It's been a long time.

The emperor's laughter was heard: "Okay, you are a Taolu, but you are sharp-toothed, no wonder you can go deep into the enemy camp, fool the enemy chieftain, and take down the Gu Lingqin clan!" ”

Tauru was so frightened that his body went limp.

"Why is the young man who went deep into the enemy camp still scared by me?" Zhu Qiyu teased him.

"Your Majesty's gentian and tiger are mighty, if the real dragon is alive, the student is just a mortal fetus with the naked eye, and in front of His Majesty, he is naturally very afraid."

Tauru is a sycophant, but in fact, his back is completely transparent.

Zhu Qiyu laughed.

"Ou Bo, Duan Yuanyan, and other parents are all famous generals!"

"Get up."

"Give a seat."

Tauru is the youngest one who can sit in the Temple of Heart Cultivation.

But he didn't dare to sit down.

It's just that the butt is slightly touched.

Ou Boring is a little better, Duan Yuanyan keeps trembling.

He is just the son of a little toast, and it is his mother who has made the credit, and on the way he has learned that there are no female generals in the Ming Dynasty, and his mother is very embarrassed.

"Duan Yuanyan, your mother is a good general."

Zhu Qiyu saw that he was nervous, and said softly: "I plan to promote her to be the commander of the Tongzhi, although she is a woman, there are precedents such as Mu Guiying, Liang Hongyu, Li Sanniang, etc., and there can also be female generals in the Ming Dynasty, you should learn from your mother." ”

Duan Yuanyan didn't expect that the emperor would have such a high opinion of his mother.

He was taught by his mother since he was a child, knew Chinese, watched opera, and knew Mu Guiying, but he didn't know who Liang Hongyu was.

However, Tao Lu, who had read the book, was full of surprise, he knew Liang Hongyu and Li Sanniang, but who was Mu Guiying?

Mu Guiying is a character in the compilation of the Jiajing period.

Now it is the Jingtai Dynasty, or it exists in unpopular operas.

is Liang Hongyu and Li Sanniang, who are well-known figures.

Liang Hongyu is Han Shizhong's concubine, and Han Shizhong is a famous general at the historical level.

Li Sanniang is Li Yuan's third daughter, and Niangziguan is named after her.

"Boy, thank you, Your Majesty!" Duan Yuanyan kowtowed gratefully.

"Ou Xin has the qualifications to be knighted, Ou Boring has entered the martial arts hall, but you are not allowed to disgrace your father." Zhu Qiyu smiled at Ou Bo.

Ou Bo hurriedly knelt down and promised.

Zhu Qiyu has high hopes for these three people, especially Tao Lu.

"I will test you, this morning, I decided to split the northwest into the four provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningshan, I want to reopen the Western Regions, what do you suggest?"

Ou Bo and Duan Yuanyan were full of confusion, we have never been to the northwest, how do we know how the northwest will prosper?

Tao Lu also did his homework on the road, but he didn't do his homework in the northwest, and he was still asked by the emperor's question.

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, can the students look at the map."

Tauru racked his brain, but he didn't have much of an impression of the Northwest in his mind.

It's embarrassing.

On the walls of the Heart Cultivation Temple, there is still an unsplit map, and it will soon be graffiti and painted again.

Feng Xiao told Tao Lu about the newly demarcated border.

Tao Lu gritted his teeth and knelt down: "Back to Your Majesty, the students think that they can immigrate to Shaanxi, prosper Shaanxi first, and ask Your Majesty to rebuild Chang'an!" ”

Zhu Qiyu's eyes lit up: "Let's talk carefully." ”

"After my Ming Dynasty occupied the Hetao, Shaanxi became a completely inland province, no longer bordering the enemy, and became very safe."

"Therefore, the core of the northwest will be moved from Taiyuan, the place of beauty, to Chang'an, the pearl of the northwest."

"And Chang'an, located in the center of Guanzhong, although it has been tired for many years, as long as the whole body is united, the reconstruction of Chang'an is just around the corner."

"When Chang'an is completed, you can take Chang'an as the center, go west to the west of the river, cross Turpan, and conquer the Western Regions."

Tao Lu seems to have said a lot, but in fact, it is just one sentence, building Chang'an.

It can be seen that this question stumped him.

"To put it succinctly." Zhu Qiyu doesn't like to listen to nonsense.

"Your Majesty, one of them is to build Chang'an and rebuild the fortress in Guanzhong."

"Second, more immigrants and revitalize business in Guanzhong."

"Third, Guanzhong is tired and can't bear too many people, so it is necessary to protect the water and soil, and also reopen the Silk Road on the road."

Tauru is quite a cliché.

Zhu Qiyu was slightly dissatisfied with Tao Lu's strategic vision.

"Tao Lu, the disadvantage of Guanzhong lies in the hearts of the people." Zhu Qiyu didn't embarrass him, after all, he was a child.

Tauru knew that the Emperor was unhappy with his answer.

"You haven't been to the level, and you haven't seen much information."

"It's normal not to know."

