"Young master, our new one..." knowing that Yang Chendong is unhappy, Hu mang still wants to continue to fight. But Yang Chendong said again, "this time, the young master will lead the troops in person, so don't ask for instructions. By the way, a lot of manpower will be used on this trip, and the needed food, grass and other things will be transported to the city in a short time. Well, everything will be handed over to the logistics command."
This opening just called Yang Si's name, even Yu Mian was excluded. Yu Mian's face became very ugly.
Yu Mian is not just Yu Qian's son. If this is the case, Yang Chendong will not give him an important task. The big deal is to spend more money to find a comfortable place to stay. But he didn't. instead, he put such an important burden on him. This is enough to illustrate his ability.
But being able doesn't mean that he is completely open-minded. At least in dealing with the Far East, he doesn't do very well and his thought is too conservative.
In this matter, Yang Chendong can also see that there is no problem for people like Yu Mian to keep their career, but there is still a lot of difference when it comes to development. Even so, he will take good care of his home, which can be regarded as the best use of people.
Hu Mang and Yu Mian, two people who opposed the investment in Canada's Yuandong Prefecture, fought side by side. Only Yang Si, who has always advocated strong support, was reused, which has explained Yang Chendong's attitude.
"By the way, this time, the new second army will also be transferred to the front line of Far East state. The two cities of Shajing and Jingzhou they guarded will belong to the defense line of the new first group army, and you two must keep them well." Yang Chendong seemed to think of something, added this sentence, and then turned around and left. I haven't stopped all the way. It's better to have a sleep first.
Yang Chendong left. Yang Si also had a lot of things to do next. He went to the logistics command to arrange. Only Hu Mang and Yu Mian remained in place.
Hu mang needless to say, his performance this time disappointed the young master. He regretted 11 million. If the young master had known that he attached so much importance to the Far East state, where would he care if the pay and return were in direct proportion? He would have ordered to send troops for support long ago.
Now, not only himself, but also the new group army was thrown aside this time. This feeling made him very uncomfortable.
But Yu Mian didn't mean to admit his mistake. Or he didn't realize he was wrong. After seeing Yang Chendong leave like this, he got up and looked at Hu Mang and said: "Commander tiger doesn't have to be discouraged. We didn't do anything wrong this time. The Far East state is too far away from us and too barren. The more support there, the greater the loss will be. I'll make it clear to the sixth young master now. I'll dissuade him."
As he spoke, Yu Mian strode to follow Yang Chendong's departure. Hu mang was smart, and then followed him. He also wanted to see if yu Mian could persuade the young master. If so, at least it proved that this decision was not wrong.
Yang Chendong just returned to the bedroom of Shicheng palace and washed his face. When he was ready to go to the bedroom and have a comfortable sleep, Yang Er came to report that Yu Mian asked for an interview.
"No, the young master is tired." Yang Chendong waved his hand. Of course he knows what Yu Mian is going to say. He really doesn't want to quarrel with each other now. It's not terrible for a person to make a mistake, but he's afraid he won't realize his mistake at all. Just for the sake of his father Yu Qian, he didn't care.
"Young master, you'd better see him. Lord Yu knelt outside the door. He claimed that if you didn't see him, he would kneel and die there." Yang Er scratched his head and said with a headache.
"This Yu Mian is really pedantic." Yang Chendong knew that he couldn't sleep after hearing it.
He knew that the imperial historian of the Ming Dynasty was very powerful. Some people were not even afraid of death in order to speak to the emperor. On the contrary, some people were proud of it. Even if the emperor ordered to kill them, they were still excited that they could be written into history books.
In Yang Chendong's eyes, I can't understand it at all. It's not neuropathy. What is it?
But he hasn't experienced it in these years, which makes him think it's just a legend. Now there's finally an example. "Hey." after a sigh, Yang Chendong knows that he's gone.
"Please let him in." Yang Chendong had to tidy up a skirt and said helplessly.
"Young master, tiger head is kneeling outside, too. Look." Yang Er reminded him carefully.
"All come in, all come in." one is Yang and the other is Fang. Yang Chendong decided to meet them and see what they wanted to say.
Yang Er got the order and went out. After a while, Yu Mian and Hu mang walked into the hall. When they saw Yang Chendong, they knelt down together.
"Don't kneel down, just stand and say anything." Yang Chendong kindly dissuaded.
"No, this time the minister must talk on his knees." Yu Mian was like a stubborn donkey who didn't hit the south wall and didn't look back, raising his head and sticking his neck.
