Volume 1 Jingshi Chapter 30 Xuanfu
Chapter 30 Xuanfu
Zhengde did not stay in Juyong Pass for long, leaving Gu Dayong to blockade Juyong Pass and not allow the cabinet and others to leave the pass. Zhengde and his entourage went to Xuanfu.
The whole Xuanda is the Xuanfu and Datong, which is the barrier of the entire Beijing and the most important place in the entire Jiubian.
As soon as Zhengde came to Xuanfu, Zhang Yong immediately came to greet him.
Zhengde immediately put other things behind. Pay attention to only one thing, where the little prince will enter the customs.
The little prince is actually not small, at least much more than Zhengde.
Why is he called the little prince, I have to mention a person's name, which is Manduhai. It is the father of the little prince, the wife of Mandulu, but Mandulu died young, according to the rules of the Mongols, whoever marries Manduhai can inherit the tribe of Mandulu, but Manduhai unexpectedly married Mandulu's son, that is, the little prince, Dayan Khan.
He was only six years old when he was made khan.
So he was called the little prince by the historian of the Ming Dynasty for a lifetime.
From the twenty-first year of Chenghua, the little prince began to harass the border. There is even a saying that when Emperor Hongzhi was seriously ill, he only breathed after hearing about the little prince and entering Huamachi, Weizhou, and Huanxian. This is also the reason why Zhengde is angry with Dayan Khan.
Dayan Khan is not a simple figure, he is the descendant of the golden family, and with the support of Manduhai, he defeated all the opponents on the steppe, unified the Mongolian steppe again, and became the recognized Great Khan on the steppe, but this is all a matter of the Hongzhi period, in the late Hongzhi period, Dayan Khan's attack on the Ming Dynasty, from Gansu to Liaodong, thousands of miles of border, almost no year.
In the fourth year of Zhengde, he committed Yansui, surrounded Longzhou, and Huamachi. For six years, he committed the forts along the border. Nine years, the offender Xuanda. Breaking Ningwu Pass, the deepest to reach Ulzhou, special reminder, although Ulzhou is in Shanxi, but it is very close to Beijing, just west of Fangshan, now Ul County, is the suburbs of Beijing.
Ten years of Zhengde, committed Guyuan, and eleven years, committed Arieskou.
If all Dayan Khan's military operations are marked on the map, you can only get four words, and they are getting more and more intense.
This is by no means a military operation that has been seen in the first instance.
After Zhengde summarized all the details, he asked: "This time, the little prince, where will he enter the customs?" ”
Zhu Bin said: "Little prince, where to enter the customs, the minister is not clear, but where the little prince will fight." But the minister had a guess. ”
"Where?"
"Datong."
"Why?"
"Because the border of Shaanxi is a poor place, even Huamachi has been captured several times. Along the border of Shaanxi, for the little prince, there is no oil and water. ”
"It's a good one with no oil and water." Zhengde sneered self-deprecatingly.
Shaanxi was originally a bitter place, the only relatively wealthy place, or Guanzhong, the little prince has not yet been able to attack the hinterland of Guanzhong, and Huamachi is the station of the trilateral general system, Wang Yue was stationed here at the beginning, and wanted to use this as a base to attack the Hetao, such an important place, has been conquered by the little prince several times, where is there any oil and water.
The human head is not a leek, it can grow after cutting.
The Mongols have always been on the border for money, and without oil and water military operations, no one will support them.
The border of Shaanxi has made the Mongols not go to the point of shooting, which shows what kind of hell the border of Shaanxi has become. As soon as he thought of this, Zhengde's heart tightened suddenly. He forcibly pressed and said: "Since this is the case, I will send an order to Wang Xun to keep Datong well, and if there is any mistake, let him come to see him." ”
Qiu Ju immediately recorded it and said, "Your Majesty, in what name did it send it to him. ”
Zhengde muttered two sentences, and there was immediately a question, how to say it. The scope of the emperor's decree is not unlimited, and there is a sentence in the Zizhi Tongjian, "Without going through Luantai, Fengge, how can it be an edict." "Even if you don't go through Luantai, how can the annex of the Feng Pavilion be called a holy decree? After Wu Zetian ascended the throne, he renamed Zhongshu Province as Luantai and Menxia Province as Fengge.
In other words, without the attachment of the Chinese book, the holy decree has no legal effect at all.
