Chapter 38: The Heart of King Yan

This Fu Zhong is a big problem. He had to do three things at the same time, suppressing Japan, protecting and controlling the Eastern vassal kings, and attacking Liaodong.

Fu Zhong is a very good general of the younger generation, and he was trained by Fu Youde hand in hand. Leading the troops to fight is much worse than the old generation, not to mention that now Lan Yu has been killed, Mu Ying has died of illness, and the twin stars of the younger generation of the Ming Dynasty have withdrawn from the stage of history.

Fu Zhong also came out.

But Fu Zhong is not an incompetent person, and he also has a headache in the face of such a situation.

He doesn't have three heads and six arms.

If you want to solve these three things, you must divide a priority. But this priority is not something he can decide.

Especially when the new monarch ascended the throne and encountered the current situation, Fu Zhong didn't know what kind of person Zhu Yunwen was, and he didn't dare to make his own decisions. I can only ask the imperial court.

It also takes time.

Fu Zhong said secretly: "The soldiers are fast, the incident in Beijing happened suddenly, if I descend from the sky and go straight to Shenyang, I may not be able to take it in one fell swoop, but now, it's too late to say anything, and the situation in the future will not be easy to handle."

In particular, Fu Zhong thought that when the King of Jingjiang raised troops, the order at sea became chaotic.

And all the materials of Fu Zhong's department must be sent from Jiangnan by sea.

This is also very problematic.

------

Yanwang Mansion.

King Yan has been pondering for a long time.

Since King Yan knew that Zhu Xiongying was on the throne of the country. King Yan doesn't see many people. Shut yourself in your room. Think about the situation today.

However, although King Yan is nowhere to be seen. But the news from all sides is endless.

Yan Wang has been in Peking for so many years, how can he not have enough manpower and eyeliner? How could King Yan not arrange people in Nanjing? Don't forget who is King Yan's father-in-law? Therefore, the information of the entire Ming Dynasty in all aspects continued to reach the hands of King Yan.

And King Yan didn't see the people below, and the people below could only write a note and report their thoughts to King Yan.

And Zhu Xiongying, He Xi, and Zhu Yunwen all wrote to King Yan.

The content is almost the same, and it is all tried to win over.

Each has its own version of the story.

The reason why this is so is because King Yan has only prepared one thing in the past few years, that is, to prepare for the Northern Expedition. In the past three years, King Yan not only cultivated on the Songnen Plain, but also competed with Warat on the Mobei grassland.

The two sides have been secretly fighting each other many times.

In the eyes of King Yan, now he has nearly 100,000 cavalry in his hands, and he has found a new way to produce agriculture and animal husbandry in the Mobei grassland. Although it can't be the same as in the Ming Dynasty, it is already possible to change the herdsmen from nomadic herding to fixed herding, and establish a city in Mobei to establish a stable rule.

In this case.

King Yan has already decided to go west.

But all of a sudden, something like this happened in the south. It disrupted all of Yan Wang's plans at once.

The choices in front of King Yan are nothing more than a few.

One was to obey the edict of the Nanjing court and go south to quell the rebellion. When the time comes, enough land will be obtained from the Nanjing court. The second is to ally with his eldest nephew, join the ranks of the Northern Army, and wait for him to be rewarded after the victory of the Great War in the future.

The third is neutrality.

Then there is the independent southward struggle for the throne.

After all, he was only one step away from the throne back then.

If you want to say that King Yan is willing, no one believes it.

And King Yan is not coming out, which in itself represents a kind of hesitation.

King Yan thought for a long time. finally invited Lian Zining in.

King Yan and Lian Zining sat opposite each other, there was a pot of hot tea in the middle, King Yan poured a cup of tea for Lian Zining, and said, "Brother Lian, Qiu Fu and the others have given books, why don't you mention a word?"

Lian Zining said, "Because there is nothing to say."

King Yan said, "Why?"

Lian Zining said, "Your Highness

Can you have confidence in Bian Zhuang's stabbing tiger? Kill two birds with one stone?"

King Yan was silent for a long time, shook his head and said, "How is it possible?"

