However, a bloody battle at Gaoshupo with the first division of Di Meng completely woke up these aborigines who were watching. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe Mongols who came with great momentum finally hit their heads and bled in front of the Ming army, and the natives finally realized how small they were in front of the firearms of the Ming army in the rumbling artillery fire of Gaoshupo.

What's more important is the battle of Gaoshupo, where the Ming army really told the natives with blood and artillery fire that even if Mongolia has a large number of troops, it is nothing.

The Mongols dealt with the Zhenla people, perhaps like chopping melons and vegetables, and the Ming Dynasty dealt with the Mongols like chopping melons and vegetables, and the two sides were like enemies who were not on the same level.

Therefore, several tribes hurried over to ask for guilt after the battle of Gaoshupo, although they also had a sin of not delivering the news in time, but it was this small sin that caused the first division to almost misjudge the situation of Gaoshupo, if it wasn't for Di Meng and Jiang Shao acting carefully, I am afraid that Gaoshupo would be the place where the first division collapsed and sank into the sand.

"In the battle of Gaoshupo, what the sentinel that you should have done well became, I think you also know," Lou Yong said unhurriedly after a long time, "I don't need allies who escaped at a critical time, if you don't want to help Ming, then please leave, unless there are special circumstances, my Ming army will still remember the old feelings, and will not attack you, and then this Mongolian Tartar will be fought by ourselves, even if there is no help from you, my Ming soldiers will not be afraid of them!" ”

Several of the indigenous chiefs had a look of chagrin on their faces, the generals of the Celestial Empire just didn't have the merchants and officials to talk to, but now they had no choice. Even if Lou Yong kept saying that he would not trouble them, and that everyone's well water would not interfere with river water, they would have the courage to believe it, after all, now that the Ming army has been deployed one after another, many indigenous tribes are outside the artillery positions of the Ming army, and those powerful weapons that once cut a layer of high tree slopes obviously don't mind cleaning them up before greeting the Mongols.

And now Lou Yong met them on the city wall of Xihui Town, followed by the generals, and the surrounding soldiers were even more eyeing them, which was clearly a posture of asking for guilt, which made these chiefs break out in a cold sweat behind their backs, and I don't know if the scapegoat they prepared can withstand it.

"After that, we will inevitably follow the pace of the Heavenly Empire, and the banner of the Heavenly Empire will be the direction of the bloody battle for our soldiers, and we will also ask the generals of the Celestial Empire to give us instructions." Several of the native chiefs fell to the ground at the same time, while their subordinates approached with several plates, and lifted the cloth covering the plates, and several heads were placed on them.

One of the chiefs lowered his head and said: "This is the head of the people who were supposed to go to investigate in the first battle of Gao Shupo, and a few of them did not do well, causing the army of the Celestial Empire to be almost ambushed by the Mongol Tartars, and the crime is extremely evil, so I took it upon ourselves to present their heads to the generals of the Celestial Empire in accordance with the rules of the clan, so as to ask the generals to forgive their sins." ”

Lou Yong raised his eyebrows, telling the people who knew the secret to shut up, the best way was to kill them, and these indigenous chiefs obviously chose these guys without hesitation. This is an internal matter of the indigenous tribe, and Lou Yong doesn't want to worry about it, what he cares about is the attitude of the indigenous people, since the indigenous people have sent this step over by themselves, then he naturally has no reason not to use it.

"When the person dies, this matter will be stopped," Lou Yong said lightly, "A few of you, please get up, and then I want to compete with the Mongolian Tartars outside this Xihui Town, and I have to rely on your help, I only hope that you will not live up to the expectations of the Ming Dynasty, and do not live up to the efforts of the Ming Dynasty." ”

"I can't wait!" The chiefs said in unison, and they could feel their obvious relief. Obviously, Lou Yong didn't really intend to hold him accountable - if he did, I'm afraid that several of them wouldn't be able to save their heads, as for what to do in the future, needless to say, they all know it.

Watching the chieftains leave tremblingly, Lou Yong shook his head, and Sun Jun, who was standing behind him, asked in some surprise: "General, how can you forget it like this, the first division killed by these guys was almost wiped out, and if the general deals with it like this, I'm afraid he won't be able to explain it to General Di······

Lou Yong hammered the city wall fiercely, and said in a deep voice: "These guys are going back on their word, do you think that they don't want to kill them, if it weren't for Di Meng's still a little brain, this time I'm afraid the first division will have to be explained in Gaoshupo, without the first division, with these two brigades, how can you hold Xihui Town?" These damned natives almost pushed us into the doom······"

After a pause, Lou Yong's voice was a little low, and he looked at Sun Jun and Su Geli helplessly: "But now is the time to employ people, as long as these guys can contribute in the future, they will still be of great help to us, Da Ming wants to drag the Mongolian Tartars in this Xihui Town, and he can't do without them." ”

Sun Jun and Su Gree glanced at each other, and both fell silent.

As Lou Yong said, even these natives are usable soldiers after all, as long as they can be used, it will at least be beneficial to the Ming Dynasty.