"After Liaojin, Mengyuan, Guanzhong is already the world of the Semu people and the Hu people, and it is no longer Guanzhong in the Han and Tang dynasties."

"That's why I said that to govern Guanzhong, the first thing is to govern the heart."

"Only if the people of Guanzhong identify with the Ming Dynasty from the bottom of their hearts, identify themselves as Han people, not return to the Ming Dynasty, and are sincerely willing to shed their blood for the Ming Dynasty, then any difficulty is not a difficulty."

Zhu Qiyu showed his face: "Get up, you have such an opinion at a young age, it's already good." ”

"When you enter the lecture hall, you must guard against arrogance and rashness."

"You are in Yulin, you can be described as a dragon and phoenix among people, but in Beijing, the world's talents gather here, and if you still want to excel, you have to work harder than others."

"Learning is the only key to success."

Zhu Qiyu persuaded to learn.

Tauru hurriedly kowtowed in thanksgiving.

"The two of you too, when you enter the martial arts hall, you must study hard, and you can't live up to me, live up to your parents and have a hard heart."

"Boy, wait for Your Majesty's teachings!" The three of them bowed in unison.

Tauru knelt down again and uttered his father's words of thanks.

Zhu Qiyu was greatly moved: "Tao Cheng's loyalty to me, I see it in my eyes. ”

Send the three away.

Feng Xiaoyu reported: "Emperor, Governor Fang has sent more than 700 children who have been castrated, where do you think they should be placed?" ”

"Fang Ying has a heart."

Zhu Qiyu bowed his head and said: "Go to the inner study hall, in the past, the inner study hall invited the Hanlin Academy to give lectures, and from today on, the learned eunuchs will give lectures." ”

"The palace is a matter in the palace, and foreign courts are not allowed to interfere."

"Understood?"

The attendant lectured to the eunuch, and slowly led the eunuch crookedly, and the eunuch would become a puppet of the civil official in the palace.

Zhu Qiyu let these toast children who don't know Chinese learn Chinese and learn knowledge.

It is to put an end to these people, who are eroded by civilian officials, and will become his wings in the future.

"Slave understands!" Feng Xiao kowtowed.

"It's useless to read as many big truths as you want, you have to learn to be down-to-earth and do things in a down-to-earth manner." Zhu Qiyu advised.

As soon as Zhu Qiyu opened the chapter, he remembered one more thing: "Ou Xin wrote and wanted to accept Duan Si'e as a concubine." ”

"What does the emperor mean?" Feng Xiao asked carefully.

"Duan Si'e is a general, being Ou Xin's concubine is a little aggrieved, give him a flat wife, give him the permission to fight with the army, give him four grades of respect, and in the future, he can be knighted according to his military exploits."

Feng Xiao was surprised, he didn't expect the emperor to love Duan Si'e so much.

Also, the emperor has a lot of favor for women, and I heard that many women in Beijing set up immortal cards for the emperor at home, and they are grateful to the emperor.

"Slave maid, go and pass the decree!"

Zhu Qiyu bowed his head: "Tell Ou Xin that I want him to be Han Shizhong, and Duan Si'e is Liang Hongyu of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

Feng Xiao could see that the emperor was deliberately too high on the value of Ou Xin and Duan Si'e.

No one praised Ou Xin, so he, the emperor, personally touted it.

And in Shanxi, Datong.

Shu Liang slapped the case angrily: "Damn Gong Hui! What is he going to do with a traitor? Rebellion? ”

He, the eunuch, is actually the governor of Shanxi.

He is plowing the western part of the mountain.

Yu Shan and Yu Gang also have to obey orders.

At this moment, he is in Datong, personally recruiting troops.

Guo Deng personally accompanied.

"What's the matter with the factory father?" Xu Ning asked in a low voice.

Xu Ning is the son of Xu Gui and the grandson of Yongxin Bo Xu Cheng, because there is no world certificate, so there is no heir.

"A private matter in the East Factory."

Shu Liang restrained his anger, thinking about writing a letter of plead at night, Chen Yu Your Majesty:

"Let's get down to business, the emperor issued an order to order Shanxi to immigrate to Guangxi and Hetao by conscription, what do you two think?"

He knew that the emperor valued Xu Gui, so he looked at Xu Ning differently.

Needless to say, Guo Deng was the emperor's confidant.

"Factory father, I thought it was not easy to do this." Xu Ning dared to say anything.

"Why?"

Xu Ning smiled bitterly: "The court has governed Shanxi too well, although the people can't live a rich life, at least they are not hungry, they can't be hungry, who wants to be a ghost in a foreign land!" ”

This is true, although Shanxi is not rich, it is certainly not poor.

Because Shanxi people are good at business.

There are also a large number of coal mines underground, and the people are not short of food or clothing, so they are naturally reluctant to leave their hometowns.

He looked at Yang Ning, the governor of Datong.

Yang Ning smiled bitterly: "Xu Guerrilla is right, the people of Shanxi are willing to do business, not to be soldiers. Even if the central army is recruited, I am afraid that it will be in vain. ”

"What's the solution?" Shu Liang is also out of line.

