Chapter 330 Armament Battle Three Shifts)

Although Emperor Xuande had not yet raised an army to fight against the Han king, the troops of the various guards under the jurisdiction of the Gyeonggi Governorate had begun to move intensively under the orders of the military cabinet, and quickly gathered at Shanhaiguan, Xuanfu Town, Zhending City and Daimyo City, and the entire sky over Beizhili was shrouded in the dark clouds of war.

In order to increase the number of troops, Emperor Xuande ordered the children of the military households of each guard to be recruited into the army, distribute weapons, and return home after the war was over.

Due to the large number of military households in Beizhili, the military pavilion is expected to be able to recruit 200,000 soldiers, so that Emperor Xuande will overwhelm the king of Han in terms of troops.

At the same time, the household department also nervously began to mobilize money and grain to distribute to the various units under the Gyeonggi Governor's Office.

Emperor Xuande is reorganizing the army for war, and the King of Han will naturally not be idle, and the garrisons of Laizhou, Qingzhou, Dezhou and Cangzhou have all fallen into his arms, and the territory under his control occupies almost half of Shandong.

Although there are not as many military households in Shandong as in Beizhili, Shandong has produced heroes since ancient times, and martial arts are prevalent, and the children of those civilian households are natural soldiers.

As a result, the direct mobilization of troops under the command of the Han King reached an astonishing 200,000, plus the Daning Division, Shanxi Xingdu Division and Shanxi Capital Division, which echoed it from afar, the total number of troops used to fight against the imperial court was 600,000.

For a time, more than one million troops of Emperor Xuande and King Han gathered on the border of Beizhili and Shandong, and the clouds of war became thicker and thicker, and the people became more and more panicked.

Fearing the arrival of the imperial counterinsurgency army, many people fled from the Han Dynasty's areas to escape the war.

Speaking of history is always strikingly similar, more than 20 years ago, the main battlefield of the Battle of Jingyan was also in the region of Beizhili and Shandong, and the three years of melee made the people deeply experience the cruelty of the war.

If it weren't for Emperor Yongle's raid on Nanjing, where the city was air-defunct, I am afraid that the people of Beizhili and Shandong would have to endure the suffering caused by the war for several more years.

Therefore, for this battle for the throne between Emperor Xuande and the King of Han, a large number of people in the area controlled by the King of Han chose to flee and leave their hometowns just to survive, otherwise the counterinsurgency army of the imperial court would be ruined as soon as they arrived.

Just when rumors were spreading in the capital and the people were panicking, on August 19, the civil and military officials ushered in a great dynasty once every six days.

In the Taihe Palace, in order to appease the King of Han or to encircle and suppress the King of Han, the officials of the two factions with different views had a huge disagreement and quarreled, Emperor Xuande sat on the dragon chair, looking at the scene in front of him expressionlessly, and he found that most of the officials remained silent.

Just when the officials of the two factions were arguing so much that their faces were red and their necks were thick, and they almost fought on the main hall, Hou Tai, the official of the inner chamberlain who went to Le'an Prefecture to deliver a letter to the King of Han, rushed back to the capital in a dusty manner. The update is the fastest and most stable

Emperor Xuande was in high spirits after hearing this, and immediately announced Hou Tai to the Taihe Palace, and asked Hou Tai what he had seen after arriving in Le'an Prefecture in front of the Manchu civil and military forces in the hall, as well as the explanation of the Han King to his soldiers plundering everywhere.

In the letter to the King of Han, Emperor Xuande persuaded the King of Han to stop fighting and martial arts from personal affection to the righteousness of the world, as long as he handed over those ill-intentioned people who were "confused" and separated from the friendship between the two uncles and nephews, he still regarded the King of Han as his closest uncle and continued to pay respect.

Emperor Xuande of course knew that the King of Han would not give up the rebellion, but he had to do enough on the surface of the articles and etiquette to show his tolerance and forbearance, and put the responsibility for provoking the war on the King of Han, so that the King of Han would be completely infamous as a thief of the "chaos".

Originally, Emperor Xuande thought that Hou Tai would report the Han king's active preparations for war and his intention to rebel in front of the Manchu civil and military forces, so that he could justifiably send troops to fight.

