Chapter 037 Who convinces whom (3 more than 10,000)

Ma Jin was in a panic, but Zheng Luo and Jia Yingyuan were actually not much better.

To know the strength comparison that Ma Jin could analyze, how could they not know that the two border ministers had served in Shanxi for many years? So they also felt that Gao Pragmatism's idea was dangerous.

Being very dangerous does not mean that you cannot succeed, nor does it mean that there will be little benefit after success. It means that the probability of success is low, and the problems after failure are very serious.

As border ministers, especially the border ministers of the Ming Dynasty, they generally had nothing to do with opening up territories and so on, but they had the responsibility to defend the territory.

In other words, even if a high-pragmatic plan succeeds, the great merit in it will undoubtedly belong to high pragmatism. To compare it to the saying that praises Cao Zhi, it is "the merits are one stone, and the high pursuit of truth is the only one."

Their group of border ministers, and even the border generals and border troops, together they are not sure whether they can account for the remaining two battles - because the elders must still have a part of the credit for "strategy planning".

The above, for them, is called little benefit.

But the little benefit is still a small problem. The big problem is that if it fails, the responsibility will be huge!

Just imagine, if Hannaji and Jongkin Hatun fail, no matter whether Gao Pragmatic himself is dead or not, even if he is not dead, if Hannaji and Jongkin Hatun, the two strong advocates of the Ming-Meng mutual market, lose their status, the future mutual market will

what to do?

Due to the failure of the canonization, the Ming Dynasty must stop mutual trading even for the sake of face - this is the conduct of the Ming Dynasty, this is for sure.

This mutual trade is the key to peace between Ming and Meng. Once it stops, can the love of gains and losses be tolerated? He can't bear it, and Ming can't let it go. Is there any need to talk about the result? He can only fight.

Peace is hard-won. Once the war breaks out, the good situation of Shanxi in the past ten years will be gone! So many fertile fields that have been opened up will be gone, and the people who have lost their land will become refugees again, and they will have to give up their land.

Causing chaos and causing trouble to the court...this is all trouble!

What's more, there is a more critical point: when there is no war, even if the border ministers have no merit, at least they will not have any outstanding achievements. Everyone can stay in their positions for a few years and should be promoted or promoted. Hello, I am good to everyone.

Well, isn't it beautiful? Why fight with those poor and scumbag Mongolians!

Damn it, the Mongols can plunder everything from gold, silver, cloth, food and people. But even if the Han army wins, what else can they gain except a few heads? How many can they rob?

Ten horses, hundreds of cattle and sheep, how can you say you can harvest that thing? Damn it, you can make ten times the profit by just opening a market, okay! You think you are an official who can't read?

Moreover, if a certain place falls, what will happen to the responsibility of defending the territory? When the court investigates it, of course only military generals will die, but civil servants will also lose their official positions!

Therefore, no matter how you calculate this account, it is more likely to be a loss.

As the Governor of Xuanda and a person promoted by Wang Chonggu, Zheng Luo was considered one of the core figures of the Jin Party. Supported by Zhang Siwei's letters, he couldn't say anything too pessimistic for the moment, so he could only remain silent, frowning, and looking bitter.

The look of thinking hard.

Jia Yingyuan is different. Before he became the governor of Datong, he was the deputy envoy of Shanxi. His entire tenure in Shanxi was long or short. This year is exactly eight years - he was appointed as the prefect of Yangzhou in February of the second year of Wanli.

After being promoted to deputy envoy to Shanxi, he joined the Jin Party.

In other words, he is not a die-hard Jin Party member like Zheng Luo. To a certain extent, he had to join the Jin Party banner because he was an official in Shanxi.

Moreover, Jia Yingyuan was relatively better at internal affairs than military affairs. In his early years, he managed a brick and tile factory, served as the prefect of Jinan and the prefect of Yangzhou, and was known for his shrewdness in domestic affairs.

After arriving in Shanxi, he served as the military commander (deputy envoys usually also served as military commanders), and his official position was "deputy envoy to organize Leping, Guanfanzhi, Wutai, Yanmenguan and Tuntian". It can be seen from the map that Yanmenguan was at this time

It is not a first-line defense zone, but a "second-line Great Wall". In addition, the tribute tribute has been completed for several years at this time, so the defense of Yanmen Pass is actually focused on building the city wall. Besides building the city wall, his real main task is

In fact, it is farming.

Civil servants who are good at internal affairs, except for time-travelers like Gao Jingshi, are basically not very happy subconsciously about practices that may lead to war, because once a war breaks out, they will change from insiders to laymen.

, can easily lead to mistakes, and Jia Yingyuan is certainly no exception.

Therefore, when Liu Ping looked calm, Ma Jin did not dare to speak, and Zheng Luo was silent, Jia Yingyuan had no choice but to cough lightly and speak: "His Majesty Gao, it would be great if this matter can be accomplished, but at the moment, it seems that it is uncertain.

