The Ming Dynasty's Spokesperson

Chapter 598 You are the eighth!

After all, it was "East Li and West Ma", Lin Tailai could certainly see that Ma Gui wanted to express his intention in front of Li Rusong.

The best way to express it, of course, was to break Ningxia before Li Rusong arrived.

People have a comparison mentality. We are all generals, with more seniority and age than you, Li Rusong. Why are you, Li Rusong, the general commander of Shaanxi's anti-rebellion military affairs?

You can see from the name that Li Rusong's general is a little bigger than other generals.

The general commander of all anti-rebellion military affairs, the general among the generals.

In fact, it's not just Li Rusong's problem. Ma Gui was appointed this time, but he was only named a deputy general, and he must be dissatisfied in his heart.

For a person who has been a general for more than 20 years, the deputy general is obviously not enough, and he must try his best to make merit and be promoted back.

Facing Ma Gui's request for battle, Lin Tailai thought about it carefully.

From a military perspective, now that reinforcements from Yansui and Datong have arrived, and the government troops are gathering more and more, it would be embarrassing if they still don't dare to attack the city.

They have to fight anyway to consume and deter the rebels.

From a political perspective, if he, the military supervisor, has been waiting outside the city with tens of thousands of troops, he will definitely be impeached by a bunch of censors for being afraid of the enemy and wasting food and money.

Don't underestimate the determination of the Qingliu party members and censors to make trouble in the rear and control you, and don't overestimate the temper and IQ of Emperor Wanli.

After thinking about it in his mind, Lin Jianjun began to say to Ma Gui in a deep voice: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend, in fact, we are our own people."

Ma Gui: "?"

What does this mean? Let people guess riddles again?

Do we have a common enemy? It can't be Li Rusong, right?

Lin Tailai continued, "Last year, the emperor sent court officials to inspect the nine frontiers separately. For example, I went to Xuanfu.

I remember that the person who went to Ningxia to inspect and impeached you was Zeng Qianheng?"

Ma Gui replied, "It was this person."

It's also infuriating to say that when the imperial envoy came last year, he impeached me, the general of Ningxia Town.

If you have the ability, you can learn from the imperial envoy who went to Xuanfu Town and directly abolish the governor!

Lin Tailai said very bluntly: "Zeng Qianheng is a member of the Qingliu Party and a political enemy of mine. Do you understand now?"

Seeing that the military supervisor was getting closer to him, Ma Gui also said tactfully: "Understand! Understand! One of us!"

Only a fool would talk back to the military supervisor at this time. It seems that the military supervisor is about to agree to his attack on the city.

"But!" Lin Tailai turned around, "When we were in the capital, Governor Li and I got along like brothers of different surnames!

I also treat you as my own. We don't talk in secret among ourselves, and we are straightforward and don't hide anything.

I just want to ask, if I indulge you to grab the credit, how can I be worthy of Brother Li?"

Ma Gui was a little anxious, and said quickly: "Nearly 40,000 troops gathered outside the city. If we still don't take action, we will definitely be laughed at by the rebels!

This will in disguise boost the morale of the rebels and wear down the fighting spirit of the government troops, so we should attack the city now!"

Lin Tailai sighed, "What you said makes sense. This military supervisor still has to put the overall situation first.

I can't give up the overall situation for the sake of personal relationship and prevent you from making the first contribution."

Ma Gui was afraid that Lin Jianjun would regret it, so he said the words of thanks first: "Thank you for your indulgence!"

The favorability of Lin Jianjun increased by 40!

Lin Tailai said helplessly: "Forget it! This time, in order to give you a chance, I really can't take care of the brotherhood for the time being!

As for the governor, I can help you to ask, you don't have to worry about it. But."

Ma Gui was afraid of hearing buts now, but he could only be patient and continue to listen.

Lin Tailai said again: "But, Lao Dong is the current commander-in-chief of Ningxia Town and the nominal commander.

If you want to command the siege, don't you have to talk to Lao Dong first?"

