Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Zhu Youjian said while Chen Qiyu took notes.

He wanted to record the emperor's words and then convert them into an imperial edict.

By the time the emperor finished speaking, Chen Qiyu had already sketched it in cursive script.

He leaned over the desk and thought about it carefully.

He reached for another piece of paper and wrote two decrees according to the emperor's wishes.

"Your Majesty, do you think this is okay?"

Chen Qiyu held the contents of the imperial edict that he had polished and approached Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian looked at the first picture, which was for everyone to know.

He was extremely satisfied.

He is indeed a talent who has been tortured by eight-legged essays. He can pick up all kinds of "edicts", "complaints", "systems" and "imperial orders" at his fingertips!

(I am reminded of a joke. The history books of our time said this about the Eight-legged essay, saying that China’s science and technology fell behind due to the Eight-legged essay recruiting scholars and imprisoning ideas.

Unfortunately, most people still believe it!

However?

This is a way of writing.

Do you think that the current "eight-legged style of writing" will definitely disappear?

Just like when you write a letter, the letter you raise must be - so-and-so: seeing the words is like seeing the face, missing you very much, etc.

It's like a college entrance examination essay - you must answer the questions at the beginning and point out the questions at the end.

If you don’t do this, your score will not be high!

Isn't this - breaking the topic, carrying the topic, starting the lecture, entering the topic, starting the strand, middle strand, back strand, and closing strand?

……

Let me tell you something you won’t believe. I have a friend who specializes in helping write speeches. He started out at three yuan a word, and he even received more than a dozen yuan a word.

Look, does this style of running script look like the so-called "eight-legged writing style" that "confines thoughts"?

It’s just a writing format, there are so many twists and turns! )

……

Zhu Youjian looked at the second picture.

This is written to the leaders of the righteous forces who participated in the battle of Guihua City.

Chen Qiyu's writing is excellent, with thousands of words written eloquently, his writing style is brilliant, and he quotes from classics.

However, Zhu Youjian was extremely dissatisfied.

He frowned and pointed:

"Chen Qing, please change this.

Most of the righteous teachers are rural people, and they are more accustomed to speaking in the vernacular. If you write in depth, they will not understand.

Chen Qing, follow the imperial edict style of the Taizu period and just use vernacular. "

Chen Qiyu understood and said hurriedly:

"I will change it now!"

Chen Qiyu lay on the side of the case again and wrote a new copy.

Sure enough, this edict is easy to understand.

"good!"

Zhu Youjian nodded:

"Write it down once and send it out tomorrow!"

There is no need for Chen Qiyu to do this himself, there will be a new scholar to copy it.

After writing it, Zhu Youjian checked it again, and then asked Wang Chengen to bring Dabao and use the seal.

……

After dealing with the matter of awarding volunteers, Zhu Youjian asked people to unfold a huge military map.

On the map, the Mingshun coalition forces have already laid out an encirclement circle.

Just waiting for Jiang Xiang and others to move their troops to the north bank of the Yellow River and block the Qing army's escape route!

In fact, although the opening in the north is very large, there are not many places where the Qing army can retreat.

There is only three plains in Hetao.

That is, the Xitao Yinchuan Plain, Houtao Bayannaoer Plain, and Qiantao Tumochuan Plain are located north of the several bends of the Yellow River.

As for Yinchuan and Bayannur, they are blocked by Table Mountain and Kubuqi Desert...

Therefore, the only optimal route for the Qing army to escape was the Tumochuan Plain when they entered.

In other words - Jiang Xiang, Mao Bijiang and others who captured Guihua City, even if they could not reach the north bank of the Yellow River in Tumochuan as scheduled, they had already blocked the only way for the Qing army to escape!

Contour map. The two black circles are desert areas, the black square is Table Mountain, the white circle is the red salt pond, and the white arrow is the marching route map of the Qing army.

Zhu Youjian's military layout has been completed!

"Old minister, congratulations to Your Majesty, the last step of the plan of shutting down and hunting dogs has been completed!"

