Chapter 389 Alone as a bait?

Zhu Yunxi's attitude and views on Lan Yu have always been complicated.

Counting the generals in command of the Ming army today, after King Zhongshan and King Kaiping passed away one after another, Sapphire is already a well-deserved No.1.

This is also the reason why Zhu Yunxi went to the northwest and summoned Lan Yu to lead the troops out of Tongguan eastward after the White Lotus Sect rebels set up an ambush in Xuzhou Mansion before reaching Henan Road.

In terms of military strategy, today's Ming Dynasty is unsurpassed.

However, this is the No. 1 of the Ming army, but it is not like the late Zhongshan King and Kaiping King who obeyed the rules and knew how to advance and retreat.

Sapphire is unruly.

It can even be said to be insane.

At an age far more powerful than King Zhongshan and King Kaiping, he achieved achievements that neither of them had achieved before, which undoubtedly gave Lan Yu great confidence.

This self-confidence gave Lan Yu a defiant attitude.

The old man can hold down Sapphire, and the prince's father can also hold Sapphire down.

But what about yourself?

Zhu Yunxi has always had doubts, whether he can hold Lan Yu in his hands?
This is not based on human will.

Since ancient times, there are also countless lessons learned from the past, which can be taken as a warning for today's people.

This time, Lan Yu beheaded the rebels and rebels in Shengchi County and Xin'an County in front of the battle. From the perspective of the army, Zhu Yunxi had no place or reason to comment.

Now that the rebellion in Henan Province is raging, the imperial army and horses cannot be fully invested in Henan Province and Shandong Province, and need to guard against other places.If Sapphire falls into a restricted situation in the west of Henan Road, it will undoubtedly increase the pressure and difficulty of advancing on Muying in the south.

Soldiers are precious and fast, try to ensure the simplicity and attack speed of the army. This is Lan Yu's military strategy for suppressing the rebellion in the western part of Henan Province without expressing it.

However, in addition to considering matters above military strategy, Zhu Yunxi also had to consider the influence above government affairs.

As Xiaopang said, the tough counter-insurgency strategy will cause the rebels and rebels in Henan Province from the outside to cut off the possibility of surrender and choose to resist to the end instead.

Zhu Yunxi glanced at Xiaopang, but did not choose to answer his question.

The two brothers looked at each other.

Zhu Gaochi snorted twice: "Actually, you don't care what the court thinks at all."

As he spoke, Zhu Gaochi kicked a raised brick on the city wall with his toe.

Zhu Yunxi hummed.

Zhu Gaochi continued: "The general put down the rebellion with a tough attitude. In your opinion, no matter what kind of impact it will have, it is far less important than the benefits.

Because you want to use Henan Dao as an example this time, your goal is to completely break and reshape Henan Dao from top to bottom.

Only when the general kills more people, those people will be truly afraid of being killed, can he ensure the stability and peace of Ming Dynasty for at least 30 years, or even 50 years.Otherwise, you wouldn't have ordered the general to lead the troops back east before Henan Road had exposed so many problems. "

Xiaopang kept repeating the questions, and Zhu Yunxi quietly watched the other party, listening to the other party's cocooning.

Wait until Xiaopang no longer speaks.

Only then did Zhu Yunxi nod his head: "When this matter is over, the general will be able to return to Beijing, and go to the lecture hall to teach a few generations of martial arts students in a down-to-earth manner."

Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi immediately hummed twice, with an expression of 'I care about seeing through you' on his face.

"Look, you've even thought about how to be good to the general."

Zhu Gaochi shook his head: "The general put down the rebellion in Henan Province. This is a great achievement, but can the court still be crowned king? Then he is charged with murder, and the merits and demerits are equal?
If you punish martial arts students who have been taught in the martial arts hall for a few years, maybe you will look for an opportunity to change the title of the general when the general's heart is really mature and prudent, and then use it again.

After all, the Great General Lan of our Ming Dynasty is very young and strong now. "

"If you are the master of our Ming Dynasty, you will definitely be respected by everyone." Zhu Yunxi suddenly expressed his approval sincerely.

Zhu Gaochi shook his head again and again, with a surprised and terrified expression: "I still want to live a few more years, and when I am no longer useful, you can find me a good place to retire in peace."

At this moment, there are a few more riders outside the city, carrying morning dew on their backs, rushing towards Kaifeng City from a distant official road.

The cavalry passed through the city gate and entered the city gate hole.

The rattling sound echoed endlessly.

Then, the cavalry entered the streets of Kaifeng City, which had become less lively due to the rebellion, and headed towards the Sansi Yamen.

