Fan Biao had long ago warned the soldiers around him, asking him to tell all his brothers not to move. Hundreds of his own people were already in a desperate situation. Life or death depended on that little baby's thoughts.
The news spread among the remaining four to five hundred people.
After witnessing Baozong being chopped unconscious, no one moved.
Silly.
Come on now?
What I saw just now was not accurate, but now everyone can see clearly that the three hundred people behind the ten-year-old child are all strong young men of about twenty years old. Even if they are all cavalry, the key is that everyone is covered in armor, with the left waist
A crossbow is attached to the right waist of the sword, and there is a fire blunderbuss on the back.
This equipment is simply abnormal.
The few hundred of us are not enough for others to fire a volley of firecrackers and crossbows.
Zhu Jianji waved his hand.
Zhao Er and Li Jiu immediately led 300 Donggong infantry troops with galloping horses, surrounded hundreds of rebel soldiers and drove them aside. Chen Qi led Dai Yi, Zhao Mu, Bai Qingzhi and other seven people to guard the side.
At the very back, there was a man dressed like a military doctor. He was gearing up and seemed ready for a big fight.
Zhu Jianji looked at Chen Qi.
Chen Qi said with a smile: "I fainted, your Highness, don't worry, I won't wake up in a while."
Zhu Jianji hummed and waved to Fan Biao.
Fan Biao immediately stepped forward, stood side by side with Xie Wan, and said: "There are many people with mixed eyesight. Please forgive me, Your Highness. I am not being polite because of my humble position."
Zhu Jianji nodded, "It should be so."
Then he said to Xie Wan: "What did Wu An tell you?"
Xie Wan bent down slightly and said softly: "Cooperate with the generals and troops in the army commanded by Wu Du to cut off the remnants of Jianwen first, then follow Baozong, and follow His Highness's instructions next."
Zhu Jianji said: "You have done a good job this time. In terms of merit, it is more than enough to enter the imperial court, go to the Sixth Department and be a doctor or chief. But just because you have done a good job, Gu still needs you to continue to be by his side."
.”
This time the rebellion was put down without any effort, and Wu An took the greatest credit.
But Xie Wan is the most important person.
After Wu An contacted Xie Wan in private, he offered Xie Wan an offer that he could not refuse. He did not promise to give high-ranking officials a generous salary. He only said that if you can complete this matter, how high you can be in the court depends on you.
Ability, but the starting point is to be a gifted Jinshi, bypassing the Imperial Academy and local appointment process, and directly entering the Sixth Central Department as a senior official at the director level.
I have to admit that Wu An has been here for many years and has a good grasp of the mentality of scholars.
Xie Wan followed Zhu Zunxi, humble and proud.
For such a scholar, if you directly promise to be a senior official in the Sixth Ministry, he may reject you out of his literary character and show disdain, but you just give him a chance to work hard on his own, with the pride and self-reliance of a scholar, but instead
You will feel respected.
The thank you party gave me a greater sense of accomplishment.
Moreover, failing in the imperial examination is the biggest pain in the heart of a scholar like Xie Wan. Giving him an Enke Jinshi is more tempting to him than money.
Xie Wan only considered it for a few days and agreed.
After that, the Fujian side will be the stage for Wu An and Xie Wan.
Wu An was responsible for the layout of the army, and Xie Wan was responsible for Zhu Zunxi and Baozong. When he later decided to go south to encircle Zhu Jianji's troops in Yongchun, he was the one who sent the news.
After that, Zhu Jianji immediately focused on the layout.
Only then did we achieve today’s complete victory.
Xie Wan smiled and said: "The common people have expected it and are mentally prepared. The commander of Wudu has said that His Majesty and His Highness are not killing the Bao Sect. The common people are bold and presume to speculate on the holy will."
He also said: "Hu Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites spent ten years traveling around the mountains and rivers, and the common people are also willing to follow his example."
Zhu Jianji hummed, Xie Wan was negotiating terms.
I just want to waste ten years on Baozong.
Ten years... I may not be on the throne in ten years, but I am really embarrassed to let Xie Wan waste decades on Baozong. He pondered for a long time and said: "Very good, but after ten years, I am not sure that I will be able to do it again."
Find the right person to replace you."
Xie Wan smiled and said: "Common people can handle this matter."
Zhu Jianji also smiled, "Okay, ten years from now, no matter whether Gu ascends the throne or not at that time, you will have a place in the center of the court. Whether you can reach the height of Hu Hui, Gu will not give you a guarantee, it depends on your ability."
Xie Wan bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."
I secretly cursed in my heart, because of His Highness the Crown Prince's behavior, I am afraid that in the future I, the Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty, will not openly talk about ascending the throne. In the eyes of outsiders, isn't this just hoping that His Majesty Jingtai will die soon.
Zhu Jianji asked Xie Wan, "Where do you plan to take Baozong?"
Xie Wan said: "Listen to His Highness's instructions."
Zhu Jianji: "I just want to hear your opinion."
Xie Wan thought for a while and said: "If His Highness wants to be a conservative king, the common people can take the Baozong to Penghu and Taiwan. If His Highness wants to be a king who expands the territory, the common people can take the Baozong to Jiaozhi and other places, or even
You can also go to North Korea.”
North Korea is not easy to deal with.
Because it has always been a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, there is no reason for it to be strong enough to silence everyone, and there is no way to use troops against it.
Zhu Jianji was a little surprised, Xie Wan had some discernment.
Said: "Go to Taiwan first, manage Taiwan well and firmly control it, then go to Cochin and the countries surrounding Cochin, then go to Japan, and finally go to North Korea."
Xie Wan was inexplicably shocked and couldn't help blurting out, "Your Highness has such great ambitions!"
Zhu Jianji, "Huh?"
Xie Wan realized that he had made a mistake and wanted to kneel down, but Zhu Jianji glared at him.
Xie Wan woke up, stopped in time, and bent down slightly, "It's a common man's mistake. Your Highness has great ambitions. I am lucky for the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Jianji hummed.
That's pretty much it.
He glanced at Fan Biao next to him and said, "You also have to contribute to this perfect ending this time. I heard Wu An wrote that you are in your thirties, which is the peak of your life. However, I will not favor one thing over another, so I only use
Ten years from now, you will have your place in the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, but I still have hope for you. In the past ten years, no matter where you follow Xie Wan and the others, you will not only stare at them with both civil and military skills.
The fort is so simple, but you still have to establish a local career. For example, if you go to Taiwan this time, if you can firmly control the entire Taiwan within three to five years, you will personally lead troops to take over."
Fan Biao grinned, "Aren't you worried, Your Highness?"
Since Xie Wan and I have firmly controlled Taiwan, we are still the masters of one party, so how can we willingly submit to others again?
Zhu Jianji chuckled, "Do you think I will be worried?"
I still have this little bit of confidence.
Fan Biao shook his head, "I don't know."
Zhu Jianji had a smile on his face, but was as vicious as a viper, "Gu Daming will focus on building a powerful maritime army. It won't take many years. When the time comes, we can defeat you in Taiwan. It will only take a matter of minutes."
Fan Biao looked awe-inspiring and did not dare to speak.
Zhu Jianji continued: "Fan Biao, I have great expectations for you. Follow Xie Wan and lead these five hundred loyal people to fight. I hope that one day, you can become the champion of my Ming Dynasty.
!”
Fan Biao laughed loudly, "I will keep in mind His Highness' high expectations and will do my best!"
Champion?
To use the Sichuan dialect, Your Highness is washing my head.
