"I don't have time to listen to you, Lord Wei, talk about the great truths in a long way. I can be better than you! I am not your student, so I don't have to be taught. What should you do if you want to take Ma Shilong now?" Sun Chengzong asked coldly.

"I sent Ma Shilong himself to the capital yesterday to the self-debate and impeachment of Ma Shilong. How can we decide this kind of thing privately? Of course, I would like to ask Your Majesty to decide it personally, and Your Majesty will naturally discuss it with the cabinet ministers." Wei Bao said calmly.

Yesterday, I sent Ma Shilong's self-debate and impeachment of Ma Shilong to the capital? Humph, what a quick hand!

Sun Chengzong said angrily: ‘Since that’s the case, what else are you talking to me?’

"I'm not mainly about Ma Shilong's affairs. I want to ask my mentor about the situation in Liaodong, about the abolition of some troops in Ji Liao and Liaodong, and about the combat plan for Jiannu. As the Ji Liao army supervisor, I want to know the idea of ​​the commander. Isn't this an excessive?" Wei Bao put away his smile, took out his official power, and found a seat to sit on his own.

Not to mention being arrogant, Wei Bao at least puts himself in a position of equal power as Sun Chengzong.

Wei Bao should talk to Sun Chengzong in an equal manner!

Seeing that Wei Bao was a little arrogant, Sun Chengzong looked at Wei Bao squintly, and wanted Wei Bao to stand up, but he finally held it back.

As the governor of Ji Liao, he was in his sixties. If he was as cunning as a person who was about the same age as Wei Bao, he would have underestimated Wei Bao.

"Mr. Wei is such a great official power! If you want to know my attitude, the chapter I have submitted to the court in the past has already made it clear!" Sun Chengzong retorted coldly.

"Now I am asking the Chief Supervisor. As the Chief Supervisor, I want to listen to the Chief Supervisor, and I don't have the time to go to the court to read any chapter." Wei Bao said with a smile.

"You!" Sun Chengzong was really angry with Wei Bao, and felt that Wei Bao was just holding a chicken feather as a command arrow! "You are not worthy of talking to me like this, even if you are Your Majesty, you can't talk to me like this! What are you!"

"I am the Jiliao Army Supervisor!" Wei Bao said coldly: "Mr., this is your biggest problem. As a military supervisor, I will discuss military affairs with you. What is your attitude? You are like this to me, a disciple. What is your attitude towards others? Just dare to contradict the military supervisor appointed by the court to the people below you, and you can see that your mentor is ineffective in governing the military on weekdays! This is a bit harsh. If you are not my mentor, I will report to the court directly! Impulse my mentor! But you are my mentor, so I decided to explain it to the teacher privately!"

Sun Chengzong was so angry that his whole body was trembling all over by Wei Bao. This was the first time he had been confronted like this in person. He was so angry that he could not speak at all.

"Actually, what my teacher wants is, I know very well. I am not saying that my teacher's starting point is not good, but I want to say that my teacher only takes a defensive attitude towards Ji Liao, and only knows that he is blindly defending, which is a waste of money and money! So my teacher heard that I want to disarmament, and it must be very resistant! In fact, as long as your teacher is willing to continue to maintain the Dongjiang Army, the Guanning Army will be enough to cultivate to Ningyuan Juehua, and the rest can be relied on Dongjiang to continuously bleed Jiannu. As long as Jiannu cannot eat the sweetness of expedition to western Liaoning, they dare not take such a big risk and have no rear combat. Moreover, the current situation is that Jiannu's family has no surplus grain. After all, every time he fights western Liaoning and Jizhou, he has eaten too much sweetness. You can't fight by yourself, but after losing too much later, you can still tell some generals who can fight wars after losing too much later. Moreover, the situation is that Jiannu's family has no surplus food. After all, he has eaten too much sweetness every time he fights western Liaoning and Jizhou. You can't fight by yourself, but after losing too much later, you can still tell some generals who can fight wars. After that, you can still tell some warriors who can fight with more wars after losing too much later. Moreover, the situation is that Jiannu's family has no surplus food. After all, every time you fight western Liaoning, Jizhou, you have eaten too much sweetness. You can't fight by yourself. But after losing too much later, you can still tell some warriors who can fight with war

Ma Shilong also made many military achievements. But these are not decisive factors, because your major policy is completely wrong! If you give up Liaodong, it should be better to return to Shanhaiguan. First, it can avoid the vassalization of Liaodong, and second, it can strengthen the defenses around the capital to prevent the Jurchens from entering the pass and plundering. If the situation continues to deteriorate, the future peasant rebellion will surging and show great expansion! It can also reduce a lot of military expenditure. With the current crisis of the Ming Dynasty, who can reduce military expenditure, who can make Your Majesty's treasury and your Majesty's pockets bulge, who is right! Without Zhang Juzheng's reform, what ability does the Wanli Dynasty have to continue to fight for expeditions? Now, we have changed from a full-scale attack to a full-scale defense. Have you not thought about the problem?" Wei Bao said coldly.

