At the banquet, there was singing and dancing.
Zhu Qiyu didn't drink at all. He raised his glass of water and said to Yanda: "I can grant your request, but I have one condition. The Tatars will first donate 100,000 horses."
"I don't want a stallion from you, just a strong horse."
"Then, I will start border trade at the border and trade with you Tatar."
"I have agreed to all the trade you requested."
"I can even sell you weapons directly. If you want anything, just list out the terms and discuss directly with Honglu Temple. Since the Tatars are respectful, I will agree to everything!"
Zhu Qiyu also worked hard.
Yanda's face is full of greed. Is Ming willing to sell weapons?
Then you must buy firearms. After the Great Yuan Dynasty, the grassland has no shortage of blacksmiths, and iron can be bought through smuggling. What makes the grassland covetous are the firearms of the Ming Dynasty!
"Dear Tian Khan, the herdsmen will meet all your requirements, but it takes time to raise war horses. Please ask the great Tian Khan to start border trade first. My envoy has brought 200 horses. Please accept the great Tian Khan. !”
Yanda brought horses and gold, which were used to bribe Ming officials, or they could be given directly to the emperor.
"It's still a filial piety, so I'll accept it reluctantly."
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Sit down and drink this cup!"
Yanda drank it down in one gulp.
"The wine in Ouchi is one of the best in the world." Zhu Qiyu sipped his saliva, looking intoxicated.
Yanda wanted to spit it out. This wine was too spicy. It must be Touguo wine. It smelled very fragrant and did not choke the nose, but it could stifle a donkey.
"Hahaha, my servant is a good drinker!"
Zhu Qiyu winked at Xiao Weizhen and asked the Honglu Temple officials to force them to drink.
But I have to say that those who engage in diplomacy have a good drinking capacity.
Yanda drank a few glasses and his face turned red, but he was not drunk. This was the high-quality white wine collected in the imperial palace.
"My servant."
"My lord is here!" Yanda was able to bend and stretch.
"When will the 100,000 war horses that were sent as tribute to the Ming Dynasty be escorted to the Ming Dynasty?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"I dare not deceive the great Khan of Heaven. It does take time to raise war horses. Please wait patiently, Great Khan of Heaven. Your loyal servant will definitely send the war horses to the Ming Dynasty!" Yanda wanted to kiss Zhu Qiyu's shoes.
Zhu Qiyu thought he was dirty: "Specific time!"
"Within a month!"
Zhu Qiyu frowned slightly. It seems that one hundred thousand horses are missing? Are the Tatars so rich?
No, even if I ask for one million horses, they will agree!
The Tatar coup is likely to be completed within a month. No matter whether the Grand Master or Mandulu is in power, they will not recognize these 100,000 war horses!
You are playing with me!
"No, I don't want to wait that long. In ten days, I want to see the war horse!"
Yanda's face was full of bitterness: "Great Khan, unless you give wings to your loyal servant, there is nothing you can do for your loyal servant."
"Is it because there are too many horses and we can't raise them? Or is it a problem with the distance?" Zhu Qiyu asked calmly.
"The great Tian Khan has both factors..."
"It doesn't matter, I can send people to the grassland to take over. If the horses are not enough, you can use cattle and sheep to pay the bill. I will send people to drive them back." Zhu Qiyu said.
Yanda's face froze, why couldn't the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty be fooled?
"The great Khan..."
"Okay, you return immediately, and I will send an envoy to follow!"
Zhu Qiyu paused, turned around and asked Fang Ying: "How many movable troops does the capital have?"
Fang Ying is setting up a regiment camp.
There was a banquet tonight, so Zhu Qiyu invited him over to discuss some things in detail.
"Your Majesty, the capital has 50,000 troops at its disposal!"
Fang Ying counted the 50,000 men stationed at Juyongguan in the hands of Fan Guang.
Wala was defeated, and there was no need to garrison so many people at Juyongguan.
Naturally, the Beijing camp led by Fan Guang needs to return to Beijing, and the Beijing camp in Xuanzhen will return to Beijing one after another.
"I will send an army of fifty thousand, plus the soldiers and horses of Liaodong Town, to the grassland to receive a hundred thousand horses!"
Zhu Qiyu said to Yanda: "My servant, you set out at starry night and take my instructions with you to mobilize troops in Liaodong."
Yanda was dumbfounded.
Are you too anxious? He didn't even let the envoys finish the meal and then drove them back?
Hu Xi and others pursed their lips and wanted to laugh. The emperor was not anxious, but prickly.
This banquet is so painful.
"Let's get going."
Zhu Qiyu saw that the Tatar delegation was still eating: "Stop eating, take away the banquet."
You are really stingy!
Hu Xi and others rolled their eyes.
Yanda was also dumbfounded: "The great Khan..."
"Okay, okay, pack up and go back."
