Chapter 436: Fight
Li Dongyang's abacus beads clicked, and Mingli pushed the compound set to the top, but in fact, he divided the compound set into one or two million taels and counted it.
Anyway, Emperor Zhengde has been in that position for a long time, and most of the courtiers understand that the surplus silver of the imperial court is either used for military and political matters such as repetition, or for practical matters such as the people's livelihood.
It's great to allocate hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to Wang Shouren for the military salary of the sailor, but this year's disposable taels of silver have exceeded 17 million, even if you find a reason to build a library from scratch, there is still a lot left.
Pavilion elders and university scholars are all decent words, and when it is their turn to really fight for silver, they are really ruthless.
"Your Majesty, Weichen has a book."
There is a person at the back of the column of the military department, he has a straight face in the national character, a long beard, and he is still a beautiful beard.
Zhu Houzhao remembered him, and he wanted Yang Zengrong, a member of the military department who wanted to return to the army for two years.
"In the first year of Zhengde, the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars fought in the grassland, this battle, the situation of the enemy and us has obviously changed, the grassland must fall into infighting, at this moment, I Ming Zhongxing suddenly rose, the military prestige was greatly inspired, the soldiers, the elite as a sharp blade, the general, brave as a tiger and a leopard, the treasury surplus silver amounted to 10 million taels. This is a God-given opportunity, if Your Majesty wants to drive the grassland north and set the trend of the Han and Tang Dynasties, he should raise troops to the north this year. If God does not take it, he will be blamed. When Dayan Khan unifies Mongolia, by that time, it will be ten times more difficult to recreate than it is today! ”
"Ridiculous!"
As soon as Yang Zengrong finished speaking, someone interrupted him.
The person who spoke was none other than Peng Ze, the governor of Henan.
He shook his sleeves and arched his hand towards Zhu Houzhao, "Your Majesty, Sun Tzu's Art of War is cloudy: soldiers, major events of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be ignored." The army conquered the Tatars, and the whole country shook when it moved. Now that Your Majesty has been on the throne for less than two years, the situation in the world and the silver in the treasury have just improved.
Moreover, the minister is not ignorant of the Tatar situation, but he does not know whether to fight this year or not, let alone what it will be. Even if they really fight, ordinary masters also know the truth of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, since it is the internal fighting of the left and right wings of Mongolia, then let them fight for a few years first. They are exhausted, and we are waiting for work, and this is the best way to go.
Moreover, Dayan Khan did not have the strength to quickly unify the right-wing Mongolia, otherwise, where is the so-called 'God-given opportunity', Mongolia should have been unified a long time ago! ”
Yang Zengrong didn't let go, "According to what Peng Zhongcheng said, it's too early to repeat the set in three years, isn't it better to wait for another three or five years?" ”
Zhu Houzhao raised his eyelids, he was not happy to wait like this. He understands the truth that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, but if you don't hurry up and deal with this kind of potential opponent when you have the strength, what are you waiting for?
Waiting for the enemy to weaken himself?
If you have this illusion, you don't deserve to be strong.
When several members of the cabinet heard this, their hearts also tightened. This Yang Zengrong is not a good stubble, he hit above seven inches all of a sudden, and today's battle, fighting back and forth, fighting for the emperor's heart.
The emperor's young son of heaven is just when he wants to make a difference, how can he wait a few more years. The key to waiting is to expect the enemy to become weaker, this is, damn, what if people really become stronger?
Dayan Khan was not an incompetent leader.
On this point, it is useless for Peng Ze to say that no matter how fanciful he is. Maybe it's backfired.
But Peng Ze was not stupid, he immediately knew the insidiousness in Yang Zengrong's words, "Don't talk about him left and right, when did I say that I would wait for another three or five years?" ”
"Then Peng Zhongcheng means next year."
Does this seem to be a trap?
Peng Ze didn't dare to answer for a while.
Zhang Fuhua, the imperial history of Zuodu, came out tremblingly and saluted Zhu Houzhao, "Your Majesty swore when he first established the national policy that he would definitely recover millions of acres of fertile land on both sides of the Hetao in this life, and for Tianmingzhi, if it is not achieved in one year, it will be three years, three years if it is not successful, five years will not be successful, and even ten or twenty years will be done!" Listening to His Majesty's words that day, the old minister only felt excited and couldn't help himself. Moreover, the old minister remembered His Majesty's repeated orders and reaffirmations, and pragmatism was the first priority in governing the country. And at present, if the five-year complex is better than the three-year duplicate, will the imperial court still give priority to the best? ”
The emperor generally does not mess around when he is in power, and this sentence is so that Zhu Houzhao can only answer one answer.
