Chapter 113: Bragging!


"Say, if what you say is clear and reasonable, I will keep this military equipment for you, otherwise," Chongzhen snorted coldly.

Following Chongzhen's words, the air in the palace suddenly condensed and continued to become tense and depressed.

Could this be the power of an emperor?

Chen Yue sighed in his heart.

"Back to Your Majesty, the reason why Wei Chen said that he relied on luck is not nonsense, nor is he being self-effacing.

It is really the case."

Chen Yue smiled and said.

Through current contacts and understanding of Chongzhen's past actions, Chen Yue basically understood Understand his temper.

Chongzhen had a strong desire to control and always wanted to control everything in his own hands.

He was also very harsh on his ministers and would punish them if they were not satisfied.

Therefore, in more than ten years, he had fifty bachelors and fourteen bachelors.

A move by the Minister of the Ministry of War.

Chongzhen had a strong self-esteem and liked to shirk responsibilities.

Whenever the war was unfavorable, he would shirk the responsibility on his ministers.

This is why Yuan Chonghuan was executed late and Chen Xinjia and Chen Xin were killed by mistake.

Chongzhen didn't know much about people.

As long as ministers could scratch his itch, he would be entrusted with important positions.

Of course, if ministers did not do well, Chongzhen would also blame the ministers.

What Chen Yue has to do now is to try his best to scratch Chongzhen's itch so that he can trust him, and then he can use it to develop his ambitions and quickly expand his strength.

"Your Majesty, I have only been in charge of inspection of Xishan for more than a month, and my subordinates only have 240 newly trained archers, all of whom were recruited from Xishan people.

How can such strength be compared with the elites of the Eight Banners of Manta and Tartar who have experienced many battles?

Compared with cavalry, this is why Wei Chen said that victory depends on luck. " After listening to Chen Yue's explanation, Chongzhen nodded.

As an emperor, he reviewed hundreds of memorials every day.

Memorials on war were the focus.

Most of the memorials on war ended with the defeat of the Ming army. , many frontline generals and ministers also described Manta as extremely fierce in order to shirk responsibility.

Chen Yue's men were just ordinary people who had just joined the army, and they were definitely not comparable to the Manchus.

"In that case, how did you win?"

Chongzhen's interest was suddenly aroused.

"Wei Chen sent Ye Bushou to investigate and discover that the Mantars had captured Fangshan City.

Although they only had these 200 new soldiers, they were not to be outdone.

I am the patrol inspector of the Ming Dynasty.

How could I watch the Mantars wreak havoc on the land of the Ming Dynasty?

No matter what the road is Fight with the Manchus to save the people from the fire and water."

Chen Yue's words were sonorous and powerful, and the image of a good patrolman for the country and the people appeared on the paper.

Chongzhen felt excited when he heard that, and his eyes suddenly softened when he looked at Chen Yue. stand up.

"Wei Chen came up with a plan and thought that he could use the narrow and rugged mountain roads to ambush Manta, so he set up a dragnet on a mountain road and personally went to Fangshan City to act as bait to lure Manta.

Wei Chen and his men killed a Manchu cavalry.

Not long after, a hundred Manta cavalry pursued him for revenge and chased his subordinates to the mountain pass.

However, they were so cunning that they saw through Wei Chen's ambush and turned around and retreated."

Through Chen Yue's mouth, an ups and downs of the feat of trapping and killing Manta was described.

Chongzhen listened with rapt attention, and even the eunuchs waiting on the side listened attentively with their ears pricked up.

"Alas" Chongzhen couldn't help but sigh when he heard that Manta had seen through the ambush and retreated.

"After I led my troops back to Xishan Town, I knew that the Mantars would definitely come to retaliate.

The lives and deaths of thousands of people in Xishan Town were in my hands, and I felt a huge pressure.

Should I retreat into the mountains or fight to the death with the Mantars?

Very conflicted inside.

With the strength in my hands, I will definitely not be able to defeat Manta, but if I have to escape, it will be freezing cold, and the snow has not yet melted in many places in the mountains.

Thousands of people fled into the mountains, and countless people will definitely die of cold and hunger. die.

In the end, Wei Chen decided that he would fight Man Ta, even if all his troops were exhausted, and even if Wei Chen died on the battlefield, he would still fight to the death with Man Ta, in order to protect the thousands of old and weak people in Xishan Town.

I am the patrol inspector of Xishan, and these thousands of people are my subjects."

Chen Yue told the story in a more embellished way, smearing makeup and powder on his face, describing himself as a loyal minister and righteous man who served the country and the people, and all his actions were for the country and the people.

Listening to Chen Yue's words, Chongzhen's eyes became softer.

"I spent my own money and food, and led all the people in Xishan to dig countless ditches overnight in order to restrict the Manta cavalry.

Within a few days, the Manta people really came.

The battle was extremely fierce.

The Manta archers below the city were so powerful that the brothers on the city could not show their heads at all.

Manta climbed the ladder and easily attacked the city wall.

A dozen white-armored soldiers wore three layers of armor, which could not be cut by swords or penetrated by spears.

Seeing that the city wall was about to fall, at the critical moment, Liu Neng carried a bag of quicklime and climbed over the city wall.

He threw a load of lime out and was immediately blinded.

It filled Tatar's eyes. " The ups and downs of the war came out of Chen Yue's mouth, and the brutal excitement and blood on the battlefield hit his face.

Hearing this, Chongzhen stared at Chen Yue's mouth without blinking.

Chongzhen reviewed countless memorials every day and knew a lot about the war.

However, the memorials he saw were all artistically processed battle reports by civil servants.

The descriptions of the war were very general, and they often used exaggerated words such as one shot could destroy dozens of miles.

Vocabulary, there is no direct stimulation as described by Chen Yue.

Chen Yue described the two battles in vivid language, focusing on the ferocity of the Manchus and the fearlessness of his own soldiers, and highlighted his wise leadership and calm command, which allowed the weak to defeat the strong and finally defeat the Manchus.

"It's not easy for your beloved to win."

After hearing this, Chongzhen said to Chen Yue.

This was the first time he said words that were considerate of his ministers.

The eunuch Wang Chengen who was waiting on the side took a deep look at Chen Yue and knew that from this moment on, Chen Yue was already in the emperor's heart.

"Aiqing was able to defeat the ferocious Mantar with 200 weak troops without fear of the powerful enemy.

This shows that Aiqing is very loyal.

However, those who hold heavy troops, face the Mantar, but just stay in seclusion and never dare to take the initiative to fight against the Mantar.

Let me, the people of the Ming Dynasty, cry under the Mantar butcher's knife.

We really deserve to be killed."

After listening to Chen Yue's story, and then thinking about those generals with tens of thousands of troops, Chongzhen's face darkened, and a thought suddenly came to his mind. .

"My dear, if I give you tens of thousands of troops, can it be possible to defeat Manta and save all the people?"

Chongzhen looked at Chen Yue eagerly.

Ah, Chen Yue was stunned for a moment.

Looking at the situation, he had to lead his own troops to fight the main Manta army.

Isn't this a cheat?

Give me tens of thousands of troops.

Where's the army?

It's nothing more than the garrison in the capital camp and the cities near the capital.

But these The army has long been afraid of the enemy, so how dare it fight against the Manchus?

It's really a boast, and it's a trap for yourself