Ma Gui patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, military supervisor! My father and I were generals in Datong, and we are all family!

I told him, he said that as long as the military supervisor agreed to the siege, he would agree to give me power!"

Lin Tailai originally wanted to sell good things to Ma Gui on Dong Yikui's side, but he didn't expect Dong Yikui to give in.

What else can Lin Jianjun say, he can only say that Dong Yikui is really an honest man.

No wonder a general who was a good general was like an elevator. He was impeached and rose and fell repeatedly, and was finally sent to a remote place by Wang Chonggu to serve as a deputy general.

Of course, there are objective reasons. Ma Gui served as the general of Ningxia Town for more than ten years and was dismissed last year. His prestige among the Ningxia soldiers is much higher than Dong Yikui.

Moreover, Ma Gui was born in Datong Town and served as the general of Datong for more than ten years. The reinforcements of Datong Town also obeyed Ma Gui.

So Dong Yikui also understood that his overall influence as an outsider was definitely not as good as Ma Gui, and his prestige was not established in too short a time.

If he refused to give up the command power, his command would fail in the end, and the official army would still listen to Ma Gui, which would be really funny.

After receiving authorization from Lin Jianjun, Ma Gui left excitedly and began to formulate a siege plan.

However, taking the opportunity of patrolling the camp, Lin Tailai still went to see Dong Yikui and comforted him.

After all, Dong Yikui's brother Dong Yiyuan is the general commander of Yansui Town. Two general commanders from one family will be useful in Korea later, so it is worth continuing to win them over.

After leaving Dong Yikui's camp, Lin Tailai said to the head of the public bodyguards, no, to the lieutenant general of the standard camp, Da Yun: "Take two bottles of wine and go to the West Camp to visit Li Xu!"

Lieutenant General Da was stunned and said: "General, you are going to drink in the army again!"

Lin Tailai replied: "Just a few drinks, as long as you don't drink too much, it won't be a problem."

Besides, doing some illegal and forbidden things together is also a way to enhance friendship.

General Da Shen asked again in surprise: "Why did the army suddenly think of having a drink with General Li?"

Lin Tailai sighed: "It is difficult to be a supervisor of the army, but it is even more difficult to be a supervisor of the army doing the governor's errands."

Not only must they organize the battle, but they must also be responsible for psychological massage and motivating the generals! "

Guyuan Town's Deputy Chief of Staff and Photographer, Chief of the Military, Li Yan, was sitting in the camp, looking at the siege instructions sent by Ma Gui, feeling depressed.

"Stop looking now, let's have a drink!" Supervisor Lin walked into the tent and put the bottle on the table.

Then he called to Dayun and said, "You also come together and pour wine for Mr. Li!"

After finishing half a bottle of wine, Li Yan said unhappily: "The rebels were so powerful earlier that they rolled into the Forty-Seven Forts in the west of the river, and their troops were approaching the east of the river!

The towns were unable to rescue, so I rushed to Lingzhou urgently and defeated the rebels outside Lingzhou."

Hearing this, Lin Tailai put down his wine glass and frowned, "Huh?"

Li Yu reorganized his words and said: "Under your planning and command as the supervisor, I bravely led the charge in Lingzhou, defeated the enemy, saved Hedong and counterattacked to Hexi!

Then, under your personal command and leadership as the supervisor, we drove for more than a hundred miles and were defeated in Yuquan by our own soldiers!

Then under your command, the supervisor, I led the army to regain the Forty-seventh Fort in Hexi, forcing Kuaibai to be trapped in Ningxia City! "

General Da Shen felt that he had been ignored, so he used the strength of his wine to say, "There is also me! I also climbed up first in every battle, risking arrows and stones myself, and was injured in several places!"

Li Yan ignored Dayun and only said to Supervisor Lin: "What's the result? The imperial court sent Dong Yikui, Ma Gui, and Li Rusong behind them!

