Chapter 141: Who made you thick-skinned
After a few days, the west warm pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, the sunlight poured in.
A small seal with ivory texture, lubricated with slurry oil, was held in the emperor's hand, and between the constant plays, there was no slightest fluctuation on his face.
"Governor Yuan Keli of Denglai played:
The slave thieves invaded Yiju in Korea, the city fell, and the following were killed by moderation, and the slave chieftains were intimidated by the Liao army and retreated to the lair, Amin was defeated on Phi Island, and Linghan Mountain City, and even fell into Anju and other places. ”
"Dozens of generals and officials such as the Anju moderation envoy Nam Yixing, the defense envoy Kim Jun, and tens of thousands of North Korean soldiers and civilians were slaughtered."
"Pyongyang and Huangzhou collapsed without a fight, Amin has arrived in Zhonghe, and the rangers have entered and exited between Huangfeng..."
"King Li Hui of Ariake Joseon, Emperor Qizuo Suzerain:
For North Korea, the Ming Dynasty is the country of parents, the country of kings, and the country of suzerains, and there are 'two great graces'. The grace of great creation, the grace of recreation.
Now the slave rider has arrived in Huangzhou, stationed in Pingshan, and gradually forced Wang Jing. Please also ask Daming to save the Korean people from danger..."
The friendship between Korea and the Ming Dynasty is far beyond that of ordinary suzerains and tributary states.
The grace of the great creation is said to be in the 25th year of Hongwu, when the Goryeo general Li Sung-gye abolished the Goryeo clan and established himself, and implemented the basic national policy of "doing great things" for the Ming Dynasty.
After gaining national recognition, Li Chenggui asked the Ming Dynasty to give him the title of country.
Ming Taizu is known as "Dongyi, but North Korea is beautiful, and its origin is far away, so it can be ancestors in its name." Titian herdsmen, heirs of Yongchang", named the country "North Korea".
Since then, for nearly 300 years, North Korea has always referred to itself as "Ariake Korea" in its national credentials, which is extremely deferential.
As for the grace of reconstruction, it is said that in the twentieth year of Wanli, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who had unified Japan, invaded Korea.
Nearly 200,000 Japanese troops and hundreds of boats and divisions invaded Korea, divided into the Ninth Army, and landed in Busan, North Korea.
Thirty years ago, although the Korean army was stronger than it is now, it was far inferior to the Japanese army that fought hard during the Warring States period.
In just three months, the Japanese army occupied almost the entire territory of Korea. At that time, the king of Joseon, Li Hao, saw that the country was about to be wiped out, so he appealed to the Ming Dynasty and asked for support.
Emperor Wanli overrode public opinion and decided to send elite troops to help at the request of Joseon.
The battle of Wanli to aid the DPRK lasted for seven years, and finally the Ming Dynasty coalition army took advantage of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's illness and death and the Japanese army retreated, and annihilated the Japanese army in Lulianghai in one fell swoop.
This aid to North Korea, the Ming Dynasty lost hundreds of thousands of teachers and millions of salaries, which can be said to be the help of the whole country to restore North Korea.
Now the attitude towards the Ming Dynasty in North Korea is no longer something that the king can say, and the Korean people are eager for the Ming Dynasty.
Quite simply, if there is a king who does not obey the Ming Dynasty, then they will continue to coup d'état and revolt, and replace it with a king who obeys the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Youxiao lowered his eyes, stared at the small seal in his hand, and listened to Wang Chaofu's words, and the following ministers talked about whether to aid the DPRK or not, and expressed their opinions.
Since returning to the palace, Zhu Youxiao has not slept as peacefully as he did when he was in the barracks.
North Korea cannot be forced to go back to Jin, that's the bottom line.
Although the DPRK has slackened its armaments and has done nothing in major matters, it can still have the effect of connecting the Dongjiang River and connecting Liaozuo after all.
If, as in history, this time he was beaten by Amin and took refuge in Houjin, Dongjiang wanted to open up the situation again, it would be even more difficult.
Zhu Youxiao's idea coincides with the Liaodong Economic Strategy and the Liaodong Governor.
During this period of leaving Beijing, Wei Zhongxian approved the trivial matters on behalf of the day, and then reported to the camp to present Zhu Youxiao's imperial review.
At this time, Zhu Youxiao picked up a copy of the inscription book that Wei Zhongxian left on the imperial case, and his eyes moved slightly, this is the two of Liaodong.
"Liaodong Jingluo Xiong Tingbi and Hui Governor Hong Chengchou played:
Aid to the DPRK should not move the army lightly, but quickly send a deviation from the division, attack its emptiness, rush its lair, so that the slaves are involved in the end, and there is no way to save them. In one fell swoop, North Korea can be destroyed, and the captives can be destroyed.
