Chapter 819: Da Ming vs Dong Yong

"Now Dongyong is fighting many times in Nanyang, most of the military strength is in Nanyang, Dongyong is only two or three battalions, more than 10,000 people. However, the sailors of the Yongjun army are still very strong and should not be underestimated. Zhang Xuan said.

"In this way, this is a great time to attack Dongyong." Jiajing made no secret of his thoughts.

He couldn't take it anymore.

Jiajing's idea of getting rid of King Yong, in fact, has also been shaken, if King Yong obediently becomes an existence like a domestic vassal king who eats and waits for death, then Jiajing can still let King Yong go, but King Yong is not.

Although King Yong was silent for a year or two, he soon struck again.

It has also expanded the territory of the South Seas a lot.

Jiajing doesn't have a very strong understanding of Dongyong's specific strength, but Dongyong's getting bigger day by day is something that Jiajing can feel.

The royal affairs can't be hidden from people at all, not to mention that when Zhengde passed away, there was such a big movement in Beijing, and there were soldiers fighting in the entire Gyeonggi area, plus Yang Tinghe died, these news could not be concealed at all, and it had already spread, and now everyone knows that the first emperor, that is, Zhengde, did not want to pass the throne to him at all, but wanted to pass it on to King Yong.

It is easy for everyone to think about the current Jiajing Son of Heaven and King Yong together.

In fact, Jiajing has done well during this period of time. Yang Tinghe, Zhang Xuan regardless of their respective positions are capable ministers, although the Ming Dynasty has such and such problems, but the overall momentum is for the better, during the Zhengde period, the emperor and the courtiers are opposites, even if Zhengde makes a lot of efforts, it can't avoid this state, but now Jiajing has changed from heavy military to heavy literature during the Zhengde period. From the coordination of the government and government, Zhang Xuan tried his best to sort out the rule of officials. Jiajing was still relatively good in the early stage.

Of course, it's hard to say about other aspects.

Maybe it's overkill, the border army and the Beijing camp are all under the blow, in fact, what kind of order is given, just because the attitude of the top is tilted, the things that should be given below will naturally drift away by one or two percent, in this case, they have no place to say anything. After the victory of Zhengde Yingcheng, the stability of the nine sides began to slowly collapse.

Zhang Xuan has already felt this sign, but Jiajing has not felt it yet.

After all, the Mongols had lost so badly that even Dayan Khan was killed. In the past ten years, the Mongols have been recuperating and recuperating, and now they have recovered a little vitality, but they are just tempting, and they dare not go south easily. However, if this kind of temptation is not eliminated, a series of edge breakings will begin below.

Barbarians are like that.

But these things can't be told to Jiajing.

Because Jiajing hates to talk about any political achievements of Zhengde, in front of Jiajing, if he says that Zhengde is a little good, Jiajing will be furious and deeply disgusted. But when talking about the stability of the nine sides, it is impossible not to talk about Zhengde, why from the late Zhengde period, there was no war on the nine sides, and now during the Jiajing period, there is a risk of Mongolia going south? Isn't it, Your Majesty is not as good as the first emperor?

No one dares to say that.

Including Zhang Xuan.

In Jiajing's eyes, the world is peaceful now. Even the rebellion has subsided.

The Japanese rebellion, which began in the second year of Jiajing, has been going on for several years.

However, since Yang Yiqing arrived in the southeast, he supervised several provinces, created a new army, and exterminated the Japanese invaders, the Japanese have been suppressed, but the real extermination of the Japanese is because of another thing, that is, Dongyong's recruitment of pirates to attack the Danmu Kingdom. Many pirates on the southeast coast feel that it is really difficult to make a living here, so it is better to go to the South Seas to wash their hands and go ashore.

A large number of pirates left, and Yang Yiqing was naturally overwhelmed. And Xu Hai was also regarded as a blessed general by Yang Yiqing.

From Jiajing's point of view, now that everything inside and outside has been calmed down, there is no one in the DPRK and China who can compete with him for power. Even if there are some civil servants who are not so obedient, it is understandable. And in all places, only in the Liangguang region, there is still a little bit of chaos, and there is no need to use a large army at all, and the magistrate can calm down.