Zhu Qiyu stood up, pointed at Fang Ying and said, "This is Uncle Nanhe, my son and daughter's in-laws. I am sending him and you to Tartar."
"Fang Ying, go assemble the army quickly and lead 50,000 elite troops. In an hour, we will set off to attack the Tatars. You are not allowed to delay for a moment. Do you understand?"
Fang Ying didn't know what medicine the emperor sold in his gourd.
He is recruiting troops, and he has only recruited more than 30,000 people. How can there be 50,000 people? Moreover, they are all new recruits who don't even know how to use weapons. How can they go to the battlefield?
But when the emperor said it, he agreed loudly and retreated heroically, full of momentum.
"Prepare a basin of cold water for my servant to wake him up, and return to Mobei overnight to raise 100,000 horses for the greatest Sky Khan in the grassland." Zhu Qiyu stood up, looking excited.
Wang Wei and Yi Ming couldn't help but laugh, trying not to laugh.
Plop!
Yanda knelt on the ground, unable to pretend any longer: "Great Khan, your servant has deceived you!"
"Um?"
The excited expression on Zhu Qiyu's face was stiff, and his voice became gloomy: "Say it again!"
"Great Khan, the Tatars are so poor that they can't raise a hundred thousand horses!" Yanda answered tremblingly.
"That's all. For the sake of the obedient Marquis, let's reduce it by ten thousand or ninety thousand horses."
Yanda said cautiously: "We can't even raise 90,000 horses."
"Eighty thousand!"
Yanda didn't dare to speak anymore, paused for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "Not even 80,000!"
"Fifty thousand horses, no more!" Zhu Qiyu's expression was cold, as if his anger could burst out at any time.
There was silence in the hall, the singing and dancing were about to stop, and the ministers knelt on the ground in horror to apologize.
Invisibly, huge pressure was put on Yanda.
"Great Khan, your servants have deceived you. This winter has been too cold, and the herdsmen have suffered. The Tatars, who were not rich to begin with, have become even poorer and cannot raise 50,000 horses! "
"Where are the fifty thousand cows?" Zhu Qiyu's eyes were gloomy.
Yanda cried: "The cows are freezing to death, it's really not enough!"
"Then tell me, how much tribute can I pay to Tian Khan?" Zhu Qiyu's eyes were as sharp as a knife.
Yanda cautiously extended a finger.
"Ten thousand horses? Although it's a little less, the greatest Sky Khan in the grassland can also forgive his servants. That's all, just ten thousand horses!"
Zhu Qiyu sighed, but he was actually happy. In fact, he would be satisfied with two or three thousand horses.
"Dear Khan, you have misunderstood the meaning of your servant. Your servant can only raise a thousand horses..."
Before Yan Da finished speaking, Zhu Qiyu exploded first, pointing to the basin of cold water: "Pour it on his head to wake him up!"
Wow!
I poured a basin of cold water on my head and it felt really cool.
"Are you teasing Tian Khan?" Zhu Qiyu said sharply.
"No, I don't dare!" Yanda's head was covered with water, but he didn't dare to shake it off.
"From one hundred thousand horses to one thousand horses, are you kidding me?"
Zhu Qiyu said angrily: "Come here, prepare another basin of cold water for him and pour it into his mouth. I want to see if he is talking nonsense!"
Yan Da was shocked. He never expected that the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty would be even more violent than Ye Xian!
Soon, a copper basin came in with water.
"Open your mouth and drink!"
Zhu Qiyu suddenly looked at everyone in the mission: "No one is allowed to plead for mercy. Anyone who pleads for mercy will be killed!"
The mission of nearly a hundred people was very nervous.
Gulu! Gulu!
A basin of cold water was poured into Yanda's belly, which made Yanda's belly swell.
"I'll give you another chance. How much tribute will the Tatars give me?" Zhu Qiyu asked in a cold voice.
Yanda cried bitterly: "Your humble servant dare not deceive the great Khan. You are as majestic as an eagle. Please forgive the weak lamb!"
"Even if I agree, the Tatars will not be able to get so many horses."
"The Tatars are afraid, the great Khan leads the heavenly troops to the grassland, and your people are trembling!"
Diplomats speak well.
It's as if Ming Dynasty really rules the grassland.
"Refill!"
Zhu Qiyu pointed to the copper basin: "When do you tell the truth and when do you stop!"
Yanda was surprised, the emperor of the Central Plains had changed his gender?
In the past few years, Tatars could receive numerous rewards if they submitted a petition to profess their vassal status.
The Central Plains is rich in resources, and good things are endless. The emperor of the Central Plains only needs to pluck a leg hair, which is enough for the Mobei people to live for several years.
As long as the Tatars are poor, they will gather the wool of the Ming Dynasty, and they will live for several years at a time, and they are used to it.
But when did Emperor Jingtai become as cunning as a fox?
"Don't, don't do it..."
Gulu!
Yanda's belly was visibly stretched, and the water was still pouring heavily.
