Chapter 109 Weakness
"Master, it's moved."
Deng Zilong entered the central army tent, and walked and walked with a dragon and tiger. Although his face was not happy, his tone was extremely light.
From Nantou, Chen Mu was granted the seal of the Ming Dynasty's Nanyang minister, and the commander-general of the Myanmar Metropolitan Division, and led his army north in a scarlet official robe. It has been ten days since.
Sometimes a piece of paper can do many things, and Mengshao seems to understand this principle more than anyone else.
Before leaving Bai Gucheng, he assured Chen Mu that as long as there was a manifesto, he could pull out another 30,000 troops for the court in Myanmar, and Chen Mu asked him to go.
However, the Nanyang Army still remained unmoved. Chen Mu had no excuses. His deployment of troops did not need to be reported to others. He was not only waiting to see Mengshao's actions, but also waiting for someone.
Before this person arrives, he will not lead his army to leave Baigu City; when this person arrives, he will not leave Baigu for a period of time.
This person is called Tianshi Monk, with rich resume. He was an abandoned disciple of Shaolin in his early years. He used to be the instructor of the Qianhu Institute of Xiangshan. He participated in the training of the Nanyang Guards. He was the main compilation of the textbook of "Illustrated Bird Guns and Swords" in the Navy Hall.
The current research on the sixth grade of weapons department of the Navy Military Academy, the unchanging thing is that the Nanyang Guard supplies 20 kilograms of cooked beef per month. There is a small Zen temple in Nanyang Guard Port. When the Ming army defeated Spain, they moved in an old girl who was expelled from Shaolin in her early years, making the life of the wine and meat monk become more and more shameless.
Chen Mu sent a transfer order to come when he was treating the flag army in Yangon. However, because the military order itself is difficult and the road is long, the summer order can only be achieved when winter is approaching.
However, Chen Mu didn't blame him, the military orders were indeed a little more complicated.
"What earth-shaking behavior did Mengshao do?"
Chen Mu was closing the account book sent by the baggage officer, got up and tied up his belt under the waiter of his personal soldiers. He pointed to Deng Zilong at the account book and smiled: "Mang Yingli did a good job. If we were to conquer these property, we would probably have to scrape all the land of Bai Gucheng. Now, it will be within a few days of siege."
"If you have to say it, Myanmar's rice has been hit by war and has affected the farming season in recent years. But even so, the food and grass obtained are enough to reach Annan, and the Nanyang Military Office of Myanmar's South China Sea Government in recent years. Items, jade and other goods, when Haojing merchants and Portuguese merchants buy it here, they can also earn between 350,000 and 460,000 taels of silver."
He said, chuckling and waved his hand, "I don't count the troops of Shuai Shuai and Shuai Yu. Even if our Nanyang Army eats so much, their two armies consume as much food as five times that, which is unfair. If you want to pay their stakes, you can only take them back next year."
There is no monster like the Nanyang Military Palace in the world. The direct subordinates on the books can mobilize more than 70,000 troops, but only 5,600 people need to bear military pay. Although the remaining troops are not easy to be fully mobilized, even if they are transferred, they must prepare military food during wartime.
However, when all countries send troops, they will transport some food and grass. Although they are not as good as the military rations of the Nanyang Military Office, they are better than nothing.
It all depends on the face scanning, the face of the Ming Empire.
Moreover, this model cannot be copied, and it is not impossible to raise soldiers in other places. However, without advanced warships, there will be no deterrence of the great empire, and without deterrence of the royal family, the cohesion will be half reduced. Moreover, the land route is not as convenient as sea routes, which means that the impact circle is smaller.
The most important thing is that there is no new firearm, new tactics, and new military ideas, that is, even if all soldiers are eaten into pigs, it is difficult to increase the combat power so high.
"Mengshao called himself Awahou, and sent a letter to join forces with his brothers Beimuhou and Dongshuhou, to control the boundless banner of the Celestial Dynasty, and to rebel against Mangyingli. The three marquises met in the Bogushan area to block Mangyingli." Deng Zilong said, shook his head and said, "You can call your brothers to fight against each other. This marquis is loyal to the court, and the sun and the moon can be seen!"
