"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Mongolian tribes are insatiable and will take advantage of the opportunity to blackmail and make prices all over the sky. You can't convince them!"

At this imperial meeting, Lu Ruipeng was sent to Yang Sichang's side, and after hearing the dialogue, he also expressed his views through Lu Ruipeng: "Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal of the Governor. The messenger sent by the minister reported that the Mongol tribe was not having a good time because of natural disasters and lack of food and clothing. There are several clans that even have external pressure. It has been observed that the Dzungar Department seems to have great ambitions and plans to plot against Qinghai-Tibet; And the Heshute division seems to be in conflict with Tsarist Russia in the north. These tribes are likely to get enough benefits from the Ming as much as possible to meet their material needs in the surrounding areas. ”

"But Your Majesty, now that Da Ming is using money everywhere, the immediate expenses are already stretched, and he really can't afford to start a big war again. If the war is indecisive for a long time, it will be dragged down by the country, and it will be difficult to raise taxes? Wen Tiren argued with reason, and bitterly dissuaded.

Hong Chengchou listened, but still objected: "Your Majesty, a long-term pain is better than a short-term pain, only by quickly solving the Mongolian tribes in the west, can the development of the Hetao not be disturbed, and can we resettle as many victims as possible in Qin and Jin!"

“……”

Listening to their opinions, Emperor Chongzhen's brows furrowed, and he did not immediately express his opinion.

He could hear that there were two main suggestions, which could be summarized as the Naturalization School and the Jingshi School. Emperor Chongzhen can also understand these two points of view, both of which are based on their own perspective, and want to get the greatest benefit from their side.

For these two views, it is not possible to say who is right and who is wrong, but there is the kind of argument that the public says that the public is justified and the mother says that the mother is reasonable. But this is not a family affair after all, it is a major event that affects the entire Ming Dynasty and affects countless people, and it must be implemented in the most appropriate way.

After listening for a while, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly found that Shen Yongmao didn't seem to speak anymore after he started to speak, so he shouldn't have any other ideas, right?

Thinking so, he interrupted the argument between the two factions and asked Shen Yongmao: "Shen Qing is the secretary of my Ming Dynasty's military department, I see that you have been silent, do you have different opinions?" ”

Hearing this, everyone in the hall stopped talking and turned their heads to look at Shen Yongmao together, with anticipation in their eyes.

Sure enough, Shen Yongmao had his own thoughts, and saw him bow to Emperor Chongzhen and say, "Your Majesty, the minister just heard what Governor Yang said, it seems that several large Mongolian tribes have their enemies. The minister thought that the enemy of the enemy is the friend. In this case, it is better to send envoys to contact their enemies, such as Qinghai-Tibet, and what Tsarist Russia is trying to do together!"

When Wen Tiren heard this, he quickly weighed it, and immediately played: "The minister thinks it's okay!"

"Your Majesty, this will be protracted, and it is difficult to say whether it can achieve its goal, and the minister thinks it is inappropriate!" Hong Chengchou listened to it, but expressed his opposition.

This time, Emperor Chongzhen finally did not remain silent anymore, and immediately shook his head and said: "I don't know anything else, but that Tsarist Russia, I know that it is an insatiable country, and now I am afraid that it has coveted the eastern land for a long time, and it is estimated that I have already sent troops." For Tsarist Russia, we must not seek skin with the tiger, and sooner or later the Ming Dynasty will have to fight with it......"

Hearing this, all the courtiers couldn't help but be surprised, I don't know how the emperor knows so much about this Tsarist Russia? Or did a secret detective of the factory know about it?

They were thinking about it, when Emperor Chongzhen suddenly raised his voice to speak, and pulled their thoughts back: "Iron still needs to be hard, I can't seek skin with the tiger, and pin the hope of solving things on others!"

Wen Tiren nodded when he heard this, the truth is this, but the problem is that now Daming himself is not hard enough! The emperor must not slap a swollen face and become fat, and approved Hong Chengchou's suggestion, right?

Thinking like this, he was a little worried, thinking that after Emperor Chongzhen finished speaking, he would emphasize his point of view and stop the emperor's possible impulses.

However, Emperor Chongzhen obviously surprised him again. As he spoke, he combined the suggestions of both parties in his mind, and he had a flash of inspiration and a way to get the best of both worlds.

I only heard Emperor Chongzhen's voice say loudly: "I have an idea, for the current situation on this side of the Hetao, we must not only show the strength and determination of the Ming Dynasty, but also not let the war expand under the current circumstances. Therefore, can Hong Qing do it and wipe out the Bu Shitu tribe with a thunderous blow? The key to this battle is to decide the Bu Shitu tribe in a battle, can Qing do it? ”

After asking, Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while and added: "To the east of Guihua City, Qing can not think about it for the time being, Jianyu will definitely not be able to move, and he will have no time to take care of the Hetao." Even if they were to send troops, I would have heard in time. And the same is true of the eastern Mongol tribes!"

This means that Hong Chengchou can use the maximum number of troops, and only a very small number of troops are left at home. This is impossible for ordinary people, but Emperor Chongzhen has a chat group in hand, but he can do this.

"Your Majesty, the minister should be able to!" Hong Chengchou hesitated for a moment after hearing this before replying.

He knew that when the opinions on his side and the opinions of Shoufu and others were deadlocked, the compromise method proposed by the emperor was already the best method, and it was basically to be implemented in this way.

But he didn't know how Bu Shitu's side would respond? After a previous naturalization war, he enjoyed the feeling of transparency to the battlefield. Now I don't feel this way anymore, and I'm a little unaccustomed to it.

Wen Tiren also knew that the final plan must be what the emperor said, after hearing Hong Chengchou's answer, Wen Tiren was a little worried, and immediately solemnly suggested: "Your Majesty agrees with this proposal, you must fight the tiger and the rabbit, and kill the chicken with a knife, in order to achieve the goal of deterring the western Mongolian tribes!"

Emperor Chongzhen knew that they all understood the point of what he said, so he nodded and said, "In this way, I will order the governors of the three sides to draw elite cavalry troops, just like the last time they participated in the war. In this way, believe me, the military strength of the Ming Dynasty will always have an overwhelming advantage! ”

Hearing this, Hong Chengchou was overjoyed, so that he was more sure, and he immediately replied: "The minister will definitely destroy Bu Shitu's department!"

Bu Shitu sent people to hunt down and kill the Ming envoy, and there were captives to testify, and the teacher was famous, but he was not afraid of what others said. Even if he can't catch Bu Shitu and let him escape, as long as he has no troops in hand, then there is nothing to scruple about.

The plan is set, and the next thing is for Hong Chengchou to get busy. Xue Guoguan and Xu Guangqi set off from Guihua City to return to Beijing, and a new war began to brew in the western grasslands.

At this time, the Jianyu on the North Korean side also harvested the amount of grain they expected.
