Chapter 38: The Woman
"Your Majesty, what a victory!"
Song Sheng, the chief inspector on duty at the Military Aircraft Department, walked in quickly: "Our army landed in Hyogojin, the Japanese army was defeated, the Osaka defenders fled, and the Marquis of Licheng has reorganized his troops and horses, and wants to take the capital of the Japanese state - Kyoto!" ”
Seeing that Song Sheng's beard was shaking with excitement, Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but smile dumbly: "Old general, it's hard work, please sit down!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Yunwen took the fold and looked at it, and found that Song Sheng had said it very comprehensively, only some details had been omitted.
For example, Arutai led the cavalry to pursue to Osaka, and found that Hosokawa Yorimoto's son Hosokawa Mitsumoto had arrived first, but Hosokawa Mitsumoto did not dare to engage the Ming army, burned Osaka Castle, and fled straight to Kyoto.
As for the people who killed Hosokawa Lai Yuan, Zhu Yunwen didn't care very much, what he cared about was the number of casualties, the cross-sea expedition, what he was most worried about was that the loss was too great, which would affect the confidence of the people of the Ming Dynasty in the expedition, and now this result is very good!
"Excellent! Very good! ”
Zhu Yunwen stood up happily and paced around the room.
Suddenly, he turned around, looked at Song Sheng, and said, "Old general, our army has won a great victory, how should we praise the soldiers in front?" ”
"This," Song Sheng had already made a good draft of this question on the way here, so he was confident at the moment, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, although the Marquis of Licheng won a great victory in Hyogojin, the Japanese kingdom is still there, so at this moment, you must not encourage the arrogance of the front-line soldiers, and you should issue an order to order the soldiers in front to be cautious and careful, and not to fight in vain; As for the reward, now you can first promote the rank of front-line commander, and also include the Japanese who have made military achievements, so that you can not only praise the front-line soldiers, but also subdue the hearts of the Japanese people. ”
"As for the general's reward, the old minister thinks that it is better to wait for the occupation of the Wa Kingdom, and then recall the Beijing Division to reward him!"
"That's it," Zhu Yunwen found that he was a little overexcited, but at the same time, he also found that Song Sheng was indeed an old man who was serious and did not panic, and he was a talent worth reusing: "Okay, what the old general said is very true, like this," Zhu Yunwen thought for a while and said: "Old general, you are responsible for this matter, according to the list of meritorious people reported by Sheng Yong, draw up a reward specification, report to me, and I can approve it." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty for your trust!"
"It's okay," Zhu Yunwen waved his hand: "The matter of attacking the Japanese is going well, and I am very relieved." Now, I have something to discuss with you. ”
"This is the secret fold of Zhang Fu, the capital of Gansu, take a look!"
According to the new folding system, the literary folding is sent to the Wenyuan Pavilion through the Department of General Administration; The martial arts fold is sent directly to the military aircraft office, but in addition, there is also a kind of secret fold, which is a privilege to be sent directly to the emperor, without going through the Wenyuan Pavilion and the military aircraft office.
At present, there are only a dozen people who have this kind of secret power, and Zhang Fu is one of them.
Song Sheng took the secret fold and looked at it, pondered for a while, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, this Zhang Fu, the old minister doesn't understand, but his idea, the old minister thinks, has a certain feasibility." ”
"Well, go on!"
"The Hami Zhuwei west of Jiayuguan, the Chagatai Khanate further west, and even the eastern part of the Timurid Khanate are all the Western Regions of the Han and Tang Dynasties in the past, and they are the homeland of our China, so Zhang Fu's strategy to drive the tiger and devour the wolf has a certain feasibility."
"Lao Chen has been in the northwest for more than ten years, and has some understanding of the western provinces, since the rise of the Timurid Khanate, the Chagatai Khanate has been persecuted, and has the heart to resist, but its strength is not good, and it has to endure until now."
"And the northwestern Warat, with strong strength, with 100,000 cavalry, if they can unite and start a war against the Timurid Khanate, the odds of victory are relatively large."
"It's just that the old minister is a little worried, whether it is Warat or Chagatai Khanate, if they become strong, it is not a good thing for the stability of my western region."
"In addition, will Warat really abandon the steppe and conquer the Timurid Khanate in the west?"
"This," Zhu Yunwen thought for a while, and said, "I still believe in Zhang Fu's ability, and I also have a certain degree of confidence in the Wara West Expedition." ”
"Actually, my real target is the Golden Family of Mobei!"
"Huh?" Song Sheng woke up like a dream, it seems that this is not what Zhang Fu meant, it is what His Majesty meant.
Song Sheng's brain teaser was quick, thinking about the information from all sides, he stood up for a long time, and bowed down: "Your Majesty is far-sighted, and the old minister admires it!" ”
"Hehe," Zhu Yunwen smiled slightly: "Then the old general agrees?" ”
"Yes, it's just, it's just," Song Sheng hesitated for a moment, but didn't speak.
"What's wrong? Old general, is there anything wrong? ”
"No," Song Sheng gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, Zhang Fu is only the capital of Gansu, with the rank of major general, are there some people who speak lightly?" Is it not enough to win the trust of the Warat and Chagatai Khanates? ”
"Oh, that's a problem!"
