"It is feasible to return to Tianfu, and it is not an exaggeration to compromise and seek perfection to ensure the stability of the Ming Dynasty, but a hundred years later, how should I face the ancestors of my Zhu family, how to face the emperor's grandfather, and how should I face the soldiers who died on the battlefield and fought with the enemy for the peace of the country!"

"You want to tell them that the descendants of the Zhu family are not angry, and the rivers and mountains that the emperor's grandfather fought against Mobei in the five expeditions were handed over to Wara? If you want to talk about Jiaozhi, after all, it was taken away by the descendants of the Nali family? If you want to talk about Kanto, did you lose it in the end? ”

"If I don't want Zhu Zhanji's face, I don't want it, but what about you, when you see those soldiers and generals a hundred years later, you can really have a clear conscience?"

From beginning to end, Zhu Zhanji's tone was very calm, but it was calm and frightening.

There was not the slightest emotional fluctuation in the tone, but all the anger and determination were vividly expressed.

Although none of these officials said that they would give up these places, according to their methods, Jiaozhi, Kanto, and Mobei would inevitably fall into trouble if they did not get the support of the imperial court for a long time.

It is not wrong to retreat to Yingtianfu and sit in Yingtianfu to coordinate the overall situation, but it is to give up the entire north of the Ming Dynasty.

What will the entire northern provinces think when they see that the imperial court has withdrawn from Shuntianfu.

What will those soldiers at the border pass think, the emperor himself ran away first, and fooled the soldiers to serve on the battlefield?

There is no such good thing in the world.

In the end, how to choose the right one, and how to choose as the wise monarchs of all dynasties, Zhu Zhanji did not know.

But he only knew one thing.

The imperial court can't retreat!

Not only do you not retreat, but you have to fight!

It's not interesting for your own people to fight your own people, if you want to fight, you will fight foreign enemies!

If you have power, you can use it on foreign enemies!

"Yang Shiqi!"

"The minister is here!"

"Order Ma Bao to order his fleet's treasure ships to patrol and intercept the Japanese ships along the coast of the East China Sea, and cut off the escape route of the Japanese invaders!"

"Yes!"

"Order you, Yang Shiqi, to be the general supervisor of this anti-Kou operation, and transfer troops, grain and grass from all yamen in strict places, and strangle all the scourges of the Japanese in the cradle!"

Regarding Zhu Zhanji's order, Yang Shiqi obviously didn't expect it, but after being only slightly stunned, he immediately replied: "Weichen obeys!" ”

After saying that, Zhu Zhanji turned to look at the Zhang Ben and said, "Zhang Ben! ”

"Wechen is here!"

"I order you to go to the land of Jiaozhi immediately, let you be the governor of Jiaozhi counterinsurgency, and have the right to control the political envoys of Jiaozhi, I will hand over all the military and government affairs of Jiaozhi to you, and if you can't exterminate the rebels, don't come back to see me!"

This is the first time since Zhang Ben entered Beijing that he was sent by Zhu Zhanji, so naturally he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and he replied: "Your Highness, rest assured, Weichen will serve his life!" The war in Jiaozhi is uneven for a day, and Zhang Ben will not return for a day! ”

In the end, Zhu Zhanji looked at the vassal kings present, and then walked over slowly, arched his hand to the vassal kings in front of him, and said: "Uncles, now that the Ming Dynasty is at the point of life and death, there are no available soldiers around my nephew, I would like to ask your uncles to lead the troops in their respective fiefdoms and put down the rebellion in various uprisings in the territory according to the orders of the military department!" ”

Listening to Zhu Zhanji's words, as well as such a respectful and solemn request in front of all the ministers present, those vassal kings did not hesitate to look at each other one by one, although the strength of their feudal fiefdoms is very limited, and there is no threat to the entire imperial court, but there is still no problem in quelling some ordinary uprisings and exterminating hundreds of rebel armies that may not even be fully equipped.

After thinking of this, everyone did not hesitate at all, and also gave Zhu Zhanji enough face, and said: "Obey Your Highness's orders!" ”

Zhu Zhanji called them uncles in front of everyone, and he was respectful in everything, how could they really be ignorant.

The difference between monarchs and ministers is still very clear.

And after hearing everyone's promise, Zhu Zhanji also said respectfully: "My nephew has thanked you uncles again!" ”

After speaking, he turned around and looked at Yang Rong, one of the three Yangs in history, and said, "Yang Rong! ”

"The minister is here!"

"Order you to take over Yang Shiqi's position as the secretary of the military department, and coordinate military affairs in the capital!"

As soon as Zhu Zhanji's words came out, everyone was shocked again.

Yang Shiqi rushed to the coastal areas to exterminate the scourge of the Japanese invaders, and Yang Rong took over as the secretary of the Ministry of War, which is nothing, but it is the responsibility of the Ministry of War to coordinate military affairs in the capital, but now His Royal Highness Taisun said it again, is it possible, His Royal Highness Taisun is leaving?

Really.