The envoys were trembling and did not dare to speak.
Zhu Qiyu watched the play with great interest. From beginning to end, he did not move a bite of the food in front of him.
Hu Xi coughed lightly and reminded the emperor not to play to death.
"S-I told you, stop feeding me..." Yanda's voice was almost breathless. Feeding her with cold water was also torture.
But his voice was too low, and the guard in charge didn't hear him, so he continued to drink.
"S-Said!"
Yanda was being poured and vomiting out at the same time. The two streams of water were blocked in his throat, almost suffocating, and the cold water that was poured in flowed into the nose, and the entire lung cavity was about to burst.
"Cough cough cough!"
When no more water is given, a severe cough develops.
He is just a little envoy. Even if he is killed by the Ming Emperor, the Tatars will not attack the Ming Dynasty because of him!
Especially after the defeat of Oara, the Tatars would never dare to provoke the Ming Dynasty.
Yanda overestimated himself and underestimated the Ming Emperor.
"Dear Khan, your servant knows he is wrong!"
As a diplomat, Yanda got up and saluted respectfully.
Even though his belly was about to burst, he still insisted on saluting: "Your servant has revealed the truth to you. Please help your servant. I beg you, the great Khan!"
"Please give your servant a separate space!"
"I want to hear the truth, do you understand?" Zhu Qiyu stared at him coldly.
"Your humble servant dare not deceive the wise Khan!" Yanda was sweet-mouthed.
Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and told the delegation to get out of the hall.
All officials of the Ming Dynasty stayed in the palace.
Ask the guards to close the palace door.
"this……"
Are we the only outsiders in relationships?
"Everyone in the palace is the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty. They are all my confidants. There is nothing I cannot know!" Zhu Qiyu said lightly.
These words made the officials in the palace feel warm in their hearts.
Yanda kowtowed: "I am sent by Jia Silan from Grand Master..."
He first told the conflict between the Great Khan and the Grand Master. It was the Grand Master who made the final decision in the Khan's court, but Mandulu united with the Young Master Naoyan Baolide and married his subordinate Tuoluo Gan, marrying their daughter to Huoshai, the son of Tuoluo Gan.
The names of these people gave Ming Dynasty courtiers a headache.
Because there had been no war for many years, Ming Dynasty was not familiar with the Tatars and did not even have intelligence.
To put it simply, Mantulu and Jiaslan started a power struggle and started attacking each other. Taishi Jiaslan was already at a disadvantage.
Qi Jia doesn't have Ye Xian's ability. If he wants each tribe to work for him, he has to spend money to buy them.
Gejia had no money, so he decided to cheat the Ming Dynasty into giving some rewards to bribe the Tatar tribe so that he could fight for them.
He even wanted to borrow troops from the Ming Dynasty.
That's why there was a proposal to pay tribute internally.
Zhu Qiyu smiled.
But in Yanda's eyes, it seemed like a devil's smile.
"Dear Khan, please listen to your servant!"
"The Grand Master is sincerely willing to embrace the Ming Dynasty!"
"As long as the Grand Master is in power and is willing to send a hostage to the Ming Dynasty, no, I have already brought the Grand Master's second son. This is the Grand Master's sincerity!"
"Moreover, the Grand Master can do the same for the hundred thousand horses that are presented to you as tribute!"
Yanda was trembling with fear.
"How to do it? Wait until Ge Jia wins before fulfilling the promise?" Zhu Qiyu asked. He was not interested in Ge Jia's son. Who knows whether it was true or not.
Even if it's true, what's the use? Can I exchange money?
"Great Khan, your wisdom is infinite..."
Zhu Qiyu interrupted Yanda's flattery.
Yanda said honestly: "Only when the Grand Master wins can I give you enough horses! But dear Tian Khan, the Grand Master can make a document..."
Zhu Qiyu interrupted him: "The white wolf with empty gloves has put it on my head!"
"It seems that the Tatars are not submissive!"
"There is no need to keep these envoys, just kill them all!"
"Let's all disperse!"
Zhu Qiyu stood up and left.
"The great Khan..."
Seeing that Zhu Qiyu had really left, Yanda screamed, but he was held down by the guards and dragged outside. A eunuch came out to deliver instructions.
The guards of the Ming Dynasty drew their swords out of their sheaths and slashed at the envoys!
"Ah!" Yanda saw the envoy being killed with his own eyes.
Emperor Ming was not kidding!
Not to scare him, but to really kill them all!
"Don't kill, don't kill, I have something to say to Tian Khan, I have something to say...that one cannot be killed, that one is the grand master's son!"
But no one listened to him. The grand master's son fell in a pool of blood, his face full of disbelief.
Don’t they all say that Han people are the most reasonable?
Why is this emperor so unreasonable?
When Yanda was dragged into the palace again, everyone was stunned.
Before coming, he was full of confidence, thinking that he could deceive the Ming Emperor by saying a few nice words. After all, in the eyes of the grassland people, the Ming people were all fat sheep, easy to deceive.
