Zhu Jingyuan is a speculator, so he wants to hook up with Zhao Yushan in order to get the support of the other party.

I have to say that Zhu Jingyuan saw it very thoroughly, because most of the people gathered under Zhao Yushan's command were also speculators who wanted to be promoted and make a fortune.

Contrary to Zhu Jingyuan, the crown prince has been generally recognized by scholars, so he must take the position of these people as his position, so he naturally can't get along with Zhao Yushan.

Zhu Jingyuan knew that going against Zhao Yushan was equivalent to having trouble with his father, but the scholars of the East Palace and the ministers of Qingliu came to persuade him to uphold justice, so Zhu Jingyuan had no choice at all.

If he insists on not listening to the advice of his subordinates, then he will eventually rebel against his relatives.

The final result is that he doesn't need Zhu Jingyuan to push, he will fall down himself.

Of course, in the final analysis, it is still Zhu Jingyuan's poor wrist, otherwise he will be controlled by his subordinates.

On the second day of the seventh month, Zhu Jinghong had already left the Yumen Pass, which was considered to have set foot on the territory of Dzungaria.

It was on this day that he received a reply from Baochai.

The situation was not bad as he expected, Zhu Jinghong directly ordered Yu Hai to go to Wuwei in person, and persuaded Wang Pei'an to focus on the overall situation.

Yes, when it is time to make a statement, Zhu Jinghong will not hesitate.

As for whether Wang Pei'an listens to persuasion or not, he doesn't care about him.

But it is worth mentioning that Zhu Jinghong is not standing on the sixth side, but the emperor behind Zhao Yushan.

Of course, this matter can be used as a shield for the sixth child, so that Zhu Jinghong will not offend the other side to death.

He had already thought of countermeasures for this matter, so he was familiar with the operation, but the Suzhou Mansion mentioned by Baochai made Zhu Jinghong pay special attention to it.

Baochai's disposal was perfect, and Zhu Jinghong was also much relieved.

At this moment, he was riding a horse to twenty miles outside the pass, and the main force of the Jingying infantry army was stationed in front.

In the past two months, the main force of the Qinghai Xingdu Division, as well as the Mongolian Jurchen tribes that were dispatched, had already fought against the Dzungar army.

Moreover, the scale of the battle has reached tens of thousands, and the two sides can be said to have won and lost each other, and they are already in the final stage before the decisive battle.

Compared with Dzungaria, the imperial court can be called a labor expedition, so it must take the initiative to end the battle as soon as possible, so it gave up the Great Wall to prepare for the war.

Otherwise, it will take a few years to stay in the pass and drag it out, not to mention whether the Ming Dynasty will collapse, at least the face of the Heavenly Empire will be lost.

In that case, it would be a loss to the wife and a soldier.

This time he came out with Ning Huanxiang, and Zhu Jinghong had chatted with him many times, so he was very clear about the difficulties of this governor.

The Emperor had given him a deadline to assess the rebellion within this year, and now he had only half a year left in July.

Thinking of Ning Huanxiang's bad deeds, Zhu Jinghong had already seen the military camp in front of him.

He had already sent someone to deliver the news in advance, so the generals of the Beijing camp who learned the news all came to the gate of the camp to greet them at this moment.

The Beijing camp is now the Yangwei Central Guard, the Guoyong Left Guard and the Yaowu Right Guard stationed in the northwest, respectively from the Yangwei Battalion, the Guoyong Battalion and the Yaowu Battalion, with a total of 15,000 soldiers.

The troops stationed here at this moment are the Guoyong Left Guard and the Yaowu Right Guard, which can be called the elite half-firearms army.

At this moment, many of the people standing at the gate of the camp are Zhu Jinghong's acquaintances, such as Hou Jing and Wang Jie, who have been appointed as generals.

Zhu Jinghong dismounted, and Sun Shaozu, who dismounted in advance, hurriedly followed and took the reins from him.

