The tenth day of the first month, the court discussion.

Early in the morning, the ministers had basically arrived at the noon gate, and before the emperor arrived, the ministers were already exchanging views on the changes in the situation in the northwest.

"What about negative charts?"

Tu Tu looked around, but didn't see Ma Wensheng's figure, it stands to reason that there is any change in the situation at this time, and it is most appropriate to ask Ma Wensheng.

Not only Ma Wensheng was not there, but even Liu Jian and Xie Qian were not there.

Zhou Jing replied: "Ma Butang stayed in the cabinet duty room last night, and I heard from Chen Gonggong, the master of ceremonies, that when it was close to the morning, Liu Ge Lao and Ma Butang were summoned by His Majesty. It seems that last night's battle report continued. ”

As soon as Tu Tu heard it, he knew that there were many people who had no sleep last night.

The emperor was concerned about the war situation in the northwest, and Ma Wensheng and others had to be on duty at night, waiting for the emperor to meet at any time.

It wasn't until the rising sun that Zhu Youzhu arrived with his tired body, and Xie Qian and Ma Wensheng came with him, and Liu Jianjian was not seen.

After the start of the court meeting.

Zhu Youji gave a general explanation of the situation.

"Liu Ge Lao was busy all night last night, and he went back to rest early in the morning, and he had to enter the cabinet department in the afternoon...... It's hard work...... Let's talk about the situation in Liaodong. ”

Zhu Youji's eyes couldn't open, and he commanded Dai Yi next to him.

Dai Yi then took out a war report: "...... Duoyan and other three guards Dayukou Liaodong Yizhou, the official army was defeated, chased out of the stopper, beheaded one hundred and forty-nine levels, and won one hundred and two horses...... Du Yushi Zhang Yu reported with good news! ”

When the ministers present heard the news, they looked at each other one by one.

That's ......

Won a round?

Why doesn't it seem that the style is not quite right, isn't there a heated discussion in the court yesterday about whether Wang Weining should send troops at the partial head pass?

Why did it become a victory on the Liaodong side at the end of the day, and he also beheaded one hundred and forty-nine levels, which is much more powerful than Wang Weining's forty-two beheadings in the battle of Helan Mountain!

If the battle of Helan Mountain can be called a great victory.

Then this battle of Yizhou reached the pinnacle of the nine-sided war during the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty!

But why not Wang Yue?

"The situation in Ningxia and Guyuan, let's talk about it too!"

Zhu Youzhu may have felt that there were some debatable points about the success of the battle in Yizhou, Liaodong, or the emperor's expectations were not in Yizhou, so there was no big reaction.

The king was not excited, and the ministers did not speak casually.

Dai Yi said: "There are also war reports from Ningxia and other places, and there are soldiers and horses of the little prince of Tatar in Liangzhou and other places, and Liangzhou West Road has intersected with it, and there has been no exchange of troops ......."

Xu Guan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, said: "Your Majesty, it seems that the Tatars have made changes in each border town this time, and they are intentional, or they should coordinate the troops and horses of all walks of life in case of accidents." ”

The ministers also shared this idea.

Yesterday's focus was still on the fire sieve department to attack the Biaotou Pass, and today we will focus on all parts of the Nine Sides, and even the Liaodong Yizhou has already achieved results, and the real main force of the Tatars, that is, the Dayan Division, does not seem to appear in the Deviation Pass, but on the Liangzhou side, doesn't that mean...... Is it still wrong for the emperor to lay out Wang Yue at the wrong level?

Zhu Youzhu said: "I have discussed with Liu Ge Lao and Ma Shangshu last night, and issued an order overnight, ordering the garrison of Guyuan to command the servant Li Rui to assist in guarding Liangzhou, and then ordering the deputy commander of the Liangzhou Association to command the left side to serve as the left staff general and guard the Ningxia West Road. Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any objections? ”

The orders have been issued, and there is any point in disagreeing here?

Of course, the ministers didn't think that this was a wrong decision, and they could probably only say that this was a remedial measure made by the emperor after arranging Wang Yue wrongly in the wrong place.

Bai Ang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, said: "Your Majesty, should you use Pingjiang Bo Chen Rui to transfer Ningxia to prevent Tatars from advancing eastward?" ”

Although Chen Rui suffered a lot of losses in the battle with the fire sieve, it seems that Chen Rui did not fall behind in the battle with Dayan Khan Batu Munk.

Bai Ang's suggestion is actually the same as many people's thoughts.

Since Your Majesty you are wrong, you should make amends.

Let's relax the guard of the partial head pass, and transfer the people who can fight to the three sides, after all, that is the area where the little prince of Tatar haunts the most, and the little prince of Tatar is subdued, and he can't find any moths in the fire.

"Not for now!"

Zhu Youji's attitude is still very clear, "In my opinion, the battle in the border is the most important, but there was no news from the border last night, or there were already troops. I think there will be results in the next two days. ”

Bai Ang said: "In the past two days, there have been reports of the battle of the Partial Pass, why is the war report interrupted?" ”

Ma Wensheng explained: "If Di Yi has signs of knocking on the pass, it is difficult to send out sentinels from inside the pass, and the news in the city pass is blocked, or it will be relieved after a day or two. ”

Xie Qian also smiled and said: "When the Tatars arrived at the side pass, they destroyed many earthen forts around them, and even the city fortress did not let go, did they just turn around and leave?" ”

This tone seems to mock those who do not know how to march and fight.

Originally, among the ministers, those who were not very proficient in military affairs, after listening to the reports from various places in the early dynasty, still felt that the emperor had wrongly placed Wang Yue in the Bitou Pass, which led to the little Tatar prince starting to plunder in Ningxia West Road and other places, and felt that the emperor's arrangement was inappropriate.