But the next scene was unexpected by Emperor Xuande, Hou Tai only briefly explained his itinerary, as for whether the King of Han recruited troops and his words and deeds when they met, he didn't know how to answer at first glance.

This made Emperor Xuande extremely angry, he did not expect that Hou Tai would cover up the rebellion of the Han King in public, and it was not good to reprimand Hou Tai in front of all the ministers, so he summoned Li Manshan, the deputy of the Jinyi Guard, who went to Le'an Prefecture with Hou Tai with an expressionless face, to interrogate.

Li Yuntian, who was standing in the imperial history queue, frowned slightly when he saw this, and from Hou Tai's abnormal reaction, he keenly realized that Hou Tai was holding a wait-and-see attitude towards the battle for the throne between Emperor Xuande and the King of Han, so he did not dare to offend the King of Han and concealed the truth of the rebellion of the King of Han.

It is clear that the vast majority of the ministers in the court, like Hou Tai, were waiting to see what would happen, waiting for the development of the dispute between Emperor Xuande and the Han Emperor before deciding which of the two sides to support. [32715671 Ruling the Ming Dynasty Ruling the Ming Dynasty] 327 Ruling the Ming Dynasty 330

In Li Yuntian's view, this is definitely a dangerous signal, those ministers with the best attitude and hesitation are like time bombs, maybe they will explode at any time, and they will give Emperor Xuande a heavy blow at that time.

After all, the past of the Battle of Jingjing is still vivid.

After experiencing Emperor Yongle's iron-blooded methods, the ministers in the court were already apprehensive, and there were very few ministers who wanted to lose their lives like Fang Xiaoru, Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng and others.

In other words, for this great battle between Emperor Xuande and King Han, the vast majority of officials in the imperial court took a wait-and-see attitude towards the outcome.

Although Emperor Xuande had an advantage in terms of military strength, don't forget that Emperor Yongle won more with less, and finally succeeded in Jingnan and inherited the unification.

Moreover, whether Emperor Xuande or the King of Han is in charge of the country, they are still the world of the Zhu family, and they are all the descendants of Emperor Hongwu.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live!" Soon after, Li Manshan, deputy Qianhu of the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town, strode into the hall, first knelt down to Emperor Xuande and saluted, and then bowed and stood in front of the hall.

Because it was the first time to enter the Taihe Palace, Li Manshan couldn't help but look a little nervous, this time he followed Hou Tai to Le'an, and the escort was actually going to spy on the reality of the King of Han.

Unlike Hou Tai, who had scruples, under Emperor Xuande's inquiry, Li Manshan did not hide the slightest, and showed Emperor Xuande what he said and heard along the way and the words and deeds of the King of Han to Emperor Xuande.

Since the Han king rebelled in Le'an, the Hejian Province on the border between Beizhili and Shandong has been affected by Yanzhòng, and the garrison has split into two camps, loyal to Emperor Xuande and loyal to the Han king.

The army loyal to Emperor Xuande was based in Jingzhou City, and the army loyal to King Han was based in Cangzhou, northeast of Jingzhou, and the two sides had formed a confrontation situation, which made the situation in Hejian Province suddenly tense.

The garrison in Jingzhou was under tremendous pressure at this time, and it had to not only confront the Cangzhou rebels, but also deal with the threat from the Texas rebels across the river.

Dezhou belongs to Jinan Mansion in Shandong, there is a Wei River between Jinan Mansion and Hejian Mansion, Dezhou City, the seat of Dezhou, is on the south bank of the Wei River, and Jingzhou City is on the north bank of the Wei River, and the two sides are only more than 100 miles apart.

Because of the geographical location of Dezhou City, so it has always been a strategic place for soldiers to fight, more than 20 years ago the Battle of Jingjing Dezhou City is the focus of the Yan Army and the Southern Army, the two sides have repeatedly broken out large-scale battles around Dezhou, and Dezhou City has changed hands several times.