And answered, the advantage that Yang Zengrong had established was gone.
So the bearded man also glanced at the old guy with some dissatisfaction.
Of course, you still have to listen to the emperor.
Zhu Houzhao has a deep understanding of their thoughts, and they don't have much advantage in three years or two years, if they don't understand this 'set', Yang Zengrong will say that they will die here.
"The repetition is national politics, and national politics must not be a little rash, of course, the best is the first."
Zhang Fuhua was a little satisfied and a little dissatisfied after hearing this, satisfied that the emperor followed his words, and dissatisfied that he didn't say dead.
In terms of cunning, the emperor is not bad.
Yang Zengrong's reaction is still fast, optimal, optimal, how do you prove that waiting here for three or five years is optimal? Therefore, what the emperor is thinking, this is two words.
"Your Majesty! Weichen thought that the opportunity would not come again, and there were millions of acres of fertile land in the Hetao, and the sooner he won it, the court could work hard sooner. After the First World War, the situation in the frontier was greatly eased, which was beneficial to the country and the people of the world. ”
"No! In the matter of the battlefield, before thinking about victory, first thinking about defeat, since you can seek stability, why should you be willing to take risks, this is to put Your Majesty and the people of the world in a place of neglect! Your Majesty, this person is for his own selfishness, completely ignoring the country's society, the wolf's ambition is clearly revealed, and the minister asks His Majesty to kill this person, with the righteousness of the court! ”
"The Emperor's ......"
For this matter, these two parties fought over and quarreled, and Zhu Houzhao heard that his head hurt.
In the end, he couldn't help it, but looked at Yang Yiqing in the old god,
"Yang Aiqing, you are the elder of the cabinet and the governor of the three sides, and the complex matters are in your heart. What do you think it should be? ”
Yang Yiqing raised his hand, "Weichen acted on the orders of the king, and for more than a year, the ministers begged to prepare for the border, store grain and grass, train soldiers, and greatly increase their combat power. Even if you don't mention these, as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, even if you die on the battlefield, you should be righteous. Therefore, the minister has no other thoughts, the court has set today, the minister will go on the expedition today, and the minister will set out tomorrow. The Holy Ming has no passing the emperor, and everything is subject to the emperor's holy will. ”
Zhu Houzhao glanced at him, this old fox.
"Your Majesty." Liu Jin spoke up on the side.
"Huh?"
"General Yibu, it's here."
"Xuan." Zhu Houzhao flicked his sleeves.
neither is it down, nor is it amazed,
He is not a child, as a general, Zhu Hou treats him well enough. There are some sensitive things to avoid suspicion, and he knows it. So the court will not look for him, he thinks it is normal, and suddenly announces him, but he is a little uncomfortable.
"Weichen, Yong Xie Bu is also not bad, see His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty."
He still wears Mongolian costumes and behaves in Mongolian etiquette.
"Flat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Yong Xie Bu, today I am discussing the matter of resuming with the ministers of the court. On the one hand, they feel that they will chase into the grassland this year and help the two right-wing Wanhu families of Tumut and Ordos resist Dayan Khan, while the other side feels that they should sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and wait for them to fight and defeat first, and then say, you come from the grassland and know more about it. What do you think Daming should do at this time? Or to be more specific, do you think Dayan Khan will attack Tumut and Ordos this year? ”
An emperor of the Ming Dynasty, to a Mongol, said such a thing. It's a spicy phrase.
He is not unclear about the situation, in fact, he can't understand what the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty are fighting for, he is considering the intentions of the Ming Emperor and his own interests.
"The minister thinks that Dayan Khan will definitely raise troops this year, and if His Majesty still wants to sincerely subdue Tumut and Ordos, he must send troops as soon as possible. Otherwise, all the men are gone, and all the old people and children are left, Your Majesty the Emperor, is it really useful for you to want the old and weak women and children? ”
At this point, some people in the room were happy and some were worried.
"Your Majesty!" Li Dongyang, the elder of the cabinet cabinet, couldn't hold it back, "Old minister, I have something to say." ”
