Of course, the discussion of the outside world will affect Gao Pragmatism. If it's just "Shilin Qing Discussion", it doesn't matter, Gao Pragmatic is now in a high position, of course, you can pretend not to know, but at the moment, not only "Shilin" has a Qing Discussion, but also there are officials who are negligent in discussing things, thinking that it is impossible to open a precedent for Rong Zheng Shilang to concurrently serve as the economic strategy of other towns.

This is not allowed to be pragmatic and not react, so he also resigned according to the usual practice. One, two, three.

Three resignations are not enough.

The play has to be performed in a full set, so the next thing is "to be stunned, to make a decree and to be responsible, to say: Qing has three words and clear aspirations, if I resign, although I am ill, I will personally go to the Qing Mansion and follow the story of Wuhou." ”

So Gao Pragmatic "didn't dare to resign" - the emperor said, you have already resigned three times, if you resign, although I have a foot disease that has not been cured, I will personally come to visit the thatched house. The implication is that now it depends on whether you, as a courtier, dare to work and come in person.

Of course, he "didn't dare", so Gao Pragmatic had to "reluctantly" slack the order on the ground, indicating that he would take office as the governor of the Seven Towns. Then, as if he had written it for some people, he said that he would be cautious in his words and deeds after taking office, and that he would report in detail to the court and the emperor in detail on every move, and that he would never be good at advocating anything when he encountered major events.

However, although the emperor was happy to express his satisfaction with Gao Shishi's willingness to accept the order, he also "criticized" him, and the meaning of the holy decree is probably that the reason why the scripture strategy is the scripture strategy is that it is the sole responsibility and the power to take charge of the matter, if you report everything, then what do I want you to do? You must not live up to my expectations, give full play to your talents, and manage the military affairs of the Seven Towns properly.

Because Gao Pragmatic once reminded the emperor that Buri Hatu may have the habit of collecting newspapers from the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yijun deliberately added a few words to the holy decree, to the effect that Gao Pragmatic "will be independent in the overall situation, and the camera will be defended".

These eight words carry a lot of weight, which is equivalent to the emperor has authorized Gao Pragmatic to make independent decisions on the war position of the Ming Dynasty - that is, whether to start a war with the Mongols or not is all in Gao Pragmatic's thoughts.

Although it is said that the border ministers of the Ming Dynasty have the right to "defend the camera" to a certain extent, it is obvious that other people's camera guards and highly pragmatic camera guards are completely different from each other in terms of impact.

After all, the army in Gao Pragmatic's hands is now as high as 850,000 in name, and it is almost like a sneeze that will shake the mountains. To master such a force, how many things do you need him to "defend with a camera"?

Very few people know about this major event, there are a total of three people in the inner court, including the emperor, and the remaining two are of course Huang Mengyu and Chen Ju, which is needless to say. And only three people in the outer court know, except for Gao Pragmatic, only the first assistant Shen Shixing and the second assistant Xu Guo know the truth of the matter.

The rest of the people, no matter how high their official positions and statuses, are all kept in the dark, and all this is to create conditions for a highly pragmatic deterrence plan.

Gao Shishi, the new official, first announced one thing: the Seven Towns Economic Strategy was located in Daning City.

What, Jing Luo Xingyuan is actually located directly in Daning City?

As soon as this news spread, the officials of the Beijing Division were in an uproar at first, and then they all began to get excited.

The location of Daning City is in Daming Town, southwest of Ningcheng County, Inner Mongolia in the later generations, with Qilaotu Mountain in the west, Nuru Huer Mountain in the east, and the Laoha River, the southern source of the West Liao River, flows through the south. Therefore, it can also be said that Daning controls the upper reaches of the Liao River in the north, the Daling River basin in the east, connects with Xuanfu in the west, and the Yanshan Great Wall in the south, and its strategic position is quite important.

But the current situation is not so simple, because Daning City is still recovered by the previous high-level pragmatic Monan War, and it has only been three years, and the various "indicators" are far from being so easy to say.

At that time, after Gao Shishi recovered Daning City, Daning City was guarded by Qi Jiguang himself, relying on his careful defense, Tumen and Burihatu did not have a good way to take this temporarily renovated and reinforced city, but they came up with an idea, that is, to attack the grain route - in fact, it was to attack the logistics line.

This strategy caused some trouble to the Ming Dynasty at that time, because the north of the Great Wall had been abandoned for many years, and the original guard posts on the road to Daning had long been abandoned, and the Ming army, which was dominated by infantry, was equivalent to marching on hundreds of miles of wilderness and grassland, and was always in a state where the Tumen could strike, so it suffered some losses in the early days.

