Wuying Palace.
Mrs. Fu and Fu Lin entered the hall to salute. Zhu Yunwen came out from behind the table, stepped forward to help Mrs. Fu, and said with a bit of self-blame: "Fu An was sent as an envoy. Although he has not returned for nine years, he is still My envoys and officials mishandled the situation, causing you trouble, and it is all my fault."
Mrs. Fu was so frightened that she didn't even dare to say anything.
Fu Lin never expected that the dignified emperor would admit his fault in person. Hasn’t it always been important that the emperor is infallible?
admire!
After many years, Fu Lin felt for the first time that the court was not useless. At least Zhu Yunwen was a humane person and a monarch who dared to take responsibility.
Zhu Yunwen arranged for someone to serve tea, then sat back and said, "Fu Lin, right?"
"The grassroots are here."
Fu Lin quickly stood up.
Zhu Yunwen raised his hand and said: "Sit down, I have read the memorial you asked someone to forward. I have no objection to you wanting to go to the Western Regions to find your father. It is just looking for Fu An. It is not your business alone, but the Ming Dynasty's business." All sergeants are our Ming Dynasty's national affairs. The dignified Ming Dynasty envoys should never be forgotten. If envoy Fu suffers a disaster, his loyal soul bones should also be buried in our Han family grave. If he is still alive, the Ming Dynasty will welcome him back at any cost. !”
"The common people thank the Emperor!"
Fu Lin was very excited.
Mrs. Fu couldn't help but shed tears. After hearing such words, many years of grievances were finally swept away.
Zhu Yunwen was sure that Fu An was still alive at this time, but he did not tell Fu and Fu Lin.
In Zhu Yunwen's view, making Fu An's affairs bigger will be beneficial to stimulating military morale and defeating Timur. He can also use this as an excuse to pursue Timur through the Alashan Pass and the Ili Valley when he marches into the Western Regions in the future. , forcing Timur to hand over Fu An and other people who were sent as envoys. If the time comes, it is not impossible to allow Zhu Di to go to Samarkand and bring back some Central Asian specialties.
It is really hard to say whether Fu An will be killed in this process. It is better not to give them hope in the first place than to give them hope now and be disappointed later.
Zhu Yunwen looked at Fu Lin, who was strong and powerful, and said: "The Ming Dynasty governs the country with benevolence and filial piety. If you are determined to find your father, I cannot deny it. In this case, I will appoint you as a traveler and a deputy envoy to the Western Regions to recruit Hami." Wait for the people of the Western Region to investigate Fu An’s traces and news.”
Fu Lin thanked him again.
Zhu Yunwen hosted a banquet, which attracted the attention of Fu and Fu Lin. After they walked out of the palace as if in a dream and looked back at the palace wall, they realized that everything was true.
Zhou Zhixin and Wang Quanzhen were waiting for Fu and Fu Lin outside the palace gate. When they saw the two people walking out, they hurriedly stepped forward to inquire. They were delighted to see that the emperor had already agreed.
"cough."
A cough disturbed the laughter of several people.
Wang Quanzhen, Fu Lin and others looked at the visitor with doubts on their faces. Zhou Zhixin saw the person coming clearly, his expression changed, he stepped forward to protect Fu and others, and said, "Commander Liu, is there something wrong?"
Liu Changge glanced at Zhou Zhixin coldly, and said to Fu and Fu Lin: "Your home outside the city is gone, and you can't go back."
Fu Shi and Fu Lin were shocked.
Zhou Zhixin was even more furious: "Liu Changge, the emperor thinks highly of the Fu family. He just held a banquet in Wuying Hall. How dare you destroy his home. If you don't impeach me, I will not be a minister!"
Liu Changge took off a package from his shoulder, threw it to Fu Lin, and looked at Zhou Zhixin indifferently: "Impeach me? Haha, you are brave enough."
"Don't leave! I'll take you to see the emperor right now!"