Just when everyone was shocked, Zhu Zhanji also opened his mouth and said: "The Nawarat Department has attacked me several times, how can the land of Mobei that the emperor's grandfather has fought all his life take so easily?" This time, I will personally lead the 5,000 cavalry on the outskirts of Beijing to Mobei and personally cut off the head of Na Luo Tuhuan! ”

Zhu Zhanji was very clear in his heart.

Although Mobei is now fully controlled by the Ming army, the degree of development of Mobei and the problem of population density are very limited.

It is precisely because of this that many people still put their abacus there even though they know that Mobei has fallen into the hands of the Ming army, and they always covet the land of Mobei.

Therefore, this time, when Na Luo Tuhuan tried to get his hands on Mobei again, he wanted to give him a hard blow!

is also telling everyone that Mobei is the land of his Ming army!

No one should try to get their hands on it at any time!

Of course, in addition to this, it is also out of concern for Nayuros Tuhuan, after all, this person is the person who unified the entire Mobei in the history of Warat.

Compared to his son, Yexian, this man is the one who revives Warat.

Perhaps because of the thousands of years of history in China, Rongdi in the north has always been the biggest threat to the Central Plains of China.

Therefore, as long as there is the slightest crisis in the north, it will never be acceptable to Zhu Zhanji.

Especially now that the overall situation of Mobei has been decided, how many years have passed, and they have not had such a good life in China.

In the absence of the threat of foreign enemies, they can truly let go of their hands and feet to develop.

He would never allow such a good situation to be broken!

At the same time, the crisis of the Ming Dynasty seems to be full of crises in all directions, but in Zhu Zhanji's eyes, there are actually only two real crises.

The first is the second uncle and the third uncle outside the gate, and the second is the Wara Department in the north of the desert.

As for the Wako, Cochin, and Nu'er to do the things of Dusi.

In these areas, except for the Japanese in the eastern coastal areas, there were no troops stationed in advance after the deployment of reserve Japanese troops.

In other places, in fact, there are original garrisons of the Ming army.

In this case, even if they rebel, it will not cause much crisis in a short period of time.

After sending important officials of the imperial court, it is believed that the situation will be eased to a certain extent.

As for Namobei, although Yu Qian is also there, Yu Qian at this time has not yet grown to the level of Yu Shaobao in history, and it is unknown whether he can control the situation.

In addition, the distance between the cities is too far, and it is still too difficult to form a connection with each other, whether it is supply or other problems, it is not to be underestimated.

Once those cities in Mobei are occupied by those Warat people, he Zhu Zhanji will not have the capital to burn the city for the second time.

It is impossible to gather a large army to encircle and suppress in a short period of time like the old man.

Once it is developed by using the city in Mobei, it will be difficult to restrain it when the time comes.

It was even dozens of times more difficult than the old man to restrain those Mongolian tribes at that time.

So, he had to crush it before anything happened!

Of course, the reason why he chose the Warat Department in Mobei as his first target was also because the cavalry under his command just restrained these steppe cavalry.

If the other party despises it, it may be possible to fight to the fullest.

After all, the total strength of the Navarat tribe was only about 20,000 men.

Compared with the Japanese who could retreat to the sea at any time, the Jiaozhi rebels who hid between the mountains and forests, and the Jurchen tribes in the northeast, they were the best to defeat.

Now the entire Ming Dynasty is like a chessboard in all directions.

Since it is a game of chess to break the game, it is natural to pick up soft persimmons and pinch them.

Defeat all the way first, and you can give confidence to the people of the world.

Stabilize the situation.

However, as soon as Zhu Zhanji said that he was going to lead the army to Mobei in person, the surrounding ministers stood up one by one.

"No! Your Highness! ”

"Your Highness is now the backbone of the court and the Ming Dynasty, if Your Highness goes to Mobei, I am afraid that the hearts of the people in the world will be unstable!"

"Yes, Your Highness, now the army of King Zhao of Han is outside the Shanhaiguan, if His Highness goes to Mobei, I am afraid they will attack Shanhaiguan as soon as possible!"

"Your Highness, by all means!"

"Your Highness is where the century-old foundation of the imperial court is, if Your Highness loses, then the Ming Dynasty is in danger!"

"There are more than 20,000 cavalry in the Nawarat Division, but there are only 5,000 cavalry in the suburbs of Beijing, how can they be the opponents of those Varat Divisions?"

“........”

Obviously, everyone disagreed with Zhu Zhanji's decision to personally send troops to Mobei.

It's too dangerous.

However, in the face of everyone's persuasion, Zhu Zhanji did not waver in his heart at all.

Instead, he looked at everyone present and asked, "If I don't go to Mobei this time, who of you dares to say anything about defeating the Warat Division?" If these cities fall into their hands, and our Ming army has no way or ability to encircle Mobei on a large scale in a short period of time, I want to ask you, three or five years later, when Nawara becomes bigger, how should we solve it? ”

Faced with Zhu Zhanji's question, everyone present was dumbfounded.

They really don't know what to say about Zhu Zhanji's question.

