The cabinet couldn't help but shake their heads when they looked at each other.

Throughout the ages, there have been so many reasons to go to war, but this is not the only one!

"Taifu, all the use of soldiers, always pay attention to the right name. If you rush to send troops, it will inevitably cause resistance from the Korean people, once the beacon fire continues and cannot be controlled, it is not a good thing for the Ming Dynasty! Yang Shiqi was worried.

Huang Huai also hurriedly said: "Yes, even if we can win the battle, once we fall into the quagmire, we can't get out, and we will lose our money and money...... How will I explain to Your Majesty when the time comes? What's more, I am constantly changing the law, and the big projects are one after another, and the treasury is empty, and I can't take out too much money to support the war. Once the army is in trouble, the loss is huge, I am afraid that there will be domestic instability! ”

Liu Chun looked at the six people and said indifferently: "Do you all think this way?" ”

Yang Shiqi hesitated for a moment and said: "Taifu, we are not against Taifu, North Korea's remarks are indeed rampant, but we can't be rash!" ”

Liu Chun snorted, "You guys, in the final analysis, still don't understand the power of Da Ming...... Do we need to waste money and labor? Do you need to fight in trouble? I advise you a few words, don't always read history books, history books can only be used for reference, you have to open the latest examples, you have to understand how my Ming Dynasty fought! ”

Several cabinet members were reprimanded like children, they look at me, I look at you...... In the end, Jin Youzi said: "Taifu, what do you mean, is it to imitate the tactics of pacifying Annan?" ”

Liu Chun nodded, "It's finally reliable, North Korea is so close to us, it's very easy to deal with it...... First give an order to the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, let them gather men and horses by the Yalu River, and cause pressure, it is best to attract the North Korean people and horses to the north, and then send a fleet to take Seoul directly. ”

Several cabinet members nodded frequently, and Yang Shiqi said again: "Taifu, then what?" What else should I do? ”

"What to do? It's over! The rest is a matter for your Ministry of Rites. ”

"Ministry of Rites?" Yang Shiqi was really stunned, "The war has something to do with the Ministry of Rites!" ”

"Nonsense!" Liu Chun snorted: "We don't fight for the sake of fighting!" Don't we need compensation for our labor expedition? Also, Miyun Reservoir, Liangjing Railway, so many projects, don't you need labor? ”

Yang Shiqi understood this time, Liu Chun asked them to learn to solve Jin, to learn the shameless one!

"Taifu, I'm really ...... waiting"

Liu Chun's face sank, "Yang Shiqi, I won't say much, the matter is there, how big is the investment of the imperial court, how strong is Your Majesty's determination, and where is the people's ability to bear it...... You all know this, how to cherish the people, how to do it for the good of the Ming Dynasty, you know, if you are really hesitant, then you can only ask Xie Jin to teach you how to do it. ”

After Liu Chun finished speaking, he raised his ass and left. The remaining six cabinet members looked at each other.

In the end, it was Yang Pu who broke the silence, "Before, I was reluctant to obey to death, but now, my hair has been shaved, what else can I say!" He touched the short inch on his head, and said helplessly.

The other people looked at each other, and they all nodded helplessly.

Yes, what else is there to hesitate about, in a word, I am bald and stronger.

Without the restraint of their hair, these six pavilion elders turned bad faster than Liu Chun expected.

They quickly completed the division of labor.

Yang Shiqi continued to deceive on the side of the Ministry of Rites, mainly dealing with the vassal states, and reprimanding the Korean and Japanese states, telling them to be honest and not to be delusional.

Obviously, words alone are not enough to discourage the ambitions of these vassal states.

What Yang Shiqi has to do is only to stabilize them.

Then, on the other side, together with Hu Guang and Huang Huai, they dispatched troops to Liaodong and put pressure on North Korea. This is still a bluff, because the people who are mobilized are all border troops, as well as the men and horses of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, and their combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the forbidden army.

In this way, it will also give North Korea the illusion that the Ming does not want to fall out with them, but just scares them.

For children, as long as they are sure that their parents don't really want to fight, they will become very aggressive and more rampant, and what Daming needs is this rampant.

As for the glorious combat mission, the Cabinet has not yet figured it out.

Who is more suitable?

"Let Zhu Yong go."

This time it was Liu Chun who ordered it, but as Zhu Yong's deputy general, Liu Chun ordered a person who no one expected, Zhu Rong, the king of Qi!

"Taifu, the king of Qi is greedy and tyrannical, let him go to North Korea, I'm afraid that he will be ruined!"

"That's right! Taifu, I think it's better to choose another safe person, right? ”

"Yes, you must not send King Qi!"

……

The cabinet princes desperately objected, and at this time, someone suddenly coughed behind the screen, and then a tall guy turned out, it was King Qi! He snorted vigorously at a few people, "North Korea is the fief of this king, and this king is not going, do you want to let you go?" ”

"What?"

Everyone in the cabinet was shocked, King Qi's fief is North Korea, haven't you heard of it?

"You know what! This is what Your Majesty promised me, from now on, this king will not cause you trouble, maybe you still need this king's help! ”

Zhu Yan smiled at Liu Chun again: "Taifu, give me another reward!" ”

"Who?"

"Liu Guan!"

Zhu Yu smiled and said: "I heard that he was also sold by hundreds of officials, this is good, wasn't this how Xie Jin was at the beginning!" He did a good job in Annam, and I think Liu Guan can also become a good hand at governing Goryeo, so let's do it! ”

Liu Chun did not hesitate and nodded directly.

"Yes."

Zhu Yu left happily, still singing!

