"Second brother, the envoy of the Duoyan Department has been waiting for a few days, do you want to take the time to meet with me?" Seeing that the third father-in-law was sweating profusely, but he was enjoying it, Xie Hong didn't bother to sympathize with him, stood in front of the tuyere, and talked about Zhengde about business. [No pop-up novel network]

"Duoyan Sanwei? Didn't they just come here once at the beginning of the year, and why did they come again this time? Zhengde picked up a kitchen knife and pulled a few knives in his hand, then turned his head and asked a little puzzled.

"Last time, it was the messenger of Duoyan Sanwei, and this time it was Duoyanwei's flower commander, it's different...... I said second brother, you don't cook, what are you doing in the kitchen all the time? Also, the kitchen knife is for cutting vegetables, not for juggling, wow, it's dangerous for you to throw around like this, what happens if you hit someone? ”

Seeing the kitchen knife flying up and down in Zhengde's hand, spilling a bright shadow, but it didn't fall on the cutting board, Xie Hong was a little dizzy, but there was still a group of people around. Although the third father-in-law, who is the most good at sycophancy, can't spare his hands, the two women with the most noble status in the Ming Dynasty are clapping and cheering next to them.

"Oh, it's your new father-in-law, big brother?"

Zhengde's attention was finally diverted, he put down the kitchen knife, and said to Xie Hong with a teasing face: "Big brother, don't you think that having a father-in-law at home is too much of a problem, so you want me to send him away early, right?" You're a fake businessman. ”

“…… Second brother, you're boring. Looking at Zhengde's face as a tabloid reporter, the corners of Xie Hong's eyes twitched twice, and it was easy to straighten his face, Xie Hong directly reminded: "This time, the flower commander came here specially to cooperate with the Northern Expedition, this is far away, you think he is just to see his daughter." ”

"Northern Expedition, I can't go, it's boring......" Zhengde's mood quickly fell, he pulled out the kitchen knife from the cutting board, and chopped the cutting board as if he was venting.

Xie Hong said with relief: "The Tatars have been broken last year, this time there shouldn't be any big battles, it's just as boring if you go, it's better to open a store in the capital." ”

"Anyway, every time I can't tell you, then I'll see you." Zhengde sighed listlessly, threw down the kitchen knife, and greeted loudly: "San'er, stop, the store will be handed over to you, and I will go back to the leopard room." ”

“…… The slave obeys. The third father-in-law, who was about to collapse, was finally liberated.

After accepting the concubine, Zhengde spent more time in the Qianqing Palace than before, but the leopard room was not abandoned. Even if the emperor is no longer obsessed with training soldiers and horses, this is still a holy place for competitive sports, and it is also the headquarters of the military academy, and Zhengde often comes, but he no longer regards this place as a dormitory.

The place where Hanadang was received was still the hall of the Military Academy, and since the Ryukyu envoys, Masantoku has liked the feeling of receiving foreign envoys here.

This hall is still the same, a large sand table with a radius of several zhang is placed in the center, simulating the overall territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the smaller ones next to it are local terrain, and there are various maps hanging on the walls, which is very military headquarters atmosphere.

Huadang has been in the capital for a while, and after many inquiries, he has a little bit of a score in his heart about Zhengde and the current situation of Daming, so after entering the hall, he was also shocked, but he quickly reined in his mind.

"Weichen Huadang, see Your Majesty." It is very convenient for Duoyan Sanwei to take refuge in Daming, because there are old precedents to follow. Hua Dang is a smart person, and he has been dealing with Xie Hong for so long, he has already realized that when he meets Zhengde, he does not drag his feet and directly sees him as a courtesy.

In addition to admitting his vassal status, Hua Dang also put a lot of thought into his attire, he is now wearing not a fur shepherd's outfit, but a scarlet robe worn by officials above the fourth grade, with a tiger on the robe and a belt of golden lychees on his waist.

"Get up." Zhengde waved his hand casually and walked to the sand table. He didn't pay much attention to these details, and his mind was on the Northern Expedition, although he couldn't be pro-government, he could strategize and win a thousand miles, and there was also a lot of fun.

"Hua Tongzhi has worked hard in the distance, Beiyu has always been disrespectful to the Ming Dynasty, and when he violated the border pass, he was not shallow for the disaster, and he colluded with the scum of the DPRK and China last year, and killed tens of thousands of soldiers in Xuanzhen, and the crime is unforgivable! Now, I want to raise troops to march north, and destroy this dynasty in one fell swoop, so that my people can enjoy peace and peace, and spend a long time on the frontier, do you have any good suggestions? ”

"Back to Your Majesty......" Hua Dang also muttered in his heart, saying that the Central Plains people like to hide half and say half, the higher the status, the more so, but the two I saw, the status is higher than the other, but the style is more direct than the other, and the Beiyu ...... Speaking of which, I seem to be one of them.