"Well, if you're willing to kneel, kneel." Yang Chendong looked at Yu Mian's picture. If you don't let me kneel, I'll die to show you. He was simply lazy to take care of it. As long as the other party was happy, whatever he wanted.
Finally I can kneel on the ground and Yu Mian looks very happy. He straightened himself first, and then he said: "Wang, it's my intention not to send troops to support the Far East state, which has nothing to do with Commander tiger. My subordinates think that the Far East state is too far away, and half of the climate in a year is cold. There is no future for development in such a cold place, and it's not worth investing too much there. Now Wang has preliminarily determined the grassland. You also said that there are many minerals near Shicheng, which are now What we have to do here is to stabilize the situation here, appease the people here, reclaim grain fields and minerals, and win step by step. When we have enough strength, it's not too late to find a way to go north. "
"Wang, it has always been a taboo for strategists to go on an expedition."
"Wang, don't let the Army take risks because of selling names. It's not worth it..."
Speaking later, Yu Mian knocked his head to the ground while kneeling on the ground. Only a few times, there was blood oozing from his forehead. If the tiger mang on one side didn't see the opportunity quickly, I'm afraid the consequences would be more serious.
This scene is an eye opener for Yang Chendong.
He also saw from some historical books that some direct ministers had committed various acts of death in order to make the emperor accept his words. However, they were only recorded in words. In this life, he became the king of Wunan, but none of the people below did so, so he attributed everything to his wisdom.
Because he is wise, his subordinates will not oppose his own opinions. But now, Yu Mian's behavior is to let him know that even if you think something is right, others will not necessarily think so.
Sigh in your heart, do you think what is right must be right?
Of course, Yang Chendong won't say it in this way. It hurts the minister's heart, and it's not what a famous gentleman did. What he has to do now is not reprimand, but reason. Persuading the other party with reason is to convince people with virtue.
"Well, Yu Mian, you said that the Far East is a bitter and cold place. The king asked you, wasn't Shicheng a bitter and cold place before? Who could have thought that there would be today when we first invested in the construction of the city here? That is, Shicheng can create miracles, why can't the Far East?"
"It's different, it's different." Yu Mian raised his head and said quite forcefully, "after all, Shicheng is only the edge of the grassland. Whether it's land or water, it can be regarded as convenient transportation, and it plays a very important military role. It's worth investing more here."
"Then who can say that the Far East state has no important military geographical role? Who knows if one day, the Far East state will be as prosperous as Shicheng or even more than here?" Yang Chendong, who is familiar with later history, knows that what he said is correct, because later generations have proved all this with action.
Yu Mian doesn't know this. He just thinks Yang Chendong did all this for face.
In his opinion, I'm afraid that King Wu Nan already knows that investing so much manpower and material resources in the Far East state is a loss of money, just because of good face and can't admit it. Now he has to make a mistake and continue to invest troops and financial resources in the Far East state, which is simply going farther and farther on the wrong road.
As a person who was valued by him and also a person who received kindness, Yu Mian had to stand up and say it well. The king's face is important, but it can't make mistakes again and again because of face and lose so many people and money.
Although Yang Chendong's words are true, it's a pity that Yu Mian, who thinks he has seen through everything, doesn't think so. Seeing Yang Chendong still talking about the good of the Far East state, he looks incredulous.
This scene is being seen by Yang Chendong. He knows that Yu Mian doesn't believe his judgment on the Far East state at all. Even so, no matter how many explanations are useless, it can only be slapped in the face with practical actions. "Well, even if the city Lord doesn't believe it, why don't we just gamble?"
"Gambling? I don't gamble." Yu Mian shook his head and said disdainfully.
"Your mother." Yang Chendong almost scolded. Facing Yu Mian, a minister who doesn't enter the oil and salt, he really doesn't know what to say. He is more and more sure in his heart that he must look like this time and succeed. Otherwise, I'm afraid with this victory, there will not be only Yu Mian under his banner, but also Li Mian At that time, it would be even more difficult to do anything.
This will also be a great blow to his authority, which is something he absolutely doesn't want to see.
"No, you have to gamble this time, and you have to gamble if you don't gamble. It will last for three years. If the Far East state can't be self-sufficient and prove its important military geographical location within three years, it will be regarded as my king's loss. If you have any suggestions in the future, my king will listen carefully, and even give priority to your opinions. But if you prove everything after three years, you will lose and go there At that time, when the king made a decision, you could not obstruct and interfere. How about it? "