Zhu Yunwen thought for a while, and said categorically: "This matter, Da Shen,"
"The minister is here!"
"Zhang Fujun defended the border, made outstanding meritorious contributions, was specially promoted to the rank of lieutenant general, and coordinated all affairs in the northwest."
"In addition, he ordered Fang Bin, the squire of the military department, to be the minister of the Qincha, to govern Shaanxi and Gansu, and at the same time to be in charge of the affairs of the Warat and Chagatai khanates."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty," Song Sheng arched his hand: "The old minister thinks that there is an overlap between the responsibilities of Zhang Fu and Fang Bin, if there is a dispute, who should be the main one?" ”
“......”
Zhu Yunwen was silent for a while, and said, "Zhang Fu is the main one, but Fang Bin has the responsibility of persuasion." ”
"Well, Your Majesty Shengming!"
......
Warat, on the shores of Lake Xihai.
"Let me in! Let me in! I want to see the Great Chief! I want to see the Great Chief! ”
Eseku, who was deliberating in the big tent, raised his head with a sullen face, and the generals present also looked at each other, but no one spoke.
"Okay, let's get here today, you guys go down first!"
"Yes! Big Boss! ”
The noisy woman at the door was Samur, the daughter of Elberke, the ex-wife of Mahamu, who had surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and now the concubine of the great chief of Warat, Eseku.
Samur's eyes were red, his eyes were full of tears, his hair was scattered, and he looked helplessly at the generals who came out.
When the generals saw Samur, they all bowed down, but they didn't say anything, only a few people secretly glanced at Samur, and Samur nodded slightly.
"Princess, the big chief, please come in!"
"Okay!"
Samur cut his hair, wiped his face slightly, and under the guidance of the guards, entered the big tent, and at the head of the big tent sat the Eseku.
Eseku is only thirty-five or sixteen years old this year, but gray hair has appeared on his sideburns, which is obviously caused by overwork.
"What are you doing here?"
Hearing Eseku's cold voice, Samur's heart tightened, and he hurriedly saluted: "Great chief, I heard that the army is going westward, is that so?" ”
"Yes, the king is deliberating the matter with the generals."
This king? Where is this called? Samur was in a trance for a moment, and immediately understood that this was the "King Gongrui" canonized by the Ming Dynasty, and couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart: "Big Chief, you are the big leader of Warat, the son-in-law of the Golden Family, why do you want to accept the canonization of the Ming Dynasty?" ”
"They used to be slaves of our Mongols!"
"Hahaha, slave?" Eseku looked at Samur and suddenly laughed: "So, the Golden Family, Temujin, isn't it a vassal of the Jurchens?" ”
Yes!
Samur took two steps back in surprise, she didn't expect Eseku to say such a thing, this attitude, this tone shocked her.
Samur was silent for a while, and then said, "Great Chief, is this all Wang Xing's idea?" ”
"Shut up!" Eseku interrupted Samur's words: "Wang Xing is the master of the country of Warat, his status is respected, and he is only under this king, who gives you the courage to call him by his name?" ”
Samur was stunned for a moment, rubbed his hands involuntarily, bowed down, and said in a low voice: "It's the concubine's mistake!" ”
"But," Samur raised his head, "Has the big chief ever thought that the national teacher is Han, so he must be biased towards Han." Now the Ming people are aggressive towards the Great Khan's headquarters, and the Great Khan has written many times, hoping that Warat will advance eastward and work together to deal with the Ming State, but they have been stopped by the national teachers. ”
"Didn't the Great Leader think about the joints?"
"If the Han headquarters is defeated, then Warat will inevitably be lonely, once the Ming army controls the eastern grassland, will it let go of the western grassland?"
"When the time comes, how will Warat deal with himself?"
"Please forgive the concubine for saying bluntly, the national teacher still agreed to go east before, and it was a letter that made him change his mind, and the concubine suspected that the national teacher and the Ming State conspired together, which would be detrimental to Dawara!"
Looking at Samur's beautiful and stubborn eyes, as well as the tears flowing from the corners of his eyes, Eseku couldn't help but feel distressed, and he was silent for a while and said: "Samur, things are not as you imagined, there is no doubt about the national teacher's loyalty to Wara, he is all for the good of Wara!" ”
"But why? Can the Grand Boss make it clear? ”
Samur insisted: "The concubine only knows that the great leader and the great khan will benefit both sides if they join together, and divide them will do two harms, so why should the national teacher be stubborn and drag Warat into the abyss?" ”
After a long time, Eseku sighed and said, "Samur, you go out first, this king must think about it!" ”
"Okay," Samur bowed, turning and walking out.
When the guards raised the curtain, Samur turned around and said: "The fate of the wisest chieftain, Warat, and even the whole of Mongolia, is in your thoughts, and your actions are incomprehensible to your concubines, and many generals are equally incomprehensible!" ”
Samuel's voice was so loud that many people inside and outside the tent could hear it.
Eseku was stunned for a moment, waved his hand and said, "You go out!" ”
Samur glanced at Eseku with a strange expression, turned and went out