Zhou Zhixin wanted to catch up, but a guard reached out to stop Zhou Zhixin, and then walked away expressionlessly.
"hateful!"
Zhou Zhixin gritted his teeth.
Fu Lin opened the package and was stunned. Inside was a stack of brand-new Ming Dynasty banknotes. Judging from the characters and color, they were all consistent banknotes. There is also a house deed inside, which is located in Zhongcheng near Jinchuan Gate.
"This is……"
Mrs. Fu looked at it with a confused look on her face.
Zhou Zhixin looked at this scene and suddenly realized that Liu Changge did not demolish the Fu family's home, but moved it for them.
"Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace."
Fu and Fu Lin understood, knelt outside the palace gate and kowtowed three times, and then got up. Zhou Zhixin and Wang Quanzhen accompanied them and sent them into the new house. Seeing that everything was properly arranged and there was a maid, they felt relieved.
Officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs were busy for several days, but they only found the files of more than 200 people including Fu An and Sun Liang. The files of more than 1,000 other people were missing. After all, it was nine years ago, during the Hongwu Dynasty. Officials came and went, so it is normal for some information to be lost.
While Zhu Yunwen issued orders to find and comfort the families of these envoys, he devoted himself to the northwest military strategy.
In terms of military affairs, Zhu Yunwen was too inferior to Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang had a genius military vision and superb combat ideas. He could prepare a complete combat plan by himself, such as three-way attack, feint attack, auxiliary attack and main attack. Zhu Yuanzhang could do it at his fingertips. But Zhu Yunwen couldn't do it.
It is easy to draw on a map and come up with a military strategy, but whether it can be implemented and whether it is consistent with reality is another matter. Some people are so self-righteous that they dare to talk about the details of the battle with a map, including who to meet in the east, who to fight in the west, who to attack in the north, and what to do in the south. But when they actually do it, they are just another Zhao Kuo.
Zhu Yunwen did not want to be like Zhao Kuo, he only focused on the results of the strategy, and left all tactical arrangements to the generals. When Zhang Fu attacked Annan, Zhu Yunwen did not interfere with how Zhang Fu should attack, where to attack first, where to attack later, how to pursue, and where to camp. Zhu Quan and Zhu Di launched a surprise attack on Qiaoba Mountain, but Zhu Yunwen only gave permission and did not interfere with their military operations.
It was the same this time. Zhu Yunwen participated in military strategy and only focused on strategy. He considered issues around the grand strategy of defeating Timur and seeking the Western Region. As for how Zhu Di, Xu Huizu and others discussed the battle and the specific battle arrangements, Zhu Yunwen only expressed his opinions. No intervention will be given.
Military chess deductions are held every other day in the Wuying Palace. During the deduction, various possible problems are simulated. During the deduction, combat deployment, combat processes, logistics support, etc. are simulated to identify problems and then arrange for the Beijing army to do so. Conduct practical exercises to test the effectiveness of the deduction.
Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye it was the day of departure.
On February 2, the dragon raises its head.
Benefit from sending troops.
Zhu Yunwen went to the teaching ground to review the Beijing army.
Xie Jin stood in front and read loudly the Ming Dynasty's war message against Timur's empire: "In the west there is Timur, lame and war-like. He has been fighting on the battlefield for more than thirty years, destroying dozens of countries, slaughtering countless people, cruel and violent, people The gods are all angry. Previously, Fu An, the envoy of the Ming Dynasty, led more than a thousand people on an envoy under the order of Taizu. He was enslaved along with him. Fu An’s life and death are unknown to this day! Now Timur wants to raise his sword and march eastward to take China and kill my people. , slave to my wife, can you agree?"
"cannot!"
the sergeant roared.
"Can I agree?"
"cannot!"
The noise returned.
"Can Daming agree?"
"cannot!"
The sound reaches the sky!
