Chapter 39: Deliberation
In the tent of the commander of the Ming army after the war, Zhu Qiyu was dressed in golden mountain armor and covered in blood, but this did not weaken the heroic spirit on his body at all, but added a bit of solemn atmosphere, which made people even more afraid to face it and consciously condescend to it.
After almost a night of fierce fighting, Zhu Qiyu's face did not have the slightest tiredness.
He held the hilt of the knife with his left hand and listened carefully to Yu Qian, who was on the side, reporting the battle situation last night.
"In this way, our army won a big victory in this battle, but it's a pity that he was not captured alive first, but it is a pity that he was not caught today, and I am afraid that he will come back in the future." Zhu Qiyu said with a solemn face.
Of course, this is just a faΓ§ade.
If he really wanted to capture Ye Xian alive, he didn't have to sigh here, if he shouted two more times last night, the cavalry under his command that was more terrifying than the jackals would have been captured first.
The most important reason why Zhu Qiyu did not let the soldiers capture it first, but let it go, is that without this "treasure", he would have one less way to deal with Zhu Qizhen.
You must know that the corrective power of history is extremely terrifying, although the current Wara army is temporarily defeated by him, but Wang Zhen's two hundred and five are still alive, and Zhu Qizhen still deeply believes in him as a gentleman, so there is a high probability that the change of Tumubao will still be staged.
has come to the Ming Dynasty, whether it is for his own selfish interests or for the Ming Dynasty in history, Zhu Qiyu has a reason to be called the emperor.
But what makes Zhu Qiyu a headache is that in feudal society, it is very troublesome to seek power and usurp the throne, even if the soldiers are wide and the battlefield strength can be able to press the emperor's troops to the ground and rub wildly, but after taking the throne, it is still inevitable that there will be a lot of resistance.
There is no other reason, just because the emperor is the place of righteousness, the son of heaven, and the destiny of heaven.
Even if the emperor did something wrong, as long as it was not a great treachery to the extreme, it would not be abolished, let alone seized power by force.
What's more, the Empress Dowager Sun is still alive today, and the Empress Dowager Sun is an absolute emperor party, dedicated to Zhu Qizhen, plus the weight of the Empress Dowager's decree and the emperor's decree are almost comparable, which is also orthodox.
If you want to cut Zhu Qizhen, then you must also abolish the Queen Mother.
In fact, from the outsider's point of view, since the emperor has been cut, it is not impossible to abolish the queen mother.
The words are said lightly, you must know that it is a feudal era now, and it is a big crime to seek power and usurp the throne, and it is a big crime of unfilial piety to abolish the queen mother for no reason.
These two charges are on his body, Zhu Qiyu, who was fortunate enough to play Euro Fengyun 4 in his previous life, naturally knows the consequences, and when the time comes, the rebellion within the Ming Dynasty and all over the country will be terrifying.
Tsk, Zhu Qiyu didn't dare to think about it at all.
Although there is Zhuyu in front of the Chengzu Emperor Zhu Di's Jingjing Battle, rashly leading troops to cut down the emperor, or forcing him to abdicate, is always not the first choice here, but the second choice here in Zhu Qiyu.
The first choice is tantamount to getting rid of Zhu Qizhen with the help of the change of Tumubao.
Therefore, it is not so much that Zhu Qiyu does not want to kill first, it is better to say that Zhu Qiyu has a hundred hopes in his heart to recover from this failure first and grow his momentum.
He, Zhu Qiyu, could count on the change of Tumubao, otherwise he would have to personally get on the horse and cut his brother.
Although Zhu Qiyu really wants to cut Zhu Qizhen, after all, Zhu Qizhen's brain is not normal until now, you must know that the main purpose of Zhu Qiyu's expedition this time is actually to find gold mines? It's unreasonable!
In addition, there is such a thing as Wang Zhen jumping, let alone Zhu Qiyu, if it weren't for the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers, plus Zhu Qizhen is indeed the son of heaven, I am afraid that many ministers in the court have already sharpened their knives.
It's really cool to cut people, but Zhu Qiyu knows that if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan.
Holding back the idea of cutting people right now is for the sake of a brilliant future.
So in fact, Zhu Qiyu was praying silently at this time.
First, you must stand up, and this king will rely on you to cut down Zhu Qizhen.
Of course, Zhu Qiyu's series of "brothers, friends, brothers, and brothers" ideas are naturally impossible to tell others.
Today's Zhu Qiyu is a handsome man who has returned victoriously, and he is dedicated to the Ming Dynasty.
What rebellion? What chops the emperor? It's all nonsense!
"Warat is now powerful, and it is not easy for us to defeat with the merits of His Highness, and it is not easy for Warat and Tatar to move according to the water and grass, and now the number of our army is less than 60,000, and the grain and grass are also insufficient, and it is not feasible to completely insert into the desert and smash the entire Warat and Tatar." Han Dang, who was sitting below, said with a flattering smile: "With the courage of His Royal Highness, this defeat was also the first, and the capture of his eldest son and daughter is enough to prove that this battle is meritorious. β
Han Dang's words are true, the army has been on the expedition for nearly a month, and has experienced several major battles in a short period of time, although they are all victorious, but the soldiers are inevitably sleepy and lacking.
What's more, it is really not necessary to attack Warat and Tatar again to consume military strength, and it is the best choice for the class to return to Beijing.
Hearing this, Yu Qian also agreed: "Our army has won a big victory today, and it has already hit Warat, although so, as Commander Han said, if you want to wipe out Warat and Tatar in one fell swoop, even if it takes decades for Taizu and Chengzu, our army is not enough in number, and the grain and grass cannot withstand consumption, and it is impossible to complete it in one battle." β
Then Yu Qian added: "And although Warat leads the grassland tribes, but its momentum has now been killed by us, it is unlikely that it will take a breath without a year or two, and the ancient language arrogant army will be defeated, not to mention that we are not very familiar with the grassland terrain, and it may be dangerous to rush into the army. I might as well wait for the class teacher to return to the court. β
"The last general and others seconded it." All the generals said in unison.
Zhu Qiyu didn't really want to fight in his heart, he was not afraid of losing, but he was worried that if he used too much force, he would directly fight first and then not be able to get up, so who would fight the battle of Tumubao?
Besides, now that he has returned from a great victory, even if the class teacher returns to the court, no one will have any objections.
The people in the capital, it's too late to welcome them.
Seeing that the generals' intentions coincided with his own, Zhu Qiyu was overjoyed.
It's just that as the commander of the march, he still has to do enough face work.
Hearing the words of the generals, Zhu Qiyu frowned, pretended to think about it a little, and only nodded with difficulty for a while, sighed heavily and said: "Since everyone said so, this king has nothing to say, the army has been here for nearly a month, and has experienced several major battles, ordered the whole army to be rectified for three days, and sent a thousand-mile fast horse to send the war report to Shuntianfu, and after receiving the holy decree, I will wait for the division to return to the court." β
As soon as these words came out, all the generals received the order.
"Obey!"
