216 The monarch and the ministers were bent on scheming, and they also laid out Datong and sluggish Warat

After bathing, eating, and sleeping peacefully for more than an hour with the flawless jade body of the pretty woman, Zhu Qiyu came to the West Flower Hall leisurely and summoned the important ministers who had been waiting for a long time.

The state of these ministers is also a bit strange: they are all decades older, and they have stayed up all night, and their faces are obviously tired.

But through their eyes, it is easy to see the excitement and excitement in their hearts.

However, it is also understandable that if you want to talk about the change of Tumubao, it is the people in front of you who objectively benefit the most.

Several ministers and Shangshu died in the civil fort, freeing up a lot of vacant seats. Immediately afterwards, Zhu Qiyu sent Hu Hui, Wang Zhi, and Yu Qian to Beijing, and vacated several positions.

As a result, the ministers in front of them, who had to endure many years of seniority, directly ascended to the position.

However, these are all objective facts, and Zhu Qiyu also believes that subjectively, these ministers have no ability and motivation to operate the change in the civil fort.

Even if it really wants to operate, it can only be operated by the military department and the border generals, and these people in front of them were all pure civilian officials before, and if they are asked to operate, they can't operate.

The emperor is watching the ministers, and the ministers are watching the emperor. I saw that Zhu Qiyu was dressed more simply than when he was in Fengtian Palace, this time he didn't even have a white jade crown on his head, but he was wearing a plain white robe embroidered with a few plum blossoms, and a jasper pendant around his waist.

The face is neither arrogant nor frivolous, and the face is demure and indifferent. It was as if what the Ming army had achieved was nothing more than an ordinary victory.

These old foxes who have been in the officialdom for a long time also have to admire the emperor's calm heart, not to mention a young man who is only in his early twenties and has been lucky to get the throne, even if he is a wise and martial Emperor Taizong, I am afraid he will be overjoyed when he encounters such a big victory.

Looking at the emperor's eyes again, he also stayed up all night, but he was still radiant and bright, and he didn't feel tired at all.

The ministers couldn't help but wonder, did Da Ming really usher in a Zhongxing Holy Lord?

Zhu Qiyu didn't think about so many things about Zhongxing Daming, but he just felt that the ancients made characters exquisitely. Especially the word 'wonderful' is really wonderful.

One 'less' and one 'female' are combined to be 'wonderful'.

In practice, his little princess, who was only fourteen and a half years old, used her tender and charming body and affectionate gentleness to completely wash away the fatigue and anxiety of her whole body in just one hour.

Zhu Qiyu only feels that life is really beautiful now, and life is really rushing.

Once you're comfortable, start drawing new flatbread for your men.

So Zhu Qiyu smiled at Chen Xun and others: "Although this victory is very happy and sweeps away the previous haze, everyone should not relax."

also first with Boyan Timur's soldiers and horses in the Ming Dynasty, plus the soldiers and horses they left behind in the Warat headquarters, there are about 80,000 in total.

If this war ends like this, it will soon be able to regroup first, and then launch an endless intrusion on the border of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, we must take advantage of the victory and pursue it, and at least kill another 40,000 people. Let his direct subordinate soldiers and horses come below 50,000, so that the situation in northern Xinjiang can be controlled. ”

When Chen Xun, Wang Wen and others heard this, they glanced at each other, and then immediately expressed their support.

Especially Chen Xun and Wang Wen, they have already arrived here, and there is definitely no way back if they want to go back. can only follow Xinjun to the black, the more outstanding the Xinjun's achievements, the more stable the status of Chen Xun, Wang Wen and other Xinjun's cronies.

Zhu Qiyu gestured with his hand: "We sent out 200,000 troops, and Totobu and Arazhiyuan each sent 30,000 troops, a total of 260,000 troops.

It is divided into three routes: east, west and middle, with an average of 80,000 or 90,000 troops per road.

In each army, about 40,000 soldiers were responsible for killing the enemy, and about 50,000 auxiliaries were responsible for transporting grain, grass, and baggage.

The next battle was more about money and food. To support an army of this size, the logistical pressure is considerable.

This time, we are going to rely on the strong national strength to push the warat. So what really decides this big victory or defeat is all the Aiqing here. ”

When Chen Xun heard this, he asked curiously, "How long does Your Majesty plan to fight this battle?" ”

"The soldiers are fast, we must take advantage of the opportunity that we have not returned to the grassland first, and the dragons of the Warat headquarters have no leader, and we will quickly solve the battle and launch a surprise attack.

End the war in a month, and then spend a month reorganizing the troops.

During the Zhengdan Dynasty Meeting, I wanted to summon princes, county kings, and ministers from all over the country to Beijing, hold a grander court meeting, concentrate on canonizing honorable nobles, promoting ministers, and announcing a series of edicts.

All of you here have contributed to the country, and I will never hesitate to take the position of cabinet bachelor, three princes and three orphans. ”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly thanked them. The emperor did not hesitate to reward him, and the ministers were naturally energetic.

Chen Xun said on behalf of everyone: "Your Majesty, although rest assured, if the army goes out to work overtime, there will only be two months in total, and the grain and grass hoarded in the capital will be enough to support it."