What the center sees is only numbers, and it cannot see the real situation of the people.

"I'm afraid I can only forcibly levy it." Shanxi Governor Shen Gu smiled bitterly.

"Forced expropriation is absolutely not possible, in case the emperor is held accountable, no one will be able to eat and walk around!" Shu Liang was in trouble.

Just when Shu Liang was in trouble.

Fan Guang had already led his army westward, first sending a letter to Zhenyuanguan, contacting Zhenyuanguan, and then contacting Kou Shen in Gansu Town.

From the beginning of entering Gansu, Kou Shen saw a desolation.

If you want to prosper Gansu, it will be difficult in less than a hundred years.

The key is that this place is on the front line, even if it is rebuilt, a war will be reduced to ashes, so it is better to rebuild than not to build.

Kou Shen also had a headache.

He wrote to the center, and the emperor approved the construction of Gansu, regardless of the consequences.

Kou Shen knew that the emperor had promised him that he had not broken his promise.

At this time, Kou Shen received a report from the Ganzhou Guardian that there was a large cavalry force that was crossing the border.

"It seems that the more than 10,000 cavalry in front are just forwards."

Kou Shen looked in the direction of the Hetao: "I don't know if the original political envoy has received the message from this official." ”

Before he left Beijing, he brought three generals, Tao Jin, Yang Jie and Li Duan.

These three were all governors, and they participated in the defense of Beijing, and they all had military achievements.

In particular, Tao Jin, who is known as a capable person, originally served in Shanxi, but was transferred by the emperor to follow him to Gansu.

"My lord, will this cavalry be like the cavalry of the Timurid Khanate, who will come to the steppe to take refuge?"

Tao Jin was tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and arched his hand and said: "I am willing to contact this cavalry and ask about the purpose." ”

"No!"

Kou Shen shook his head: "There are not many soldiers in Gansu Town, so you can't go out at will." ”

Tao Jin glanced at Yang Jie and Li Duan, both feeling very aggrieved.

I thought that when I came to Gansu, I wanted to show my skills.

As a result, who would have thought that there were more than 20,000 people in Gansu Town, all of whom were old and weak, and there were less than 3,000 who could fight, and they had to defend the fortress.

When Kou Shen came to Gansu, he made drastic reforms.

The old and weak were dismissed, the troops were re-recruited, and the battle formations were drilled.

But now there are more than 10,000 people in their hands.

Can't stand up to consumption.

They are all new troops, and they are prone to collapse without a fight on the battlefield.

At this time, Fan Guang sent a message.

Kou Shen knew the reason for the Bald Basi Ministry, and his eyes lit up: "The Han people dislike the desolation of Gansu, but these Yi people definitely don't dislike it." ”

"If we swallow more than 100,000 people, there will be no shortage of Dingkou in Gansu."

"The official will be able to show his ambitions."

He also wants to govern Gansu.

The problem is that there is no one in Gansu, who will he govern.

Simply, he also wanted to learn from Sun Yuanzhen, force the Mongolian people, and naturalize into Gansu.

Sun Yuanzhen got a bad head.

"My lord, there are more than 10,000 of us, what are we going to fight for?" Tao Jin told him to wake up quickly, stop dreaming.

"Borrow chickens to lay eggs."

Kou Shen is tricky.

Asked people to prepare paper and ink, and he immediately replied.

When this cavalry crossed, Gansu Town sent troops to cut off its rear route, but all the prisoners, Gansu Town had to divide half.

Tao Jin was dumbfounded, you are too capable of deceiving, right?

More than 10,000 people, cut off more than 100,000 people?

Can Fan Guang believe it?

"Soldiers don't get tired of cheating, we call this a white lie." Kou Shen was complacent and sent someone to deliver the message.

"Draw all the troops, concentrate on Junoze, and this official will personally fight this battle!" Kou Shen is also a military and political all-rounder.

"My lord, draw all the troops? The border is not guarded? Yang Jie asked stupidly.

Kou Shen gave him a roll of his eyes: "Such a broken Gansu, who do you say can rob it?" Grab the loess? ”

"Hurry up and deliver the message, except for the Suzhou guard who left a thousand people, the rest of the soldiers are all transferred!"

"When more than 100,000 people are collected, we officials in Gansu will at least have someone to take care of."

Tao Jin, Yang Jie, and Li Duan all nodded.

We all know that Gansu is barren, but I don't know that the barrenness has become such a dead appearance, there are less than 200,000 Dingkou, and there are only 40,000 or 50,000 Han people, who can believe it?

The town of Gansu is moving.

Ningxia Wei also moved.

Fan Guang scattered the army along the way, with Shenying as the vanguard.

Of the seventy-one horsemen in Shenying's family, there are only fifty people left.

The lance cavalry is one man and three horses, the war horse is in flight, one horse carries armor, and one horse rides.

Twenty-six thousand horses were gathered.

