"Your Majesty, according to the minister, with the current defense of the capital, it can neither be fought nor defended..."

"I know, you don't have to analyze the objective situation for me!" , Before Xu Jie finished speaking, Zhu Houyu interrupted him, now when he mentioned the defense of the capital, Zhu Houyu was so annoyed, he thought about it, as soon as the war ended, he would find out the problem of the army's empty salary!

Although Xu Jie was interrupted by the emperor, he was not in a hurry, and continued to speak, "The minister thinks that the only way at present is to delay time, wait for reinforcements to arrive, and then gather forces to launch a counterattack on Alda!" ”

"Well, Aiqing is right...", Zhu Houxi nodded at Xu Jie, "So how to delay time?" ”

"Your Majesty, the solution is on this document...", Xu Jie smiled and picked up the document on the table, "The tribute document should be considered very important, but there is only Chinese on it, and there is no Mongolian text, which is inconsistent with etiquette, so we should return the document now and ask me to formulate a Chinese and Mongolian two-character document, and then submit it to the table for discussion." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

When Zhu Houxi heard this method, he was stunned: "Is this feasible?" But think about it... It's a good idea..."

Yan Song was already unhappy when he saw Xu Jie's performance so energetic, so he said aloud on the side, "Lord Xu, this move is too naïve, right?" It must be known that the army of King Qin from all over the country will rush to the capital, and it will take three days to travel at the earliest, do you want to delay the answer for three days in this way? ”

As soon as Yan Song said this, Zhu Houxi also looked at Xu Jie with the same puzzled eyes. Obviously, he didn't have much confidence in Xu Jie's method either.

"Your Majesty, of course, this move can't buy us that much time, but it's enough for us to prepare for war." , Xu Jie said firmly.

"Preparing for war? Do you mean to fight me? Yan Song questioned Xu Jie with a somewhat frightened tone.

"Of course you have to fight! The demands of the Tartars are so rude, how can we give in? Xu Jie kicked back what Yan Song said just now.

"You... Then you just start a war now, why are you still playing these false tricks with the Tartars! Yan Song said angrily, he is really dumb now, he can't say what he is suffering, let Xu Jie be so majestic today, let him put himself so ruthlessly, he is really unwilling.

"Elder Yan Ge, it takes brains to fight, and now there are not enough soldiers in the capital, can we delay for a moment, don't you even understand this question?" , Xu Jie said with a sneer.

Of course, Zhu Houxi would definitely not sit idly by and watch the two of them bickering here, he waved his hand to stop them, and then turned his gaze to Xu Jie, "Zisheng, you also know that the defense in the capital is insufficient now, even if you have time to prepare for armaments, but... Can you keep the capital from losing? ”

"Yes, sometimes the method should always consider the actual situation...", Yan Song saw that Zhu Houxi's statement was biased towards himself, so he sneered on the side at the right time.

"You must know that Mr. Qiu fought a battle, and the result was hung up, and now he can't even get out of bed...", at this time, Yan Song did not forget to ridicule his other political enemy, Qiu Luan.

Of course, what Yan Song said was also the truth, because Qiu Luan is indeed recuperating from his injuries at home now, and as for the cause of his injuries, it is not enough for outsiders.

Zhu Houyu gave Qiu Luan an an order to take charge of the defense of the capital, Qiu Luan came up with a negotiation trick, but Qiu Luan estimated that Zhu Houyi would definitely not agree to the condition I had answered, so he came up with a solution: pretending to be sick.

Of course, pretending to be sick is also skillful, you directly say to the emperor: Oh, no, I'm not feeling well, you still assign someone else, then it is estimated that Qiu Luan's political career will come to an end.

So Qiu Luan's solution is to fight a battle, and take the lead and be injured in the battle, so that the emperor won't blame me, right? So Qiu Luan quickly put it into practice, he took his large team of men and horses, and found a lone Mongolian cavalry outside the city to fight, so many people fought so many people, they must have won.

So Qiu Luan's recital table is there, and he met a large group of Tartar soldiers outside the city, Qiu Luan led the army to resist, although he won the victory and killed many enemy soldiers, but Qiu Zongbing was seriously injured because he was too brave in battle. And then there is Qiu Luan's set of clichés, what minister really wants to serve the country and serve His Majesty, but I am helpless, I am sorry, I can't do it...

Zhu Houxi's attitude towards this matter is still very open-minded, not only did he not blame Qiu Luan, but praised him greatly, and he praised him sincerely.

In Zhu Houxi's opinion, this is really a great loyal minister, not only concerned about my safety, the first to rush over to King Qin, but also the first to take the lead, not sparing his life at all, this is simply a model minister!

In this way, Zhu Houxi was moved, Qiu Luan was happy, only Yan Song was unhappy with a black face, and he was here to talk about cool words.

"Yes, General Qiu has been injured, otherwise, if he is in charge of the defense of the capital, how can he allow the Tartars to be so arrogant!" , Zhu Houxi's words made Xu Jie almost laugh...

In fact, the defense of the capital is now represented by Ding Rukui, the secretary of the Ministry of War, for the time being, but Zhu Houxi himself does not trust this secretary of the Ministry of War very much, so if Ding Rukui fights with me, Zhu Houyu is really not at ease.

If you want to say that Jiajing was in the first dynasty, it is not that there were no fierce generals, but at this moment, the fierce generals are basically dead, and those who have been slandered cannot be reused.

For example, Zhou Shangwen is also a tiger general, but because of the suspension of the war, I replied, and in the end, Zhou Shangwen was outnumbered and died in battle, so he gave Zhang Da the position of the general army of Datong, but Zhang Da died after a few days.

Another example is Weng Wanda, who can be regarded as a brave and resourceful general, but it is a pity that he was slandered by Yan Song, and he was idle at home, and he couldn't save him if he wanted to save the scene.

There is also Zhang Jing, who has always been in charge of the affairs of the two Guangzhou, although he is a useful general, but now he will definitely not be able to come back to solve this chaos.

As a result, Zhu Houxi searched all over in his mind, and now in the capital, there is no suitable candidate for the unified army, if he can't find this, then he can still resist a fart!

Just when Zhu Houxi was at a loss, Xu Jie sent a life-saving straw on the side, "Your Majesty, the minister recommends one person who can take on the responsibility of the defense of the capital." ”

"Who?"

"Peng Yue, the former head of the household department!" It turned out that when Peng Yue returned to the study that day, he wrote a letter to Xu Jie, asking him to recommend himself to Zhu Houxi, and Xu Jie also seized this opportunity well.

Yan Song was naturally unhappy when he heard Xu Jie's suggestion, he didn't want Peng Yue to return to the court, but before he could say no, Zhu Houxi had already agreed.

"Okay, then Peng Yue will temporarily take the position of general first, and the governor will do military affairs in the capital this time!" , Zhu Houxi finally grabbed a life-saving straw, and naturally he couldn't let go at this time. He also knew Peng Yue's performance in the complex war, the reason why he didn't expect it just now was because in his impression, Peng Yue had always been a civil servant, but now it seems that he is quite suitable as a military general!
