"What else is there to argue about? The north has just experienced a white disaster. If you dare to invade the border without recuperating, it is the way to seek death. Capture that khan of theirs, take him to the capital, and let him be sacrificed in Fengtian Palace.
dance!"
"You're talking lightly. The grassland experienced the White Disaster. Last year, our three provinces of the Ming Dynasty were not affected by the disaster. How much food and grass would it cost to capture Wang Xian as a prisoner in the Changqi Grassland, and how many lives of soldiers would it cost?"
"War is not a business deal. How can there be so many easy calculations? The Tatars are all wolves. If you don't beat them hard, you are afraid of killing them. If they come over every now and then and bite you a few times, how can you still live like this?"
"A common man is good at fighting, but he harms the country and the people!"
"You useless and stinking scholar, without my hard work, you couldn't even take a bite of hot shit in troubled times, how could you be able to speak nonsense in the court today?"
"Vulgarity and vulgarity are different from animals?"
"Damn it, I think your skin is itchy!"
This is different from the original government affairs. Generals Wu Xun actively participated in it, which made the situation a bit chaotic. The more noisy, the more it went sideways, and it was about to take action.
Zhu Biao couldn't help but cough a few times. Chang Yuchun, who was standing at the front of the queue alongside Hu Weiyong, looked back slightly. Wu Xun, the loudest one who was jumping and shouting, seemed to have been strangled by the neck and slumped.
Although Chang Yuchun had just returned to the capital to take charge of the capital camp, the majority of the generals in the capital camp were from the Chang family, so there was no need for excessive training or the need to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.
The officials who quarreled with those Wu Xun also gave up as soon as they got along. After all, these guys were so energetic that they dared to risk their lives. When the time came, they would be ruined and it would be disgraceful.
But they didn't thank Chang Yuchun too much. It was not a good thing for Wu Xun to have an end. It turned out that King Zhongshan was there. Although King Zhongshan was a Wu Xun, he was unreasonable and would not protect his subordinates.
But this person has never been unreasonable, and the reason for stopping him just now was probably for no other reason than that he was worried about His Highness' health and didn't want them to disturb the Crown Prince.
Hu Weiyong didn't speak or look back, but his heart sank. The king of Zhongshan was wise and wise in protecting himself and knew the way of advance and retreat. When he was in Beijing, he always only did what he was responsible for. He did not see any generals with military honors on weekdays.
However, during the period when King Kaiping returned to Beijing, although he did not take the initiative to entertain guests and friends, he did not refuse the subordinates who came to visit him, and he was still as generous as before.
This will inevitably lead to the warriors only following King Kaiping's lead. It will also inevitably lead to the warriors turning to Chang Yuchun if their orders are inconsistent with each other. This is the reduction of the power in their hands.
But there was nothing he could do. The decree to bring Chang Yuchun back was from the Holy One, and his opinion was not asked at all. And Chang Yuchun's qualifications and influence among the Huaixi nobles were not something that he, a rising star, could do.
Than.
It's not just Wu Xun's problem. With Chang Yuchun here, it will be difficult for him to place and support some party members in the Beijing camp. Among these princes, the last thing he wants is for Chang Yuchun to take charge of the Beijing camp. Everyone else has discussed it.
Only this one didn't, and didn't even bother to discuss and compromise.
The only people in this world who can make him regress are the Holy Emperor and the Crown Prince. The rest of the people are hard to look at him in the eyes. Even though he is unknown, they dare to claim that he can march an army of 100,000 men across the world. Their arrogance is soaring to the sky.
There was a sudden silence in the hall, and the imperial censors all frowned. Some civil servants who were not from Huaixi also looked at Chang Yuchun's back with fear. This man is so powerful that he is now in charge of the capital camp. It is probably not the blessing of Jiangshan Sheji.
If you are not careful, it will be a disaster for your relatives.
Many of them have made up their mind to give a secret report when they return. Although they say that they will not alienate relatives and seek respect, but as a minister, how can they avoid violence and cherish their own bodies, and ignore the hidden dangers of the country and the dynasty?
Zhu Biao was also a little surprised, but he didn't think anything of it. Transferring Chang Yuchun back was a decision made by the father and son after several years of consideration and observation.
As his father-in-law, he has the ambition to unite the army and defeat enemies and become famous in history, but he has no ambition to usurp the throne and become emperor. Everything he has now makes him very satisfied, especially the existence of his daughter and grandson, which makes him the most hopeful.
The person who maintains order.