There are a lot of war horses in Hetao now, and with Datong Town and Xuanzhen out of the customs, after crossing the Great Wall, the territory is pushed north.

The price of war horses has fallen rapidly in Daming.

However, the price of raising horses has soared, and a horse herd industry chain has been born.

Fan Guang has about 30,000 people in his hands.

It's all cavalry musketeers.

On the horizon, wolf smoke ignited.

"Lord Commander, there is a signal from Zhenyuan Pass, that cavalry has approached Zhenyuan Pass!" The herald came to report.

Fan Guang decided to set up an ambush along the Dusitu River.

As a result, wait, wait, wait, the cavalry turned back and headed west.

"It's broken!"

"It must have been a long time since I heard from Tuobati."

"Scared the prey away!"

Fan Guang reacted too late.

Ningxia Wei had already cut off the return route of the cavalry.

By the time Fan Guang arrived, Ningxia Wei had already been overwhelmed.

The cavalry swept westward like a black torrent.

Fan Guang led the army to chase after him.

On the grassland outside the Great Wall, two torrents, one chasing and the other.

The Balbas burrowed into the Alxa Desert.

In the Western Xia, the Alxa Desert used to be the main road connecting the east and the west, and it was very prosperous, but it was destroyed by years of war, and now it has become an endless desert.

The Mongolian people are good at running, and when they enter the desert, they can also get out of the desert with super willpower.

The most important thing is that the Balbas are well prepared for the migration, and they have enough food to survive, even if they walk in the desert for a year.

Because they drove horses, cattle and sheep on the march, they could eat horses and sheep when they were hungry.

Fan Guang made a difficulty.

He sent troops without food supplies, and the nearest supply was at Zhenyuan Pass.

"Lord Commander, mark your willingness to go deep into the desert!" Shenying asks for battle.

Fan Guang was not in a hurry to make a decision: "Bring the map." ”

"The Balbas should have come out of the desert, so they are very familiar with the desert, and they won't get lost when they go in."

The map is not exhaustive.

Fortunately, Zhenyuanguan sent a detailed map.

The Alxa Desert is divided into Badain Jaran Desert, Tengger Desert and Ulan Buhe Desert.

In the middle of the Badain Jaran Desert and the Tengger Desert, the area is narrow.

If you take this road, you will reach Junozawa.

That's the key out of the desert, it's an oasis.

Passing through Junozawa, heading west is a smooth road.

"If Gansu Town sends troops to hold the enemy's throat, where will the troops be placed?" Fan Guang asked Shenying and others.

Shen Ying and the others exclaimed: "What do you mean, Lord Kou is setting up an ambush in Juye Ze?" ”

"Definitely."

Zhenyuan Pass has been miserable.

More than 4,000 soldiers, all lost.

If Gansu Town is strangled again, he Fan Guang will not be able to get out of it.

"My lord, can you save it?" Fang Neng wiped the sweat from his face, the weather on the edge of the desert was too hot.

"Save!"

Fan Guang was not verbose, he had to be saved, and he had no negotiation.

"What about supplies?" Tan Xu asked.

Fan Guang gritted his teeth and said: "We don't have supplies, so we will rob their cattle and sheep to eat!" ”

"The living cannot be suffocated by urine!"

"Command, go to the nearest place to get water, and when you have enough water, you will enter the desert!"

"I transferred the most grain from Ningxia Wei, and if I borrow more horses, I will have as many horses as I want."

"Fan Sheng, you personally visit Ningxiawei, find a few guides, and lead us out of the desert!"

Meanwhile.

Cao Jixiang tortured Ding Xuan.

"Stop fighting, I said, I said!" Ding Xuan screamed non-stop, and it was his wife and children who were tortured to him!

On the contrary, for a childless person like Qin Zhao, interrogating him was a pure waste of time.

Ding Xuan's daughter is really ruthless.

Take a soldering iron and scorch the underside of his own father.

Ding Xuan was covered in blood and miserable.

Cao Jixiang drinks tea beautifully, and the tea is accompanied by the smell of meat, which is beautiful.

The emperor issued an order to arrest all the businessmen from Jiangnan and investigate them one by one.

The edict of the patrol camp can no longer be put down.

borrowed the Jinyi Guard's edict.

"Go on."

Alcohol is not allowed while on duty.

Otherwise, Cao Jixiang would have to have a few drinks, looking at this scene, it was a little refreshing.

Ding Xuan's daughter trembled and continued to burn, except for the unfamiliar technique, her eyes were indifferent.

It's definitely scrapped.

He can't get out of prison anyway, what's the use of that thing?

Let's play with it.

"I say everything, I say everything......" Ding Xuan kept begging for mercy.

But Cao Jixiang likes to listen to it.

"Cao Xuan, make another pot."

Cao Xuan couldn't stand the smell of meat, and rushed out to vomit.

"It's rubbish." Cao Jixiang remembered his heir Cao Qin, Cao Qin was able to inherit his mantle, and the other nephews were very mediocre, but it was a pity.

"I say! I say! Ding Xuan wanted to say.

