Chapter 1189: The Best Candidate

The generals were stunned for a moment, glanced at each other, and saw that Zhang Fu didn't speak, and he didn't say much.

Zhu Zhanji hummed, glanced at Zhang Fu and said, "Guogong, what do you think?"

Zhang Fu had already expected today's situation, so he was not so alarmed by Zhu Zhanji's questioning, and thought about it: "Weichen thinks that everything that the two Yang adults said is the words of the old ministers to seek the country, and Weichen has been a lot older these years, and the pain left in the early years has also flared up from time to time, so it is indeed not suitable to lead the troops to fight in Annam! ”

After listening to Zhang Fu's words, Zhu Zhanji hummed and said: "The difference between the words of the Duke of the Kingdom, back then, you were ordered by the emperor to ask for a handover. The thief's embankment is nine hundred miles long. That is, under the pile, and pierced the bottom. Auxiliary but order to attack, a qiē ignores. Go to the ladder attached to the city, and the torch will be raised. The thief panicked and entered the city. The column rejects people, and the painting of lions is shocking. Unified arrows are added, half fleeing and half dead. Capture (que) season, and give the seal. If you are reversing and leveling, you will have done enough. Please set up Chen Sun, the sacred heart is beautiful, according to my view, throughout the ages, those who can compare with the Duke of the Kingdom are Xu Dar, the Duke of Wei of the Ming Dynasty!"

As soon as these words came out, not only everyone was surprised, but Zhang Fu was also a little surprised, all along, he felt that he was highly meritorious and feared by the emperor, so he was repeatedly not reused, and now it seems that he has misunderstood.

"Weichen is ashamed?" Zhang Fu said with a worried face.

Zhu Zhanji waved his hand and said: " I believe that hundreds of years later, future generations will also evaluate Guogong like this, I don't let Guogong go to Annam, it's not that I don't trust Guogong's talent, on the contrary, I know Guogong's talent better than anyone else, but I still won't let you go, I'm really afraid that Annan's hot and humid air will kill Guogong, secondly, in the past few years, although the Tartars are busy with infighting, but their strength is greatly enhanced, the momentum of the tile spur is gradually rising, I have to be guarded, Guogong is a civil and military all-rounder, in fact, he is an unborn general, there is Guogong in the court, it is undoubtedly a kind of deterrent to Mongolia, for me, it is confident in my heart!”

These words were not loud, but they were extremely sincere, and the position of the ministers was moving, Zhang Fu burst into tears and knelt on the ground: "......Your Majesty?" shouted a sentence, and could not shout again.

Zhu Zhanji was also a little moved, raised his hand and said, "Guogong, please get up!"

"Yes, ...... emperor?" Zhang Fu still couldn't cry, many years of resentment, disappeared without a trace at this moment, and even felt that he had such a sense of grievance, he really shouldn't, he wanted to say something, but after all, he didn't know what to say, so he could only secretly say in his heart: "The emperor treats me as a countryman, I treat the emperor as a countryman, and I Zhang Fu will definitely die for Daming in my lifetime!" Unexpectedly, it was a prophecy, orthodox fourteen years), and when he invaded first, Wang Zhen instigated Yingzong to recruit in person, and Zhang Fu accompanied him, but he was not allowed to participate in the military and political affairs. Zhang Fu was old at the time and did not dare to speak silently. In the same year, during the civil engineering change, Zhang Fu died in the army at the age of 75. He was posthumously named the king of Dingxing, and was called a loyal martyr. This is a later story, so I won't show it for the time being.

Let's say, after Zhu Zhanji said something, he continued to ask: "Lord Yang, do you have a suitable candidate?"

Yang Shiqi hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this person must not only be familiar with military affairs, but also have the talent for governance, so he needs to consider carefully!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an immediate commotion in the crowd, no wonder, in the past two years, Yang Zheng's limelight has been too loud, his name is too big, and he became a high-ranking official at a young age.

Although Yang Zheng knew this result early on, he was relieved to see Yang Shiqi put himself forward so openly, and squinted at everyone's reactions.

Zhu Zhanji hummed and said, "What does Lord Shangshu think?" This is to ask Yang Rong, because Yang Rong has always been in charge of military affairs.

Yang Rong walked out from behind Yang Shiqi, hugged his fists and said: "What Lord Yang said is that this campaign against Annan is indeed a big event, and it is not allowed to be sloppy, and the person you want to choose must be a person who is a civil and military all-rounder.

Zhu Zhanji asked Yang Pu again, and the answers he got were generally the same, so that the three important ministers spoke in unison, even if the ministers had objections, they should weigh it at this time, so there was a lot of discussion in the hall, but no one came out to oppose it.

Zhu Zhanji nodded, obviously satisfied with this result, glanced at the ministers for a year, and asked, "What do you adults think?"

Everyone, look at me, let me see, Wenchen has always been headed by Sanyang, and at this time he more or less agreed, while the military generals did not say a word.

Zhu Zhanji looked at it and said, "Xue Aiqing, what do you think?"

