After hearing the word "march", Lan Yu was short of breath and took the lead in standing up.

said: "Your Highness! The minister is willing to lead 200,000 old troops and new troops to the north to conquer the Northern Yuan! ”

"For His Highness, break the royal court in one fell swoop and completely destroy the Northern Yuan!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, it was Beiyuan.

And Feng Sheng and Fu Youde were the same, and they went straight to the Northern Yuan.

The purpose is to completely eliminate the Northern Yuan!

As long as the Northern Yuan can be eliminated, it is not unacceptable even if the old army is eliminated, after all, the army still has to be commanded by these generals.

Even if one or two talents emerge from the new army, it will be difficult to shake their position.

It's just that the number of people who can command is much smaller.

There is no such thing as a large battle of millions of troops at every turn in the past, but with the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, if you really do your best, I am afraid that it will only be easy to really mobilize a million troops.

Now the war potential of the Ming Dynasty is far higher than that of the previous Ming Dynasty by several times!

It's just that Zhu Yunxi turned this part of the potential into a foundation, which was used to continue to precipitate and accumulate the development of the Ming Dynasty.

“……”

But the Northern Expedition, how the Northern Expedition?

Zhu Yunxi was speechless, these guys were completely carried away, and Zhu Yunxi could understand that they were mixed with a lot of personal emotions.

After all, his whole life is basically the enemy of the Northern Yuan.

But Zhu Yunxi would never have gone on the Northern Expedition now.

With a total of only 200,000 old troops, plus tens of thousands of new troops, Zhu Yunxi was not worried that these Ming troops would not be able to defeat the Northern Yuan.

But wanting to eliminate the Northern Yuan is tantamount to a joke.

Mobei is vast, and if people hide it in the depths, you won't find it.

Does Zhu Yunxi want to send these hundreds of thousands of troops to play hide and seek with them in the Mobei grassland? This is naturally impossible.

Therefore, in Zhu Yunxi's eyes, at least in the past three years, there is no talk of the Northern Expedition.

"The Northern Expedition, it must be the Northern Expedition."

Zhu Yunxi naturally couldn't say that there was no Northern Expedition in his plan, which was undoubtedly an act that undermined the morale of the people.

But then he said: "But now the Ming Navy is going to the Western Ocean." ”

"It's a long way to go, and there's nowhere to stop, no supplies, no reliable ground support."

"This is the top priority of the Ming Army."

"Therefore, Lone's idea is to conquer the land of Annam in the south, not for the purpose of subduing Annam, but only to control the port and open up the market."

"Aim to obtain the garrison of the Ming army."

"The small country of Annan has been a part of China since ancient times, and in recent years, it has been arrogant and arrogant, trying in vain to provoke my Ming Dynasty."

"Such arrogance must teach him some lessons!"

Annan, for sure, is going to take it.

In a game played by Zhu Yunxi in his previous life, if he chose the script of the early Ming Dynasty, the first task was to recover Annan!

Because in the era of the Ming Dynasty.

From the hearts of the Ming people, Annan still belongs to the Ming Dynasty.

However, Zhu Yunxi is not very interested in the land of Annan, and he is not even very interested in the domestic market of Annan.

What he really cared about was Annan's help with the Western trade routes.

Just imagine, if Zhu Yunxi arranged for a garrison to be stationed in Annanhai Port, and another navy to patrol the surrounding waters.

Wipe out pirates.

Naturally, this trade route became safe and popular with Western merchants.

At the same time, it was also more convenient for the merchants of the Ming Dynasty to go to the West.

This is extremely beneficial to maritime trade, and if there are Ming garrisons and Ming naval patrols all over the world, at that time, Ming merchant ships are not going wherever they want?

Even, where do the merchant ships of other countries want to go.

You have to get the consent of Daming!

This is the true way to reap the wealth of the world! The world's maritime trade must follow the system set by the Ming Dynasty!

So Zhu Yunxi set his sights on Annan.

This undoubtedly disappointed the generals who had been looking forward to the Northern Expedition for a long time, but compared to Zhu Yunxi's direct statement at the beginning that the army would be dismantled, now at least there is a battle to be fought, which means that there is merit to be made.

It can also allow future generations of their own children and grandchildren to go to the battlefield to hone and hone.

This is an extremely noble inheritance and opportunity for the noble military generals.

Every big war needs to be grasped, especially now that Daming is gradually singing and dancing, seeing that in addition to these old opponents, there is really no battle to fight.

It's just that they didn't expect it.

In the future, there will be more battles to be fought!

Now it's just that Daming's background is insufficient, and he can't swallow the world, Zhu Yunxi will be silent, and Daming, the tiger, will sleep soundly!

"Obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Grand Sun!"

Seeing that Zhu Yunxi had made up his mind and had nothing to discuss, the generals had to accept this fact.

I'm going to wait for a specific charter to be discussed at the Military Affairs Office.

After all, fighting a war is not a trivial matter, it is necessary to mobilize grain and grass first, and so many artillery pieces of the new army are not so lucky.

One step ahead must be taken.

Then the army will press on.

And the army must be divided into several directions, and cannot be gathered in one group.

Not only can it not be launched, but it may be wiped out by someone, causing a tragedy of burning the camp for hundreds of miles and burying all the elites.

The affairs of the army are already a foregone conclusion.

But Zhu Yunxi didn't have time to be in a hurry for half an hour, and Xia Yuanji, the head of the household, came out and said: "Your Royal Highness, the minister has something to do." ”

This was the case in the early Ming Dynasty.

There are always busy affairs, saying that it is an early morning, but it is easy to delay until noon.

Even at night, it is not impossible to have another evening dynasty.

And for Lao Zhu, a workaholic, the late dynasty is already the norm, but Zhu Yunxi doesn't like the late dynasty very much.

More often after the early dynasty, the affairs were placed in the Wenhua Pavilion Advisory Office to be handled.

This is one of the reasons why Zhu Yunxi set up the Advisory Office.

"Say it."

Zhu Yunxi nodded in agreement.

Tobe Shangshu Xia Yuanji only then spoke.

said: "Your Royal Highness, it has been two years since the first treasury bond was issued. ”

"I see that the day of repayment is approaching."

"Although the treasury of the Ming Dynasty is full enough to repay the national debt, if you want to continue to build the Jinling Yangtze River Bridge and water conservancy in various places."

"It is bound to deplete the treasury of the Ming Dynasty."

"And at that time, when the Ming national debt matures, won't it be unable to repay?"

"Losing trust with the people?"

"Please also ask Your Highness to pay attention to the balance of the Ming Dynasty's finances, and keep the principal and return it to the people."

Natsuhara reminded him.

Because in his opinion, the national debt is always to be repaid, and as time goes by, the maturity of the national debt is getting closer and closer.

Although there is still a long time, there are too many places for Daming to use money now.

And His Royal Highness Taisun seems to have paid no attention to leaving enough principal at all.

Xia Yuanji was afraid that there would be a mistake at that time, which would make Da Ming lose his trust to the people, leading to unforeseen things.

It's just that he never thought about it......

Zhu Yunxi never thought about repaying the national debt at all!

National debt, need to be repaid?
