Like the new emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Ah Ra Zhiyuan has been bored recently, doing nothing, and only drinking in the camp every day to pass the time.

But after hearing that the Ming delegation had arrived, Ah Ra immediately came to the spirit and personally went out of the camp to greet him.

After Huang Pu and Ah Ra finished the ceremony, they entered the camp together, and passed the holy decree before they sat down as guests.

Ah Ra held the holy decree and read it carefully, and his heart was very happy: the new emperor actually gave him the title of a king, and also gave him the right to pay tribute, and he could independently send a delegation of 300 people to Beijing every year to pay tribute.

You must know that the title he obtained from the Ming Dynasty was only King Jingshun, and as for the title of King Huai that he usually used, he gave himself the title of it, and he couldn't count it.

So Ah Raping retreated from others and asked Huang Pu: "Your envoy, the first master is only the king of Jingshun, and the title of King Cheng given by the Son of Heaven makes me very uneasy." ”

Huang Pu said with a smile: "Now that the war is imminent, even if you accept the title of the new monarch of the Ming Dynasty, the first master will not come to attack you." ”

Ah Ra asked helplessly: "Yes, your envoy is right, and now he can't spare his hands to clean me up." But what about after the war, what will I do then? ”

Huang Pu smiled and waved his hand: "When the time comes, I will be severely injured by the army led by my Ming Xinjun, and my vitality will be greatly damaged, how can I still have the ability to deal with the Zhiyuan." ”

Ara, shaking her head, put disbelief on her face.

Huang Pu explained: "Our new monarch knows that you are unwilling to go to war with the Ming Dynasty, and also knows that you and Tokhoff do not sweat profusely, as the second and third real power figures of Meng Yuan, they also don't want to see them sit down first."

I, Emperor Ming, plan to kill Ye Xian, replace you and take over the position of the leader of Wara and the Taishi of Meng Yuan.

If you want to, we'll talk, if you don't, forget it. The emperor also canonized Boyan Timur as the loyal king, the holy decree is in my hands, you are not willing to be the master of Mengyuan, I can only go to Boyan Timur to talk. ”

"Don't don't, don't worry, I'm willing to talk. Dare to ask what the Ming Emperor needs me to do? ”

Huang Pu replied: "First, you need to recognize Xinjun as the only son of heaven in the Ming Dynasty; Second, in this war, your headquarters can only operate on the front line from Xuanfu to Juyongguan, and cannot cross Xuanfu to support Yexian's army. Third, I, Da Ming, am responsible for attacking and killing the main force first, and after the first is weakened, you need to cooperate with us to completely eliminate the first together. ”

Ah Ra nodded: "I can accept the conditions that your envoy said, but I don't believe that Da Ming can destroy the main force first." I believe that Daming can hold the capital, but I don't believe that Daming can inflict heavy losses in this war. ”

Huang Pu replied: "The emperor has long considered this problem, so the mission sent by a hundred Mongolian dignitaries who were attached to the Ming Dynasty was accompanied by him.

You can send your closest henchmen to Beijing as secret envoys to Beijing to watch the battle. Then let the envoy come back and report back to you in detail.

The emperor said, if we can't perform well in the Ming army, and we can't beat it first, then you can do whatever you want.

If our Ming army is heavily defeated, you will act according to the secret agreement we have agreed on now.

No matter what the battle is like, you can advance or retreat with ease. You see, our emperor is caring. ”

Hearing this, Ah Ra nodded again and again, this is very good, anyway, no matter what, he can't suffer a loss.

So Ah Ra asked the question he wanted to know the most: "Dare to ask your envoy, what is the ultimate goal of the new emperor of the Ming Dynasty?" If the Ming Dynasty can really be destroyed, how will it treat Mongolia later? ”

Huang Pu did not hide it, and directly told Ah Ra the truth: "My Emperor Ming will follow the story of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, personally serve as the Heavenly Khan, and become the nominal master of Mongolia."

The Mongolian steppe was divided into multiple tribes such as Warat, Tatar, and Duoyan, and each tribe had a prince as its leader.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty will build the Great Wall to completely separate your tribes, so that you cannot form a single entity. ”

After hearing this, Ah Ra's jaw almost dropped in shock.

Huang Pu continued to add: "This is all the emperor's plan, our Ming country is strong, there is no need to lie to you." If you swear allegiance to the Emperor and attack first, the Emperor can provide you with excellent equipment and arm 30,000 cavalry. and promise you to be the chief of Warat for the rest of your life. ”

"But our Mongol Great Khan has always been only served by the descendants of the Golden Family. The emperor is a Han Chinese, how can he also serve as a Mongolian khan? ”

Huang Pu said with a smile: "Since the emperor dares to say it, he is sure that it will be done, and this is not something you have to worry about." ”

"Then after I become the leader of Warat, can I pass on the throne to my children and grandchildren?"

