Chapter 2092: During the Gui Zi Juan battle, he struck back with his backhand.
Wang Wenyan felt that Feng Ziying valued and expected Yueshan Camp, and at the same time he was very dissatisfied with the current Yueshan Camp.
This is also reasonable.
How could an army composed of local rebels be transformed so easily?
Even if dozens of Feng family soldiers are recruited, the training time is still short and it is difficult to see results, especially since they have not experienced the baptism of real fierce battles.
This is far from the case today. As Feng Ziying said, it can only be considered a training and baptism when the enemy rushes to the city, fights with real swords and guns, fights several times, and wins after several waves of people are killed.
His Dong Weng is really the habit of Wu Xun's background. Although he is already a civilian identity, he has never been separated from the nature of the martial arts, and subconsciously will intervene in military affairs.
It is not impossible to set up a local guard like this, but another governor would never intervene personally.
Of course, it makes sense to do so. After all, the situation in Shaanxi is really bad now. In order to ensure one's own life, there seems to be no problem in forming an army dedicated to ensuring one's own life.
It's okay to do this now, but I'm afraid you need to think carefully about it in the future. After all, Feng Tang is now the first-class military general in the court. If Feng Ziying, as the governor of Shaanxi, still has a large army in his hands at any time, he will definitely It will attract the censors' comments.
In Wang Wenyan's view, Feng Ziying should focus more on the officialdom of the entire Shaanxi Province. The Chief Envoys' Department and the Prosecution and Envoys' Department, as well as the chief officials of each government, are the two major agencies that need to focus on and focus on. If these people are not the target of rectification, it will be difficult for Feng Ziying to open up a situation in Shaanxi.
Wang Wenyan also mentioned this idea to Feng Ziying, but Feng Ziying confirmed that it was not the most urgent thing to do.
Officials in Shaanxi's officialdom have already been divided into several factions. As the new governor, although he is nominally the official in charge of the overall situation of Shaanxi, he actually came alone. Both Lu Chuan and Sun Yijie are actually in Shaanxi. After years of hard work, they have a large group of officials who take orders from them.
For example, Lu Chuan was promoted from the Right Chief Envoy to the Left Chief Envoy, while Sun Yijie was promoted from the Zuo Shenzheng in the Chengxuan Administrative Envoy Division to the Provincial Inspector. When he was in the Chengxuan Administrative Envoy Division, Sun Yijie and At that time, Lu Chuan, who was still the right chief envoy, had a bad relationship. After they were both promoted, they were in charge of the chief envoys' department and the inspector's envoys' department respectively. They were even more tit-for-tat, causing the officials below to take sides.
Although theoretically the Zuobu Zhengshi is the highest chief executive of a province, in fact the Department of Prosecution and Prosecution is not subordinate to the Department of Prosecution and Prosecution. Its direct superior agency is the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and its responsibility is to monitor the entire province. Provincial administration and even personnel have supervisory responsibilities.
According to convention, there is a Dusi among the three divisions in a province, which serves as a local military institution. However, most of the Northland is adjacent to border towns, such as Shaanxi, Shanxi, Shandong (including Liaodong), and Beizhidu. Except for Henan, because of military The foreign affairs were emphasized while the internal affairs were neglected. In fact, the capitals in these provinces were emptied out by the border towns and reduced to institutions that prepared soldiers for the border towns.
It is admitted that the superior organization of the Chief Envoy Department is the Sixth Ministry, or the Cabinet, and Feng Ziying, as the additional title of Right Minister of the Ministry of War and Right Minister of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, although her reputation is not as good as that of the Chief Envoy or even the Procuratorate , but the meaning of the governor is to patrol hunting on behalf of the sky. With the status of imperial envoy, coupled with the status of minister of the Ministry of War and censor of Qiandu, this is also the confidence for him to command the entire Shaanxi military and political team.
Having this confidence does not mean that she can immediately fulfill her confidence. Without sufficient prestige and connections, it would be difficult for Feng Ziying to truly control the situation in the province.
For me, prestige and connections actually complement each other. Especially for a foreigner like me, the most convenient way to quickly establish prestige is to quell civil unrest, eliminate plague, and restore local peace.
In this process, various means and measures are indispensable, whether it is military suppression, invitation to buy people's hearts, appointment of officials and making wishes, or winning over the gentry, but the most important part of these means and measures is to There is an army that is like an arm to command. Without this army, everything is empty talk.
Wang Wenyan's ideas were too idealistic, and he underestimated the hostility of Lu Chuan and Sun Yijie towards him. Their fear, or hatred, of him now was even greater than the conflict between them before. Of course, if the two of them were to It is impossible to join forces to deal with them.
Having had grievances for a long time, how can it be so easy to make peace with them?
Besides, Feng Ziying will not allow the two of them to have the opportunity to work together. From the beginning, this bud must be nipped in the cradle.
It’s hard to say what the situation of the Zhou Dynasty will be in the future. There are Mongols and Jianzhou Jurchens outside the border wall, Fengzhou Bailian inside and outside the border wall, various White Lotus rebels in the interior, and the Southern Army in Jiangnan and Huguang, as well as Sichuan and Guizhou. There is no need to think about any troubles among the chieftain rebels that have not been quelled in three to five years. And these troops can be put to use, even more flexibly than the border troops.
