Chapter 217: The Terrifying Background of King Qi's Mansion
[In the fourteenth year of orthodoxy, August 15th, this day is the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is clearly a good day for reunion, but there was a catastrophe in the north of the Ming Dynasty. γ
[The 400,000 Ming army led by Zhu Qizhen, the Ming Emperor, was wiped out in Tumubao, the generals and relatives suffered a catastrophe, and all the civil officials and virtuous ministers died in Tumubao, Zhu Qizhen was captured by the Wara people, and the foundation saved by four generations was overturned. γ
[You don't quite understand how this battle was fought, before the Xuanfu War, Jinyiwei had already explored the deployment of the Wara Fourth Route Army clearly, and under the absolute advantage, he occupied the condescending position in intelligence, and the battle that could be won by changing a pig, Zhu Qizhen lost. γ
[After the Warat people annihilated the elite of the Ming army in one fell swoop, the Warat Taishi also led the steppe coalition army aggressively, all the way to the gate of the Beijing Division, ambitious, he wanted to become the second Genghis Khan and re-establish the vast empire of the Mongols! γ
[At this time, you received a letter from the Beijing Division, which was written by Yu Qian, who had just been promoted to the secretary of the military department. γ
[The Ming Dynasty was not a cowardly former Song Dynasty, and the ministers led by Yu Qian refused to move south to temporarily avoid the warat. γ
[At Yu Qian's suggestion, the imperial court decided to convene the Liangjing and Henan garrisons, Shandong and Yingtianfu coastal garrisons, Jiangbei and Shuntian prefectures to transport grain troops, and urgently go to Beijing to fight, and at the same time convene the vassal kings of the provinces, King Qin, Gongwei Jingshi, and fight to the death with the Warat people. γ
[The armies of Liangjing, Henan, Shandong, Jiangbei and other places had no problem, and rushed to Beijing at full speed, but there was a problem in summoning the vassal kings of the provinces. γ
[It's not that the vassal kings of the provinces are cowardly and cowardly, they also want to send troops to defend the Jingshi, but they have the heart but are powerless. The Yongle Dynasty continued the policy of cutting the feudal domain of the Jianwen Dynasty, and although the vassal kings of the provinces had no worries about their lives, all the military power in their hands was honestly handed over. The vassal kings of the provinces are now mascots who eat and wait for death, and they have no army under their hands. γ
Zhu Di looked a little embarrassed and touched the tip of his nose.
Jianwen cut the domain, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, rebelled and usurped the throne. As a result, after he became the emperor himself, he cut it more ruthlessly than Jianwen, and directly cut the military power of the vassal kings.
He himself was a rebellion against the vassal kings, and he had a grudge against the other vassal kings. What if these people follow the example of King Yan back then, and also have a whole battle of Jingjing?
In the same way, when Zhu Di did not sit on the throne, he expressed his goodwill by reverting to several vassal kings of the feudal Emperor Wen Zhu Yunwen in exchange for the support of his brothers.
After sitting on the throne, it can be said that it is quite clever to cut off the three guards of these vassal kings through various reasons, or simply depose them as concubines.
Although this eliminated the hidden danger of rebellion by the feudal king, it also planted the seeds of another hidden danger.
ββThe scene of the vassal kings of the Hongwu Dynasty beating the alien race no longer exists, and when the Ming Dynasty was threatened, these vassal kings all became helpless waste.
[But the vassal king that the Ming can fight is actually not completely absent. γ
[You are the last vassal king of the Ming Dynasty to take charge of the army. γ
[You hold 100,000 southwest troops, sit in Annan Province, and build an impregnable wall for the Ming Dynasty in the southwest, just like the Dinghai God Needle, as long as the Southwest Qi Palace, the southwest countries will not dare to offend the Ming Dynasty. γ
[It's just that the imperial court doesn't know that now the southwestern countries have disappeared, they only exist in name, and in fact they have been occupied by the Qi Wangfu. γ
[Yu Qian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, doesn't know this, the meaning of the handwritten letter he wrote is simple and clear, that is, I hope you will lead the Southwest Army, send troops to the north, and gallop to the aid of the Beijing Division. γ
[Now Yu Qian is the supreme commander of the Ming Dynasty, and his power has reached the peak of his life, and all the troops in the Ming Dynasty must obey his orders. However, Yu Qian didn't have time to think about it so much, he was so busy that although he was already mobilizing troops and horses from all walks of life, and he was shouting very hard, but he actually didn't have a bottom in his heart. γ
[The main force of the Ming army has died in Tumubao, and now the remaining army is either a reserve or a grain transport army, and the combat effectiveness is not comparable to the main elite at all. The 400,000 elites of the Ming army are dead, can these reserves win the grassland coalition army? γ
[No way, so far, Yu Qian can only give it a go. γ
[After winning, Daming Jiangshan Sheji temporarily cleared the crisis and was able to continue to breathe. γ
[If he loses, then he Yu Qian is a sinner through the ages, and the entire Ming Dynasty will be buried for it. γ
[You know that Yu Qian can win this battle and continue the national glory for the Ming Dynasty for a hundred years, but you still choose to lead the Southwest Army to the north and gallop to the aid of Beijing. γ
[This is a crucial move in your layout.] γ
[Winning this battle, the southwest will no longer need to worry about the pressure brought by the imperial court, and can develop with a stuffy head, and no longer need to hide and be anxious. γ
[Yu Qian wants to win this battle and renew his life for the Ming Dynasty. γ
[You have to win this battle and exchange a hundred years of peace for the Southwest Qi Palace! ] γ
Zhu Di suddenly realized: "I see. β
He actually knew the causes and consequences of the Tumubao Change, as well as the outcome of the subsequent defense of the Jingshi. This time to simulate from King Qi's perspective, in fact, the result is the same, Zhu Di cares more about the details and King Qi's thoughts.
