Chapter 65 The Northeast Strategy

Zhu Qizhen also thought so in his heart.

After all, things have priorities, and after the tile spur is dealt with, even if it is a backhand to destroy North Korea, it will not be a difficult task. After all, no matter if it is Korea, Annan, Luchuan, Songpan, or even Japan, these external troubles are all younger brothers compared to the tile spurs.

Therefore, it is not advisable to be distracted at this time.

Moreover, it is necessary to win over the DPRK more.

Although Joseon seems to be the most loyal vassal of the Ming Dynasty. But in fact, look at the relationship between Goryeo and the Yuan court during the Yuan Dynasty. The marriage between Goryeo and the Yuan court was very close.

Therefore, the enemy is in front of him, and he does not expect North Korea to help much, but he cannot push North Korea to the other side.

Zhu Qizhen asked with a little knowingness: "Why?" ”

Yishaha said: "The minister recently got two pieces of news, one is that the envoy sent an envoy to North Korea, but was rejected by the king of Korea. It's just that there is no news from official channels, and the second news is that he first made an appointment with Tai Ningwei's commander Humble Chi. Humble Chi married his daughter to Yexian. When the situation in Liaodong changed greatly, the ministers thought that the Jurchens of Jianzhou should be strengthened and used by the imperial court. ”

Zhu Qizhen was not much surprised when he heard that there were envoys to North Korea, it should be expected, and the diplomatic front always has to go aisle before the war. So it's too normal to have such a move first.

What is abnormal is that North Korea is not so honest, and it seems that it rejected the envoy of the Watts, who knows if it is openly refused, and there is a secret agreement in private.

However, Zhu Qizhen didn't care.

Zhu Qizhen is only guarding against North Korea, not afraid of North Korea.

As long as the Ming Dynasty does not make a big defeat in the Tumubao Incident, the DPRK will not act rashly.

But another piece of news shocked Zhu Qizhen and said, "What do you say, the marriage between the tile spur and the Wuliang Ha Sanwei?" ”

Yizha said: "Weichen does not dare to deceive Your Majesty. ”

Zhu Qizhen secretly said in his heart: "Ma Shun should die." With such important news, I actually need a foreign minister to tell me. ”

The composition of the Mongol tribes has been analyzed earlier, and the Eastern Mongolian Arutai tribe has been wiped out by the Washorn Tuhuan. And Uliangha was also subjugated and dejoyed during the period of dehuanation.

But after the death of Tuhuan, the prestige that the tile spur had established during the Dehuan period dissipated considerably.

But also in the first period of more than a year, there was no idleness.

He re-established a political alliance with Tokhtobuhua through marriage, of course, unlike his father, during the Tokhovan period, Tokhtobuhua was just a puppet, but now Tokhtobuhua has his own people.

At the time of maintaining the unity of the Mongol regime, it was now beginning to regain its strength. The marriage between Vaspur and Uliangha, if it is really achieved.

The strength of the tile spur increased greatly, and he marched in Liaodong

war, going south and entering the customs, etc., will have more initiative in warfare.

This is by no means a good thing.

Zhu Qizhen asked: "What do you think is the purpose of the marriage between the tile spur and the Uliangha?" ”

Yizha said: "The minister doesn't know, the minister has been in Liaodong for a long time, and he knows everything about Liaodong, but he knows very little about anything outside Liaodong. ”

"It's just that in the opinion of the ministers, the marriage between the Varspur and the Uliangha. There are only two purposes. ”

"First, it is to stabilize the position first, and secondly, to stabilize the east and use troops in other directions."

Zhu Qizhen said: "Why isn't it the thorn that is involved in Nu'er Gandusi." ”

Yizha said: "Because Uliangha does not allow it, Uliangha has long regarded Liaodong as his own land. The first thing to deal with if you want to occupy Liaodong is none other than Wuliang Ha Sanwei. ”

Zhu Qizhen immediately understood that he had ignored the ambitions of Wuliang Ha Sanwei.

For a long time, Zhu Qizhen felt that there was only one enemy on the grassland, and that was the tile spur first, and even between the world, there were only two chess players.

He is also with the first.

It's just that he forgot.

In fact, every force actually has its own interests.

The same is true of Uryanha, the union of Uryanha and Watts, each with its own mind. Thinking about this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhu Qizhen pondered silently in his heart: "I also have to start somewhere first." He immediately felt a headache. He probably thinks it should be the west, but there are also many places in the northwest, such as Zhufanwei in the Western Regions, the Seven Guards of Guanxi, and Hamiwei, and even Hetao, Ganshan?

