Chapter 1258. revenge
The King of Min replied to the office, and the various systems of the Yamen of the Great Min Imperial Court also re-operated like a stream, and the news of all parties and various holy decrees flowed in and out like flowing water. One? Read book 1
It wasn't long before all kinds of information were completely gathered in front of Li Jie.
The face of Li Ji, the secretary of the military department, was very gloomy, and the faces of the other ministers were not very good-looking, no one expected that the losses would be so heavy.
More than 100,000 troops were defeated, the Eastern Roman Royal Navy rushed out of the Golden Horn and fled into the Mediterranean Sea without knowing where to go.
Only Li Jie seemed to be looking at the paperwork as usual, as if nothing had happened.
"Li Yexu was careless, which led to such a catastrophe, the old minister asked for his life, filmed the imperial history to take him, and returned to Beijing to ask for the guilt!"
Seeing that Li Jie didn't speak, Imperial Doctor Li Gang couldn't help but jump out angrily, holding the wat board and asking for his life.
His words made the faces of the rest of the important ministers even Li Ji change, who knew that Li Jie didn't blink his eyelids, and said lightly: "If you want to say something wrong, it is the widow who mistakenly believes the villain, and the widow's order makes my Damin suffer such an insult, and the widow will issue an edict against himself in the evening, don't mention this matter again, just let people reprimand Li Yexu."
Listening to Li Jie's words, all the ministers couldn't help but relax, and then their reverence for Li Jie emerged.
The greatest responsibility in history has always been the emperor, but the most difficult to admit the mistake is also the emperor, just like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who knew that it was because he was bewitched by the powerful minister Jiang Yun, killed the prince by mistake, and killed tens of thousands of people in vain, but he was still nervous, and it was not until his later years that he secretly issued an edict against himself. One? See?? Book w?ww look・1?k?a?n?s?h?u??
Huaxia pays attention to the venerable, there are many dead monarchs in history, but people often blame the traitors, the emperors are all blinded, there is no fault at all, even if the Ming monarch is like Li Jie's father Li Shimin, he was admonished by Wei Zheng, at most he rewarded Wei Zheng with something afterwards, and he never admitted his mistake in person.
Even like Emperor Chongzhen, the king of the country in later generations, even at the moment of death, he howled that the ministers misunderstood me, and never thought about his mistakes, which shows that it is difficult for the emperor to admit his mistakes.
It is really rare to have the courage to take responsibility like Li Jie.
They didn't know that it was because they knew the stubbornness of these emperors in history that Li Jie was so brave to take responsibility, and the one who had the greatest influence on him was also the Chongzhen Emperor.
The current situation is really similar to the Qing army when it hit the city of Beijing, there is such a big basket, the military department is still in the book, and the Fengge Luantai group is not responsible? If you really investigate it, I'm afraid that a large number of people will be implicated immediately.
That's what the Ming Dynasty did, Chongzhen refused to take responsibility, no one thought about the strategy of retreating, and the ministers and ministers just shirked their responsibilities to each other, taking the opportunity to attack each other, making the Ming Dynasty political ups and downs, and letting the Qing army ravage the hinterland of Gyeonggi to the point where it was not done, and Li Jie would not repeat this mistake.
At present, revenge on Constantine IV is the most urgent thing, and instead of letting everyone attack each other and be afraid, it is better to take the responsibility yourself, so that the ministers can continue to do things for themselves easily and calmly.
Lao Li just stopped saying when he saw this, in view of the current situation, the six ministries and the prime ministers began to discuss and coordinate, and in a moment, several feasible strategies were taken out, and coincidentally, at this moment, the prime minister Di Renjie, who went to interrogate those Roman senators, also returned quickly. 1?k?an?s?h?u?c?c??
Understanding what kind of political direction the Eastern Roman Empire was was even more important than directly mobilizing troops, the ministers once again eagerly surrounded him, and looked at Li Jie, who took the confession.
opened the envelope that still smelled of blood, and looked at it twice, even Li Jie couldn't help but scold: "What a traitor!"
Sun Tzu's Art of War has clouds, there are five uses, there are causes, there are insides, there are counters, there are births, and there are deaths! Aetius happens to be one of the most vicious and tragic of the five types of spies, Dead!
It is true that Aetius was an old senator, and he did not look down on Constantine IV, who had risen to power by killing his father and brother, but he did not want Rome to fall into the hands of the Great Min.