Zhu Yunxie said softly: "The matter of the martial arts hall is very important. I want to truly live forever. With the current plan, I am afraid it will be difficult to come true. As long as there is a change, a real change may have a chance."

Ten thousand generations is too long, it is just a slogan of Zhu Yunxie.

As long as he can survive five or six hundred years in peace, the Ming Dynasty at that time will surely gain everyone's attention and attention.

No matter how smart Zhu Gaochi was, it was impossible for him to know what Zhu Yunxi was really thinking at the moment.

He changed his subject and said: "The general's merits and demerits are balanced, and he was transferred to the lecture hall to guard his edge. After this time, Marquis Xiping, will he go a step further?

And on the side of Shandong Road, why did Zhang Zhiyuan, the commander of the capital of Peking, lead the troops south?If I remember correctly, my father has attached great importance to him these past few years, and this year my father will go to the north, so it is impossible to let him go south. "

At the end, Zhu Gaochi stared deeply at Zhu Yunxi in front of him, as if unwilling to let go of any subtle expression changes on the other's face.

Zhu Yunxi took two steps forward and looked out of the city. Now it can be regarded as the most peaceful suburb of Kaifeng in the entire Henan Province.

He looked sideways and explained: "Duke Qian, what do you think of this title?"

Zhu Gaochi paused for a moment, and said hesitantly: "Yunnan is also called Guizhou. You want Xipinghou's family to live in Yunnan forever? If so, it's okay."

"The vast territory controlled by Yunnan in the south is now under the conquest of General Chang Dao. Yunnan is also rich in copper and iron, and it is connected to Sichuan and Guangxi in the north. After a few years, Yunnan Dao will be unknowingly During this period, it became the core area in the south of the Ming Dynasty. Do you think that such a Yunnan needs reliable people, the Yongzhen place?"

Zhu Yunxie explained softly, if he remembers correctly, in the original history, in the near future, Yunnan will become a place where countless clan dignitaries from the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty will secretly mine and exchange copper mines.

Copper from Yunnan went north from Yunnan, or took Guangxi Road, or Sichuan Road, and then passed through the Yangtze River and canals, and was transported into private money bags.

It is one of Zhu Yunxi's many plans to strengthen the sense of presence of Yunnan Road above Yingtian Chaotang and strengthen supervision so that it will become the core of the southern part of the Ming Dynasty in the future.

Zhu Gaochi didn't pay much attention to the fact that the Xipinghou family was destined to be promoted to Duke Qian.

The Mu family was originally surnamed Zhu.

Zhu Gaochi smiled, and stared at Zhu Yunxi indifferently: "What about Shandong Road? Zhang Zhiyuan, as the commander of the Beiping capital, is in charge of the mobilization of troops and horses throughout Shandong Road. This matter has also been planned long ago? "

Zhu Yunxi also smiled twice, and looked at Xiaopang calmly: "Zhang Zhiyuan was sent by the fourth uncle. The situation in Shandong Province is actually far more complicated than that in Henan Province. If Zhang Zhiyuan can't grasp enough power in his hands, I'm afraid it will be very difficult Stabilize the situation on Shandong Road."

"Steady?" Zhu Gaochi keenly grasped the key point of Zhu Yunxi's speech: "Do you think it is difficult to completely put down the rebellion in Shandong Province? Are you going to let General Lan and the others lead the troops eastward?"

Zhu Yunxi immediately shook his head: "The chaos in Shandong Road does not lie in Shandong Road, but elsewhere."

That is the Shandong Road, where the saints came from.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes flickered slightly.

Zhu Gaochi thought for a while, and was about to speak, but someone rushed up from under the city wall.

He is the commander of the Si Yamen in the capital of Henan Province.

The visitor went up to the city wall, looked around, and walked over quickly after seeing the traces of the emperor's grandson and Yan Shizi.

"His Royal Highness, there is General Lan's army report in the direction of Luoyang City. Please let Your Highness know the decision."

Hearing this, Zhu Yunxi immediately looked at Fatty next to him suspiciously.

In the direction of Luoyang in the west, Lan Yu's military operation was sent over this morning, but now another military report is sent, which is obviously unreasonable.

Zhu Gaochi shrugged, saying that he didn't know what was going on.

After deliberating to no avail, the two of them signaled to the head of the Dusi Yamen to lead the way.

now.

In the city of Kaifeng, the commander of the capital of Henan Province, the Siyamen, was already arguing like a pot of porridge.

As the place in charge of all the guards and garrison guards in Henan Province, under the current situation of rebellion throughout Henan Province, its strength is extremely weak.

Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Henan Province rebelled, and few people dared to truly believe that the guards in Henan Province could still listen to the imperial court.

