450 Guards of the Beginners

450 The first person walking in the road

After Yang Ling returned to the capital, he was worried that the news of the two princesses' marriage would cause a shocking response in the capital, but unexpectedly, it seemed like a small stone was thrown into the sea, and it did not cause any trouble at all.

No one cares anymore. Even if he married all the emperor's girls, one is willing to beat and the other is willing to be beaten, no one is willing to get involved.

The military and political leaders of various prefectures across the country have changed their defenses. Every official in the border area has to leave his jurisdiction within a specified period of time and take office in a new place. Without the place where he has worked hard for many years and the dependent forces in the mixed areas, no one can hold his own troops.

They obey the orders of the court and can still govern the local area, but it depends on the majesty and power of the court. Even if they are willing to cultivate new trustees and personal power, it is a protracted event. The court can naturally deploy calmly for a long time and further improve the control of the center.

This kind of thing has been happening in ancient times, but such a large-scale mobilization is unprecedented. This was from Yang Ling's instructor, and Yang Ling was a great man who learned from later generations. However, such actions that he did not dare to take were in line with Zhengde's character.

Another emperor may be very concerned and scrupulous, but Emperor Zhengde has always been unscrupulous in his work and is imaginative, and he will implement it without considering it in detail.

At the same time, the Beijing area even caught all the officials who had close ties with King Ning. Except for a few judges who had clearly defined affiliation with King Ning, most of the officials who had only had close personal relationships or accepted bribes were not imprisoned or beheaded.

This was the result of Yang Ling's efforts to dissuade him. Otherwise, it would be difficult to guarantee that Zhu Houzhao would not follow his ancestors and mobilize the three factories and one guard to carry out a bloody purge. The vassals have always been rebellious and colluded with internal and external forces. Once they fail, this is the inevitable result.

Yang Ling did not appreciate Zhu Yuanzhang's cruel means of attacking political enemies. On the contrary, he admired the gentleman politics of the Song Dynasty. No one believed it when he said it. Yang Beitou, who would go wherever he went, was actually a man who opposed the political struggle and would end with death. Who could believe that he had to kill him?

However, he could not make any greater efforts. Rebellion has always been a taboo for the emperor, and the rebellion of the royal family is even more taboo. This list was discovered in front of the emperor, so Yang Ling could only reason and try his best to persuade the emperor to use less weapons.

Speaking of which, some ministers are more unfair. Cheng Yi has become a trend in the officialdom. Some people may not think of King Ning’s rebellion. But becoming a trend does not mean that it has been implemented in the official document system.

Many people are receiving gifts, but not all the gifts givers are just for rebellion. If you have a rebellion leader, you have to admit that you are unlucky. No matter what happens, you have to take care of yourself. No matter what happens, you have to take care of yourself. No matter what happens, you have to do it. If anyone becomes an emperor, the land under his command can be used by people. You have to put a person who has already had grudges under his nose?

Political struggles can be free from bleeding, but they are never warm!

However, not many people were pushed into the court, but many were pulled down. Officials were promoted, demoted, and large-scale mobilization attracted all the attention of the government and the public. Who cares about who the emperor’s sister married?

In this way, the speech prepared by Yang Ling and Emperor Zhengde, and the speech prepared by Zhang Tianshi who received instructions in advance, were wasted. Except for the empress dowager, there was no other voices of dissatisfaction. The court and the country had no other voices of opposition.

The marriage between Yang Ling and the two princesses was settled so smoothly. The royal family also had to calculate auspicious days when the royal family married the princess. The royal family had to make careful preparations. Princess Xiang'er is the daughter of the King of Shu, and the King of Shu would have to go to the capital to congratulate him. There were all kinds of preparations, even at the fastest speed, it would not be possible to make a fortune without half a year. Moreover, the royal family had no need to get married in a hurry, so the wedding date had not yet been decided.

Yang Ling was worried about the situation outside the pass. He waited hard in Beijing for more than half a month. After the situation in Beijing had completely stabilized, he volunteered to inspect Liaodong.

