Domineering Daming

The combat department is the place where the generals are responsible for commanding the frontline troops and implementing the plans of the staff department. Yao Zhengtao, who has never led an army and has experience in the army, is indeed a bit strange to be placed here.

Yao Zhengtao got up and said: "Marshal, my lords, I have no experience in large-scale cavalry battles in Ming Dynasty, and it is only recorded in some historical books. When entering the desert, it has to be traced back to the Han Dynasty. There are no other arrangements in the combat department. And those who participated in the battle this time, Zu Dashou, the commander-in-chief of the Taining Guard in the west, Man Gui of the Chijin Guard of the Tumu Fortress, Zhao Lediao of the Iron Armored Army, Xiong Tingbi and Dorgon in the East, are all capable of recruiting and fighting. Officials believe that one should boldly let go, and not be too restrained, lest the leader of the army conflict with the actual military situation, and the dilemma will lead to failure instead."

Most of the people here are the leaders of the army, and they don't find his words harsh. Sun Chengzong motioned him to sit down, looked at both sides and said, "Everyone, what do you think?"

Cao Wenzhao's quick-return battalion had just been formed, and he hadn't trained for a long time, so he couldn't participate in the battle, so he sat upright and didn't speak.

Lu Xiangsheng is a person who is going to the south, so he is also not suitable for talking.

Qin Liangyu guards Gansu, Shanxi and Ningxia important towns, and has some relationship with Monan, she turned her head to look at Sun Chengzong, and said: "Marshal, the general thinks that the emperor's technique of exhausting the enemy is very clever, and the blitzkrieg is also very good, suitable for fighting in the desert. The last general has another suggestion, that is, the army will go straight away. Chahar has not taken precautions, and the soldiers will not care when they are tired for a long time. Once my king's teacher comes to attack, he will flee in a hurry. Until they are exhausted, gather and annihilate them!"

Sun Chengzong looked at Qin Liangyu, his expression moved, and he nodded secretly.

This female general is not in vain, her tactic is indeed on the point, if so, Da Ming basically does not need to send a single soldier, and perhaps the time will be faster than the first plan.

Sun Chengzong looked at the others again, and basically none of the attendees spoke again.

This is the first meeting in the Grand Marshal's Mansion, and everyone is still not used to it.

Seeing this, Sun Chengzong said, "It's not too late. The staff office has to formulate a battle plan again. We need to have multiple backups and consider all the possibilities. I will leave for the civil fort today. I will decide other matters when I come back!"

"Yes!" A group of people stood up immediately according to the new rules and said loudly.

Chapter 1027 Send Lu Xiangsheng

In the evening, go out to the official road in the south of the city.

Zhu Xu and Lu Xiangsheng stood in front of each other, behind them were Cao Huachun and the imperial guards, and 120 people were Lu Xiangsheng's exclusive guards, not far behind them.

Zhu Xu walked slowly and said, "Lu Qing, one of them is to complete the 'military reform', and the other is the southeast peninsula. You all guess that I have ambitions, so I might as well tell you that my ambitions are beyond your imagination. Chahar can't make any waves, and then there is the country of Wa, which I have already arranged, and will gradually be resolved in the next two or three years. I will put it back, let him toss it first, and then we will clean up the mess. Your government is placed in Kunming, which is the intention. You are in Kunming, you must do a good job of the "military reform" and infiltrate those countries , when necessary, we will intervene by force, we will not allow one family to dominate, we don’t want to annex them right now, but let them fight among themselves..."

Lu Xiangsheng followed Zhu Xu, bowed slightly, with a calm expression.

Many people in the imperial court have already understood the "big ambition" of the emperor in front of him. Regardless of whether Chahar is the biggest threat to Ming Dynasty at the moment, Chahar must be eliminated and annexed in this majesty's general plan.Then there is the Japanese country, which is lonely and hangs out, arrogantly arrogant, and disrespectful of the king of the Ming Dynasty, and it is bound to be cut off!

Zhu Xu looked up at the somewhat desolate official road not far away, and said: "I have always been very patient, Chahar can wait for two or three years, Japan can also wait for two or three years, Southeast can really wait for a few years, The rest is Moxi. You don’t have much impression of Moxi. I know it, but there are the most powerful khanates in Mongolia. I can’t tolerate threats around my Ming Dynasty, and I can’t leave it to my descendants. But I'm not in a hurry, I can wait for a few more years..."

Lu Xiangsheng couldn't calm down anymore. He didn't expect the emperor's eyes to be farther west than the southeast. It was not only the Ming Dynasty, but the Central Plains dynasties had never touched it.In his impression, there are lofty mountains, ancient deserts, barren land, and uninhabited. What is the use of such a place in Ming Dynasty?

The treasures of nature and resources are all in China, so what is the use of those deserts and Gobi?

Lu Xiangsheng looked up at Zhu Xu, and just about to speak, Zhu Xu said again: "I know, you will definitely object to these, keep it in your heart, I won't listen. Except for Moxi Mongolia, what I'm still arranging is the navy Yes, you can see my devotion to the navy, you can see how big this world is, and you will go to sea in the future, I will let you know first, a major general is still too little for you..."

Lu Xiangsheng's expression remained unchanged, he was not moved by Zhu Xu's appointment as an official and made a wish, but he was a little surprised and uncertain.

These three years, those few years, those three years, and a few more years, this adds up to more than ten years. The patience of the emperor in front of him is really shocking, and the chessboard he is playing at the same time is too big for him to imagine. .However, the emperor's "appetite" is good, is it a blessing or a curse for Daming?

