As soon as Liu Jian's voice fell, even Xie Qian couldn't help but join in the fun: "I look at Ouyang Zhi, he is indeed old and serious, he will become a great weapon in the future, Your Majesty doesn't know, when he was in the Hanlin Academy, he also had a good reputation, and everyone praised him. ”

Li Dongyang smiled, and couldn't help but say: "He and Xinjian Boqing are the same father and son, this is the way of respecting the teacher, going to Jinzhou, the wall is clear, this is called loyalty." In order to prevent the army and the people from being poisoned by the Tatars, they made a decision at the right time, which is to love the people. Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness are all accounted for in him. ”

Ma Wensheng on the side, his face was still miserable, and he still felt scared in his heart, but if he thought about it carefully, fortunately, Ouyang Zhi was killed in Jinzhou, at least there were no more tragic consequences, otherwise...... The military department is even more difficult to blame.

So at this time, Ma Wensheng couldn't help but echo and said: "There is the style of an ancient minister. ”

A small Hanlin revision has been highly praised by so many bigwigs in the DPRK and China, which is considered a rarity.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but nodded, sure enough, he didn't look at the wrong person, this young man is indeed pleasing when he looks at it, especially the appearance of not being slow or humble.

Emperor Hongzhi said happily: "After this jade is carved, it will be beautiful." ”

Everyone's faces showed a look of relief, but ......

"......" Zhu Houzhao listened to everyone's words, he really wanted to die, he didn't have his own name, a guy who just acted on his own and the old side's orders, this is about to be praised by them, without the help of the palace, can that kid go to Jinzhou?

He secretly glanced at Fang Jifan, and Fang Jifan also looked blank.

And at this time, in Fang Jifan's heart, he was also a little jealous, sure enough, these scholars, as well as these civil officials, really don't have a good bird, the so-called things gather by like, people by groups, why can't I find much merit in Ouyang Zhi, in the end, isn't Ouyang Zhi just because he is Hanlin, and you guys?

Fang Jifan secretly slandered in his heart, and couldn't help but glance at Zhu Houzhao, he suddenly felt that he could understand Zhu Houzhao's feelings, so he smiled at Zhu Houzhao encouragingly.

Zhu Houzhao looked loveless, and secretly grinned with Fang Jifan.

"Of course...... Fang Qingjia...... It's also good. "Emperor Hongzhi did not forget to encourage Fang Jifan.

At this time, Fang Jifan didn't even have the heart to pat himself, but he just smiled reluctantly.

But the muscles of this smile are a little sore.

"Yes, Xinjian Bo is still ...... Not bad. Liu Jian also nodded with his chin.

Then, there was a brief silence in the warm pavilion.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly said: "Now, the Tatars have surrounded Jinzhou, and they should be rescued. ”

Everyone frowned, and Liu Jian took the lead in saying: "You can order the governor of Liaodong, transfer the elites of all departments in Liaodong, and go west to ......."

Ma Wensheng shook his head and said: "Mobilize the soldiers and horses of Liaodong to rescue, I'm afraid it's too late, the old minister thinks that he can order Duoyan Sanwei to outflank the Tatars, Duoyan Sanwei, who has been a snake and mouse at both ends recently, and is like leaving me immediately, but at this moment, the Tatars have encountered a predicament, and they are happy to fall into the Tatars, which is to drive the tiger and devour the wolf......"

Emperor Hongzhi frowned and did not say a word.

As a king of a country who cares about the subjects of the world, he knows one thing very well, every decision he makes determines the lives of millions of people in Liaodong.

Therefore, he appeared to be extremely cautious.

Emperor Hongzhi felt a little relieved, looked at Fang Jifan, and said, "Does the Fang Qing family have any suggestions?" ”

Unconsciously, he began to rely more and more on this Fang Qing's family.

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Let's let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say it." ”

This is to give the prince a chance.

The crown prince is among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, at least in the military, it belongs to the general existence of BUG, although it is not as good as Emperor Taizu Gao, and it may not be as good as the emperor above, but these two people are Wen Taowu strategy honed in countless wars, and Zhu Houzhao is a bull fork, hiding in the East Palace and pondering, and he can defeat the famous little prince in history on the battlefield.

Zhu Houzhao, who was wilting just now, suddenly came to his senses when he heard it, and was about to speak.

Emperor Hongzhi had a solemn face, and knocked on the imperial case fiercely and said: "I don't have to parrot the prince to repeat your proposition, you can say it yourself." ”

What......

The smile that Zhu Houzhao had managed to accumulate gradually disappeared, and the palace ...... Parroting? This is all Erchen's own opinion.

Pity...... No one listened to him.

