Chapter 787: It is decided to send troops
Looking at Wang Xijue's resolute appearance, Zhu Changluo couldn't help but be speechless for a while, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the change of Tumubao......
This battle, which symbolizes shame, really left a too painful impression on the Ming monarchs and ministers, so that a hundred years later, I still feel terrified when I think about it.
He could naturally hear what Wang Xijue was worried about, the change in the original civil fort, the one that suffered the most was the three major battalions!
Before the change of Tumubao, the three battalions had the legacy of Emperor Chengzu, sitting on 600,000 troops, strong soldiers and horses, which can be called the elite of the elite, but in a battle of Tumubao, the three battalions killed more than 300,000 soldiers and wounded more than 100,000 people, which can be described as a great injury.
What's even more terrifying is that the three battalions were originally the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and they were responsible for guarding the Beijing Division, and in the battle of Tumubao, the three major battalions suffered a heavy setback, and only tens of thousands of people remained in the Beijing Division, and the elite army was defeated and the Civil Fort, so when they also drove straight into the city of the Beijing Division, there were almost no soldiers in the Beijing Division.
If it weren't for Yu Qian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, who came forward in time to reorganize the remnants of the three major battalions, and urgently transferred troops from all over the country to help, maybe even the Beijing Division might not be able to keep it!
In the final analysis, the duty of the three major battalions is to guard the Beijing Division, and the failure of one or two battles and the safety of the imperial city of the national capital are naturally self-evident......
If the border is lost, the imperial court can send a large army from all over the country to rescue, but if the Jingshi is lost, it will be a sinner for the ages!
"Well, let's discuss this matter again, Wang An, you go to the outer hall and call the other gentlemen!"
Shaking his head, Zhu Changluo waved his hand and said.
In fact, perhaps in the eyes of the courtiers, today is an image of being extremely tough and willing to bend, but if you make up your mind, no matter who dissuades you, it will not necessarily change, but in fact, this is not the case.
Zhu Changluo just understands the word "guide according to the situation", he will continue to change his means and attitude with the changes in the situation, and if you look back carefully at what he did, you will know that although Zhu Changluo has done a lot of things that touch Wenchen's bottom line.
But every time he made a move, he made careful arrangements in advance, not simply to suppress others, but to achieve his goals through various means.
In this process, the interests of some people have indeed been touched, but until now, Zhu Changluo has never had a large-scale conflict with Wenchen head-on.
The incident of Chengtianmen can be regarded as the most fierce conflict between monarchs and ministers since he ascended the throne, but although it sounded scary that time, to put it bluntly, it was just an impulsive move by a group of imperial historians, and none of the heavyweights of the imperial court really ended up fighting.
This is the reason why Zhu Changluo let go, if there was a Shangshu-level official standing on the side of the Chengtian Gate at that time, Zhu Changluo would definitely not have such a tough attitude!
This can be clearly seen in the later things, Zhu Changluo's move to kill You Shiren was opposed by a big man, and Zhu Changluo's attitude immediately softened, although he finally killed Youshi Ren, but he lowered his value and admitted his mistake to the cabinet has already expressed his sincerity.
So in fact, Zhu Changluo has a scale in his heart about how to get along with Wenchen, but he will never do anything that may cause unanimous opposition from the ministers.
Just like the current situation, since the old Shoufu has such an attitude, then the attitude of the other courtiers may also be visible, forcibly sending out the three battalions, maybe there will be no big changes, but there will inevitably be a big unhappiness between the monarch and the ministers.
Lao Shoufu is now recovering from a serious illness, and Zhu Changluo doesn't want to make him sick again......
"See the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!"
A group of old adults were very relieved in the side hall, and they enjoyed a lunch given by the emperor.
After entering the hall, seeing that the Son of Heaven and the old Shoufu were standing separately, and there was no trace of quarrel on their faces, they naturally thought that the two had reached an agreement.
"Gentlemen, it is an unforgivable crime for Turmo to rebel and invade Datong, kill my ministers, and hurt my soldiers and people. I will definitely kill the Turmo tribe and never dare to offend my Ming again! ”
But as soon as they got together, the words of the Son of Heaven suddenly smashed them into a daze.
This...... What's going on?
It is clear that the situation is still very good when they leave the palace, and the Son of Heaven is about to be persuaded by them, how can he go out and have a lunch, and when he comes back, he will become like this, look at the appearance of the Son of Heaven, it is obviously more exciting than just now......
For a moment, everyone's eyes were puzzled on the old Shousuke.
saw the latter muttering for a moment and stepped forward.
"Fight! If the Tulmer tribe has committed a crime against our Ming Dynasty, it is obvious that they have been plotting ill intentions for a long time, and if they fail to defeat their army and raise the prestige of our country, they may make the other Tatar tribes covet it, so this battle must be fought, and if it is fought, it will be won by war! ”
The hearts of the ministers were cold......
What the hell is going on? They originally planned to let Lao Shoufu persuade the emperor to come, but in just a few teas, Lao Shoufu became even more radical than the Son of Heaven.
In fact, now, Wang Xijue's heart is also smiling bitterly, why does he want to do this?
was originally to persuade the Son of Heaven, but in the end, he was persuaded by the Son of Heaven!
However, the biggest advantage of the old Shoufu is that he is decisive in the face of things, and the things he recognizes will not change, which he is even more stubborn than Zhu Changluo, since the situation in Tatar is like this, this battle is inevitable, it is better to let go of the battle, if this battle can be won, at least within fifty years, the Ming Dynasty will have no worries!
"Your Majesty is wise, I have treated the Turmo Department well, and I have been rewarded repeatedly, but I don't know how to thank God, but instead raise an army to attack me, it is a sin that is not forgiven, and I should send troops to recruit it, in order to show the power of my great Ming Dynasty!"
The ministers were stunned for a moment by the unanimous statement of the Son of Heaven and the old Shoufu, and the first to react was a certain elder surnamed Li.
Although I don't know what happened, but Li Ge Lao saw clearly, the Son of Heaven left Lao Shoufu alone to talk in detail, after talking about Lao Shoufu's attitude is a big change, there must be something they don't know, since Lao Shoufu has decided to send troops, they don't have to be this bad guy.
Therefore, the old man Li Ge stood up to support the emperor's decision, followed by Li Tingji, but it was Shi Xing, the secretary of the military department, who stood up, and since the last incident, Master Shi has been resolutely supporting the various decisions of the Son of Heaven, and naturally he will not disobey in this kind of major event.
In this way, among the courtiers, there were two cabinet ministers and a secretary of the military department, a total of three bigwigs supported the dispatch of troops, and the rest looked at each other for a while, and had to nod helplessly......