In history, the Ming Dynasty was destroyed by the barbarism from the north. At the critical moment when it turned into a cocoon and spread its wings and wanted to dance, its power was the most fragile, turbulent and most hopeful to move towards the next civilization, and was replaced by a more backward and ignorant force.

Yang Ling knew very well about this history, so he attached the most importance to the outside of the pass. If it was not solved for a day, it was always his heart problem. What's more, there are Hong Niangzi here, Cheng Qiyun and Adni. Who have lovers related to his voice?

After working hard for a long time, Yang Ling finally got the permission of Emperor Zhengde and packed his luggage and rushed to the outside of the pass. Now, he has passed the jurisdiction of the Liaodong Dusi and is about to arrive at Wuzhewei in the Nuergandusi.

The car is rumbling, the horse is rustling, the rising sun is like fire, and the artemisia is high...

It should have been a place in Harbin, but now it is still a wasteland under the jurisdiction of the Jurchens in Haixi. Yangling Jidi lived here for a few years when he was a child. He was very excited and excited to visit the old place again. If it was an old place hundreds of years ago, things were neither humans nor humans. The feeling of a thousand years of storm and a hundred lives was even more full of sadness.

"Thinking about the eternity of the world, I am sad and crying." Yang Ling was very moved. He sighed softly, and he had a lot of thoughts. He had not recited a poem for a long time. He had to wave his sleeves and fell on the brocade couch and continued to sleep.

"Your Majesty, the Wuzhewei has arrived in front of you, and the Wuzhewei commander led people to welcome you."

“…”.

"Qi Bian Gong..."

"Yeah, where are you?" Yang Ling lifted the curtains and poked his head out. His hair was scattered, his robe was open, his eyes were hazy, and he was sleeping soundly.

"The princess returned to China has arrived at Wuzhewei. The commander of Wuzhewei, Lord Lian Yunshulian, led a team to welcome him."

"Well, the car stop!" Yang Ling's head shrank back.

After a while, Yang Ling lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and crawled out of the car. He robeed and jade belt, dressed neatly and his hair was cleanly combed. He stood at the front of the car.

The sight of the eyes was a team of neatly shaped cavalry formations. The shining swords and guns, the simple and dilapidated battle robe, and the faded flags fluttered high, but there was a majestic aura as strong as the mountain. The ceremonial guards of only two thousand people were like thousands of troops, full of murderous aura.

The commander of Wuzhewei, Lian Yunshu, led more than ten cavalry generals to welcome him. Most of these generals were in their thirties and strong military commanders. Lian Commander was quite young. As the chief general of a major city, he was less than 40 years old.

He was wearing light armor and a sword under his ribs. His face was angular in Chinese. His dark face outlined a tough and tough line. The generals who were welcomed by ranks behind him were also powerful and imposing.

Commander Lian hurriedly stepped forward and got off the horse when he saw Yang Ling, and went up to pay homage. He pushed the golden mountain and turned over the jade pillar. He bowed down a lot. There was no need to perform this great gift in the military formation, but they have heard of Yang Ling's reputation for a long time.

He determines wealth and honor, determines life and death, and has a high position. He was also given two princesses in the dynasty as wives by the emperor. Such an honor and status is unprecedented and no one comes later. Such a person is said to be his Practice Dushu, and he is the chief governor of the Nuergandusi. How dare he disrespect as a god?

Yang Ling quickly got out of the car and helped Zheng instructors, chatted with each other, and then walked around the city of Wudu Guard. The knights on both sides stood solemnly on the short and strong Mongolian horses. Although their clothes and swords and guns were not as bright as those of the Beijing camp, and their saddles were neat, they burst out with endless majesty and harshness.

Wuzhe City is not big, with a radius of no more than twenty miles, with four gates, and the main street is a cross street. There are not too many ordinary alleys and paths with complex cities, so that it is much more convenient to quickly assemble troops, go on a battle and defend the city.

The military camps in the city were neatly arranged, but most of them were rammed earth and plywood building mud-blank houses, with thick firewood seeped with yellow mud on the roof. It was not until the center of the military camp that I saw five or six brick and stone houses. The city was also very simple, and its height and strength were probably only to prevent the invasion of wild animals.

