Chapter 277: Buildable Materials
The eunuch listened to Liu Jian's instructions and left in a hurry.
And Liu Jian was still in the cabinet, with a little irritability in his eyes, and he was so anxious that several Hanlin who were on duty at night had been woken up in the middle of the night.
Liu Jian put his hands behind his back, looked up at the darkness outside the cabinet, and after a while, he settled down.
At this time, what should be done is ...... It should be steady.
Don't rush.
The target of the Tatars is Jinzhou, so the so-called Datong is really just a trick to hide people's eyes.
But more than a month ago, the Tatars sent military horses to attack Datong, and at the same time, from the reports from Daning, the Tatars' various actions were actually preparing a false impression for a surprise attack on Jinzhou, distracting their attention.
This is a long-planned and extremely meticulous military plan.
In Jinzhou, although the military strength of the Tatars was not detected, it now seems that in this battle, nine times out of ten, the Tatars are bound to win, and it must be led by the little prince, and the entire Tatar army poured out, with a huge plan to sweep the entire Jinzhou and even the entire Liaodong.
War...... It's already begun.
This little prince......
The little prince of Tartary, but it is not simple.
In the Tatar Ministry, the little prince is another name for the Great Khan of Tatars, and in previous years, there were frequent infighting within the Tatars, and the change of the little prince was extremely fast.
Since the Hongzhi Emperor ascended the throne, this little prince has begun to show his edge, he seems to have stabilized the Tatar interior, since he ascended the throne, there is no rebellion and seizure of power within the Tatars, so that in the first year of Hongzhi, the little prince asked for tribute, calling himself the Great Yuan Great Khan. The imperial court is tolerant and allowed.
Subsequently, the little prince asked for a mutual market, and the court also allowed it after a brief dispute.
After that, from the desert to get a lot of news, the Tatar Department took this opportunity to start a crazy attack on the Warat, seized a large number of pastures in the Warat, many Warat tribes have taken refuge in the Tatar Department, the Tatar Department is getting stronger and stronger.
Even, within the Duoyan tribe, there seem to be many tribes close to the Tatars.
Liu Jian couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this.
To a certain extent, the growth of the Tatar tribe, in addition to the cunning of the little prince, is not related to the appeasement of the Ming Dynasty?
In the entire desert, the Tatar Department and the Warat Department competed for power, in addition, there was also the Duoyan Department attached to the Ming Dynasty as a sword for the Ming court to balance the internal affairs of the desert.
Therefore, in the past few decades, in addition to using the Duoyan Ministry, the imperial court has been supporting the Tatar Ministry, and even this Tatar Ministry calls itself the Great Yuan Great Khan, and the imperial court still gives preferential treatment.
The reason for this is not so much the short-sightedness of the Hongzhi monarchs and ministers, but rather the firm position within the Ming Dynasty.
Warat, after all, is the sworn enemy of the Ming Dynasty, the change of the civil fort, how many Ming nobles died in battle, Emperor Yingzong, but also for the capture of the Warat Department, so in the treatment of the entire desert affairs, the imperial court is almost to eliminate the Wara as the first priority, even if the balance of power in the desert is unbalanced, the Tatars are getting stronger and stronger, and the Warat is weak, the entire desert, there are signs of the Tatar Department unifying the desert, the court has never changed this position.
But within a few years, the Tatars with stiff wings invaded all sides, plundered many people and food, and now, they have poured out of their nests and attacked Liaodong.
This...... I really didn't expect it.
Suddenly, Liu Jian's eyes widened, and he couldn't help muttering: "The strong wall is clear, but I don't know how the strong wall is clear in Jinzhou, how is it going now?" ”
Taking a deep breath, Liu Jian smiled bitterly in his heart, a few days ago, almost everyone was arguing about Ouyang Zhi's Jianbi Qingye in Jinzhou, and now, he is afraid that Jianbi Qingye is not thorough enough.
Half an hour later, the eunuch came in a hurry, bringing with him a report from the military headquarters.
This is all the news that Jinzhou has reported to the military department, and from a month ago to a few days ago, there were as many as seven or eight copies.
Liu Jian eagerly took the report, read it one by one, and the more he looked at it, the more shocking he felt.
Obviously, it's not so much ...... This is a report, it is better to say that this is a complaint against Ouyang Zhi and Liu Jin within Jinzhou.
In order to clear the wilderness, the two of them can be described as frenzied, and they are never allowed to leave a grain of grain in the wild, or even a large amount of grain that cannot be taken away, and all of it will be burned. All the people must move, and those who refuse to move will be killed. All livestock, cattle and horses, and even ...... It also includes growing grain, and there is nothing left.
Even the iron cannons of the guards outside Jinzhou City and some iron tools for military purposes can be buried on the spot if they cannot be taken away.
In the whole of Jinzhou, there are almost complaints about these two guys from Beijing.
In order to seize the time, Ouyang Zhi even issued an order that those who did not meet the deadline should be investigated for the local armor chief, and if it was a military guard from all over the country, a hundred or a thousand households would be directly investigated.
