Although Zhang Bin is in his thirties, he is no longer the youthful and frivolous he was back then, but when he sees a stunning young woman like Zhang Yan, he still can't help but feel a little flustered.

Zhu Cihong didn't pay attention to the ambiguous expressions of the two, he pulled Zhang Bin to the door of the study with one hand, and stretched out the other hand to pull Zhang Yan, and shouted excitedly: "Aunt Huang, you are also here, listen to the master tell the story of the war against Jiannu." ”

Zhang Yan was pulled by him, and walked involuntarily to the study, looking at Zhang Bin next to her, her face couldn't help showing a hint of ruddy, and her shy appearance made Zhang Bin more and more confused.

He was pulled to the desk by Zhu Cihong, and when he saw the map of Liaodong on the desk, he finally came back to his senses, the crown prince Zhu Cihong seemed to be good and had never learned to read maps and analyze the battle situation, so it seemed that he should teach him well.

He cleaned up his mood, helped the prince onto the chair in front of the desk, moved the chair and put it on the prince's left hand side, and invited the queen Zhang Yan to sit down, then stood on the prince's right hand, pointed to the corner of the northeast corner of the map and asked: "Hong'er, do you know the origin of the name Jiannu?" ”

How could Zhu Cihong know this, he usually learned some of the Four Books and Five Classics, including Zhang Bin, who had never taught him other aspects of knowledge, he asked curiously: "Master, why are they called Jiannu?" ”

Queen Zhang Yan also showed curiosity on her face, in fact, in some aspects, she is inferior to Zhu Cihong, she is from a peasant family, she stayed in her hometown before entering the palace, she has never been anywhere, after entering the palace, she has stayed in the palace, or she has never been anywhere, she is more curious about the outside world than Zhu Cihong.

Zhang Bin saw that the two of them showed curiosity, and couldn't help but say proudly: "The predecessor of Jiannu was the Jurchen, and the predecessor of the Jurchen was the Heishui Jian, from the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the Sumo Jinya clan gradually dispersed, and one of them evolved into the Jurchen, and the Jurchen was divided into many branches, one of which was the Jurchen Wanyan clan in the Song Dynasty and also established the Jin State, that is, the Jin State of Yue Fei's resistance to the Jin. “

A door of history slowly opened in front of Zhu Cihong, his eyes shone with the light of curiosity, and he listened with relish, but when he heard that Yue Fei resisted gold, his face suddenly changed, and he said with a worried face: "Master, the story of Yue Fei's resistance to gold, Senior Brother Zilong told me that Yue Fei was wronged by Song Gaozong and Qin Hui in the end, and died tragically in Fengbo Pavilion, it is really a strange injustice through the ages!" I heard Senior Brother Zilong say, that damn Xue Guoguan actually wanted to follow Qin Hui's move, betray the country for glory, wronged the master, and let his father kill the master, is this true? ”

"Ahh , Zhang Yan on the side heard this, and couldn't help but lose her face, Zhu Cihong is young and ignorant, but she has become extremely sharp in the palace struggle, Chongzhen's suspicion of Zhang Bin She has long seen it, if someone adds fuel to the fire, Chongzhen may really kill the killer!

When Zhang Bin saw Zhang Yan being scared like this, he couldn't help but say proudly: "Don't worry, Hong'er, that's just a rumor, then Xue Guo wants to learn from Qin Hui, and he must have Qin Hui's ability, the master is not a military general like Yue Fei, and the master is also the second assistant of the cabinet, he wants to frame the master, and the master will not sit still." ”

When Zhang Yan heard this, she glanced at Zhang Bin with a little deep meaning, although she didn't know how to govern the country, but she still had a little study of intrigue, the most feared thing about the struggle in the palace was that people would stab you in the back, if you don't know it, then you will die!

Listening to this tone, Zhang Bin should have been prepared, if he had been prepared, with Zhang Bin's ability, he should be fine, and her hanging heart slowly relaxed.

