Chapter 228: The Pair in the Temple (Part II)
"Back to Your Majesty, the late King of Liang in Yunnan is not abnormal for the time being." Mao Xiang replied. "The letter of surrender sent to us is still discarded as it was before. and secretly sent people to the north, wanting to celebrate the New Year with the master. ”
"The envoy has been intercepted by my Ming Dynasty, and he will be escorted to Beijing in a few days."
"That'll be fine." Lao Zhu's face was soothing. "That King Liang, although he is a loyal tough guy, is just a straw bag in a high position."
"It seems that Deng Yu and Mu Ying have not aroused the vigilance of Yunnan by arranging soldiers."
"Even if I found out, I thought that our Ming Dynasty was reorganizing the army, and we wanted to conquer the West in the spring of the following year......"
"Mao Xiang, Jinyiwei needs to increase the investigation of Yunnan, if the king of Liang is alert, don't report Deng Yu and Mu Ying as soon as possible!"
"This is a military matter, if it is wrong because of your Jinyi Guard's report, we have to cut off your head!"
"Yes!" Mao Xiang responded awe-inspiringly.
"Where is Naha out there?"
"Although there are signs on the Liaodong side, there is no trace of a large number of troops gathered." Mao Xiang continued. "My brocade-clothed spy has found out that most of its preparation troops are only small units. Come to think of it, it's just like usual, I want to take advantage of my Central Plains New Year Festival to hit some grass valleys. ”
"Don't be careless." Old Zhu said solemnly. "Naha took advantage of our first expedition to the north and absorbed a lot of remnants of the defeated generals who were scattered by our Ming Dynasty."
It also occupies several counties in eastern Liaodong and is a strongman. Not to mention the Mongolian people, there are hundreds of thousands of people in the north alone. ”
"Alas, our Han people have become emperors, and those northern Han children are still attached to the command of Naha and Meng, which is really sad!" Lao Zhu took a shot at the royal case.
“…… Don't worry, father. Mao Xiao Na lowered his head and didn't dare to say more, and beside Lao Zhu, the prince Zhu Biao, who had been silent, said with words: "The land of Liaodong, since the fifth generation of Shi Jingjiao ceded Yanyun, has been ruled by foreign races for hundreds of years. ”
"Even in the Song Dynasty, there was no land in Liaodong. The Han of Liaodi lost their education and were deceived by Meng Yuan, which is also an ordinary ......"
"Hundreds of years...... "Old Zhu Nian muttered." The weak Song is just lingering, and I am the Ming Dynasty, and I will shine forever, how can the weak Song be compared. ”
"And let Naha be arrogant. On another day, we will recover all of Liaodong and make the golden ou perfect. Let the Liaodong Han Er restore my Chinese education. ”
"Your Majesty (Father) Shengming." Mao Xiang and Zhu Biao said respectfully.
After asking, Lao Zhu waved his hand to let Mao Xiang go down, and now the people in the DPRK and China are panicked because of the purge of Hu Weiyong's remaining party, and the high-ranking officials such as the six Shangshu and Shilang are all paralyzed, and only a group of middle and low-level officials who cannot reach the peak of power are left in the six ministries.
Fortunately, the cabinet led by the crown prince Zhu Biao protected these young cabinet officials like a refuge in a raging storm. There was a turmoil outside the court, but in the cabinet, it was still the same, and the ministers were still doing what they should do, and they continued to maintain the upload and issuance of court decrees.
Lao Zhu turned around and beckoned to the prince Zhu Biao and said, "Biao'er, come here and help us draw up the will." ”
"With Xu Da, the Duke of Wei, he will lead the army to hoard Beiping Mansion from now on. Prepare Naha to lead his troops south. ”
"The Chinese side in Beiping City arrested Zhu Liangzu, only Fu Youde is alone, we are afraid that he will not be able to support him alone."
"If Naha turns zero into a whole and thinks about darkness like us, it will be difficult to do."
"It's better to let Uncle Xu go to the town, so it's safe."
"Dad, do you want Uncle Xu to leave the town of Beiping?" Zhu Biao was stunned.
"But now in Beijing, except for the army led by the pro-army Governor's Mansion and Yiluansi, the rest of the generals are all remnants of the Northern Expedition who have just returned north."
"Now it is only a few months before the end of the Northern Expedition, and the army is not yet complete, so let such a remnant army go to Beiping, I am afraid that something will happen out of thin air!"
"Hmm......" Lao Zhu touched his chin. I have to say that what the eldest son said makes sense.
The pro-army Governor's Mansion is the forbidden army of the Gongwei Beijing Division, and it must not be moved.
Although the army of the Northern Expedition barely reached a draw with the Northern Yuan, it was a complete defeat at the strategic level, and the losses were extremely heavy.
It is indeed easy for such an army to go further north. This point is considered more carefully.
"How? There are 200,000 people under Naha's men, and they have to guard against ......."
"Alas, as long as this fang is contained...... Lao Zhu turned his head and looked at the map around the Ming Dynasty that was selected on the screen from Zhu Su's "Kunyu Wanguo Map". On the map, the red color represented by Liaodong Naha is particularly irritating.
"If Goryeo can listen to my Da Ming, then it will be good," Lao Zhu's gaze turned to the direction of Goryeo on the other side. If Goryeo can send a partial division to nail Naha, then the Ming Dynasty can calmly recover Xifan and Yunnan, and then find an opportunity to fight to the death with Naha, and completely recover the land of Liaodong.
It's a pity that although the two ends of the Goryeo head rat are surrendered on the face, if he is allowed to send troops, he will inevitably take care of him left and right......