Lu Xiangsheng now somewhat understands the complicated mentality of those court adults. Facing such an emperor, he can't find other emotions except awe.

Zhu Xu didn't look back, walked slowly, and said: "You just listen to these words, don't spread them outside. The 'Military Reform' is a big deal, I guess I won't be able to leave Beijing this year, those grown-ups All staring at me, wait a little longer, I will look for an opportunity to go to the south of the Yangtze River again, and I will rest assured that you will do things. Although the ruling and opposition parties have some criticisms about your designation as a major general, I have always been very accurate in seeing people, and you have given me a few credits in the south. Earn some face and come back..."

Lu Xiangsheng is an exceptional promotion. Although he has made great achievements in suppressing civil uprisings and suppressing bandits in Shandong, Jiangxi and other places, compared with Xiong Tingbi's series of military exploits in Liaodong, Cao Wenzhao's expansion of territory, and Qin Liangyu's years of sitting in one side, Lu Xiangsheng was suddenly promoted to be the Minister of the Ministry of War, barely qualified to be the chief general of the southern battalion, his qualifications are too shallow.

Lu Xiangsheng knew it himself, and said, "Yes, I understand."

"Bei Annan, it's yours. You recommend the commander-in-chief."

Zhu Xu slowed down, and said calmly: "Dorgon is not under your control, but when necessary, you have to beat him, don't let him forget his sense of proportion, he can only make trouble if he is allowed to make trouble..."

Lu Xiangsheng has basically understood that Dorgon is clearly a chess piece that can be discarded at any time, and he is playing his final role right now.

"Follow the order." Lu Xiangsheng raised his hand and said.

Zhu Xu turned his head and looked at Lu Xiangsheng. This person has great talent, but he has never had a suitable opportunity to display it. Perhaps this time going to Jiangnan is an opportunity. He smiled and said: "Well, I will send it here, Lu Qing, Jiangnan It's raining, take care of yourself."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I'm leaving!" Lu Xiangsheng knelt down on one knee and performed the formal courtier's ceremony.

Zhu Xu hummed lightly, and then watched him get into the carriage. The group of guards on horseback left slowly and quickly along the endless official road.

Every time I see Zhu Xu off, I have a different feeling in my heart, that is, his writing is not good, otherwise I really want to write a Song Ci.

Recently, he is particularly fond of Song Ci. The artistic conception, tune, conciseness and charm of Song Ci are all unique and have a long aftertaste. Compared with poetry, he prefers Ci.

Zhu Xu watched Lu Xiangsheng's carriage drift away, thinking in his heart that he should study hard when he is free.

After waiting for a while, Cao Huachun stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, General Qin will leave Beijing tomorrow, and Elder Sun Ge will leave Beijing tonight."

Xiong Tingbi is in Liaodong, Cao Wenzhao is in Shanxi, and the one who needs to be delivered by Zhu Xu himself is Qin Liangyu.

Sun Chengzong went to Tumubao in person to command the conquest of Chahar.Originally, Zhu Xu wanted Lu Xiang to be promoted to seek some military exploits, but his qualifications were really shallow, and he couldn't command Xiong Tingbi, Man Gui, etc., so Sun Chengzong had to play in person.

"Tell me, do you want...to go?" Zhu Xu looked at Lu Xiangsheng's carriage, talking to himself as if asking Cao Huachun.

Cao Huachun looked up at Zhu Xu, but didn't speak immediately.

No one really understands His Majesty the Emperor in front of him, even he, the chief executive who has been with him for many years.

An emperor's mind is like an abyss like an ocean, and this one is even more outstanding!

After waiting for a while, Cao Huachun said, "Your Majesty, there are too many government affairs at the moment, I'm afraid the adults in the court will not let the emperor go."

Zhu Xu frowned, but didn't speak.

He has always been busy with his feet on the ground, and it is rare for him to have a moment of leisure. This time, the "New Deal" has reached the threshold of drastic and in-depth advancement. Even if the adults in the court are willing to let him go, he will not be able to leave.

"Let's go, go to Sun Ge's hometown to have dinner tonight." Zhu Xu said with a smile.

Sun Chengzong is the emperor's teacher, but because Zhu Xu is too special a student, his emperor's teacher is really in name only, and many people have forgotten about it.

Zhu Xu came back to visit the palace first, and just entered the Qianqing Palace, the maid from Fengzao Palace came to report that the eldest prince Zhu Ciye had spoken, and when Zhu Xu rushed over, the little guy just blinked at him, letting Zhu Xu Xu didn't speak no matter how funny he was, which made Li Jieyu feel a little embarrassed.

Zhu Xu looked at this little guy, not knowing what to say.

This little guy, at such a young age, is a little too calm. Sometimes Zhu Xu can't tell whether he can understand or not.

"Maybe it's a confession." A maid beside her whispered.

Li Jieyu's face changed slightly, and he quickly winked at her to silence her.

Zhu Xu was reminded by the palace maid, thinking that this is his eldest son, no matter whether there will be a legitimate son in the future, this eldest son must be trained well, he pondered, and said: "I will leave the palace later, and go to Sun Ge's hometown for dinner. Ye'er go together."

Seeing that Zhu Xu didn't care, Li Jieyu felt a little relieved, and said repeatedly: "The concubine prepares something for the emperor and Ye'er."

Zhu Xu nodded, and teased for a while, but the little guy just didn't open his mouth. On the other side, Xiao Shuxian was playing happily on the ground, laughing all the time, not knowing why, this was in harmony with Ci Ye's quietness. sharp contrast.

At dinner time, Zhu Xu put little Ciye in the cart, pushed him out of Xihua Gate, and rushed to Sun Chengzong's residence.