"Your Majesty's divine martial arts, the power is not under Taizu Taizong, the battle of Yingzhou, shocking the world, Tatars, Warat have been frightened, if Your Majesty is a northern expedition, Zhukou will be intimidated by Your Majesty's divine might, look at the wind and flee, and the north of the desert is vast, it is difficult to obtain supplies locally, and there are many hardships and dangers in the transportation route from the rear, and I am afraid that there is a risk of working and being fruitless......"

Hua Dang walked to the side of the sand table, and while marveling at the magic of the sand table, he replied cautiously. When it came to working in vain, the speed of his speech became even slower, and he didn't dare to look up at Zhengde, but his eyes kept sweeping over Xie Hong's face, wanting to get some hints, so as not to say the wrong thing.

"Hua Tongzhi, the emperor asked your opinion, and you just said it, what are you doing all the time staring at me?" Xie Hong said expressionlessly.

"Yes, it's the last general, not ......" Hua Dang scolded in his heart, don't the people of the Central Plains pay attention to loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness, and they have sent a daughter who is like a flower and jade to you, why can't this elbow be turned a little bit? The tone was tight beforehand, and after the face saint, there was this dead face, so it wouldn't be another trap, right?

"So, you're against the Northern Expedition?" Zhengde asked.

"Don't dare, don't dare." Hearing Zhengde's tone was a little unkind, Hua Dang's heart was also awe-inspiring, he gritted his teeth, crossed his heart, and said: "The so-called army is plotting, the enemy is already cold, and it is difficult to have results in the conquest, so why not join forces to provoke the relationship between the Tatars and the Warats, as well as the Tatar tribes, so that they kill each other and weaken themselves." ”

"The wisdom of the ancients is not bad." Zhengde nodded.

After receiving the praise, Hua Dang was greatly inspired, and immediately shook his spirit and pointed out the country.

“…… After the death of the little prince, Wusu's strength was relatively well preserved, and he had the merit of killing the tiger's mouth and confronting the fire sieve, so he was able to temporarily occupy the position of Khan, but he was the first to flee in Yingzhou, and he was also quite criticized, not to mention that his strength was only slightly higher than that of other tribes, and the position of power was very unstable. ”

He also deliberately inquired about the situation in the grassland, and he was also a Mongolian, and when the grassland was in turmoil, it was not difficult to get the news. And the strategy he offered was also the best strategy he came up with with all his might, for which he read a lot of military books and historical records, and after arriving in the capital, he also consulted many famous people, and he was still very sure.

"Wechen used to be confused, because of his background, so he also had some intersection with the Tatar Ministry, but if His Majesty allows, Wechen is willing to make meritorious service and contact the ministries to learn from it, and Your Majesty can collect all the credit without much effort!" After analyzing the situation, he volunteered to ask for help, a brave, resourceful and responsible general.

"Instigating civil strife in the Tartars, watching their self-defeat, and not knowing how to solve border troubles with a single soldier? This sounds familiar, Hua Tongzhi, are you sure this is the solution you came up with yourself? Zhengde asked rhetorically with a smile.

"Huh?" Hua Dang was stunned, and when he offered advice, the emperor still had to ask if it was original? What kind of routine is this? Although I did consult some people, the general idea is that I came up with it myself.

"I ask you, what do you think will be the result of the cannibalism of the Tatar tribes? Kill and kill, and the Tatars disappear on their own? Or will the more you kill, the stronger the overall strength, and finally there will be a little prince who stands out? Zhengde then asked again.

"This ......" for Zhengde's thoughts, Hua Dang touched the edge. It's just that although he is a little anxious, he can't find the words to deal with it in such a short period of time.

Just as he opened his mouth, Zhengde sneered again: "When dealing with military affairs, it is not appropriate to have courage but no strategy, but it is even more ridiculous to use only strategy without courage." Don't attack it with the power of swords, only to provoke civil strife to deal with it, the wars on the grassland are mainly based on conquest, and the killing is not heavy, the so-called conspiracy is just a missed opportunity, so that the enemy has a chance to integrate, hehe, rotten Confucianism. ”

"Wechen is not thoughtful, but it is a sincerity, and there is no intention to protect the evil intentions, please read it in Wechen...... "Hua Dang's surprise is not trivial, there is a cold sweat all over his body, and it is still hot outside, but he is like being in an ice cellar.

"Okay, okay, I didn't say what I wanted to do with you, get up, don't lie on the ground, so I have to keep my head down and talk to you, it's hard work." Zhengde said indifferently: "Since you don't have a good idea, then listen to me, I and Lord Xie have discussed a good way, which can solve the trouble of the Northern Captives once and for all, Hua Tongzhi will also come to refer to it." ”

"Wechen obeys." Hua dang's heart can be regarded as falling back into the belly, and the heart is very slanderous to the two of them, obviously they have already made up their minds, why didn't they say it earlier, let themselves work so hard, but the result has not fallen well, the son-in-law is really an outsider, far less intimate than his son.

"If you want to completely solve the threat of the northern captives, there are three ways......" Before a thought was finished, I saw the young Tianzi stretch out his right hand and put up three fingers. The grassland people are a big problem for the Central Plains, and no one has been able to solve it for two thousand years, and now so many strategies have come out?