In fact, they didn't need to be too strong and tall city, surrounded by the savage Jurchens and the Haixi Jurchen ranch. These semi-primitive tribes had no courage to invade the Celestial Army, and even ordinary Han people, they did not dare to offend them.

Going eastward is Fuyu, Duoyan and Taining, who rely on the Daxinganling Mountains to become the barrier of the Ming army guards. Unless the three guards are captured, Boyan's men will not be able to penetrate deep into the hinterland to pose a threat to the Ming army.

The group entered the largest and most spacious house, practiced commanders and rubbed their hands, and said in embarrassment: "Duke. This is the best house in Wuzhewei, it is really simple. It is aggrieved that the Duke of the Kingdom lives in such a place, and the officials are really frightened."

Yang Ling noticed that the house should have just been painted. Although the layout in the house is relatively simple, it is very neat and uneasy. Even the cracks in the bricks on the blue brick floor were clean without a trace of dust. It was really hard to send many soldiers to clean the room for this commander.

Yang Ling laughed and said, "It's okay, the soldiers guarded the border for many years and have worked hard and made great contributions. If you can live in such a place, can't I live? I'm not here to travel around the country. Haha, don't be restrained. Come on, please sit down."

Yang Ling walked to the top, sat down calmly, pressed his hands down one after another, and said, "Sit down, it's hard to talk about."

The generals then sat down one by one, and some soldiers rushed the tea and brought it to them. Yang Ling looked around and smiled and said, "We just met the generals, and we don't know each other very well. But it doesn't matter. My country's Duke must stay in Nuer for a while, so we can slowly get to know each other. I, Yang Ling, are easy to talk to."

"Yes, yes," Commander Lian smiled and said, "In the bitter and cold place outside the border, I have never been to such a noble lord as a prince. The lower officials went to the mountains to hunt some rare things, and bought some things from the Jurchen tribe, and later welcomed the prince to the prince later."

"Don't be polite, Lord Lian. Today I am very happy to meet all the brave and warlike generals. I will have to have a few drinks with you later. Well, it's still early now. Lord Lian will introduce the situation here to me first."

Commander Li respectfully said: "Yes, the subordinates obey the order."

He licked his mouth, relieved his nervousness, and began to tell the situation here. Yangling, the three eastern provinces, was originally very familiar, but at present, this place is not the three eastern provinces. It is basically a wasteland, and the power composition is even more complicated and it is a bit difficult to talk about.

The initial command practice was stuttering, and it slowly became smoother.

The Ming Dynasty established the Dinuergandusi, which included some areas of the current Outer Mongolia, Inner Mongolia, the Soviet Union, and the three eastern provinces. However, due to the vast land and sparse population, many places do not have enough troops to station and do not have enough population to explore and reclaim land. At present, there are still rare places with primeval forests and grasslands.

The Ming army garrison stations were mainly set up based on several major rivers, mainly in Heilongjiang, Asu River (now Ussuri River), Songhua River, Naowen River (now Nenjiang River), Ussuri River Basin, and the large and small garrison stations. The Nuergandusi Yamen is located in the Trin area opposite the mouth of the Gunhe River. The main officials of the Dusi are hereditary, which is different from the officials in the Guanzhong River.

Their jurisdiction ranges from the Onon River (now the Onon River). They reach the outer Xing'an Mountains in the north, the seas in the east, and the Tumen River in the south. The Yuehai in the northeast also has garrisons on Sakhalin Island. There are many ethnic groups such as Mongolia, Jurchens, Jirimi, Kuyi, Daur, etc., and most of them make a living by fishing and hunting.

What's special about this is that the Duoyan Sanwei and Jurchens in the territory have their own independent territories and leadership organizations. They are like countries among the country. Moreover, because the land is vast and sparsely populated, there is no use in the dispatch of troops in the areas bordering the Tatars, and there is no sufficient force. Therefore, there is no dispatch of troops in that area, and it has become a three-in-one area.

Therefore, after Hongniang occupied a large area of ​​territory around the Onon River, it expanded eastward to Hulun Lake and Beier Lake, until the sea of ​​fishing, and the Ming army did not move, which did not arouse Boyan's suspicion. Because there were actually no military guards in this land.