There are too many factors, do we still need to consider it in the long term?”

The word "long-term consideration" is a good one and is very euphemistic, but since we are not new to officialdom, everyone can hear that this is a synonym for "reconsider".

Gao pragmatic smiled and said: "Mr. Chunyu (Jia Yingyuan's nickname is Chunyu), may I ask you what aspects you feel are most uncertain?"

Jia Yingyuan knew as soon as he heard that Gao Jingshi was unwilling to give up, but he couldn't give in on such a big matter. Even if he knew the potential power behind Gao Jingshi, he could only bite the bullet and say: "Well, the most important thing is naturally

It’s about whether Han Naji can win against Xin Ai.”

Jia Yingyuan frowned and said: "Banghan Naji is definitely a man who loves the Ming Dynasty, but after all, he is not a veteran in the army, and he is Anda's grandson. In terms of strength, he may not be stronger than Xin Ai;

Due to the power, he has no righteousness. In this way, even if Zhongjin Hatun is married to help, I am afraid that he may not be Xin Ai's opponent. What if he loses, what will happen then? "

Gao pragmatically said: "Great justice? There are two things that can ensure great justice: First, since I was canonized by my Ming Dynasty, who will succeed King Shunyi? Is it not that I, the Ming Dynasty, have the final say, but they themselves have the final say?"

Since I carried the emperor’s edict to Tumote, the emperor’s edict is a great righteousness!”

"Secondly, the Mongolian side is now the head of the Yellow Sect. I myself died in Dazhao Temple, and his Khan title was also given to him by the leader of the Yellow Sect... In this way, I, the Ming Dynasty, only need to convince the Yellow Sect to convert Zan Kela

The title of Valdi Chechen Khan is conferred on Bahannaji. Isn’t this great honor determined?”

Jia Yingyuan could not refute these two points. Of course, he did not dare to say that the effectiveness of the emperor's edict was useless, and he was also relatively clear about the influence of the Ming Dynasty on the Yellow Sect, so he had to change the topic back and said: "What about the war situation? Mongolia Zidayan

After Khan, the eldest son has always inherited the title, just like me in the Ming Dynasty. Now that I am dead, Xin Ai should naturally inherit his title. This involves not only the righteousness in our eyes, but also the Mongolian tradition.

In addition, Chaterji has always been Anda's loyal dog. If he thinks that after Anda's death, the Great Khan should be Xin Ai...

Gao Shizhong has dealt with Qatai Ji before, so he should know this person's temperament, and his determination is not easy to change. And with his prestige, once he helps Xin Ai, the power gap will be even greater."

Gao Pragmatic said calmly: "It is not difficult to convince Chatterjee."

Not only Jia Yingyuan was surprised, but Zheng Luo, Liu Ping and Ma Jin were also surprised. They looked at Gao Pragmatic, waiting for his explanation.

Gao pragmatically said: "First of all, Anda did not leave any will or testament. Qataiji himself was not at Dazhao Temple at that time. The only people who waited on Anda were people from Zhongjinhatun."

Jia Yingyuan asked curiously: "What then?"

Gao pragmatic smiled and said: "Zhongjin Hatun also has various seals, golden orders and other items belonging to Anda. In other words... it is easy for her to make a will."

Jia Yingyuan was stunned for a moment and said: "This... is equivalent to correcting the imperial edict."

"Correcting the imperial edict?" Gao Pingshi laughed and said, "How come it is correcting the imperial edict? I had something to say before Ida Khan died, and I could only tell Zhongjin Hatun. Zhongjinhatun said he had said it, and he said it,

If you say he didn't say it, he didn't say it. Besides, after I died and before the new Khan was elected, she was the regent. Who dares to question her edict?"

"Besides, Anda is not dissatisfied with the primogeniture system in the first place - of course, I may not be so dissatisfied with his eldest son, but that is for people, not things. For things, I hope to establish virtuous people, and

It's not to establish a leader. Regardless of whether this idea is right or not, it is Anda's idea after all. From the perspective of establishing a virtuous person, Anda's favorite descendant must be Bahan Naji. This is no problem, right? So, Liba

It’s entirely possible that Han Naji is the Great Khan, which is what I meant, so how come I’m pretending to be an edict?”

You are using strong words to make sense!

Jia Yingyuan said angrily in his heart, but this is a discussion, and swearing is definitely not allowed. Besides, everyone's starting point is generally to be good to Ming Dynasty. Even if Gao Pragmatic "does whatever it takes", Jia Futai cannot say that he is wrong.

Therefore, Jia Yingyuan turned the question back and asked again: "In this way, Qataiji will not help Xin Ai, but turn to Bahan Naji?"

Gao pragmatic shook his head and said: "Maybe it's possible, maybe it's not possible, so for the sake of safety, I need to see Chatterjee in person and talk to him face to face."
