Seeing that the apocalypse was a little confused, Sun Chengzong explained further, what he meant was that whether it was the Jurchens or the Mongols who begged for a life on the grassland, they had wolf nature, and which side of them was to seek skin with the tiger and not end well, and the fact that the Song Dynasty was destroyed has proved this Apocalypse. If Daming wants to get long-term security, in the short term, he must think about how to defend independently, of course, there is also a saying that the best defense is offense, which is a long-term plan. To think more long-term, we must think about how to annex or assimilate the people on the grassland, just like in the Han and Tang dynasties, either to be annexed and assimilated, or to be eliminated and driven away.

Tianqi listened to Sun Chengzong's explanation and looked at the reactions of other people, and asked softly: "Look at your appearance, it should all mean this, the only difference is whether you need to stab the Jurchens in the back at a critical moment." In fact, there is no need to rush to decide this issue now, I think we should be ready to stab the knife first, and when the time comes, if I feel that it is advantageous to start, I will immediately give Huang Taiji two or three blows, and if I don't feel the need to tear my face, I will not move, after all, we are still in the negotiation stage nominally. What's next for you? Is it a concentrated defense or a scattered defense? Is it dedicated to defending or not forgetting to attack? ”

Sun Chengzong said: "At the beginning of the year, it was mentioned that there would be several more military regions in the country like the current three major military regions, but then the emperor fell ill and did not mention it again, I wonder if the emperor still remembers it now?" ”

Tianqi thought for a while and said: "I have a little impression, I remember that I sent a letter to Qin Liangyu in Sichuan at that time, saying that I would ask her to be the military commander of the southwest region, but I can't remember what happened later, did she agree or not?" ”

Sun Chengzong sighed and said, "It seems that the emperor did forget a lot of things due to illness later, so the minister will tell the emperor again." According to the previous considerations, the Ming only needed to defend Xuanfu, Datong, Jizhou, Liaodong and other four places, that is to say, the main threat of the Ming Dynasty came from the Mongols in the north, and the Mongols who defended these four places could not enter the Ming Dynasty, which was safe. But now the actual situation has changed, Liaodong has lost most of it and was forced to retreat to Ningyuan to hold on, Jizhou has strengthened after a lot of preparations, especially the two new side walls of the Duoyan Department have been repaired a lot safer, but the south and east sides are a little messy, and they need to pay attention to and eliminate hidden dangers. ”

Wang Zaijin said at this time: "The chaos in the east is not small, the red-haired ghost ship that occupies Taiwan is very fierce, and I have gone to the Bohai Naval Region several times to suppress it in vain, but fortunately, although the red-haired ghost is powerful, the number of ships and people is not large, otherwise it is really unthinkable to imagine the apocalypse." ”

Gao Di also said at this time: "Guizhou's luxury Chongming and An Bangyan are not easy to exterminate, not to mention the high terrain there is still a lot of miasma, but unfortunately Cai Fuyi Cai died at a young age." ”

Sun Chengzong nodded and said: "This is the reason for the establishment of military zones in many places across the country, we not only have to take care of the north but also think about the south, there are red-haired ghosts in the east to occupy our sea frontier, and there are also chaotic people gathering in the west, so we finally decided to establish seven military zones in Daming." The north and south capitals are the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, and it is necessary to establish military zones in these two places for defense and protection, and whether it is the transfer of money and grain or the transportation of troops, these two places are the key places, Beijing must have the backbone, which is equivalent to the backbone of the people, at this time, the establishment of four military regions in the four corners of the southeast, northwest and northwest to determine the four corners, plus the Bohai Naval Region to consolidate the maritime frontier, this is the origin of the seven military regions. ”

Tianqi asked: "I have a little impression, it seems that in the end, I asked Zhang Jing'an and Zhao Shujiao to go to the south to reorganize and train the army, and it seems that Liu Xingzuo, who returned to Toucheng, assisted Yuan Keli and Lord Yuan in training, I don't know what happened later?" ”

Sun Chengzong said: "In the south, because Lord Cai died of illness, Lord Gao returned to Beijing due to illness, Zhu Xieyuan, Governor Zhu's father died, and went home to defend the system. Now I was about to ask the emperor if he would take Zhu Xieyuan back and let him lead people to put down the rebellion in the south, after all, he had some prestige among those general soldiers∝ Liangyu Qin general soldiers had accepted the emperor's invitation, but she had a condition that the local people should be appointed as magistrates, saying that in this way they could reassure the local people, saying that the Miao and Yi people were afraid of being bullied. ”

Tianqi shook his head and said: "Zhu Xieyuan can be used at any time, but Qin Liangyu's request is a bit difficult, the purpose of abolishing the Tusi system is to break down local barriers, they are all locals who are officials, who dares to guarantee that there will be no more characters like Xuan Chongming and An Bangyan?" How did the gentleman reply to her? ”