Yang Ling has been informed of Cheng Qiyun. Yang Ling can probably learn from her more detailed situations about the current Tatars, Oirat, Duoyan Sanwei and Hongniangzi. The generals of these border guards are probably not worthy of the current situation.

So after listening to the statement of Commander Lian, he took the initiative to take the conversation and said, "Well, my country's Duke is here to visit the soldiers guarding the border, and to the hereditary commanders and commanders of the Commander of the Ganghe Xuanfu Division. However, given that the Queen of Duoyan's Three Guards, Yinqi, is about to openly recruit a son-in-law like Kai Nadamu..."

Speaking of this, Yang Ling remembered that he had met Yin Qi on Baideng Mountain. The witty little girl couldn't help but smile and continued: "Queen Yin Qi's actions have attracted the attention of all parties. Whether the three guards of Duoyan and the three guards can break the current balanced situation in the grassland.

Boyan, Huosie, Yibula, Hongniangzi, and Agudamu and Baiyin, it can be said that everyone is paying attention to this matter. So I will stay here. If necessary, I will quietly approach the residence of Duoyan's three guards and watch it nearby. Keep abreast of further developments so as not to lag behind in the court news and fall into a passive position."

Speaking of this, the deputy commander Qiu Haotian also showed a nervous look and said, "What the Duke of the Kingdom is saying is that the three guards of Duoyan are now in a storm, especially Boyan, who has been scattered across the grasslands since he was seven years old, conquering the world, suppressing the Wala, which had originally had an absolute advantage in its power, and retreated to the northwest corner, and never turned around.

Huadang took advantage of his troops to punish the rebellion and sent troops to capture all his territory. However, he was as help from God and regained his own grassland with a lonely army. This man was as cunning as a fox and as fierce as a tiger. Many grassland herders said that the Golden Family of Changsheng was fortunate, and Boyan Meng was the master of the grassland, and there were many magical legends about him."

Yang Ling smiled faintly and said, "All the heroes who are powerful, there are always people who are intentional or unintentional to weave various legends for him to prove how extraordinary he is?"

He glanced at him and smiled, "I am the Duke of the country used 800 guards to wipe out three thousand Japanese pirates in front of the Qiantang River Tide. Some people have far-fetchedly said that his Duke had used the water power of the East China Sea Dragon Palace from Zhang Tianshi to annihilate the enemy. In the Pingdu Barbarians of Bashu, the defeated Didu Barbarians still firmly believe that their Duke was the reincarnation of Zhuge Kongming, and also used his magical powers to make their frog god abandon them. Hahaha, these things are told to some foolish men and women, and they are vivid and vivid. All generals are heroes who are on the battlefield with their martial arts. Do you believe such nonsense?"

Lian Commander, Qiu Haotian and others laughed. At this time, a soldier came in and whispered a few words to Lian Commander. Lian Commander rubbed him and said to Yang Ling: "Mr., the banquet is ready. Do you think...?"

"Okay! Let's have a few drinks together. All the generals are a little restrained now. Let's drink happily at the banquet and speak freely!"

There is no excellent chef in this wardrobe. However, the food cooked from the big pot and bowl is very delicious, making people feel very happy. The fat and tender yellow lamb, delicious sand and half chicken, fragrant black bear's paw, crispy and fragrant squid nose, flying dragon hang soup, scallion oil deer tendons, hash ants oil to cook subway into mushroom circles, and fresh veal and bracken, all of which are naturally wild game.

It is not so easy to eat these things in the pass. The wealthy families have such financial resources, but they cannot be so fresh when eating bear paws and barbs.

Yang Ling is easy-going, calm and approachable, and does not show off at all at the banquet. Even when talking to these generals, he is very excited when talking to women. The sense of detention of the generals gradually faded, and he also became more kind to Yang Ling in addition to respecting him.

Yangling inspected the guards outside the pass because the internal political situation of the pass had just been reshuffled. It was necessary to send an important official to patrol the northern border on behalf of the emperor to appease all the princes who were in charge of Nuergan. In addition, the construction of the station communication agency from Nuergan to the capital thousands of miles away was more effective, and to strengthen the information contact between inside and outside the pass.