Sun Chengzong had thought about what Wei Bao said, but he did not agree with it!

"As you said, I am the one who causes the problems of the Ming Dynasty? I don't want them anymore?"

"It's not that you don't want it, but you will use Liaodong as a strategic buffer zone. In a comprehensive military area, only soldiers can travel and completely blockade Jiannu! There are no need to have many people. One or two thousand people in each city are enough. If you lose it, try to grab it back. The main focus is to train the ability of military field combat. With Shanhaiguan, the world's first pass, blocking, there is no need to worry that Jiannu will break through from Liaodong to Beizhili!"

Wei Bao said: "In this way, fewer troops and military expenditures are reduced, and they can still maintain a stable defense. Why not? It is precisely because of strengthening the Liaodong defense line that the defense around the capital is empty. If this continues, the Guanning Army, the last field force of the Ming Dynasty, will eventually become a warlord, and will basically not obey the order in the later stage. Even if it is as weak as the Song Dynasty, the field force has not been so weak. Therefore, the surrounding areas of the capital will be destroyed again and again in the future, and in the end, the anti-military army will be able to break through the capital without any obstacles. Does the mentor want such a result?"

"All nonsense! The court has not reached that situation, my Ming Dynasty is still very powerful! Do you ignore the decency of the Ming Dynasty? Do you ignore the decency of Your Majesty and the court? If it is really as you said, how can the billions of Ming people behave? Moreover, it would be fine if you don't increase troops from Ji Liao and Liaodong to increase food and military pay, but you still want to disarmament. Is this going to completely give up the encirclement and suppression of Jiannu and admit that Jiannu seized a large area of ​​Shenyang? Where did you and put the dignity of the court? You are Wei Zhongxian's accomplice! When Wang Zaijin proposed this, I suspected that Wei Zhongxian was instructing him behind his back. I didn't expect that you were my disciple and actually went with Wei Zhongxian!" Sun Chengzong said angrily.

Wang Zaijin gave up the Liaodong strategy of operating Liaodong and Sun. Since it could be proposed in the officialdom at that time, it was not impossible to implement it.

The Central Plains dynasties defended the northern nomadic peoples in the direction of the Mongolian grasslands, and there was no talk of invasion from Liaodong.

There was only one Goguryeo, and the Qing Dynasty fish hunting nation invaded by the invasion of Liaodong. Wei Bao, who came in from the Mongolian direction, really didn't find any effect on Liaodong.

Of course, after the rise of sea power, the significance of Liaodong was very different. Unfortunately, the combat effectiveness of the Qing Dynasty was basically zero!

Could it be that the Qing Dynasty bypassed Liaodong was not because Liaodong invested a lot of resources to defend it?

Just because you keep it, you can't say that the enemy has not defeated the defense war, such as resource investment, is a waste.

The empty defense around the capital is not because of strengthening the Liaodong defense, but because there is no danger to defend around the capital.

Otherwise, Shanhaiguan can also be abandoned, as long as there are 200,000 troops in Beijing.

The defense line was recovered to Shanhaiguan and used the tens of millions of silver in Ningjin to reinforce Jizhen.

Give Houjin a multiple-choice question, either go further and fight against the weaker Jizhen, or go closer and fight against Shanhaiguan.

Decisive battles are used to consume the later money.

Wang Zaijin's strategy was equivalent to tying the country's destiny to the Shanhaiguan Guard, which was too risky.

It is not without reason to stick to Liaodong, but Liao Town finally became a warlord. There is no right or wrong in this strategy, only pros and cons.

In fact, Wei Bao’s view is from the perspective of God and from the perspective of rebirth and time travel.

Sun Chengzong could not see what happened later, because Sun Chengzong would not have been able to see the whole family died in battle because he would resist Jiannu in a few years.

Wei Bao knew very well that in the original history and in the history of fighting against Jiannu, Ning Yuan had never lost it, so how could Shanhaiguan, the first heroic pass, not be able to defend it?

Unfortunately, Wei Bao couldn't explain this to Sun Chengzong, and he couldn't make Sun Chengzong convinced.

No concessional regime in all dynasties would take the initiative to give in, thinking about the loss of land by saving people. Chang'an is a strong city, Bianliang is a strong city, Lin'an and Beijing are both strong cities, and Junbao is the world's number one fortress. If you can't defend it, you will not be able to defend it.

Only when Wu Sangui surrendered could the Qing Dynasty enter the pass.

The limit of logistics distance of the Qing Dynasty could not support it to attack Jizhou across most of the western Liaoning Corridor, let alone attacking the capital, which could only scare people.

