Chapter 172: The Momentum of the Great War

There is a kind of speech official, they impeach the ministers, and even provoke the emperor, all they want is the word fame, and some people are paranoid to the point of outrageousness, even if they die, as long as they can be famous in the world, they will not hesitate.

For such a person, Tang Yi only has two words "dog leash".

The lucky Yang Jisheng was by no means such a person, when he learned that I had joined the Kou, the Mongol army was showing off its might outside the city, and he immediately had a hair and a tear.

"Master, the disciple is willing to emulate Han Suwu here, although he dies, he will not disgrace his mission!"

Elder Xu Ge nodded with satisfaction, and reminded again: "Zhong Fang, you are here to listen to the truth of my answer and figure out his plans, and you must not be rash." ”

Yang Jisheng scratched his head and said with a smile: "That's what the disciple said, I still want to see how Brother Zicheng and Xingzhi clean up my answer!" ”

"You just believe the two of them?" Lu Bing asked as he rubbed his big hands.

Yang Jisheng patted his chest and said with a smile: "Lu Taibao, the lower officials themselves thought that they would definitely die, but they were able to pull me back from the ghost gate, who do you believe if you don't believe them!" ”

Lu Bing was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I hope Your Majesty didn't see the wrong person." ”

"Your Majesty?" Tang Shen was stunned.

Looking at Tang Shen's puzzled gaze, Lu Bing scolded with a smile: "You thought I was full, if it weren't for Your Majesty's signal, I would have come out to protect Yang Jisheng, Yan Shifan, that guy doesn't necessarily hate me?" I can tell you, we are grasshoppers on a rope now, and what to do is up to you. ”

And so it was!

Although Lu Bing is the most powerful Jinyi guard, he is actually far from being as tough as he looks, to put it bluntly, he is just Jiajing's marionette, thinking of this, Tang Yi has no fear.

smiled: "Mr. Jiaoshan, you go and prepare first." Immediately take a few men and go outside the city to meet Me. Yang Jisheng nodded, said goodbye and left the cabinet room.

……

After sending Yang Jisheng away, Tang Yi relaxed a lot and said with a smile: "Ge Lao, Taibao, in fact, to put it bluntly." If Mr. Jiaoshan doesn't go, I can guess the meaning of my answer. ”

Lu Bing hurriedly asked, "Boy, don't you brag?" ”

Elder Xu Ge suddenly smiled dumbly: "Lu Taibao, the old man thinks that I should have come here for tribute trade." ”

"Pavilion Elder Wise!" Tang Yi slapped his ass smoothly.

Since the Mongols were driven back into the desert, they have lost their ambition to compete for the world, all they want is to live comfortably, but the steppe has nothing but cattle and sheep, and they have to gather men and horses again and again. Come and loot.

However, although the Ming Dynasty is a dish, it has a nine-sided town that has been in business for a hundred years, and there are many soldiers, and looting is a high-risk thing in the end.

Especially for pots and pans, cloth and grain, it is really not worth it. Not to mention, for the Mongols, the necessities of life are far more valuable than gold and silver treasures. For this little thing, both sides complained bitterly.

The Mongols got tired of it first. turned to actively ask for trade, but the Ming Dynasty did not have anything else, but there were a few poor bones, and they did not agree, only to establish a horse market in Liaodong and a tea market in the northwest. and a tough trade blockade was imposed on the Tatar ministries that were mainly hostile to the Ming Dynasty.

Since the rise of Altan Khan, he has constantly harassed the Ming Dynasty, and all he wants is nothing more than the word "trade".

As the so-called right medicine, as long as you promise to pay tribute, I will get out immediately. At this point, Xu Ge has been in the center for a long time. I know it, but what, the twisted melon is not sweet, the Celestial Empire wants face, the scholars want face, and the Jiajing Emperor wants face, and the humiliating acceptance of tribute trade is the difference between the Song Dynasty's New Year's coin, which will never work.

……

"Okay, you're not going to agree to pay tribute in exchange for my withdrawal from the army, are you? If that's the case, the old man can't agree! Xu Ge said firmly, there was no room for anything.

Tang Yi hurriedly said: "The kid has no such intentions, even if it is a tribute, it is given by the Heavenly Empire, and it cannot be snatched by it, otherwise where is the dignity of the Celestial Empire!" ”

"That's it." Lu Bing asked worriedly: "In this case, how are you going to deal with me, do you want to gather the army of King Qin?" ”

"Hehe, King Qin? I'm afraid those people will run away before they can touch the tartars. Tang Yi said with a smile: "Although I have an army of 100,000, in fact, a main battle soldier must have two or three cooperating servants, so the real combat strength of I am about 30,000." They came to pay tribute, and they definitely didn't carry siege weapons, even if they were outside the capital, it was just a bluff, as long as the city was stable, they didn't have the ability to get in. ”

After listening to Tang Yi's analysis, Xu Ge Lao and Lu Bing both looked at each other, and it seemed that the situation was not particularly bad. It's just that if I can't kill the capital, even if I can't kill it, I can still loot other cities everywhere, and I still have to suffer serious losses. And what is the difference between doing this and Yan Ge Lao, how to explain to Jiajing?

Xu Jie's face sank like water, and said: "Okay, tell all your ideas, don't hide it." ”

"Yes."