Our army, Yuan Gong in the south, Mao Shuai in the east, and the Mongolian Chahar Department in the north can also help, thinking that the allies, if Ningyuan and the Dongjiang army join forces again, it is not a bad move to take advantage of the weakness to smash the Yellow Dragon. ”
The military department was still in the book, and three were changed in the first year of the Apocalypse.
first Sun Juxiang, then Zhang Heming, a member of the Donglin Party, and now it is replaced by Cui Chengxiu, who flattered Wei Zhongxian and ascended to the throne.
This person Zhu Youxiao knows something, but he doesn't have great ability, but like other Wei parties, he has spent a lot of hard work in understanding the holy will.
At this time, Zhu Youxiao tilted his head slightly and asked, "What about the opinion of the military department?" ”
Asking the Ministry of War is naturally asking Cui Chengxiu.
The emperor did not refuse, and Cui Chengxiu also took a step forward and said:
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the strategy of Xiong Tingbi and Hong Chengchou is feasible, and this arrangement is extremely impressive, but Ning Yuan..."
"How is Ning Yuan?" Zhu Youxiao asked.
Cui Chengxiu shook his body and said: "Yuan Chonghuan, the commander of Ningyuan's army, and Sun Chengzong, a senator in Guangning, have always advocated sticking to Liaotu and expanding the army to recruit troops. ”
As he spoke, he took out a document and offered it:
"This is the fifth time that Yuan Chonghuan has asked for salary, saying that the Liao people will defend the Liao land, expand the Guanning Mabu army by 50,000, and build a fortification."
"The first four times, the ministers all rejected it..."
"You're doing a good job." Zhu Youxiao took this document, glanced at it a few times, and then went to the ground and said:
"Tell the household department, immediately send people to Tianjin at night, pay the ministers and supervise the payment, and Denglaike will receive the Dongjiang River, and there will be no delay."
Cui Chengxiu still had half a word in his throat, obviously lowered most of his voice, and said worriedly:
"Ning Yuan, please pay too, Your Majesty, look-"
"Give it to him."
Zhu Youxiao bowed his head, smiled like a warm spring breeze, and suddenly his eyes were like sharp blades, and he immediately lowered his head, and his slender fingers turned the ivory seal, and said:
"Yuan Chonghuan hopes for money, Ning Yuanbing also says that he can fight, he should have deep trust, Sun Chengzong is deeply concerned, and those who value him will not be wrong."
"The soldiers are innocent, and they are waiting for their salaries, and the military department should be reconsidered."
The words seem indifferent, but they hide a murderous intention.
The emperor held Sun Chengzong high, but he was not called "emperor", and between the lines, Yuan Chonghuan was Sun Chengzong's protégé.
also said that the reason why he relied on Yuan Chonghuan was because Sun Chengzong strongly recommended him.
Cui Chengxiu was frightened when he heard this, but he only agreed, and soon after leading the ministers to retreat, Wei Zhongxian cautiously stepped into the warm pavilion and asked in a low voice:
"Emperor, the assassin who assassinated the queen's mother last month, the slave maid has already been caught, and the slave maid has sorted out the results of the interrogation..."
Because of the experience of the last time, Wei Zhongxian was not in a hurry when he spoke, but stopped at the point and waited for the emperor to speak.
Zhu Youxiao closed his eyes for a while, and then sighed leisurely.
"Let it go, I'll see later."
Wei Zhongxian gently put the notebook on the imperial case, waved back the people, pinched the emperor's shoulders with no light or heavy force, and said with a wry smile:
"The emperor has personally conquered this time, but he has killed the slaves and maids miserably."
Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao was noncommittal and said:
"You're rough-skinned and thick-skinned, and you don't care about fame, and they say it's what they say. It's the people below, you have to watch, don't you are a factory minister, they dance hard. ”
Wei Zhongxian promised that he was going to go back and find out which child was pretending to be thirteen and recruiting himself black.
After thinking for a while, he said again:
"Bing Kedao has long been dissatisfied with Yuan Chonghuan's avoidance of war, the emperor has a lot of protection, and the emperor has long wanted to replace him, how can he pay Ning Yuan back this time?"
"First, the soldiers are innocent, and second..."Zhu Youxiao sneered and said, "It's too late!" ”
"When I returned to Beijing, I received a secret report from the Phi Dao military supervisor, saying that the slave chief had returned to his lair, was preparing troops and horses, and within a few days, the first attack was not Shenyang, that is, Liaoyang."
"Except for Ning Yuan, the rest of the soldiers are a little unable to move, and some of them are too late even if they preach immediately, and they can only rely on Yuan Chonghuan."
