172. The situation in the Southwest has changed(2/2)
"Do you know what happened to me and Xisi's wedding?"
Haruko nodded and said:
"It is your happiness for Sister Xi to marry you like this. Sister Xi is generous and doesn't care about those things. She can get along well with anyone!"
Du Buying replied:
"Then I won't treat you, Huizi and Xiaoyi badly. If I have the chance in the future, I will give you another wedding gift!"
At this time, Huizi came with a bowl of soup. When she heard Du Buwang's words, she said:
"We don't ask for those, as long as you have us in your heart!"
Then he started feeding the soup to Du Buying drink.
The next day, Du Buwang helped the two of them to the Ministry of War meeting hall and discussed with Daozhu Wang's affairs on the pacification of bandits in the southwest.
The participating general Zhang Jing, the commander of Xie Peijian, Weng Su, and the inspector Wang Qin.
I heard Wang Yangming say:
"The eight villages led by Lu Su, Wang Shou and other bandits have now joined forces with many rioters in the south to rebel. They only regret that the corruption of the southwest prefectures and counties and the disarray of military morale has caused these bandits to occupy most of the southwest. We must find a way to eliminate these bandits now!"
Du Buwuwang asked:
"Shangshu Wang, we can mobilize now has opponents, how many bandits are there now?"
Wang Yangming signaled the inspector Wang Qin to reply.
I heard Wang Qin reply:
"Now we can mobilize all troops less than 200,000, and the number of bandits in the eight major villages has been nearly 600,000!"
Du Buyi was shocked and asked:
"Why are the bandits so much?"
Wang Yangming explained:
"Lu Su, the king was bewitched by these bandits and sent people to incite soldiers and civilians to rebel. The people in the southwest were unstable, and most of them were under the jurisdiction of chieftains. These chieftains were mostly greedy people. After their instigation, they responded to their own interests!"
After listening, Du Buwang said to several people:
"Since that's the case, these chieftains will definitely not be determined to fight for the eight major villages such as King Lu. Why don't we choose the place where the chieftains occupy first to use troops?"
At this time, General Zhang Jing spoke and said:
"Marquis Jingbian means that he will attack these chieftains first, demonstrate to them, and then take the opportunity to pounce on them?"
Then he continued:
"When you have recruited these chieftains, will you cooperate with the chieftains to attack the eight villages?"
Du Buwang said:
"General Zhang Shen understands what I mean, so we should now concentrate our troops to deter these chieftains in southern Guizhou first. After regaining southern Guizhou, we can drive straight into the nests of the eight major villages in Guangxi!"
Wang Yangming slapped the table and said:
"Marquis Jingyuan's proposal is indeed good. I didn't expect you to be so talented in military use!"
Du Buwang smiled and replied:
"It's okay, otherwise I would have been beaten by the Tatar soldiers in the north and fled in panic!"
Wang Yangming also smiled and said:
"I recommended you to go to Datong Mansion to bet once, but I didn't expect you to be a talented general who is a self-developed person!"
Du Buying replied:
"It's okay, we won't say these polite words. Since it's already decided, we'll arrange troops and prepare food and grass to set off today!"
At this time, Wang Yangming came over and asked Du Buwang in a low voice:
"Can you march like this?"
Du Buying replied:
"Please force it!"
Wang Yangming asked again:
"Have you tried recently that I have taught you internal strength and mental therapy?"
Du Buwang said to Wang Yangming:
"I'm just trying to tell you something!"
Then Wang Yangming helped Du Buwang to the vacant wing room in the backyard.
After helping Du Buwang sit down, Du Buwang asked:
"Master Wang, is your mental method passed down from Taoist ancestor Zhang Tianshi?"
Wang Yangming was stunned for a moment and said:
"How do you know?"
Du Buwang told Wang Yangming about the resignation of the Tianshi Zhang near Yangming Cave.
Wang Yangming smiled and said:
"I have lived in Yangming Cave for so long but haven't discovered this secret. I've actually discovered it by you, my brother. You are such a blessing!"
Then he said:
"It turns out that my mental method is similar to Master Zhang Tian's mental method. That concentration is inherited from the same lineage. My mental method is also obtained from an ancient scroll, but it has been lost!"
Du Buying replied:
"So that's it, but now I'm completely unable to use my mental method, so maybe I can only take care of it slowly."
At this time, Wang Yangming took the opportunity to take the lower pulse for Du Buwuwong, shook his head and said:
"You young people, you should be careful and try to restrain yourself with women!"
Du Buwuwang replied:
"Of course I know!"
Then asked again:
"Master Wang heard that you have been happy recently. Is there any such thing?"
Wang Yangming smiled helplessly and said:
"But at this time, a woman named Zhang Ji, who was saved by my brother two years ago. Unexpectedly, he fell in love with me, so I married her. Last year, Zhang Ji gave birth to an incense for me, a man who is almost twilight, and she was called Zheng Cong!"
Du Buwang said with a smile:
"So my nephew's name is Zhengcong. Master Wang must take me to see his wife and Zhengcong again in the future!"
Wang Yangming replied:
"No problem. When the bandits are slapped this time, they will definitely take you to see their mother and son!"