Although the allocation of grain and grass is very complicated, as long as the monarch and the ministers work together and manage it carefully, they will definitely ensure that the army has no worries. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded with satisfaction, and this is what he wanted. As long as there are no logistical problems, I am fully confident that I will win another big victory.

At this time, several favorite concubines pushed open the door and walked in with food boxes.

Zhu Qiyu smiled at the ministers: "All Aiqing was also tired yesterday, I ordered the concubines to boil some ginseng soup and make some snacks, everyone will make up for it first, and then let's make a detailed plan together." ”

When the ministers heard this, they hurriedly stood up and wanted to kneel and salute the imperial concubines.

Zhu Qiyu hurriedly waved his hand to stop: "No need, no need, you are all pillars of the imperial court, and you are the heroes of the Ming Dynasty." They are all innocent little girls, and we are in our own home, so we don't have to fix these false etiquette. ”

When the ministers heard this, they no longer insisted, but they just made a mockery. The concubines also bowed in unison, and then handed the ginseng soup to the ministers one by one.

Zhu Qiyu named and let Dui Yu and Ning Xiang stay on the left and right to serve, and the other favorite concubines did not stay much, and withdrew from the West Flower Hall in turn.

Junchen leisurely drank ginseng soup and ate dim sum, and there were two more little girls in the hall, and the atmosphere was a lot more relaxed.

Zhu Qiyu leaned on the soft couch, letting the two little best stunners pinch his shoulders and beat his legs, while pulling some homely things with the ministers.

The ministers are not surprised, to say that in the entire history, there are no palace maids and eunuchs around, and all life depends on the service of the favored concubines, this Jingtai Emperor should be regarded as the only one.

The two little girls in front of them are not so delicate that they are nominally imperial concubines, but they are doing the work of a little girl. The ministers couldn't help but feel uneasy in their hearts.

But this is the reason why Zhu Qiyu especially dotes on the two little girls around her, and her favorite concubines put their bodies very low. And the incense and twilight rain in front of him give themselves a low position, and they are the best among all the favorite concubines.

Although Zhu Qiyu is usually just joking, the two girls Ning Xiang and Du Yu really regard themselves as little sex slaves, and they don't need to be trained, so they are low and small, and they are obedient.

Taking advantage of the efforts of enjoying the service of the beauties, Zhu Qiyu instructed the cabinet on several small matters: "The Zhengdan Dynasty not only ordered all the princes and county kings to enter Beijing to participate, but also the civil and military generals of the provinces above the fifth rank should also enter Beijing to congratulate."

However, the officials in Shanxi are not used, and I don't want to see them. Places that are too remote, or where there are wars, are not used.

For example, Guangdong, Huguang, Fujian, and other provinces where rebellions have occurred one after another. There are also those in Yunnan and Guizhou that are too far away, and they will not be used, so your cabinet will consider it. ”

After that, Zhu Qiyu immediately added: "Wang Zhi and Yu Qian won't use it, let them run errands in Shanxi with peace of mind." In addition, after the king of Dongwu and Xiwu arrived in Beijing, they should be received with a higher standard than the prince. I will personally go out twenty miles of the city to meet him. ”

Don't let Wang Zhi and Yu Qian come back, the ministers have no opinion, it's best not to come back Hu Hu, no one in the important ministers likes the three of them.

As for the Jianshu people and the Wushu people, the emperor released them and named them the king of the county, even if they had to be received beyond the specifications, which is unusual. Obviously, the emperor is going to do ridiculous things again.

But the current court officials are not the same as before.

With the prestige that was established first to defend the capital and hit hard, the emperor said whatever he wanted, as long as it did not touch the ministers' own interests, the ministers did not have much incentive to oppose it.

In the past, there were Hu Hui, Wang Zhi, and Yu Qian, who were not all the way to the emperor. The current important ministers of the court are either cronies of the emperor or promoted by the emperor exceptionally, and they are generally looking forward to the emperor's goodness, and no one wants to be loyal to the emperor.

Seeing that no one objected, Zhu Qiyu continued: "The cabinet sent a decree to Wang Zhi and ordered him to try to rescue the Emperor Taishang from the date the decree arrived. Even if the emperor could not be rescued, he would drag the army of Boyan Timur in Datong for at least ten days, waiting for the imperial army to arrive.

It is possible to supply military rations to the army of Boyan Timur, but it must be supplied once a day, so that the army of Boyan only has enough food in their hands for one day, and there is no way to pull back Warat.

At the same time, once the first defeated army reached Datong to join up with Boyan Timur, it immediately cut off the supply of grain and grass to the Warat army.

If the Warat army finally got enough grain and grass from Datong to support it to return to the Warat headquarters, Wang Zhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu, Liu An, the general soldier of Datong, Liu An, the deputy commander of Datong, and Guo Deng, the deputy commander of Datong, will be killed. He had no family property, and his wife was exiled for 3,000 miles. ”

Zhu Qiyu's attitude has become tougher, although he knows that Wang Zhi and Liu An are the cronies of the emperor, but as long as they dare to collaborate with the enemy, they will not be forgiven, even if they are the secretary of the ministry.
