Chapter 944 Invitation
Yue Zhongqi can be said to be in a good situation now, but from the outside, he is very happy and has a lot of troubles.
The Guangxi transformation was dazzled. After Zhao Hongcan's death, his youngest son ascended the throne. Under Peng Rong's control, he suddenly turned to the Ming Dynasty. Logically, this was a good thing, but the surrender of Zhao Hongcan's troops also brought great problems to Yue Zhongqi. In order to solve these problems, Yue Zhongqi had temporarily stopped attacking the Qing army in Yunnan for a while, and used the transformation to free up his hands to deal with the affairs of Guizhou.
Now is not the future generation. You should know that later generations are an era of information explosion. An event that occurs in a corner of the earth can spread all over the world in a very short time through the Internet. As for military aspects, it is even more powerful. The satellites and powerful computers in the sky can process countless pieces of information in an instant and pass them to the hands of decision makers and frontline commanders in different categories.
Now, let alone networks, satellites, computers, and other things, even telegrams have not been invented. The transmission of messages is still in the primary state, relying entirely on tools such as manpower, horsepower or carrier pigeons. Although Peng Rong launched in Guangxi and the Ming Dynasty had already prepared, in order to avoid accidents caused by news leakage, this information was only limited to the Jinyiwei and some secret departments. Until the overall situation in Guangxi was decided, the Jinyiwei sent the information to various places as soon as possible.
As the commander of the Ming Dynasty in the southwest, Yue Zhongqi received a prompt from the Jinyiwei in advance and made some preparations, but when the news came, she still had to face all aspects of consideration and hurriedly started to solve the military strength and integration of Zhao's troops in Guizhou.
The territory of Guizhou is not as good as the Central Plains, and it has always been inconvenient for transportation. In addition, the Zhao army has a large number of troops in Guizhou. In terms of total number, the forces of all parties can be the largest after the Qing army withdrew from Guizhou. Moreover, after the Qing army withdrew from Guizhou, various places were just controlled and occupied. However, due to local chieftains and head men, many places have not completely calmed down. Once the Ming Dynasty cannot completely control the situation at this time and uses the shortest time to digest the military power of the Zhao army in Guizhou, the trouble will be very big.
Overall, due to Guo Yong's transfer from Guizhou and Peng Rong's advance arrangement, the various units of the Zhao army in Guizhou did not have any obstacles to surrendering to the Ming Dynasty, but who can ensure that there is no accident? Once some troops have problems, it will be a big trouble. Moreover, Guizhou is not only the forces of the Ming Dynasty and the Zhao army, but also the forces of the local chieftain and the Gao Jin army, which still has heavy troops.
That's why Yue Zhongqi's burden is not light. Not only should she completely accept Guizhou's stable areas, but she also needs to continue to solve the problem of the Qing army in Yunnan. In addition, local forces and Gao Jin's troops are eyeing each other, which makes Yue Zhongqi feel like walking on thin ice.
But in front of the general, Yue Zhongqi seemed confident. Under his orders and arrangements, the Ming Dynasty's troops had begun to integrate and incorporate some Zhao troops. But this could not be completed in a short time. You should know that in terms of the number or the area occupied, it is impossible to complete all this for two or three months. Moreover, there is no accident. If there is a huge chaos in the local area and lead to unstable Guizhou, who can completely guarantee that there will be no abnormal movements in the Zhao army that has not been incorporated?
This is also the concern in Yue Zhongqi's heart. However, compared with local chieftains and heads, Yue Zhongqi is more worried about both internal and external aspects. For the outside world, that is, the Qing army that has retreated to Yunnan. Although the Qing army withdrew from Guizhou and has retreated to Yunnan, Bei Henuo still has tens of thousands of elite troops. Once these Qing army counterattack at this time, the Ming army in Guizhou must draw some of its troops to deal with it, and at the same time it will lengthen the digestion of various units of the Zhao army in Guizhou.
As for internal control, it is to occupy Gao Jin's troops in Guizhou. Although Gao Jin's troops have a strong force in Guizhou, they occupy much smaller territory, but Gao Jin's troops are still strong. Moreover, Gao Jin's troops are the rebel army of the White Lotus Sect, which is different from ordinary rebel army. In addition to the regular army, the White Lotus Sect can be said to be the whole people's troops to a certain extent. Once Gao Jin wants to fight the Ming army to the death and directly launch the entire sect to fight with the Ming army, even if Yue Zhongqi is not afraid, he will have an extremely headache.
What's more, the White Lotus Sect has always been good at bewitching people's hearts. The reason why the White Lotus Sect was able to sweep across Sichuan in a very short time and thus boost its momentum was entirely due to the pervasive means of the White Lotus Sect among the people and its huge foundation for the people.
You should know that the White Lotus Sect has not been tolerated by rulers in all dynasties, especially in the nearly three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court had never cut off the ban and siege of the White Lotus Sect. However, just like the invincible Xiaoqiang, the White Lotus Sect still survived. Therefore, the White Lotus Sect's lineage is really wildfire that cannot be burned, and the spring breeze is blown away again!
Once Gao Jin's troops cannot be completely solved and the White Lotus Sect in Guizhou is uprooted, it will definitely bring endless hidden dangers. In addition, the complex relationships of the chieftains and heads in Guizhou, these complex relationships make Yue Zhongqi secretly anxious.
But at this moment, Yue Zhongqi never expected that she suddenly received a letter, and the person who wrote the letter was Gao Jin.
He opened the letter in confusion, and Yue Zhongqi frowned after a few glances. The letter was not much, just a little, but only these few words made Yue Zhongqi read for a long time. After a long time, he pondered for more than an hour.
"Where is the sender?" Yue Zhongqi finally asked.
"If you say goodbye to the general, the person who sent the letter will be held by Bei Zhi," replied the officer who reported the matter.
"one person?"
"one person!"
After asking these two sentences, Yue Zhongqi closed her eyes slightly, and gently tapped her fingers on the chair ring, as if she was a little undecided. After a while, Yue Zhongqi seemed to have made up her mind and said, "You go and tell the person you come here, just say that this matter is very handsome. Time...it's set in five days."
"Master General..." The officer was stunned and opened his mouth to say something, but at this time Yue Zhongqi's sharp eyes swept over. The officer quickly swallowed what he had not said, lowered his head and responded, and then stepped back.