After Emperor Yongle ascended the throne, the city of Dezhou, which had gone through the war, underwent a major repair, the city was high and thick, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it would undoubtedly become the bridgehead of the Han King to the Xuande Emperor, and it was also an important part of the Han King to fight against the imperial court to suppress the rebellion

Compared with the tense situation in Hejian Province, the situation in Jinan Province can be described as tense, because Le'an Prefecture is subordinate to Jinan Province, located in the northeast of Jinan Province, and is the base camp of the Han Dynasty's rebellion.

Jinan City, as the seat of the Shandong Political Envoy Division, the Shandong Provincial Envoy Division, and the Shandong Capital Division, naturally shouldered the responsibility of leading the Shandong Territory and finally the Xuande Imperial Prefecture to fight against the Han Dynasty.

After entering the boundary of Jinan Prefecture, Hou Tai and Li Manshan and their entourage saw many people fleeing with their children and daughters along the way, and fled to Beizhili to escape the war.

Stepping into the area controlled by the Han king, there were conscription teams everywhere, and even plundered the nearby prefectures and counties controlled by the political envoys of Shandong.

Obviously, the king of Han knew that strength was his greatest disadvantage, so he vigorously recruited soldiers and horses among the people.

By the time Hou Tai and Li Manshan arrived at Le'an City, it had become a huge barracks, and troops from all over the city to support the Han king were scattered throughout the streets.

According to Li Manshan's visual observation, the scale of the troops gathered in Le'an City is more than 100,000, and they are all equipped with weapons and armor.

King Han laid down heavy soldiers in heavy armor in the palace, and put on a murderous appearance, which frightened Hou Tai's face pale.

When they saw the King of Han, Hou Tai and Li Manshan couldn't help but be taken aback, facing the envoy sent by Emperor Xuande, the King of Han actually sat facing south and facing north, which was not just a transgression, it was completely rebellious.

In the face of Hou Tai, the Han King was extremely arrogant and clearly expressed his dissatisfaction with Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong.

He thought that he had made great achievements in the time of Jingjing, and was the greatest contributor to Emperor Yongle's ascension to the throne, but Emperor Yongle listened to slander and moved him to Le'an.

As for Emperor Renzong, on the surface, he treated him with courtesy, but in fact, he sent him away with money and small favors, and did not redress his grievances, so that he continued to live in a small Le'an, without the slightest brotherly friendship.

Not only that, the king of Han also talked about the reason for his raising of troops this time, pointing out that the "traitorous" ministers in the court were in charge, and pointed the finger at Xia Yuanji, the patriarch of the Five Dynasties, saying that he, as the descendant of Emperor Hongwu, naturally could not let those "traitorous" ministers harm the Ming Dynasty.

In order to show that he was strong and strong, the king of Han pointed to the soldiers in the palace who were lined up in strict formations and wore armor, and asked Hou Tai arrogantly if his army was enough to sweep the world, so that Hou Tai's face was bloodless and he did not dare to answer.

The king of Han saw Hou Tai's fear, so he asked Hou Tai to go back to Emperor Xuande, only Emperor Xuande arrested those "traitorous" ministers in the court and sent them to him, and he discussed with Emperor Xuande how to solve the matter of raising troops, otherwise there would only be swords and soldiers to meet.

In this place, the history books used "return to the lord" and "Xu discuss what I want" to express the arrogance of the Han king, highlighting his arrogance.

The ministers of the Taihe Palace were in an uproar about this, no one thought that the King of Han would blatantly provoke Emperor Xuande, which was extremely arrogant, and he did not expect that the King of Han had such a great appeal that he actually made many soldiers from the guard go to take refuge.

"Your Majesty, the King of Han has sent a messenger, and now he is waiting for the decree outside the Chengtian Gate!" Just when the civil and military officials in the Taihe Hall were talking, a guard officer walked into the hall and shouted a loud message.

This made the hall quiet in an instant, and all the ministers looked surprised and couldn't help but look at Emperor Xuande, it was obvious that the envoy sent by the King of Han at this time was not good!

"Biography!" Emperor Xuande sneered, and then shouted in a deep voice, he wanted to see what his second uncle wanted to do.

After witnessing the scene in front of him, Li Yuntian shook his head secretly, the King of Han is too conceited, the so-called arrogant soldiers will be defeated, and the King of Han despises Emperor Xuande so much, he is bound to pay a painful price for it