Fang Jifan looked distressed, so he had no choice but to say: "The minister's suggestion is not to send troops to help. ”

"What ......"

Everyone was confused.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but say: "Do you want to abandon the 100,000 soldiers and civilians in Jinzhou?" ”

Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "The minister's protégé is in Jinzhou, and his safety is extremely concerned by the minister. ”

I tried my best to make it look like I was worried about Ouyang Zhi.

But in fact...... said that there is concern, but after all, there are many protégés, it seems to be ...... It's not too sad...... At least, people are still alive and well, and it's not time to be grief-stricken!

Well, I still have to be sad, after all, it's half of my son.

Fang Jifan was heartbroken: "But the current situation, hasn't Your Majesty seen it clearly?" These Tatars poured out of their nests, they were the most formidable soldiers and horses in the desert, and no one could be their edge. They are hungry now, they have reached the end of the road, one by one hungry eyes are green, at this time, they can not find food in the suburbs, this long winter is coming, among their tribes, there is not much food in stock, they are going to be hungry crazy, they are bound to want to take Jinzhou as soon as possible, only to take Jinzhou, only to grab food, there is food! ”

Under the attention of everyone, Fang Jifan took a deep breath before continuing: "Your Majesty, when people reach the end of the road, they are often the most ferocious and the most desperate, Jinzhou is besieged, the soldiers and civilians in this Jinzhou city still have tall walls to rely on, and they can hold on no matter what, but once the imperial court sends reinforcements, the imperial court not only sends soldiers and horses, but at the same time, it also sends countless baggage, the Tatars are afraid that they will not be able to find the enemy at this time, as long as there is an enemy, they can fight to the death with us, plundered our food, so the court must not give them the slightest chance. ”

"The current situation can only be delayed, the weather will get colder and colder, the wind and snow outside the pass will get bigger and bigger, Jinzhou City, must protect itself, instead of sending reinforcements, not to order Jinzhou City to hold on, as long as it is held, it can exhaust the last bit of strength of the Tatars. And the imperial court must not send out a single soldier, and must not give the Tatars the slightest opportunity to plunder. ”

"Please Your Majesty, let Jinzhou hold on!"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but want to shout, this palace also thinks like this, but unfortunately, Emperor Hongzhi doesn't seem to be interested in him, so he doesn't even look at him.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned, and then he looked at Liu Jian and the others.

And Liu Jian and others seem to be aware of the problem.

Yes, this is a group of trapped beasts, there is no other choice, such a desperate army horse, I am afraid that the imperial court will send reinforcements, at least they can choose to use the method they are best at in the wilderness, abandon the siege, to fight the reinforcements.

And once the other party is given the opportunity to plunder, then the consequences will be extremely terrible, even if the Ming army wins, what can it do?

But once defeated, the Tatars could replenish a large amount of grain and grass, and wouldn't this help the Tatars?

Emperor Hongzhi said worriedly: "This is the words of seeking the country, but it is just ...... If the imperial court is left alone in Jinzhou, this Jinzhou ......"

"This is also a way out of the way, the court does not want to give up the people in Jinzhou City, but now, the soldiers and civilians in Jinzhou City can indeed only rely on themselves, if they can hold on, the Tatars will suffer great damage, but if they can't hold on, there is nothing to be done."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed and said: "Over the years, Liaodong has been peaceful for more than ten years, and there are already signs of laxity in military equipment, I am really worried about them." ”

Fang Jifan thought for a while and said: "The minister's protégé is in Jinzhou, since His Majesty thinks that he is a very stable person, he has the imperial sword in Jinzhou, and he is also an envoy, maybe he can unite the city and consume with the Tatars, the minister does not dare to guarantee that he can hold on, but at least I believe that even at the last moment, he will never back down." ”

Ouyang Zhi......

The monarchs and ministers looked at each other.

Next, it is almost conceivable that a group of crazy Tatars will do everything possible to choose to attack the city, and once the court watches from the wall, this battle to defend the city will also be extremely tragic.

Ma Wensheng of the Ministry of War was most worried about the situation in Jinzhou, and he couldn't help but sigh: "A few days ago, a member of the Ministry of War inspected Jinzhou, saying that Jinzhou's armament was deserted, and a large number of military equipment had been hidden and not used for more than ten years, the whole of Jinzhou, is likely to be breached.

Tatars...... It's not easy to mess with.

After all, these Mongols inherited the original Temujin's way of fighting, especially after the start of the western expedition, the Mongols went all the way to the west, attacking cities, and there were already many ways to attack cities, not just good at field warfare.

Moreover, the people who are besieged are often prone to fluctuations, as long as the party defending the city collapses psychologically, then ...... Jinzhou is broken, and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Jinzhou will all be finished.