At this time, a group of Beijing camp generals came forward and knelt down on one knee to salute Zhu Jinghong.

"See the Thirteenth Master!"

Walking closer, Zhu Jinghong said with a smile: "Everyone, please get up!" ”

After everyone got up, Zhu Jinghong said to the person in front of him: "Commander Chen, I haven't seen him for half a year...... You have seen the blessing, it seems that the cattle and sheep of Dzungaria are more nourishing than those in the pass! ”

Chen Baoxiang, who was mentioned by him, was the commander of the brave left guard, and now he has mixed with the title of second-class son, and he can barely be regarded as squeezing into the noble circle.

"The words of the thirteenth master really make the minister embarrassed!" Chen Baoxiang looked embarrassed.

"I know you, I have always loved soldiers like children, and you eat well...... The soldiers at the bottom want to come and eat well, so they will definitely win the battle! ”

The war is about logistics, and the Beijing camp and the guards in this era are treated better than usual during the battle, which makes the Tusi troops of the Ministry and Alliance who were transferred envious.

Zhu Jinghong walked forward as he spoke, and everyone present greeted him one after another, and he nodded in return one by one.

The generals who came to greet him started as generals, and there were only a few noble juniors who served as the general manager, so the number was only a dozen.

After being polite to everyone, Zhu Jinghong came to the big tent of the Chinese army and sat on the main seat at the invitation of everyone.

And Sun Shaozu stood beside Zhu Jinghong, looking at the group of Beijing camp generals thoughtfully.

"Ladies and gentlemen...... I was entrusted by the Holy Father to come to the northwest to inspect the northwest, and today I made a special trip to see your preparations! ”

If someone else says this, you must show the edict, after all, it is a major matter when it comes to the army, and even if it is an inspection, you must have a certificate.

But Zhu Jinghong...... No one would doubt his words, and even in extreme cases, the emperor would cover it up for him afterwards if he lied.

What's more, Zhu Jinghong was also sent to supervise training, which was decided by the Governor's Office of the Five Armies after the public discussion, but when he was in Beijing, Zhu Jinghong was only willing to take care of the northern four guards.

Slowly retracting his smile, Zhu Jinghong said calmly: "So...... As soon as I came, you asked me to make a tent, and that really made me a little uneasy! ”

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what Zhu Jinghong meant.

"In the face of Dzungaria this time, what is the combat readiness of the Beijing camp and what is the fighting spirit of the soldiers...... I can't see any of that! ”

Hearing Zhu Jinghong say this, the rest of the generals didn't notice the situation yet, but Hou Jing and Wang Jie in the tent had already guessed what he was going to do.

His eyes swept to the two commanders sitting in front, and Zhu Jinghong asked in a deep voice, "Two commanders...... Can I take a look at these? ”

"This ...... Of course you can! Chen Baoxiang replied, guessing in his heart what to think.

Another commander, Liu Xiongshan, also answered, and after receiving a positive reply from the two of them, Zhu Jinghong smiled again.

"That's good...... A moment later, the whole army lined up in the school field in a combat state! ”

"You can give orders!"

Ordering the whole army to assemble involves a very important matter, that is, the right to command the army, commonly known as the power of soldiers!

If it was Ning Huanxiang who came to order, of course it would be justified, but now it is Zhu Jinghong...... That's a little off.

Whether it is from the perspective of professional ethics or military rules, Chen Baoxiang and Liu Xiongshan should not move and explain the situation to Zhu Jinghong.

But in this way, it offended people a little, so both of them froze in place.

Several commanders under them also understood the key to this, and they also looked at each other one by one.

Seeing that everyone hesitated, Zhu Jinghong really realized that such a thing as military power was really not a joke.

Usually everyone is harmonious, but once it comes to the critical moment, it may not be what happens.

Even at this moment, Zhu Jinghong did not fail to feel that the old man was powerful, and once the army responded in a group, he got things done in a day or two.

After a few seconds of delay, the atmosphere in the military tent became more and more solemn, and Zhu Jinghong's eyes were already cold.

