Hu Ying said: "What happened later, did this battle fight?" ”

Yang Rong said: "Of course I fought, first prepare four thousand against four thousand, but the other party said that Chen Huai's soldiers and horses are the elite of the imperial court, so they can't fight like this?" Even if you win, you don't have face? ”

Yang Zheng said in his heart: "This barbarian is a little bit of meat, and he doesn't seem to be stupid, this Chen Huai is only afraid that he has been fooled?" ”

At this time, Xia Yuanji also became interested and said, "Chen Dudu agreed?" ”

Chen Dudu also felt that there was some truth in the other party's words, dealing with this gang of miscellaneous troops, if it was four thousand against four thousand, it would be disgraceful to win, and he would face off with two thousand soldiers and horses against the other party's four thousand soldiers and horses at the moment! “

"Isn't this child's play, the art of war has clouds, ten are to surround it, five are to attack it, and the times are divided, the enemy can fight, if there is little, you can escape, and if not, you can avoid it. Therefore, the small enemy is strong, and the big enemy is captured! They are twice as many as us, can you promise that? Xia Yuanji said angrily.

Yang Rong smiled and said: "The advantage of fewer people and fewer people, three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu, and the soldiers and horses in Chen Huai's hands are not bad?" “

Hu Ying was anxious to know the result later, so she kept asking: "What happened later, did you just fight like this?" “

Yang Rong said: "That barbarian thought that he had picked up a bargain this time, four thousand against two thousand, two against one, he was very happy, but they muttered about Chen Huai's ability, but the result was still a big defeat?" “

This Chen Huai, Yang Zheng has heard of someone, this person is inheriting his father's position as the deputy of Zhending. In the early years of Yongle, Chen Huai accumulated merit and was promoted to the commander of the capital. Later, he followed the pacification of Annan and was promoted to the commander of the capital, in charge of the affairs of the Shanxi Metropolitan Division. Later, he once again followed Zhang Fu to capture the Annan thief Jianding, and then followed the governor Fei Xuan to conquer the traitor Tiger Bao in Liangzhou, all of which were meritorious. After Mingrenzong Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne, Chen Huai was promoted to the governor of Tongzhi.

After Zhu Zhanji ascended the throne, in order to conquer Le'an Prefecture, many officials were transferred from the frontier, and Chen Huai replaced Liang Ming as the chief military officer to guard Ningxia.

At that time, the officers and troops who conquered Cochin were repeatedly defeated, and the edict sent the Songpan army to reinforcements, and the soldiers were afraid to travel. Qianhu Qian Hong conspired with everyone, falsely claimed that the Fan people rebelled, and led troops to rob Maiza and other tribes. The people were so frightened that they rebelled. They killed the commander Chen Jie and others, captured Songpan and Diexi, and surrounded Wei, Mao and other prefectures. Commanding Wu Yu, Han Quan, and Gao Long failed one after another, and the west was in an uproar. The edict sent He Min, the commander of Honglu Temple, and Wu Wei to Zhaofu, and ordered Chen Huai to lead Liu Zhao, Zhao An, and Jiang Gui to lead tens of thousands of people to follow them. After Wu Wei and the others arrived, the thieves did not accept the appeasement. Wu Wei and Xue Jixian, the governor of Longzhou, attacked the thieves and recovered Songpan. After Chen Huai arrived, he still used Wu Wei as the striker, so he recovered Diexi, surrendered more than 20 villages, appeased more than 12,200 households, and recaptured more than 2,200 soldiers and civilians who were plundered.

Chen Huai stayed behind to guard Sichuan. When he was in the town, he indulged in lawlessness, interfered in local administrative affairs, accepted bribes to shelter sinners, seized tuntian, whipped and humiliated Chai Zhen and others, and was impeached many times. The emperor issued an edict to rebuke him, and showed him the recital of the impeachment of him by the imperial historian. Chen Huai took the blame. But the emperor ignored it. It has become a good story in the court, but this person also has some skills in fighting, and this time he is very eye-catching in his quest for barbarians.

"I didn't expect that Chen Dudu had some skills in fighting, so he could clean up the barbarians, which is really my blessing to the Ming Dynasty?" Many officials in the crowd chimed in.

Yang Rong laughed and said: "This Chen Huai does have some skills, those barbarians saw that the four thousand soldiers were defeated and could not form an army, so they immediately quit, and on the second day, they didn't know where to get four thousand men and horses, plus the previous soldiers and horses, a total of six thousand men and horses were gathered, and Chen Huai was asked to fight again!" “

Everyone listened interestingly, and saw that Yang Rong, the secretary of the military department, spoke easily, obviously this battle was won, so no one was nervous, and the atmosphere seemed extremely harmonious.

"How's it going this time?" This time the question is meaningful.

Yang Rong said: "The ending is almost the same, the barbarians are 6,000 people, Chen Huai is still 2,000 people, as soon as the two sides start a war, those barbarians hear that it is Chen Huai's men and horses, and before the war starts, they lose their weapons and start to flee, this battle still makes the other party collapse......?" “

"Haha...... Ha ha......? The officials laughed amusefully.

