2/4~――――According to the practice of the Ming Dynasty, where there is a war, there must be a civil servant to supervise the army, and the candidate for the overseer is not whether the person understands military affairs, but the surname of the war itself, such as whether it is dangerous, the size of the merit and so on. The ministers always have to measure the best surname-to-price ratio among them, and then they will make a decision.

The surname price is relatively high, naturally everyone rushes to go, Daming still attaches great importance to the reward of war achievements, and no one will be afraid of the small credit; If the surname price is relatively low, then no one cares; If it's like this, the risk is extremely high, and the credit is a little disproportionate, then everyone avoids it.

Therefore, Cao Yuan thinks that he is already very proud and responsible, and from the silent reactions of others, it is enough to reflect this. However, Zhengde's face did not change much, neither praise nor relief, as if he had not heard Cao Yuan's generous statement.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks what Cao Shangshu said is reasonable, but some details are worth discussing. The Tartars made a living by plundering, and rarely thought about the long term, although they broke through Xuanzhen this time and won an unprecedented victory, but they may not have any ambitions to attack the Central Plains. As long as the troops and horses are mobilized to strictly guard the pass and prevent it from causing trouble in Gyeonggi, it can be kept safe and sound, and it only needs to wait for it to retreat after a long time. ”

With the beginning, it is not difficult to make suggestions again, immediately after Cao Yuan, Liu Yu also stood up, he once served as the governor of Xuanda during the Hongzhi period, he thinks that he has some knowledge of side affairs, and he does not think that the little prince will have any ambitions to enter the Central Plains.

And what he said was also tactful, on the one hand, he affirmed Cao Yuan's views, and on the other hand, he also took into account Zhengde's face, at least he thought it was so. Don't look at the emperor's military training in full swing, it seems that he is very interested in military affairs, but how could Emperor Yingzong not be like this back then?

Emperor Yingzong only heard that the vanguard suffered a defeat, and he lost his ground, resulting in the collapse of the 500,000 army without a fight, which led to the fiasco of Tumubao, and now the Son of Heaven is not as old as Emperor Yingzong of the year, and it has been smooth sailing after ascending the throne.

The 50,000 elites of the Xuanfu were exhausted, which obviously sounded the alarm for the emperor. It was the 1,000 border troops that came with Xuanfu who opened up the situation for the emperor at the beginning, and the 50,000 soldiers may be worse than the 1,000 people back then, but the gap should not be too big, the 50,000 troops are gone, how can the emperor not be touched?

But young people always have a good face, and they recruited guards to make a lot of fanfare before, but now they have to work hard and ask the world for help, and they will definitely not be able to get over their face! That's why Liu Yu has this idea.

He also thought very clearly, since the Xuanfu border army entered Beijing, the gap between the border army and the local army, and even the Beijing camp has been obvious, in the face of the elite of the border army, the combat power of the local army is not worth mentioning at all, not to mention them, even the Beijing camp is not the same only to be beaten?

Therefore, instead of making a big fanfare, it is better to quietly mobilize the border troops of Ji and Liao Er Town to come back, so that it is a good strategy to gain face and get the inside.

It's just that Zhengde obviously didn't appreciate Liu Yu's good intentions, and he didn't even bother to respond to this proposal, he just nodded faintly, and his eyes swept over Liu Yu indifferently, without stopping at all.

Liu Yu felt very aggrieved, wasn't his proposal good enough? Could it be that the emperor really intends to follow the example of Emperor Yingzong, and the more the emperor can't conquer himself? However, the current situation is completely different from before the civil fort.

Before the civil fort, the power of the nobles was still quite strong, and as soon as the emperor gave an order, an army of 500,000 came out, including many veterans who had participated in several northern expeditions in the Yongle period.

As for the enemy, there were only 50,000 soldiers and horses at that time, and there was no in-depth meaning, just looting in Xuanfu. Purely literally, it was a must-win situation at the top of Mount Tai at that time, and if you really want to fight, even if you don't command effectively, you don't necessarily lose, after all, the strength comparison is there.

But now? The enemy's strength is obviously stronger than that of the year, if the Xuanfu border army is not defeated, mobilize 50,000 soldiers and horses from Jizhen, and converge with the elite of the Shangjing battalion, maybe it can still fight. But the elite of the Xuanfu has collapsed, and the rest can't even guard the pass, what will the emperor do to conquer it in person?

The soldiers and horses of the five army camps have been transformed into cavalry and are scattered in the northern provinces, and if you want to regroup, you will have to wait until winter. The forbidden army and the 3,000 battalions have many elites, but the number is a little less, but about 10,000 people, how can they have the power to turn things around?

Transferring troops from Jizhen? How much? If you are the main force, you have to mobilize more than 80,000 to say the least, right? But in that case, Jizhen will be empty, and a single Liao town can deter Duoyan Sanwei? If you don't want to be the main force, where does the main force come from?

Guards? Liu Yu pouted secretly, there were quite a few people, there were 50,000 people, but they were just a group of baby soldiers. At the beginning, the three thousand may still have some doorways, and those who have practiced for less than a year in the back may not be able to fall behind against the Beijing camp, but if they are against the Tartars who are like wolves and tigers...... As a result, do you still need to talk about it?

Obviously, it is not advisable to go to the army or counterattack, the current capital does not have that condition at all, if you try your best to fight, it will be a feast delivered to your door, although the emperor is a little unreliable, but he should not joke with his life, right?

