Chapter 478 Prepare in advance

Xu Yingxu has made military achievements and has already achieved a title, so he naturally feels at ease. Although he is not as good as the eldest brother's duke, he is still a marquis at least, and his status in the Ming Dynasty is already transcendent enough.

However, although his third son, although he was born in the Zhongshan Palace, he also held an important position in the Five Army Governor's Office. Although Xu Zengshou held a high position, many people only had the impression of him that the youngest son of the Zhongshan King Xu Da, the third brother of the queen in the dynasty, and the third uncle of the prince.

Now I will give my third brother a chance. I will succeed and become famous in one battle. I will be appointed as a general. But this is an opportunity.

This time, if there is still war in the future, there will naturally be a chance to continue to lead troops and gain military merits.

As for Xu Miaoqing and even the three daughters-in-laws of the Xu family, they didn't think there was anything wrong with this. They came from a martial arts family and seemed to be extremely noble, but as long as there was a war in the court, these martial arts must go out without hesitation.

Enjoying glory and wealth, we naturally have to take on responsibilities and risks. The martial arts of the Ming Dynasty are not abandoned now.

Just like the emperor's uncles, the three brothers of the Chang family were running around and fighting. Don't worry about whether they had the talent to lead troops. When they needed them to go out, they all did not hesitate.

Although there is the intention of the emperor to take care of him, the three brothers of the Chang family, one Duke and two Marquis are also envied by countless nobles. This is the true honor of martial arts.

Although the Xu family has Xu Da's elegance, Xu Da's sons have a very high starting point. But if they don't work hard, the Xu family might be suppressed by the Chang family.

What's more, Xu Yingxu knew in his heart that he was not a proton when he stayed in the capital. He had led soldiers and participated in fierce battles. Although he was not as capable as his elder brother in leading troops to fight, he was better than the third brother.

Staying in Beijing to help the emperor control the Beijing camp is one thing, and defending the crown prince is the most real thing.

Xu Huizu had no objection. He felt that his second son's decision was right. As for Xu Zengshou, he was a little excited, and his opportunity came.

Xu Miaoqing looked at her nose and her heart, and she would not ask too much about the affairs in the court, and would not ask about things like war.

"Uncle, you are going to Liaodong." Xiao Xiaozhu suddenly spoke at this time and said, "Duke Ying is the head coach, you are the deputy head coach. This time we want to conquer North Korea, and there will be no gains."

Xiao Xiao Zhu naturally would not have such insights. This was all when Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu discussed it. Xiao Xiao Zhu heard it. He knew the reason for the war this time, and also knew what kind of results should be achieved in this war.

Xu Huizu suddenly understood, no wonder the Emperor called him to the Qianqing Palace a few days ago and encouraged him!

"The dog's belly can't hide two taels of oil!" Looking at his son, Zhu Yunyou smiled and scolded, "We and Grandpa Emperor should have driven out for you at that time. Remember this, and you are not allowed to go out and say it except in front of your own family."

Xiao Xiao Zhu was not afraid of Xiao Zhu and said with a smile, "Dad, we are Zhu, not a dog. If you scold us, you will scold yourself!"

The others couldn't help laughing, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh, and they all worked very hard. As for Zhu Yunyou, his face turned red. This bastard always had amazing words, and sometimes it really made Xiao Zhu unable to come to Taiwan.

Suddenly, Zhu Yunyou sighed, "We finally know how uncomfortable our father and grandpa are. We are premature and have a better mind than other children. I guess they would feel uncomfortable when they saw us at that time."

The Xu family is not easy to interact with. In fact, there are also a lot of discussions among the government and the public about whether they were supernatural powers.

People who know have heard of it, but may not have seen it. People who don’t know think it may be the royal family building momentum. But what everyone is sure of is that when Zi was young today, he had great power, and he had greater power than those vassal kings. Those who were young at a young age controlled a lot of military power and had some power in the court.

Looking at Xu Huizu, Zhu Yunyou smiled and said, "The Queen can only help Qin'er's birthday banquet. Speaking of which, the Queen is also Qin'er's aunt. Qin'er is not yet an adult and has no honor. This little thing cannot be established in the court, so she can only be the Queen's discipline."

Xu Huizu smiled and said, "Your Majesty the Holy Prison."

"What about us?" Xiao Xiao Zhu was anxious and suddenly said, "Our mother will have a baby at that time. My cousin's birthday cannot be done by her!"

Xiao Xiaozhu is still very considerate. No matter how naughty he is, he has heard of many things. For example, he knows that his mother should have given birth around June, so he has a younger brother or younger sister for him and has no time to care about others.

Zhu Yunyou was stunned for a moment, then said, "That can only be aggrieved Qin'er. Others are not qualified to hold a birthday banquet for him. If the queen has no spare time, let's see if our uncle has time. If not, Qin'er can't blame us."

Xu Huizu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the birth date of a dog is just a trivial matter, Your Majesty does not need to worry about it."

Xu Miaoqing also said at this time, "Your Majesty, Qin'er is an external minister. Your Majesty has the time to care about his birthday. If I have free time, I will hold a birthday banquet for him. If I don't have time and my second brother is still in the capital, can he feel wronged?"