But Zhu Zhanji didn't intend to stop there, and continued to ask: "Just now Yang Shiqi and Zhang Ben both said that the 500,000 Ming troops outside the Shanhai Pass are the source of the disaster, and I agree with this, but what if you want to break the situation?" ”

"If you don't mention whether it is possible to defeat the 500,000 army outside the Shanhai Pass, and what will it lead to, just say that the 500,000 army will be defeated, and under the killing of each other, how many troops will my Ming army still have to use?"

"This battle outside Shanhaiguan cannot be fought, and it cannot be fought. As long as I do it, my Ming Dynasty ten-year foundation will be short, and the things outside the Shanhai Pass can only be slowly figured out, and the 100,000 reserve soldiers and the original garrison in the pass will confront it in the pass, which is the best way now. ”

"But aren't we going to do anything?"

"Sit back and watch the land of the Ming Dynasty be occupied by foreign enemies? The people are being taken captive by foreign enemies? ”

"This time I personally conquered Warat, which is the beginning of this breakthrough! As long as the Warat Department is broken and the pressure of the imperial court is reduced, the 50,000 troops of the entire Mobei can be liberated, and as long as the scourge of the Japanese in the southeast coastal area is eliminated, Ma Bao's treasure fleet will go north along the coast and land on the coast of Nuer Gandusi, and I will lead tens of thousands of troops in Mobei to reinforce at the same time. ”

"Under the attack from three sides, you can ensure the stability of the Nuer Gandu Division, and maybe you can do your best in one battle to completely exterminate those Jurchen tribes who pretend to submit to the imperial court!"

"In this way, the 500,000 Ming troops outside the Shanhaiguan can form a north-south encirclement trend, and in the case that the disasters in the Ming Dynasty have been eliminated, the Han King Zhao Wang outside the Shanhaiguan can form a deterrent, and gather the strength of the whole country to focus on this place."

"In the face of pressure from all directions, I believe that my second and third uncles will make the best choice!"

In a moment, Zhu Zhanji said all his thoughts.

In the face of the dilemma, it is a way to defeat the 500,000 army outside Shanhaiguan and force the entire Ming Dynasty to eliminate the disasters around it.

But it is also a way to eliminate all the disasters around us first, and then concentrate troops and energy to deal with the 500,000 troops outside the Shanhai Pass.

Even compared to the first option, the second option will have much smaller losses.

At the very least, the combined strength of the Navara, Jiaozhi, and Jurchen tribes was far inferior to the 500,000 troops outside the Shanhai Pass.

The combat effectiveness was also far inferior to the 500,000 Ming army.

Since the time and place are not in me, let's play a general trend!

It may sound unrealistic to talk about this now, but it's all typed!

But it's impossible to know only when you fight first!

Although Zhu Zhanji's remarks made everyone present see a possibility, this is only a possibility.

If you want to defeat Warat, and then solve the Kwantung issue, or even attack the 500,000 Ming troops outside Shanhai Pass from the north and south, not to mention the difficulty, even if you can, how much time will it take?

One year, two years?

Will the King of Han and King Zhao outside the Shanhai Pass give the court so much time?!

Yang Shiqi was the first to object, and said: "But has Your Highness ever thought that once the news of His Highness leading the army to the north spreads, the King of Han and King Zhao outside the Shanhai Pass will do it as soon as possible!" At that time, if the soldiers in the pass can't stop it, the entire Ming Dynasty may fall into the hands of King Zhao of Han! ”

If it were carried out by others according to His Royal Highness Taisun's words, maybe he Yang Shiqi would not have said anything, but now, it was His Royal Highness Taisun who personally set out to fight.

This means something completely different!

At the moment of crisis, His Royal Highness Taisun, who is the king of the people, left the center of the imperial court, which has too much impact on the hearts of the people in the world!

The grandson is here, even if he Yang Shiqi leaves the court and Zhang Ben leaves the court, it will not have much impact on the overall situation.

But once the grandson is gone, the hearts of the people in this capital alone may be unstable!

However, after hearing Yang Shiqi's words, Zhu Zhanji immediately shook his head, sighed again, and said: "If the destiny of heaven is like this, I, Zhu Zhanji, have nothing to say, but here in me, even if the second and third uncles are allowed to sit on this throne, Mobei and Kanto will never be lost!" ”

Then he pointed to the dragon chair behind him and said: "The emperor sitting on the dragon chair is not called Zhu Zhanji, but the ancestral land will never be touched by outsiders!" ”

"Don't persuade you, my mind has been decided."

After speaking, Zhu Zhanji looked up and shouted around: "Zhu Zhanji! ”

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's shout, Zhu Zhanyong, who was hiding in the corner, walked out in surprise.

He didn't know what his eldest brother was telling him to do at this time.

After all, his role has always been just to run errands for his eldest brother and do some money trading.

But when he walked out, Zhu Zhanji pointed at him and said: "After I leave, this capital will be controlled by my third brother, Zhu Zhanyong, assisted by Yang Rong and Yang Pu, and coordinate the overall situation!" ”