All this is his strategy with Constantine IV, as soon as the locust tactics of the Great Min came out, Aetius had long expected that many of the elders who were released back by the Great Min would be unstable, so he was the most active in contacting the senators for a coup d'état, and also led the army to fight with Constantine IV for a few days, and even killed one of Constantine IV's sons.
Because of this, he disguised himself as impeccable, and he was still Anna's enlightenment teacher, and it seemed natural to lead the patriarchs to take refuge in Damin.
Just at the moment when Damin and Anna were most paralyzed, he tried to see the dagger.
The people who smuggled back to Constantinople before were all his henchmen, and this time, his main purpose was not to kill Li Jie, it was best to kill the king of Min, and it didn't matter if he couldn't kill him, because as long as he got rid of Anna, Da Min would no longer have a reasonable reason to intervene in Rome.
Taking her children to assassinate her as Anna's teacher is really similar to the scene at the end of the Roman Republic, Caesar's illegitimate son Brutus conspired with other senators to assassinate Julius Caesar, and it is no wonder that Aetius was so emotional before he died.
However, although Aetius was defeated and died, he did a great favor to Constantine IV, and it was not unreasonable for the soldiers to say that they must first settle inside, and they wiped out the opposition forces in the city of Constantinople in one go, and poured dirty water on Damin, Aetius did a wonderful job.
"This hero, concubine, please kill this fangjiu clan!"
It was Li Gang, a doctor with a strong sense of justice, who was the first to jump out, and he was deceived to death, such as Wang Fangyi Laiji and others nodded again and again, and he followed Aetius to assassinate Anna last night, and his son and nephew just got the news that the Romans tortured and killed their captives, so they should retaliate.
Only Lao Li Ji frowned and shook his head.
"At this time, Constantine IV is the time to detain the patriarchs under the pretext of my Great Min and rein in the hearts of the army, it is not appropriate to stimulate them too much now, kill these people, there will be opportunities in the future, Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry!"
It's a pity that Li Jie didn't listen to him this time, Li Jie already hated the assassin last night, and ruthlessly denied: "These scum, kill them, kill them, anyway, there are still a large number of senators in our hands, don't worry about exposing the deception of Constantine IV, the Ministry of Punishment issued a decree, Aetius will be killed in the city for the crime of bullying the king, in vain, assassination, and rebellion, beheaded, returned to Constantinople, and deterred the enemy!"
The two cabinets and six departments were unprecedentedly efficient, and everyone agreed on the spot, even if Li Jixin was unwilling, the holy decree was quickly conveyed, and the killing of Aetius's entire family was a foregone conclusion.
As soon as this matter passed, Li Jie stared at the old Li Jixuan's face with blazing eyes, and asked loudly.
"The English duke, the widow wants to use you as the head of the march to attack Constantinople, can the British duke dare to pull down this city for the widow?"
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the entire six cabinet departments also converged on Li Ji's body.
Although Da Min has made great achievements, he has to admit that there are not many commanders like Li Ji, who are wise and cautious, wise and brave.
At present, the national prestige of the Great Min has been challenged and insulted like never before, and the best countermeasure is to return blood for blood, and the capture of Constantinople is indeed the best means of revenge, and only the blood of the enemy can wash away the shame on the body.
But the old Li Ji is bitter and self-aware, he is the secretary of the military department, I don't know how long the terrain of Constantinople has been studied, and he knows best how dangerous this city is, the best way is to stick to the original strategy, and use rangers to attack the Eastern Roman Empire, even if Constantine IV controls the current situation, there is no reinforcement outside, and the food and salary will still be born, and then take Constantinople, it will be easy.
But in Li Jie's eyes, the surging war was already obvious, and other colleagues were also ashamed of King Min, and at this time they were most eager to wash away the shame, even if they were cautious, the battle word in his mouth had almost blurted out, and in this case, Li Ji couldn't say the veto anyway.
Finally, with a secret sigh, Lao Li Ji prostrate on the ground, and impassionedly commanded: "The old minister has to be picked up by His Majesty, and the homeless can have such a good guard, and the old minister should be smeared with liver and brain, and take this city for His Majesty to repay his kindness!"
"Good!"
was really happy in his heart, Li Jie heartily reached out and untied his saber, held his hands in front of Li Ji, and actually bowed and bowed.
"Everything, please leave it to the military department!"