Zhu Cihong said indignantly: "This traitor dares to frame the master, and when I succeed to the throne, I will punish him of the nine clans!" ”

Zhang Bin touched his head dotingly, and admonished: "Hong'er, the way of governing the country is not the way of killing, you can't punish him for framing his master, but if he betrays the country, it is not too much to punish him for the nine clans, okay, let's not talk about this for now, let's continue to talk about Jiannu." ”

After that, he pointed to the map and said: "This Jin country was destroyed by the Southern Song Dynasty and Mengyuan together, the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed by Mengyuan, and Mengyuan was destroyed by my Ming Dynasty. Later, the Jurchen tribes gradually merged into the three major tribes of Jianzhou Jurchen, Haixi Jurchen and Savage Jurchen, the most powerful of which was the Jianzhou Jurchen, Jianzhou Wei, Jianzhou Left Guard, and Jianzhou Right Guard gradually became the three most powerful forces of the Jurchens, and Nurhachi, who confronted the Ming Dynasty after the establishment of the Jin, was the hereditary commander of the Jianzhou Left Guard. Because it was originally a vassal of the Ming Dynasty and originated from the three guards of Jianzhou, therefore, I called it Jiannu by the Ming Dynasty. “

Hearing this, Zhu Cihong couldn't help but be surprised: "The slave chief Nurhachi turned out to be just a hereditary commander of the left guard of Jianzhou, doesn't that mean that at the beginning, he had a total of more than 5,000 households, less than 50,000 people!" ”

Zhang Bin nodded and sighed: "Yes, even if Jiannu has developed to less than 200,000 households until now, the total number of people is less than two million, and in terms of population, they are equivalent to a larger state capital in the Ming Dynasty." ”

There are less than two million people in total, and the Ming Dynasty who can fight has been defeated and retreated again and again, almost losing the entire Liaodong, how is it possible!

Zhu Cihong asked in disbelief: "Master, is there really less than two million Jiannu, then why can they fight my Daming Dynasty and retreat again and again, and almost lost the entire Liaodong?" Are all Jiannu three-headed and six-armed, brave and invincible! ”

Zhang Bin shook his head and sighed: "How can Jiannu have three heads and six arms, they are the same as us, two arms and one head, the reason why the disaster of Jiannu is getting worse is not how powerful Jiannu itself is, but mainly because of Daming's own problems." ”

Zhu Cihong couldn't help but ask: "Is there something wrong with Daming itself?" What's wrong with Daming? ”

Zhang Bin sighed and said leisurely: "When the slave chief Nurhachi rebelled against the Ming, the population was less than 500,000, and the number of troops was less than 100,000, which was really not worth it for the Ming Dynasty, how could the Ming Dynasty not be able to defeat less than 100,000 horses." From the twentieth year of Wanli to the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, Dongying Guan Bai Toyotomi Hideyoshi twice organized a large army to invade my Ming vassal country Korea, and my Ming Dynasty aided Korea twice and defeated it, at that time the population of Dongying was more than 10 million, and the Dongying army was more than 100,000, according to the statistics of previous wars, Dongying invested more than 300,000 troops at the most, and finally it was not defeated by my Ming hand. Until the forty-sixth year of Wanli, only twenty years have passed, will the Ming Dynasty not be able to defeat tens of thousands of slave soldiers? “

Yes, it doesn't exist, Zhu Cihong said with a puzzled face: "What's going on?" ”

Zhang Bin was a little indignant and said: "The disaster of Jiannu is not so much the disaster of the invasion of the enemy country as the disaster of the Ming court, and the previous wars between the Ming Dynasty and Jiannu were not defeated in the hands of Jiannu, but in the hands of the Ming Dynasty itself." There are always some traitors and villains, who disregard the interests of the country for their own selfishness; In order to fight for power and profit, regardless of the danger of the country; For their personal gain, they can put tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of border soldiers to death; In order to control the power of the court, they can frame Zhongliang, kill dissidents, and do whatever it takes! “
