Now that the Japanese situation is so severe, what is your opinion, Lord Zhu, on the eradication of the Japanese?”Zhang Jing asked again.
When Zhu Pingan heard this, he paused for a moment, Zhang Jing’s question was a very complex and huge issue.
Since this year, the Jingnan Japanese invasion has entered the period of “big Japanese invasion”, the original small Japanese invasion has surged and flooded up, the number of people, attacking the city, has reached the point of shaking the rule of Jiangnan of the Great Ming Dynasty, and the harm is no less than that of the northern captives who have been invading the borders for many years, and the Japanese invasion has also reached the level of “war and chaos”.”The harm was no less than that of the northern captives who had invaded the border year after year.
Zhu Pingan came from modern times, and knew that this “big Japanese” chaos would last for ten years before being pacified.
Therefore, the “suppression of the Japanese” is a complex, large, systematic proposition, a few words can not understand, or even three to five days can not be said, but since Zhang Jing asked, it must be combined with the history of the answer to pick the key points.
After all, Zhang Jing is going to dominate the situation in Jiangnan for a period of time, his own answer is good or bad, directly related to his own in this period of time on the stage with or without the opportunity to appear as well as how the weight of the appearance, whether it is a passer-by or a corner.
“Back to the lord, the time, place and people are all in our dynasty, big increase in the annihilation, the suppression of Japanese will be able to win! As for the time needed to eliminate the Japanese, naturally the shorter the better, the faster to eliminate the Japanese, the better, but combined with the actual situation, nowadays the number of times, long time, large scale, large number of people, a wide range of territories, and my dynasty’s sea defences are in disarray, the coastal guards are empty and weak, I think that eliminating the Japanese is not a one day and one night can be done, and want to destroy the Japanese in one battle, it is really difficult to achieve, we need to be cautious, and slowly figure out the way to concentrate the troops, the water and the land, and the water and the land.deploy troops, land and water to attack ……”After pondering for a moment, Zhu Pingan arched his hand and replied to Zhang Jing.
Hearing Zhu Pingan’s reply, Zhang Jing looked at Zhu Pingan with burning eyes, “You are saying that it is difficult to quickly eradicate the Japanese in a short period of time, right?”
“Yes.”Zhu Pingan nodded, “My humble servant thinks that the eradication of the Japanese will be victorious, but it is difficult to eradicate them in a hurry, so they must be eradicated gradually.”
Zhang Jing looked at Zhu Ping An with a pair of burning eyes, his fingers gently knocked on the table, raising the volume of his voice, “The Japanese are in my Jiangnan, and most of my dynasty’s taxes are out of Jiangnan, if Jiangnan is unstable, then the Jiangshan is unstable, if Jiangnan is unstable, then my dynasty’s money bag will be deflated, so it’s imminent to exterminate the Japanese invaders! The Japanese are not righteous, our dynasty is righteous, and the time, place, people and harmony are all in our dynasty, so can’t we still eliminate the Japanese in a hurry?”
“I also hope that the Japanese can be eliminated quickly, but from the reality, it is difficult.”Zhu Pingan shook his head slightly and insisted.
Although he looked at Zhang Jing with an oppressive, questioning demeanour, Zhu Pingan, who came from modern times, was clear about Zhang Jing’s true thoughts.
Urgent suppression is the attitude of the Jiajing Emperor, is the attitude of the cabinet, but not the attitude of Zhang Jing, Zhang Jing people in Jiangnan, he than the Jiajing Emperor, the cabinet to understand the actual situation in Jiangnan, he knows the situation of the Japanese invaders, but also familiar with the situation of the Daming itself, he Zhang Jing do things old and stable, his attitude is gradual suppression, suppression of the Japanese in the case of a full grasp of the situation, and the history of the Zhang Jing is also doing so, Zhang Jing deployed the wolf soldiers of Guangxi, the deployment of the armyZhang Jing had to concentrate his superior force and make full preparations before he started to fight against the Japanese. ……
Seeing that Zhu Pingan insisted on his point of view, Zhang Jing’s eyes flashed a trace of appreciation that was difficult to capture.
These were questions that Zhang Jing had also asked Hu Zongxian when he had come to check the information on the Japanese and pay a visit.
Hu Zongxian’s answer at that time was: deploy troops, Jiangnan suffered a very Japanese scourge, but also to break the ordinary grid, the south of the deployment of troops from various provinces, for the aid of Jiangnan, focusing on superior force, vigorously eliminate, will greatly frustrate the Japanese, to end the foreign barbarians prying into the idea of the State of China, which is a once-and-for-all way also.
The two men’s plans for eliminating the Japanese overlapped but also differed, and Zhang Jing appreciated them both. While Zhu Pingan favoured a broader view, Hu Zongxian favoured specific strategies. Of course, Zhu Ping’an was more cautious and Hu Zongxian was more optimistic.