The Confucianism they studied is even more ridiculous. They want to turn people into saints and establish some kind of great harmony.
Even those who are proficient in Chinese find it ridiculous.
The grassland people always believe that strength is king. When you have strength, you have ambition. You will either kill your enemies or play to death yourself.
However, the scene outside the palace frightened Yanda.
Of the three hundred-member mission, more than one hundred people were killed!
The brave prairie warrior was slaughtered like a lamb. He didn't even dare to think about it.
"Pass on my word, kill one every other breath! I want to hear the screams!"
Zhu Qiyu was not allowed to open the palace door. The spring was biting and he was afraid of the cold.
The guards could only drag the Tatars and kill them at the entrance of the palace.
"Great Khan, please don't kill your loyal herdsmen..."
"Shut up!"
Zhu Qiyu suddenly shouted: "Where are you loyal? Don't insult the word loyalty! Playing tricks with Tian Khan? Think you are smart? You have to pay the price!"
Yanda kowtowed humbly: "Before leaving, the Grand Master prepared a thousand horses and two thousand sheep and placed them in the Aohan tribe. Please send someone to receive them!"
"Why not bring Daming directly?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Because the target is too big, I dare not bring it rashly."
"I think you want to keep it for yourself!"
Zhu Qiyu's face was gloomy: "Facing the gods on the grassland, you are not sincere at all, I will give you heaven's punishment!"
"Go on and pour water!"
"Ah?" Yanda rubbed his belly. If he drank it again, his belly would be really broken.
"Fill!"
Zhu Qiyu was not satisfied with a thousand horses at all, and Aohan was far away from Liaodong Town. It was really not worth sending troops deep into the grassland for just a few horses and sheep.
Originally, he thought he could rip him off, but someone came up with nothing and tried to rip him off Zhu Qiyu!
"Don't bully me to death. Tomorrow I will go hunting. The prey will be Tatars. All of them will be eaten. Throw them into the hunting ground and I will hunt them myself!" Zhu Qiyu was extremely indignant.
Yanda was still begging for mercy, but Zhu Qiyu was too lazy to listen and killed him happily.
"No food for them tonight!"
Zhu Qiyu returned to Qinzheng Hall and was too lazy to talk nonsense.
The ministers did not dare to persuade him, because the emperor was very angry.
If the Tatars die, just die. It's useless anyway, and the Tatars don't dare to attack the Ming Dynasty!
Noon the next day.
After the morning court, Zhu Qiyu dressed in military uniform, accompanied by Liang Yue, Fang Ying, Song Wei, Li Jin, Chen Shao and others, set off for Nanyuan.
Nanyuan is also Shanglin Garden, which dates back to the Liao and Jin Dynasties and was the royal hunting ground.
Taizong, Xuanzong, and the Supreme Emperor all had a special liking for Nanyuan, and hunting and martial arts in Nanyuan became a rule that has been followed to this day.
But the prey being hunted today was different, they were all humans.
They are all Tatars.
"Khan, the two countries are fighting each other without killing the envoy!" Yanda was dying and was one of today's prey.
In order to make them lose their attack power, they were all killed.
Wang Wen was worried that these strong prairie men would hurt the emperor, so he cut his ankles and wrists so that he could not use force.
Lifu drove them into the mountains and forests to hide.
Snapped!
Zhu Qiyu raised his whip and whipped Yanda on the body: "Two countries? The Tatars are the vassal princes and my servants! What does it mean if I kill a few servants? Even if I drive the vassal marquis and his whole family to kill, you How dare you refuse the great Khan?"
"Hahaha, drive him aside, and finally I will shoot him myself!"
Zhu Qiyu patted his horse and started running.
There are horse-breeding troops, bodyguards, and personal retinues. There are nine armies outside, newly trained regiments and camps, and tens of thousands of retinues of the emperor.
call out!
Zhu Qiyu drew his bow and shot an arrow, and heard a scream.
"Hit! Your Majesty!" Li Jin shouted.
"Hahaha, have you shot him to death?" Although Zhu Qiyu is not good at hunting, he is very unstable when riding a horse and shooting a bow.
But I can’t stand someone praising me.
Li Jin personally dragged Xukou over and secretly stabbed him with an arrow, killing him.
"Your Majesty's marksman is a sure shot!" Li Jin praised.
"good!"
Zhu Qiyu was a little excited: "Everyone can hunt. If I win the prize, Master Yu will escort the horses back to the capital. I will bring a thousand horses. The one who hunts the most today will get the thousand horses. How about that?"
Li Jin, Liang Yue and others had blazing eyes.
"We only count these drives, not the livestock hunted. The one who hunts more wins, no restrictions on means!"
"Today, they are not lambs, but your spoils of war!"
Zhu Qiyu laughed wildly: "My sons, let's kill!"
