Zhang Jing stopped.

But when Emperor Tianqi looked up and smiled at him, he said with concern: "I have heard about the military academy. It's great that you have such a thought. This is to share your worries."

Zhang Jingyi said: "Thank you Your Majesty to praise you."

Emperor Tianqi then smiled and said, "I am trying to share my worries with you. As for this school, I don't dare to agree... Of course, I will not interfere. I just suddenly felt a little emotional just now."

"I wonder what Your Majesty feels about?"

Emperor Tianqi said in a heavy manner: "A few days ago, I had received a report from Dongjiang Town. The Jiannu people were indeed gathering a large army. I am afraid that they would conquer the North Korean country soon. But the Ming Dynasty was powerless. Once... I watched them seize North Korea, the situation in Liaodong would be even worse... I don't know how much money and grain should be added and how many people should be recruited to maintain the situation in Liaodong. My Ming Dynasty continued to bleed like this, and I didn't know when it would be. But the Jiannu people were so brave and fierce. I sat in this diligent hall, but I was helpless."

"I have seen the suggestions of all officials, and most of them want to defend them. They believe that Hu has no luck for a hundred years and will fall apart sooner or later. As long as I, the Ming Dynasty, guard the nine borders, the Jiannu people can collapse on their own. Zhang Qing, their thoughts... I understand that they want to drag them. As long as the Jiannu's military front is not in front of them, they will hope for the so-called national destiny. After all, I, the Ming Dynasty, have many passes to guard them, so that they can consciously sing and dance to peace, but in the long run, how many days can they sing and dance to peace?"

After a pause, Emperor Tianqi immediately said, "It is extremely rare that you can have this desire to serve. I just hope to fight in the field and forgive me for not being able to agree. However, many people outside laughed at you and said that you don't know the generality, but you don't have to take this seriously. I support you to run this school well."

Emperor Tianqi was in a complicated mood, and he might not think that Zhang Jingyi's method was effective.

But at least in his opinion, a person like Zhang Jingyi is simply a clear stream among all officials.

No one else is enterprising and just wants to delay the change. Only Zhang Jingyi and other a very small number of people think that they should take the initiative to solve this problem, and the differences are just how to take the initiative.

After tens of wars with the Jiannu people, the Ming court concluded that when dealing with the Jiannu people, they should build a wall, then cut off trade with them, and waste them to death.

But Zhang Jingyi knew the general trend of history well and knew that this set was useless, and it would only continue to grow Jiannu!

Building a wall and never attacked, the Jiannu people gave enough time to digest the land they occupied, and gave them time to conquer the North Korean and Mongolian tribes. At the same time, they also gave them the opportunity to slowly win over the Liao people.

Cut off trade... This is even more nonsense. As long as the pig iron and salt and various important military supplies are still lacking, merchants will naturally take risks and try their best to send them to Liaodong to make huge profits.

As long as the Ming army does not attack for a day, the more delays it is, the Jiannu people they will face in the future will only become stronger and stronger.

Of course, even though Zhang Jingyi knew all this, he couldn't say it out. At this time, he just nodded and said, "I dare not force myself."

After saying that, he said goodbye.

Emperor Tianqi was a careful person, especially in engineering. He quickly summoned some masters and officials whom he recognized began to discuss in detail around the drawings.

Then, these people were ordered to go to Miyun several times.

After many discussions, they first came up with a draft.

But... it is impossible to rely on the draft alone, but we still need to make arguments around this.

The method of argumentation is to build a reduced-scale version of Miyun terrain, and then build a dam on its own for verification.

After several discussions, Emperor Aoki was responsible for making decisions.

This kind of big project cannot be obtained in less than a year or two! Emperor Tianqi is not omnipotent, but his advantage is that he is a person who has done engineering, so he has a lot of vision and knows whether talents in this field can take on great responsibilities, and even knows whether these plans work.

However... Emperor Tianqi was particularly careful about this matter. He was on the reservoir. Except for reading memorials and Changsheng, he was all on this.

Zhang Jing had not issued a charter for a long time, but he was not in a hurry. After all, this era is out of touch with future generations. His technical capabilities are here. If he wants to build such a large-scale reservoir, it is impossible to completely follow the methods of future generations.

It's late autumn in a blink of an eye.

It is reported that in Liaodong, the situation has undergone drastic changes.

The Jiannu people began to enter the North Korean country, and the North Korean country was unstoppable. The flying letter made an emergency. The court issued an order to act cheaply by the Liaodong Governor Yuan Chonghuan and the general of Dongjiang Town Mao Wenlong.

However, it is obvious that all the civil and military officials of the North Korea no longer have any expectations for the North Korea. Yuan Chonghuan wrote a letter saying that the North Korea is unsustainable and the most urgent task is to continue to strengthen the defense on the front line of Ningyuan and Jinzhou.

only……

When Zhang Jingyi was patrolling the military academy in Changping, he suddenly... from Jizhou and Da'ankou, a large number of fleeing gentry and civilians appeared.