In Wei Bao's opinion, Sun Chengzong was just standing on the name of the great power, and strategy, it was not possible.

"Mr., this is a bad word. Beating Jiannu is like stewing a pot of meat with thick skin, or with enough firewood, and stewing meat for a month. You must not have a few firewood today. If there is no firewood, you will be cold for a few months. After a few months, you will stew it for half a day. After a few months, you will stew it for half a day. In this way, the pot of meat will never be stewed! I don't believe that my teacher has been in Liaodong for so many years, and I can't understand this truth! Do you think the imperial court has a way to find you for firewood for several months to stew meat? Should you try not to let the pot break and prepare the firewood first? When is the firewood enough? Then stew it?" Wei Bao thought about this metaphor of stewing meat for a while, and now he said it to Sun Chengzong, and it feels so comfortable.

Sun Chengzong listened a little, remained silent, and fell into deep thought.

He had thought about these questions, but the character of the Ming Dynasty did not allow people like him to think like this!

Isn’t this a passive and lazy war? Is it a waste of people?

We have received the salary from the court, so we should naturally be anxious about the court's concerns, and share the worries of the court and His Majesty.

"Do you dare to submit a memorial to the court for discussion what you said?" Sun Chengzong looked at Wei Bao, "If Your Majesty agrees with your statement, I have nothing to say! What do you want to do in the future? You, Lord Wei, have great military talents and can even take your family slave to defeat Jiannu. What's the harm that I, the Ji Liao governor, gave you?"

"Mr., don't say angry words! Although my words are not nice, you just listen to it and admit that what I said makes sense! How can you say these things on the table? Be loyal to the court, not only knowing how to spend money to train troops and take the blame for the court, but also loyalty! I don't have enough qualifications, otherwise I will be the commander of Ji Liao. If I don't say much, I will be a hundred times and a thousand times stronger than my teacher!" Wei Bao directly retorted: "With the existing resources of my teacher, I won't say that I will fight to Shenyang. At least I can make the population of Jiannu continue to decrease. It will make Jiannu not covet North Korea or Mongolia, let Jiannu do nothing in the north, and save a lot of money for the capital and the imperial treasury! Easing the increasingly intensified conflicts within the Ming Dynasty!"

Sun Chengzong looked at Wei Bao in shock. Wei Bao was really rude to say this, and he had no intention of showing mercy to him, the teacher.

"I don't need to say how much money my mentor spent. You know in your heart that you have trained an army that can fight? Or have you fought even a beautiful battle? Killing dozens of Jiannu can blow it to heaven. I killed tens of thousands of Jiannu people, and I am afraid that others will know." Wei Bao smiled and said, "I am not looking down on my mentor, nor am I deliberately angry with my mentor. I want to say a little heartfelt words. My mentor cannot achieve any results because you don't have the conditions at all! If the Ming Dynasty is rich and the people are strong today, and we will return to the situation when we were able to dispatch hundreds of thousands of troops to fight the Battle of Sarhu, it would be useless for you to work hard like this! You can only concentrate limited funds to practice firearms and cavalry. Only these two types of armies can really kill and hurt Jiannu."

Sun Chengzong had nothing to say, but Sun Chengzong himself knew that it was indeed a waste. He devoted almost all military spending to Liaodong, which led to the inability of other border defenses to be supplemented.

If the Later Jin conquered the Eastern Mongolian tribes, they could invade the Central Plains from the Mongol direction.

As the governor of Ji Liao, he had no choice but to fight against Mongolia or Korea!

Instead, only defend Shanhaiguan, save military expenditure to strengthen the defending forces in other directions and contact Mongolia.

If the Navy and the Bohai Bay islands are also ignored, if the Later Jin invades and walks through Shanhaiguan, they will face attacking troops that the Shanhaiguan defenders and the Ming Navy may log in from any direction. If they contact Mongolia, they can harass the Later Jin from the west.

Even if you don’t go to Shanhaiguan and go from Gubeikou, the defenders here will not be easily broken through without lack of military equipment. The navy and island garrison can also go to the territory of the Later Jin Dynasty to carry out sneak attacks, which is not as cost-effective as repairing artillery towers.

Can the gold in the future hold on like this?

Sun Chengzong had thought about these things, but he had no money in his hands, so he could only close his eyes, not look at them, and not think about them.

In fact, if Sun Chengzong was a powerful minister, the Ming Dynasty would have survived. But Sun Chengzong was not.

Sun Chengzong even felt that Wei Bao was more likely to become a powerful minister, at least Wei Bao dared to talk to him, the imperial master like this.