Chang Yuchun is not stupid. Leading troops to fight is not a simple matter. Any general who can lead an army is definitely not stupid. He may be deficient in some aspects. His EQ may not be high, but his IQ is definitely not low.
.
Just like Lan Yu, no one dares to say that he is stupid. The most they can say is that he is unruly and unruly. Historically, this was not the reason for his death. It was just because of bad luck that Zhu Biao left early.
If Zhu Biao leaves early, then it doesn't matter whether you are loyal, gentle or rebellious. What matters is whether you have the strength to cause trouble. If you do, your death will not be unjust.
"Zhao Aiqing, are all the grain stores in the large warehouses in Beijing and Zhouzhou complete?"
Zhao Wenjing, who looked a little tired, came out and said: "Wei Chen personally went to inspect the three large warehouses last night. The grain storage is complete. Only the grain storage of more than a thousand stones in several grain cellars was affected by moisture due to poor preservation. I will punish the officials in charge."
"Very good, Zhao Aiqing, thank you for your hard work."
I have grain in hand and I don’t feel panic. The warehouse is fully stocked. Firstly, it relies on the imperial court to purge the officials, and secondly, it relies on the good supervision of the Minister of Household Affairs. If it were originally such a sudden warehouse inspection and grain adjustment, it would be strange if there was no fire.
.
"What do the Governor-General of the Ministry of War think?"
The Minister of War and Chang Yuchun took turns speaking, and the central idea was just one word, fight!
The court meeting is a place to unify thoughts and arguments. Naturally, it is impossible to just listen to one party. You have to give people the right to speak. Otherwise, it would be better to go to the court to do more and just give the order directly.
After Zhu Biao's roll call, various ministers and censors of the Zhongshu Province also spoke in turn. Not all of them were stubbornly opposed to the war. There were also many officials who supported a wave of defense and then sent troops to sweep the grasslands.
They believed that it would be difficult for the Ming Dynasty to provide logistics for a war, let alone the grasslands, and it would be a bad idea to rush to a decisive battle with Mongolia. This is exactly what they think, they should defend first and then attack, and wait until they are exhausted and then weaken.
The best strategy is to overcome the enemy's exhaustion and my surplus.
Just at this moment, there was another voice outside the palace door, which was about the urgent military situation in Liaodong. Several sensitive people suddenly looked ugly. There would definitely be no good news at this time.
" pass."
A dusty figure walked in quickly, accompanied by two military guards. After saluting, he untied the secret report from behind and presented it. Liu Jin walked down and took it for inspection before sending it to Zhu Biao.
"Take it down and rest."
"Thank you, His Royal Highness."
Zhu Biao took the envelope and did not open it in a hurry. Instead, he looked at the ministers below and said: "I guess it should be the Mongolian Uliangha Tribe, Ongniute Tribe, Uqiyete Tribe and Zhala Yi'er Tribe in Liaodong."
There have been changes with the Jianzhou Jurchens and Haixi Jurchens."
"No wonder the Wala Tatars dared to invade the border. It turned out that they had united all the ministries in Liaodong."
"It's not surprising that all the sons of Nahachu have entered the capital camp. The Mongolian Jurchen tribe in Liaodong was afraid of being sold by Nahachu directly."
"It's just a bunch of people who don't have enough to eat, so we just happened to kill them all together!"
"Your Majesty, please give an order. General Quan Mo will lead one hundred thousand troops from the capital camp to suppress it. We will not turn back until the enemy is defeated!"
"Your Highness, at the end of the day, 80,000 yuan will be enough. We should use the head of all thieves to build a palace in the capital to overwhelm Liaodong!"
Zhu Biao, who was looking at the angry crowd of warriors, smiled with satisfaction. No matter what the news was, he must have this momentum.
The courier opened the envelope and scanned it. As expected, he handed it back to Liu Jin and said, "Let me show it to you all."
Liu Jin bowed and took it. In fact, from the moment he came up, his waist has not been straightened. Only one person can sit on this Dan Majesty, and only one person can stand.
After Liu Jin went around from the side, his hands were shaking slightly. Should he show this letter to the Prime Minister first or to King Kaiping first?
My Lords...
Liu Jin walked to Hu Weiyong and stopped: "Please take a look at it, Mr. Hu."
Hu Weiyong raised his head and glanced at the somewhat pale prince first, and then said to Liu Jin: "I'm not good at military affairs, so I'd better ask King Kaiping to see him first."
As soon as this statement came out, there was a lot of discussion immediately. These things may seem trivial, but their meaning is not small. Who is the leader of the ministers?