He has always been curious, in the defense of the Jingshi, the king of Qi led the army to force back Wara, and after controlling the Jingshi, he did not choose to seize power and usurp the throne.
At that time, if King Qi had the idea of usurping the throne, no one could stop him.
The army in Yu Qian's hands has been crippled after the defense of the Beijing Division, and it can't stop the elite and powerful southwest army of King Qi at all, and after Desheng, King Qi's prestige has reached its peak, meeting all the conditions required for usurpation, and even Zhu Qiyu has already laid down and is ready to write the edict of Zen.
It stands to reason that King Qi should not have any psychological pressure, and his seizure of power at this time cannot even be called a usurpation, but it is not a succession.
At this time, Zhu Qizhen, the real brand of the Ming Dynasty, was still raising horses on the grassland, as for Zhu Qiyu, he was at most a puppet emperor who came up temporarily, and the ministers, including Yu Qian, did not regard Zhu Qiyu as a real emperor at all. King Qi's prestige soared after the defeat of Wara to protect the Ming Dynasty in Mobei, and if he wanted to be emperor himself at this time, not only would he not be opposed, but he would gain the support of a large number of people.
He is the son of Zhu Di, the prince of Emperor Taizongwen, and he also said that he inherited the throne in the past.
But King Qi refused the throne.
At that time, Zhu Di, who simulated Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Qizhen, was puzzled, could it be that King Qi really didn't have any ambition at all, was he a rotten salted fish? But what he does is not like a salted fish at all, more like a diligent model worker, why is he unwilling to be the emperor?
The answer is very simple, the benefits he gets when he is an emperor are not even as good as the benefits he gets when he is an emperor in the southwest.
If he chooses to usurp the throne at this time, what will he get in the end?
A leaky and dilapidated Ming Empire, everything he does must be restricted everywhere, although he is a fierce medicine that can make Daming heal, but before the Ming Dynasty is eradicated, the empire has been shattered.
The weak Ming Dynasty is not worthy of an ambitious and capable King Qi, and if he chooses to be the emperor at this time, he will use all his resources to restore the Ming Dynasty to the Xuande period. Leading a half-submerged broken ship and turning into a behemoth galloping across the sea sounds great, but King Qi doesn't care about that.
He gave up the throne at this time and chose to return to the southwest, which can lead this powerful force that occupies the right time and place to develop into a magnificent empire, which can already be proved from the section that simulates Chongzhen.
At the time of Chongzhen's death, the Qi Wangfu had developed into an incomparably powerful Qi Ming Empire that occupied the entire territory of the West.
King Qi: I don't want to let go of the powerful Qi Ming Empire, and go to work for your weakened Ming Dynasty, you will be stupid to me?
In the same plot, after Zhu Zhanqi, who simulated the lineage of the Han Dynasty, became the emperor, King Qi chose to usurp the throne without hesitation.
Because Zhu Zhanqi is rushing to play the Ming Dynasty.
If the Ming Dynasty is finished at this time, the barrier to resist the wind and rain for the southwest will be gone, and the southwest Qi Wangfu will face a worse situation, and King Qi can only choose to take the throne helplessly.
He really didn't want to be the emperor, he really rushed the ducks to the shelves, and reluctantly usurped the throne.
It sounds outrageous, but it's true.
Zhu Di soon realized a new question: "How did King Qi know this?" β
It was only with the simulator that he saw the situation clearly, and from God's perspective to look at the overall situation, he figured out these truths. And King Qi is purely a black eye, a blind man lights a lamp and walks at night, how did he see the situation so clearly and make the most rational choice?
King Qi's long-term vision and far-sightedness in the layout shocked Zhu Di.
[You have built the 100,000 Southwest Army into a nearly modern army, all equipped with weapons that surpass the current world for hundreds of years, and there is only a line between the "AK Army". γ
[You have a complete spy agency "Southwest CIA", which has 12 divisions, the Southwest Military Intelligence Division, the Southwest Coast Intelligence Division, the Southwest Defense Intelligence Division, the Southwest Intelligence Comprehensive Analysis Division, the Southwest Financial Intelligence Analysis Division, the Southwest Investigation Division, the Southwest Investigation Division, and ......]
[You have an elite "Southwest Special Forces" among the elite, although there are only 2,000 people, but this is formed by the most hardcore sergeants selected from the Southwest Army, equipped with the most advanced weapons in the Southwest, and during the operation, they will conduct actual attacks and sabotage against the enemy, assassination and kidnapping, reconnaissance behind enemy lines, stealing intelligence, psychological warfare propaganda, special guards, as well as anti-subversion, counter-espionage, anti-sneak attack and anti-hijacking activities. The establishment is flexible, the personnel are capable, the equipment is excellent, the mobility is fast, the training is well-trained, and the combat effectiveness is extremely strong. γ
[You have a "Southwest Artillery Battalion", which was set up at a huge cost, equipped with various types of artillery developed by the Southwest Academy of Sciences, including heavy guns with strong destructive power in a large area, and light guns that are small and flexible, and can be easily controlled by one person......]
[In twenty-five years, you have built the Southwest Army into a sword that can reduce the dimensionality of the current era! γ
[This is the terrifying background of the Southwest Qi Palace! ] γ