Sun Chengzong said: "The minister said that because the emperor was ill, he could not decide whether to agree to her request for the time being, and he would definitely give her an answer when the emperor recovered." The minister means to agree to her request for the time being, but not all the locals as officials, just like there are military commanders in the army and there must be a direct supervisor of the imperial court, and the dual official system is also implemented in the place where the ethnic groups live together. Originally, this was a political minister who shouldn't talk too much, but because it involves military affairs, he has this suggestion, I don't know what the emperor thinks? ”

Tianqi listened and nodded slowly: "Sir, this method is good, Qin Liangyu is a Miao person who knows the people's feelings, and it is normal for the Miao and Yi people to have such a situation, anyway, the whole country is gradually implementing the dual official system of the governor and the supervisor in parallel. Whether it is a local or a foreigner, the matter that one person has the final say is not allowed to appear again, and the local government must also separate military affairs from government affairs, and the Tusi system of managing the army and the people must be resolutely abolished in places where ethnic groups live together. ”

Seeing Sun Chengzong nodding, Tianqi asked, "Is Zhang Jing'an still in Guizhou now?" I remember that it seems that Zhao Shujiao has returned, and a while ago I heard that he had settled his soldiers and family members by the canal, and selected some children from them to march, and also put forward a slogan saying what he dedicated himself to his children and grandchildren, which made people hear very interesting. How are the Guizhou and Liaodong sides training now? Will they be able to meet the all-out defensive requirements that Mr. started to call now? ”

Sun Chengzong said: "Zhang Jing'an is still in Guiyang, and the ministers in Guizhou have not seen it with their own eyes, but when Zhu Xieyuan went home to defend the system, they were able to cooperate with each other tacit understanding, and the effect was good. ”

Seeing the apocalypse, Yuan Keli said: "General Liu always thinks about how to fight back to Liaodong, saying that many people in Liaodong are looking forward to the Ming army to rescue them, and he also said that the people's hearts are like water, if it drags on for a long time, the people of Liaodong in the future will not know that they are subjects of the Ming Dynasty." After being persuaded a few times, he did not mention it again, but some soldiers reported that General Liu was staring east on the hill when he was free, and he sat for several hours. ”

Tianqi listened to Mo Ran, at this time Wang Yongguang said: "Not only Guizhou and Liaodong, Ma Shilong was also training after being transferred from Shanhaiguan to Jiayuguan, it is said that he often told people that he had walked through the Great Wall in the north of the Ming Dynasty, and he wanted to make the places he walked through become impregnable, so that everyone felt uplifted when they heard it." Last year, the emperor set a death row prisoner, as long as he repented and was not unforgivable, he could not be executed, and all of them would be sent to the northwest region to live again and not return to his hometown for the rest of his life. ”

Tianqi said: "In this case, let's talk about how to determine people in the end, if you want to think in the long run, you must not set the position by the person, but let people adapt to the position, otherwise it will be very troublesome to change the person." ”

Sun Chengzong said: "The emperor reminded me well, the ministers and others think about it in this way, because the road is far away, so we thought about the security of the army after its establishment at the beginning, this security is not to say their own security, but to say that they will pose a threat to the security of the Ming Dynasty itself." The Han and Tang dynasties were both prosperous, but they were all defeated because of the warlords' separation, and the ministers did not want to have chaotic ministers and thieves like Dong Zhuo and An Lushan in the future, in which case the ministers would die and could not be redeemed. ”

Apocalypse nodded and asked, "Sir, what do you think?" ”

Sun Chengzong said: "After deliberation, the ministers and others believed that if the people leading the troops did not have different intentions, they should do four things, one is to directly supervise, the second is to supervise each other, the third is to divide their powers, and the fourth is to take turns to exchange. The first point of direct supervision is the emperor's original request for the imperial history supervision system, the first supervision of the army is generally used in the palace eunuchs, although the eunuchs are close to the emperor, but there are not many loyal and capable. In the past, the eunuchs of this dynasty were too incompetent and treacherous like Wang Zhen and Liu Jin, and they were really not worthy of entrusting them with heavy responsibilities, and it seems that the emperor still has a unique vision. ”

Tianqi shook his head and said: "It's not that I have a unique vision, I think from the perspective of education, I am born to be similar, and the reason for the different temperament and habits is the environment and education. Eunuchs generally have not read any books, and their temperament is cloudy, and they will only think about themselves and small groups to take on big responsibilities, and civil officials are all scholars, and the scholars have received the education of loyalty and love for the people since childhood, and their loyalty should be very high after decades of education. Of course, there will occasionally be one or two treacherous and evil ministers, but it is generally because they are not restricted and slowly move their sex, and I still have experience and understanding in this regard. ”

Everyone here is a scholar, many of them are still two Jinshi, and seeing that the apocalypse admires the loyalty of the scholar so much, they are all enthusiastic in their hearts, and they are very useful. Sun Chengzong nodded and continued: "With the loyal overseers close to the supervision, the chief officer who leads the troops will be jealous when he does things, and he will not be so unscrupulous and do whatever he wants. In addition to direct supervision, the second is mutual supervision, that is, the army is divided into two parts, one part is the main defense and the other part is the main attack, and the two cooperate with each other in wartime, but in peacetime they supervise each other, so as to prevent one side from doing foolish things. ”