At first, he even tried to steal the recipe in the hands of the fifth child. This country's incorruptibility and shamelessness can be seen.
Lao Zhu couldn't help but begin to miss what Zhu Su said, "the three-country policy of Pingwa, Goryeo, and Vietnam".
"That's it. For today's plan, I had to let Tiande speed up the army. ”
"Hurry up and go to Beiping to garrison."
"I want to come to Naha, even if I really try my best to enter the Kou, with Fu Youde and the garrison of Beiping Mansion, I can delay for a moment or two."
"As long as Tiande can go to Beiping within a few months, Beiping will be safe."
Lao Zhu looked at the map and muttered. Lao Wu also said that there will be no major wars in northern Xinjiang this year. Although it is also necessary to prevent Naha from making one or two, but if you think about it, nothing serious will happen.
"If you go outside, you must first settle inside. The only thing to do now is to recover the land of Yunnan first! His eyes looked at Yunnan, which was located in the south on the map.
"Daddy......"
"Now that the DPRK and China are in turmoil, is it a bit hasty to take Yunnan?" Zhu Biao said worriedly.
"If you are not careful, the war will be protracted, and the DPRK and China will be panicked because of Hu Weiyong's case."
"Erchen is afraid of ...... It's going to be a big disaster! ”
"It's better to take it step by step, step by step ......"
"What you said is the words of Lao Cheng, and we in history are also step-by-step." Lao Zhu sighed.
"But...... Time is running out...... If you act like the history that Lao Wu said, it is safe to be safe. But this Ming Dynasty is afraid that he will not be able to escape the fate of being a foreign race again hundreds of years later. ”
"We like stability the most in our lives...... But now, I have to gamble. It is to take advantage of the fact that the blood of the army has not been lost...... Lay a big territory beforehand! ”
"Moreover, since you all think that it is not appropriate to use troops in the turmoil between the DPRK and China...... So does the king of Liang in the north think so? ”
“…… Daddy Shengming. Zhu Biao was convinced.
"You will maintain a good cabinet for us, as long as the cabinet does not fall, the court will not be in chaos!" Lao Zhu was full of ambition. "The cabinet policy of the fifth child is really a good law that is not in the world."
"With this cabinet, we can let go of our hands and feet and thoroughly clean up this Ming Dynasty."
"It's a pity that at the end of this year, the fifth child can't return to Beijing for a reunion for the time being. We still have to use Hu Weiyong's case to clean up the imperial court, if he returns to Beijing, he will immediately fall into the cusp. ”
"This year, he is afraid that he will have to spend it in the city of Suzhou."
"Xiao Wu is filial and sensible, and he won't blame you for being old." Zhu Biao said with relief.
"At the end of this year, let my son and the second, third, and fourth children accompany you and your mother."
"Okay, okay." Lao Zhu laughed. Since he learned about the afterlife, whenever he dreams back at midnight, he can always dream of the tragic days when his wife died of illness, his young grandson died, and his eldest son died in the future.
In my heart, I cherish the family affection I have now.
Hearing the filial piety in Zhu Biao's words, thinking that his children are healthy and his wife is still there, he is naturally happy in his heart.
Suddenly, he remembered something and said, "That's right." ”
"Since the fifth child left, the second, third, and fourth rabbit cubs, what are they doing in the palace?"
"Didn't make a fuss, did you?"
"Oh, my brothers are very honest. Only day by day in the palace to read the book. ”
"Nothing happened."
Zhu Biao said. In fact, he said this with a bit of a weak heart. Since the departure of Zhu Su, the father was worried that the turmoil in the court would affect them, so he took them back to the palace.
This is the life of the three younger brothers. They are already in the wild outside the palace, how can they still stand the hard days in the palace?
begged him, the eldest brother, to blow the wind in front of his father and emperor to release them from the palace.
But Zhu Biao, as the crown prince, naturally knows that the current turmoil in the DPRK and China is not the time to let his younger brothers go free. You must know that many courtiers who have ghosts in their hearts now want to find a big tree to shelter from the wind and rain in order to avoid this difficulty.
If they are released from the palace, there are traitors who find these three younger brothers like Hu Weiyong found Xiao Wu in the past, if these three younger brothers accidentally deceive and provoke them, wouldn't they be a riot in vain?
said several times, except for Zhu Li, who was still considered a governor, the other two couldn't listen to him, and they only looked for him every day and made a lot of noise. Zhu Biao is annoyed, but who makes himself a big brother? can only help the two younger brothers to cover up in front of their father.
"Hmm. Those cubs still know the severity. Lao Zhu nodded with satisfaction, and did not doubt Zhu Biao's words. When the fifth child comes back this time, he will satisfy them, and let them open the mansion together. ”
"After all, I am getting older and know the sophistication of people......"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Oh no! ”
Before he finished speaking, he saw a sweaty waiter outside, with a crooked hat and clothes, and a shoe missing, and ran outside the hall in a hurry.
"What people! Don't be rude! Outside the hall, the two tigers of the guard reprimanded.
"It's the maid next to my mother. What's wrong with your mother? Zhu Biao was young and had good eyes, and he could see the identity of the chamberlain at a glance. Lao Zhu was also shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked Erhu to let the waiter in, and asked, "Why are you so in a hurry?" ”
"Where's the girl? Is our sister alright? ”
"Gift...... Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... The queen is fine......" The chamberlain replied intermittently as he gasped. Lao Zhu and Zhu Biaofang breathed a sigh of relief, but they were immediately choked by the next sentence of the waiter.
"It's just His Royal Highness King Qin...... ...... with His Royal Highness King Yan"
"But I left a letter, and I don't know when I sneaked out of the palace!"