It was precisely because of such losses that there was a discussion within the court at that time about whether to stick to Daning City.

Then Gao pragmatic stood up, and negotiated a "deal" through consultation with Hannaji, and the Ming Dynasty sent various instructors to Tumut to guide the Tumut Mongols to learn the cultural knowledge of the Han people, and Tumut sent the Chataiji Department to be stationed in the south of Daning to parade and guard against the Mongol cavalry of the Tumen.

In the case of Mongolia against Mongolia, this is a consistent line of thought with high pragmatism, and the results have proved to be indeed very good. The grain road of Daming was soon unblocked, and the city of Daning was quickly renovated and reinforced.

In the following two years, the imperial court was not idle, and in the next two years, the originally abandoned guards from the Great Wall to Daning were slowly built, and the Huizhou Guard, Fuyu Guard, Xinchengwei and Kuanhe Shouyu Thousand Households were re-established.

According to the Ming army system, after the three guards and one are really formed, there should be at least 16,700 actual troops, and if the strength of the border town guards is generally greater than the regular establishment, it should break 20,000.

However, in fact, it is not so easy, because these places even the city is newly built, and there are too few Han people in the city, although the guard can be requisitioned and dispatched from the mainland, but it is not easy, so after more than two years, these three guards have a total of more than 11,000 troops, and they can't even reach the full number, and the population is also small, almost every city has only 30,000 or 40,000 people, which is not as good as a lower county.

But in any case, with these three guards and one house, a stable grain route has finally been reluctantly formed, so that Daning City is no longer completely isolated as before-in Gao pragmatic terms, it is a breathing tube inserted.

Since it is just a breathing tube, the strength of Daning City is obviously not so strong, in fact, there are more than 32,000 people in Daning City now, and it is in a state of defense and defense, and attacking is completely a dream.

But Gao pragmatic announced that he would put the scripture in Daning, so that even a fool could guess what he wanted to do.

The position of Daning City is a "salient" for Daming, and it is not easy to guard. For Chahar, it was even more uncomfortable, as if a sharp knife was always against his vital point, such as a fish in the throat is not enough to describe, it must be said to be a thorn in the flesh in the eye, and he has to pull it out.

One of the two sides regards Daning City as their own confidant, and the other regards Daning City as the starting point of their victory, so as long as it is about Daning City, both sides will pay special attention.

Now that Gao Pragmatic announced that the strategy would be placed in Daning, if the Tumen got the news, they would definitely be very nervous, because Gao Pragmatic felt that according to their expectations, as long as Daming wanted to start a war with him, the starting point of his main army would definitely be in Daning. This point is quite realistic, after all, Daning City is much closer to Chahanhot than other places, and starting from Daning can greatly offset the disadvantage of too many Ming infantry.

Hundreds of officials in the imperial court and even in the folk wine shops and teahouses began to talk about Gao Jingluo, this time I was afraid that he was going to do something to Chahar, otherwise he would not have put the line directly to Daning City. And the emperor's decree also seems to mean something, which proves that this speculation is probably not far from ten.

In the past few years of the Ming Dynasty, the country has been gradually revitalizing, and the soldiers are flourishing!

On such a day full of excitement in the city, a few more businessmen leaving Beijing will not attract attention at all.

However, by the next day, the news seemed to have become a little strange: before Gao Jingluo's people left, several orders were issued, including a request for the seven towns to count the soldiers, armaments, and grain, and some to ask the towns to report on the maintenance and repair of the border wall, but the most important one was definitely to require the towns to carry out spring exercises according to his newly issued standards.

Spring exercises? What is Spring?

The officials and people of Beijing are very puzzled, since ancient times, there has only been autumn exercises, that is, the so-called "big exercises", when did a spring exercise come?

After the autumn exercise, the field is vast, which is conducive to the drill team, and will not harm the field seedlings, so it is sympathetic to the suffering of the people.

Spring is the season of farming, so instead of plowing the fields at this time, you have to go out to exercise?

It must be known that the exercise mentioned here is not to get up in the morning to run a few laps, but to assemble the army on a large scale for intensive training and drills, which belongs to the category of large-scale military activities. Although the time required varies from generation to generation, at least it is measured on a monthly basis, and it is definitely not something that can be completed in three or five days.

This is strange, now that spring has just begun, everyone is waiting for the snow to melt and the ice will melt and the climate will warm up before starting spring ploughing, including the guards in the seven towns, but you Gao Jingluo gave an order to engage in spring exercises? You won't go hungry, but others will, are you not going to let people live?