"Don't be idle, now immediately lead the army to Watai and Lingpo," Lou Yong said in a deep voice, "Even if the Mongol Tartars cross the high tree slope, they can't let them in so easily." ”

Although this Xihui Town is located at a critical point, it is really difficult to defend it for a long time because the city is small, so what Lou Yong has to do now is to do everything possible to stretch the battle line and avoid a direct decisive battle with the enemy in front of Xihui Town.

"No!" Sun Jun and Sugree hurried down the city.

And Lou Yong slowly looked up into the distance, at this time he suddenly remembered that His Majesty had warned them that the Nanyang people who did not join the Ming army system were not enough to rely on, and even the army of the subject countries such as the Three Buddhas, which completely adopted the training method of the Ming army, could not be fully believed, and the performance of these natives today undoubtedly confirmed His Majesty's warning.

"Minister, I have the trust of His Majesty." Lou Yong closed his eyes and muttered.

——————————————————————

Nanjing, Zichen Palace.

Ye Yingwu silently looked at the ministers who were talking to each other, and at this moment Ye Yingwu suddenly understood that the hat wings made by the eldest and second of the Zhao family seemed to be really a good thing. Zhang Quan stood up means that the family wants to give it a go, after all, Zhang Quan, the right attendant of the military department, is definitely not comparable to the rest of the small master books, it can be said that the main representatives of the family in the court today are Zan Wanshou and Zhang Quan.

The tactics of the family are naturally very clear, and they will do everything possible to drag it down, because they know that the current Ye Yingwu has no way to drag it out, whether it is the war in Nanyang and Beiyang, or the rebellion in Liaodong, it cannot be delayed, as long as the matter is dragged to this, Ye Yingwu can only be put backwards if he wants to launch a comprehensive counterattack against the family through the judgment of the Criminal Department, which gives the family more opportunities to mobilize resources and breathe, after all, the family has no way to force Ye Yingwu to make concessions, All he could do was to do his best to ensure that he was not completely crushed by Ye Yingwu, and even look for an opportunity to fight back.

Ye Yingwu coughed lightly, and the entire court fell silent.

"Done talking?" Ye Yingwu said lightly.

The civil and military officials below, including Wen Tianxiang and other officials standing on Ye Yingwu's side, didn't know what His Majesty wanted to do, so they could only hold their breath and listen quietly at this time. Thunder, rain and dew, all of them are Jun'en, whether you agree or not, you have to listen to Ye Yingwu first.

"Liaodong's matter is not so complicated," Ye Yingwu picked up the teacup and took a sip unhurriedly, "The hatred between my Huaxia and the Jurchens has never been resolved because of a battle in Caizhou. Maybe the former Song Dynasty was complacent, but I thought that the shame of Jingkang's difficulty must be washed away with the blood of the Jurchens. Now that the Jurchens have been sent to the door, there is nothing to entangle and hesitate. Just last night, I had ordered the two Huai armies to leave the customs and put down the rebellion together with the town navy. ”

The ministers below invariably took a light breath, once the order of "kill" was issued, there would be a river of blood everywhere it went. His Majesty's methods are ruthless, as always. And Ye Yingwu didn't seem to want to dwell too much on this issue, and directly said the order he gave him, obviously wanting to end this topic.

Zhang Quan said without hesitation: "Your Majesty, quelling the chaos should be the top priority, but the ministers impeached by the ministers should also be responsible. ”

"Then dare to ask Zhang Xianggong, Liaodong is a place where the Jurchens gather, my Ming officials and generals are in Liaodong, when they are in the mob, the mob is plotting against them, and I am afraid that anyone can only realize it later," Chen Yizhong stood up and said loudly, "Please also ask Zhang Xianggong to deal with it in a different place, if Zhang Xianggong is in a treacherous place in Liaodong, surrounded by mobs, there is only a bloody battle in the dilemma, and at this time the court is discussing how to convict you, Zhang Xianggong may be at ease?" ”

"As the minister of the Ming Dynasty, he is the Jiupin Sesame Official, and he should go all out, how can he talk about peace of mind?" Zhang Quan raised his eyebrows with some disdain.

Chen Yizhong laughed, and did not answer his words, but arched his hand at Ye Yingwu: "Your Majesty, since Zhang Xianggong has such confidence, I also ask Your Majesty to remove the position of General Wang of the two Huai armies in Liaodong, in order to punish General Wang for failing to detect the incident, and let Zhang Xianggong replace him." At the same time, General Wang was transferred to Beijing to serve as the right attendant of the military department, and his military power was seized and his official position was demoted, which could be punished. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Several imperial historians strode forward after Chen Yizhong finished speaking.

And Zhang Quan and Zan Wanshou's faces changed, no one thought that Chen Yizhong would come up with such a vicious plan to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle. There are not many officials on the side of the family above the court, and it is in contrast to the advantages of the family in the locality, Zhang Quan, as one of the highest official positions, is naturally the person at the bottom of the box who can take out his hand, and this time he did not hesitate to show his identity to play, just to delay time as much as possible, but letting Zhang Quan come forward does not mean that Zhang Quan lost this official position.