Zhang Jing had been the Minister of Military Affairs of Yingtian for some time, and he had a thorough understanding of the Japanese in Jiangnan.
This group of Japanese invaders is strong and fierce, the Japanese invaders are not unified, but there are countless branches, large tens of thousands, small hundreds, mostly thousands of people, the strongest of which is Wang Zhi, which can command most of the Japanese invaders, followed by Xu Hai, powerful, troops and horses are second only to Wang Zhi, and the rest of the more than ten large groups of Japanese invaders, such as Peng Laosheng. These Japanese invaders were scattered in the sea, sometimes gathered, sometimes scattered, and it was difficult to catch them all at once!
Several Japanese pirates gathered, a large number of people, fighting force tough, not good to fight; small shares of the Japanese pirates, and mobile and flexible, also not good to fight, such as the recent frantic crimes, arrogant to the extreme Shangyu landing of the Japanese pirates, only more than a hundred people, but the fighting force is very strong, but also flexible to the extreme, scurrying to commit crimes, difficult to find the trail, so all over the fretting ……
Therefore, these Japanese seem to be a crowd, but it is difficult to deal with the strong enemy!
As for the fighting strength of the Ming army in Jiangnan, Zhang Jing, as the Secretary of the Ministry of the Army in Yingtian, is more than clear, insufficient, very insufficient……
Such a situation, want to quickly eliminate the Japanese almost impossible, Zhang Jing’s attitude is also a gradual elimination.
If you want to eliminate the Japanese, rely solely on the Ming army in Jiangnan that can not be done, Jiangnan’s weak military guards, to put it mildly, almost unbearable, has lost the courage of the founding of the country. If you want to destroy the Japanese, must, as Hu Zongxian said, from other places on the deployment of troops, as for the deployment of the object, Zhang Jing has long had the ideal object in mind, and Hu Zongxian south of the troops of the different provinces, Zhang Jing, he is more inclined to transfer the Guangxi wolf soldiers.
That’s right, is the Guangxi wolf soldiers!
Zhang Jing he served as Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, well aware of the power of the Guangxi wolf soldiers. Jiajing sixteen years, guangxi broken vine gorges rebellion, guangxi yao attacked the city to kill officials, and then lead to Miao, Yao, Zhuang and many other ethnic minorities involved in the rebellion, momentum, jiajing emperor see the seriousness of the situation, make Zhang Jing as governor of the two sides of guangxi, Zhang Jing after taking office, after some hard fighting finally pacified the rebellion, in the process of pacifying the rebel, he found the Guangxi wolf soldiers of this terrible fighting species. Guangxi wolf soldiers have little culture, can’t read big words, but good courage, very tough, that year to Zhang Jing’s road to pacify the rebellion created a lot of trouble, to Zhang Jing has left a deep impression.
Whether the Japanese were tough or the Wolf Soldiers were tough, Zhang Jing thought it was the latter.
If the Guangxi Wolf Soldiers had as many people as the Japanese, Zhang Jing thought that he might still be on the road to pacify the rebellion in Guangxi.
There is a small story can be seen in the Guangxi wolf soldiers tough, Zhang Jing served as Governor of the two sides of Guangzhou to put down the rebellion, the whim of the grassroots want to visit the grass-roots level, to see whether the local service to the king, but worried about the road is not safe, from a Zhuang village hired a few Zhuang wolf soldiers to accompany the journey. On the road, there happened to be a deer jumped out, these wolf soldiers barefoot, on foot around the chase, as fast as flying, unarmed, caught the deer, cut the meat roasted and eaten; the road encountered an eagle circling in the sky, a wolf soldier hand up an arrow, it shot down and roasted and eaten. One night, living in a small shop, just came across a group of robbers, shop people have a face of fear, only a few Zhuang wolf soldiers in good order, the thieves do not dare to come forward, to escape.
In short, Zhang Jing has long planned to transfer the Guangxi wolf soldiers north to Jiangnan to participate in the suppression of the Japanese, but he did not have the power. Don’t look at him as the Secretary of the Ministry of War in Yingtian, but compared to the Secretary of the Ministry of War in the capital, this Secretary of the Ministry of War is water, of course, even if he has the power of the Secretary of the Ministry of War in the capital, he does not have the power to transfer troops. The Secretary of the Ministry of War seems to be the highest military command organ, but in fact, the Secretary of the Ministry of War can manage the promotion of military officials, but for the deployment of troops, but can not do, the Ministry of War simply do not have the power. In the Ming Dynasty, the transfer of troops is a very serious and sensitive things, need a lot of formalities, in fact, on the Cabinet decision, if you want to transfer the Guangxi wolf soldiers, you must get the Cabinet’s consent, the Cabinet agreed to not, the Secretary of the eunuchs must also agree to do, the Ministry of War is only a specific implementer.