After Xue Lu conquered Le'an Prefecture, he was ordered to stay in Le'an with Shangshu Zhang Ben. In the second year of Xuande, the threat of the vassal king was lifted, and he inspected the provinces of Jinan, and strictly disciplined the soldiers, and did not allow the soldiers to disturb the people. Later, Xue Lu once again served as the general of Zhenshuo, went north to inspect Kaiping, and then stationed in Xuanfu (now Xuanhua, Hebei).

At this time, Warat invaded Kaiping and camped 300 miles away when he withdrew. Xue Lu led his elite troops to march day and night, and arrived at the enemy camp three days later, and sent light cavalry to charge and break the enemy army. After Xue Lu returned to the army, he saw that the enemy army was following behind, and defeated him again. Soon, Xue Lu was recalled to Jingshi, and when he heard this, he thought about it and stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "Your recommendation from Lord Yang, Weichen has no opinion, but Annan is not trivial, and if he is a little careless, he is afraid that he will be disadvantageous to the country, so the general thinks that it is better for this candidate to be cautious?"

Zhu Zhanji sighed and said, "General Xue has always known people well, how to speak this time, I think there is a suitable candidate?"

Xue Lu said: "Back to the emperor, Weichen does have a candidate?"

"Who?" asked Zhu Zhanji.

"Zhang Ben, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department?" Xue Lu said loudly.

Everyone thought that Xue Lu would recommend a military general, or after Wang Sun, they wanted to laugh a few times, but when they heard that it was Zhang Ben, the person who wanted to ridicule just now immediately swallowed back the words in his mouth, and the huge Jinluan Hall immediately became extremely quiet.

Yang Zheng felt a little surprised, and said in his heart: "What is the origin of this one, and why are everyone so expressions."

Zhang Benda has a background, this person was awarded Jiangdu Zhi County as a Guozi Jian Sheng during the Hongwu period. When the troops of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, arrived in Yangzhou, Wang Bin of Yushi resisted according to the city and was bound by the guards. Zhang Ben led his father to greet and surrender. Zhu Di was the first to be attached to Fang Ji and Tian Qingcheng, the governors of Chu and Taizhou, so he ordered them to be the prefect of Yangzhou with Zhang Ben, and to govern the affairs of the government together with the current prefect Tan Youde. Soon he was promoted to the right political secretary of Jiangxi, and since then he has supervised the transportation of grain and grass many times.

has been an official for decades and is extremely incorruptible, and Ming Chengzu Zhu Di also knows this. When a banquet was held for close ministers, a piece of silverware was placed on everyone's shore, and these were given to everyone present, except for the pottery on Zhang Ben's case, Zhu Di said to him: "Aiqing is known as 'poor Zhang', and silverware is useless. Zhang Ben kowtowed to thank him, but he was very famous in the Yongle Dynasty, but the official never came up.

It was not until after Mingrenzong Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne that he was appointed as the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department and in charge of the affairs of the Imperial Procuratorate. When summoned, talk about the gains and losses of current affairs and ask for strict armament. Zhu Gaochi accepted his Jianyi and left him in the military department.

In the early years of Xuande, Cai Xin, a waiter of the Ministry of Works, asked for the family of the military craftsman to be subordinate to Jinyiwei. Zhang Ben said: "There are 26,000 families of military craftsmen, belonging to 245 guards, and those who are craftsmen are temporarily serving one ding per family. If all of them were to be recruited, each family would be counted at three or four dings, and the number would be nearly 100,000. So it goes

Not only is there a shortage of troops, but also human feelings are horrified, so it is not feasible. Emperor Zhu Zhanji praised Zhang Ben's opinion.

When the Han Shu people were recruited, Zhang Ben followed and dealt with military salaries. After the Han Shu were captured, Zhang Ben was ordered to pacify his men and register the rest of the party. After returning, he reported to the emperor that the military and government had been bad for a long time, and that the evil people were able to get rid of the country by accepting bribes, and that he had brought civilians to enrich the army. The emperor selected the courtiers to make corrections. At that time, horses were multiplied in large quantities, and the soldiers and civilians in Jinai were trapped by animal husbandry, so Zhang Ben invited them to Shandong, Henan, and Daimyo to shepherd them separately. Shandong and Henan horse breeding began from this. The Jin king Zhu Ji Huohuang was deprived of his title for illegal behavior, and Zhang Ben was ordered to assign his guards to various border towns, which was a very good idea, which was adopted by Zhu Zhanji and also attracted his attention.

But in the Xuande Dynasty, Zhu Di left a lot of talents, Zhang Ben is certainly talented, but Wen can't be Anbang, Wu can't set the country, and was quickly forgotten by Zhu Zhanji, at this time Xue Lu mentioned that he remembered such a person, nodded and said: "This person is fair and strict, familiar with legislation, is indeed a suitable person?"

No one answered, and the hall was once again silent.

Zhu Zhanji didn't seem to like this atmosphere, frowned slightly, and said, "Do you Aiqing still have any opinions?"
