After listening to Zhang Zhijie's words, Yang Tinghe breathed a sigh of relief, what he was most afraid of was that Zhang Zhijie would raise tens of thousands of troops and rashly go on a northern expedition. Although Zhang Zhijie has won several battles and is even more famous all over the world, in the hearts of these ministers, he cannot be compared with the barbarians in the north.

Whether it was the already weakened Warat or the newly emerging Tatars, they were all descendants of the Great Yuan. Although Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong had gone on expeditions to the desert and returned victorious, Mongolia was still the most powerful enemy of the Ming Dynasty.

Today's Dayan Khan Batu Munk, with the assistance of the Queen of Manduhai, revived the Mongols, defeated the powerful Warat, and basically unified the Mongols. Although Manduhai has passed, the Tatars led by Dayan Khan Batu Munk are still not to be underestimated.

Therefore, what Yang Tinghe is most afraid of is that Zhang Zhijie rashly raised troops for the Northern Expedition, and if the division is unfavorable, it will ruin the current good situation. What he is most afraid of is that Zhang Zhijie is arrogant, so he is arrogant.

Now when I heard Zhang Zhijie say that he had no intention of marching north, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As for Zhang Zhijie's statement that he would lead the Shenji Battalion to the north to train troops, it was just a trivial matter.

The transfer of 30,000 or 20,000 soldiers and horses is not a matter at all for today's Ming national strength, so there is no need for Yang Tinghe to have a hard time with Zhang Zhijie for this little thing.

Moreover, Zhang Zhijie led the Beijing camp to the north to train the troops, which is not a bad thing, the military discipline of the Beijing camp is lax, and the combat strength is weak, which is also a headache for the imperial court. That is, the Shenji Battalion and the 3,000 Battalion followed Zhang Zhijie to go on the expedition, which can be regarded as combatable soldiers.

Every autumn, the poor Mongols come to plunder in order to survive the long winter. If Zhang Zhijie led the Shenji Battalion to guard the nine sides, this would also kill two birds with one stone.

The flintlock pistol was much easier to use than the arquebus, which was not a difficult task for the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, who were good at firearms. But the musket was loaded with a bayonet and used as a spear, which they had never encountered.

So, it is easy for them to practice using flintlock pistols, but it is not easy for them to practice using bayonets. Therefore, the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion really went through a lot of hard training, which made the generals a little surprised, and felt that the Admiral was a little abnormal.

In the face of their questions, Zhang Zhijie did not hide it, and bluntly said that he would lead the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion to patrol the border towns in the autumn. Only then did the generals of the Shenji Battalion understand the hard work of the Admiral, but they were not frightened, because with sharp weapons such as flintlock pistols, there was no pressure at all to help the border army resist the Mongols.

But Zhang Zhijie did not plan to lead the army to Xuanfu or Datong, he planned to lead the army straight to Liaodong. On the one hand, it is because Zhang Zhijie has a knot, and on the other hand, although the Jianzhou Jurchen has not risen in recent years, they are nominally obedient, but in fact they often invade the border.

Therefore, Zhang Zhijie planned to start with Liaodong first, and he even began to requisition warships and cargo ships to transport grain directly to Lushun, and if it was feasible, then he would use this as a common practice in the future. Because sea transportation is much more time-saving and labor-saving than land transportation, whether it is from the south or from Beijing, it is very convenient to transfer grain by sea, and even from Champa to transport grain.

The autumn defense was approaching, and when Zhang Zhijie was actively preparing for the military to Liaodong, the Xuanfu urgently reported to the Beijing division for 600 li, and the military situation was urgent.

Originally, Emperor Zhengde knew that Zhang Zhijie was going to send troops to Liaodong, but to be honest, Emperor Zhengde didn't really understand it, because compared to the invasion of the border by the Jianzhou Jurchens, there is no doubt that the Tatar invasion of the border is much more serious.

And in the heart of Emperor Zhengde, Mongolia is a big trouble, and now Dayan Khan Batu Munk has unified Mongolia again, although it is still scattered sand, but this is a great shock to the Ming Dynasty.

Because this is the first Mongolian unification since the founding of the country, since Emperor Taizu expelled the remnants of the Great Yuan, Emperor Taizong made several expeditions to the north to beat the grassland, and since then the grassland has been divided by a group of heroes.

No one expected that there would be a Mandu Sea queen on the steppe, who led the army to defeat the powerful Warat and basically unify Mongolia with her husband Batu Munk, who was still a child, in her arms.

Although the Empress of Manduhai is gone, Batumunk inherited and strengthened the power of the Tatars and became the true lord of the steppe.

There is no doubt that a unified Mongolia is the most powerful hidden danger for the Ming Dynasty, not only the Zhengde Emperor thinks so, but also the ministers.

But Zhang Zhijie smiled at this and said nothing, but set his eyes on Liaodong and Jianzhou Jurchen. This made Emperor Zhengde very puzzled, although the Jianzhou Jurchen became stronger and stronger, and often offended the border, but compared with the Mongolian tribes on the steppe, the Jianzhou Jurchen was just a child who had not grown up.

During the Chenghua period, the plough court and the cave sweeping almost made the Jurchen clan extinct, so Emperor Zhengde didn't care too much about the Jianzhou Jurchen, compared to the threat of the Tatars, the Jianzhou Jurchen was really a disease of scabies.

Therefore, after receiving the urgent performance of Xuanfu, Emperor Zhengde immediately summoned Zhang Zhijie. Zhang Zhijie knew about the urgency of the Xuanfu when he had not yet entered the palace.

Emperor Zhengde was not worried about the urgency of Xuanfu, because he had confidence in his heart, although the border army was sluggish, but the national strength was strong. Now that Zhang Zhijie has set his sights on the north, he believes that the military affairs in the north will definitely change. He has full confidence in Zhang Zhijie.

"Minister Zhang Zhijie see the emperor!" Zhang Zhijie entered the Qianqing Palace and saluted.

"Knowing the festival, Xuanfu is in a hurry, and there is movement on the grassland. The Tatars plundered the Duoyan Sanwei, and the Duoyan Sanwei suffered a lot of damage. Emperor Zhengde raised the music in his hand and said.

Although Zhang Zhijie knew that Xuanfu was in a hurry, he didn't know the specific content, and said suspiciously: "It's a good thing that this Tatar has robbed Duoyan Sanwei, Duoyan Sanwei has always been the grass on the wall, and when Warat was strong, it swayed between the court and Warat, and now Tatar is rising, and Duoyan Sanwei is swaying between Tatar and the court." Let them suffer a little, as long as they don't get swallowed up by the Tatars! ”

Emperor Zhengde shook his head when he heard this: "After the three guards of Duoyan were plundered, they were not willing to be damaged, and they could not survive the winter if they were robbed of cattle, sheep and horses. ”

Zhang Zhijie smiled when he heard this: "Could it be that they still have the courage to attack the Tatars?" ”

Emperor Zhengde smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Naturally, they don't dare to be Tatar, so they are planning to invade the border and plunder our people!" ”

Rao is Zhang Zhijie thought a lot and didn't expect it to be like this, Duoyan Sanwei was robbed and was furious, and he didn't dare to raise his saber to the Tartars, so he planned to rob Daming. Zhang Zhijie couldn't help but smile angrily and said: "What a Duoyan Sanwei, this is treating us as soft persimmons, and we dare not speak out when we are robbed by the Tatars, but we have spread our anger on the people of our Ming Dynasty!" ”

Forced to work overtime。。。。。。