King Yan is the most sensitive to the comparison of military strength. Yes, King Yan has about 100,000 cavalry in his hands, which is a very powerful force. But King Yan himself knows where these 100,000 cavalry came from? The armament of 100,000 cavalry was transported from the Guannai. And a considerable part of the rations of the 100,000 troops were procured from Liaodong. Although it is said that some grain can also be produced in Yan country. However, the production is too small, not self-sufficient, and in order to fight a war, it is necessary to prepare more.

If nothing else, just the population. The number of people under the command of King Yan is worth millions, and the number of cavalry is 100,000, which is all the prime men under the command of King Yan. This is also normal, and the armies of nomads are mostly like this.

But the problem is that the army of the Ming Dynasty is not the army of the previous agricultural era. The armor, steel crossbows, and other weapons equipped to the teeth are enough to make King Yan unbearable. What makes Yan Wang even more unbearable is the loss.

Because whether it is Beijing or Nanjing, the soldiers who died in the war can be replenished. But under the command of King Yan, there was one less dead.

It can be called a disposable army.

But how can the battle for the world be fought in one or two days?

King Yan closed the door and disappeared, in fact, he was secretly deliberating about how high the probability of Bian Zhuang stabbing the tiger was.

But King Yan can't lie to himself. It's not impossible. But it's too small.

King Yan is on a desperate road, and he may not dare to give it a go, but now that King Yan has a family, a country, and a future, he doesn't have that kind of desperate mind. This is also human nature.

Lian Zining said, "Then does Your Highness still have a choice? One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, no matter how much Your Highness helps that Highness to take over the world, it is impossible for him to stay in the Central Plains for a long time, otherwise His Highness will know what it will look like."

King Yan sighed and said, "I'm not reconciled."

In King Yan's opinion, his two nephews are not good at stubble.

In the matter of Zhu Yunwen's succession to the throne, there is no edict or last word, no matter how you look at it, it is full of doubts. For politicians, evidence is not needed many times. It only needs to start from the biggest beneficiary and work backwards.

Although King Yan was not sure how much Zhu Yunwen had done in the matter of inheritance, he refused to believe that Zhu Yunwen was innocent.

And Zhu Xiongying, seeing that things were not good, almost immediately rebelled? This courage, King Yan admires very much.

It can also be seen from this point that Zhu Xiongying is not good at stubble. What will happen to anyone he will do after he helps anyone conquer the world? The rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Jin Dynasty had already told him that it was nothing more than entering the next round of overtime, and the opponent was him and another winner.

Can I really have the word in the drama and the king side by side?

What does it take so much time, so much energy, and work hard to fight for others? King Yan is not so cheap.

But the question comes back?

Now that the Central Plains is in turmoil, if he is neutral, there is no benefit at all? He's not reconciled.

Lian Zining was relieved when he heard King Yan say this, after all, in Lian Zining's heart, he didn't want King Yan to join the melee in the Central Plains.

In fact, when Lian Zining knew about the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty, he was at a loss. He had no idea that such a problem would arise. He was also disappointed in He Xi.

In his opinion, even if Zhu Yunwen was not in the right position, the teacher should not assist King Wu in his rebellion. After all, the overall situation of the world is the most important.

The overall situation of the world in his heart is that the people of the world can enjoy peace in peace.

Instead of that, fight each other.

He was saddened, but naturally he didn't want to get involved.

What's more, where is Lian Zining's life's skills? It's in the prairie.

Since Lian Zining left Beijing more than ten years ago, he has specialized in Qingchu in Daning, studying the crops that can be grown on the grassland. For so many years, his mind has been on it. Later, he followed King Yan, whether it was planting rice in the boundary of Changchun, reclaiming wasteland in the Songnen Plain, and promoting fixed grazing. Wait a minute.

It can be said that half of the credit for Yan Guo's current national strength is on Lian Zining, if it weren't for Lian Zining to promote new production

Method, so that the local herders do not die of hunger and cold in winter. Let them feel the real change, and they will not quickly abandon the Golden Family and join the command of King Yan.

And it is impossible for King Yan to quickly pull up 100,000 cavalry, you must know that there are quite a few people here, all of whom are diehards who have fought against the Ming Dynasty for decades. They don't change their minds so easily.

These things made Lian Zining extremely happy from body to heart.