Who knew that Ma Wensheng here told the people present with his senior experience that the bias pass is still the top priority in this battle.

And the sudden vacuum of battle reports at the Yatou Pass is also likely to be the result of the Tatars beginning to besiege the city pass.

Tu Tu asked: "Your Majesty, should we transfer troops and horses from Datong Town to help?" ”

"Not necessarily."

Zhu Youzhu said, "If there is such a need, Wang Weining will mobilize it on his own, this battle has already greeted him, he has long known what he is going to encounter in front of him, I don't believe that with his experience, in the case of knowing this, it will be necessary to make hasty arrangements." ”

Although the emperor was very anxious about the battle at Bitou Pass, he still had confidence in Wang Yue.

Was Wang Yue temporarily sent to the Eccentric Pass?

Two months in advance, I told you what would happen to you at the Partial Pass, and I also knew that the Tatars would pour out of the nest, and if you had to wait for the war to begin, you would find that there were not enough soldiers and horses stationed at the Partial Pass, and you would have to recruit them from elsewhere...... Then you, Wang Yue, simply hit your head and die.

"Your Majesty, how should I be rewarded for the meritorious service in Yizhou, Liaodong?" Xu Qiong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, came out to ask for instructions.

Zhu Youzhu didn't answer.

Dai Yi on the side said: "Your Majesty has finished discussing with Liu Ge last night, and the two officials who have been promoted to the elite are each one level, each given a coat, and a thousand yuan. ”

After hearing this, the ministers present were a little unconvinced.

Wang Yue killed forty-two Tatars in Helan Mountain before, although it was directly with the little Tatar prince Dayanbu, and the intensity of the battle may be stronger than that of Liaodong, but these people in Liaodong have killed more than 100 people, so they will give such a little thing?

Speaking of which, Your Majesty, are you too partial?

Or, do you think that this result did not appear in the right place, so you deliberately suppressed the credit of Liao Zhang Yu and Li Gao?

……

……

The court meeting ended.

The ministers walked on the way out of the palace, and many people still had some doubts about the emperor's arrangements at the partial head pass.

"Elder Xie Ge, you said that this Di Yi attacked in the left, center and right, why did Your Majesty insist on the battle of the middle lane? If this is the case, then why not send more troops and horses from everywhere, but let Wang Weining take the responsibility alone? The victory of Yizhou in Liaodong is enough to boost the morale of the army, why is it that even the meritorious rewards are so salty? ”

Xie Qian became the representative of the imperial court for a while.

It was also Liu Jian and Li Dongyang who were not there, and others wanted to ask for the opinions of the civil officials, but they could only talk from Xie Qian.

Xie Qian smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, these words are going up to the court to ask Your Majesty, what are you doing next?" Your Majesty's thoughts, it is better not to speculate casually. As for why His Majesty would insist on using troops in a partial way...... Do you really not know? ”

Between the words, Xie Qian felt that things were a little funny.

You guys seem to be really closed-minded.

If you don't know, go back and inquire carefully, Wang Yue's departure to the head pass was calculated by Zhang Gongsheng, who claims to know everything about astronomy and geography, at least so far, everything is still reasonable and within its expectations.

At this time, do you still want Your Majesty to "change your mind"?

I'm afraid that you don't know how much this emperor trusts the Fang Shi around him, and Li Guangyi has forgotten the old reason of eunuchs and chaos in the dynasty so quickly?

……

……

The other end.

Zhu Youzhu took the celebrant and a few people on the way back to the Qianqing Palace.

At this time, Zhu Youji's steps were very steady, unlike in the past, when he would be out of breath when he walked a few more steps, now he can walk for a long time, and he can do it without changing his face.

Walked a while.

Zhu Youzhu stopped suddenly.

Dai Yi and the others, who were following behind, didn't react for a while, and almost bumped into Zhu Youji.

"You say, why didn't Bingkuan make a prediction about the affairs of Liaodong in advance?"

Only then did Zhu Youji ask the question he had been thinking about all the way away.

Dai Yi and the others were very confused when asked.

Could it be that in the future, if there is anything, you have to ask Zhang Zhou?

Don't allow Zhang Zhou to have something he doesn't know?

"Maybe it's not worth it, after all, Duoyanbu didn't cause real harm to my side."

Xiao Jing summed it up on the side.

"Yes."

Zhu Youzhu nodded.

Duoyan Sanwei, that is, the Tatar people's self-proclaimed Uliang Habu, is simply a representative of the wreck, and took the initiative to attack Yizhou in Liaodong, but was killed by the defenders of Yizhou like this, and lost his troops......

Sending experience to this level is a shame for the old man.

Zhu Youzhu pondered for a while and put forward an idea, "Is there a ...... The possibility of imposting? ”

"Ahh Should...... Not really, right? ”

This time, Xiao Jing didn't know what to say, so he hurriedly looked at Dai Yi for help.

Dai Yi glanced at him, as if he was blaming him, letting you talk casually, you know here? Now the emperor's question, you can't answer it, can you?

"Alas! Bingkuan is not here, I feel that I am tied to anything, how many days will he be able to finish the exam? ”

Zhu Youzhu was eager.

He pretended to be calm in front of the minister, but he didn't know how panicked he was, but there was some excitement in the panic, after all, it was the first time that he Zhu Youji had presided over such a big military operation, and there might be a big victory......

With anticipation and trepidation, his fragile little heart was somewhat unbearable.

Dai Yi said: "It will take many days to finish the exam." But tomorrow after noon, the first session will end. ”

"Then ask him, and if he dissects me, I don't have to be so anxious! Alas! It seems that I am going to have trouble sleeping and eating these days. ”