"I believe my teacher should have thought that in the long run, in addition to spending a lot of money, Liaodong will watch Mongolia and North Korea disappear. By then, the Ming Dynasty will become increasingly poor and weak. Because Jiannu has expanded its territory, he will have no worries. The land is vast and the resources are abundant, and the development is getting better and better. Finally, one day, the Ming Dynasty will collapse on its own. Will Jiannu go straight in?" Wei Bao continued.

"The more you say it, the less reasonable it is. I admit that what you said makes sense, but the Ming Dynasty has a vast territory and a sufficient population. Now I have encountered a little problem because of natural disasters. After this period, are you still afraid of not having money and food to deal with Jiannu?" Sun Chengzong retorted.

"Mr., you really can comfort yourself. As a cabinet minister, you have been a senior official for decades? Do you think the Ming Dynasty is a problem of natural disasters? Man-made disasters are far more serious than natural disasters, okay?" Wei Bao said: "You can't see or hear this party struggle? Or do you like to pretend to be deaf and dumb? If you have the ability to end the party struggle and restore the rule of the Ming Dynasty to be honest, let alone the small Jiannu, even ten Jiannu and one hundred Jiannu, will be wiped out in less than three months, but is this possible? A thousand miles of hardship is destroyed by an ant hole, and the three feet of freezing is not a day's cold! This is not something that the two of us can change here. As court officials, we can only judge the situation, cooperate with the current situation of the court, and make the best choice, rather than blindly betting on the future where no one knows what will happen! So, it is never wrong to make the worst plan!"

The problem of the Ming Dynasty was not that the Liaodong turret tactics were costly, but that it was that it gave up Dongjiang Town to the outside world, resulting in the inability to rely on the advantage of maritime power to hinder the Later Jin Dynasty, so that it could concentrate its troops. In the face of bandits, the provinces did not decisively open up the regiment training, and blindly dealt with the government army. As a result, it was exhausted and consumed money and food to finally collapse.

In fact, in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the group training was decisively opened up. After the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the group training was simply used as the main force of the Hunan Army and the Huai Army. Although the result was that the separatist situation of the feudal states was later created, the country's destiny lasted for at least half a century.

From this point of view, the Qing Dynasty was much better than the Ming Dynasty.

However, the character of the Ming Dynasty and the resoluteness of the Ming Dynasty did not allow these things to happen, just like until the Ming Dynasty went bankrupt, Chongzhen did not dare to openly discuss peace with Jiannu, let alone discuss peace with anti-public people.

Even though the Ming Dynasty was so strong, Emperor Ningyuan could not compromise on hanging himself.

On the one hand, the demand for fiscal collapse in the late Ming Dynasty was mostly due to the fact that the state machine was corrupt and the tax source could not be added to the literati and officials.

The conditions given by the Later Jin Dynasty were to maintain the pre-war border with the river as the boundary. Sun Chengzong guarded Liao for many years but only made great contributions to the Later Jin Dynasty, and wrote more than a dozen resignations a year. Later, he impeached him to too many empty salary and complaints.

The fact that Liu He was able to get a defeat was actually a fight with Jiannu.

And he had to fight, it was impossible to be like a rumor in later generations. The Liaodong defender didn't know that he was so arrogant and was greedy for merit.

Every time you encounter a job you want to find a job, these are basic operations.

More than 100,000 troops fled to Shanhaiguan in an instant, with more than 30,000 people missing at one point. Where did these people go?

Previously, the imperial court asked to check the number of soldiers, and Sun Chengzong went to a wheel-type inspection and went to a camp every day. Isn’t this just enough to collect the number of soldiers for the military?

To negotiate peace means to recognize the loss of Shenyang and to lose the legal requirement of these territories in the future.

Before Sun Chengzong took over, he lost his city and lost land from the Liaodong Great Wall to the front of Jinzhou City.

After he took over, he would not lose it. Yuan Chonghuan inherited Sun Chengzong's defense line and even fought a great victory in Ningyuan.

The condition for the Later Jin Dynasty was to maintain the front-war border with the river as the boundary.

Sun and Yuan Shouliao have been wandering around the land that the Later Jin Dynasty does not want for many years.

Not to mention Yuan Chonghuan, it was impossible to pacify Liao in five years. As a result, the capital was swept every year, and countless victories were won by more than 200 heads.

Yuan Chonghuan killed Nurhaci and spread rumors and said he was happy.

If you have some historical knowledge and know that after the war, Nurhaci jumped around for more than eight months, and during this period he personally led his troops to fight.

How could a person who was bombarded and seriously injured jump for so long?

Moreover, Wei Bao didn’t understand one thing. Since he felt that Shanhaiguan was not safe, would he be safe if he added Ningyuan?

Does Ningyuan have a half-cent relationship with Shanhaiguan?

If Ningyuan could block the Qing Dynasty, Shanhaiguan would be even more fine.
To be continued...