"Haha! Maybe." Chen Mu snorted without a smile, a little sarcastic, shook his head and said, "I'm right, the reason why the situation in the country's overseas is bad is that it's bad. I think the overseas operations of the court are really bad, because they used to value righteousness and neglect profits, and later officials looked down on the chieftains who held their own tribute to the country, so they didn't even give them righteousness."
"Are you giving up real money and silver? Just ask them to write a few pieces of paper and seal a few local officials who don't even want their salary, and take care of their vassal states with all their hearts. Xuanwei Department, let's not say that we are a good father and treat children as their flesh to care for their growth. That is thankless to work."
"But be a good brother, if you have nothing to do, you will be able to communicate with your little brothers, and you will set up a few merchant stations and station a few soldiers. When you encounter something, you will take your little brothers to kick open the door of the villain's house and go out to cause trouble. We will eat the meat and give it to others. When others respect you, they will be willing to pay attention to us. In the final analysis, it is not our good intention, but we also want to take our good intentions."
"I still have to talk about profit, just like a spoon. It's because we saw that Yu Shuai Liu Shuai defeated Mang Yinglong in the north and Bai Gu in the south. He knew who could win, and he couldn't make the armor look for him to wear it to see me." Chen Mu waved his hand, "It's okay for him to think. As long as he can see clearly, know who can win, know who can follow, and what he thinks?"
Deng Zilong was about to speak, but Chen Mu raised his hand to stop and said, "I know, what should you do if this person has two hearts and rebels in the future."
Chen Mu made the decision, Deng Zilong nodded slowly, this is what he wanted to ask.
"Winning will have strengths. In the Warring States Period of Japan, the son will kill his father; in Myanmar, the younger brother will attack his elder brother; in the same way, the deepest friendship between father and son is unreliable at a critical moment. There are assassinations and poisons between people and military affairs; there are tricks and strategies; but countries are only stronger than weak."
"If you are always strong, the tribute country will always be loyal; if you are weak, the tribute country will be disinterested; if you are weak, the tribute country will be disinterested for a lifetime. If you are weak, the tribute country will be disinterested for a lifetime. If you are weak, you will be rebellious. If the Ming Dynasty declines one day, even the Shaanxi Huguang will rebel. Do you have to worry about the distance between Myanmar, Annan, and Southeast Asia? "
"As a state like the state, with tens of millions of household registration, countless wealth, endless resources, and vast empires, not afraid of any external troubles, the jumping people can only make it stronger." Chen Mu expressed his expression without any pride when he said this. He raised his hand and pointed to his chest and said, "There are signs when the country was destroyed in all dynasties. The signs are not that any battle in foreign wars have been lost. Losing a war is never a bad thing, but when the country is at a glance."
"A wise monarch fought for generations of revenge, and revenge for nine generations. At that time, the people would not live a comfortable life, but it was the eve of the rejuvenation. Ordinary lords, who slept on firewood and tasted gall for several years, knew that he had no ability to avenge shame in this life, and could also be magnanimous and accumulate national strength, so the people would live the most comfortable life. Even if there were wars and rebellions, it was also considered a peaceful year."
"A thousand eight hundred years ago, Han Fei's book destroyed the siege, and the forty-seven articles cannot be clearly stated. Those who lost the siege will say that they will die, and that they will die."
Chen Mu shook his head and smiled, and did not say what the stupid monarch would do. He just said: "When Chen was alive, he would not see the intestines of the people on trees and their bodies on the ground, and the country would not weaken; when we were sleeping forever, the empire would be extremely strong."
"What I, you, are not determined by the heaven and earth, nor by the lower ones, and by the people, and by the past sages, and by the past sages, and by the peace of the world."
"I took the Wantianhou from Brother Jingchen and thought so. In my life, I will only do one thing - so that we can have saints in the future, and future generations can have the opportunity to write down our unique skills!"
"A generation has what another generation needs to do. If you keep him like this, and teach him that it will be weak, then our clan should be weak."