Xia Yuanji said: "Can you add more troops this time?" “

Yang Rong said with a smile: "There are not many soldiers and horses in the hands of that barbarian, and they were instigated by their subordinates to make a lot of noise for a while, after learning Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, six thousand men and horses are already at the top, how can there be people and horses, after being completely beaten down, there are no more soldiers and horses to add?" After speaking, everyone laughed.

Yang Zheng also secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it, affected by the film and television dramas of his previous life, his evaluation of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty has not been high, and most of the guys who have suffered defeats in his mind now seem to be the Ming Dynasty at this time, although the army is not as strong as the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, but it is also one of the best strong teams, look at that Chen Huai to deal with those barbarians, one against three, if it is not for strict military discipline and well-trained, it is impossible to achieve this effect? “

Everyone talked and laughed, the atmosphere was excellent, at this time although the Ming Dynasty attached importance to the civil officials, but the status of the generals was not low, and even because of the war in Annam, Le'an Prefecture, and Mongolia, the status of the generals was still above the civilian officials, it can be said that the Ming civil officials and military generals at this time were the most harmonious, and there was also trust between the courtiers and the emperor, and the entire Ming monarch and ministers were harmonious, and they were working hard for the future prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a voice: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

Shocked, he hurriedly stood up and saluted with his fists like the ministers: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" “

Zhu Zhanji, dressed in a bright dragon robe, walked over with the support of Chen Wu and a eunuch, with his hands on his chest, Yang Zheng knew at a glance that this was the prince born by the Sun family.

Zhu Zhanji seemed to be very happy, his face was full of joy, and he didn't look at the ministers, he walked directly onto the dragon chair that had already been prepared, and he didn't sit down, but turned around with the prince in his arms, glanced at the ministers condescendingly, and said, "Zhu Aiqing doesn't have to be much, sit down and talk!" “

The officials thanked them and sat down.

Zhu Zhanji also sat down on the dragon chair with the prince in his arms, but he was obviously holding the child for the first time, his hands were a little stiff, and with caution, the whole person looked very nervous, lacking the majesty of the emperor in the past, and finally put the child in his arms on his lap, and then gently held it up with his right hand, and put his left hand on the armrest of the dragon chair, secretly relieved, and said: "Today is the ninth week of the emperor's son, according to the rules, the name of the prince today is to be implemented by your ministers?" “

This can be regarded as a good thing, so as soon as Zhu Zhanji's words fell, all the officials immediately lowered their heads and whispered, and the hall suddenly became lively.

Zhu Zhanji glanced at the ministers and continued: "My emperor's ancestor, Hong Wuye, has set the rules early in the morning, and the descendants must be allowed to have a lot of people, and the naming is considered to be repeated. The descendants are born, and the Zongren Mansion is set up with two names according to the world, based on the above word, and the next word is taken from the side of the five elements, with fire, earth, metal, water, and wood as the order, what are the good names of your ministers, you might as well tell me about it? ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers lowered their heads and thought about it.

Zhu Yuanzhang set the rules, and the names of his descendants are mostly based on the law of the five elements: wood gives birth to fire, fire gives birth to earth, earth gives birth to gold, gold gives birth to water, and water gives birth to wood. The emperors of the Ming Dynasty, except for the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, the names of the other eleven emperors were named according to the principle of the five elements of wood, fire, earth, metal and water. The elements contained in the names of the sons are always born of the elements contained in the names of the fathers.

Zhu Yuanzhang's sons Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, etc., all have a wooden side in their names, and the grandson's generation is the third generation of Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaosui, etc., all have a fire word next to the name, the fourth generation of Zhu Zhanji and other names have a soil word bottom, the fifth generation of Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Qiyu and other names are all Jinbian, the sixth generation of Zhu Jianshen, Zhu Jianji and other names have three points of water, the seventh generation of Zhu Youzhu is next to the wooden word, the eighth generation of Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houxi is next to the word fire or related to fire (the meaning of the light is to have fire and sunshine to illuminate), the ninth generation of Zhu Zaiyuan is the bottom of the soil word, the tenth generation of Zhu Yijun is next to the golden word, the eleventh generation of Zhu Changluo, Zhu Changxun is "three points of water", the twelfth generation of Zhu Youxiao, Zhu Youzhen is next to the wooden word. Quite neat and very regular.

The Ming Dynasty royal family was named like this, and there must have been guidance from a master.

So who set this rule?

It is unlikely that this master is the Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang himself. Zhu Yuanzhang was originally illiterate, he was forced to be a monk in his early years, and after the rebellion, he lived a life of licking blood with a knife, calculating this and pondering that all day long, and he should not have time to learn culture.

It is very likely that it is the old Taoist priest Liu Bowen, among the founding people of the Ming Dynasty, he is the only one who is proficient in yin and yang and good at distributing Qiankun strategy.

Coincidentally, the emperor whose name contains the word next to the wooden character generally cannot be passed down by himself or his descendants, and is replaced by a side brother or an outsider, although the reasons for the substitution vary. Among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, there were four emperors named after wood, they were Yongle Emperor Zhu Di, Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youjiao, Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao, and Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen, among which Emperor Tianqi and Emperor Chongzhen were brothers.

It's a pity that there is an obvious problem with the name of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, otherwise it is not known whether the dynasty will really have a long period of stability. This problem is: there is a disconnect between the five elements of gold and water.