However, Gao Jingluo obviously still leaves a way for people to live, so when everyone looks at the order, it turns out that after the first ploughing, the spring exercise will be held after the farm work is completed. In this way, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, some people noticed one thing, Gao Jingluo mentioned it very inconspicuously in the order: After the spring exercise is completed, that is, the male soldiers will be led through Daning.

This is very strange, I am afraid that it will take two months after the spring ploughing is completed, and then it will take at least a month to carry out spring exercises, and you will go to Daning after all these are done? At that time, I am afraid that it is not going to be summer, right?

Okay, even if the spring ploughing can't be delayed, the spring exercise must be held, but in this way, when you arrive in Daning, even if you attack immediately, the time left for you is very short - you will not go out with a large army and let your own grain rot in the field, right?

If they don't come back for the autumn harvest, do they expect the women, children and the elderly at home? I'm afraid that next year's days will be enough to choke.

This high scripture is ...... Is it reliable?

Regardless of whether it is reliable or not, Gao Jinglue's order has been conveyed, and he himself began to prepare for the "patrol of the Praetorian Guard and the spring exercises of various towns". Since the Praetorian Guards are now only in charge of military training, and basically do no other work, they are the Praetorian Guards every time they parade.

Qi Jiguang's gold-lettered signboard was not picked up on the side of the road, so the patrol of the Praetorian Guard is not much worth saying, and the really interesting things happened in Mongolia - Chahar, Tumut, and Ordos are all quite interesting.

I have to say that no matter what future generations think, the current Ming Dynasty is really the hegemon of East Asia, and every move will affect the surrounding situation.

After Tumut was crowned with tribute, because of his pragmatic mediation, he had certain privileges in Daming, that is, he could send several permanent envoys in Yanjing to contact the king of Shunyi at any time, and convey the requirements or notices of the Ming dynasty to the royal court of the king of Shunyi as soon as possible. Therefore, Tumut was the first Mongolian Wanhu to learn of Gao Shishi's appointment as a strategy.

Hannaji was quite excited, and ordered on the spot to mobilize the relatively scattered tribes to the naturalized royal court in an orderly manner, especially the part that was originally placed on the eastern front, and a lot of them were mobilized.

His intentions are obvious, with Gao Pragmatic in charge, Da Ming is only afraid that he is going to make a move on Tumen, and this is the best time for him to subdue Ordos, so he is going to start gathering forces and preparing for the southern expedition.

The next person to receive the news was Tumen, relying on the hard work of Buzhihatu in the past three years, Tumen had already planted eyeliner in Yanjing, and these eyeliners were eaten by the line, and the transmission was faster than that of the Tumer envoys, so although the Tumen were farther away from Hannaji, they only received the news one day later.

As soon as he heard that Gao was pragmatic as the governor of the Seven Towns, Tumen felt a chill rising from under his feet and rushing straight to his head, and the whole person woke up.

Daming is going to do it!

It was a matter of life and death, and the Tumen didn't have time to think about it, so they urgently issued a kha order to recall Burihatu to Chahanhot.

When the Khan's order was issued, he breathed a sigh of relief and began to look back and think about the true meaning of Gao Shishi's appointment as the governor of the seven towns.

The figures feel that Gao Pragmatic is doing this Seven Towns strategy, and the goal must be himself, rather than dealing with the stubble of Huo Luochi and Li Rabbit's sneak attack on Xining. Because if it is the latter, Gao Pragmatic at least does not need to go through Jiliao, there is a trilateral and four towns as the main force, and there is a Xuanda three towns as backup, not to mention the fire and the rabbit, even if it is fought together with Ordos, I am afraid it is enough to fight.

Jiliao is too far away to help the northwest. And the Tumen don't think that the Ming Dynasty will send troops from Jiliao to the northwest - after all, Ben Khan is the main master, how can he send troops from in front of me to go elsewhere?

Therefore, Gao Pragmatic and the Seven Towns of Liaoxuan must be coming for him.

So Tumen then began to ponder what Gao Pragmatic might do.

At this time, Tumen's first doubt arose: Gao Pragmatic put the Jingluo Xingyuan directly in Daning, didn't he know that the grain and even many daily necessities in Daning City had to be transported from the Guannei? These things are sent to Daning City, and the price will rise by more than three or four percent, once Gao Shishi really brings the "Xiongjun" first, not to mention anything else, can the Ming Dynasty's treasury support it?

Tumen thought that when Buzhhatu left Chahanhot and went to Qinghai, he once said that because of the continuous wars in the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court is now so poor, and this year there is a ban on opening the domain, and the tighter the treasury, it is impossible to make any big moves.

But the current situation made the Tumen not dare to fully believe in the judgment of Buzhihatu, and he even wondered if Gao Pragmatism had done something like the Yunnan War Treasure Bank.