It was obviously me who took the lead in counterattacking the rebels, it was obviously me who forced the rebels back to Ningxia City, and it was obviously me who regained the lost land in Hexi. Of course, it was all under your command, Supervisor.

But why did the court send them here? Why are they the protagonists now?

I don't accept it. Why doesn't the imperial court use me as the general to attack Ningxia City? Why did the court let them pick the final fruits of victory?

In the future, when the world talks about pacifying the Kuaibai rebellion, they will only see that it was them who finally attacked Ningxia City and either captured or beheaded Kuaibai! And I was just one of the soldiers who participated in the siege! "

Li Yan had been holding back too much resentment for the past half month, and it suddenly burst out.

Lin Tailai sighed, poured a glass of wine for Li Yan himself, and then replied:

"You should also understand this truth. They are all from a family of generals. Their fathers are at least generals, and their brothers are also generals.

And you? Your father seems to be just an ordinary military attache, right?

Moreover, they have been in business for two or three generations for decades, and there are always people in the court who can help them speak up, and there will be people who recommend them when encountering problems.

And you? Even if you are the hero of the counterattack, who in the DPRK will speak for you? "

General Da Shen said with some sympathy: "General Li is the one who leads the army, and the military is watching. Please help General Li speak."

Lin Tailai seemed helpless and said to Li Yan: "I am far away in the northwest, and I often feel that I am beyond my reach.

Even if it has a great influence on the court, it can only have one effect.

If you look at the general, in terms of merit, it is not an exaggeration to be promoted from a guerrilla general to a general in one year.

But until now, he has not even been appointed as deputy commander-in-chief. It is estimated that I will have to wait until my squadron returns to the court after the war before I can arrange it for him. "

General Da Shen looked confused. Who are you trying to trick, Supervisor Lin?

Aren't you, Supervisor Lin, unable to trust other military generals, so you begged the brave and fearless Tadonglou to stay in Biaoying as a general?

If you are promoted to Deputy Commander-in-Chief, you will not be able to be given the title of Supervisor Lin to command the standard battalion, so you deliberately put rewards behind others based on merit.

At this time, Li Yu suddenly had an epiphany. He pushed the golden mountain and knocked down the jade pillar. He bowed his head and said loudly:

"I really don't know anyone in the court, but I only know Supervisor Lin!

After the Wanwanglin Supervisory Army returns to the court in triumph one day, he will still remember the last general! "

That's right, Lin Tailai raised his glass to signal, and said boldly: "Look, you're just talking about this!

After all, you and I can be regarded as the righteousness of fighting from Lingzhou to Ningxia City together, not to mention the useless ones. "

Winning over generals with the highest cost performance is another plus!

After all, he still didn't dare to get drunk, so he just wanted to do whatever he wanted. Lin Tailai comforted Li Yu and returned to his camp.

General Da Shen, the head of the publicly funded bodyguard, finally understood that psychological massage is about winning people's hearts.

Supervisor Lin, who was in charge of psychological massage, only felt tired. The imperial court was so sick that he sought medical treatment. Why did he send so many soldiers here at once?

The relationship between the commander-in-chief and the commander-in-chief is complicated. Even if Li Rusong comes, other commander-in-chiefs may not all obey Li Rusong.

The water here is too deep. Brother Li, you can't control it. If the other soldiers don't listen to you, there's nothing you can do. Let him, Supervisor Lin, command the final battle!

By the way, when it comes to psychological massage, one person is missing.

So Supervisor Lin suddenly stopped General Da Shen again and said in a serious voice: "Donglou, I have looked at all the generals recently and found that there is no one better than you.

Even though all of them are from this commander-in-chief and that commander-in-chief, in fact, none of the generals and talents are as good as you!

In my heart, you are also the commander-in-chief! When Li Rusong comes, there will be eight general soldiers here in Ningxia City, and the eighth in my heart is you! "

General Da: "."

It's rare for Lin Junmen to say good things, but he actually sounds so nice! He is worthy of being the top scholar in both civil and military fields.
