As expected by Shi Heng and the others, before noon the next day, news came from the east of Shenyang that more than 20,000 straight women were heading toward Shenyang with murderous intent. After hearing the news , Shi Heng couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and Yang Jun was ordered to leave Shenyang and join up with the cavalry of the Emperor's personal army who were ambushing in the dense forest south of Shenyang City. There were a total of 12,000 elite cavalry of the Emperor's personal army stationed there. As long as they receive the news from Shenyang, they will attack as soon as possible and deal a devastating blow to those Jianzhou straight women.
However, Yang Jun seemed a little resentful after hearing Shi Heng's instructions, because Shi Heng told him exactly. After receiving the order, he could go out and beat up those Jianzhou straight women, but he could not kill them all. If they were killed, how could these guys be driven to the Kingdom of Korea, and how could the evil plan of Zhu Qizhen, the great emperor of tomorrow, be implemented?
However, although Yang Jun was a little dissatisfied in his heart, as an excellent soldier, he still decided to strictly abide by Shi Heng's general orders. More importantly, he was also eager to make achievements. The mere establishment of a female straight woman was nothing more than It was just a small gadget used to sacrifice swords to the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. How could it compare with the Korean Kingdom, which after occupying the land of thousands of miles in the Ming Dynasty, was greedy and dissatisfied and wanted to march north to Liaodong?
As Zhu Qizhen's confidant, Zhu Qizhen did not hide his desire and ambition for land from Yang Jun. He even encouraged and inspired the people around him, wanting to influence them and make them also full of expansion. Ambition and strong aggression.
In this regard, Yang Jun was one of the Ming Dynasty soldiers who was deeply infected by Zhu Qizhen's thoughts. As a soldier, he naturally has more blood and strong nerves than a literati. Therefore, Zhu Qizhen's It may not be popular with those civil servants who talk about the Four Books of Concubine and the Letter of Benevolence, Righteousness, Reason and Reason all day long, but it was surprisingly well received and loved by the military of the Ming Dynasty.
No matter which dynasty, military merit has always been important, and the Song Dynasty seemed to be an exception. However, Song Taizu also swore that if someone could take back the Sixteen States of Yunyan, he would be crowned king. But what, the power of the civil servants in the Song Dynasty was far away. Higher than the military ministers, they valued literature over martial arts, which was simply performed to the extreme in the Song Dynasty.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the military officials deservedly had the upper hand. However, under Zhu Yuanzhang's iron-fisted purge, the military officials withered away, and the civil servants gradually stepped forward and became a force that could compete with the military officials. the power of.
one……,
But then, Zhu Di jumped forward and once again gave the military ministers the upper hand. However, these military ministers who had established meritorious deeds gradually transformed into another category, that is, the nobles.
As Xungui and the military, they are still inextricably linked, but as time passes, they gradually lose their spirit. After the Tumu Fort Incident, the Xungui Group suffered heavy losses. It can be said that in the At least nearly half of the Ming Dynasty's nobles who had military power and real power were lost in the battle of Tumubao.
The emperor was captured and an army of 200,000 was reduced to ashes. Although the main reason was that Zhu Qizhen, a second-rate emperor, had a weak ear and insisted on listening to that dead eunuch Wang Zhen. But the problem was that most of those nobles were veterans of the army. If a general says that the superior is at fault, he must be rebuked with all his life, and he must explain to the emperor which strategies of marching and fighting are wrong, which are unacceptable and will lead to death.
Of course, it is not that no one has given advice, but the problem is that the final consequences are on the battlefield, so the backbone of the military as the main force on the battlefield: Xungui will naturally be criticized.
After that, many of the captured nobles finally returned to the Ming Dynasty with the help of Zhu Qizhen. However, after all, they were a group of defeated generals who were humiliated. And it was precisely because of Zhu Qizhen that they
Hanxuan had just been released and returned to the Ming Dynasty. Because of this, the new emperor Zhu Qiyu naturally did not have any good impressions of these noble ministers who not only lost the battle but were also grateful to Zhu Qizhen who had been captured and abdicated.
.
So after Zhu Qiyu came to power, he naturally took advantage of the mutual dissatisfaction between civil and military officials to suppress the nobles. The civil servants who were originally suppressed by the nobles finally had strong help.
Naturally, he spares no effort to be a fighter.
In the history that Zhu Qizhen is familiar with, it was after the Tumubao Incident that the noble military ministers were depressed. In the middle and late period, the Ming Dynasty court was very good at intrigues, fond of party fighting, and suppressed civil servants who had dissent.
The group has full control.
After there were no more foreign enemies, the Ming Dynasty's civil servant group no longer shared the same hatred as at the beginning, and began to fight among themselves. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the Chu Party, the Zhejiang Party, and the Donglin Party... In short, the adjective for forming a party for private gain was
, used to apply to the civil servant group in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, it is really just right.
This is why Emperor Chongzhen lamented like that at the last moment. Perhaps, many people would shout loudly, "It's not because of you, the emperor, that you have demoted or killed all the heroes."
But the problem is, as a young man who lived in prison in a palace, and then went directly to the palace to become the emperor of tomorrow, he has not experienced any ups and downs, let alone the sufferings of the people.