Except for Yu Ma, who just transferred from Shangzhiqin Army Habayashiwei to the Henan Metropolitan Commander at the beginning of this year, there are more than 1 soldiers and horses under his command. placed in the ranks of doubt.

It's just that at this moment, the quarrel in the Dusi yamen is not at all about the loyalty of the soldiers and horses of the Henan Daowei Station.

And both sides of the quarrel, at least on the surface, are interesting and unexpected.

The two parties who were arguing were mainly the Yamen, the capital of Henan Province, and the Habayashi Wei, the Shangzhiqin Army, and the two parties did not compromise with each other.

As for Yu Ma and Tang Bi, as colleagues in the Shangzhiqin army, sitting in the White Tiger Hall of the yamen, they looked at each other even more disgustingly.

Since the soldiers and horses of the Dusi Yamen stationed in Gong County, Henan Province, it was difficult to continue westward, so Yu Ma handed over all the troops and horses staying in Gong County to the command of the deputy general, and turned back to Kaifeng City to sit in the Dusi Yamen.

And Tang Bi has always been the leader of the army responsible for defending the safety of the emperor's grandson.

The two parties in the Baihutang were very angry, if they hadn't cared about the officialdom, they might have already fought.

"This is absolutely impossible! We are the swords and swords of the imperial court, guarding the Quartet. At this moment, Henan Road and Shandong Road are in chaos, and the body of His Royal Highness is sitting in Kaifeng. You want us to abandon His Highness and put His Highness at risk. In trouble?"

The one who spoke was Tong Zhi, a member of Tang Bi's commanding officer Habayashi Youwei, who was blushing and extremely agitated. Those traitors rebels.

opposite.

The generals of Henan Dusi Yamen under Yu Ma's command are also fighting each other.

"The prefectures and counties of Henan Province are full of chaos. According to the plan of the general, the world can be determined in one fell swoop. The rebels from all over the Henan Province are attracted to gather in one place, surrounded by a large army. Our army is strong and powerful. The whole world thinks it's back, sweeping away the chaos in a corner."

In the White Tiger Hall, there were still quarrels one after another. Both sides could tell a whole bunch of truths, but neither could convince the other.

Tang Bi sat on the only top chair and ignored the quarrels in the hall. All the quarrels at this time were irrelevant. People in these quarrels only had the right to express their opinions, but not to make decisions.

This is where Daming's sword lies, and it is a place where one can go forward and succeed after one order, and the place where one dies.Not above the court, the princes of Nagungun, even a green-robed speaker can talk about the world.

Tang Bi's attention was on Yu Ma, who was in the other chair.

This fellow who has worked with Habayashi Wei for many years in the direct relative army in Yingtian City.

Tang Bi blocked the quarreling sounds in his ears one by one, and his eyes were thoughtful: "How dare Your Highness know about such nonsense?"

Yu Ma frowned slightly, and turned his forehead to look at Tang Bi, whose eyes were as calm as water: "Your Highness is worth a thousand dollars, how dare we speak rashly? If the general hadn't been invited by the military report, this matter would not have happened today."

Tang Bi sneered and said, "I think it's about reason and reason, and about the laws of the Ming Dynasty. I shouldn't be arguing about this here. There is a saying in the martial arts hall: Soldiers should be the purest in the world. This general, I deeply think so."

Yu Ma's eyes were a little dazed.

In the past, he was the commander of the Shangzhiqin Army Habayashi Guard, and all he thought about was the safety of the emperor and the royal family.Now, he is the commander of the capital of Henan Province, and he has a stable situation in Henan Province in his thoughts.

I seemed to be in a hurry, as if I was ignorant, and lost my original purity.

Bang.

There was a loud noise in the Baihu Hall of the Siyamen of the Henan Provincial Commander.

Yu Ma's face was livid, and he patted the table with his thick palms.

He stared sharply at the quarreling parties in front of him: "Have you forgotten the matter of loyalty to the emperor?"

Inside the White Tiger Hall, all the generals were at a loss.

Instead, everyone carefully.

After a sound of iron armor shaking, all the generals fell to the ground on one knee.

"I will be convicted at the end."

In the White Tiger Hall, all the generals pleaded guilty, and after the sound was over, the hall was silent.

Yu Ma's face was ugly, and suddenly he felt ashamed of his battle robe and armor.

There was no sound in the hall.

Outside the hall, there was a sound of footsteps.

With a trace of doubt, Zhu Yunxi looked at Si Baihutang, the commander of the capital, with a strange expression.

He looked at Yu Ma and Tang Bi who were also sitting on top of the chair with sullen faces.