The more they thought about it, the more confused they became...... They gathered around Liu Chun and kept muttering, this is a military matter, it's not that simple, you really can't be so hasty, it's really not good.

The king of Qi has a bad temper, how can he be willing to obey Zhu Yong's arrangement, the generals are not in harmony, and the army is going to go on an expedition, this is going to happen.

If you lose, the consequences are unimaginable!

"If you are worried, you can find a way to do it yourself, and then bother me, even Zhu Yong will not go, just let King Qi go by himself!"

The cabinet really can't help it.

"I think I'm going to lose." Huang Huai said in a muffled voice.

"No, it's certain!" Hu Guang said helplessly: "Since ancient times, the arrogant army will be defeated, I think the Taifu is getting carried away." ”

Jin Youzi also said: "This time it is a few of us who are leading, in case we are defeated, we have to calculate it, how can this be good?" ”

Yang Shiqi listened to their complaints, and there was no way.

"Okay, let's try to find a way according to what Taifu said!"

In addition to asking Zhu Di to increase his troops in Liaodong, Yang Shiqi also adopted means to negotiate with the North Korean envoys.

The two sides have been back and forth, and a full month has passed.

And the envoy of the DPRK finally saw the reality of the Ming Dynasty, and this time the envoy of the DPRK, Mr. Zheng, seemed full of momentum. After he saw Yang Shiqi, he just bowed, very arrogant.

"Your country has changed the law over the years, not only ignoring the laws of the ancestors, abolishing the Chinese clothes, but also neglecting the sages, and even the two saints of Confucius and Mencius no longer sacrifice, what is the reason?"

Yang Shiqi said with a dark face: "What do I do, I don't need to ask you for instructions, you can't control it!" ”

"Definitely!" Zheng Zongzheng said: "The old man is a bachelor of art and literature in the Spring and Autumn Pavilion, I inherited the Jizi in North Korea, and for thousands of years, I have been in Huaxia Zhengshuo, and the poetry and books are instructed, which is no different from the Central Plains." The people are stable and happy, and the country is rich and strong, just like the paradise of the East. ”

"Now that the Ming Dynasty has changed the law of a thousand years, but North Korea is unwilling to follow, the old man implores your country to give up the name of China and give it to North Korea. In addition, the DPRK also plans to welcome the mausoleum of Confucius to the DPRK for burial for the people to pay respects to. Anyway, your country doesn't want it, so what can we do with it? ”

"Arrogance!"

Yang Shiqi really couldn't listen to it anymore, "Li Chenggui usurped the throne and acted nonsense, I haven't settled accounts with you yet, I dare to talk nonsense, who gave you the guts?" ”

Mr. Zheng saw that Yang Shiqi was angry, so he had to restrain himself.

"Lord Yang, I am up and down in North Korea, reading the book of Confucius and Mencius, respecting the gift of Zhou Gong, for thousands of years, education is flourishing, and it is known as a splendid little China. Since the founding of our king, he has sent envoys several times to request canonization. However, your country only gave the name of the country, but it was reluctant to canonize our king, and the whole country, the military and the people, all discussed a lot, and they all felt that the actions of the kingdom were too different from the usual, and they lost their demeanor. Especially when the old man came here, he found that everyone in your country shaved their hair, this, what is this like? It's just laughable. ”

As he spoke, he took off his hat, revealing his bun, which was not much bigger than the jujube pit, and was triumphant, as if to say, how about it, you didn't have it, right?

"Lord Yang, the old man thinks that the laws of the ancestors cannot be changed at will, and the key to governing the country is first in the hearts of the people, and the people's hearts are stable, just like Mount Tai, although the wind and rain are intertwined, when it does not move, it is like the current North Korea."

"On the other hand, your country is disturbed from top to bottom, people's hearts are fluctuating, and the people are restless...... Although such a country is big, it is difficult to convince people! The old man dared to advise your country that it should change its evil and return to the right as soon as possible. We can emulate the DPRK in order to set the foundation of the country and set the record straight. Our North Korea retains Chinese orthodoxy, the country is small and beautiful, and the people are rich, which is really not comparable to the Ming Dynasty! ”

Listening to this talking, Yang Shiqi came out with two words: rotten Confucian!

That's right, how is this old minister so much like the former Ming Dynasty, you claim to be Chinese orthodoxy, and from this point of view, you really can't refute it.

There are strange things every year, and there are especially many of them this year.

"Mr. Zheng, it's still the same sentence, don't worry about the affairs of Daming, I don't need you to talk nonsense."

This hurriedly shook his head, "No, the Ming Dynasty inherited the Huaxia Zhengshuo in order to command the country of the Quartet." Now that the Ming Dynasty has abandoned Zhengshuo, my North Korea should be the head of the vassal state, and my king should accept the congratulations of all countries, from now on, the king of Korea should be renamed the Great Emperor, and the Great Tomorrow Son is neck and neck! ”

"You're looking for death!"

Yang Shiqi really couldn't listen to it anymore, he stood up suddenly, and Mr. Zheng had an expression of what can you do to me.

If you don't take advantage of the chaos of the Ming Dynasty and reap the benefits, I'm really sorry for this trip!

At this time, someone suddenly ran in and muttered a few words in Yang Shiqi's ear, Yang Shiqi hurriedly went out, Mr. Zheng was still sneering, look, Daming is in trouble again.

"Lord Yang, the King of Qi has sent good news, our army has captured the king of Joseon, and it is being loaded and transported back, according to the time of sending the letter, there are three more days, and you can be escorted back to Daming!"
