It's not that Xu Huizu didn't want to do this, but he wanted to postpone it until next year. When the autumn taxes are delivered to the capital, everyone can discuss how to arrange the finances.
It is really not appropriate to touch the national treasury this year.
If there is a war between Daning and Datong, they will need to spend money. If they win, they will need rewards. If they lose, they will need to mobilize troops. It is unlikely that they will live in peace. At this time, all the money in the national treasury must be reserved for emergencies. How can there be money to take care of these people who have been wronged for many years.
Since I have been wronged for so many years, just adding a few more months is nothing.
What Xu Huizu considers is that in the overall situation, some people always need to be sacrificed.
Song Sheng understood Xu Huizu. As a general, it is inevitable to cherish the sergeants and win the morale of the army. However, at this juncture, judging from this year's household budget, it is really not appropriate to spend any more.
In fact, investigation documents from four provinces have been sent to the governor's office one after another, but Xu Huizu has been suppressing them and not reporting them.
Song Sheng looked at the sky and said, "What do you think about the Datong incident?"
Xu Huizu thought for a while, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "When I heard about Naadam, Kun Timur had instigated Mahamu and Hashiha, but Mahamu obviously did not dare to confront Hashiha. In this case, Hu Hui was sent If you go to work as a lobbyist, you will probably never come back."
Song Sheng's eyes were a little worried and he said softly: "Looking at the documents, this matter was planned by Yang Pu. This person is just a Hanlin official, but he actually won Guo Ying's joint signature in Datong. It's not easy. What I'm afraid of is that something will happen to Hu Hui. His official career is over."
Xu Huizu could only sigh helplessly.
Hu Hui was a general appointed by Zhu Yunwen himself, and he made Jianwen Newspaper a success in Shanxi. Now the capital is already preparing for Jianwen Newspaper. I believe that in the near future, this kind of newspaper will be available in thousands of households.
Now that Shanxi immigration is on track, with a large number of people moving eastward, Hu Hui's role in Shanxi is no longer significant. The Capital Jianwen Newspaper needs Hu Hui to take charge. If this person dies in Shanxi, Yang Pu will definitely be implicated.
"Now we can only see how they operate. What I'm worried about is not Datong, but Daning."
Xu Huizu looked to the north.
Song Sheng smiled and said: "The emperor received a document the day before. King Yan has led 12,000 cavalry out of the customs. This is already the entire elite cavalry of our dynasty on the line between Beiping and Jizhou. Cooperating with the Daning cavalry, not to mention the acquisition. No matter how successful the battle is, we can still be sure that Daning will not lose."
Xu Huizu's steps became lighter and he said: "Don't be careless. Neither Hashiha nor Alutai are simple people. King Yan's coming out of seclusion is a bit beyond my expectation. It seems that there are things we have not grasped. information."
Song Sheng recognized Xu Huizu’s analysis.
In the imperial court's established strategy, the main focus has always been on the interior of the pass. Even if Daning is defeated, it must be ensured that the Mongolian cavalry does not appear in Jizhou and does not enter the pass.
In other words, defending the Jizhou Wall without losing the first line is a grand strategy recognized by all officials of the imperial court.
However, when Zhu Yunwen conveyed his decree, he did not explicitly order Zhu Di to stay in the pass. Instead, he gave Zhu Di great trust and allowed Zhu Di to make decisions at the opportunity. Zhu Di relied on this to lead his troops out of Xifengkou.
Xu Huizu and others have no way of knowing what the situation in Daning is now. All they can do now is wait.
Not only Xu Huizu was waiting, but also Hu Hui, who couldn't sleep while standing on Datong City.
Yang Pu had already told the truth about his plan and told Hu Hui various coping strategies, but Hu Hui never came out to negotiate with Mahamu.
Hu Hui was very confused. She was only twenty-five years old this year. She only married her last year and her children were already in her mother's womb. What if she had to leave the prison and be left by Mahamu, leaving orphans and widows? live?
And even if he dies, the court will give him some pension, but it will only be the pension of the principal. It’s such a loss. At least he will get more pension if he is the minister of minister...
No, this is not about pensions, but about
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
It's a matter of life.
Hu Hui looked at the starry sky outside the pass, thinking that if he died there, no one would collect his body. With Mahamu's personality and Mongolian habits, he would not dig a hole to bury himself.
If you don't go, for yourself, for the sake of your wife and children, and for the sake of your parents, you will definitely not go. You will stay here until Mahamu comes home.
Making this decision is simple.
only!
Hu Hui felt uneasy and very uneasy.
What Yang Pu said is not unreasonable. This is an excellent opportunity to cause civil strife in Wala, and it is also an excellent opportunity to protect countless people in the Ming Dynasty. If we let it go, Wala will continue to threaten the Ming Dynasty, and the Japanese will do the same. Very upset.
When people are alive, sometimes they cannot only consider themselves and their families, but also have to consider more people and the country.
In a word, the reason why people are great is that they can sacrifice their ego for the sake of righteousness.
Martyrs of the Ming Dynasty, how many good men did not abandon their families and children and spill their blood on the battlefield? They also have wives, children, parents, and people they care about!
But for the country, for the family, and for the parents, wives and children behind you, one must not be afraid of sacrifice, and charge forward even though he knows he will die!
Go through fire and water, even to death!
This is a real man!
Hu Xi stared at a bright star, punched the wall of the crenellation, and made up his mind: "Prepare the horses, I will leave!"
Yang Pu came over, looked at Hu Hui deeply, and said: "This matter is indeed dangerous. Mahamu's character is difficult to understand. If you don't want to go, I won't force you."
Hu Xi paled as Yang Pu did, and said, "You should just be a human being."