Just when Chen Baoxiang couldn't hold back and wanted to explain, he saw Wang Jie, who was sitting at the end, suddenly got up, looked at his boss and said, "Commander, your lordship...... If you don't give an order, it's too late! ”

Hou Jing also realized the problem, so he stood up and said, "Commander Liu...... There's not enough time, we can't delay any longer, let's give the order! ”

Hou Jing was born in the Xiuguo Mansion, and the Hou family is not only the ancestor of the country, but also the current emperor's Donghuamen hero, he can naturally be bolder than Wang Jie.

With his words, the situation changed from how to explain to Zhu Jinghong to whether to stop Hou Jing on the spot.

Seeing that Hou Jing got up to move, Liu Xiongshan wanted to get up to stop him, but in the end he just moved his mind, but his butt didn't even move.

"My lord, the Thirteenth Master wants to see our combat readiness, and our Jingying can't let him down!"

The one who spoke at this moment was Yang Renzhong, the commander of the Guoyong Left Guard, who was transferred to Jinling two years ago with Qiu Hong to suppress the Japanese.

During that time, he also beat Zhu Jinghong, and there was some friendship between the two.

His words, combined with the reaction of Hou Jing and Wang Jie in front of him, initially formed a momentum, as if he should listen to Zhu Jinghong's order.

So much so that Chen and Liu's two commanders felt that maybe they were too ignorant.

In addition, at this moment, they are under a high degree of pressure in their hearts, and it is not surprising that they have a heart of compromise.

"I'm still stunned what to do, don't hurry up and give the order!" Chen Baoxiang reprimanded angrily.

Hearing his words, all the generals present did not hesitate, got up and rushed out of the tent.

The gang was gone, and the few commanders who remained in the tent were even more embarrassed at the moment.

The process just now is long, but it takes less than ten seconds before and after, but in the middle is a real wrestling, so that both sides are concerned.

At this time, Zhu Jinghong couldn't help but be afraid, if Wang Jie and Hou Jing had not been arranged in advance, if he hadn't brought Yang Renzhong in Jinling before, he would probably have to go abroad today.

However, he finally won today's wrestling, so he had part of the military power from the psychology of the generals against the two guards in the Beijing camp.

In other words, if he gave the order in the future, the resistance he encountered would not be as strong as it is today.

Judging from Zhu Jinghong's thinking, his sudden visit today can toss the whole army like this, which is actually very "remarkable".

Another person, let alone the sixth child, even if the prince comes, I am afraid that he will not be able to command the army easily.

The drums of war were beating, and it was the most urgent assembly order, and the soldiers in the barracks had all put down the matter at hand, and they had already started preparing for battle as quickly as possible.

And when the generals returned to the camp, everyone knew that it was Zhu Jinghong who came to patrol the camp.

Again, if the soldier learns that some other messenger is coming to inspect and toss the big guy through this means, he will definitely complain in private.

However, after learning that it was Zhu Jinghong, everyone knew that he was an expert in marching and fighting, so he couldn't resent.

That's right, although Zhu Jinghong hasn't fought much, through the continuous packaging and development of the past two years, his famous general character has also taken shape.

Many things, staying in the circle in the capital, and the mainstream of public opinion in the imperial court and civil officials, made Zhu Jinghong's efforts ineffective.

And once he jumps out of that circle, he is in a state of excellence, and it is time for him to reap the loyalty.

When the soldiers were preparing quickly and rushing to the school field desperately, Zhu Jinghong also rushed to the school field slowly surrounded by a group of commanders.

The number of soldiers in the Beijing camp is generally about 5,000, of which there are three "capitals" each leading 1,500 people, and each has a staff general to command.

At this level of the guard, in addition to commanding the commander-in-chief of the whole army, there are also two commanders and two commanders, a total of five people, each performing their duties and commanding the battle.

In addition to being in charge of military law and military merits, they also served as the staff officers of the commanders.