This situation immediately aroused Changping's alertness.

You should know that Jizhou is within the pass, and Da'ankou is an important pass. Although it is not as famous as Shanhaiguan, it is also a pass on the Great Wall. Although there are not many troops stationed, it should not be underestimated.

These refugees were quickly received and then...a terrible news came out.

The Jiannu people entered the pass.

For a moment, the capital was shocked.

Changping and Jizhou counties were directly exposed to the minions of the Jiannu people.

This situation... quickly attracted attention. The civil and military officials in the court were a little panicked and quickly ordered all the gates of the capital to close. Some people even submitted a memorial, hoping to issue an edict to serve the king.

Emperor Tianqi seemed calm, but after reading the memorial, he was still furious: "I have repeatedly issued an edict to Yuan Chonghuan to make him pay special attention to the trends of Jiannu. The Jiannu people attacked North Korea and would have to feint attack Ningyuan and Jinzhou frontlines to harass the gates. He patted my chest again and again to see what's going on now."

The ministers were silent.

The reason why Emperor Tianqi was calm was because he had predicted the situation today.

This time, it was definitely not a large-scale attack by the Jiannu people.

It was a feint.

It was to prevent the Ming army from rushing to aid Korea while the main force was attacking North Korea and to prevent the Ming army from rushing to aid Korea, it sent a partial army to continuously harass the Ming hinterland.

But, Yuan Chonghuan, who was stationed on the front lines of Ningyuan and Jinzhou, was still careless. He thought the defense line he had established was indestructible.

But how could they know that the Jiannu people did not play according to common sense. They divided the partial division into several shares, did not directly attack Jinzhou and Ningyuan, but directly bypassed these strong cities and chose to directly attack the passes in the Great Wall.

You should know that there are countless passes on the Great Wall. The famous ones are Juyong Pass and Shanhai Pass, but in fact... there are outposts everywhere along the way.

If the army moves and does not take down Shanhaiguan and Juyongguan, there may be a possibility that the Ming army will be surrounded by the retreat at any time.

But the small group of Jiannu people who were haunted obviously had no burden of food, supplies and supplies.

They range from hundreds to dozens of people, and they directly crossed the edge wall. Once they entered the pass, they immediately began to burn, kill, rob!

The entire pass, after a long period of peace, was suddenly attacked everywhere, and for a moment, people were in panic.

Soon, another news came that a group of Beijing camp stationed in Ji County had contacted the thief. The other party had a size of more than a thousand people. After contact, the three thousand troops in Beijing camp were immediately defeated and died in command. The rest fled one after another.

This immediately caused the entire Northern Zhili and Shuntian Prefecture to fall into despair.

Thousands of people...

How many Jiannu people are of this size?

Inside and outside the government, both inside and outside the government, there were doubts about Yuan Chonghuan for a while.

Everyone supports you Yuan Chonghuan because you Yuan Chonghuan boast about the impeccable line between Ningyuan and Jinzhou.

But now, I'm letting the Jiannu people enter the pass.

The Jiannu people who entered the pass seemed to have no intention of attacking the capital. They only burned and killed the prefectures and counties on the periphery. The road was unstoppable. In panic, a large number of soldiers and civilians rushed towards the capital.

Emperor Tianqi ordered all troops to attack and guard the capital, but now it is in chaos. After a long period of peace, the guards stationed in various parts of Northern Zhili were also in chaos for a while.

Emperor Tianqi thought of Zhang Jingyi at this time, so he quickly asked someone to summon Zhang Jingyi to meet him.

Zhang Shun rushed to the Zhang family in a hurry, and soon returned, saying, "Your Majesty, Zhang Baihu is not in the city."

Emperor Tianqi was stunned and couldn't help but say, "What does it mean if you are not in the capital?"

Zhang Shun said: "I heard that Zhang Baihu went to Changping for inspection three days ago and has not come back so far."

So Emperor Tianqi said, "Send a quick horse to summon Zhang Jing back to Beijing immediately! Tell him that I will see him now, and you will go in person."

Zhang Shun shivered.

If you cut yourself into a eunuch, you will not only lose money, but you have already owed a lot of debts until now! And the situation outside the city is still unknown. Who knows whether you will encounter a small group of Jiannu people? Don’t be skinned by cramps at that time?

It turns out that besides losing money, it’s also a life-threatening one!

But he didn't dare to neglect, so he had to bite the bullet, responded, and hurried away.

Emperor Tianqi still seemed quite calm: "I see the report from this morning...is suspected of exaggeration. The direction of the Jiannu people is mainly in Korea. This time, the people who entered the pass were just a small group of people. It is precisely because of the few people that they could easily cross Ningyuan and Jinzhou and enter directly from Da'ankou. They were just harassing... It would never be as large as a thousand people!"

At this time, Emperor Tianqi showed an angry look on his face: "According to my opinion, this must be a great defeat in the command of Ji County. In order to shirk responsibility, he deliberately exaggerated the enemy's situation. It's really damn. This will make the capital even more uneasy!"
