Chapter 548: Thinking in the Long Run, Plotting in the Late Night

The Wuliangha people of Duoyan Sanwei have always been a double-edged sword for Zhu Di. I think that when he started his army to defend the city, the first thing he did was to leave the princess and the prince in Beiping to defend the city, and he went straight to Da Ningwei, using countless means openly and secretly, and finally coerced Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, into his camp, and at the same time got the most desired Duoyan Sanwei. He was able to resist the world and even seize the world with a single land, thanks to the Wuliangha people who followed him to fight in the south and the north, so after he ascended the throne, he moved Daningwei to Baoding Mansion, sealed Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, to Nanchang, and then gave the land of Daning to Duoyan Sanwei for grazing.

However, although the ancient city of Daning was abandoned day by day, he never allowed the Wuliangha people to enter the city, and even because of the hookup between Duoyan Sanwei and Arutai, the conflicts on the border have never been broken. I couldn't find Arutai this time, and all his anger was sprinkled on Duoyan Sanwei's head, but he never thought about this one mentioned by Zhang Yue.

No jokes! He could change his way to prevent the Uliangha from going south, but how could the sealed place be recovered?

Zhang Yue didn't know much about the emperor's mind at this time, but he could see that Zhu Di didn't seem to be happy. However, in his opinion, since the gradual southward movement of the northern border in the early years of Yongle, it is precisely because Zhu Di and Zhu Quan, the two vassal kings who originally defended the first line of Mengyuan, ascended the throne and became the Son of Heaven, and the other was aggrieved and reluctantly nested in Nanchang. Since Zhu Di later decided to move the capital to Beijing in order to defend against Meng Yuan, why not take advantage of the rebellion of the Uliangha people to take Daning back?

Today's Ming Dynasty wants military strength and military strength, and it wants to be righteous and righteous, and what is lacking is only determination!

There was silence in the imperial tent, and several little eunuchs who didn't understand state affairs held their breath and kept silent, and seeing that although the emperor's face was not good-looking, he didn't get angry immediately, Yang Rong understood that the Son of Heaven was hesitating. He was proficient in military affairs, and he was able to make decisions, but that was only for what the emperor needed him to decide. If Da Ning Wei was not important, Emperor Taizu would not have let Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, be stationed at the beginning, and Ning Yan and Yan would not be called the strongest feudal domains in the world. Daning gave Duoyan Sanwei, and it was good for Jingshi to have an extra layer of barrier, but it also had an extra layer of threat. If it weren't for the Uliangha people, Arutai would have recovered so quickly, and would he have understood the movements of the Ming Dynasty so quickly?

Jin Youzi accompanied the Northern Expedition twice and was also extremely familiar with military affairs. In this unspeakable atmosphere, he moved his shoulders lightly unnaturally, and then rebuked Zhang Yue: "The emperor has given the land of Daning to the Wuliangha people for grazing for more than ten years, if they can show their deference during this crusade, then the grace of heaven is mighty, and they should not be blamed in the past." Even if you resist stubbornly, it is only to eliminate the first evil, how can you change it lightly! Militaristic events are different child's play, Hugh has to talk nonsense! ”

Zhang Yue simply gritted his teeth and kowtowed: "Since the emperor has raised troops to fight, he naturally hopes to be able to do it once and for all, they frequently enter the border to scourge the border, and even if the heavenly soldiers come, what they want is not to surrender and ask for guilt, but to escape with a fluke heart, or simply Chen Bing." The emperor gave them the land of Daning to graze before, that is, to reward them for their previous merits, and now they are guilty, and if they take it back, it is to add to the crime. If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have faults, you will be punished, this is the right way for monarchs and ministers! ”

Different from Yang Rong's thoughtfulness, Jin Youzi's big frown, Zhu Di's face changed slightly at this time, and his anger gradually decreased a little. Although Zhang Yue is only a small soldier in the arsenal of the Ministry of Arms, he is not qualified to discuss such a major policy, but he used it to speak bluntly at the beginning, and he knows that this young Zhang family kid is this kind of honest temper. If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have done it, you will be punished. This time, for the sake of the northern expedition, he killed one Shangshu and imprisoned two Shangshu, but Arutai escaped, and this account could only fall on the Wuliangha people!

"If you have a good mind, I will not pursue your sin of falsehood, go down and reflect on it! Remember to prepare, turn around and set off with me, and go straight to the lair of the Uliangha! ”

Faced with this fluttering reflection, Zhang Yue had no choice but to retire and leave, and the two ministers who remained in the imperial tent felt that this was extremely light. As soon as Zhang Yue left, Yang Rong said: "Your Majesty, it has been more than ten years since Daning Sanwei moved to Baoding Mansion, and now its combat strength is not as good as before. Moreover, after all, Duoyan Sanwei has occupied it for more than ten years, even if he does not dare to disobey this time due to military power, he may make a comeback in the future. ”

Yang Rong said vaguely, but Zhu Di understood what he meant. He made his fortune from Beiping, but he ascended the throne in Nanjing, and at that time he abolished Kaiping Wutunwei in one go, and almost the entire Northern Parallel Capital Division gave Doyan Sanwei grazing, hoping that without him blocking in the north, the Uliangha people could block Tatar and Warat for him. Now it's a good thing, the people who helped him at the beginning stabbed him with a knife, and the almost completely abandoned Northern Parallel Capital Division is only Kaiping Xinghe and a few post stations and earthen forts.

