Chapter 24

Royal Palace

"Your Majesty, if you want to leave the customs, when you march from Xuanda, the Chahar tribe has been jointly suppressed by the Korqin tribe and the old slave in recent years, and the living space is getting smaller and smaller. Their tribe will only get closer to our Ming Dynasty. After all, we are still allies now."

Zhu Youxiao stared at the map tightly. He was discussing the march route with Zhang Yu to get out of seclusion. Although he was traveling through time, he was still unfamiliar with war, not to mention that he planned to fight in person this time.

"From our perspective, it is naturally the most appropriate to advance from Xuanda, but my idea this time is not to face them head-on. I want to follow Huo Qubing's way of fighting."

"From Lin Danhan's perspective, he will be more cautious about the Ming Dynasty. At present, he can still maintain the so-called ally relationship with us is just a force of the situation. It is not the best route to go out of the country with Xuanda."

"I want to try my best to avoid their main cavalry force. My Yulin Army is only a few thousand cavalry now, and Lin Dankhan has tens of thousands of cavalry, so I can only take advantage of the situation and cannot be defeated. Once defeated, the Ming Dynasty will be even more doomed!"

Zhang Yu looked at the emperor in front of him with admiration, which refreshed his understanding. Since the Tang Dynasty, which dynasty has not required at least 100,000 soldiers to dare to leave the customs? Even Emperor Chengzu had hundreds of thousands of troops followed the five battles of Mobei.

"Does Your Majesty want to get out of the Pass with the first battalion of the Yulin Army cavalry? I think it is absolutely impossible. After all, the Yulin Army is His Majesty's newly trained army. It has never experienced the battle formation, and the number of people is too small. I'm afraid~~!"

Zhu Youxiao turned around and smiled:

"What are you afraid of? I think it's enough to have five thousand cavalry as the main force. The Mongols are not invincible. Moreover, I only have cavalry as the main force. The other battalions are going, and I'm not so arrogant yet."

"And I am not going to do my best to achieve my goals in one battle, I am leaving for war horses and Mongolian men."

Zhang Yu had only a little understanding of it. Isn’t Your Majesty’s personal expedition to defeat Lin Danhan?

"I am brave, can your Majesty solve my doubts?"

"I agree with your strategy of differentiating and attacking him very much, but if you want to win over the Tumot tribe and get close to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty still has to show its real strength. It doesn't need much. As long as they know that although the Ming Dynasty was defeated by Sarhu, it is still more than enough to attack their grassland. As long as Lin Danhan loses in this battle, his prestige in each tribe will drop rapidly."

"And my Ming Dynasty can rebuild the national prestige during the Wanli period. I have a saying in my heart that I have never said that a weak country has no diplomacy!"

A weak country has no diplomacy. Zhang Yu silently recited this sentence in his heart. After a little leaning, he suddenly realized it.

"Your Majesty's words are truly a famous saying for all ages. The Song Dynasty then successively submitted to the Khitan, Jurchen, and Mongolia, which was exactly what Your Majesty said!"

"I dare to ask where Your Majesty wants to come out of seclusion?"

Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly and slowly said three words:

"Waiting for information!"

...

Suburbs of Beijing

An army was advancing neatly on the official road. The old man in the carriage opened the curtain and looked out, asking in confusion:

"Where are you soldiers? Where are you going?"

A sergeant replied:

"We came from Tongzhou and went to the capital under the order of His Majesty the Emperor."

Tongzhou?

"Can Xu Guangqi be there?"

"The Censor is in front of you."

The old man hurriedly ordered the groom to catch up, and shouted when he saw the carriage in front of him:

"Zi first!"

"Prince? Stop quickly."

When Xu Guangqi saw that it was Wang Xianggan, he quickly got out of the car to greet him.

"Can you take the same car with me first? I will also go to Beijing according to Your Majesty's order."

"good!"