Zhu Qiyu also had good intentions in using Tatars to bring blood to these new recruits.
He also wanted to gallop, but the problem was that his thighs hurt and he couldn't kill them all by himself.
call out!
Zhu Qiyu set another arrow. The Tatar man spoke incomprehensible bird language, obviously cursing the emperor.
"Don't move, I'll shoot you again!"
The Tatar man lay on the ground, his hands and feet useless, and he was allowed to be killed.
call out!
An arrow missed his target and hit him in the back, and he continued to curse.
It took seven or eight arrows to kill him.
Zhu Qiyu saw the way out. These Tatars were all crippled and could not run or jump. Suddenly, their spirits waned.
Because he rode very slowly, Li Fu sent people to him and asked him to shoot him.
It's like saying that everyone is cooperating with his acting.
His enthusiasm waned.
Return to camp.
Yanda was tied to a tree, looking miserable.
"Bring up my royal bow!"
Zhu Qiyu stood up, took his bow and shot an arrow, aiming at Yanda.
"Your Majesty Tian Khan...ah!" Yanda was so frightened that he closed his eyes.
That arrow was set at his feet.
Looking further up, the emperor is heading towards him!
Fortunately, the accuracy was wrong, otherwise it would have been set through.
This is not the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty, he is obviously the tyrant of the grassland! The bad taste has reached this level! Do the scholars in the Chinese dynasty just ignore it?
call out!
Another arrow came and missed again!
When Yanda saw that Zhu Qiyu was determined to shoot him, he immediately became furious and said, "Emperor Ming Dynasty, I am irreconcilable with you!"
He can't pretend anymore. Damn it, God Khan, you are a weak and wise dog emperor!
When I call you Tian Khan, I am giving you a high hat!
It’s okay if you don’t know how to praise me. If you want to kill or behead me, a man from the grassland won’t frown... But where are you going?
"Don't move! I won't give up until I trap him today!"
Zhu Qiyu is also popular.
You must wear your burden!
call out!
The arrow pierced his thigh!
"Ah!" Yanda screamed. The emperor's bow was unique, not powerful and could not penetrate deeply.
He looked down and trembled all over. It was so close!
Just a little bit close, I got it!
Looking at the emperor again, he drew up his crossbow again.
call out!
An arrow flew over and his whole body was in bad shape.
The other leg was hit!
Now he suddenly came up with a strange idea, it would be better to hit the target with one arrow, and die early and be reborn.
"No! No more!"
When Yanda saw the emperor drawing his bow again, he immediately went crazy!
"Great Khan, please give your servant a little... ah!" Yanda lowered his head and saw that he was hit by an arrow again in his leg!
Which arrow is it?
Can the emperor be more accurate and die early and be born early?
"Tian Khan, I am of use to you! It is useful!" Yanda shouted in horror.
Zhu Qiyu took aim: "What's the use?"
"My ministers know the Tatars, and all the ministers of the Tatar tribes know...ah!" Yanda was tricked again!
Sour and refreshing!
"I'm not interested in Tatar. What's there to care about in those remote and remote places? Don't move. I'll definitely win this time!"
call out!
The arrow flew away.
Yanda didn't want to scream anymore, his thigh was almost bruised, it hurt so much.
Zhu Qiyu moved his shoulders and asked someone to bring up the crossbow. He was too tired to pull the bow, and his accuracy was poor because of insufficient arm strength.
It would be much better to use a crossbow instead.
"Don't move, I will definitely hit this time!" Zhu Qiyu aimed his crossbow.
"My servant is useful!"
Yanda shouted in horror: "I have a map of the grassland for the Khan of Heaven!"
"Map? Is there really one?" Zhu Qiyu put away his crossbow, but he did not expect an unexpected surprise.
"Yes, yes!"
Yanda nodded repeatedly and said that he had a grassland map in his head.
call out!
Yanda suddenly screamed!
The device is worn!
With an arrow stuck in it!
Hit the target! Absolutely amazing!
The delay was painful at first, then panic, and finally turned into despair. That cannot be repaired!
"Seeing that you are still useful, I will send the clothes bureau to the palace to serve you."
"Anyway, the map is in your mind. Draw it slowly."
"I believe in you, and it is your honor to let you serve the Heavenly Khan personally!"
"Isn't it? My servant?"
Zhu Qiyu put down his crossbow and looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.
Yanda was dumbfounded. After all, he still wanted to thank you? Do you want to eat shit?
"Great Khan, please accept your loyal servant!" Yanda didn't want to thank him, but the key emperor raised his crossbow again!
If another arrow hits me, it will hurt...
"Hahaha!"
"Did you see that? Tatars are cheap!"
"It's useless to talk to them and discuss it!"
"This is the only thing that works! Hahaha!"
"Keep this thing here. If foreign missions come in the future, take them to see it first!" Zhu Qiyu asked someone to hold the crossbow, sit on a stool, and take a sip of tea.
