Hearing Zhu Cihong's words, Wu Zong showed a look of surprise on his face.
He thought of everything else, but Wu Di really didn't think of this.
You know, His Highness the Crown Prince in front of you is the Crown Prince!
Even though the current Ming Dynasty seems to be on the verge of collapse, the Ming Dynasty is preparing to move its capital to Nanjing. At least it will not be difficult to defend the south. From now on, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will still be his His Highness the Crown Prince.
From now on, after taking the throne, he will still be prosperous and wealthy.
Occupying a place? Training troops? Building high walls and hoarding grain?
Is this something that a prince can think of?
But soon, a light flashed in Wu Yan's eyes, and a look of contemplation appeared on his face. He looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and asked: "Where is the place that His Highness the Crown Prince chose?"
"Then which place does Mr. Wu think will be better?"
Zhu Cixiang did not answer Wu Zong's words, but asked Wu Zong in front of him with a smile on his face.
Wu Di knew very well that His Highness the Crown Prince was testing his own vision!
He glanced at a map in front of the hall.
"There is a saying in Go that says: Golden horns, silver edges, grass belly! This sentence can be applied to this. The best place is a place where you can attack when you advance, and defend when you retreat!"
As he spoke, Wu Ding pointed his finger at Shandong.
"Shandong! This place is the most suitable!"
With a smile on his face, Wu Zong looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said.
Hearing Wu Zong's words, Zhu Cixiang clapped his hands gently. With a smile on his face, he looked at Wu Zong in front of him and said, "Master Wu, welcome to join us!"
"But the key now is that there are not many people in Shandong, and powerful people and bandits are everywhere. If we enter Shandong, we will face a lot of problems!"
Wu Di frowned, looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said.
"That's true, but where in the world is there a perfect place?"
Zhu Cixi said helplessly to Wu Yan in front of him.
After hearing Zhu Cihong's words, Wu Yan sighed slightly in his eyes.
In fact, there is one thing that he has not said yet, that is, he feels that it is already a bit late to run Shandong at this time.
When the capital move is completed, Li Zicheng's army will definitely begin to march towards the entire north. By then, without sufficient military strength, how can they fight against Li Zicheng's hundreds of thousands of troops?
With that five thousand troops whose training time is still short?
It’s still too hasty!
Thinking of this, Wu Yan frowned tightly, while he was still thinking about dealing with Li Zicheng.
Zhu Cixiang looked at Wu Di's frown. He smiled slightly, looked at Wu Di and said, "Is Mr. Wu worried about Li Zihe's hundreds of thousands of troops? Afraid that he will attack with all his troops?"
"yes!"
Wu Yan nodded, looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said.
"Hahaha! Master Wu, don't worry too much, Li Zicheng doesn't dare to do this!"
Zhu Cixiang looked at Wu Zong in front of him with a slight smile and said.
"One of the most important reasons why Li Zicheng dared to surround Beijing with more than 100,000 troops this time was that Qin Liangyu and Zhang Xianzhong were fighting in Bashu. Li Zicheng did not have to worry about Zhang Xianzhong sneaking up on him. The two of them had a long-standing feud and were basically irreconcilable.
This time, the 100,000-strong army is already the last time he has mobilized all the troops. The other armies still need to be dispersed in various places for guarding!"
After hearing Zhu Cihong's words, Wu Yan nodded thoughtfully.
"Then there's the situation!"
Zhu Cihong smiled, looked at Wu Zong in front of him and said, "Even if Zuo Liangyu wants to be a warlord, he still has to see if his 200,000 soldiers really obey him! When the time comes, I can ask my father to come down
Purpose, Zuo Liangyu's army can all be granted the title of marquis based on their military merits.
Do you think that at that time, Zuo Liangyu could still suppress his subordinates from sending troops?"
Wu Yan's eyes lit up, a smile appeared on his face, he looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said: "Two peaches kill three soldiers! Wonderful! This is a very clever plan!"
Zhu Cixiang didn't have much pride on his face, he just said calmly: "It's nothing, Zuo Liangyu's army is not a very powerful army, its military discipline is lax, and it doesn't obey orders. It's basically the behavior of a warlord!
Zuo Liangyu, damn it!
"You really deserve to die! But you shouldn't die now!"
There was a trace of emotion in Wu Yan's eyes, and he said to Zhu Cixiang in front of him.
"kindness!"
Zhu Cixi nodded in agreement.
"Sir, I want you to go to Shandong for me first and make a forward stop!"
Zhu Cixiang pondered for a moment, looked at Wu Yi in front of him and said.
"Can!"
Wu Di did not refuse.
At this time, Cheng Hao said to Wu Di in front of him: "I don't have any extra soldiers for you, but I can give you fifty guards in royal robes. These people can protect your life!"
"enough!"
A free and easy smile appeared on Wu Zong's face.
"Then sir, you should know what you should pay attention to when entering Shandong this time, right?"
Zhu Cixi looked at Wu Yan in front of him and said.
"Know!"
"Okay! I'll leave everything to you, sir!"
Zhu Cixiang bowed deeply to Wu Yan in front of him!
Wu Di accepted it calmly!
After the two discussed some matters, Wu Yan said to Zhu Cihong in front of him: "Your Highness, this matter should be arranged sooner rather than later. Arrange for me as soon as possible!"
"kindness!"
"I will enter the palace now and tell my father that I will appoint you as the governor of Shandong and take charge of all military and political affairs in Shandong!"
Zhu Cixiang said to Wu Yan in front of him.
"Yes! Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Wu Di nodded.
Every little bit of time now is very important. Zhu Cixiang knows very well that he must not delay it!
After the two chatted for a while.
Zhu Cixiang decisively entered the palace and told Chongzhen about the incident.
Emperor Chongzhen naturally did not stop his son and readily agreed. Although everyone in the cabinet did not know how Wu Zong, the former deputy minister of the cabinet, offended Emperor Chongzhen.
Just after being recalled, a Shandong governor was directly banned!
If the capital is really moved, then Shandong will almost be an abandoned place...
The bandit forces have already invaded Henan. After the capital is moved, it is very likely that the bandits will go straight into Shandong. By then, it will be too difficult to defend this place!
Although many people were hesitant, only Li Yuzhi and Chongzhen mentioned it in the cabinet.
However, Chongzhen still insisted on letting Wu Dong defend Shandong, and Li Yuzhi had no choice but to make arrangements.
The cabinet votes are drawn, and the chief ceremonial director wears red.
The next day, the imperial edict came down.
Last night, Zhu Cihong and Wu Di had a long talk all night and basically determined the short-term development direction!
Wu Zong left the capital and headed for Shandong. He was accompanied by fifty Jinyiwei soldiers given to him by Zhu Cixiang.
With Wu Yan going to Shandong, Zhu Cixiang felt a little relieved. At least when he went to Shandong, he should be able to see a cleaner Shandong.
When the time comes to reform Shandong, the resistance encountered may not be that great!