The problem is that Cao Jixiang doesn't want to hear it.

And his daughter was branded.

Appalling.

Cao Jixiang held his stomach, went out to the toilet, and came back after a while, waved his hand, and asked people to drag Ding Xuan over.

Ding Xuan kept wailing.

His wives and concubines and children were wiping tears from their eyes.

"These people are not your wives and concubines, are they?" Cao Jixiang asked him.

Ding Xuan was dumbfounded.

The wives and concubines and children all knelt on the ground, their faces full of horror.

Cao Jixiang pointed to the daughter who was executed: "You branded your own father, but you didn't feel half guilty, and your methods became more and more skillful." ”

"And you, can you cry tears? Don't do thunder and no rain, Ben Du looks uncomfortable. ”

"And you, can you cry tears? Don't do thunder and no rain, Ben Du looks uncomfortable. ”

Cao Jixiang pointed to Ding Xuan's second son.

"You too, when you cry, you cover your eyes with your hands, but when you take your hands down, there are no tears on your hands."

"There are too many flaws."

"Ben Du looks at you, and you have many secrets."

Ding Xuan opened his mouth wide, he didn't expect so many flaws.

"Do you want to have a good time? Or continue to be tortured? Cao Jixiang stared at Ding Xuan.

Ding Xuan closed his eyes in despair: "The villain is Jiang Zuomeng's people!" ”

"Let's talk about it."

In Ding Xuan's mouth, Jiang Zuomeng is omnipotent.

Jiang Zuomeng has a list.

The list is in the hands of the alliance leader, and the alliance leader relies on this list to contact the members of the alliance on a single line.

In the early stage, the Jiangzuo League would support the members of the league and engage in politics and business, but the members of the league must be ready to give everything for the league if they want to wait for the awakening.

Cao Jixiang's eyes flashed.

It's the Dead Room!

Emperor Xuanzong liked to use the dead room the most, especially after eight years of Xuande, he buried a lot of dead rooms, placed them in many departments, and waited for them to blossom and bear fruit.

And this Jiang Zuomeng is not like the handiwork of a certain businessman.

It's more like standing in the court, someone's handwriting.

What is the purpose?

Cao Jixiang raided Qin Zhao again.

Ding Xuan's wife, concubines, and children were all interrogated, as well as many members of the arrested.

The result was gathered into a book and sent to the palace.

Cao Jixiang personally went to deliver it.

"Emperor, the slave guesses that this is the handiwork of the first emperor!" Cao Jixiang asked Zhu Qiyu to retreat left and right and secretly tell him.

Zhu Qiyu stared: "Let's talk carefully." ”

"The slave maid also heard Xing'an talk about it."

"In the eighth year of Xuande, the envoys of fifteen countries entered Beijing for the Hajj and raised the prestige of our Ming Dynasty."

"But in the ninth year of Xuande, the first emperor sent Wang Jinghong to the West again, but the first emperor didn't wait for Wang Jinghong to come back."

"In the ninth year of Xuande, after the first emperor patrolled the border, Xuande died suddenly in the first month of the tenth year."

"Xing'an said that during this period of time, the first emperor once wanted to expand the scale of the Songjiang Shipyard, and then increase the shipbuilding support, increase the scale of cruises, and continue to expand the scale of the Western Ocean."

"Even, the first emperor once conceived that the agricultural tax would be replaced by prosperous commerce, and the tax law of the Mengyuan era would be restored, so that the people would not be so tired."

"But this is just an idea, because the first emperor died suddenly!"

Cao Jixiang said: "Xing'an once said that during this time, the first emperor used factory guards and frequently appeared in Nanzhili. ”

"The slave suspects that this so-called Jiangzuo League is a secret chess piece buried by the first emperor back then."

Zhu Qiyu was annoyed.

If Xing'an doesn't die, those deaths are all his means.

Pity.

"You mean, this Jiang Zuo League is the chess of the first emperor?" Zhu Qiyu naturally suspected Zhu Qizhen.

"Back to the emperor, the slave and maid are eighty percent sure."

Cao Jixiang said.

Only the specially trained dead can be so loyal.

Jiang Zuomeng's scale is huge, and it is by no means something that ordinary businessmen can do, and the courtiers, the oldest, is Hu Hu.

Could it be that Hu Hu has a heart of disobedience?

It's simply impossible.

Cao Jixiang didn't dare to elaborate, but pointed at Zhu Qizhen.

"If it is really death, why rebel against the imperial court?" Zhu Qiyu wondered.

"Emperor, you are the emperor, and there are still people, and you are also the emperor!" Cao Jixiang lay on the ground.

Zhu Qiyu groaned.

He was thinking, what is Zhu Qizhen doing with these moths?

What Jiangzuo League, wait for me to plow the Jiangnan again, and see what other alliance can exist?

Is this the Jiangnan gentry, taking the opportunity to demonstrate to me?

After the sea ban, who is the biggest profiteer?

Do you need to elaborate?

"Cao Jixiang, do you also think that the death of the first emperor is unusual?" Zhu Qiyu focused on this.

