What Yang Jie did on the grassland was, to put it bluntly, nothing more than sowing discord.

However, many times, the simpler the strategy, the more effective it is.

From bewitching Aga Dorji to instigating the Bo Lai, Maoli children, what Yang Jie grasped is nothing more than the weakness of human nature.

Again, everything he did was to disrupt the situation on the grassland.

After grasping this point, and looking back at what Yang Jie did, everything will become clear.

Similarly, using this as a starting point, we can also deduce Yang Jie's next goal...

"First too!"

Before the emperor could answer, Yang Hong spoke with determination.

These two simple words made everyone present take a breath of cold air.

They all turned their attention to the emperor, who nodded slightly in recognition.

As a result, all the ministers present could not help but swallow their saliva.

This young master of the Yang family really dares to think and do...

This secret planning operation was extremely daring. It would be no exaggeration to say that it was like dancing on the tip of a knife.

You must know that in this entire operation, Yang Jie was involved in one link after another, among the Agadoerji, Kalaqin Tribe, Wengliguote Tribe, and Tumote Tribe.

Not only must we ensure that they can be persuaded to cooperate with us, but more importantly, we must ensure that all four parties are unaware of each other's little moves.

Moreover, it is necessary to control the timing of actions of all parties so that everyone can act according to the plan designed by Yang Jie.

This point is very important, but it is extremely difficult!

You must know that the tribes on the grassland may not have the experience accumulation brought by the long history of the Central Plains, but they are the masters of that land, and in the harsh environment, all those who are not strong enough or only act recklessly will have long been

It's already dead and can't die anymore.

For those who can stay and successfully become the leader of the tribe, in addition to bravery, treachery is an essential quality.

It is definitely not easy to deceive them!

If anything goes wrong in all Yang Jie's plans, such as several tribes communicating with each other, or someone taking action in advance, his life will immediately be in danger.

If you want to do all this, you must deal with all parties. At the same time, the most important point is to make all parties feel that Yang Jie is one of their own.

This kind of difficulty...

Anyway, all the elders present felt ashamed of themselves!

Yes, at this time, some of them who usually knew a lot about the anecdotes in Beijing suddenly remembered it.

Long before Yang Hong returned to Beijing, this young master of the Yang family had a very good reputation in Beijing.

Whether he is a Confucian scholar or a noble's son, he can eat well. Although his health is not good, there are quite a few among the younger generation in the capital who have a good relationship with him.

Now it seems that the communication in Beijing is just a small fight. This grassland is his real world...

It is said that a son is better than his father. What's more, Yang Hong has been stationed at the border for many years. No one in the court has a deeper understanding of the grassland situation than him.

Adding the two together, after calming down, Yang Hong naturally quickly deduced Yang Jie's next plan.

"According to what Yang Jie said in his secret book, Tatar chaos has arisen. Tuotuobuhua and Agadoerji have died one after another. The Kalaqin tribe, the Wengliguot tribe, and the Chahar tribe have each established a golden family.

His descendant became the new khan, but at the same time he proclaimed himself the grand master. He obviously wanted to go back to the path of Tuohuan."

"The remaining Ordos and Asu tribes have successively launched troops to attack the Gorros and Chahar tribes, probably in order to annex each other and increase their strength in the name of revenge for their old masters."

"Under this situation, all the Tatar tribes have their own evil intentions, and the trend of disintegration has appeared. If the melee begins, it will be difficult to end. Without the suppression of Totuo Buhua, who is even the nominal co-owner of the grassland."

"In the long years of war, the various tribes will not only suffer a large reduction in personnel, but also continue to accumulate hatred, and eventually form a deadly feud between tribes. As a result, the strength of the Tatars will inevitably be greatly weakened. Within a hundred years, it will be difficult to regain power.

It threatens my Ming Dynasty."

"but……"

Today's Yang Hong is very different from when he first returned to the capital. Before returning to the capital, he was still a general who fought on many battlefields. However, in the past two years since returning to the capital, he has become seriously ill, aged rapidly, and his body has also changed.

Must be a little rickety.

In addition, he has always been in the habit of reading. If you ignore the unicorn scarlet robe he is wearing and stand among the civil servants, you may not be able to recognize that he is a veteran who is galloping on the battlefield.

But even so, his experience is still there!

After temporarily putting aside his worries about Yang Jie, Yang Hong quickly sorted out the current situation in the grassland.

