Shisi and Chen Bangyan, it was also a manifestation of loyalty.
The key is what to do now? What to do where Alan?
Setting up a mountain camp? She knows what a mountain camp is? Is it enough to just cross mountains and ridges?
Mountain troops are not that simple.
First of all, a good mountain force must do the following five points:
First, concentrate forces and seize points and control the road; second, covert maneuver and sudden attack; third, interspersed and detoured, in-depth attacks; fourth, independent operations, fragmented and divided J-jong; fifth, combined combat and suppression, and stalemate in close combat.
Secondly, mountain combat requires high quality of soldiers. The protagonist of mountain combat is soldiers. There is no doubt that due to the special geographical environment of the mountains, people are very dependent on people during the battle. Soldiers of mountain troops often undergo strict training to master survival skills such as mountain climbing, rock climbing, and rescue, and can complete combat tasks in complex mountain environments.
Third, mountain combat requires high command capabilities for professional officers. The big difference between mountain combat and plains and hilly combat is that geographical factors have become an insurmountable factor. In mountain combat, grassroots officers of mountain troops must have excellent qualities, be familiar with the characteristics of mountain warfare, and have strong physical fitness and high tactical qualities, so they can be competent for independent combat in groups composed of several individual soldiers.
Therefore, as the commander of such a unit, one must master the tactics of mountain offensive and combat based on understanding the characteristics of the mountain and grasping the influence of the mountain. Only in this way can one achieve the state of "the wonderful use of the essence is in one mind".
Alan doesn’t have much culture and doesn’t know much about Chinese characters. Can she be competent for such a role? It definitely won’t work.
However, since she has this intention and her special identity, it is not difficult to pull up a young and strong team of hundreds of people. These young and strong people in Zhuang people should be no problem, climbing and rock climbing. They just need to work hard on battlefield survival and grassroots command, and maybe they can really form a special force.
All I need to do is to give her support in terms of money, food and talents.
It’s easy to talk about money and grain, but my own treasury is abundant. Ding Kuichu’s 800,000 taels of gold and 2.4 million taels of silver are enough to form a large army, and there is no need to use the official treasury.
The most important thing is talent.
Based on the memories of my previous life, I could write a mountain combat textbook for her and let her train according to this textbook. I also had to send her some literate grassroots commanders, who could give her the greatest help.
However, it is really difficult to find such talents. First, you must be able to read, second, you must have good physical fitness, and it is best to be a child who grew up in the mountains. Once these two conditions are set, Zhu Youlang will be worried about staying there. Where can I find such a person?
"Li Hong, are there anyone who grew up in the mountains among the eunuchs? Or who have better foot strength?" Zhu Youlang asked Li Hong.
Li Hong thought for a while, shook his head and replied, "Emperor, there are few eunuchs in the palace, and most of them were brought by the emperor from Hengyang, and they really didn't grow up in the mountains."
Zhu Youlang wanted to send a eunuch to Dai Yilan first and bring her some money and slowly find a way to do the talent matter, but he didn't want to get stuck on the eunuch.
What should I do? You can’t go to the mountains to get someone to castrate someone, right?
If you don’t send eunuchs to send guards? Zhu Youlang is not relieved. Don’t be so stupid as to find trouble.
Forget it, don’t think too much, just find a eunuch, practice it without climbing the mountain, why don’t you worry so much? We are the emperor, can we care so much about other people’s feelings? It’s true.
"Li Hong, I sent an order to ask Wu Xin to serve Alan, and asked him to go to the Internal Affairs Office to pay 10,000 taels of silver for Alan to use. Tell Wu Xin that if Miss Dai still needs silver, I will send me a letter to you. If there is an urgent matter, I can go to Xunzhou Prefecture to borrow it temporarily."
Wu Xin is a little eunuch in Qinzheng Hall. He looks very clever and even knows a few words.
"I obey the order!"
Li Hong bowed and replied.
Chen Bowen saw the emperor's anxiety, but he didn't know what the emperor was doing.
It was not until the Emperor personally wrote the "Summary of Mountain Battles" that he realized that the Emperor's anxiety came from the lack of trustworthy talents.
Zhu Youlang spent the whole day writing "A summary of mountain combat". Except for asking the Empress Dowager for two invitations to the Empress Dowager, he did not move in Qinzheng Hall.
It was not until Hai Zheng that he finished writing. Zhu Youlang stopped writing and looked at the sky outside. He found that it was too late, so he gave up his plan to go to Wang Chang to sleep.
Back at the side hall of Qinzheng Hall, Chunlan served him to wash his face and feet, and Zhu Youlang lay on the couch and asked Chunlan to massage his waist. As he pressed it, he fell asleep.
"Canglang!"
Suddenly, a sound of gold and iron clashing awakened Zhu Youlang!
Zhu Youlang suddenly sat up and heard the sound of swords and swords colliding from the main hall. Strangely, he did not hear the voices.
Chapter completed!