"Back to the emperor, the slave doesn't dare to speculate."

Zhu Qiyu frowned: "This hall is full of my henchmen, don't worry, it won't be passed on." ”

"Emperor, the first emperor just returned from patrolling the border in September of the ninth year of Xuande, and there are still dragons and tigers on the road."

"It is even said that the first emperor was in very good health before his death."

"Just like you, the emperor, suddenly became seriously ill, and in three days, you will be in power!"

Cao Jixiang said these are all taboo words.

Zhu Qiyu took the place and muttered to himself: "In three days, the first emperor will be gone." ”

"Me too, I got sick for some reason, and I almost died."

"Emperor Renzong too."

Zhu Qiyu's eyes were as cold as frost: "Is this emperor of the Ming Dynasty destined not to live long?" ”

In the palace of nourishing the heart, the palace people who were waiting were so frightened that they fell to the ground.

"Emperor, since the death of the first emperor, he has never been to the West." Cao Jixiang aggravated the emperor's suspicions.

Feng Xiao said: "In the eighth year of orthodoxy, the king of Mobei ordered Ma Yun and others to go to the West again. ”

Cao Jixiang retorted: "Although I went to the Western Ocean, the fleet was scattered. ”

"Only a few ships have returned to the Ming Dynasty."

"And it was thirteen years of orthodoxy at that time."

"It's been five years, and only a few people have come back!"

"And the leader of the fleet, the eunuch Hong Bao, is unknown in his life and death."

"Chu Wang, who came back, also returned from Yunnan by land, but when he came back, Chu Wang had already become a monk and was left in Nanjing Bao'en Temple by the King of Mobei."

"But Chu Wang disappeared in the fourteenth year of orthodoxy!"

"The palace was supposed to investigate, but the defeat of the civil fort occurred, and the matter was never investigated again."

Cao Jixiang looked at Feng Xiao: "Father-in-law Feng, tell me, is this going to the West?" ”

Feng Xiao squirmed his lips.

Indeed, the eight years of orthodoxy in the West can only be described as a joke.

Zhao Wang and the others who came back couldn't even tell where they went.

The mighty treasure ships, and those who come back, are all small boats.

Where did the treasure ship go?

"Emperor, in the fourteenth year of orthodoxy, the fleet of the Ming Dynasty has mysteriously disappeared." Cao Jixiang aggravated the emperor's suspicions.

Zhu Qiyu frowned: "Fourteen years of orthodoxy, eventful autumn." ”

Cao Jixiang prostrate on the ground, not daring to say more.

"You mean, the first emperor died in the Western Ocean and patrolling the border?" Zhu Qiyu understood.

"The slave doesn't dare to speculate about the first emperor!" Cao Jixiang hurriedly kowtowed.

But the meaning is very clear, the first emperor died on these two points.

The first emperor was also careless.

Because he never imagined that Emperor Xuande would die of an inexplicable illness.

Just like Emperor Jingtai, he also died of an illness.

Orthodox Emperor, Chenghua Emperor, Hongzhi Emperor, Zhengde Emperor, which one died normally? Who lived past forty?

"I see."

Zhu Qiyu groaned: "According to your speculation, Ding Xuan should be, Jiang Zuomeng deliberately left it to my people, for me to see, to beat me." ”

That's right.

Use Ding Xuan to indirectly tell the emperor the cause of Emperor Xuanzong's death.

Let the emperor be afraid.

"Ask the emperor to give an order, the slave and maid will go to Nanzhili in person to arrest all Jiangnan businessmen!" Cao Jixiang kowtowed.

"Jiang Zuomeng can't make a big climate."

Zhu Qiyu sneered: "Cao Jixiang, you can show me Jinggi." ”

He slowly stood up and walked in front of Cao Jixiang: "You are my minion, I can give you power, give you wealth, change the emperor, but it will be gone." ”

What was he thinking?

Can Zhu Qiyu not understand?

As factory guards, only the more suspicious the emperor is, the more they can play a real role.

Everyone has their own little abacus.

"Ask the emperor to rest assured, the slave will always be loyal to the emperor!" Cao Jixiang kowtowed heavily to show his loyalty.

"Faithfulness is not spoken, it must be done."

Zhu Qiyu helped him up with his own hands: "The patrol camp has performed well, and I will give you a bronze talisman." ”

"Slave and maid, thank the emperor for his grace!" Cao Jixiang was dripping in cold sweat.

The emperor was beating him.

Tell him, don't be careful, my West Factory can clean you up.

"Let's go down."

Zhu Qiyu asked Feng Xiao: "Can the goods be counted?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the count has not been completed yet, and the current figure is 12 million taels."

Zhu Qiyu was shocked: "So many? ”

Feng Xiao was also taken aback by this number, it was really a lot.

"Emperor, I just counted seventy percent, and the total number is about 20 million taels."

I have money, but I don't know how to spend it.

