Listening carefully to Xiong Tingbi's words, Zhu Youxiao also had confidence in his heart, and at the same time had some happiness.

Thankfully, I didn't mess around because of a small victory, otherwise things would have gotten really bad right now. Obviously, in the land of Liaodong, many things are different from what I imagined.

Many people think that the people here may resist Jiannu, after all, these people are from the Ming Dynasty.

That's not the case, the people here are so deeply intertwined that many times you can't tell who he is. Even if you can distinguish clearly, under such a harsh environment, everyone huddles together for warmth, and many times you have me and I have you.

The harsh natural environment, the continuous corruption of the government, and the weak geopolitical policy make the people here not have such a good attitude towards the Ming Dynasty and the country.

Maintaining their independence and being able to live is what they want. As for who rules it, it doesn't matter that much.

Jiannu did not learn Meng Yuan, but used another set of things very skillfully, that is, how to buy people's hearts.

Jiannu did a very good job in buying people's hearts, so the ruling foundation of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty was not solid.

In such a situation, Daming's steady progress is the key.

Only by improving the living environment of the common people, clarifying the officials in Liaodong, and giving benefits to the military households at the bottom can Liaodong be stabilized. As for how to change, or how to reform, then there is more knowledge in this.

For the time being, Zhu Youxiao has no such plan, there are still 3,000 nails in Daming's broken ship, and those who are sewing and mending can still move forward. If you smash the ship at this time and want to build a new one, it is likely that you will not be able to move forward.

So you have to maintain it first, wait until the wind is calm and then smash the boat, and then change the boat.

"There's a long way to go!" Zhu Youxiao looked at Xiong Tingbi and said slowly: "It's good that Aiqing has this awareness. Many people who come here to be officials are just because they don't have this awareness, and they always feel that they can be high. ”

When he said this, Zhu Youxiao was really touched.

Because the Ming Dynasty was not enough for the country later, to put it bluntly, the imperial court had no money, and the officials at that time would also find ways to open up sources and reduce expenditures, but the methods were more bizarre.

For example, canceling the post station and making people laid off can save a sum of money. The easiest way to do this is to raise taxes.

The so-called additional taxation is sometimes to increase the amount of taxation, such as asking the people to teach more; More of them are collected this year and next year, and at most they are even received ten or twenty years later.

Then they often said, "Let the people suffer for a few more years, and just get through it." ”

As a result, such policies were exploited, with officials expropriating and local gentry embezzling land with their might, leaving many people landless, displaced, and displaced.

This is why there were so many displaced people in the last years of the Ming Dynasty. In addition to natural disasters, there are more man-made disasters.

Xiong Tingbi can realize this, which is really rare. For the person he chose, Zhu Youxiao was even more satisfied.

Originally, Zhu Youxiao still felt that some people in the original history said that Xiong Tingbi was rude and irritable, and he was still a little worried in his heart. But after seeing Xiong Tingbi this time and listening to his words, Zhu Youxiao can be sure that Xiong Tingbi is a talented person.

The people of Liaodong are unstable, and the ruling foundation is also unstable, and even many generals think that they will not work with the Ming Dynasty, but with Jiannu, and whoever gives more benefits can do it with whomever they want.

With such a mindset, there is no way to fight. This is also the reason why Xiong Tingbi insists on defending, because there are still things to do, and if you fight, you won't have to do it.

Xiong Tingbi listened to Zhu Youxiao's words, and his heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, there are some deviant things in detail about what he said, and if this is to be spread, it can even be said to be a great rebellion.

Before going to Shanhaiguan, Xiong Tingbi had thought about this matter, should he tell His Majesty about this matter? Will Your Majesty be unhappy when you hear this?

He thought about it all the way, and he struggled all the way. If His Majesty is not happy, maybe his old bear will be disposed of, and everything he has done in Liaodong will be finished.

But after seeing Zhu Youxiao, Xiong Tingbi still couldn't hold back.

His Majesty treats him very sincerely, and eats and drinks with him, which is not a treatment that ordinary people can have.

In the face of such an emperor, Xiong Tingbi felt that there was no need to be selfish. If you don't say it, the consequences are severe. So Xiong Tingbi finished all these words.

The result was also good, His Majesty did not disappoint his old bear.

Looking at Xiong Tingbi, Zhu Youxiao said: "I know what you said, go back and work hard, I will support you." The days are still long, don't be too anxious, this is not a day's work, I am not a person who is anxious for quick success. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xiong Tingbi hurriedly stood up, bowed down and said, "With Your Majesty's support, the rest of the things will be easy to do." ”

If someone makes a fuss, Xiong Tingbi can also deal with it. As for the capital, if someone doesn't like him, with His Majesty here, they can't help him.