Jie Jin's voice was a little hot. Zhu Yunwen's ability to inspire people was really extraordinary. He continued to read: "The great Ming Dynasty and the vast China. I raise warriors to defend my territory and protect our mountains and rivers! He, Timur, wants to be the great Ming Dynasty and the great country. Yuan, then I will settle old and new grudges with him. I order that King Zhu Di of Yan will be the commander-in-chief and wear the seal of the General of Zhengxi, Duke Xu Hui of Wei will wear the seal of Deputy General of Zhengxi, and he will be the right deputy general, and Song Sheng will wear the deputy general of Zhengxi. Yin is the deputy general on the left! He Fu and Tan Yuan are the generals on the left, Qu Neng and Mao Zheng are the generals on the right..."
"In the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing opened up the Hexi Corridor and opened up the Western Regions. Now I have fierce generals like clouds, wise ministers like stars, a hundred thousand warriors, and a hundred thousand good men. How can I not be as good as the distant Han Dynasty?! The enemy's soldiers want to swallow up our land. We should attack head-on! A powerful enemy who invades our country will be killed no matter how far away!"
"A powerful enemy who invades our country will be killed no matter how far away he is!"
The sound of the Beijing army spread to heaven and earth.
Zhu Di's blood was boiling and his face was a little hot. That's right, if a powerful enemy invades China, he will be killed no matter how far away he is! I, the Ming Dynasty sergeant, will never lose to any enemy! If you want to eat Ming Dynasty, Timur, when you are old, are you not afraid of breaking all your teeth? !
"war!"
"war!"
"war!"
Flags are flying and morale is like a rainbow!
Zhu Yunwen looked at these sergeants proudly, walked to the front of the high platform, and shouted loudly: "In front of you is the distant northwest battlefield, and behind you are your parents, wives, children, family, and country! Now is the time for you to defend your home and country. I am here, together with your family, looking forward to your achievements and waiting for your triumphant return! The great soldiers and generals of the Ming Dynasty will go to war for the sun, moon, mountains and rivers, and for the prosperous age of the Ming Dynasty!"
"For His Majesty, I will share my worries and solve my problems; for the Ming Dynasty, I will wrap my body in horse leather!"
Zhu Di knelt down on one knee and held his head high to receive the order.
"Go to war!"
The flag is raised, the national flag and the handsome flag are hunted.
Zhu Yunwen watched the 100,000 Beijing troops slowly leave the capital and send them all the way to the outside of the city. He clenched his fists tightly as he looked at the countless people who lined the streets to see them off.
Gone, gone!
They will go to the Western Region more than five thousand miles away and face the most powerful war madman in the world. How many of them left and could never come back, how many of them had to pay their lives for the country!
Will history remember them?
The endless wind and sand, the vast Gobi sea, and the countless sand and dust blowing through, are they the dust of life?
However, even though they are dust, they still constitute the main body of the Western Region.
History may forget them, but their descendants should not forget, they should not forget, and Ming Dynasty should not forget!
Xie Jin and Yu Xin, who had returned to the capital, stood behind Zhu Yunwen, accompanying him quietly without saying a word.
Xie Jin is looking forward to this day.
The great achievements of the Han and Tang Dynasties have disappeared for hundreds of years. If it can really be realized in the Ming Dynasty when I am a courtier, what an honor it will be. In future history books, when talking about the Jianwen Dynasty, the word "prosperous age" will be indispensable.
Who is the minister of prosperity?
Xie Jin really hopes to get this honor.
Yu Xin also began to ponder, whether he had been opposing Zhu Yunwen all the time, was it out of checks and balances of monarchy and ministerial power, to protect the interests of civil servants, or was he loyal to his inner judgment?
I seem to have forgotten my original intention, and I oppose just to oppose, and I oppose just to not support.
Zhu Yunwen was right, the snow disaster was not his fault, and there was no need for him to punish himself. The expedition to the Western Regions was not his fault. Timur was coming, so Zhu Yunwen could only send troops to meet the enemy.
People need to have backbone, and the country needs to have backbone even more. If you lack calcium, you can't be strong, it won't work.