The corners of Zhu Qiyu's mouth naturally raised, and his mood jumped: "After the inventory is completed, if it is confirmed, return the family property, and give them some business to make up for it." ”

"Emperor, is it really back?" Feng Xiao was distressed.

"I am the emperor, how can I do the act of a robber?"

Zhu Qiyu glanced at him: "What should be repaid, what shouldn't be repaid, not repaid, understand?" ”

Feng Xiao understood.

What the emperor means is to leave the silver, jewelry and antiques, and return them as much as possible, and if it is not enough, give a house to offset the account.

Anyway, the market price of antiques or something is low now.

It is better to sell it directly to the merchant at a high price.

The court wants silver everywhere.

I didn't see it, the important ministers of the cabinet looked at the emperor every day, and the governors everywhere cried and wanted to drink.

"By the way, Xuan Shipu entered the palace."

Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered: "I haven't been to Renshou Palace for a long time to say hello?" You go and make arrangements, and I will go and say hello in the evening. ”

"Slave obeys!" Feng Xiao understood that the emperor's suspicion was committed again.

In Junozawa.

Kou Shen was circled: "Are you sure?" The cavalry is crossing the desert in our direction? ”

"My lord, mark what you see with your own eyes!" Li Duan's mouth was bitter.

They ate sand here for more than ten days.

Just waiting to make a big achievement.

As a result, the great work did not come, and the great disaster came.

"Why the return trip!" Kou Shen was really stunned.

So who knows?

"My lord, let's leave!" Yang Jie glanced at the troops, all of them were lazy, without the slightest appearance of an army.

The army has been in formation for less than two months.

It's okay to fight with the wind.

Fight against the wind and surrender in minutes.

"Do you know where Fan Guang is?" Kou Shen asked again.

Li Duan shook his head and said he didn't know.

"If Fan Guang falls with that cavalry, we may have the strength to fight." Kou Shen looked at the map repeatedly.

"My lord, with these people to fight?"

Yang Jie was very speechless, there are less than 3,000 old soldiers in Gansu Town, and these 3,000 people can go to the battlefield.

For the rest, let's practice for another year.

"Don't worry."

Kou Shen delved into the map: "Our place is the main road to the west. ”

"If we get out of the way."

"If Fan Guang falls behind, he may never be able to catch up with this cavalry."

"If we don't get out of the way, as long as the other party charges, we will definitely lose."

"It's hard to choose."

Kou Shen fell into deep thought: "Ling Ye does not close and probe again, see how the momentum of this cavalry is?" Are there any pursuers? Where is my Ming army? ”

And in the desert.

Fan Guang took off his shirt and was shirtless, the entire cavalry was much the same, and the armor couldn't be worn.

It's too hot in the desert.

When they trained, they didn't train in the desert, so many of them didn't adapt to the climate and fell ill.

There are no stops of attrition along the way.

He left people to take care of them, and transported the wounded out of the desert to the nearest town for treatment.

The food I had brought with me was almost gone.

Patience is also worn out.

There were voices of complaints in the army, and they wanted to fight urgently.

"My lord, our army is no longer patient, and I am afraid that the bald department will be even more disheartened."

Fang can come and report.

Fan Guang bowed: "We have few troops, so we have to seize every opportunity." ”

"My lord, I am willing to go and get food!" Fang can ask for battle.

I have been in the desert for fourteen days.

The Ming army has gradually become accustomed to the desert environment, although it is falling bald, but the Ming army is practicing in the desert, how to gallop horses, how to open guns.

Fan Guang took a sip of water, not daring to waste a drop.

He asked his guide, "How long will it take to get to Junozawa?" ”

"Back to my lord, four days at most." The guide replied.

Fan Guang looked at Fang Neng.

"My lord, now must be the time when the Bald Tribes are at their most vulnerable." Fang can think.

The Balbasi tribe is a migration of the entire tribe, and there are many old people, women, and children in it, and the march speed is slow and the consumption is also large.

The more people there are, the more chaotic people's hearts become.

Moreover, they came from the Qianhe River, they have been walking for a few months, and they are still walking, and the key moment is that there are chasing soldiers behind them, and there is no news from the front army, so it is inevitable that they will feel worried in their hearts.

The mindset must have reached a tipping point.

"Fang Neng, fight!"

Fang Neng received the order, ordered 2,000 people, rolled up the yellow sand with the horse's hooves, and galloped the horse.

Quickly approaching the Bald Division.

The leader of the Balbasi tribe changed his name to Tuoba Yuan.

Because during the Northern Wei Dynasty, Tuoba changed his surname to Yuan, so he called himself "Yuan".

Tuoba Yuan already knew that his younger brother Tuobati was defeated and captured.

He was ready to go to the eastern foothills of Altun Mountain for nomadism.

Do not go to the sphere of influence of the Ming army.

But because it was a tribal migration, it brought him a big stumbling block.

He had 20,000 cavalry at his disposal.

If the losses are too great, the herdsmen of the tribe can also be recruited, and as long as they have enough weapons, they can raise an army of 50,000.

The Balds were poor and did not have enough weapons.