The same is true in Daming, what Zhengde himself wrote is the middle purpose, and this thing has no legal effect at all. In other words, if Wang Xun, the chief soldier of Datong, is a little stronger, he will be the same as Zhang Qin last time. If you don't do it, Zhengde really can't do anything about him, why? Chaos and disobedience, this is the political correctness of the Ming Dynasty.
Qiu Ju saw that Zhengde was embarrassed, and his eyes turned and said: "Your Majesty, if you don't sign as the Prime Minister, the Chief Military Officer of the World Soldiers and Horses, this will just govern Wang Xun." When the battle started, he couldn't resist if he wanted to. Could it be that he can stop fighting halfway through? ”
Zhengde's brain turned and he thought that this method was good, but the prime minister's general military officer in the world was a bit unpleasant. It is better to call the Governor-General, the Mighty General of Military Affairs, and the Chief of the Army. Zhengde is trying to say something.
Zhu Houhuang was confused, and immediately came out to dissuade him and said, "Your Majesty can't." When Taizu and Chengzu led the troops, how could he have used such methods, all the soldiers and horses in the world are kings, and whoever does not obey his orders can be beheaded. Why bother, if Your Majesty is worried, the minister is willing to pass on the decree for Your Majesty, if Wang Xun does not listen, the minister will behead him for His Majesty. ”
Confucianism attaches the most importance to the word "name", and the beginning is the correct name. Maybe modern people don't think it's anything to have a few more titles, but Zhengde really has to put on the title of a great general for himself, which is definitely a big black spot. And Zhu Houhuang also felt that Zhengde was a little scared by the civil officials, it seems that he doesn't know how many times he has given orders, and he has been ignored by the below. However, Zhengde didn't notice that Wang Xun was just a military minister, not a civil official.
Civil officials despised the emperor, despised the eunuchs, and despised the military attachés.
The emperor could despise the eunuchs and despise the military attachés.
As a contempt chain, the lowest-end military attache will not dare to harden the emperor without a civilian official as a backer. And among the ministers, not everyone is Zhang Qin.
Zhengde was said by Zhu Houhuang, and his heart also plucked up, he took Taizu and Chengzu as an example since he was a child. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Zhang Yong, Xuanda, can you control it." ”
Zhang Yong said: "Please rest assured, the ministers have been running the Xuanfu for many years, and they all listen to Your Majesty's orders." ”
"Okay, there are elite soldiers from Xuanfu, plus the Beijing camp and the four other armies, it's enough, let's see, can you transfer some troops from Liaodong, as for Wang Xun',---" Zhengde's eyes went around everyone and said: "Wei Bin, you go, do you know how to do it?" ”
Wei Bin has also made military merits, at least in the military, he is not a novice, maybe he himself does not know how to fight, but there must be people who can fight. At the beginning of the rebellion of the king of peace, he also went into battle. However, when Wei Bin was in Liu Jin, he was Liu Jin's loyal dog. After Liu Jin fell, he was idle by Zhengde, and today Zhengde brought them all along.
Wei Bin was overjoyed.
What the eunuch is most afraid of, the most afraid is that the master forgets himself. At this moment, see Zhengde assigning tasks to Wei Bin. Wei Bin couldn't wait to cry with joy. said: "The slave and maid have the order." ”
This appearance made Zhu Houhuang a little worried, would this big eunuch be willing to make meritorious contributions because he had been idle for too long. Even if Wang Xun obeyed his orders, this was made disobedient by this eunuch.
Zhu Houhuang hurriedly said: "Father-in-law Wei is here, and it is a great achievement to supervise Wang Xun to obey his orders." Please also ask Gonggong Wei to think about it. ”
Zhengde heard what Zhu Houhuang meant, and said, "Don't make extraneous branches." ”
After Wei Bin answered the order, he immediately went down to make arrangements.
The army did not move, the grain and grass went first, and the savings of the Xuanfu were okay, which could only support the actions of the army, but when the army moved, it was a mess. The garrison where the army was advancing, and the way the reinforcements came, and the food on the road, and many small things. Zhengde came out this time, and he didn't bring a single Wenchen. These trivial issues must be arranged by righteousness.
However, fortunately, most of the people around Zhengde are generals, and it is impossible to expect them to win the battle, but how the army marches and how to deal with these military chores is handy. Zhu Houhuang also followed them to learn these things, which made Zhu Houhuang feel that he had learned a lot of things.
In any case, this was a mobile operation with more than 100,000 troops, and the number of troops that Zhengde had to fight the Mongols head-on was probably not much, but there were twice as many people as that.
In this way, more than 100,000 people are organized, not waiting for idlers to reach it.