"Tell me about what's in front of you." Zhu Youxiao looked at Xiong Tingbi and asked, "What was handed over to you is very sure?" ”

After hearing this, Xiong Tingbi's face also became serious.

A few days ago, he had already received a secret order from Zhu Youxiao and knew what the emperor asked him to do. But he didn't expect that the emperor would come in person this time.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something unclear, and I don't know whether to ask or not." Xiong Tingbi looked at Zhu Youxiao and said cautiously.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Xiong Tingbi and said with a smile: "What should you ask and shouldn't ask?" If you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt to say it, although I won't call myself a king, just listen to what the courtiers say, listen to their advice, this can still be done. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xiong Tingbi agreed and asked, "Your Majesty asked the ministers to contain Huang Taiji, I don't know what the so-called thing is?" ”

Xiong Tingbi didn't know about this matter yet, and Zhu Youxiao didn't tell him.

However, Xiong Tingbi asked at this time, which was not surprising. After all, the emperor has already arrived in Liaodong, and this is obviously to do something.

And what the emperor told him to do, that was one of the points in this matter. In such a situation, if he still doesn't know anything, he may have done something bad inadvertently, so Xiong Tingbi will ask.

At the same time, he was also worried that if His Majesty didn't want to tell him about this matter, then it would be troublesome. When asking this question, Xiong Tingbi was very careful.

Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "I thought you were going to ask something, but it turned out that you were asking this." Then I'll tell you about it. ”

After saying this, Zhu Youxiao stood up directly and said to Chen Hong: "Hang up the map." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Hong agreed, and hung up the map with Wei Chao.

This map is naturally not unfamiliar, Xiong Tingbi knew at a glance that it was a map of Liaodong, and the surrounding situation was also drawn clearly and clearly, which was much better than his map.

Xiong Tingbi didn't expect His Majesty to have such a good thing, and he was instantly moved.

Xiong Tingbi was going to wait until His Majesty finished talking about things, and then he would take this map home.

Zhu Youxiao held the pole, pointed to the map and said to Xiong Tingbi: "You look at the location of Jiannu, to the east, to the west, to the south, to the north, they all need to fight with people. ”

"To the north, they need to go into the dense forested mountains, where it is not easy to walk. And in the mountains and forests, they can't go if they want to, there are people there. It's not that easy for them to get in. ”

Zhu Youxiao also refers to other tribes in that area. Among them, there is a more famous one that everyone has heard of in later generations, that is, the Oroqen people.

If Jiannu wanted to go north, he would have to pass through the territory of the Oroqen people. The mountains are high and the forests are dense, and you can't get out if you go in.

"To the south is the Ming Dynasty, and to the east is North Korea." Zhu Youxiao continued: "There is no way to go to the south, Jiannu has been blocked on the line between Liaoyang and Shenyang, and there has been no breakthrough so far. ”

"As for sending troops to North Korea, that's even more impossible. If Jiannu sends troops to Korea, the battle line will be lengthened; North Korea will also ask us for help, and we can take the opportunity to cut off the back road of Jiannu. Therefore, it is impossible for Jiannu to send troops to Korea. ”

"Then there can only be one goal, to send troops directly to the West. By this time, Jiannu could encroach on the Mongol tribes and strengthen himself. From what they did before, it can be seen that forming an alliance with Mongolia and making enemies of the Ming Dynasty together is what they are plotting for. Now they can't go south or east, so Mongolia in the west is even more important. ”

"If what I expected, they should force the Nekhalkha, Korqin, Duoyan Sanwei and other tribes to take refuge in themselves. If these Mongol tribes did not take refuge, they would be annexed by Jiannu. ”

"At this time, if we don't care about it, then Jiannu's strength will swell very much. Even if we are in charge of the Ming Dynasty and Jiannu is quietly carried out, it will be difficult for us to do it. So to think of a way in advance, this place must be held in the hands of the Great Ming, at least to cut off their hand to the west. ”

So Zhu Youxiao told him about his plan, looked at Xiong Tingbi and said, "So I need you to build up the momentum, press forward with the army, and make it look like you are going to attack Jiannu." The momentum should be huge, so that they dare not take a step beyond the thunder pool. ”

"Here, I want to provoke a war, and there is an alliance between Inner Khalkha and Korqin to launch a war of unification in southern Mongolia. Whether it is Duoyan Sanwei or other tribes, as long as they do not surrender or disobey, they will all be wiped out. ”

"I will support them in the shadows, providing them with weapons and what they need. By the way, you can also give them the equipment you have changed. In this vast land outside of Quang Ninh, there is not much need for power. ”

"Once this plan is completed, Lin Dan Khan can only be blocked to the west, and there is no way to go east. And Jiannu's hand stretched out to the west will also be cut off, and at that time, we will have a lot of room to turn around. ”