According to the emperor's instructions, it was cut directly.
Yanda kept screaming.
Lifu thought Yanda's screams were too harsh, so he had his mouth covered and dragged down for treatment.
Then, announce Lin Cong, Li Xian and others.
Hu Xi was not feeling well today, so he was not allowed to drive with him.
"What do you think?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Your Majesty, I believe that we must remain unchanged to cope with all changes."
Wang Zhi was the first to speak: "Wala was crippled by our army and the Tatars were in civil strife. This gave Ming Dynasty precious time to recuperate. We should close the door and develop ourselves."
Li Xian had a different opinion: "Your Majesty, I believe that we should send an envoy to Oara and Tatar."
"Go on!" Zhu Qiyu became interested.
"Oala was defeated. We, the Ming Dynasty, were the victors. We should force Oala to surrender and pay tribute."
"As for the Tatars, they are still determined to destroy our Ming Dynasty. It is time to take this opportunity to plow their sweaty courts, break up the Tatars, and completely eliminate the worries in the north."
"I think that I, the Ming Dynasty, should take a two-pronged approach and attack Oara and Tatar at the same time, once and for all!"
Li Xian said anxiously.
Didn't you see it? Li Xian is still a militant!
Wait, something's wrong!
Li Xian wanted to transfer my eyes from domestic to foreign countries, using tiles and tartar as nails for me to touch.
When I hit the nail on the head and realize the pain, and then want to return to the country to rectify the situation, the resistance I face will be thousands of times greater than now!
What a trick, Li Xian!
The most cunning thing is that Li Xian did not say it directly, but asked Wang Zhi to speak first and then opposed Wang Zhi.
Pick yourself clean.
Smart man.
"Your Majesty, although we have won the battle, it is mostly due to luck. At present, stability is still the priority. Shandong and Huguang are not yet stable, and Ning Fan is eager to try. I believe that stability is the priority."
Wang Wen glared at Li Xian, "You can't push Daming into the fire pit just to divert His Majesty's attention!"
Mobei is a bottomless pit!
It's not that the grassland people are very powerful, but they can run and can't find anyone. When the Ming Dynasty retreats, they come back.
Taizong's several northern expeditions were all a waste of money and food, and he could not find any enemies.
Unless the Ming Dynasty can take root on the grassland, it will just be chasing and fighting. People are lost and cannot be found. When the Ming army withdraws, they come back again.
"Master Wang, this is the best opportunity to sweep across Mobei!" Li Xian said seriously.
"Where is the money and food? Where does it come from?" Wang Wen asked.
Li Xian glanced at the emperor.
Hundreds of officials in the court returned the embezzled money to their internal funds, and the emperor's internal funds were estimated to exceed seven million taels of silver.
If real estate is included, it must be more than eight million taels!
The emperor had never been so rich.
The Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion, the Horse Army, the Guard Army, and the regimental camp are all expanding their troops. They are all effective, and they are estimated to be 50,000 people.
It would be great to have soldiers and food, take them out and consume them.
Wang Wen glared at Li Xian, "You are the only one who is too evil-minded!"
Zhu Qiyu was really thinking, if the money is gone, he can make more money. Anyway, there are many fat sheep in the world. If he can really take the opportunity to sweep Mobei, he will really make a lot of money.
But after we conquer it, how can we take root in the grassland?
He didn't want to be as useless as Taizong, fighting one war in exchange for twenty years of peace. Such a war would be meaningless.
"Wang Wei, what do you think?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Your Majesty, I may or may not fight if I think I can!"
Wang Wei said seriously: "The reason for not fighting is that although one of the Oara tribes is gone, there are still two, and their strength has not been compromised. Moreover, to the west, there are other Oara tribes, such as Hami and other countries. If you are a vassal state of Wala Fan and really want to recruit troops, you can absolutely do so."
"Although there is a coup in Tatar, the minister is worried that once the Ming army penetrates into Mobei, the Tatars will quickly quell the political chaos and become monolithic. Instead, our army will promote the unification of the Tatars, and the gains will outweigh the losses."
"Moreover, we also need to include Wuliangha. If our army defeats Wala or Tatar, the one who will benefit the most is Wuliangha. After Wuliangha is absorbed and annexed, it is very likely to become the new Wala and Tatar, and then become the new country of Wala and Tatar. My Ming Dynasty has a serious problem!"
Wang Wei spoke clearly and clearly.
Mobei is part of the Three Kingdoms. If we want to attack it, we must weaken it at the same time.
Otherwise, we have to find a way to take root in the grassland and turn the grassland into Han land.
"Wei Chen said that it's okay to fight."
"Because our army has the power of victory, it is more than enough to fight another victorious battle after leaving the border."
"However, it is just a few inconsequential victories. It cannot determine the situation in Mobei."
Wang Wei persuaded the emperor in a roundabout way not to fight.