Of course, these things need to be done and are also reasons for public announcement. The biggest purpose is to determine how Deputy Khan of Dayuanwei and the King of Northern Ying should take action in the future. This secret reason does not need to be bluntly stated to these military and guard generals.

After the banquet, it was almost dusk. Yang Ling hadn't had such a good drink for a long time. He had to wait for news about Cheng Qiyun in the ward for the past two days. In addition, he was really exhausted. After this banquet, he raised his glasses with the powerful generals with great alcohol. He was drunk and excited, and he took a bath in the crude wooden barrel that exuded the original fragrance of pine wood. It was so comfortable.

The evening breeze blows, and the grass makes green waves. Yang Ling wears a light robe, her handsome face is slightly red, and her feet are spreading on the city walls. The moat trenches outside the city are covered with dense aquatic plants, which grow almost as flat as the ground. The trenches are narrow and shallow, and the city is really not tall. It is only about two feet, but there is really no building far away, so you can still see the sky far away. There is still a green wave that runs far away.

This undeveloped land contains rich minerals, and the ground is a large fertile soil and forests, which is crucial to the future Ming Dynasty. Now, there are only some soldiers and horses stationed here. It only means that it is a symbolic meaning of a country, and no one realizes how rich treasure it contains.

The court did not realize the importance of this so-called barren land besides politics and military. Every year, offering a few horses, a few sea holly, and a few thousand-year-old ginseng to the court is the obligations and taxes paid by the subjects on this land.

At present, Boyan's crisis needs to be resolved. However, Boyan has solved the problem that there are fire sieve, Yibula, Duoyan's three guards, and... It is still like a pile of loose sand, and no force has taken them seriously...

That may be a few years later, decades or hundreds of years later. If this confrontation cannot be fundamentally resolved and the development of such alien forces cannot be curbed, then who can guarantee that the second Boyan, or even the second Temujin, will not appear... Nurhaci, where it should have appeared?

"Nation is just a group of different groups in history, such as culture, customs, beliefs, concepts, etc., formed by regional settlements. The sea will not be complacent about how many rivers it forms. If these rivers are always clearly distinguished and maintain their own characteristics, they will not become the sea. Many ethnic groups are still consciously divided and maintain this difference. That is to give up the future in order to remember the past and give up the future. The final world should be fusion.

Powering one with force, using profit, transforming one with literature, and integrating one with family. Only in this way can we completely eliminate hidden dangers. Powering one with force and using profit, we are currently doing it. In the next step, we focus on economic development within the pass, and we must focus on Liaodong in military terms. Strengthening mutual trading and trade can subtly strengthen the connection between various ethnic groups.

Yang Shen was writing it. He was collecting many classical cultures and contacting a group of literati, hoping to spread the Central Plains culture and ideas among these nomadic tribes in various forms such as books, dramas, songs, etc.

Integrating the tribe is also a long-term solution. When the connection with the same interests is strengthened and the understanding is deepened with culture, then the integration of mixed living and alien marriages can be accepted from people's concepts. The hundreds of thousands of Han people who immigrated to the Northeast will gradually integrate with the people of various ethnic groups in the local area until they are in one."

However, to achieve these things and not let them give up halfway, a stable environment is needed, so it is necessary to eliminate the ambitions such as Boyan, Huo Silk, and Yibula, weaken the separation power of these tribes, and enhance their sense of belonging and identity. Otherwise, once the court is weak, the different intentions of all races will arise and continue, and wars will be endless.

"The heroes of one nation often become demons of another nation. If you have to pay the price of blood to get eternity of peace, then let me, Yang Ling, act as the role of this demon."

Yang beheaded after drinking, and looked at the evening breeze, and bowed his head low and made a bold statement.

He sniffed out a sip of wine and, accompanied by several personal guards, walked towards the camp in a drunken manner. At this moment, on the horizon, hundreds of brave knights were guarding a luxurious carriage with the formula of the Mongolian king, and were rushing towards the Wuzhewei.