Tuobati fell in love with the Ming army.

As a result, he sent thousands of miles to the head and gave more than 20,000 horses to the Ming army.

Fang Neng led the army in the blink of an eye.

His target was the cattle and sheep driven by the Bald Tribe.

The Mongolian expedition to Europe relied on these four-legged sheep, which were used as military rations, and they were driven and eaten at the same time.

"Damn it, it's well guarded!"

When the house was able to get closer, the bald cavalry surrounded the cattle and sheep, and the herdsmen began to drive the cattle and sheep in a safe direction.

Use cavalry to separate the cattle and sheep from the Fang Neng army.

Fang Neng smiled at them.

"Shoot!"

Bang Bang Bang!

The fiery bell rang out.

Those bald people were full of bewilderment, still greeting the fire.

As a result, countless people turned over and fell off their horses.

Fang Neng led the army in the blink of an eye, and the saber fell.

Countless horses fell in the desert.

The bald cavalry screamed incessantly: "Ghost, ghost is coming!" ”

The chaos spread among the cavalry.

Tuoba Yuan asked urgently, "What happened?" ”

"Great King, the Ming people are ghosts, they are so far away from us, they are fired, and our people are dead in the blink of an eye."

The Bald Brothers were incoherent.

Tuoba Yuan understood that the Ming army's guns were powerful and long-range.

"Lao Tzu personally supervises the formation, see who dares to mess up!" He rode his horse to the front of the battle.

It turned out that the Ming army raised guns.

He hurried to run.

Originally, Tuoba Yuan rushed to come, and the army's heart was shocked.

As a result, Tuoba Yuan turned around and fled, and the army's morale immediately collapsed.

Bang Bang Bang!

The fire bolt fired, striking the hearts of countless Bald Warriors.

Fang Neng personally led the army of long knives, swooping down quickly, wielding blades, like the scythe of death, constantly harvesting lives.

The rear army of the Bald Tribes collapsed in an instant.

And Fang Neng didn't chase after him, and directly robbed the cattle and sheep.

At this time, Fan Jiong rushed to the horse.

After chasing for a few miles, he found that he could not catch up with the defeated soldiers of the Bald Brothers at all.

"These Tartars are so good at running for their lives."

Fang can let Fan Jiong help collect the cattle and sheep, and the army has relied on these cattle and sheep for the past four days of food and drink.

Fan Guang led the crowd to arrive and counted the number of cattle and sheep, about 1,000 heads.

"That's it?" Fan Guang was unhappy.

"My lord, our people won't drive the cattle and sheep, they all ran away." Fang Neng scratched his hair, very embarrassed.

Originally, the results were very gratifying.

As a result, the Ming army didn't know how to shepherd the sheep, and the sheep ran away, but fortunately the cattle ran slowly, and there were still a few left.

"How much gunpowder was used?" Fan Guang didn't ask about the results.

In the desert, as long as there are firearms, the Ming army has an advantage.

"Half of it is left." The room can be considered to be very economical.

Fan Guang was a little dissatisfied: "Next time, save a little, we don't have supplies before and after, and we have to use as much as we brought." ”

"The war has just begun, and I don't know how long it will take."

Although Fan Guang has a bad temper, he treats his subordinates sincerely and is willing to tolerate the mistakes of his subordinates.

Therefore, the subordinates are willing to serve.

"Mark and know what is wrong." Fang can confess.

Fan Guang patted him on the shoulder: "Just remember." ”

"Shenying!"

Shenying is dismantling a cow and planning to do a trick to dismantle the cow, but in fact, he is hungry.

"Mark it in!" Shenying came over quickly.

"The Bald Division will definitely not be reconciled, maybe the camp will be attacked tonight, you will be the garrison and patrol the night."

"Mark and obey!" Shenying doesn't care, he can eat beef, it's better than anything else.

"My lord, those thieves are too capable of escaping, and it may be difficult to leave them all in the desert." Fan Jiong is not called a father, but an official position.

Fan Guang glanced at him: "Can you use your brain?" ”

Fan Jiong grabbed his hair, very embarrassed.

"When did Ben say that he would leave them in the desert by fighting?"

Fan Guang asked rhetorically: "Let's fall on them to wait for them to be exhausted, and then eat them!" ”

"But they run away fast!" Fan Jiong was puzzled.

"That's because they can still eat enough, so naturally they have the strength to run."

Fan Guang said with a smile: "When they can't eat enough, they will think that the hungry lion will fight us to the death!" ”

"When the time comes for the decisive battle, don't cry when you kid, you will be content!"

Fan Guang laughed, and his son grew up.

Alas, the dog that has been raised for nearly three years has been given away, and it is upset! The author likes dogs, but he hates to clean up dog poop or something, it's all my mom in charge, but my mom is in bad health, and her health is worse this year, and she has a fever every day. I think she has added a lot of work because of raising a dog, so she can't help it, so she can only decide not to raise it, and decided to send it away, find a good person to send it away, but she feels very uncomfortable, but she can't help it, alas, it's uncomfortable~