It should be said that the Tatar civil strife was a good thing for the Ming Dynasty, but at this moment, Yang Hong's face did not look happy at all.

Frowning tightly, Yang Hong continued to speak.

"The weakening of strength is relative!"

"The Tatar civil strife will certainly pose no threat to our Ming Dynasty, but the greatest benefit is to Oara!"

"As soon as Totuobuhua and Agadorji die, the war between Tatar and Oara will definitely come to an end. Even with Yexian's character, he will definitely take this opportunity to launch a counterattack."

"From this perspective, everything is not over yet!"

Yang Hong's voice was heavy and full of worry.

But this kind of worry is obviously not the kind of worry about Yang Jie's safety just now.

His words instantly reminded everyone present.

You must know that the one who faced the Tatars head-on was always Wala who led the way first.

The civil strife in the Tatars, especially during the war with Oara, was not a god-given opportunity for Ye Xian, who had been plotting to become the Khan.

In the past, the reason why the Tatars were able to be controlled by Totuobuhua was, on the one hand, because he was a direct descendant of the Golden Family and the co-owner of the grassland. On the other hand, he did not want to be opposed and surrendered first.

Nowadays, the Tatar tribes are attacking each other and are no longer in a confrontation. When facing the Oara, they will definitely be weak. Once they take advantage of the weakness and defeat them one by one, even if they only annex half of the Tatar tribes, it will be enough for him to recover.

To the level before Bauhinia Pass.

A victorious war has always been the best opportunity for the grassland tribes to become stronger!

At this thought, the expressions of the ministers present became heavy, and even vaguely, their eyes looking at Yang Hong were somewhat complicated...

Seeing this situation, Zhu Qiyu's eyes darkened at the same time.

However, he was not facing Yang Hong, but the ministers below!

"The expressions on your faces at this moment remind me of someone..."

The emperor's voice rang in his ears, and the officials present immediately noticed something was wrong.

This calmness that was about to come suddenly made everyone tighten their heartstrings. For a moment, their minds began to spin rapidly, wondering how they had displeased the emperor.

You know, you can count on one hand the number of times this kind of tone that sounded like a coming storm has appeared since the emperor ascended the throne.

Whenever this situation occurs, no matter how indifferent the emperor appears, the anger accumulated behind him is enough to make the entire court tremble.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became depressing. After a while, Fan Guang, who was belatedly aware of the situation, had the courage to ask.

"May I ask who your Majesty is talking about?"

"Yue Wumu!"

Zhu Qiyu's tone was still calm.

However, as soon as the name was said, a trace of cold sweat broke out on the faces of everyone present.

Except for Yang Hong, even the dullest Fan Guang was so frightened that he immediately knelt down.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

However, this sentence not only failed to calm the anger, but was like a valve, allowing the emperor's anger to pour out instantly.

The imperial case shook slightly and made a crisp sound, and the emperor rarely slapped the table!

"What can I do to appease my anger?"

"In my opinion, this Yang Jie acted recklessly, disrupted the confrontation between Oara and Tatar, and gave Oara an opportunity to take advantage of it."

"Using a trick to deceive Tuotuo Buhua, who had already reached a peace agreement with the Ming Dynasty, to be attacked and killed by his subordinates, is against the way of a saint and disrespects the dignity of the Ming Dynasty."

"Being bold, disobeying the Holy Orders, and being self-righteous has caused the Ming Dynasty and the grassland tribes to turn against each other. It is more likely that Wala will regain his strength and plot against the Ming Dynasty."

"For such a sinner, I should issue thirteen edicts in a row, calling him back to the capital immediately, and then order the imperial guards to imprison him in order to set the record straight."

"If necessary, we should also give up the title of the Yang family so that we can make amends to Tatar Wala, let them cease their activities and resume good relations with the Ming Dynasty."

"right?"

The emperor said these words in a calm tone, even a little softly. If it weren't for the cold words at the end, it would almost seem like he was really questioning Yang Jie.

However, the more this happened, the more frightened the ministers present felt.

Their hunch was indeed right. Every time the emperor spoke in the tone just now, a violent storm would surely follow.

These words are very serious!

The emperor compared Yang Jie to Yue Fei, implying that he had made great achievements like Yue Fei during his trip.

So, how will the court treat him?
To be continued...