So at this moment, the two commanders surrounded Zhu Jinghong, each expressing their views on the current battle situation.

Zhu Jinghong walked in front with his hands behind his back, nodding in response from time to time, which was full of the style of a big leader.

"Speaking of which, we still have to take the initiative to attack, and people in Dzungaria are not afraid to spend money with us!"

"With the arrival of Governor Ning this time, he will finally be able to gather forces from all sides to attack Dzungaria with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai, and it will be this year to quell this rebellion!"

Zhu Jinghong made a final summary and held Ning Huanxiang's hand by the way.

"By the way, the day after tomorrow, the Governor's Office is deliberating, have you all received the news?"

Outside the Yumen Pass, this is already considered to be on the front line, and of course Ning Huanxiang has to convene a military meeting.

One is to gather people's hearts, the second is to listen to opinions, and the third is to discuss countermeasures.

"The ministers have got the news!" The crowd replied.

Zhu Jinghong said with a smile: "Tell Governor Ning your insights when the time comes!" ”

When everyone spoke, they had already come to the school field, and at this moment there were already a large number of people lined up on the field.

The weapons and armor of the soldiers of the Beijing camp can be called the "Christmas tree" of this era, and it is definitely something coveted by foreigners.

Zhu Jinghong said that it would take a quarter of an hour to gather, and it was about the same time now, but there were still army soldiers on the field who had not yet arrived.

In this general environment, Hou Jing and Wang Jie, who have completed the queue, are particularly eye-catching at this moment.

Sitting on the chairs that had been set up on the high platform, Zhu Jinghong looked at the commanders in front of him and asked calmly: "Do you think that the faster the sergeants assemble, is it beneficial to the marching battle?" ”

The speed of assembly is fast, in fact, the army's ability to react quickly, and it is obvious whether it is beneficial or not.

All the commanders present had a deep understanding of the military reform presided over by Zhu Jinghong in the Beisiwei, and naturally understood his intention in asking this.

"It is extremely advantageous, and the so-called soldiers are ...... quickly"

When it comes to the theory of the art of war, none of the people present are bad, so they analyze it from all aspects.

This is not just a matter of slapping Zhu Jinghong's ass, so they are extraordinarily in-depth.

Looking at the sergeants who were still entering the queue in front of him, Zhu Jinghong said slowly: "In a quarter of an hour, the enemy cavalry can raid more than ten miles, and even the infantry army can charge a few miles, but our army has not yet completed the assembly, you can think about it more!" ”

"The effect that the North Four Guards have practiced now is that they can be assembled in half an hour and put into combat ......"

Even if everyone wanted to distinguish a few words, they could only shut up when they heard Zhu Jinghong's words, but the gap was too big.

"Okay, don't be frustrated, just train more in the future!"

"You need to know that now, the Holy Lord has the heart to reform the military system, and you are in a high position in the Beijing camp...... It is necessary to understand more holy will than ordinary people! ”

is to reason with facts, and to make a big banner with tiger skin, Zhu Jinghong's words before and after have built a high platform in the hearts of everyone.

The consequence of this is that not only is he superior, but he is also necessarily right.

Everyone put on a teachable posture, thanked Zhu Jinghong for his advice, and gradually reversed their views of him in their hearts.

After about a few minutes, the troops on the scene completed the assembly, and the school field was already full of slaughter.

According to Zhu Jinghong's estimate, it took about 20 minutes before and after.

It sounds a bit long, but this kind of thing depends on who it is compared to, in the current era, it is already a strong army, and the kind of North Four Guards seems to be different.

So at this time, Zhu Jinghong would not reprimand the soldiers of the Beijing camp, that would only make people think that he was annoying.

At this moment, after the two commanders gave in for a while, they saw Chen Baoxiang step forward and shouted: "Brothers, His Royal Highness King Xiang has been ordered to inspect and inspect our army's combat readiness today, and now I ask Your Highness to give instructions!" ”