As for why I didn't care about Xu Qin's mother Li's opinion on this matter, it was because such a thing naturally required a man to preside over it. After all, Xu Qin's identity is special, and he is the prince of the country.

Zhu Yunyou is actually just saying polite words. Although Xu Qin has a special identity, Zhu Yunyou really doesn’t need to hold a birthday banquet for Xu Qin himself, otherwise it would be too much.

As for Zhu Yunyou's care, it is natural that Xu Qin was old enough, so he appointed Xu Qin as the prince of the country, which is much more practical than a birthday banquet.

If you don’t believe it, look at Lao Zhu’s old brother Tang He. Although Tang He made great contributions, he had a good relationship with Lao Zhu. However, Tang He’s Duke’s title has never been passed on. Whoever asked Tang He’s descendants to always leave a child and die early.

The title of Duke Xinguo was unable to receive the title for a long time, which was all Zhu Yunyou's concern. In fact, there was no need to worry so much. Although Tang He's descendants died early, Tang He's bloodline continued, which was just that they could not survive the title and would not lose their title.

The court is about to launch troops again, which is obviously an absolute major event, but not everyone is qualified to know these things in advance.

After the family dinner, Xu Miaoqing and her sister-in-law took the children. As for Zhu Yunyou, she took the three brothers of the Xu family out for a walk. Xiao Xiao Zhu originally wanted to join in the fun, but after thinking about it, let's have fun with her cousin.

"In a few days, the North Korean news will come." Zhu Yunyou, who was carrying his hands on his back, walked in front of him and said slowly, "Li Chenggui's uneasy son started a turmoil again, killing his brother and imprisoning his father."

In fact, many martial arts are not particularly familiar with the situation in North Korea. However, the three brothers of the Xu family naturally know something, because the emperor has never recognized the vassal status of North Korea. In addition to the special nature of Busan Wei, everyone also speculated that the Ming Dynasty would sooner or later use military force against North Korea.

Zhu Yunyou laughed and said, "Speaking of this time, the third brother is going to Tianjin Wei, so he must be prepared to cross the sea. We send troops here, and those people may want to attack Busan Wei."

Xu Huizu said at this time, "When you go back to your Majesty, the three guards in Busan have sufficient food and grass, and the city walls are solid, so it is difficult for Korean soldiers to conquer. If the court gathers to annihilate Korean soldiers, the guards in Busan can also send troops to attack in two groups."

"That's the reason, Grandpa Huang also has this plan." Zhu Yunyou said with a smile, "So let the third brother sit in the Tianjin Guard, and our food and soldiers have to go out to sea from there. Our uncle is also familiar with him on the other side, and the second and third uncles are also going to Busan Guard."

The three brothers of the Xu family understood that in fact, the three brothers of the Chang family can all have titles, especially Chang Sheng and Chang Sen. Their military achievements are basically from Busan. It can even be said that the Three Guards of the Busan were built by two brothers of the Chang family. They once stayed there for several years.

Zhu Yunyou was a little worried and sighed, "In the past, Emperor Yang of Sui went to the expedition of Goryeo, and many soldiers were damaged. Emperor Taizong Li Shimin conquered the Eastern Turks and Xueyantuo, conquered Gaochang, Kucha and Tuyuhun. Although he severely damaged Goguryeo, he was unable to do his best."

Xu Huizu said at this time, "North Korea seems to be a small country, and its strength is far superior. However, it is not inferior to Liaodong. Once the local area becomes cold early, the grass is dry and the water is frozen, and the soldiers and horses will inevitably be difficult to stay for a long time. Once the food and grass are cut off, it is not bad to be able to return to the entire army, but I am afraid that the soldiers will be damaged and the generals will be lost."

This can be considered a fact. The weather has become colder, and it is not easy to conquer North Korea.

Besides, although the current civil strife in North Korea is now, including the usurpation of the throne in the past few years, North Korea has been constantly fighting all kinds of wars since the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and it is still somewhat powerful.

"So Grandpa also said that this time, you must achieve the best in one battle to attack North Korea." Zhu Yunyou said seriously, "Once spring begins and warms up, the court will send troops immediately. It is best if you can conquer North Korea before winter comes. If you can't, prepare for winter in advance."

The territory you have fought must be occupied, and you must not take it back by North Korea after it becomes bigger.

It would be better if we could take over the Korean Peninsula in one go. If it doesn't work, prepare for the winter in advance. A temporary confrontation between the court can be considered as a waste of money.

After all, it was the same thing that the Ming Dynasty was strong and the most important thing was that the food and grass were sufficient. Moreover, in the places in Liaodong, there were many soldiers who could adapt to the cold, and Nahachu's descendants had always been stationed in Liaodong.

What's more, the imperial court has been promoting cotton in the early years. Preparing these things in advance does not only mean that the people of the Ming Dynasty have quilts and cotton coats. These are actually hopes that the border troops of the Ming Dynasty can maintain combat effectiveness in the cold winter.

The emperor said so clearly, and Xu Huizu naturally knew what to do. He was the military pillar that the emperor had high hopes for.