The rebel army finally retreated, which made everyone in Wubao City breathe a sigh of relief.
As expected, the intensity of the fighting at the East City Gate was far less intense than that at the West City Gate. It looked more like a feint attack, but no one dared to ignore it.
Wubao City is small, and once it reaches the city wall, it basically means that the city has been breached and fallen, so Xia Zhiling is stationed there, while Feng You personally assists Minzhuang's soldiers and Gu Xiuzhong's guards there.
"Generally speaking, this is still a shabby rebel army. The only thing to worry about is that its number is too large and it is still growing. The ants will bite the elephant to death. If it continues to be consumed like this, if the morale does not drop and gradually adapts, We’re going to be in trouble.”
Feng You came here with Xia Zhiling. Although the battle seemed easy, he frowned deeply, "And if we raise such a big flag, if we kill it early, we may continue to attract more chaos around us." The army is coming."
This is the biggest problem, and Feng Ziying is also weighing it.
Liu Dingfeng and Wang Chenghu were sent to contact the people of Datu Falcon Village and Boluo Temple Village. However, the two villages remained aloof. They neither joined in the attack on Wubao nor agreed to form an alliance with Wang Chengwu's tribe. At that time, Wang Chengwu was the leader. Went in the name of.
If the predictions were correct, the people in Datu Falcon Village and Boluosi Village should have guessed that Wang Chengwubu had accepted the official recruitment, but they pretended not to know. Wangchengwubu had not decided to go directly to the city at that time. So it's also vague.
But the surrounding rebel forces are not limited to the soldiers of Datu Falcon Village and Boluosi Village. These are just the two most powerful groups. There are many groups of those people in Mizhi, Jiazhou, and even Qingjian. A small group of rebels, numbering one to two hundred to four to five hundred, may even be stimulated by the situation in Fort Wu. Those victims who were still rebelling and continued to suffer from the exodus of hunger immediately raised their flags of rebellion and turned into rebels.
If this siege situation continues and a stalemate is formed, the situation may evolve into a fragrant piece of honey that attracts countless ants and becomes uncontrollable.
But now we do not have the strength to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop. If we take risks in a hurry, we may be taken advantage of by the enemy.
This requires choosing a point where time and situation change, and at the same time, external forces must join in to make the situation turn suddenly and form a sweeping sweep.
"Over there with the Yulin Army..." Feng Ziying pondered, but Feng You quickly shook his head: "Don't count on that side. Mr. He is too mature and prudent. It may take ten days for the troops to come. I'm afraid we won't be able to survive that time." .”
"Uncle You, what do you mean..." Feng Ziying nodded slightly.
"Hold on for another two or three days to kill the morale of the rebellious army. Finally, we have to take a risk. Wang Chenghu's troops have to make a dangerous surprise attack, no matter whether it can be done or not, otherwise the situation will become more and more passive. In addition, there is the big rabbit falcon. The people from the Big Rabbit Falcon Village and the Boluosi Village." Feng You pondered and said, "Although I don't know the people from the Big Rabbit Falcon Village and the Boluosi Village, I heard about it when I was in Yulin. There is also a Yu'er River. The people in the village should be at odds with the people in Boyan Village and Baitang Village, but Yuerhe Village is too weak..."
Feng Ziying didn't understand Feng You's intention, but she didn't ask and just listened.
"My idea is that it would be best to mobilize the people from Datu Falcon Village and Boluosi Village to fight back..." Feng You looked at Feng Ziying, "This may involve using the names of the Governor and Ziying, Otherwise, it would be difficult for the people in Big Rabbit Falcon Village and Boluo Sizhai Village to sway me. In addition, I also considered contacting the people in Yuerhe Village. Even if it is just a contact, it can seduce the minds of the people in Big Rabbit Falcon Village and Boluo Sizhai Village. …”
Feng Ziying roughly understood Feng You's thoughts. Wang Chenghu's surprise attack was not important, it was just a diversion. The key was to lure the people from Big Rabbit Falcon Village and Boluosi Village to fight back. People have known each other, so for them to rebel, they must have enough interests, that is, the prestige, reputation and credibility of themselves and their father. In addition, the people from Yuerhe Village will serve as an introduction to touch Big Rabbit Falcon Village and The people of Polo Temple Village let them understand that without them, others would take action.
After thinking about it carefully, Feng Ziying asked again: "This should be very safe, so what is Uncle You worried about?"
"Ziying, once I go to meet the people in Big Rabbit Falcon Village and Boluo Temple Village, and reveal your identity, they will understand that you are in Wubao City. If you fail to convince them, they may change their attitude and join the attack. If you come from the Wubao City team, it will really be self-defeating unless you leave Wubao City." Feng You looked at Feng Ziying and said.
Feng Ziying shook her head slightly: "I won't leave. If I really leave, this city will collapse immediately. Uncle You, just go and speak clearly. I believe the people in Yulin Border Village will not be so short-sighted and stupid."