Zhu Yunxi chuckled lightly: "What's going on here, that all the generals of my Ming Dynasty are expected to kneel here? Could it be that the battle ahead is unfavorable, or that our army was defeated somewhere?"

Yu Ma and Tang Bi woke up suddenly amidst the banter, stood up abruptly, and then they went hand in hand in front of Zhu Yunxi, kneeling on the ground in unison.

"The ministers welcome His Highness the Emperor Taisun."

The two knelt in unison to welcome Zhu Yunxi.

Then, Yu Ma spoke first: "The minister eats the king's salary and fails to share the king's worries. This is the minister's dereliction of duty. The minister's crime is heavy."

Zhu Yunxi blinked, completely unaware of what happened in the previous White Tiger Hall.He looked suspiciously at Tang Bi who was also kneeling in front of him, showing a trace of doubt.

Tang Bi seemed to have sensed Zhu Yunxie's gaze, raised his head cautiously, and clenched his fists tightly: "His Royal Highness, there is a report from the Duke of Liang's army today, please send out all the troops and horses in Kaifeng City, and set up an empty city for His Royal Highness to guard." , The army and horses outside the city released the gap, and the army and horses oppressed outside, leading the rebels and rebels from various prefectures and counties to Kaifeng City to make a desperate struggle. "

Zhu Yunxi was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Zhu Gaochi, who fell behind Zhu Yunxi, glanced at the generals in the White Tiger Hall, blinked, as if thinking of something, and then closed his mouth tightly.

Before patrolling the city, Zhu Shangbing, who met Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi, snorted coldly on the spot.

"Mr. Liang is so courageous! He dared to put His Royal Highness, the emperor's grandson, in a dangerous situation, without any regard for the safety of His Royal Highness's daughter!"

Zhu Shangbing waved his arm in his robe, his face was ruthless: "This time when my son returns to Beijing, he will definitely play the impeachment of Liang Guogong for his unruly behavior, and he has no crimes against the king!"

In the White Tiger Hall, there was still silence, and with Zhu Shangbing's sharp reprimand, the atmosphere became extremely cold in an instant.

Zhu Yunxi suddenly laughed, "Have you become a bait alone?"

This is the first sentence he said.

Then, Zhu Yunxi walked lightly into the White Tiger Hall and sat on the top chair.

"Is this strategy feasible? How sure is it?"

This is his second sentence.

Yu Ma and Tang Bi had already followed Zhu Yunxie into the room, knelt on the ground and turned around.

Yu Ma immediately said, "I will swear to the death to protect His Royal Highness's daughter's body. The chaos in Henan Road, I will calm down by myself."

"The final general swears to the death to protect the body of His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun!"

All the generals roared in unison with Yu Ma, the sound seemed to shake the roof of the White Tiger Hall a few times.

But Zhu Yunxi shook his head: "Gu also walked among the Wanjun, and he said some big words, but Jiaozhidao also climbed up the city wall of the former capital of the Chen Dynasty."

"Your Highness's bravery is my great blessing."

Zhu Yunxi smiled a few times: "Where is the bravery, I am not a fairy."

The emperor's grandson's calmness exceeded the expectations of many people present.

On the other hand, Zhu Yunxi patted his palm lightly on his leg, and said softly: "Since the general thought that all the troops and horses from Kaifeng City were called out to reinforce the counter-insurgency, but in fact, he secretly kept Chen Cang and used me as a bait to lure the traitors in Henan Province. It will be collected in Kaifeng, so let’s follow this plan.”

The expressions of Yu Ma and Tang Bi changed at the same time.

Tang Bi, who had never opened his mouth all this time, immediately spoke in a deep voice: "Your Highness is the body of a daughter of gold, who is bestowed with imperial edicts and powers like your Majesty. He is under the crown prince of the Eastern Palace, where the Ming Dynasty is located. The ministers and others who guard Kaifeng are responsible for His Highness's daughter." Safety. Your Highness is safe, and Daming is safe. Even if the ministers die, they dare not let His Highness fall into danger."

Yu Ma changed from kneeling on one knee to touching the bottom with both knees, and raised his hands to slap the ground.

"Your Majesty, please reprimand Liang Guogong's military sentiments, and ask His Majesty to ask for a body of a thousand pieces of gold."

"Your Majesty, please take the body of a thousand gold as the most important thing!"

In the Baihutang, all the generals seconded the horse and asked Zhu Yunxi to dismiss Lan Yuzhao's military strategy.

With a smile on his face, Zhu Yunxi stood up under the nervous eyes of Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing.

He smiled at all the generals present, and spoke loudly.

"Da Ming is uneasy, how can Gu be safe?"

"Da Ming is uneasy, how is my family safe?"