"I'll take a long-term view of this matter!"

Coming out of the imperial tent, Zhang Yue couldn't help but look up at the sky, but saw that a crescent moon was already hanging high in the sky. Although there were 300,000 troops around, there was not much noise due to the strict military orders. There are armies in the surrounding twenty miles, and there is a fixed number of lanterns in each camp, and there are strict fire prevention and night watch measures.

He didn't realize it when he spoke in the imperial tent just now, but when he thought about it this time, he was already a little afraid. Zhu Di, the emperor, is extremely suspicious, if he misunderstands his meaning, it will really be a way to cause trouble just now. Thinking that he had been with the Northern Expedition for so long, he had never met Zhang Fu in private, and at this time, even if he was full of difficulties, it was not good to rush over, and he couldn't help but feel even more depressed.

"By the way, tomorrow is the sixth day of June?"

Suddenly, he thought of this stubble, and saw that the military tent where he and Yang Rongjin Youzi lived was not far away, and the familiar big man was hanging outside the tent, so he walked forward quickly and called out: "Old Peng, go out for a walk with me." ”

Peng Shisan, who was originally holding a grass root in his mouth, was looking up at the stars in the sky to calculate the direction, and when he heard this, he quickly turned his head: "Let's go?" Didn't you say before that the Chinese army should not wander around at will? ”

Seeing that Zhang Yue's face was not very good-looking, and then remembering that he had just been summoned by the Son of Heaven, he immediately understood, "Anyway, it's still early to go to bed at night, so let's take a look in the Chinese army camp!" ”

Zhang Yue, who was silent, nodded, and the two walked out one after the other. Every expedition to the north departs in the spring, and when the war really begins on the grassland, it is often summer. The Chinese army's tent was in the inner camp, and the outside of those tall tents was surrounded by a wooden fence, and beyond the fence, you could see countless sergeants sleeping on the ground covered with felt blankets. Zhang Yue stood in front of the fence for a while, but finally did not go out of the gate, but took Peng Shisan to the right slowly.

Although Liu Sheng, Marquis of Anyuan, led the Chinese army, the elite of these elites who guarded the inner camp belonged to the Imperial Horse Prison Army. It was not yet late at night, and there were few sounds other than the footsteps of the night patrol sergeant. Zhang Yue originally wanted to take a walk to dispel his thoughts about his family, but after most of the circle, his thoughts increased instead of decreasing.

My son will catch Zhou tomorrow, and I don't know what kind of trick he will catch. Even the rouge gouache doesn't matter, anyway, it's up to his father to do the hard work, and as long as the son has a good character in the future, it doesn't matter if he likes to mess around in the fat powder pile. Having said that, I don't know if the previous night madness can really bring a baby daughter to his wife and himself...... Is grandmother's body good or bad? Does Zhang Jing still like to stick to her sister-in-law as she did then? Will Zhang Chao be restless because he can't join the army? Are those girls still blindly drilling the horns......

Just when his mind was full of cranky thoughts, he suddenly felt someone gently pull his arm, and immediately stopped. When he turned around and saw Peng 13 making a gesture to himself, he was stunned for a moment, but he didn't want Peng 13 to suddenly rush over, so he pulled him and hid in the dead corner of another tent. Before he could figure out what was going on, he heard some stumbling footsteps.

"I thought there were people here, but it seems that I made a mistake! Hey, if you have anything to say, hurry up and ask, I'm still in a hurry to go back, otherwise I have to let Gonggong Liu find out. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yuedeng's heart tightened. Listening to this, is that the person next to Liu Yongcheng?

"Did Gonggong Liu really send someone to send a letter out?"

"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes outside the tent. Gonggong Liu is in charge of the imperial guards, he is loyal to the emperor, and he is also close to His Royal Highness the Prince, and others can't reach out at all. And he is not greedy, although he also puts money in his pocket, but after all, he knows the stakes. Get rid of him, no matter who he replaces, it's easier to deal with. ”

"To get rid of him, you have to rely on that letter. News should come from Kaiping's side soon. As long as you take one person's stolen goods, let alone Gonggong Liu, even the prince can't eat and walk around! ”

"The emperor originally hated that people were watching the movements around him, not to mention that he was still the great eunuch in charge of the imperial horse eunuch, this time he could make a good fuss, and the Chitose Lord could finally breathe a sigh of relief."

The two voices were extremely blurry, if it weren't for Zhang Yue's ear power, it would be difficult to even listen to one at this time. Of course, if it weren't for Peng Shisan's agility and ability to find a place to hide, he would have been discovered by those two guys who were still vigilant despite secret conversations. There was not the slightest light here, and even if he could stick his head out to look, he couldn't identify who the two black shadows were, so he could only memorize the voice, but he quickly calculated it in his heart.

Although Liu Yongcheng, the eunuch of the imperial horse eunuch, said that he was not as decent as Zhang Qian, he was still an ironclad princeling. If he wrote something important in that letter, and it was really intercepted, then the consequences would be worse than the one in the twelfth year of Yongle. That time was just that the prince was late to take over, and this time it was the East Palace watching the holy driver, plus he wanted to get involved in the imperial horse superintendent!

After a long time had passed for these two people, Peng Shisan quietly pulled Zhang Yue out, and then said with a smile: "I just saw that the young master was thinking about something, so I deliberately fell farther, who knew that I just found such two sneaky guys." ”