However, Zhu Qizhen still has time to think about this problem, after all, it is still news. If it really wants to land, it will take time, and then it will be the first strategic adjustment. At least within a year or two.

Faced with this sign, Zhu Qizhen no longer had the mind to care about a trivial matter on the North Korean side.

Zhu Qizhen said: "In this case, let Fancha come back." It's just that you have to control them well and use them in the future. ”

Zhu Qizhen has always wanted to turn Nuer Gandusi into a county, but Nuer Gandusi is not a no-man's land, and most of the local Jurchens in Nuer Gandusi. Hit and pull.

In fact, the people of Nuer Gandusi are not all Jurchens, but they are called Jurchens by the Ming Dynasty, namely Jianzhou Jurchen, Haixi Jurchen, and Savage Jurchen. Three. The Fanchabu is a branch of the Jianzhou Jurchens, while the Haixi Jurchens are in the Songhua River Valley, and the Jianzhou Jurchens are first in the north and later in the border area between China and North Korea.

There is still some origin to be said of these.

The most incredible is the Savage Jurchen, what is the Savage Jurchen?

For the Jurchen guards of the Nuer Gandu Division, they must pay tribute to the imperial court, according to the closeness, there are two dynasties a year, one dynasty a year, and a little more interval.

The savage Jurchens are those Jurchens who are located in remote areas and do not come to pay tribute.

Daming's control over the Nuer Gandu Division, relying only on tribute, was too weak in Zhu Qizhen's opinion.

Naturally, I want cloth, and since the Ministry of Investigation is friendly with Yisha, it is natural to settle it well. As an important chess piece. Lay the foundation for the future operation of Daming in Nuergan.

Yisha naturally agreed.

After saying something, Yishiha turned in his heart, but finally did not say it. That is, the attitude of the DPRK side towards the Ministry of Vancha is very subtle.

It is not only committed to weakening the Ministry of Vancha, but also does not want the Ministry of Vancha to leave North Korea. It's to want to annex them. However, he saw that Zhu Qizhen was in a bad mood, and felt that he could take care of this matter by himself.

Just press it and don't say anything.

After Zhu Qizhen let Yishu go down, his face turned black all of a sudden, and he said, "Call Ma Shun to come over." ”

The commander of the Jinyi Guard, Ma Shun, soon came. Kneeling on the ground when he entered the door, he said, "The commander of the Chen Jinyi Guard is Ma Shun, and I will meet Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Qizhen flipped through the folds on the imperial case, but it was a letter from a senator in Shaanxi who was dissatisfied with the reception of the post officer, and was about to die with a cane, killing people for no reason, and was sued by the people below.

"The station." Zhu Qizhen said secretly in his heart. He was a little distracted, the controversy about the Daming Post Station was not once or twice, Zhu Qizhen vaguely remembered that Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong also had a fight about the post station. It seems to be a murder case about the post station, Zhu Qizhen secretly said in his heart: "There are frequent accidents at the post station, why in the end?" ”

Although he thought this in his heart, he still criticized, "The university scholar Ma Yu and the Jinyi Wei Sanfa Division will be interrogated, and it will be reported to me." ”

A single case, unless it's a big one. Zhu Qizhen generally doesn't deal with it. He was more concerned about the maladministration of the post station. But he also understands that there are natural disasters inside and thorns outside.

It's really not the time for major reforms.

You can only keep it in mind first, and then deal with it slowly when you have time.

That's it, Zhu Qizhen reviewed several folds in a row, as if Ma Shun was air.

Ma Shun knelt down and was sweating profusely.

Although the weather is very hot, in the Qianqing Palace, there are ice basins all over the place, which is much more refreshing than outside. Ma Shun was sweating profusely, and he was even more frightened.

He drilled hard in his heart, and said secretly: "What is there that makes this young master unhappy." ”

Speaking of Jinyiwei's affairs, Ma Shun is also bitter.

Zhu Qizhen seems to have looked at the intelligence organizations in the ancient plots in later generations, such as Langya Pavilion and the like. Naturally, I think Jinyiwei can do it.

God is pitiful, Jinyiwei still has the ability to supervise the minister, and there are also excellent means to supervise the rebellion in the army, as for sending secret piles to foreign countries to collect intelligence, Jinyiwei has not done this for a long time.

It was only after Ma Shun took office that he gritted his teeth and restarted.

But since the new start, it has not been smooth, whether it is an objective or subjective problem. Anyway, it was not once or twice that Zhu Qizhen was dissatisfied.