So Liu Yu was very aggrieved, very entangled, and very puzzled, his proposal was already quite thoughtful, why didn't the emperor even want to listen to it?

He was depressed, but some people felt very happy, and Wang Wei was one of the representatives.

They have made so many arrangements and calculations in order to induce Zhengde to pro-conquest. Don't forget, this proposal was put forward by Yang Ting and this emperor, he knows Zhengde's surname quite well, this young Tianzi's surname is together, that is, regardless of the situation, after training for so long as a soldier, he has long been enthusiastic, hungry and thirsty.

As for being afraid or something, Yang Tinghe didn't think that Zhengde would have this kind of emotion, if he had, in August of the first year, he would not let Xie Hong mess around and seize power by force. This is a boy who is fearless by nature, and his wild heart makes him uninhibited.

And once the emperor is personally conscripted, it will be nine deaths and one life, no, it should be a mortal situation. There is a precedent for this, if it weren't for the efforts of the civil ministers, how could the 500,000 army bomb the camp without a fight, just because they were dissatisfied with the eunuch Wang Zhen, isn't this nonsense?

Will the Tartars not pursue after the rout? Can they guarantee that they can run faster than the Tartar horses? Can't a Tartar knife kill someone?

Of course, the infiltration of civilian officials into the current Beijing camp and the Guards is not effective, and there is no way to shake the morale of the military by spreading rumors inside. However, as long as the emperor goes out of Beijing, there are many places where he can do his hands and feet, besides, the comparison of the strength of the Tartars and the Ming army is not the same as back then, there is no need to be so troublesome, just let the emperor go out of Beijing to Xuanfu.

Now it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it just so happens that Xie Hong, who killed a thousand knives, went to Jiangnan, and without this person getting in the way, then the possibility of an accident will be minimized. By the time the thief returns to the capital, it will be too late, haha, without the emperor and the guards, what tricks can he come up with?

Seeing that Zhengde was not interested in Cao Yuan and others' serious suggestions, Wang Wei was really excited, and he decided to work harder and push behind Zhengde's back.

"Your Majesty, in the opinion of the old ministers, Cao Shangshu and Liu Shangshu's suggestions are exactly a safe discussion." After the split of the Shi Party, this is the first intimate contact between the two sides, Wang Wei's approval surprised many people, the whole family died, Wang Ge Lao should obviously hate the imperial party, and even the emperor himself, right? How could it be ...... suddenly? Did he decide to turn around? But it's too late, isn't it?

Wang Wei ignored the many surprised eyes on his body, and continued to say in a deep voice: "In addition to strictly guarding the pass to ensure that Gyeonggi is safe, we should also send a heavy minister to discuss the withdrawal of troops in the Tartars......"

"Wow!" One word shocked a thousand waves, and all the ministers were in an uproar, discussing the withdrawal of the army? Isn't that just peace? Don't negotiate peace, don't get along, this is the Ming Dynasty's consistent style of foreign races, even if it was such an unfavorable situation in the civil fort back then, the Ming Dynasty didn't bow his head, how can he negotiate peace now? Is Wang Ge Lao crazy?

Even Lu Wan was a little dazed, discussing peace? There is no such thing in the plan, if the negotiation is really successful, won't the previous efforts be wasted?

"Now the Tartars are wreaking havoc in the border town, needless to say, although it is a border town, but after all, it is also the land of the Ming Dynasty, the people of the ancestors, although the court is powerless to save each other, how can it sit idly by?"

In the face of doubts, Wang Wei did not waver, but raised his voice, and said with pathos and compassion: "The old minister can't bear to sit idly by, and is willing to bear this stigma, go to Xuanzhen in person, and let the Tartars retreat with great righteousness, and if they can't succeed, they will be willing to accept the law of the country." ”

The vast majority of people were shocked by Wang Wei's words, which were reasonable, responsible, benevolent and righteous, and what they said was better than what they sang, as if they were writing a book and making arguments, but they didn't look like a qualified official said them. It can only be said that Wang Ge Lao is really crazy.

Others thought so, but Wang Shouren was anxious, he originally wanted to wait for the thought to be clear before making a plan, but at this time, he couldn't take a lot of care, and immediately stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to lead the troops out of the pass to retreat from the enemy." ”

Wang Wei glanced at Wang Shouren deeply, and when he saw the other party looking back proudly, he knew in his heart that his calculations had been spied on. His thinking is similar to Liu Yu, young people love face, especially today's son of heaven, so he proposed to make peace, but in fact it was a radical method, in order to provoke Zhengde to hold back.

Wang Shouren suddenly snatched it out, obviously to divert Zhengde's attention, Wang Wei secretly sneered, Wang Bo'an is slightly more intelligent, but unfortunately, it's useless!

The capital is now relatively empty, there are no soldiers and no generals, even if Sun Wu is resurrected, he can only cry out in vain, even if the other party reluctantly brings tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to attack, in the end there is only the end of defeat and death, at most, it is just a retreat, and the ending will not change.

Or is it that Wang Bo'an is fighting this idea, he wants to desperately delay time and wait for Xie Hong to come back? Wang Wei thought about it for a while, and felt that he had missed something, but what did it matter? That thief is not a real immortal, how can he have the power to return to heaven when he comes back?

Besides, the key to this matter depends on the emperor's own attitude, whether it is war or peace, it is only in his thoughts.