Tang Yi pondered slightly, and then said with a smile: "I don't think it's necessary to mobilize the army of King Qin, but I can make an order to let the towns on the nine sides send people and horses into the grassland in a big way." Don't fight, as long as you make a posture of encircling Wei and saving Zhao, you can force me to retreat. ”

"High!" Lu Bing applauded happily, he knows the virtues of the border army better than anyone else, those grandsons are very slippery, they rush up when they see cheap, and hide far away when they encounter difficulties, so that they may not be able to confront me head-on, but let them take advantage of the weakness, they may not dare to.

"I will now ask Your Majesty for advice."

Tang Yi added: "It is best to let the thirteen Taibao of Jinyiwei come forward as the Qin Messenger Supervisor to supervise the border army to fight." ”

"Well said." Lu Bing readily agreed.

Xu Jie was still a little worried, and asked: "If you don't mobilize the people of King Qin, can you resist me with the strength of the capital alone?" After all, what if I lose my heart and attack the capital? ”

"Elder Ge is worried." Tang Yi said: "It is necessary to recruit young people, there are millions of households in the capital, and it is not a problem to concentrate 30,000 young people, but it takes time to carry out some training." ”

"How much time do you need?" Xu Jie asked.

"Ten days, ten days is enough!" Tang Yi patted his chest and said: "The kid and Mr. Jing Chuan have studied, the average young and strong, just teach them to assassinate, and they can achieve something in a month, although they can't fight in the wild, but it is more than enough to cooperate with the army to defend the city." Now that the situation is urgent, practicing day and night, ten days should be no problem, but I still have to ask the elder for a favor. ”

"What do you want the old man to help you with?" Xu Jie asked.

"Please gather all the Jinshi of the Jinke Branch."

"They? What can you do? Xu Ge Lao couldn't help laughing and said, "You don't think that everyone is the same as your father, both civil and military, right?" ”

Tang Yi said with a smile: "Ge Lao, the kid didn't expect them to be able to go into battle, as long as the master of Jinshi can follow the training, he can arouse the enthusiasm of the young and strong, improve morale, and also appease the people. I have come from a long way, people are sleepy, the longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for him, once I can't hold on, we will bite hard, and we will definitely be able to hit me hard. ”

After listening to Tang Yi's introduction, Xu Jie thought about it, this plan is quite safe. Moreover, the victory on the sandbank was real, and Xu Jie still trusted Tang Yi's military talent.

"Zicheng, what do you think?"

Elder Xu Ge also asked Tang Shen for confirmation, where would Tang Shen slap his son's face, although he was full of question marks, he still said solemnly: "The prime minister, the combination of military and civilian, strict guarding, no better." The students immediately selected a surprise army from the Beijing camp as a countermeasure, as the so-called victory with the right combination, and kept the arrogant Tartar captives. ”

"Okay, the old man will ask Your Majesty to give an order immediately." Elder Xu Ge finally nodded.

Xu Jie and Lu Bing both went to arrange, only Tang Yi and Dad were left, Tang Shen looked around, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Yi'er, you are not crazy, ten days, I'm afraid you can't even tell the difference between left and right, as for my gang of the same year, pointing to them to train well and improve morale, I think it's wishful thinking." ”

Tang Yi also said in a low voice: "Dad, the children don't want to count on them. ”

"And you're still swearing about it?" Tang Shen was so shocked that his eyes almost fell out, he really didn't know what his son was doing, so he gritted his back molars and warned: "Yi'er, don't you make fun of our grandfather's heads?" ”

"Dad, don't worry, the Buddha still needs 500 arhats to teach the Fa, this time I have made such a big noise, we must also make a disturbance, causing a posture of unity. When the time comes, the reward for meritorious deeds, the rain and dew will be evenly wet, and the people behind the new science and technology will also say good things for us, so that Your Majesty will have a step, and our grandfather will be considered a great success. ”

Tang Shen finally heard his son's heartfelt words, and suddenly struck a spirit, and his voice changed, "Yi'er, why do I think that I don't chant scriptures just for the dojo?" ”

Tang Yi rolled his eyelids, "Dad, you said that you pointed to the waste in Jingying, can you recite the scriptures?" ”

The two of them stared wide-eyed, and could only hope that I had not seen through their empty city plan, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable...... A few years later, someone asked Tang Yi, if I choose to storm and enter the capital, you are a great crime to destroy the nine clans, don't you know if you are afraid? Tang Yi slanted at the sky, and lightly said the famous words that made the other party vomit blood: If you really kill in, the Ming Dynasty will be over, who still has the heart to cure my crimes!

……

I was stationed outside Dongzhi Gate, and destroyed the houses north of Desheng Gate and Anding Gate, and the news continued to reach Yuxi Palace, and Jiajing was irritable.

Talking about comfort is that Tang Shen and the two can be called vigorous and resolute, in less than two days, 30,000 strong men were recruited, and every 100 people sent a new science and technology jinshi, under the command of veterans, a practice is a whole day, the shouts are deafening, and the momentum is like a rainbow. At the same time, they also inventoried the armaments, grain and grass, and cut off the heads of three warehouse officials, and the people in the capital were shocked. The Manchu Dynasty officials all praised each other, and His Majesty used people properly!

"McFu, what do you think of Tang Shen and his son?"

McFuy sighed: "Talent, full talent, only a few days of hard work, the capital is like an iron bucket, the emperor used the right person." ”

"Well, it's the same father and son, the gap is really a bit big!" Jiajing said with a sigh. (To be continued.) )