"I am hereby the will of Your Majesty to enter the capital, and I also specially instructed the new soldiers in Tongzhou to bring them over. I wonder if the prince and the prince come to the capital and know what your Majesty is going to do?"

"From my opinion, it should be for the Liao affairs. I heard that Your Majesty has trained a new Yulin Army. It seems that Your Majesty attaches great importance to martial arts."

Xu Guangqi also understood that the reason why His Majesty asked him to bring Tongzhou troops into Beijing was to train.

"I have also heard that in Tongzhou that His Majesty has dealt with a large number of officials in the court twice in a row. Now there is a lot of discussion among the people, and Wei Zhongxian has also come up with the government to control the government."

Wang Xianggan naturally knew these things, but he just knew them and did not want to ask. For him, no matter whether there was a powerful eunuch or a party in the court, he had already seen many people. He was a Jinshi in the fourth year of Longqing. He had never seen any storms?

It can be said that Wang Xianggan personally experienced the richest era of the Ming Dynasty, and watched the Ming Dynasty fall into the abyss. A powerful minister? No matter how powerful you are, you can still be as powerful as Tai Shi Zhang?

"This matter does not belong to me, the idle old man, to ask about it. I will advise you not to involve these matters, otherwise you will be doomed!"

"Your Majesty's loyal words will definitely be remembered in my heart!"

Then the two started chatting in the carriage. The two of them had a close relationship without mentioning the court affairs, and they had a full chat for an hour.

"Two sirs, the capital has arrived!"

Xu Guangqi got out of the car and instructed him to wait here and not let the soldiers have conflicts. After that, he went to the palace with Wang Xianggan.

"Emperor, Xu Guangqi and Wang Xiang have sex!"

"Li Yongzhen, change my clothes, Wang Chaofu, go and bring them in!"

Zhu Youxiao wore a casual outfit from the Ming Dynasty. Although he was the emperor, he could not be casual because he was the emperor, especially in front of his ministers.

"Two beloved ministers are exempted from tribute and give them seats!"

"Why, did the two dear ministers come to Beijing together?"

Xu Guangqi stood up and bowed:

"Go back to Your Majesty, I and the prince met by chance outside the city!"

Zhu Youxiao quickly waved his hand to let him sit down.

"I didn't expect how my two beloved ministers were destined to be destined. It seems that my decision is absolutely correct."

What decision was made when Xu Guangqi and Wang Xiang were in a fog?

"I decided to use Wang Aiqing as the cabinet's Yuanfu and Xu Aiqing as the cabinet's assistant. What do the two beloved ministers think?"

"Your Majesty, I am old and weak, and I am afraid I will let you down."

Wang Xianggan is indeed very old. He is now seventy-five years old as a Jinshi in Longqing. If Zhu Youxiao remembers correctly, it seems that he died in the early years of Chongzhen in history, and it has been a few years since then.

"Your Majesty, I am just a censor before. I am afraid that I will not be able to take on this position and will let down the emperor's grace."

Xu Guangqi is now confused. He has entered the cabinet directly from the censor. The Ming Dynasty has not yet come out of this precedent.

Zhu Youxiao knew that Xu Guangqi was worried that he would not convince the public if he entered the cabinet, but the rules were all used to break them.

"Xu Aiqing doesn't have to refuse. I believe in your talents and the eyes of the emperor and grandfather."

Xu Guangqi also knew that the emperor was determined to ask him to enter the cabinet, so it was not easy to push him.

"Master Wang, I know your situation, but now the cabinet must be in charge of Master Wang. Liao affairs are in danger, but now those officials are only concerned about fighting for power and profit. How can I feel assured that they will enter the cabinet? Master Wang is relieved. When the situation settles, I will let Master Wang go back to his hometown to enjoy his old age. Please don't refuse."

What else can Wang Xianggan do? Your Majesty told him like this. If you still argue with Your Majesty, wouldn’t you be able to wipe out His Majesty?

"Old minister obeys the order!"

"The king's companion will be ordered by all officials to hold court promotion in three days!"