This right attendant of the military department does not seem to be very important, but it is a nail embedded in the court by the family, and now Chen Yizhong obviously does not hesitate to pull out this nail at the cost of transferring Wang Anjie back.

In the big picture, the price is worth it.

Especially everyone present knows that the two Huai armies are the two Huai armies of the Ming Dynasty and the two Huai armies of His Majesty, and they are the swords forged by Ye Yingwu's father-in-law, Wang Anjie, and Jian Ba's Hanshi Chen Jiong, and their loyalty to the Ming Dynasty and His Majesty Needless to say, Zhang Quan's going to the two Huai armies is not equivalent to a sheep entering the tiger's mouth?

Whether it is Zan Wanshou or Zhang Quan, they have no illusions that they can control the main army now, after all, these main forces are the foundation of Ye Yingwu's rise, if they can't even grasp the main army, Ye Yingwu's hard work in the past few years will be in vain.

Therefore, Chen Yizhong did this, it seemed that he was belittling Wang Anjie, but in fact, he was filling the biggest hole in the court, and when the court drew up the will, no one in the family could play a role in opposing or delaying in the court.

This is an anti-general army.

Zan Wanshou immediately said without hesitation: "Zhang Xianggong and Chen Xianggong are inevitably serious, Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the top priority is to put down the rebellion of the Jurchens as soon as possible." ”

Ye Yingwu nodded, and looked at Zhang Quan, who was a little discouraged, with a smile - Ye Yingwu didn't expect Zhang Quan and Zan Wanshou to be really stupid enough to allow them to be transferred like this - and said unhurriedly: "I think the advice of the Zan Qing family is good, both of them are the pillars of my Ming Dynasty, there is no need to argue over this matter, since I have already arranged the affairs of Liaodong, then let's do it according to my arrangement first, at least it can be regarded as giving Wang Qing's family and Zhao Qing's family a chance to make meritorious contributions." ”

Zan Wanshou took a breath of cool air lightly, and made meritorious contributions to the crime, and now he wished that Wang Anjie and Zhao Wenyi were not guilty.

Ye Yingwu neatly resolved the family's delay this time, and I am afraid that the next counterattack will be ushered in. Zan Wanshou bowed his head slightly, he didn't know what Ye Yingwu had prepared for him, but he always had an ominous premonition, His Majesty who hid the knife in the smile at the beginning of the entire Great Dynasty Meeting, coupled with the aggressive Chen Yizhong, Wen Tianxiang, Wang Lixin and others who were ready to fall into the well at any time, this Great Dynasty Meeting was not so much a battlefield of confrontation between the two sides, but rather a net laid for Zan Wanshou and them, they didn't notice it at first, but now as they continue to struggle, this net has also begun to tighten.

Zan Wanshou is not a timid and forward-looking person - otherwise he would not have led the armies of Sichuan and Shu to entangle and confront the Mongols for so long - so he does not regret the choice he made, whether it is thunder or rain and dew, since it is here, then continue. Subconsciously raised his head slightly, Zan Wanshou happened to see Zhang Quan on one side trembling intentionally or unintentionally, which made Zan Wanshou sigh secretly in his heart, if there is really anything unsatisfactory, I am afraid that this partner of mine is really a little muddy and can't support the wall.

Look at those standing on Ye Yingwu's side, Wen Tianxiang, Liu Shiyong, Xie Fangde, etc., there are many talents, and those who stand on the side of the family, in addition to themselves, still have the power to maneuver, although Zhang Quan and others are in important positions, but how can they be Wen Tianxiang and Chen Yizhong's opponents, they are just bypassed and almost went around themselves into the trap dug for the enemy.

Although Zan Wanshou did not regret his choice, at this moment he also could not suppress the feeling that the era of the family was about to pass, and the newly rising academic scholars represented by officials from Bailuzhou Academy and the industrial and commercial class represented by officials from the Ministry of Industry such as Guo Shoujing and Chen Yuanliang will eventually take the place of the family and become the new supporters of the royal family and the ruler of the power of the world.

As a provincial appeaser who is actually at the same level as the six Shangshu of the DPRK, Zan Wanshou asked himself that he did not have such a lofty vision, and could clearly see the changes after more than ten years or even a hundred years, but he could clearly feel that something had changed compared to before, and it was very likely that he was the victim of this change.

Just when Zan Wanshou was a little uneasy in his heart, Xia Shilin, the secretary of the Criminal Department, walked out quickly: "Your Majesty, the case of the Nanjing City family inciting the people to rebel has been clearly reviewed by the emperor's order, and after discussing with the officials Wang Xianggong and Chen Xianggong of the Imperial Historical Observatory, they will jointly play. ”

In the entire court, there was silence.

Zhang Quan subconsciously stretched out his sleeve and wiped the sweat on his forehead. And the corners of Zan Wanshou's mouth couldn't help but show a wry smile.

This is the matter when it comes up, His Majesty's counterattack is straight in, this is to kill with a knife!
