However, it was said that at this time, the excerpt that had been played by Zeng Milling had been seen by Zhu Houxi, and Zhu Houxi was very hesitant about this. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although Zhu Houxi is now obsessed with cultivation, the chaos on the side has always been a problem for him. This is not because of how painful the Tartars were about the looting and insulting of the people after they invaded the border, but because of the fact that the former Taizu strategized and chased the northern captives to nowhere to escape, and Chengzu even drove the expedition in person, so that Hu did not dare to go south for several years and herd horses. And in his own dynasty, although there is no humiliation of the civil fort, but the Tartars have been committing crimes all the year round, day by day, as a king, how can he not care about this.

But deep down he told him that this was just his whim, and that he was no longer the monarch who was eager to make a difference. He just wants to refine the pill every day, cultivate the Tao, and have a few more peaceful days that belong to him, and enjoy these privileges that only belong to the emperor.

After so many years of imperial career, he has long been tired and tired, and he is now preferring no size work, but seeking peace. Although he is still mentally hinting in his heart all the time: he is a good emperor.

Hesitant, he also wanted to hear the minister's opinion, so he handed the letter to the Ministry of War for reconsideration. However, it is said that the secretary of the military department at this time is Wang Yiqi, although this person is not a minister, but he is good at observing words and feelings, and strives to protect himself in the officialdom.

He observed Zhu Houxi's words and deeds, and knew that Zhu Houyi was hesitant about recovering the Hetao and had no firm intentions. The book said that to deal with the tartars, it can be repeated, but it can also be built on the edge. Seeing that the north is now prosperous, although both things are difficult, one must be chosen. Compare the two. It is difficult to reset, and it is easier to build edges. Therefore, it is requested to build the edge first, and slow down the repetition.

For myself this opinion. Wang Yiqi was carefully considered. He felt that if he asked for the construction of the border, although the matter would be lost, it was relatively safe and nothing would go wrong. At most, Zhu Houxi felt that he was wasting money, and if he didn't build it, he couldn't blame himself anyway.

But if you suggest a repeat, the situation is very different. If the recovery of the Hetao is successful, this credit will be credited to Zeng Mo's head, and maybe he will replace himself as a squire in the military department. If the recapture of the Loop fails. Zeng Mo naturally wanted to be punished, but he, who was a military secretary who deeply agreed with him at the time, could not escape the involvement. Coupled with Zhu Houxi's very obvious vacillating attitude, it is natural that he cannot agree to the move of recovering the Hetao.

Wang Yiqi's words naturally made Zhu Houyu more inclined to oppose the recovery of the Hetao, but he did not expect that Xia Yan ran to Zhu Houyi at this time and tried to show the benefits of recovering the Hetao.

"Your Majesty, the Tartars occupy the Hetao and infest the borders, and it will be a hundred years now. The reason why the border turmoil is getting worse day by day is because the situation is fixed in the Tartars. And not in our army. Tartar takes advantage of the danger of the deep mountains and rivers, and out of the set is Kou Xuan's big three passes, and he is subdued by Zhenji: if he enters the set, Kou Yanning is Gangu, so as to disturb the pass. If the loop is recovered. The benefits of the Tartars will be gone, and the chaos can be easily solved. ”

Xia Yan also studied this in advance and knew the importance of the strategic location of the Hetao. Therefore, he wanted to persuade Zhu Houxi to agree to the recovery of the Hetao.

Although Zhu Houxi did not understand military affairs, he listened to Xia Yan's statement. Coupled with Zeng Milling's compromise, he also understands the importance of recovering the Hetao. But the deep sense of anxiety in his heart could not be eliminated, "The recovery of the Hetao is a very big matter, if it happens, I am afraid that the disaster will be even worse..."

Obviously, Zhu Houxi was also a little concerned about the recovery of the Hetao, but he was afraid of failure. Because if it fails, I am afraid that the border chaos will be even more serious than it is now.

"Your Majesty, the autumn is tall and the horses are strong, the bow is strong, the Tartars are gathered and attacked, our army is scattered and defended, and the situation is not conducive to our army. But in winter, the water is deep and dry, the horses have no place to stay, the spring is cold and rainy, the soil has no dry soil, and the Tartars are weak at this time. If our army takes advantage of its exhaustion at the turn of autumn and summer, and advances by water, it will surely win. Moreover, the squire of the military department was scheming, and Peng Yue was in command. I don't know if Your Majesty has ever heard that in the Datong guard, the artillery made by the military weapon was beaten and fled. Xia Yan calmly analyzed to Zhu Houxi that he would launch an attack at this time and regain the advantages of the Hetao.

"So very good...", although Zhu Houxi said this, his tone was also a little hesitant, "But the war is impermanent, if it drags on for a long time, this matter of military salary... It all needs to be carefully planned..."

Xia Yan saw that Zhu Houxi was still wavering, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart: "Your Majesty, Hetao was originally the territory of the ancestors, but it had to be lost because of the shortcomings of the previous dynasty. If you can recover your homeland, you can merge the river as a block, build Dunhuang, build a guard, dispose of the soldiers, pay attention to the government, and use the transmission of the whole province and Shaanxi to strengthen the situation of China. ”

When Zhu Houxi heard that Xia Yan linked the recovery of the Hetao with the general trend of ZTE, he couldn't help but feel spirited. Although his heart is not as good as it was back then, when he talks about it, the pride in his heart still can't help but burst out.

"Actually, I already agreed to recover the Hetao, but the king said that the banner should now focus on building the border, and it is more difficult to regain the set, so Xu Tuzhi should do it..."

"How can Your Majesty believe the words of the king with a banner!" , Xia Yan was very angry in his heart, "Building a border is just a matter of decades. And the complex set is to drive away the ferocious, and to fight near the river, which is the country's eternal plan! Thanks to his Wang Yiqi or the secretary of the Ministry of War, he is really a man with a mouse's eyes! If you want to do anything about it, please ask Your Majesty to cut it! ”

Zhu Houxi listened to Xia Yan's plan for a while, and then scolded Wang Yiqi for a while, and his face couldn't help but be red and white, "What Aiqing said is very true, I agree to recover the Hetao..."

"Your Majesty." , Xia Yan heard that Zhu Houxi agreed, and couldn't help but be happy in his heart, so he kept silent and said nothing else.

"I wonder what Yan Aiqing thinks about this matter?" , Although Yan Song is now suppressed by Xia Yan everywhere, Yan Song has been unremittingly flattering to Zhu Houxi, and Yan Song is also a cabinet assistant, so Zhu Houxi has never forgotten him.

"He doesn't have any opinions, he just says that everything is only ruled by His Majesty." , Xia Yan looked disdainful.

In fact, Xia Yan did not consult Yan Song at all in the handling of the cabinet chapter. Xia Yan has always firmly controlled the power of voting in the cabinet in his own hands, and Yan Song is not allowed to get involved at all.

Although Yan Song was not angry about this, he was also helpless, and he could only go to Xia Yan with an old face every time, and express two opinions on everything, in case he was really marginalized.

But for some reason, Yan Song just glanced at this matter, and then didn't say a word, but Xia Yan didn't care much about it, anyway, Zhu Houxi had already agreed to the repetition, what else did he have to worry about? (To be continued.) )