After fooling yourself for a few days, you had already left the seclusion eighteen times in that time, but now you have calmed down, why did you go out so early? The most important thing is, why did you three mention my name, Hu Hui, when you were submitting documents to the court? Can I explain to the court if I don't go?
"Let me tell you first, if I really get out of the customs, my wife and children will be left to you!"
Hu Bi secretly gritted his teeth and explained the funeral arrangements.
Yang Pu patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, I will take good care of my sister-in-law. By the way, I heard that she is only eighteen years old this year. Can she remarry in the future..."
"Fuck you uncle!"
Hu Xi punched Yang Pu unceremoniously, then without looking, he got off the city wall, got on his horse, urged the horse to jump out of the moat, then turned back to look at Yang Pu on the wall, and shouted: "Fancy it." My wife, you told me earlier that you don’t need to kill me, or else I won’t go and let my wife remarry?”
Yang Pu picked up a stone and threw it down. Hu Hui ran out laughing.
Gu Yun looked at Hu Hui who was laughing and walking away in confusion, and asked Yang Pu: "Shouldn't he be depressed and lost? Why is he still so happy?"
Yang Pu's face became serious and he said, "Isn't it a happy thing to find someone worthy of entrusting your wife and children?"
The corner of Gu Yun's mouth twitched a little, and he finally asked: "Since he treats you as a brother, why do you still want to send him outside the customs?"
Yang Pu looked at Gu Yun and said seriously: "Because you don't know what he is capable of. If I go, I will definitely die. If he goes..."
"Foolproof?"
"No, narrow escape from death."
"I……"
Gu Yun couldn't wait to draw a knife. His fucking civil servants were so cruel to his own people. If he wanted to deal with a rough guy like him, why not just kill him? No, you can't deal with civil servants from now on. Anyone who messes with you will be hacked to death.
Hu Hao galloped on the grassland with his horse, his eyes were firm, and there was no fear at all. Instead, there was a faint excitement and excitement. When I live in this era, I must leave a lasting mark so that future generations will always remember my name, Hu Hui.
Life and death cannot be taken too seriously sometimes.
"who?"
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The patrolman spotted Hu Hu and shouted loudly.
Hu Xi grabbed the reins and shouted loudly: "Go and inform your leader Mahamu that Hu Xi, the envoy of Datong, is coming to visit and ask him to come out to receive you!"
Strong!
Insolent!
The patrolman was also startled by Hu Xi's attitude and couldn't figure out who Hu Xi was. However, since he was from Datong, he probably negotiated either surrender or Mahamu's retreat. Either way, One thing is true:
Daming is here to bring warmth.
The patrolman didn't waste any time, he called others to take his place, and then he personally led Hu Hui to run for more than ten miles before arriving at Mahamu's camp.
Hu Xi looked at Mahamu's camp by the starlight and couldn't help but secretly take a breath of air.
The entire camp looked very neat, like four-sided military formations, arranged very regularly, showing order. Walking into it and observing carefully, you can even see that the distance between the yurts is ten steps, no more, no less!
"What a formidable enemy!"
Hu Xi felt a little heavy in her heart.
Observed from the Mahamu Camp, it is possible to achieve this step, if it is not an iron-fisted method, it is because the people's hearts have been united to the extreme. In any case, Mahamu is by no means an ordinary person, and can even be said to have unimaginable ambitions.
If this person were alive, he would definitely be a hidden danger to the Ming Dynasty!
The worry in Hu Xi's eyes slowly receded. The most important thing now is to meet Mahamu and let him and Hashiha fight each other. No matter who wins, Wala's power will be damaged.
Mahamu did not sleep, but was reading a book on war in the big tent. He was still reading "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu. He was writing to make some notes when he heard that the Ming Dynasty had sent an envoy, so he ordered him to be brought into the big tent.
"Hu Hui, the head of the Propaganda Department of the Ming Dynasty, and Hu Hui, the envoy of Datong, have met the leader."
Hu Hui bowed slightly as a salute.
Mahamu looked at Hu Bi, closed the book, and asked: "If I remember correctly, the guard of Datong is Guo Ying."
"That's right."
Hu Xi replied.
Mahamu asked again: "So, you are Guo Ying's envoy, not the Ming Dynasty's envoy?"
Hu Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, this was a fatal question.
Guo Ying's envoys can only represent Guo Ying himself, that is, the affairs of Datong. He lied and deceived, and the Ming court had no need to recognize him. But if they are envoys from the Ming Dynasty, they have the endorsement of the imperial court and are guaranteed by the credibility of the Ming Dynasty. They cannot engage in any conspiracy.
Hu Xi looked at the somewhat arrogant Mahamu, and simply let go, kicked the wooden block beside him, sat down directly, and asked: "Does the leader want to be the leader of Wala, or does he just want to be a Choros?" The leader of the department?”
Mahamu was a little surprised. The young man in front of him was not afraid of him and was so courageous!
"Let's serve tea."
Mahamu did not stop Zhewuduo, Yuezhe and others from trying to deal with Hu Min, but instead gave orders.
Hu Hui looked at them filling tea in large black porcelain bowls, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful: "This tea is good tea, but it's a pity that it was put in the wrong place. If you can make a difference, it would be a great idea to change the tea cup."
Mahamu shook his head, reached out and knocked on the big black porcelain bowl, and said: "Some exquisite porcelain is too easy to distract people. Tea is just for drinking. Only you Han people pay so much attention to it."
Hu Xi looked at Mahamu and said softly: "Han people pay attention to etiquette and form, but Mongolian people also pay attention to status, don't they? Some people are born aristocrats, while some people can only be stepped on by others and regarded as Ants."
"Tell me, why are you here?"
Mahamu asked.
Hu Hu blew on the hot tea and said calmly: "I came here to ask Chief Ma how long an ant can survive if it is stepped on by someone."