Everything he knows is what the ministers want him, the emperor, to know. No matter what, he was able to take down Wei Zhongxian when he first came to power. This method has repeatedly proved that he is not a fool, but the ministers around him
Their eyes were busy glaring at the power that was vacated after Wei Zhongxian fell. This was one of the important reasons for the tragedy of the Ming Dynasty.
In this historical time and space, Zhu Qizhen came to power several years in advance. Moreover, as a time traveler who is familiar with the historical trends of later generations, Zhu Qizhen knows very well that in this era, or in other words, the decline of the Ming Empire, it can be said that a considerable part of the responsibility lies with the fall of the Ming Dynasty.
On that civil servant group.
Therefore, before Zhu Qizhen returned to the capital, he first trained his troops in the Xuan Mansion, and in addition, he had rescued those nobles before and deliberately befriended the military ministers. In this way, he showed the world how he and Zhu Qiyu treated the Ming Dynasty.
The warriors had a different attitude.
It is precisely because of this that the troops in the border towns of the Ming Dynasty turned to Zhu Qi Town, and the reason why Shi Heng turned to Zhu Qi Town has to be said to be an important reason.
Nowadays, among the civil and military officials in Beijing, although many civil servants are dissatisfied with Zhu Qizhen's attitude towards Zhu Qiyu, the problem is that Zhu Qizhen is not the Zhu Qizhen of the past.
Nowadays, the metaphor that the emperor is as bold and decisive as Taizu, heroic and fierce, and has extraordinary military tactics is often mentioned by people, and it is exactly this metaphor that makes those civil servants swallow their complaints for the time being.
In the belly, after all, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were the founders of the country, and the other was the famous Emperor Ma. These two killed ministers without mercy. It can be said that the father and son were almost irresistible.
Score high and low.
one……,
Therefore, these civil and military ministers are not stupid. At least Zhu Qizhen did not do anything wrong that made people angry, let alone anything extraordinary. Even if he built a small villa in Zhongnanhai, it did not cost the national treasury.
One tael of silver, so since they, the great contestants, couldn't catch any of Zhu Qizhen's sore feet, they could only stare blankly.
After all, as a minister, you can't be rude and make trouble by saying that the emperor's improper use of funds will undermine the dignity of the heavenly family. Your posture when drinking tea is wrong and affect the image of the royal family. Well, this kind of nitpicking thing, the imperial censor of the Ming Dynasty
We can still do it.
But for Zhu Qizhen, an emperor with a face as thick as a city wall, what can such an attack do? Even mosquitoes don't bother to flap their wings for such a trivial matter, and Zhu Qizhen naturally won't do it for this.
To put it in the simplest terms: if a little kid is holding a toy gun on a flat ground, you can't just kick him into the mud pit and beat him up, right?
Zhu Qizhen ignored him and didn't even get angry. This made those ministers who wanted to take the court staff, scold him with angry faces, or headbutt the dragon court to increase their reputation, but they couldn't help but feel like a dog biting a hedgehog with nowhere to bite.
.
But he didn't dare to do it in a big way. After all, Shi Heng and other heroes who helped him seize the throne were directly ordered by Zhu Qizhen to shut up and think about their mistakes because of intrigues, and were later sent to Liaodong. Therefore, these ministers knew very well that they could fight in small ways.
Yes, but no one wants to make fun of their own future. If they are buried, they will not regret selling the medicine at that time.
During this period of relative calm in the court, Zhu Qizhen seemingly relegated Shi Heng to Liaodong, bringing with him 20,000 to 30,000 troops, which did not arouse the vigilance and opposition of the court ministers.
Of course, Zhu Qizhen didn't want the court to turn into chaos before he launched troops against North Korea, so Zhu Qizhen decided to conceal it. After all, many ministers were not convinced about the Ming Dynasty's victory over Wasi and the leveling of the grassland.
Although they praised him a lot, some people thought that Zhu Qizhen just took advantage of the civil strife in Waci. If Waci worked together and integrated the inside and outside, whether Zhu Qizhen could conquer the grassland is not only unknown, but also the continuous struggle.
Before the grassland was evened out, it was beaten back to its original shape again.
To be honest, there are quite a lot of people with such thoughts and ideas. Some even stupid people think that Zhu Qizhen won the tiles by relying on those intrigues and tricks. He is really not the master of the king in the center.
What should be done.
If Zhu Qizhen jumped out in the court and clamored to destroy North Korea, at least 80% of the ministers would stand up and strongly oppose it. By then, Zhu Qizhen would have a headache.
Maybe Shi Heng and Yang Jun would not be able to leave the capital at all, let alone now with their fangs outstretched, waiting for the Jianzhou female straight and the Korean Kingdom to take the bait.
Standing on the top of the city, waiting for the Jianzhou Nüzhi to invade, Shi Heng, who was full of emotions, did not wait for long. Soon, a Jianzhou Nüzhi cavalry of about five thousand took the lead to open the way, and more than 20,000 Jianzhou Nüzhi cavalry opened the way.
Nuzhi appeared at the foot of Shenyang City with murderous intent.
Looking at this female straight army that was drooling over Shenyang, the important town in northern Liaoning, Shi Heng's lips curled up in a contemptuous arc. "After today, I will make it clear that there will be no place for Jianzhou straight women in the territory, and in the near future
In the future, I'm afraid North Korea will also turn into smoke."
Hearing this, Cao Yi grinned, his white teeth flashing with cold light, like a beast that chooses and devours people.!