Huang Pu shook his head: "Before leaving Beijing, the emperor specially explained this problem: now the emperor can only promise to let you rule Warat for life, as for whether it can be hereditary, you need to negotiate separately in the future."

The emperor is a person who attaches great importance to credit, and he will promise you as much as possible. If you can't promise, you won't be deceived with lies.

I have told you everything clearly, whether you want to form an alliance with the emperor or not, you can weigh it yourself. ”

In the end, the Arazhiyuan thought twice and decided to accept the invitation of the Ming Emperor. After all, if you don't accept the olive branch of the Ming Emperor, you will have to be trampled under your feet forever, and you won't be able to come out until you die.

Instead of being subservient for the rest of your life, it's better to take a gamble and give it a try.

So Huang Pu agreed on a specific battle plan with Ah Ra, and then continued to set off, rushing to the station of the Yexian army without stopping.

……

said that Zhu Qiyu stayed in the West Flower Hall all morning, and it was easy to stay up until noon, and when he was about to go back to eat, the ministers suddenly came to ask for a meeting.

Zhu Qiyu had no choice but to summon everyone in. This time, not only the cabinet and Yu Qian came, but even Jin Ying and Xing'an, who have never shown up much, came.

Seeing these two chief eunuchs of the ceremonial eunuch, Zhu Qiyu was obviously a little unhappy, didn't he tell you not to come. Anyway, everyone is tired of seeing each other, so why do you bother to find everyone unhappy.

So Zhu Qiyu had a cold face and didn't speak.

In the end, Hu Hu had no choice but to speak first: "Your Majesty, because the imperial court has set up propaganda points in various streets and squares in the capital, the capital has been in an uproar recently, and the people are also talking about the government and politics.

The ministers thought that the content of the preaching could not be restrained a little, so as not to cause unnecessary panic. ”

Zhu Qiyu knew that Hu Hu was referring to the fact that the Empress Dowager sent eight carts of treasures to Wara, but he did not intend to compromise at all: "According to my thoughts, compared with empty words and lies that whitewash the peace, the common people want to hear the real truth.

If they know the true situation, or if they are really afraid of the Warat army, they can move south with their families and flee together. If you don't believe in the imperial court, leave quickly, let those who believe in the imperial court stay, and I will take them to build a view of Beijing together. ”

After that, Zhu Qiyu turned his head to He Yi and ordered: "Yes, yes, yes, even what I just said, you will also let people preach righteousness: If you are cowardly and afraid of the enemy, please leave Beijing quickly." Bloody righteous people, please stay, I will take them to build a temple together. Even if everyone escapes, and I am the only one left, I will stay and live and die with the society. ”

Hu Hu watched himself being pushed back, but he was helpless. Recently, the two virgins, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Empress Yisheng, have privately looted the treasures of the eight carts and bribed Wara, which has spread all over the capital.

Although the people of the capital did not dare to publicly accuse, they had accumulated a lot of contempt and resentment in their hearts. Hu Hu had only walked around the street twice, and he had already felt the oppressive atmosphere.

If things are allowed to develop, the reputation of the Queen Mother will be ruined.

But what the emperor propagated was all the truth, and he didn't wronged anyone. Hu Hu also had no way to resolutely oppose it, and most importantly, Chen Xun, Wang Wen and Yu Qian firmly supported the emperor, which made Hu Hu feel powerless many times.

Seeing that Hu Hu's face was ugly and he was silent, Zhu Qiyu turned around and took out two notebooks from the cabinet, and said to Chen Xun and others: "I see two notebooks here, one is Ruan Zongqi of the Honglu Temple General Affairs Prelude, who wrote a letter requesting the military department to make a list, recruit Jiaozhi to return to the local officials, etc., and form a team with them, practice guns and crossbows, and kill thieves together.

These Jiaozhi Guishun Tuguan, on the contrary, are more loyal and patriotic than our local people in the Ming Dynasty, and this is the second time I have seen Jiaozhi Guishun Tuguan Shangben, asking to go into battle to kill the enemy.

Yu Shangshu, according to Ruan Zongqi's statement, was sent out by the Ministry of War, and the Jiaozhi Guishun local officials who were willing to serve the imperial court were all assigned to the Wuxiang Left Guard and were uniformly dispatched by the Imperial Horse Supervisor. ”

Yu Qian could see that the emperor had always been very attentive to the people who had something to do with Jiaozhi. In addition to the Ruan Zongqi mentioned today, and Chen Fuzong, who was going to ride an elephant to participate in the war before, there are also the new military squire Luo Tong and Chengshan Marquis Wang Tong. These people are either Jiaozhi people, or they have led troops to fight in Jiaozhi.

The emperor wants to fight for Jiaozhi, and it is not just talking. With such an ambitious martial emperor, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.
