Chapter 256: There's still a lot to do
"Mongolia is doing things again?"
Zhu Youzhen couldn't believe his eyes, after all, in his eyes, today's Mongolia should have been oppressed by the Ming Dynasty and unable to resist.
But now the fold in his hand is full of a large number of tribes in western Mongolia, and they are constantly increasing their grain procurement in Daming.
And that's not all.
Desperate conditions of purchase have been applied to all possible trade in the acquisition of weapons.
Prices are constantly being pushed up in order to get more food and weapons.
It's like you're going to start a war.
Zhu Youzhen's brows tightened, he didn't understand what the Mongolian tribes in the west wanted to do for a while.
After all, they have always been in the Ming Dynasty's trade object, and it stands to reason that their lives should be very good now, and they invaded the Ming Dynasty...
Do they really have the guts?
What happened to the Mongol tribes in the east.. They didn't see it?
At this moment, Zhu Youzhen suddenly thought of another person, that was Bi Zisu, who had defeated tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry in Liaodong head-on.
should be more experienced in these, and at the same time, Zhu Youzhen also summoned Meng Tu.
The two came quickly, mainly because the Heavenly Tiger Army in Liaodong had already completed a rotation, and they were also rotated back.
"Minister. Bi Zisu knocked to see His Majesty. ”
"Subordinate Monto.."
Waving his hand, Zhu Youzhen said repeatedly: "Okay, good!" It's okay, there's no need to salute .. I have important things to look for right now. ”
After that, Zhu Youzhen, whose face changed, took out a map of the Ming Dynasty from the dragon case behind him.
After unfolding, he said to the two of them: "Both of them are commanders in the Battle of Pingliao, and I have summoned you to the palace today, but there is one thing I don't understand. ”
Bi Zisu's expression changed, and he said: "Your Majesty... Just say it! ”
Mongt nodded.
"You see... I have just received news that the various tribes in western Mongolia have been moving frequently recently, and there is a great intention to start a war with an entire army."
"What do you two think about this?"
Bi Zisu suddenly understood something in his heart.
The emperor was so anxious to summon the two of them into the palace, and it was really for this matter.
"Your Majesty. . . Nowadays, the changes in western Mongolia have long been thought of by the ministers, since they began to carry out various trades with our Ming Dynasty, especially the wool trade; All of them have benefited the tribes of the entire western region. It's also getting stronger and stronger.."
"But after the battle with my Ming Dynasty, the Mongolian tribes in the east have been greatly injured... Under such conditions: It would be strange if the Mongol tribes in the west did not move.."
Hearing this, Zhu Youzhen also understood the taste.
The Mongol tribes in the west are clearly invading the east, and the purpose is that Zhu Youzhen can guess some.
You can't beat Houjin, so you came to bully me, and then you were fooled by Houjin to beat Daming, and as a result, you were beaten and bruised, and now it's not as good as me..
Then I'm definitely going to take revenge..
What's more, the Mongolian tribes in the east now occupy the best pastures in the Mongolian steppe.
You can't blow sand in the northwest strongly.
A group of old and weak people live in the fertile steppes of the east.
It is still necessary to respect the principle of the law of the jungle..
"If it is according to what Aiqing sees, the battle between the Mongolian tribes in the east and the west this time, what should I do? Do you need to meddle in it?"
Zhu Youzhen's words had just finished speaking.
Bi Zisu on the side shook his head and said, "Your Majesty.. This matter, according to the minister's view. Da Ming stood by and watched rather than intervened. ”
Why is that? If the Mongol tribes in the west defeat the eastern Mongols, then the whole of Mongolia will be unified again."
Bi Zisu smiled and said, "Your Majesty.. Of course, the unification of Mongolia is what the Ming Dynasty does not want to see, but the eastern part of Mongolia today may not be as weak as the Mongolian tribal leaders in the west think. ”
Zhu Youzhen seemed to recall something.
With a little consternation, he said, "I remembered... Before last winter.."
"Exactly! It's not just last winter, the Ming Dynasty's support for the east has not ended, although it only stays at the trade level, but with the ferocity of the eastern Mongols.."
"The tribes in western Mongolia may not be able to get much benefit."
Speaking of this, Zhu Youzhen also understood what Bi Zisu meant, nodded and said, "Then this matter is over, I will be relieved."
What is the best Mongolia:
Mongolia that can't defeat the Ming is a very good Mongolia, and he can't have the strength to attack the Ming yet.
..
But it didn't take a few days.
The tribes of western Mongolia put together a diplomatic convoy to go to the capital division of the Ming Dynasty, and it was the diplomatic envoys of western Mongolia who sat on it.
And the arrival of such a group of people made Zhu Youzhen feel very nerve-wracking.
"Nope! Missing! I don't see these guys, who doesn't know that they are just here to ask me for an attitude... Can Da Ming's attitude tell them? ”
In the Dongnuan Pavilion, Zhu Youzhen looked at the Ministry of Rites in front of him with a resentful expression.
He couldn't stop muttering.
Seeing that the young emperor in front of him actually played with a child's temper, Lai Zongdao also said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty... It is reasonable that you should receive the Mongolian envoy who came to Daming this time... After all, the Mongolian tribes in the west are still nominally vassals of my Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Youzhen was stunned for a moment and spoke: "What did you say?" ”
Lai Zongdao hurriedly answered: "Most of the so-called tribes in the Mongolian steppe are recognized by my Ming Dynasty, otherwise it is not enough to be called a tribal leader."
Get.. If there is such a relationship.
Zhu Youzhen couldn't find a way to get rid of the Mongol envoys, and of course Zhu Youzhen knew that this kind of thing would only begin.
In the future, with the gradual prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.
There will be more and more neighboring countries that want to make some kind of trouble.
First of all, we have to look at the meaning of Daming, otherwise I guess I won't dare to act rashly.
In this regard, Zhu Youzhen was reluctant to speak, but his heart was like a mirror.
Only when the Ming Dynasty is strong can it win respect, otherwise it is not good to say anything...
..
Intrauterine.
"Xuan Mongol envoys come to see you!!" The familiar eunuch's signature shrill voice sounded, and Zhu Youzhen sat on the dragon chair and waited for the Mongols to come to an audience.
Zhu Youzhen, who was not interested, looked a little bored.
"The Mongolian envoy Husle Saihan, meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"
After saying that, he knelt on the ground.
"Excuse me. I got it. The.. Call.. What kind of happy envoy, why did you come to my Ming?"
"Your Majesty the Emperor. The Ming Dynasty is the country of the Mongolian suzerain, and His Majesty is the heavenly khan of the steppe! It is only natural that we will come to see us."
The Mongolian envoy with a blushing face and a heartbeat is talking cheaply in a serious way..