The reason why they spoke boldly was because Zhu Qiyu, who had regained the imperial power, became very talkative. As long as he asked, his ministers said what they said was meaningful, and even if they offended him, he would not be angry.
The emperor encouraged free speech.
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "Wang Qing is a great talent!"
Li Xian was a little unhappy that Wang Wei ruined his good deeds.
"Wang Qing, please tell me, how did the Ming Dynasty take root in the grassland? In other words, how do I rule the grassland?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Li Xian rolled his eyes, do you really think you are the Khan of Heaven?
Your Majesty, what does it mean to be the Khan of Heaven? Look at the Tang Dynasty, the glorious Tang Dynasty, but it was finally destroyed by the hands of foreigners. How regrettable!
In the final analysis, it was because the prosperous Tang Dynasty did not distinguish between Hu and Han, used Hu to control Hu, and gave Hu people military power, which led to the Anshi Rebellion.
Non-my family, its heart must be different!
"Wei Chen thinks that with money and grain in one hand and a sword and ax in the other, His Majesty can become the king of the grassland!"
Wang Wei said seriously: "But when the Celestial Empire loses money and food, the grasslands will break away from the Celestial Empire; if the Celestial Empire loses their swords and axes, the barbarians will take over the Central Plains and become the emperor of the Central Plains! This is an eternal truth!"
"Isn't there a permanent solution?" Zhu Qiyu couldn't figure out how the Qing Dynasty managed the grassland.
"Yes! Assimilate!"
Wang Weidao: "During the years of rule, we will quickly Chineseize it, abandon its original traditions, destroy its writing and history, and let the new children become Ming people!"
"I estimate that given the size of Mobei, it will take at least two hundred years for complete assimilation!"
Zhu Qiyu rolled his eyes, you might as well just say, give up!
The Ming and Qing Dynasties were engaged in assimilating Mongolia. It took more than five hundred years to assimilate Mongolia only to Monan.
But after Mobei broke away from the Tatars, why was it quickly assimilated by polar bears? Have times changed? Or other reasons?
firearm!
Yes, Wang Wei came to the conclusion by looking back on history, so it has limitations.
History is the age of cold weapons, but with the development of firearms, it is completely different. You can rule the grasslands with firearms, money and food, and you will definitely succeed!
"Hahaha!"
Zhu Qiyu suddenly laughed: "What Wang Qing said is true. It will take two hundred years for complete assimilation, but I can wait. The Ming Dynasty inherited the Yuan Dynasty, and the Oara, Tatar, and Uuliangha people are all descendants of Chinese Miao. I can wait for them to slowly assimilation!"
Li Xian glanced at the hunting ground. Is this how you treat "your own people"?
That mouth of yours can really fool people.
"Two capitals and thirteen provinces are too small!"
"The Ming Dynasty inherited the Yuan system, but the land was only as small as the territory of the Han family!"
"Annan is also lost..."
"That's all, let's not mention these sad topics. Let's talk about it. I plan to take the opportunity to regain the Hetao and use the Hetao as the gateway to guard against Mobei and Xifan."
"What do you think?"
Zhu Qiyu asked.
Li Xian shook his head directly: "Your Majesty, the Loop is in ruins and cannot support many people."
"If we use water transport, how will we transport food during the freezing period and winter?"
"If you can't house the people, you can't raise an army."
"Your Majesty, I know your Majesty's ambition to regain the world. However, Hexi and Hetao are no longer what they were during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. They are too dilapidated and cannot support too many people."
Li Xian smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty can plant a variety of trees in Shanshan, protect the water and soil, and slowly nourish them. After many years, Shanshan may regain the glory of the Tang Dynasty. That will be the day when I, the Ming Dynasty, will return to Hexi!"
Wang Wen, Lin Cong and others nodded and agreed with Li Xian's words.
"Bai Gui, what do you think?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Wei Chen agrees with what Mr. Li Ge said. It is not difficult to regain lost territory. It is rare to govern. Even if the court is better off now and can sustain it for a few years, it will still have to give up after a few years." Bai Gui said bluntly.
food!
What restricted the development of Ming Dynasty was the food problem!
"What if I can solve the food problem?" Zhu Qiyu looked around at the ministers.
"If food is not a problem, Your Majesty, let alone Mobei, it won't matter even if the Great Yuan territory is restored!"
Li Xian smiled.
"Your Majesty, food is the most important thing. The reason why Yuan Dynasty ruled such a vast territory was because there were few people and the Mongols were not good at governing. They liked killing. They massacred cities wherever they went, often killing thousands of miles of uninhabited areas. That's why they Rule over such a huge territory.”
Bai Gui said seriously: "But I am not the Ming Dynasty. My Ming Dynasty is good at governance. Everywhere I go, I will adopt a gentle policy. The people will flourish in a few years. But when the population is large, there will not be enough food." ”
"So the Central Plains dynasty is rich, while the Hu people are poor."