And because of the urgency of time, Jinzhou City did not have time to accept such a large number of people, in just a few days, along the way, there were 39 people who died, and when they arrived in Jinzhou, more than 100 people froze to death.
If it were in normal times, what Ouyang Zhi and Liu Jin did like this would indeed be enough for people to die with spit.
But now, Liu Jian really breathed a sigh of relief, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Ouyang Zhi...... Acting well is a material that can be made. ”
Liu Jian is heart, he can't help but sigh.
If it weren't for this resolute fortification and clearing, I am afraid that by now, the entire outside of Jinzhou City would have already fallen into hell on earth.
A Jinzhou, not only Jinzhou City is so simple, you know, there, almost more than eighty percent of the military and civilian population are also in the wild, and the Tatars are so surprised, in the case of surprise, this means that the grain of hundreds of people will become the military food of the Tatars, countless people's cattle and horses will become the meat of the Tatars, and countless men, women and children, will also become pigs and dogs in the eyes of the Tatars.
This not only strengthened the Tatars and provided them with enough military supplies for the next step to seize Jinzhou and even sweep the entire Liaodong, but also caused a shock in the entire Beijing Division, with unimaginable consequences.
Right now...... At least it's not as bad as it gets.
And among them, the most important figure is Ouyang Zhi.
As for Liu Jin......
Liu Jian automatically ignored it, although everyone was surnamed Liu, but such eunuchs were not included in Liu Jian's consideration.
At this time, Liu Jian looked up at the Zhonghanlin on duty, who were still standing in the corner, waiting for Liu Gong to speak in a little panic.
Liu Jian shook his head involuntarily, the Hanlin who can enter the cabinet is naturally the best in the Hanlin, but now it seems that they are still several orders of magnitude behind Ouyang Zhi.
Of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Fang Jifan...... Now they have been proven right.
Liu Jian finally cheered up and said in a deep voice: "Send someone into the inner palace immediately to report this matter!" ”
"Also, inform Li and Xie Ergong, as well as inform all ministries and departments, and send people to Zhan Shifu......" Liu Jian paused here, comfortable, it was originally a terrible thing, but now it has been eliminated, he still has these Jinzhou officials complaining about Ouyang Zhi in his hand, and said excitedly: "Go to Fang's house by the way, inform Fang Jifan, early in the morning, immediately enter the palace and discuss the opportunity!" ”
………………
At this time, in the queen's bedroom in the harem, it was very quiet.
When Emperor Hongzhi was at night, he didn't sleep well, and Empress Zhang was worried that he wouldn't sleep well, so she asked for absolute silence in Kunning Palace, even if it was a serving eunuch, and never made footsteps.
Occasionally, Emperor Hongji would grind his teeth and dream.
In the babbling, it was probably some disaster or chaos.
Therefore, Empress Zhang's sleep was also a little bad, but fortunately, even if she was awakened by Emperor Hongzhi, she never made a noise and still pretended to sleep.
But tonight, there were small footsteps outside the hall.
The footsteps were already very light, but they still reached the dormitory.
Soon, an inaudible voice came from outside: "Bold, this time ......"
Another voice said anxiously, "Something's wrong...... The Tatars attacked Jinzhou! ”
All of a sudden, Emperor Hongzhi, who was still asleep, suddenly sat up.
Woke up.
He didn't know if it was a dream, he stroked his forehead, and had a terrible headache.
And the sound outside is still very clear.
"What Jinzhou, what can't be said tomorrow, it disturbs the saint, you don't know how to die."
"Father-in-law Zhang, Jinzhou...... It is the gateway to Liaodong, and the Tatars are pouring out of the nest, and the stakes are very high, if the slaves and maids are not in love, where can they dare to ......"
Emperor Hongzhi had already jumped up, and seemed to be afraid of waking up Empress Zhang, so he glanced back.
Empress Zhang had already been awakened by his dreams and snoring, but at this time, she was lying under the tent and pretending to be asleep, as if she was afraid that this would attract the guilt of Emperor Hongzhi.
Emperor Hongzhi breathed a sigh of relief, he hurriedly got up and put on a robe, but found that he didn't know how to dress at all, or wore it vaguely, and then hurriedly walked out of the dormitory.
Outside the dormitory, two eunuchs were whispering, and when they saw Emperor Hongzhi slowly coming out of the dormitory, they were immediately frightened.
The two of them looked frightened, hurriedly bowed down, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and were about to ask for mercy.
Emperor Hongzhi said calmly: "Silence, go to the side hall to speak." ”
In the side hall.
Emperor Hongzhi opened the report, and then his face turned pale: "Tatars...... Hateful! ”
poured out of the nest, which was enough to arouse the worry of Emperor Hongzhi.
And then, his brows slowly stretched, and he couldn't help but say: "The prince and Fang Jifan, as expected, Ouyang Zhi did a good job in Jinzhou, if it weren't for them, Liaodong would be in danger!" Swing ......... Go to the warm pavilion and summon the minister to the palace overnight. Jinzhou is still under the iron hooves of Tatar, and it is urgent! ”
Emperor Hongzhi said it, but he didn't seem to think it was enough: "Summoning the prince and Fang Jifan!" ”