Chen Qiyu smiled so hard that he could hardly see his eyes.

Although the Ordos Plateau is very vast, covering an area of ​​13 square kilometers.

However, to the north is the Kubuqi Desert and to the south is the Mu Us Desert.

Therefore, there are not many places suitable for human habitation within the territory.

After all calculations, it is only [-] to [-] square kilometers.

Also includes a lot of mountainous areas...

Once Guihua City is captured, even if they don't hold the line along the Yellow River, the Qing government's 20-strong army will not be able to escape!

Because this city is stuck between the Tumochuan Plain and the Chahar Grassland.

If the Qing army is willing to run westward...

Zhu Youjian couldn't get it!

Over there is the Khalkha Mongolia.

That is Outer Mongolia.

Historically known as the Mobei tribes.

The real map of the first 100 years of the Qing Dynasty shows that the farthest point in the west is the Ganliang area.

Four years ago in the 13th year of Chongzhen.

Faced with the pressing pressure of the Qing court and Russia, the Mongolian tribes in Mobei held a meeting and formulated a united front.

Historically known as: "Khalkha-Oirat Code".

In 1646, two years later, Duduo defeated the Khalkha coalition, which allowed the Mobei tribes to nominally surrender.

It was not until 1688, when Galdan defeated the Mobei Mongolian coalition, that the Outer Mongolian tribes moved to Inner Mongolia and surrendered to the Qing court.

In other words - if the Qing army fled westward...

Not only will Zhu Youjian let them go, he will even help them!

……

After hearing Chen Qiyu's words, Zhu Youjian nodded:

"This plan is indeed foolproof."

Zhu Youjian looked at Chen Qiyu:

\"Chen Qing, I leave this to you.

I am going to Shanxi. \"

Chen Qiyu’s eyes lit up:

"Your Majesty is going to take action against them?"

Zhu Youjian laughed:

"I have invited Liu Fangliang, how can I spare them?"

Seeing what the emperor said was interesting, Chen Qiyu laughed.

He also heard about the emperor's use of Liu Fangliang to collect money.

The emperor, who always gave people a serious impression, would have such a naughty scene, which was really unexpected by Chen Qiyu.

Zhu Youjian continued:

"Not only Liu Fangliang, I also recruited Fang Zhenghua's adopted son Wei Guozheng.

Also recruited were five hundred Jinyi Guards.

Wei Guozheng, this kid, has already mastered [-]% of Fang Zhenghua's skills. "

(Tiqi is the nickname of the captain of the Jinyi Guard who has detective powers.

They are usually selected from among the people and are not inherited from father to son from generation to generation. This is to prevent the privileged Jin Yiwei from doing evil.

Ti: In ancient times, emperors and their troops wore ti color, which is orange-red.

Tiqi is the cavalry in the emperor's army wearing orange-red clothes, this means.

Ti: This is also the common color of Jin Yiwei’s clothes.

Of course, when performing lurking missions, Jin Yiwei wears ordinary clothes. The more like ordinary people, the better.

This is also the reason why a large number of low-level royal guards wear soap uniforms.

Is it easy to hide?

Without any research, later generations thought that the lower-level officers of Jinyiwei wore soap uniforms, which is wrong.

The color of their formal clothes is all tee, which is similar to orange-red.

Including flying fish suits, bullfighting suits, python suits, formal suits all have this basic color, but the shapes and colors of the patches are different. )

(The current broken input method, ti ji, cannot be typed, and qi has become a pronunciation of only one qi...)

……

Chen Qiyu smiled and said:

"Skills have specializations, and Tiqi has always been an expert at ransacking homes. It is only right that your Majesty send them here."

Seeing that the emperor was ready, Chen Qiyu stopped and said with concern:

“Then Your Majesty—it’s better to bring more people there.

After all... the strength of the Eight Families is not weak. "

Chen Qiyu looked worried.

ps: In the explanation part, the number of words has been added.