"Shilang Bai's words make sense. Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty only relied on two capitals and thirteen provinces, but it became the most prosperous and prosperous country in the world. This is all because of the diligence and intensive cultivation of the Ming people."
Lu Yuan said: "But the Hu people were careless and thought that they would conquer the country immediately, so they wanted to conquer the country immediately. In the end, they were in a mess and withdrew from the Central Plains in despair."
The implication of Lu Yuan's words is that if Han people have surplus food, they will have children like crazy. After a few years, there will be too many children and there will still not be enough food.
Therefore, he was admonishing the emperor that other lands in the world were barren and it was enough for the emperor to focus on the two capitals and thirteen provinces.
The Central Plains Dynasty lasted for two hundred years. This is the reason. There were too many people to support.
"Everything you said makes sense."
Zhu Qiyu said slowly: "Send the order to various places to search for plants that can be planted, and transport them all to Beijing. I will cultivate them myself!"
"If the Ming Dynasty doesn't have any, you can trade with Xifan. As long as they have crops, get them for me no matter how much it costs!"
"Cabinet, hereby declares!"
"Officials from all over the world are looking for me. Those who can't be found will be demoted and included in the next Beijing inspection. Do you understand?"
Zhu Qiyuhan said with a face: "If you find it, this crop can be eaten and widely planted, and you can be given a golden talisman!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
All the officials kowtowed.
Finding new crops and promoting their planting is what the Holy Emperor should do.
Of course, if there were edible crops, someone would have donated them long ago.
If the emperor is willing to do anything, let him do it.
Zhu Qiyu actually wanted to find corn, but he didn’t know if corn had been introduced to the Ming Dynasty. Anyway, the Franji people must have it.
"I will give the order to the merchants again, that those who donate crops will have one of their sons admitted to the imperial examination!" Zhu Qiyu's move was quite cruel.
Those who frequently do business with Xifan are smugglers. If they are given an official position, it may be able to stimulate their enthusiasm.
"Your Majesty, where did the merchants get the crops?" the foolish Yu Shan said.
I regretted it after saying it.
Seeing other officials bowing their heads and saying nothing, it was obvious that this was a hornet's nest and they knew it tacitly.
He probably just lied to the emperor!
Little did they know, the emperor knew what was going on.
This is a bit embarrassing, and what's even more embarrassing is that it was exposed by some fool.
"You will know when they get it. Don't underestimate the power of businessmen. If there are three times the profit, the businessmen will go crazy."
Zhu Qiyu finished his words.
Li Jin and Liang Yue came excitedly to report their merits.
The two hunted the same number of people and tied for first place.
"Okay! You two will each be rewarded with five hundred war horses!"
Zhu Qiyu was in a good mood, so he asked the ministers to retreat and summoned Fang Ying, Liang Jue, Song Jie, Song Wei, and Li Jin for questioning.
"Fang Ying, please tell me about the recruitment situation first."
Fang Ying presented a memorial with deletions and deletions. It was obviously written over many years, a bit like a diary.
Zhu Qiyu frowned: "How come we only recruited more than 30,000 people?"
Fang Ying glanced at Liang Yue and Song Jie.
"Your Majesty, during this period, more than 250,000 refugees have gathered in the capital, and the best of the best have been selected. In addition, the recruitment office is not located here, so we have recruited so many soldiers."
Zhu Qiyu understood that Fang Ying connoted Liang Yue, Song Jie and Li Jin.
The Nine Admirals' Mansion, the bodyguard army, and the horse army must also survive and eliminate the fittest, eliminate a group of old and weak, and then recruit some from the refugees.
Especially in the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion, Zhu Qiyu promised Liang Yue to recruit troops at will.
At that time, Zhu Qiyu believed that all the Jingyinghui would die in Xuanzhen.
So conscription was opened.
As a result, Yu Qian gave him a big surprise, and Jingying suffered little loss.
"How many have you conquered?" Zhu Qiyu asked Liang Yue.
"His Majesty, Weichen recruited 14,000 people, and the real amount of the Governor's Government was 25,000!"
Liang Yan uses a word, real.
Zhu Qiyu nodded with satisfaction and asked Song Jie and Li Jin.
The guards and the raising horses are mainly to eliminate the old and weak.
They have recruited some, not much.
There are 10,000 people in the real amount!
Zhu Qiyu is very satisfied with this result.
Suddenly, the words turn!
"Here, I can't make my army bad, drinking soldiers or something, I persuaded Er and other to stop early.
"Start today!"
"If I know it in the future, I can't touch my head when I touch my head."
"Chen and others are definitely not dare!" Fang Ying and others knelt on the ground, sweating cold forehead.
The emperor knocked them, don't fight.
I just have a wings. If anyone fights, I will hurt my wings, so don't blame me.
Especially Fang Ying, he first provoked contradictions, containing sand.
At this moment, trembling.
It's really accompanied by the king.