There was also the Cen Meng Rebellion that was about to happen, and under Shen Xiyi's wrist, a large number of toasts put their energy into northern Annan. There are also many battles between each other for the spoils of war. So the toasts have also settled down, and there are still a lot of small chaos, but there are no large-scale rebellions.

The southeast was prepared to exterminate the elite soldiers and good generals, and Dongyong happened to be in the South Seas. Isn't it an opportunity from heaven?

On Dongyong Island, there are only more than 10,000 troops, which are not at all the opponents of hundreds of thousands of troops in the southeast.

It's not a great opportunity, but what is a great opportunity?

Zhang Xuan said: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you should act above board. Your Majesty, if you want to cut the domain, you will order to summon King Yong from now on, and if King Yong does not arrive, it will not be too late to order a requisition. ”

"Pedantic." Jiajing said: "Zhang Qing doesn't have to care about this matter, Gu has already passed the order to Mr. Yang, but Zhang Qing is in charge of the Beijing Division, and he still needs to cooperate well." ”

Zhang Xuan didn't know what to say for a while.

The righteousness seems to be just a virtual thing, but sometimes it is also very important, so Zhang Xuan's meaning should be to stand firm in the name of righteousness, force King Yong to rebel, and be in Beijing in righteousness, and if the current attack on Dongyong, then the righteousness is also in Dongyong, which is very unwise.

This point mainly lies in Zhang Xuan and Jiajing's opinion, how to end the war?

In Jiajing's view, as long as Dongyong Island is taken away, Dongyong will not be able to continue the war, and this conclusion lies in Xia Yan's twists and turns. Xia Yan's description of Dongyong Island is particularly numerous, and distinguishes it from other places in Dongyong, indicating that Dongyong Island is the foundation of Dongyong. If Dongyong Island is lost, Dongyong will die. If the war can be decided in one battle, then it doesn't matter what the general righteousness is.

But Zhang Xuan doesn't think so.

He felt that even after Dongyong Island was taken, with King Yong's ability, he would definitely not be caught. It takes several years for some pirates to be pacified, but Dongyong's strength, several times, dozens of times that of pirates on the southeast coast, how can it be so easy to pacify.

Rather than getting a Dongyong Island and making the southeast coast unstable from now on, it is better to keep Dongyong and open a sea trade, so that the two sides can be safe.

It's just that Jiajing can't wait. His order had already reached Yang Yiqing, but it was just to give Zhang Xuan a step down.

Zhang Xuan's head buzzed, he never expected that Jiajing would say such a thing, but he didn't know what to say for a while, and saluted: "Minister, obey the order." ”

Jiajing watched Zhang Xuan leave the hall, and there was a refreshing feeling in his heart.

It seems that after the shadow of Yang Tinghe, Jiajing does not want the court to have any existence that can oppose his authority, no matter who it is, and Zhang Xuan has won the trust of many young officials in the past two years with his honest style, and he is not afraid of being strong and asking for the people's life, and even a series of governing ideas of Zhang Juzheng in later generations have been inherited and carried forward from Zhang Zhang.

Therefore, Zhang Zhang's authority is getting stronger and stronger.

Jiajing felt that he was going to do something, and he decided that as long as Yang Yiqing could pacify Dongyong, Yang Yiqing would be pulled into the cabinet and let Yang Yiqing and Zhang Xuan fight with each other.

Today's Jiajing is not the Shizu Emperor in history who can skillfully play with political means. But it can also have a bit of style. It's just that he never imagined that Yang Yiqing was handy to Dongyong, and even many people in the court thought so, such as Zhang Xuan, but Yang Yiqing didn't think so.

Yang Yiqing only felt that his scalp was numb in the face of Jiajing's holy decree, and he could only meditate quietly in the middle of the night.

Yang Yiqing understands very well that the troops on the southeast coast seem to be hundreds of thousands, but after removing the guards and the soldiers and horses of Nanjing, which have long been degenerate, there are only tens of thousands of soldiers left, and these tens of thousands of soldiers are still trained on the basis of Shen Xiyi and Zhang Jing's original troops. And then there is Xu Hai's department, which are all pirates who recruit An, and they can be defeated and beaten, but the problem of trust has always existed.

Although the sailor has accumulated some ships, there is still a big gap with Dongyong. Yang Yiqing was very unsure about pacifying Dongyong.
