It has not been many years since Jingnan, and even the era of Hongwu is only one or two generations.

Therefore, the martial arts of the Ming Dynasty are still quite abundant, and the attitude of the government and the opposition towards the affairs of the military family is not weak.

It's just that many officials don't take the same position......

In the face of Zhu Gaoxian's statement, some officials looked extremely excited and excited, while some officials frowned and looked extremely serious.

How?

Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want to choose an all-out war with the Tatars at this time?

It's not a good time!

The old emperor is seriously ill, the undercurrent in the court is surging, and the big families in various places are difficult to do, the prince should sit down and sort out the situation of the court, and succeed to the throne in peace and stability, which can be regarded as the direction of the king, and will not shake the current situation of the Ming Dynasty.

can listen to the tone of His Royal Highness the Prince, it is clear that he is preparing to start a war frivolously!

Or with the northern Tatars, who have always been strong and ferocious!

Some old and serious ministers already looked a little worried, and wanted to come out and dissuade Zhu Gaoxian's seemingly crazy move.

Isn't this a reckless militarism?

What is the most important thing at the moment, isn't it because you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, can't figure it out?

Of course, stabilizing the situation and taking over smoothly is the king!

What to do with the Tatars from the north?

For a while, the atmosphere in the hall had become a little weird.

In the end, it was the military department that came out and asked in a puzzled tone:

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, do you mean that there is going to be an all-out war with the Tatars?"

Zhu Gaoxian nodded, although this military secretary was not firmly on his side, he was also a neutral faction, and he was not too disturbed by the family.

Therefore, Zhu Gaoxian's attitude towards him is also relatively gentle.

"Li Shangshu, what Gu means is to take this opportunity to beat the Tatars in one fell swoop, and even completely eliminate them!"

"Otherwise, with the nature of the Tatars, even if they are defeated this time, when they retreat to the steppe to lick their wounds, they will come back again in a few years, causing harm to my Ming again."

He said in a firm tone:

"Either don't fight, or you kill them all at once!"

"Otherwise, going back and forth like this, it is to let them repeatedly bite and bleed on our Da Ming, how much flesh and blood can we have for these alien races to gnaw?"

"Tartar must not be given this chance!"

Seeing that Zhu Gaoxian's attitude was so resolute, the secretary of the military department hesitated and said:

"His Royal Highness the Prince, this matter is not trivial, although there are hundreds of thousands of troops in the northeast and northwest of the Ming Dynasty, but the Tatars are good at attacking, and mainly cavalry, the strength is strong and comes and goes like the wind, if it is really a full-scale war with it, I am afraid that the border will be difficult to ......hold."

Although Zhu Gaoxian swept through the northeast at the beginning, and even hit the Wa Kingdom and included it in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, for many court ministers, these alien races in the north have always been the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty.

After all, it has only been a few decades since the Ming Dynasty overthrew the murderous rule of Meng Yuan.

Although today's Tatars no longer have the strength of Meng Yuan, the shadow of memory of the steppe cavalry sweeping the world has always lingered faintly in the minds of many people.

"Exactly," the Ministry of Rites Shangshu saw that Zhu Gaoxian was not angry at what the Ministry of War said, pondered for a while, and then glanced at Wang Zhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites not far away, and after getting the hint, he also came out and said:

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, now that the treasury is not yet full, and the world of etiquette and morality is declining, it is really not a good time to start a war with a foreign country."

"You should be diligent in cultivating internal skills and governing the country's politics well, how can you start a war lightly and fall into the flames of the Ming Dynasty?"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister thinks that this move is extremely inappropriate, and he should think twice before acting!"

With the opening of the Ministry of Rites, the court suddenly became active as if it had received some order.

Many officials came out one after another, and their mouths were full of words of dissuasion, and outside the words, it seemed that Zhu Gaoxian, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, had been regarded as a frivolous person, and he vaguely had the appearance of a tyrannical king......

Wang Zhi didn't speak, he secretly calculated in his heart, first let this group of people buckle the prince with a big hat of ruthlessness.

As for the war with the Tatars? It is still necessary to fight, but how to fight, where to fight, and the scale of the war must be firmly controlled by them!

The crown prince must not be allowed to take the lead!

You can even use this opportunity to give this prince who doesn't know the importance of the eye, severely reduce the strength in his hands, and weaken his huge influence in the army!

You must know that in today's army, in addition to the old emperor who is lying on the sickbed and dying soon, the prestige of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the highest, and even many veteran generals are far inferior to him.

In this way, whether it is a family or a major minister in the court, if they want to reach out to the army, it is always extremely difficult and full of obstacles.

This makes many people feel very uncomfortable, if the crown prince ascends the throne in the future and has the support of the army, then won't they be sidelined?

Just as Wang Zhi was thinking about how to block the prince again, Zhu Gaoxian turned his attention to him, and there seemed to be a smile on his face:

"Wang Shangshu, what do you think?"

Wang Zhi was stunned for a moment, I am a secretary of the ministry, and I didn't stand up to say anything, what do you mean by rashly calling my name?

Hearing Zhu Gaoxian's inquiry, the rest of the people in the hall immediately fell silent, and turned their eyes to this official of the Ministry of Heaven, an important minister in the court!

Among them, several scholars were expressionless, Yang Rong, the first assistant of the cabinet, glanced at him and turned away, and Xia Yuanji, the head of the household, was just recovering from his injuries and was given a seat by Zhu Gaoxian, who also looked at him expressionlessly at this time.

Wang Zhi was stunned for a while, his thoughts turned sharply, and he threw away many distracting thoughts, and then slowly came out of the queue and said slowly:

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the old minister has never been ignorant of military affairs, so it is really difficult to express his opinion on this, and I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to forgive him."

"But the old minister also knows that since ancient times, the war cannot be started lightly, and the affairs of the military family are extremely dangerous, and it will greatly damage the vitality of a country, so I also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to worry more about the people's livelihood."

He is cunning and cunning, as soon as he speaks, he first belittles himself and sets up Zhu Gaoxian, you want to erect a higher image and get a higher reputation by fighting, right?

Then I will first gag you with the people.

It has been said in the history books and the classics of the sages that the king should put the people first and not start a war lightly.

You, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, when your father is seriously ill, still think about going to war with foreign races and consuming national strength, is it too indifferent to the people of the Ming Dynasty?

Is it necessary to empty the entire treasury?

Do you still want to succeed to the throne of the Ming Dynasty?
